Quick Travel: Card Destroyer

Chapter 26 The Trial of Immortality (26)

Both Xichuan Town and Shuangqing Town have a river passing through them, but they are not the same river.If someone deliberately compared the two towns, they would find that the environments on the two sides are completely different.

It is said that the cotton textile industry in Xichuan Town is developed. There are actually many dyeing workshops here. When Fu Cangzhao led a small team here, he did not see any pollution. The wastewater discharged from each factory must be treated in advance before it is allowed to be discharged. into the river.

Xichuan Town started doing this decades ago and continues to do so today. Many people remember that there is a clear river in the town since they were children, and it has remained consistent for decades.

Wearing plain clothes, they looked around curiously. Scenes of women shouting and hawking could be seen everywhere. There were also brand-new cloths folded together. They were all high-quality cloths. Fu Cangzhao's eyes almost went straight when he saw them!

When asked occasionally, they all praised the mayor, saying that he was far-sighted, regulated sewage discharge in advance, and vigorously developed women's education, so that after the monster of rules ransacked the town, the remaining women could take their place in time.

"Is the mayor still alive?"

"There are special pullers to help it pull away the rule monsters."

"..." Fu Cangzhao glanced at the mayor's mansion that the women were pointing at and said nothing.

She and Jiyue looked at each other, and both could read the sarcasm in the other's eyes.

When a male mayor is effective in governance, there is often a woman behind him to support him.

Therefore, there is probably a hidden mayor's wife in the male mayor's house, and it is very likely that she is the one who really thinks about how to manage the town.

At night, when the moon was dark and the wind was high, Fu Cangzhao and Ji Yue put on black clothes and cloaks, took off in the night sky, and shuttled past the rooftops of houses. Their target was the mayor's mansion!

Obviously, if you want to control Xichuan Town, you must kill the mayor!
When they arrived at the mayor's residence, Fu Cangzhao was about to kick down the door, but Ji Yue grabbed her by the back of the neck and forcibly pulled her back.

"Do you think I'm a cat?" Fu Cangzhao rubbed the sore flesh on the back of his neck and muttered dissatisfiedly.

Jiyue glanced at her and thought, isn't it?Of course, she wouldn't say it outright, because Fu Cangzhao would definitely get angry on the spot, and their plan of trying so hard to hide their traces would be in vain.

We have to do business.

The two decided to go to the house to uncover the tiles, cut a small opening in the roof, and quietly fell into the room.

They had investigated beforehand and knew that this room was empty, so it was a good entry point.

But the mayor's mansion tonight seemed a little different.

Fu Cangzhao put his ear against the door and eavesdropped. There were faint sounds of sharp objects piercing flesh, the sounds of two people wrestling with each other, plates being thrown, yelling, and...

"Come right up!" Jiyue decisively pulled Fu Cangzhao away. Frost condensed in his hands, and in the blink of an eye the entire mahogany room door froze!
Although he was dissatisfied with Ji Yue's way of pulling the back of his neck, Fu Cangzhao still worked honestly and kicked the wooden door casually. The cold pieces of wood flew in all directions, revealing a complete conflict scene.

A disheveled, angry woman with eyes split open, barely grasped a kitchen knife in her hand. Even though she was almost exhausted, she still stabbed the man in front of her with determination, one after another, trying to escape.

The man had a big belly and looked like he was living a good life. He was wearing fine silk clothes, but at this moment, he was cut to pieces with a kitchen knife and stained beyond recognition with the gurgling blood.It screamed in terror while moving its scarred body, trying to move out of the woman's attack range.

The woman's aura is getting weaker and weaker, but the movements of her hands are becoming more and more fierce, as if she knows that she will not live long, and wants to burn all the remaining vitality, even if it is overdrawn, the man will definitely be left behind!

Finally, facing the desperate look in the man's eyes, the woman stood upright, raised the knife in her hand, and stabbed it steadily into the man's neck!

Only then did Fu Cangzhao move his steps, carefully pick up the woman, and use his spiritual power to penetrate her meridians.She wanted to heal the woman's wounds, but found that this body, which didn't look old yet, was already decaying on the inside!
"The ground..." The woman lay in Fu Cangzhao's arms and fell into a coma for a while. She just regained consciousness and spat out the words with force.

"basement……"

"We all heard it," Fu Cangzhao kissed the woman's cheek regardless of the blood and dirt, and whispered in her ear, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."

The woman seemed to want to thank her, but she couldn't help but exhale "ho ho". The air came in less and out more. She had to widen her eyes and raised her bony hand. Maybe her original intention was to touch Fu Cangzhao's face, but in the end she could only force it out. Put it on the edge of a dark red scarf.

Fu Cangzhao pulled off the scarf with one hand and covered the woman: "It's very warm."

There was finally a blush on the woman's face, and then she closed her eyes peacefully.

She will never wake up again.

"This person has accumulated a lot of toxins in his body. It doesn't happen in a day or two." Ji Yue glanced at Fu Cangzhao and said coldly, then turned and headed to the basement.

Not long after, she carried a woman and returned to the living room where Fu Cangzhao was. When the woman saw the middle-aged woman who was lifeless in Fu Cangzhao's arms, she broke free from Jiyue's clutches and shouted "Mother" , then rushed over and knelt beside him.

Although the daughter has a sallow face and thin muscles, her eyes are bright and bright. Even though she is covered with a layer of mist, she can't hide her sharpness.It's hard to guess what she went through in the basement from her appearance, but both Fu Cangzhao and Ji Yue believe that no matter how much hardship they suffer, they can't wear away her edge.Ji Yue promptly reminded: "Your mother entrusted you to us."

