Who Will Guard Medicine King Gully?
Li Banfeng carried Yao Lao into Portable Abode.
Doing so was dangerous, as it could expose his Portable Abode, but Li Banfeng did not hesitate.
He moved Red Lotus next to Yao Lao, and the record player exclaimed in surprise, "Husband, what are you doing?"
Red Lotus does not eat raw food, but since Yao Lao had already lost his life force, the Red Lotus still slightly opened its petals.
Li Banfeng glared at her, and Red Lotus closed her petals again.
After leaving Portable Abode, Li Banfeng carried medicinal herbs from Yao Lao.
He doesn't understand the properties of medicines, nor does he understand pharmacology; he doesn't even recognize most medicinal herbs.
He would move any medicinal herbs he saw, and he would also move any medicine he saw, whether it was pills or ointments, Li Banfeng moved Portable Abode.
Red Lotus understood what Li Banfeng meant and said a few words to the record player.
Li Banfeng couldn't hear, so the record player relayed, "Husband, even Red Lotus can't wake him up; at most, she can stabilize his soul."
"That's fine too."
The Red Lotus unfolded its petals and selected more than a dozen types of medicines and herbs, storing them in its Lotus Heart.
Before long, the petals opened, and Li Banfeng peeled off a Lotus Seed. The Lotus Seed burst open and turned into a nearly transparent pill.
Li Banfeng handed the pill to his Wife, Wife checked it and, finding it to be correct, put it into Yao Lao's mouth.
Yao Lao showed no reaction. The record player sighed softly and said, "His soul has been stabilized. When he will wake up depends on his fate."
Li Banfeng carried Yao Lao back to the courtyard and put Yao Lao on the bed.
He neatly organized the things in the yard and inside the house.
The corpse of the Mourning Star couldn't be wasted, Li Banfeng dragged it into his Portable Abode, thinking that he might leave some of its spirit for his Wife to consume. However, after examining it, his Wife said, "General Yao was ruthless; this fellow's soul has been reduced to ashes, leaving nothing behind."
It's good that there's nothing left; my Wife even thinks it's bad luck to eat this stuff.
Other magical treasures were also unwilling to be consumed, and in the end, they all benefited Red Lotus.
Yao Lao's family also had many magical treasures. The Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade and the Four- Back Flags were both high-level items. He greeted them one by one with the Wine Gourd, but these magical treasures did not respond.
These magical artifacts remained by Yao Lao's side; they did not want to follow Li Banfeng.
Li Banfeng hadn't originally planned to take them with him, as Yao Lao also needed someone to take care of him.
The collapsed wall needs to be repaired quickly. Yao Lao can't be exposed to the sun and rain, so he can do this work with Qiu Zhiheng.
The problem is, besides these magical treasures, who else can protect Yao Lao?
What should we do if other Local Earth God come to seize our territory and dig up Yao Lao's contract?
At daybreak, Qiu Zhiheng went up the mountain and saw Li Banfeng picking up bricks and stones, so he quickly came up to ask about the situation.
Li Banfeng said, "The Mourning Star is dead, and the Mourning Gate Formation is broken."
Qiu Zhiheng was overjoyed, but when he saw Yao Lao's condition, the joy on his face froze.
"What's wrong, Yao Lao?"
"His injuries were too severe; he fell asleep."
"He..."
Li Banfeng knew what Qiu Zhiheng was going to ask, "Whether he can wake up or not, Yao Lao himself doesn't know."
Qiu Zhiheng sat next to Yao Lao, his face full of bewilderment. He didn't know how to deal with this situation either.
Li Banfeng asked, "Do you know any other local Local Earth God? If you trust them, you can ask them to help take care of Medicine King Gully."
Qiu Zhiheng pondered for a long time, then shook his head and said, "I know some Local Earth God, but I can't trust any of them."
It was late autumn, and the morning breeze was cold.
Li Banfeng sighed and said, "Let's build the wall first."
