Chapter 192
Shui Yongquan hovered in mid-air, still in the appearance of a middle-aged man, looking down at Qiu Luoye in the canyon.
Qiu Luoye looked up at Shui Yongquan and shouted angrily: "If you have the guts, come down, come down and fight me!"
Shui Yongquan sneered: "You've already lost; what's the point of fighting?"
"I haven't lost; I'm still here!"
"What's the use of you being here? Your nest has been occupied by me. My men are sitting in your house. If he digs your contract out from under your house, you'll become a wandering ghost."
Ma Wu fed Li Banfeng some healing medicine and listened to the negotiation between the two local deities.
Li Banfeng was still alive; his hand had been fumbling in his pants pocket, and no one knew what he was fumbling for.
He held a flower in his hand, with deep purple petals and golden stamens, the petals continuously rotating around the stamens.
Ma Wu was very anxious; he wanted to take Li Banfeng to treat his wounds, but Yanzi reminded him not to move around. The two local deities were nearby and could take their lives at any moment.
How long would they negotiate?
What did the contract they mentioned refer to?
Why couldn't the contract be dug out?
Qiu Luoye roared at Shui Yongquan: "Bullshit, why did you break into my house? I have thousands of troops outside my house."
Shui Yongquan laughed: "You have twenty-two guards outside your house, all your trusted aides. You blockhead, you used all your trusted aides to guard your gate.
They were quite loyal and quite capable of fighting, but they're all dead, twenty-two in total. I'm not wrong, am I?
And those rabble at the canyon entrance, I fought them a few times, and they all surrendered. Look at this group of trash under your command; not a single one is useful."
Qiu Luoye stood in place, speechless for a long time.
Shui Yongquan continued: "If you're still not convinced, I'll have my men dig out the contract now and bring it in front of you for you to see!"
Qiu Luoye roared: "Then I'll rush into your house and dig out your contract too! We'll both become wandering ghosts together!"
Shui Yongquan's face darkened: "Playing the rogue, are you?"
"I am playing the rogue, what can you do about it?" Qiu Luoye was about to rush into Shui Yongquan's territory again.
Could he kill his way to Shui Yongquan's nest?
Impossible.
Except for the dozen or so subordinates beside him, Qiu Luoye's entire army had been wiped out. Shui Yongquan couldn't beat him in a one-on-one fight, but there was no need for a one-on-one fight now.
Qiu Luoye's action was purely reckless.
But if he really wanted to be reckless, Shui Yongquan would indeed be in a difficult position to deal with him.
Qiu Luoye was too capable of fighting. If he were to risk his life, half of the living beings in these two territories might die, and Shui Yongquan would also be injured.
Woo-woo~
Qiu Luoye let out a long roar, and just as he was about to rush out of the canyon, Shui Yongquan backed down: "How about this, you've lost anyway, cede thirty miles of land to me, and this matter is settled; what do you think?"
This was a significant concession. Logically, Shui Yongquan could have swallowed all of Qiu Luoye's territory.
But Qiu Luoye didn't appreciate it: "I'm not convinced! I won't give it! I'll fight you to the end!"
Having been neighbors for so many years, Shui Yongquan could be considered to understand Qiu Luoye's temperament.
Qiu Luoye wasn't a rogue who wouldn't admit defeat; he was being reckless here purely because he couldn't let go of his pride.
Shui Yongquan looked around at everyone: "Everyone, let's go back first. I won't forget the favor of those who helped me, Shui Yongquan, today, and the promised rewards won't be lacking."
Ma Wu took Li Banfeng and was about to leave when Shui Yongquan shouted: "Brother Ma Wu, wait a moment, these things belong to Brother Li Qi."
He handed the Judge's Pen and the monthly calendar to Ma Wu, and took a packet of healing medicine from his bosom: "Take him back to the plot, use the spring water of the plot, and have him take the medicine; perhaps he can still save his life.
These two Water-Falling Gates also belong to Brother Li Qi. Seeing that it's not convenient for him to carry them now, I'll have them sent over another day.
Once I've finished dealing with the matters here, I'll also transfer the ten miles of land to you."
Ma Wu took the medicine, mounted Yanzi, carried Li Banfeng, and ran toward the plot.
Li Banfeng was still moving.
His hand kept fumbling in his pants pocket.
"Old Seven, what are you looking for?
Old Seven, what are you holding in your hand?
Old Seven, don't move around..."
