The Dao dies but I live on, the spiritual energy dries up but I remain evergreen

It’s all a dream, and spring will come back to the world.

Flowers bloom and fall, and several years pass. When you open your eyes, the world has changed a lot.

The shortage of grain, minerals, salt and iron, coupled with occasional frictions on the border, was finally ignited by a fuse, and the war broke out over three dynasties.

It's adding to the chaos.

It is better to practice a few skills than to read.

The once stable and prosperous Zhaoyu Town may have run out of luck and was ultimately unable to suppress its bad luck.

After the three dynasties of war, a group of deserters fled to this place and burned, killed and looted without mercy.

What they did was outrageous to both humans and gods, because the Lingtian Dynasty had only one word to deal with deserters, and that was killing.

Since it is a capital crime, there is no need to worry about it.

There were about ten deserters in that team, most of whom were cooks and other soldiers with relatively weak combat effectiveness on the battlefield. However, that did not prevent them from acting arrogantly here.

These dozen people had seen blood and were ruthless. When they fled, they also took away several blood-stained spears as weapons. Their leader was even luckier and picked up a general's damaged armor!

On a dark and windy night, they sneaked into Zhaoyu Town, burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of atrocities. When they left, they also abducted several pretty girls.

The war was intense at the front, and almost all the constables and young and middle-aged men in the town went to the front line. After the mayor learned the news, he barely raised a team of more than 30 people.

A kitchen knife was tied to the front of the wooden stick.

Later, they followed the traces to the outside of the town, but found that the deserters did not go far. Instead, they lit a bonfire in a temple and feasted on the food they had just looted.

The faint sound of a woman crying could be heard from inside.

The team of more than 30 people was furious and rushed over angrily, but after all, they had not received any training, and their hands holding the "spears" made of bamboo poles and kitchen knives were shaking slightly.

I thought that with the advantage of numbers, we would be able to scare away the deserters.

The leader of the deserters was also a ruthless character. Although his armor was damaged, it still gave people an indescribable sense of oppression when worn on him.

Now that he was well-fed and fully clothed, he was full of energy. Seeing that the only fighting force left in the town was this kind of people, he sneered. Instead of running away, he took a step forward and roared loudly.

He has a powerful voice.

This roar frightened more than 30 people in the town and made them take several steps back, causing the deserters to laugh and sneer at him.

A deserter who was born a leper whistled arrogantly and grabbed a little girl and touched her all over.

The girl cried for help.

On this side of the town, a middle-aged man couldn't bear it any longer and wanted to fire the first shot. He couldn't let these deserters look down on him.

Unexpectedly, after rushing out two steps, the leader of the deserters was quick-witted and stabbed with a spear!

It pierced his chest directly.

Just at this moment, the team that the town had organized with great difficulty was on the verge of collapse.

The will to fight was completely stifled.

Then, amid the mockery of the deserters and the woman's cries for help, he was so frightened that he hurriedly fled back to the town.

The deserters looked at their backs and mocked them mercilessly, calling them a bunch of cowards.

However, when they said this, they had completely forgotten that they had also fled from the battlefield in a panic.

After returning to the town, the mayor was so ashamed that he developed a high fever the next day. The fever lasted for three days. He always said that he could hear a woman crying in the middle of the night. Finally, he died with hatred in his heart.

The mayor's son studied for a few years and passed the imperial examination to become a scholar. He was exempted from military service because of his honor. Later, when the world became increasingly chaotic, he learned a few tricks from some wandering people. When the mayor died, he was the only one who could take over.

The group of deserters should have left after looting, but after the fight that day, they realized that Zhaoyu Town was a soft persimmon, so the leader of the deserters gave up the idea of ​​leaving.

If you plan to become a bandit, build a stronghold here!

A deserter who had learned some feng shui and physiognomy had his eyes light up when he heard this. He immediately flattered him and said, "Boss, you have the potential to be the hero in troubled times."

He looked around and finally chose a hill, which had a wide view and was a good place for Feng Shui.

This is the most suitable place to copy.

Several years passed.

This bandit's plug was actually made for them.

They accepted deserters, desperadoes, etc., and the number of people gradually increased from more than ten to more than fifty.

But the town of Zhaoyu was in a difficult situation. Faced with the bandits coming down the mountain, they had no chance to fight back at all.

Some wealthy merchants in the town have surrendered to the bandits and voluntarily handed over a certain amount of food and silver every month.

A few more years passed.

The once prosperous town is gone forever.

Even the "Zhaoyu Stone" was snatched away by the bandits and thrown into the river.

The beautiful proprietress of the tailor shop was also captured and taken to the mountain early to serve as a concubine.

There was a rumor in the town that the woman could not bear the humiliation and tried to escape several times, but was finally caught, tied to a huge rock, and thrown directly into the river.

The people in the small town were shocked and frightened, to the point where they turned pale at the mere mention of bandits.

time flies.

The current mayor has sold off all his belongings.

We must fight to the death with the bandits.

He recruited some friends from the underworld to form an anti-bandit team. The number of people was not large, but some of them were very good in kung fu. Not only did they develop internal strength, they were also proficient in marksmanship. They were well-known chivalrous men in the underworld.

The anti-bandit operation has begun.

A group of people fought with bandits. Thanks to the high martial arts skills of several martial artists, although they were outnumbered by the bandits, they still had the upper hand.

But soon, something unexpected happened.

The bandit leader took off his armor, picked up a machete, and started playing with it.

He was very aggressive and skilled with a sword, and his martial arts skills were even better than that of the gangster.

A few times back and forth.

The hero Zhou, who was famous in the martial arts world and was known as the master of one hero, two swords and three fists, was actually stabbed to the point of bleeding.

His fiancée, a girl from the Eling Sect who came with him, cried out in disbelief.

No one knew where this bandit learned his swordsmanship, but it was very strange and tricky, as if he was teasing the knight named Zhou, and he had no idea how to take his life.

The woman from the Erling Sect could no longer sit still and ran to help. The two of them fought the enemy at the same time, but were still no match.

It turns out that this bandit leader had had some fortuitous encounters in recent years, and his sword skills had improved so much that even if he entered the underworld, he would be able to establish his own sect.

Just when several people were fighting fiercely.

The sound of swords clashing could be heard underground.

Woke up a sleeping man.

He slowly opened his eyes.

At this moment, the situation changed drastically.

There was a muffled thunder in the sky.

It took eight years.

Late Nascent Soul Stage...

become!
