The projector displayed Feng Qu Weng's image, Li Banfeng examined it carefully but could not find any flaws.

The record player asked, "My dear husband, why did you let this old man out again?"

"He also had an accomplice who was skilled in disguise. When she impersonated Local Earth God, I couldn't tell the difference between the real and the fake at all."

The record player looked at the projector. "Did you record it?"

The projector said, "I only recorded a little bit. The woman tried to seduce Seventh Director, but she failed. I found it boring, so I didn't record the rest."

Li Banfeng said, "It doesn't matter if it's short, as long as the image can be produced."

The projector was stumped. "I'm afraid we really can't produce an image."

"Why can't you do it?"

The projector played the image of the imposter Meng Yuchun, but it was only for a short time, just over twenty seconds. But that's not the main point.

The key point is that the fake Meng Yuchun is always facing Li Banfeng. The projector can only produce a two-dimensional image and cannot produce a three-dimensional human figure. He doesn't know what it looks like from other angles.

Li Banfeng said to his Wife, "This is the person. She looks exactly like Meng Yuchun, the Local Earth God. She must be a high-ranking cultivator."

The Wife had the projector play the film several times and said to Li Banfeng, "This seems to be an Actor Cultivator."

What is "Actor Cultivator"?

"If he really is an Actor Cultivator, this will be interesting," the Wife asked the projector. "How long can you hold out against a six-story theater?"

The projector said, "If it's far away, it can last for two or three minutes; if it's close, it might only last for a dozen seconds."

Li Banfeng arrived at Meng Yuchun's Land Block, where several hunters were discussing land clearing with Meng Yuchun.

Upon seeing Li Banfeng, Meng Yuchun greeted him warmly, "Li Qi, would you like to acquire another piece of land? You can choose the size!"

Li Banfeng smiled and said dismissively, "Some other time."

Open up land?

Li Banfeng was in no mood for that.

He was even planning to take his men and leave this area.

Seeing that Li Qi was about to leave, Meng Yuchun stepped forward to stop him and said, "I'll take you somewhere to say something."

Li Banfeng was taken aback. "Where are you taking me?"

"I'll take you to a good place. Anyway, I won't hurt you." Meng Yuchun stepped forward and grabbed Li Banfeng's arm, Li Banfeng quickly dodged to the side.

Meng Yuchun was taken aback; she didn't understand why Li Banfeng was so wary.

Li Banfeng suddenly asked, "How large Land Block did I develop in your territory?"

Meng Yuchun asked in surprise, "A radius of three li? Have you forgotten?"

"What offerings did I use?"

"Half a chicken, tastes pretty good."

This is the real Meng Yuchun. Many people know about the Sanli Land Block, but no one knows about the half-chicken incident.

"Where are you taking me?"

"Places that others don't know about."

Meng Yuchun led Li Banfeng into a cave. The cave was narrow but very high; looking up, it must have been over a hundred meters high.

After wandering through the cave for a long time, Meng Yuchun's body was covered in layers of green flames. Her upper body was still human, but her lower body had turned into will-o'-the-wisps. She said to Li Banfeng, "Don't be afraid, I'll take you up."

The spirits of the dead are nothing to be afraid of; all the Local Earth God are spirits of the dead, a fact that Li Banfeng is aware of.

Meng Yuchun hugged Li Banfeng, flew to the top of the rock wall, stopped at a height of seventy or eighty meters above the ground, and entered a cave in the rock wall.

Li Banfeng asked, "Where is this place?"

"This is my home," Meng Yuchun put Li Banfeng down. "Speak softly and don't provoke my Home Spirit."

Li Banfeng's heart tightened. "Didn't your Home Spirit get devoured alive by Inner State?"

"When we arrived at the new place, I found another Home Spirit, but she has a bad temper, and I'm afraid she might hurt you."

Li Banfeng stood at the cave entrance and stopped going in.

He was unwilling to enter the House Cultivator unless absolutely necessary.

"Whatever it is, just say it here."

Meng Yuchun said, "I think I'm being watched, and that person seems to be one of your men."

My subordinates?

Li Banfeng laughed and said, "You're good-looking, so it's not surprising that they stare at you every day."

"We're not talking about the same thing. Last night, I killed a Wandering Monster near the house, Home Spirit told me it was a scribe."

She said it was an extremely rare Wandering Monster, and its appearance in my territory meant it was sent by someone, possibly to harm me.

Just as Li Banfeng had predicted, the rare Wandering Monster that appeared one after another were targeting Meng Yuchun.

"Give me what that clerk looks like, I'll take a look at him first."

"Never mind that clerk for now, I need to find out who's trying to frame me!"