He had three people in mind who could help Yao Lao take care of the area, but he still needed to consider which one was the most suitable.
To take care of Medicine King Gully, one must find a Local Earth God deity, and not just any ordinary Local Earth God.
Meng Yuchun lacks experience and can't even manage her own territory properly, let alone Li Banfeng's. It's clearly unsuitable to ask her for help.
The most suitable person to choose from is Shui Yongquan, the Local Earth God that Li Banfeng is most familiar with. His territory is not close to here, but it is not too far either. With the Local Earth God's abilities, it shouldn't be a big problem for him to come and go here occasionally.
Although Shui Yongquan is Local Earth God Xindi, he is experienced and capable, and can support Yao Lao for several years.
Of course, this matter couldn't be left for nothing. During the time that Yao Lao Shui Yongquan in a coma, a portion of the popularity of Medicine King Gully was used to maintain Yao Lao's cultivation, and the remainder was given to Shui Yongquan as a reward.
The plan is reasonable, but the problem is that the benefits for the Proper Land Local Earth God are too great, and the temptation is too great.
What if Lao Shui has been Local Earth God for a while and refuses to leave?
Although Shui Yongquan is a man of his word, Li Banfeng dared not gamble on this matter. Even if a contract was signed, with Shui Yongquan's wisdom, he could very well find loopholes.
Option two: Find Qiu Luoye.
Compared to the Shui Yongquan, the Qiu Luoye are less capable, but they are also less cunning. As long as the contract is written clearly, the chances of the Qiu Luoye cheating are not high.
However, Qiu Luoye acts rashly and may cause trouble. It's one thing if he messes with others, but Medicine King Gully is near Green Water Bay. If Qiu Luoye provokes Green Water Beggar, things will get complicated.
The third option Feng Daiku.
Ma Wu and she had a good relationship, so asking her to look after Medicine King Gully was also an option.
This was the last resort because Li Banfeng did not trust Feng Daiku. Not only did he not trust her, but his relationship with her was also quite bad. It was because of her that Li Banfeng almost lost his life at the Iron Wire River.
Who else is there besides these three?
Bitter Granny?
Peddler?
Li Banfeng didn't know how to contact these important figures.
While he was pondering, Li Banfeng suddenly started shaking his leg.
Qiu Zhiheng was taken aback. "Brother, what's wrong?"
Li Banfeng shook his head. "It's nothing, I just walked a lot yesterday, and my legs are a little sore."
Qiu Zhiheng knew Li Banfeng was Travel Cultivator. Seeing Li Banfeng's body trembling and his face covered in cold sweat, Lu Dongliang recalled a similar situation he had experienced, "Are you about to be promoted?"
Promotion?
That's quite possible!
Travel Cultivator advance very quickly in dangerous situations. They encountered the Mourning Gate Formation in Medicine King Gully, Mourning Gate Formation is extremely dangerous. Li Banfeng traveled almost all over Medicine King Gully with the train. In addition, he had been Running East and West non-stop during this period and had been secretly taking pills. It was indeed time for him to reach the critical point of advancement.
Qiu Zhiheng helped Li Banfeng and said, "Come home with me and rest."
Li Banfeng shook his head. "Let's figure out how to build the wall first."
"Leave this to me."
"We must not let others know where Yao Lao lives."
"Don't worry, I bought a Spiritual Object for repair last month, it'll be enough for me."
Qiu Zhiheng wanted to take Li Banfeng down the mountain, but Li Banfeng said, "I have to stay here and guard Yao Lao's house. Don't worry about me. Promotion is not a big deal. I can just rest here."
Unable to persuade Li Banfeng, Qiu Zhiheng quickly went down the mountain.
The sudden promotion was too much for Li Banfeng to handle. After running around the mansion dozens of times, Li Banfeng returned to his Portable Abode.
Seeing Li Banfeng's pale face, the record player asked, "My dear husband, what's wrong?"
"I suppose you've been too tired these past few days."
