Chapter 699: Guyang Villager's Exotic Journey
The cause of the incident is still the sister of the yellow badger - the white rabbit demon Bai Xiaohui.
The Snake King Mountain has besieged human cities and villages for a month, and during this period, many trivial things have happened every day and in every place, and it is naturally impossible for the Yellow Badger and the Snake Queen to know everything.
For example, in a human village called "Guyang Village" in the north of the Gu Que Sect, it happened to be besieged by the demon soldier team led by Bai Xiaohui, and some interesting things happened during this period.
There is no doubt that ordinary human villagers are afraid of the demon clan...... In the stories that people continue from generation to generation and pass on from mouth to mouth, once an ordinary person is captured by a monster, there may not be one out of a hundred who comes back alive.
But on the other hand, these humans living in ordinary small mountain villages are facing more than just youkai!
On the contrary, youkai are actually very difficult to encounter, and as long as you don't venture into the mountains, you will basically not encounter youkai...... The more common dangers are natural disasters, man-made disasters, wild animals, famine, and so on! The scarcity of all kinds of materials and the shortage of food are what ordinary villagers need to worry about the most.
Guyang Village is a small village with agriculture as the main thing and hunting as the supplement, so small that there are not even any immortal cultivators stationed here, and more than 70% of the villagers' daily food comes from rice and other crops grown in the paddy fields around the village.
However, this year's weather is not ideal, there is not much rain, and the paddy fields rely on the villagers to work tirelessly to carry water from deep wells in the distance for irrigation, so that they can barely stay dry...... But when the entire village was besieged by the demon clan, everyone didn't dare to leave the village for half a step, which lasted for nearly a month, you can imagine what would happen to those farmlands!
Without the harvest of crops, even if the demon clan outside does not come to kill them, the villagers are destined to starve to death.
In the midst of desperation, human potential is limitless...... After discovering that the demon clan surrounded the village but did not attack for a long time, a small number of the villagers of Guyang Village still had the courage to step out of the gate of the village, wanting to secretly water their farmland!
As a result, they saw a scene that shocked them.
The paddy fields have been well cared for, and there is no sign of drying up! And there are a few strange-looking monsters walking around the fields!
Watch them pull weeds and pinch pests to death in the fields...... Watching them casually summon a small dark cloud and rain a light rain...... Watch them laugh and easily drive away the beasts that plague the crops...... Looking at the rice fields that grew better than they took care of themselves, these villagers felt that their outlook on life had been turned upside down for so many years!
What are you kidding, youkai also grow crops?
Or better than what we plant?!
They didn't know that Snake King Mountain was an outlier among the many demon forces...... Due to the continuous innovation of the dishes of the Three Realms Restaurant, countless foodies have now been cultivated up and down the Snake King Mountain, and even many demon clans have learned to grow rice and raise livestock by themselves, and then hand them over to the group of ingenious monkey demons in the Three Realms Restaurant to cook human food.
Ordinary demon clans are like this, not to mention the small group of demon soldiers personally led by Bai Xiaohui.
So, when the group of villagers ran back to Guyang Village and relayed what they had seen and heard one by one, the whole village soon couldn't bear it anymore and ran to the entrance of the village to watch from afar.
As the younger sister of Brother Badger, entering and leaving Nuwa City at will is like her own back garden, and she has long been familiar with human beings...... She ran over without fear and greeted the villagers with a smile.
The elf girl in the velvet white dress, two fluffy cute rabbit ears, a short pom-pom tail, a beautiful face and a harmless appearance of humans and animals, it is really difficult to equate her with a cruel and man-eating monster...... coupled with Xiaohui's self-cooked personality, and the shock brought by the scene of the demon clan helping to plough the fields......
The villagers of Guyang Village actually overcame their fear for the first time and had a certain amount of communication with this demon clan, instead of being afraid to the point of weakness at a glance from afar.
However, the sky is unpredictable.
Just yesterday, a swarm of locusts visited Guyang Village.
Locust plague, in this era, if there is no help from powerful immortal cultivators, it is an unsolvable disaster.
Ordinary immortal cultivators, unless they are masters of formations, although they can kill a large number of locusts, they will only miss more, and they will not be able to stop the footsteps of the locust plague.
