Chapter 441 Knife Clan, Knife Crystal ([-]rd update!)

Under the blood-red sunset, an old man is carrying a young child on his back, with a kind smile on his face, combined with the mountain of corpses that can't be seen at the back, forming a strong visual shock!

But at this time, no one appreciates this scenery. Those who can come here are the bottom of the society. They worry about their livelihood and don't have so much time to lament.

"Old man Mu, look at your smile, you have gained a lot today. We have been busy here for a long time. It is not too much to pay the toll."

The three of them came out from behind a row of withered trees, and stopped in front of the old man. One of them had a hideous wound on his face, and his entire face was split in half.

A palm-wide sharp knife was held upside down, shining coldly.

"You third, what do you want to do!"

The old man suddenly became nervous, put the little girl down, and asked nervously with a hoe in his hand.

There were a few hard pancakes next to the little girl in the back basket, and the little girl looked at them curiously.

"Simple, just pay a silver crystal for the toll."

With a smile on Yuli's face, matching that terrifying face, the little girl didn't even cry when she saw the mountain of corpses, but now she pursed her mouth and began to cry.

"I watched you grow up. Back then, your family had no food. It was me! It was I who distributed my food to your family to help you tide over the difficulties!"

The old man pointed to Yuli and said, heartbroken.

What a well-behaved child when he was young, but he became a bully in the village when he grew up. He had heard that this child had a bad reputation outside, but Mu Qing never thought that he would actually attack him.

"Old man, am I begging you to give me food? Besides, I just remember your great kindness, so I accept two grains from others, but I only accept one grain from you."

Yuli said angrily, and didn't feel that there was anything wrong at all.

"you you!"

Mu Qing was trembling with anger, pointing at Yuli and talking for a long time, but only uttered these two words.

"Old man, don't get too excited, just hang up if you can't get up in one breath."

"Haha, big brother, don't gossip with him, it's shameless to give it to you, if you don't give it to us, then we will get it ourselves!"

The other two also had smiles on their faces and said one after another.

The three came from two villages, and they were all rascals in their respective villages. At first they were just making small troubles, but now they became more and more courageous. They decided to join forces and come here to rob.

And the laws of the empire have no effect here. No matter how serious the crime is committed here, as long as it does not kill the army, it is innocent. This is the junction with another alien race.

The three of them have tasted the sweetness, and they are out of control. The three of them are very cautious, and they will choose soft persimmons every time before they make a move. With this bit of fist and kick, when I meet a real practitioner, even a half-baked practitioner is enough to beat him. Kill everyone.

"I will not hand over the knife crystal unless I die!"

Holding the hoe, the old man looked determined. It was very difficult to find the knife crystals. He often couldn’t find a single one in ten days and half a month. The family had run out of food, and the knife crystals on his body were the life of his family!
"Pfft!"

"Old stuff that doesn't know good and bad!"

The tip of a butcher's knife protruded from the old man's chest, staining the old man's clothes red. Behind the knife stood a young man with a pockmarked face.

The three of them found the knife crystal the size of a grain of rice from the old man's arms, cursed a few words inwardly, to the effect that it was only one grain, and then left cursing.

The little girl was left crying on top of the old man. There were several scavenging eagles circling in the sky, and the brave ones had already landed. They stood on the treetops, staring sternly at the big meal that was about to begin below with their sharp eyes.

"Let's go, we earned a total of 28 knife crystals during this trip, so we don't need to dig it up stupidly, we just need to pick the peaches at the end."

With a smile on his face, Yuli greeted the two of them and walked back.

"Brother Yingming, these people have been digging for so long, they didn't make wedding dresses for us in the end."

The pockmarked young man said with a smile, wiping the knife in his hand.

"But let's go back to the city quickly. I heard that the empire is preparing to fight the sword clan recently."

Another young man was a little worried.

"Hasn't it been 20 years since you have used a weapon? Why are you going to war again?"

The pockmarked young man asked puzzledly.

"The Knife Clan is the sheep raised by the empire. Twenty years have passed, and the wool that was sheared last time by the Knife Clan has almost grown back. It's time to shear the sheep."

Yuli sneered and said, relying on the size and strength of the empire, the sword clan can be destroyed with a flick of a finger.

However, the knife crystal produced by the knife clan is very popular in the empire. Of course, the sheep cannot be killed directly, but it is still possible to shear the sheep.

On the other hand, this is called a junction, but the empire didn’t pay much attention to it. The soldiers stationed here are all recruits, led by a small number of veterans, which is equivalent to a training ground!

After the sheep shearing is over, the soldiers who have not been kicked to death by the sheep will be transferred to a more powerful and cruel battlefield.

And this sword clan is private property, whoever dares to hunt and kill the sword clan privately during the cultivation period will usher in the wrath of the empire!

This place is considered to be in the deep part of the plain. It used to be a gigantic canyon, but for tens of thousands of years, it has already been filled with corpses of soldiers from both sides.

And as the corpses were dumped in the canyon, these sword tribes produced knife crystals. When cleaning the battlefield, the army would first remove the knife crystals, but it was impossible to clean them all, and there would always be some omissions.

And the people here are all moving in the direction of dumping the corpses, and it takes about two days to walk from here to the checkpoint for ordinary people.

The three subconsciously speeded up and walked towards the checkpoint.

"Boom!"

"Dong dong!"

The ground suddenly trembled, accompanied by monstrous drums!
The faces of the three turned pale, this is not an earthquake, this is a large-scale army march!

The towering old trees in the back had no leaves, as if they were dead, and the sky darkened. Looking back, the old trees seemed to come alive, and the demons danced wildly.

Big trees fell one after another, and the faces of the three of Yuli were full of panic. Hundreds of purple giant beasts as high as ten feet high appeared, and their bodies were like amethyst, exuding terrifying power.

"Advanced knife clan! Escape!"

The three of them turned around and fled. The Dao Clan approached so close to the checkpoint without a sound. Before, I and others didn't notice it at all. I didn't hear the sound until I and others saw the Dao Clan!
"This is a very strange thing, a large-scale march, coupled with the movement made by such a huge sword clan, even if it is far away, I and others can find it!

Now, when these sword clans were less than a thousand meters away from me and others, I and others heard a huge sound, as if the sound was blocked before. "

At this time, Yuli suddenly felt as if he had opened his mind. When he was running away, he was able to think of so many things.