"Come and rest in bed."
Li Banfeng lay on the bed, a ball of steam nestled close to his side.
Li Banfeng glanced at Hong Ying secretly, wondering how to get the seventh level of the technique out of her.
Jiang Xiang Gang, Medicine King Hall, Hall Master Luo ZhengNan sat on a recliner on the rooftop, leisurely listening to the radio.
The weather was sunny today, and Hall Master Luo was in a good mood. He inserted the antenna into his head and carefully sensed it.
The bad luck has dissipated, it really has.
Who broke the Mourning Gate Formation?
Monkey Qiu?
He doesn't have that ability.
The one pulling the cart?
That person wasn't in Medicine King Gully, and no one knew where he had gone.
It's likely that the Local Earth God personally intervened in this matter.
How did that old drunkard break the Mourning Gate Formation?
Having been Local Earth God for so many years, he must have some tricks up his sleeve.
Perhaps I can use this incident to get in touch with him.
Forget it, he's too high-ranking. Getting involved with him won't do me any good, and might even bring me a lot of trouble.
As long as Medicine King Gully peaceful, I can continue living my peaceful life.
Luo ZhengNan was listening to the radio and was about to fall asleep when Sun Xingbing, the "stick-wielding rascal," suddenly appeared on the rooftop. "Report to the Hall Master!"
"Report what?" Luo ZhengNan asked irritably.
"Han Jinwei is here."
Why is that jerk here again?
He wants to go to Yellow Earth Bridge again?
"Please!"
Han Jinwei went up to the rooftop, and as expected, he really wanted to go to Yellow Earth Bridge.
Luo ZhengNan patiently persuaded, "Hall Master Han, don't rush, wait a little longer..."
There are still some things to take care of in Medicine King Gully. I'll go with you after I'm done."
Han Jinwei nodded and left the rooftop.
Luo ZhengNan didn't give him a perfunctory answer. He really planned to go to Yellow Earth Bridge in a few days. If Han Jinwei really wanted to stay in Yellow Earth Bridge, he would let him stay.
Luo ZhengNan didn't care about the Yellow Earth Bridge area, but having Han Jinwei around made Luo ZhengNan uneasy.
But Han Jinwei didn't think that way.
He gritted his teeth and returned to the mansion, where he summoned the newly appointed Sub-Gang Leader, the Nightmare Cultivator Mo Jiansheng.
Mo Jiansheng, and he was timid and subservient in front of Han Jinwei, not even having the courage to raise his head and speak.
Han Jinwei said, "Pack your things, take the spirit of that vengeful cultivator with you, and we'll set off tonight for a trip to Outer State."
Mo Jiansheng was taken aback. "Going to Outer State? That Travel Permit won't be easy to obtain."
"Do you need to worry about Travel Permit?" Han Jinwei used to travel to Outer State on business. He had Travel Permit for those Outer State and could bring several people with him.
Mo Jiansheng was a little scared; he had never been to Outer State in his life. "Such a big matter, you should tell Hall Master Luo about it."
Han Jinwei frowned and said, "What are you going to say to him? Aren't I the Hall Master?"
"But, but I've been following Hall Master Luo for so many years..."
"If you were so loyal to him, why did you come to me in the first place! You've lived this long and haven't even become Sub-Gang Leader. If it weren't for my recommendation, you'd still be a patrol officer! Aren't you ashamed?"
Mo Jiansheng dared not speak.
"Hurry home and pack your things!"
Mo Jiansheng returned home and packed his luggage.
The son Mo Linping, asked, "Dad, where are you going?"
"Don't ask. Just wait for my news at home for the next two days. If you still haven't heard from me after ten days, go find our Hall Master Luo and tell him that something has happened to our Local Earth God."
"Local Earth God?" Mo Linping exclaimed in surprise.
"Stop yelling!" Mo Jiansheng glared at his son. "You can't tell anyone about this except the Hall Master."