The daughter's body was shaken, her eyes were filled with tears, her lips were pursed, and she could not calm down for a long time.

After a long time, she felt that she was no longer feeling so uncomfortable, and then she told the two of them the whole story.

Her name is Zhan Ziwei. She only remembers that she took her mother's surname, but she doesn't remember her mother's name.

As the mayor's wife, my mother always advises my father behind the scenes. When my father wants to eat, drink and have fun, my mother keeps admonishing him until he compromises.

Later, my mother gradually felt that something was not right - she was the one who used her brains to maintain people's livelihood, she was the one who had the foresight to protect the environment, and she was the one who advised the male mayor not to indulge in wine and meat, but why did no one know her name?
My father was deeply loved by the townspeople, and my mother couldn't even leave a single word in the history books - she was hidden by men.

The birth of Zhan Ziwei undoubtedly made the already unharmonious family atmosphere even worse.As a daughter, she is naturally rebellious and loves military art and power. She is not as quiet as ordinary daughters.She refused to accept the late appointment arranged by her father, and showed no pretense when facing several young men specially arranged by her father. She tried to escape several times but failed, and was finally locked in the basement and imprisoned.

The mother wanted to save her, only to discover that her daily diet contained a chronic poison. Now that the poison had accumulated to a certain amount, an explosion was imminent.Only then did she finally see clearly her husband's true face - first of all, the only people who could unknowingly let her eat poison were people close to her. Her daughter had a deep relationship with her and could not do such immoral things. She didn't believe it was not the person next to her.

Another reason is the rules monster.

Hearing that regular monsters were raging in the last five realms that had not been invaded by the demon world, the male mayor was panicked, so he went behind his mother's back to train a special type of monks. They would be served by women in their daily lives, specializing in speed and endurance, and requiring more than monsters. He can run very fast, but his only function is to help high-level officials absorb aggro and pull him to a safe area when the town is attacked.

Just one night not long ago, regular monsters attacked Xichuan Town.This night, the method of absorbing hatred that had always been successful in the past no longer seemed applicable. The monster's five senses, speed and strength were much higher than the records. Several monks responsible for pulling away the monsters died, and the residents of the town, except for the male mayor All the men were eaten.

Fortunately, there was a clever male cultivator who led the regular monsters to the east of Kongxi Realm. There was an abandoned teleportation array there that could randomly transfer monsters to other realms.

Witnessing the tragedy in the entire town with her own eyes, and thinking of her daughter who was still in confinement in the basement, the mayor's wife was willing to risk everything. No matter what, she had to kill the man in front of her first!
Perhaps the mother and daughter had the same mind. Zhan Ziwei only needed to hear Ji Yue say, "Your mother entrusted you to us" to understand her mother's thoughts.

Regardless of whether Xichuan Town is in the hands of the family or not, it is better to leave it to a woman than to a man.

With the death of the male mayor, there are now only women left in Xichuan Town.

The next day, Zhan Ziwei came forward to thank the two heroes Fu Cangzhao and Jiyue for saving her and telling the truth to the public.

Upon hearing that even the old mayor's wife had suffered from men, the women complained one after another.Only then did Zhan Ziwei realize that it turned out that everyone had more or less similar experiences. Their husbands took away their own research results and claimed that they were men's achievements.

Soon, Xichuan Town came under the jurisdiction of the Xingyue Sect. A small group of Xingyue Sect troops brought from Jiayuan Town took over control, followed Liu Yinghua's arrangements, and entered the logistics department.

Zhan Ziwei herself became the logistics minister in one fell swoop because of her outstanding handling skills during the handover process, and continued to manage Xichuan Town - of course, this is a story for another day.

According to the map given by Zhan Ziwei, Fu Cangzhao and Ji Yue set off and followed the official road to Shuangqing Town. This time they decided not to take anyone else with them, saving manpower and reducing trouble.

One day Jiyue met Fu Cangzhao to play chess, and Liu Yinghua also became interested in military matters. Jiyue threw a few military books to her, and she actually let her chew them all in a few days!

So there is another game form - sandbox game.

Both sides choose a certain number of different types of troops, and the first one to kill the enemy general wins.At first, Ji Yue was victorious in every battle and could play around with Liu Yinghua using any small tricks. However, after ten and a half days, Ji Yue started to struggle, forcing Ji Yue to show her true skills.

In addition, some people started to show their talents after a month of training, and the two top combatants reached an agreement after a brief discussion.

——Let them give it a try!
If Yang Tianzong sends someone over, show them the results of their cultivation!
Before you know it, half a year has passed. Because the regular monsters were led to other realms, Kongxi Realm can finally take a breather and rest for a while.

Shopkeeper Bai is in Renxing City, and he is worried about the array that others cannot understand.Beads of sweat beaded on his forehead, and his delicate brows were knitted together, possibly knotting up in a second.

It clearly sensed that there was a new monk, but in the past half year or so, it had never determined the specific location of this new friend!

There are only a few explanations for this situation: First, the opponent's strength is unfathomable. Shopkeeper Bai first ruled out this conclusion. The monks who ascended from the outside world are a little weaker than the local monks in Kongxi Realm. Their strength may have increased after adapting. , but it should not be so strong that it cannot be detected.

Second, the other party was well prepared and used special means to block Shopkeeper Bai's detection.If this is the case, it means trouble is coming, at least for Kong Xijie.

When shopkeeper Bai was having a headache about how to deal with the problem, the west corner of the array suddenly flashed.

"Do you have the coordinates?" Shopkeeper Bai thought he was having fireworks and rubbed his eyes, "Shuangqing Town?"

"Why would a monk fall in love with a place like Shuangqing Town?"

　Kawen, written like a running account...
