"Killing them is easy, but what good is there in killing them? There is no good at all.
"Rather than doing this, it would be better to keep them here and use their power to gather water vapor to help the people of the Western Regions."
"If it weren't for this, why do you think the power of heaven and earth would spontaneously wrap around me?"
Qin Qi asked back.
Good, that makes sense."
"
"But, but can you use a stronger material? If you make a statue out of sand, it will fall apart immediately if it rains a little bit."
Li Xueyang looked at the sculpture made of sand and felt very worried.
"It's okay. This thing looks fragile, but even if you destroy it, it won't take long for the sand to gather again."
"The key to the seal is not the appearance of the sculpture, but the power of my hand left in the sand."
"Under normal circumstances, it will absorb the power of the Western Desert and maintain its operation. As long as no one interferes, it will last for a thousand years without any problems."
Qin Qi explained. The statue itself wasn't important; what was important was the seal Qin Qi had left behind. As long as the seal remained, the statue could be destroyed as many times as needed.
"That's good, that's good. By the way, are there any other dangerous things?"
Li Xueyang nodded and asked.
"Well, nothing else."
Qin Qi thought about it and it seemed that there was nothing else. The power of heaven and earth and the power of humanity had all been successfully gathered together.
The formation has been set up, and the rest should be fine.
"Well, that's all. I'm about to leave the Western Regions, and I'll leave the rest to you.
Qin Qi looked back at the desert where yellow sand was still flying, and then his figure disappeared into the yellow sand.
"Goodbye, I will pay close attention to what you said."
Fan Yunfei waved goodbye to Qin Qi as he left.
"We will take good care of the child, so you don't have to worry."
Li Xueyang also shouted "800".
Qin Qi waved his hand without saying anything and left. After he left, many changes took place in the Xixi Region.
In a village that has been suffering from drought for a long time, they also want to offer sacrifices to the legendary Dragon King.
"Village Chief, I heard that if you want to exchange for the Dragon King's help, then you should give your child to him to be eaten!"
"Village chief, this behavior is too conscienceless. Children are the hope of the village. We can't do this."
"If it doesn't work, I'll let the Dragon King eat me!"
Although the people in this village have been forced into a desperate situation, their human hearts still exist.
They know exactly what they can and cannot do.
"I know, I know you are right. I can't bear to leave those children either."
"But the drought has lasted too long. There are no crops left in the fields. If this continues, we will all starve to death."
"Not just one or two people, but the entire village will starve to death."
The village chief's face was also full of confusion at this time. He was the village chief, and he was responsible for the life and death of everyone in the village.
Even if I don't want to do it in my heart, but... is there any other way? No, either the whole village will die together, or I have to do this conscienceless thing.
"Then village chief, let me go! I'll go in place of those children!"
A strong man stepped forward and said, "If someone must die, then as the one who caused it, you should bear the full responsibility."
"Sit down!"
"If the Dragon King wants to be an adult, why would you come out and show yourself? I, an old man, am not afraid of death!"
"I am willing to die for the village, but the Dragon King only wants children, not adults!"
The village chief roared. If he could use his old body to replace those children, he would do it without hesitation.
But the Dragon King doesn't want adults, he only wants children.
Everyone fell silent for a moment. There was no other way. Either they died together, or they had to sacrifice some children.
"Express your opinions. Raise your hands if you agree. If you disagree, don't move."
The village chief sighed and then spoke.
Everyone began to vote in silence. After waiting for a while, no one present raised their hand.
"I don't agree with this. You have to think clearly. If the drought continues like this, no one in the village will survive."
The village chief spoke.
"Village Chief, we have thought it through."
"If we sacrifice our children's hearts today when we encounter difficulties, what about tomorrow? What about the day after tomorrow? Sooner or later, there will be a day when we will no longer be able to do anything."
"Who should we turn our butcher knives on at that time? You? Me? Or someone else present?"
"If people eat each other, they are no longer human, but we are still human. Village chief, please stop talking about sacrifice."
"Even if we die, we want to die as a human being."
Someone spoke up.
"Well, that's it. Let's wait and see. If it doesn't rain in three days, we can all go our separate ways."
"Whether you die outside or survive by chance, it's all up to fate."
The village chief sighed, and at the same time heaved a sigh of relief. Sometimes there are things that you would rather die than do.
It may seem foolish to insist on doing this, but it makes me feel much better.
In a blink of an eye, three days had passed, and still not a drop of rain fell. The water in the village had been drunk up.
"You will have a hard time going out to find water. I can't help you much, I can only pray silently for your safe return."
