I, the sycamore tree demon, have met a phoenix!

tuk tuk-

"Father, I'm back."

Lei Shi knocked on the door of his somewhat dilapidated room.

"Come in."

A muffled voice came from inside.

Hearing the sound, the girl didn't go in directly, but patted her clothes lightly, straightened her hair, and after confirming that there was no problem, opened the door.

"How? I heard from the village chief that being left means being elected?"

What appeared in front of her was a middle-aged man with a goatee, a serious face, solemn eyes, and a tattered book in his hand.

He is Lei Shi's father, Lei Jian.

He is also a collateral member of the previous generation of the Lei family.

"Yes."

Lei Shi nodded respectfully, and kept a polite smile according to the other party's usual teaching.

"Although there were another twenty people who passed the first test, Lord Qingwu gave us a second test after we got to the open space, and in the end only four people including me passed. "

"Then you already have demon power on your body?" Lei Jian asked.

"Yes."

Lei Shi gave an affirmative answer.

"very good."

Hearing this, Lei Jian nodded in satisfaction, and put the book in his hand on the rough low table beside him.

"Although I don't know how that monster did it, but now it seems that it can pour itself into the human body, so that people without cultivation talent can also obtain power comparable to internal force..."

"And that monster has a very high status in this village, being selected by the other party means that you can get more privileges in this village, and using these privileges can also win you more resources. "

"As long as we repeat this way and use the power of that monster to play by ear in this village, one day we will be able to accumulate enough capital, and then..."

Speaking of this, Lei Jian's voice paused, his palms were slightly clenched into fists, a very strong hatred appeared in his eyes, and he squeezed out a word from his teeth with a cold expression.

"We will definitely make those bastards from the Lei family pay the price..."

"Ah."

Lei Shi nodded very cooperatively on his face, but he was already accustomed to the other party's words in his heart.

They are collateral descendants of the Lei family, but they are collateral descendants who have been expelled from the family.

the reason is simple.

Lei Jian's backer in Lei's family died in this war, and for this backer, Lei Jian did a lot of dirty work in the family.

Therefore, when those victims jumped out to settle accounts with Lei Jian after Lei Jian's backer died, their family immediately had no ability to resist.

So he was expelled from the clan land in this way, "assigned" to a border place like Baihe City, and encountered such a thing as a red ghost attacking the city...

In the end, three of the five members of the family died. Her grandparents, as well as her mother, all fell on the way to escape, and only she and her father survived and stumbled in the forest. Came across this village.

However, his father didn't realize the reason for this at all. It was because he ignored the dissuasion of his grandfather and mother and insisted on getting involved with that "backer", thinking that everything was wrong. Because the Lei family crossed the river and demolished the bridge, unloaded the mill and killed the donkey.

Although Lei Shi doesn't know who is right and who is wrong in this matter, she can understand that her father, who has always been strict with everyone in the family, is definitely sick.

Otherwise, for the so-called revenge, he couldn't have handed himself over to a monster that the sky has never heard of, and he has never seen before...

Fortunately, after getting in touch with it today, Lei Shi didn't feel any danger from this monster, otherwise, if it was a trap, she would never be able to get out of this forest.

Just like that, after being immersed in hatred for a long time, Lei Jian raised his eyes again and looked at the girl in front of him.

"In the days to come, you should also understand what you should do."

"Yes." Lei Shi nodded immediately.

"You just understand."

Lei Jian said in a deep voice.

"There are three generations of our family, and there has never been a person with a talent for cultivation. Otherwise, we would not have been abandoned by the Lei family as an abandoned child..."

"And now, this monster power that can be used by the human race is our opportunity. Although this opportunity is still a bit slim, it can at least give us a way forward."

"So, you must perform well on that Lord Qingwu's side, further gain its trust, and then gain more power from it!"

"Yes..." Lei Shi nodded again.

"Also, don't forget to maintain your own interpersonal relationship. You can't be tied down by emotions, but you can use emotions to bind others."

"Yes."

"Of course, the most important thing is that Master Qingwu's side. As long as it is his order, you don't need to hesitate, just execute it boldly. Only in this way can the other party pay more attention to it. Put some on you."

"Yes."

"and also……"

In this way, Lei Jian continued talking intermittently for a long while, and Lei Shi also listened in the room for a long while.

It wasn't until the other party's throat was a little thirsty that he finally stopped, waved his hand, and let her go.

And Lei Shi also walked out of the room.

"call……"

Raising her head and looking at the bright moon hanging in the sky, the girl couldn't help but let out a long breath.

Then he puffed up his face again, turned around, stuck out his tongue viciously in the direction of the room behind him, and made a grimace.

She doesn't like her father.

But there is no way, she only has her father left now.

And although their family was driven here because of their father, but also, if it wasn't for his father, she would have fallen down on the muddy official road along with her mother half a month ago.

