In a small town in the southeast of China, the town was doing publicity work to encourage everyone to seek refuge in the Land of Heritage.
"Listen up, everyone. This is the order from above. You'll be safe in the arcane realm, and no one will care if you stay outside … You'll get a job in the arcane realm, but you'll lose your job if you stay outside." The mobile publicity vehicle ran back and forth on a short main street in the town.
There was a coal mine nearby. Due to the exhaustion of the mine and the collapse of the ground, most of the people had moved to the concentrated development area in the town. They gave up farming and changed to other occupations, such as opening restaurants or doing transportation. Young people went to school or stayed in other places to work …
This also made the publicity work more convenient. They did not have to spend most of their time on the road to the village like before.
Due to coal mining, the former villages and land had collapsed and turned into large swamps.
Part of it had been transformed into fish ponds and contracted to fishermen. The other part had become a local tourist attraction for the townspeople and citizens to spend their weekends.
Although the townspeople had a hard life, it was still comfortable.
Even with the start of the Shenyuan era, due to the Dragon God in the sky and the remoteness of the place, there were no demons or ghosts. The townspeople's understanding of demons and devils came from the Internet and some TV adventure programs.
The publicity vehicle did not go to waste. Most of the townspeople had chosen to follow the long relocation team to the provincial capital. There was a special organization there to arrange for them to take a bus to the north to enter the arcane realm.
All the real estate that could not be moved would have a simple estimate and be converted into a sum of living funds for them as the foundation for survival in the arcane realm.
As for their bank deposits, they would be counted and added to the distributed living funds.
If not for this, it would be difficult for many people to abandon their houses and properties that could only be accumulated by six generations and run away from home.
According to the publicity vehicle, the prices in the arcane realm were the same as those outside.
Food was still at the original price of one yuan per catty of rice and ten yuan per catty of pork. Of course, the price fluctuated, but it was just a general description.
For the people of China, as long as there was food, most people would feel at ease.
However, there were still some people in the town who did not want to leave their homeland. They were mainly some very old people, and some children who did not want to abandon them.
They did not want to enter the arcane realm to survive. They just wanted to die in the familiar land.
Before the final moment arrived, these people would not make a move.
In a fish pond outside the town, an old man was looking at the fish pond. No one remembered his name, unless they checked his identity card or household register.
Everyone only knew that his surname was Wang and called him Uncle Wang.
Uncle Wang was in his seventies and was a lonely old man.
It wasn't that he didn't want to enter the arcane realm, but he wanted to wait until he harvested this year's fish before leaving.
After all, this pond of fish could be sold for tens of thousands of yuan, and he was reluctant to part with it. After all, many old people were unwilling to throw away even a bowl of leftover rice, let alone tens of thousands of yuan worth of fish that were about to be harvested.
In any case, he hadn't encountered any problems in the past few years. It wouldn't be a problem to drag on for another ten days or half a month.
With this kind of wishful thinking, he still came to the fish pond every day to prevent some small demons with intelligence, such as a certain clever crow, from stealing the fish and eating them.
This guy has already learned how to fish. Can you believe it? A crow actually knew how to fish.
As for demons that dared to eat humans, of course, they did not exist. They had long been taken away by the divine dragons in the sky.
Regarding this, Master Wang was very grateful. He would always offer incense to Sir Dragon God during the festive season …
It would be great if he could take that crow away as well.
Today, Master Wang looked at the few crude fishing nets that appeared in the center of the fish pond and thought gloomily.
This fishing net was obviously not made by humans. Those who stole the fish would not use such an inefficient broken net.
"Caw caw … Geezer Wang, aren't you going to scram? Everyone else has left. Be careful that you don't get dragged away and eaten by some monster today! "
At this moment, a black crow flew in from the sky. It first landed on the broken fishing net, picked up a small fish hanging on it, and swallowed it. Then, it flew to Master Wang's head and clamored.
"Damn you, sooner or later, you'll be taken away by the divine dragons." Master Wang's body was weak, and the people also prohibited the possession of bird-hunting weapons. He could not do anything to this newborn little demon, so he could only curse angrily.
