Why did the lord rebel

Chapter 140 The Reverse Journey of All Things
Although the strong laborers in Luna Village have started excavating in full swing since the lord arrived, but until the sun went down and the tired birds returned that day, the gang still failed to dig up the legendary treasure and let the lord The adults set foot on the old way home.

At this moment, on the Luna Village Square, a large-scale deep pit has appeared:

In addition to a bunch of shirtless bandits from Luna Village digging soil at the bottom of the pit with shovels, there are also many people pushing wheelbarrows, constantly transporting the excavated soil away from the site, as diligent as a colony of ants.

For the Yueshenzhai bandits who specialize in combat and do not work hard, they are not very familiar with the work of digging holes and digging soil. Fortunately, these wilderness men are strong enough and physically strong enough. After an afternoon of repetitive work, The efficiency of mining has been significantly improved compared to the beginning.

The scene of busy labor in front of him reminded Xia Houyan of the scene of building a building in his hometown on the earth: for a real estate plan, the construction team drove an excavator to dig out a large piece of foundation, but before the construction started, the developer Juan Qian ran away with his sister-in-law...

As a result, that piece of construction land was completely turned into a landfill pit, emitting a stench no matter in season, summer, autumn or winter.

Of course, Xia Houyan doesn't care about the future Luna Village, how to deal with the potholes left by the excavation project in their cottage square: whether it's backfilling, filling it with water to use it as a swimming pool, or learning how to make pits and kill soldiers— These are all things that Karen Lepage will worry about in the future. All he wants from Xiahou is the ancient secret treasure hidden under the Moon God Village.

As for Messi, the Wraith, obviously coincides with the Lord Lord's focus of attention.

"It's not deep enough." The spherical undead creature hung high above the Moon God Village, overlooking the deep pit dug by the bandits, made a "()" expression, and shouted at Xia Houyan, "According The shards of resentment I have mastered, that treasure should still be hidden in a deeper place!"

"Today is a dead end." Xia Houyan looked at the gradually darkening sky and shook his head regretfully.

——Although these bandits from Luna Village are loyal to Karen Leperg, as long as their female village master gives an order, they will work hard all night without complaint, but the matter is not so urgent after all. , It is indeed time to take a good rest.

Wraith Messi floated down from the sky like a leaking balloon:
"Boss, don't worry, according to today's speed, if the work starts tomorrow morning, it will probably be unearthed before noon."

Xia Houyan nodded solemnly: Whenever he thinks that the current excavation work is preparing for the dragon hunting in a few days, he will always feel a mixture of excitement and fear in his heart.

Like the most dedicated maid, Karen Lepage bowed slightly behind him and said:
"Master, master, the dinner is ready, please have a meal."

"Dinner?" Xia Houyan smiled in surprise, "Your Moon God Village is still so formal?"

A few minutes later, he realized that he had really underestimated this Moon God Village, which was the etiquette tradition of the former Demon Realm aristocratic forces.

The bandits in the Moon God Village did not know that their female village master had become a soul slave who obeyed Xia Houyan's words, but they knew very clearly that their village master had formally surrendered to Shuangfengling and had come from afar The Lord of Shuangfengling can be said to be the immediate boss of the immediate boss.

Therefore, the chefs of the Moon God Village tried their best to prepare a reception banquet for the officials of Xiahou according to the standards of the nobles of the demon clan: Although in the land of cracking souls where supplies are scarce, many ingredients have to be simple, such as using coyotes. Meat is used to replace the Frostwolf meat in "Salt and Pepper Wolf Soup", and cactus and wild wild vegetables are used to replace the seasonal fresh vegetables in "Jasper Chowder". But overall, this dinner table has far exceeded the average level of the wilderness. It's somewhat aristocratic style.

This inevitably made a certain noble lord who was raised by the gourmet food in Xuecheng, but now he can only drink northwest wind in Phoenix Terrace, burst into tears in his heart.

And when the banquet was in full swing, the little bosses of Luna Village, under the arrangement of Karen Leperg, came over one by one to bow and toast to the lord—these people used to be mercenaries of Qiuyue City The leader, the captain of the garrison, and the like, followed Karen to the empire and became a bandit, but now they can be regarded as the lower-level officers of the "Shuangfengling Bandit Suppression Corps".

Different from ordinary bandits who are brutal, bloodthirsty and aggressive, these former professional soldiers with demonic background have fully demonstrated their sense of honor and professionalism: among them are pure-blooded humans, and some are like Karen. He is a mixed race of humans and demons, but he was completely overwhelmed by the skeleton soldier raid. When facing Xia Houyan, the new big boss, his attitude was extremely respectful and humble.

There were even a few half-human-devil girls like Karen in the Moon God Village, who ran to the banquet and performed a very exotic demon dance for the lord, which aroused applause from all the bandits in the audience .

For the bandits of Yueshenzhai who left the Demon Realm and went to other places for many years to fight and kill, this quite aristocratic dinner was also an indulgent opportunity to reminisce about the beautiful past.

In the warm atmosphere, only the wraith Messi floated high in the air, watching Xia Houyan pour down cups of self-brewed spirits from Yueshenzhai with cold eyes, shaking his head and sighing for a while:
It's also fortunate that I'm here to guard the gate, and these mentally handicapped bandits have no other intentions, otherwise, if they really want to poison you, boss, even if you have nine lives, you won't be able to die...

However, Messi is also clear in his heart: the current Luna Village definitely has no intention of harming the boss.

So, the wraith ball rolled its eyes and looked away from the bustling dinner party, looking at the vast starry sky in the land of cracking souls, feeling the ghostly aura emanating from the boss, and fell into meditation.

And in front of the steps of the cave dwelling in the Luna Village below, a certain lord who had seldom indulged once was finally drunk.

Karen Lepage left the leaders to continue the banquet, while she helped the drunk and unconscious master leave the banquet and walked slowly towards the bedroom.

The noisy voices gradually died down. Karen Leperg stood in front of the house, turned her head to look at the lord who was leaning on her shoulder, and said in a low voice through gritted teeth:
"Master... man, heh, I, Karen Lepergue, will call someone else 'Master' one day... If it weren't for that damned necromantic restraint, I really want...I really want to kill you with one knife .”

Xia Houyan muttered drunkenly:

"Kill... me, can... let me go home? Can... let me see my parents?"

Karen was silent for a moment, then pushed open the door, and threw the drunk lord on the bed:
"No. We can't go back."

The village master of the living dead turned around and lit a candle, sat in the armchair in front of the desk, lost himself in thought while looking at the dancing flames.

"Do you miss home too?" Karen murmured to herself, turning her back to the lord on the bed, "You, my 'master', who killed me, deserve a thousand knives Necromancer... you, would you be homesick like me?"

The lord responded with a loud grunt.

Karen snorted coldly, stood up and walked out of the house;

Before going out, she left a sentence:
"Ghost knows how such a cute Katerina got a brother like you..."

On the Phoenix Terrace at the other end of the wilderness, a certain noble lady sneezed for no reason.
