Ye Ningchuan said, "Because when I awakened to become a [Life Master], my biological mother had died and only my father was still alive. One life and one death, green represents vitality, and yellow represents death. So I have two abilities. One is to fuse lives, connecting other people's lives with my own; the other is... to save lives, which means I can bring the dead back to life. If someone dies within an hour, I can bring the deceased back to life."
Her voice was so low that she sounded like she was talking to herself.
After saying this, Ye Ningchuan looked up and asked curiously, "What about you? Are you also an awakener? You look very big..."
Luo Mingyue said: "I am an immortal cultivator."
Ye Ningchuan exclaimed: "You are really powerful after awakening. Not only can you become so big, but you can also create water out of thin air. In comparison, I am relatively weak after awakening to become a [Life Master]..."
Luo Mingyue asked: "Are the people whose lives are merged with yours equivalent to your puppets?"
Ye Ningchuan thought for a moment and said, "No, the puppets have lost their minds. Although the people who have merged their lives with me will obey my orders, they have their own thoughts... It's just that when they are hungry, they will be dull and their thoughts will be slow. Once they are full, they will return to normal."
At this point, Ye Ningchuan lowered his head and said, "In a sense, they are indeed like puppets, because they are tied to me throughout their lives."
"If their lives are in danger, they will do their best to protect me, because as long as I don't die, they can survive."
Although Ye Ningchuan is an awakener, she is only sixteen years old and has little experience in interpersonal communication. She does not seem to understand the principle of "talking to someone you have just met before you get to know him well" and took the initiative to say, "If you want to get rid of the life-melting state, there are two ways. One is to kill me and they will all die."
"Another way is that all the people who have merged their lives with me will hate me to death. They must hate me from the bottom of their hearts to kill me. In this way, after I die, they will not die, but will be free. However, from now on, they will lose the ability to revive and only have one last life."
But in fact, the second method is difficult to achieve.
Because this method requires [everyone] to have [heartfelt hatred] towards Ye Ningchuan.
This is almost impossible, because there will always be people in this world who think that melting one's life is a good thing and that they can become immortal.
Luo Mingyue said: "Since they are all under your jurisdiction, it is convenient for management... Tianliu Village is under my protection, and you refugees are not allowed to sneak into the village without permission."
Ye Ningchuan pursed her lips and nodded, "I know, I'm very grateful that you're willing to give us a meal today."
In fact, Ye Ningchuan also had some reservations. She felt that Luo Mingyue was very powerful, so she deliberately revealed her abilities and weaknesses in order to lower Luo Mingyue's vigilance. Because she was not familiar with Luo Mingyue, she was worried that Luo Mingyue would hurt her, so she had to be on guard against others, so she concealed the most crucial information.
Ye Ningchuan's power is far from that simple. In addition, the fact that "she must listen to her father" is also half true and half false.
Moreover, Ye Ningchuan didn't expect anyone to take in these refugees. After all, it was not easy for anyone to survive now. There were too many refugees, and eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping were all problems.
However, Ye Ningchuan's gratitude at this moment was genuine. "Thank you for your hospitality today. After we rest for a while, I will take them away."
Luo Mingyue said: "If you are willing, I can provide you with three meals a day and drinking water, and some cloth, but you cannot enter Tianliu Village and disrupt their lives... If you accept this condition, you can stay, build a house here, and settle down temporarily."
Admittedly, Luo Mingyue has a lot of house models, but she has to find something for the refugees to do. Otherwise, if the refugees are well fed and well-fed, and have no worries about food and shelter, they will be prone to being idle and causing trouble, making it difficult to manage them, so they must be kept busy.
Hearing this, Ye Ningchuan's eyes were filled with disbelief, "You will provide us with three meals a day?"
"right."
Ye Ningchuan asked again: "Does every meal include porridge?"
Luo Mingyue nodded, "Hmm...you like porridge? Then I'll give it to you every meal."
Ye Ningchuan's eyes were red, and she asked: "Then what do you need me to pay?"
Luo Mingyue originally wanted to say that she didn't need anything and that she was just keeping them for fun.
But on second thought, if someone was nice to me for no reason and without asking for anything in return, I would definitely not believe it.
So she said, "You need to thank me from the bottom of your heart. When my statue is completed, you can go and bow to it to express your gratitude."
Ye Ningchuan was stunned. "Is it that simple?"
