"return?"
A normal person would be frightened by such a scene, but Jimo was attracted by the eyes and words. A glimmer of hope lit up in his originally downcast eyes.
"I think, I think."
Without any hesitation, Jimo answered in the affirmative.
"I can help you find your parents." Having captured Jimo's mind, Taotie was no longer anxious: "But, I need you to do something for me, are you willing?"
"I am willing." Jimo affirmed again, "What do you need me to do?"
"Like this..." Taotie waved to Jimo, and the whisper in his ear sounded like the voice of a demon.
As they were talking, when they arrived in the room, Taotie suddenly opened his big mouth and bit Jimo's head.
After struggling, Taotie opened his mouth again. Jimo's head was intact, but the light in his eyes had disappeared.
"City Lord, I want to find the City Lord."
When he spoke again, Jimo was just like those people, repeating the same sentence over and over again.
"Go." Taotie let go of Jimo, and Jimo just walked out with empty eyes.
In his mouth, he kept repeating the sentence "I want to find the city lord."
"The soul of a child is so sweet." In the room, Taotie watched Jimo gradually walk away, and slowly, greed surfaced.
"Eating this city will restore a lot of my strength."
"Qiongqi, kill me, when I recover, I will eat you all!!!"
…
"City Lord, I want to find the City Lord."
In the evening, when Jimo returned to the city gate, a group of soldiers discovered something unusual.
His eyes were dull, his limbs were stiff, like a puppet, and he kept mumbling the same sentence.
"What's the matter with you, little Jimo." The team leader held Jimo down. He had more knowledge and felt something was wrong: "Are you possessed?"
"City Lord..." Jimo's response was still empty and repetitive.
"What are you going to do with the city lord?" The team leader was also confused, while others around him felt something was wrong: "Did that person just do it?"
"That man is just an ordinary person, with no cultivation at all." The team leader shook his head, looking at Jimo's appearance, he felt a little distressed.
This little guy fled all the way. At the beginning, his spirit was a little abnormal. What happened today?
"I'll take you to find the city lord." After a little hesitation, the team leader finally made up his mind, "You guys help me look after this place while I go."
"Go quickly, captain." Several other people also knew that Jimo was a poor man and agreed one after another.
"Hey, Captain, wait, someone is coming outside again!"
The team leader was about to take Jimo away, but the person in charge of watching quickly waved.
"Is there someone else coming?" The team leader stopped and stepped forward to take a look. Sure enough, in his sight, a young man in black was walking towards the city.
The captain frowned, and soon the young man came to the city. He didn't open the door again, but asked first: "Where are you from?"
"Food City." The young man looked up and answered simply.
“It’s Food City again??”
This time, no matter how nervous Captain Ren was, he noticed something was wrong.
"Are you here as a refugee too?"
"Yes?" Downstairs, listening to these words, the young man smiled and said, "Yes."
"How is it possible..." The captain was pounding in his heart, not knowing what to do. Suddenly, the person beside him excitedly grabbed his arm.
"Ye Fan! He is Ye Fan!"
"Ye Fan?" These words made the team leader stunned, and he subconsciously wanted to ask back. Then, a flash of lightning flashed in his mind: "That...the grandson of King Zhan Tian?"
"Yes, that's him!" the soldier next to him replied: "I used to give him military merit in Storm City!"
"Why is the grandson of King Zhan Tian on the front line?" The team leader had doubts in his heart, but after learning Ye Fan's identity, most of his vigilance was removed.
"Open the door."
The city gate opened, and the squad leader personally stood guard at the gate.
"Today is really weird. There was only one in the morning..." Looking at Ye Fan, the team leader was about to speak, but Ye Fan locked his eyes on Jimo beside him, and then a cold light flashed.
"What's wrong?" The team leader felt something was wrong.
"A ferocious beast has just entered your city." Ye Fan said, and at the same time, he propped up a sound barrier, "I came here just to chase it."
"A ferocious beast?" These words made the captain feel a little frightened. Subconsciously, thinking of the person before, his expression changed, "Then Jimo..."
"His soul was eaten by the ferocious beast, leaving only one soul that retained his instincts." Ye Fan replied coldly: "Before this, it had eaten up the souls of everyone in Shicheng, leaving them with their instincts." Cook for him until he eats you as his meal.”
"This, this." A few words were enough to stir up a storm in the captain's heart.
"What little Jimo said turned out to be true." After realizing it, he was replaced by endless regret. The team leader hugged Jimo beside him: "Little Jimo, how could I send you to lead the way..."
"It's too late to regret now. We need to take measures to stop it from eating more people." Ye Fan lowered his voice: "You need to stay calm and cooperate with me."
"I will definitely cooperate." The team leader nodded quickly, "What do you need from me?"
"Don't spread the news about my coming to the city yet." Ye Fan quickly arranged: "In addition, I need to see your city lord, open the protection of the entire city, and impose restrictions as I said."
"That beast is extremely cunning. It will escape if we are not careful. This time, I need you to cooperate with me."
"No problem. I will go to the city lord and take you to see him." The captain agreed repeatedly. The situation was urgent, and he was even more angry and sad. "This time, the damn beast must have no way to escape."
Click, click.
"Ye Fan." After taking a few steps, a gap flashed in his heart. The captain stopped and said, "Do you have anything to prove your identity?"
Undoubtedly, the captain was a little scared in the current situation.
The man who was powerless just now was a beast. If the Ye Fan in front of him was also fake...
"I have it." Ye Fan saw the doubts in the captain's heart, nodded, and took out two tokens.
"Here are two tokens, one for me to be appointed as the Lord of Kuanglei City, and one for me to be given a title by the court."
"Title?" Holding the two tokens in his hands, the captain looked at the token with the words "King Ye" engraved on it, and a look of surprise appeared on his face: "You, were given a title of king?"
"Yes." Ye Fan nodded, "Give all the tokens to the Lord of the City about the inland affairs, he should know about it."
"...Okay." Although he was still surprised, in the end, the captain just nodded heavily.
Ye Fan was a man who was given a title of king, which undoubtedly gave him a shot of adrenaline.
"This Taotie is really stubborn." The captain left quickly, while Ye Fan stood there, looking at Jimo, who had lost his soul, with a somewhat cold tone.
"Such a fierce beast is placed on the front line, and the people behind it should be killed!"
