Chapter 163 - Chapter 163 The Origin of the Shadow Monster

"Well, stop talking." Luo Mingyue held her forehead and blushed because of the praise. In her opinion, it was just a small effort. Xu Yintong kept praising her, which made her start to feel embarrassed, because Luo Mingyue knew that she was not that great at all. The cause of the incident was that the system left this cardboard box and gave her a chance to play the role of a god.

  In fact, even if an ordinary person gets this box, he can become a "god" in the eyes of the villains.

  Therefore, Luo Mingyue has a clear understanding of himself——

  She just happened to meet a group of people in distress and happened to extend a helping hand. The little people thanked her and worshipped her as a god. She will try her best to play the role of god, but will not become arrogant because of it.

  Luo Mingyue said: "Yintong, go to sleep, don't think so much."

  "Silver pupils?"

  Hearing this intimate name, Xu Yintong felt sweet inside. She raised her eyes and asked boldly, "Did the Lord God touch my head before because I took the lead in kneeling?"

  "No." Luo Mingyue shook her head and said, "Because I like silver... I met a prophet before. He had long silver hair and I touched his hair. Although your hair is black, your silver eyes are very beautiful."

  Xu Yintong pursed her lips and smiled, "So that's how it is... Lord God, when I grow up, I will also have silver hair. Then I hope Lord God can touch me more."

  Luo Mingyue smiled and said, "Okay."

  Then he asked curiously, "Why did your hair turn silver when you grew up?"

  Xu Yintong said: "Because silver is a symbol of power for the Prophets. Most of the Prophets in this world have black hair and black eyes, which is no different from normal people. But among the Prophets, there are also those who are born strong, that is, those with silver hair or silver eyes. Among them, the silver eyes are the strongest, because my eyes can see many things that others cannot see, and can also see the more distant past and future, and even... even see some deeper things, but I can't say it out loud, because the time is not right, some secrets can only be secrets."

  Luo Mingyue: "…" A child actually acted as a riddle teller.

  Xu Yintong added: "The strength of the [Prophet] is actually related to the lives of the villagers. If the people live in misery, the [Prophet] will be very weak. However, starting from believing in the gods, the people in our village will become happy, and I will become stronger and stronger. One day, my hair will become the silver-white color that the gods like best, and then I will let the gods touch it every day."

  Her eyes were clear and innocent, curved into beautiful crescents.

  So Luo Mingyue also laughed, "Okay."

  Xu Yintong raised her head and murmured, "My Lord God, why are you so kind..."

  She thought her voice was low enough that the gods might not be able to hear it, but the hearing of cultivators was far superior to that of ordinary people. Luo Mingyue said, "No reason, go and rest."

  Only then did Xu Yintong go back to the house obediently.

  Luo Mingyue glanced around the entire Baishan Village, and seeing nothing unusual, she planned to stroll to the other three villages and towns. But just as she was about to raise her foot, she saw a black shadow seeming to be wriggling on the circle of land where the miasma forest originally grew.

  The black shadow swayed and split into many small black shadows, and then these small black shadows dispersed and moved slowly on the ground.

  "Why?"

  Isn't this the kind of shadow that can make a puppy grow old and die?

  Could it be that the source is here?

  But the direction is wrong. If Shadow leaves Baishan Village and wants to reach Mojia Village, he must pass through Hulu Town, or take a longer detour...

  Just as I was thinking about it, I saw these black shadows avoiding the location of Baishan Village. Most of the shadows chose to move south or west, but some shadows gradually dispersed and moved towards the north during the movement.

  Luo Mingyue stretched out his fingers, and the shadows seemed to smell the fragrance from the "food". They moved their bodies with all their might and swarmed towards Luo Mingyue's fingers.

  During the squirming process, several shadows came into contact with each other and merged, becoming a larger shadow. It stretched its neck hard and finally touched Luo Mingyue's finger...

  Then, the shadow slowly dissipated as if it had eaten poison.

  The rest of the shadows seemed a little hesitant, but the "food" was so delicious. They had no intelligence of their own, and even after witnessing the death of their companions, it could not stop them from pursuing the "delicacies". So one shadow after another came forward, touched Luo Mingyue's fingers one after another, and then died.

  Luo Mingyue used one hand to attract the group of shadow monsters, and with the other hand, reached out to the source of the shadows, which was the place where the miasma forest once grew.

  "call--"

  There seemed to be a satisfied sigh in the air, and the huge, ribbon-like shadow monster no longer split into small shadow monsters, but greedily moved towards Luo Mingyue's fingers. The previous group of small shadows began to disintegrate almost as soon as they touched Luo Mingyue's fingers, as if they had taken a deadly poison and died in a second. However, this large shadow had a strong ability to resist poison. It even climbed onto Luo Mingyue's index finger and gradually spread to Luo Mingyue's entire hand, as if it was wearing a black shadow glove for her.