The village chief spoke to the young men preparing to leave in search of water. The desert is full of dangers; even the slightest carelessness could lead to the death of the Yellow Sand God.
These young people who went out may never come back, and the village chief is very sad about this, but those who stayed behind are just waiting to die.
The end result is still the same.
"Don't worry, village chief. We will definitely come back with water."
"Goodbye, Village Chief."
"FJK......."
While the adults were bidding farewell, the children were playing around the statue that had just appeared.
They didn't know what was happening yet, and the adults hadn't told them about the crisis the village was facing.
Except for one child, she was the granddaughter of the village chief and the girl who was originally to be offered as a sacrifice.
"If it rains now, everyone won't have to go out, and everyone will have water to drink.
"If it rains, the crops will grow well and we will have enough food to eat."
The little girl sat on the statue, watching the group that was about to leave, among whom were her father and mother.
She was very reluctant, but she also knew that they had to go out to find water, otherwise everyone would die.
In this situation, she made the simplest wish, which was just to have some water.
This simple wish seemed to trigger something, and the eyes of the statue beneath her began to glow.
Suddenly, dark clouds began to gather in the sky filled with yellow sand, and in the blink of an eye, lightning and thunder appeared!
"The dark clouds are coming! The dark clouds are coming!"
"It's going to rain, it's going to rain!"
"The village is saved, the village is saved!"
The village chief and the others were all excited. They had thought they were in despair, but unexpectedly, they found a way out of the desperate situation.
This day, the rain saved their village!
Accompanied by a thunder, rain began to fall from the sky, but as soon as the rain fell, it was pulled by a force.
The rainwater gathered beside the statue, and then a bottomless hole appeared next to the statue, and the rainwater gathered in it.
"Has all this rain gone?"
"No, he didn't leave, he was attracted by something.
"It's that statue. Let's go, hurry over there!"
The villagers ran over in a hurry and saw a large amount of rainwater stored in the pit. There was also a small pit next to the big pit.
The water in the small hole has become very pure after being filtered by various substances in the sand. At this time, there are children drinking the water.
"This water is so sweet!"
"It's delicious, it's delicious!"
"Daddy, Mommy, we have water!"
The village chief's granddaughter ran to her grandfather and parents with water in her hands, raised her hands and said, "Grandpa, look, you see, with this father and mother, you don't have to go out.
"They can stay home with me."
The little girl's idea was very simple. With Water Daddy and Mommy, she wouldn't have to risk going out and could stay with her.
..Um."
The village chief was silent for a long time, then a smile appeared on his old face, and he looked at the mysterious statue.
He knew that both the rain just now and the current situation were definitely related to this statue.
"Thank God for the gift!"
The village chief took the lead and wanted to kneel down to express his gratitude, but the next second he was stopped by the sand on the ground.
At the same time, a voice reached the minds of all those who wanted to kneel down.
"Don't pray to gods and Buddhas all day long. What you see before you is just a broken statue. There's no need to kneel down and worship it."
"In the end, people still have to rely on their own strength. I give you the opportunity, and the rest is up to you."
"Don't say that mortals are inferior to immortals! My fate is in my own hands, not in the hands of God!"
For a moment, everyone seemed to see the figure of a young man. They could only see his back, but they could sense a sense of arrogance from him that looked down upon the world.
They felt that the world was insignificant in front of that young man. He was the only supreme being in the world! Nothing could compare to him!
The villagers didn't know who that person was, but they knew in their hearts that this person gave them new hope.
From today on, you no longer need to kneel down and worship any gods, and you no longer need to send your children to the Dragon God. You only need to rely on your own hands to work hard and you can have a good life!
"Everyone in our village will always remember your kindness!"
"As long as there is one person left in our village, we will never forget him no matter how many years pass!"
"You don't need our kneeling, but we still want to thank you!"
The village chief stopped kneeling and bowed. However, this time he was not facing a statue, but the figure of the young man he saw in his mind!
"Benefactor, please accept our greetings!"
The villagers followed suit. From then on, they no longer worshipped the sky, the earth, or the statues of gods. Instead, they worshipped the young man whose back was only visible.
After the thanksgiving ceremony, the village began to make arrangements...
"Although we have water, we still need to use it to irrigate the crops. Young men, get moving!"
The village chief spoke.
"yes!"
The men went back to get various water-holding tools, and then carried water to irrigate the farmland in batches.
It was tiring to bask in the sun, but they were very happy. Being tired was much better than having no hope! Despair was the most terrifying thing!
