711 Simple System (2)
When the news spread, the Savage Kingdom would definitely be shocked. It was impossible for them not to react.
Ning Ruqin felt guilty. “It’s all my fault for causing you trouble.”
“At least you have some self-awareness. Most of the people here are aloof from worldly affairs. You’ve made them oppose a country.”
Song Shi glanced at Ning Ruqin and agreed with her attitude.
Ning Ruqin smiled bitterly. “Senior is right. I’m a calamity.”
“This isn’t all your fault. Since you’ve already died once, you’ve paid a price for your mistake. For the time being, stay here obediently and do chores to raise chickens, ducks, geese, and fish.”
Song Shi gave Ning Ruqin an arrangement. “As for the rest, don’t think too much about it.”
“Thank you for protecting me, Senior.”
Ning Ruqin bowed seriously. She knew that if Song Shi left her here, it meant that he would help block the troubles of the Savage Kingdom.
As long as the problem with the Savage Kingdom was resolved, her predicament would not be an issue.
“Take good care of the flowers and plants here. If you don’t know anything, learn from the villagers.”
Song Shi pointed at the things in the courtyard.
“Yes, Senior.”
Ning Ruqin nodded.
“I’ll stay with the princess.” The maid, Jiaojiao, walked over and said.
“Bring the others over and arrange for them to stay in the village. Don’t be in a hurry to reveal her current status.”
After Song Shi finished making the arrangements, he walked out of the door and looked at the enemy trapped in front of the village by his palm. When he thought about how he could provoke a country without moving around in this world, he felt a little emotional.
Originally, he thought that it would continue to be peaceful. Unfortunately, the tree wanted to be quiet, but the wind would not stop howling.
“If the commotion is too big, Celestial Venerable Reincarnation will probably notice again. Before he makes a move, I have to make more preparations.”
He said to Ning Ruqin, “Go cook a large pot of porridge for the villagers to nourish their bodies and recover.”
When Ning Ruqin heard this, she responded and entered the kitchen.
As a princess, she had never cooked before, but she had seen others cook before. Moreover, cooking porridge was such a simple thing. It was not difficult for her.
She filled a large pot of water, then made a large portion of rice, covered the pot lid, and squatted on the stove to light the fire.
She, who had never burned firewood before, did it for a long time. Her face was smeared with a lot of black before she lit the fire. In the end, she choked on the smoke.
Song Shi turned around and looked at the room full of smoke. His face twitched. “I’m afraid that Dumbo wants to marry her because she’s beautiful. He doesn’t know if this woman can even cook. She’s not a good choice for a wife at all. She’s not qualified even in the village.”
He did not care much. Thinking that the watermelons planted at the back of the mountain should be ripe, he turned around and passed through the bamboo forest to a watermelon field. He looked at the crystal-like watermelons inside and nodded. “They should be ripe.”
This watermelon had been strengthened and nurtured by him for many generations. Now, it was no longer an ordinary watermelon. Even the ground under his feet was of a higher level than the so-called Spirit Soil.
It was not just the melon fields. There were also many lands nearby that were planted with different things. They could let him satisfy his cravings in his free time and adjust to his ordinary secluded life.
“I’ll take this.”
Song Shi lowered his body and plucked a crystal watermelon. The watermelon’s skin was thin and sweet, and the energy contained in it was comparable to a top-notch spiritual fruit. Its weight was huge and surpassed ordinary spiritual fruits.
“This is not bad either.”
He plucked more than ten watermelons. Every watermelon was bigger than a human head and carried a faint fragrance.
He returned with the watermelon and placed it in the courtyard. The fish in the pool immediately moved and circled the watermelon excitedly.
“Master, are you going to eat watermelons again? Give me a piece. The consumption of saving people will recover.”
The little goldfish looked at Song Shi eagerly.
“Don’t be anxious. When the villagers come, let’s eat together.” Song Shi said.
The little goldfish nodded, but its mouth was drooling as it sucked in the fragrance emitted by the watermelon.
Song Shi was helpless when he saw this. He walked over and waved at a watermelon.
Crack! Crack!
With a shattering sound, the watermelon was instantly cut into pieces. Song Shi picked it up and threw a piece to the little Golden Crow. “Eat it. It’s enough for you to recover.”
“Wu, thank you master.”
