Chapter 523: News
Nanzhao Kingdom, Nanzhao City, Nanzhao is a small country of the Nanbarbarians, and its capital is also named after Nanzhao. Therefore, Nanzhao also has two meanings in Nanzhao. One refers to the entire Nanzhao Kingdom, and the other is Nanzhao City. This is the capital of Nanzhao and is also the largest and most prosperous city in Nanzhao. Even in the entire Nanzhao, Nanzhao City is one of the most prosperous cities, a thousand-year-old ancient city. However, now, this thousand-year-old ancient city has been transformed into historical dust in the flood.
When Ning Caichen and others came to Nanzhao City, it was still a water area, because Nanzhao City was surrounded by all sides and within a radius of a hundred miles, the place where Nanzhao City was located was a flat land, located at the lowest point, and the flood led by the moon was directed to Nanzhao City, and the final result was also devastating.
Although the flood comes and goes quickly, this fast speed is relatively the same. In fact, the flood lasts for several hours. In these hours, the water surface of Feng Yaotan has risen by nearly a hundred meters. The surging flood is considered a beast of prehistoric times. A few hours are enough to make a thousand-year-old ancient city disappear in it. Even Nanzhao City, with Nanzhao City as the center, it has been attacked by floods within a radius of more than 100 miles, but it is the most serious here.
The flood had been stopped for four or five hours, but at this time the entire Nanzhao City was still in a state of flooding. On the water surface, you can see some driftwood, beams and pillars of broken buildings, and sometimes you can even see some corpses floating on the water surface. Those were some people in Nanzhao. The floods invaded them, which was a devastating disaster for them. Some people with good martial arts may be able to jump to the high ground to escape the impact of the flood by reaching out their hands, but for these ordinary people, it has become a fatal disaster.
At first glance, there were sorrows everywhere. Except for some highlands and peaks, most of the gullies and low terrain were shrouded in floods.
Ning Caichen saw the witch king, Shi Gonghu, Ji Sanniang, Tang Yu Xiaobao and others, Ji Sanniang, Shi Gonghu and Tang Yu Xiaobao, who were carrying a boat made of driftwood, desperately searching for survivors in the flood, while the witch king stood on a high ground on a mountain, staring blankly at the scene in front of him. At this moment, his expression was numb and his eyes were empty.
Mo Yixi, Li Xiaoyao, Shenggu, Anu and others were also there, and they were all on the water to find those who survived early.
There was a vague crying sound, some survivors. Although the flood came suddenly, not no one survived, but there were still some lucky people, but very few. These people stood in groups on the high ground without floods, but there was a kind of sadness and confusion. A man cried loudly, holding a dead female corpse in his arms. It was his wife. He survived, but his wife died in the flood.
A middle-aged woman was holding a seven-year-old child in her hand. The woman had martial arts skills and had low cultivation and only had Mingjin cultivation. However, she successfully survived the flood. But at this moment, she was crazy, crying and laughing, with long hair scattered. She held the seven-year-old child in her arms and kept kissing the child's face, but the child's body was already cold and stiff...
The ruthless water and fire are reflected in this moment. This is a devastating disaster for Nanzhao. After the flood, it is not only the destruction of their homes, but more the sorrow of the death of relatives and friends. In the entire Nanzhao City, there are few people living there, less than a thousand people. Most of the others died in the flood. Some people's corpses floated on the water and can be found, but more people's corpses are gone, and they have long known where they were washed away by the flood.
More than ten years ago, Nanzhao also attracted a great flood, but that time Lin Qing'er turned into a fossil statue, suppressing the water monster and stopping the flood in time. However, this time, the beauty stopped it.
Standing in the void, Ning Caichen looked at the scene in front of him. In a trance, he thought of the scene where he flooded Luoshui City and directly destroyed 200,000 Han troops. The flood flooded the entire Luoshui City, and the scene was so acquaintance.
Zhao Ling'er's eyes turned red. Looking at the scene below, she was kind-hearted, and as the princess of Nanzhao, she had a feeling of being unable to let go of Nanzhao. However, now seeing the tragic situation of Nanzhao, she couldn't help but feel a great sorrow in her heart. Lin Qing'er next to her didn't say anything, but you can see that two lines of clear tears slid down from Lin Qing'er's face. Then, Lin Qing'er turned into flowing light and flew to the waters below.
Lin Qing'er landed on the water and walked on the water, looking for survivors like Ji Sanniang and others.
"Husband, I want to go down and help." Zhao Ling'er said to Ning Caichen.
"No need to go, all those who survived have arrived on the shore."
Ning Caichen spoke, he was very wise. The moment he came here, the situation within a radius of dozens of miles was clearly sensed by him. There was nothing else in the flood except the dead bodies.
