Chapter 341

"Eat."

Throwing Xie Qiuze's natal Gu worm at Ji Qinghai's feet, Li Tianxiu pulled up a chair and sat down, quietly observing his expression.

But now, Ji Qinghai is not at all lucky to survive the catastrophe.

Because in front of the capricious Li Tianxiu, he will never be absolutely safe.

This guy didn't treat them as equals!
"Do not want?"

Li Tianxiu picked up the female worm and shook it in front of his eyes, but the latter just shook his head numbly.

So he knew that his goal had been achieved.

It wasn't difficult for him to tell if a person was lying.

And what Xie Qiuze said was indeed the truth, he only had longevity in his eyes now, so he disregarded his feelings and wanted to turn Shopkeeper Guo into his own puppet.

But this is not the reason why Li Tianxiu killed him.

After all, Ji Qinghai has given up the form of human existence, and has become accustomed to taking away his body, so that's the elder brother, don't laugh at the second brother.

The only difference between the two is that Ji Qinghai has already seen them show their style at the top of the food chain once, and the seeds of fear have already been planted in his heart.

After another wave of ups and downs, the psychological defense line will collapse and it will be easier to be controlled by him.

Just like now.

"What a scary Miss Shizuki..."

Arnold, who had been watching, couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

If Li Tianxiu is really from Oman Continent, I'm afraid there will be nothing wrong without him as a king.

"Item Name: Bone of the Great Dao."

"Quality: Epic."

"Effect: The bones containing the will of evil spirits can be used to comprehend the Dao of Longevity, but it may also cause backlash."

"Remarks: The way is different, so don't conspire with each other."

"Is this the way?"

After the show ended, Ji Qinghai was completely at ease, and shopkeeper Guo also temporarily gave up the idea of ​​cultivating immortality.

And Q looked at the horse bone brought back, with a look of disappointment on his face.

"His rain, my poison. Put it away first, the mission is useful anyway."

Li Tianxiu took out a Gu worm, which was said to be Mu Chi's treasure that could captivate people's hearts and souls, but because he died too quickly, he couldn't use it.

The use of this thing also has the restrictions of the natal female insect, and it is like a chicken rib to them. Perhaps only Zhao Miaomiao will take a second look.

After putting away their things, the reincarnators rested one after another.

In the early morning of the next day, shopkeeper Guo sold the goods to the innkeeper at a low price, and decided to return to Nanzhan City lightly.

"Jiang Zhenren, thank you for what happened last night. But... can we really go back now?"

Walking at the forefront of the team on foot, shopkeeper Guo was full of gratitude for Li Tianxiu's attitude.

It wasn't that Li Tianxiu's deduction last night was so deafening. The main reason was that Ji Qinghai's head was cut off, and it was hanging on his waist at this time, so that he could ask questions at any time.

Even in this way, they can still not die. These immortal cultivators who entered the Tao with insects are really too evil.

"It's easy to enter Nanzhan City, all you need to do is agree to be their guest minister and present the horse bones.

The strong in this world are respected, and Mu Chi's death is because he provoked the wrong person. "Ji Qinghai replied as if appointed.

After becoming like this, although he is not dead yet, he also lost the power to fight back, and completely gave up.

And he didn't dare to cannibalize last night just to prevent Li Tianxiu from having an excuse to kill him.

"Could it be fraudulent?" Q looked at him suspiciously.

"How dare I, I see that you look like you even dare to move together with King Nanzhan, my life is still in your hands." Ji Qinghai smiled wryly.

Now he just wants to go back to Nanzhan's mansion as soon as possible, and let them see him in the face of King Nanzhan.

"Grandpa, master, please do me a favor."

"I haven't eaten for three days..."

"Are you short of people to work? I just need to eat."

As the distance from Nanzhan City got closer, more and more refugees gradually appeared on the main road.

Their clothes were ragged, revealing the bony bones on their chests.

Half of them suffered from deformities of varying degrees.

Or the head is inexplicably swollen; or the lip is split from the middle, like a rabbit; there is also an arm that is shrunk, and it is difficult to maintain balance even when walking, and so on.

"Go away, go away!"

The guards of the caravan immediately scolded them and forced them out with a sword.

But looking at these disheveled refugees, Arnold couldn't help feeling compassionate.

Just when he put his hand into the package, shopkeeper Guo waved his hand violently and said in a low voice, "You can't give it to them! Something will happen!"

"why?"

Arnold looked at him puzzled.

"Don't worry about scarcity but inequality. If you give to one person, other people will come to you to ask for it. Once you can't give it back, there will definitely be conflicts." Guo shopkeeper persuaded.

Even if this group of rabble really went crazy, it wouldn't affect them, but it might not be the person who got the things.