Luo Mingyue smiled and said, "It's not that simple. What I need is a devout believer, not just a verbal believer... We just met, don't be in a hurry, I will give you enough time, as long as you always treat me sincerely, I will always support you."
Ye Ningchuan: "…"
Is there such a good thing?
She felt like she was dreaming today. Not only did she drink porridge, she was also caught in the rain, and there was also a huge [Cultivator] who said he would support them...
Could this be a dream?
Ye Ningchuan pinched himself secretly, it hurt, which meant that all this was real.
Luo Mingyue reminded again: "Remember my request, refugees are not allowed to enter the village on their own initiative, but if it is the villagers who invite them, then it is another matter."
Ye Ningchuan nodded quickly, "Okay, I'll remember that."
Luo Mingyue added: "Also, you have no place to live now, you can build a house outside the village, but I only protect Tianliu Village. If you are in danger, you must run to this range so that I can see you."
As he spoke, Luo Mingyue moved his palm and brought Ye Ningchuan to the red mist. He drew a line on the ground and said, "Only within the line is the area under my protection."
The place where the red fog is located is the place that Luo Mingyue has not yet unlocked. There are a lot of refugees. Some of the refugees just ran to the red fog area with their porridge bowls, and Luo Mingyue could not see them anymore.
In addition, there is limited space at the entrance of Tianliu Village. Although it can provide space for refugees to line up for meals, it is not enough for all refugees to build houses and live here. There will always be people living in the area where the red fog is located, but this is not a big deal. Anyway, as long as Ye Ningchuan is kept alive, these refugees will not die.
Ye Ningchuan nodded in response.
Luo Mingyue put her on the ground.
Many refugees gathered around, some with concerned looks, "Ningchuan, when will you be able to fly?"
Some of them were full of admiration, "Sister, you are so awesome, can you take me flying with you next time?"
Others looked up at the sky in confusion, "Ningchuan, can you communicate with God?"
Ye Ningchuan said patiently: "There is a bright moon fairy in the sky. She can provide us with food in the future. I..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the excited refugees:
"is this real?"
"It has been so difficult along the way. Ye Ningchuan, thank you. Without you, I would not have been able to make it this far."
The vast majority of refugees did not know that they had been saved by Ye Ningchuan. When they were about to starve to death on the road, Ye Ningchuan quietly melted their lives. After the melting of their lives, the villagers would involuntarily develop a good impression of Ye Ningchuan, but they were not aware that they had "immortal bodies", and Ye Ningchuan did not take the initiative to tell them.
Only a few refugees knew that they had been saved by Ye Ningchuan, but their memories were a little vague. They only knew that Ye Ningchuan was their savior, but they had no idea how they were saved.
Except for Ye Renyi's family, all the refugees have a very good impression of Ye Ningchuan and subconsciously ignore the unusually colored pupils of Ye Ningchuan.
On the other side, Liu Dashi heard Luo Mingyue's conversation with Ye Ningchuan in the sky, and told the villagers, "The refugees may build houses outside our village."
"It doesn't matter, just build it. The land outside the village doesn't belong to us. As long as they don't occupy the road, it doesn't matter if they are on either side of the road."
"I have extra clothes at home that I can give to them."
"I think some of the refugee girls are pretty. It would be great if we could marry them back to our village..."
Liu Dashi said: "You can contact the refugees if you want, but you must not bully men or women."
"Don't worry, Dashi. There is a God above us. How dare we do something bad?"
At the same time, the elder of the Ling clan had sent his thirteen-year-old granddaughter to contact Ye Ningchuan.
"Hello, Sister Ye, my name is Lingling, can we be friends?"
Lingling is a cute little girl with a baby face, big eyes and an innocent look.
Ye Ningchuan lowered her head, not wanting strangers to notice her eyes.
Liu Xiaoshi also came over and said, "Miss Ye, I heard that you want to build a house. I'm very strong and I can help you."
Ye Ningchuan shook her head. She didn't want to owe a favor to a stranger. The refugees would help her.
"Sister Ye..." Ling Ling called again. She was just a child and it was impossible for her to be too flattering. After finding that Ye Ningchuan ignored her, Ling Ling snorted and ran away angrily.
"Grandpa, Sister Ye doesn't talk to me at all..."
When the elder of the Ling clan heard that his granddaughter was being wronged, he said, "Forget it, go back to the village and play with your little sisters."
