Jiang Yanfeng nodded and said, "Okay, I'll tell the immortal everything you said."
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Mingyue appeared on the horizon.
Just now, Luo Mingyue was watching the village, but she did not appear in the sight of the little people.
Luo Mingyue asked: "Xiao Qi, you said Fengya City will be in danger [in the future], when will it be?"
Chen Qi thought for a moment and said, "It will probably take at least a year."
"That's good." Luo Mingyue nodded. After all, she had just returned from Fengya City and it was impossible for her to rush there again now. Since it was still early, she was not in a hurry.
Qing Rui sat next to her, sighed, and said, "It's so hard to raise these little guys. I feel like I can't save them all..."
Luo Mingyue also sighed. In the beginning, she just regarded raising little people as a pastime when she had nothing to do. She wanted to improve the lives of the little people within her ability, but now she has developed feelings for them and it is impossible for her to just leave them alone.
However, the Lilliput Kingdom is too large, and Luo Mingyue is unable to handle it all. Even with the help of contracted beasts such as Kong Han and Ye Keke, he still feels overwhelmed.
However, the lives of most of the little people do not actually require Luo Mingyue's intervention, because there are [Yuanshui] awakeners sent by the court, the lives of the people in the towns are relatively normal, some villages have the protection of [Prophets], or like Xingfu Village, they believe in a certain god, so almost everyone can survive.
But there are also some villages whose people are unlucky. They have neither gods nor awakened people, and can only turn into a pile of dry bones.
Luo Mingyue is not a saint and cannot save all the people. He can only save whoever he meets.
"Master…" At this moment, Ye Keke called out and said nervously, "A lot of people have surrounded the town!"
Hearing this, Luo Mingyue arrived above Hulu Town and found that there were indeed many soldiers surrounding the town.
The officers and soldiers held badges in their hands, looked serious, and muttered something.
Gradually, the power of many waist badges intertwined together, resonating with the power of rules between heaven and earth, forming a huge "law network" that enveloped the entire Hulu Town.
Any living being covered by the "law net" will feel weak and drowsy.
Even if there are awakened people with strong willpower who do not fall asleep, their strength will be greatly reduced and they will become lambs to be slaughtered.
Outside the town, there were many soldiers carrying three coffins.
In each coffin lies a smart and lovely girl.
Ye Keke was puzzled and asked: "How come the bodies lying in these three coffins are exactly the same? Are they three twin sisters?"
Luo Mingyue said: "That's not a corpse, it's a living person... They are not sisters either, but the same person, but this person has countless clones. I can't find her real body at the moment, but it's not a big problem. I will kill her clones one by one. I will kill them until she dares not to come."
As he spoke, Luo Mingyue calmly stretched out his hand, took the French Open away first, rolled it up into a ball and put it into his own storage space.
Then, Luo Mingyue put down two stones one by one, smashing the girl lying in the coffin to death.
While smashing the coffin, he explained, "Last time, it was the girl in this coffin who wanted to kill the people in the entire town."
Ye Keke asked: "Why?"
Luo Mingyue said: "Because a few people in the town will turn into insects at night. These insects are called [disaster-reacting insects]. She believes that these insects are disasters and should be eliminated. But I think that [disaster-reacting insects] are just an evolution of humans in order to deal with disasters..."
"Evolution? What does that mean?" It was Ye Keke's first time as a human being, and she looked confused. She felt that it was because she had read too little that she didn't understand. She made up her mind to read more human books in the future.
Ye Keke ran out of the room quickly, picked up a stone and came back, intending to smash the girl in the third coffin to death.
However, the girl in the third coffin sat up and shouted with a pale face: "God, there must be some misunderstanding here. Please give me a chance to defend myself..."
Ye Keke hesitated for a moment, then Luo Mingyue picked up the third stone without hesitation and sent all the girls in the coffins to heaven.
The officers and soldiers were in a commotion. Just now when the French net was taken away, everyone could still remain calm, after all, they had the support of the national master. But now, three huge rocks fell from the sky and smashed all three coffins. The officers and soldiers finally panicked.
"The Imperial Master was beaten to death!"
"There must be a powerful insect king in this Hulu Town. This insect king can control objects through the air. It was the insect king who killed the state teacher with a stone!"
