Don't Interrupt My Immortal Cultivation

In the midst of their worries, Ye Ying returned with some special news.

"What? The official from Qingcheng wants to reconcile with us?"

The butcher, who had been gloomy all along, jumped up: "That damn dog wants to reconcile? He can only do so by cutting off his own head!"

Yun Qingshui also found it unbelievable and asked, "What did they say exactly?"

Ye Ying timidly replied, "They said they have seen our strength and that the previous misunderstandings were caused by instigation from others. They are willing to compensate for all our losses and form an alliance with us to deal with the sheriff of Changshan County."

"Nonsense! Complete nonsense!"

The butcher cursed furiously, and Ye Ying dared not continue. The other brothers and sisters also found it too absurd to ask any further.

A few more days passed, and their actions became increasingly difficult. They were running low on funds and supplies, to the point where they couldn't even afford to go to the hospital. They could only treat their injuries at home.

The monkey went to the county government office twice, but the officials there already knew him and refused to see him. The security guards kept driving him away, no matter what the monkey said.

The county government office's only response was always, "Wait."

Yun Qingshui couldn't wait any longer and said to Liu Henshi, "You should personally go to Changle Town and find Sheriff Lin. You must see him in person."

"If necessary, show him your power, but be careful not to hurt him. He looks fragile, and even your palm wind might be too much for him."

Liu Henshi nodded and set off.

At this time, Ye Ying brought news from Qingcheng again. This was the sixth time they had sent a friendly signal, and to show their sincerity, they released some of the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled prisoners. They even brought ten thousand yuan as a resettlement fee.

Although the amount of money was not much, their sincerity was evident.

They didn't directly mention reconciliation again, only requesting negotiations.

Yun Qingshui hesitated, and the opinions of the brothers and sisters were divided. Only the butcher was firmly against it. Although he was usually the most dissatisfied with Changshan County, he was now the most steadfast on this side.

"Although Changshan County is full of shit, they still have some goodwill. Qingcheng's officials have done so much evil, and you want to forgive them?"

"It's not forgiveness," one of the brothers retorted. "It's just negotiations. Besides, they released people and gave money. That's a sign of sincerity, isn't it?"

"Nonsense!" The butcher angrily said, "I'll cut off your head and bandage your wounds. Is that also considered sincerity?"

Yun Qingshui was annoyed by the argument and waved her hand. "Forget it, I'll go. It's just negotiations. If we don't go, they'll think we're afraid."

When Sister Yun spoke, the matter was settled.

Then came the question of the meeting place. After some back and forth, the other side played their trump card and offered to release Chen Xingtai as a condition, and they agreed to meet in the village of Daxu, which was closest to Hanguguan.

The other side initially requested at least twenty people to come, but under Yun Qingshui's insistence, they agreed to only ten.

They also only brought ten people and promised not to deploy any security or inspection guards within a five-li radius. Otherwise, the negotiations would be canceled.

As the leader, Yun Qingshui had to go. Originally, she planned to select ten stable and powerful individuals with exceptional personal combat skills, but she couldn't resist the butcher's insistence and brought him along as well.

Thirty brothers were selected as scouts to explore the route and prevent any tricks from the other side. The remaining three hundred or so brothers, who had relatively minor injuries but still had some combat ability, served as support in the rear.

The meeting was scheduled for one o'clock in the afternoon.

Before they left, Yun Qingshui specifically instructed Ye Ying that if anything unexpected happened, she should quickly go back and find Sheriff Lin.

Everything was ready, and the group set off with high morale towards Daxu Village.

Life on the construction site was joyful, but Lin Wen had recently encountered some troubles.

As the reconstruction work progressed, the types of work became more specialized, from the initial two or three to now more than ten.

Originally, this wasn't a problem, but the issue was that there were always more people choosing the same job as Lin Wen.

