This is of course a little bit exaggerated. It is impossible for a mere tomb-robbing army to be so large in scale and have such high combat power.
If there really was such a powerful army, how could the Emperor of Wei not use them to unify the world, but instead let them rob tombs? That would be a waste of talent.
But since this is a fantasy world, there are indeed alternative ways of longevity in the background of the world, and the tombs here are very dangerous, it is barely understandable that the Emperor of Wei organized such an elite force.
A little regret did not affect Hu Xiuwu's mood. After dispersing the Chihu military talisman and taking it back into the Niwan Palace, he also put the remaining corpse of Zhu Jiuyin into Luofengtian.
Although it has no energy, some oil can still be squeezed out of the corpse. When the candle made of Zhu Jiuyin's snake fat is lit, the smoke can be like the brain of the snake god's incarnation, transforming into real things. However, Zhu Jiuyin's ability is weak compared to the snake god, and the things he transforms cannot exist for long. When the candle burns out, everything will disappear.
Even so, it is still a rare treasure.
The huge but shriveled snake body was placed on the central street of Fengdu. The Yellow Springs Yin servants held boning knives made of Yin Iron and sharpened their knives towards the demon snake. Some of them had already built a fire and were ready to squeeze oil.
While Huangquan Yinshi was dealing with Zhu Jiuyin, the bronze sacred tree was also crowded with people from Quanxing.
Yuan Tao was old, but his temper had not changed at all. He was still irritable and easily angered. When he faced the fate of being buried deep in the mountains, he could not control himself and yelled at Hu Xiuwu:
"Hu Xiuwu, where is the exit here?"
Hu Xiuwu pointed to the sky and said as a matter of course, "It's up there."
Yuan Tao was stunned for a moment.
Then why did we bother jumping down? What are you doing here?
After a pause, Hu Xiuwu said, "Of course, there are some down there too."
The Nine Dragons burst out with an unprecedented brightness, like gunpowder with sparks.
Xue Fan quickly grabbed Yuan Tao, who had lost his mind, and said, "Don't do this, Mr. Yuan, don't do this, Mr. Yuan, it's important to get out first."
Hu Xiuwu flicked his finger and a golden bean popped out, which landed on Yuan Tao.
Yuan Tao calmed down instantly. Although he had many dissatisfactions and complaints towards Hu Xiuwu in his heart, he just couldn't accumulate his anger. It was as if there was a hole in his heart, and all the anger was released out.
Gong Qing saw through the situation more clearly than Yuan Tao, and said calmly, "Since you, Hu Xiuwu, had a plan and exiled us here, you won't just waste our lives here."
"That's right," Hu Xiuwu said with a smile, pulling Chen Duo to sit on the bronze tree roots nearby, and said calmly, "In a while, the groundwater will flow back into this altar, and we can leave here by following the flow of water."
Gong Qing nodded, seemingly without any doubt about Hu Xiuwu's words. He sat opposite Hu Xiuwu and looked at him:
"Then don't waste this world, let's talk about it, why were we exiled here?"
The two looked calm as if they were just playing chess in a pavilion in the mountains.
The rocks and broken copper falling from all directions were nothing but the gentle breeze and drizzle.
Chapter 385 Negotiation under the Tree
Gong Qing was really brave to ask questions inside the collapsed mountain and even question the only person who knew the exit.
Yes, that's exactly the kind of person I need.
Hu Xiuwu did not feel offended. If Gong Qing did not have such a personality, he would not have looked for Gong Qing.
That’s right, it seemed that Gong Qing invited Hu Xiuwu to excavate the Jingjue Ancient City together, but in fact, Hu Xiuwu was just taking advantage of the situation and pulling them into his own plan.
Now that he had come this far, Hu Xiuwu had nothing to hide. He sat on the bronze tree root with his arms and legs spread out, looking around and listening carefully to the entire conversation between him and Gong Qing:
"It's exile, but also pioneering. You are criminals, but also pioneers. I know you have a guess in your mind."
"Yes, this is no longer our original world."
"Welcome to the other world."
After hearing Hu Xiuwu's answer, the others were all confused, with a mixture of fear and joy. Only Tu Junfang's eyes became brighter.
He knew what Hu Xiuwu had told him before about the solution to the Three Corpses.
Tu Junfang has a profound cultivation and a full understanding of his own three corpses and desires. He has experienced Hu Xiuwu's Tushita Fire and realized the missing second half of the Three Demon Sect's mental method.
But he just couldn't succeed in his practice and eliminate the three corpses in his body.
Because Tu Junfang gave up on himself when he was young and had a period of indulgence, he did too many bad things at that time and left hidden dangers.
Even if he fled to the mountains, he was always worried that someone would come to seek revenge on him.
Being too cautious and worrying too much, you cannot let go of all your thoughts and it is difficult to achieve a calm mind.
The most important thing about the Three Demon Sect's mind is the mind. Even if Tu Junfang has figured out the method, he can't do it. How can the white paper be restored to its original state after it has been smeared black?
But it's different now,
Leaving the original world is like reincarnation.
The dirty white paper was turned into pulp and recycled.
The cause and effect of the previous life came to an abrupt end.
As clean as a baby, free from worries, I will practice the method of beheading the three corpses here again, maybe I can succeed!
Ding Shimaan, who was obsessed with becoming stronger, was even more excited. If he could compete with countless powerful enemies, he would improve much faster than in peacetime.
Barron raised his eyebrows. As a British, he was very familiar with Hu Xiuwu's operations: "Hu, we are aboard your Mayflower. Do you want us to help you colonize?"
