When Collins saw Blackstone's desperate expression, he suddenly saw himself being forced to endorse by his brother.

At that moment, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he finally understood!

It turns out that there are hard-working people like him in this village!!

*

The despair of the two teenagers Li Li could not understand.

She also carried a bag of things on her back, which were all kinds of food and spices that Hayley wanted before leaving, and she bought almost everything she could buy in the market.

Hailey seemed to be preparing food for the villagers, and when she saw Li leaving, she waved happily.

"Li Li!"

Li Li stepped forward, unloaded the cloth bag from his shoulder, and took out the spices from the outside one by one.

Hayley looked at them with delight, her blue eyes curled into beautiful shapes.

"And this."

Li Li took out the last thing.

"What is this?"

Hayley was surprised to take the strange-looking object, which looked like a corset for decoration, but it was made of some kind of metal.

Li Li looked at her seriously: "This can better protect your waist and abdomen, and it is not easy to die." ”

This is something she wanted to give to Hayley when she first brought it home, and for this reason, she went to a hammer smithy shop to customize it.

Considering that Hayley was not a warrior like Goss and that her strength might not be enough, Li Li also spent a few more Philosopher's Stones to get the blacksmith to switch to the lightest material.

Hayley looked at the strange iron girdle in her hand, and after a moment's pause, a gentle smile gradually appeared on her face.

"Thank you, I love it."

Hailey opened her hand and hugged Li Li, and the latter's body suddenly stiffened, and when she subconsciously wanted to step back......

"Welcome home, Li Li."

In the end, she didn't back down, but responded softly.

"Hmm."

Chapter 34: Spirit Stone

The return of Li Li and the others brought a lively atmosphere to Tianjian Village that had not been seen for a long time.

Even Goss, who was scheduled to continue his afternoon to reclaim the new land, threw his shovel aside, paused his digging, and instead hid in his cave to enjoy the pleasure of the Collector's Edition of Legend of Light.

The wise man waved his hand to the children in the village: "Okay, okay, there are guests here today, let's get you out of class early." ”

The announcement was great news for the children, who sprang out of one of the huts and scattered in all directions.

is also a scumbag who doesn't like to study, Collins couldn't help but take a second look.

He found that the children were either running to the vegetable patch to catch insects and pull weeds, or they were leveling the gravel path with shovels about the height of their size, or helping to collect firewood.

It's completely different from Collins's imaginary idea of "playing without going to class", and in a sense, it's all chore.

But judging from the performance of those children, they are full of energy when they do these things, and it is estimated that as long as they are not locked in the house to learn to read and read, they will not be tired.

Seeing this, the wise man shook his head helplessly: "These children love to run around, and they are not at peace when they are about to eat, so let them go." ”

Then he looked at Corinth and Xiren, hesitated for a moment, and then asked carefully: "I heard that both of you are from Tacheng, and you want to be literate when you come, right?" ”

Corinth and Siren looked at each other, then nodded incomprehensibly.

As a result, the wise man looked at them expectantly: "Can you two do me a favor?" Tell the children about the customs of Tacheng, and teach them to recognize some words by the way? ”

"This ......" Collinston, who didn't know how to learn, got nervous.

Xiren glanced at him: "Don't tell me, your level is not even enough to teach these children." ”

This sentence successfully made Collins jump to his feet, and the next moment, the eldest young master patted his chest and said that he could definitely tame the group of bear children completely.

Xiren was noncommittal, just silently looked up at the peak.

He had just heard from the words of the wise man that not only did the Heavenly Sword Sect have a god that he believed in, but it also seemed that this powerful god had descended into the world not long ago! The place where it descended happened to be the unfathomable black mountain in the mouth of the wise man.

Xi Ren looked over and really felt that the mountain peak was not ordinary, after all, the normal mountain peak was definitely not so completely and evenly dark.

Seeing that both Siren and Corinth had agreed, the wise man was very pleased to invite them to lunch.

The small wooden courtyard at the entrance of the village was the first to be built, and although the doors and windows were still not installed, several long dining tables and stools had already been placed inside, and a decent stove was made of stone and clay.

At this moment, Susan and Skinny Monkey were busy in the stove, preparing to make the food that Li Li had brought back from Tacheng into a lunch for the whole village.

Collins was indeed tired enough during this time, he was chasing the demonic beast outside Tacheng, and he traveled a long distance from Tacheng to Tianjian Village, and his stomach was already hungry.

So although Collins expected to eat the same mush as the gladiatorial arena at noon today, he still ran to line up with the biggest bowl.

But as soon as he turned around, he saw Li Li, who was holding a large piece of bacon jerky, lined up behind him, nibbling on it as if nothing had happened.

Collins sniffed and looked at Li Li with a blank look: "It's so fragrant!" ”

"Well, it's very fragrant." After Li Li's brief evaluation, he continued to eat the bacon jerky made by Hailey.

