The village of the man with firewood is located at the end of the river, backed by the mountains, about dozens of miles away from the county seat, the village is surrounded by mulberry trees, the scenery is beautiful, and there is a bit of paradise artistic conception.

The man carrying the firewood led him to a simple mud brick house in the village, stopped, and reached out to push open the dilapidated wooden door.

"Dad, you're back. A girl about sixteen years old with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes hurriedly greeted her.

"This is my daughter Li Jing. The man beckoned Xu Chen in, and at the same time asked his daughter to pour him a cup of hot tea to warm up.

Through conversation, Xu Chen learned that this village is called Lijia Village, which is a small village, with only about 100 households, and most of the villagers are mainly engaged in farming.

This middle-aged man's name is Li Jiunong, his wife died early, and the father and daughter relied on a few acres of thin fields handed down by their ancestors to barely survive, and sometimes he would go to the side of the mountain to go around a few times and hunt some hares to improve the food.

He also found out from Li Jiunong's mouth that the folk customs here are simple, except for Li Dashao, the richest man in the village, who occasionally goes to the city to catch the market, everyone else stays in the village and is busy with farm work, and rarely goes out to walk around, etc., Xu Chen has a lot of peace of mind, thinking that it should be safe to live here temporarily, and no one will know where I come from.

After dinner, Li Jiunong cleaned up a clean house and arranged for Xu Chen to live.

There was nothing to say all night, and when Xu Chen got up the next day, Li Jiunong pushed the door in and took a few of his own clean clothes to change into for him, and took out Xu Chen's tattered clothes to throw them away.

Xu Chen couldn't help but feel sad, this set of divine warrior robes was obtained by him with his strength, and now that he has changed into this new set of clothes, does it mean that he has completely bid farewell to Chongwu Mountain?

When Li Jiunong beckoned Xu Chen to breakfast, he saw that the door was kicked open with his foot.

"Oh, it's a good day, and there's still meat to eat. ”

A yin and yang strange voice floated in, Xu Chen looked up, and found a person with sharp beak monkey gills and double triangular eyes breaking in, he stared at the three people in the room with a smile, followed by several dogs.

As soon as they saw the arrival, the faces of Li Jiunong's father and daughter became extremely ugly, Li Jiunong greeted him tremblingly, and said in a low voice: "Manager Li, please sit down." ”

"Sit on a fart, surnamed Li, when will you pay back the money you owe our young master?"

Li Jiunong begged in a low voice and said: "Mr. Li, let's open the grace, the year is not good now, this year is busy, and there is no surplus wealth at home except for food......

This guy didn't even look at him, and said in a threatening tone, "So you're not ready to pay back?"

Xu Chen was stunned for a moment, he didn't know what was going on, but when he saw Li Jing sitting on the side trembling, he hurriedly comforted her a few words, and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Li owes money to others?"

Li Jing said with a crying voice: "My mother died the year before last and had no money for burial, so Master Li at the east end of the village borrowed fifteen taels of silver, and my father has no money to pay it back. ”

"But they won't be so fierce when they ask for debts, right?" Xu Chen secretly sighed, if only my entanglement hadn't been lost, this money would be able to help Li Jiunong pay it back immediately.

Who knew that Li Jing's next words made Xu Chen listen more and more wrong.

After the funeral, Li Dashao did not rush to urge Li Jiunong to repay the money, but he didn't know that it later became a usury, and after two years, the interest was rolled, and now he has to repay forty-five taels of silver even with interest.

After hearing this, Xu Chen slammed his angry fist on the table, stood up and shouted: "You guys are robbing, it's even more shameless than a robber!"

"Yo, this is a wild boy from there, who dares to talk to me like this!" This Manager Li saw that someone was scolding him, and immediately squinted at Xu Chen.

Seeing that he was thin and weak, Manager Li couldn't help but sneer, and said slowly: "Look at your poor ghost, I don't bother you to care." ”

"You don't care, the master still has to worry about you!" Xu Chen shouted and said: "Borrow fifteen taels of silver, and actually have to pay back forty-five taels, do you still have a royal law, if this matter is known to the emperor and his old man, he must pick your skin!"

"Hmph, don't scare me with these useless things. Manager Li said coldly: "The mountain here is high and the emperor is far away, and everything in the village is decided by our young master!"

After saying that, his triangular eyes fell on the little girl with bad intentions.

"Ah, I can't see it, it's only been a few years, and the little girl looks quite smart. I said Brother Li, if you don't have the money to pay back, it's better to let this girl go to the house to be a maid, then it is indispensable to eat and drink spicy food, in case of good luck, the young master directly accepted her as a concubine, that is the blessing you cultivated in your previous life. ”

"You're deceiving people too much!"

Xu Chen was furious, and was about to swing his fist to hit this despicable villain, Li Jiunong already felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade Xu Chen, and then said to Manager Li with a smile: "Don't joke, Manager, my daughter is still a child, you can do it." ”

"Don't forget that you begged our young master to borrow money at the beginning!" Manager Li turned his face and said viciously: "If you can't come up with the money today, this girl will have to go with us." ”

"I think you're tired of robbing people in broad daylight!" Xu Chen rushed forward, opened his five fingers and slapped him in the face!

"Smack!"

Manager Li vomited blood and flew out on the spot, lying on the ground and screaming in pain like a pig: "Oops, my leg is broken, why don't you come and help me!"

A few doglegs were stunned, usually they are used to being rampant and domineering in the village, and anyone who sees them has to bow their heads for three points, but today there is a hairy boy who came out of nowhere and actually dares to hit their manager.

"What are you doing in a daze, kill this little wild seed for me!" Mr. Li barked at his men.

