Chapter 141 Don't let the river be exhausted to fish

Chapter 141 Don’t just catch everything

Author: Dark Eggplant

Chapter 141 Don’t just catch everything

Five days have passed since the death of the Emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Kyoto is no longer as prosperous as before. It's fine during the day. Once the sun goes down, only the guards patrol the streets. People, even officials, are not allowed to go out.

At this moment, Xu Mo and Xiang Ying were walking in the streets.

As if there was no one around.

In the shadow behind her, Wei Sanniang used her tactics to cover the eyes and ears of the guards along the road. Even if they passed by and shouted at them, they could not find Xu Mo and others.

Seeing the scene in Kyoto at the moment, Xu Mo couldn't help but say something.

"Sickness comes like a mountain!"

Xiang Ying next to him came over to Xu Mo, smelled it, and said, "You're not sick either, why are you sighing so much?"

Xu Mo said: "I'm talking about the Great Xia Dynasty!"

"Of course I know that I'm just teasing you because you've been in a bad mood these past few days." Xiang Ying said again: "It's not because of you, so why should I worry about it. When I came down from the mountain after completing my cultivation, the world

This is not the world of Daxia yet. We have seen prosperity in prosperous times and experienced tragedy in troubled times. This is the law of nature. If you don’t want to see this, come back to Dragon Mountain with me. We can’t see it but don’t mind it.”

What Xiang Ying said makes sense.

At this time, Xu Mo stopped and looked deep into the alley.

It was a dark and windy night, and the alley was quiet and silent, but if you looked carefully, you could see a faint light, flickering in and out.

Xu Mo asked Xiang Ying if there was anything evil inside.

Xiang Ying sniffed it, nodded and said it should be there.

"Recently, there are a lot more monsters in Kyoto than in the past."

"Go in and have a look."

Xu Mo walked into this alley.

From the entrance to the inside, walk a hundred steps.

At the end is the courtyard door of a house, which is ajar, leaving a crack, and the light comes from this crack.

Here, you can smell a strange fragrance.

It's like someone is stewing meat.

"Who is making stew in the middle of the night? Is life so good?"

The meaty aroma is very attractive and has a feeling that makes people open their index fingers.

Xu Mo pushed the door open and saw an old man squatting in the stove over there to light a fire in the small courtyard.

The fire was huge, but there was no smoke.

There was a strange big pot on the stove. Something was cooking in the pot, and the strong aroma of meat came from there.

The movement at the door naturally alarmed the old man, who turned around and glanced.

Good guy!

I've seen ugly ones, but never this ugly ones.

No.

This can no longer be called ugly, but scary and weird.

There are several mouths on the old man's face, the largest one is on the chin, which can be opened left and right, along with the neck and chest, like a long wound filled with sharp and tiny teeth.

"What kind of evil method have you practiced? How did you get yourself into such a horrible state?"

Xu Mo couldn't help but ask.

The old man actually smiled.

A sound came from that terrifying mouth.

"Fellow Taoist, there are so many weird things out there. It's just a small method of "Introducing Evil into the Body". There are many practitioners, some of whom are uglier than me."

Hearing what he meant, he was actually dissatisfied.

Xu Mo likes people who are unconvinced. This way, he will feel a sense of accomplishment when he is convinced.

However, Xu Mo did not take action immediately. Instead, he leaned over and asked, "What are you doing?"

"You're blind, didn't you see the stew?"

This old man is very tough.

I hope I can maintain this unruly attitude in the future.

"What kind of meat is so fragrant?"

"Of course it's human flesh. Could it be cattle, sheep and domestic animals?" The old man sneered at this time: "Fellow Taoist, don't ask, I know what you want to do. Say what you want to say, why bother beating around the bush."

"Oh, what do you think I want to do?"

"Don't you just want to beg for some meat, or if you can't get it, just grab it. But don't blame me for not reminding you, if you dare to do it, believe it or not, I will put you in the pot next time... Hey, there are more things to come.

A little girl, not bad, you are so cute, I can stew it again next time..."

Xiang Ying went up and tore off one of the opponent's arms.

It's as easy as breaking off a branch.

The old man wanted to scream, but didn't make a sound.

Because a female ghost in red clothes suddenly appeared from behind him and covered the old man's mouth.

And whispered in the other person's ear: "Shh, don't scream!"

The old man was extremely frightened.

Not to mention the woman who tore off his arm, even the aura exuding from the female ghost behind him was enough to crush him.

The female ghost let go of her hand, and the old man was no longer aggressive now. He was very honest and answered whatever was asked.