I heard that it was the method taught to Hailey by the senior brother, which was different from the previous direct salt and drying of the jerky, this time the jerky was first marinated and then smoked with pine branches for several days, and it tasted unique, a bit of the bacon made by Uncle Wang, who swept the floor.

"Give me half of it?" Collins consulted.

"Okay."

Li Li was really good-natured and pulled a small half of the jerky to Collins.

Before Collins could be happy, Li Li explained to the thin monkey who was cooking: "I have jerky with him, so I don't need to give it anymore." ”

The thin monkey immediately replied, "Okay! ”

When Corinth heard this, he quickly turned around, only to realize that everyone in the village had a piece of jerky in their bowls, and the food in their bowls was not as mushy as he had imagined.

Although only half of the jerky was served, the bowl of black corn and the delicious mushroom soup satisfied Collins.

"You told me before that life in the village was difficult, and I was prepared to eat only one meal a day."

Collins gulped down the last half bowl of mushroom soup and sighed, "I didn't expect the food in your village to be so good, and it's really good that I've eaten something of this kind for the first time." ”

In fact, the simple meals they were eating now were still much worse than the delicacies in the cultivation realm.

The best cooking skills of the Heavenly Sword Sect are Uncle Wang, after all, he opens a small stove every day, and from time to time he has to be responsible for preparing the hospitality meals of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and he has also practiced it for more than a hundred years.

Li Li thought about it for a while, Uncle Wang seemed to have just returned to the hut to sleep after patrolling the mountain on the day of the Demon Cultivator's sneak attack, and then he was sent into the sword array by her to take refuge.

Everyone in the sword array is in a dormant state, if the sword array can be opened, the unscathed Uncle Wang should be the easiest to be awakened and brought out.

I just don't know how he reacted when he woke up and found that he had changed the world.

Thinking of this, Li Li was in a good mood, so he said to Collins: "The next time you come back as a guest, you should be able to eat more fresh things." ”

Collins' eyes lit up and he discussed, "Then I'll come next month?" ”

Li Li listened helplessly: "You don't have to be so positive." ”

After lunch, Xiren and Collins, who had promised to teach the children in the village, walked in the direction of the school, and Yao Tan was also escorted by Sikong Ember to draw drawings.

These days, he was used to having someone on the side with broken mouths, and suddenly he was the only one left, and Li Li felt a little uncomfortable.

She stood at the entrance of the village for a while, torn between whether to dig a pit or not.

In the end, Li Li looked at the main peak, which was still dead, and decided to try how far he could go now.

More importantly, she had to go in and bring out the spirit measuring stone to test Xiren to see if he had cultivation talent.

As for digging a pit, it's still left to Goss.

……

The sunlight fell on Li Li's shoulders through the cracks in the trees, and she walked up step by step, until she realized that the stone slab under her feet was unusually flat, and then she noticed the difference.

The broken bluestone pavement has been put together by the villagers!

Although there are still cracks in the new bluestone steps, the deep and shallow sword marks on them have been pieced together completely.

Li Li had only walked two steps when he saw a few lines of words appear under his feet.

"Good news: I learned the first sword move today; Bad news: That move hit the master, I don't know if I will be expelled from the master later. ”

"Senior Brother Zhang, who lives in the sword house next door to me, can you not sharpen your sword in the middle of the night, it's really noisy."

"I hate, a few days ago, I was actually broken by Senior Brother Hong's chaotic cloak hammer hammer when I was fighting, and I disgraced Jian Xiu!"

……

A few steps further, Li Li found that someone actually wrote a note on the same stone slab.

"The first day of the eighth month: After practicing the sword today, I passed by the mountain gate, and helped Uncle Wang sweep the floor by the way, and the uncle invited me to study something called mahjong together."

"The second day of August: The rules of mahjong are unfathomable, and Uncle Wang's strength is terrifying! When I win him, I'll go to sword practice. ”

"The first day of September: I don't want to practice swords today, so let's play mahjong."

“……”

This is which teacher and nephew are so willful, and I don't know if this person was expelled from the mountain gate later.

Li Li looked all the way over, and before he knew it, he had walked in front of the mountain gate, and the faint coercion brought by the sword array became obvious.

She pulled out the broken sword at her waist, used the sword as a staff, stepped over the mountain gate, stepped on the broken bluestone inside the door, and climbed the seemingly impossible peak again!

As soon as he stepped in, Li Li sensed a familiar sword aura coming towards him, and the pressure on his body suddenly increased, as if something heavy was pressing on his body.

It was her own sword qi.

Li Li silently carried his spiritual power to resist, without pausing under his feet, and continued to walk.

If I am not mistaken, the Heavenly Sword Sect's spirit measuring stone was placed on the platform next to the hundredth step stone steps.

Every time Li Li stepped on a stone step, he could feel a heavy weight on his shoulders, and his feet seemed to be stuck in the mud, making it difficult to lift up.

What's even more terrifying is the majestic sword array under the peak, and countless sword formations are raging all around.
