In just half a day, Xu Lian returned to Luzhu Town.
First, his strength has increased. In the marrow refining stage, he can run and jump in the mountains and forests for a long time without getting tired. His speed is much faster.
The second is that he is already familiar with the direction and the road, so he will not go wrong and avoids taking detours.
It is worth mentioning that the horse he tied in the no-man's land was still there. Fortunately, it was not eaten by wild beasts, but it was restless and a little frightened.
He rode his horse to his own mine first. Seeing that Pu Lin had arranged the mine in order and there was no trouble, he went home with peace of mind.
"Brother Lian is back."
Seeing Xu Lian return home safely, Li Xiya happily trotted over holding Yang Chaner's hand. Her heart was finally at ease. She had been worried about Xu Lian these days. The outside world was scary and unknown to them.
"Okay, I'm glad you're back."
Wang Cuiyun was in high spirits.
She has been very worried these days. If something happens to Xu Lian, there will be no such capable man in the family. If she has to go back to the days of eating black buns every day, she will go crazy.
It was the first time that Xu Lian left Luzhu Town and went to the outside world. He missed his beautiful wife and concubines at home very much. He did not care that it was broad daylight, and took Sister Xiya and Chan'er with him and walked towards the main house. He must relieve the pain of homesickness.
Li Xiya rolled her eyes at him but didn't say anything, just treating it as a reward for him.
Yang Chaner was still a little shy, but she was well-behaved and obedient and never opposed Xu Lian.
Wang Cuiyun left the front yard with a calm expression and went for a walk in the back garden. As long as the man in her family was able to let her eat meat, she didn't care about these trivial matters of the man.
Back when she was young, she was much more capable than these little fights.
She often took advantage of Li Jinshui's time at the mine to attract passing men to come in and earn food to supplement the family income. This was also the reason why she was able to raise Xiya so well. Children from poor families were generally malnourished, but it was impossible to raise such a beautiful daughter. This was her ability.
In fact, this phenomenon is very common in Luzhu Town. Many women in the family will earn some extra money while the men are out working.
Sometimes, the men in the family earn too little food, and the men will even actively encourage the women in the family to earn extra money. The world is so difficult, and nothing is more important than food.
It was not until the evening that Xu Lian came out of the main house contentedly. He saw that Wang Cuiyun had already prepared dinner. It really was like the saying: An old person in the family is like a treasure.
Sometimes I have to say that Wang Cuiyun, this "old baby", is very thoughtful and does the housework clearly.
The four of them ate dinner happily. Those who had food and meat had a good life every day and it was hard for them to be unhappy. Those who had no food would quarrel every day, which was in line with the saying: A poor couple will have bad luck in everything.
"Without a man to protect you, your home will be peeped at by people with bad intentions."
Wang Cuiyun said while chewing the meat, "During the days when you were away, a sinister man sneaked into our house."
Xu Lian's face changed when he heard this. He was furious, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes. This was the first time he wanted to kill someone so much. "Did you see who it was?"
Wang Cuiyun said, "It was the evening of the day before yesterday. It was already a little dark. I only saw a man who looked like he was in his forties. He had a white face like a ghost and was quite tall. After we found him, he slipped away."
Yang Chaner was also scared. "After this happened, we were scared every night. We squeezed into one room and closed the doors and windows."
Li Xiya was surprised, "The food, meat and silver in the house are not lost. I don't know what this person wants to do."
Wang Cuiyun sneered, "What's so strange about this? If he's not after money and food, then he must be after women! You have a thin waist and a big butt, and you look good at bearing children. Which man wouldn't be envious? And Chan'er is also very pretty, it would be strange if a man didn't want her."
As the man of Sister Xiya and Chan'er, Xu Lian was of course deeply touched, which made him even more furious. If they were after money, it would be a small matter, but they actually dared to go after his woman.
No matter what, he had to find this person out.
Killing one person is not enough to vent his hatred, he has to kill the whole family to have a deterrent effect, so that everyone in the entire Green Bamboo Town will know what the consequences will be if he sets his sights on his woman!
"Go back to your rooms and sleep early, and put out all the oil lamps and fires. I want to see if this person dares to come again."
Xu Lian decided to try first to see if he could lure this person over.
When he came back, the family felt like they had found a backbone. Wang Cuiyun, Li Xiya and Yang Chaner all listened to his arrangements and went back to their room to sleep together.
Xu Lian lowered his footsteps and patrolled the dark yard.
With his hearing ability at the marrow refining stage, he would be able to hear it immediately if someone climbed over the wall.
Unfortunately, we waited until the second half of the night but nothing unusual happened.
He came to the back garden, intending to ask the demons and monsters in the ancient well, "Sister."
A surprised voice came from the ancient well, "Sister, you came to see me."
Xu Lian said directly, "Sister has something to ask you. The evening before yesterday, a man sneaked into the house. Did you know?"
The voice in the ancient well said, "I am locked in here, and even my senses are imprisoned. I have no idea what is going on outside."
Xu Lian asked in confusion, "Then why can you hear me when I talk to you?"
The voice from the ancient well said, "Because you are my sister."
“…”Xu Lian’s face darkened.
What Shen Jingbing said made him doubt his life. Could it be that he was really the weird sister of the monster in the well
Ah~bah.
impossible.
Absolutely not.

Xu Lian asked curiously, "If someone other than my sister talked to you by the well, wouldn't you be able to hear it?"
The voice of the ancient well said, "It is impossible for me to hear it. There is a restriction in the well that isolates all the movement from the outside world. Unless the person who is talking to me by the well is strong enough to ignore the restriction in the well, and his voice penetrates the restriction in the well, I can hear it. There should be few people in the world who are so strong."
Xu Lian was stunned.
He felt cold all over and his hair stood on end.
With his strength, it is impossible for his voice to penetrate the restrictions in the well. Why can the demons and monsters in the well hear his voice
That doesn't make sense!
What's the problem
Xu Lian asked, "You think I'm your sister because you can hear my voice?"
The voice in the well said, "Yes, my sister came out of the well. Only my sister's voice can ignore the ban and come in. So, you must be my sister."
"..." Xu Lian was stunned and looked disheveled in the night wind.
There are only two possibilities for sound to be transmitted into the well.
First, his strength was so strong that he ignored the restrictions in the well;
Second, she is the sister who came out of the well.
However, he is only at the Marrow Refining Stage and it is impossible for him to ignore the restrictions in the well. Therefore, there is only the second possibility: is he really the sister in the well
Further conclusion is that the monsters in the well are not crazy, but he is the one who is crazy
Is he the deep well ice
"Goodbye!"
Xu Lian didn't want to talk to the being in the well anymore. If he continued talking, his worldview would be overturned and he would easily get frozen in the well.
He left the back garden and returned to the front yard to prepare for bed.
Just at this moment, he noticed a man standing in the yard. Just as Wang Cuiyun said, he was in his forties, with a very white face and was quite tall.
"Nima!"
Xu Lian was furious and said, "How dare you come?"
The man turned around and climbed over the wall.
Who could tolerate this? Xu Lian immediately ran after him.
