The Crescent Spring Town looked the same as before, but in Craneshi's eyes, it was different.
"No, if you look carefully, you will find that there is something different. The barrier between the half-beastmen and humans here has disappeared. There are many humans walking on the streets, and even the nearby residences have been moved in by a large number of humans. "Craneshi had never seen any place in the Eight Wastelands where humans and half-beastmen could live in harmony.
Craneshi frowned.
Could it be that the people of the Crescent Spring Town were not worried at all that Cang Du would send people to attack the Crescent Spring Town?
And that human who killed Hu Yixue, how could there be nothing strange?
Craneshi had been a military adviser for several years, but he had never encountered such strange people and things.
At this time, there was an uproar at the entrance of the town. A human elder who looked to be of virtue and prestige posted an announcement on the bulletin board at the entrance of the town.
As soon as the announcement was posted, there were many people surrounding it.
"Lord Yun has issued a new decree again."
"What new decree is it this time?"
The humans and half-beastmen in the town swarmed up. Craneshi and a few half-beastmen exchanged glances, lowered their heads, and approached the bulletin board. They also wanted to see what tricks that human was playing.
The announcement that had just been announced listed several new policies, and the ink had not dried yet.
Craneshi glanced at it and saw a few government decrees on the announcement.
"From today onwards, all residents of the Crescent Spring Town can go to the Mayor's Mansion to receive a share of Crescent Well water every month according to the number of households."
"The town encourages land reclamation. The children of those who can reclaim land in the town can enter the town's school and martial arts school for free to study and learn martial arts."
"Abolish all systems related to slaves."
"Humans and half-beastmen are strictly prohibited from fighting in private."
"Marriage between half-beastmen and humans is encouraged."
On a notice, there were nearly ten government decrees listed in great length.
The more He Si read, the more shocked he was. It was not only because these government decrees had never been heard of in the Eight Wastelands Continent, but also because these decrees were challenging the entire system of the Eight Wastelands Continent.
"Your Excellency, is the mayor of the Human Clan crazy? All of these decrees are against the rules of the Heavenly Fox Tribe." The warriors of Cangdu Tribe sighed inwardly when they saw this.
He actually dared to announce such a decree.
"Although it's against the rules of the Celestial Fox Tribal Nation, it has won the hearts of the people." Craneshi withdrew his gaze and observed the reactions of the humans and half-orcs after reading the decree.
Whether it was the orcs or the half-orcs, after seeing the new government order, they all had faces full of joy. They rushed over, and some people even began to discuss, informing their friends and relatives in the neighboring towns to let them move to Crescent Spring Town as well.
A smart ruler knew how to win the hearts of the people.
Regardless of the strength of this human who had seized the Crescent Moon Spring Town, the new decree that she had promulgated was undoubtedly deeply popular.
Craneshi assisted Hu Yue, and most of the decrees in Cangdu came from Craneshi. He was very clear that these decrees of Crescent Spring Town might not be enough, but if they were implemented for a long time, it would definitely form a prairie fire in the Celestial Fox Tribal Nation, and eventually affect the entire Celestial Fox Tribal Nation.
More and more humans and half-orcs would respond to Crescent Spring Town's actions.
"Sir, what should we do?" It was the first time the soldiers of Cangdu Country saw Lord Craneshi reveal such a solemn expression.
"End the battle quickly. Before the decrees truly take effect, kill all the humans and half-orcs who have already been affected." A hint of ruthlessness that did not match his temperament flashed across Craneshi's handsome face.
Three days later, around midnight.
Craneshi brought the soldiers of Cangdu Country and rushed to the mayor's residence.
Inside the residence, it was pitch-black. It was a night without stars, and the entire mayor's residence was silent.
"Lord Craneshi, according to your orders, the water in the mayor's residence has been poisoned. I have found out that the people in the mayor's residence have been poisoned."
"Break the door!" With Craneshi's order, dozens of soldiers of Cangdu Country pounced on the mayor's residence like hungry wolves.
The door opened with a bang, and in the courtyard, there was only a dim illumination magic array shining with light.
"Immediately search for the whereabouts of the human mayor, and capture him alive." Craneshi ordered.
The soldiers received the order and quickly rushed into the room to search.
Time passed by minute by minute, and Craneshi was waiting for a reply.
Thud, thud, thud. The soldiers rushed out, their faces full of strangeness.
"Sir, people, they're all gone!"
In the entire mayor's residence, inside and outside, there was not a single living person. Those who had been poisoned earlier were like snow under the sun, disappearing without a trace.
Craneshi's forehead suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
He suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Bang!
The door behind him suddenly closed.
The dull sound made Craneshi and a group of warriors turn their heads.
The courtyard suddenly lit up, and a crisp and pleasant voice, accompanied by a tall and straight figure, seemed to float down from the sky.
"A distinguished guest has arrived, Yun Sheng has been waiting for you here for a long time."
It was a young woman dressed in a female magician's robe, who suddenly appeared in the courtyard that was originally empty.
She sat in front of a table, and there was a zither placed on the table.
The woman's appearance was as bright as the bright moon in the sky. Her bright eyes were smiling, and she nodded at Craneshi.
"You're the new mayor of Crescent Spring Town, the female magician who killed Hu Yixue. Those government decrees in the town were also issued by you?" Craneshi did not expect that this seemingly weak and slender woman was actually the rumored female devil who killed without spilling blood.
"Lord Craneshi, you're too polite. I'm not a mayor, but a passerby who happened to pass by Crescent Spring Town. I saw injustice on the road and helped my fellow humans." Yun Sheng's fingertips gently plucked on the strings of the zither.
On the zither, the sound of the zither was melodious. Looking at Yun Sheng's expression, it was even more leisurely.
The more she was like this, the more nervous those soldiers of Cangdu looked.
They had now discovered that tonight, they had fallen into this woman's trap.
However, this woman actually dared to come alone, and even had the leisure to play the zither here. Did she really think that with her strength alone, she could repel so many experts from Cangdu?
"What a good help, what you've done has already committed a capital offense." Craneshi's gaze sharpened, and the soldiers beside him were all ready to shoot like arrows.
"Slow down, everyone who comes is a guest. Before fighting, it's better to listen to Yun Sheng play a song. If after this song, you still want to fight, Yun Sheng will definitely accompany you to the end." Yun Sheng's eyes flashed with a cunning light. Under her hand, her fingertips moved, and the sound of the zither poured out like flowing water.
