Lord of Deception

Chapter 18 The choice given by the two elders

Everyone lifted Erhei out of the hole, and when they saw Li Chang who had stayed up all night, they still looked like they were paralyzed with fear.

The black goat kept switching between being frightened, with its limbs stiff and trembling, begging for mercy.

The director held his crutches with both hands and looked at the man and the sheep lying on the ground with a gloomy look. He was silent for a while and then waved to everyone.

"You guys go out first, while Yu Ziqing and Erhan stay."

After everyone had gone out, Lao Yang walked out of the kiln.

The chief and Lao Yang looked at each other, and the chief said to Yu Zi.

"Have you thought about how to deal with these two guys?"

"Uh, how do you deal with it according to the chief." Yu Ziqing was a little surprised. He still knew it well. In the village, he would never overstep his authority in making such decisions. He always let the chief make the decision.

A smile appeared on the Li Chang's face and he looked at the old sheep.

"I was right, you were wrong this time."

Lao Yang grinned and didn't take it seriously. When he knew about this, he thought Yu Ziqing would kill the infiltrator on the spot.

Being decisive in killing when encountering trouble is an advantage in today's environment, but he once taught Yu Ziqing many things, including some about killing. Defending the enemy and killing people is something he will inevitably encounter in the future, but Being too impulsive is not a good thing.

There are countless ways in this world to track down the murderer, it just depends on whether the opposite force is willing to pay a huge price.

Especially when you don't want to expose yourself, it is a bad idea to attack and kill the opponent when they meet.

Those who dare to do this are not afraid of others knowing that it was him who did it, such as Mu Zhiqiu of Langya Academy Martial Arts Academy.

But Yu Ziqing doesn't have such strength and means now, so it's always good to restrain himself.

"This black goat is a monster. It belongs to the seventh floor. It has many goat herders under its command. It is one of the people in charge of the spy in the seventh floor.

Generally speaking, the Seventh Floor is a force that steals and sells information everywhere, but in Daqian, Dazhen, and Dali, they are all classified as evil, and everyone can punish them.

And this person, according to the tradition of the seventh floor, should be the one who controls the black goat. Their combination, plus the many sheepherders under their command, is a standard spy team.

Every year because of them, countless people are forced to leave their homes and are trafficked to various places. Countless people have their families broken up and their lives lost. As long as they are discovered in Daqian, they will definitely be struck by thunder. "

After Lao Yang finished speaking, he looked at Yu Ziqing.

The chief also continued.

"A few decades ago, when the wasteland was not so desolate, people who could not survive near the mines would come to the village, and some who had children who could not afford to raise them would also send their children to In the village, if you come here, you can at least have a mouthful of food and won't starve to death.

But in recent years, the wilderness has become increasingly dilapidated and depressed. There are fewer and fewer people living in the wilderness for a long time, and villages are disappearing one after another.

Those villages are made up of people who simply cannot move away, nor can they cross the wilderness to make a living. They can only be trapped in the wilderness, carry on, and eventually die completely.

Later, with the help of the sheepherder, the village took them across the wilderness and came to the village. On the one hand, they had a chance to survive, and on the other hand, it also replenished the population of the village. "

When the chief said this, he paused slightly, with a hint of hesitation in his tone.

"Have you not noticed? There are no children in the village at all."

"I discovered it..." Yu Ziqing nodded. He discovered it on the first day he came here, but he had never asked about it. He knew that such questions must be sensitive.

"Because no one in the village can have their own offspring, the people brought by the sheepherders are the offspring.

I hate those sheepherders, but I have to make a deal with those sheepherders. Apart from them, no one will bring people here anymore. Without them, those people will not be able to survive if they continue to stay in the wilderness.

Today, I heard Lao Yang say that the weather in the wilderness is getting weirdly colder and colder, and everything is extinct. I am afraid that there are no villages that still exist, and there are no living people. You are the last people to come. "

After the old sheep and the chief each finished speaking, they looked at Yu Ziqing together. The chief pointed at the black goat and the man in black robe.

"Now, you decide what to do with them."

"Grandpa..." Erhan scratched his head and looked at him in confusion.

"Shut up." The chief scolded Erhan rudely, not letting him speak at all. And looking at Erhan's look, it was clear that he didn't understand anything. The more he looked at him, the angrier he became. In addition to gaining muscle and strength, he couldn't do anything else. Nothing has grown.

Such a thing, how dare you leave the village in his hands in the future.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. The chief swung his cane and hit Erhan hard on the forehead.

Erhan remained motionless, staring blankly at the crutch that was tapping on his forehead. After a pause, he let out an ouch, covered his forehead and squatted on the ground, pretending to howl twice.

Yu Ziqing remained silent, looking at the old sheep and the chief in front of him.

He now somewhat understands why the people in the village seem to be quite normal even though they don't look normal.

They were once a group of people who could no longer survive and were about to starve to death. Their obsession with starving to death was so great that they would rather have no blood descendants than seize the village as the last life-saving straw.

The people brought by the sheepherder are who they used to be, and they come here to gamble their lives.

If you win the bet and stay alive and take root in the village, you will be blessed by nature; if you lose the bet, you will commit your life and have no regrets.

