After several attempts, the two girls gradually figured out the trick, and finally they simply sealed their hearing and eyesight to the point where they were no different from ordinary people.
As a result, the number of times he lost began to increase. Li Yan had drunk nearly two jars of wine with a bitter smile on his face.
On the other side, Li Yu, Li Shan and others were even more excited due to the alcohol. Although they were already drunk, more people gathered around them and finally joined them.
Even some women, girls and children joined in, but not all of them joined Li Yu and Li Shan's side. Instead, many of them joined Zhao Min and the others.
The two girls were also very interested, like two elves in the night, running back and forth between the wine table and the locust leaf collection area...
Later, he began to whisper in the ears of some children and girls, analyzing where the other party might be hiding, and then directing the children to go there.
When the children returned with a bunch of locust leaves held high, their eyes curved into crescents. When they failed, they frowned and listened to others’ suggestions…
The moon was high in the sky and it was late at night, but cheers could be heard from time to time in the mountain village.
In the distance, Chang Bo and several elders in the village squinted their eyes, occasionally holding up a glass of wine, taking a sip with a "sizzle", and a long-lost smile appeared on their faces...
It was not until dawn that everyone dispersed, leaving behind a fresh day!
In the following days, Li Yan lived the long-lost life of ordinary people. He took off his long gown, put on a coarse cloth shirt, went to the fields to harvest, and threshed the wheat in the fields.
Zhao Min and Gong Chenying seemed to have forgotten about Li Yan. Zhao Min and Aunt Chang picked up a basket and went to the village to pick bunches of locust flowers. When they returned home, Aunt Chang taught her step by step how to put in chopped green onions, flour, salt, etc.
I make locust flower pancakes for lunch, locust flower pork dumplings for dinner, and locust flower egg custard for breakfast in different ways.
Zhao Min was very serious and learned one by one. Although she made mistakes from time to time, with Aunt Chang, a master who had been immersed in family cooking for decades, by her side, and Xiaoyu helping her from time to time, she managed to cook quite delicious food.
This made Zhao Min smile every time she saw Li Yan's family's satisfied expressions while eating.
Gong Chenying was like a medical genius. Under Li Yan's instruction, he deliberately prolonged the treatment time for Li Wei's leg disease. However, after about seven or eight days, the lameness that had troubled Li Wei for a long time was cured.
Both Li Wei himself and the people in the village were shocked beyond words. Li Wei walked briskly every day, running around the village and the fields, as if he wanted to vent all his self-pity.
He had a smile on his face all day long and praised Gong Chenying's medical skills highly.
Gong Chenying then treated Uncle Chang and Aunt Chang, not only curing some of their chronic illnesses, but also secretly supplementing them with elixirs. This made the two people, who had originally looked old, look ten years younger, with rosy complexions and radiant skin.
As a result, everyone in the village, young and old, immediately regarded Gong Chenying as a miraculous doctor. After some hesitation, several of them began to come to seek medical treatment with trepidation on their faces.
Although Gong Chenying didn't say much, he never turned away any of the villagers and treated them one by one. In the end, more villagers came to seek treatment.
For a time, Gong Chenying's name and reputation as a miracle doctor were known to everyone in the village, and even the figures of Li Yan and Zhao Min were overshadowed.
But as a result, other nearby mountain villages also knew about this and began to come. At first, Gong Chenying accepted everyone who came, but gradually things lost their flavor.
Not only did she not charge for her medical treatment, she didn't even charge for the medicine. This led to an endless stream of people seeking medical treatment, and the number of people increasing. Sometimes, people seeking medical treatment stayed up all night and traveled dozens of miles along the mountain roads to queue up, leaving Gong Chenying with no time to calm down.
When Li Guoxin saw it, he immediately got angry. He first scolded some women in the village severely. Most of them were the ones who did it. They had previously spread the news about the miracle doctor Gong Chenying back to their respective families.
Then, he drove these women back to their parents' homes one by one, and told them to clean up their mess, otherwise they would not be allowed to return to the village.
Li Guoxin has an absolute status in the village. He was supported by a group of old men like Chang Bo. In addition, he is one of the best people in the village both in terms of fairness in dealing with things and bravery in hunting.
Once he got angry, except for a few elders, every family in the village would be silent. Although the women cried, they really didn't dare to stay in the village. Under the harsh scolding of their husbands, they had to pack up their bags and go back to their parents' homes.
