Chapter 214: Purgatory on Earth, Pregnant Women and Children(1/2)

Tao Qian left his sect and entered the world primarily for the sake of the third dharma, for cultivation.

But at the same time, there are also other purposes. One of them is to find a reincarnation body for his uncle, Yuchan Zhenren, one of the Eight Immortals of Lingbao.

The convenience is that he doesn't have to work hard to find it himself.

As long as he enters the mortal world, Uncle Yuchan's true spirit will sense it, but Tao Qian didn't expect it.

The first day after joining the WTO!

Master Yuchan, have you chosen to be reincarnated?

And what a coincidence, it is within the borders of this magical city.

Although he was quite surprised, Tao Qian still had to take responsibility.

Following Uncle Yuchan's instructions, Tao Qian led the three children through the streets and alleys, quickly covering several miles.

"Is it actually here?"

Tao Qian frowned slightly and looked at a large slum in front of him.

That's right, in addition to the abnormally prosperous and even luxurious urban areas in the Magic City, there are also slums one after another.

Originally there were not so many, but as the dozens of major provinces in the Everlasting Empire were in chaos, wars were going on everywhere, and various disasters seemed to never stop, naturally they gave birth to a large number of poor people. Although

Most of them died locally, but many successfully gathered in the Magic City.

The ruler of the Demonic City, the Ninth Prince became violent and cruel only recently.

In the past, he cherished feathers very much.

Instead of expelling and killing the refugees, they built many shacks and opened warehouses to stockpile grain and provide porridge.

Compared with the "General's Walled City", the countless dilapidated wooden shacks in front of Tao Qian can be said to be slums in the true sense.

A mixture of dragon and snake?

No, this place is like purgatory.

When Tao Qian and the four of them stepped into it, an extremely complicated and foul smell immediately hit their faces. They saw that there was almost no good place to set foot in front of them. It seemed that because of the heavy rain last night, the many crisscrossing paths were very muddy.

That's all, it's even more visible that there are piles of golden towers scattered in a messy manner.

Mix the yellow mud and feces thoroughly, dilute the soup, steam the feces and smoke the urine.

Although Tao Qian had seen more filthy scenes at the Xiangmei Jie, this place shocked Tao Qian even more.

Because apart from the excrement and urine, there are no demons here. There are only people, all with yellow faces and skinny muscles, with turbid yellow and green eyes.

There is no shortage of men, women, old and young.

All of them seemed to have lost their vitality and hope.

They existed like zombies, and only occasionally, Tao Qian could catch a glimpse of the gleam of survival instinct in their eyes.

Tao Qian was silent as he walked forward.

From the dilapidated shacks along the way, there were faint sounds that Tao Qian heard clearly.

"Mom, Goudan is probably not going to get better. You and Dad should take me and replace me. I heard from the stinky boy that a kid as old as me can get three kilograms of meat in the market."

"Silly Zhu, listen to dad, don't be a medicine man. Dad is dead. You are the last member of our Liu family. Dad can't let anything happen to you. Dad should go to see your mother first and take care of yourself...

….”

"Brother, Erni is so hungry, so hungry. I seem to have seen my parents. They came to pick me up..."

"Daughter-in-law! Daughter-in-law, are you still alive? Are you out of breath? Dead? It's good to die. If you die, you don't have to suffer with me. Don't worry, I'll be here right away. I'll drag you along when you escape, and I'll go to the underworld too.

If you can’t pull it off, I’ll come right away.”

"My dear, listen up, Heiwa and his wife next door seem to be gone. It's time to take action. Just guard the door."



After hearing the last sentence, Tao Qian, who was walking, suddenly stopped.

At the same time, I saw a hungry couple sneaking out of a shack made of rotten wood.

Behind the door of their house, the figures of two children, a boy and a girl, disappeared briefly.

The middle-aged man held a blood-stained hatchet in his hand. The woman's cheeks were sunken and her eyes were glowing green. She bent her waist and wanted to touch her neighbor's house.

