After discussing it, everyone was not in a hurry, the patriarch of the Tian family turned out a few low-level healing pills and distributed them to everyone, and then divided the people into two batches, the seriously injured ones were healed on the spot, and the lightly injured ones pulled the corpse of the forest-piercing beast over and divided the valuable materials on it.

After a busy time, it was already two hours later, and the condition of the injured person had improved a little, although the injury had not been reduced much, but it was already able to withstand the bumps in the road, and the materials on the body of the forest beast had also been processed, and the patriarch of the Tian family was going to give some to Qingyang, but Qingyang couldn't look down on these low-level materials, he resolutely didn't want to, and the patriarch of the Tian family had to give up.

The Tian family is not ordinarily poor, and the entire team of seven people, only three Qi refining cultivators have a talisman on their bodies, and the space inside is not very large, and the three forest-piercing beasts were all cleaned up by them, and they didn't even let go of the flesh and bones, plus the previous harvest, they were stuffed with the talisman.

Pack up, it's time to return, so Tian Dayong led the way in front, Tian Dazhuang was responsible for the break, and the others were slightly injured to help the seriously injured, all the way to the direction of Tianjiazhuang, in this case, the speed is not fast, it is good to be able to walk two or three hundred miles a day, Qingyang has just arrived, I don't understand the situation, and I am not in a hurry to hurry, I am ready to figure out the basic situation here before making a decision, so I followed the Tian family in the team unhurriedly.

Thousands of miles away, and this kind of inaccessible dense forest, there are still dangers on the way, fortunately, there are not many high-level demon beasts nearby, and occasionally encounter a first- or second-order demon beast, the Tian family solves it, and there is no need for Qingyang to make a move, but along the way, I found a few high-level spirit grasses.

Of course, the Tian family also collects spirit grass, but their cultivation is too low, and their divine thoughts are insufficient, and they may not be able to find it even after three or five meters apart, and it is completely up to luck to find spirit grass, and the harvest is not much.

Four days later, the group finally returned to Tianjiazhuang, the scale of Tianjiazhuang is not small, in a dense forest in a radius of three or four miles, with stones and wood to build a lot of houses, surrounded by more than a zhang high logs around the walled wall, on which there are monks on duty to prevent sudden attacks by wild beasts, there are also fields on the periphery, at this time there are many people working in the fields.

When Qingyang was on the road, he heard from the Tian family that the living conditions here are relatively poor, the population is too sparse, and there are many demon beasts, so immortal cultivators and mortals generally live together, immortal cultivators rely on mortals to provide services, and immortal cultivators provide protection for mortals.

Except for a few outsiders in Tianjiazhuang, most of them are Tian family members, there are about one or two thousand people in the whole village, mortals account for about ninety out of eight, there are more than thirty immortal cultivators with spiritual roots, and there are only seven in the Qi refining period, and the highest cultivation is the patriarch of the ninth layer of Qi refining.

The concentration of spiritual energy here is much better than that of the Kyushu Continent, and there are also a lot of demon beasts and spirit grasses, but the base of human monks is too small, so the number of high-level monks is not much, and it is already good like Tianjiacun, and it is also a small immortal cultivation family in the Kyushu Continent.

Tianjia Village has always been on duty on the wall, and when they saw Qingyang and his party, someone immediately reported to the village in a loud voice, and then the whole village came with cheers: "The patriarch is back." ”

In the past, the patriarch took people into the mountain, at least three or five days, more than seven or eight days, never more than ten days, but this time it was half a month, there was no news at all, the patriarch is the backbone of the whole village, Tian Dazhuang and Tian Dayong's strength in the village is also ranked third and fourth, if they all have an accident, the strength of the entire Tianjia Village will plummet, and now it is finally back, although many people have been injured, but no one is a good thing.

Soon a group of people went out of the village, and the leader was an old man at the seventh level of qi refining, this person was the same generation as the patriarch, called Tian Lisong, the second master of Tianjia Village, and he was responsible for the safety of the village when the patriarch was not there, so he said: "Patriarch, you can be regarded as back." ”

After a few days of recuperation, the injury of the patriarch of the Tian family has improved a lot, and when he saw the clansmen, he finally relaxed, and said: "Yes, I finally came back, this mission was too heavy, so I took everyone to the mountains for a few hundred miles, and as a result, I met a group of forest-piercing beasts, one of which was a fourth-order, even I was seriously injured, and a few of us were almost wiped out, if it wasn't for the little brother next to me to help, you might not have seen me." ”

Although there are more than thirty monks in the Tian family, but that is even the number of babies with spiritual roots, most of them are only the cultivation of the Open Pulse Realm, if the patriarch and Tian Dazhuang and Tian Dayong die in the forest, it will be almost a catastrophe for the Tian family, Tian Lisong hurriedly bowed deeply towards Qingyang, and said: "Thank you little brother for your help, my Tian family is grateful." ”

After thanking Qingyang, Tian Lisong finally got down to business, and said: "Patriarch, the town has sent someone to our village to urge again, if you don't come back, I will send someone to find you." ”

"Didn't you say give us three months to prepare? Why did I only go for half a month, and the town sent someone to urge me again? Could it be that something has changed? The patriarch of the Tian family frowned and asked.

Tian Lisong shook his head and said: "I don't know, the people sent by the town have been coming to our village for three days, and I have been eating and drinking, but the other party's temper is still getting worse day by day, I don't know how many things have been broken, I really don't know how to deal with it." ”

Hearing this, Tian Dazhuang said angrily: "It's really unreasonable! Our Tianjiazhuang is fixed every year, this year's offerings have already been collected, and now the sudden levy is not to say, the levy is still several times that of the past, so urgent, but also let people live? ”

Tian Dayong also said indignantly: "If it weren't for the levy, how could we use the risk to go deep into the mountains and forests this time?" How could they encounter a fourth-order forest-piercing beast, is this to force us to death? ”

Tianjiazhuang is under the jurisdiction of Jinjiling Town, every year is to be handed over to worship, according to the number of monks, Tianjiazhuang's annual offering is about thirty-four pieces, that is, a piece of spirit stone per person, fortunately, the surrounding resources are abundant, Tianjia Village has enough to worship after there is still a surplus for the people to use.

This year's as early as the first half of the year has been paid, who knows that half a month ago the town suddenly issued a notice, requiring Tianjiacun to pay another sixty-eight yuan, if you add the previous payment, it is already three times as much as in previous years, Tianjiazhuang is a poor village that has passed today and has no tomorrow, how can you make up so many spirit stones at one time? In desperation, the patriarch of the Tian family had to personally take his clan into the mountains to hunt demon beasts, but when he encountered the fourth-order forest-piercing beast, he almost threw his life into the mountains and forests.