Li Banfeng was looking for the key; his arm bone was broken, and his finger bones were broken too, so he couldn't pull it out.
After walking for more than ten minutes, Li Banfeng suddenly opened his eyes, and with a violent gasp, he flipped off the bagworm.
Residential cultivation third-layer technique: Arrow-Like Return to Heart.
"Old Seven!" Ma Wu was shocked and had Yanzi stop immediately.
Yanzi was running wildly; it wasn't easy to stop such a large body.
She glided for a long way, and by the time Ma Wu jumped off her back, Li Banfeng was nowhere to be seen.
"Old Seven!" Ma Wu led his men to search everywhere, but couldn't find a trace for a long time.
Relying on the strength of Arrow-Like Return to Heart, Li Banfeng finally pulled out the key and opened the portable residence.
There was no sound in the room.
No breathing sound from his wife.
Li Banfeng lay on the ground, dragging his body toward Did Honglian with one hand.
Crawling close to Did Honglian, Li Banfeng patted Did Honglian and pointed at the record player.
Did Honglian watched Li Banfeng, who was covered in blood and flesh, and couldn't help but feel secretly happy.
Fortunately, this crazy man returned.
As long as he is alive, at least I still have a chance to get out.
After that vicious woman is gone, it won't be so difficult to deceive this crazy man.
It's a pity that this crazy man fought to this point and still didn't get...
What is he holding in his hand?
Li Banfeng placed the flower in front of Did Honglian.
He had been protecting it carefully all along, not damaging a single petal or leaf.
The petals rotated around the flower heart; this was one of the most precious medicinal herbs, the Xuanqing Flower.
This crazy man actually got it!
Li Banfeng held up the flower, pointed at his wife, and looked at Did Honglian.
Did Honglian bloomed, and a whirlwind rose in the lotus heart, taking the Xuanqing Flower into the lotus heart.
A halo rippled, and Did Honglian pondered secretly.
Not refining the elixir definitely won't do; I will completely lose the crazy man's trust in the future.
Refining the elixir is possible, but it depends on how fast I refine it.
If I refine it slowly, and that vicious woman dies, I can't be blamed for this matter. This crazy man is at least reasonable; at least he is still...
Li Banfeng was looking at Did Honglian.
A pair of eyes full of blood and filth seemed to be able to see through Did Honglian's thoughts.
Why is he looking at me like this?
Did Honglian looked at the silent record player, and the halo on her body increased by a few layers.
Forget it.
I still have to rely on this crazy man to get out in the future.
Refine the elixir as soon as possible. If it still can't save this vicious woman, then I really can't be blamed.
In the canyon, Qiu Luoye was still roaring: "Shui Yongquan, I'll fight you to the end, I'm not convinced, I'm just not convinced!"
Vines and sand flew, and Qiu Luoye stomped back and forth in the valley as if he had gone crazy.
Shui Yongquan sighed long: "Haven't you made enough trouble? If you've made enough, it's time to talk about serious business."
"I have nothing to say to you!" Qiu Luoye turned back to look at his dozen subordinates: "Brothers, tear this old thing to pieces, and I will reward you heavily!"
The dozen strange creatures looked at each other, none of them moving.
Qiu Luoye said angrily: "It's come to this, and you're still afraid to fight!"
Shui Yongquan looked at those dozen strange creatures and directly pointed it out: "If Qiu Luoye is no longer a local deity, are you still willing to follow him?"
Everyone was silent, only the pine tree man was straightforward.
He straightened his waist, looked at Shui Yongquan, and said: "Shopkeeper Qiu treated me with kindness. If he is no longer a local deity, I will definitely not follow him in the future..."
Bang!
Qiu Luoye knocked the pine tree man to the ground with his trunk: "I was blind to have taken a fancy to you trash. You all go, go, I'll fight Shui Yongquan one-on-one!"
The dozen strange creatures fulfilled Qiu Luoye's wish and all ran away.
Qiu Luoye shouted at Shui Yongquan: "Come on, old ghost, let's fight!"
"Fight my ass!" Shui Yongquan shouted angrily. "Everyone's gone, who are you putting on a show for? If I had really dug out your contract just now, how would you live in the future?
Go to Neizhou to be a servant for others, serving tea and water, making beds, aren't you ashamed at your age?"
Qiu Luoye roared: "I'm not staying in the New Land anymore, I'm going outside to make a name for myself. I've had enough of this broken place."
