Without waiting for more people to go up and try, the king’s knights and guards rushed over and immediately surrounded them. They didn’t allow anyone to get close, but they didn’t chase them away either.

The citizens stood on tiptoes to watch from the outside, their eyes filled with joy and worship.

They had never seen such a large amount of food before. It was even larger than the entire capital combined.

The people who were originally suspicious of the so-called archaic god were now rapidly changing. The power of faith that was originally not much was now increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye. They acknowledged it from the bottom of their hearts.

One by one, they began to become devout believers, their bodies surging with an enormous amount of power of faith.

After this baptism, they would definitely spread even more widely. There would be another increase in power after this. This was caused by the display of a divine miracle.

Compared to word of mouth, there was nothing more reliable than the truth.

After the Knights surrounded them, Li Yu rushed to the scene with his officials and generals. They looked at the ocean of rice grains. Just the natural flow had flattened a few nearby mountains. They couldn’t describe the feelings deep in their hearts at this moment.

Even though Li Yu had seen the scene of an archaic God attacking once, he was still so excited that he couldn’t control himself.

This scene was beyond everyone’s imagination.

With the food in front of them, they would be able to last until next year. After the natural disaster passed, everything would be rebuilt, and the internal turmoil would also subside on its own.

Before the food was used up, the Bauhinia Kingdom would remain stable and unshakable.

“Your Majesty, there is hope. With this vast sea of rice, it will probably be enough for the entire Bauhinia kingdom to eat for several years.” An internal affairs official was extremely excited.

Any natural disaster and famine turned into nothingness in front of this sea of rice.

“Not only that, these rice grains seem to be filled with abundant energy, far surpassing ordinary rice. When our warriors consume these rice grains, they can quickly replenish the energy and blood in their bodies and quickly increase their cultivation.”

The commander of the Knights watched closely. After carefully comprehending the situation, he rushed forward to report.

One had to know that once one became a warrior, their food intake would greatly increase. Self-cultivation would not be able to satisfy their food needs. Eating ten cows a day was a normal consumption. It was nothing at all.

It was also because of this that the Warriors’ food intake was too shocking. Many places became poor because of the warriors’ appetite.

However, it was impossible not to nurture the warriors. They were an important force in defending the kingdom.

However, if there was such amazing rice, martial artists would only need to eat a little bit to be full. That would save a lot of ordinary food for the people.

“There’s such a change?” A general was shocked and went forward to sense.

“As expected of the rice given by the god. The god is too generous.”

“I didn’t expect that we would have the chance to taste a god’s rice. How fortunate.”

“The smell of the divine rice is too good. I can’t help but want to cultivate when I smell it. I feel a few years younger.”

“This is all thanks to His Majesty the King. Without His Majesty the King, the situation today would not have been possible.”

The officials and generals were very excited and began to discuss in private.

Li Yu quickly adjusted himself and waved to the commander of the Knights. He ordered, “Alright, this time, the news of the food given by the god is not allowed to be spread. Leader of the Knights, keep all the civilians that you see here and guard them together. Dispatch the troops to move these divine rice away and put them into the Royal Warehouse.”

“The strength of the guards has been increased to the maximum recently. Do not let others take it away.”

“Yes, sir.” The leader of the Knights knelt on one knee and accepted the order.

When the other members of the Knights saw this, half of them were guarding the rice, while the other half were guarding outside to prevent anyone from escaping.

Li Yu led the officials to watch from a high point. Finally, they climbed up the city wall to take a look, but they still could not see the edge of the rice sea.

At this moment, his faith in the ancient gods had become even deeper.

The methods of the ancient gods were simply unfathomable and unimaginable. Not only did they have the power to destroy kingdoms, but they also had the great power to protect all living things. With a flip of their hands, they could turn the clouds and rain.

After opening the rice bag, Luochuan saw that Li Yu and the others were still in a state of shock. They were dealing with all sorts of matters in an orderly manner.

He relaxed and returned along the way.

After returning to the castle, Luochuan looked at the wooden door behind him. It was the same as the first time he saw it. It didn’t change at all. It looked like a simple door, but after opening it, he saw another mysterious world.

“I didn’t try to move it before, but I’ll try it now. Maybe it’ll work.”

Luochuan closed the door and hesitated for a while before he finally decided to start.

It was not safe to leave it there. Even if he moved into the castle, he would have to go out at some point. It was not safe to hide in the castle.

He first went to the first floor of the castle to take a look. The cleaners had finished cleaning and he had to go back. Luochuan would settle the bill with the cleaning company.

There were no pedestrians around. If he made any noise later, he would be able to fool them with a simple excuse.

Luochuan ran back to the castle and came before the wooden door. He took a deep breath, held the two sides of the wooden door, and lifted it.

“Chi.” 

An inexplicable sound was heard. The wooden door was lifted, and its surface looked like an ordinary wooden door.

Luochuan could clearly see that the surface of the door was glowing with a dull wooden texture.

It was as if the door had been weathered for hundreds of years.

After putting the door down, it immediately returned to its original state.

“What’s the reason? It can’t be moved, or is it because my method is wrong and I can’t move it directly?”

Luochuan frowned slightly as he looked at the door in front of him.

At this moment, the voice of the Book of Wisdom sounded, “Master, I sensed it just now. This wooden door can be moved using the method you used just now. It has only lost its luster. It probably changed because it wasn’t standing on the ground.”

“After it is lifted, it will lose its function. But after it is standing on the ground, it can quickly recover.”

“Is that so?”

Luochuan was a little uncertain. He tried to lift the wooden door, but it quickly lost its luster. After waiting for about five minutes, it was put down and returned to its original state.

“I see. In that case, I can design an empty door. It needs to be removed again.”

“If the others see a door that has no luster, they probably won’t be in the mood to steal.”

Luochuan rolled his eyes and quickly came up with a plan.

He could call someone to clean the room, but Luochuan had to deal with the door himself.
