spirit or ghost, we would have more options to deal with it. But when facing a zombie, the only thing we can seem to do is stop its movementI raised my hand to cast the Lei Jue, but unexpectedly, the...We live in this empty city, which was originally the site of a mirage realm And it has been devoured before

How can we possibly live here! Isn't this how the gods treat their descendants!

I looked at Mu Wanchen, he frowned slightly and said: "Who are you How do you know all this"

The man flicked his hair back, raised an eyebrow and said arrogantly, “A thousand miles to the east, there is a city. My father is the lord of that city, and also one of the Kings bestowed by the divine shaman.”

I curled my lip. Mu Wanchen is still the Wuzong, how can he be lower in status than this world's emperor

He trailed off, forcing out a smile: "That... are you a messenger for the Shaman No, how could a messenger for the Shaman be stealing ingredients from me..."

"What Doesn't a messenger of the Divine Shaman eat" I asked.

Of course not, it's not that they don't eat, but that they don't worry. The wizards of Yunzhongxian Mountain all have offerings, don't they Every city within the vast expanse and above the four seas offers tributes according to the seasons.

He saw that we did not fight him, and his attitude towards us improved greatly. He didn't dare to glare at us rashly anymore.

Originally, I didn't realize the level of exploitation here was this severe

But this place was never meant to be human. The ruler of these strange creatures must possess great authority to govern them well.

"What's your name" I asked.

"...Beidang Xi." He estimated he wanted to ask back, "What about you" but seeing Mu Wanchen's face, he didn't dare to ask rashly.

"Beidang... This surname is quite old..."

I've never heard of this surname before.

He raised an eyebrow with pride: “Of course, we've been here for over two thousand years. The shaman told our ancestors that she had met them in another realm and left a secret method behind. So when our family was about to be destroyed, our ancestors fled by water, but they were swallowed by the waves and ended up here…”

"We are the ones chosen by the witch-priest, so we have ruled this city for over two thousand years."

He crossed his arms and smirked, glancing at Mu Wanchen. He realized he was getting a little too cocky, so he immediately put his hands down and asked, "Who are you two If you're messengers of the Divine Shaman, I'll naturally yield to you and not fight."

"You just let the divine envoy go What will you eat if you have nothing" I asked.

"...Just try your best. I ran this far just to scout, and there are still people behind me who will be picking herbs. If the Shaman Witch takes a liking to this place, I'll tell them not to come." He curled his lips into a wry smile, saying helplessly.

"Are you also short of food"

"Well, our place is surrounded by beasts; it's ideal for them to breed. So we have plenty of meat but no millet, sorghum, beans, wheat, rice, or mulberries…"

Huh Meat galore

"Well, well then, how about we switch" I said excitedly.

What do you mean

"Look at these beans, such a vast and endless expanse here. You'd have to travel far to pick them and bring them back, and there's a chance they'll spoil along the way. Why not let me send people to harvest them and deliver them to you Your people could bring some livestock or poultry in exchange. They need to be alive, of course. Then we can meet halfway and exchange them, each taking our share back to the city... I'll even give you the beans with their roots and soil still intact. What do you think This way, we'd cut the journey in half and avoid all the hassle."

He looked at me in some surprise, then at Mu Wanchen. Seeing that Mu Wanchen didn't object, he quickly nodded and said, "Sure! We want ten thousand!"

Even ten million, I would gladly give them.

Although vegetarianism is good for the body, when it comes to nutritional deficiencies, meat and fats and proteins can provide the body with the functions it needs the fastest.

Thinking of that little baby, who could only eat a few drops of that watery, gritty soybean milk at a time, made my heart ache.

It's no wonder these people feel excruciating pain after coming here.

They had no adaptation to these strange beasts and bizarre plants.

Protected within the confines of the Dharma, though possessing some understanding of magical transmission, he was ill-equipped to face the myriad strange beasts and unusual beings of the wild.

"Okay, we need both male and female chickens, ducks, pigs, cows, and sheep that can lay eggs. How many do we have" I said excitedly, rubbing my hands together.

Never felt so happy about bartering.

"As for more than that, I can't control it. Twenty or thirty would still be manageable." He must have thought this was a way to save face for us.

After all, Mu Wanchen's sudden display of sharpness just now frightened him.

“Sure thing, deal! Gotta stay alive!”

I'll go back and mobilize everyone to dig up soybeans! Roots and all!

"What's got the little princess so excited" Mu Wanchen asked me with a smile.

"Before, you could buy anything with money. If my phone fell and broke, or my car broke down, to be honest, I didn't really care." I laughed and shook my head.

"Only recently did I realize that a cup of tea and a meal are already the kindness of relatives. It's really pathetic to be panicked about food... This is the most basic survival need. When I was at home, I didn't even know how hard it was to have a full meal..."

Mu Wanchen raised his hand and brushed my cheek with the back of his hand, his eyes filled with a hint of self-blame.

"If you stayed home...it would be so much better...Following me means constant travel and worry."

"I don't think it's that bad, I find being lost and directionless much harder!" I huffed, still resentful of him for pushing me out of the tomb.

"Well well, you two are actually the King and Queen of this city" Bei Tang Xi looked at them with disbelief: "How could a King possess such power..."

"Stop guessing. We just want to live in peace. If you keep your promise, I'll teach you how to sprout bean sprouts."

It's embarrassing, I only know this much simple life knowledge, but luckily it's useful.

Bei Tang Xi seriously asked, "Really Few people understand this method..."

"Yes, I can still make tofu, and I know how to press oil and brew soy sauce," I said boldly.

Actually, I feel quite guilty. I know these little facts, but I've never actually put them into practice. If my Fifth and Sixth Senior Sisters were here, with their skills in cooking and medicine, I think they could easily be queens.

The way of life here is very ancient, one wonders if it was deliberately so by the shaman or perhaps some deity.

The world they created, perhaps the one they cherish and cling to, holds onto ancient memories.

Perhaps this is for the sake of convenience in governance.

"Then I'll take my leave... The two of you, what should I call you" Bei Tang Xi led his beast away.

"My name is Mu Wanchen," Mu Wanchen said faintly, then tilted his head slightly to look at me.

I thought he was going to introduce me next, but instead, a slight smile played on his lips as he spoke slowly, one word at a time: "This is my... inner… chamber… Her given name is naturally inconvenient to disclose. If you're interested in making her acquaintance, simply call her 'Your Highness.'"even possessing Mu Yunliang's skin like a straw man, I haven't truly harmed you... why don't we consider how we can be mutually beneficial" Situ Lin said陰測測.Behind him was a large glass window. Outsid...