"Run away!"
"We must hurry back and report to the Emperor that there is an Insect King here that can resist the power of the Law Net. We must kill this Insect King as soon as possible..."
"Oh my god, this is the first time in my life that I know there is a force in this world that can compete with the French Open. Is there really an insect king in Hulu Town? The insect king is so powerful, will he eat us all?"
The officers and soldiers originally wanted to escape by carrying the coffin, which would also be considered as saving the remains of the national master. However, the problem was that there were stones in the coffin, which made it too heavy to lift. So everyone had to let go and run away.
Luo Mingyue touched his chin and said to himself: "So her identity is the national teacher. No wonder she is so powerful. She has survived so many times after being killed by me. She even dared to return to Hulu Town... But why do these three corpses seem so easy to kill this time? This national teacher didn't even resist..."
Ye Keke said weakly, "Is it possible that she resisted, but her strength was too weak, so the master didn't feel it?"
Luo Mingyue looked at her, "Hmm?"
Ye Keke said: "I just noticed that when the first stone fell, the girl in the coffin's eyes glowed red. She seemed to want to save herself, but the stone fell too fast and crushed her."
"When the second stone was about to fall, her hair exploded, and each strand of hair danced like a snake. She was shouting and begging for mercy, but the master was explaining to me why he wanted to kill her, so I didn't pay attention to what she was saying..."
"Only the third time did I hear her voice clearly, but the master killed her again..."
Having said that, Ye Keke glanced at Luo Mingyue awkwardly.
Luo Mingyue said: "Don't listen to the bad guys' excuses. Bad guys are cunning and may deliberately tell lies to gain your sympathy and make you reluctant to do it... You think she is pitiful and her death is tragic, but aren't those who were killed by her pitiful? I killed her to save more people. This is called stopping killing with killing."
Ye Keke nodded, not quite understanding, "I understand. I won't listen next time. It's mainly because this is my first time as a human being and I don't understand many things. Thank you, Master, for telling me this."
When Luo Mingyue heard this, she took advantage of Kong Han and Song Lu being there and said, "I've heard a saying before, that villains die because they talk too much. Do you know what villains mean? In this world, there is black and white, there is good and there is evil. Villains are equivalent to the evil side. Villains talk too much. They could have killed the enemy, but they end up talking non-stop and waiting for the enemy's reinforcements... So, if you have an enemy in the future, the first thing you should do when you catch the enemy is to stop talking nonsense and directly send the enemy to heaven."
Kong Han said: "Okay, I'll remember it."
Song Lu looked confused, "Am I a villain?"
Luo Mingyue said: "No, but no matter whether they are villains or not, you can't be soft-hearted when dealing with your enemies, otherwise you will be the one who suffers."
Song Lu said: "Well, I understand. I have a long life. If anyone dares to provoke me, I don't have to take revenge personally. I just need to wait quietly and I will outlast my enemy!"
Luo Mingyue: "…"
Ye Keke asked: "Master, if that's the case, should we kill these soldiers as well? After all, they are helping the tyrant and are not good people either..."
Luo Mingyue shook her head and said, "They are just following orders. There is no need to embarrass them."
Ye Keke said: "But if they don't want to do bad things, why don't they just stop being soldiers? Then they don't have to follow orders. Anyway, I feel that they are not good..."
Hearing this, Luo Mingyue was reminded of her past life. She couldn't help but said sadly, "You don't understand the hardship of workers. I worked two jobs a day, and I didn't get overtime pay for overtime. I also had to work an extra part-time job on weekends. I was exhausted to death... But no matter how hard and tired I was, I didn't dare to quit because I was carrying a huge debt..."
"ah?"
Ye Keke was confused again, "Workers? Overtime pay?"
Luo Mingyue shook her head and waved her hands in a disinterested manner, "Forget it, you don't understand, and I don't want to explain it anymore. After all, it's already a thing of the past."
Ye Keke suddenly raised his hand and slapped his forehead, saying, "Oh, what a sin, what a sin, I suddenly remembered that I am a good demon, I never eat people, and I never hurt people. Just now I almost killed someone with a stone, it was so scary, I must control myself in the future, and never do such impulsive things again."
