Chapter 258 The Girl's Difficulties
Haha, Jing Cangming would definitely not interfere in such matters. Once he helped, it would become a mess in the future.
Jing Cangming had a gloomy face. He didn't care whether the old village chief knelt down and kowtowed to beg or not. He turned around, picked up the girl behind him and left.
"Sir! Please save us! Sir!!!" the old village chief shouted hysterically.
However, no matter how the other party shouted, Jing Cangming still left without looking back.
As the hysterical voice became farther and farther away from her ears until it could no longer be heard, the girl spoke.
"The villagers are innocent." The girl's voice was very clear and pleasant, like a lark. Moreover, at this moment, the girl's face had a hint of haggard beauty.
Jing Cangming shook his head and said, "If the leaders of a village are all like this, I don't believe the villagers can be that kind."
"But..." the girl said tenderly.
"No buts," Jing Cangming said this righteously, and the two of them stopped talking about this matter.
Slowly, the sky gradually darkened, and until now there was no trace of the second village, so I decided not to leave.
Here in the East Continent, it is also very bright at night. The only change is that the sky changes from white to black.
Jing Cangming found a small hill. It was not big, but it was at least ten meters high.
On the mountain, Jing Cangming found an open space, put the woman in his arms down, and then sat down beside her.
Although the taste of fire and magma beasts is different from the raw meat of the Northern Continent, it is still not as delicious as beasts of other attributes.
Jing Cangming sat there cross-legged without moving. In the blink of an eye, two plant-like rabbits appeared in his hands.
After the two rabbits came out, before Jing Cangming could roast them with flames, the green color of their skin began to turn yellow in an instant, and eventually turned into the color of cooked meat.
Jing Cangming looked at the two rabbits in surprise, and bursts of fragrance wafted from his body from time to time.
The fragrance seemed to be equipped with a positioning navigation system and floated towards the girl's nose.
It didn't matter to the girl when she smelled it, what mattered was that her stomach started to growl.
Jing Cangming naturally noticed this as well. After all, they were the only two men and women on the top of the mountain.
Although Jing Cangming had no good feelings towards this girl, he would not abuse her.
Jing Cangming stood up, walked over holding a ripe rabbit by its ear, and handed the rabbit to her.
"Here, eat it," Jing Cangming said, shaking the rabbit.
The girl looked at Jing Cangming, then at the rabbit, then swallowed her saliva, her eyes almost falling on the rabbit.
Seeing that the girl was not moving, Jing Cangming pretended to leave and said, "If you don't want to eat it, I'll take it away."
As soon as these words came out, the girl's hands were like phantoms, and with a "whoosh", she snatched the rabbit from Jing Cangming's hands.
Although the girl was very hungry, she ate in a very beautiful way. She held the rabbit in one hand and used the other hand to tear off the delicious meat from the rabbit, then gently put it into her mouth and chewed it.
When the first bite of meat entered her mouth, the girl was obviously stunned, as if she had never eaten anything so delicious before.
On the other hand, Jing Cangming had already eaten a normal-sized rabbit until only a pile of bones were left, which were then thrown on the ground and burned to ashes.
But...Jing Cangming escaped and caught another one, and now he was chasing the second rabbit like a mad dog or a wolf.
Soon Jing Cangming finished eating the two rabbits and was full.
Just as he looked at the girl, he discovered that it took her a long time to eat half a rabbit leg.
It was obvious that Jing Cangming was a little embarrassed, making himself look like a foodie.
"Where are you from?" Because the two of them were too embarrassed, Jing Cangming chose to speak first to break the awkward situation.
The girl ate the rabbit while looking at Jing Cangming. It was obvious that she didn't expect Jing Cangming to talk to her first.
The girl swallowed the meat in her mouth, then wiped her mouth gently, "My family is from the East Continent, what about you?"
"Western Continent," Jing Cangming said casually.
"Ah? Western Continent? Then why did you come here from so far away?" the girl said in obvious disbelief.
Jing Cangming shook his head. "Then what are you rushing to do during the day? And don't you look at the road when you walk?"
At this point, Jing Cangming was obviously a little angry again. He really couldn't understand how someone could come into such a big place and bump straight into him. It was hard not to think that the other person was looking for trouble.
The girl sighed, her eyes full of worry, "There was a chaos in the family and my father asked me to go back. I was a little too anxious and got distracted on the way. I'm sorry, I hit you."
Jing Cangming asked, "Are you from a noble family?"
Jing Cangming did not respond to her apology, but the fact that she took the initiative to apologize did improve his opinion of her.
