MTL - I [Imperial] Am Not This Kind of Man-Chapter 192 True God Comes
At twilight, Pei Tuo came out from behind the tree.
Qin Nuo was found playing with some dirt on the ground. He still had a small branch in his hand, and he kept dragging.
He could not help squatting aside, and whispered, "My son, what is this?"
"Nearby terrain, I want to see if there is another route."
Several people from Chen Chang'an also gathered up, only to discover that Qin Nuo's accumulation of soil was the topography of the valley below. The narrow valley bottom was surrounded by towering mountain boulders, forming a treasure land isolated from the world. It was once a blessing for the rest of a nation. The place where it originated has now become an insurmountable nature that prevents the people from descending.
"No more effort, there is only one way down the mountain." The speaker was Tao Yunqing, and his face came over bleakly. The high priests had previously informed them of the decisions of these young clans, and their mood was even more desperate than that of Qin Nuo and others who were guilty because of their conscience. Taking this path means giving up all the people. Those are their loved ones!
"Twenty years ago, this was the sacred mountain of our tribe. Ordinary people were not even qualified to come in. Later, the heavens and earth changed, and the high priest took the people into the mountain to hide. At that time, the road was still accessible, There are many prey in the mountains ... "Tao Yunqing murmured.
In short, this way, it is impossible to take these women and children away.
Only by taking a short cut from the valley in front of you can return to Xuelie City in a day or two, so that tens of thousands of women and children around can survive.
Qin Nuo was silent, reached out a small wooden stick, and tapped lightly on the fence on the east side of the valley model.
The small piece of earth immediately collapsed. The howling wind rolled up the sand and gravel on the ground, Qin Nuo closed his eyes. An inexplicable conflict struck suddenly in my heart.
On the edge of the cliff, Su He ordered people to continue to throw torches and test the poisonous gas in the valley.
Unfortunately, there are no signs of dissipating.
Crying sounds floated around, it was very low, and it sounded more uncomfortable.
The night before, there were dozens of frail women and children who died of starvation. This is the beginning. The number will continue to increase at a snowball-like speed.
Human life turned into such a negligent figure.
In such an atmosphere of despair and depression, the entire team did not completely collapse. Maybe because this tribe has experienced too many cruel tortures. Although the past 20 years are far away, the catastrophe was too painful, and the wounds have been deeply imprinted in their blood.
The high priest sent someone to urge Qin Nuo and Tao Yunqing to leave, but no one left. Pei Tuo and a few of them followed Tao Yunqing's team to hunt nearby. Although the harvest is not much, it can at least add a little vitality to these weak women and children.
Under the twilight, Qin Nuo was asking Su Luoer about some old things, and suddenly a scene in the distance caught his attention.
It was an elderly woman, who had been resting by the gap in the back of the stone platform, suddenly stood up, trembling toward the edge of the slope.
When she reached the edge of the high priest's vigilance, she still did not stop. She crossed the death warning line and continued to walk down.
Within the valley, she fell silently. The body twitched slightly, and soon, there was no movement at all.
Like a candle burning to the end, it suddenly extinguished in the dark swamp.
This old woman was just the beginning. Slowly, many people began to walk out of the rocky gap behind them. They moved forward in silence, some still holding young children.
The young people who were waiting at the edge line kneeled in despair, but no one stopped the tragic scene.
Qin Nuo suddenly stood up and looked at this tragedy in disbelief.
Most of the people who chose to go this way were elderly people and mothers holding their children. The team was silent and quiet, like a silent puppet show.
Qin Nuo couldn't bear it anymore, he felt extremely shame and shame for the previous hesitation.
He rushed to the east of the platform, and the high priest was sitting aside, watching his people calmly choose to die, as if he had turned into a sculpture.
"Let them stop!" Qin Nuo growled in a low voice.
The High Priest responded to him, but with a desolate smile, "You should go."
Qin Nuo couldn't make sense, he turned and found Lin Jia again, he was watching the silent tragedy with a heavy face.
Even though he had spoken harshly before, treating these people as animals, but seeing so many lives passing in front of himself, no one with a little empathy could bear it.
"Go and convey the deities, let them stop, and say that they have been inspired by the goddess, and will soon open the way for everyone!" Qin Nuo said concisely.