Shui Yongquan sneered: "Stop blowing hot air here. Your blockhead brain can only survive in the New Land. Try going outside? You won't last eight days before your seventh-day memorial service!"
Qiu Luoye sat on the ground, quite disdainfully: "That sounds mysterious. I'll go outside tomorrow and conquer a piece of territory for you to see."
Shui Yongquan nodded: "Go, don't go tomorrow, go today. You don't have to go far, go to Green Bay and meet Green Flower; don't talk about conquering territory, if he lets you live for ten minutes in Green Bay, it'll be your good fortune!
Old Elephant Qiu, if you continue to be reckless, I'll really dig out your contract. Think about it yourself, how much suffering did you endure to get this piece of land today? Quit while you're ahead!"
Qiu Luoye calmed down a little and said to Shui Yongquan: "Thirty miles is too much, can you ask for less?"
"No!" Shui Yongquan said with a dark face. "If I had lost this battle, would you have spared me? I've been accommodating enough to you!"
Qiu Luoye curled his long trunk and said: "I only have a hundred miles of territory in total, and now I have to cede thirty percent to you."
Shui Yongquan laughed in anger: "Can you count? A hundred miles square is ten thousand units of land. Thirty miles square is only nine hundred units. I'm asking for less than ten percent of the land, what are you heartbroken about?"
Qiu Luoye used his trunk to curl up a branch and calculated for a long time on the ground, but couldn't figure it out.
Shui Yongquan looked at his calculation method; it was the most simple addition.
Shui Yongquan closed his eyes and shook his head repeatedly: "How did you earn so much cultivation with this brain? Stop calculating, I didn't lie to you. Hurry up and transfer the land to me; I have other things to discuss with you."
"What other things?"
"We two must have been plotted against," Shui Yongquan floated to the canyon entrance. "Three times in a row, people came to reclaim land on the border of our two territories, and three times they failed.
These people aren't here to reclaim land; they're clearly here to stir up trouble."
"They aren't here to stir up trouble," Qiu Luoye swung his trunk. "I asked them; they are all hunters from Green Bay, never reclaimed land before, and wanted to come and try."
"Three times in a row on the border line? Is this such a coincidence? Don't say your brain doesn't turn; they might really be ordinary hunters, but someone is giving them advice behind their backs. We must be careful about this."
Qiu Luoye got up, preparing to transfer the land to Shui Yongquan. Walking on the road, he suddenly asked: "Who is the young man guarding Hundred Vine Valley?"
"A person I hired."
"How much money did you give him? I'll hire him too, and we'll fight another battle."
Shui Yongquan really didn't know how to communicate with him: "Old Elephant, are you joking, or are you serious?"
"I'm serious. I think this person is not bad, and I have the intention to take him in as a general!"
"General, and a pancake too!" Shui Yongquan pondered which piece of land was suitable. "Let me tell you, don't have any ideas about him. He's not the type to be a slave for others."
"Hmph, if he's not a slave, what does he want to be? Even if he makes it to the top, he's still a slave in Neizhou." Qiu Luoye looked at the canyon again. "I wonder if that kid is still alive?"
Fragrant~
What is fragrant?
Li Banfeng suddenly woke up and wanted to get up, but couldn't.
He was still lying on the ground, a large patch of blood on his body had coagulated, and his whole body was stuck to the ground.
He didn't know how many bones were broken; his four limbs couldn't exert any strength.
Li Banfeng raised his head with difficulty and saw Did Honglian in front of him.
The flower leaves were tightly closed. Could it be that the elixir hadn't been refined yet?
Could his wife still hold on?
Why wasn't there any halo on Did Honglian?
Was she refining the elixir at all?
Li Banfeng looked at Did Honglian angrily.
Did Honglian unfolded her flower leaves, but there were no lotus seeds in the lotus heart.
"You weren't refining the elixir? Where is my flower? Where is the Xuanqing Flower?"
Did Honglian didn't know how to explain, but she didn't have to explain either.
"Fragrant~"
Li Banfeng turned his head with difficulty.
Whoosh~
He heard it wrong; that sound wasn't "fragrant," it was "husband."
The breathing was unstable, so it was inevitable that the tone would change a bit.
Huff~
"Husband~"
A cloud of steam wrapped around Li Banfeng.
Li Banfeng whispered: "Wife, I'm back."
PS: Banfeng has made it through, and his wife has also pulled through.
What exactly have the local deities experienced?