  Qing Rui saw this and said, "Sister, take your hand out quickly and use mine!"

  Luo Mingyue said: "It's okay, they just look scary, a dark mass, but my hands are just a little cold, nothing else."

  Qing Rui said: "That won't work either. This shadow can devour lifespans. My lifespan is very long. Let it eat me."

  As he spoke, Qingrui's body changed into that of a seven or eight year old, and he stretched out both of his hands.

  The huge black shadow had never seen so many "delicacies" before. It moved towards Qingrui's hand excitedly, but it didn't realize that its body was constantly disintegrating and shrinking. Although Luo Mingyue and Qingrui both wore "shadow gloves", the shadow tried to extend towards their wrists and arms, but the more they moved and squirmed, the faster they disintegrated.

  After a moment, the shadow disappeared, as if it had never appeared.

  The little shadows also died one after another.

  Qing Rui squinted his eyes and felt it for a moment, then said, "Strange... My life span has not been lost, or maybe they devoured too little of my life span, maybe only a day or two, so I can't detect any changes in myself."

  Luo Mingyue didn't feel anything either. She kept her hand on the ground for a while, making sure no new shadows appeared, before she withdrew her hand.

  Qingrui touched his chin and said, "Let me help you keep an eye on it. There is a miasma forest outside this village. After the miasma forest was eradicated, a shadow with the ability to devour appeared at night. The shadow also avoided Baishan Village. In addition, the people in the whole village can see you... I think there is something strange about Baishan Village. There must be a big problem."

  Kong Han heard this and said, "Master, do you want me to call a few peacocks to help?"

  Kong Han is tall and straight, with a cool and handsome appearance, but his words and actions have nothing to do with the word "cold". He blinked and looked at Luo Mingyue, with a handsome face, but his eyes were full of desire.

  Luo Mingyue smiled helplessly and said, "The new village has just been unlocked, and I want to keep it fresh for a few days. In addition, it takes at least three days to refine the Transformation Pill each time..."  

  Kong Han said disappointedly: "Okay, I understand."

  There is no such thing as a third time. He has mentioned this matter many times, but every time the master found an excuse to delay. He felt that the master might not want to contract the peacock, so he lowered his head and sighed, thinking: I can't mention this matter again in the future. The peacock should have self-knowledge and can't always bring up the same thing, which will make the master hate it.

  "However," Luo Mingyue thought for a moment and said, "Your tribe should be quite far away from here, right? It just so happens that I don't have time to pick them up, so you can send a message and ask the two peacocks to come over."

  Luo Mingyue can use three alchemy furnaces at a time to refine three transformation pills. She plans to use two first and keep the last one for herself. After all, she prefers fluffy pets and doesn't want to contract all of them with peacocks.

  "Really?" Kong Han's heart was instantly filled with great joy. He didn't expect that the master would really agree to it. He said incoherently: "Thank you, master. We will definitely work hard for you and will never let you down..."

  Kong Han is a chatterbox and he talks non-stop when he is excited. He is deeply moved, his eyes are red, and his joy, anger, sorrow and happiness are all written on his face, making it easy for people to tell what he is thinking at a glance.

  It was night now, and the Little People Village was very quiet, with basically nothing happening. Luo Mingyue accompanied Kong Han to send the letter out, because the Mingyue Sect was guarded by a formation. Without the imprint of Luo Mingyue's spiritual power, the letter could not fly out of the sect at all.

  After coming back, the corners of Kong Han's mouth kept rising, and he couldn't stop smiling. He hummed a song and came to the sky above Mojia Village. He wanted to find someone to share his joy, but the little people were all asleep. Kong Han could only share his joy with his sweetheart Ye Keke.

  Ye Keke was feeding insects and she responded incoherently.

  Song Lu stretched out his finger and was teasing Ye Renyi, because Ye Renyi was lazy and gluttonous. In the past two days, Ye Renyi started to smash things as soon as he was not satisfied, which made Song Lu dislike him very much.

  But since Ye Renyi is related to the fortune teller Ye Ningchuan by blood, if Ye Renyi is driven away, Ye Ningchuan will also be forced to leave. Therefore, Song Lu can only continue to raise Ye Renyi. But even if he is raised, it is still okay to scare him occasionally.

  Ye Renyi felt like his soul was about to fly away, "Someone pushed me and pushed me down!"

  Qu Xiaohua was a little scared, "Husband, can you please stop scaring me? I didn't see anything... You fell down by yourself just now."

