Shushan: Extinction

Chapter 244: The God of War who likes to cook old lotus roots.
After all, these independent cultivators and monsters are actually very eager to find a powerful force to protect them. They are not strong enough, and it is too difficult for them to survive alone in this dangerous world.

They are the most vicious ones who curse those monsters who join the cultivation sects to become spirit beasts, spirit birds, and spirit trees.
He just kept calling people traitors, running dogs, and traitors, and he kept saying different things for three days and three nights.

But if there really is a chance for them to surrender to the real person, they will be the first to kneel down.

Why are you cursing so harshly? It’s because you haven’t gotten the chance to have such a good thing happen to you.

Old Sang Yao initially felt that it was not worth it to rely on a mortal, but then he heard that this young marquis actually had a real master!
So what are you waiting for? I want to be a dog under the master!
Gong Tianwu smiled and waved his hand:
"I see that you are an excellent doctor, Mr. Sang. I will pay more attention to this aspect in the future. Three hundred sheep are just the basic salary, which will increase as your guest status improves in the future."

While the monster was daydreaming, Gong Tianwu once again gave orders, asking people to completely burn down the General's Palace, which had turned into a horrific Shura field.

Hundreds of strong men worked together and soon the place was engulfed in flames. One could even hear wailing and screams of pain coming from the hall.

When the General's Hall was completely burned and collapsed, a prompt appeared in front of Gong Tianwu's eyes again:

"Your actions directly caused the iron helmet containing General Shi's soul to be burned, and General Shi died completely."

"General Shi's death has had a certain negative impact on the plan for the demonic outbreak eighty-three years later, so your soul life span has been increased by eleven years."

Upon seeing this prompt, Gong Tianwu immediately became excited:
"There is such a good thing?!!"

Yes, what Gong Tianwu lacks most now is soul life. Now that he has suddenly gained eleven more years, it is like a timely help.

Suddenly, Gong Tianwu felt that the ten or so cause and effect points consumed to activate this opportunity were quite worthwhile.

Gong Tianwu will certainly not retreat next. After killing General Shi, he will definitely find a way to plunder and obtain the spoils. For someone who has just started his career, this wealth must be pocketed.

And with the help of Old Sang and Old Demon Bei, this shouldn't be a big problem.

At the same time, a light red arrow appeared on Gong Tianwu's retina, indicating that the real opportunity to trigger the 14 causal points was still to come, so he led his men and walked quickly to the rear.

After walking about five or six hundred meters, Gong Tianwu and his group followed the road to a deep valley. They could see that more than half of the valley rock wall had been flattened, with the three big characters "Samsara Valley" written on it.

At this time, Mr. Sang said:

"This is where General Shi feeds people. It's like a carefully designed living cage."

Continuing forward, the group passed through two steep gray-black cliffs and then arrived at the entrance of the valley.

There is a mottled bronze stele here with the words "raising livestock" engraved on it, with dark red rust seeping between the characters.

There were also pieces of talisman paper scattered on the ground, with words such as "suppress", "seal" and "anonymize" written on them in cinnabar.

Looking from a high place, the entire valley was divided into several regular areas, each separated by a bronze fence.

The outermost layer is the "primary breeding area", where hundreds of ragged people are locked in iron cages. They are pale, with numbered wooden tags tied to their wrists, and they are mechanically eating brown rice from the trough in front of them.

There were several dull guards nearby, who should be puppets. They turned a deaf ear to the outsiders who came and mechanically sprinkled some dark red powder into the rice from time to time.

Mr. Sang went forward, picked up the powder, smelled it and said:
"This is a drug that, if taken for a long time, will slow down the mind, strip away a person's emotions, and turn them into a walking corpse."

At this time, Gong Tianwu had already looked at one of the people.
The man looked thin and haggard, probably around 28 or 29 years old. He looked like a weak scholar who had failed in the exams many times and was not even able to tie a chicken. His eyes were somewhat dull.

And a fiery light suddenly appeared in Gong Tianwu's eyes, because at this time the red arrow was staying above his head.

At the same time, the bloodline ability to recognize people is activated:
"Name: Chen Shengzhi."

"Loyalty: 90."

"Strength: Very weak/severely ill."

"Template: Chen Qingzhi/Bai Qi (hidden)"

"Possessing SS-type talent: God of War."

