Five days later, Liao Zihui looked at the sunset outside the window, picked up the teacup, and took a silent sip.

Secretary Ling Sujun walked in, her sunken eye sockets filled with darkness.

"General Ambassador, do we still need to prepare for battle today?"

Liao Zihui thought for a while and asked, "Have the tea leaves been distributed?"

"I sent it out the day before yesterday."

"Is there any elixir mixed in it?"

"It's been mixed in, but the effect is not obvious. Do I need to increase the dose?"

Liao Zihui took another sip of tea: "Let's get off work."

Ling Sujun bowed deeply to Liao Zihui, turned around and left without daring to ask any more questions.

Liao Zihui put on his coat. Before leaving the office, he looked at the drawer and wondered whether he should listen to the headset again.

He opened the drawer, hesitated for a moment, and then closed it.

As long as you listen to the headset, you will definitely hear Li Qi's voice.

Li Qi will definitely express his intention to attack the Customs and Defense Department in some obscure way.

Then just because of his words, I couldn't sleep tonight.

No one knows Li Qi’s true thoughts, but since he doesn’t know, why bother himself?

Just pretend it didn't happen.

Vice President Xia Shumin waited at the door of the office with two tickets for Xiaoyaowu. When he saw Liao Zihui going out, Xia Shumin hurriedly greeted him.

"General Ambassador, I heard that you like Jiang Mengting's songs. There will be a special performance by Jiang Mengting at Xiaoyaowu tonight. I bought you two tickets. You and your wife just go to relax tonight."

Liao Zihui accepted the ticket and said with a smile: "Xiao Xia, you are in good spirits."

Xia Shumin smiled and said: "I used to have a lot of urgent tasks, so I'm used to it."

Liao Zihui nodded: "It's good to be young, it's really good to be young. My wife doesn't like Jiang Mengting, so why don't we go to Xiaoyaowu to listen to music tonight?"

Xia Shumin waved his hands and said, "To be honest, I don't like this either. I went to a concert once when I was young. The place was too noisy and too far from the stage. I just followed a group of people and shouted, and I couldn't even see the singer.

.”

"You can see it here! The song festival in Puzhou is different! There are not many people in a venue, and there are no microphones in this place. What you hear is the original sound, and what you see is the same.

Let’s go together. Let’s have a couple of drinks and a meal at Xiaoyaowu first. In another two hours, it’s almost time to start.”

"Mengting, the singing show is about to start. You can't lose your temper!" Manager Zhang from Xiaoyaowu was very anxious. The singing show was about to start. Jiang Mengting said that her throat felt uncomfortable and she couldn't sing.

"You are speechless when you listen to me. Why are you singing this? You can put a notice at the door and say that it will be rescheduled."

Manager Zhang said anxiously: "Auntie, the tickets were sold out a month in advance. Are you asking me to reschedule now?"

The Xiaoyaowu signboard has to be destroyed. I beg you, can I kowtow to you, and you can just go on stage and sing two songs, which can be regarded as an explanation."

Jiang Mengting refused to come on stage, so Manager Zhang quickly told Li Banfeng what had happened.

Li Banfeng had a dinner with Jiang Mengting, and personally fed Jiang Mengting a bowl of decoction to clear her lungs and moisturize her throat. Jiang Mengting recovered from her illness and could go out in the evening.

When the singing concert began, Li Banfeng took his seat under the stage and looked up to see Liao Zihui in the box on the second floor.

Li Banfeng entered the box, sat next to Liao Zihui, looked at the black circles under his eyes, and asked: "General Manager Liao, you don't look good. Have you stayed up late these past two days?"

Liao Zihui smiled and said: "Yes, I have been thinking about you these days, thinking you could go to the Customs and Defense Department to sit there.

But you haven’t come yet.”

Li Banfeng said: "Since you are thinking about me, why don't you come to Xiaoyaowu to find me?"

Liao Zihui nodded: "Last time I came to see you, you didn't look good on me."

Xia Shumin saw the way and said hello: "Is this Mr. Li?"

Li Banfeng looked at Xia Shumin and said, "What do you call this person?"

Liao Zihui said: "This is the new Ambassador Xia."

Li Banfeng said in surprise: "A new ambassador has arrived? Ambassador Liao, have you retired?"

