0040 Forced eviction
"Missy, hurry up and get to work! Don't be lazy!
That thing flies around every day, what else is there to see! ā
In the dry field of the village, Mi Lei, a cat-human girl with a yellow spot on her left ear, straightened up angrily, and stared at her twin sister who also had a yellow spot on her right ear with her hands on her waist.
But her sister kept staring at the dark green iron bird flying in this direction, her white hair and tail swaying gently in the wind, as if she had not heard what she had said.
"Missy! Missy! I'll pluck your ears if you're lazy! ā
"No...... Sister, you see that thing flying towards us. And the lower you fly, you want to fall, right? ā
Although Missy's ears were facing away from her sister, her sister's voice was clearly heard. But she didn't look back, just raised her hand to put her erected ears over her head, and her eyes were fixed on the iron thing that was constantly magnifying in her field of vision.
Mi Lei looked up and saw that the vampire's flying prop in the distance had deviated from the fixed route of the previous day and flew straight towards their village.
So her face immediately changed drastically, grabbed her sister, who was still fluting, turned her head and ran towards the village.
"What else to see! Run! Go back and inform grandpa...... Hurry up and tell everyone about it! ā
"Huh? That thing has been just going around here, and IāI don't think it's malicious......"
"You idiot! Why didn't you come here with any malice! It's not going to be a good thing for a vampire to come to the door! If it's not big, why would people move out! ā
"yes...... Why do you want to move away? Where else can we go? ā
"Now is the time to ponder this! Why don't you have a sense of urgency at all! Are we really twins! ā
The elder sister, who was always worried about her sister, and the younger sister, who was not worried about anything, gave full play to the agility of the cat people and fled back to the village as quickly as possible, and saw that their grandfather was already standing outside the house, his pale hair and beard blown violently by the strange thing that kept spinning overhead.
It's too late! From a distance, the Iron Birds, which felt like they were slow, had actually flown faster than them above the village, and now they had begun to descend downward!
The place where the Iron Bird landed was in front of their house, the open space of the village to dry food and gather. And their grandfather raised his hand vigorously in this direction, not to beckon them to hurry over, but to signal them to hurry away and stay away.
Uncle Li, who had the best archery skills in the village, also waved to them and shouted for them to come here, and Mi Lei did not hesitate to pull her sister and run behind Uncle Li, looking at her grandfather who was standing alone in front of the clearing.
The clever Mi Lei knew that this was a "negotiation", and that her grandfather, who was the head of the village, would negotiate alone with the robbers who came to raid, and the village would hand over some of its savings and even its population, and then the bandits would leave quietly.
But this was only the story she had heard from her grandfather, who was so poor that there were no bandits, and that the centaurs and vampires were said to have not been here for years, and that they had forgotten about these little villages.
It's not the bandits who sit in the flying props, but the vampires who are even more terrifying and notorious than the bandits.
Even Mi Lei knew that vampires were very strong, and even the lowest-level vampire had the strength of a high-level warrior, half a level higher than Uncle Li, the strongest in the village...... Probably.
But she could only hold her sister's hand tightly, purse her lips vigorously, and quietly watch the vampire who was groveling to meet the ground with a pale face.
Grandpa had already told her that if she encountered a similar scene, she should not get close, but secretly watch from a distance. Seeing that both sides were moving, and even someone was killed, no matter who was killed in the village, she should immediately run away with her sister and not make the slightest sound.
Even Uncle Li, who had the best archery skills in the village, had already taken out the bow and arrow hanging on the wall, but he did not aim at the arrow, but only held the bow in his hand, while his mother-in-law and son carried the pot, grain and bacon on their backs, respectively.
Out of Mire's sight, Uncle Lee's mother-in-law was carrying a small bag of salt and a few silver coins. The sauce and pickles in clay pots can only be left at home, waiting until the vampire is gone, if ...... If they're alive and can come back and move the rest of the stuff, the vampires won't be interested in those pots and jars.
I just hope that the vampires don't break the things they don't look down on, and they don't set fires, if they are vampires......
The villagers, who had been hiding in various parts of the village, were horrified to see that out of the dark green iron bird were several people in colorful clothes, whose silhouettes were almost unrecognizable at first glance.
This is very different from the vampires they imagined, but what could they be if they flew out of the mountains and were not the legendary vampires?
Especially the beautiful maid who came out of the iron bird later, it was definitely the vampire maid who served the vampire nobles! There can be no other people in the mountains who need to be served!
At a distance where it was impossible to hear the sound at all, the bearded hair was originally white, but the village chief of the cat people, who was already quite old, nodded and said something to the vampire maid. In order to transmit the signal, the old village chief exaggerated his surprise, then begged hard, and finally shook his head helplessly.
The man in green seemed to have seen through the old village chief's tricks, and looked around at the villagers who were hiding around and watching. Although the old village chief also began to beckon everyone to come over, Uncle Li held down Mi Lei and Mi Xi, who were about to go out, and motioned for them to continue to stay here with their families.
The same is true of the rest of the village, only the head of each family comes out, and the widows and children who do not have to show up do not have to show up.
Women and children, especially girls, do not show their faces, so that outsiders will not have new "ideas". Outsiders need to hire people to work or act as guides, and it is enough for the men to take care of them.
Even if...... Even if outsiders try to kill, they usually only kill men and half-grown boys, and women and children are basically saved.
Fortunately, the vampire who came this time was a woman, and the old village chief did not send a warning signal, so there should be no danger to his life.
The men lowered their eyebrows and walked to the old village chief, and listened to the old village chief convey the meaning of the outsiders, only then did they know that the Linde Mengfei blood clan in the mountains had surrendered to the green-clothed people, and the green-clothed people asked them all to move to the grassland in front of the eastern mountain pass, and the green-clothed people had already negotiated with the lord of the centaur clan to build a new city there.
This is a completely forced relocation and no one is allowed to refuse!
