After the abolition of the cold palace, I just want to cultivate immortals

Chapter 96
I can't remember how many times I went back.

In the dark night, Lu Qiyun was like a fish swimming off the shore, with her mouth wide open, panting violently, but her lungs were throbbing and her mind went blank.

The tragedy and pain of several deaths accumulated in the nerves. Apart from death, there is more despair.

This is a world with no way out...

When she saw the skin color of her hands getting darker, the nails getting thicker and sharper, and her consciousness becoming chaotic, she became a puppet at that moment.

Seeing the mutation of Kongzhao and Baishao, she had no real sense at that time, but seeing herself turned into a puppet with her own eyes, she truly experienced the fear that penetrated into the marrow of her bones, and her consciousness, memory, and feelings were swallowed up bit by bit, and she completely became a human being. An immortal puppet.

That is worse than death.

The light in Lu Qiyun's eyes became weaker and weaker, and she let go of it for a moment, allowing her consciousness to be drawn into the depths of the dark and lightless vortex.

"Little Yun'er, get up!"

who is it……

The voice was amplified in his head, the gentle voice was like a piece of driftwood grabbed by a drowning man, the heavy eyelids were slowly lifted, and the wizard's worried face was in front of him.

"You..." seems to be a familiar person, who is it?
The wizard reached out to wipe away the tears on her face, "It's okay, you did a good job."

Did she cry?Lu Qiyun lowered her head in a daze, her eyes fell on the white hair of the wizard Ruxue, and she only heard him say: "If you don't mind, you can tell me."

Looking around, this is her hut, yes, she returned to the starting point, but this time it was not Yuegui and Youlian who came.

The wizard just called her Xiaoyuner, this memory must not be from this time, so the wizard also has the memory from last time?
Seeing that her eyes gradually brightened, the wizard smiled with relief: "Before I came, there was a voice in my heart that urged me to ask your name. The moment I came here and saw you, I naturally thought of your name, as well as some vague words. memory."

Memories are messy and illogical, but that doesn't prevent him from trying to figure it out.

There was only one person who fell into despair repeatedly, as if a gap was opened because of the change of the wizard, Lu Qiyun couldn't help holding his big and thin hand, and said slowly: "I have become a human puppet."

The wizard looked at her, distressed: "It's over."

Is it over?

I thought things would turn around when I arrived in the capital, but what I faced was another kind of despair.

You Lian and Kong Zhao can't kill the ignorant city residents. Although their tranquility is like a window paper that can be broken, it is also the only ray of hope in despair.

If even this little hope is destroyed...

Not only did the city lord not do anything to them, but he invited them to stay. The stock of red crystals in the city has been sufficient for a long time, and he has been the city lord for long enough. When someone succeeds, he can leave with peace of mind.

The Santo wants to deal with the base in his generation.

You Lian and Kong Zhao lived an ordinary and peaceful life for a day, eating snacks they hadn't eaten before, watching tricks they hadn't seen before, Lu Qiyun knew that someone was following them all the time, and the city lord didn't let go of his guard.

It is true that the city is indeed as the city lord said, ordinary and ordinary, and those who know the magic power are all elderly people. They tacitly keep silent, and there will be children who have not awakened the magic power and turned into a dog and disappeared, but few There are very few of them.

The city owner said that it was because of the expulsion of evil, but Lu Qiyun found that the well water in the village had weak energy fluctuations, which should be due to the addition of red crystal powder. She speculated that this subtle energy should increase the chance of children awakening their spell power.

Swallowing red crystals is a crime, but their self-deceiving peace is also based on swallowing red crystals, it's just a hundred steps to laugh at fifty steps.

Until the night of the seventh day, the time reset and everything returned to the original point.

"Since they can't do it, I can do it alone."

With such a belief, Lu Qiyun single-handedly, without telling anyone, without calling any helpers, after persuading You Lian, she directly pulled out the witch thread and went straight to the capital.

Not going to the next village saved a lot of time, but relatively, the people she met along the way were densely packed, and she didn't even have a chance to catch her breath, attack numbly, and harvest red crystals.

kill them all!
Kill them all!
There is only one voice left in my mind, as if it has become a walking slaughter machine, breaking through the gate of the capital, the spell power is directed at the city lord's mansion, absorbing a lot of red crystals, her spell power is condensed and powerful, and the guard team is easily smashed by her Lingtai.

The bustling and peaceful capital is like a sea of ​​blood.

Get rid of the city lord first, and then welcome people from other bases into the capital, and there will be no more livestock from then on.

This should be correct, right?
However, she saw terrified faces, and soon someone changed, one, two...

kill them all!
At some point, her hands grew sharp claws, and the corners of her mouth were hurt by sharp teeth...

"never mind!"

The wizard embraced her with a powerful voice, and pulled her out of the daze. Lu Qiyun opened her eyes blankly, "I don't know what to do."

There is only one last chance left.

"What exactly is right?"

The wizard's heart sank, and he couldn't answer this question. After a while, a flash of determination flashed in his eyes, "Little Yun'er, do what you want, believe in yourself, and I will accompany you this time."

Believe it?
The hypocritical tranquility of the capital city and the cruel reality of the village seem to be the two extremes of the world pulling each other. What should we do?Kill all the people in the capital?

Early the next morning, the sorcerer summoned all the people in the village to explain the facts. The village chief looked horrified, and the villagers who were kept in the dark were terrified, but because of their belief in the sorcerer, the expected chaos did not happen.

With a small face, Lu Qiyun was always paying attention to the crowd. With the experience of the previous few times, she could immediately locate the villagers with abnormalities.

"I will undo the spell of the witch thread."

The crowd was even more frightened, and they couldn't help kneeling down to pray for the wizard's protection. The wizard looked compassionately, and sighed, "My mantra can only last for another seven days. If that's the case, why don't we all work together to find life."

Lu Qiyun raised her head abruptly, deeply moved, the wizard trusted her wholeheartedly, and now he withdrew his spell power and took the lives of the whole village to help her.

"There are puppets outside! If you go out, you will die!"

"Crazy!"

Fear and panic spread among the crowd.

However, no matter how you resist, the magic power of the shaman thread will be withdrawn, and it will be a matter of time before the puppets enter the village. After half a day is given for those who want to leave to pack up, the shaman will take the whole village out of the village when the assembly time comes.

Several friends surrounded Lu Qiyun and asked questions, Bai Shao was about to cry, "Is what the wizard said true? We are all domestic animals?"

Babao shook his head, "How could this be? I don't believe it."

The village head, who had always had a gloomy face, remained silent. He disapproved of the wizard's decision. The truth is so cruel. Wouldn't it be better to live a more stable life for a few more days?
Hearing Babao's words, he walked home in silence. There was also a dog in the cellar, which used to be his daughter.

Most of the people in the village were waiting at the gathering place, and the rest refused to leave no matter what, the wizard did not persuade them any further.

Lu Qiyun's map marked the village next door, as well as the location of other villages she guessed. The wizard rubbed a copy and looked at her with a smile: "Then we will separate and meet in the capital?"

Lu Qiyun kept silent and handed him a bag of red crystals.

Hongjing followed her back and accumulated time and time again. Now that she has a lot, Hongjing can replenish her mana at critical moments, which is safer.

"wait for me."

The wizard's face was not good-looking, and even looked scary because of his thinness, but Lu Qiyun got the strength to persevere from him.

"Ah."

The wizard led most of the villagers to the next village from the south.Lu Qiyun led You Lian and the others to search for other villages from the north, whether they found them or not, they would meet at the gate of the capital three days later.

All the way to the north, as Lu Qiyun guessed, bases No. 70, No. [-], and No. [-] were found along the way. The size of each village is different, and the number of people is also different. There are more than [-] people in the most, and only [-] people in the few.

Because they are young, after listening to what they said, most people are skeptical, You Lian and Bai Shao try their best to persuade them to go to the capital together, but the effect is not good.

In the end, only twenty or so people from the three villages were willing to go with them.

During the long journey, Lu Qiyun paid special attention to everyone's mental state. While encouraging Kongzhao, she praised Bai Shao's strengths, so as not to let her feel sorry for herself and think she was useless.

Seeing the city wall of the capital again, Lu Qiyun seemed like a lifetime away.

"Where is the wizard? Haven't you come yet?" Yue Gui looked around, but saw no one else except them.

Babao said anxiously: "Will there be an accident?"

Lu Qiyun's heart skipped a beat. The time when the wizard arrived at Village No. [-] should have happened to miss Sankun and the others. Although there were many people along the way, they all came over...

But the wizard needs to protect so many villagers...

No matter how powerful a person is, his ability is limited. Judging from the wizard's initiative to give shelter to the villagers, the wizard will never give up on those villagers who are new to him.

Thinking of this, Lu Qiyun felt a strong uneasiness in her heart.

"How can there be an accident, Mr. Wizard?!" Kong Zhao strongly retorted, "There are so many of them, so of course they walk slowly. Let's go in first? Or should we wait here?"

From time to time, puppet people would gather nearby, and it was obviously unwise to wait here. The villagers who followed were eager to enter the city when they saw the high wall.

"Go ahead."

After hesitating for a moment, Lu Qiyun made a decision.

When a group of people entered the capital city, Lu Qiyun immediately noticed the shadow of the secret guards. Even though they had just entered the city, the city lord must have known of their arrival.

Seeing so many people in the city, the residents were a little curious and afraid, while the villagers were also surprised and dazed when they saw the glamorous capital.

The magic power is released to protect the entire team and avoid possible conflicts.

This time her purpose was not to kill, but to negotiate.

"Little Yun! It's Mr. Wizard!"

When climbing up the tall building of the City Lord's Mansion, Yue Gui exclaimed in surprise.From a high place, Lu Qiyun saw the wizard in front of the city gate. His white hair was quite obvious, and there was a sense of vicissitudes between his brows, which could not hide his fatigue.

Behind him, about 80 villagers followed, and entered the capital peacefully and orderly in a long line.

"Ah."

The city lord came out on crutches, first glanced at Lu Qiyun, then followed her gaze to the wizard, and finally turned his gaze to a large group of people.

The secret guards did not move, and the aborigines in the city were puzzled and uneasy. The tranquility they had carefully maintained would definitely not be broken by themselves, so at least they would not do it now.

"What do you want?"

After a while, the city lord squinted his eyes and asked.

"First, there will be no more domestic animals from now on."

"Second, we need to live in the capital and be equal to the citizens of the city."

"Third, I want everyone to know the truth."

After Lu Qiyun finished speaking, the city lord rubbed his crutches and asked, "What if I refuse?"

"Then the fish will die and the net will be broken."

Two sword-like gazes shot over, and the solid killing intent in the pupils made the city lord feel as if he had fallen into an abyss, his legs seemed to be tightly grasped by a pair of hands crawling out of hell, unable to move half a step.

Just one look made him fall into extreme fear of death. Why did a little girl have such a heart-pounding killing intent?
After a long while, he let out a long breath, Lu Qiyun was not just talking, he believed that she could do a good job, the guards might be able to stop her, but the city people would never go back to the peaceful life before.

"I can agree to the first two requests, but not the last one."

Do you still bother to maintain the last illusion?
The city lord and Lu Qiyun each took a step back and set aside a separate area in the city to accommodate everyone in the village.There are no vacant houses. Everyone starts from scratch and lays the groundwork to build a house. Because seeing the bustle and bustle of the capital, everyone feels full of expectations and strength.

Looking at the scene in front of you, is this the end?
"Little Yun'er."

Hearing the wizard's voice, Lu Qiyun came back from her thoughts, and said lightly: "It's not over yet."

"What else needs to be done?"

Lu Qiyun stood on the city wall, pointed to the outside and said, "Puppet."

"You want to clean up all the puppets?"

"Ah."

As long as the puppet is still there, despair will never disappear like a beast watching in the dark.

The wizard was stunned, and subconsciously thought that this was an impossible task, not counting the people who might mutate in the future. Although the number of human puppets outside is a fixed number, after all, human puppets cannot reproduce, but after more than a hundred years, they cannot be counted at all. .

"Whichever step is done, it counts, but I want to try it once."

Her expression is stubborn, her eyes are burning.The wizard was impressed by her from the bottom of his heart. As expected of his little Yun'er, she was far more tenacious than he imagined.

"Master Wizard, are you willing to help me?"

The wizard hugged her with a smile, "Of course, I said I would accompany you to the last moment."

Clearing up all puppets, this decision is simply arrogant and whimsical, the city lord almost laughed out loud, but she said sarcastically: "The city lord's guards have the guts to kill livestock, but don't they have the guts to kill puppets?"

One sentence made the city lord turn pale and pale.

"I can lend you the guards. If you can clean up all the puppets, I will agree to your third request!"

The crutches were stomping loudly, and the city lord ordered the leader of the guards to listen to Lu Qiyun's command. If he could really wipe out the puppets, damn it, he would have expectations for a little girl who doesn't know what to do!
On the sixth day, Lu Qiyun led several people out of the city, accompanied by a wizard.

On the seventh day, go out of the city again.

The eighth day...

ninth day……

The wizard no longer needs to defend the entire village, and he can last for more than seven days, and time has finally not returned to the original point.