Liao Zihui sighed: "I'm looking forward to this day."

Li Banfeng looked at Xia Shumin and said, "Are you also looking forward to this day?"

"I don't -" Xia Shumin took a breath. He wanted to say that he didn't expect it, but he felt that it was inappropriate to say so.

Liao Zihui said: "It's usually not easy to talk about this kind of thing in front of me. In this case, you guys can chat here while I go downstairs to sit and listen to music."

Li Banfeng was still a little embarrassed: "How can I ask you to change places? Mr. Xia and I will find a place to talk alone. I definitely can't let you know about this."

Xia Shumin laughed twice and said, "Mr. Li is really good at joking. Let's just concentrate on listening to the song."

Li Banfeng really wanted to chat with them more about the topic of retirement. As he was talking, he suddenly felt a palpitation in his heart. This feeling was so familiar.

Someone is clearing up wasteland!

He said goodbye, left the box, quickly returned to his room, entered the residence, and said to the old man: "Go to the station, the station on my territory."

A few minutes later, Li Banfeng borrowed all his power from Hong Ying, left his residence, arrived at his own land, and walked in the direction where there was a sense of land reclamation.

The first person who appeared in sight was Tritik.

Li Banfeng immediately gave up the idea of ​​​​replying to open up wasteland. Let him open up wasteland here, which would be the destruction of the strange monsters in the world.

But he was not the only one who came to open up wasteland. Li Banfeng counted fifteen people in total, and the one waiting for news at the altar table was Chu Huaiyuan.

Is she here to open up wasteland?

I haven't seen her these days, why did she come to Xindi?

Li Banfeng took out the judge's pen and the projector: "Ah Bi, fly me over there, Ah Ji, cover up for me and bring out the aura of the Nodding Earth God."

The projector was quickly prepared, and he used a cloud of black smoke to cover Li Banfeng's figure and face, leaving only a cluster of green flames floating in the smoke.

The next thing is to fly, Li Banfeng said to the judge: "The stop time is limited, you move faster."

"Humph!" Judge Bi breathed a long sigh of relief, stretched out, and flew to the center of the plot with Li Banfeng. The projector selected the hiding place by itself, allowing Li Banfeng to appear in front of everyone in the form of clouds.

.

Li Banfeng looked down at Chu Er and asked, "Do you want to open up wasteland?"

Chu Erzheng was puzzled as to why the Earth God had not responded for so long, and thought there was something wrong with the tribute.

Unexpectedly, the land god suddenly appeared, and the pioneers were very nervous.

Chu Er replied respectfully: "Yes, I want to develop a three-mile radius plot on your land."

"Why do you want to open up wasteland on my land?"

Do you also ask about this matter?

Chu Er replied: "I came here after being recommended by a friend."

This is the truth. Chu Er was introduced by He Yuxiu. She said this place was quiet and very suitable for Chu Er's practice.

Li Banfeng asked: "Has the candidate been selected to open up the wasteland?"

Chu Er answered truthfully: "The pioneers are all here."

Li Banfeng said: "Foreigners cannot open up wasteland here."

Cui Tikeyi, I didn’t expect that the local gods here would actually discriminate against foreigners.

Is this really the Earth God?

This power is really scary.

Tritic replied: "Dear gods, I am not a pioneer, I am a healer hired by a pioneer."

There are two other people behind Tritik, both doctors.

If Tritic does not participate in land reclamation, this matter still needs to be discussed.

Li Banfeng said to Chu Er: "You have to write down the identity of the landowner and the person who opened the land in the deed. After everything is ready, come back tomorrow to offer tribute."

After saying that, Li Banfeng disappeared.

Chu Er had some experience in land reclamation, but she didn't know much about the Earth God and didn't dare to question it casually, so she could only write a new deed.

With the help of Green Water Bow, Cuitike has reached the ninth level of cultivation. He can sense that the Earth God just now is a little unreal, but he does not have rich experience in opening up wasteland, and he does not know the Earth God in this state.

What kind of image should God be like?

Looking up into the distance, he saw the boundaries of Zhang Wanlong and Xiao Genzi.

Tritik was very interested in seeing such lush crops in such a remote new land and went to the field to take a look.

