Shao Yun was not joking, because his hand was already on the cowboy revolver at his waist.

Seeing Shao Yun's actions, Nashida was startled. Her face instantly became a little flustered. She quickly changed the topic and said, "I'm sorry, my words just now were a little inappropriate and offended you... How about we talk about it..."

However, before Nashida could finish her words, she was interrupted by a sudden knock on the door.

At this moment, the girls who were originally sitting together happily enjoying the delicious midnight snack, without exception, suddenly shuddered and the smiles on their faces froze instantly.

Their eyes were all directed towards the tightly closed door, their expressions full of vigilance.

"Could it be that those guys from the Ministry of Education discovered that Lord Grass God is missing, so they are checking every household like this?" Dina Zedai said in a low voice.

The other girls nodded in agreement with this speculation, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became extremely tense.

Nashida did not dare to be careless at all. She quickly glanced at the door of the room, then dived into the big gift box and imitated Qi Liangliang.

However, unlike the real "box cat" Qiliangliang, Nashida hiding in the box at this moment looks more like a "box tree"?

Ying, who was standing by, was startled when she saw Nashida hiding. Then she took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to ask at the door, "Who is it?"

The person outside the door heard the voice coming from the house, and was obviously relieved, and then responded: "It's me, Lisa, there's something urgent, if you are still awake."

When they heard that the person standing at the door was Lisa, the girls who had been tense and nervous just now all relaxed at once.

Even Paimon, who had been on tenterhooks, couldn't help but pat his chest and whispered, "It turned out to be Lisa. I was so scared! But what could be the important matter that she suddenly came to see us in the middle of the night?"

Shao Yun was not going to slack off so easily. He quickly stood up from his chair, then reached out and pulled out a cowboy revolver and walked towards the window.

As he approached the window, he squinted his eyes slightly and looked out through it.

With the help of the light from the street lamp outside, he first took a quick glance at the environment outside the house, and then focused his attention on the person standing at the door.

The person standing at the door is really Lisa, not an imposter!

"Really Lisa?"

Shao Yun wondered why she suddenly appeared at his doorstep in the middle of the night.

However, to be cautious, Shao Yun did not open the door to welcome Lisa immediately, but continued to observe the surroundings to determine whether there were any other uninvited guests besides Lisa.

After repeatedly confirming that there was nothing unusual around him, Shao Yun walked to the door and opened it.

Lisa, who was standing outside the door, was visibly relieved to see that Shao Yun was still conscious.

She said with relief, "Thank God you're still awake."

Shao Yun looked at Lisa who appeared at his door in the middle of the night and asked, "Why are you coming to my house at this time?"

Facing Shao Yun's question, Lisa calmly pointed to the inside of the room and said, "Out of courtesy, can you let me in first? How can you keep a lady outside the door to chat like this?"

Hearing Lisa's slightly reproachful words, Shao Yun's tense nerves relaxed a little.

"This must be Lisa, no doubt. The alarm is lifted."

He stepped aside to make way for Lisa and motioned for her to come in.

As Lisa walked in, Shao Yun gently closed the door and put the gun back into the holster at his waist.

……

Lisa walked into the room. When she saw Ying, Paimon and others who were awake, she couldn't help but say thankfully, "Fortunately, there are still so many people who are awake. This is really a lucky thing."

At this time, Lisa looked a little uneasy and even started talking nonsense.

Paimon approached curiously and asked, "Ms. Lisa, what happened? Why did you come to see us in the middle of the night?"

Lisa waved her hand gently and explained quickly: "To make a long story short, all the residents of Xumi City fell into a coma for unknown reasons."

"I thought everyone was tired from playing, but my bed was broken. I went to the inn owner, but no matter what I did, I fell into a deep sleep and didn't seem to be awake at all."

"If it's just one, I'll admit it, but as for the others, no matter how much I shout, I can't wake them up! They're just like those drunkards in Mondstadt who drank fake liquor, all of them passed out."

Hearing this, Paimon was so scared that he hurriedly hid behind Ying and stammered, "What...what! Miss Lisa, you are not kidding! This is too scary..."

Lisa crossed her arms over her chest, nodded seriously and said, "I'm not kidding! I was worried about whether you guys had encountered the same situation, but now it seems that we are probably the only ones who can stay awake in the entire Xumi City."

At this moment, when everyone present heard the news that everyone in Xumi City had fallen into a coma, except for Shao Yun and Nashida who were relatively calm, everyone else's faces showed more or less panic.

Shao Yun first took out a pocket watch, opened the cover, looked at the current time, and muttered to himself.

"According to this time, the plan of the Ministry of Education to dig into the computing power of human brains has already started. As expected, it is a good thing that I didn't bring the Void Terminal."

I heard Lisa say that the people in Xumi City fell into a coma and couldn't be woken up no matter how hard we called them.

Seeing this, Nashida immediately got out of the gift box.