Li Guoxin then organized the young and middle-aged men in the village to set up a checkpoint directly at the entrance to the mountain, refusing all outsiders to enter. In this way, although the people who came were extremely dissatisfied, they did not dare to force their way in.
Firstly, Li Guoxin is one of the best heroes in the area, and secondly, this miracle doctor is said to be the daughter-in-law of the Li family in their village, and is also said to be a high-ranking official in the court.
The truth of these words was said by the women who had returned to their parents' homes, who swore to the heavens that they dared not use force. If they were not careful, they would anger the others and the soldiers would kill their own people, which would be a light matter.
In this way, the matter was gradually settled. After Li Yan knew about this, he shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly. It seemed that he had made a mistake. He couldn't be a good person so easily.
The following days finally returned to peace. Like Zhao Min, Gong Chenying was always kept by Aunt Chang and Xiaoyu, and she no longer gave the women in the village any chance to get close to her.
They took the two girls with them to pickle monster meat, pick wild garlic, bake pies, and make various snacks.
For a while, the two girls were enjoying themselves, and slowly, they began to compete with each other to see who could cook the better meal, and they had long forgotten about the fasting practiced by immortal cultivators.
During this period, Li Yan used his spiritual sense and magic power to secretly observe the people in the village, especially Xiao Wu's physique, but he was ultimately disappointed, as no one in the village had the necessary spiritual roots.
His original thoughts were nipped in the bud.
What made Li Yan feel a little relieved was that his eldest sister and fourth sister Li Xiaozhu also rushed back from a long distance after hearing the news. When the siblings met, they sighed again.
After seeing Gong Chenying and Zhao Min, the two sisters almost rubbed their eyes blind. Finally, they pulled Li Yan aside without any hesitation and asked him a lot of questions, almost making Li Yan reveal the identities of the two girls.
After much coaxing, he finally satisfied the curiosity of his two sisters, and Li Yan quickly fled.
After Li Yan's eldest and fourth sisters were satisfied, they finally joined their mother's team enthusiastically, and even displayed their own unique skills such as embroidery and weaving, which made Gong Chenying and Zhao Min envious.
Not long after, the five girls, including Xiaoyu, became even more confused. Even the two elder sisters, who wanted to come back for just a few days, kept delaying and stayed, unwilling to go back immediately.
Gong Chenying and Zhao Min also gave back a lot of beauty pills, which the eldest sister, the fourth sister and Xiaoyu regarded as treasures. However, Li Yan's second sister married too far away, and it was difficult to inform the news, which made Li Yan a little regretful.
Li Yan found an opportunity and when he handed over ten thousand taels of gold to his father, Chang Bo was so scared that he almost bit off his tongue and felt like he was dreaming.
After waking up, at Li Yan's suggestion, they thought it would be better for them to move to the city, where Xiao Wu could study well. They couldn't keep farming and hunting for a living for generations. But Chang Bo couldn't bear to leave the place where his ancestors were born and raised, so he talked to Li Wei all night. The next day, Li Wei went to Qingshanai alone with red eyes. Li Yan didn't want to ask about the specific result.
He had done everything he could. After calming down, he took out the "Mu Liu Men" puppetry introductory technique given to him by Bai Rou and studied it carefully. The small mountain village returned to its previous life.
… …
Millions of miles away from the Daqing Mountains, there is a place with singing birds and fragrant flowers, like a paradise on earth.
There are many pavilions and terraces here, small bridges and flowing water, and many women with enchanting looks or beautiful and pretty looks are strolling here. With their sleeves fluttering, they slowly fly through the misty clouds like fairies in a fairy palace.
This place is a place that many young and talented immortal cultivators yearn for, and it is called "Hongchanmen".
All the disciples are women. Although it is only a second-rate sect and its influence only covers an area of about a thousand miles, it is very famous in this area.
Because of the special skills of the "Hongchan Sect", all the women who practice the skills of the Hongchan Sect are extremely differentiated in two directions. They gradually become either gorgeous and charming, able to captivate people with their every move; or fresh and beautiful, pure and spotless like fairies in the fairy palace.
All of this makes many young male practitioners extremely eager to get the other party, and they always think about having such a dual cultivation partner.
