The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire Chapter 422: The demon is in power
Nowadays, the monsters in the mountains and forests are coming out to make trouble, attacking the city and eating all the villages and towns they passed by. Everyone has entered their stomachs, and they are extremely cruel.
Nowadays, it is rumored that there is a big monster in the forest, claiming to be the Huangshan Demon King, and leading all the monsters in the mountain forest. I don't know how many crowded places have been brutally murdered along the way.
To the east of Guide Mansion, Xiayi County and Yucheng County in the north of Hecheng County have been breached, and both counties have fallen.
Now the Huangshan Demon King is leading the 30,000 demon soldiers to attack the Guidefu city Shangqiu, and seeing Shangqiu city can't be blocked for long, it will fall.
And this and the city and county are completely disconnected from the city, surrounded by this monster, and don't know when they will be breached, everyone is reduced to the food in the belly of the monster.
Nowadays, with more and more bad news coming, even small groups of demons come and go around the county town, plundering all directions and devouring human beings, making the entire county town panic.
The county magistrate ordered villagers from all over the country to gather together to form a village to defend their homeland. Recruiting talents everywhere, begging those with magical powers to come and help defend the city, as if a big battle is about to come.
But this is of no use after all, at most it will delay their demise for a day or two!
Zhong Yu was walking on the streets of the city. A group of soldiers with nervous expressions and fearful faces patrolled around, looking at the people passing by, as if there were any spies of the demon among them.
The surrounding civilians also looked terrified and rushed. The merchants and travelers who used to go out to sell were also gone, and the wide streets looked very desolate.
Even when the war was approaching, there were not many people coming to the food shops where business was booming.
Because everyone in the city knows that if the monsters really attack, the battle will not last for a few days and the city will be destroyed.
At that time, even if you buy more food, what use is it!
In short, the city can't see the slightest vitality, everything is full of death, and a breath of decadence and decay radiates.
"It seems that if there is no external force, the fall of this small county will be within this period of time."
With Zhong Yu’s knowledge, he naturally knew why the entire Guide Mansion was ravaged by demons, and even Shangqiu City, the mansion city, was caught in the flames of war, and it was difficult to protect himself.
But why is such a low defense, the city wall is in disrepair for a long time, and the county without the slightest combat power can be alone, and after so long, no monsters have come to attack.
Not because he was surrounded by demons and couldn't escape.
Plus that Huangshan King is mobilizing all the monsters, he is preparing to fight an uphill battle with the upcoming Dongjiang Province reinforcements in Guide Mansion, in order to determine the ownership of the entire Guide Mansion, and even the forces of Dongjiang Province. pattern.
This kind of time is to gather all the forces to meet the fate of the next battle, and how can there be any energy to dispatch the army to come to crusade against the city and county.
That's why Hecheng County can be saved until now.
However, as time goes on, no matter who wins, he can't avoid the fate of falling.
If the monster wins and hangs alone in the back, Hecheng County, which is surrounded by the monster, will naturally find it difficult to take care of itself, and it will inevitably be a dead word.
On the contrary, if the demon is defeated, then as the demon clan forces withdraw, they will obviously not mind destroying such an ant on their way back, killing all the blood on it, and finally having a full meal.
Therefore, there is only one fate for the whole city and county, which is death, and the difference is when to die.
This is why everyone in the county, whether they are soldiers or civilians, looks desperate.
There is no hope for everything in the future, nothing is motivated, and he looks like he is waiting to die.
Even the county magistrate who is actively forming the army and recruiting talents now has to struggle to death because the surrounding roads are wrapped by demons and there is no direction to escape.
Otherwise, if the demon is willing to give him a way of life and let the magistrate leave, he will probably just run away directly with the money he has raided over the years, and it will not be critical to the life and death of the untouchables in the city.
Walking around in the city, carefully observing the situation in the county, and understanding everyone’s thoughts, Zhong Yu achieved his goal and returned to the inn where he currently lives, and rested there. No thought of going out.
These inns are the most prosperous business nowadays.
Those villages and towns throughout the county have become unsafe under the harassment of small groups of demons.
Therefore, wealthy and wealthy families with some money and some armed forces, all with their family guards, moved to the county seat with their families.
How can a small county seat so many people, so many people live in the inn, waiting for the final destiny here.
Now the inn is full of people, and under melancholy, all of them went to the wine table on the first floor to drink to relieve their sorrows, constantly talking about their own distress and fear for the future.
And Zhong Yu just sat there quietly, drinking fine wine alone, listening to the people in his ears, and collecting information he didn't know from them, so as to improve his understanding of the world.
From the conversations of these people, Zhong Yu slowly understood the generality of the world.
After all, although he had used some methods before, he roughly read all the books in the county seat, and he also had some understanding of the history, geography, and cultural customs of the world.
But after all, it’s not sound. How much can a small county have its book collection? Nothing compares to the precepts and deeds of these people.
From the conversation with people just now, Zhong Yu probably understands the current practice world, that is, the form of masters of extraordinary power.
Practitioners in the human world today are roughly divided into three groups.
The first is Taoism. Taoists practice Qi, breathe, cultivate to become immortal, master all kinds of supernatural powers, and are the most powerful.
The second is Buddhism. Because it appeared later than Taoism, but later slowly catching up, the strength is not much worse than Taoism, and it is the second in the world.
The third is the mainstream of the current world, the Confucianism that holds authority in various places. These Confucian students cultivated awe-inspiring aura, and reached a high level~IndoMTL.com~ It is quite powerful to be able to retreat all the evil spirits in one word. Under that huge base, the strength is quite extraordinary, ranking third in the world.
Although there are still a few hundred schools of scholars, and there are parades and scattered people in various places, but compared with these three sects that have systems, have the same beliefs, and have received support from various dynasties, they are not far behind. Can't get on the table.
And these cultivators are not hidden in the mountains and forests, but frequently appear in the eyes of the world, competing for the beliefs of the world, and there are many contradictions between each other.
However, the strengths of these schools and the corresponding levels are not very clear.
After all, it's just a small remote county in the frontier. Where can I know so much, and be able to understand the division of such a few schools of cultivation, it is already considered very good, and where can I ask for other things?
However, according to the news from this county, King Huangshan who was ravaging the entire Guide Mansion, when he heard that he shot, the surroundings were ten miles of black smoke, it is difficult to see the sky, and a mouthful of blood can swallow a thousand people. , The strength is extremely terrifying.
Judging from his shots, the King Huangshan should be a demigod, belonging to the sixth level.
This is very scary. A demigod will be born in a small mountain and forest thousands of miles away. Inferring from this, the entire Liao Zhai big world has a vast area. I don't know how many thousands of miles of mountains and forests, thousands of miles of plains, and how many kings of Huangshan can be born.
Even the seventh-order strength above it, and even the eighth-order gods and demons can be seen everywhere.
"The water in this world is so deep!"
Thinking that there are so many powerful people in this world, countless difficulties and obstacles, I dare not say that I can do it alone, Zhong Yu couldn't help being a little dignified.
However, immediately it became more combative.
"Only in this kind of world can I break through the boundaries of heaven and humans and release the curse!"