Of course, he didn't care whether these people died or not, but Arnold himself would probably be disgusted for a long time.

"Why are there so many people here? Abandoned?"

Li Tianxiu looked up into the distance, and he could barely see the gate of Nanzhan City.

But he looked carefully, and as far as he could see so far, those refugees who resisted sitting on the roadside begging, or digging grass roots in the woods to eat, added up to 658 people, and the number of deformed people reached 456.

There are more directions not seen.

The world economy is not considered rich, and there should be no human traffickers who break limbs. Where did so many deformed children come from?

"These people...are descendants of a species, so they are prone to disabilities.

Their birth was a tragedy, so pitiful.

King Nanzhan couldn't see this, so he exiled them outside the city. "Guo shopkeeper explained.

"what?"

Arnold was dumbfounded.

What does it mean to not be able to see these things, so you are exiled outside the city?

"The species?"

Q's brow furrowed deeply, too.

"Hmm...the one who took it for breeding..." Shopkeeper Guo frowned.

"what?"

Q looked even more confused.

He had heard of boars and horses, and this was the first time he had heard of a man. What was the lord of Nanzhan City doing?
"Originally, the reproduction speed of human beings was not very fast.

And cultivating immortals by refining spiritual seeds will affect the functions of the human body.Especially in the stage after the alchemy stage, it is almost impossible to give birth to offspring.

Therefore, in order to practice better, the ruler will find some people with stronger abilities to speed up the process. "Ji Qinghai explained.

The longevity they pursue is the eternity of consciousness.

But the current situation of cultivating immortals shows that their strength cannot maintain the eternity of their bodies, and they still have to be replaced after all.

So at this time, a suitable body is very important.

"But why the deformity? Did you take any medicine?" Q frowned.

"Originally... how many offspring could each family have when you were not cultivating immortals?" Li Tianxiu thought.

"Um……"

Ji Qinghai thought for a long time, and said uncertainly: "There is only one family in three or four."

"That is to say, is there something wrong with the original genes? That's easy to explain." Li Tianxiu said.

"Explain what?"

Unexpectedly, it was Ji Qinghai who asked the question.

"The reason for the fanaticism of cultivating immortals, and the origins of these people."

Li Tianxiu looked up at the distant city, frowned and said: "The desire for power is an instinct, and the pursuit of longevity is understandable.

And if there is a problem with reproduction, the importance of longevity is even more irreplaceable.

But this method cannot really solve the problem after all, and the gradually degraded reproductive ability will still cause the population of the group to drop sharply.

As a result, many inheritances based on bloodlines were cut off, and the family-based gathering model of villages was gradually disappearing.

And when the ruler's original intention changes and he does not hesitate to breed normal human beings as animals, it will lead to a result-the blood of the offspring will become more and more similar! "

"what!"

Q reacted suddenly.

"What do you mean?"

Arnold didn't understand.

"A union of close relatives!"

Q looked at Arnold and explained: "According to our thousands of years of scientific research, inbreeding can easily lead to genetic diseases.

This has a high probability of passing harmful genes to offspring. The specific manifestations are deformities, dementia, and various congenital diseases. "

"Gene again?"

Shopkeeper Guo also doesn't understand this advanced vocabulary.

"It's like a city is made of stone, and the stone can be ground into stone powder. Even the smallest particle can be broken down into smaller structures, but your naked eyes can't tell the difference.

Genes are the microcosmic term for blood vessels.

It doesn't matter if you don't understand. In short, the conclusion is that it is best not to combine blood within three generations, otherwise problems will arise. "Li Tianxiu explained.

"what!"

Shopkeeper Guo's heart trembled violently, and he subconsciously looked at his son.

Although he didn't really understand the concept of genes, the final conclusion made him feel extremely painful.

Because Guo Zilong couldn't cry since he was born, it can be said that he was born mentally handicapped. He always thought that he had suffered some kind of divine punishment.

And if it is explained by Li Tianxiu's theory, it makes sense.

Because their family is poor and cannot afford a wife, he can only start a family with his biological sister.

did not expect……

"Is there such a thing..."

Arnold couldn't help but shuddered.

Although he himself was not at fault, there were actually many such things in the scientifically underdeveloped Oman Empire.

For the better development of the empire, I'm afraid he will have to re-issue the decree after he returns.

"Anyway, the human race system is no longer something that can be designed by humans. My inference last night is basically correct." Li Tianxiu narrowed his eyes.

"You mean... I'm really not human?"

Ji Qinghai frowned suddenly, with a confused expression on his face.

When he was accused by Li Tianxiu last night, although he chose to give in, he only resorted to force.

The idea that he was not human struck him as absurd.

But after listening to those words just now, he couldn't help but also began to doubt.

Has he lost his empathy for humans?

