“Yes. I long for that kind of life. A life that is simple, unpretentious, and carefree!” Shen Xingyue said with a longing look on her face.
Li Mu thought it was undeniable. He was clear about one thing. No matter what kind of life you were living, there would come a time when you were tired of it. Even if you were used to eating expensive fish and meat, there were some days you’d prefer eating clean. If you had been eating porridge, you’d want to eat other food instead.
Living in a big city made you long for a serene life in the countryside. Likewise, those who were living in the countryside would long for the hustle and bustle of the big city!
He thought Shen Xingyue was just exhausted. Rather than yearning for a farming life, what she needed was a good rest.
Shen Xingyue continued, “It's deep in the mountains. And the people there are innocent. They have a simple lifestyle. And not many people know about that place. Li Mu,
“Most likely. She sold all her houses and there's no place for her to settle in the city anymore. It’s very likely for her to go back to her hometown. Wait. What did you just say? A small county in the middle of nowhere?”Mrs. Hong stood up sharply and stared at Lin Kun, who hurriedly nodded his head.Without waiting for Mrs. Hong to say anything more, Lin Wan slapped the table and decided at once, “Let's go to that county right away. They're probably hiding there!”The few of them immediately prepared to set off. Mrs. Hong passed a look at Lin Wan when no one was noticing. Lin Wan immediately understood and told all of them to hurry up and get ready while she followed Mrs. Hong into the bedroom.Mrs. Hong closed the door behind her and pulled her all the way to the windows. Lin Wan frowned and asked, “What is it? Have you come up with some more bad ideas?”“You heartless girl. Why are you always so mean to me?
“Son-in-law, do you smoke?” Fourth grandfather asked cheerfully, baring his yellow teeth.“Fourth grandfather, he is not…” Shen Xingyue wanted to help Li Mu clarify his identity. From the moment she got off the bus, Li Mu had been called as son-in-law by villagers. They had been calling him that for a whole day now. She was worried that Li Mu would get upset at this.Li Mu stopped her and responded with a smile, “Of course, I do. Fourth grandfather, I have cigarettes in my car. I'll go get them!”“There’s no need for you to do so. I have some with me!” Fourth grandfather hurriedly pulled out a pack of cigarettes and passed one to Li Mu, Senior Village Chief, and Sixth grandfather respectively.“Son-in-law, where do you work? Do you work together with Yueni?” The Senior Village Chief asked. “Pretty much. We work in the same industry. And the nature of our work is pretty akin!”“Akin?” Fourth grandfa
The Senior Village Chief took the bowl of his pipe and knocked vigorously at the table. Angrily, he said, “No way. I feel so sorry for the kid. Ninth Brother, you p*ssies! Your parents and your ancestors are looking at you in the afterworld right now. Don't ever let them look down on you!”His words helped Ninth grandfather come to his realization. Suddenly, Ninth grandfather lifted his head and said in a loud voice, “You’re right to say that. I’m a coward. Don't worry about it. We honor our elders. Now that I know it's my fault, I'll do what you advised me to do!” After the discussion, four of them began to act at once. The first thing to do was to perform the black magic of transferring one's lifespan to another. It required the donor to give up their lifespan willingly. Otherwise, the recipient would not get the extra lifespan and be destroyed by the black magic, which meant Shen Xingyue would die instantly. Sixth gran
“I don't need your inheritance. Keep it for your clan!” Li Mu rejected her offer instantly.Shen Xingyue looked at him affectionately, “Honey, my heartfelt desire is to see you happy. I don't want you to worry about your finance. Please take up the offer!”Holding her hand, Li Mu continued walking forward while enjoying the field scenery. He said to her, “You've shown me your love by marrying me. I cherish our relationship and do not want it to have anything to do with money.”While talking to her, he pointed at the fields and said with a smile, “I know that you're worried that I will lead a difficult life in the future. You have left me an inheritance, though. I'll continue your business after I'm safe from danger. The goods in these mountains are my endless riches.”Shen Xingyue smiled and hugged his arms with her hands.“Honey, what if I lend you my money as the capital for you to run your business? Then, you help m
The brothers didn’t dare to say a word as the elderly lady scolded them in the house. Shen Xingyue tried to help the grandfathers. Otherwise, her Third Grandaunt would have turned her Second grandfather's house upside down. After she finished scolding them, Second grandfather said carefully, “Third sister, I sent you a letter when you were in the mountain. What do you think about the matter that I brought up to you? Is it doable?”“We got to do it! I'll kill the person if anyone dares to stop me from doing it!” Third Grandaunt said without hesitation. Subsequently, she hugged Shen Xingyue and said chokingly, “My darling. Poor thing. Don't worry. Mum is here for you. You won't die!” “Mum! Has she mixed up her identity?” Shen Xingyue thought.There was a story about it. When Shen Xingyue was born, Third Grandaunt liked her very much to the point of wanting to be her mother. She even fought with her eldes