There are two types of monsters, one is meat-eater and the other is vegetarian. "Eating meat" here refers to eating humans. Humans are blessed by nature and are the darlings of heaven and earth. The monsters in the world dream of transforming into human form, because only with human form can they become a great monster. Just like Qinglong has such noble blood, but still chooses to transform into a human form, which is enough to prove the attraction of human form to monsters. Once they eat humans or kill people, the breath on their bodies will be tainted with blood, which is unacceptable to immortal cultivators.
As for "vegetarian", it does not mean that this monster grew up eating grass. For example, there is a wolf monster that eats sheep and rabbits, but as long as it does not eat humans, it is classified as a "vegetarian monster".
The four contracted beasts of Luo Mingyue are all vegetarian monsters. When Ye Keke encounters immortal cultivators in trouble, he will lend a helping hand, which can be regarded as a loving person.
But in the past few days, Ye Keke was obsessed with observing the villains in Hulu Town. In her heart, she had unknowingly treated these villains as her own "children". Of course, using "children" as a metaphor may not be appropriate, but Ye Keke did devote her time and affection to the people of Hulu Town. So, when she heard that the national teacher in the coffin wanted to kill the people of the entire town, Ye Keke almost did it herself.
Luo Mingyue comforted him: "It's okay, those are all clones of the national teacher, it doesn't count as real murder."
Qing Rui agreed, "Yes, I can testify to this. The Imperial Master is not dead."
Ye Keke's face was still full of worry. She felt that one day she would break her vows and kill people to protect the people of Hulu Town. Because mortals have their own karma and reincarnation, life and death are predetermined, and immortal cultivators and big monsters should not interfere too much.
In contrast, Kong Han and Song Lu did not have such worries. After all, there were differences in the thinking of men and women. Ye Keke's thoughts were more delicate and sensitive, but Kong Han was too lazy to think so much. Currently, there were only three things in his mind:
one was to make Ye Keke fall in love with him, to be with him, and to be sweet and happy;
The second is to complete the task assigned to him by Luo Mingyue and make the people of Mojia Village safe and sound without disaster or disease;
The third is to wait until Luo Mingyue is short of manpower, and recommend all his relatives and clansmen to him, and everyone will transform together. In the future, the Peacock Clan will be full of human-shaped monsters. How impressive it will be if others spread the news!
As for Song Lu, his idea was even simpler. His true form was a tortoise, and he was a rather docile and gentle person. He didn't have any tribesmen of his own. He liked to be still and didn't like exercise, but he liked to see others working hard. Tianliu Village was full of vitality, and people of different ages were practicing martial arts every day, including children, teenagers, middle-aged and elderly people...
Overall, Song Lu enjoys his current life.
The only drawback is that occasionally a black shadow monster will appear, and you need to quickly touch it with your finger to make it disappear.
After the officers and soldiers outside Hulu Town fled in all directions, everything soon returned to calm. Ye Keke also chatted with Fang Yurong, the [Prophet] of Hulu Town, for a while. During the chat, Ye Keke said, "I feel like there's one more person in the town."
Fang Yurong said, "Only one more? People from nearby villages will come to the town to buy water. If they are lucky, they will encounter a Yuanshui awakener who is causing rain. They can drink the water themselves and save the cost of buying water... So there will be some floating population in the town."
Ye Keke sighed, "Is this the mortal world? Some people can enjoy rainwater for free, while others have to spend money to buy it... and it's also a waste if the rainwater falls on the ground. It would be great if it rained in the village too."
Fang Yurong sighed and said, "There is no other way. The number of Yuanshui awakeners is limited. We cannot let the rain moisten every inch of land."
Ye Keke asked, "What about the [Wuzhu]? I heard that the [Wuzhu] can pray for rain."
Fang Yurong shook her head and said, "This is different. [Yuanshui] is equivalent to inducing the rules between heaven and earth to generate rain. [Wuzhu], in essence, is not about creating water, but praying to the gods and asking for their mercy. Only if the gods respond, can rain fall. The problem is that Hulu Town does not have any [gods] that are recognized by everyone. Many people have no faith at all, and we don't have [Wuzhu] either."