The little goldfish happily wagged its tail and controlled the watermelon to come to the side. In the next moment, a light fluctuated and turned into a golden-robed little girl with some scales on her face.
This was her shapeshifting state. Compared to the big black dog and the others who did not want to be human, this little goldfish was more inclined to shapeshift.
She imitated him and took a bite of the watermelon. She immediately smiled like a flower and said in a childish voice, “Master, it’s really delicious.”
After she took a bite, her body emitted a blue light that was like water. The consumption of saving people from before was quickly replenished.
Song Shi also opened his mouth to taste it. He had strengthened this watermelon for several generations. Even if it was not an immortal watermelon, it was still a top-grade spirit item.
“After you’re done eating, go call the villagers and give them more food.”
Song Shi said that the Savage Kingdom would definitely take revenge. He had to give the village’s combat strength some benefits in advance to increase their strength.
“Yes, yes. Master, are you going to give them strength again? I saved someone just now and the merit is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Master, can you give me some rewards so that I can shed all the characteristics of my fish body?”
Little Fish continued to look at Song Shi eagerly.
“There will naturally be your reward. Digest your watermelon first. Don’t be greedy.”
Song Shi snorted. The power contained in this watermelon was not simple.
As expected, Little Fish’s stomach became round after taking a few bites. A majestic power appeared in its body. It hurriedly brought the watermelon back to the pool to absorb and digest it.
Ning Ruqin finally progressed smoothly in cooking porridge. Her face was covered in black marks. When she walked out and saw the watermelons in the courtyard, just looking at them made her very hungry.
“Eat some to recover your vitality.”
Song Shi gave the other party a small piece.
“Thank you, Senior.”
Ning Ruqin was touched.
She looked at the watermelon with green crystal-like skin and red crystal-like flesh. After taking a bite, she immediately felt warm all over. Pure power nourished her body and helped her recover faster.
Knowing that this was a precious thing, she controlled the speed at which she ate and digested some of it. Then, she took the watermelon into the kitchen and stayed there.
The little goldfish’s stomach was round for a long time before it calmed down, which meant that she had digested most of her strength.
A blue light flashed, and a girl in a golden dress appeared beside her. She looked to be eleven or twelve years old and looked cute.
This time, there were no more scales on her face. As she touched it, she observed the pool water. She immediately jumped up happily. “Haha, I’ve finally perfectly transformed. There are no longer any flaws.”
“It’s about time. Go and call for help.”
Song Shi said. The battle at the village entrance had temporarily come to an end.
At this moment, outside the village, the villagers were all tired from fighting. Some were meditating to recover, and some were discussing.
“These barbarians are indeed fierce. Even though we have the advantage, they still injured so many people.”
“That’s right. Young Master Song even lost a few chickens, ducks, and geese.”
“We’re indeed a little pampered. We can’t compare to these people who often fight.”
“That’s normal. Ning Country lost in the competition with the Savage Kingdom. It can be seen how powerful they are.”
The village chief was thinking at the side. When he heard everyone’s words, he said, “In the future, we can’t just live on. For some young people and those who have thoughts of fighting, we still have to train more. Otherwise, if we’re lazy, we’ll definitely suffer greatly when we encounter such a situation.”
“I agree. The Savage Kingdom will definitely not stop after this. The next battle will probably be even more intense.”
Old man Mu’s expression was solemn. He had experienced many things outside and knew how cruel this kind of battle would be.
If not for the fact that he was in the Ning Country’s territory and in the mountains, he would even be worried that the Savage Kingdom would send an army over to take revenge.
“Fellow villagers, my master invites you up to drink and eat watermelons.”
Little Fish’s voice sounded. Everyone turned around and smiled when they saw the girl. Clearly, they knew her.
“Eh, Little Fish, are there no flaws on your face?” The village chief noticed the change in Little Fish.
“Hehe, that’s right. I’m already a demon who can perfectly transform.” Little Fish said happily.
“Tsk, what’s the point of turning into a human? The main body is more comfortable and the strongest.”
In a black shadow, the large black dog landed. His entire body was covered in blood. He glanced at the little goldfish from the corner of his eye and deliberately shook his body to shake off his choice.
“I want to become a human. It’s none of your business.”
The little goldfish pouted. It could be seen that she often bickered with the big black dog.
The large black dog sniffed and his eyes lit up. “You ate watermelon?”