Seeing these few strong dogs pounce on them, Xu Chen smiled coldly, pushed his hands out flat, and a wave of qi suddenly burst in!

"Ahhh......h

With a scream full of fear, these bastards were all shocked by Xu Chen's qi wave and flew outside the house.

"Brother Xu, you are so good!" Seeing that Xu Chen had instantly repelled the bad guys, Li Jing shouted happily.

Xu Chen smiled softly at her, then turned around and jumped out of the house, ready to teach these bastards another lesson.

But these people were so frightened that they got up from the ground and ran like lost dogs, only hating their father and mother for giving them two legs.

Seeing this situation, Li Jiunong lowered his head and complained, and hurriedly said to Xu Chen: "Xu Gongzi, run quickly, otherwise they will call someone to come, and you will suffer a big loss." ”

"Really?" Xu Chen smiled faintly, returned to the house and continued to drink porridge, not panicking at all.

Seeing Li Jiunong's face showing surprise on his face when he entered the house, Xu Chen smiled and said, "Uncle Li, if I leave, what will you do?" These guys will definitely vent their anger on you, so I can't leave now, just wait here for them to call someone." ”

"Oh, Xu Gongzi, you don't know, that Li Dashao has learned an amazing spell, and when he hears that his subordinates are beaten, how can he give up! If you don't leave, it's too late, although I owe him money, but I am a fellow villager after all, and he won't do anything to me." ”

Hearing Li Jiunong say that this evil young man knows spells, Xu Chen couldn't help but be stunned, and thought to himself: "My subordinates are so arrogant, it can be seen that this Li Dashao is not a good thing, he is still a demon clan, it seems that I must not spare him today!"

So he pretended to be very relaxed and said: "That's really a coincidence, I also learned a little spell, wait to meet that Li Da Shao, maybe it's still the same sect, and then I can also help Uncle Li say a few good words, so that he can forgive your debt." ”

Li Jiunong didn't know if what Xu Chen said was true or false, seeing that he was stubborn, he had to force a smile to eat with him.

Don't look at what Xu Chen said so politely just now, in fact, he was already thinking about how to beat this evil Li Dashao in the future, he didn't believe that there would be a ruthless character hidden in such a remote mountain village.

After breakfast, Xu Chen heard someone outside roaring: "Where is that wild boy? Get out of here quickly, otherwise the master will burn down this house." ”

"Haha, it's really arrogant!" Xu Chen rolled up his sleeves and strode out.

The beaten Manager Li covered his swollen face and said to the young man on the horse: "Young master, it was this bastard who beat me, and he still scolded you for being a brute!"

Xu Chen's calm eyes suddenly shot out two rays of light, and he said coldly, "I haven't scolded you." However, just because of these hurtful things you have done, you deserve to be beaten by someone!"

"Boy, you're looking for death!" This Li Dashao dismounted and took off his gorgeous clothes, and punched Xu Chen.

Seeing that Xu Chen was very thin, this Li Dashao was very light on the enemy, and the fist that he waved over didn't even have any traces of the fluctuation of his true qi.

Xu Chen sneered, reached out and grabbed his attacking fist like lightning, and then pulled hard, this Li Dashao suddenly fell into the mud.

"Hahahaha!" The villagers who ran over to see the excitement burst into laughter.

Li Dashao was ashamed, and hurriedly turned over with a "carp fight", condensed his true qi in his hand, and turned it into a fire sword and stabbed directly at Xu Chen's throat.

Xu Chen was even more afraid of him, this Li Dashao was cultivating fire-based spells, and his own water-based spells were just enough to restrain him, and there was no suspense in this fight.

"Boom!"

Xu Chen flew with one hand, and the ice hammer formed by the condensation of the water aura directly collided with Li Dashao's spell!

In the blink of an eye, the ice hammer directly smashed the fire sword into a little spark, and then blasted towards Li Dashao's chest with all the rage!

Li Dashao never expected that this unattractive young man would be so powerful, and in a hurry, he raised his hand to meet him, wanting to use his arm to block the ice hammer made by Xu Chen's spell.

Where could he resist it? The ice hammer that could smash the boulder easily smashed Li Dashao's body protection true qi, and then hit him solidly on the arm.

"Ouch!" Li Dashao's throat involuntarily let out a cry of pain, and the cold and numb pain was about to pour into the dantian.

"I'm going to kill you!"

Although Li Dashao suffered a loss, his reaction was extremely fast, and after an angry scolding, the light in his uninjured left hand flashed, and a sharp fire sword stabbed Xu Chen's throat again.

"I really don't know what to do!" The blue light in Xu Chen's hand flashed, and the sword was not a fire sword that blocked the attack, but directly slashed at Li Dashao.

He had already seen that Li Dashao was just the strength of the Yuanying Realm, but he had already broken through this realm, and it was really suitable to practice with this guy now.

"Die, bastard!" Li Dashao's face was hideous, and he continuously poured his true qi into the blade of the fire sword, wanting to kill Xu Chen with one blow.

Xu Chen took a few steps back, and then deftly dodged the fire sword attacked by Li Dashao, and at the same time, he used his mind to drive his sword to turn back and pursue this fire sword.

"Good boy, do you want to cut off my sword?" Li Dashao felt that he was extremely despised by his opponent, and in a fit of rage, he clenched his hand and ordered the fire sword to immediately turn around and attack Xu Chen.

With the sound of Jin Ge intertwining, Li Dashao's fire sword was once again defeated by Xu Chen, and the sparks splashing everywhere almost burned his hair!

Li Jiunong, who had been restless, saw that Xu Chen was completely in the upper hand in the battle, so he put down his hanging heart.
