Please call me Huanxian

Chapter 26: Watching and helping each other, each going his own way

Xu Yuanchang, who had a strict temperament, still did not agree immediately and asked an irrelevant question.

"He Dazhuang in this town drowned in the toilet. Is it your fault?"

"It's not me, it's Hu Sanniang who takes revenge."

Liu Xianfeng saw that the Taoist priest across from him didn't believe it, so he stamped his delicate feet and said, "Okay, I admit that I put in some effort, brought Hu Sanniang to the town, and lent her some magic power to do things. I'm not helping the evildoers, so wait. The ruthless villain has lost his conscience and deserves to die."

Xu Yuanchang nodded secretly, and it was right. Hu Sanniang's ghost was too weak to go to the town.

If the other party didn't admit that he had put in the effort, he would consider rejecting Liu Xianfeng, and instead ask a key question in a euphemistic tone: "I walk the Taoist path alone and have no worries, why do I want to be next to my Taoist friends?"

Liu Xianfeng's small face showed a serious expression under the light: "With the current cultivation level of Taoist friends, it is still impossible to 'walk alone on the road without worries'. As far as I know, my generation of practitioners cannot If you want to achieve something, you must have a "Dharma Couple, Wealth and Land", and the "Couple" is a comrade who can help each other.

“You and I met by fate, and although we don’t know each other well, we act in perfect agreement.

"I'm not good at fighting, but I still have some ability to communicate with flowers and plants. I can use trees to set up a simple magic wood formation, which can also help to collect the luck of the place. Under the contract, I will try my best to help you. If we don't get along, we can What do you think about the contract termination?"

Xu Yuanchang had already agreed in his heart. He thought about it for a long time. Although there were still some questions, they didn't matter. He smiled and said, "Okay, I promise to buy the land. From now on, we will help each other and go our own way."

Liu Xianfeng flew in the air, danced gracefully, and shouted happily: "That's great. I know you are quite a good person."

He waved his hand and threw a bag, floating in front of the Taoist priest.

If the Taoist priest had not come forward to provide money to take care of Hu Sanniang's orphan, she would have hesitated for who knows how long.

"You don't need to pay for the land. I have a little savings, but I don't have enough money to talk to me anymore."

Hearing Liu Xianfeng's excitement, Xu Yuanchang took the bag without politeness and opened it to find some scattered gold, silver, jewelry, jade and the like, which was estimated to be worth three hundred taels of silver.

With such a big package of items, I wonder where the little Hongliu baby is hidden?

Standing on the road, the two discussed some details of the alliance. Xu Yuanchang walked to the roadside, broke off a handful of red willow branches, and said goodbye to Liu Xianfeng.

Returning to Gushipo, Xu Yuanchang did not carry the lantern again. He used his light body technique to leap over the rocks. He wandered in the deserted valley with dense trees for half an hour. He selected the foot of the mountain with a water source to the hillside and inserted the red willow branches into the broken pieces. Among the weeds on the stone ground.

One more tree charm neighbor will provide more support on the path of spiritual practice.

At least if he encountered a sneak attack like last time, he would have an extra helper to fend off the enemy, so he wouldn't be left alone.

After Xu Yuanchang left, the red willow branches at the foot of the mountain quickly took root underground, old leaves fell off, and new shoots sprouted.

Willow slender wind quietly appears on the slender leaves, rolling and dancing with joy, happy alone in the deserted night.

She will have a new home.

As her understanding of the human world deepened and her bloodline inheritance awakened, she felt a deep sense of crisis.

Since we can't be alone, we need to find colleagues to work with.

The next morning, Xu Yuanchang went to his eldest brother's house to sit for a while and chat a few words. Then he got up and took a shortcut along the mountain road to the clan leader's residence.

Watch tea and chat a few words.

The patriarch smiled and asked: "My good nephew is here, but is there something wrong?"

The fire in Hongliu Village last night burned so much that you can see it here, and the ash of vegetation floated in the wind to Shipan Village. Early in the morning, people went to investigate, and they found out that Xu Yuanchang was doing things in Hongliu Village to suppress evil spirits and liberate ghosts into the underworld.

The people of Hongliu Village talked about the great display of divine power, the great movement and the strange twists and turns, but they avoided talking about the family scandal.

Of course, the rumors are getting more and more mysterious, and the versions are different.

There is such a capable nephew in the village, how can he, the patriarch, not be happy?

Xu Yuanchang told the clan leader that he wanted to buy the gravel wasteland valley a few miles west of Gushipo, and wanted to ask the clan leader to send someone to handle it.

When he goes to town to do these things, there must be a lot of mess to deal with.

It's too troublesome and trivial, and it takes too long.

The patriarch asked carefully whether his promising nephew was going to run away from the village, so he agreed wholeheartedly.

Xu Yuanchang took out four hundred taels of silver notes and placed them in front of the patriarch's desk. He also took out two pieces of broken gold and said they were for tea and tea for someone to do something for.

He stayed out for more than half a year last year, and no one can count how much money he made.

