Chapter 230 The Hunting Time Begins
The space spirit stretched its neck as long as possible, and then began to dance the phoenix like a lion, shocking the people watching below.
Hai Lan felt that the time was almost up, so she pinched her nose and said, "Look, the goddess is the reincarnation of the phoenix!"
After he shouted this, he quietly slipped away.
The villagers were immediately moved and knelt down and kowtowed.
"The phoenix appears, the goddess descends..."
Su Zhen below was so excited that her eyes were filled with tears. She was convinced that she was a goddess.
The space spirit at this moment asked: "And then? Will this phoenix keep dancing?"
Su Nuan laughed and said, "Burn it."
The space spirit was startled, "Burned...burned?"
Su Nuan responded, "Of course. Do you really want her to establish her reputation as a goddess?"
The space spirit immediately understood, and it blinked, with a strange light in its eyes.
Su Zhen, who was standing below, kowtowed to Phoenix and said loudly, "This goddess will definitely not let Master Phoenix down."
"We will definitely ensure that the people live a good life with ample food and clothing."
As soon as she finished speaking, black gas began to emerge from the Phoenix's body, and soon it was burned by a flame, leaving only black ash scattered. Those who were touched by the black ash immediately screamed.
“Ah… It’s so itchy…”
"It's so itchy... it's so itchy..."
"A monster... not a phoenix..."
"Monster...witch..."
The scene was in chaos, and the people's fear was as deep as their respect.
Su Zhen was confused. How could this happen?
She got up and ran to the water source. She found that the hemp rope had not yet entered the stone, but the hole she dug yesterday was gone.
She was so anxious that she tried to pick it out with her hands, but her nails split and she didn't remove any of it.
"How could this happen? I clearly drilled a hole yesterday and water came out, so why isn't there even a crack in the stone today?"
It would have been fine if she didn't say anything, but as soon as she spoke, people would catch her and talk nonsense.
An old lady scratched her face and asked, "Didn't you say there was water? Where is the water? Wash my face quickly."
Now the villagers are all itchy, and when they hear the word "water", they want to find water to wash.
They surrounded Su Zhen frantically and started shouting at each other.
"Where's the water? Where's the water?"
"Come on, didn't you find water?"
"No, she is not a goddess."
"The Phoenix is warning us that she is not a goddess."
"Yes...it's the witch!"
Su Zhen looked at the villagers in horror. They looked like they wanted to eat people.
Su Liren, who was once a minister, shouted, "Go to the spring and wash, and the itching will go away."
The villagers were so itchy that they had no choice but to abandon Su Zhen and run back to the old spring.
Su Liren immediately pulled Su Zhen down the mountain and said, "Hurry up, let's get out of here."
"Just wait until we have established a firm foothold in the capital and leave these untouchables alone."
Su Zhen burst into tears, and all her pride was shattered into pieces.
Su Nuan and Hai Lan burst into laughter. They were so happy. The goddess turned into a witch. This matter would sooner or later spread to the capital, and then it might pour a bucket of cold water on their glory.
Thinking about it now, I feel very relieved and relaxed all over.
The space spirit said, "I just saw that ship coming from a high place."
Su Nuan was stunned. "Is it the ship that passed by our village? No, I have to leave before I get recognized."
She is not afraid of trouble, but she despises trouble. If she is recognized, she will definitely be interrogated, and her vulture may even be killed.
She found Su Xia and said, "Little sister, I'm going back. I've put some small change in the cellar. You can use it as you see fit."
Su Xia nodded reluctantly, "Okay, take care, sister."
Su Nuan hugged Su Xia and patted her back. "Take good care of yourself. When A Da comes back, don't let him go out. Let's take care of the salt fields together. If you have nothing to do, dry some seafood. I'll come get it next time."
Su Xia nodded, "Okay, I'll remember it."
Su Nuan called Feixue, and it flew into the air under Su Xia's envious eyes.
It seemed that everyone on the boat had gotten off, and Su Nuan got on the boat on a whim.
She lit a piece of incense and threw it into the cabin, then waited for a quarter of an hour before going in.
The sailors in the cabin were chained to the oars, their eyes were dull and they were not affected by the incense at all.
Su Nuan examined their bodies and found that these people were controlled by another kind of drug. They could only be laborers who knew how to eat and drink in their lives, and it was impossible for them to become normal people.
"Tsk tsk, the people of the Northern Snow Country are truly cruel."
The space spirit said, "It was a slave society back then. Slaves didn't have any human rights. They were just tools, no different from livestock. In many places, people were even used for sacrifice."
Su Nuan nodded. She knew about this, but she just felt that these people were too pitiful.
She asked, "Can we destroy this boat?"
The Space Spirit asked back, "Why destroy it? Just take it away."
Su Nuan shook her head. "What should we do with these people? Get them to shore?"
"If those people can't leave here, Xiao Xia will also be in danger."
The Space Spirit said, "Then kill them all. They are not good people anyway."
"They didn't attack your village because they saw weapons and people who could fight there. The people in this fishing village can't fight, so they're probably running around in the village right now."
Su Nuan's heart tightened, and she immediately went to the deck. This time she did not fly, but ran back to the village.
Those people really did act recklessly in the village. The captain grabbed a pretty young wife and touched her without restraint.
The young wife pushed the captain away in shame and anger, and hit her head against the tree next to her. Fortunately, she was pulled away and only fainted.
The captain shouted angrily, "Kill all the men, and take the women aboard the boats and carry off all the salt!"
It turns out that their target is salt. Is there also a shortage of salt in the Northern Snow Country?
When the soldiers heard the captain's words, they immediately cheered and ran around like mad buffaloes.
Su Nuan was furious. He covered his face with a mask and killed everyone he saw with a bone knife in his hand.
This first batch of hunting was done by taking advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness, and more than a dozen were killed. There were still more than thirty people scattered around, and it was difficult to kill them if they were not concentrated.
The captain also noticed something was wrong, drew his knife and shouted, "Be careful, assemble."
The soldiers received the order to assemble and they immediately gathered around the captain.
Su Nuan took out a bag of medicine powder and shook it all out. The space spirit used the large leaves of a cattail leaf fan to help fan the air.
Its round head rests on Su Nuan's head, giving people the illusion that Su Nuan has two heads.
The captain's eyes were blinded by the powder. His vision was blurred and he saw a two-headed monster rushing towards him. He immediately wet his pants.
"A monster..."
He started running, heading towards the seaside.
When the other soldiers saw their leader running away, they also ran after him, shouting loudly.
"There's a monster..."
"Witch..."
"Demon man..."
"So many monsters..."
Su Nuan, “…”
She was depressed. She shouldn't be so scary if she covered her face, right?
However, these soldiers all ran to the seaside, which made it easier for the second hunt!
