Keqing, it’s just cultivating immortality, is it that difficult?

Therefore, the sturdy man tensed up and answered subconsciously like a primary school student.

Seeing him like this, the person next to him pushed him away with contempt, and a thin young man came out. He had a kind smile, but his words did not match his appearance.

"My lady, we are only after money, not life. If you are sensible, take out your property to save your life."

"If you don't know what's best for you, then, hehe..."

An evil smile appeared, and not only Keqing felt unhappy, but even the companions who were traveling with her felt it was a bit creepy. Wang Er was quite good at pretending, no wonder no girl wanted to marry him.

"is it?"

The girl in the carriage was calm and composed, as if the threat before her was not worth mentioning. This made Wang Er stunned for a moment, not knowing how to react.

That’s not right. Shouldn’t the other party’s reaction be to be afraid and then hand over their belongings?

Several people were dumbfounded. How could they continue to act?

Just then, someone suddenly discovered something was wrong.

Perhaps it was because Keqing's face was too beautiful and her expression was too calm, which cooled down the excitement of the few people and made them more rational.

"Speaking of which, do you find it strange that there is no driver on the other side's carriage? Then how did the horse just now walk obediently?"

"Yes, there is no one driving the horse, how come the horse is so obedient?"

"And did you notice that the whole carriage was very clean? The horse looked like it had just been washed, without any mud on it."

Although there was no wind, the bells on the car were still thinking. The more they thought, the calmer their hearts became, and the significance of the details that they had previously ignored emerged.

They had been lying in ambush here for several days, so there were no single carriages. The most they saw were a few gangsters riding big horses, or some caravans. They did not have the ability to handle the former, nor the strength to handle the latter, so they were overjoyed to see a single carriage coming.

But at this time, there wouldn't be any noble lady traveling alone, especially on this small path, without worrying about danger at all.

Some things become more terrifying the more you think about them.

How could a single woman go out in such a famine year? And looking at the woman's posture, she has an ethereal appearance and a sword hanging on her waist. Just standing there, she looks like a fairy.

This look, could it be that the group of Lu 94; Jiu 36] 135...

"monster!"

The strong man exclaimed and took a few steps back

"You monster!"

The sturdy man, who suddenly realized what was going on, was hit on the head by the person behind him.

Several people looked frightened and quickly forced the strong man to kneel down, kowtowing while trembling.

"I didn't know you were an immortal. Please don't blame me for being so powerless!"

"Please forgive me, Immortal."

"Immortal, Immortal!"

The strong man and Wang Er were dumbfounded. Although immortals were rare, they had heard of them. They heard that they could call the wind and rain and destroy a village or a town with a wave of their hands. If someone accidentally angered an immortal, they would not even die.

A few years ago, Mr. Wang from the neighboring town seemed to have angered an immortal and did not want to marry his daughter to him. As a result, his wife and children were separated, his family was broken up, and he was tortured to death.

As for reporting to the authorities, who would dare? The county magistrate wished that this incident had never happened and directly ordered the constable to set fire to their house. He even said that it was Mr. Wang who was disrespectful to the immortals and was therefore punished.

Of course, these are just rumors. They don’t know the truth, but they do know one thing, that is, immortals are very scary and can take their lives with just a flick of their fingers.

Keqing was slightly stunned. She didn't expect that these mortals guessed her identity after just a few questions and knelt down immediately.

She didn't deal with these people immediately, but asked Xiao Meiqiu.

"Just now, do you think they lied?"

As a system that has lived for a long time and has countless memories, Little Coal Ball is extremely experienced in observing other people's emotions and the truthfulness of their words, which is something Keqing discovered on the road.

Often, before she goes out to rescue people, the other party will be able to roughly guess the content of the fight between the two people, their general personalities, and the truthfulness of their words through their facial expressions, small actions, and conversations. She can't say it's 100% accurate, but it's pretty close.

This really made Keqing's eyes light up. Although she could roughly judge it, that was based on her years of experience. However, it was a bit surprising that Xiao Meiqiu could do the same, or even better than her.

