Chapter 310: Passive Slowdown 2



Ah Que came out of the forest cursing, with a head full of grass leaves, and walked slowly along the path leading to the entrance of the village.

"I look smooth? Don't you look like humans?" The pretty Ah Que murmured, "Lazy is lazy, why bother talking about appearance? Although I do look better than you, oh, are they spending gold, silver, copper, or spirit crystals here?"

Aque touched the piece of bone hanging on his chest, which was about an inch long, pitch black, and constantly emitting a faint, eerie light.

This was a strange bone with storage function that they got from a ghost leader they killed in the Dark Area. Because Ah Que was the most careful person on weekdays, this bone belonged to Ah Que.

The conditions in the Dark Region were extremely harsh, and the Heavenly Cultivators who controlled the Dark Region were extremely harsh to these slave warriors, often withholding various supplies. Therefore, there were not many things stored in this bone, just a few pieces of natural gold nuggets, some sand silver that he had mined in his spare time, and a hundred or so pieces of low-grade spirit crystals that he had snatched from evil spirits. That was all.

After pondering for a while, Aque took out a few spirit crystals, and then took out a piece of dog-head gold the size of two fists, wrapped it in a piece of animal skin and held it in his hand.

After walking about seven or eight miles along the path, Ah Que's figure just appeared at the square at the entrance of the village. The children who were practicing spiritual cultivation in the square turned around vigilantly.

"Hey, man, what are you doing?" Two spiritual practitioners strode towards Aque, and they both had long swords emitting a dim light in their hands.

Ah Que raised his hands hastily. He placed the animal skin package on the ground and kicked it lightly with his right foot. The package fell apart, revealing the spirit crystal and gold nuggets inside. "I'm just passing by. I'm really greedy. Come and buy some wine."

Ah Que showed his friendly smile and said gently to the two spiritual practitioners approaching him, "I'm not a bad person. I just smelled the aroma of wine from afar and came here to buy some wine to satisfy my craving."

Sniffing, Ah Que looked at the two big men and said with a smile: "The winery in your village, hehe, uses pure grains to brew wine, right? It's mellow and fragrant, and the aroma can be smelled ten miles away. Moreover, I smell the scent of aged wine. Do you have aged wine that has been stored for more than fifty years?"

Aque licked his lips and took a deep breath. The greedy look on his face was genuine and unpretentious.

When we were in Qizhou, we followed Chu Tian to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks. The brothers ate big chunks of meat and drank big bowls of wine. We were so happy.

After leaving the Six Paths Demon-Sealing Barrier, he was brought to this strange world. He first entered the arena with harsh conditions, and then was thrown directly into the underworld to fight desperately with evil spirits. How long has it been since he last touched the fifty-year-old wine?

"If the money is not enough, you can add more!" Ah Que smiled so much that his eyes narrowed into a line.

The two spiritual practitioners looked at Aque suspiciously. Although they could not see through Aque's cultivation level, they instinctively felt a strong sense of coercion from Aque, similar to that of a bloodthirsty beast.

They subconsciously tensed their muscles, and continuously poured the little magic power in their bodies into the swords in their hands, ready to launch a full-strength attack at any time.

Several village elders walked over slowly. They looked Ah Que up and down. A white-haired old man looked at Ah Que's clear eyes seriously and suddenly smiled: "He is a good kid...but he is a bit murderous. Using spirit crystals to buy wine? He really doesn't know how to live a homely life."

Pointing at the gold nuggets wrapped in animal skins, the village elder said with a smile, "The wine in this deserted village is low-quality. It's not the spiritual wine enjoyed by the adults. It's not worth much. With this piece of gold, we can empty out all the wine shops in our village. Kids, are you here to collect herbs or hunt?"

Ah Que smiled and shook his head. He bowed sincerely to several village elders and said gently, "A little bit of everything... Well, then please give me a few more jars of aged wine, some side dishes, and more meat."

An old man in the village asked Ah Que with a smile: "We are guests from afar. There are empty rooms in the village. Why don't you go in and rest?"

Ah Que still shook his head and said with a smile, "There are too many friends. It's too much of a bother. I won't go into the village."

The two spiritual practitioners became nervous again after hearing what Aque said.

Several village elders were chatting with Aque with a smile on their faces. One of the village elders came into the village and greeted a few people. Soon, the villagers picked out jars of old wine and brought out many dishes to go with the wine.

Aque smiled, nodded to the curious villagers, waved his hand, and a whirlwind whizzed up, and all the wine and food were collected by him.

The two spiritual practitioners took a step forward at the same time and looked at Aque more nervously.

The fact that he had a storage spiritual device meant that Ah Que had come from an unusual place. If he was just a passer-by, it would be fine, but I was afraid that he was not. The two spiritual practitioners had also been outsiders and knew that the First Island Circle was definitely not a peaceful place.

"Excuse me!" Ah Que bowed to several kind-looking village elders. He was silent for a while, then said solemnly, "Thanks to the kindness of the village elders... Let's let the villagers go into the mountains for a few days. We can come out when everything is peaceful."

The two spiritual practitioners almost jumped up, and the faces of several village elders suddenly changed.

Aque looked at them and nodded vigorously. His body shook, and suddenly there was a faint sound of wind and thunder, leaving behind a few afterimages, and he disappeared in an instant.

"Master! Oh my God!" The two spiritual practitioners trembled with fear. Aque's speed was astonishingly fast. If Aque had attacked them just now, they would not even have a chance to react.

"Gather the villagers and go into the mountains!" Several village elders said without hesitation: "Move all the wine from the winery here. People have given us a chance to survive, so this little bit of wine is nothing. Hurry, go into the mountains, quickly, quickly, quickly!"

In the forest, on a small hill, Agou, Aque and Laohei sat cross-legged in a grass nest, watching from afar the village as it began to evacuate in an orderly manner.

As he drank the wine in big gulps, Ah Gou said vaguely, "That's right. It's better for everyone to eat meat and drink wine. Why fight and kill? Look, these people are no different from the folks in our fish farm back then."

Aque grabbed a piece of fatty braised beef and ate it in small bites.

Neither he nor Lao Hei said anything.

Yes, whether in the Six Paths Sealing Demon Enchanted Realm or under this sky, these most ordinary villagers are all the same simple and kind. They live like weeds in the mountains and forests. They have no ambition to stand against the wind and frost or pierce the sky. They have never thought of becoming a towering tree. They just want to live a humble but plain, peaceful and happy life!

"Sometimes, it's hard to predict what's going on in this world." Lao Hei drank a jar of fine wine in one gulp, cursing, "I don't know where the Dragon King, Fox Old Man, Tiger Dad and the others are now, and what they are doing. Hey, I don't know what happened to the old brothers in the village back then!"

Before he finished speaking, a sharp sound of breaking through the air came from far away in the sky.

A ball of fire exploded in the village with a bang, and the black and red flames covered an area of ​​more than ten feet in radius, blowing to pieces the large and small wine jars that the villagers had placed in the square.
