Chapter 52 The person who shouldn't appear(2/3)
Good guy, I really saw you right.
Although Lu Qingshan originally wanted to use Yu Luo's words to solve his doubts.
But seeing that Yuluo was his biggest concern as soon as he opened his mouth, he couldn't help but praise him in his heart.
"Are you asking these people?" The demon cultivator casually glanced at the mineral veins in the distance with a accustomed expression, "We spent a lot of money to buy them from Liuli Domain and Tianmen Domain.
In the abyss, they are the only ones who have a steady stream of human resources for sale."
"By selling human resources to our other six tribes, these two tribes have become stronger and stronger in recent years." Speaking of this, the tone of the seventh-level demon cultivator revealed a hint of envy.
Lu Qingshan's expression remained unchanged, but his heart was filled with turmoil.
The Glazed Realm is the area of inner demons.
The Tianmen Domain is the territory of the Giant Spirit Clan.
Naturally, there will be no human race in the abyss. These human races must have been plundered from the human domain by these two races.
Bordering the Liuli Territory is the Zhongling Territory, and bordering the Tianmen Territory is the Zhongtian Territory.
The problem is that in these two domains, there has never been any news of large numbers of human beings disappearing.
Unless there is someone inside the race helping to hide it...
Being able to conceal this kind of thing shows the energy of these insiders.
Therefore, these ghosts must be from at least top sects, or even Dao sects...
As for the Zhongling Realm, after experiencing the Hundred Fantasy Butterflies, Lu Qingshan became very suspicious of the Huanling Sect. He immediately believed in his heart that if there was a real inner ghost, it was most likely from the Huanling Sect.
The problem is, it actually involves the Zhongtian Territory.
Zhongtian Domain is the territory of Tianji Guan.
Will there be a big traitor in Tianji Temple?
Lu Qingshan didn't believe it at all.
And with Tianjiguan's monitoring capabilities, how could it happen that a large number of human beings disappeared on their territory, but they didn't know about it?
The doubts in Lu Qingshan's heart were not answered, but became more and more numerous.
His heart became much heavier.
There's so much to do with it.
For no other reason than to pass this news back to the human race, he must save his life during this trip.
"Over the years, due to the increasing population and excessive consumption of our demon clan, the Abyss has fallen into a stage of exhaustion."
"So, we can only send countless untouchables to the battlefield outside the territory to consume the human race. Although this move is to treat the symptoms but not the root cause." The seventh-level demon cultivator continued to explain.
Yuluo secretly clenched his fists, a gloom flashing in his eyes.
Because he is the "untouchable" among these people.
"But there is another problem. Although we can send untouchables to battlefields outside the territory, we cannot send civilians there." Here, the seventh-level demon cultivator did not realize his gaffe and continued: "
Besides, without these civilians, who will extract resources for us?”
"Although the adults have tried their best to suppress the emergence of new high-level magic cultivators, it is already too late. The number of high-level magic cultivators has accumulated too much, which requires countless civilians to work for us."
Classes are always in the shape of a pyramid, with a large number of people at the bottom serving the few upper classes.
"But once the number of civilians increases, the consumption of resources will further increase. It's like an endless cycle."
"It wasn't until ten thousand years ago that the Heart Demon Saint Clan in the Liuli Territory, for some unknown reason, brought over many human races."
Speaking of this, the demon cultivator smiled and said: "The human race is no good, but in terms of production and labor, it is much better than our demon race.
They only need to consume less than 10% of the resources of our demon civilians, but what they can do is almost the same as them."
To put it simply, in the eyes of the demons, the human race is "cheap labor".
"Of course, humans have become an extremely popular resource.
However, in these years, only Liuli Domain and Tianmen Domain have been selling a steady stream of human resources, and this business has become a monopoly business for them."
The demon cultivator clicked his tongue and said: "I don't know where they got these humans. They are obviously like us, separated by the human city gate."
He didn't know anything about the situation in the other two domains.
Because the eight holy and demon clans of the Abyss have always been independent and not connected to each other.
Even a long time ago, in order to compete for resources and plunder territory, these eight holy and demon tribes had a confrontational relationship for a long time, with swords facing each other, and many conflicts and frictions occurred.
It was not until later that the resources of the abyss were exhausted that they stopped fighting and turned their attention to other worlds.
Therefore, their intelligence and resources are not common, and they do not understand their respective situations.
The war boat was already above the mineral vein at this time.
Lu Qingshan lowered his head and looked down.
He could clearly see tens of thousands of human men working on the mines.
However, there was only a demon team of ten people responsible for patrolling and monitoring.
They waved their barbed whips and kept beating the humans.
The whip was like a poisonous snake spitting messages. Every time it was drawn out, it would cut a bloody scar on these slender and skinny men, and beat their skin and flesh to pieces.
These human beings have to work hard for eight or nine hours every day in exchange for a small amount of food.
Once injured or physically weakened, they will be brutally killed by the demons.
In the eyes of the demons, they are not lives, but simply consumables.
Human bones can be seen everywhere on the ground, and there is even a huge pit in the center of the mine. Thousands of human corpses are piled in it, some of which have become bones, and some of which have just rotted.
Seeing this scene, a huge sadness arose in Lu Qingshan's chest.
"Who is behind this?" He thought that his inner will was extremely strong, but at this moment he still felt that his eyes were splitting.
He could only grit his teeth and control the expression on his face.
According to the demon cultivator, this situation has begun thousands of years ago.
In these ten thousand years, how many human races have been buried in such an unknown abyss?
Tens of millions, hundreds of millions, or even billions?
A chill suddenly arises.
Although there was constant hatred in his heart, Lu Qingshan became calmer at this moment.
The demons can silently plunder so many people from the human realm, and there must be high-ranking human monks secretly assisting them.
This made Lu Qingshan's heart feel extremely cold.
Even though he already knew that people's hearts are like ghosts, he still couldn't accept this happening.
The inner demons of the Glazed Realm, the giant spirits of the Tianmen Realm, as well as the Zhongtian Realm and the Zhongling Realm.
Lu Qingshan etched these names deeply in his mind.
…………
…………
Here, Yuluo has already begun to change the subject and ask other questions.
Lu Qingshan adjusted his mood slightly and listened carefully to the conversation between the two.
The war boat moved forward.
On the way, Lu Qingshan saw huge cities one after another, all of which were extremely majestic.
After another day and night, they finally arrived at their destination.
Senluo Capital City.
This is the largest demon city Lu Qingshan has ever seen.
The city wall is majestic, completely black, shrouded in a layer of faint black light, like metal, with a stunning luster.
The blood-stained war boat flew straight into the city without encountering any obstruction.
After all, it would be ridiculous if the guards of Senluo Capital couldn't even recognize His Highness Qingge's car.
The war boat traveled through the city for a while and rushed all the way to a luxurious palace.
In front of the palace, there is a huge square.
The demon cultivator controlled the war boat to stop on the square, and then said respectfully: "Your Highness, we are here."
Here is Qing Ge's residence, Prince Qing's Mansion.
Lu Qingshan squeezed out a faint hum from his nose, and then jumped off the war boat.
Qing Ge's mansion is tall and majestic.
There are two sixth-grade magic corrections standing guard outside the door.