After all, the other party looks so stupid, how can this kind of observation ability be unlike it! Otherwise, how could it fall into my hands?

However, Keqing didn't know that all this was actually her credit.

As the saying goes, "Birds of a feather flock together." The previous hosts all took the initiative to work and did not need to use their brains at all, so a lot of knowledge in their brains could not be used and became increasingly useless.

However, since following Keqing, things have been different. First of all, the situation is different. Before, he was the master and the host was the slave, but now he is the slave and his master is such a smart genius.

For a moment, the sense of crisis increased

Big, Little Coal Ball began to worry that he would be discarded because he could not demonstrate his value. In addition, Keqing has always said that merit is linked to reward, and the greater the help, the greater the reward. In order to make a living, Little Coal Ball had to use his brain and work hard to explore his abilities.

That's why I developed this skill.

Ever since she discovered Little Coal Ball's ability, Keqing would sometimes let it take a look before making a decision when she encountered something, fully training her subordinates' abilities, increasing efficiency and assigning the right people to the right jobs. This is also what a leader should do.

[Master, they are not lying. Look at their weapons. They are all hoes, rakes and other farm tools. They must be farmers.]

[Moreover, the hands holding the weapons were trembling, and it was obvious that they had not done this for many years. When they saw you, the master, there was a sense of guilt in their eyes, which meant that this might be their first time and they were unfamiliar with the weapon. Not to mention that these people were ragged, thin, and had yellow skin. It looked like they had not eaten a full meal for a long time. Moreover, their legs and feet did not move when they walked, and it was obvious that there were wounds on their feet, which should be blisters formed by long-distance walking.]

[So, they might be refugees fleeing... I just don't know if it was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster.]

"Well, you said a lot."

Hearing Keqing's praise, Little Coal Ball was delighted.

Hehe, I was praised again, which shows that it is valuable!

Because he is often shocked by some of his master's actions, Little Coal Ball has clearly understood that his master is a unique genius, no, an outstanding talent, or even better than an outstanding talent.

With a master like this, and one with such a good temper, the future will definitely be smooth.

However, there are always other geniuses around geniuses and there is no useless person. When Xiao Meiqiu thought of this, he was afraid and worried that the other party would abandon him, so in order to make himself have core competitiveness, he has been exploring his abilities during this period.

Look, my hard work paid off. I was discovered and praised by my owner immediately, hehe.

In the past, Little Coal Ball probably never imagined that one day he would be so willing to work for others and enjoy it.

All I can say is... there is always someone stronger than you. When faced with someone as competitive as Keqing, even Chong would want to become competitive.

No wonder those subordinates of Liyue once experienced pain and joy at the same time.

Chapter 65: Refugees (Part 2)

"It seems that you are not lying. Let me ask you again, you really have never killed anyone, and this robbery is just the first time?"

As the footsteps approached, the few people could only see a pair of slender white wrists and delicate embroidered shoes appear in front of them.

Several people were sweating profusely and lowered their heads even lower, almost touching the ground.

It seems that they were right in their guess. The other party was indeed an immortal master. It was almost there, just a little bit...

For a moment, several people felt sad and kowtowed quickly.

"Sir, we really didn't kill anyone. This is the first time we've done something like this. Please let us go!"

"Yeah, please have pity on us, this is our first time. If we weren't so hungry and the elderly and children at home needed to eat, we wouldn't do such a thing."

For a while, there were constant cries for mercy, and everyone kowtowed subconsciously, begging the Immortal Master to let them go.

If they had known earlier, they would not have done this robbery. It is said that this is a detrimental act. Why did they actually come to rob after being instigated?

It is impossible to say that there is no regret in one's heart. Of course, now everyone is more filled with fear and terror. They just hope that the immortal master in front of them can let them go and not pursue the matter any further.

Seeing this, Keqing sighed.

"In that case..."