Lin Jia was shocked, but in the decisive and serious eyes of Qin Nuo, he still did as instructed.
Among the Xuelie tribe, he already has a lot of believers, especially among the elderly people. The leading believers were instructed to convey the news everywhere. Soon, the suicide behavior at the end of the platform stopped.
With a glimmer of hope, no one wants to give up their lives.
Everyone set their eyes on Lin Jia, and Lin Jia avoided all this and anxiously found Qin Nuo.
Qin Nuo was behind the mountain wall and ordered Chen Chang'an to look for a few things.
"There should be a lot on the mountain. If you can't find it, you can look for the help of the local people." Qin Nuo finally said.
At first Lin Jia just listened quietly, but in the end, she gradually changed her face.
"What are these things that the boy asked them to look for? Charcoal and yellowstone, and what kind of spirit stone?"
Qin Nuo hesitated and said, "With these things, it can be deployed into a powerful weapon, and it may be able to open a gap in the valley below. But I don't have full confidence, I can only try it." Today All the materials on hand are complete, just that the legendary spirit stone, does it really contain saltpeter-like elements, and the production method, after all, is not as skilled as the craftsman of the Gewu Division ...
"Is it the newly developed thing called blasting or medicine?" Lin Jia's lips trembled.
Qin Nuo nodded. He had carefully observed the terrain of the valley below. The east side of the valley had a few boulder in a very clever position. Only if it could collapse a piece, it would collapse. Widen the gap on the east side of the valley, let the mountain wind blow through, and quickly clear the poisonous gas in the valley. As long as the upper layer of poisonous gas dissipates and the water level drops, these ordinary people can pass through.
Unexpectedly, Lin Jia gritted her teeth and spit out a sentence: "No! Chen objected!"
In the corner where no one noticed, he knelt down and lowered his voice: "The emperor, fire and medicine are my soldiers, and they have the power to open up the world. If they are learned by these barbarians, the consequences will be disastrous. Afraid to reveal the identity of the emperor. "
Qin Nuo had a headache, which was why he hesitated before. The most convenient thing was fire and medicine to attack the city. Dealing with the nomadic people in the north can't fully exert its effect, but if it is obtained by the nomadic people in the north, it will be used in the borders and cities of Dazhou ... The consequences are simply unthinkable. The Song Dynasty died in Yuanmeng. One of the reasons was that the spear weapons they relied on spread to the north, and they were used by Yuanmeng to sweep Europe and Asia.
The previous battle in Hengdao City was extremely urgent. When Luo Xin led the soldiers to clean the battlefield, he still did not forget to clean up the fire and medicine left on the ground.
But the scene in front of him cannot be ignored, this is the only way he can find.
Determining that no one was around, Lin Jia lowered her voice: "The minister knows the emperor's kindness and can't bear to see the tens of thousands of women and children killing Huangquan, but please the emperor to take care of the millions of people and innocent women and children , Once this logistics falls into the hands of aliens, it will be an eternal calamity and endless troubles. "
Several people in Chen Chang'an also stopped. They were all soldiers, reminded by Lin Jiayi, and immediately thought through the key. Slowly, several people knelt down one after another.
"Shouchen cannot serve the purpose." Several people unanimously refused to implement Qin Nuo's previous arrangements.
Qin Nuo smiled bitterly and said, "Your scruples have already thought about it. That's why you need to use Lin Jia's strength to call you the god."
"After a while, you will act according to my plan, there will be no trace of this matter." Qin Nuo quickly said his plan again. In his heart, Da Zhou Jiangshan's stability and his own life safety are of course more important. He will never give up the former for the lives of his women and children, which will be a guilt he cannot bear and make up for.
When deciding to use explosives or medicines, we must first ensure adequate cover.
After listening to Qin Nuo's narration, Lin Jia looked at the young emperor with strange eyes, and immediately realized that he was rude, and lowered his head.
However, several people in Pei Tuo accepted well, and quickly moved under the urging of Qin Nuo.
The volcano is rich in minerals, high-purity sulfur, and saltpeter. As for other materials such as charcoal, it is easier to obtain.