Hu Xiuwu nodded: "It's a very appropriate answer, but saying it's colonization is too narrow-minded. I want more."
Xia He had a question: "Then why don't you ask Shangqing to help you?"
After hearing this, before Hu Xiuwu could say anything, Gong Qing burst into laughter: "Isn't this obvious?"
"He wouldn't feel bad if we died!"
Hu Xiuwu smiled but said nothing, and agreed.
Every inch of new soil is borne with blood. From ancient times to the present, it has never been an easy task to open up new land. The thoughts of people born in this world are just a seed after all.
No book can describe the world completely. Where the imagination of the author cannot reach, the natural world is free to develop and grow wildly.
Even flowers of the same species will bloom differently if they grow in different environments.
Hu Xiuwu had no idea what the full picture of the world nurtured by the body of the snake god looked like.
There is a huge difference between reading and watching and being present in person. As long as outsiders intervene, no one can predict how the situation will be distorted.
Moreover, over the years, there have been so many brilliant works that it would be too slow for Hu Xiuwu to explore them one by one.
He needed a group of people who were not afraid of death, had great energy and a thriving curiosity, to open up new areas for him.
As Gong Qing said, Hu Xiuwu really didn't want his relatives and old friends to participate in this matter. Although there were huge benefits, there were also huge risks.
If you are not careful, you may die in a foreign land. Hu Xiuwu is looking for a spy to help him explore the way, not a close person who he needs to worry about and care about.
Quan Xing, this group of crazy people who were unwilling to be lonely and confused about their future caught Hu Xiuwu's attention.
If we seriously discuss cooperation with the Quanxing people, these rebellious people will definitely not cooperate honestly.
It would be better to trap them directly into the trap, put them on the ship, then drive the ship away, and burn the nautical chart after leaving the shore by thousands of miles.
It is still up to him to decide how to proceed.
Xia He frowned: "What if I want to go back?"
Not all people with Quanxing are alone like Tu Junfang, some of them still have some ties to that place.
For example, Jin Feng, and Xia He.
Hu Xiuwu looked at this Gua Gu Dao who was still connected to Zhang Lingyu and said, "Of course you can go back. You are the crew members of my Mayflower."
"As long as you pay the 'ticket' you can go back."
"what do you want."
"We can use any rare treasures, spiritual roots, and unique skills that are unique to foreign lands."
Yuan Tao calmed down and raised his eyebrows: "Are you willing to let us go back?"
It has only been over 60 years since the Jiashen Rebellion, but the tragic situation of the descendants of Jiashen is shocking.
Zhang Chulan was displaced before the age of eight. After he was eight years old, his grandfather Zhang Huaiyi died and his father Zhang Yude disappeared. He lived alone for twelve years and suffered a lot. He can be considered to have a good life among the descendants of Jiashen.
With this previous experience as a lesson, why would Hu Xiuwu let them go? If it were Yuan Tao, he would have to keep their mouths shut and kill anyone who might have leaked the secret.
"Haha, who do you think will be the first to get into trouble after you tell this secret?" Hu Xiuwu also understood the implication of Yuan Tao's words.
Hu Xiuwu's relatives all have different identities, especially his father.
Even in the court, there were people who were interested in this and wanted this ability.
You have to follow the rules, and use courtesy before force, and go to the door politely to talk first.
But who would dare to talk like this to Quan Xing, who is already a wanted criminal?
Please come into the bunker, sit high on the wide stool, and I will ask you about your ancestors for 18 generations.
"Moreover." Hu Xiuwu sneered, and sat on the twisted copper root with his sword in hand, as if sitting on a throne, finally revealing some of the majesty of a monarch.
"I've put so much effort into this, and when I return, do you think I'll still care about the little rascals?"
Xiao Su exclaimed sincerely: "My goodness, between us and him, who is the full nature?"
Hu Xiuwu said: "This world is my gift to you all. I won't ask anything from you. Anyone who wants to leave can just go to Kunlun Palace and join me in three months, and I will send him out of this world for free."
Xia He asked: "Where is the Kunlun Temple?"
Hu Xiuwu took out several sets of books that he had prepared long ago from Luo Fengtian and gave them to Ding Shiman, Tu Junfang, Gong Qing, Xia Liuqing, Baron and other people he valued among Quan Xing.
For Zhang Lingyu's sake, Hu Xiuwu also threw a bag to Xia He.
Xia Liuqing steadily caught the set of books Hu Xiuwu threw over. It was wrapped in a transparent film and was as thick as a stack of bricks, weighing more than ten pounds.
With his head raised to his eyebrows, Xia Liuqing read the name on the spine of the book: "Grave Robbers' Chronicles?"
Xue Fan woke up as if from a dream, and suddenly knocked the ground with the soul-calling flag in his hand: "Believe it! This is the Qinling Sacred Tree mentioned in the Tomb Robbers' Chronicles!"
The equally young Xiao Su had also read this book. Xue Fan recalled the scenes in the book and screamed in disbelief: "We have entered the novel?"
Chapter 386 Demanding Debt
Xue Fan was stunned and felt as if he was in a dream. He spoke nonsense in a daze:
"No wonder Hu Xiuwu is in no hurry to leave. Even with Zhu Jiuyin chasing him, Wu Xie, who is just an ordinary person, can still escape from here. Of course, you are not worried about your own safety."
Hu Xiuwu was not surprised that someone in Quan Xing had read Dao Bi. If Dao Bi had not been so popular all over the country and had so many fans, a fantasy seed would not have been condensed, and it would not have caught Hu Xiuwu's eye:
