The hundreds of casual cultivators clearly outnumbered the dozens of disciples of the Southern Sect, but no one dared to refute at this moment.

Lang Tieying glanced at the crowd, casually reached out and pointed among hundreds of people, and quickly selected thirty people.

"You, you, you, and a few of you, each choose ten people to form a team and help carry the people who cannot be revived. Hurry!"

While talking, Lang Tieying took out several golden ribbons and tore them into thirty strips of cloth for the thirty selected people to tie on their arms.

Time was running out, and he had no time to explain or argue with these hundreds of people, so he could only violently restrain them together.

If someone really dared to speak just now, he would immediately kill them.

But perhaps the murderous intention in his brows was too awe-inspiring, and no one among the hundreds of people spoke up to refute, which made his idea of ​​killing chickens and scaring monkeys come to nothing.

Perhaps because Yu Tingzhang's appearance was too honest, he was also selected as one of the thirty people.

'Alas! What is this!'

Yu Tingzhang gave a bitter smile, but without any delay, he selected nine people from the crowd closest to him and Luo Jiujiang stepped forward to help.

Seeing that the disciples of the Southern Sect were still helping ordinary people, a glimmer of hope arose in the hearts of many practitioners.

They didn't care about it anymore and formed groups to help.

There are only more than 400 ordinary people among more than 2,000 people, so they are easily carried by many practitioners.

"Look, there are insects approaching from other directions."

Practitioners with outstanding vision had been observing their surroundings, and suddenly they discovered that the practitioners who had fled in all directions were escaping back in droves.

When I looked into the distance, I saw swarms of insects approaching rapidly from all directions like a sea tide.

The green grassland is gradually swallowed up by black.

Yu Tingzhang made a rough estimate and found that insects in all directions were no more than five miles away from his location.

And even if the speed of insects is not as fast as that of a galloping horse, it is not much different.

If everyone stays where they are, the place will be submerged by the sea of ​​insects in just a few minutes.

At this time, the ‘Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect’ made a move that reassured everyone.

They asked many practitioners to gather in the middle, while the disciples of the Southern Sect surrounded them like a wall.

This inevitably gives many casual practitioners a false sense of security.

Yu Tingzhang, carrying an old man on his back, stood with the rest of his team, quietly observing the expressions of the Nanzong disciples.

But the serious faces with panic and sad expressions made his heart sink continuously.

‘It seems that the ‘Xiantian Yiqi Nanzong’ has no way to deal with it!’

Just as he was looking around, trying to find a way out for himself, the four Nanzong Jindan masters who had left suddenly returned one after another from the air.

After a few people discussed in the air, a Jindan master said loudly:

"Everyone, there are strange insects attacking from all directions right now. There is no cover here and it is not conducive to defense.

However, there are towering stone pillars in the north that may be able to temporarily resist the strange insects, so you can follow our sect and rush to the north."

After saying a few simple words, the Jindan master no longer hesitated, but took the lead and rushed towards the north by stepping on the 'Yi Chi Pan'.

Following him were the other two Jindan Masters and some of the Nanzong disciples below.

Another four Jindan Daoists and about two hundred people went to the back of the Nanzong disciples' hall to guard against insects approaching from other directions and disrupting the queue.

Nearly a thousand people rushed toward the north in a chaotic manner, and from time to time, practitioners who had fled in various directions joined in.

Not long after, the original two thousand people gathered together again.

The countless stone pillars in the north are about five miles away from everyone.

The difference between casual cultivators and sects is fully revealed during this period of running.

The Nanzong disciples maintained a relatively complete group formation from beginning to end, although many of them showed nervousness on their faces.

The situation is different for casual cultivators. There is still a rough queue at the beginning.

But as insects approached rapidly from all directions and the sound of "rustling" became clearer and clearer, some people could not bear the huge pressure and began to speed up their pace.

In line with the idea that "a dead Taoist friend will never die a poor Taoist", many casual cultivators could not help but speed up their pace, leaving the Southern Sect disciples behind.

Yu Tingzhang was also one of them. His ten-man team was now in name only and had long since separated from each other. However, Luo Jiujiang followed closely beside him, carrying an old woman on his back.

While he was running wildly, he saw an ordinary person lying on the ground not far away.

Yu Tingzhang's heart moved, and he understood that this was because the casual cultivators who were carrying ordinary people in the front despised ordinary people as a burden and abandoned them.

He couldn't help but look back and saw the Nanzong disciples in white robes not far away, with their backs to everyone, retreating like a wall.

Their attention had been completely attracted by the rapidly approaching sea of ​​​​insects, and they had no time to care about anything behind them.

There were many people who had the same behavior as Yu Tingzhang, and their eyes were erratic among each other.

Yu Tingzhang loosened his hands slightly, pretending to accidentally throw off the person carrying him.

Suddenly, he felt a burning gaze beside him staring at him. He turned around and saw Luo Jiujiang looking at him expectantly.

He said nothing, but Yu Tingzhang's hands involuntarily grasped the person on his back tightly.

Luo Jiujiang's eyes lit up, and there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.

Yu Tingzhang sighed secretly.

'That's all! We can't let this little brother we just met look down upon.'

While he was thinking, he came to the abandoned ordinary person.

Feeling that Luo Jiujiang's steps beside him became hesitant and slow, Yu Tingzhang said in a deep voice:

"We can't save them."

Saying this, he turned a blind eye and quickly flashed forward.

The reason why I say ‘them’ is because he is well aware of the complexity of human nature.

As long as someone takes the lead, others will inevitably follow, and soon more ordinary people will be abandoned.

After rushing forward for more than ten meters, I realized that Luo Jiujiang had not followed.

'Alas! He killed me!'

I was sighing in my heart, but my feet turned and turned back.

Luo Jiujiang said to Luo Jiujiang, who was clumsily pulling the man forward slowly:

"Step aside!"

Luo Jiujiang straightened up silently. He could do this kind of thing, but he couldn't ask others to do the same.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! So he had never asked Yu Tingzhang before.

Because he knows a truth.

If you want to do good things and help others, you have to suffer the consequences.

For example, if you see a beggar begging, you can give him your money, but you cannot ask other people to hand over their money.

Otherwise, it would be to kidnap others based on morality, which is not allowed by the education he received since childhood.

So if Yu Tingzhang didn't turn around to help, although he would be a little regretful, he wouldn't think that this person was untrustworthy.

No one has the obligation to revolve around themselves.

However, when Yu Tingzhang turned around and returned, Luo Jiujiang couldn't help but feel a little excited.

With a straight face, Yu Tingzhang shook his hands, pulled out a rope, picked up the man and tied him in front of him.

He solemnly said to Luo Jiujiang:

"Brother Luo, it's okay to save people, but you have to do your best, understand?"

Luo Jiujiang looked at Yu Tingzhang, who had one person tied up in front of him and behind him, and said softly:

"Brother Yu, I understand, save one more person!"

Yu Tingzhang sighed and said:

"Save one more, you said so."

"Um!"

"Well, let's go quickly, otherwise it will be too late."

The practitioner moved so fast, and with only a short delay, the Nan Sect disciples behind him were about to catch up.

The two people who were originally in the center of the queue were now at the end.

The two of them used their feet again and moved forward quickly. Before they had gone two hundred meters, they saw the fallen figures of ordinary people everywhere on the ground.

Yu Tingzhang's guess came true.

Luo Jiujiang didn't hesitate at all. He swept his eyes on the ground and took a few steps to reach a child who was only a few years old.

Before he could speak, Yu Tingzhang had already thrown out a rope, rolled up the child and threw him into Luo Jiujiang's arms.
