Wang Changming glanced at the fleeing martial artist, but he was not in a hurry to chase after him. Instead, he turned to look at the villagers. The flames that could destroy everything raged. Some children or women with naked bodies hugged the bodies of their fathers or husbands and cried loudly. Some even fainted directly.
An elder walked towards Wang Changming and knelt on the ground."Thank the heavens, thank you for saving my life. How should I address you? We are willing to set up the Longevity Token to worship our benefactor every day to repay the benefactor for saving our lives."
Seeing this, Wang Changming didn't dare to stand there foolishly. He quickly went forward to pull the old man up and said,"Old sir, this junior really doesn't deserve it. It's just a small matter, and it's not worth mentioning. As for the longevity token, don't mention it again. What qualifications does this junior have to accept such a favor?"
"Benefactor, this is a small matter to you, but to us, it's a huge favor."
"How about this, old sir? Let's not talk about this first. Let's see how the others are doing."
"Alright, alright,"
Just like that, they worked until night time. The villagers finally understood that it was useless to be sad anymore. It was better to look forward. There were still houses in the village that had been destroyed by the flames. If they were a little anxious, they could still let the remaining people stay.
After a day of understanding, Wang Changming found out that the village chief was a highly respected old man. However, his wife had passed away more than ten years ago. His only son had led the villagers up the mountain and encountered a legendary magical beast a few years ago. In order to protect the villagers from escaping, he sacrificed himself. Therefore, even though the village chief was now a lonely old man, villagers came to the village chief's house to help every day.
Just as a few strong men who were helping to clean up the house left, three middle-aged women came over and said that they were helping to cook. As soon as they finished speaking, they went to the kitchen to clean up and prepare dinner.
The village chief told Wang Changming that it wasn't usually like this. He only came to help. He probably saw that his benefactor was here and wanted to entertain him. Wang Changming repeatedly said that he didn't dare to accept it. Then, seeing that the village chief was about to open his mouth again, he hurriedly changed the topic and asked about the demonic beasts.
The village chief looked at Wang Changming with a strange gaze, as if he didn't understand why someone as powerful as Wang Changming would ask him a question that everyone on the continent knew.
Wang Changming was a little scared by the village chief's gaze and said awkwardly,"Um, I seem to have lost my memory. I've forgotten everything. Moreover, I just came out of the extremely cold land. Didn't I bump into you guys? Village chief, why don't you introduce me to the magical beasts?"
When the village chief heard Wang Changming say that he had lost his memory, he pretended to be enlightened. He also heard that Wang Changming came from an extremely cold place, and then he remembered the strength that Wang Changming had displayed before. His eyes flashed, and he nodded secretly, as if he had made a decision.
" Magical beast, how should I put it?" The village chief revealed a thoughtful look, as if he was thinking about how to answer Wang Changming.
" Magical beasts are magical and powerful creatures. It's said that they've existed for many years, even longer than humans. Every magical beast knows magical spells. The higher the level of a person, the stronger they are. Legend has it that when a magical beast becomes powerful enough, it can transform into a human form, no different from a human."
" Oh, so that's how it is. It seems like it's similar to the demons in my world," Wang Changming thought to himself."By the way, Village Chief, what level did you say before?？”
Since they had already understood it before, they were no longer surprised when Wang Changming asked this question that everyone knew. They replied,"The ranks are what the continent calls warriors, mages, and some other cultivators. It even includes the realm of mysterious cultivators. Because the various cultivators are not convinced of each other, they have agreed to call each other ranks. Ranks range from the first to the fifth rank, and the fifth rank is also known as the peerless expert.”
Initially, when he heard the village chief's words, he was happy and thought to himself, Yo, this system realm is a little similar to a novel I read, hehe
However, the more Wang Changming listened to the village chief, the calmer his expression became. He was a little wary of the village chief. Even if Wang Changming asked about what the mainland knew, how could a small village chief know so much and be so detailed?
He seemed to have sensed that something was wrong with Wang Changming. At first, he was puzzled, but he immediately understood. He got up and went back to the room to do something.
Seeing this, Wang Changming's body tensed up and he was prepared to deal with any possible trouble. Perhaps some people felt that Wang Changming was making a mountain out of a molehill, but Wang Changming firmly believed that one must be wary of others. He also firmly believed that even a lion would go all out to hunt a rabbit.
However, Wang Changming was immediately discouraged. It turned out that not long after the village chief entered the house, he took out an old book-like thing for Wang Changming to read.
"Village History. The cover of this book says
"This is?" Wang Changming raised his head and looked at the village chief with doubt.
" The answers you want are all in the book," the village chief replied with a smile.
Wang Changming was about to take a look when the food was ready. The village chief said,"Don't look at it first. Eat first and then look at it after you're done.”
Wang Changming glanced at the village chief and put the book aside. He picked up his chopsticks, but because of the abnormal behavior of the village chief, he did not dare to eat. The village chief saw it and could not help but smile helplessly. He started to eat first, and then Wang Changming began to eat. However, Wang Changming basically followed the dishes that Murakami ate.
Because he was thinking about the Village History, he didn't eat much. Although these were delicious, the village chief didn't eat for long because he had something on his mind.
Wang Changming put down his chopsticks and said,"Benefactor, there's something I don't know if I should tell you."
"Village chief, why don't you tell me first?"
" I want to ask our benefactor to help us completely eradicate those bandits," the village chief said as he looked at Wang Changming.
