Chapter 506 Disappear
Chu Xia nodded, leaning her head in Jing Yuan's arms, not talking, but only willing to feel this pleasant and beautiful life, and can't bear to talk anymore, disturbing the tranquility.
Jing Yuan was not talking either, but just hugged Chu Xia silently, put his chin on Chu Xia's head, and looked at the distant sky with a gentle face.
However, this peaceful and comfortable life is always broken by some things. In this way, the good times did not last long, and something that made everyone feel strange happened. Chu Xia and Jing Yuan were confused when they found out.
"What? All the food is gone? The surplus food at home has disappeared? What is going on? Have you found out?"
Jing Yuan and Chu Xia sat on the main hall and heard the ministers' memorials and asked in shock.
"Your Majesty, yes, all the food of the people is gone, there is no trace of disappearing. Now there is no food in the country except the palace. Now the people are hungry." The minister who spoke, I don't know what was going on.
Jing Yuan looked at Chu Xia with surprise and asked, "Xia'er, what do you think of this matter? I feel that this matter is very strange. How could the food disappear overnight?"
Chu Xia also looked surprised and incredible, and replied: "My thoughts are the same as you. This time, I don't know who caused it. Why do everything happen every time for Chen Guo, the answer is obvious, for me!"
"Well, I wonder if it will be the one who caused it again this time. After all, they are the only ones who are so despicable and shameless, and they will attack ordinary people."
"Not necessarily, after all, we have too many enemies. Now Nangong Huo is seen very tightly by the people in the Divine Realm, and the defenders of the world have also strengthened their defenses. It is impossible for their people to easily come to the lower realm. This time it looks a bit like a large-scale action, so I think it is a bit impossible for them!"
After being surprised, Chu Xia began to calm down and analyzed calmly. Jing Yuan nodded and agreed. What Chu Xia said was indeed very reasonable.
"Indeed, I was careless and neglected. I didn't expect this level, but the primary problem now is food. Now the people are hungry. We can open the national warehouse and let the people receive food. We can't let them be hungry!"
Speaking of this, Jing Yuan turned his head and looked at the minister and said, "Go on your best efforts, open the warehouse and release grain, and make sure that all the people have food!"
"Yes!" The ministers who received the task soon disappeared in the hall and went down to open the warehouse and release grain to help the people.
Jing Yuan and Chu Xia were also busy for a day and felt very tired. They quickly went back to rest. After all, it was already midnight now.
Although the warehouse was opened and grain was released, there was not much food in the treasury, and there was so much food in the treasury. After a few days, the food in the treasury was gone, and there was no food in the palace.
Jing Yuan has been investigating this matter, and Chu Xia is also busy practicing because she knows that this matter may be for her, and being able to be such a powerful person is definitely not easy. Chu Xia speculated in her heart that she will have a fierce battle in the near future, so she must hurry up and practice, and it will not be too difficult to deal with.
However, practicing is very physically consuming. For several days, the palace has been out of food. Although those who practice can avoid eating, it is difficult for those who have been practicing.
Nothing could keep up with me, so after a few days, Chu Xia became thinner day by day. Jing Yuan felt very distressed when he saw Chu Xia losing so much in a few days.
"Sorry, Xia'er, you have suffered. My country is so big that there is no food. After checking for a few days, the guards of the inner guards didn't find anything. It seems that we have encountered a strong opponent this time!"
Chu Xia looked at Jing Yuan with a guilty look on his face, then hugged Jing Yuan's arm and said, "Oh! Isn't it better to lose weight? What's more, I think this time the incident was for me, or I have implicated you, which makes the people of Chen Kingdom hungry!"
Jing Yuan shook his head and said, "Forget it, the people of Chen Country will not blame you, let alone we don't know why things have become like this. Don't think too much about it. Let's discuss it first and see how these foods disappeared!"
"Yes, there are indeed many strange things about this matter. How could so much food disappear overnight? It is still possible that experts like us will do such actions without the knowledge of the Baixi people. But I would not believe so many people with so many masters!"
"I also feel that the food has disappeared too strangely. Since it is not, would people say it be a monster? But low-level monsters are not intelligent and their movements are not so light. It seems that it is unlikely that the monsters do it!"
"Yes, and how could there be so many monsters in the city? It seems that it is difficult to solve this problem!"
