Ji Yuan's attention was also on Yan Fei, Lu Chengfeng and Zuo Wuji. After seeing these three people up close, he discovered that these three people, especially Zuo Wuji, were entangled with a very obscure special aura. This was different from human fire, demonic energy, and blood. It was like seeing the Huang family's purple energy. It was a kind of existence of luck, but it was unprecedented.
This made Ji Yuan even more excited about the future changes of Zuo Wuji and others. It was unreasonable and unethical to let these three martial arts wizards die in this demon's cave.
However, compared to Ji Yuan and Lao Niu who knew about the presence of Yan Fei and others, the latter was completely unaware. He only understood that a more powerful monster had arrived, and he deeply understood that the three of them, master and apprentice, were definitely being targeted.
The demon's gaze was almost unbridled, but Yan Fei and the other two had already stepped into the martial arts world and had a kind of telepathic perception, even sharper than some immortal cultivators. The terrifying pressure and murderous intent of the demon were extremely obvious, which made the three of them feel even more depressed, knowing that they might not be able to escape death.
The carts delivering food stopped coming in at the city gate, and the crowd began to stir, knowing that they would be able to get food soon.
“Dangdangdang…”
The two people who had been beating the gong slowly walked to the side while beating the gong, and then put down their hands one after another, and the slightly harsh gong sound came to an abrupt end.
I don’t know who ran over first, but then everyone followed suit.
"Ah!" "I'm so hungry!"
"Don't push me, don't push me!"
All those who seemed numb before were now caught up in an excited state of looting, as if they had momentarily forgotten their own situation. Even many of the warriors around Zuo Wuji and the others rushed over.
However, those warriors did not dare to use their martial arts too much, and instead relied on their extraordinary strength to squeeze to the front, for they were afraid of attracting the attention of demons and monsters.
"Hey, come and get the food! If anyone is too hungry, they will be caught and eaten first. They will be bled, skinned, and their hearts and marrow will be taken out!"
The horse demon next to the old cow suddenly threatened like this, and there was a terrifying aura in his voice that was clearly heard by everyone.
“Ah…” “I don’t want to die!”
"Mine, this is mine!" "Get out of here!"
"I want one too, I want one too..."
Because of the horse demon's roar, the crowd suddenly became chaotic. The frightened people pushed and shoved each other, and were full of hostility towards each other, and became more violent.
At this moment, only the bearded man and the two warriors beside him restrained their impulse and stood beside Yan Fei and the other two instead of rushing over.
"You're not going to rob?"
Yan Fei glanced at them. The three of them did not have the power of Wusha Yuangang, and were also affected by the sound just now. There was obvious fear on their faces, but they were still able to force themselves not to move. Hearing Yan Fei's words, the three of them shook their heads.
"Although I'm hungry? But I can still hold on..."
While the bearded man was speaking, some people in front had already started fighting over food. Two strong men separated the people next to them and kept putting the muddy food and corn into their pockets. The people who were pushed away got angry and joined the others in fighting them. The food was scattered everywhere and some people squatted on the ground to grab it.
"hahahahahahahahahaha… "
The horse demon beside the old cow burst into laughter? Several monsters nearby were also laughing.
"Brother Niu, look at this. Doesn't it look like animals fighting over food?"
The old cow sneered and said nothing, but the monsters nearby thought he was mocking the mortals who were fighting for food.
Not far away, Yan Fei, Zuo Wuji and the other two were heading towards the horse monster. Although they couldn't see the other party's figure clearly, the direction from which the pressure and the sound came was still very obvious to them.
The chaotic state of the crowd is of course prone to accidental injuries. Some people will be knocked down and then stepped on. But not everyone can get up after falling down. For example, in Zuo Wuji's eyes, next to a car in the distance, there were two children who were knocked to the ground by others and were immediately stepped on by several people.
"Ah..." "It hurts, mom..."
"Mom, come here..."
Seeing that everyone's attention was focused on the front and they were scrambling for food, Zuo Wuji, who was young and energetic after all, knew that he would not live long, could not bear it any longer. He grabbed his walking stick and jumped out of the crowd. He stepped on people's shoulders and reached the two children, then landed on the ground and held the walking stick horizontally.
“Bang…” “Ouch…”
"ah… "
All the people who rushed over were blocked by Zuo Wuji with his flat stick. He alone blocked the charge of at least a dozen people, but his feet did not move at all.
"Stop! Everyone, stop—"
Zuo Wuji roared angrily, his voice like thunder, making the crowd's ears buzz and suppressing the commotion of the crowd. Everyone subconsciously looked at him, and Zuo Wuji helped up the two children who were trampled and covered in dirt one by one.
