Many demon nobles flew down on black clouds, and were greeted by the soldiers responsible for guarding the humans, and stood outside the cave where the humans lived.
There were two pots of boiling water on both sides of the square outside the cave, and a thick green-yellow demon vine was planted on the side of the two pots of boiling water.
When many humans were driven out by the demon warriors, the demon vine sent its thick rattan into the boiling water, drew out the boiling water, and then turned it into a scalding water gun and swept it towards the crowd.
Many people were screamed by the scalding water and kept jumping on the spot. With the movement of Qi and blood throughout the body, one's own essence, Qi, and spirit are also released and cannot be hidden.
Seeing many human beings holding the burned parts of their bodies and screaming in pain, those fat demon nobles laughed happily.
This laughter is not mixed with any mockery or deliberate contempt. To them, humans at this time are like monkeys in the zoo.
That pure and simple smile when we watch a monkey make a fool of himself. There is no difference between the smile of the demon and the human being at this moment.
The so-called contempt and disdain, to a certain extent, still apply to species that stand on a parallel line from the level of life. At this moment, in the eyes of these monsters, people... are not worthy of being on the same level as them.
"The quality of the human medicine this time is not very good!" A fat demon with long pink hair on his head said.
Another demon next to her immediately showed its sharp fangs, grabbed the man with the wild boar head, and said viciously: "Did you withhold the feed for these people's medicine? Look at each of these. You are sallow and skinny, but my father has wanted to eat a good human elbow for a long time. If he knew that you were not well fed, how do you think he would punish you?"
The steward hurriedly nodded and bowed, wiped the non-existent cold sweat on his head, and said in a flattering tone: "Master Wei, please calm down. Although these human medicines are not strong enough, they are all full of energy and full of medicinal properties. They are used to make people better. The elbow may not be flavorful enough, but when baked or fried, it’s full of flavor.”
As he spoke, the steward himself drooled a few drops.
Being a manager also comes with some perks. Last month, he secretly broke the leg of a little girl who was just a few years old and reported it as disabled and unable to continue practicing. Then I cooked a pot of soup and ate it very happily.
"Okay! Quickly help me pick a few good ones. My cultivation is about to break through to the realm of the Great Demon. I need to make up for it so that I can break through in one fell swoop. If you dare to fool me, be careful with your skin." Young Master Wei threatened. .
"Mr. Wei, please! You have a total of five places this time. This is a rule. Mr. Wei, please be considerate." The steward said.
Mr. Wei nodded indifferently, but then said: "This rule of the Demon King is really..., in fact, it is just a mere human medicine. If you don't have it, go out and catch it. These human medicines have no power, but their reproductive ability is still good. of."
Another demon noble son on the side said: "Wei Ge is wrong! Although the human medicine has no power, the human medicine in the wilderness outside not only tastes like firewood, but is also wild and untamable. There is no taste in the mouth. How can it be as good as it?" Those of us who have domesticated the medicine for generations. Not only the skin and flesh are tender, but also the medicinal power is profound. No matter what method is used to cook it, it is always delicious."
Mr. Wei was unconvinced and said: "That's not necessarily true. Domestic food has the benefits of domestic food, and game food also has the taste of game food. Although the human medicine in the mountains lacks the necessary nourishing effect, after mixing some elixirs and cooking them for many days, The meat is also extremely strong."
The other demon master did not continue to argue with him, and just said: "Wei Ge is right! But he is much more knowledgeable than me, little brother."
Mr. Wei laughed loudly when he heard this, and then randomly named a fair and plump girl in the crowd, an old man with strong muscles, a little boy under ten years old, and a middle-aged man with fairly well-developed muscles.
When each of these four people was selected, a demon warrior would pounce on them, tie them up quickly, and then knock them out with one punch to prevent them from being scared out of their wits and causing the meat to taste bad.
What came from the crowd around him was a low sigh, mixed with slight relief, secret joy, and deep-seated sadness.
"Girls use it for steaming, old people use it for stew, little boys can bake it directly, middle-aged people can use it for frying, and Master Wei can eat it!" The steward showed his thumb and continued to flatter.
Mr. Wei smiled and said: "You are the only one who has knowledge. It seems that you have eaten a lot."
The manager immediately said aggrievedly: "Master Wei, you have wronged me... Although I am in charge of this piece of human medicine, it seems like a nice job, but it is actually a meticulous job. You don't know how disgusting these human medicines are, especially It was a few days before the medicine selection day, and many people were struggling to survive. Just the day before yesterday, another one hit the wall and died. He also took blood-staining medicine before he died. He couldn't take it, so he had to throw it away and feed it. Savage beast.”
"Okay! I don't want to listen to your nonsense. These four human medicines are just used to satisfy the desires of the tongue. Now I still need the best human medicine, which can be used as a primer to cook a pot of tonic to enhance my cultivation." Mr. Wei said.
The steward said: "Mr. Wei, please! Over there is the elite youth area in the human medicine. They are all human medicine close to the level of little demon. But please be careful, Master Wei. You can only choose one in the elite area. Please be considerate."
Mr. Wei nodded and strode over, followed not only by the steward, but also by the fat and white demon.
Among the crowd, Yan clenched his fists and his whole body was shaking.
He felt several vague eyes scanning towards him.
Yuan's eyes were determined, and there was a smile on his lips. He showed no signs of nervousness about facing a great crisis. He was obviously very calm and had the demeanor of a general.
Finally, the wave of demons approached.
The selection of medicine has almost come to an end.
Yan could hear his rapidly beating heartbeat.
He had experienced drug selection not once or twice, but this time was particularly different. He may be seeking his own death, but it is for the hope of the human race.
Yan tried his best not to look at Yuan. He didn't want to leave Yuan with a pair of eyes full of jealousy and unwillingness before he died. If death cannot be avoided.
Then he hopes that one day, his name can be engraved on the human race's memorial tablet.
This was his own decision, no one forced him.
But there was always an invisible force that turned into responsibility, burden, expectation, everything... pushing him to make such an unwilling choice.
Buzz!
In the huge qi and blood, the power was swimming rapidly.
He was like a ball of fire, successfully attracting Mr. Wei's attention.
"Okay! What a human medicine with full energy and blood and compelling spiritual energy. That's him! Tie him up, clean him and send him to the medicine room!" Mr. Wei pointed at Yan and said.
When Yan heard this, his whole body softened and he closed his eyes.
At this time, Lin Xi had focused all his attention on this world...or, in other words, this small jade mountain in this world.
After a long absence...he actually felt the direction of progress from these weak, powerless 'human medicines' who were unable to control their own destiny.
That is something that he may have long forgotten and disappeared, or perhaps ignored.