The girl nodded and said, "Yes, a small family in the East Continent, the Molten Fire Family."
"So what do you mean by the family turmoil you just mentioned?" Jing Cangming's curious baby mentality came up again.
The girl put the rabbit down, hugged her legs with her arms, and rested her chin on her knees. "My father is an elder of the Molten Fire Family. He told me that the family fell apart because some people wanted to flee the East Continent to other continents because they couldn't stand the brutal fights every day. The other part wanted to defend the family's honor and refused to leave until they died, so the fighting started."
Jing Cangming looked helpless. He really didn't expect that there would be a family that would kill each other over such a thing.
"If they want to leave, can't we just let them go?" Jing Cangming continued to ask.
The girl shook her head gently, "It's not that simple. The head of the family is a man who swears to defend his honor to the death. He will not allow everyone to leave and thus weaken the family's strength."
"Then you are asked to go back to participate in the battle?" Jing Cangming asked.
The girl shook her head and bit her lower lip tightly, looking like tears were about to flow.
"No, the master's son and I grew up together. We are childhood sweethearts. He has always liked me, but I have no feelings for him. The person who advocated leaving this time was my father. The master of the family gave him a condition that if I go back and marry the master's son, they will let my father and others leave."
Jing Cangming's eyes widened immediately, "So, you are the bargaining chip for your father and the others to escape alive?!"
The girl smiled bitterly and said, "I guess so."
"But if the head of the family lets your father and the others leave, wouldn't that go against the purpose of family honor?"
"Although family honor is very important to the patriarch, the patriarch, who had a son in his old age, values this son more. From childhood to adulthood, the patriarch has given this son whatever he wanted. That's why the patriarch let my father and others leave for his son," the girl said, her tears having fallen to the ground and evaporated.
Jing Cangming also smiled bitterly, "What's the situation with your father and the others now?"
The girl cried and shook her head. "I don't know. My father has lost contact with me ten days ago. I'm afraid he has been imprisoned by the head of the family..."
Jing Cangming suddenly looked helpless. It seemed that this noble family was not that great, and the East Continent really completely shattered his three views.
The forces on the mainland fight each other every day, and the defeated ones have to offer a young girl every day. There is also the so-called arena. These are shocking enough to make me shocked. Now, for the sake of my son's happiness, I have imprisoned the elders...
Anyway, Jing Cangming has come to a conclusion so far, that is, the leaders of the East Continent should all be tyrants.
"What is the strength of the head of your family?" Jing Cangming asked curiously.
"Level 74," the girl said calmly.
"Ah? At this level, one can become the head of the family?!" Jing Cangming couldn't believe it. This might be another thing that shattered his three views.
After all, in the other two continents where he had been, the heads of the families were at least at the Beast Emperor level.
The girl said, "This is how it is in the East Continent. No one will stop you from establishing your own power and family. For the East Emperor, the more forces like this there are, the more things he will see every day. He won't mind if a few more women are contributed every day."
"You really have no bottom line at all?!" Jing Cangming said in surprise.
"Yes, as long as you can bear the consequences of failing to contribute a woman, you can establish your own power," said the girl.
"Many big forces have Beast Emperors and the like. Even if they form a family, won't they fail every day?"
"That's not the case. The daily competitions in the East Continent are based on the level of the family leaders. The Beast Emperor's forces fight against the Beast Emperor's forces, and the Beast King's forces fight against the Beast King's forces. There will be no cross-level fights or melees. The East Emperor doesn't want all the weak forces to be destroyed within one day. This will reduce a lot of fun for him."
Jing Cangming nodded slowly, "So that's how it is." It seems that it is not as tragic as those people had rumored when he came here.
Yes, if everyone is allowed to fight regardless of their level, the strongest force may destroy all other forces within a day, and there will be no daily battles.
Jing Cangming had roughly understood it, although he didn't know how much it differed from reality.
After Jing Cangming learned about the girl's situation, he was basically sure that the girl would not attack him at will.
So, Jing Cangming walked behind the girl.
"What are you going to do?" The girl clearly showed a trace of panic. After all, she couldn't beat this man. If he wanted to do anything, she would have no ability to resist.
Jing Cangming said, "I will heal you."
After saying that, Jing Cangming's hands glowed green and he hit the girl on the back without waiting for her consent.
The green light flickered only for a moment, then grew dimmer.
Jing Cangming was shocked. Could it be that plant-related skills cannot be used in the East Continent? ! ! !
Jing Cangming closed his eyes and carefully observed the state of the plant energy in his body.
