Chapter 292
"Our village isn't without spare grain."
Zhang Tian spoke beside the old village chief.
His face still had a simple and honest expression.
The old village chief beside him was slightly stunned when he saw this Military Lord speak.
The people beside the old village chief also seemed to be stunned, but immediately nodded.
After all, they hadn't forgotten how this Military Lord had instructed them before.
"Then prepare a bowl of rice for this person."
The old village chief spoke, and a woman beside him immediately hurried toward her home.
Subsequently, she brought over a large bowl of chestnut rice, steaming with heat.
When Qikeer saw such a large bowl of chestnut rice, his eyes went straight.
He snatched the bowl of rice from the woman's hand and began to shovel it in hurriedly.
The villagers beside him had been surrounding him, watching Qikeer eat.
"It seems this person is really starving, he ate the freshly cooked chestnut rice directly."
"Exactly."
You know, when chestnut rice is freshly cooked, it has a very high temperature.
If you are not careful, you might burn your lips.
Qikeer naturally knew this, and his mouth had already been burned with several blisters.
But in order to disguise himself as a refugee who hadn't eaten for a long time,
he could only bite the bullet and continue eating.
The scalding rice entered his stomach, and his stomach also felt waves of pain.
Qikeer could only eat the whole bowl of rice as fast as he could.
"Hurry up and leave, our village can only give you this bowl of rice."
Zhang Tian said.
As soon as he finished speaking, several people beside him immediately echoed.
"Hurry up and leave."
"Our village has no more rice to give you."
The children beside him started to tease again.
Qikeer pretended to be frightened and ran toward the village entrance holding his head.
After this person left, the other villagers walked toward their own homes one after another.
But Zhang Liang narrowed his eyes and looked at Qikeer's back, lost in thought.
"Military Lord, are we going back?"
The old village chief asked hesitantly beside him.
"Let's go, let's go back."
Interrupting his train of thought, Zhang Tian walked directly toward the old village chief's house.
On the other side, Qikeer, as soon as he walked out of the village, revealed a painful expression.
He grabbed the snow on the ground and began to stuff it into his mouth.
The cold snow entered his stomach, which seemed to relieve some of the scalding in his stomach.
Feeling that it seemed a bit more comfortable, Qikeer grabbed the snow even faster.
But after filling his stomach with snow, Qikeer climbed up from the snow.
He staggered and walked toward the location where Pake and the others were.
At this moment, Qikeer's mouth was full of blood blisters.
"How is it?"
Pake was the first to discover Qikeer's figure.
He walked directly toward him and asked.
"There is indeed grain in the village."
"During this period, people have been coming to this village to beg."
"It seems the news shouldn't be fake."
Qikeer said with a hoarse voice.
"What happened to you?"
Pake heard Qikeer's voice, and his eyebrows immediately frowned.
"Your subordinate, in order not to arouse the suspicion of those people, just ate a bowl of scalding chestnut rice."
Qikeer said.
After listening to Qikeer's words, Pake's face changed immediately.
"Are you crazy?"
"That could scald a person to death."

"Boss, I'm fine, let's hurry up and tell the leader the news about this village."
Qikeer waved his hand, indicating he was fine.
Pake carefully checked Qikeer's body, and after confirming he was fine, he felt relieved.
Although he didn't like such a thin subordinate before.
But he was his subordinate after all.
"Go, leave."
After saying to the other subordinates, everyone mounted their warhorses and retreated from the village again.
Zhang Tian stayed at the old village chief's house.
He didn't leave until dusk.
He knew that the group of Xiongnu who came to scout for news should have left by now.
When Zhang Tian led the main force to the village, he immediately arranged the manpower in several positions he had designed in advance.
This position was exceptionally hidden and could not be discovered in advance in the dark.
30, 00 men were too many, so in order not to alert the enemy, Zhang Tian only brought out a few thousand men.
The rest of the troops were all placed by Zhang Tian a few miles away.
The movement on their side naturally couldn't escape Qin Mo's eyes.
Yuan Zuozong immediately told Qin Mo the news here.
"Young Master, Meng Tian seems to have intended to take action."
Yuan Zuozong said.
"And they have brought 30, 00 men, surrounding the entire small village."
"Our people can only watch from a place very far from the small village."
This point was something Yuan Zuozong hadn't expected either.
He didn't expect Meng Tian to send 30, 00 people to deal with these Xiongnu.
It seems the previous incident of the Xiongnu slaughtering the village had completely angered Meng Tian.
"You go, just ensure that a small number of Xiongnu can escape smoothly."
"I still hope that this branch of Xiongnu can lead the way for me."
Qin Mo said calmly.
It was as if the news he just heard was just like someone admiring flowers somewhere.
Plain.
Having received the order, Yuan Zuozong only took a few men and quickly approached the village.
All the other Great Snow Dragon Cavalry were arranged by him around Qin Mo.