But suddenly, the two of them saw Tao Qian and the others.

It was very strange. Neither of them screamed, but they were both stunned for a moment, and then their eyes showed fear because of the size of Tao Qian and the four of them.

But neither of them gave in. The man tightened his grip on the hatchet and looked at his wife. Then he looked at Tao Qian, pursed his lips, and said in a hoarse voice:

"half?"

After spitting out these two words, he added a few more words.

"We want Heiwa's wife, Heiwa belongs to you."

"There are many of you, but I have a knife and I'm not afraid of you."

After hearing this sentence, Tao Qian's face suddenly became ugly.

Although the middle-aged man didn't speak clearly, it was easy to understand.

He is dividing the meat.

Tao Qian still remembered the last similar experience, which was at the Iron Buddha Temple and the Xiangrouji.

At that time, the people who wanted to share his flesh were demons and evil cultivators, not ordinary humans.

Tao Qian looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, who was sallow and thin, holding a hatchet and pursed his lips, resolute and unyielding.

On the surface, there was nothing strange about his body, but at this moment, Tao Qian's body was stirring like an ocean.

The magical method of immeasurable calamity given by the master is running on its own. The Qi machine is pulling it, and the human Qi luck is rising again. A strong silent urging roars in Tao Qian's mind.

Vaguely, Tao Qian sensed disaster and opportunity.

It wasn't because of this accident.

The matter of this hungry couple was solved very well.

To them, Tao Qian's magical powers are almost indistinguishable from those of the "immortal" in mythology.

What really aroused Tao Qian's mind and made him start to think seriously was the entire slum.

And there are tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands, of hungry people here.

There are also those who are aware and have woken up at this time.

One of the Eight Immortals of Lingbao, the true spirit of Uncle Yu Chan.

He was watching from the side, keenly aware of Tao Qian's thoughts, and the true spirit body in the toad bead immediately began to scratch his head and lament.

After hesitating for a while, he finally spoke suddenly and said:

"Master Tao, please don't act rashly. If you do whatever you want now and try to help the victims in this slum, once you start taking action, it means that you are in trouble, and it is a brand new disaster."

"If you can get through it, you can get great benefits, or a new magical power, or a new rare treasure."

"It's just that there are tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, of refugees in this slum. The life and death of so many people is a matter of life and death. The combined cause and effect is so huge."

"With your methods, you can solve it for one meal, or for one day, but what happens after that?"

"With your small body, can you withstand the subsequent backlash?"

"I did it but couldn't do it. You might be involved and the situation would get worse. Isn't that a crime?"

"Human matters need to be solved with human methods... If you try to use your own magic power to solve it, you will have a Tribulation Immortal come in, and sooner or later you will end up dead."

Uncle Yu Chan's hard-spoken advice made Tao Qian realize something, but it failed to shake his mind.

But just when he was about to make a move, something suddenly happened.

The wonderful magic in the body suddenly fell silent, and a blurry picture came out of the human destiny.

Tao Qian was stunned for a moment, then looked thoughtful.

Then, he said to the hungry couple in front of him:

"The body of a dead person is infected with disease. Even if you eat to fill your stomach, you won't be able to live for more than a few days."

"Wait a little longer, and someone will come to provide relief, handing out rice, flour, white porridge, steamed buns and other items, and there will also be some money-making jobs available."

"If you go in line first, you can get a good seat."

After saying these words, Tao Qian led three more children and continued deeper into the slums.

The middle-aged hungry couple were stunned for a moment.

It was very inexplicable that he actually believed Tao Qian.

"Child, you go back and take care of Erya. I'll go take a look."

The man put the hatchet into his wife's hand, and then ran out of the slum, stepping on the yellow mud of feces and urine.

Not long after, the wife who was in the house suddenly heard the sound of gongs and drums, and at the same time, there was a call from the police.
