Reborn as a Cube Man in the Late Ming Dynasty

"Watch out!" Wei Shi slashed down the starving man in front of him with his sword, then turned and kicked another starving man who was trying to sneak up on the pillar, sending him flying backward.

The starving man fell heavily to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood. He struggled for a while and then stopped moving.

Licking his chapped lips, Zhu Zi panted heavily, looked at Wei Shi gratefully, and nodded slightly to show his thanks.

He was too exhausted to speak after fighting with the starving people.

These starving people were incredibly difficult to deal with. Knowing that their stamina and speed were no match for Liu Qi and his group, they simply didn't bother to engage with them.

They went straight after Miao Zhiming.

There was no way to engage in a drawn-out fight, and even if they injured or killed several people, they wouldn't stop, regardless of the lives of those around them.

Liu Qi and the others had no choice but to take up their swords and charge forward. They fought until now, and quite a few starving people had fallen, but that was just a drop in the ocean.

There were far too many starving people.

Looking at Liu Qi and the others' almost tattered clothes, especially Wei Shi who was almost naked from the waist up, Zhu Zi felt extremely guilty.

His clothes were the most intact of all, with only a few scratches.

After giving Wei Shi the boots and the wooden sword, his weapon was too short to defend himself.

Therefore, Liu Qi and the others also subtly protected the pillar in the very center, guarding the outer perimeter.

At first, it was easy to handle, but the influx of starving people was overwhelming, even for someone made of iron.

Fortunately, the immortal lord gifted them immortal artifacts, which could withstand some of the damage; otherwise, they would have collapsed long ago.

Unfortunately, they were surrounded by starving people and were almost completely exhausted.

Just then, something even more despairing happened: the boot suddenly exploded and vanished without a trace.

"Hahaha, you've killed so many of us, and the sheep are all gone. You won't be able to escape either. We'll use you as payment for our debts. Stay here and go into your grandpa's belly!" The starving people laughed maniacally, looking Liu Qi and the others up and down with lewd eyes.

Can't wait any longer!

"Follow me, I'll charge forward and fight my way through you." A resolute glint flashed in Wei Shi's eyes as he squeezed out these words.

"Okay!" Liu Qi said without any pretense, his voice hoarse.

If Wei Shi hadn't been so skilled in martial arts, they would have been defeated long ago. If possible, he wouldn't want to give up.

But right now, without the protection of the immortal artifacts, they will all die if they don't do this!

"Take good care of my young master!" Wei Shi said solemnly to Liu Qi.

He was relieved only after Liu Qi nodded.

From the boots that could withstand the blade to the wooden sword that was as sharp as an iron sword, Wei Shi could tell the difference.

Even if that immortal lord wasn't a god, he was still a person with some extraordinary abilities and magic, although he was somewhat foolish and careless about details, and was so confident that he only sent these few people.

But he had protected his belongings, and as long as these people returned and remembered his kindness, he would leave, and the young master would not be bullied by the people in that village.

I wonder if, when the young master wakes up and finds that I'm gone, he'll hide in a corner and secretly wipe away his tears, just like when he was a child?

Haha.

Wei Shi's lips curled slightly, and the next second, his eyes instantly turned sharp.

"Kill!" Wei Shi roared, squeezing out the last bit of strength from his body, and charged straight at the sharp weapons!

Boom! Boom!

Suddenly, the ground began to shake slightly, and the frequency increased.

The starving people who had been surrounding the area were already exhausted, and with the violent earthquake, many of them swayed and fell to the ground.

earthquake?

Wei Shi was overjoyed and was about to seize the opportunity to rush out.

Unexpectedly, the earthquake, like a roaring beast, actually knocked Wei Shi to the ground.

"Monster! It's a monster!!!"

Just then, the starving people in front of Wei Shi all looked terrified, struggling to get up. They stumbled and fell due to the strong earthquake, then crawled forward desperately on the ground.

"Don't kill me!"

"Run!"

What kind of monster?

Wei Shi suddenly turned his head to look, and his breath hitched.

What a scene that was!

A three-meter-tall creature covered in blood, its body glowing red, was rapidly swinging its long arms.

Before the starving people who had fallen to the ground could even crawl a few steps, they were violently thrown into the air and crashed to the ground, becoming like rag dolls.

Some unlucky people, if they just manage to dodge it by a hair's breadth, will have their arms smashed to pieces if they get hit.

It was like hell, filled with pleas and screams, with a few scattered limbs on the ground.

Upon witnessing the tragic state of Liu Qi and the others, Tieshan was truly enraged and showed no mercy to these creatures that resembled his own villagers.

"Run! Run!" Wei Shi shouted in terror at Liu Qi and the others.

If the opponent were a fierce warrior, he would have the courage to go forward and fight him.

But as the monster drew closer, he immediately noticed that its body color and movements indicated it was almost entirely made of iron.

Looking at that ferocious action, I realized that if I went up there, I would only be adding another life to that monster's body.

"Why aren't you running? Run!"

Wei Shi called out anxiously.

"Don't worry," Zhu Zi slumped to the ground, gazing with adoration at the tall, moving figure. "That's the Iron Mountain General under the Immortal Lord's command!"

Even though they knew beforehand that the Iron Mountain God General was very powerful, the fact that he could crush an ant like this still left them dumbfounded and even somewhat frightened.

Is this the divine general they speak of?

Wei Shi was dumbfounded, staring blankly at the war machine that was indiscriminately killing.

Those vicious, starving people were all easily dealt with!

The screams and pleas for mercy gradually subsided. Tie Shan, his body stained red, stood on the red soil, turned to look at Wei Shi and the wooden sword in his hand.

I will die!

You can't resist, or you'll die!

Staring into those cold, red eyes, Wei Shi's strength gave way, the wooden sword slipped from his hand, and he fell to the ground.

"Iron Mountain General, he's in cahoots with us!"

Zhu Zi quickly called out from the side.

Tieshan nodded and walked over to Liu Qi and the others.

However, the sight of them covered in blood still frightened Liu Qi and the others somewhat.

All of this was observed by Tieshan. It scratched its head, pondered for a moment, and conjured red poppies in its hand. It then gently walked over and presented them to Liu Qi and the others one by one.

This was the only way he could think of to express goodwill.

Of course, Wei Shi was bypassed by Tie Shan.

Liu Qi keenly noticed as the Iron Mountain God approached.

The once smooth body developed some cracks, and the red light was still flashing, only obscured by the color of the blood.

After handing the poppy to them, Tieshan stepped back a few paces, keeping a distance from them, and then turned around to look at them.

"Iron Mountain General, are you planning to send us back?" Liu Qi asked.

Tieshan nodded.

Tieshan wouldn't feel at ease if these villagers weren't under his watchful eye.

"Let's go! We should go see the Immortal Lord!" Liu Qi said to Wei Shi.

Wei Shi swallowed hard: "Immortal Lord?"

Even the divine generals are so brave.

How mighty must that immortal lord be?
