You put me in charge of the prison and turned all the female prisoners into female military goddesse

Lu Jing quickly dodged behind a large tree, simultaneously loading stone pellets into his hands.

whoosh-

Hit the stone pill with one shot.

boom!

A muffled thud was followed by the clattering sound of four hooves as it fled.

Don't pursue a desperate enemy, especially since it's already late.

Chasing after someone unfamiliar with the area could easily lead to an ambush.

But what is this thing that got hit?

Lu Jing couldn't figure it out.

If it's a wild beast like a wolf, its eyes are mostly green. What was that eerie blue one just now?

Could it be that the piper was behind it all?

Lu Jing's expression was solemn as he kicked a small pebble beside him.

Forget it, guessing will only waste my energy. Let's wait until dawn to talk about it.

Return to the temple.

Lu Jing was slightly surprised as soon as he stepped into the main hall.

The female prisoners were quite quick and efficient.

The once dirty and chaotic palace is now, if not completely transformed, at least orderly.

The floor was swept clean, revealing the natural color of the bluestone tiles. The cobwebs on the beams and in the corners were gone, and loose straw was laid on the ground as bedding for sleeping at night.

"good."

Lu Jing praised him, and the women immediately surrounded him, trying to curry favor with him.

"Lord Lu, I swept this floor."

"Sir, I rubbed the straw myself, and my fingers were pricked."

"Come and see, I've found some wooden planks to put underneath to keep out the moisture."

The chattering was so loud that Lu Jing kept rubbing his temples.

"Lord Lu, look! We've found something!!"

The shouts from the entrance "rescued" Lu Jing, who squeezed through the crowd and headed towards the palace entrance.

"Sir, look."

Several women carried two burlap sacks. Qin Liniang excitedly opened them, reached inside, and scooped out a handful of millet.

food?

Lu Jing's first reaction was not excitement, but vigilance.

He picked up a small handful, observed it first, then smelled it under his nose, and then used a knife to poke the bottom of the bag, stirring and turning it over.

The examination revealed nothing unusual.

This temple has been uninhabited for a long time, so the millet is most likely stored grain.

But even stored grain must be carefully inspected.

"Take it and cook it, but don't eat it yet. Bring it to me to see."

"Yes, Lord Lu."

Upon hearing Lu Jing's order, Qin Liniang called out to everyone:

"You wash the pots, the rest of us go gather firewood, and you guys go fetch well water to wash the rice."

With a clear division of labor, the work can be done efficiently.

But some people disagreed.

"Why should I wash the pot? It's such a big pot, and it'll be past midnight by the time I'm done washing it."

"You can wash the pots and pans, but I'm not going to collect firewood. I already encountered a mandrill before, it's too dangerous. Whoever wants to go can go, I'm not going."

"With so much millet, it needs to be washed at least four times. That's so tiring! Why don't you guys do it?"

The women were all unwilling to submit to each other, each shirking their responsibilities and refusing to do anything.

At first, it was just that my tone was harsh, but as I talked, I got angry.

They chattered and crackled incessantly.

The once quiet main hall suddenly became like a vegetable market.

Having too many women can be troublesome!

Lu Jing frowned and pressed his hand to his temple again.

However, this did serve as a reminder to him.

I need to select a few leaders from among these female prisoners to help me handle daily affairs.

Besides having limited energy and not being able to meddle in so many other people's business, this also helps to prevent the endless arguments we're having today.

But how do I choose?

Lu Jing rubbed his chin, squinting at the women arguing in front of him.

"Stop making noise."

Ok?

Upon hearing Lu Jing speak, all the women immediately fell silent and looked at him.

"Let's do it," Lu Jing said.

"what?"

"You two have a fight, see who's better, and whoever wins gets to do what you say."

"You've been arguing for so long, why don't you just beat them to submission?"

Lu Jing crossed his arms in front of him: "This method is the fairest, much better than just talking."

what……

The women, who had been making a racket, immediately fell silent, looking at each other and scratching their temples. No one moved.

"You were so energetic during our argument, but now you look like a defeated fighting rooster!"

Faced with Lu Jing's teasing, the women fell silent, only managing awkward forced smiles.

"hurry up."

Lu Jing urged, "I don't want to hear you arguing anymore. Besides, let's select a few leaders to help me manage things and obey my orders."

Upon hearing these words, the women, who had been hesitant, immediately perked up.

"Lord Lu!"

From the crowd, Lanshancha raised her hand: "If I win, can I be your wife?"

Ha ha ha ha--

The women laughed, but their eyes held a burning curiosity for the answer to the question.

Lu Jing frowned: "Stop talking nonsense and get to the competition."

"OK!"

With her sleeves rolled up, Lanshancha smiled and said, "Whether I win or not, I'll still be your wife!"

"Come!"

Taking a fighting stance, Lan Shancha taunted the other female prisoners: "I can't beat you to death."

"Oh, you think you're scared of me?"

The other female prisoners, their competitive spirits stirred by her, shouted a few words and rushed over without even saying "Ready, go!"

"You have no sportsmanship!" someone shouted in protest.

"What martial virtue? Being able to hit you is martial virtue."

"Okay, come on!"

Shouting and cheering, the female prisoners swarmed forward and began to wrestle.

No warm-up was needed; the battle escalated into a fierce fight the moment they made contact.

There are people pulling hair.

Some people twist their ears.

Some people pinch the stomach.

There were also couples who were wrapped around each other's necks and rolling around on the ground.

Ok……

Lu Jing touched his chin.

Women fight differently than men.

How come it's actually kind of good-looking?

However, each of them was quite ruthless.

Standing next to the fighting crowd were some "peaceful" people who hadn't joined in.

They watched in terror as their former cellmates cursed at each other, slapped each other, and choked each other.

"Don't you want to be the leader?"

Lu Jing walked to Wen Lanxiang's side. When she saw him coming, she bowed first and then calmly said, "I know that I am weak and powerless and no match for him, so I will not go down and embarrass myself."

She stared at Lu Jing with her clear, innocent eyes, but when she spoke, her tone was icy and devoid of any emotion: "I will follow your orders. Whether I am the leader or not, whether I manage others or not, is not important."

She was trying to say nice things, but the way she said them just didn't sound right.

After smacking his lips, Lu Jing clapped his hands, signaling a halt to the fighting female prisoners.

The women were covered in dirt and filth, some with red scratches on their faces.

Everyone looked at Lu Jing.

Lu Jing announced the final selection of the person responsible for assisting him.

There are five people in total.

Among them are Ye Qingqing and Ni Lumeduo.

Everyone can understand why they were selected.

After all, Ye Qingqing's physical attributes were undeniable, while Nilumedo possessed formidable combat prowess and the wildness of an outsider.

However, Wen Lanxiang's selection puzzled everyone.

She didn't participate in the battle just now.

"Wen Lanxiang risked her life to save me long ago. In addition, she is meticulous and thoughtful, and is suitable for management."

Lu Jing scanned the crowd: "Who among you dares to say they are better than her? Step forward, and I'll make you the leader."

There was complete silence. The women looked at each other, but no one stepped forward.

"Since there isn't one, then from now on, those five will be in charge of managing things for me. Everyone else will have to follow their orders. Understand?"

As he spoke, Lu Jing scanned the group again, and the women immediately shouted "Yes," daring not to raise any further objections.

Turning around, Lu Jing addressed the five elected individuals:

"And don't get too cocky, because your position won't last forever."

"Others can replace you as long as they perform meritorious service and make contributions."