Li Banfeng is also investigating this matter. "That depends on who you've offended recently."

"I haven't seen anyone lately, except you guys."

"You doubt me?" Li Banfeng lowered the brim of his hat, preparing to Kai Shan immediately.

Meng Yuchun shook her head and said, "I trust you, otherwise I wouldn't have brought you to the house."

I've been Local Earth God for so long, and I haven't even met a single person. I thought I'd never amount to anything in this lifetime. But God took pity on me and let me meet you.

I genuinely want to be your friend, but if some of your men try to harm me, and I take drastic measures against them, don't come back to me then.

Isn't this a joke?

My men are all poor hunters; none of them can harm you.

Li Banfeng laughed and said, "This definitely wasn't done by my men. I can help you investigate, but not for free. We can discuss the price."

"If you agree, we'll take action immediately. If you don't agree, I'll take my men home right now. I don't want to fall out with you, and I don't want to be implicated by you."

Meng Yuchun nodded and said, "Okay, as long as it's a price I can afford, we can discuss it."

Li Banfeng said, "Give me the clerk's corpse first, then set some traps, and then we'll discuss the price."

As she spoke, the Thread-Pulling Earring trembled. "Master, there are footsteps."

Li Banfeng looked at Meng Yuchun: "Does anyone else know where you live?"

"I also have three close female friends who occasionally come over for a drink. They never come into my house. Apart from them and you, no one else knows where I live. You stay here and don't move."

Meng Yuchun flew down the stone wall alone. After waiting for a while, three women came over carrying wine jars and various dishes.

A woman dressed in red, with a slender waist, bowed to Meng Yuchun and said with a smile, "This is newly brewed Hundred Flowers Wine, specially brought for you to try, sister."

The woman's name was Red Butterfly.

Behind her was a woman dressed in yellow, whose appearance and figure resembled Red Butterfly's; her name was Yellow Butterfly.

Standing at the very back was a plump girl with a round face and a full figure, wearing a green woolen cloak. Her name was Xiao Die.

It seems that Xiao Die hasn't transformed into a butterfly yet.

Meng Yuchun said to the three women, "My dear sisters, I have something to do today. Let's get together another day."

The three women were somewhat disappointed. Meng Yuchun chatted with them for a few minutes, saw them off, and returned to the rock face.

Watching their retreating figures, Li Banfeng asked in a low voice, "Are the three of them always together?"

Meng Yuchun nodded. "They're practically inseparable."

Inseparable?

That's unlikely.

Everyone says butterflies love flowers, but who has ever heard of caterpillars loving flowers?

Li Banfeng asked, "Have you ever heard of using Actor Cultivator?"

"What woman are you talking about?" Meng Yuchun asked, completely bewildered.

Consistent with the description of the giant toad, Meng Yuchun was a pure House Cultivator who hadn't been to the new land much before the Tenth Layer, and his understanding of the Wandering Monster was not much better than Li Banfeng's.

After lunch, Li Banfeng carried a man into Portable Abode.

The man was wearing a long robe, the embroidery of which was already blurred. It looked like an official's robe, but it was unclear which dynasty it belonged to.

He held a writing brush in his hand, the white tip stained with a few ink marks. His Wife, seeing this, exclaimed with delight, "This is a writing brush! What a fine piece! My husband, you cherish it the most..."

The cheerful drumming abruptly stopped, and the singing was filled with sorrow. "Hey, my husband, why did you bring back a corpse? Don't you cherish your Little Slave anymore?"

Hong Ying laughed loudly, "If you can't eat it, I will! You'll be so envious, you Wicked Woman!"

A powerful aura swept out, Hong Ying rushed forward. She then began to feast.

After finishing her meal, Hong Ying returned to the mirror and sat silently. The changes in her body became more and more obvious, and her originally thin body showed a bit of plumpness.

The record player murmured, "That bitch is almost human. How come she's the only one with such good luck? I wonder if it's really just luck..."

Other magical treasures rushed forward to share the spoils, Li Banfeng comforted his Wife, saying, "After we finish this business, I'll catch some more live ones for Wife."

The Wife shook the trumpet, and suddenly spewed out steam, forcing back all the magical weapons.

"Eat most of it, leave the rest for Red Lotus."

Most of the scribes are still left; will they be left to Red Lotus?

My Wife took good care of Red Lotus today.

Li Banfeng moved the Red Lotus over; its petals bloomed, and a Lotus Seed inside the Lotus Heart was already ripe.

Li Banfeng plucked the Lotus Seed, which burst open instantly, revealing a pair of Mandarin Duck Halberds in his palm.

