Adjust the time difference today, and try to update during the day tomorrow!

By the way, let's collect the official name of the subsidiary. If there is no better one, then just call it a witch. After all, there are witches here, but no one is famous, and it seems to be called Wu Zhu.

Chapter 65: The Trivial Errands Stuffed in Li Wan's Hands

Go out of the path and into the village.

Several people lived in different locations, so after entering the village, they separated.

Except Liu Ya and Li Han.

Since Li Han himself didn't know which position his aunt had been assigned by He Shi, he could only trouble Liu Ya who knew the inside story to take her to look for it.

Passing through the trails in the village, a large number of refugees pushed the carts robbed from the bandit camp before, and pulled piles of stone, wood and mortar back to the village, and carried out construction work around them.

Compared with before, the scale of the village is now getting bigger and bigger.

At the very beginning, each refugee could only sleep on the ground in the courtyard. Even if there were vacant houses, dozens or even dozens of people had to live together.

But now, although the construction work is stumbling, and the speed is not very fast, at least there is progress. It is not a problem to build some simple wooden houses for temporary living.

"Here."

Liu Ya lightly reminded her, then turned around and walked into a nearby courtyard.

Li Han followed immediately.

And the second they walked into the courtyard, a middle-aged man came out of the house in the courtyard cursing.

"Really, isn't it just a couple of gambles, so it's necessary to go online like this..."

Hearing the words in his mouth, Li Han rolled his eyes, glanced at her slightly, did not speak, followed behind Liu Ya, passed each other, and entered the room.

"Ugh……"

As soon as she entered the gate, she heard a long sigh.

Turning his head to look, he found that it was his aunt Li Wan.

At this time, the other party was sitting behind a table in the room, rubbing his forehead with some headaches.

"Auntie!"

Seeing her, Li Han immediately made a crying expression, walked around the table, and fell on her.

"Oh, I don't want to stay here anymore, or let's go home."

"what?"

Li Wan frowned, and patted her on the back habitually.

"What are you talking about all of a sudden... um? Why do you smell so bloody?"

As she spoke, she looked at Liu Ya with some doubts.

"Master Qingwu started combat training for us selected people today. The bird in charge of training us...is Master Danniao, and the process will be a bit difficult, so..."

Liu Ya explained.

combat training...

Hearing this, Li Wan quickly understood, and straightened up at her niece.

"Now that you've made a decision, don't just go halfway and think about turning back. You finally got the extraordinary opportunity, shouldn't you practice hard now?"

"Hey... But that kind of training method will really kill people."

With a mournful face, Li Han raised his head from the opponent.

"Okay, just work hard."

Li Wan naturally didn't believe it and pushed it away from her body.

After all, as long as you think about it in the simplest way, you will understand that for that Lord Qingwu, both himself and his niece are still of use value.

It is impossible for the other party to waste the life of his niece in such a senseless manner.

What's more, it was the Dan bird who did it...

"Speaking of which, what happened just now?"

Liu Ya made a sound.

She hasn't forgotten what the two of them saw when they walked into the courtyard.

"You mean the guy just now?"

Li Wan immediately understood what she meant, sighed and shook her head.

"What else could have happened? People with privileges took the lead in committing crimes, and then refused to obey discipline."

"A privileged person?" Li Han looked at her suspiciously.

"What do you mean?"

"Just like Miss Li Wan, they are the family members of the 'Chosen One'." Liu Ya explained lightly.

"Eh?" Li Han was taken aback, "Is this kind of thing under the control of my aunt now?"

"Yes."

There was some helplessness on Li Wan's face.

Originally, she wanted to see if she could find a professional counterpart in this village.

In the end, the village chief named He Shi was really a good person. After hearing her identity information and Master Qingwu's words to let the other party decide her position, he immediately arranged such a cumbersome job for her. .

There is no specific name for this errand at present, but it roughly means to be responsible for handling all matters related to Mr. Qingwu in the village, including the management of the family members of the "chosen ones", and this is also the most troublesome point of this position at present.

Among other things, when recruiting participants, He Shi and the others promised quite generous benefits in order to ensure the number of participants.

As long as he is selected by Mr. Qingwu, he will definitely have money, housing and food.It's just that the only thing that has been fully cashed in to these family members is the house, and the money and food have been promised that they will give them slowly.

And this has led to the fact that when these family members commit crimes, they are not easy to manage, especially those that are not harmful and not worth using force, but it is unjustifiable not to deal with them.

