Master Fu does not envy immortals

Chapter 174
As the evening approached, the vortex under the altar gradually subsided.

Jiang Qiongxing reckoned that the underground palace was full.

She looks into the distance.

The originally endless lake has disappeared, and the high-lying areas are exposed to the ground, while the low-lying areas can also judge the water depth through the roof on the water.

In short, even if there is no boat, the tenacious people can come and go freely without difficulty.

"What should we do next?" Ji Cheyu leaned on the railing at the top of the altar, looking at several ships that were stranded not far away.

"I'm a bit regretful." Jiang Qiongxing held his chin.

"what?"

"Before I left, I forgot to ask Huo Ye what the main task of this trial is." She sighed.

Ji Cheyu smiled, a little disapprovingly: "The mission he thought might not be the real mission."

"That's right." Jiang Qiongxing said.

She saw that Huo Ye was always wearing the filter of the hero of the original book, and she always felt that since he was the hero, he should be very powerful, but after getting in touch with him, she realized that it seemed like that.

At least, even Ji Cheyu, who had no name in the original plot, could easily capture him.

Thinking of this, she was relieved, and no longer worried about the news from Huo Ye.

"We might as well guess for ourselves," she said to Ji Cheyu, "What do you think the mission is?"

"Actually, there may not be any necessary tasks in the third trial." Ji Cheyu said, "The academy just uses this trial to observe everyone's character, and there is no requirement to complete any tasks to enter the academy."

"Then we can do whatever we want?" A bold idea suddenly popped up in Jiang Qiongxing's mind.

Hearing the unexplained excitement in her tone, Ji Cheyu laughed: "What do you want to do?"

Jiang Qiongxing pointed at the imperial capital in the distance without hesitation, and uttered wild words: "Overthrow this dynasty that uses living sacrifices!"

At this time, hundreds of immortal cultivators were crowded on the highest platform of the altar. Although the altar was built magnificently, the highest platform was not spacious. Jiang Qiongxing didn't deliberately lower her voice when she spoke. Therefore, as soon as she said these words, there were coughing sounds behind her.

Ji Cheyu was silent for a moment, and then said: "I'm afraid there will be too little time."

"That's right." Jiang Qiongxing didn't take it seriously, "I just said casually, you don't have to care, I won't really take you to attack the imperial capital."

"Where do we go next?" someone asked.

Jiang Qiongxing thought for a while: "We let go of [-] sacrifices, so the emperor of the Shenrui Dynasty will definitely trouble us. We don't have many people, so why don't we run away first."

"This... If you all want to leave this place, I know a place to go." A voice sounded.

Everyone looked at the man who led the way.

"To the west of the Shenrui Dynasty, there is a small country called Zhu. Although it is not very powerful, it is in a special position, easy to defend and difficult to attack. His Majesty sent troops to fight several times, but they all failed." The man who led the way said, "Now that the flood has receded, I know a road leading to that place. It should not be flooded. If you want to go, I can guide you."

Jiang Qiongxing looked at everyone: "Will you go?"

"Isn't that an escape..."

"Go, if you don't go, wait for the emperor to send more people, we can only wait for death."

"Fortunately, when they were on the island, they sent the group of people from Yulong Palace, otherwise they might not be able to fool them."

Someone heard this sentence and lowered his voice to confirm to the person next to him: "So there is actually no explosion symbol?"

"That's right, do you really believe it?" His companion laughed, "We have been busy on the island all day, did you see who buried what talisman?"

The man suddenly realized, and looked at Jiang Qiongxing in awe.

It sounds like it's true.

The people in the ear are arguing endlessly, divided into two factions, each with its own reasons, it seems that there is no way to reach a unification for a while.

"Well," Jiang Qiongxing didn't intend to be a leader at first, and immediately unloaded the burden. "Anyway, we have successfully escaped, and there is no need for everyone to stay together. Those who are willing to go will follow this elder brother, and those who want to stay will meet them on the ship over there. By the way, we will bring this news to the people on the ship, so that if they also want to go to Zhuguo, they can go west and join us, how about it?"

Everyone has no opinion.

Jiang Qiongxing led a group of immortal cultivators who decided to leave, and followed the guides to the west.

After leaving the range of the altar, they quickly set foot on a piece of wet land.

The floodwaters had just receded, and there were dead branches and leaves everywhere on the ground, and there were fallen tree trunks lying in the middle of the road.

Pedestrians worked together to push the tree trunk blocking the road into the water on the side of the road.

——The terrain on both sides of the road is too low, and the water has not receded.

The man leading the way introduced to Jiang Qiongxing and the others as he walked: "Both sides of this road are fertile fields. At this time of the year, the fields are full of people busy harvesting, and it is very lively."

Looking at the vast water surface, Wei Yulu couldn't help but sigh: "I don't know how they will survive this year."

It didn't take long before they knew the answer.

The farther you go west, the more pedestrians are on the road. These people do not know where they came from, and they all hurriedly left this flooded land while the water level was lowering.

Trees are moved to death, people are moved to live, and everyone is not stupid.

A young female cultivator worriedly asked the guide, "Is there really no flood in Zhuguo?" She was very worried that they had worked so hard to get there, only to find that the place was not much better.

"There won't be. Zhuguo is on the mountain." The guide said with a smile.

A whole country on mountains?How small is this country...

Jiang Qiongxing changed his mind: No, maybe this is just a way of saying "high altitude".

In order to save spiritual power, this group of immortal cultivators, like all pedestrians, traveled on foot. Fortunately, the physical strength of the immortal cultivators far surpassed ordinary people, and no one complained of being tired.

But in addition to this advantage, they are now indispensable for eating and sleeping.

At night, everyone, like everyone else, slept on the ground by the roadside.

At dawn the next day, Gongsun Yu led a group of immortal cultivators to catch up from behind and join them.

"Just us going to build the country?" Jiang Qiongxing swept across the crowd behind him.

There are only more than 1000 people by visual estimate.

Shangguan Tao and Wei's brothers and sisters are still there, but Qin Songzhu and other Xun Haozong people have not come. It seems that there are quite a few people who plan to confront the Shenrui Dynasty.

"After all, this is a trial. Leaving at this time, in the eyes of many people, is equivalent to running away." Ji Cheyu whispered behind her.

Jiang Qiongxing looked at him after hearing the words: "Then what do you think? Is my decision right or wrong?"

Ji Cheyu looked into her eyes.

Although this is a question sentence, the girl's eyes are clear and firm, and she obviously has an answer in her heart.

The corners of Ji Cheyu's lips raised a little: "I trust your judgment."

Jiang Qiongxing also laughed.

As she followed the crowd, she said to him: "Actually, when I was young, I was also a reckless person. It was not until I encountered some things and paid the price that I gradually became like this."

Temporary patience does not mean winning or losing, and she retreats to build the country, it does not mean admitting defeat.

"It's hard to imagine." Ji Cheyu said.

He remembered the first time he saw Jiang Qiongxing, in the barren and dilapidated villa, a boy dressed as a little girl, with big black and white eyes, almost saw through his disguise at a glance.

He was already a great kid at that time.

Jiang Qiongxing, who still doesn't know that "Sister Yu" is someone close to her, thought that the first time they met was in Tanyan Town, so she took it for granted, "I was not young when you saw me, people will grow up."

The smile in Ji Cheyu's eyes deepened.