  "No, it wasn't me, something really pushed me..." Ye Renyi looked terrified. He accidentally fell when he got up tonight. Then he remembered that his recent days had been bad, so he woke his wife up from her sleep with a curse. The couple had a quarrel, and while they were quarreling, Ye Renyi ran to the yard and got a piece of wood.

  Qu Xiaohua chased after him, angry and sad, "You unfaithful man, I gave birth to your children, and you still want to hit me?"

  Before Ye Renyi could open his mouth to speak, he was pushed down by Song Lu, and the couple's quarrel came to a halt. Ye Renyi was so scared that he threw away the wood and hugged his wife tightly.

  Qu Xiaohua said with a straight face, "Let me go!"

  Ye Renyi shouted: "Don't let go!"

  Qu Xiaohua laughed angrily, "You fell down just now, and you were covered in dirt, which rubbed against me. It's not you who washes the clothes at home... Why did you want to hit me with a piece of wood just now?"

  Ye Renyi said: "You misunderstood, I just wanted to put a piece of wood between our beds so that neither of us would be touching each other..."

  Qu Xiaohua sneered, "Then why are you hitting me now?"

  Ye Renyi said: "I'm scared. I suspect I'm being watched by a ghost..."

  "Haha, what bad things did you do in the past? Otherwise, why were you the only one who was pushed down, but I didn't feel anything?"

  Qu Xiaohua pushed him hard but failed to push him away. She could only frown. The couple hugged each other and returned to the room in a weird posture.

  Song Lu laughed happily in the sky.

  He didn't like Ye Renyi and his wife, but that didn't stop him from viewing the couple as fun. After all, the lives and ways of getting along of ordinary people were still very interesting. There couldn't be only kind and honest villagers in this world. There would always be some people with bad character. If a village was full of harmony and everyone's character was perfect and impeccable, then it meant that the village was definitely abnormal.

  In the blink of an eye, a night passed.

  The next morning, Luo Mingyue served breakfast to the children in Baishan Village as usual.

  Ye Keke only feeds insects at night. She doesn't need to feed the little people in the town during the day. She turned to look at Luo Mingyue and said, "Master, are you fickle? In the past, I only saw you take care of the little people in Mojia Village so considerately. Now that Mojia Village has fallen out of favor, your attention is focused on Baishan Village."

  Luo Mingyue said: "My ultimate goal in raising them is to enable them to have the ability to self-regulate and self-protect, not to take care of them for their entire lives."

  Life in Mojia Village is almost back on track. As long as Qingrui brings rain regularly, they can survive well, and Konghan is also there to take care of them.

  Baishan Village is different. The vegetable fields in this village are poisonous and the villagers are so thin. They need more care.

  Ye Keke said: "I find the lives of ordinary people really interesting. I want to make my body smaller and live in Hulu Town for a while."

  Luo Mingyue said: "Becoming smaller is not a good thing. You will lose your spiritual power and won't be able to do many things. Before, when I was in the sky and saw a bad guy, I would just throw a stone down and kill him. But when I became smaller, I couldn't kill anyone..."

  Ye Keke asked: "Why is this happening?"

  Kong Han said, "This is very simple, because we are in two different worlds, and the rules of the world are different. Our world is full of spiritual energy, and the world of Lilliput is full of the power of rules. They will be bound by the rules. Ordinary people may not feel this kind of restraint, but it is very obvious to the awakened ones. For example, the [Mortal Master] will be restrained by his own blood relatives, and the [Prophet] cannot run around. I guess that the [God] is also restricted in the Lilliputian Kingdom. Good gods cannot kill people, and evil gods cannot save people... Of course, these are my guesses when I have nothing to do."

  Ye Keke was thoughtful. "I think your guess makes sense. The master is equivalent to a good god. She will also be bound by the rules in Lilliput."

  Luo Mingyue didn't listen to the conversation between the two contracted beasts anymore, because the villagers of Baishan Village had already gotten up one after another and found that stone basins were falling from the sky.

  "God... has another reward?"

  "It should be breakfast..."

  The villagers rubbed their eyes and hurried to the altar.

  Several stone basins were filled with vegetable porridge, egg soup, fried dough sticks, cold dishes, and steamed buns...

  There was also a stone basin filled with what could barely be called "dumplings" because it was obviously a huge dumpling that had been chopped up and put into the stone basin, with the fillings and the dumpling skin mixed together. However, the little people did not dislike it. After all, the vegetables were fresh, and the dumpling skin was also fresh. What else could they be dissatisfied with? Anyway, as long as they could fill their stomachs, it was fine. Besides, everyone used to think that eating steamed bread was delicious, and now eating buns is even more delicious. No one is picky about food.
