I am a professional at killing time travelers

Chapter 16: The Fallen Immortal

16

Zheng Qiu has lived in the village since he was a child, so he naturally knows what kind of people there are and doesn't want to argue with irrelevant people.

"Mr. Li, I won't say anything else. One hundred taels per mu of land is already a not-so-good price. One hundred taels is one tael of silver. Three taels for more than ten mu of land? That's a bit unreasonable!"

Before Li Chengping could say anything, Li Erhu immediately took over and continued, "We are doing this for you! What if you get sick and have to go back to the village to live? You don't need the land, we are keeping it for you first. What will you have left if your mother remarries? Don't be ungrateful!"

Li Sihu covered Li Erhu's mouth instantly, but the words had already been said. The air around them was actually a little hot, which was in sharp contrast with Zheng Qiu's expression.

Li Sihu hurriedly said, "Uncle Master! We have a good relationship, so please let it go for my sake! My family doesn't want the land anymore! Let's just leave it at that!"

Zheng Qiu calmed down his mind. At this time, he had already thought about killing someone: "Sihu! If the sect is insulted, what will you and I do?"

Li Sihu said without thinking: "Fight with your life!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Sihu realized something was wrong. A gust of white wind blew by, and Li Erhu fell to the ground and wailed: "Ah! Sihu, kill him! Kill him!"

But Li Sihu, who was always obedient, did not move. He hesitated, thinking that revenge would never end. If Zheng Qiu was forced into a corner, no one in the Li family would survive: "Shut up! It's good enough that you're alive!"

Zheng Qiu shook his head: "Mr. Li doesn't bully people like this! If you don't give me an explanation today, it's hard to say what will happen! I am also a cultivator, but I am still a mortal after all. My mother cried all day long. I came back, but Erhu is still so arrogant. I guess he has you as his supporter!"

Li Chengping's eyes were grim, but the situation was stronger than the person. Zheng Qiu's family only had two people, while his own family had seven or eight people, not counting the girls who married out. He couldn't afford to take the risk: "Tell me, what should we do?"

Zheng Qiu thought for a moment and said, "I'm not unreasonable. This land has 13 acres in total. I'll leave one acre for my mother to grow some vegetables, and rent out the rest! How much do you think you'll pay per year?"

"The grain tax will be 10% of the land tax. I can only give you half of the land income." Li Chengping was cursing in his heart. Who in the village would dislike having too much land? But half of the land also requires hard work. This world is dominated by immortals, but there are many natural and man-made disasters. Therefore, the income from such land is more than the annual rent. But he was not willing to give half of the land to others for nothing after his hard work. The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. But he forgot that it was not his in the first place.

Zheng Qiu thought about it carefully. In fact, half of it was not a small amount. He left some gold for his mother. These were not difficult. It was just that the purpose of showing strength this time had been achieved, so he didn't want to get entangled: "Okay! And Mr. Li, it's not good to bully people like this! If you really push me into a corner, it will not look good on anyone. I grew up here and have some feelings for this place, so I still feel very sad to kill everyone here."

Li Chengping suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and some of the people around him looked disdainful, while others had dark complexions. Those who had bullied his family began to worry in their hearts, fearing that Zheng Qiu would come after them.

Zheng Qiu flew into the air and returned to his home. As for the old Li family’s house, he left it to Li Sihu himself!

Zheng Qiu took out a forging furnace, then took out dozens of kilograms of ordinary iron and began to forge farm tools. These farm tools were more useful than money in the village. Salt and iron were both controlled by the state, so using these farm tools to do favors was also a good choice.

As the sky gradually darkened, Zheng Qiu put down the hammer in his hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Suddenly, a strong white light slowly fell from the sky and the sky became daytime again.

An unknown pressure came over my heart, and that breath was ancient and desolate.

Suddenly, the white light went out and a voice sounded slowly: "Which world is this? Haha~ I didn't expect that I would be born as an immortal! Hahahaha~ This world is mine! Hahahaha!"

The wild laughter resounded throughout the universe, and an unknown energy instantly turned the area tens of thousands meters around the figure into an abyss.

"Where should we go? Hmm? That imperial city seems huge!"

Then it disappeared between heaven and earth.

Li Sihu suddenly landed beside Zheng Qiu and asked, "What is that?"

Zheng Qiu's face was extremely solemn: "I heard that his words seemed to contain a trace of Taoism. He must be an almighty being. This pressure is even thousands of times greater than that of my senior brother!"

"More powerful than the peak master?" Li Sihu hesitated but finally said, "Master Hu said that person has immortal energy! He might be a banished immortal."

"Immortal? That's good. At least immortals are not evil people." When Zheng Qiu heard the word "immortal", he let go of the bad feeling in his heart.

At this moment, the Golden Eyed Scarlet Tiger suddenly jumped to Zheng Qiu's side: "The Immortal may be more terrifying than the Devil!"

Zheng Qiu frowned: "How could that be? Isn't he a fairy?"

Golden Eyed Scarlet Tiger hesitated for a moment, then continued, "You are still young and don't know! The literature on the world of immortal cultivation is all beautified. In fact, the exiled immortals coming down to earth is the most terrifying thing in the world. Most immortals have no feelings for the world we live in, and they slaughter all living things just because they like. Some even move mountains and fill the sea to destroy the mortal world! The last time an exiled immortal came down to earth, it was your master who fought him back! The price was that thousands of sects were killed and their inheritance was cut off, hundreds of millions of cultivators died, and countless mortals were annihilated in that era."

Zheng Qiu's brows, which had just relaxed, furrowed again: "Then...what should we do?"

The expression on the face of the Golden Eyed Scarlet Tiger became even more serious: "Don't mind your own business! Maybe you can live longer this way."

Zheng Qiu originally wanted to leave in a few days, but he didn't expect that the immortal had come to the world, so he had to stay in the village for two more days in case anything unexpected happened to the village.

"Sihu! It looks like we can't leave. I'm afraid there will be unrest in the next few days. It's time for you and me to protect the village!"

Li Sihu showed an honest smile on his face: "I came to you just to talk about this! I don't want to leave yet! This is my home, my village! I have to protect it!"

Zheng Qiu asked Li Sihu to go back, and then swung the hammer again. This time it was not for those ordinary objects. This time he wanted to refine two more magic weapons for Li Sihu. Since the immortal had such a peculiar personality, it would be good to have more help.

Qiu Yue looked at her son sweating profusely in the yard with a hint of satisfaction on her face. Although mother and son didn't talk much, she was still very pleased to know that her son had grown up and could even stand on his own feet.
