Chapter 351: Puppets and Cannon Fodder
Chapter 351 Puppet and Cannon Fodder
"By the way, why are the Xian brothers and sisters here?" After chatting for a while, Lin Xuan still couldn't restrain his curiosity and asked casually.
The two brothers and sisters looked at each other with a somewhat sad expression on their faces. Xu Feng sighed. Although the past was hard to look back on, Lin Xuan was kind to him and he didn't want to hide it.
It turns out that there is an opposition between good and evil in Youzhou, and the Tianshan Sect, in order to continue the inheritance of the Taoism, thought carefully and finally joined the side of the three giants.
The original intention of doing this was to avoid disaster. After all, if a strong sect like Tianshan did not express its position, it would most likely be suppressed by both good and evil parties at the same time.
The decision made by the master is not wrong.
But when people are under the eaves, they have to lower their heads. Once the sheep enters the tiger's mouth, they have no choice but to do so.
"How do you say this when a sheep enters the tiger's mouth?" Lin Xuan showed a look of interest on his face.
"Senior, I don't know. Those three giants are really nothing." Before Xu Feng had time to explain, her sister said angrily: "Originally, we thought that by submitting to the three giants, we would be able to get some care. Although we have to be driven by them,
But it’s worth it to survive this crisis, who knows…”
"how?"
"They don't treat us as allies at all, but as slaves. They don't care about the life and death of Tianshan disciples."
"Slave?" Lin Xuan couldn't help but glanced at the girl in front of him: "It's not that exaggerated, is it? Fellow Taoist's words are a bit too much."
"Alas, although the little sister is naughty, her words are indeed not embellished. That's the truth." Xu Feng sighed: "A war broke out between good and evil, and we disciples of the sect who are attached to them are treated as cannon fodder. We are involved in dangerous tasks.
.Almost everything is left to us, and if there is a slight mistake, severe penalties will be imposed."
"Yes, in just a short time, one-third of our disciples of the Tianshan Sect have been killed or injured." Xu Yin's pretty face showed a trace of sadness, and her tone was full of dissatisfaction with the three giants. "
"Um."
Lin Xuan nodded. He was noncommittal. Thinking about it carefully, although such a thing is cruel, it is also reasonable. The good and the evil are competing for the hegemony of Youzhou's cultivation world, but both sides naturally cherish the feathers of their disciples, so this first
In the Bo War, they naturally used the puppet sects attached to them as cannon fodder.
People who do not work for themselves will be punished by heaven and earth. The law of the jungle is more vividly reflected in the world of cultivation.
Lin Xuan couldn't find anything to comfort him, and for a moment, the three of them fell into silence.
After a long time, Lin Xuan spoke again: "I see, but why did the Xian brothers and sisters come to this Hundred Thousand Mountains again? Is it also a task arranged by the three giants, asking you to collect elixirs and herbs?"
"This..." Xu Feng's face turned pale and he was speechless.
Lin Xuan smiled slightly and said considerately: "If there are any difficulties, Brother Xu, there is no need to talk about it. I'm just asking casually, don't take it to heart."
After listening to Lin Xuan's words, both brothers and sisters were very grateful. Xu Feng gritted his teeth and said: "Senior, you are serious. You saved my life and my little sister's. How dare you hide it from you? That's right. We are not out on a mission.
Instead, he left the faction and fled privately."
"What?" After hearing this, even Lin Xuan's city couldn't help but feel moved. Leaving the sect and fleeing was not a small crime. Of course, he was not in a hurry to ask anything. Since the other party had already started.
Naturally there will be a beginning and an end.
"What happened is this. About two months ago, my younger sister and dozens of fellow disciples were ordered to garrison a certain crystal mine. Originally, this place was remote and not attracting attention. Dozens of foundation-building monks gathered together.
There should be no problem with safety. Who knows that man is not as good as God, but at this juncture, a large number of middle-grade crystals were suddenly unearthed in this ordinary crystal mine."
"Mid-grade crystal?" Lin Xuan raised his brows, and there was a faint flash of light in his eyes.
As we all know, crystals contain rich spiritual energy from heaven and earth, and their role in the world of cultivation is no different from currency. At the same time, crystals are also divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower. The higher the level, the more abundant the amount of spiritual energy inside. At the same time, making
When using weapons or fighting skills, the effect will be greater.
However, in this world, more than 90% of the crystals mined from crystal mines are low-grade, and there are very few mineral deposits that can produce medium-grade crystals. Every time they appear in the world, there will be a bloody storm.
Originally, this news was kept strictly confidential within the Big Three, but somehow it was leaked out inexplicably.
So the Demon Lord sent a large number of his men to attack.
Although the senior officials of Zhengdao quickly sent reinforcements, it was a little late.
The result can be imagined. Although there is a formation to support here, in the final analysis, there are only dozens of foundation-building stage disciples, while on the demonic side, there are seven or eight masters of the pill condensation stage alone, plus several times more
Depending on the strength of the opponent's troops, you can know the result almost without fighting.
The Tianshan disciples stationed at the crystal mine are not idiots. There is a huge disparity in strength between the two sides. Fighting against the other side is like an egg against a rock!
After everyone got together to discuss it, they saw that nothing could be done and chose to retreat.
Strictly speaking, there is nothing wrong with what they did. After all, staying here won't change anything. The only difference is that there will be a few more innocent souls who died in vain.
But no one expected that a huge disaster would happen just because of this.
When the crystal mine was taken away, the top leaders of the Big Three were very angry, so they wanted to severely punish the Tianshan disciples who were guarding the crystal mine at the time, for fleeing from the battlefield.
"Senior Lin, do you think they are being unreasonable and actually asking us to carry those monks in the elixir condensation stage? This is not asking for death." Talking about the events of that day, Xu Yin frowned slightly, but the look on her face remained the same.
Full of anger.
Lin Xuan sighed and said a few words of comfort, but in his heart, he had his own opinions. In his opinion, the other party also had his own considerations when doing this.
The three righteous sects, headed by Biyunshan, have ruled Youzhou for tens of thousands of years. Naturally, their top leaders cannot be idlers. The loss of crystal mines is nothing more than a fault of war. They cannot really see this.
Not coming out.
The reason why we are still unreasonable and insist on punishing those Tianshan disciples who escaped from the battle is actually because the drunkard is not interested in drinking, and the purpose is to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.
After all, they also know in their hearts that this kind of thing of letting the sects that are attached to them be used as cannon fodder is very unpopular. There are already complaints and even regrets, and the calls to break away from them are getting louder and louder.
Those Nascent Soul stage old monsters would naturally not sit back and watch this situation develop. The current situation was naturally impossible to appease with gentle means, so they decided to use bloody methods to quell the dissatisfaction below. It is a pity that the dozens of Tianshan people
