Chapter 557 Greedy Life



"Erdan, why did you kick me?" The sleepy man complained and pushed the person next to him.

The man next to me pushed away the hand that was stretched out to me and cursed: "Who kicked you? I was sleeping soundly, why did you shake me?"

The shaking became more severe.

Li Zheng was the first to run out of the tent. Looking at the shaking earth and the tents bobbing up and down like boats on the river, his face suddenly changed and he shouted, "The earth is shaking! The earth is shaking!"

The old man screamed, fell to his knees, put his hands on the wet ground, and cried, "The earthquake, the earthquake really happened!"

Countless people were awakened, and soon the tents were filled with the screams of women and the cries of children.

The men jumped up, feeling the ground shaking, their faces pale.

What the prince said turned out to be true!

"Oh no, town!" Someone screamed and tried to run towards Jinli Town, but was held back by the people around him.

The person being held back was extremely anxious and yelled, "Let me go! My brother is back!"

"Are you going to die? The vibration is coming from the direction of our town. The town is not as empty as here, it is full of houses and trees. You will be crushed to death if you go back!"

The two of them pulled each other, and fell to the ground as the ground shook even more violently.

The children's cries of fear became louder, and even many women started crying.

Even though they were in the vast wilderness, the uncontrollable shaking of the earth and sky still made them feel deeply terrified.

In the face of natural disasters, humans are always as small as ants and insignificant.

Another town that felt the ground shaking was Wuji Town.

Yu Jin almost closed his eyes instantly, jumped up, and walked quickly out of the house.

The shaking seemed more obvious in the yard, and the branches and leaves of the trees could be seen swaying violently.

Long Dan walked up to Yu Jin and asked in a panic, "Master, is there an earthquake?"

Yu Jin nodded slightly and looked towards the direction of Jinli Town.

"Erniu is truly an amazing person." Long Dan sighed, thought for a moment, then ran to the kitchen, dug out some meat bones and placed them in front of Erniu.

"Erniu, eat quickly, this is a reward for you."

Erniu took one look at the meat and bones and bared his teeth in disdain.

"This dog even refuses meat and bones." Long Dan rolled his eyes, turned around and hugged Erniu's neck again, stroking his fur affectionately, "Erniu, tell me quickly, how did you know that an earthquake would happen in Jinli Town?"

Erniu: "Woof!"

Long Dan touched his nose and stood up.

What a pity I forgot that Erniu can’t speak human language.

As the shaking continued, Minister Zhao and others realized what was happening and ran out.

When we got outside, the shaking under our feet became more and more obvious.

Minister Zhao looked pale and looked at Yu Jin with a complicated expression: "My Lord, there is an earthquake!"

"Yeah." Yu Jianping nodded calmly.

After a while, another person came running over with a complicated expression: "My Lord, there's an earthquake!"

"Um."

Another person came running over: "My Lord, there is an earthquake!"

"Um."

Long Dan listened and looked up at the sky silently.

Have these people discussed this before? Everyone has to say something when they see the prince.

The last person to push the door open was the prince.

Rubbing his sleepy eyes, the prince muttered, "What's all the noise outside? It's making it impossible for me to sleep—"

The shaking under his feet woke him up immediately. His first reaction was to quickly lie on the ground and hold his head with his hands: "The earth is shaking!"

There was a moment of silence, with only the sound of swaying branches.

The prince didn't notice any movement for a long time. He looked up and received countless strange looks.

What's going on?

The prince got up and looked around in confusion.

There was still some vibration under my feet, but standing steadily seemed to be no problem.

His reaction just now——

The prince's face turned red, and he quickly walked to Yu Jin's side, saying aggrievedly: "Seventh brother, why didn't you ask someone to call me when the earthquake happened?"

Yu Jin put his hands behind his back and said calmly, "It's okay here, second brother can sleep a little longer."

The prince shook his head repeatedly: "The earth is shaking, who can sleep?"

What if he falls asleep and everyone else runs away?

The prince thought in a very simple way.

"My Lord, in Kinki Town——"

Yu Jin looked at Minister Zhao and said calmly, "The earthquake probably came from there, as it caused the severe danger to Erniu."

Minister Zhao fell silent for a moment.

Even Wuji Town felt such a significant tremor, so Jinli Town was probably devastated.

The prince stared at Erniu with burning eyes: "Seventh brother, Erniu is truly amazing."

If only he had a dog that could predict earthquakes, then he would never be afraid of earthquakes again.

Feeling the prince's eager gaze, Erniu bared his teeth vigilantly.

The way this person looks at it is so strange, it always wants to take a bite...

The prince moved closer to Yu Jin.

Ahem, this dog is still unfamiliar with him, so I'll try feeding it a few more meat and bones later.

"Let's go check out the place where the people of Jinli Town were resettled first."

The prince became nervous: "Seventh brother, is it dangerous there?"

Yu Jin smiled and said, "No, there's nothing that can collapse in the wilderness."

The prince glanced at the dark sky and shook his head: "I caught a cold at night and I'm still dizzy, so I won't go with my seventh brother."

"Then second brother just take a good rest." Yu Jin never had any hope for the prince, so it was just right not to cause trouble at this time.

The prince glanced at Erniu and asked tentatively, "Seventh brother, can you keep Erniu?"

"Hmm?" Yu Jin raised his eyebrows.

The prince smiled and said, "If there is any disturbance here, Erniu can still inform you."

Yu Jin thought about it and felt that it made some sense, so he nodded.

Minister Zhao and others naturally had to go with Yu Jin, and in a blink of an eye the yard became empty.

The officials who stayed behind could not come forward without the prince's order, and could only wait for orders from a distance.

The prince certainly would not say a word to those people, and told his personal servant: "Go to the kitchen and bring a basin of meat and bones."

After getting the meat and bones, the prince looked at Erniu for a while and smiled ingratiatingly: "Erniu, do you want to eat meat?"

Erniu looked at the prince with disdain, then turned and left.

"Hey——" The prince opened his mouth and tried to stop Erniu.

Erniu turned around, bared his teeth and barked at the prince in a crisp and clear voice, then walked away wagging his tail.

The prince was afraid, but his eyes became more eager.

If the dog becomes Erniu's master, he will listen to him and look fierce towards others.

Just thinking about it makes me happy.

When Yu Jin and his men arrived at the place where the people of Jinli Town were staying, the place was already filled with deafening cries.

Li Zheng staggered over, and Pu Tong knelt down in front of Yu Jian: "I kowtow to the prince. Your great kindness and virtue will be remembered forever by the people of Jinli Town--"

Yu Jin helped Li Zheng up and asked, "What's going on here? Is anyone injured?"

Although this place is open, it is closer to Nishikigawa Town, and it is possible to get hurt by falling or being stepped on in the chaos.

"Everything is fine, everything is fine." Li Zheng cried, "After the ground stopped shaking, I sent a few people with good legs back to the town to take a look. The whole town has become a ruin..."