Is he like this still himself?
"If everyone in your impression is like you, then I don't need to say the answer." Li Tianxiu replied without thinking.

It's normal to lose empathy for humans.

When he gained great power, he was once lost.

Many gods who have transformed from humans have not dealt with mortals for hundreds of thousands of years because of the disparity in power, so they tend to naturally abandon such useless emotions.

But forget about this group of cultivators.

The power system here is far from becoming a god, and even the Guo family's caravan united can still strangle the immortal cultivators in the alchemy stage.

Why do they have the illusion that they have already transcended human existence?
It is reasonable for one person to be like this, but if everyone is like this, then they can still be regarded as human beings, but they are no longer.

"..."

Ji Qinghai was just silent, hanging by his side without saying a word, and walked towards the distant city.

……

Da da da.

"My lord, please do me a favor."

"I haven't eaten for seven days."

"Have pity on my child..."

In the other direction where Li Tianxiu entered the city, a man in a white robe was stopped by the refugees.

"It's pathetic..."

The man raised his head, his golden eyes swept over the many poor people on the plain, revealing a bit of compassion.

He reached out his hand to feel in his space pocket, then took out a bag of plastic products, took out a piece of bread and a box of milk, and handed the rest to a woman holding a child: "Unfortunately, I only have There are so many, these are for you.”

"Thank you boss! Thank you boss!"

The woman was overjoyed, she seemed to have ignored the child whose eyes you couldn't open, grabbing something and trying to stuff it into her mouth.

"Give me some!"

"You can't swallow it alone!"

Seeing that someone got the food, the people around immediately went up to loot it.

How could the woman who was exhausted from starvation be able to keep these things, the fragile bag was torn open immediately, and the contents inside were scattered.

"food!"

"They really got it?!"

Seeing someone successfully begging for food, more people ran over from a distance, wanting to get a share of it.

"Ah."

The man in white robe just smiled calmly and left without saying a word.

"Boss, what's your name?"

A little black kid followed up. Although he was obviously malnourished, his limbs were still healthy.

"They all call me...Holy Lord."

The man in white lowered his head and spoke very kindly.

"So... Holy Lord, do you need a servant? I can steal things, beat people, and... I can warm the bed, very capable!"

Xiaowazi patted his chest, trying to make his smile look better.

Can't tell, she is still a girl.

"unnecessary."

The Holy Master still maintained a warm smile, but the answer he gave made the girl feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

However, the Holy Master didn't want to take care of it, and continued to walk forward.

But when he looked up again, two people stopped him.

"Is there a problem?"

The Holy Lord stood still, like a priest listening to the prayers of believers.

"You can't go!"

"Hand over the food in your hands!"

The two refugees said bluntly.

Because they were too far away, they couldn't grab that bag of food.

"No, this is what I will eat later." The Holy Master rejected them calmly.

"But you are dressed so well, it's okay to miss a meal, right?" said the leader of the refugees.

"With so much food, you don't have to worry about food and clothing. What's the matter with giving us a little money?" A woman also echoed.

"Yeah, it's not fair!"

More refugees gathered up, staring fixedly at the bread in his hand, bloodshot eyes.

"Um……"

The Holy Master looked back at the woman who had obtained the food. The baby in her hand had fallen during the snatching, and her chest had been trampled and deformed.

"It's really unfair, so let God judge whether it's right or wrong."

The Holy Master nodded lightly, took out a gold coin from his clothes, and said unhurriedly: "Here is a gold coin with characters on one side and a human head on the other.

I flip the coin up and let it fall freely. If you can guess correctly, I will use all my money to help you buy food.

But if you guess wrong, it means that you have been rejected by the gods. "

As he said that, he tossed the coin high, put it on the back of his hand, raised his head and said, "Those who think the word is up, raise your hand, the minority obeys the majority, I will only give you ten seconds."

The Holy Master's voice was not loud, but it was heard by everyone present.

The refugees looked at each other in blank dismay, but thinking that this strange man had a piece of gold in his hand and could buy a lot of food, they expressed their opinions one after another.

"Word! That sure word!"

"How do you know...I bet on the head!"

"Every word! I choose the word!"

"time up."

The holy master raised his head expressionlessly, and the proportion of the selected words in the crowd accounted for a full [-]%.

So he opened his palm and shook his head gently: "You are wrong, it is a human head."

As soon as these words came out, many people withdrew their hands.

"You read it wrong, I just chose the head..."

"Ah yes! That doesn't count!"

There were also refugees trying to justify something, but the food and gold coins in the hands of the Holy Master disappeared. He pulled out a sword from the light gate, and sighed to the sky:
"It's so sad that you have been abandoned by the gods."

 Recommend a book of immortal chivalry, don't care about the name, the content is quite good.