Zhang Wanlong came over with a hoe and said hello with a smile: "This foreign friend, can you understand what I am saying?"

"Yes!" Tritik nodded.

"Are you here to buy food or fruits and vegetables?"

Cuitike stared at Zhang Wanlong and looked up and down: "I want to buy some."

When it was time to drive, Li Banfeng returned to his home, waited for a few minutes, and returned to Xiaoyaowu.

He handed over the business matters to the steward, went to replenish some expenses at home, and immediately set off for Xindi.

Land reclamation requires school entrance examinations. This problem cannot be solved by stopping at the station. Li Banfeng must make the trip himself.

Just in time for the concert to end, there was a lot of traffic in front of Xiaoyaowu Gate. Li Banfeng lowered his hat and walked forward. Suddenly he saw a man standing under the street lamp, looking around with big eyes.

These eyes are also too big.

If there are spicy strips on hand, Li Banfeng would like to try them. Is the skill within five meters unfamiliar?

Isn't this a light bulb?

When did he come to Puzhou?

Li Banfeng walked forward and stared at the light bulb for a moment.

Bulb looked at the bearded man in a black suit and a black top hat in front of him, feeling nervous. Li Banfeng asked: "Are you here to see me?"

"No, it's not." Bulb turned his face to the other side.

Li Banfeng confirmed again: "I am Li Qi, are you really not here to find me?"

"No, it's not." The light bulb's voice became smaller and smaller.

He came to see Li Qi, and the task given to him by Xia Shumin was to monitor Li Qi.

This man in a black suit admitted that he is Li Qi. What does this mean for the light bulb?

This means the situation is bad.

If this person is not Li Qi, it means that Bulb's identity has been exposed, and he still knows nothing about the other party's identity.

If this person is Li Qi, it means that the light bulb is likely to die.

The light bulb was covered in oil and was ready to escape.

Li Banfeng gave some advice: "I'll find a good place for you and escape there. Ordinary people won't be able to find you."

"What?" Bulb was stunned.

Li Banfeng grabbed the light bulb and started running.

Bulb has ridden in Xiao Zhenggong's caravan. Even if Xiao Zhenggong stepped on the accelerator, he could not move so fast.

The two legs of the key bulb couldn't hold it up, so it had no time to flip over and could only slide on the ground.

The oil film on the body has not yet dissipated, and the light bulb does not know how to escape.

Li Banfeng reminded: "Save some gas and put your feet down, our road is not close.'

Bulb didn't know how long he had been walking, nor how far he had walked. When he stopped, the oil on his body was exhausted, and the soles of his shoes were worn out. His nose and tears flowed out first, and then the wind.

Thousands, it will flow out after it dries, forming layers of hard armor on the face.

Sitting on the ground, Bulb gasped for a long time, tilted his mouth, and cried.

"Oh~ah~" Bulb pointed at Li Banfeng, looked around again, patted his thighs with both hands several times, and was speechless for a long time.

Li Banfeng gave him a kettle, two boxes of cans, and a piece of bread.

"This is a new land, and there are many hunter camps nearby. If you can find a way to get out, you will be considered alive. If you can't get out, you will stay here completely. Remember?"

Bulb looked up at the bearded man, still sobbing.

Li Banfeng frowned and said, "Why are you crying? You are much stronger when you meet me than when I met you!"

Bulb didn't understand what the bearded man meant, and Li Banfeng wasn't in the mood to explain to him.

Watching the bearded man slowly go away, Bulb didn't know whether he should follow him or not.

After thinking about it, he decided not to follow. The difference in strength between the two sides was too obvious. If he took one more step with him, he might lose his life.

After running all this way, Bulb was indeed hungry.

He tore open the bread, stuffed it into his mouth in three bites, and drank it with water.

He originally wanted to take two bites of the can, but suddenly he felt greasy under his body.

Oil leak?

It shouldn't be, the little oil I have has long been exhausted.

Bulb looked down and found a piece of blood-red land moving beneath him.

Why does the land move?

Bulb looked back and gradually understood the current situation.

What is wandering is not the land, but a huge blood-red worm.

Did I just sit on this bug?

It seems that I am still in this bug——·

Looking at the size of the worm, he found it was several times larger than the silkworm he had seen in the factory.

