"Have you heard? Several more people died in the west of the city."
"Why haven't you heard of it? I heard that the death was very miserable. Not a trace of flesh and blood was left, only a white skeleton was left.
I even went to see it, and it was terrifying! I kept having nightmares when I went home at night and couldn't sleep well at all. Look at the dark circles under my eyes. Otherwise, why do you think I came to the pharmacy? "
"Hey, Mingyue City is getting more and more chaotic now, and all kinds of monsters and ghosts are coming out."
"I hope the City Lord's Mansion can take care of it!"
"Hey... what do you expect from the City Lord's Mansion..."
Before the man finished speaking, his companion covered his mouth. Some words were not something ordinary people like them could say casually.
"Come on, let's talk inside." Changyue withdrew her gaze and said to Yu Ruyi.
"Yes!" Yu Ruyi nodded respectfully.
"Did something happen in the west of the city?" Changyue asked as she walked.
The west part of the city is now the refugee area of the entire Mingyue City.
As the snowstorm became more and more severe, ordinary people outside the city basically lost their homes. The city lord's palace kept blocking them outside the city, and finally had to set aside a site in the west of the city for them to live.
Of course, this does not change the situation of the refugees much. Should they starve and freeze, they still have to starve and freeze.
The smart refugees have already fled outside Mingyue City, and the rest are those who still hold on to the hope that Mingyue City will return to its original state.
After all, being far away from home still requires a lot of determination for some people.
Now in Mingyue City, even if you want to sell yourself, it is difficult, because no one wants to buy it, and even the five major families don't have the extra resources to support people, let alone others.
However, Cangyue Pavilion had secretly taken action several times and took in many young and homeless children.
Cangyue Pavilion is not short of money, and the caravans from Heilong Village are constantly delivering supplies from outside, so it is currently in a period of vigorous development.
In Cangyue Pavilion, children who pass the test will be taught the lower-level skill "Qinglian Sutra", and those who perform well will be taught the middle-level skill "Tianhai Secret Code".
Becoming a warrior is what many ordinary people dream of, so the children worked hard and looked forward to passing the test as soon as possible every day.
The first group of people that Yu Ruyi collected had already started practicing, and some had even begun to go out for activities, such as going to the outskirts of Daqing Mountain to collect herbs and explore.
Cangyue Pavilion is not only training warriors, but also training pharmacists.
The teaching materials for the apprentices were compiled together by Chang Yue and Yu Ruyi after discussion. Although the content was not complicated, they were all the essence. The purpose was to enable the apprentices to start teaching as soon as possible.
Hearing Chang Yue's inquiry, Yu Ruyi replied: "Recently, people have died frequently in the west of the city, and their flesh and blood have been eaten away. So far, more than ten people have died, so people are panicking."
"Have you found out the reason?" Changyue asked again.
"The city lord's palace said that a strange beast has sneaked into the city. There are many warriors in the city now searching for this strange beast, but there has been no progress so far."
Changyue nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
When they arrived in the backyard, Yu Ruyi began to report on the cooperation with the Fifth Family.
At present, most of the Zhuangzi of the Fifth Family have replanted snow lotus grass with the help of Cangyue Pavilion. The snow lotus grass is growing well, and I believe it will not take long to harvest.
But according to Yu Ruyi, the snow lotus grown in other places does not seem to grow as well as in Lihua Village.
After hearing the news, Chang Yue fell into deep thought. She guessed that this might be related to the fact that Lihua Village is close to Daqing Mountain.
Nowadays, many water-type ice-type treasures have been born around Daqingshan. It is reasonable for ordinary ice-type medicinal materials such as snow lotus to grow better.
Chang Yue was concerned about the cooperation with the five aristocratic families, while Grandma Feng, who was inspecting the situation in Lihua Village, encountered a little accident.
Because Lihua Village was often harassed by warriors, Chang Yue thought that letting the people in the village start practicing martial arts would help them protect themselves, so she asked Granny Feng to select a group of young people in the village. Teach them the "Green Lotus Sutra".
Today, Grandma Feng was checking the children's cultivation progress when she suddenly saw Zhuangtou Li Gui walking into the yard in a panic.
"Mother-in-law, it's not good, it's not good!"
Grandma Feng saw this and scolded her with a straight face: "How unbecoming is it to shout!"
When Li Gui saw Granny Feng's face, he immediately shrunk his neck and did not dare to scream anymore. He had always been afraid of Granny Feng, who had a serious personality. He was more afraid of Granny Feng than of girls.