"Ugh……"

Finally, she shook her head, turned around, and walked into another room beside her.

........................

........................

The time soon came to the next day.

After a night of celebration, the person responsible for cleaning up is naturally the person who attended the celebration last night.

Now, after the number of soldiers in the village began to increase slowly, He Shi was finally able to let these refugees work in exchange for food and rewards.

Not only cleaning up the mess after the celebration, but also the construction of houses for other refugees, the reclamation of roads and farmland, and the expansion of the wall around the village were all allocated by them.

After looking around at the gradually busy crowd, Li Wan walked out of the residence arranged for herself in the village and walked towards the entrance of the village.

Similarly, at this time, the four selected girls also left the village one after another.

Chapter 54: Playing aboveboard

When the first ray of sunlight hit the ground in the morning, Liu Ya's figure had already appeared in the open space.

She would come very early almost every day, and when she came here, she would either sit under the tree in a daze, or do what Lin Wu had entrusted to her.

Just like now.

Just arrived in the open space, she simply greeted Lin Wu, then silently picked up the shovel, and continued to dig the pit.

The expressionless look of constantly waving the shovel in the dirt pit is like a robot that has been programmed in advance, completely different from Li Han who can't help but grimace while doing it.

Of course, it's not that Li Han didn't do well or anything.

After all, although that girl always complains in her expression and mouth, she still won't be lazy when she does it, so Lin Wu didn't say anything to her, but looked at her bitter face, but had to It was fun to keep doing it.

It's a pity that this interesting picture must not be seen now.

Because at this time, Lin Wu once again started healing exercises on Danniao's body to eliminate the mutual exclusion of demon power.

And this practice, on the second day after healed the other party, after it found that the other party did not dislike its behavior, it began to continue gradually.

At the beginning, Lin Wu was still sneaky, and only dared to wait for the other party to fall asleep before daring to move cautiously.

But as time went by, Lin Wu's movements gradually became bigger and bigger and more presumptuous.

In the end, it simply stopped acting, and just started fighting the opponent openly and aboveboard.

As for the other party's behavior of expending demon power to help him heal his injuries faster, Danniao felt a little embarrassed a few days ago.

After all, it has been taken care of by the other party since it came here, and now the other party is actively expending its demon power to help it heal its wounds. No matter how you say it, it really can't accept it with peace of mind, so it wants to refuse many times.

however……

At this moment, it is like a cat that has succumbed, as long as it is patted, it can't help lying down, revealing its belly, and narrowing its eyes comfortably.

In short, there was no intention of resisting at all, and being teased, he swallowed all the words of rejection.

Then, with the idea of ​​talking about it next time, I squinted my eyes and began to enjoy it.

Then the next time becomes the next time, and the next time becomes the next time...

And so it has continued until now.

And it seems that there are symptoms of reluctance to leave, even the search for Qiankun Lake has gradually slowed down, and even simply forgot that there is Qiankun Lake, and lay comfortably in the nest every day ...

"Ok?"

Just halfway through the practice, Lin Wu suddenly sensed something, and his perception turned to the woods outside the open space.

On the path in the forest that was reclaimed a few days ago, the aunt Li Han brought back from the city is now walking towards the open space.

What is she here for?

Lin Wu couldn't help being puzzled.

Do you want to take Li Han away from me?

Do not……

Not to mention that I never restricted that stinky girl's freedom at all, that guy understands that if he wants to leave, he can just come over and tell him and he can leave, why does he need his aunt to come forward.

and so……

Could it be that Li Han didn't want to leave, and she wanted to take Li Han away by force, so she ran to her side and planned to let her side, and planned to persuade herself to persuade her with reason and affection? Li Han?

"?"

Feeling that the demon power entering his body was gradually decreasing, Danniao couldn't help but put a question mark in his head, opened his eyes, and looked at the tree trunk next to him.

Immediately afterwards, it also noticed Li Wan's approaching, turned its head and looked over.

Is it another Li family who came over a few days ago...

It couldn't help frowning, and there was a trace of disgust in its eyes, but it didn't say anything, just turned around like this, and closed its eyes again.

"stop."

It didn't take long for Li Wan to walk in the open space around her, when a voice stopped her progress.

Dragging the shovel, Liu Ya walked out of the pit with an unchanged expression. While patting the dirt on her cuffs, she quickly blocked the opponent.

"You are Miss Li Han's elder, what's the matter here?"

"I'm here to find Lord Qingwu."

Li Wan was not surprised by this.

After all, she has already heard a lot of information from Li Han, and she has a lot to say about this village, people like the other party who have obtained demon power after being selected, and the so-called Lord Qingwu. understanding.

And it was knowing these things that made her even more convinced of her idea of ​​making a trip.

"I have something to say to Lord Qingwu...some of it is about Xiaohan, and some of it is about other things."