Mrs. Hong grabbed hold of He Xiaoyu and whispered to her, “Don't simply walk around. This is a dangerous place. We're the guests and not the owner. Do not go against the owner's rules.”“What do you mean with we being the guest? This is not a forbidden place anyway. I can walk wherever I want. Are you trying to fool me?”Mrs. Hong shook her head a little and explained in a low voice, “You can do whatever you want here if you're just an ordinary person. Nobody would bring harm to ordinary people. However, we're different because we have killing intent that is against the evil energy. The owner might misunderstand it. So we got to be careful and do not stir up any misunderstanding!”“Let go of me then. I'm just an ordinary person that doesn't have to follow their rules. Go and wait for me in the car. I'll gather the information for you guys.”“It's too late. We're in the same boat already. To the owner, you belong to one of us
“Li Mu can see them too?” He Xiaoyu asked.“He should be able to very soon. He's my husband and will take over our family business afterward. He will get to see them often.”“What exactly kind of business is your family doing?”“I can't tell you that. And you shouldn't care about it too. Ignorance is bliss!”“Alright. I won't ask anymore!”Both of them went silent after that. Lin Wan put her pillow against the bedframe and got up to the bed, lying on the pillow. She closed her eyes and contemplated something quietly. He Xiaoyu kept staring at her and wanted to talk to her. Lin Wan furrowed her brows and said calmly, “Let it out if there is something you want to say. If not, go back to your room now. I want to rest!”“Alright. I want to ask you whether the bet we made is still valid.”“What will you do if I say it's no more valid?”Lin Wan did not open her eyes
After saying that, He Xiaoyu stared at Lin Wan and tried to look as relaxed as possible as if no one had been on the bed. Lin Wan chuckled and took up her phone to look at it. He Xiaoyu looked very relaxed still while staring at her as if nothing had been there.Ten seconds were fleetingly short. To He Xiaoyu, it was not a problem at all. When she thought she could pass the test, suddenly Lin Wan’s face appeared in front of her with her eyes staring straight at her. He Xiaoyu screamed and almost flipped because of the shock. Lin Wan quickly got hold of the chair and said, “Do you still want to keep it?”“Since when did you come over here? Are you a human or a ghost?”“I'll beat you up if you talk nonsense again. Of course, I'm a human. I was here for quite a while already. But I have used a deceptive trick to make you think that I was still on the bed!”He Xiaoyu held her chest and w
The fifth princess glanced towards He Xiaoyu's hand.Then he said, "That's right, it's it, I only have one piece of Ruyi on me, so I'm sure it can't be wrong."Master Kei also came over to recognize it, and after pondering it for a while, he said aloud, "Good, good, fellow monks, the old monk has thought of a way."Li Mu touched his head and asked in a humorless manner, "What idea did Master think of?""Monk Li, the old monk can now conclude that the function of these pillars is to instantly move, not to devour, which means that we will not be in danger if we touch them.""And then what, what's your idea?""The old monk's idea is a bit foolish, I think that we might as well touch these stone pillars and let them keep shifting us until they send us out.""Blind cat on a dead mouse?""Words are not enough, that's exactly what the old monk's idea was.""What kind of bullshit idea is that, you-"Li Mu was still about to say mor
It was dark outside, but there was light inside.It was only after careful identification that the crowd realized that those stone pillars would emit a faint ghostly light.Strange, why can't I find this feature out there.It wasn't a big deal though, and no one cared as they continued on in.Passing through a few more stone pillars, Li Mu subconsciously looked backward and was shocked, he couldn't help but call out, "Holy shit, where's the road we came from, we're walking in a straight line, how come we can't see the road anymore."The crowd hurriedly looked back, not so much, behind a large stone pillar blocking the front, where there is still the way to come.Li Mu pointed at the pillar and asked the others, "How did this pillar come to be here, and who saw how it came to be here?"All shook their heads.Li Mu continued to ask, "Master Kei, Princess Five, do you sense any changes in the formation?"The Fifth Princess was at a
Chi Feng retreated to the side and completely calmed down, poised and courteous, what a handsome beautiful boy.Li Mu was testing the width of the stone crevice, he stretched out his hand and was barely able to reach in, but his arm was unable to enter.Shen Xingyue also compared her measurements and shook her head towards Li Mu.The Fifth Princess laughed from the side, "You don't need to try, the gap is very narrow, with your stature you definitely won't make it."Chi Feng interjected, "This crevice is very strange, not to mention people, even ghosts can't get in."Reimu asked, "What do you mean?"Chi Feng replied, "As long as it's a living thing it can't get through, even if your body is like a piece of paper, you can't cross this gap.""So you've tried, have you managed to get through the gap?"Chi Feng shook his head and said, ''I've tried many ways to get through.I've been trying here for a long time, and there's been no g