His reward for a move in Xiahe Village was a hundred taels of silver notes. It was easy to get money. The clan leader should have heard of it.

He went to the city to apply for a status as a casual cultivator, traveled to Xianyu Garden, and made friends with other casual cultivators. Baijisi couldn't figure out where his money came from.

After leaving the patriarch's home, Xu Yuanchang returned to Gushipo and began to live a quiet and comfortable life of solitary cultivation.

Five days later, the clan leader sent someone to call him to go to the rubble wasteland to the west. With several county officials, town servants and others, as well as the village leader and clan elders as witnesses, he demarcated 600 acres of barren mountainous land.

Xu Yuanchang signed and stamped it in triplicate, leaving a copy of the land deed in his hand.

Later, the town's tolerance and unscrupulous people will drive piles to demarcate the boundary.

Xu Yuanchang took some broken silver and loose money to send out a group of petty officials and servants. In this way, he became a part of the landlords of the Daning Dynasty. A basic tax must be paid to the town every year. If the land is reclaimed, different fees will be paid according to the field level.

There are many manipulations here, which I won’t mention.

When people in the village heard about it, they started talking about it. Those who wanted to do something good climbed mountains and ridges and shook their heads after seeing the plot of land.

It was too barren, with thin soil and lots of gravel. It would take an unknown amount of time to cultivate a piece of land.

Xu Yuanchang lived his life behind closed doors without any interference.

The past few days have been spent waiting for everything to settle.

Xu Yuanchang once again set foot on the land registered in his name, and met Liu Xianfeng, who made a clear agreement on the mountain, and thus became comrades who would help each other.

At this time, Liu Xianfeng just let down his guard and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Xu, in such a large area, you can choose a hut to practice." His little finger pointed to a rocky flat on the northeastern hillside and said: "It's a good place. A place of anger.”

Xu Yuanchang smiled and said: "Let's talk about it in two years. I need to travel to explore my mind and broaden my horizons."

His eyes glanced at the dozen or so tamarisk trees that had grown to human height.

Liu Xianfeng was flying in the air and heard the words: "Before you go out, you can buy some trees, such as pine, cypress, jujube, pittosporum, cinnamon, evergreen, etc., and plant them in the wasteland. I can plant them in the wasteland after my practice. Make sense."

Some surprises need time to be revealed slowly, and she doesn't want to reveal too much at once.

There is an old saying among human beings: Those who are not of my kind must have different minds.

She doesn't want to be betrayed as an alien, and she can afford to wait to see people's hearts over time.

Xu Yuan agreed with a smile.

For the next three days, strong men labored every day to transport large and small trees into the mountains and plant them in various places in the wasteland. As long as the money was available, Xu Yuanchang did not need to lift a finger.

I greeted my eldest brother in advance, and on a cloudy morning, Xu Yuanchang left.

Use your steps as a ruler to measure your travel path.

Not long ago, I came to a small town called Houqiu. It was an autumn rainy afternoon and the heat had dissipated a lot. I walked into a shop and ate a bowl of braised pork noodles. I heard the sound of gongs beating outside.

A customer paid and walked out: "The trickster is here again."

"What is it this time?"

"Who knows, let's go and have a look."

Xu Yuanchang followed the idle people on the street to an open space in the east.

A middle-aged man in a short coat, with muscles in his arms, clasped his fists and yelled a cliché to the crowd gathered around him: "Dear young and old men, don't miss it when you pass by. Today, Fan Dahu and his daughter are using the precious land to perform tricks and perform tricks. He can do tricks, he can break rocks in his chest, he is invulnerable, he can do it all, and the rich can make money..."

A series of non-stop shouts continued, the gongs had stopped long ago, and Qingpi, who was watching the excitement, was already shouting impatiently.

"What are you talking about? We want to watch that girl act like her chest is broken."

"Absolutely, let's see that girl show her invulnerability."

"For a good performance, I will reward you with ten copper coins."

"I will reward you with twenty big coins."

"Haha, who wants to watch a stinky man perform tricks? Fan Shihu, you go down and let the girl come up."

There were all kinds of shouts, and everyone fixed their eyes on a young woman wearing a red cloth dress with a green cloth tied around her waist, which highlighted her exquisite figure. She looked somewhat heroic and beautiful.

The woman in red is used to seeing all kinds of scenes.

Without any stage fright or shyness, he cupped his fist and pushed it out neatly, drawing an arc in the air.

"Thanks to everyone's support, the little girl will perform a performance of 'Invulnerability' for everyone. The gentlemen of Houqiu Town talk every word, and they will definitely not break their promise of rewards."

As soon as these words came out, men from all walks of life started to scream.

"Girl, you have talent. We men are not cowards. If you dare to act invulnerable, I will reward you with thirty copper coins."

"The men in Houqiu Town are not bad. If you play the role of having a big rock in your chest, I will reward you fifty."

"I'm going to kill you with a knife later. Girl, do you dare to act invulnerable?"

"It's time to act, it's time to act."

"Man, there's no shortage of money."
