She couldn't even imagine where her people would go if she left the Land of Salt.
This fear lingered in Heuliah's heart and could not be dispelled.
……
After finishing the discussion with the Salt God, Kuxue could roughly understand what the other party was worried about.
But even if I understand, there is nothing I can do.
Even with Heulia's ability, the Emperor would not really ask her to go to the battlefield, and just let her concentrate on providing logistics.
But if all her people need to rely on others for protection, and their survival depends entirely on the thoughts of others, this may be too difficult for her to accept.
Therefore, you cannot be impatient when persuading the other party, you need to proceed step by step.
There were no accidents on the way back. Although some foolish monsters jumped out, they were easily dealt with by Yingda and Fanan.
After returning to Guiliji, she was welcomed by everyone, including the young man named Awan.
He seems to like life in Guiliji very much. I just hope he doesn't let down his pure faith.
The days passed slowly, and the sown seedlings grew bigger day by day, and soon it was time for the summer harvest.
The golden rice fields swaying in the wind like waves made many farmers who have been farming for a lifetime feel deeply moved.
The seeds left behind this time can be used to expand the scale again, and the food harvested is called Guili Ji, so there is no need to worry about food this year.
The grain cart sent to the salt country also arrived safely under the girl's personal escort.
As a result, he also received cups and bowls from the Salt God.
There is a never-ending supply of half the salt.
The girl placed it at home and relied on it for daily use, without ever thinking of taking advantage of others.
Promoting trade between Guiliji and the land of salt will obviously be more beneficial to future development.
Life was simple and plain, and soon the autumn harvest of the year arrived. This time, the people of Guiliji fully witnessed the power of the Xuanyu seedlings.
The day when every household could eat rice and white flour buns came at an unimaginable speed.
Kuxue's reputation spread far and wide again, causing more people to yearn for Guili Ji, and also causing many demon gods to once again raise their vigilance against "Liyue".
That year, there was only one night of light snow in Guiliyuan.
Although covered in snow, it is bursting with vitality.
Chapter 32: War breaks out
——If those who are still alive recall it, they will definitely think that the first few years when Lord Kuxue first arrived were a rare period of peace.
The people live and work in peace and contentment, with no worries about food and clothing. The country called Liyue is entering a period of rapid development and prosperity.
The prosperity was so great that Kuxue almost forgot that she was living in a chaotic world.
However, peace is ultimately an illusion. Like the calm before a storm, one morning when the gods woke up, all the peaks controlled by the gods in various places were affected.
The flames of war spread from Tianheng Mountain to Yaoguang Beach. Even on the top of Jueyun Mountain, there was an eagle-like demon occupying the top. The Qingce Village where the girl had once visited was also turned into a large area of scorched earth.
The war has begun. Regardless of whether people want it or not, the devil is bound to fight for the ownership of this land in this chaos and strive for the throne of the sky.
……
"Quick, move the wounded over!"
"Doctor! Is the doctor still here?!"
"The Thousand Rocks troops who can still move, please follow me quickly. The front line is being attacked, and we must return to the battlefield!"
"A thousand rocks... are solid, and the mountains... are immovable!"
When he came to his senses, even Gui Liyuan, who was blessed by the Emperor, was caught up in the flames of war.
Kuxue concentrated on cutting off the infected and necrotic parts of the injured person, and then used the innate magical powers that belonged to the immortals in his blood to wipe away the foul air, stop the bleeding, bandage the wound, and hand it over to others to take care of.
It's not that she doesn't want to be perfect, but there are too many injured people, and even she can't treat each and every one of them who are continuously sent here.
Long before, Sister Ganyu could accompany her here to heal her wounds, but now the war is intense, and even Sister Ganyu has to be summoned to various battlefields.
As a result, most of the injured in Guiliji needed her to handle emergency situations, and then hand them over to other doctors.
Sometimes, even seriously injured immortals would be sent here, most of whom were Yakshas.
Some have been infected by the devil's aura, lost their minds, and only have the instinct to kill.
At this time, Kuxue must end their suffering as soon as possible...
She no longer knew how much blood her hands had been stained with, some from humans, some from immortals, and perhaps... one day, they would be stained with the blood of her own relatives.
It was a dark time.
She was almost numb to the point of feeling sick... When receiving a wounded person, she no longer tried her best to heal him, but instead assessed the severity of the injury immediately, and then gave up after confirming that there was no hope of saving the patient.
The body parts piled under the bed had even filled up a wooden barrel and were rolling around.
If you are contaminated by the breath of the devil before his death, if you don't deal with it quickly, it will gradually spread throughout your body, making you unable to live or die.
And she... had no solution at all, the only thing she could do was to remove the lesion.
It was also during this period that prosthetic limbs appeared in large numbers.
Their appearance is not to allow people to return to normal life, but to allow those who have lost limbs to step onto the battlefield again, and then return to the bitter snow bed in a tattered state again.
"Next……"
The girl's once light voice has become hoarse, and her assistants like Mei and Nai are similar.
Mei, whose fatigue was already hard to conceal, nodded woodenly, then she and her sister Nai pushed the injured person out, and soon brought in another person.
It was An. The little boy who had taken good care of her, now a head taller than her, had been summoned to join the Qianyan Army.
However, now that he was missing an arm, not only did his face look pale, but the light in his eyes was also quite dim.
But when he saw her, he still forced a smile that looked more like crying than laughing.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you..."
"No need to say more, just have a good rest."
Kuxue could only lower her head and treat his injuries, but An did not do as she expected. Instead, he spoke with trembling lips.
