Chapter 348

Li Banfeng sat in Yao Lao's courtyard, watching a group of stone men over a meter tall moving bricks and mixing mud and sand, building a wall.

Outside the courtyard, a kiln was set up, and several stone men were firing bricks.

When Qiu Zhiheng went up the mountain, he only carried a sack of stones on his back.

Sprinkling two buckets of clear water on this sack of stones, the stones turned into craftsmen: masons, bricklayers, carpenters, all kinds of crafts were known.

"Brother Qiu, where did you find this stuff?"

Qiu Zhiheng said: "Bought it from a high-level Craft Cultivator. I liked Craft Cultivator things before. If I hadn't been forced into being a Joy Cultivator, I really would have wanted to be a Craft Cultivator."

Forced?

Forced by Lu Dongliang?

Li Banfeng didn't ask more about this.

"Brother, from now on I will guard Yao Lao here. As long as the news doesn't leak out, outsiders won't know Yao Lao has had an accident, and they won't dare to find trouble with Yaowang Gou.

You don't need to worry about the pharmacy's business. It's a bit far, but business can still be managed."

Li Banfeng asked: "What about sister-in-law? Moving over here with you?"

Qiu Zhiheng sighed softly. This matter was indeed difficult to handle.

He didn't want his wife to suffer with him, but he was a Joy Cultivator, and his wife had to stay by his side.

"I'll go back and discuss it with her."

Li Banfeng nodded: "You tell sister-in-law to wait a few days before moving over. By then, let's take turns guarding on the mountain."

"You want to guard here? That won't do. You are a Traveling Cultivator, you have to walk everywhere, how can you always stay in one place?"

"Anyway, I have a way."

Li Banfeng had been thinking about this one thing for the past few days: who to let look after Yaowang Gou.

In the end, he came to a conclusion: letting any Local Deity come to Yaowang Gou was inappropriate.

Yaowang Gou's popularity wasn't very prosperous, certainly not comparable to Green Water Bay.

But this was a formal territory, a formal territory of Puluo Continent's three-tenths. Which new Local Deity wouldn't covet it? Even if he invited Feng Daiku, it was hard to say whether she would have other thoughts.

Just guard it, just wait for Yao Lao to wake up.

I'll guard here for a month first, walk around the nearby mountains when there's nothing to do, don't go far, just support with elixirs if it really doesn't work, and change with Qiu Zhiheng next month.

After a few days, the house was repaired, and Li Banfeng also had an in-depth understanding of the nearby environment.

This mountain terrain was very complex, with intersecting mountain roads, making it easy for people to get lost.

Yao Lao's courtyard was in a position that was accessible but easy to defend and hard to attack. This position was extremely difficult to find. This was the vision of a famous general of a generation.

And this place was extremely remote. Li Banfeng couldn't help but suspect how the God of Misfortune found it back then.

As long as the news didn't leak out, Li Banfeng felt that no one would find this place within a few years.

But at noon this day, while he was strolling in the mountains, he found an old man had come up.

This old man was wearing coarse cloth clothes, wrapping his head with a towel, carrying a basket on his back, holding a sickle in his hand, looking like a medicine picker.

Where is it not good to pick medicine, why come here?

He walked up the mountain along the path. At the rate he was walking, he would discover Yao Lao's small courtyard in a while.

Li Banfeng wanted to stop him, but if he really did that, it would arouse suspicion.

Might as well scare him away with the paper girl.

Li Banfeng returned to the Personal Residence, took the paper girl, and when he looked out again, the old man had walked to another mountain road.

Li Banfeng let out a long breath and turned back to Yao Lao's courtyard.

Just an old man, actually no need to be so nervous. Even if he saw Yao Lao's courtyard, so what? In Puluo Continent, there were many desolate mountains and wild ridges, and occasionally encountering a household wasn't a fresh thing...

Wait.

Li Banfeng walked near the courtyard and heard movement with his earring.

It seemed like more than one old man had come.

There was another old man who had already entered Yao Lao's room.

Hearing this old man's voice, Li Banfeng's sweat came down.

He recognized this old man.

"Old Yao, stop pretending. Do you think I don't know? You just don't want to see me, right?

If you don't get up, don't blame me for being impolite. I'm going to take away all the good things in this room.

These flags, this blade, where can I find such good things?"

Pan Dehai!

This was Pan Dehai's voice!

Why did he come?

"Where did you hide your contract?" Pan Dehai smiled at Yao Lao. "You won't tell me, right? If you don't tell me, don't blame me for digging. I'll dig through every corner of this room, and I don't believe I won't dig it out!"

Li Banfeng gritted his teeth.

He was now a seventh-layer Traveling Cultivator, plus a sixth-layer Residential Cultivator.

Could he beat Pan Dehai?

A frontal hard fight certainly wouldn't work, but if he could drag Pan Dehai into the Personal Residence, he would have a chance of winning.

The Lady alone could clean up the Mountain-Pulling Master. If she joined forces with Hong Ying, they should be able to deal with Pan Dehai.

