Am I the only one who didn't ascend?

Chapter 360 The crime of having a jade

Wang Luo was not used to being sentimental, and the pain in his heart only lasted a trivial moment.

Then, he focused on this memory because it must contain something crucial.

The foreshadowing of this memory may be long, but Wang Luo would rather the foreshadowing can go on indefinitely...

At the same time, Lu Zhiyao and Saint Yi Yi were chatting and laughing softly in the Gangfeng layer high in the sky, looking at Gangfeng as if they were taking nothing.

Through the conversation between the two people, Wang Luo quickly clarified the background of this memory.

Today is the 53rd year of the New Immortal Calendar, a year that literally means everything is waiting for things to be done. Although the Immortal Alliance has stabilized the civilized territory with the eight-sided desolation barrier, the territories are not completely connected, and desolation often occurs at the borders. Internally and externally, even some Dinghuang cities that are slightly weakly defended are often at risk of being breached. The Ning Yuan Diagram, regarded as the treasure of the Immortal Alliance by later generations, was actually torn and repaired...

In this era, the land of the Immortal Alliance is at war almost everywhere, and it is by no means peaceful. A person who was complaining to you about the weather and discussing prices on the street two days ago was suddenly slapped off by a wild beast that broke into the city this morning, and his brains were spilled all over your pants... This kind of situation happens almost every day, every day It happens every moment on the land of Xianmeng.

Such a troubled time is almost an unimaginable purgatory for people living in the prosperous age of 1200 in the New Immortal Calendar.

But people born in troubled times have long taken everything for granted - no matter how chaotic it is, can it survive the decades when the catastrophe comes and the way of heaven changes? If a neighbor dies, then die. Who hasn’t had someone die in their home? If the liver and brain are stained, can't it just be rinsed with water? Otherwise, can we still move?

Therefore, it is not difficult to imagine what kind of characteristics people who grow up in these troubled times will have. At best, it sounds independent and martial; at worst, it means lawlessness.

And what Saintess Taiqing encountered was such a group of lawless people.

-

A few days ago, the saint Yi Yi, who was wandering in the hills of the Northern Territory, which was still not considered vast at the time, was passing through a newly built small village in the upper reaches of the Baihe River when she happened to encounter an attack by a wild beast.

Although there were cultivators stationed in the village with swords, as well as desolation pillars distributed by sects in nearby cities, they could not withstand the attacks of numerous desolate beasts, and the pillars were about to be shattered and all lives lost.

The saint then came to help at the right time, teleporting the besieging wild beasts one by one to the ashes of the Gangfeng layer and being blown away, thus saving the whole village. After that, she didn't stay much, and left in a hurry without even showing her back to the villagers.

The villagers had no time to thank their benefactor, which was a great pity. But after escaping from death, there are still many things to do: immediately report the warning of wild beast attacks to surrounding cities, send personnel to treat injured villagers, and repair the desolate pillars that are on the verge of collapse. For a moment, he naturally didn't care to chase after the figure who couldn't catch up at all.

However, after the urgent matters are properly handled, the villagers will have enough time to think about such a problem.

Why did the savior leave in such a hurry?

Is it because I have something urgent and can't spare time to socialize? Or is it because you are used to being a loner and are impatient to interact with ordinary people?

Or is there some invisible secret in him? Especially when people later used the only remaining water mirror in the village to recreate the scene of the benefactor destroying the wild beasts, some people in the village were surprised to find that when she raised her hands and feet, she actually smelled of desolation. !

Of course, most people cannot tell how accurate this surprising discovery is.

In the 53rd year of the New Immortal Calendar, the popularity of the Immortal Way was far less than that of later generations, and the benefits of the Great Law had not yet penetrated deeply into the Immortal Alliance. Therefore, even the monks in the foundation-building stage are almost one of the best. This small village in the upper reaches of the Baihe River was built in a part of the city that was not fully covered by the sect. It had some pioneering attributes, so the sect assigned two young people in the foundation building period to accompany it. Although these two people are not very strong, they can at least hold the barren pillars stable and make good use of the various magic materials issued by the sect to help the villagers settle down smoothly in troubled times.

Even if they are attacked by unbeatable wild beasts, they can at least have time to send a warning message back to the city and notify people with strong enough cultivation to come over... to collect everyone's corpses.

But this time, one of them boldly put forward his own opinion in the review afterwards.

"That mysterious woman clearly smells of desolation... My biological parents died at the hands of the desolate demons. I will never forget their smell even until I die! If you don't believe me, seniors, please take a look at this The records in the water mirror can also be seen!"

Although objectively speaking, the image left by the water mirror in the village is blurry, and it does not capture any smell or real energy fluctuations, and does not have the ability to identify desolation, but...

Since this young man spoke so impassioned and decisively, not to mention the villagers present, even Master Jin Dan, who received the police call afterwards and came to support, could not help but believe his statement.

But then, the thing became that a wild girl passed through the village, drove away many wild beasts, and saved hundreds of lives... It obviously didn't make sense.

How could the wild girl save someone?

Then there is only one explanation left.

"...Those desolate beasts must have been driven by the desolate woman!" The young man who put forward the hypothesis vowed, "I can clearly see that those desolate beasts came with great force, but after the desolate woman appeared, they suddenly disappeared. There is no trace, not to mention the body, not even a drop of blood has been shed. So she just used a blinding method to hide the wild beast elsewhere!"

As for why the wild girl went to so much trouble to let go of the village that was easily conquered, she deliberately used deception to disguise herself as the village's savior. She didn't expect anything in return after disguising herself, and just walked away...

"This is obviously pretending to be fishing. To be honest, there are only a hundred or so people in our village, most of whom are ordinary people. Only five people started to draw Qi. Even if they are all used to feed wild beasts, they are still called It's not just refined food! But the Wangcheng Sect, which is more than a hundred miles away from the village, has the Fusion Ancestor in charge, and there are dozens of masters who can transform into gods and spirits! If we can use this village as bait, we can catch those with higher realms. The monk is also pretending to be a chivalrous person, so that when those masters lose their guard, she can take the opportunity to sneak attack and have a feast!"

As for why...

The questions below are no longer important. Because even if you can't answer it now, you can wait until you catch the wild girl and interrogate her slowly and let her answer it herself.

The surviving young people in the village undoubtedly put forward a very strong hypothesis. As for desolation, even if it is just a hypothesis, as long as the force is sufficient, the person being questioned needs to prove his or her innocence.

After all, in this day and age, forcing people to prove their innocence is a hugely profitable business!
