Chapter 719: Bait
Xiaoya has not eaten a full meal for a long time, she is six years old this year and has been living a rich life since she was born, Jinghua City as the capital of Huating State, although it is not recognized by those old diehards in name, but this royal city has always had a very important position, and because of the strong strength of Huating State, Jinghua City has always been a representative of wealth and stability.
It's just that Xiaoya can't understand why a place full of laughter in the past has begun to become like this not long ago. Her family is gone, and now she has fled here just under the protection of her kind neighbors. Although the neighbors also pity this little girl, but now there are frequent wars in the city, although the monks of Huating Kingdom often come to the rescue, and even send food after the war, but the food is never enough after all, the little girl is weak, let alone grabbing something to eat, even if it is something in hand, it may not be able to keep, the last time she ate clean food was three days ago, now Xiaoya just wants to have a white flour steamed bun to eat, as long as she eats a whole white flour steamed bun, she will definitely be satisfied.
Xiaoya is still holding on to her fantasy of wanting to eat white-flour steamed buns, but now the other people in the city who are hiding here with Xiaoya are already desperate, Xiaoya is not sensible does not mean that others are not sensible, although these ordinary people have no cultivation, but they all have brains. Ever since the Holy Alliance and those dragons attacked Jinghua City, although the situation in the city was very complicated until now, the monks of Huating Kingdom would still reluctantly send people to protect them, and most importantly, they would send them over to eat.
In fact, these people also know very well that in such a situation, it is a blessing that they can have such a safe place to take refuge, and there are too many ordinary people in Jinghua City who have died. Although it is not a rule in the cultivation world that civilians cannot be slaughtered during monk wars, there is always a special explanation for special circumstances. Once a siege war breaks out, if the defending side still has to defend the city after the protective circle has been broken, at that time, as long as the besieging side does not deliberately massacre civilians in the city, no one will be held accountable at all.
For example, now, too many ordinary people have died in the city, and they are not deliberately targeted, but in the war, the speed of these ordinary people is too slow and slow, and even many people are buried under the impact of spirit cannons, not to mention those real dragons who are earth-shattering as soon as they strike.
The people hiding here with Xiaoya are already the last people alive in Jinghua City, and their number is not small, there are tens of thousands of people, but since three days ago, even the monks of Huating Kingdom have stopped coming to protect them, and they have not followed up with food. Only a few able-bodied people had the courage to go out and find some food, but most of it was just for their own families. There is nothing wrong with such a situation, after all, people do not destroy heaven and earth for their own sake. In the midst of such a catastrophe, there are a few people who can really take risks for the sake of other people's stomachs.
In fact, what these people don't know is that it's not that the Huating monks have stopped coming to the rescue, but that the Huating monks who dared to come to the rescue have been killed too fiercely, and in this case, their more important task is to hold important places such as Wuyue Island and the palace, and now the war in Jinghua City revolves around these places. Water battles still break out in the major waters of Jinghua City, but no matter what kind of battle it is, it is already too far away from these people.
Suddenly, Xiaoya heard a panicked shout from Uncle Zhang beside her, and then not only Uncle Zhang, but also the other neighbors around her began to become frightened, and for a while, the last place of refuge for ordinary people began to become very chaotic. Xiaoya didn't know what was going on, but at a young age, she heard other people around her shouting like this, and the little girl began to yell and scream along, she did it more thoroughly, and soon she was already crying into a big flower face.
At this time, the reason why these people became so panicked was because they saw something they didn't want to see - a void beast began to rush towards them. For these ordinary people, the Void Beast is a representative of the disaster, in the past, some of these people have seen the Void Beast, and even not long ago they saw the Void Beast attacking here, but at that time, because of the help of the Huating Monk here, these people finally escaped and died. But now that these Void Beasts have rushed over again, and their numbers have obviously increased, and in such a situation, these ordinary people have become panicked, and there is certainly no way for them to deal with such a situation.
"Uncle Zhang, Uncle Zhang, what's wrong, why do you have to call it. Xiaoya cried for a long time, and seeing that the voices around her were still flustered, she finally couldn't help but ask.
It's just that in desperation, Uncle Zhang didn't have any reaction at all, he looked very brave with his strong body, but in the face of the impact of those void beasts, this strong man was now numb in his hands and feet, and his face was pale. Before escaping here, he had been hunted down by other Void Beasts, and he had even seen many of his companions die tragically under the claws and fangs of Void Beasts, and thinking of the tragic deaths of those companions, this strong man didn't dare to think about the scene after these Void Beasts rushed here.
These people have begun to run back in despair, and Xiaoya was pushed by these people so that she could only run back with them, but she was soon pushed down by the flow of people, and for a while her crying was also covered by the screams around her. And at this time, Xiaoya was suddenly grabbed by a big hand, and then Xiaoya felt empty, and the next moment she found that she was already sitting on a person's shoulder.
This person's shoulders are very broad and thick, as if they are stronger than Uncle Zhang's, Xiaoya coldly looked down at the person holding her, she saw that this uncle was naked, just like the ordinary crew she had seen before. But just when Xiaoya was still thinking about who this uncle was, she had been gently placed on the ground. Then Xiaoya watched as this shirtless uncle rushed towards those Void Beasts, and at this moment, in the face of the large number of Void Beasts opposite, Xiaoya became one of the few people who did not turn around and run away, but stood in place in a daze.