No wonder the Wife takes such good care of me; Red Lotus has come with sincerity today.

But this seems to be no different from the previous Mandarin Duck Halberds.

Li Banfeng squatted down next to Red Lotus and said, "Ah Lian, are you trying to trick me again?"

Sizzle~

"Hey, my lord, you've wronged this wretch! These Mandarin Duck Halberds smell sweet. Smell them carefully, my lord."

Li Banfeng used his Hundred Flavors Exquisite skills to sniff for a moment and indeed found a faint sweetness.

"Let me smell it too!" Hong Ying sniffed for a long time. Despite being deaf and blind for many years, her nose was particularly sensitive, but she couldn't smell any sweetness.

Li Banfeng sniffed. It seemed that Budweiser's Linglong skill wasn't just about having a keen sense of smell; it also had other functions.

"My Wife, how do I use this magic weapon?"

"This thing lacks spiritual power and cannot be considered a magic weapon; at most, it's Spiritual Object. It's a pair of Mandarin Duck Halberds, one male and one female. The one in the husband's left hand is the male, and the one in his right hand is the female."

"If a male strikes a woman, he will become attracted to her. He will sense if a woman is within a mile of him; the same applies if a female strikes a man."

Li Banfeng nodded and said, "It's a useful item, let's call it the Male Female Halberds!"

"Hey, my husband, wouldn't it be better to call them the Yin Yang Halberds?"

"My Wife has such a fine literary talent!" Li Banfeng put away the Yin Yang Halberds, took the projector, and left Portable Abode.

At ten o'clock at night, Xiao Die, having eaten her fill of leaves, climbed down from the tree and strolled lazily through the deep forest.

Li Banfeng and Meng Yuchun followed not far away, and Xiao Die remained unaware because of the fact that House Cultivator are easily overlooked.

After walking for more than an hour, Xiao Die seemed to be hungry again and climbed up another tree to nibble on leaves.

Li Banfeng, hiding at the foot of the earthen slope, said to Meng Yuchun, "Didn't you say you'd be inseparable? Why haven't I seen the other two women?"

Meng Yuchun said, "Xiao Die has different habits from them and can't be together all the time. Yellow Butterfly and Red Butterfly both eat nectar, so they are rarely separated."

Li Banfeng's judgment was correct; Xiao Die had not yet transformed into a butterfly.

After the battle between Shui Yongquan and Qiu Luoye, Li Banfeng learned a crucial detail: the dwelling of the Local Earth God was the lifeline of the local god, and the contract was hidden inside. If it were dug up, it would pose a serious threat to the Local Earth God. Therefore, both Shui Yongquan and Qiu Luoye were on high alert regarding the defense of their dwellings.

What exactly the threat is is still unknown, but Li Banfeng knows that the best way to deal with the Local Earth God is to target the house.

Feng Qu Weng, Actor Cultivator, Daobili, Emotion Wound Slug... Rare and Wandering Monster came to Meng Yuchun's territory one after another. They certainly didn't come to fight Meng Yuchun. Daobili proved with his life that they could not possibly defeat the Local Earth God.

Their purpose was to investigate Meng Yuchun's residence.

The Emotion Wound Slug parasitizes Cao Zhida relentlessly pursues Meng Yuchun, and there is a certain probability that he will find Meng Yuchun's residence.

But he failed and died at the hands of Li Banfeng.

The clerk successfully located Meng Yuchun's residence, but failed to escape and died at Meng Yuchun's hands.

By Feng Qu Weng the wife in Actor Cultivator fight, and the old man in charge of the deception, the chances of success are the greatest.

Now that Feng Qu Weng is dead, Actor Cultivator probably doesn't know Feng Qu Weng's dead yet, and he likely won't stop.

Besides Li Banfeng, only three other people knew Meng Yuchun's address: Red Butterfly, Yellow Butterfly, and Xiao Die.

Because Xiao Die didn't transform into a butterfly, her habits differed from the other two women. She spent more time alone and was the most likely to be impostered Actor Cultivator.

Li Banfeng set his sights on her.

Meng Yuchun whispered, "They might not be my sisters. That woman who plays the concubine could be one of your subordinates."

Li Banfeng shook his head and said, "If it were really Actor Cultivator, it definitely wouldn't be one of my men. All my men are men."

"Can't she dress up as a man?"

"Cannot."

Li Banfeng took out a projector and played the image of Feng Qu Weng.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, Xiao Die climbed down from the tree and slowly walked to "Feng Qu Weng" and said in a low voice, "We succeeded."

PS: What should we do next?

Are they going to use the Actor Cultivator and then torture them severely?