Her face was a little solemn, but she remained calm, and said to everyone present: "Please calm down first! Don't panic, I know what's going on!"

Then, without even stopping, Nashida eagerly expressed her gratitude to everyone.

"First of all, thank you all for celebrating my birthday. Although I didn't get to ride on the beautiful float that you prepared for me, Dina Zede, I am still very happy to spend time with you all today."

After saying this, Nashida took a deep breath and continued, "Now, there is a very important matter waiting for me to deal with. I am very happy to celebrate the Flower Goddess Festival with you."

Before she finished speaking, Nashida didn't even give Shao Yun a chance to respond. She turned around and said, "Mr. Shao Yun, please come with me."

Shao Yun was a little overwhelmed by Nashida's sudden request. He pointed at himself with a confused look on his face.

"Me? Why is it my business?"

Facing Shao Yun's doubts, Nashida nodded firmly and replied: "Yes, I need your help. Besides, our previous conversation is not over yet, right?"

Shao Yun thought of what happened before Lisa knocked on the door, and whispered to himself: "You are really not afraid of me killing you, but you really have no choice..."

Then, Shao Yun turned around and said to Ying and Paimeng: "Okay, Ying, Paimeng, I have to go out for a while. If you encounter any danger at home, don't hesitate, just aim and shoot!"

Then, Shao Yun made suggestions to Lisa, Dina Zedai, Dishiya and Nilu.

"I suggest you wait until I get back before you even think about leaving my house."

After making clear arrangements for these girls, Shao Yun followed Nashida out the door.

Although Ying was not particularly worried that Shao Yun would be in danger, she still couldn't help but remind him, "Then you have to be careful and pay attention to safety."

……

After Shao Yun and Nashida left, Lisa began to notice the unfamiliar Nashida. She looked at Ying and asked curiously, "Who was that little girl just now?"

Ying felt a little embarrassed when she saw that Lisa had not noticed Nashida until now, but she still patiently explained to Lisa: "Lisa, the little girl just now is the little grass god of Xumi, her name is Nashida..."

When Lisa heard that the little girl was actually the Grass God, she couldn't believe her ears and muttered, "Ah? He's serious..."

……

"What did you want to talk to me about before Lisa knocked on the door?"

"Don't say anything for now, quickly carry me back to Jingshan Palace! Otherwise, the people in Xumi City will be in danger!"

"All right……"

……

Shao Yun carried Nashida, who was unable to run fast, back to Jingshan Palace.

At the gate, he saw the two guards who had been knocked to the ground by the illegal liquor he had spiked. The two men were still lying there motionless.

"These two guys are still sleeping so soundly? Don't tell me they are really dead..."

But at the moment, neither Shao Yun nor Nashida had time to take care of the two unconscious guards.

The two walked into the Jingshan Palace, but what they didn't expect was that a mysterious man (demon) wearing a tall hat stood upright in front of the meditation device that imprisoned Nashida.

It had its back to them, as if it had expected the two to appear at this moment, and was waiting quietly.

When the footsteps of Shao Yun and Nashida reached his ears, the man in the tall hat turned around calmly with his hands behind his back, his face expressionless, and said in a flat tone: "You are finally here."

Nashida stared at the demon that suddenly appeared in front of her, feeling a sense of panic in her heart.

"Who are you?" As soon as the words fell, Nashida's beautiful eyes began to emit a strange grass-green light, and the whole person instantly entered a state of high alert.

The man in the tall hat stared at Nashida's grass-green eyes and explained in a very calm tone, "You don't have to be so hostile to me. I just feel that someone needs my help. Come here and wait."

Nashida stared at the tall-hatted man in front of her with her grass-green eyes and asked seriously, "What do you want to do?"

Facing Nashida, who exuded the majestic aura of the grass god, the man in the tall hat was calm and composed, and explained slowly in an almost indifferent tone: "You should know very well that the sheep in the flock need to know their own position. If they dare to challenge the authority of the shepherd, then the end that awaits them is bound to be an extremely miserable tragedy."

Hearing such a meaningful metaphor, Nashida did not show the slightest panic.

Instead, she just nodded calmly and responded, "I know this. A few days ago, Miss 'N' of the Witch Society told me about the so-called God-making Plan that the Ordinance House is secretly promoting."

"I just didn't expect that what happened today would be related to the God-making Project..."

Upon hearing that Nashida knew about the Council of God-making, Shao Yun asked in disbelief: "Wait a minute! Nashida, you know! How many secrets do you have yet to tell me?"

Nashida turned around upon hearing this and her eyes fell on the tall Shao Yun beside her.

She just sighed softly, and then asked in an unusually calm tone: "Don't you have a lot of secrets that you haven't told me?"

Shao Yun was choked by Nashida's words. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something in rebuttal, but finally closed his mouth helplessly.

He waved his hands in boredom and grumbled, "Oh... I never expected that. It seems that one really can't judge another person based on appearance alone."

"How could I really be so stupid as to think that you were just a kid, Buyer..."
