Chapter 111: A Feast That Never Ends in the World
As the energy of the orb was cut off, the Evil Spirit Corpse King lost the backbone that could control him, and finally shrank completely, its body quickly melted like a snowman under the scorching sun, turning into a pile of rotten flesh and gradually turning into blood.
Ye Zilan commanded everyone to carry the wounded and leave the crumbling mine as fast as possible, until everyone was far enough, she recited a spell, and on the body of the Evil Spirit Corpse King, a scorching ignition spell was summoned, igniting a raging flame, and this spell would last until it was completely burned out.
Then she turned around and released a teleportation spell, returned to the crowd, and quickly escaped from the unstable mine path with everyone, running a short road before the surrounding area of the passage stabilized.
Inside, the mine was surrounded by cracks, crumbling and threatening to collapse at any moment. They were able to defeat the Evil Corpse King before it collapsed, and it was really good luck to come out of there.
Ameira, who was useless in the battle and needed someone to protect her, could finally release her breath, leaving the people to take care of the wounded, and she began to direct everyone to dig and fill in, completely sealing off the side of the mine, as a place to provide ore, no matter where it leads, the passage on this side can no longer be left.
Four guards and two mages were sprayed with the blood of the Evil Spirit Corpse King, and although the injuries did not seem to be serious, the skin that was splashed was slowly corroding and dissolving, and the disgusting blood was as if it had grown on the body, and it could not be wiped off.
Ye Zilan asked them to form a circle around him, and then began to cast spells on the Soul Lust Staff, and several gaps opened at the top of the staff, exposing the Corpse King's Orb to the outside, and then the corrosive blood on the injured person's body flew towards the Orb, and at the same time, some of them couldn't help but scream!
At the same time that the blood of the evil spirit corpse king on the bodies of these injured people was sucked away by the orb, part of their own flesh and blood was also ripped away, and the flesh and blood were blurred and miserable, but except for the moment when the flesh and blood were torn, although these people trembled due to pain, no one made a sound of pain.
Ye Zilan hurriedly said: "Quickly bandage them with wound medicine, these corpse poisons have been extracted and will not continue to spread." His life was saved, but it's hard to say whether he would be infected or not! ”
As these people dealt with their wounds with all their hands and feet, after the aftermath was completed, none of the women present were no longer unconvinced because Ye Zilan did not have strong muscles on his body.
Seeing that all this was in full swing, He Ming approached Ye Zilan and asked her gently: "Are you okay, I feel that the corpse king's collision is not light, do you want to rest first?" ”
Ye Zilan heard the voice, turned around and smiled softly at him and said, "Fortunately, I can hold on, it's not the first time that I've been injured more seriously than this, thanks to you, otherwise the scene will definitely be much more difficult to clean up." ”
He Ming's face flushed, he always felt that he was just picking up a bargain, and this praise was a bit too much. And I can't help myself with all kinds of things, and I feel a little at a loss.
The crisis in the mine was solved once and for all, and after the Evil Corpse King was burned to the ground, and the already unstable mine was sealed, they finally began mining.
Since the mine was so close to the village, it was easy for the high-quality ore to be transported back to Cangyue Village as mining operations resumed. Amira was thrilled to open the smelting workshop, a skill that had been passed down from generation to generation but had not been used for many generations.
The reopening of smelting and casting led to a significant increase in the quantity and quality of the armor, weapons, and farming tools in the village within a few months, and with it, the efficiency of the work increased dramatically as the tools were optimized.
With Ye Zilan's help, Cangyue Village not only created more armor, but also cast shields and made bows and arrows. A few months have passed, and although Cangyue Village only has a few hundred people who can fight, it has also been built into a well-trained force, with both offensive and defensive capabilities, and long-range melee cooperation.
As the months passed, and as the village changed more and more effectively, there were no more direct voices of opposition to Ima, a village of only a few thousand people, and the only problem was that only a few men understood the value of freedom and dignity, and quickly adapted to the new life with hard work and care.
And most men still remember the days when they stayed at home, wore heavy makeup, and did some housework. They are accustomed to being squeamish, and they still cannot accept the occupation that they forcibly catch up with and take over, and not only are they inefficient, but they are also extremely slow to get started with technology, which has seriously affected the progress of work in many places.
