#176 - Can this reptile really kill me? (4000 words

Chapter 176: This little worm, can it really kill me? (4000 words, two-in-one)

The sky had just brightened.

Shijia Village suddenly became lively.

The men and women in the village got up early to prepare for the "Dragon King Temple Fair."

In the past few days, Shijia Village had been setting up various decorations for the temple fair.

In the morning, they only needed to do some finishing touches.

Before long, a woman came to Luo Sanniang's house, saying that she had brought new clothes for Luo Xiaoman.

The woman helped Luo Xiaoman change into the clothes and put on some makeup, making her look like a doll.

Immediately afterward, four strong men carried a small bridal sedan to the entrance of Luo Sanniang's house.

Luo Xiaoman glanced at her mother and then at Xu Ming.

Xu Ming nodded with a smile.

Luo Xiaoman swallowed her saliva. Although she was a little scared, she still stepped into the bridal sedan.

"Lift the sedan!"

Following the shout of an old woman, the suona horns sounded, the gongs and drums beat, and the four men carried the sedan chair and walked into the distance.

Luo Sanniang stood at the entrance of the courtyard, her small hands, roughened by farm work, tightly gripping the door frame, her thin lips tightly pursed.

Even when her daughter disappeared from her sight, Luo Sanniang did not withdraw her gaze.

"She will be fine," Xu Ming stood beside Luo Sanniang and said slowly.

Hearing Xu Ming's words, Luo Sanniang came back to her senses and looked at the young man beside her: "Sanniang believes in you, young master. You are a good person."

Xu Ming smiled: "I've said it before, I'm not a good person.

A good person wouldn't save Xiaoman and then ignore her, letting other little girls be sacrificed in Xiaoman's place."

Luo Sanniang shook her head: "Sanniang has also said before that to Sanniang's family, you are a good person."

"Alright," Xu Ming patted his sleeves, "I'm leaving."

"Xiaoman is in your care," Luo Sanniang bowed to Xu Ming.

Xu Ming didn't say anything more, but bowed to Luo Sanniang and walked with Yuan Yu towards the open space where the temple fair was being held.

At the same time, the vast majority of villagers in Shijia Village put on new clothes and walked out of their homes to participate in the temple fair.

On the other side, a little boy was also dressed in brand new clothes, sat in a sedan chair, and was carried away by strong men.

The little boy's sedan chair and Luo Xiaoman's sedan chair converged.

The little boy thought he was going to be eaten.

He kept crying in the sedan chair, wiping away his tears.

Luo Xiaoman, sitting next to the little boy, could hear his cries.

But Luo Xiaoman didn't cry.

"I believe in Brother Xu!" Luo Xiaoman tightly pinched the clothes on her thighs.

More and more people joined the celebration procession.

Among them, the village chief walked at the front, followed by a representative from each household, then the band playing gongs and drums and suona horns, then the sedan chairs, and behind the sedan chairs were the villagers of Luojia Village.

The whole procession was very long, after all, Luojia Village had over a thousand people.

Xu Ming and Yuan Yu didn't hide, but openly followed beside the long procession, as if joining in the fun.

Before long, the procession stopped in front of a temple in the village.

The temple was built twenty years ago, and it enshrined the Yellow Sand River Dragon King.

The village chief and several elders of the village, as well as some young strong men, walked into the temple.

"Twenty years ago, Shijia Village suffered a great drought.

It was the Yellow Sand River Dragon King who brought rain to our Shijia Village.

To this day, the Dragon King has blessed our Shijia Village for a total of twenty years.

Today, Shijia Village is holding a temple fair to express our gratitude to the Dragon King.

We also hope that the Dragon King will continue to bless Shijia Village with good weather in the days to come."

The village chief's son lit incense sticks, three for each person, and handed them to the village chief and others.

The village chief and others bowed three times to the statue at the front, and then inserted the incense sticks into the incense burner in front of them.

"The Dragon Lord really knows how to enjoy himself."

Mo Zhu'er walked into the palace of the Yellow Sand Dragon Lord.

At this time, the Yellow Sand Dragon Lord was drinking tea while enjoying the dances of the female demons from the Yellow Sand River.

These female demons were scantily clad, with slender waists and plump buttocks, constantly twisting their bodies.

In addition, there were many other demon races in this Yellow Sand River Palace.

Mo Zhu'er initially surveyed them and saw things like tiger demons, loach demons, and snake demons.

The demonic energy emitted by these demons was at the Dragon Gate Realm at the highest, and mostly at the Sea Gazing Realm.

"Oh, the Holy Maiden has arrived," Seeing Mo Zhu'er, the Yellow Sand Dragon Lord sat up and looked at Mo Zhu'er with a smile.