"I want to go down and have a look."
Zhao Ling'er gritted her teeth, her eyes were red, and she said stubbornly. Ning Caichen looked at Zhao Ling'er and finally nodded. He knew Zhao Ling'er's mood. Even though he knew that there might be no survivors, he still wanted to go and see. Although Zhao Ling'er looked gentle on the surface, she was not a soft outside and hard inside. The things she recognized were very changed. She would not be willing to give up completely.
Ning Cai stood in the void and watched Zhao Ling'er's figure fall down and look for survivors on the water, but Ning Caichen was unmoved because he knew that there were no survivors in the water. Since that was the case, why do you still do those futile things?
In Ning Caichen's opinion, this approach is no less than a kind of deception. It makes one feel better. It is obviously futile to know that many things are done, but many people still choose to do them. Just like some people, when they are children, they do not respect their parents very much, but when their parents die, they cry there. The same is true. They feel at ease, because they will feel at ease. People are originally a creature that likes to deceive themselves, but they are a bit ironic.
"Young Master, do we want to go down and help?" Ning Shan walked over and asked Ning Caichen.
"You have to help me support you mentally." Ning Caichen said.
"Hehe, then forget it." Ning Shan grinned and showed a honest smile: "I just ask for the sake of Concubine Zhao. It is not my business that the people in Nanzhao Kingdom live or die."
Ning Caichen glanced at Ning Shan and said nothing. He said that the higher the status of a person, the colder he was. He felt that this sentence had some truth. Just like Ning Shan now, looking at the situation in Nanzhao Kingdom unmoved, this was a kind of indifference to life. Although Ning Shan still looked so honest in front of him, he could feel that compared to the honest Ning Shan before, Ning Shan's mentality has changed at this moment, perhaps Ning Shan himself did not feel it.
In other words, Ning Caichen himself was not like this, or he might have been a cold-blooded person, so he did not hate Ning Shan's changes, but he admired it very much. In the eyes of others, this may be cold-blooded, but in his opinion, this is a kind of rationality. Only rational people can judge the pros and cons of things more rationally and make the most advantageous choice. He does not deny kindness. After all, people are smart lives, emotional creatures, and basic kindness is still needed, but he does not like too much kindness, because this may harm others and yourself. Don't see you. Just like in many TV dramas in the previous life, because the male or female protagonist's momentary kindness, he lets the villain go, and ends up letting the tiger go back to the mountain, which not only leaves hidden dangers for himself, but may also harm the people around him. Therefore, once he takes action, Ning Caichen will never stay behind against the enemy, cut the grass without eradicating the roots, and will grow again with the wind and blow.
Zuo Han was still fifteen imperial guards standing on a high ground behind Ning Caichen, with his body straight, but following Ning Caichen without saying anything, and looking at the scene in front of him calmly.
On the water surface, Lin Qing'er, Shi Gonghu, Ji Sanniang and others were still looking for survivors, and some survivors also began to support driftwood to help. As time went by, the water surface was decreasing at a sensational speed. However, gradually, Mo Yixi and Li Xiaoyao gave up on the search first, because they were already convinced that there would be no survivors, and the corpses found were only found.
Afterwards, Lin Yueru also stopped. The three of them stood on the water, without leaving, without searching, and without stopping others. Time went by bit by bit, and just a few hours passed, the sky gradually darkened. At this time, there were only Zhao Ling'er, Lin Qing'er and his son, Ji Sanniang, Shi Gonghu, Sheng Gu, and Anu who were left on the water.
Ning Caichen looked at the Witch King in the distance. The latter seemed to have come back to his senses at this time, with a hint of glory in his eyes, but his face was still snow-white.
"No need to look for it, there will be no living people." Ning Caichen spoke, and his body fell beside Zhao Ling'er: "If you look for it, no matter how many people you find, it will be just a corpse."
Ning Caichen's words made Ji Sanniang, Lin Qing'er, Zhao Ling'er and others stiffen. Ning Caichen's words were a bit unacceptable, but in the end, the few people stopped.
The dusk is dark, and it is dead silent here, but the entire Nanzhao City is still a water area. Standing at a high altitude, there is a water area of dozens of miles in a radius, like a lake, and only some mountains and high places are exposed to the water surface.
"Thirt!"
A loud bird song resounded through the world. Then a huge white divine bird flew from the sky, shaped like a phoenix, but it was snow-white all over. This was a swan.
"Bai Feng." Ning Caichen's eyes narrowed slightly, and then a figure jumped down from the back of the swan.
"Friend Bai Feng, pay homage to Your Majesty." Bai Feng fell in front of Ning Caichen and bowed.
"What's the matter?" Ning Caichen looked at Bai Feng.