Bulb wants to cry again.

But he still stopped his tears and prepared to run for his life.

The next morning, Li Banfeng returned to his own territory, and Chu Er laid out tributes early, waiting for the local god to respond.

Li Banfeng turned into a black cloud and carefully checked the deed. It was indeed Cui Tike and others who did not participate in the land reclamation.

Li Banfeng lit up the plot.

After the matter of land reclamation was settled, it was time to take the school entrance examination. Li Banfeng returned to the residence of Lord Bashan.

Get the Ditou Seal and look for the strange monster.

The land seal carries the cultivation level on the earth, which is the cost of hiring aberrations.

Who is the right person to hire?

Flying around on the ground to make publicity?

no!

This kind of behavior of hawking on the street is a bit vulgar.

Post a notice?

How many aberrations can understand the notice?

Not to mention, there is actually one literate among them who knows at least one word "叶".

Li Banfeng thought of the bull-headed man and expected him to understand the notice. It would be a bit difficult, but he should be able to serve as a mouthpiece.

After walking around the land, Li Banfeng found the Minotaur in a forest, playing chess with a jujube tree monster.

The chess pieces are made of stone, and each player has a chessboard.

The bull-headed man threw a stone at the jujube tree monster: "I'm going to shoot you!"

Zaoshu blocked it with a chessboard and threw a stone back: "I'll get out of the car!"

The bull-headed man bumped into the jujube tree: "I will fight!"

Zaoshu followed Zhe a few steps, picked up a wild horse next to him and threw it at the tauren: "I'll jump on the horse!"

The bull-headed man was hit so hard that he threw the chessboard and shouted: "I am flying elephant!"

Zaoshu laughed and said, "You still dare to fly like an elephant? If Master Qiu hears it, won't he kill you?"

The bull-headed man shouted: "If Master Qiu is not here, I will fly like a flying elephant!"

Just as he was about to find the elephant, Li Banfeng controlled the projector, the judge's pen and the wine gourd, turning into a ball of green fire and appearing in front of the bull-headed man: "Where are you going?"

"I am Flying Elephant——" The Tauren was stunned for a long time, then asked, "Who are you?"

Li Banfeng said: "I am the local god in this land."

The bull-headed man sneered: "Another one pretending to be the Earth God. Does the Earth God look like you?"

call!

A powerful force came over him, forcing the bull-headed man to take a few steps back.

Li Banfeng smiled and said, "You signed a contract with me at the beginning, but you no longer know me so quickly?"

Zao Shu said from the side: "Brother, this voice is the same as that of the Earth God back then!"

The bull-headed man lowered his head and said, "What are you doing for visiting me?"

Li Banfeng sighed and said, "If you haven't studied in school, don't write this article. Is this how a visit is used?"

The bull-headed man looked at the jujube tree.

Zaoshu snorted and said, "Look, what's the use of me? I don't even know what a visit is."

Li Banfeng said: "I have a business with you. Someone is opening up wasteland to the east of the forest. There is a three-mile plot of land. You can find some people to test them and reward you afterwards."

Upon hearing this, the bull-headed man was very happy: "Let's talk about the price first. How much reward will you give for the three-mile boundary?"

How much is appropriate?

In the past, when He Yuxiu, Zhang Wanlong, Nectarine and others came to open up wasteland, Meng Yuchun found all the aberrants who took the exam, and no aberrations were rewarded. Li Banfeng really had no idea how much the reward should be.

Now the bull-headed man asked, if Li Banfeng went to find Meng Yuchun again, he would lose his worth. After thinking for a moment, Li Banfeng said: "If you succeed in the exam, you will be given three months to cultivate."

The leaves on the old jujube branch trembled, and the bull-headed man asked: "Is three months a total number, or does everyone have it?"

In terms of total number, three months is a bit short.

But if everyone has it, I don't know how many people this old cow will have to get. If he gets 1,800 people, Li Banfeng can't afford it, and Chu Er can't resist it either.

Li Banfeng said: "Everyone has one, but it's capped at ten people.

The bull-headed man nodded and said, "I'll go gather some help right away!"

Zaoshu moved his body and said, "I'll go with you."