Li Mu didn't completely agree with the old monk's words.He said directly, "There is some truth in the Master's judgment, it is very much like a war has taken place here.One thing that is not clearly explained though is that since it is a war then there are winners and losers, the loser quits and the winner stays.And what sense does it make that I see only wreckage and dilapidation, not the scent of human habitation?"Master Kei replied, "That war has destroyed this secret realm, and I'm afraid that the victors don't want it, so it's reasonable for the public to not be able to see the people."The crowd nodded their heads, thinking that the old monk was right, and that should be the reason.The Fifth Princess said to everyone, "Let's go, that place is very hidden, you need to go through secret passages to reach there, hopefully no one has noticed."The group hurried up the road and found a secret passage in a valley, through which they cam
Lin Wan and the girls had a very simple idea, with an infinite lifespan and a bright situation, why would they risk their lives to go to such a vicious place.Success, at best, will add to their careers, failure, will encounter life-threatening situations, how to look at it is not worth the loss, not worth doing.It was only because of Li Mu's great interest and always unwilling to settle down for a long time that they were forced to choose to go exploring.The purpose of the trip was entirely to keep him company, and there was no goal at all.They couldn't wait for Little Brother Li to give up on his original intention, and it would be best to return to the Su Clan's secret realm, that would be the best choice.The Fifth Princess shook her head helplessly and decided to hurry up and confess the truth, don't lose patience even with Li Mu in a while, and this heart will be completely dispersed."I'll start with the first secret place."A yawn
Before leaving the Su family, Gan Lu stole a visit to Li Mu and sincerely apologized.While congratulating her for finally being free, Li Mu repeatedly admonished her to be kind to others and not to do anything wrong, and Gan Lu repeatedly thanked her before leaving.At this point, the Su family's matter was considered to be satisfactorily resolved.Not long after, Su Yun two families big wedding, Yun Wanling married the younger uncle.Another period of time passed, and the Su family's second youngest grandmother reported that she was pregnant, carrying a pair of twins at once.October pregnancy, gave birth to a pair of big fat boys, the old lady can not close her mouth happily, Su family members are also raised eyebrows, each rejoicing.The Su family is even decorated with lanterns and large banquets, celebrating the fact that the Su family has a queen and does not have to worry about the problem of no one to follow in her footsteps.Li Mu
The Su family's old lady froze and didn't react for a long time.Reimu didn't say anything else, just looked at him quietly.The old lady pondered for half a day before she reacted to the flavor, her brow furrowed in embarrassment.She seemed a little uncomfortable, and a little moved.It was obvious that she was conflicted and didn't know how to make a decision.Lin Wan lost no time in saying, ''Elderly man, you have no one to turn to now, and your righteous son is your only hope.You should not be concerned about his status; since he has worshipped you, you are his mother, and he is your son Su Xi Mao."The old lady quickly said, ''Fairy is mistaken, I trust my son and know that he is a good boy and will definitely honor me.It's my eldest daughter-in-law I'm worried about, I don't know if she'll be happy about it, it's hard to ask for something like that, it's hard!"Li Mu laughed out loud and said to the old lady, "To tell yo
One day a few months later, the Su family's old lady invited Li Mu and the others over.The old lady's complexion was very bad, with no blood at all on her face, and when she saw the crowd, she immediately held back her left and right, and reluctantly smiled at them and said, "Here you are, all sit down!"Li Mu detected the words and knew that there was a situation, and deliberately asked, "Old lady, is there a result from the investigation?"The old woman nodded, a look of both pain and anger on her face.Li Mu sighed and said in a deep voice, "It seems that my analysis wasn't wrong, there really is something wrong with that merit law!"The old lady gritted her teeth and said, "Not only is there a problem, as long as you practice that gongfu, not only will you lose your personnel ability, but you will surely lose your life in the long run.Moreover, the death was as if he was poisoned, my eldest son was not killed by poison, it was caused by prac
Seeing them all look sad, the Fifth Princess laughed, ''Sister Wan is right, with just a few of us, we definitely can't bring too many world stones with us.But it's not like there's no way to fix this thing."Little Brother Li's eyes lit up and he quickly asked, "Knowing that there is a good way, that's great, quickly, what should I do?""It's simple, we can start by seizing a secret realm and use it as our warehouse, storing all the world stones we find there.When you come back the next time, you can bring your chiropteran wolf with you and have it swallow all the worldstones, so that it won't be brought out."Li Mu vigorously slapped his thigh and shouted loudly, Lin Wan and the others also felt that this was a good idea indeed.Only Shen Xingyue frowned and asked, "Fifth Princess, how do you know that he has a chi wolf?"Lin Wan and the others were immediately alerted, yes, you even knew that we have chi wolves, how much do you really k