Xiaohui's demon soldier squad can't do it either......
In this demon clan team, the one with the highest morality is Xiaohui, the demon general! But even she can't kill the overwhelming insect swarm, let alone other demon soldiers. It's a pity that none of the dozen or so demon soldiers are insects, otherwise they can use the coercion of their own clan to forcibly deter the insect swarm like the bird instructor of the Sky Splitting Battalion.
In the case of non-clans, the breath of other demon soldiers could not scare these simple-minded and hungry bugs at all......
So, under the desperate eyes of all the villagers of Guyang Village, in the struggle of more than a dozen demon clans, the locust swarm blew through all the farmland like the wind, gnawed all the crops, leaving only a corpse and debris and debris, and finally left.
Nothing is gone
The village chief of Guyang Village, the trembling old man in black, even sat on the ground and cried.
And it was at this time that the Snake Queen gave the order for all the staff to retreat......
Although Xiaohui regrets what happened to the villagers, she can't help it, although she has some life-saving things that the yellow badger gave her, and even can crush the yellow badger's token for help in an emergency, but she won't do it! In her heart, the badger brother is undoubtedly the first, her brother is busy with important things in the distance, and Xiaohui can't interfere with him because of this kind of thing.
And just as the demon clan team was about to leave, a young human villager stood up on a whim and cautiously made a request - I hope that the demon clan led by Xiaohui can take them away!
After a few days of initial contact, the villagers of Guyang Village have vaguely known that Snake King Mountain is a place with abundant water and soil, and no worries about food and clothing. If everyone stays here, I'm afraid they can only starve to death, there is not much surplus food in the village, and it is too late for the merchants to go to the nearby city for help, in this case, why not take the risk to ask this group of demon clans for help?
At least the group of demon clans in front of them doesn't look as bad as the legend says.
Just like that, the humans of a village followed Xiaohui's demon soldier team in a daze and returned to Snake King Mountain......
On the way, of course, he was discovered by the three commanders.
However, the litter of cubs of the badger brother's family does not belong to any of the three major battalions in Snake King Mountain now, but directly under the jurisdiction of the mountain guard, almost the second generation of officials...... So the three commanders didn't stop it.
So hundreds of humans appeared in the lair of a group of demons, like a flock of lambs into the flock.
"You......" Huang Badger knew what was going on, and rubbed Xiaohui's head a little helplessly, "Fortunately, I saw it, otherwise when Tang Seng and his apprentice came, we would not be able to tell if we had 10,000 mouths in Snake King Mountain......"
"I was thinking, if it's a big deal, I'll send it to Sanssouci City to settle down temporarily. Xiaohui pouted a little depressedly.
"Well, since I found it early, it's not a good thing, and maybe it can come in handy...... Xiaohui, you take them to settle down now, remember, you must let everyone eat, live and have fun, and feel the hospitality of our Snake King Mountain Demon Clan! No matter who asks in the future, everyone will willingly answer that this is a very pleasant trip to Snake King Mountain!"
"......" Xiaohui was stunned when she heard this, her mouth opened slightly, and she was almost a question mark.
......
After sending Xiaohui away, Huang Badger's expression quickly became solemn.
Next, it's time for your important task...
As for what task?
Looking at the entire Snake King Mountain, if you want to find a demon who can closely monitor the movements around the Snake King Mountain, find the traces of the Journey to the West master and apprentice at the first time, and ensure their own safety while contacting, and lead them to the main peak of the Snake King Mountain, then only the Yellow Badger can do it.
In other words, look at the wind and guide the way!
And the snake queen is going to sit on the main peak of the snake king mountain...... Although Brother Badger has already made some arrangements on Gu Xingshi's side, it is estimated that the other party should come openly, but there is no guarantee that the Monkey King will not be rash, take advantage of the ability to change, sneak in alone, and kill directly! The Snake Queen sits in the Heavenly Snake Palace, and if Sun Wukong appears, he will resolve the conflict between the two sides as soon as possible.
To put it bluntly, just wait for them to come to the door, the other party will come to the bright, the badger brother will follow, the dark one will come, and the snake queen will follow.
And before carrying out the task of looking for the wind, Brother Badger has one more important thing to get done.
That's to get rid of this damn kraft candy on the top of your head first, the evil cloud.