Seeing how proactive they were, Li Banfeng felt that he had given too much.

how?

Compare with whom.

If compared with Qiu Luoye, this amount is indeed too much. Qiu Luoye didn't give such a large reward, not because he was stingy, but because he didn't want to make the entrance exam too difficult.

But some earth gods give more than this. The reason is that some earth gods nourish people and some earth gods raise monsters.

The local gods who support people all want to reduce the difficulty of the school entrance examination and try to make their local area more popular. Of course, the most basic bottom line must be in place. They cannot just take away the plots just by random people, and eventually the plots will be abandoned.

.

The earth gods who raise monsters never expect this land to become a normal land. They hope to hone the monsters through generous rewards.

As there are more weird things, the popularity can also increase. More importantly, the Earth God has become stronger and can expand its territory and even completely annex the surrounding lands.

Whether to raise monsters or people, this is something that needs to be considered after arriving on the cloud. The matter of the school entrance examination was left to the tauren. Li Banfeng returned to his home, and suddenly felt that the atmosphere was not quite right.

Excited.

The wall was a little hot, and there was a slight roar and shaking from time to time. Although he didn't hear the old man's voice, Li Banfeng could feel that the whole person was excited!

The old man became excited, and everyone in the family felt afraid, and no one dared to speak loudly.

Gloves woke up from his sleep, ran to Li Banfeng from the shelf, and said in a low voice: "The old man found something good, it's in the third room."

"What good stuff?"

Could it be that he found the tracks on his own?

Glove said: "We don't dare to go in, the old man doesn't want us to see him.'

As Li Banfeng walked to the third room, his wife dissuaded him and said, "Sir, don't go and look. He probably just picked up a small thing outside. It's nothing special."

When the lady said this, Li Banfeng became even more curious. What kind of gadget could excite the old man so much?

As soon as he entered the door, Li Banfeng was stunned.

Five large stones were placed in the third room.

Li Banfeng said: "Old man, why did you bring the stone back?"

"Ah Qi!" The old man lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "This is the Tianxin Stone."

Tianxin stone?

I seem to have heard of it.

The old man reminded: "I told you before, the price of a piece of Tianxin Stone is as much as a pair of railroad tracks!"

The price of a pair of rails is equivalent to a Paramount.

Li Banfeng was overjoyed. He hugged the stone and said with a smile, "Go to Yaowanggou first and see Shopkeeper Feng's brother to discuss the price with him."

The old man asked: "What are you doing to discuss the price?"

"Sell it! You have to ask for at least one million oceans for this piece!"

"Sell it for whatever you want!" The old man got angry, "I want to keep it for building the station!"

Li Banfeng still remembered this. Three Tianxin stones were enough to build a big station, and he could stay at the big station for an hour.

But is there a big difference between an hour and half an hour?

So many Tianxin stones were used to repair the station, which made Li Banfeng feel a little distressed.

"Let's wait until we move to another place to build the station!"

Suiju said: "Ah Qi, take a long-term view. This is your territory. There are many things to do in the future. If you build a big station, you will have more time."

Li Banfeng smacked his lips: "The key is that there is already a station here."

"The land of joy before can be recovered. We can build the station in another place. It is useless to say that we will not waste things. I am impatient and want to build a big station now. Li Banfeng can only agree to it."

.

But what makes Li Banfeng feel strange is, where did these Tianxin stones come from?

"I have walked through this land countless times. Wherever I go, you follow me. Why have I never found the Tianxin Stone before?"

"The Tianxin Stone is an indescribable thing. The position of this thing is not fixed. We are lucky to catch it this time.

Five stones have gathered here!"

Li Banfeng couldn't figure out what it meant to be nameless.

After starting to repair the station with his wife, Li Banfeng first went to check on the status of the examination school.

Lao Niu brought ten strange monsters and was ready.

Li Banfeng transformed into a local god and said to Lao Niu: "If you can't beat him, stop as soon as possible. Don't risk your life for this."

Lao Niu smiled and said, "I'll bring you the words. It's hard to say whether I can hold them back."

Three months of cultivation was very tempting. When the time came, the monsters rushed into the land together.

Chu Er led eleven of his subordinates and rushed forward to meet the enemy. Within three miles, there was a melee.