…
The refugees borrowed tools from Tianliu Village and began to cut down trees and build houses.
Qu Xiaohua simply bandaged her wound and whispered to Ye Renyi:
"Husband, I see that young man from Tianliu Village seems to like Ye Ningchuan very much. Why don't we use him to build a house for our family?"
Ye Renyi frowned and disagreed: "This is not good, I think the boy's brother is very fierce... Besides, why should we build a house? Tianliu Village is not good at all. I don't want to settle here. I want to leave here."
Qu Xiaohua said: "But meals are provided here..."
Ye Renyi suddenly fell silent.
After a moment, he spoke up: "There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. There must be something wrong with this Tianliu Village. They even have strips of meat on them... Who knows what kind of meat that is?"
Qu Xiaohua's face turned pale. "You mean... that piece of meat..."
Ye Renyi whispered, "Let's eat a few meals first, and then find a chance to escape. I suspect that Tianliu Village will eat people, so we have to leave before they are eaten."
Qu Xiaohua had a frightened expression on her face and said, "Husband, I'm lucky to have you. You're smart..."
Ye Renyi really likes the feeling of being praised.
After the couple finished discussing, Ye Renyi walked up to their eldest daughter, Ye Ningchuan, and said, "Ningchuan, your brothers and sisters are still young and can't work. Your mother's arm is injured and she can't do anything... Building the house can only be done by us, father and daughter."
Ye Ningchuan lowered his head and did not respond.
Ye Renyi had long been accustomed to her behavior and continued, "Go borrow an axe from the people in Tianliu Village and chop some firewood. I'll go choose a location for the house."
After saying that, Ye Renyi was about to turn around and leave, but Liu Xiaoshi grabbed his wrist.
"Hiss..." Ye Renyi took a breath and felt that his wrist was about to be broken.
Liu Xiaoshi was young and hot-tempered. He couldn't bear to see Ye Renyi bullying others like this, so he said sarcastically: "You are such a hard-working father. You let your daughter cut down trees while you go to choose the location of the house... Haha, you have the nerve to say such shameless words. Let Miss Ye choose the location of the house, come here, I will watch you cut down trees!"
Liu Xiaoshi grabbed Ye Renyi and left.
"Let me go!" Ye Renyi struggled, but found that he couldn't move at all.
Liu Xiaoshi exercises all year round and goes out to hunt poisonous animals. His muscles are smooth and he looks very masculine. He dragged Ye Renyi to a tree and said, "Come on, chop down the tree."
Ye Renyi found that his wrists were pinched red. He felt that Liu Xiaoshi was too much, bullying him, a person from another village, "I don't have an axe..."
Liu Xiaoshi crossed his arms over his chest and said lazily, "Use your palms. I see that you are quite thick-skinned, so the skin on your hands must be thick too. Even if you chop the tree with your bare hands, you won't get hurt."
"I..." Ye Renyi really couldn't understand. His eldest daughter was skinny, dull, and had no good qualities at all. Why would Liu Xiaoshi protect her so much?
Ye Ningchuan looked at the scene here and felt a little moved. He didn't expect that a stranger would stand up for him.
Ye Renyi said: "You like my Ningchuan, right? Let me tell you, if you marry Ningchuan, I will be your father-in-law in the future. You'd better be polite to me, otherwise I will never marry Ningchuan to you even if I marry her to an old man!"
"你..."柳小石听了快气炸了,他对叶凝川没那个想法,可是听见叶仁义说出要把女儿"嫁给一个老头子"这种话,顿时怒不可遏,感觉叶仁义面目可憎,十分欠揍.
"I tell you, my daughter listens to me the most." A sneer appeared on Ye Renyi's face, and he shouted loudly: "Ningchuan, come here."
Ye Ningchuan walked over with his head down.
Ye Renyi said, "This kind-hearted villager from Tianliu Village insisted that he could chop down trees with his palms, but I'm old and I don't know how to do it. Can you show me how to do it? Remember to use your palms to exert force. I'll have to count on the side to see how many times it takes to chop down a tree."
"Don't..." Liu Xiaoshi tried to speak out to stop him. He felt that no matter how much a daughter listened to her father, she would not do such a stupid thing. However, Ye Ningchuan raised his hand without hesitation and "hit" the tree with the side of his palm, each hit very hard.
Seeing this, Ye Renyi smiled proudly at Liu Xiaoshi, full of provocation.