Everyone wanted to do the same work as Sheriff Lin, perform the same actions, and shout the same slogans. This resulted in a situation where when Lin Wen was digging, there were too many people digging, and when he was picking up soil, there were only a few. As soon as Lin Wen picked up soil, everyone else followed suit.

In the end, they had to agree to take turns. Each person could only spend a maximum of three hours with Sheriff Lin.

Lin Wen made some improvements and started rotating to each work position for three hours.

This way, everyone was happy, and it didn't delay the work.

But now, there were already more than ten types of work, and Lin Wen couldn't even spend an hour at each position. Moreover, this was a huge challenge for Lin Wen himself.

Without using magic, he was just an ordinary person, a lazy otaku who didn't work hard or distinguish between different types of grains. It was extremely difficult for him to become the skilled king of construction in a short time.

But for the sake of good karma, Lin Wen gritted his teeth and didn't rest. He worked during the day and studied at night, determined to practice each job and each action until he became proficient. Otherwise, it would affect efficiency and delay good karma.

Because of this, he even lost his daily time for cultivation before bed. As soon as he lay down, he fell into a deep sleep and couldn't study the mechanisms of the magic system.

However, Lin Wen himself was also making rapid progress. As long as he adapted to these jobs, he believed that his cultivation time would soon return.

On this day, Lin Wen was working hard on the construction site when a stranger suddenly appeared and stared at him from a distance.

Lin Wen was sweating profusely, immersed in the passionate movements, the heat of his body, and the inspiring slogans, and didn't pay him any attention.

After a while, the stranger suddenly ran over and grabbed Lin Wen's hands, saying loudly, "Sheriff Lin! You are truly a good person!"

Lin Wen looked at him, but he couldn't say a word for a long time. An old farmer next to him pushed the stranger away and said, "Of course Sheriff Lin is a good person. Do you need to say it? Don't delay our work."

"Hey!"

Lin Wen shouted, and his hammer struck the foundation pile.

"Hey yo!"

More than ten thousand echoes, more than ten thousand hammers struck the foundation piles.

"Hardworking men, hey!"

"Hardworking men, hey!"

"A roar!"

"A roar!"

"The empire wants it too!"

"The empire wants it too!"

"Shake it three times!"

"Shake it three times!"

"Yo hey!"

"Yo hey!"

"Do it yourself, hey!"

"Do it yourself, hey!"

"Plenty of food and clothing!"

"Plenty of food and clothing!"

"We, hey!"

"We, hey!"

"Hardworking men, hey!"

"Hardworking men, hey!"

"By the will of the heavens!"

Support us at bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

"By the will of the heavens!"

"We're not afraid, hey!"

"We're not afraid, hey!"

With the rhythmic slogans, it didn't take long for more than 5,000 foundation piles to be driven into the ground.

"Next one."

Lin Wen shouted.

"During the rotation, take a ten-minute break and have a drink."

"Okay!"

More than ten thousand responses.

Lin Wen walked back, and Bai Xiuyu handed him a towel. Lin Wen wiped the sweat off his forehead and took the water handed to him by Bai Xiuyu. He took a big sip and said, "Go over there. Some of the sisters are sick, and we're short on people."

Bai Xiuyu smiled gently and said, "Okay, Lin Wenjun." Holding the hand of the little white girl, she took the towel and water and went to the other side.

Only then did Lin Wen turn his head to look at the stranger.

"What do you want?"

The man bowed respectfully to Lin Wen.

"Sheriff Lin, you are the most down-to-earth sheriff I have ever seen. You really don't seem like an official, but rather a noble person. Now I understand that all those rumors about you were spread by those damn officials. They can't tolerate the existence of someone like you, someone who shines so brightly and exposes their corruption, greed, cruelty, and pettiness. It makes them look so lowly and incompetent."

Lin Wen drank the water in his cup in one gulp and calmly said, "In this world, I am just an ordinary person. No one is born noble. If you have something to say, say it quickly. I have to get back to work soon."