"Where are you from?"

"Grave City."

Upon hearing the word "grave city", Xiang Ying came over and whispered a few words to Xu Mo.

Xu Mo nodded.

"What's it called?"

"Wangshan!"

"When did you come to Kyoto and what did you do here?"

"I came here a few days ago, I, I came to eat people."

"Who asked you to come?"

"No one but myself. I heard that the world will be in chaos and humanity will bring disaster to itself. At this time, I naturally have to seize the opportunity and go out for a good meal. Fellow Taoist, you, don't you do the same?"

"Who is like you? Let me ask you, who did you come with?"

"I'm the only one, but I know there are people coming to the cemetery, but some of them went to other places."

I can't ask anything else.

"Eat it!"

After Xu Mo finished speaking, he stood up and walked out. Xiang Ying took a look and followed him.

I heard a scream behind me.

Wei Sanniang followed.

But the blood on her dress seemed to be even brighter.

Xu Mo knew that in troubled times, many evil spirits would come out to eat people.

At this time, there is no way to control it. After all, in the troubled times, countless people have lost their lives. Some evil spirits do not kill people, but only eat people. How can we control them?

For example, the world is in chaos, and bandits are killing people and stealing goods.

The corpse thieves don't want it, but those weird monsters do.

Another example is that someone can't live anymore and sells his son or daughter. Someone buys it with gold and silver, and then goes back to make soup, stir-fry or fry, and eat whatever he wants.

There are so many of them, too many.

What's more, it is not uncommon to kill and devour people secretly, killing hundreds or even thousands of people at a time.

Therefore, in times of trouble, the population will inevitably decrease sharply.

Until the chaos is over, everything can return to normal.

But this must be a long-term process, maybe one or two months, maybe three to five years.

Sometimes it even takes more than ten years or decades to recover.

"I have been to the Grave City. It is not small in scale. It is a bit like our Six Saints of Mountains and Rivers. In fact, although there are only six of us, there are many demon cultivators and spirits attached to us. Just in Dragon Dragon Mountain alone, the little demons under my command, Shao

It's said to be hundreds."

Xiang Ying's words reveal the details of the grave city.

If Xu Mo uses it as an analogy, it is equivalent to the martial arts sects and various forces.

Of course, this refers to the forces in the weird world of immortality.

"The rule of the Zhengqi Department is to eliminate evil spirits and protect humanity. Since there are so many evil spirits in Kyoto, they must be eliminated. Xiangying and Sanniang, we can't sleep anyway, so come with me to kill as many as you can."

Xu Mo was holding back anger in his heart. He had figured out some reasons before. In order to fight for power and gain, some people ignore the safety of the people and are full of evil. If such people finally win and gain the position of human emperor, wouldn't it mean that they will be righteous in the future?

The commander must also respect his orders?

Isn't this helping the evildoers?

Then the Zhengqi Division, will it still be the Zhengqi Division?

He had asked the boss about this before, but he shook his head and said nothing. He also asked Han Xuan, but Han Xuan said that he couldn't explain it clearly and was a little confused.

I asked the sage.

The first sage actually asked if there were any new poems, which they wanted to hear.

"They're all fucking crazy!"

Especially the response from the Immortal Saint made Xu Mo think about it with fear and his scalp went numb.

He suddenly remembered the eight-character plaque in the Zhengqi Department.

"Imperial power changes, but humanity endures forever!"

When I first saw it, I felt it was upright and refreshing.

But now that I think about it again, Xu Mo has a new understanding and understanding of these eight words.

"The so-called eternal existence of humanity means that it only needs to exist. As long as it is not invaded by external evil spirits and destroys humanity, it will be fine. But if there is a man-made disaster, let it heal itself and never interfere. In the eyes of some beings, this way, mortals

Just like the fish in the pond, the sages and righteousness ministers only guard the pond and do not allow outsiders to catch fish on a large scale. But the pond is limited after all. What should we do if there are too many fish? Let the fish kill each other. They can eat and harm the fish, but the fish on the shore

From a human perspective, what does a fish pond mean?"

Xu Mo stood still at this time, lost in thought and with a terrifying expression.

Apparently, he figured it out.

But precisely because I figured it out, I had this reaction.

Because the result of this question really surprised him.

"Why raise fish other than for food? In the eyes of that kind of being, the nineteen states of the Central Plains are just a bigger fish pond. The so-called humanity lasts forever, but it means that you are not allowed to fish all the time. You must have something to eat, and...

It happens every year...it turns out to be like this, it turns out to be like this!"