The person who rushed out at this time was naturally Han Xiao, although the current battle situation was chaotic, but it was not too much trouble for Han Xiao, he just wanted to infiltrate Jinghua City alone, such a thing was too simple for him. And just after he rushed over, he saw the situation in front of him, and after saving the little girl who was almost trampled to death by those panicked people, Han Xiao rushed towards the void beasts on the opposite side.
Xiaoya watched the topless uncle rush halfway through the fire all over his body, and when she saw that the uncle who saved her suddenly burst into flames, Xiaoya immediately screamed in fright, and covered her eyes in panic, as if this terrible situation in front of her would not happen after covering her eyes. It's just that Xiaoya is still not at ease after all, so she slowly raised a few fingers and secretly began to look at the situation in front of her again. To her great surprise, the uncle who was on fire all over his body did not die, and had become "Uncle Burning Man". The little girl was stunned to see Uncle Burning Man facing those void beasts as if he was conjuring a trick, and when he raised his hand, a flash of fire flew out, and if he shook his fingers, there would be a splash of fire blades.
In such a situation, so many Void Beasts were completely wiped out by that one Uncle Burning Man, seeing that so many monsters were burned into flames, and then finally became ashes between heaven and earth, although Xiaoya didn't know what was going on, she still jumped up happily immediately, clapping her little hands while jumping: "It's so powerful, Uncle Burning Man is so powerful, Uncle Fire Blade won, he won." ”
Xiaoya's voice is not very loud, in fact, it has not attracted much attention at this time, but the battle in the distance has attracted everyone's attention, of course these people do not want to escape, after all, in this case, they also know that if they leave here, their situation will be more dangerous, just because they saw the Void Beast rushing over, these people do not intend to sit here and wait for death, so they will think about escaping.
Seeing this situation, these people are now very excited, after all, at this time, of course, they hope that someone will come to save them. Now seeing those Void Beasts being slaughtered, these people certainly feel the hope of survival, after all, if they really escape, they can't survive and die. The Void Beasts that have been exterminated now are what these people want to see the most, and it is precisely because of this situation that these people now truly feel the hope of surviving.
Han Xiao stood in the middle of the battlefield, looking at the Void Beasts that had been exterminated around him, and his mood was already extremely heavy. Although the current situation in Jinghua City is very complicated, Han Xiao is still very clear that no matter how complicated the situation of the battle in Jinghua City is, it is impossible to be complicated to the extent that there are Void Beasts to kill ordinary people, especially in this situation. Obviously, in fact, this was definitely such an arrangement under the control of the people of the Holy Alliance, and if it wasn't for their deliberate arrangement, it would not have been possible for such a coincidence.
"Uncle Burning Man, are you an immortal?" When Han Xiao was still in a daze, an immature voice gently floated from behind him.
Hearing this voice, Han Xiao slowly turned his head, looked at the little girl who was already a little flower, and sighed lightly, war is always the most terrible thing, although these ordinary people have always been the most protected in the war, but so what, in this pure world of the jungle, what happened just now happened. Even if it was later discovered that these Void Beasts were the people of the Holy Alliance who deliberately let them go and slaughter these people, it would be useless, these people were dead and dead, and no one would avenge them.
After Han Xiao destroyed these Void Beasts, dozens of monks appeared in front of Han Xiao, they didn't know Han Xiao, but they obviously had no hostility towards Han Xiao. And seeing these monks who appeared, Han Xiao knew that they must be monks who belonged to the Huating Kingdom. Just looking at their guilty expressions now, Han Xiao said expressionlessly: "Find a way to find a safe place for them, no matter how bad it is, you can't let them be slaughtered in such an environment."
These Huating monks were actually ordered to protect these people here, and dozens of monks protected tens of thousands of people, which seemed a bit ridiculous to say, but in the current Jinghua City, Huating Guo's own troops were already stretched, and these dozens of monks were squeezed out by the generals of Huating Kingdom. It's just that just now, when they saw so many Void Beasts coming to kill these people, these Huating Kingdom monks suddenly made an astonishing decision - not to save people!
Looking at the embarrassed expression on the face of the Huating Nation Cultivator now, Han Xiao had already guessed their decision just now, but although Han Xiao had just come here, he couldn't say anything to punish them for this decision. In fact, these Huating monks are really helpless, it's not that they don't want to save these people, but these people are now simply the bait left here by those monks of the Holy Alliance, and the monks of Huating Kingdom always need to send people to rescue for the safety of these people, and as a result, as long as someone comes, they will be attacked or completely surrounded.
For the sake of these people, the Huating Monks have already lost three waves of people here in succession, and it is precisely because of this situation that the Huating Monks who came to the rescue this time completely chose not to save people. It's not that I don't want to save it, it's that I really have no way or ability to save it. If it hadn't been for Han Xiao's action just now, even if they came forward to stop it, they wouldn't have been able to stop the impact of these Void Beasts at all.
These Huating Kingdom monks didn't want to think much about this anymore, and when they saw Han Xiao's actions, one of them opened his mouth and asked, "I don't know who this lord is?"
"I'm looking for ...... Looking for Situ Han's seniors. Han Xiao originally wanted to say Qin Wuyue, but thinking that it might cause misunderstanding if he said such a thing rashly at this time, he simply didn't even say Chen Jiao's name, and simply said that it was Situ Han.
But even so, these people didn't immediately seem to be very excited, and the man still asked, "I don't know what to call adults?"
"My name is Han Xiao. ”
"General Han?" the man said excitedly, but his expression was full of doubt. After hesitating for a while, this person still gritted his teeth fiercely and said, "General Han, please come with me, Master Imperial Spirit has been waiting for you for a long time." ”