It was not mainly to protect the Young Master, but to provide manpower for the Young Master.
Yuan Zuozong didn't think anyone could threaten the Young Master.
After all, with the Young Master's strength, no one had been able to defeat him yet.
………
In Xianyanggong.
After being busy for a period of time, the prayer ceremony was finally prepared.
Ying Zheng immediately announced this news to the world.
When the common people below heard this news, they immediately started discussing it.
"His Majesty is going to Zhongshan to pray."
"I heard it's for the people in the Northwest."
"The spirit of Zhongshan can pray to the heavens for sweet dew, I also hope His Majesty's prayer ceremony will go smoothly."
Some common people below, after hearing this news, spoke one after another.
Although they were not in the Northwest.
But they could also understand how hard the lives of the people in the Northwest were.
Two years of severe drought.
There had been no rain for a long time, and even the land had begun to crack.
Before, the people in the Northwest had been displaced and left their homes.
Just to be able to find a way to survive in other places.
Thinking of this, those common people who received the news naturally hoped that the Northwest would return to normal as soon as possible.
"Your Majesty, is Moon Goddess also going with you this time?"
Zhang Han asked.
He was not going with Ying Zheng for this prayer ceremony.
For Moon Goddess, who proposed the prayer ceremony, Zhang Han's attitude was a bit complex.
This woman suddenly appeared in the imperial palace.
But every single thing she predicted had come true.
For a person with such special abilities, Zhang Han's attitude was relatively complex.
Because they were completely unable to investigate Moon Goddess's background.
Such a terrifying person, yet she couldn't be grasped in their hands.
Even if used, there was some wariness.
"I will not leave her in the palace."
Ying Zheng spoke.
He naturally knew what Zhang Han was thinking in his heart.
If Moon Goddess were left in the palace, she could definitely influence Fusu, who was temporarily in charge of the government.
"I will let Moon Goddess serve as the witch for this sacrifice, communicating the connection between the gods."
Ying Zheng continued.
Generally, such sacrifices or prayer ceremonies would require a witch.
And the witch's role was to dance and communicate the connection between the gods.
So the status of the witch was still very high.
Ying Zheng felt that no one was more suitable for this position than Moon Goddess.
Moon Goddess in the imperial palace, upon receiving Ying Zheng's decree, had no fluctuation in her expression.
Xing Hun beside her frowned.
After the palace servant left, Xing Hun spoke directly.
"What exactly does he want to do?"
"Since he let you serve as a witch, isn't this insulting you?"
Xing Hun's face was ugly, and his tone was very bad.
After all, with Moon Goddess's status, as a dignified National Master, how could she become a lowly witch?
"Doesn't this just fit our wishes?"
Moon Goddess suddenly spoke.
When she said this, a trace of confusion flashed in Xing Hun's eyes.
He didn't quite understand what Moon Goddess meant by this sentence.
"When the Northwest really receives sweet rain, who do you think the people will believe in?"
Moon Goddess spoke.
A trace of contemplation flashed in Xing Hun's eyes, and then he spoke.
"Ying Zheng."
He hesitated for a while, then continued.
"And you, who proposed this method."
Speaking of this, Xing Hun immediately understood what Moon Goddess meant just now.
If Moon Goddess hadn't participated in this prayer ceremony, the common people would only incidentally revere her.
But when Moon Goddess became the witch of this prayer ceremony.
The common people would elevate their faith in her to the level of a god.
After all, she proposed this prayer ceremony, and she was also the witch communicating with the gods.
"Only after completing this matter will my status in Ying Zheng's heart be elevated."
"Now that Donghuang Taiyi has no whereabouts at all, I cannot let the Yin-Yang school decline completely."
Moon Goddess said, her voice cold.
From the moment she chose to become the new leader of the Yin-Yang school.
She planned to completely abandon the previous leader, Donghuang Taiyi.
Because she couldn't let the things she foresaw come true.
Although she didn't know who that young boy was in the scene she foresaw?
But Moon Goddess knew clearly in her heart.
Although she had never heard of this young boy's whereabouts, he should have already revealed his edge.
After all, a person without any power could not topple the entire Yin-Yang school.
And from those scenes, it could also be seen that this young boy's strength was very powerful.
Even if she practiced Yin-Yang arts like her, she could master the power of the stars.
She was still no match for that young boy.
After all, in the scene, she was the one who died at the hands of that young boy.
After completing this matter, she must let Ying Zheng find someone who could use sword arts.
……
……
…….

Moon Goddess's gaze fluctuated.
Sword.
The head of all weapons in the world.
There were as many people who could use sword arts as there were hairs on an ox.
But those who could practice to that kind of means were few and far between.
She didn't believe that someone with such means would be unknown.
But these, Moon Goddess could only do privately.
"You stay in the imperial palace."
"Once anything happens in the imperial palace, report it all to me."