After watching for more than half an hour, both sides were indifferent, so Li Banfeng left. He wanted to wander around the land to see if he could still find good things like the Tianxin Stone.

After walking south for more than three miles, the outline of a large mountain appeared in the hazy night.

Where did this mountain come from?

Li Banfeng is very familiar with his territory. There shouldn't be mountains here, it should be a grassland.

Could it be that I remembered it wrong?

I walked closer and took a look. The vegetation on this mountain was so lush that it was almost impossible to find a way up the mountain.

This mountain definitely does not exist in our own territory. This mountain appeared out of nowhere.

Li Banfeng did not rush up the mountain, he immediately went to Meng Yuchun's residence.

Meng Yuchun was sharpening her skills in front of the mirror. Li Banfeng was waiting at the door, but her interest was disturbed.

After seeing off the two sisters, Meng Yuchun wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "You came to me just to ask about the mountains? There are many hills on your land. What's so strange about that?"

Li Banfeng shook his head and said, "This is not a mountain on my territory."

Meng Yuchun laughed: "The territory of a hundred miles is not small, so how can I remember it so clearly? Isn't it reasonable to remember some places wrongly?"

Meng Yuchun was telling the truth. It was common for home builders to remember the wrong place. She didn't remember the boundaries of her own land very clearly.

Li Banfeng said: "I am a traveling cultivator, how can I not even remember a mountain?"

"What's wrong with traveling? Just say I remembered it wrong. How can I still laugh at you?" Meng Yuchun angrily followed Li Banfeng to the bottom of the mountain, raised his head and looked up at the mountain peak, but did not speak for a long time.

There is indeed no such a high mountain in Li Qi's territory.

Meng Yuchun pinched her chin and tried hard to give a reasonable explanation: "The new land is changing all the time. It is very reasonable to occasionally turn into a mountain."

Li Banfeng knew that Meng Yuchun was a face-loving person, so it was understandable that he would make occasional remarks in order to maintain face.

But this is too ridiculous!

According to Li Banfeng's understanding, the change of new land refers to the continuous birth of new land. Li Banfeng has never heard of a new land that can change after it is formed.

After making light talk, Meng Yuchun also felt that this matter was a bit strange: "When I go back and ask the cook, he is well-informed and should know similar things."

After Meng Yuchun left, Li Banfeng circled around the mountain, found a location where the trees were not too dense, and used his technique of breaking paths to open roads.

The trees receded on both sides, and a path appeared in front of them.

This path was seventy or eighty meters long. As Li Banfeng walked through it, the technique was immediately released and the forest returned to its original state.

Li Banfeng opened the road step by step until he reached the mountainside. Li Banfeng consumed a lot of energy, but the woods ahead were obviously much sparse, and he could walk through them without using any skills.

A few drops of water fell on his face, and Li Banfeng thought it was raining.

It also rains in Xindi, and rain is sometimes a life-saving straw for hunters, but today it is very clear, and the water drops come from the mist in the mountains and forests.

In the thick fog, Li Banfeng continued walking to the top of the mountain. From the vegetation, Li Banfeng saw no other living creatures, not even a bug.

When he was approaching the top of the mountain, Li Banfeng smelled a smell, the smell of ink,

Following the smell, Li Banfeng saw a desk in the woods. On the desk was an unfinished ink painting.

The picture shows a young man wearing a long gown and wearing a coin. His eyes are bright and he is looking into the distance.

There is a vitality unique to literati in his expression.

Because his arms were not yet completed, Li Banfeng didn't know what he was holding or what movements he was making.

There is an inkstone next to the scroll, and the ink on the inkstone has not yet dried.

There is someone on this mountain, and this person may not have gone far yet.

Li Banfeng looked around, and his eyes rested on the painting again.

The man in the painting was originally looking into the distance, but his eyes moved a little at some point, and now he is looking at Li Banfeng.

Li Banfeng stared at this ink painting for a long time, and suddenly he felt someone approaching.

Deep in the forest, a figure slowly reappeared and became clearer.

An old man in his sixties, with gray hair hanging loose, came to Li Banfeng holding a writing brush.

Painting masters Taiyue and Li Banfeng recognized this person.

Why is he on this mountain?
Chapter completed!
