Chapter 120 The Dragon King doesn’t eat people?
What does it feel like to fly in the sky?
If someone had asked Wu You this question before, Wu You would have thought that the other person was dreaming. Because his family had such a talented uncle, the Wujia Village was actually living a good life. As the village chief, Wu Ji's family lived an even better life. All the children in the family went to school, even the girls.
The name Wu You shows his parents' expectations of him. They don't expect Wu You to be very capable, as long as he can live a carefree life, because the higher the position, the more he understands the turmoil in the court.
As the patriarch of the Wu family, Wu Ji had read books and history, so he naturally saw that the Great Xia Empire was about to collapse. However, as the head of such a small family, it was too difficult to survive in such a chaotic world. All Wu Ji could do was to prevent his children from getting involved in the court's mess again.
In recent years, not to mention the big families in the north, even in the south there have not been many "unparalleled geniuses". It's nothing more than seeing that the court is about to end, the aristocratic families began to lurk and wait for an opportunity, hoping to wait for a person with destiny to rebuild the court.
Wu You had been loved since childhood because of his good complexion and looked very much like his grandfather's youngest son who was left in the capital. He followed his grandfather to study and learn, so he naturally understood a lot of things, which was why he was able to stand up when his grandfather chose the human sacrifice.
At this moment, Wu You was at a loss. He couldn't help but touch the coldness in his hand. It was the cold scales of Lord Dragon King. It didn't feel like the snake he had caught in the forest before. Instead, it felt like touching the coldest weapon in the world.
In such a dark night, Wu You should not be able to see anything, but when he looked down at the dragon scales he was touching, he saw that the dragon scales reflected colorful light. The ink color was just a concealment. The real dragon scales were so beautiful that they were dazzling, comparable to the most beautiful gems in the world.
I...was I carried up into the air by Lord Dragon King?
The feeling of being in the air, and the sight of the stars in the sky, made Wu You feel that he had no regrets in his life. Born as a human, who else could soar into the sky with the Dragon King like him? So even if he might be eaten later, Wu You was happy.
But it all happened so quickly, it felt like a moment, and he was taken down by Lord Dragon King, landing in a courtyard filled with the fragrance of flowers in the darkness.
Qin Lang disappeared immediately, leaving behind a young man in red in the yard.
The noise immediately caused the people from Wangjia Village who were guarding Qin Lang to light torches and quickly move towards the yard, including Wang Huaer who rushed over after hearing the noise.
Almost in an instant, under the torches, everyone saw a young man in red clothes.
"Is it Wu You?"
One of them recognized the young man as the grandson of the village chief of Wujia Village. His face was unforgettable. It was said that he was very similar to the uncle who stayed in the capital, and he was so handsome that he seemed extraordinary.
“You are…”
Why are you dressed like this?
You know, it is impossible for ordinary people to wear such red, and it is even more impossible for young men to wear it like this, except for newlyweds.
The moment Wang Huaer saw Wu You, she understood his background and walked away from the crowd.
"Are you the sacrifice sent by Wujia Village to the Dragon King?"
Just like Wang Huaer was the bride of the river god, the surrounding villages had to offer human sacrifices when they offered sacrifices to the gods. However, no one expected that the Wujia Village was so powerful. Like the village chief Wang Shan, they directly offered their grandson.
"Yes, I am the offering of the Dragon King. Just now, the Dragon King sent down divine rain in our Wujia Village and then swept me here. He left no words behind, only telling me to follow the Lord of Changes, and that my fate would be determined in a hundred years."
Wu You quickly calmed down and explained the situation in Wujia Village in a few words, which made the people in Wangjia Village happy for him.
"It's raining in Wujia Village, how nice."
"That's great. Now we don't have to worry about food."
Wang Huaer's face turned cold, and the people around her fell silent.
"Silence, don't disturb the Star Lord's sleep."
The villagers of Wangjia Village then remembered that this was the yard of the Star God. They were making so much noise, would they wake up the Star God?
Only then did Wang Huaer look at Wu Youdao.
"I am also a sacrifice to the Lord Dragon King, and I am here to serve the Lord of Changes. Come with me and settle down. Tomorrow I will take you to meet the Lord of Changes."
Wu You naturally obeyed the order, because when he found that all the adults in the yard listened to a child like Wang Huaer, he realized that Wang Huaer had a different status here.
Afterwards, the two of them arrived at a relatively remote room. Wang Huaer told Lord Dragon King about the arrangements he had made for her, and continued.
"You and I will both be the little children serving the Star Lord from now on. The Star Lord has come to the human world to experience tribulations. Our mission is to protect the Immortal Lord and prevent anyone from causing trouble for him. Do you understand?"
Wu You was naturally smart and nodded obediently immediately.
"nature."
The two children, who were not even fifteen years old, were now as mature as adults, understanding their own identities and future destinies.
Some villagers also heard the movement in the yard of the Star Lord, and came over quietly. They asked the people guarding outside, and were relieved after learning that Lord Dragon King had sent another sacrifice. They did not ask any more questions, knowing that Lord Dragon King must care about the Star Lord very much.
Qin Lang had already returned to the house and heard the voice of the system.
[Ding Dong! Congratulations to the host for completing the mission of bringing rain to Wujia Village. The people of Wujia Village are already preparing to build a temple for Dragon King Canglang. Congratulations to the host for completing the mission. Rewards: the special effects vehicle frame [Moon-Grabbing Flying Star] and the [Endless Strength Pill]. Please continue to work hard to complete the mission~]
Oh! Qin Lang likes these two gifts!