"I don't know what to do. I have sent out the master guards of the inner city to investigate this matter, but they have not found anything strange and found nothing!" Jing Yuan said very seriously.
Jing Yuan thought of the hungry people and Chu Xia who was getting thinner in front of him. The expression on his face was very ugly. Chu Xia also guessed what Jing Yuan was thinking and said, "Ah Yuan, listen to me!"
"No news does not mean it is bad news. This matter is very strange. The master of the big guard cannot find out this result, should it be as expected that it is not?"
"Yes, I also guessed that what they found would be the result, but when they found out, they still felt a little nervous. If this continues, the people will probably starve to death! Alas!" Jing Yuan looked decadent and tired.
Chu Xia looked very distressed and said, "You are the king of a country. It is not convenient for you to investigate this matter. Now the masters of the big country cannot investigate it. Leave it to me all the matter, I'll go and investigate it."
"No, this time the matter is too dangerous, you can't go, just like you said, what if they really come for you? Then I'm not by your side, you will definitely be hurt!"
When Jing Yuan heard that Chu Xia was going to investigate the matter in person, he was very opposed to it. He was afraid that something might happen to Chu Xia.
"Ah Yuan, listen to me, it's okay. As the king of a country, you must stabilize the hearts of the people and the morale of the army. You can't watch the people of a country starve to death, right? Don't worry, I will protect myself and not hurt myself!"
Finally, after Chu Xia's swearing, Jing Yuan finally nodded and agreed to Chu Xia to investigate the matter, but the prerequisite was that Chu Xia would protect himself and not let him be injured, and Chu Xia promised!
When Chu Xia left the palace, he saw a commoner, and walked up to him and asked, "Hello, I want to ask, have your food disappeared overnight?"
"Girl, how is this possible? Our food is all batched and disappeared overnight. Otherwise, they would not have so many people to talk about our food!" The people replied with a smile.
"Then, have you ever felt something wrong before that happened, or something strange happened to grain, or something like that!" Chu Xia asked tentatively again.
The people replied: "No, nothing strange happened, it just happened suddenly, and disappeared overnight. When we went to collect some food the next day, we found that all the food had been harvested and nothing was left!"
"Thank you!" Chu Xia asked several people in a row but found nothing. She couldn't help but feel a little hit, but she immediately cheered up and continued to look for clues.
She didn't believe that so much food would disappear overnight. It was impossible that no clue would be left behind. There would definitely be some clues, but she hadn't discovered it yet.
On the other side of the divine realm, Nangong Huo calmly picked up a cup of tea, drank it, looked at Mei Niang and said, "How is the matter doing?"
Mei Niang knelt down and clasped her fists, and said respectfully to Nangong Huo: "Report to Master, the matter is still going well at present. No one found it, and even Jing Yuan and Chu Xia did not find any clues!"
Hearing Mei Niang's words, Nangong Huo looked at Mei Niang with a smile and said, "Yes, you did a very good job in this mission, and I didn't disappoint me. By the way, where are the food you harvested? It's not placed in Chen Country, right?"
Mei Niang replied: "I dare not. If it is placed in Chen Kingdom, Chu Xia and the others will definitely find it. The subordinates put it into the space ring, and no one can find it!"
Now, Nangong Huo was even more satisfied with Mei Niang's approach. He stood up and smiled and helped Mei Niang up on the ground.
Mei Niang was flattered and her face turned red. The master was so kind to me, and I must complete all the tasks assigned by my master, including killing Chuxia. I can make my master disappointed me.
"Okay, Mei Niang, you go down first. Su Xiqu is waiting for you outside. Go and see what's wrong!" Nangong Huo Zhe said happily.
Mei Niang took her leave, looking surprised and panic-looking and a little shy. Seeing Mei Niang's expression, Su Xiqu quipped, "What's wrong with this sir? Why did she come out of the hall with a shy look on her face?"
"Can you and your master make some ulterior motives in it? Look, you are shy! It makes people think a lot!"
"Shut up, what are you talking nonsense! It's okay if you make a joke about me, but you dare to make a joke about your master. I'll spare you this time. If there is another time, I will definitely be severely punished!" Mei Niang replied with a blushing face.
Su Xiqu nodded tactfully. Mei Niang was very satisfied, and her tone was full of tenderness: "Just just now, the master said that you were waiting for me outside and you had something to ask me for. Is there anything wrong with me?"
