Xiao Ruyu made a gesture to silence the two, indicating them to keep quiet.

Doctor Yang looked closely and saw a black puppy curled up under the firewood.

Its leg seemed to be injured, and it stared at Xiao Ruyu vigilantly, making a low "whimpering" sound from its mouth.

[Dog, can you understand what I say? 】

Xiao Ruyu blinked at the little black dog and spoke softly.

Eleven was about to ask.

"Little princess, how can a dog understand human language?"

The next second, the little black dog stuck out its tongue and licked Xiao Ruyu's hand.

This scene shocked the two of them. When they looked closely, they saw a light blue spiritual power in Xiao Ruyu's hand.

Like a lace, it continuously flows into the little black dog's head.

"Who are you?"

The little black dog's voice sounded in Xiao Ruyu's mind.

[Are you the guard dog of this house? ]

"Um."

The little black dog was very indifferent. If it hadn't felt very comfortable with the spiritual power coming from its head, it would have been scared away by now.

It lowered its head and licked the wound carefully. There was a large patch of blood and flesh on its leg.

[Then why didn’t you guard the door and were locked here? And why do you have this wound…]

Xiao Ruyu approached cautiously and wanted to apply the elixir on its legs.

But as soon as she got closer, the little black dog immediately became alert and dragged its injured leg towards her and hissed.

【Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person. 】

Despite its objections, Xiao Ruyu forcibly applied the elixir on its legs.

"People are all bad people! Stay away from me!"

The little black dog grinned, and was stunned by the cool feeling on its legs.

Looking down, the injured area was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Are you saving me?"

The little black dog questioned aloud.

Seeing Xiao Ruyu nod, it seemed to sigh and lay on the ground sobbing.

"I was thrown in here after being beaten by the bad guys."

"By the way, you looked familiar to me just now. You must be the ones standing at the door just now."

"The one who started the trouble is the bad guy who hurt me."

Xiao Ruyu captured some useful information and asked immediately.

Why do you say he is a bad guy?

"When you guys were still here, I went out of the dog hole to look for food, and I heard that person discussing something with someone."

"I heard him say that all we need to do is to incite the villagers and soldiers to resist."

So that's how it is!

Xiao Ruyu immediately told Doctor Yang the news.

[Master, the little black dog told me that the person who was making trouble was specially arranged by someone! ]

"Did someone arrange this specifically?" Doctor Yang stroked his forehead and thought hard.

"Is there someone behind the scenes deliberately inciting this matter to ferment?"

Just as he was speculating, there was a rattling sound from the iron chain at the door.

Someone is coming in!

Xiao Ruyu and Eleven looked at each other and hid behind him vigilantly.

When the little black dog saw the visitor's face clearly, it suddenly barked at him wildly.

"Woof! Woof! Woof!"

"That's the bad guy."

Xiao Ruyu moved his gaze to the man's face. He had no special features in his appearance, which was why others would not notice him.

[Master, this is the person who is causing the trouble! ]

The visitor saw the little black dog barking non-stop and was worried that it would be discovered, so he kicked it.

"What are you yelling about, you beast?"

Before Xiao Ruyu could stop it, the little black dog fell to the ground, blood slowly flowing from the corner of its mouth.

She clenched her fists, and there was a hint of frost in her eyes.

【Eleven, get rid of him. 】

Without saying a word, the man pulled out a shiny knife from his back.

"You guys! Since you've provoked us! Don't even think about leaving!"

After saying that, he rushed towards the nearest Doctor Yang with a knife.

Doctor Yang exchanged glances with Eleven, and he stepped back to avoid the knife.

The man missed his target and stumbled, almost falling to the ground.

Eleven saw the opportunity, went up and kicked him in the back, knocking him to the ground.

Xiao Ruyu rushed over with small steps and kicked him.

"You'll be allowed to bully the little black dog!"

Doctor Yang helped Eleven to push the man to the ground.

While struggling, a familiar pattern came into Xiao Ruyu's eyes.

This is!

She stared at the strange pattern on the man's neck and her heart skipped a beat.

Before he had time to think about it, the man tried to break free and escape.

Eleven was also getting a little impatient and pulled out a knife from his pocket.

The cold touch on his neck made the man tremble instantly.

“Who the hell are you!”

He had a look of horror in his eyes and dared not move.

"It doesn't matter who it is. What matters is that you can't leave today."

As Doctor Yang spoke, he reused the ropes that had been used to tie up several people.

The sound of roosters crowing was heard outside the house, and the first rays of sunlight came in.

[Oh no, it’s dawn, they are going to lead the locusts eastward! ]

Xiao Ruyu secretly passed a message to the two of them.

Without further ado, Doctor Yang immediately instructed Eleven to tie the man up.

"Let's go first. We'll interrogate this man when we come back."

The man was tied up and thrown into the woodshed. Before leaving, Xiao Ruyu picked up the little black dog.

After going out, she poured her spiritual power into it and then let it go.

The little black dog limped away and disappeared into the grass.

…

Farmland outside the city.

When Xiao Ruyu arrived, the villagers were already in chaos.

Looking closely, the sky was shrouded in darkness, and a huge haze hung in the sky.

Countless locusts came sweeping in like a violent storm, each one was nearly two inches long.

"It's a man-eating locust! Don't come near, little princess!"

Doctor Yang cried out in shock and pulled Xiao Ruyu into the house to hide.

[This locust is so huge and terrifying! ]

Xiao Ruyu was still frightened and patted his chest to calm himself down.

Wherever the locusts went, the food disappeared instantly, leaving only bare land.

Not a blade of grass grows!

When the villagers saw that the food they had worked so hard to store was eaten up, they burst into tears.

The locusts are getting closer and closer. If this continues, the losses will be heavy!

【Master, what should we do! 】

Xiao Ruyu panicked and paced back and forth thinking of a solution.

Doctor Yang scratched his head and thought of a solution.

Locusts, what are the natural enemies of locusts?

Got it!

He suddenly remembered the day he returned to the palace, when a strange phenomenon occurred in the sky and hundreds of birds were singing!

"Little princess, you were the one who summoned the hundreds of birds for the ancestor worship that day, right?"

Doctor Yang calmed himself down and looked at Xiao Ruyu.

Xiao Ruyu was stunned and nodded, not understanding why he suddenly asked about this.

She glanced at the locusts getting closer and closer outside, and suddenly she reacted.

[Master, you want me to summon hundreds of birds to eat these locusts! ]

Seeing Doctor Yang nod, Xiao Ruyu immediately sat down cross-legged.

She held her breath and concentrated all her spiritual power into her palms.

A strong spiritual power rushed straight into the sky, and a light green light spread in the air.

In less than a moment, a chirping sound was heard in the sky.

【Success! 】

Xiao Ruyu was secretly happy, but her hands did not stop moving at all.

When the birds arrived, they spotted the locusts and rushed straight towards them.

As more and more birds appeared, her spiritual power became weaker.

After a stick of incense, Xiao Ruyu's eyes went dark and he fell to the ground.

"Little Princess!"