Just choose to receive the reward, and then you will see this special effects frame in the dress-up mall.
The special effects frame [Moon-grabbing Flying Stars] is worth 500,000 faith points.
[Grasping the Moon and Flying Stars]: The golden moon-like frame chases the stars and the moon, making rapid progress in a day, like a flying star. It can change its size and shape at will, and move like a shooting star flying to the moon.
"This special effect is amazing! System, you finally stopped giving me empty promises."
Qin Lang was very satisfied with this divine car, and the system was also happy.
[Of course, because the host completed the mission so well! The faith value has skyrocketed to 150,000! The people of Wujia Village have deep faith in Dragon King Canglang and have decided to compile a book about him and spread it far and wide. This is great!]
Compared with the large number of illiterate people in Wangjia Village, it is obvious that there are more educated people in Wujia Village, so it is easier to spread the information.
Qin Lang sighed at the people of Wujia Village, then took a look at the pill.
【Infinite Strength Pill】: Allows one to possess strength beyond the limit, which can be used endlessly.
This thing is quite good. I will give it to the people around me later. By then, there will be more people working on the business. As an immortal who has come down to earth to experience trials and tribulations, he must have some magical skills, right?
Qin Lang couldn't sleep at this moment. He wanted to do something, but when he thought about going out and the people outside would follow him, he stayed in the room.
Qin Lang continued to open the dress-up system mall and searched until he found the suit he wanted.
[A scholar with high spirits]: When a scholar is full of high spirits, he can turn his paintings into gold with splashed ink.
This is an ordinary scholar's set. The key point is that it comes with a brush and paper, which are inexhaustible and just right for writing.
The most important thing is that this scholar suit only has 500 faith points, which is cheap!
Qin Lang changed his clothes with one click, and the frost-colored suit in the daytime turned into a scholar's green. It should have been a low-key scholar's suit, but it was green like bamboo. There was even golden lucky bamboo embroidered on the green suit, making him look like he didn't study for knowledge, but for fame and fortune.
But there is no need to worry about these. Qin Lang took a look at the gold-edged paper that automatically appeared in his hand, and then looked at the white jade inlaid with gold brush in his right hand. Wow, with this scholar's outfit, he will definitely become a high-ranking official.
After Qin Lang finished complaining, he came to the table, spread his paper on the table, and then drew the shape of a millstone. He then separated every detail of the millstone, and soon a millstone tool appeared on the drawing paper.
Recently, Qin Lang has searched his memory and observed the situation in Wangjia Village, and found that people nowadays still eat wheat rice. People in the south eat millet, which is chestnut rice, and beans are also added. So don’t even think about the taste. Only the nobles can afford to eat peeled rice.
Because it is not easy to peel wheat, ordinary people simply make wheat rice with soybeans or other beans, which naturally does not taste very good.
No one in Daxia had officially discovered flour yet, and peeling wheat was difficult, making it a tough job.
Qin Lang spent a long time drawing the millstone. This millstone can not only grind flour, but also grind beans. After thinking about it, he wrote down the process of making noodles and the techniques of grinding soy milk, tofu and bean curd on it.
The food and drink of ordinary people are simple to begin with, and meat is simply cooked from raw. Enjoyment is the business of the nobles. Qin Lang hopes that with this millstone, the food that the people eat will be better.
Besides, wheat can be ground into flour and made into other things to make people feel fuller.
After doing all this, Qin Lang felt a little bored. He should have someone send some books over tomorrow, but Wangjia Village was very poor, so he was afraid there wouldn't be many books.
After the bored Qin Lang finished, he lay down on the bed to rest. His bed was made of silk bedding that was changed every day and was the best thing in Wangjia Village.
Qin Lang, who had been complaining about the system's empty promises, regretted taking the sleep-deprivation pill. After taking it, he really didn't want to sleep. Without a mobile phone or a computer, the feeling of staring blankly was really not good, so he opened the dress-up mall to continue looking for fun things.
By the early morning of the next day, the entire Wangjia Village had already known that the Dragon King had brought rain to Wujia Village. In the early morning, people from Wujia Village even came to Wangjia Village to tell the village chief Wang Shan the good news.
"The Dragon King has indeed sent down divine rain. It rained for two hours last night. This morning, I hurried over in a carriage. Our village chief asked me to tell you that a Dragon King Temple is already being built in the village. Please rest assured. Furthermore, the Dragon King has accepted the boy we offered as a sacrifice and has taken him away."
The person who said this was from Wujia Village. He was very happy at the moment because all his old illnesses were cured, almost like he had been rejuvenated overnight. The crops of the people in Wujia Village were also good, and everyone was very happy.
Wang Shan, the village chief of Wangjia Village, stroked his beard and said.
"Come with me to the Star Lord. Last night, the Dragon King sent the boy who was being offered sacrifices in your village to the Star Lord's courtyard. From now on, he will stay by the Star Lord's side to serve him."
Wang Shan’s words made the villager extremely surprised and very happy.
"Wu You is still alive? Lord Dragon King didn't eat people?"
Last night, the Dragon King swept someone away. Everyone was actually very upset. We were happy it was raining, but a child’s life was lost just like that. Everyone was actually a little sad.
Wang Shan glared at the man and warned him.
"Lord Dragon King is a true god, not an evil god that eats people. The boy you send in the future will probably be very lucky. Let's go..."