Under the dark night, the pedestrians split their heads. Soon according to Qin Nuo's requirements, all materials were available. Hiding behind the mountain stream, Qin Nuo worked with several people to make simple black fire and medicine. Fortunately, in the Zhuangzi of the Gewu Division, Qin Nuo had been concerned about the progress of the research many times, and had a certain understanding of the distribution ratio and process of this gadget.
Then Qin Nuo took out the sea-viewing mirror and pointed to the place where Pei Tuo and Yan Chang were placed. He has observed the structure of the eastern mountain stream in detail. Among them, there is a place where the rocks are stacked and the structure is crunchy, which is a good place to start.
The dark night shrouded the earth. Shrouded in this desperate tribe.
The cold and starvation of one day and two nights, most ordinary people are on the limit. Although Tao Yunqing had hit as many prey as possible before, strong women such as Suluor also looked for moss lichens, but for this huge population In terms of quantity, the food that can be eaten is nothing more than a slack.
This night, the busiest is Lin Jia and his followers, who are constantly proclaiming among the crowd the miracle of the immortal goddess.
"The goddess has never abandoned us. It is the underground evil that is about to rise. The goddess has always sheltered us and never left. She opened up a valley for us, gave us food, and even suppressed the evil gods underground to keep us safe. ... "
Lin Jia promoted a new concept among the crowd.
The atmosphere of despair is naturally the best soil for religion to sprout.
Many believers begin to kneel and pray, even those who no longer believe in the goddess of the world, are infected by this pious atmosphere and kneel one after another.
"Before we abandoned the goddess 'behavior, the goddess' strength would gradually decline and we could not suppress these evil upsurges. All the prayers of all gods would bring us real vitality. It will be revealed before our eyes. Just as she broke the ice and snow, and gave us the secret valley. "
The rising sun rises on the horizon, and at that moment, Lin Jia, who is preaching in the crowd, is a handsome figure of Feng Shen, like a messenger of God, full of divine glory.
In the prayers of all the people, the cold wind that seemed like flail was not so unbearable.
At an instant in the early morning light, a tender voice sounded in the crowd.
"Someone on the top of the mountain!"
It was a child who was looking around, and suddenly found a miraculous figure, and froze.
So everyone looked at the top of the mountain.
At the end of the line of sight is the outline of the holy and beautiful mountains of Tianxing Mountain. And at the top of the snow-capped place, there appeared a sloppy figure.
Under the shroud of fog in the morning, the figure is so sacred and pure, like the incarnation of morning light. When the first rays of the sun shine on this mountain wall, it descends into this desperate world.
"It's the goddess's coming!" I don't know who shouted, almost everyone bowed down.
The weakest women and children all came out of the hidden caves, and with their young children, they fell down on the stone platform with reverence.
On the eastmost side of the stone platform, the high priest stood up with the support of several servants, and looked at the shadow of the temple that had been sealed for many years, and the holy figure condensed in the morning light.
Suddenly a murky tear burst out, and he fell to the ground with him.
In the eyes of everyone's expectations, the maiden above the temple raised her finger, as if pointing at the direction of the people from afar.
With her action, a thunderbolt suddenly crossed the sky, and the sound of a thunderous explosion sounded. On the mountain ridge in the easternmost part of the valley, gravel broke and the mountain collapsed.
Like an invisible giant, he raised his Thor's hammer and slammed it against the stone wall surrounding this valley.
The explosion sounded three times in a row, and a section of the mountain wall in the east was completely blasted. Immediately afterwards, everyone seemed to feel that the wind passing by suddenly increased.
The violent wind rolled down the mountain, and through the gap of the mountain stream that had just been broken, there was a vast whine, as if a nation was dying and mournful.
Under such violent wind, the unseen poison gas began to be blown away gradually.
Su He, the main sacrifice, immediately arranged for humans to test the poison gas below. At the beginning, the torch would still go out. After half an hour, the torch would last for three or four breaths before it went out. It took two more hours, the highest terrain in the middle and east of the valley, The torch has been able to burn continuously and is not affected.
"This is ready to go." Lin Jia immediately suggested.
The roar of the ground has continued during the period of living on the mountainside. According to the emperor, the volcano here does not know when it will erupt, and the highly toxic turbid gas may erupt again at any time on a large scale. .
As long as there is a way to spend it safely, leave immediately!
