In the flash of sword light, a figure retreated awkwardly, squatting in the corner and panting.
If this face wasn't so well-known, onlookers would definitely regard this panting man as a rookie, because his strength is only a second-level monk.
Today's Holy Dragon City is comparable to the Paradise of Cave Heaven. Even if the ordinary residents of Lou City have little practice, they all have cultivation levels above level three, and they will become more and more advanced in the future.
In this environment, it is really hard to see people with a level two cultivation level. Leaving aside the children, Tang Zhen is the only level two cultivator in the entire city.
Fortunately, he was in a special situation, so he didn't feel embarrassed at all.
"Haha, brother-in-law, you are too weak, you are no match for me!"
Murong Ziyue, who was wearing battle armor, looked proud and looked at Tang Zhen arrogantly, obviously enjoying the feeling of violently torturing the powerful Spirit Emperor.
Qianlong, Mo Run and others on the side wanted to laugh but did not dare to laugh. They could only keep a straight face and looked very awkward.
"What are you so proud of, little girl? Your brother-in-law is afraid of hurting you, otherwise you, a lord, would still want to hurt him!"
Tyson said something fair on the side. Of course, if he hadn't turned around and snickered, Tang Zhen would have really regarded him as a good comrade.
It must be said that Tang Zhen's past achievements were so amazing that in the eyes of the residents he was an invincible strong man. That's why when Tang Zhen was beaten by Murong Ziyue until he ran away, everyone felt such uncontrollable joy.
Feelings emerge.
Even if they knew that this was because the host body was too weak, they couldn't think otherwise. There was no difference between this body and Tang Zhen himself.
Tang Zhen didn't care about everyone's reactions, but raised his head and drank a bottle of potion to restore physical strength, and pointed at Mo Run.
"It's your turn, don't let it go!"
With a trace of helplessness flashing in his eyes, Mo Run could only bravely walk to the training ground and act as a sparring partner for Tang Zhen for an hour.
In fact, not only Mo Run, but also Qianlong, Tyson and others were all dragged over by Tang Zhen to serve as sparring partners, just to allow the city lord to develop the potential of this body as soon as possible.
At the same time, Robert and others specially prepared a large number of medicines for Tang Zhen. Each bottle was valuable and could help him recover his physical strength in a very short time.
It was by using this method that Tang Zhen was able to upgrade two levels in a row, as if he had become a rocket!
Except for Tang Zhen, no one in the entire Shenglong City can recruit such a high-level sparring team. You must know that everyone here holds important positions and is extremely busy on weekdays.
Waving the sword in his hand, the weak version of Tang Zhen was about to fight Mo Run, but his expression suddenly changed.
Mo Run also noticed this scene and slowly lowered his raised sword.
"Lord City Lord, has something happened?"
Tang Zhen nodded, threw the sword aside, and said in a deep voice: "The drone discovered a village with many aliens living in it, about five thousand kilometers away from us!"
Hearing Tang Zhen's words, Qianlong and others were all happy, and quickly followed him to the battleship command cabin.
When Tang Zhen and others arrived by car, the thousands-square-meter command cabin was filled with busy figures. Dozens of holographic pictures were suspended around it. On it, a village where alien indigenous people lived could be clearly seen.
After seeing Tang Zhen coming, everyone saluted, and then an officer in a black combat uniform began to report: "The alien village you see now has about three hundred residents. The surrounding resources are poor, and the living conditions are primitive and backward. There is no way to
Determine if there are monks present."
Tang Zhen looked at the image on the screen, nodded slightly and said, "Have you searched around the village? Ordinarily there shouldn't be only one settlement."
"A radius of 500 kilometers has been searched, and no other villages exist. However, some ruins of villages have been found, and they seem to have been abandoned for a long time."
"Very good, now let's go straight to that village. I guess there will be a surprise soon!"
Following Tang Zhen's order, Shenglong City, which had been hovering in the air for two days, slowly accelerated and suddenly broke through the dark clouds and headed straight into the distance.
…
Looking up at the dark clouds in the sky, the villagers of Baiya Village weakly crawled out of their tents and slowly gathered in the center of the village.
Because they don't have enough to eat all year round, every villager looks very thin, and their standing figure shakes from time to time.
After seeing that the villagers were almost gathered, a tall but equally thin man stood up and shouted to everyone: "We are going to dig up the roots of ancient trees today. Everyone, please work harder and try to dig out the roots of ancient trees in the next few days."
Dig out the tree roots, otherwise the village will soon run out of food!"
The tall man is the village chief, the leader elected by more than 300 people.
After hearing the village chief's words, the villagers' faces looked a little ugly, but they quickly regained their numb expressions.
This is not the first time this has happened, everyone has long been accustomed to it.
In this barren land, food is the most precious thing. In order to obtain enough food, they move around and live a life of no fixed settlement. Every once in a while, villagers will die due to hunger and illness, and the village
The number of people is also becoming smaller and smaller.
After shouting weakly for a few times, the villagers walked out of the village with simple tools and started digging on a hillside.
This place had been dug by villagers before, and the ground was littered with soil and gravel. A few dry and broken tree stumps stood alone, with thick roots deeply pierced into the ground.
The villagers kept cleaning around several roots, just to dig out the ancient tree roots deep underground, obtain the starch-like items inside the roots, and obtain the precious water sources deeper down.
The frail body greatly reduced the work efficiency, and the soil mixed with rocks was extremely hard. The villagers who did not have any tools dug for a whole day, but they only broke the surface soil layer.
The leading village chief looked at the slow pace of the villagers. Although he was anxious, he had nothing to do.
In order to prevent themselves from starving, no villagers were lazy and skilful, but their bodies were so weak that even moving a slightly larger stone required the cooperation of several people.
With a sigh, the village chief picked up a stone the size of a human head, staggered to the outside of the pit, and threw it out with all his strength.
Taking off the water bottle made of bones from his waist, the village chief took a careful sip, and the unbearable feeling of dry cough was slightly relieved.
Looking at the desolate land around him, a trace of worry flashed through the village chief's dry eye sockets. He didn't know if he would be so lucky next time and be able to discover new ancient tree roots before the food was almost gone.
If it were not for this harvest, the villagers would continue to starve and more people would die.
Scenes of painful memories flashed through the village chief's mind. Among those figures were his brothers, children, and many villagers with lifelike faces...
There seemed to be something coming out of his eyes, and the village chief quickly raised his head to look at the sky. He didn't want the villagers to see his fragile appearance.
But then the village chief's body froze, his weathered face was filled with shock, and his mouth opened involuntarily.
When the villagers nearby saw this scene, doubts appeared on their faces, and they also turned their heads to look at the sky.
In less than a minute, all the villagers stopped what they were doing and just stood there blankly, staring intently at the building city that looked like a moving continent pushing through the dark clouds and hovering quietly above the village.