Hearing Keqing say this, everyone's faces lit up with joy. Did the Master forgive them and was leaving?

Everyone was excited for a moment, but her next sentence made everyone feel like they were falling into an ice cellar.

"Then take me to where you are camping."

Everyone's face was gloomy. Could it be that the Immortal Master didn't want to let them go? He wanted to catch them all in one fell swoop.

My heart felt cold, as if it had been poured over with ice-cold well water, and my head felt as if it had been hit by a sledgehammer.

"Master, please don't! We..."

Although they begged for mercy, some people subconsciously tightened the farm tools in their hands, determined to fight to the death if all else failed.

I thought so in my heart.

However, at this moment, the girl in front of him waved her hand, and the carriage beside him turned into a stream of light and fell into the palm of the girl's hand, turning into the size of a palm.

Such a magical method made the hearts of several people even more nervous in their efforts.

This, this is a real immortal!

All of a sudden, the weapon in his hand loosened, his breath suddenly dissipated, and his face turned extremely pale.

How could they deal with such means? Everyone was filled with despair. They didn't expect that there would be natural disasters and man-made disasters in front of them, and disasters caused by immortals behind them. It seemed that God really wanted to kill them!

Keqing seemed unaware of the expressions of these people. She ignored the confusion of Xiao Meiqiu and put the carriage in her hand into the Chen Ge pot.

It took a long time before she spoke.

"The death penalty should be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped. Although the robbery was only the first time, it must be punished. However, if you atone for the sin..."

"We are willing to forgive! We are willing to forgive, it all depends on the Immortal Master's order!"

"Yes, yes, fairy, we will do whatever you say."

"It's all our fault that we didn't recognize the great man and disturbed you, the Immortal..."

Before he finished speaking, everyone kowtowed to express their agreement.

They were overjoyed to hear that there was hope for survival.

, looking like he was ready to die.

Seeing this, Little Coal Ball suddenly realized.

"Since you are willing to forgive me, I will trust you for now. You lead the way... Although there are only a few of you involved in the robbery, your family and friends are also accomplices and should be punished together."

Hearing the Fairy's words again, everyone's heart skipped a beat, but compared to before, they dared not say anything. Instead, they felt fortunate in their hearts, so they did not dare to say much and hurriedly led the way.

Keqing also walked slowly behind him. Although it was a bumpy path, it felt like flat ground under her feet. Her leisurely stroll in the world made the others dare not act rashly and they were even more afraid of the immortal's power.

[Master, do you really want to punish them? Why do you want to do this? ]

In the eyes of Little Coal Ball, Keqing is undoubtedly a kind and gentle master who is incompatible with this world; if it was someone else who threatened him just now, he might not think it was a big deal, but if it was his own master, it would be a little strange.

She is not such a person.

Sure enough, Keqing just shook her head.

"Of course not..."

[Then why……]

"Who do you think they are?"

Keqing asked back

【refugee……】

"Refugees? Do you know that when a man-made disaster occurs, chaos breaks out and who do the people fear the most?"

The little coal ball blinked.

[An official? ]

Keqing shook her head. Seeing that Little Coal Ball was thinking hard, she knew that he didn't connect it with the idea, so she explained.

“They are also afraid of refugees…”

【Eh? 】

“Refugees are refugees when they are suffering, but when they are oppressed to the limit and hit rock bottom, then these refugees can become thugs, robbers, or evil people.”

Keqing spoke slowly.

"The robbery just now was their first time, which shows that they already have evil intentions. Don't look at them as pitiful. If there is a first time, there will be a second time. Once greed is not restrained and they experience the pleasure of doing evil, then this group of people are no longer pitiful people, but evildoers."

"And now, they haven't done anything evil yet, but they already have such thoughts, which shows that their moral bottom line is at the lowest level."

Keqing paused, with an indescribable complexity in her eyes.

"If I treat them well, they might think that the Immortal Master is nothing but a foolish good man. This will send them a signal, a signal that it is okay to fail in doing evil."

Keqing sighed.