"Caw caw caw, he doesn't like little demons like me. Anyway, I don't eat humans, I'm just eating some small fish and shrimp. What's there to be afraid of? Besides, although you're the one who contracted the fish, the water isn't yours. Why are you the only ones who can raise fish? I also know how to raise fish, "the crow said confidently.
While the man and the bird were cursing at each other, a lot of big bubbles suddenly appeared in the fish pond.
"Caw caw caw, the monster is coming!" The crow was bold by nature. It was a weirdo who even dared to peck a cat's butt. Seeing this, it just flew higher and then gloated.
Master Wang immediately stepped back and picked up the harpoon beside him.
He wanted to run away, but he could not run. He could only hope that it would be like one day in the past, when a dragon flew in the sky and the man-eating monster was taken away.
However, this time, the dragon came a little slower.
In the pond, a long monster suddenly emerged. Its body was very long. Not counting the part in the water, just the part that was exposed was more than four or five meters long. It had a sharp and thin head, but it did not have a face. It looked a little strange.
Master Wang was so scared that his legs turned to jelly. He had seen the monster once before, but the last time he fainted …
When he woke up, he found that the divine dragon had descended from the sky and killed the monster.
He did not know if he would be so lucky this time.
After the monster came out, it did not attack him immediately.
A voice came from the long worm without a face.
"Surrender to the Great Shadow King, and you will be pardoned!"
Master Wang subconsciously looked up at the sky and did not see any sign of the divine dragon flying over.
He slowly moved backward.
"Stupid human, the Shadow Earth Dragon gave you a chance, but you did not cherish it." The long worm suddenly jumped out of the water and hit the staggering Master Wang.
Master Wang had only seen how to avoid monster attacks on TV. How could he use it?
He had experienced it once, but it was useless.
At this moment, the crow suddenly swooped down.
It pecked somewhere on the long worm and then flew away quickly.
The long worm seemed to have suffered a fatal blow and retreated into the water at a faster speed.
"Just a mutated earthworm monster. Do you think Master Crow will be afraid of you?" The crow said proudly as it flapped its wings, and then wondered, "But it's quite strange. Earthworms can't live in the water, can they?"
Master Wang took this opportunity to quickly escape from the pond and rode on his electric tricycle.
"Thank you, crow. I'll treat you to a big fish next time." He said as he started the tricycle.
"If you really want to thank me, then get out of here and let me take over the fish pond!" The crow did not appreciate it at all and called out arrogantly.
This time, Master Wang did not argue with the other party and was about to ride away.
At this moment, a person suddenly fell from the sky.
"It's Lord Dragon God!" Master Wang saw it and quickly stopped the electric tricycle and came over to salute.
"There was a monster that appeared just now. What did it say?" Vigilante A asked lightly.
Old Man Wang hurriedly and respectfully recounted everything that had happened before.
He knew that the Dragon God had Wisdom Eyes. It was said that it could see what happened on the ground from thousands of miles away.
"Shadow King?" Vigilante A nodded, then said to the crow in the sky, "Why did you save him just now?"
"Do I need a reason to save him? This old man has been raising fish for me for four years. I can't just watch him die, can I? Anyway, that earthworm monster looks strong on the outside but weak on the inside. It looks big, but other than bumping into people, it can't do anything to me because I can fly. "The crow flapped its wings and said proudly.
"It's rare that you're such a kind-hearted bird. Here's a letter of recommendation. You can become a disciple of Sky Eagle and learn some bird-type cultivation techniques from him. "As Vigilante A spoke, he tossed a piece of paper to the crow.
The crow caught the letter in its beak and quickly thanked him, "Thank you, Lord Dragon God."
This was a rare opportunity. Although it appeared to be very arrogant, it knew in its heart that if it could become the disciple of the current leader of the bird race, its future would be smooth. It might even be able to become the "King of Crows".
Now that humans had withdrawn from Earth, it was conceivable that this land would be filled with demons and insects. There would be many opportunities. As the smartest crow, it must seize this opportunity.