"Come, let me introduce you to everyone.

This is the Holy Maiden of the Western Region Black Lotus Sect, now the top ten beauty on the Red Beauty List—Mo Zhu'er, Miss Mo.

What do you think, haven't you seen such a beautiful girl in hundreds of years?"

"Greetings, Miss Mo," These mountain spirits and wild monsters all stood up and saluted Mo Zhu'er.

"Miss Mo, this is True Monarch Jinshan, this is Taoist Bai Mei, these are all my good friends, everyone is friends," The Yellow Sand Dragon Lord introduced to Mo Zhu'er.

"Zhu'er greets everyone," Mo Zhu'er bowed.

"Miss Mo is too polite."

"Miss Mo is truly as beautiful as a celestial being."

"I have never seen a beauty as beautiful as Miss Mo."

"Which man wouldn't be fascinated by Miss Mo?"

These demons looked at Mo Zhu'er with burning eyes.

Although the mountain spirits and wild monsters who had been in the deep mountains had seen many seductive sluts, most of them were vulgar women, how could they compare to the great beauty in front of them?

Mo Zhu'er only smiled slightly at the praise of these monsters, but she felt very disgusted in her heart.

These monsters were just monsters, their wild nature unchanged, and the way they looked at her was as if they wanted to strip off her clothes immediately.

No, it should be said that all men are like this.

"Xu Ming has already appeared in Shijia Village, I wonder when the Dragon Lord will be able to take action," Mo Zhu'er looked at the Yellow Sand Dragon Lord and asked with a smile.

"Don't rush, don't rush," The Yellow Sand Dragon Lord waved the wrinkles on his clothes, "This king is also waiting for news.

Today, we will definitely have a result.

When the time comes, we will capture that Xu Ming together and take off his head to make wine!"

"Oh?" Mo Zhu'er looked at the Yellow Sand Dragon Lord with suspicion, "Is that so?"

"When has this king…"

Just as the Yellow Sand Dragon Lord was halfway through his words, the Yellow Sand Dragon Lord, who was drinking tea, paused with his teacup in his hand.

The Yellow Sand Dragon Lord felt wisps of incense merit.

Closing his eyes, the Yellow Sand Dragon Lord saw a bunch of old fogeys worshiping him.

"Hahaha, now is the time!" The Yellow Sand Dragon Lord stood up and laughed, "Everyone, Shijia Village is holding a temple fair for this king, please join me in the fun, and kill someone for Miss Mo by the way."

"That's a good feeling."

"Don't say it's killing one person for Miss Mo, even if it's killing hundreds of people, I won't blink an eye."

"Speaking of which, the Dragon Lord is really respected by the people, unlike me who only knows how to eat people."

"You tiger demon must only raise account ghosts, the Dragon Lord is a man who wants to enter the sea and become a true dragon."

One by one, the demons flattered this Flood Dragon.

The Yellow Sand Dragon Lord was getting more and more comfortable being praised.

The Yellow Sand Dragon Lord stood up, his eyes full of confidence, as if for the Yellow Sand Dragon Lord, that Xu Ming was already dead.

"Miss Mo, would you like to come with me?" The Yellow Sand Dragon Lord asked.

Mo Zhu'er bowed, her figure graceful: "Since the Dragon Lord has said so, Zhu'er will naturally accompany you."

The Yellow Sand Dragon Lord looked at Mo Zhu'er with fiery eyes: "After it's done, don't forget the things Miss Mo promised me."

Mo Zhu'er's eyes were charming: "That's natural~~~"

"Then I'll be waiting for Miss Mo."

The Yellow Sand Dragon Lord licked his tongue, already eager to taste Mo Zhu'er's taste.

"Let's go."

The Yellow Sand Dragon Lord waved his sleeves and turned into a Flood Dragon, rushing out of the Yellow Sand River, and the demons naturally followed.

"Tch! How disgusting," Mo Zhu'er touched her arms, goosebumps all over.

At the same time, the open space in Shijia Village was already lively.

There were dragon dances and lion dances, and there were also opera troupes performing.

After the opera was over, there were also people singing ditties.

Xu Ming and Yuan Yu were joining in the fun in the crowd.

According to the Blue Planet's timekeeping method, Shijia Village got up at 6:30 to prepare, and after worshiping the Yellow Sand Dragon Lord's ancestral temple, it was already 9:30.

Then the village opera troupe performed dragon dances and the like until 10:30.

Now, many people were pulling things out, moving tables, spreading red cloths, and the aroma of food kept wafting over, as if the feast was about to begin.

At this time, the open space looked crowded with people coming and going, but in reality, there were only a hundred or so people.

The others had already gone home, mainly so that they could run away from this open space when the fight broke out.

