Chapter 6 Beimang
The Luo family, a wealthy family in Great Xia, was brutally wiped out by the Four Symbols Cult and the Blood God Cult. The whole family was left without chickens or dogs. This incident spread throughout the world within a few days, shocking the world.
Although Zhao Changhe has heard several people talk about the chaotic times, it is actually not completely chaotic yet. Today, there are chaos everywhere, bandits are rampant, alien races are on the lookout, high-ranking families are occupying each side, and careerists are ready to make moves... However, there is still a unified empire in name, Daxia, which is a sign of the end of the dynasty, and it has not yet completely entered the period of competition among the heroes. .
Nowadays, there are many people who claim to be the king of the mountain, at least those who openly raise the flag of rebellion have not yet appeared, and they are still at the level of "bandits" and "devils".
The typical watershed between this level and the real troubled times should basically start with the killing of officials and rebellion, the siege of cities and territories, etc., which means that the authority of the imperial court has disappeared.
The Luo family is not a powerful force, but it has a long heritage and is considered a high-class family. It also has a special feature - it is rumored that the Luo family is related to the royal family.
Zhao Changhe heard Yue Hongling say this when he first came to your place. Although no one could tell what the connection was, it might not be a rumor. Just seeing that Tang Shouzuo didn't even have time to wait for the large troops, the sick body rushed to the rescue at starry night, this is already a kind of proof.
Nowadays, this local family related to the royal family has been wiped out by the demon sect overnight. It is like being slapped in the face of the royal family. It seems to be a sign that the prelude to the troubled times is about to completely begin, and the storm is about to come.
And one of the little-known names came into the world's eyes through the Daxia Wanted Order.
The murderer, Zhao Changhe!
…
Thousands of miles away, Beimang.
Heavy snow covered the mountains thousands of miles away, and they were all covered with snow.
Zhao Changhe, who was just beginning to become famous, was feeling extremely pained at this time.
He stood on the top of the mountain in the cold wind and looked up into the distance. His clothes were thin and he was freezing to death. Luo Qi stood beside him, both of them expressionless.
At that time, the first single person in the Tang Dynasty was still ill alone, and he couldn't force him to take Zhao Changhe's first level in the enemy line, but he took away Luo Zhenwu's body and left. Zhao Changhe, who had a "voucher of surrender", was naturally taken back by the Demon Cult to join the gang. Also taken away was Luo Qi, who was next to Zhao Changhe. He was regarded as a member of Zhao Changhe's gang...
Obviously Luo Qi had never planned to join any demon sect, but he did not dare to run away, so he had no choice but to follow him here. His whole life was disrupted, and his face was always dark along the way.
Zhao Changhe understood his bad face, but he didn't feel that he had cheated Luo Qi. After all, Luo Family Village is dead. Without him, it's hard to say whether Luo Qi would have survived. Even if Mr. Tang can rescue Luo Zhenwu, how can he care about you, an outer disciple? The probability of being a deadbeat is as high as 99%. To put it bluntly, Zhao Changhe saved himself, otherwise he would have been hacked to death by the Demon Cult.
In fact, Luo Qi knew it well, so he walked with Zhao Changhe wherever he went, even though he had a bad look on his face. Zhao Changhe is also happy with this, because he is the only person he is familiar with at this time...
As for joining the Demon Cult, Zhao Changhe certainly wasn’t hesitant. When things got pushed to this point, he just added more. How could the Luo family be better than the Demon Cult?
The demon cultists didn't go around showing off their violence on the road, they just brought them back in an extremely low-key manner. The demon cultists quite agreed with Zhao Changhe's behavior and were quite enthusiastic towards him along the way, praising him as "a good man", but Zhao Changhe was still very annoyed.
Beimang Beimang... of course he exists in the world, and he is quite famous. When I first heard this place name, I thought it was from ancient Chinese world geography, but it turned out not to be the case. This Beimang has nothing to do with the Mang Mountain he knows. This mountain is deserted and uninhabited, with thousands of miles of ice and snow. There is a city outside the mountain, but it is also a small and remote city. It is not the land of Heluo at all.
This is not ancient China, it is a completely different world. I just don’t know what it has to do with my dream. Could it be that because it is my dream world, the customs here are similar to China, and the language is also modern Chinese?
I don’t know, but it’s very sad. During these days of traveling, he had slept and woke up so many times, and there was no sign of returning to the present world. Zhao Changhe knew that he really could not go back.
Zhao Changhe has never had the desire to travel through time. He still has his parents at home, so he has to wear a lot of clothes. What he wants most at this time is to go home.
Whether you can go back by killing the witch or not... In short, since the blind man has the ability to make people travel through time, it means that he can also develop the ability to go back. Obviously, the first priority is to gain knowledge of power as quickly as possible. For example, by opening the so-called human body portal, it is possible to get a glimpse of the path back.
If nothing else, I'm afraid I'm going to die of cold here if I don't practice.
Luo Qi, who was on the side, suddenly spoke: "Is it because of the demon sect's skills that you are so showy?"
Zhao Changhe turned to look at him, but Luo Qi still had no expression. Zhao Changhe shook his head and said: "There is no limelight at all. It is to avenge the innocent villagers of Zhaocuo, and it is also self-protection. Otherwise, you and I might be hanging there."
Luo Qi said: "Then you should give a false name. Why are you so arrogant about calling the murderer Zhao Changhe?"
Zhao Changhe smiled: "Why can't even Zhao Changhe be talking nonsense? Who knows who I am if I change my name when I go out in the future..."
