Chapter 223 Crocodile

Baby Ruoxi was drowsy and didn't want to care about what was happening in the lake.

However, he suddenly became energetic.

"God? I've seen one before. In this small lake, there can be... Little Heart. Looks like it depends on you!" Ruoxi was just muttering disdainfully when she saw some ripples in the lake.

"Huh?" Ci Xin also noticed it and turned to look over.

"Can Tie Tie swim?" Ci Xin turned to look at the little cat squatting on Xiao Yue's shoulder and asked.

He raised his hands and patted himself. He didn't want to get wet.

"Hulu Hulu!"

Tie Tie opened his mouth and nodded. Then, he jumped and rushed into the lake.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Huge waves suddenly appeared in the water.

"Ahhh, a water monster!"

"The gods are angry!"

"I told you, this is still a water monster, not a god. It's the wealthy Gong who is fooling us!"

The people fled far away in panic.

"What's going on?" Xiao Yin turned around and asked.

"Your Majesty, even if the wealthy Gong asked us to go in, we would not be willing. There is a monster in the water. The wealthy Gong said it was his god, but we know it is a monster!"

Bang! "

At the same time, with a muffled sound, Tietie's huge body rushed out of the water and fell back down.

In the water, a long tail and hard armor were revealed.

"Piranha!" Baby Ruoxi frowned: "The fish in Xiyue have thick skin, eat meat and people, how could they be here!"

"Ci Xin, let's fight quickly, Tietie is not in the water after all, I see, not just that one, there are several around." Xiao Yin was worried about the iron-eating beast.

The iron-eating beast had a high level of cultivation, and it was Xiao Xier's pet. He was reluctant to be hurt by the ferocious piranha in the water.

"Roar!"

With a loud roar, Tietie's body flew quickly into the air, and then he clenched his fist into a huge fist and punched down hard.

"Ahhh~"

With a series of roars, the water was filled with bright red blood.

The blood spread with the ripples of the water, and countless huge crocodiles swam quickly around.

"Who dares to go to Chengyang Lake!" In the distance, a black team came quickly, and the various weapons in those people's hands flashed dazzlingly in the sun. Those people

rushed over, without saying a word, and killed anyone they saw, regardless of whether they were men or women, adults or children.

Xiao Yin didn't need to give more instructions, he just moved his feet and stepped back two steps.

On one side, Eunuch Gao and Nanny Jin had already protected the emperor and the princess behind them.

How could these assassins be a match for Eunuch Gao and Nanny Jin? Even Bai Yu came back from the water, with the iron-eating beast Tietie squatting on his shoulder. One man, one iron-eating beast.

One sword, one claw.

The long sword swept across, and the palm wind swung.

In just a few moves, all the black-clothed assassins fell into the lake.

"Who dares to act wild here!" A shout was heard, and then a young man in a blue dress came quickly.

The people retreated one after another, lowering their heads, as if they were afraid of being recognized by this man.

"Young Master." The angry people on the ground pointed at Ci Xin: "He..."

"Not dead yet?" Ci Xin slapped the man with her backhand, and slapped him into the lake.

"You, who are you, so presumptuous?" The young man looked at Ci Xin, frowning, and said, "From the Great Wei?"

"You from the Gong family?" Ci Xin asked the young man in front of him.

"You know I'm from the Gong family, but you're still so presumptuous and killed my men!" The third son of the Gong family roared.

"Let me ask you, who is this Beiling?" Ci Xin walked forward and asked.

"Beiling, of course, is the Emperor of Beiling... Now, it's the Emperor of the Great Wei. You, you are the Emperor of the Great Wei?" Looking at Xiao Yin, and then seeing him holding the baby, the third son of the Gong family immediately understood, and he immediately said, "Even if you are the emperor, you should be more reasonable!"

"Bang!"

Ci Xin punched him.

"Talk about reason? There are so many man-eating crocodiles in this lake, and you talk about reason?"

"These are all top-grade, excellent medicinal materials..." He continued as the third son of the Gong family fell to the ground.

"Top-grade medicinal materials? But I've never seen you use them on the people. You gave them all to Xiyue, right? The piranhas from Xiyue are raised in this lake, and there are still people all around. Humph!" Ci Xin said, and kicked over again.

The third son of the Gong family was kicked and flew out again, almost falling into the pond. He quickly rolled over several times before he got up.

"If the water level is higher, these beasts will probably crawl out and go to the village to eat people!" Ci Xin said.

He himself was originally a thousand-year-old dragon in the water.

He was even more angry when he encountered such a cold-blooded man-eating crocodile beast that was actually domesticated next to the people.

"So, when Shuisheng from our family fell into the water and died, it was either eaten by a water monster or this thing?"

"Didn't they say that this lake is full of monsters? How come they were domesticated by the Gong family?"

"The gods said that there would be sacrifices every year, and the people who died were all favored by the gods and sacrificed, but it turned out that they were domesticated by the Gong family?"

The people were talking about it, which made Dongju shake her head helplessly.

"I said, are you stupid? Whatever the Gong family said is what it is. In the end, they asked you to hand over boys and girls every year. Do you do the same?" Dongju said.

"That was said before, but later, the number of people living near the lake decreased, and the custom disappeared." The people said one after another.

"How many people are there in your village now?" asked Aunt Jin.

"One hundred and twenty-five people." Li Zheng quickly answered.

"One hundred and twenty-five people in the whole village?"

"Yes, in the early years, there were people who drowned in the flood, fell into the lake while walking and were eaten by water monsters, and some died of starvation. After the flood, our crops were gone, and we didn't know what to eat, so we could only wait to die!"

"Go to the county town, call the soldiers over, and catch all the piranhas in the lake." Xiao Yin ordered.

"These fish can be used as medicine to treat colds and coughs, and can also be eaten by the people to strengthen their bodies. Uncle, don't waste them!" Baby Ruoxi looked at her uncle and said "babbling".

"Xi'er, be good, uncle knows, uncle will handle it properly, Xi'er, do you want to eat this piranha? Or, drink some fish soup?" Xiao Yin asked.

Baby Ruoxi smacked her lips and said, "It's not impossible. Piranha fish soup is delicious and nourishing!"

"Hahaha, it seems that the little princess is very knowledgeable!" Dongju said with a smile.

"Pah!"

Nanny Jin pinched her head and said, "The little princess has been very smart since she was a child, more powerful than others. Besides, even if she is a normal child, she will know how to communicate with adults and understand what adults say after she is five or six months old."
