Ye Luo picked up the loud speaker and clapped it gently.

"Hello! Hello!" Ye Luo was testing the sound.

"Yeah, I can hear you." Keqing smiled, put her hands on her hips and nodded.

Ye Luo cleared his throat and shouted into the loudspeaker: "Dear elders and fellow villagers, I am Ye Luo. Please stop and listen to me."

When people passing by saw the platform and the banner, as well as Ye Luo and Keqing standing together, they all stopped to show respect.

"Recently, a strange disease has been spreading in Liyue Harbor. I believe everyone has seen it. We don't want to deceive you. This is not an ordinary flu, but a drug."

"This drug is made from opium poppy. When the poppy fruit is immature, the peel is green. About 10 days after the petals fall off, if you cut the fruit shell with a knife, milky white juice will seep out. After two or three days, the milky white juice gradually dries up and becomes glue-like, and the color changes from white to brown or black. This is the first opium, that is, raw opium."

"Raw opium has a very strong, distinctive smell, somewhat like ammonia or old urine, and is very bitter. It is slightly elastic when fresh, but becomes a hard lump after being exposed to air for a long time."

"Raw opium is mixed with water and then heated, fermented, filtered and other processes to produce refined opium, also known as cooked opium."

"Opium, when burned and then smoked, can excite the human nerves and become addictive. This is why drug dealers sell it to people by pretending it is a stimulant or something like that."

"After stopping taking drugs for a period of time, there will be a strong withdrawal reaction. At this time, the drug addiction will kick in. Some people will be very irritable, some will be depressed, and some will even lose the desire to live and have suicidal tendencies."

"Everyone should recall carefully in recent days whether the people around you, those you think are sick, have the same situation."

"We all believe that no one is doing this intentionally. They are using something that harms others and themselves. Most of them are deceived by bad people."

"However, as long as everyone is willing to work together with us to fight against drugs, and completely eliminate these things that harm the country and the people and harm others and ourselves as soon as possible, and drive them out of Liyue Harbor, we will soon be able to return to the peaceful and harmonious life we ​​had before."

“Whether you have relatives or friends who are addicted to drugs or not, Liyue Harbor is our common Liyue Harbor. It is the responsibility of each of us to protect this pure land.”

"Today, under everyone's witness, we will demonstrate and destroy this batch of drugs."

The crowd below was talking about something at once, and the whole square suddenly became noisy. Everyone was crowded together, talking and arguing for a long time.

Keqing clapped her hands, and the Qianyan soldiers pushed the carts one by one, gathering all the seized drugs into a huge deep pit that had been dug in advance.

Another team of Qianyan soldiers poured burnt quicklime into the pit and poured the water brought from the sea into it.

The hot lime water was boiling in the big pit. The drugs that were chopped up and poured into the pit also gradually dissolved and dissipated along with the heat of the lime water, eventually turning into mud and dust.

"Success!" Keqing was delighted.

Ye Luo nodded with a smile: "Yes, it was destroyed successfully. It seems that I remembered the method correctly."

The onlookers below cheered loudly, the applause was like thunder, and the cheers and shouts lasted for a long time.

Ye Luo told Keqing: "The search cannot end here. There must be hidden drugs in Liyue Harbor that have not been discovered. This is related to the safety of Liyue Harbor. I suggest spending more time and conducting a thorough investigation."

Keqing responded: "Don't worry, we will never stop until the hidden dangers of drugs are completely eliminated."

"However, there are so many people addicted to drugs, but we still don't know how to quit..."

Keqing was in a dilemma, but Ye Luo was also confused about the matter.

He has never been addicted to drugs, so he cannot empathize with the feelings of those who take drugs, and he has no idea how to control his drug addiction.

But he truly saw how painful and difficult it was for those people when they were addicted to drugs.

"This is a process of tempering one's character and will. If one can withstand the strong withdrawal reaction, there will always be a day to quit drug addiction. However, I do have a different method..."

Keqing looked at Ye Luo impatiently, hoping that he would give a better answer.

Not long after, a brand new stall was set up at the location where the drugs were destroyed.

Ye Luo shouted with a loud speaker: "All drug addicts, please line up to receive the sleeping herbs. Mr. Baizhu developed them himself, and they are very effective. Take them when you are addicted to drugs, and you will go through the withdrawal reaction in your sleep and avoid the pain."

The entire "Liyue Harbor" was filled with long queues, stretching from the "Yujing Terrace" all the way to the bridge. The Qianyan Army distributed the medicines one by one in an orderly and harmonious manner.

The residents of Liyue Harbor have not been abused by drugs for too long, nor have they rejected the idea of ​​quitting their drug addiction, so everything seems so harmonious.

At the same time, the "Yujingtai" prison...

Shanfeng and Roushui led Ningguang and her three secretaries into several large prison cells at the corner.

Those imprisoned here are all the drug dealers' thugs captured by Ye Lan.

"You could have lived a peaceful life, but you chose to do something that would bring disaster to the country and the people, harming others and yourself. You deserve to die."

Ningguang had a dark face throughout the whole process, which scared most people out of their wits, but there was a boy of about fifteen or sixteen years old who stood in the front and chose to face Ningguang's questioning.

"We just want to live a peaceful life, right? If we have a way to survive, why would we risk being beheaded and do something that would shorten our lifespan?"

“You are one of the ‘Seven Stars of Liyue’, the noble ‘Star of Heavenly Power’, Lady Ningguang. You are an existence that can overturn the world with a wave of your hand. You are the symbol of wealth and power for all of Liyue.

"But what are we? We are just a group of ants. Any noble person can crush us under his feet! If there is any natural disaster, we can only wait for death!"

"When we couldn't survive, why didn't anyone see us? But now that we have found a way to survive, someone is blaming us for being wrong!"

The boy yelled, "What did we do wrong? Did we make a mistake in surviving by our own efforts?"

"So, you high-ranking officials, you upper-class people who have all the fame and fortune, you just want us to die. We are an eyesore to you when we are alive! Right?"