"Please sit here, you two young masters."

Luo Sanniang led Xu Ming and Yuan Yu to sit at a table.

"Thank you," Xu Ming nodded, brushed his green robe, and sat down steadily.

Luo Sanniang's gaze kept looking in the direction of the ancestral temple.

Inside the ancestral temple were Luo Xiaoman and the little boy, kneeling in front of the statue of the Yellow Sand Dragon King, waiting for the Yellow Sand Dragon King to come.

"Don't worry, Sanniang, Xiaoman will be fine," Xu Ming comforted the still charming woman.

Luo Sanniang only smiled: "I believe in you, young master."

Yuan Yu watched from the side, thinking whether her master liked widows.

Yuan Yu didn't dare to speak, nor did she dare to ask.

However, Yuan Yu was really curious.

In the beginning, Master didn't actually want my help. He only asked me to set up a few supporting formations. Master dared to go and kill a Golden Core Realm Flood Dragon alone.

Should I say Master is really confident? Or is he really not afraid of death?

Although I am also in the Golden Core Realm, Master fought with me in the White Wallow Secret Realm.

But it was different then.

At that time, I fought Master with my Dharma Idol. Because Master's realm was a little lower at the time, my realm was also suppressed a bit, so I didn't exert my full strength.

But this time, Master is facing a genuine Golden Core Realm Flood Dragon.

"They're here."

Just as Yuan Yu was lost in thought, Xu Ming took a sip of tea and said calmly.

Yuan Yu raised his head, and not far away, waves of astonishing demonic aura swept over like a storm.

Yuan Yu's eyes were filled with surprise.

This wasn't because of the mighty demonic aura not far away, but because Master's perception was so powerful, even more sensitive than my own as a Golden Core Realm cultivator.

The Flood Dragon flew over in the air. When the villagers of Stone Family Village saw it, they all knelt down and shouted, "Welcome, Dragon King!"

The Flood Dragon transformed into a human form and landed from the sky.

Beside this Flood Dragon were some other goblins and a woman with exceptional beauty.

When the group landed, the villagers looked at the woman with bare, snow-white ankles, wearing a black dress that didn't even reach her knees, revealing her snow-white thighs, and they were all stunned.

They had never seen such a beautiful woman.

Seeing that the crowd had entered the formation without noticing, Xu Ming took a sip of wine indifferently.

As soon as Xu Ming put down his wine cup, Luo Sanniang rolled up her sleeves and refilled his cup.

Xu Ming looked at Luo Sanniang, somewhat surprised, "Aren't you going to worship this Dragon King?"

Luo Sanniang glared at Xu Ming, "How can Young Master say such a thing? This evil dragon wants to eat my daughter, how could I possibly worship him? I want to cut him into a thousand pieces!"

Xu Ming was taken aback and apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. That's indeed the case."

Huangsha Zhenjun looked at the people kneeling before him, feeling extremely comfortable. In front of the other mountain spirits and goblins, as well as Mo Zhu'er, he felt incredibly proud.

In reality, Mo Zhu'er only smiled inwardly at Huangsha Zhenjun's smug appearance.

A Golden Core Realm demon being worshipped by these hundreds of villagers was already getting carried away. It was truly hilarious.

It could only be said that this Huangsha Zhenjun was still a country bumpkin who had never seen the world.

In the Southern Border Demon Kingdom, a Golden Core Realm demon was already the city lord of a small city.

Soon, Huangsha Zhenjun saw Xu Ming and the other two drinking and eating not far away.

The main reason was that everyone else was kneeling, but only Xu Ming, Yuan Yu, and Luo Sanniang were not kneeling, which was too conspicuous.

"Which one is Xu Ming?" Huangsha Zhenjun asked.

"The best-looking one among the two men is him." Mo Zhu'er stretched out her fair and delicate finger and pointed in Xu Ming's direction.

Huangsha Zhenjun glanced at Xu Ming with some displeasure and sneered twice, "No wonder he can be a consort. He is indeed good-looking."

The other demons looked at each other, wondering what "consort" meant.

"Let's go, let's greet the consort, or he'll blame us for not knowing etiquette before he dies."

Huangsha Zhenjun walked towards Xu Ming.

Walking up to Xu Ming, Huangsha Zhenjun said in a small gangster's tone, "I didn't expect to meet the consort in this kind of backwater. This little one is truly honored."

Xu Ming took another sip of wine, put down his cup, and glanced at Mo Zhu'er beside Huangsha Zhenjun, "Did you find a helper to kill me?"

Mo Zhu'er's eyes curved, "I found one ~"

"Is that so?" Xu Ming's lips curled up, looking at Huangsha Longjun, "But do you really think that this reptile can kill me?"