If they had to use force to resolve such a small matter, it would definitely give a bad impression to the refugees who had just joined the village.

He obviously didn't even realize the benefits of sending his daughter, so he just used force to make a fuss over a molehill...

What's more, they might think that their village dealt with people directly in order to avoid realizing the follow-up benefits.

And if these villagers were originally local residents, or if there were more local residents, that would be fine.

But the problem is that the current situation in the village is that there are more foreign residents than local residents, or most of them are foreign residents, and the number is even six or seven times more than local residents.

Under such circumstances, if such a thing happens, it will at least affect the celebration next year, and at the worst, it will directly cause confrontation between the villagers and the people from other villages. Kill everyone, right?

That's why the village chief entrusted her with such tedious tasks.

She can probably guess what the other person is thinking.

If it is her who handles it, then she also has the identity of a "family member of the chosen one", which is completely equal or even higher in status, and she is also an outsider, even if it is too radical Dealing with it will not make the outsiders in the village think too much.

Even if some people still think too much, it will not cause confrontation.

It's like half of the problem has been solved.

And the other half...

Li Wan had to figure out a way for herself.

"It's just to deal with a gambler who skipped work and gambled. I will handle this matter myself. You don't have to think about it. It's getting dark now, so go back and rest as soon as possible."

"Skipping work to gamble, you mean the guy just now?"

Hearing this, Li Han frowned.

Liu Ya beside her also moved her eyes slightly.

"Okay, don't worry about the kid so much, I have my own way to deal with him, let's go."

Li Wan waved her hand, signaling her to leave.

"Who is the child..."

Li Han pouted.

"Do you need me to tell Grandpa?" Liu Ya said lightly.

"No need." Li Wan shook her head.

"I was a little troubled just now, and I have almost figured out a way to deal with him. When I need someone, I will ask the village chief for it. You don't have to worry about me."

"……All right."

Seeing that she had said this, Liu Ya naturally didn't say anything else, pulled up Li Han who was still reluctant to leave, and walked towards the door.

"Eh? Wait, I still have something to say..."

"Then we'll leave first."

"Ah."

Li Wan nodded.

Chapter 66: Liu Xue's Gambler Father

On the other side, after being separated from everyone, Liu Xue went straight to her home.

　but……

He said it was his home, but in fact it was a mud house with a yard in the village that was honored to their family after he was selected by Lord Qingwu.

I heard that this earthen house used to be lived by a hunter in the village, but unfortunately the hunter did not marry a wife and had no children all his life, so after his death, no one inherited his house and became a common property in the village. property.

There are still many houses like this in the village, and most of them were taken out by the village head to house the refugees when the refugees flooded in, and now they are given to the chosen ones and the families of the chosen ones to live in.

"came back?"

As soon as he entered the courtyard, a voice sounded from the side.

Hearing this voice, Liu Xue frowned slightly, turned her head to look, and found a middle-aged man sitting there with a gloomy face on the well in the nearby courtyard.

If Li Han and Liu Ya were here at this time, they would definitely recognize this middle-aged man as the one they met before.

And he is Liu Xue's father, Liu Yan.

Seeing this person, Liu Xue's eyes suddenly showed subtle disgust. She didn't speak, just stood there coldly, looking at him.

"How's it going today? Did you get some money from Mr. Qingwu?"

Liu Yan looked at his daughter with low eyes.

He is in a very bad mood now, and finally found a gambling partner in this new place. After playing a dozen or so rounds, he only won two of them, and lost most of his money.

It wasn't over yet, just when he felt that his fortune was about to turn around and he wanted to win back all the money he exported, people from the village suddenly came and arrested all his gambling partners.

It was tantamount to cutting off his chance to win back today.

Fortunately, he was smart enough to use such a useless daughter as himself to change a privileged identity in this village, so after those people captured him, they only gave him a verbal warning and let him go up.

But even so, the previous defeat in the game and the interruption by those villagers at the critical moment made him feel a lot of resentment.

So when he saw his daughter just coming back, he subconsciously stopped her.

And Liu Xue obviously knew his intentions, she didn't even have the desire to answer the other party, she just shook her head indifferently.

Her actions like this made Liu Yan feel even more resentful.

"What a useless idiot!"

"..."

Liu Xue didn't answer, but just lowered her head indifferently.

"You can't even do such a small thing. I really don't know how I have educated you these years! It's exactly the same as your mother. When doing things, you don't know how to think at all, and you don't have the slightest brain..."