I'll be a helper on the side, and a group of magic treasures can also help. The key is how to lure him in.

Li Banfeng was thinking about countermeasures when he suddenly heard someone talking in the courtyard.

"Looks like we came late."

"Not late, just in time."

A strong sense of danger struck. Li Banfeng instinctively wanted to take out the key.

Don't rush, can't act rashly, otherwise he might not even have the chance to hide the key.

He was a sixth-layer Residential Cultivator. With the talent of a Residential Cultivator, he shouldn't attract attention.

But what was the quality of these two people in the courtyard?

They knew Pan Dehai was in the room, yet they were so calm.

Would they have already discovered him?

Relying on his familiarity with the terrain, Li Banfeng hid in a secret place. The view here was still okay, and he could barely see the situation in the courtyard.

Coincidentally, that medicine-picking old man walked toward the courtyard.

Why was this old man so good at timing?

Where is it not good to go, why come here.

"Is anyone there? I'm passing by, asking for a drink of water!" The old man stood at the courtyard gate, looking into the courtyard.

Standing in the courtyard were a beggar and a gorgeously dressed man.

The man was over fifty, looked at the old man at the gate, and said to the beggar: "A delivery of death has come."

The beggar shook his head: "Don't worry about him first, anyway he can't see us."

Ordinary people really couldn't see them. Li Banfeng had a cultivation of seven plus six, and still had to rely on the technique of the Golden Eye to see them.

The beggar said to the room: "Great virtue, come out, we haven't seen each other for a while."

Pan Dehai walked out of the room, looked at the two in the courtyard: "You two, long time no see. What kind of fragrant wind blew you here today?"

The middle-aged man said: "This is strange, as if this is your home. I was just about to ask you, what did you come here for?"

Pan Dehai smiled: "I came to see an old friend."

"Friend? Are you worthy? When did Old Yao ever recognize you as a friend?"

Pan Dehai raised his eyebrows: "We are childhood friends, naturally good friends. Old Yao has no children, his family property naturally belongs to me.

Lin Dexing, you certainly don't count as Old Yao's friend. What kind of thing you are, you know in your heart."

Lin Dexing!

Li Banfeng gritted his teeth.

This bastard!

Yao Lao's life was ruined by this bastard.

He was actually still alive.

His cultivation had also reached the Cloud Above.

Must find a way to kill him.

Lin Dexing looked at Pan Dehai: "Don't talk this useless nonsense. I'm too lazy to look at you more. While I'm in a good mood, get out of here."

Pan Dehai straightened his expression: "That's not how you say it, right? I came first."

"So what if you came first? If you want to die, say so!"

The beggar opened his mouth: "Talk properly, don't hurt the harmony. Since Old Pan came first, let him chat with his old friend."

This beggar's voice was very familiar. Li Banfeng seemed to have heard it somewhere.

But limited by the angle of view, he couldn't see the beggar's figure clearly.

Pan Dehai looked at the beggar, his tone much more polite: "Green brother, you are a sect ancestor, different from this bird man Lin Dexing."

Green brother?

Green Water Beggar?

Li Banfeng felt a numbness all over his body.

This time there was trouble.

What to use to fight the Green Water Beggar?

The Green Water Beggar smiled and looked at Pan Dehai: "Tell me, how am I different from Brother Lin?"

Pan Dehai said: "You have status and identity, how can you lower yourself to be mentioned in the same breath as such a dog or cat."

Green Water Beggar smiled: "I'm a beggar, you still think so highly of me?"

Pan Dehai waved his hand: "Heroes don't ask where they come from. I cherish you as a hero."

Green Water Beggar smiled with a face full of abscesses: "You still say I'm a hero?"

Pan Dehai nodded: "I have always respected you as a hero. But since you are a hero, we have to talk about some reason.

By age, I am your elder brother. By cultivation, I am your senior. By righteousness, shouldn't we talk about respecting the old and virtuous? By small details, shouldn't there be a first-come, first-served? By etiquette, I respect you a foot, you respect me a zhang. This makes sense, right?"

Green Water Beggar looked at Lin Dexing: "Don't say, this really makes sense."

"This Pan is the most shameless, let's not talk nonsense with him!" Lin Dexing rushed directly toward Pan Dehai.

His movement was neat, his footsteps were clean, and there wasn't a single redundant movement. Such exquisite moves were clearly a Martial Cultivator.

Pan Dehai frowned: "Young Master Lin, this is where you are wrong. How can you bully the few with the many?"

Lin Dexing suddenly felt like he had stepped on cotton. His legs were soft and powerless, his footsteps were stumbling. Just as he walked to Pan Dehai, he felt he couldn't use his martial arts, couldn't occupy the advantage, and retreated.

Virtue Cultivator technique, see virtue and think of equality.

Lin Dexing looked at Green Water Beggar, waiting for Green Water Beggar to strike with him.

Green Water Beggar looked at Pan Dehai: "I didn't strike just now, does this also count as bullying the few with the many?"

Pan Dehai said: "Don't adjust your shoes in a melon field, don't adjust your hat under a plum tree. You stand here watching, doesn't it arouse suspicion?"

