Chapter 242: Fermenting Despair

Qu Ji slammed the table hard, walked out of the door, and angrily entered another house. Then the two angry men walked to other houses.

More and more villagers walked out of their homes angrily.

They could no longer stand this kind of life, and all they needed was a trigger.

And now, the fuse has been lit.

A large number of villagers, holding torches and weapons, came all the way to the gate of the inner castle.

Several castle guards, armed with exquisite weapons, stood in front of the villagers. They used to be arrogant when facing the villagers, but when countless angry villagers stood in front of them, they were also afraid.

One guard ran into the castle to spread the word, and several others laid down their weapons and surrendered.

But the angry villagers did not let them go, but beat and kicked them. When the crowd dispersed, they had no breath.

The villagers rushed into the castle angrily, grabbing anything they saw and smashing anything they couldn't grab. The concubines who served the lord also screamed and fled.

They moved forward without anyone being able to stop them, and finally they kicked open the door of the hall and arrived at the lord's room.

The lord was still stuffing food into his mouth quickly as he had seen Li Zhi and others before. The table was filled with fine wines and delicacies, roasted whole lamb that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, steaming pork stew, venison hot pot...

Most of the food he ate was brought back by the hunting team with great efforts, and now the lord was enjoying it all alone.

This time, the lord did not explain as he did to Li Zhi and the others before.

The villagers, who had been enraged for a long time and were almost irrational, could not listen to his explanation. Various weapons were raised and struck hard on the lord's body, or pierced into his body.

When he was halfway through eating, he was very big and had very strong vitality. He didn't scream during the whole process, but just looked at the ferocious-looking villagers calmly.

There was mockery in his eyes.

In the end, the lord's heartbeat stopped and blood covered the ground. The villagers cheered. The mountain that had been weighing on them for hundreds of years was finally moved away. From now on, they are free!

Their prey can be controlled by themselves, everyone will be full and no longer hungry, no children will starve to death, and they will prosper.

But, is this really the case?

"You, what are you doing!"

When a beautiful girl with chestnut hair saw this scene, the plate she was holding fell to the ground and she let out a heartbreaking cry of pain.

This girl's name is Ji Fanhua, and she is the lord's 'wife'.

Every ten years, the lord would select beautiful girls throughout the village, one of whom would be his wife, and the other would be his concubine.

Qu Ji grabbed Ji Fanhua's hair and said, "You are an accomplice of the devil, and we should execute you, but I will give you a chance to redeem yourself and make meritorious deeds, as long as you tell me where the warehouse of life is."

After the death of the lord, the village will usher in a new order. At that time, Qu Ji will become the new lord. Ji Fanhua is the most beautiful girl in the village. It would be a pity to kill her now, so Qu Ji plans to keep her alive.

"For meritorious deeds, Mingtu..." Ji Fanhua burst into tears and screamed with a broken expression: "There will be no Mingtu in Mingtu's warehouse in the future. Everyone in the village will die!"

The reason why she agreed to become the lord's wife was partly because she was forced to do so, and the other half was because she knew that the lord was in this village.

But now, all hope is gone.

Everyone will die, whether they are good people or bad people, old people or children...

Without life, it is impossible to provide for tens of thousands of people just by going out hunting. And without the protection of the lord, can they still go out hunting?

Snap!

Qu Ji slapped Ji Fanhua: "Why are you so crazy? Do you want to die?"

Ji Fanhua stretched out her hand and pointed at the lord: "Open his belly and take a look. He will never be alive again."

The villagers dug open the lord's belly and found that there were unformed and formed life soil inside, as well as the holes in his body. Ji Fanhua didn't need to say more, they already understood what happened.

In the lord's room, there is also a row of bookshelves, which contain the lord's diary and records of the affairs of the village that he has ruled for such a long time.

Not many of the people who came in were literate, but the two or three who were literate were enough to find the truth from the records.

Despair enveloped everyone, and then spread from one person to another, and everyone in the entire village knew about this desperate future.

People were walking blankly on the street, some were lying on the ground muttering to themselves, and some were looking at the sky with tears in their eyes.

Qu Ji beat his head crazily: "What have I done? What have I done!"

His forehead was even bleeding, but he still didn't stop.

Pain and regret filled him with the desire for self-destruction.

There were cries and roars everywhere outside, and chaos became the mainstream of the village.

Qi's mother hugged Qi Xiaohua and Qi Dazhu's wife, and the three of them hid in the room and blocked the door tightly.

In this situation, no one knows what others will do.

Before starvation destroys a village, they are more likely to be destroyed by other insane villagers.

The only thing they can do is to stay at home and wait for Qi Dazhu and the others to come back. In this case, having a young and strong man in the family will give them a backbone.



Unconsciously, the sky was shrouded in clouds, and a strange wind blew.

A man's voice hummed softly.

This song seems to be congratulating on new life.

But at this time, the village has become a fermentation tank of despair. Tens of thousands of people are worried about the future and despair about life, which has attracted some terrible things.

These things are all twisted shadows, floating in the air, slowly squirming.

One of them selected Qu Ji, and then entered Qu Ji's body lightly.

Qu Ji suddenly felt that his body began to itch, so he scratched his skin until all the scalp and flesh were pulled clean, and then a scarlet monster covered with bone spurs crawled out of his body.

This monster scared the surrounding townspeople and screamed. He quickly rushed to a woman, grabbed her waist with his sharp claws, and licked her face with his huge tongue.

But in the end, the monster endured it and left the village with weird steps, as if dancing.

The birth of monsters has given rise to people's despair, causing more monsters to appear. They seem to be obeying certain rules, and apart from scaring, they have not hurt anyone.

These monsters are the demons that have recently descended on the earth.
