Traveling through ancient times to survive

Zhao Qing exchanged a few more moves with the six gods' envoys, then deliberately exposed a flaw and was captured by the six men.

The man in sackcloth clothes finally showed up. He looked at Zhao Qing with burning eyes. Zhao Qing almost couldn't pretend anymore because of the stare.

"Great! Another great body for making a divine messenger!"

Zhao Qing struggled and shouted loudly: "Do you know who I am? My father is a general. Let me go immediately. If you dare to touch a hair of yours, be careful or my father will send people to raze your bandit nest!"

The man's face changed, and he saw through the lie immediately. He smiled again and said, "Little girl, you are not honest. If your father is really a general, would he let a girl like you run around?"

Zhao Qing's eyes were panicked for a moment, but she immediately calmed down. However, anyone with eyes could see that she was bluffing.

"My father is the general! If you dare to do anything, my father will never let you go!"

As expected, the man sneered, begging for mercy with a malicious smile on his face: "Oh my! Your father is a general, I'm so scared! Miss, please spare my life!"

Zhao Qing's eyes turned red with anger. The man ordered, "Take him away!"

Zhao Qing was tied up and carried up the mountain. Along the way, Zhao Qing maintained his persona, with a pitiful expression but a tough mouth that kept cursing.

"You bandits! You dare to rob people in broad daylight. Do you have any respect for the law?"

The man burst into laughter. Zhao Qing was furious: "What are you laughing at?"

"I laugh at your naivety. You actually still believe that there are royal laws in this world! Ah, no, I wasn't strict enough. Royal laws are the laws that serve the royal family. Are you a royal relative? If you are, I will kneel down and beg for mercy without saying a word. Otherwise, your father is really a general, and you can't escape today!"

Zhao Qing said with disdain: "Boasting! Who gave you the courage to ignore the general? I don't believe it!"

The man explained in a good mood: "Aren't you from Xuzhou, little girl? Haven't you seen how the people of Xuzhou live?"

Zhao Qing stopped talking. The man hummed a little tune all the way. He thought that once he delivered this excellent material of the divine messenger to the sacred tree, he would surely make a great contribution and a wonderful life would be just around the corner.

Just a few months ago, he was struggling on the brink of life and death like the refugees heading south, but now his life is completely different. It turns out that only people without conscience can live a good life!

In this world, kindness is a luxury. The more conscientious ordinary people are, the faster they die. For example, his companions who were captured and brought up the mountain with him insisted on sticking to that useless bottom line. Now they have all been reincarnated.

After a while, these people walked through a man-made path and crossed the mountain road. Suddenly, the view in front of them opened up. Not far away, a mountain village stood among the mountains and woods.

Zhao Qing's heart trembled. The person behind this was indeed not a simple person. This cottage looked ordinary, but every detail was exquisite. Although the wood used was not precious, all the wood looked like it was printed out from the same mold. It must have been carefully selected.

When you look closer, you can see exquisite wood reliefs on the handrails. No matter how disguised it is, it cannot conceal the exquisite aesthetic taste inadvertently revealed by the owner. Ordinary bandits do not have the time and energy to decorate the house like this.

Zhao Qing was still thinking as the six people carrying her walked straight past the village. The man in sackcloth clothes was stunned but did not dare to stop them.

He watched Zhao Qing being carried away, and then immediately ran into the stronghold to report to the second in command.

"Second Master, the messenger of God directly carried away the people at the foot of the mountain today."

“Oh? That’s strange.”

The second in command frowned. The sacred tree had never actively chosen anyone. The tree just had to accept whatever they gave it. The current changes were not a good sign. Could it be that there was something abnormal about this person?

"What's wrong with this person? Please tell me in detail."

The man said flatteringly, "This girl is very good at fighting. She fought with six divine messengers for several moves before she was captured."

The second in command discovered the blind spot: "Wait, six divine messengers?"

The man hurriedly explained, "Second Master, you misunderstood. I did say that you only needed the help of two divine messengers, but the sacred tree specially sent down six divine messengers, so I didn't dare to ask more."

The second in command pondered, what was so special about this person that the God Tree, which had never been involved in anything, took the initiative to arrest him? He should go and take a look.

"By the way, where is the previous secret messenger?"

The man's forehead was covered with sweat: "This..."

"Alright," the second in command glanced at the man, not angry, "Go and ask someone to bring the secret agent back!"

"Yes!"

After the man took the order and left, the second in command straightened his sleeves, went around to the back of the village, and walked towards the sacred tree.

Zhao Qing was being carried closer and closer to the sacred tree. Xiaolu was screaming in Zhao Qing's mind at first, but now he was silent. Zhao Qing also sensed the breath of a powerful creature in the air.

Turning a hillside, Zhao Qing saw an unusually tall willow tree. In Zhao Qing's perception, the energy level of the willow tree surpassed all creatures she had seen before, and it was much stronger than the most powerful white tiger before. Zhao Qing knew that this willow tree was the real boss.

When we came near the willow tree, we saw that there was no grass growing within the root system of the willow tree. There was only one willow tree occupying a large area.

The six gods put Zhao Qing down and stood aside motionless, while the branches of the willow tree impatiently stretched out towards Zhao Qing. To be precise, they stretched out towards Zhao Qing's waist, which was Xiaolu's hiding place. Xiaolu was frightened and screamed. Zhao Qing quickly rolled backwards to avoid the willow branches.

As she dodged, her whole body shook, and the hemp rope that tied her was instantly broken into pieces. She quickly pulled out the little green thing from her waist and threw it towards the attacking willow branch.

The willow branches were pulled apart, the sacred tree stopped moving, and a voice that could not be distinguished between male and female was transmitted into the minds of the two people.

"Little vine, you have also developed intelligence, right? I smell the scent of the same kind from you."

Xiaolu was stunned. Zhao Qing didn't dare to send a message for fear that Liu Shu would hear it. She signaled Xiaolu with her eyes to continue.

Xiaolu said in a confused voice: "Yes, you have also developed intelligence? Why did you tie me and my master here?"

The willow tree was furious, and its branches were dancing wildly: "What? A mere human can be the master of us domain masters? Did she deceive you when you were still immature? How dare a tiny ant like her! I will make her into a puppet right now!"

Zhao Qing secretly thought that something was wrong and tensed his muscles, ready for battle.

Xiaolu shouted to stop him, so loud that his voice broke: "No! Absolutely not!"

"Why? Do you want to associate with such ants?" Willow's voice turned cold.

Xiaolu thought quickly: "She is my savior! Yes, that's right, she saved my life, I swear to protect her!"

Willow calmed down again: "So that's how it is. Although it's a blessing for this ant to save you, since you've already vowed to protect her, then spare her life. As the darlings of heaven, we must keep our promise. After she dies, you can come find me. After all, humans only live for a few dozen years, which is just a blink of an eye in our long life."