It's not that the sheepherders need the village, but that the village needs the sheepherders. Without the sheepherders to take them as guards, and after making livestock, the dependence on survival materials is greatly reduced, and it is impossible for ordinary people to cross the dangerous wasteland and reach the village.

But what Lao Yang said was on the other side. According to Lao Yang, these two people had done many evil things. They were not only active in the wilderness as shepherds under Black Goat, but also spread to Daqian and Dali, those who lived a good life, including Children are not spared.

According to Yu Ziqing's simple concept, these two guys are dead.

Now the two elders have left the choice to Yu Ziqing and let Yu Ziqing choose.

Yu Ziqing was silent for a long time, and the two elders didn't rush him, just waiting quietly.

Now, either kill these two, or make a deal, and let them continue to kidnap people from further places, such as the borders of Daqian and Dazhen, to save the life of the village. The wasteland is in such a horrible state, and it borders the wasteland. The place is bound to not be a good place where every family has a surplus of food.

From the perspective of the villagers, this is the only hope in their hearts and the anchor point for survival. The survival of the village must be the first priority. Anyone who hinders is the mortal enemy. It is impossible to let them stand on the sidelines. From the perspective of being a righteous person who hates evil as much as he hates evil in the traditional sense.

He lowered his head and looked at the two guys on the ground. They were immediately so frightened that they rolled their eyes. The black goat was even more frightened until he peed.

Yu Ziqing didn't know how many ecstasy drugs these two had taken, how their senses were distorted, and he didn't know what he looked like in their eyes. Anyway, it must be quite scary.

"I'm going to detoxify them separately first, then ask for some information, and then kill them after asking.

Even if they are released this time, they will not be honest. Even if they send more people later, no one knows whether the people inside are all poor people who cannot survive. Some of the people sent this time have crooked minds. guy.

Next time, even if they are greedy for the Jinlan Mine and dare not do it openly, they will definitely plant some hidden dangers on purpose.

Furthermore, if you give in once, they will think you can give in a second time.

The wasteland has been ruined, and the village can no longer rely on them. Since they can't have children, they will slowly think of ways to research and see if they can find a solution. See if it is due to environmental reasons. Just change the environment, or if the people have already died. Problem.

It's really no longer possible. After I leave, I will try to find a suitable place where I can settle down, and then I will find a way to safely pick up the people in the village.

I think no one in the village cares about the minerals here. "

Yu Zi finished speaking in a clear breath and looked at the two elders.

The two elders did not hesitate and immediately nodded together.

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

Yu Ziqing was a little surprised, but then he realized that the two elders were not asking him to choose between the two.

Just wanted to see what he would do.

Maybe no matter what he chooses, the two elders will nod.

Glancing at Erhan next to him, Yu Ziqing suddenly understood. They just wanted the younger generation to start taking charge of the family. How to choose is not a test at all, but what to do next is the test.

As for the village chief, he truly regarded him as one of his own. The village chief definitely knew better than him about the difficulties the village was encountering now, and he also understood that changes must be made.

At the same time, I also understand better that the core of the village is the people, those who seek to survive, not the land.

Yu Ziqing looked at Lao Yang. He must have told the chief many things. Otherwise, no matter how enlightened the chief was, he would not suddenly make such a big change.

Yu Ziqing walked out and went to the kitchen to refine an antidote to the ecstasy. He asked Erhan to remove the limbs and joints of the black-robed man Heiwu, clamp his torso and neck, and then fed him an antidote. antidote.

After taking a portion of the antidote, the man in black robe was still a little confused, but his consciousness became much clearer.

He saw that everyone else had returned to normal, and his hearing had also returned to normal. Even when he looked at Yu Ziqing, Yu Ziqing still looked that indescribable.

"I ask, you answer."

"Ask whatever you want, I promise you will tell me everything." The man in black robe knelt on the ground, shivering, and it was difficult to breathe. He did not dare to raise his head for fear of taking another look.

"Name."

"Black Friday." After saying that, Yu Ziqing was afraid that the name was fake, so he quickly added: "I didn't have a name when I was a child. It wasn't until I was accepted into the organization that I was named Black Five."

"Identity, origin."

"I am the reins of the Black Goat on the seventh floor. I have been working with the Black Goat to gather information for the organization for many years..." The man in black robe was afraid that if he didn't give enough details, he would be thought to be hiding something. He simply knew everything and said it all. , and it took him half an hour to finish.

"The skills, techniques, magical powers, and magic weapons of practice."

"The "Mist Jianzhen" and "Secret of the West Wind" on the seventh floor have matching spells. If you don't have magical powers, there are only two magic weapons..."

The man in black robe said, pointing to his arms. After receiving permission, he took out a storage bag, took out several books and two magical instruments, and placed them on the ground together.

After a brief explanation, great cooperation, and after struggling for a long time, Yu Ziqing looked at the rusty sword in his arms, and he didn't know when it had passed the judgment.

He moved on to the next question.

"Where is the station on the seventh floor?"

"In the northwest of Daqian..." The man in black robe looked dull and spoke numbly. After saying a few words, his voice suddenly stopped.

With a look of horror on his face, he pinched his neck with both hands. A ring of tattoos appeared on his neck. The tattoos bloomed with a faint light, and instantly condensed into one stream and disappeared into his head.

In the blink of an eye, the man in black robe slowly fell to the ground, his pupils slowly dilated.

died.
