These words were said by Zhang Zongchang when he was in Wuhu.
Judging from the time, it was probably less than a hundred years ago.
It turns out that the seeds of the Miao people's hatred for the Central Plains people were planted a hundred years ago, but they have only come to fruition now.
Generations of hatred, Miao and Central Plains people attack and kill each other. It is estimated that even the land and mountain gods cannot clearly see how much love and hatred there is between them, but no matter how stupid Qi Zhen is, he still knows this. The matter must be an inextricable knot.
Just like China was oppressed and invaded by foreign powers in modern times, it may also take several generations or even longer to digest the hatred between each other.
As for now...
Now the Miao people have just found a way to strengthen themselves through Shushan. They are still in the process of creating hatred. Only if one of them completely wins, this hatred will slowly dissipate.
Qi Zhen even felt a little pity for these Miao people.
Originally living aloof from the world in these mountains, not causing trouble or causing trouble, a strong neighbor next door wanted to invade his home because he wanted to prove his strength. The key is like modern warfare. , it’s just to plunder resources or achieve some political goal, but it’s just for the ridiculous reason of wanting to leave a name in history for selfish purposes.
I am not as well-armed as this neighbor, nor as wealthy as him, but in order to protect my homeland, I can only find ways to use the geographical location and the spirit of not being afraid of death to deal with the opponent, but it is not a problem to continue like this. I desperately want to find a place where I can fight Ways to be as strong as your neighbor.
The result was finally found, but this method is actually just a disguised use by others. It is impossible to say that the Miao people are stupid. If they still choose to accept this method, it can only be said to be an extremely helpless way. Drink poison to quench your thirst.
Qi Zhen's mentality changed, and she became embarrassed about how to deal with this Miao man.
Originally, he thought very simply. First, there was the matter of Mulberry Snake, and second, there was the matter of the Well of Gods and Demons. In Qi Zhen's imagination, these Miao people were playing the role of the simple people in the game Legend of Sword and Fairy One. The villains, even those who were the instigators of the Well of Gods and Demons incident, could be killed at most.
However, after listening to the other party's story, it was difficult for Qi Zhen to act like this with peace of mind. As the saying goes, if the name is not right, the words will not go smoothly, and if the words are not right, the things will be difficult to achieve. As expected, Qi Zhen still can't escape the sloppy formality.
Just like the hesitation in the choice of Yuemeng Mountain, it is also like the lack of smoothness in dealing with the bandits in Taihu Lake, even in Wuhu, Dabie Mountains, and Chaohu. The same is true for everything.
But as far as this matter is concerned, Qi Zhen does feel a little overwhelmed.
Mainly because there are too many camps. If the dividing line between good and evil is unclear, it will be difficult for Qi Zhen to find a truly clear clue in the entire incident to determine her own behavior pattern.
One side is a heinous and powerful bad guy, and the other side is an upright and kind-hearted but weak good guy. This situation is best handled. It is nothing more than punishing evil and promoting good, and everyone is happy.
But how can things in this world be so divided into good and bad?
Is it wrong for the Miao people to refine the demonic energy from monsters to strengthen themselves in order to resist the invasion of the Central Plains people? It seems there is none.
The Central Plains court must have made a mistake a hundred years ago. The mistake was the emperor's militarism. But now, a hundred years later, it is difficult to find the wrongdoer and the creditor.
To say that those people in Shushan who taught the Miao people this method are actually not wrong. Firstly, they don’t know what the other party’s purpose is. Secondly, no matter how you look at it, even if the well of gods and demons is wide open, the Miao people will only be in the middle. The most elementary level, after all, in terms of strength and background, is actually far from those people on the mountain. Judging from the almost unilateral massacre of the Miao people by the inspiration party just now, these real practitioners are much better than these original practitioners. The Miao people, whom Qi Zhen thought were very powerful, were more than a little stronger.
So the root of the problem is that we still don’t know who those Shushan disciples are. What do they want to do?
Isn’t it nice to have peace in this world? Why do you have to make trouble?
In fact, in the development of the game Fairy Sword, apart from the relatively simple confrontation between good and evil in the first and second parts, the third part has more diversified exploration and thinking.
Continuously digging into the mutual attraction between the six camps of humans, monsters, gods, and devils has led to this colorful world of fairy swords, which cannot be encompassed by the simple words of good and evil.
Qi Zhen thought about it and decided to let the Miao man go, at least not by herself.
"I have no problem, so you can leave here now." Qi Zhen finally nodded and said softly.
The Miao man seemed a little unbelievable, looking at Qi Zhen blankly, as if asking: Should I go by myself?
Qi Zhen pointed at Liao Xun and said, "Don't worry, they won't chase you. Just leave."