"Mother-in-law, the pears in the village are ripe, and many warriors came outside. Not only did they pick a lot of our pears, they also knocked down many trees!" Li Gui said distressedly.
In the past, pears that even dogs in Lihua Village would not eat were now treasures, and the residents of the village took good care of them.
The reason why Lihua Village is called Lihua Village is because there are many wild pear trees growing around the village.
However, although these pear trees are wild, since they grow on the land of Lihua Village, they are naturally the property of Lihua Village.
In the past, the fruits of the pear trees near Lihua Village were small and sour, and no one ate them or cared about them. Since Mingyue City suffered a snow disaster, people in Zhuangzi have almost forgotten about those pear trees.
However, one day, a villager suddenly discovered that all the pear trees bloomed overnight, and the flowers bloomed were completely different from the previous pear flowers. Not only were the petals crystal clear, as if they were made of ice crystals, but they also exuded a cool feeling. The fragrance is very nice.
The villagers reported the matter to Granny Feng immediately. Granny Feng immediately realized that these pear trees had mutated and might become treasures, so she asked the villagers to take good care of them.
Grandma Feng was not in a hurry to tell Chang Yue about this. She thought about waiting for the pear tree to bear fruit. If it was really a treasure, then she would give the lady a surprise.
Recently, it seems that fruits are about to mature on a large scale, especially in the past two days, pears have matured early on several trees that bloomed earlier.
Grandma Feng has personally tested it and found that this ice pear is indeed no longer an ordinary fruit. It actually has a weak effect of purifying the true energy, and the fruit tastes very delicious.
This surprised Grandma Feng, and she thought that when the fruits were ripe, she would bring more back to the lady to try.
Unexpectedly, before her young lady had eaten, an outsider came to help her!
"How brave! I want to see who dares to be so bold as to come here to cause trouble!"
After saying this, Granny Feng strode out of the courtyard, as if the wind was riding on her feet.
When she arrived at the pear forest, she saw a group of people scrambling to pick pears. Some of the unripe fruits were picked by them, and the ground was covered with small ungrown fruits.
It’s so deceiving!
"stop!!!"
Grandma Feng's eyes were red with anger, how could this happen? What happened? They are all her lady’s pears!
Hearing Grandma Feng's voice, the dozen or so people who were picking pears stopped. One of them cursed angrily: "How dare you interfere with your grandfathers' affairs!"
Granny Feng laughed angrily, "Okay! Okay! Okay! It seems like it's time to fertilize the orchard at my old lady's house today!"
The man wanted to say something else, but Grandma Feng raised her palm and slapped it forward fiercely. A huge palm filled with jade-colored Qi flew out and went straight towards the man.
The man's face changed drastically, and he wanted to dodge, but it was too late.
Pfft~
Under everyone's horrified gaze, the man was slapped into blood mist by Granny Feng.
"How dare you come here to cause trouble! I don't even know where this place is. It's your turn to run wild as a bunch of little thieves. You don't know what the heavens and the earth are!"
Granny Feng's face was full of coldness, and her eyes were filled with murderous intent when she looked at these people.
"No! This old woman is a master of the Shangyuan realm! Run!"
So everyone began to flee in all directions, not forgetting to carry the ice pears they picked before leaving.
But they were just warriors at the Kai Pulse Realm, so how could they easily escape from the hands of a Shangyuan Realm warrior.
Originally, Granny Feng was only in the Lower Yuan Realm. Later, relying on the resources provided by the Changyue Belt, she recently broke through to the Upper Yuan Realm. She has not yet used her powerful Qi!
I saw Grandma Feng slapping her hands quickly, and the burst of true energy stirred around her body, making her clothes rustle, and then a series of large handprints were smacked towards those who were flying out.
Puff puff puff~~~
The group of people who were arrogant just now turned into blood mist in the blink of an eye, splashing on the snow in the orchard and becoming fertilizer for the orchard.
Seeing this scene, the villagers of Lihuazhuang who came over cheered and applauded.
Recently, they have been annoyed to death by these foreign warriors. Several villagers have been directly killed by the foreign warriors because they collided with them. This has caused resentment in the hearts of the villagers, and they want to personally kill those warriors who have done evil.
After doing all this, Granny Feng raised her voice and shouted to the people around her: "From now on, anyone who comes to Lihua Village to cause trouble will weigh me to see if the bones in their body are strong enough. If they are not strong enough, they will leave Lihua Village on their own initiative." Zhuangyuan."