"Get up, are you okay?"
The two children were so frightened that they were twitching and unable to speak.
At this moment, Zuo Wuji didn't care whether he would attract the attention of the monster. He was really afraid that he would become like this in the future. He just looked at the crowd around him and roared angrily.
"What's wrong with you? Hungry, everyone is hungry. Fearful, everyone is afraid! But look at yourselves and look at them!"
Zuo Wuji pointed at the two children beside him.
"It is indeed a desperate situation now, but we are still human beings, not real beasts! The food here is enough for everyone to eat. Maybe not everyone can be full, but there is no need to let those real beasts laugh at us, especially those who once claimed to be strong and unyielding. Don't break your spine—"
Zuo Wuji was mainly cursing certain people in his roar, and those people themselves were vaguely aware of it. Many men also unconsciously put themselves in the shoes of the others, thinking that a real man should be upright and self-reliant, and that they were the ones being cursed.
Although the fear of monsters has not been eliminated, people still have a sense of shame, and the riots have obviously stabilized a lot.
The crowd's mood calmed down, but Yan Fei and Lu Chengfeng were always on guard in secret. If Zuo Wuji got into trouble, they would secretly attack and support him. No matter whether they could survive afterwards, as masters, they would definitely accompany their disciples to the end today.
Lao Niu looked at Zuo Wuji from afar and admired in his heart:
'He's a good man, a little reckless, but a hero!'
Ji Yuan and the old beggar not only admired Zuo Wuji, but also saw something more. In their opinion, the blood and energy in Zuo Wuji's body mixed with that special aura actually glowed faintly.
This change in the crowd, as well as Zuo Wuji's stepping forward, not only made the demons unhappy, but also caused all the people who pulled the carts to look at him. This special anger, anger directed at demons expressed in public, was something they had rarely seen in their lives, and they also clearly realized that these people were different from themselves.
Beside the old cow, the horse demon sneered, then suddenly laughed again.
"Interesting, interesting. You are really interesting. You must be a warrior, right?"
This time the sound came from a clear direction, so much so that when people not far from Lao Niu and his group heard it, they subconsciously moved away from them.
Zuo Wuji tightly grasped the flat stick in his hand. He was afraid, but his momentum did not diminish at all. He looked straight in the direction of the horse monster and said.
"He's a warrior, but not a beast!"
These monsters are simply not on the same level as those seen before. The demonic aura on their bodies is so strong that it is already very terrifying. Zuo Wuji can feel it, and Yan Fei and Lu Chengfeng can also feel it. Although the people around them cannot feel it so intuitively, they can guess that these people are powerful monsters.
"Are you confident in your martial arts?"
The horse demon asked jokingly, and Zuo Wuji answered the next moment.
"Do you have confidence? Come and try it!"
The horse demon narrowed his eyes slightly, then smiled and said to Niu Batian beside him.
"Brother Niu, today I will help you to have fun and show you how these newly arrived humans and animals immediately become docile when they see someone's chest being cut open and heart being eaten in public."
As he looked towards the other end of the carts, a monster who had been watching the show walked in with a smile on his face. Those who had been scrambling to grab food now scrambled to retreat, knowing that the monster had arrived.
"Hehehe, kid, your heart belongs to me. I hope you can let me play with you for a while longer. I'll let you go first..."
The monster who transformed into a human spoke lazily, but before he finished speaking, Zuo Wuji's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he kicked the flat stick with his left foot, and rushed out with the stick in his right hand. The Wu Sha Yuan Gang was drawn but not released, and as the true energy was poured into the flat stick, he brought the flat stick to the monster in a flash.
The long spear techniques are like a swallow flying through the clouds and a rainbow piercing the sun.
The monster didn't even have time to react before the flat stick had already reached his forehead. Although it was clearly a warrior's move, a feeling of death arose in his heart.
"boom… "
The monster was hit directly on the head by a flat stick, and his whole body seemed to be hit by a galloping horse. It crashed onto the cart behind him with a loud bang, and countless corns and fruits were knocked into the air and flew everywhere.
This scene was almost beyond everyone's expectations.
Zuo Wuji looked at the ox cart warily, but the monster that was shot away by him did not get up. Its body shape changed like a shadow, slowly turning into an animal with claws. Its limbs twitched twice, and then it became unresponsive.
The whole audience was silent.
'sharp!'
This word flashed through the minds of Lao Niu, Ji Yuan and the old beggar almost at the same time. Zuo Wuji's strength exceeded their expectations.
And all the people around, those forbearing warriors, those common people fighting for food, and those "natives" of the human-animal kingdom who numbly pulled their carts over, were all staring blankly at the scene before them.
