Exile: Empty half of the capital and blow up the enemy's palace

Chapter 268 This is a loudspeaker

Yun Qingqing said, "I'll go after the New Year."

Upon hearing this, Xu Ji laughed and said, "Alright, it's settled then."

After descending the mountain, Yun Chengxiao and Yun Chengxi were responsible for escorting the girls home.

Yun Qingqing, along with Xu Ji, Yun Chenghao, and Yun Chengying, escorted the unconscious Taoist Lingyun and the bandit leader to Lotus Village.

There was no one guarding the entrance to Lotus Village at this moment, and Yun Qingqing and her group entered the village without any hindrance, heading straight for the open space in the center of the village, where the people of Lotus Village were all praying for blessings.

Upon arriving at the square, we saw several bonfires burning in the center, and villagers kneeling on the ground, chanting prayers in a foreign language.

Seeing this, Xu Ji took out a megaphone from his spatial storage and shouted at the villagers, "Shut up! Stop reading!"

The loud voice immediately drowned out all the prayers, and the villagers stopped, their faces grim as they looked in Xu Ji's direction.

Someone shouted angrily, "Where did this brat come from! Daring to disturb our blessing ceremony!"

Several young villagers stood up menacingly, ready to teach Xu Ji a lesson.

Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted, "Master Lingyun! These people have captured Master Lingyun!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed drastically. They all stood up from the ground, glaring at Yun Qingqing and her group with a mixture of shock and anger.

Someone demanded sharply, "Who are you? Why are you arresting Daoist Lingyun!"

Someone cried out in alarm, "Master Lingyun is the messenger of the Mountain God! If you arrest him, the Mountain God will be angry and bring disaster upon us!"

These words caused widespread panic. The villagers were both afraid and angry, and they shouted at the top of their lungs:

"Release the Taoist priest at once!"

"What if the mountain god gets angry?!"

"These people are going to kill our whole village!"

The scene was chaotic.

Someone shouted, "Everyone, charge! Kill these people! Save Master Lingyun!"

Several impulsive villagers grabbed their farm tools and were about to rush up to confront Yun Qingqing and her group.

Xu Ji shouted through a megaphone, "Quiet down, everyone! If anyone moves again, I'll kill this old Taoist priest on the spot!"

As he spoke, he held the knife to Master Lingyun's neck, and the villagers were so frightened that they dared not move.

Master Lingyun is the messenger of the Mountain God. If Master Lingyun dies in their village, the Mountain God will surely take his anger out on their village.

Yun Chengying stared at the megaphone in Xu Ji's hand with shining eyes and asked curiously, "Brother Xu, what kind of magic weapon is this? The sound is so loud!"

This was the first time he had ever seen an object that could amplify sound.

Yun Chenghao stared at the megaphone in Xu Ji's hand with great curiosity. What kind of treasure was this? How could it make the sound so loud!

Xu Ji laughed and said, "This is just a loudspeaker; it can amplify the sound, but it's nothing special."

Yun Chengying asked eagerly, "Can I try this?"

Xu Ji smiled and nodded, "Okay."

As he spoke, he handed the megaphone to Yun Chengying to play with. Yun Chengying curiously shouted "Hello" into the megaphone, and a deafening "Hello—" came out from the megaphone.

Yun Chengying laughed and said, "This loudspeaker is really interesting!"

Xu Ji smiled and said, "You like it? Then I'll give it to you."

Yun Chengying's eyes widened in surprise: "Really?"

Xu Ji smiled and nodded: "Really."

Yun Chengying said happily, "Thank you, Brother Xu!"

He was overjoyed, as if he had found a precious treasure, and hugged the megaphone to his chest.

Xu Ji waved his hand and said, "No need to thank me, it's just a worthless little trinket."

Seeing how happy Yun Chengying was, he thought to himself: These ancient people really have never seen the world. They treat an ordinary megaphone as a treasure.

Yun Qingqing coughed lightly and said, "Xu Ji, Eighth Brother, you two stop chatting and explain the situation to these villagers first."