Grandma Feng's voice was filled with true energy. Even if there was wind, it could spread around Lihua Village. She knew that there were many other warriors hiding around and watching them. Today was just the right time to give them a warning, so that none of them could be spared. I know the sky is high and the earth is high.
Huh huh~~ Is my young lady’s things something you guys can covet?
Seeing Granny Feng's domineering side, Li Gui's heart surged not far away. This is the power of a warrior!
His eldest granddaughter and youngest grandson are now practicing martial arts with Granny Feng. If one day they can really succeed in their studies and then find a decent job with the girl, then their future will be really bright!
Li Gui's heart felt hot, and he suddenly felt energetic all over his body. He rushed to the orchard and shouted to Granny Feng:
"Mother-in-law, please leave this place to us. You can go back and rest as soon as possible."
As he spoke, he called the villagers into the forest to clean up the messy fruit trees and fruits.
Granny Feng nodded, and before leaving, she said to Li Gui: "Pick some fruits that Zhou Zheng likes, and I'll bring them back for you to try!"
"Okay. Don't worry!" Li Gui happily agreed.
After finishing his work, Li Gui went home and saw his grandchildren discussing what they had learned today, so he stepped forward with satisfaction and said: "Your family must study hard. After you learn the skills, you can work for the girl. Grandpa will die by then." Rest in peace!"
Li Datou, Li Gui's son, came back from outside and happened to hear what his father said, so he said angrily: "Dad, you are talking nonsense again. You are talking about keeping your eyes closed. We are following the girl now, and the good days are still there." What’s behind!”
Hearing this, Li Gui's daughter-in-law quickly echoed her husband, "That's right, dad, don't always talk nonsense, you have to live a good life and take care of the village for the girl!"
If Chang Yue hadn't asked Granny Feng to guard Lihua Village, Lihua Village would have been completely slaughtered by those foreign warriors. How could there be such a stable life now, let alone the opportunity for children to practice martial arts.
Therefore, almost everyone in Lihua Village regards Chang Yue as a god.
The lower class people these days have very simple ideas. They will firmly support whoever can bring them a better life.
Hearing his daughter-in-law's words, Li Gui's wrinkled face raised a smile, "I'm old, how long can I live? From now on, this Zhuangzi will have to look at you young people. In two years, I will ask the girl to take over the Zhuangzi. ."
"You just like to think wildly!" Li Datou said helplessly.
After talking about his father, he looked at his daughter and son again, "But your grandfather is right in what he said. Learn your skills well so that you can repay the girl for her kindness to us."
"Father, grandpa, don't worry! My brother and I will definitely work hard!" Li Datou's daughter Jinhua said firmly.
In this world, ordinary women have a harder time than men, so Jinhua cherishes this rare opportunity.
Jinhua had witnessed several villagers being killed by foreign warriors before, so since she had the opportunity to practice martial arts, she vowed to study hard. She didn't want to be a lamb waiting to be slaughtered forever.
Jinhua's younger brother Jinye was just over ten years old and didn't understand anything yet. Seeing his sister talking, he nodded along, "Yeah, I'll work hard too!"
Li Gui and Li Datou both smiled with satisfaction when they saw this.
After Chang Yue returned home from Cangyue Pavilion, he released the big bull from the mirror of all things, and then took out some thousand-year-old ice.
She planned to go to the black market again tonight, to the Wind and Frost Weapon Shop to see if they could make arrows out of thousand-year ice.
Chang Yue has already begun to practice "Tianxin Archery". Although arrows can be formed by using Zhen Qi, the lethality of Zhen Qi arrows is far less than that of real arrows, so Chang Yue plans to make several ice arrows as backup. .
Thousand-year ice is an excellent material for making weapons, but it is too strong and difficult to forge. I wonder if the Fengshuang Weapon Shop can do anything about it.
Because the Universal Mirror cannot be used openly, Chang Yue plans to let Daniel carry the thousand-year ice to the black market tonight.
Just when Chang Yue was about to find a bag to wrap up the thousand-year-old ice, Granny Feng's voice came from outside the door.
"Sangye, is the lady back?"
"Mother-in-law! The lady has just come back, she should be in the house."
Not long after, Grandma Feng's voice came from outside the door of Changyue's house.
"Miss?"
"Mother-in-law, I'm here, come in." Changyue said.
As the door creaked open, Granny Feng walked in carrying a tray.