"...Lord Kuxue, do you know when the war will end..."
"……I am not sure."
Kuxue shook her head and looked at him who seemed somewhat sad.
"But if you want to see that day with your own eyes, you'd better stop talking."
Perhaps it was these words that convinced him, and An slowly closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Only Kuxue continued with what she was doing.
She thought she could change something with her knowledge, but she never expected that this would make Liyue the target of public criticism. Even though Gui Zhong and Emperor Jun never blamed her, the people of Guiliyuan still loved her as always.
But the girl still felt unspeakable torment.
In order to resolve the war, we must create a "weapon" that can be the final word.
It can be used to intimidate other demons, and the amount of immortal power required for such a mechanism is probably difficult to measure.
But if you have the ability but don’t do it.
You will regret it.
……
Unfortunately, the progress of developing a mechanism with "anti-demon-level deterrence" has been slow.
Not only do I run into a wall everywhere with my ideas, but I also simply don't have the time to do it.
She was too busy, not only had her sleep time been compressed to a short nap, but even her three meals a day were simplified to just a few mouthfuls of porridge.
Under such pressure, even a half-immortal body would be unable to support it. In order not to exhaust herself, she had to temporarily postpone her research on the mechanism.
However, the bad news coming from the battlefield made her anxious.
Until one day, the news that Sister Ganyu was swallowed by a giant beast came from the mouth of a wounded man, and Kuxue finally couldn't bear it anymore.
She went against her duty and stepped onto the battlefield for the first time, using all her immortal power to use the Goddess's Secret of Summoning Spirits to kill all the demons that blocked her way.
Until they broke into the battlefield and tore into pieces the giant beast that had swallowed Sister Ganyu, who was lying lazily on her back, as if refining something.
After searching for her sister in her belly for a long time without finding any trace, Kuxue felt an uncontrollable pain.
The half-immortal girl bathed in the blood of the giant beast and cried among the remains. The blood dyed her hair, which was as white as first snow, bright red.
It makes everyone who hears it feel heartbroken.
Fortunately, from the bulging throat of the giant beast, the head of the fairy unicorn, which was also bathed in the giant beast's saliva and looked confused and helpless, emerged.
"...Kuxue, why are you here?"
When the two looked at each other, the girl rushed forward, hugged her head and beat it continuously.
"... Foodie sister, I told you not to be so careless..."
Ganyu felt ashamed of her sister's warm tears, and even a little embarrassed to face her.
Perhaps, for other immortals, Ganyu's ability to choke the giant beast that wanted to swallow her with her own size is a rare and interesting thing that can relieve tension in the war.
But for her sister who was always too gentle and caring, hearing the news that she was swallowed by the giant beast was probably a bigger blow than anything else.
Because of this, Ganyu did not feel the joy of having escaped by chance, but instead felt a sense of guilt that kept crawling up her spine.
The strong appetite that he had always had since birth almost completely changed at this moment.
That night, she only took the minimum amount of the dinner that Kuxue prepared for her.
Then, when my sister was at a loss, I expressed to her my determination to control my body shape and not make careless mistakes again in the future.
I vaguely remember that she seemed to be so angry that she laughed, but her expression was full of doting.
In this way, the Demon War lasted for several years.
The first batch of demon forces that invaded Guiliyuan were all repelled or suppressed, and Li also began to clear out the Wuwangpo demon forces that had launched the most fierce attack.
Chapter 33: Still want to hide?
The crusade against the Demon God of Wuwangpo is a very time-consuming and laborious task. His demonic authority is related to dreams. He can weave dreams that are both real and false, causing people to change unconsciously, and even their personalities become different from before.
And his generals are the most numerous among those that Kuxue knows so far.
From evil beasts to fairy beasts controlled by them, or "human dream bombs" created through dream weaving, they all pose a strong threat.
Although for a demon god at the level of the Emperor, he is basically not afraid of this.
But for the immortals and the soldiers of the Qianyan Army, these endless, true and false dreams are really annoying.
Sometimes they were fighting side by side, but in the next second their companions who had fallen into a dream would stab them with weapons.
Even if they were woken up, it would be useless. Their cognition had been completely distorted. I'm afraid that in their minds they had already been captured by the enemy.
Therefore, the murderous intent they exude is also particularly heavy. When dealing with those people whose dreams are polluted, immortals are needed to cast spells to protect their dreams from being disturbed.
However, there are not many such immortals, and the most important thing is -
The enemy's generals are also consciously targeting the immortals under the Emperor, such as the so-called little demons and ghosts.
With the help of the Qianyan Army, they can resist and even kill them.
After all, in these years of frequent wars, the development of the mining area on the east side of the original area allowed the emergence of a large amount of metal to allow the development of weapons to be rapid.
This is also because the emperor gave personal instructions and left behind magical weapons for craftsmen to learn.
There is even an artisan town called Mingyun Town that has developed there, specifically serving the Qianyan Army, which has a growing demand for weapons.
However, the Qianyan Army is now in its infancy. Although it has been able to initially take part in demon-level wars, it still has a hard time facing the demon subordinates who have only a limited understanding of the subject.
Actually, the Qianyan Army cannot be blamed for this. They have done a good job and have been able to avoid being the target of teasing and hunting in the past.
Now they are able to fight to the death with the enemy, and even charge into the enemy with military formations. This is enough to prove the combat effectiveness of the Qianyan Army.
However, facing those targets that even the immortals have difficulty dealing with, their role is mostly to exhaust the enemy's energy, and then the immortals can make the final blow.
