24 Be merciful
Ji Xiaoduo and Mo Li left Cangyuzong and went to Lu County first.
She was quite concerned about the couple she met on the road before and said that the Lu County Guard was a wolf demon who ate boys and girls every day.
Although there are demons everywhere at this time, I know it, and it's a little uneasy not to take a look.
Even if you can't beat that wolf demon, you can always save a few people, right?
Who knew that they went to Luxian, but they saw ruins and ruins, full of devastation.
In the war zone, this is not strange, no one knows when the fight will start, and the city will be destroyed and killed.
Ji Xiaoduo was a little embarrassed, they walked around, and when they left, they found more than a dozen survivors who had taken refuge here in the nearby mountains.
Ji Xiaoduo claimed to be a doctor who went into the mountains to collect medicine, treated the injured and sick among the refugees, and chatted about Lu County by the way.
"There was indeed a demon general who wanted to eat children, but then one day, suddenly a sword fairy flew over and killed it. β
"Such a big wolf's head flew out, and the sky was full of blood. β
"We were all happy, thinking that the hard days were over. β
"But...... The good times didn't last long, and we didn't relax for two days, and we sent a new guardian to the future. β
"This one doesn't eat children anymore, and he goes door to door to catch women. β
"Rich people can still use money to buy their lives, but small families can ...... I can only accept my fate. β
"Escape, why don't you escape? Everyone who can escape. β
"But if you have no relatives and no reason outside, and there are wars everywhere, where can you go?"
"Then the army came again, saying that we are rebels in Luxian. β
"The county magistrate opened the city overnight and ran away. β
"After two days and two nights, the monsters killed people when they saw them, and the army of the imperial court also killed people when they saw them, and they cut off their heads and took them away. β
"I don't know how many people there are, we didn't dare to go down the mountain again when we ran here. β
......
Ji Xiaoduo sat there and was silent for a long time.
She felt that the sword immortal who killed the wolf demon was probably Pei Yue.
It's just that...... In the end, he is an immortal cultivator of the Hidden World Sect, and he has a little less understanding of the mortal world.
Look at this repeated operation of arresting people door-to-door and buying lives with money, it can only be someone who makes a profit from it.
If a monster wants to eat people, it will eat people, how can there be a reason why if you give money and it won't eat it?
When people eat people, they don't even have money and people, and there is no scum left.
This root is still there, and naturally killing the wolf demon and the tiger demon can't change the situation in Lu County.
When it comes to the real fight, of course the monster is ferocious, is the army...... Probably just trying to kill the good and take the credit.
Ordinary people, how can they live?
Ji Xiaoduo couldn't help but think of Luo Jiayu's words again, in fact, for the people, it is really good that no matter which side wins, it is best to end this war as soon as possible.
As if sensing her emotions, Mo Li sat down beside her and patted her on the back gently.
Ji Xiaoduo looked sideways at him.
Mo Li said: "Isn't my sister happy?
Ji Xiaoduo couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, "Oh, you can still sing." β
"Yes, when I'm not happy, my sister sings me a song. I'll sing it to my sister too. β
"Okay. β
Ji Xiaoduo sang to Mo Li the most was all kinds of lullabies.
What Mo Li learned, naturally, is also a lullaby.
"Sleep peacefully, little darling
How beautiful the blue night sky is
Little stars wink
Sleep peacefully with you......"
Mo Li's voice is a little rough, but it's not suitable for singing such a soft and lyrical song.
But he sang seriously and gently at this time, Ji Xiaoduo couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips slightly, and even really relaxed his whole person, and a sense of sleepiness welled up.
While singing, Mo Li gently grabbed Ji Xiaoduo's head little by little, and let her lean on her shoulder.
"Phew!"
There was a loud bang, and the target a hundred paces away shattered.
Zhao Mingxuan's pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly.
If he used a bow and arrow, this distance was nothing, and he could hit even a little farther away, but the damage of this explosion ......
What's more, he turned his head to look at the person who tested it.
It was an ordinary craftsman in the Hope Workshop, and although he was a strong man, his arm strength was certainly not comparable to that of a martial artist like them.
After firing this shot, it was obvious that he retreated with ease.
The next same ordinary man, reloading, ignition, shooting, "phew".
Same effect.
Zhao Mingxuan couldn't imagine how powerful the whole army would be if it was equipped with this kind of "musket".
Not to mention that if you fill gunpowder with cinnabar and other evil spirits, even demons can fight.
He took a deep breath, grinded his teeth and asked Lu Erniang, "What does she want?"
He knew the woman wasn't dead.
But...... She ran for more than three years and was never heard from.
Every day he was trying to convince himself to give up and forget about her.
And she came to this hand again?
Lu Erniang shook her head, "I haven't seen her, and when I got up that morning, things were placed at my bedside." β
Recipes, drawings, samples, and a "Public Health Handbook for All" with a focus on "post-war epidemic prevention".
Lu Erniang is also literate now, and at a glance, she knows that it is her girl's handwriting.
But she didn't meet her.
Lu Erniang didn't look for it, but just acted according to Ji Xiaoduo's instructions.
The drawings given by Ji Xiaoduo were only a rough indication, and there were many ambiguities, and the craftsmen brainstormed and tried in many ways as before before before to develop this "musket" and notify Zhao Mingxuan.
Lu Erniang thought for a while and said, "I think that the girl is just merciful and can't bear to fight for a long time in the world." β
To make such a big killing weapon is to say that it is compassion.
But Zhao Mingxuan didn't feel wrong.
What is the quickest way to end the war?
It is not possible to assassinate the emperor or the king of Jiyang, the dragons have no leader, which will only breed the ambition of more people.
Only by allowing one side to have overwhelming military strength and be invincible can we quickly and rudely end this war, which has dragged on for a long time.
The most important thing is that she chose him.
Has she actually been paying attention to Shaozhou?
Have you been watching him?
That...... If he wins the world, will she come back?
Zhao Mingxuan was silent for a long time before asking, "How many of these muskets can you make?"
"Ji Niangniang is really a good person. β
Obi said cheerfully.
At this time, she returned to the posture of a girl, with white skin and green skirts, and her eyebrows and eyes were crooked with a smile.
Ji Xiaoduo came to see her, and buried a few spirit stones under her body, she would be moistened by the aura so that she wanted to dance.
Du Qiao didn't answer, and was staring blankly at a small glass house model on the table.
He didn't get married, so he found another good family for his fiancΓ©e, lived in the flower garden by himself, and guarded Obi.
When I came back from the mountains that night, the green peony was almost dying again.
Du Qiao felt that he was already sorry for Ji Xiaoduo and could no longer live up to Ou Bi.
When Ji Xiaoduo disappeared, he also helped find it, and later the legend of Ji Niangniang spread, and he actually thought that it was probably true.
She is the goddess of heaven, who went through a catastrophe in the red dust and returned to heaven.
But I didn't expect that one day when I woke up, I would suddenly see this model.
This is probably the greenhouse that Ji Xiaoduo discussed with him at the beginning.
The production method and formula of glass, Ji Xiaoduo also wrote it out and pressed it under the model.
Du Qiao remembered that day when they were chatting under the tree, and Ji Xiaoduo described the future to him, and his heart suddenly had a little more fighting spirit.
"Let's do it!" he said to Obi.