"It's been half a year since the change, and all aspects are progressing quite smoothly, even much more efficient than planned. The only problem is that only a few of the men have embraced a new life, and most of them are still unmotivated and inefficient. There are also a few people who have developed the habit of being willing to work without receiving a few lashes. ”
Sophia reported this, and her expression of joy slowly turned to worry.
"That's it for now, just try to put those who like to be beaten into blocks, give them some low-tech work, and don't let the atmosphere spread to other people," Ima said. By the way, work harder, and don't let others take chances! ”
Then she added: "Also, Sophia, you need to pay attention, and find a way to calm the mood of the guards who oversaw it." In the past, there were people who did this kind of work and their personalities became tyrannical, and I don't want our time to be affected by this. ”
Sophia replied, and then went on to report, "Because of the guards who have been put in to collect food in the field, and the slipknot trap of Mr. Ho Ming's church, the food reserve is sufficient until winter, and the women have no complaints for the time being. ”
"That's good news, at least they have no excuse to boycott, you've worked really hard during this time, I know," Ima said. ”
But then Sophia frowned again and said:
"But there's news that I don't know if it's good news or bad news. Well, maybe in the past six months, the men have become stronger because of the heavier work, and many people in the village are pregnant, statistically speaking, the number of pregnant women in this year's well-fed autumn is more than three times more than in previous years......"
Ima sighed and said, "It must be good news, population growth is a good thing at this time, and we also need to prepare to get out of this crater and be trapped in it, of course we need more people." ”
Then she paced twice and said: "It's autumn now, and when it gets cold soon, there will be less work to do, and people who are pregnant next year can't work, so the workload in all aspects should be slightly reduced, so you can help me take care of these first, and always remember to make men accept manual work with relative respect." ”
Suvia answered, and immediately went out to deal with the matter that Ima's confession, with the changes in the village for half a year, most people had nothing to say, and even if there were objections among the women, they could only do it secretly.
Things made Imama relax a lot, but there were still a lot of things to worry about, turning her face to Ye Zilan and He Ming, her happy expression was worried, and said:
At this point, the change can be regarded as seeing results, as long as you are a little more careful later, there should not be many problems, and when the young boys are properly trained, all this will become better. On behalf of me personally and the entire village, I really appreciate you. ”
Ye Zilan said: "There is no need to say such kind words, if there is no house you provide, we don't know what it will be like on this island, I can do something for such a good place, I can only be satisfied in my heart." ”
He Ming suddenly interjected: "Thank you for this kind of thing, the captain of the guard really doesn't need to tell us, but we really need help with something, and I don't know if it's inconvenient for Fang to speak." ”
Ima shouted in a very rough tone: "You have spoken, and it is inconvenient for you to ask!" Now there is no one in the village who regards me as my own, and even you are going to do this to me? Is there something you can't say like before? As soon as the words were finished, the color of loneliness gradually climbed up his cheeks.
Ye Zilan said: "Yes, now you are the closest person in the village, and you can't be honest with each other, only the two of us outsiders are your own people." But what He Ming wants to say is that he hopes you can help us get out of this island. ”
The look of loneliness on Imma's face deepened, and after reacting, she asked with some surprise, "Leave?" Why are you leaving? Isn't it going well here? And we don't have a ship, so how are you going to cross the treacherous sea? ”
Ye Zilan said: "Ah, to be honest, Ima, at least I have lived the best place in my life except when I was very young, and it is this Cangyue Village." But you should know that people will always have their own things to do and places to go. ”
Ima thought for a moment and said, "That's right, it's autumn now, the capricious weather is basically over, and the wind direction and currents should stabilize for a while, but how do you leave?" We have restored a lot of the previous technology, but the ship cannot be built at all, and even if we order to build it now, it will not be able to be made in a while. ”
He Ming said: "I noticed that although there are not many trees on this island, they are all very tall and strong, as long as I collect some, I can build a strong raft out, which can withstand ordinary wind and waves, as long as there is no accident, there is no problem to float to land by ocean currents." ”
"But that's still too dangerous, and we live here, and we know very well that the sea is never really calm, and it's never clear when it will change," Ima said. Have you really made up your mind? ”
Ye Zilan looked at He Ming and said, "Yes, we have a reason to do it, and if we encounter danger again, it is just a matter of floating back to this island, and it is not a big problem for me to change the direction of the wind without seriously changing the direction of the wind." ”