However, not many people dared to mess around in the "Hongchan Sect" after being overwhelmed by lust, because the sect's leader, "Hongzhu Fairy", was a cultivator in the middle stage of the Jindan Sect. Her cultivation was just like her temper, aggressive as fire, and deadly as thunder.
At this time, in the main hall of the back mountain of Hongchanmen, there were two people standing inside. One of them was wearing a fiery red long skirt and had a crazy hot body. The long skirt, which was already very loose, looked extremely tight under her plump figure.
The undulating curves make one feel as if they are in the midst of mountains, with cascading black hair tied into a bun on top of the head, a powdered face, and a pair of phoenix eyes with a hint of murderous intent.
Beside her stood a beautiful middle-aged woman in a green gauze dress, she was about thirty years old, her face was not at all worldly, like a lotus emerging from water.
But what attracted people's attention was that despite her fresh look, the green gauze dress she wore was translucent, and the tender white skin underneath was faintly visible.
The plump hips present a heart-pounding curve, with a large area of whiteness in the hidden heat, a blood-spurting contrast that drives people crazy.
And her cultivation level is also eye-catching. She is in the early stage of Golden Core. At this moment, her face is as quiet as a virgin, and she is talking to the woman in red skirt.
"Master, are you calling me here because of the news that came last night? I have already obtained intelligence on this matter some time ago. I heard that other chess pieces are looking for that thing everywhere, and the specific results do not seem optimistic."
After hearing this, the woman in the red dress did not show much change on her face.
"This matter seems to be extremely difficult, otherwise why would they think of us until now.
Didn't the message from last night also ask us to intervene in this matter? They also said that there should be three of the item, but up to now, none of them have been found."
"Master, now that there is a message coming, how do we find it?"
The beautiful middle-aged woman thought about it for a moment and then asked.
"This matter is easy to resolve. A magic weapon will be delivered in the next few days. I heard that as long as that thing appears within a radius of ten thousand miles, this magic weapon will be able to sense it.
However, this magic weapon is too precious. I heard that they spent tens of thousands of years and mobilized a lot of manpower and financial resources to only refine three of them.
From this, we can see that there should be at least two sects that are already searching with all their might, but we don’t know which sects they are.”
The fiery woman in the red dress spoke calmly.
"We have always had a single line of communication and have no idea of the existence of any other sects. We have also been hidden for hundreds of years. We usually only do trivial things like gathering information. This time, we were suddenly activated. It seems that the sect has taken this matter very seriously."
While the beautiful woman was speaking, she unconsciously moved her body slightly. Her movement was not a big deal, but the white flesh on her chest swayed, making people feel breathless.
"Well, the upper sect should be making a big move this time! By the way, you have to take good care of those girls below, and let them do what they can when they are trying to get information.
Don’t be like Cheng Huanqiao and Sun Meiqian last year, who were ignorant of their own limitations and tried to seduce the monks of the Wuliang Sect. In the end, they were discovered and their lives were taken away. They also almost exposed the secret line that they had planted in the Wuliang Sect with great difficulty.
If I hadn't deliberately gone to the market and made a scene afterwards, it would have aroused the suspicion of the Wuling Sect!"
The woman in the red dress seemed to suddenly remember something. Her eyes narrowed and a hint of anger appeared on her gorgeous face, but this anger added a bit of heroic spirit.
After hearing this, the beautiful woman bowed quickly.
"I was negligent in discipline. During that time, I was in seclusion to condense the golden elixir. Cheng Huanqiao and Sun Meiqian thought they had mastered the art of seduction, and they were successful in their attempts. However, they became complacent and ended up losing their lives.
I have already punished several elders for this matter, and everyone below knows about it, and it will definitely not happen again."
"That's good. You have to know what kind of sect the Wuliang Sect is. In the past year, it seemed to be calm, but many sects have disappeared quietly.
According to my guess, these disappeared sects may be lurking like us, and they may have made some moves recently, but were discovered by the Wuliang Sect or the other three major sects, and were uprooted overnight."
When the woman in the red dress said this, she actually switched to voice transmission, and her expression became even more solemn.
The beautiful woman had originally had a calm expression, but after hearing these words, her face changed several times.
She had just condensed her golden elixir last year, and had spent most of her time in seclusion consolidating her cultivation. Moreover, confidential matters like these were only known by the sect leader in front of her, but she was unaware of this matter, and could not help but mutter to herself.
"The entire sect... disappeared?"
