Guo Huai left the mountains and soon arrived in Shaanzhou.
He didn't go long before he saw two groups of warriors fighting. There were about ten people on both sides. The leaders of both sides were at the fifth level. The rest of the people were at the sixth, seventh, eighth or ninth level of martial arts. They were fighting with clanging sounds. Non-stop.
During this period, someone saw Guo Huai passing by and killed him indiscriminately with a knife. Guo Huai did not tolerate him and knocked him to the ground with a palm without killing him.
Guo Huai didn't pay attention to this incident. He continued on his way. He saw many such fights along the way. He didn't even come close, but walked around from a distance.
When he arrived at Longwu County, he encountered tens of thousands of troops fighting with the sound of drums and war flags. Guo Huai had to take a detour after seeing it.
Guo Huai saw from a distance that the armors worn by both sides were the standard equipment of the Daqian Kingdom, and for some reason they started fighting among themselves.
A few years ago, there was a drought in Shaanzhou and people fled to the west. The imperial court came to quell the rebellion again. Several counties in Shaanzhou were killed and there was no human habitation for thousands of miles.
Later, the Wei River burst its banks and another flood occurred. I don't know how many places were flooded. Now, for some reason, the army also started fighting.
After many days, Guo Huai finally arrived at Long'an County City. He saw that the county city was in dilapidated condition, with arrows still stuck on the dilapidated walls, and there were many brown blood stains on the walls.
Guo Huai smelled a stench soaring into the sky when he was far away. Holding his breath, he came to the city. There were rotting bones everywhere, and he could also see a wild dog eating the stumps.
Most of the houses in the city were burned down and collapsed. Countless bones were scattered on the streets, and some rusty swords were scattered on the ground.
The north wind blew whiningly, as if the undead were crying. Occasionally there will be a few barks of dogs, but there is no breath of life here.
This is a dead city!
Guo Huai did not go back to the city. He bypassed Long'an County and continued along the road that was almost covered with weeds. Soon he came to the old site of Fenglingdu.
Why the old address?
Because this bustling ferry has long since disappeared, there is only a vast country in sight, and even with Guo Huai's super eyesight, he cannot see the end.
Guo Huai could only avoid this place, and after walking for hundreds of miles, he finally saw a small town. The town was also somewhat dilapidated, but he could still see the rising smoke.
When Guo Huai came to the town, he did not see ordinary people. Instead, he saw a few warriors carrying knives and swords. When they saw Guo Huai wearing shabby clothes, a white-faced warrior immediately stepped forward to question him.
"What do you do? This is not the place for you!"
Guo Huai saw that the other person was just a sixth-level warrior. He flashed past, and the next second he appeared in front of the white-faced warrior, grabbing the opponent's neck with his powerful hands.
The white-faced warrior turned even paler with fright, and said with a trembling voice: "Senior, don't kill me, we are from the White Crane Clan."
When the warriors in the town heard the commotion, they came out and surrounded Guo Huai. Guo Huai took a quick look and saw that there were more than a dozen people.
Guo Huai raised his hand and hit a nearby pillar supporting the house. The pillar cracked and the whole house collapsed with a bang.
The white-faced warrior trembled even more, and his true energy was released. This was the ability of an innate master. Today he hit the wall.
The surrounding warriors were also trembling. They couldn't afford to offend the Xiantian Grandmaster, so they all knelt down and begged for mercy.
Guo Huai let go of the white-faced warrior and asked, "You will answer whatever I ask next. If you answer well, I will spare your life!"
Everyone fell to the ground and said yes.
"Why are there people fighting everywhere in Shaanzhou? I've walked thousands of miles and passed through several towns without seeing even a single person?" Guo Huai asked in a stern voice.
The white-faced warrior looked confused. How could this young senior not know this?
Looking at the shabby clothes on his body, the white-faced warrior immediately made up his mind. This senior must have been practicing hard in the mountains for these years and just came down from the mountain, so he had such doubts.
So he said respectfully: "Senior, this is because the late emperor passed away last year, and the prince and the west prince fought for the throne, and a fight broke out between them."
"The princeling party occupies the south, and the western princeling party occupies part of the north. In order to seize the world, the western prince colludes with evil ways to help him seize the world!"
"Most of us decent people from well-known families support the prince, so a war between good and evil has been happening since last year!"
"In addition to the fighting between the armies of both sides, our good and evil forces are also fighting each other. Shaanzhou is a strategic location in the northwest, so the two sides fight back and forth here. The fighting is so fierce that the people do not hide in the mountains, and the rest are basically All dead!"
Guo Huai's face was expressionless. He didn't expect that in just one year, the world would be in chaos.
Yu Wenwen is the Ninth Princess. She should be a member of the West Prince's party. The Seventh Prince who was killed by Guo Huai is also Yu Wenwen's brother. He is a die-hard West Prince's party.
"Do you have anything to eat?" Guo Huai has not had a serious meal for a long time, and he has been suffering from hunger along the way.
Not only were there no humans along the way, there were no wild animals either. Guo Huai could only find some roots and stems of vegetables to satisfy his hunger.
"Yes, yes!"
The white-faced warrior quickly got up from the ground and invited Guo Huai to eat in the room. After a while, everyone brought a table of food.
Guo Huai ignored them and started eating as if no one else was watching. He finished the whole table of food like a wind and a cloud.
Guo Huai asked: "Why is the food here so rich?"
One person answered first: "His Royal Highness's people will bring us supplies regularly!"
"Then it seems that your Baihe Clan also supports the prince?" Guo Huai asked, wiping his mouth.
The man said flatteringly: "Except for the two big sects of the Broken Sword Sect and the Phantom Sword Sect, our righteous sect basically supports His Highness the Crown Prince. Of course, there are also some unscrupulous gangs and small sects who support the Western Prince!"
Guo Huai nodded with satisfaction and said, "You guys prepare some dry food and water for me, I'll be on my way soon!"
When everyone heard that Guo Huai was leaving, they prepared dry food and water as quickly as possible, hoping that the evil star would leave quickly.