Luo Qi choked for a moment, turned his head and stopped talking. That look was a bit cute.
Zhao Changhe said at this time: "That's the real name."
Luo Qi: "Grass."
Luo Qi was stunned and didn't know how to answer this. Just to show off?
Zhao Changhe finally sighed: "Speaking of which, real names and pseudonyms are meaningless. I guess arrest warrants have been posted everywhere. As long as the face is painted like that, any name will be the same... Well, I hope Tang Shouzuo is not good at painting. ”
Luo Qi sneered: "The first person in the Tang Dynasty was famous for his fine music, chess, calligraphy and painting. He was most famous for his talent and appearance, and was famous throughout the Xia Dynasty."
Zhao Changhe shrugged: "Forget it, what can I do if I've done everything?"
Luo Qi stopped worrying about this and said instead: "Actually, it's not unusual for people to go to higher places... I just wonder if you might be a little regretful. The one who brought us back was not the Four Elephants Sect, but the Blood God Sect. The Blood God Sect's The level is not much better than that of the Luo family, and the background may not be as good as it is.”
Zhao Changhe originally thought he could join the Four Symbols Sect, but it was obvious that the Luo family could be destroyed not by the Blood God Sect, but by the Reverend Suzaku of the Four Symbols Sect. The Blood God Sect was just a henchman. As a result, as soon as Mr. Tang left, Venerable Suzaku also left without any further words. The main body of the audience were Blood God cultists, and of course they were brought to join the Blood God cult.
Moreover, instead of following Master Xue to the chief helm, he was just taken to the Beimang sub-rudder, which seemed not to be taken seriously.
Think about it and I really don’t pay too much attention to it. What kind of future can an older young man who has no spiritual practice at all have. It's just that the Demon Cult also needs to recruit people. Of course, those who have submitted their name to join the group will be regarded as members of the group. If you don't accept this, where else are you going to recruit people?
If Zhao Changhe were a few years younger, or if he had strong cultivation, he might have a good job. Unlike now, when rituals were being carried out inside, they were not allowed to watch and could only blow the cold wind outside.
"I have no regrets. I just have somewhere to go. Anyway, I will be destroyed if I stay in the Luo family, so what else can I do?" Zhao Changhe didn't talk about it anymore and said instead: "Are you still angry with me? How many days have it been since this journey? , this shameful face will never end, I didn’t destroy the Luo family. If I hadn’t done this, wouldn’t you have been dead if I didn’t do this? Are you still loyal to Luo Zhenwu and want to avenge him? "
Luo Qi sighed: "As you said, it was the Four Symbols Sect and the Blood God Sect that destroyed the Luo family, not you. Why should I blame you? It's just that my life has been in chaos since then. The future is confused and I am in a bad mood. It was not intentional. I'm sorry, I hope you understand."
Zhao Changhe understood it, and asked: "Then do you hate the Blood God Cult? As a child of the Luo family, are your parents... involved?"
"Huh..." Luo Qi shook his head: "My parents have been gone for a long time... I'm just curious, why on earth did they want to destroy the Luo family?"
Why should the Luo family be destroyed? This matter may indeed be quite important. Zhao Changhe quickly thought of the second "location card" he had traveled through. Since the "eye behind the back" is really effective, the location card cannot be targeted without aim. It must be related to the Luo family. Maybe you can ask about it when you really join the cult...
But Luo Qi said: "The Blood God Sect is not as mysterious as the Four Symbols Sect. They have many activities in the world and often recruit all kinds of gangsters to plunder... So they are divided into formal believers and non-staff gangsters. What kind of things can you and I get? It’s hard to say about the salary... If you can officially join the church, you can help me a lot in the future.”
This is why he took the initiative to ease the relationship. Zhao Changhe is the one who has made meritorious deeds and has a great chance of being a disciple, but he is not.
Zhao Changhe also knew it well. Yue Hongling had mistakenly thought that the men in black who massacred Zhao's house were gangsters from the Blood God Sect. This was because the martial arts skills were superficial and the foundation could not be seen. It is conceivable that if you just absorb this identity, it will be useless.
At this moment, a small crack opened in the secret door at the rear, and someone shouted from the crack: "The helmsman, let you two go in and talk."
The two of them thought about it, looked at each other, and turned around to go inside.
There is a secret door under the ice and snow in the mountain col. The path behind the door winds all the way down, leading to the heart of the mountain deep underground.
The space inside the mountain is neither large nor small. There is an altar surrounded by a pool of blood, which can accommodate hundreds of people to participate in the ceremony.
This is where the Blood God Cult's branch altar is located. There are more bandits who are not allowed to enter and can only live in the snowy and icy mountains.
At this time, the torches were brightly lit around the blood pool, and more than a hundred formal believers formed a strange formation around the edge, sitting quietly and praying. The sub-rudder was mumbling something on the altar, roughly speaking that his actions would go smoothly under the blessing of the Blood God.
So this is a "sect", not a sect.
However, looking at it now, the scene does not have any mysterious feeling of surging blood, but it does feel a bit superstitious.
“Is there a **** in this world?” Zhao Changhe asked Luo Qi in a low voice.
"Yes." Luo Qi was very sure: "I have never seen the true God, but there are many miracles... everyone believes in it."
“What miracle?” Zhao Changhe asked hurriedly.
He originally felt that this should not be a world of low martial arts. Otherwise, how could he explain the blind man's ability to send people across the border?
Luo Qi gave him a strange look: "You don't know?"
“I don’t know.”
“You’re alive in this **** world and you haven’t seen the Book of Troubled Times!”
