Chapter 160 Successor

Behind Shekou Mountain, there was originally a large stretch of barren mountains.

After Er Gouzi bought it with one or two taels of silver, he began to transform it, investing a lot of manpower and material resources.

Sometimes there would be dozens or hundreds of immortal cultivators who would act at the same time and cast spells to transform the terrain.

After several years of transformation, the gaps between the highest peaks were finally surrounded, forming a huge artificial lake between the peaks.

When the lake is filled with water, it is enough to irrigate an area of ​​dozens of miles.

The overall scale is more than ten times larger than Dingjiazhuang.

With this lake, there will be no more fear of drought in the future.

Er Gouzi also planted a lot of iron thorns on the mountain beside the lake, enclosing a large area and occupying several hilltops.

Now the iron thorns have not grown up yet, and there are not enough people to work.

When Yushan's family members are taken over in the future, this large area can be planted with spiritual medicine.

He may even become a major spiritual medicine grower in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Of course, all this requires Yushan's efforts.

"Yushan, your wings are gone. Can your cultivation strength still grow?"

"If you take some spiritual objects or use some spiritual stones, although you can't fly, your cultivation strength can still grow."

Yushan didn't know why his master suddenly cared about his cultivation strength. He was a little uneasy and could only answer truthfully.

"That's good!"

"I was worried that your strength could not grow."

Knowing that Yushan's strength could still grow, Ergouzi was very relieved.

"You work hard every day. Take this bottle of Peiyuan Pill."

Yushan saw the Peiyuan Pill in front of him and thought he had seen it wrong or heard it wrong.

He opened his big watery eyes wide, hesitated for a long time, and didn't dare to reach out to take it.

"Master, are you really giving it to me?"

"Of course it's for you. We are all family."

Ergouzi generously stuffed a whole bottle of pills into Yushan's arms.

"Don't be so formal with your family. Ask me for more pills after you finish them."

"Thank you, Master!"

Yushan took the pill bottle half-heartedly, his ears fluttering and his big eyes blinking, tears of emotion welling up in his eyes.

"Master, you are so good to me. I will always be your most loyal servant."

"Alas! Yushan, I may have been a little harsh before, and I've made you suffer!"

"In fact, we are a family. In the future, this Shekou Mountain and a large piece of land over there will be handed over to you, and you will also be the owner of this land."

Er Gouzi patted Yushan's shoulder and pointed to the transformed lake and the large mountain in the distance.

Yushan followed the direction of Er Gouzi's finger and saw the large continuous mountains.

Thinking that he would become the owner of this large piece of land in the future, a sense of grandeur and heroism arose spontaneously.

"You are the person I trust the most, so you must practice well and strengthen your strength so that you can take over this large piece of land in the future."

Er Gouzi patted Yushan's shoulder and spoke earnestly.

"Look at our mountain, those snakes are clumsy, the geese can't even talk, and the dog is lazy and greedy. Only you are the one I trust the most.

I have always had high hopes for you, but don't let me down."

"Hmm..."

Yushan nodded repeatedly. He might have really misunderstood his master before.

It turns out that the master has such high expectations of himself and values ​​him so much.

"I know!"

"Master, you are so good to me. I am so ungrateful. It was all my fault before."

Yushan was holding the pill bottle, and he was already moved to tears and cried.

"I will never run away again. I will work hard and contribute to this family!"

Yushan wiped his tears and snot, picked up the hoe and went to work in the field.

I saw Yushan's two arms swinging out, like a windmill, swinging the hoe and digging the ground quickly.

It took only a while to clear the grass on an acre of land.

Er Gouzi opened his eyes wide. After so many years, he only realized today that Yushan worked so fast.

It seems that human potential is really unlimited, but most people have not been stimulated.

"Yushan, slow down, don't get tired!"

"I'm not tired! Master, don't worry!"

Er Gouzi reminded him, but he didn't expect Yushan to work faster.

I really didn't expect that Yushan, who was only three feet tall, had such great energy.

Er Gouzi looked for a while, then picked up a letter from the stone house and flew down the mountain.

The letter was to be sent to the King of Qi in the capital through the post station.

In the past few years, he and Sima Yi have been in contact through letters.

Through the letters, he learned that Sima Yi had found a small job in a government office in the capital.

It's just that in the past one or two years, he sent several letters, but Sima Yi didn't reply, like a stone sinking into the sea.

He didn't know what happened over there, which made him a little worried.

So he planned to send this letter today directly to the King of Qi.

After Er Gouzi came down the mountain, he gave the letter to Sun Wangcai and asked him to go to the post station to mail it.

Under Er Gouzi's training, Sun Wangcai has now cultivated to the fourth level of Qi training.

With such a level of cultivation, he is considered a small master in the entire Anchang County.

Sun Wangcai was gone for half a day, but when he came back, he brought back two people, one in each hand.

Er Gouzi saw that the two men looked familiar. They should be nearby villagers, or even his tenants.

"What's going on?"

Sun Wangcai threw the man to the ground and kicked him twice.

"On the way back from posting a letter, I caught two spies."

"These two guys are traitors and have become undercover agents of the cult."

"Boss, please spare us. We just coveted the two dou of rice given by the cult. We didn't do anything bad."

The two men were indeed Er Gouzi's tenants. Now that they were caught in the act, they could only slap themselves hard.

For two dou of rice again!

Er Gouzi remembered that his father and uncle also joined the cult for two dou of rice.

The tenants under his command were too poor to take risks for two dou of rice.

I couldn't help but think of the tenants I saw in Dingjiazhuang.

Although they were tenants, they wore clothes without patches, had ruddy faces, and were full of confidence. They would not join a cult for two dou of rice.

"Boss, we will never dare to do it again!"

"Pa pa pa..."

Both of them knelt on the ground and beat themselves desperately to beg for Er Gouzi's forgiveness.

"Do you know that joining a cult will result in the confiscation of property and beheading?"

"I know..."

The two could only admit it honestly.

"I know you still dare..."

Er Gouzi really wanted to kick the two men to death, but then he thought that when he was poor and destitute, he would also risk his life for two dou of rice.

"I will give you two choices now."

"One is to escort you to the county government and let the county magistrate deal with you."

"I choose the second one..."

"I also choose the second one..."

The two kowtowed repeatedly. If they were handed over to the government, they would not be able to survive, and they would even drag down their entire family to death.

Therefore, before the second choice was spoken, the two resolutely chose the second one.