"People with this talent are natural leaders. They have extremely terrifying intuition about the battlefield and can always find flaws in the enemy's deployment. They are also very good at commanding their soldiers. The morale of their soldiers will remain high under any circumstances."

"Possessing negative B-type talent: Short life span, the upper limit of life span will be reduced by one third, and the body will often be in a weak state and frequently fall ill."

"Possessing Type B talent: managing agriculture. If a person with this talent is a local official, he will be good at building water conservancy projects, caring for the people, and making them live and work in peace and contentment."

"Possessing the characteristic: 7,000 white robes. Three months after handing over the army to its commander, the elite will be selected and gradually trained into a special type of soldier: the White Robe Army, which has strong mobility and attack power."

"Having the trait of wanting to boil old lotus roots, probably because of the lack of maternal love in childhood and adolescence, people with this trait disdain the opposite sex of the same age or younger, and prefer the opposite sex who is ten years older or more."

"Having traits: taking powder, this person has a low resistance to addictive drugs or leisure products, and likes to enjoy Wushisan, cigarettes, alcohol and other things that can relax himself.

Seeing this, Gong Tianwu couldn't help but shudder.

Chen Qingzhi, this guy’s template is actually Chen Qingzhi? ! ! ! ! !
Famous teachers and generals should not be complacent, and thousands of troops will avoid the white robe - this is the god of war praised by the great poet Du Fu in his poems.

The legendary thing about this man is that his martial arts skills were very low. He had difficulty drawing a bow and riding a horse. He only appeared on the historical stage at the age of 42.

However, the legendary life that follows is full of cheats, which even novels dare not write in this way.

Most of the time, this man led troops with a small number against a larger force. His first battle after his debut was between 2,000 and 20,000. The masterpiece of his career was the Battle of Xingyang, where 3,000 white-robed soldiers defeated 300,000 Northern Wei soldiers.

According to historical records, Chen Qianzhi led more than 247 people to fight against the Northern Wei army times, captured cities, and never suffered a single defeat!
Yoshiki Tanaka, who is as famous as Jin Yong in the Asian literary world and is known as the two pillars of the East, wrote a book with Chen Qingzhi as the protagonist: "Ben Liu".

Here comes the point! !
The most powerful librarian in history.

Qinyuanchun.Snow Author

Mr. Mao, who surpassed Rommel, Zhukov, George Patton and others, is known as one of the top ten military strategists in the world.

When reading the history book "Chen Qingzhi's Biography", he wrote down the following comments:
Reading this biography again is fascinating.

Gong Tianwu was extremely shocked when such a character template suddenly appeared before his eyes.

As for Bai Qi (Yin), it should be said that he is somewhat similar to Bai Qi, but is currently hiding?

However, Bai Qi is also a famous and powerful commander in history.
Wait! Gong Tianwu suddenly realized something was wrong. Why was this guy's loyalty 90?

I had never met him before, so that means he has already pledged allegiance to someone else?
Thinking of this, Gong Tianwu frowned for a moment, but then he was relieved. As the saying goes, there is no corner that cannot be dug down as long as the hoe is not wielded properly.

With his current power and ability, it would not be a problem for him to control Chen Shengzhi, who has not yet made a name for himself.

At this time, the people around saw Gong Tianwu suddenly standing there, and then froze, so they didn't dare to disturb him. After a while, Hasar was a little afraid that Gong Tianwu was possessed by evil spirits, so he whispered: "Master? Master?"

Gong Tianwu immediately came back to his senses and said:

"Oh, oh, I'm fine."

Then he pointed at the people in front of him and said:

"Save them. These people are so pitiful. Do your best to save them. If you have any problems, come to me."

Then Gong Tianwu said to Mr. Sang:

"Is being addicted to real powder harmful to your health?"

Old Sang said:

"This thing mainly obscures the mind and does little harm to the body. After all, General Shi's goal is not to kill them."

"As long as you stop taking it, boil water with dandelion, angelica and licorice and drink it as tea every day, and persist for half a month, it will be completely cleared."

Gong Tianwu nodded:

"Okay, I will ask more people to consult Mr. Sang on this matter in the future."

The old Sang Yao smiled and said:

"Okay, okay. This is my responsibility."

Then Gong Tianwu continued walking forward and found that after turning a corner he arrived at the "Fanyan District".

The prisoners here were locked up in a stone chamber alone. Each of them wore clean plain robes, their eyes were dull and numb, but they all had copper rings engraved with runes around their necks.