Miao Ren nodded, still doubtful. He was afraid that as soon as he turned around, someone would come from behind, which would be too annoying.
Qi Zhen ignored the Miao man's confusion and continued, "I have a few words to tell you, and I hope you can tell them to the leader of your clan."
The Miao people nodded.
"Don't rely on this method to strengthen your strength in the future. Although I know you are trying to protect yourself, you must also be careful of being used by others. Of course, there is nothing you can do if you don't listen to me. But if I find you doing this again, At that time, it will be nothing more than bringing my disciples together to resolve the matter, so what does Shushan mean?"
"As for your matter, my disciple will tell the court so that they will never invade your land again. If possible, I also hope that I can mediate for you and let the Central Plains court pay some blood and compensate you more. Okay, you said you don’t have the ambition to conquer the world, so why bother fighting? In the end, whether it’s the Miao people or the Central Plains people, aren’t it the common people who suffer?”
What Qi Zhen is saying now is actually all whimsical nonsense. The conflict between the two parties will never be resolved smoothly in a day or two. However, Qi Zhen fabricated a powerful master sect that does not exist, and said it was even coaxing and deceiving. , whether it is coercion or inducement, the actual purpose is to make the other party temporarily stop refining the demonic energy. As for what happens next, we will talk about it later.
The Miao people responded, and they didn't know whether they really listened to it or were just trying to deal with Qi Zhen. In short, if they didn't agree, they would die immediately. If they agreed, it would be up to them whether they would do it or not. Whether they did it well or not is another question. In short, for the sake of now You can survive, and the Miao people are not stupid.
"Let's talk somewhere else?"
In order to prevent the Miao people from disbelief, Qi Zhen said to Liao Xun and Liao Xun in a fake manner.
"Okay." Liao Xun nodded.
Then Qi Zhen and the others disappeared in front of the Miao people in an instant.
In fact, Liao Xun was still sitting on the ground, and Qi Zhen was still standing there.
This Miao man didn't talk nonsense. He disappeared into the valley after a few ups and downs. It seemed that the injury just now was not as serious as he showed.
Qi Zhen turned her head and looked at Liao Xun and his wife who were still sitting on the ground slowly absorbing the demonic energy, and narrowed her eyes.
kill? Or not to kill? this is a problem.
…
Feeling that the power in his body was much stronger and the demonic energy around him was so thin that it was difficult to detect, Liao Xun slowly opened his eyes and revealed a smile that was difficult to conceal.
"Brother, are you awake?" The woman looked at Liao Xun and couldn't hide her joy.
"Well, junior sister, the absorption of demonic energy this time has almost caught up with the results of our cultivation in the past three years. Unexpectedly, I have thought a lot before, but still underestimated the concentration of demonic energy here." Liao Xun said with a smile.
"Not only that, the demonic energy here is so pure that it is perfectly absorbed by the body with almost no digestion process. It is unimaginable that the strength can be improved so much in such a short period of time." The woman nodded.
As the leader of a sect, Liao Xun's own strength is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary disciples. The results of three years of training can be regarded as a windfall for the two of them.
"It's a pity that the magic circle was destroyed by that Miao man. Otherwise, if this continues, wouldn't we be invincible?" the woman continued.
Hearing what the woman said, a stern look flashed across Liao Xun's face, and his originally unpleasant voice now became even more sinister: "Junior Sister, I changed my mind."
"You mean..."
"That's right, I just thought about it. This opportunity is really rare. Firstly, you and I have greatly improved our strength now. Even the person just now may not be able to escape our sneak attack whether we are calculating or not. Secondly, This Miao territory is so large, there must be more than one place for refining demonic energy. In order to prevent the other party from leaking the news in advance and causing the other party to make preparations in advance, I think we should..." Liao Xun waved his sword down with his right hand. .
"Brother, it's not too late. The other party is injured and shouldn't be able to run far. Let's catch up quickly." The woman said.
At this time, Liao Xun seemed stunned and had no reaction to the woman's words.
"Senior brother, senior brother?" the woman called twice more.
"Ah? Well, let's catch up quickly." Liao Xun came to his senses and replied.
"Senior brother, are you okay?" the woman asked.
"It's okay, let's catch up quickly." Liao Xun waved his hand.
The woman was a little confused, but she still nodded and followed Liao Xun towards the outside of the valley.
The two of them were much faster than the Miao people just now, and they left the valley in a blink of an eye and gave chase.
Only a spurge as tall as a person was left in place.
And Liao Xun’s body.
He opened his eyes and didn't seem to understand why he died here inexplicably.
A clear blood hole was revealed on his neck, as if it had been scratched by a sharp weapon that had seen blood and sealed his throat.
I will never die with my eyes in peace.
