Chapter 662: Panzhou City is in turmoil, the prince and princess enter the city
Wherever there is suffering, there must be "farmers" coming out to harvest. Li Changxiao has been traveling in the Lingtian Dynasty for a long time and has long been aware of the "farmers" organization. Now he encounters it again, and he is not surprised.
Li Changxiao explained to Zhao Qing that the farmers were a branch of the Extremely Evil Sect. They regarded millions of lives as straw and took the opportunity to harvest them, but Li Changxiao did not know what their purpose was.
He was there during the chaos in Dayu, and he was also there during the internal war in Lingtian. The Ji Evil Sect was too large, and anyone with evil intentions was a member of the Ji Evil Sect. Li Changxiao could kill one person, but he couldn't kill everyone in the world, so the Ji Evil Sect had no way to stop it.
Zhao Qing said, "The farmer... there really is an undercurrent." She sighed. If it were in the past, she would have arrested a few people and questioned them. But now she was helpless. Li Changxiao and Zhao Qing pretended to follow the farmer.
Suddenly, one person said, "Li Tianyu and Li Tianxia have already turned their attention to this place. We should take advantage of the situation to harvest and be careful not to interfere." Another person said, "Don't worry. We will act secretly and even mortals will try their best to avoid us. No one will notice."
Another person said, "You said, is our Extreme Evil Sect still the same Extreme Evil Sect as before? Why do I gradually find that the Extreme Evil Sect is not so pure anymore?"
Someone asked, "Why is it not pure?" The man replied, "My Extreme Evil Sect was supposed to be completely evil. People's hearts are evil and they are cynical about the world, which is extreme evil. But now it is divided into big altars, small altars, and main altars... From top to bottom, it has become a system."
He added: "Although the Ji E Sect is growing stronger and has the word 'Sect' in its name, Ji E should not be a sect after all. I always feel that something has changed."
Another person said, "Why think so much? My Ji Evil Sect now has the Four Symbols Altars, Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, Black Tortoise, and White Tiger. The masters of each altar are all powerful combined beings. What other forces can rival my Ji Evil Sect? We should be proud of it."
……
The people of the Extreme Evil Sect were talking in low voices, unaware that Li Changxiao and Zhao Qing were following them less than ten feet behind them. Li Changxiao frowned when he heard what they were saying, as he had never thought that the Extreme Evil Sect had grown to this extent.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is the largest force in the world. Even in the past, how many forces could have four combined Buddhas coexisting? At the level of combination, they are already people of heaven and earth. How great is the luck they have? Moreover, the combination has completely integrated their own way into their body. If it is not the most prosperous sect, there is no way to accommodate a few combined Buddhas.
He thought of the strong man Xiao Zhen met on the day of his death. He must be one of the four altar masters of Xuanwu, Suzaku, Baihu and Qinglong.
Li Changxiao couldn't help thinking that the Ji'e Sect was too complicated, but fortunately, he finally figured it out.
……
Li Changxiao secretly killed the Jie clan member, and the Qingping sword lightly passed through, leaving no corpse behind. Now, because of the war in Panzhou City, the people in the city had already fled, leaving only the old man over 70 years old.
Because the old man was weak and could not endure the long journey, he would definitely die in a foreign land, so he chose to stay in the city. The big city was quite desolate and could only barely sustain life.
Li Tianyu and Li Tianxia had to fight for fourteen important county cities, and Panzhou City was one of them. In fact, a few months ago, Panzhou City had already been owned by Li Tianxia, and he had sent a large number of troops to guard it. Li Tianyu attacked with all his strength and successfully captured it. Li Tianxia was extremely angry about losing the big city, and immediately reorganized his forces to take back Panzhou City.
This went on and on, and in the end, neither side got any good results. The soldiers had fought to the point of exhaustion, and suddenly they all withdrew their troops. This brought a moment of peace to the city, but although it was peaceful, it was also filled with a dead atmosphere.
Nine out of ten houses in the city are empty. At night, there is silence, which makes people tremble. Zhao Qing said, "I thought there were many injured people here, and you wanted to come here for treatment. Now it seems that there are more dead than injured people. Why did you come to this city?"
It turned out that the two of them traveled to Lingtian to stay away from war-torn areas, because the battle between the two princes was actually a clash of national destiny. Although Li Changxiao had the ability to quell a war in an instant, he just couldn't.
Suddenly, wars broke out and thousands of lives were lost. Li Changxiao was unable to treat them. He felt upset when he saw it, so he decided not to see it. Li Changxiao simply stayed away from the war-torn areas and traveled around, and he was able to treat many wounded people.
Originally, they were traveling aimlessly, but recently, Li Changxiao has been deliberately leaning in a certain direction. Now that he has arrived in Panzhou City, where the winds and clouds have gathered, it is indeed an unusual move. Zhao Qing is straightforward, but not stupid, so it is hard to tell that Li Changxiao came here on purpose.
But Li Changxiao didn't answer, he just smiled and shook his head. Keeping the secret, Zhao Qing asked angrily, "You bully me again?" Normally, if she just did this, Li Changxiao would immediately explain that he would never dare to bully Zhao Xianchang. But this time, Li Changxiao still didn't answer, Zhao Qing had no choice but to turn her head away and stop asking.
The two of them found an inn to stay in, and during the day, they set up a small medical shop in the city. At dusk, an old man came to seek medical treatment. All the old man's descendants had left, and he was left alone in the city with no one to take care of him. He was very miserable.
He had a bad back, and most of the doctors were closed, and the one that remained was very expensive. He saw Li Changxiao on the road, so he came to try his luck. Li Changxiao gave him a few injections, and the old man's back was healed.
Having only treated one patient in one day and not making any money yet, Li Changxiao sighed softly and looked to the west. He and Zhao Qing closed the stall and returned to the inn. The next day, the two opened the stall as usual. On this day, there were many more people seeking medical treatment, probably because the news had spread.
But they are all old and helpless. Zhao Qing couldn't help thinking: "Now that I have become a mortal, I will always grow old. Changxiao will eventually leave, and in the end I will also be old and helpless." Thinking of this, he suddenly felt sad and cherished the present time even more.
But Li Changxiao was absent-minded, as if he was waiting for something. A few days passed like this. One morning, Li Changxiao had just set up his stall and put up the medical flag with the words "Miraculous Hands Bring Back Spring" when he felt the earth shaking, as if thousands of troops were approaching.
Not a moment.
A group of people came from the East City Gate, and at the same time, a group of people also came from the West City Gate. Both groups went towards the most luxurious restaurant in Panzhou City.
The two groups of people, led by Li Tianyu in the east and Li Tianxia in the west, were surrounded by heavy troops, but no major battle took place. Instead, they entered the city to meet each other, which was really strange.