Green Water Beggar's vision blurred. Pan Dehai's technique affected him.

Green Water Beggar nodded with a smile: "Can I not look?"

He closed his eyes.

Lin Dexing was shocked, feeling that Green Flower's attitude was a bit strange; he seemed not to want to exert effort.

Green Flower didn't exert effort, Lin Dexing had to exert effort himself. Yaowang Gou was very important to him; he wanted to use Yaowang Gou's popularity to guard his cultivation.

He approached Pan Dehai again. Pan Dehai said slowly: "Virtue is the foundation of virtue. Fighting without declaring is losing virtue. Losing one virtue, the power of one virtue is heavier than a thousand jun!"

Lin Dexing's footsteps became slower and slower, as if a big mountain was pressing on him.

Virtue Cultivator technique, thick virtue carries things.

Lin Dexing said angrily: "Dog thief, what virtue are you talking about? How many immoral things have you done over the years? Can you count them yourself?"

"Speaking rudely, losing another virtue."

Lin Dexing's spine bent, almost planting on the ground.

He turned to Green Flower for help.

Green Flower closed his eyes and remained indifferent.

Pan Dehai said: "You are powerless to fight, yet you seek help. This act is contemptible. Losing another virtue."

Lin Dexing wanted to rush up and fight Pan Dehai. Pan Dehai said again: "Overestimating one's ability is losing virtue."

Lin Dexing couldn't support his body and wanted to retreat. Pan Dehai said again: "Fearing battle when facing the enemy is losing virtue."

Every time he lost a virtue, Lin Dexing had to bear another thousand jun of weight. In front of Pan Dehai, before Lin Dexing could wait for the chance to strike, his whole body had already been pressed to the ground.

Pan Dehai looked at Lin Dexing: "I spent a lot of effort to take advantage of Old Yao. Yaowang Gou is very close to Haichi Ridge. As the old saying goes, the near water tower gets the moon first. This place should belong to me. I advise you not to fight with me."

Green Flower said from the side: "If you really want to talk about near, Green Water Bay should be closer to Yaowang Gou."

Pan Dehai smiled: "Since it's near, you shouldn't strike. As the old saying goes, rabbits don't eat the grass around their nest. You should change to another place."

While speaking, Pan Dehai secretly increased the technique. Lin Dexing was pressed until he vomited blood.

Green Flower frowned: "As the old saying goes, you have to look at the owner when beating a dog."

Pan Dehai smiled: "The old saying also says, kill the chicken to show the monkey."

While speaking, Pan Dehai increased the technique again. He wanted to kill Lin Dexing first, then slowly deal with Green Flower.

Green Flower sighed: "Old Pan, do you really want to occupy Yaowang Gou?"

"Green brother, I've decided on Yaowang Gou."

"I'm already in front of you, yet you're still so tough. I really don't know who gave you the courage!" Green Water Beggar wiped his sweat and threw it at Pan Dehai.

Pan Dehai hurriedly dodged, and the technique lost control.

Lin Dexing, who had shaken off the heavy pressure, rushed straight toward Yao Lao's room. His plan was to let Green Flower deal with Pan Dehai, while he went to dig up Yao Lao's contract.

Li Banfeng prepared to strike, but didn't expect Pan Dehai to suddenly block the door and fight with Lin Dexing.

If the two sides were separated by two zhang, the Virtue Cultivator would take advantage.

But now the two sides were separated by three or five feet, how could a Virtue Cultivator beat a Martial Cultivator.

After fighting three rounds, Pan Dehai was covered in blood, and his round-framed glasses were also smashed. Fortunately, he had many magic treasures on him, and a long sword temporarily forced Lin Dexing back.

"I've decided on this place today, no one can take it away!" Pan Dehai wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and spat on the ground.

Li Banfeng was stunned for a long time. He didn't understand why Pan Dehai was so brave today.

He wanted Yaowang Gou so much?

Did something happen to Haichi Ridge?

Green Flower opened his eyes and walked forward two steps: "You decided on it? What do you rely on to decide on it? I'll go dig his contract now, let's see if you dare to touch me."

Pan Dehai was very scared. He really didn't dare to touch Green Flower. If he touched him, it would be over.

But he didn't move, still standing at the door.

Li Banfeng was ready. He wanted to sneak attack Green Flower.

Green Flower flashed in front of Pan Dehai: "Try touching me!"

"You are so arrogant, is it that you can't be touched?"

A voice came from outside the courtyard. Everyone looked out, only to find that the old man who asked for water hadn't left yet.

He could actually see the three people in the courtyard?

How did he see them?

The old man entered the courtyard. Green Flower asked: "Who are you?"

"You don't need to care who I am." The old man waved his hand, and a young man suddenly appeared beside him.

Li Banfeng was shocked. He recognized this young man.

The old man said to the young man: "Xiao Genzi, give me the bucket."

Xiao Genzi handed the bucket to the old man.

The old man carried the bucket and said to Green Flower: "Today I want to touch you."

PS: What is the origin of this old man?