The doors of the stone chambers are numbered, such as A1, A2, B1, B2 and so on.

It can be seen that there are more boys than girls here. Some of the women in the stone chamber have bellies as big as drums, and they are obviously pregnant.

Most of the young women were staring at the bronze mirror in a daze. Some of them smiled woodenly when they saw Gong Tianwu passing by, then took off their coats to reveal a pair of indescribable parts:

"Come on, come on, do you want to sleep?"

Suddenly, there was a loud noise coming from the front. Gong Tianwu looked closely and found that the fence of the stone chamber in front had been removed by someone with bare hands!

Immediately afterwards, a young man jumped out nimbly, and the broken railing in his left hand had directly pierced into the chest of a puppet guard, and then he easily picked it up and smashed it out.

In just a few blinks of an eye, all the puppet guards were killed. However, at this time, the young man probably triggered the restrictions on his body. The copper ring on his neck suddenly flashed with light, and five long needles pierced out and penetrated deeply into his neck.

The young man's whole body trembled, the light in his eyes quickly dimmed, and he slowly fell to the ground, blood slowly flowing from his mouth.

At this time, Hasar suddenly stepped forward and said in surprise:

"Yang Xian? Are you Yang Xian from the Tianshui Yang family?"

The young man opened his eyes with great effort and glanced at Hasar:
"You? You are?"

Hasar said:

"I am Hasar, the archer of the Kaleguo tribe. When your family came to the grassland to sell salt, you were only seventeen years old. I didn't know your father well until we had a fight."

After hearing this, Yang Xian suddenly remembered and tears flowed from his eyes:
"I remember now, you are Uncle Hasar. I am going to die. Please tell my father that although I have done many wrong things, those were not my intentions. I have no choice but to die!!"

"But there is one more thing I need to ask of you, Uncle Hasar. The woman in the Bingqi Stone Chamber over there may be pregnant with my child."

When he got to this point, he suddenly fell silent. It turned out that it was Elder Sang who had knocked him unconscious. He said unhappily:
"If you have anything to say, talk about it later. You're really taking your time. If the bleeding doesn't stop, you're really going to die."

Hasar:
"."

Gong Tianwu:
"."

***
The group continued walking forward and arrived at the "waiting area for sacrifice".

This place actually looks the most normal. There are almost no prisoners here, and everyone has a rosy complexion. Some are even bathing and changing clothes with the help of the puppet guards beside them.

They would also quietly queue up to receive a jade "blessing plaque" with the words "Slave So-and-so" engraved on it.

Some people who had nothing to do knelt devoutly before the statue that looked like General Shi, mumbling prayers:
"It is my blessing to be chosen by the general"

Those who witnessed this all felt horrified, and Old Sang could only sigh sadly:
"These people have been deeply poisoned and have almost completely lost themselves. Their minds have been completely distorted. From the physical to the mental side, they are beyond redemption."

In the center of this area stands a bronze altar, with nine stone pillars standing beside the altar, each of which is tied with a rusty iron chain.

Seven grooves were dug under the altar, three of which still had traces of fresh blood. On the shelf next to it, dozens of sets of plain white sacrificial garments were neatly hung, each with a different birth date embroidered on the heart.

At the same time, there were some bamboo slips scattered on the stone platform next to him. Gong Tianwu picked up a few and took a look:
"Number 3, after being nurtured for a hundred days, can be used as a sacrifice to the devil."

"Ci Zi No. 7, pure blood, suitable for the death birthday ceremony"

"Number 9 has a gentle temperament and is suitable for being the center of the formation."

After seeing the news, Gong Tianwu felt deeply that the entire Samsara Valley was like a precisely operated warehouse of living people, transforming them into sacrifices that could be used at any time.

Every detail reveals a suffocating sense of order, which is more horrifying than simple slaughter.

This shows that General Shi either possesses great talents himself, or there are deeper connections behind him.

***
Gong Tianwu didn't have to worry about the finishing work, it was just a matter of lighting a fire and burning it.

After all, destruction is always more convenient than construction.

What made Gong Tianwu happy was that after destroying the Samsara Valley, he actually got two more cause and effect points.

It turned out that among the victims, there was a guy whose comprehension, physique, and spiritual awareness were pretty good. Although he was not recruited when he was young, it was because he suffered from tuberculosis when he was born, and he had obvious shortcomings in his congenital physique.