Han Jinwei took Mo Jiansheng and secretly boarded the train overnight.
The next day, Luo ZhengNan received news that Han Jinwei had disappeared.
He summoned Sun Xingbing, and told him to hurry to the train station and find someone he knew to check on Han Jinwei's whereabouts.
Sun Xingbing quickly found the information. "Hall Master, Han Jinwei has gone to Outer State."
"Outer State?" Luo ZhengNan was taken aback. "What would he be doing in Outer State?"
Sun Xingbing was unaware of this. "I guess he was sent on a mission by the Gang Leader. The Gang Leader used to always send him to Outer State."
"No way, there wasn't a hint of trouble beforehand?" Luo ZhengNan frowned, sensing that something bad was about to happen again.
In Yuezhou, Xiao Zhengong was taking a nap in his villa when his bodyguard came to report that Han Jinwei had arrived.
Xiao Zhengong's face darkened; he didn't want to see him.
Xiao Zhengong had a deep dislike for Han Jinwei because of his poor performance in the previous Iron Gate Fort.
After waiting for a while, Xiao Zhengong felt that Han Jinwei must have come from afar for something urgent, so he put on his clothes and went to the hall.
"What do you want?"
Han Jinwei looked around, and Xiao Zhengong told the others to leave.
"Gang Leader, I've received news that something has happened to the Local Earth God of Medicine King Gully."
"The Local Earth God? Yao Lao? What happened?"
"He fought a fierce battle with the Mourning Star. The Mourning Star set up the Mourning Gate Formation in Medicine King Gully. I guess the old man can't hold on."
Xiao Zhengong was taken aback. "Is the information reliable?"
"Reliable. The Mourning Star has a ghost of a jinx in his possession. He escaped while the two were fighting. He saw it with his own eyes. This ghost was captured by my Sub-Gang Leader, Mo Jiansheng."
"Where was that Mo guy born?"
"Just wait outside the door."
"Let him in!"
Mo Jiansheng, carrying the spirit of the deceased, trembled as he approached Xiao Zhengong.
Xiao Zhengong smiled slightly and said, "Sub-Gang Leader Mo, don't be afraid, tell me the whole story."
Mo Jiansheng dared not say more, and released the spirit of the deceased, instructing him to speak directly to Xiao Zhengong.
The spirit recounted the whole story, Xiao Zhengong nodded, saying, "Who else knows about this?"
Han Jinwei said, "Sub-Gang Leader Mo only told me about it."
Xiao Zhengong looked at Mo Jiansheng: "You didn't tell Luo ZhengNan?"
Mo Jiansheng didn't know how to answer, Han Jinwei was already prepared. "Hall Master Luo has been getting too close to Qiu Zhiheng lately, and there are some things I dare not let him know."
"Qiu Zhiheng, Monkey Qiu? What's his connection with Luo ZhengNan?"
"It's hard to say." Han Jinwei looked at Xiao Zhengong meaningfully.
Xiao Zhengong nodded and said, "Well done. It's good that the news didn't leak out. You two have done a great job and should be rewarded. Have a drink with me first."
Xiao Zhengong took a bottle of champagne from the wine cabinet, and Han Jinwei smiled.
With this achievement, reinstatement is inevitable. If he wants to move to a better place in the future, the Gang Leader will definitely agree, and even the position of deputy Gang Leader won't be far away.
Xiao Zhengong shook the champagne, and with a bang, the cork flew out and pierced through Han Jinwei's head.
Han Jinwei was still standing on the ground, and Mo Jiansheng was terrified.
He wanted to run, but his legs felt weak and he couldn't take a step.
"Don't be afraid, drink up." Xiao Zhengong poured a glass of champagne and tossed it to Mo Jiansheng.
A champagne glass was embedded in Mo Jiansheng's skull.
The spirit of the deceased quickly became invisible. Xiao Zhengong took out a Copper Coin, flicked it casually, and hit the spirit. In the blink of an eye, the spirit vanished into nothingness.