"People still have to rely on themselves."
The village chief looked at the young people working hard with smiles on their faces, and he suddenly understood why the rain
The water will be drawn here.
The boy was very capable. He could definitely help them irrigate the fields and do everything else. But he helped this time, but what about next time?
In the end, people still have to rely on themselves. No matter how hard or difficult it is, people still have to rely on their own efforts to move forward little by little!
"He who does not work shall not eat."
The village chief suddenly said this. He didn't know why he said it, but it suddenly came to his mind.
The farmer's thinking is still too close to reality. No matter which world it is, as long as the people still need to eat, the farmer's thinking will never be outdated!
Not long after, someone came to the village and was surprised to see the water. He asked where it came from.
"That's a very magical story. It might come from a very powerful young man. We don't know his name."
"His power makes us worship him, his grace makes us submit to him, and we are convinced by him."
"I heard that the most powerful person in the Central Plains is called the Emperor, so we will call that unknown young man the Yellow Emperor!"
"The Emperor of the Western Regions, a land of yellow sand!"
The village chief spoke.
Qin Qi did not leave his name, but as the story told by the village chief spread further and further [ten villages after ten that were helped by him began to spread this story]
story.
Until the entire Western Regions knew about this incident, they only knew about a very powerful young man, and only knew that the young man was honored as the Yellow Emperor!
But only Fan Yunfei and Li Xueyang knew that the man was Qin Qi, or the evil sect known as the demon in the Central Plains.
"Then, um, the person the story is about is, is it Qin Qi?"
When Fan Yunfei heard this story from Xiaoli for the first time, he was a little uncertain, so he asked.
"Who else could it be? Who else could do these things besides that demon Taoist?"
"But this guy is really brave. Even though he is wanted by the Central Plains, he still dares to do things so openly. He really doesn't know how to spell the word fear.
Li Xueyang and his men had already inherited the throne, and immediately had people collect Qin Qi's information and easily found a wanted order.
Only then did we learn that Qin Qi was a wanted criminal in the Central Plains, and also a genius demon who had researched the transformation of human into demon!
"He, he is very powerful."
Fan Yunfei looked towards the Western Regions. He seemed to be able to see that something had changed in the Western Regions, which were originally covered by yellow sand and lifeless.
There is more moisture, more hope, and more motivation! The sky is always filled with yellow sand without any green, but the vitality in people's hearts is very thriving!
"How could it not be amazing? Those people hadn't even seen him in person, but they were already captivated by his back."
"Ah, it's true that even though you're gone, your reputation remains. It will be even harder for you to gain recognition from the people of the Western Regions in the future."
Li Xueyang sighed. After Qin Qi changed the rules of the Western Region, anyone who wanted to become the master of this world had to gain the recognition of everyone.
But based on what Qin Qi has left behind and the reputation he has accumulated, is there anyone who can achieve greater achievements than him?
This feat is unprecedented and will probably never be surpassed. It is too difficult to surpass him, no, it is too difficult to even be on par with him!
"No, it doesn't matter. As long as everyone is well, it's fine."
Fan Yunfei didn't care much about this. He was not so obsessed with power and strength. As long as everyone could live a good life, that was enough.
This makes him very happy.
"Why."
Li Xueyang looked at her silly husband, a country dog, and couldn't help but sigh. She estimated that her silly husband would never be able to catch up with that evil Taoist priest in this lifetime.
"That fierce man, is he the Dragon King?"
The little sacrificial girl followed Xiao Li. She heard the legend of Qin Qi. In her understanding, only the Dragon King could summon the wind and rain!
"Well, that's not wrong. What Master Qin Qi did was indeed worthy of being called a Dragon King. Compared to those dragon monsters, he is a more qualified Dragon King.
Xiaoli began to explain.
"Well, then I'm going to go find him. I'm a sacrifice to the Dragon King."
The little sacrificial girl turned around and was about to leave. She still remembered the feeling in her heart when she first saw Qin Qi.
She didn't have that feeling when facing other people, and she didn't understand what it felt like before.
But now she understood, this was how a sacrifice would feel when facing the Dragon King! She wanted to give herself to Qin Qi to be eaten!
"No, that's not the case. You, you listen to me, Prince, Princess, come and help me!"
Xiaoli stopped the sacrificial little girl and no matter how she tried to persuade her, it was useless. She had no choice but to turn to Fan Yunfei and Li Xueyang for help.
But it was no use trying to persuade her, so they had no choice but to let the little girl go find Qin Qi.
