A village didn't have many paddy fields. Eight Corner Village had less than a thousand people, and the paddy fields were only around a thousand mu. However, there were a lot of dry land and barren hills. Of course, in a village, the value of the three types of land was completely different. Paddy fields were naturally the most valuable resource. When the land was expropriated, the three types of land would be expropriated at different prices. This gave me a headache even though I was a cultivator. Thus, I didn't even think about it and directly let Lin Yi's father have a headache.
Xia Wanxiao also hoped that we could invest in other areas of Qiu Shan County, but I only wanted to take over the land around Eight Corner Village. As for the future expansion, that was Lin Yi's father's problem.
Even so, it still solved a big problem for Xia Wanxiao. This made Xia Wanxiao's following promotion very exciting. When everyone thought that the investment was a failure, Xia Wanxiao unexpectedly completed the task. Moreover, a year later, when the West Nong Group in the neighboring county caused a lot of dissatisfaction among the farmers, it led to very serious consequences. It also showed that Xia Wanxiao's persistence was completely correct. Actually, Xia Wanxiao was able to stand against the objections of the masses mainly because the West Nong Group's plan involved Eight Corner Village. Xia Wanxiao knew what would happen if she angered me. She didn't expect to hit the jackpot. Not only did she get rid of the hidden danger, but she also succeeded in attracting investment. Thus, she was successfully promoted. Of course, this was a story for later.
Although she drew a big pie in Eight Corner Village, this pie wasn't useful for the time being. I was still studying. It wasn't time for me to live in seclusion or establish a sect. Although I established the Dream Realm Sect, it was just a joke. There was still a long way to go before I could truly establish a sect.
I couldn't help much with the remaining matters. It was almost time for school to start, so I had to prepare to go back to school.
"You'll be leaving soon. Go and see your grandfather. I don't know if you can see him the next time you come back, "Grandpa muttered as he saw me pack my things in the room.
"Grandfather is sick?" I was stunned.
"When people get old, it's just like that," Grandpa shook his head.
"Then I'll go tonight," I nodded and said.
When I went to Grandfather's house, the moon was already out. The bright moonlight made Eight Corner Village even more mysterious. The thin mist drifted about the village, and the air was moist from the small droplets of mist.
The elderly went to bed early, and Grandpa was already lying on the bed. When he heard that I had come, he hurriedly asked his family members to pour me some tea. He also wanted to get out of bed.
"I'm old and useless. Lying on the bed for a long time, there was no heat. It doesn't seem very comfortable to plug in this electric blanket. "First Grandpa trembled as he prepared to put on his clothes.
"Grandfather, don't be so courteous. Just stay in bed and don't get up. You'll catch a cold. "I quickly stopped him.
"Yang Yang, are you going to study in Beijing? In our Eight Corner Village, the Huang surnamed you are the most capable. Your father, Zhengyou, is blind. He has such a good son. If it was someone else, they would have treated him like a treasure. "Big Grandpa defended me again.
"Dad, why are you saying all this? Eldest Granduncle's eldest son, my uncle, hurriedly stopped him. She was afraid that I would feel awkward after hearing it.
"Hehe, I'm old, so I'm talking nonsense. Yang Yang, Grandpa feels that the time has come. The next time I come back, I'm afraid I won't be able to see your Grandpa again. "Big Grandpa's eyes started to moisten.
"Yang Yang, don't listen to your Grandpa's nonsense. This old man often likes to think nonsense. "Uncle hurriedly said.
"I know my own body. It's in a few days." Big Grandpa said with certainty.
I knew what Big Grandpa meant. He felt that he wouldn't live for many days. I carefully looked at Big Grandpa and was shocked. A ball of death energy was continuously spreading in his body.
Where did the death energy come from? Could it be that when the death energy spread in Eight Corner Mountain last year, Big Grandpa was also corroded by it?
"Grandpa, why are you like this? Is it caused by what happened last year? "I hurriedly asked.
Big Grandpa shook his head and laughed, "Yang Yang can see it too. This isn't caused by what happened last year. Grandpa is old. He's over ninety years old. He's a lot older than your grandfather. He's like a lamp that has run out of oil. Big Grandpa is old. "
I carefully checked Big Grandpa's body. His organs and body were all dim. He really was at the end of his life.
I held Big Grandpa's hand and inserted some vital energy into it to see if it could improve Big Grandpa's body. However, when the vital energy entered Big Grandpa's body, it only caused the death energy in his body to weaken slightly. What shocked me even more was that the vital energy I inserted into Big Grandpa's body slowly drifted out. The biggest reason for his body wasn't because of the death energy corrosion, but because his body couldn't contain any vital energy. When a person's vital energy was damaged, it would be greatly damaged. For someone like Big Grandpa who was losing vital energy, it meant that his life was reaching its end.
Big Grandpa seemed to know my intentions. He smiled at me and shook his head, "Child, don't worry. Big Grandpa has no regrets. "
After talking to Big Grandpa for a long time, I prepared to go home. Just as I walked to the door of Big Grandpa's house, I suddenly felt an intense chill. I actually saw two people standing in Big Grandpa's courtyard.
"How unlucky. I came here for nothing. Isn't this person at the end of his lifespan? Why was it delayed for another twenty-four hours? "One of them muttered softly.
"How would I know? The order from above was for this time. Eh? No, they changed the time, "said the other.
"How could they change it so casually? If they wanted to change it, they should have done it before we came out … "The person who had spoken earlier suddenly stopped talking.
The other person was puzzled, "What's wrong?"
The person who had spoken earlier pouted, "He, he seems to be able to see us."
When I heard him say that, I found it strange too. "Does he mean that I shouldn't be able to see him? Why shouldn't I be able to see him? "
I suddenly felt that these two people were really strange. It was as though I couldn't see what they looked like. It was really blurry. I suddenly released my Divine Consciousness, wanting to see their true faces.
"Cultivators! D * mn! No wonder we came here for nothing. "When I released my Divine Consciousness, the person who had spoken earlier exclaimed in surprise. They were actually so sensitive to my Divine Consciousness.
These two people weren't simple. Under the gaze of my Divine Consciousness, how could these two people be human? Clearly, they were two divine souls. Their divine souls were much stronger than my Divine Consciousness. All the hairs on my body stood on end in an instant.
"You haven't even condensed your Primordial Spirit, yet you dare to meddle in the affairs of our Ghost World! Hmph! "
Of the two divine souls, the one who had spoken earlier emitted a red light, which should be of the fire attribute. The other one emitted a faint blue light, which should be of the water attribute.
The cold snort of the fire attribute divine soul was like a muffled thunder, causing my vision to turn black. My Divine Consciousness immediately retreated into my body.
Puff! I spat out a mouthful of blood. His cold snort had actually caused me such a serious injury.
My blood stained the bronze plate that I had always hung around my neck. The bronze plate suddenly exploded, and a strong light burst out from the bronze plate.
"Not good! He has an immortal treasure on him! "The fire attribute divine soul screamed.
"I told you not to attack cultivators. You just had to attack. This is troublesome. This guy actually has a backer! "The water attribute divine soul complained.
The two divine souls fled in panic. Suddenly, a strange passage appeared in the sky. Those two divine souls must have used this passage to come from the Ghost World. I quickly took out a compressed Demon Trapping Formation and threw it toward the Ghost World's passage in the air.
"Ah!" The Demon Trapping Formation suddenly chased after the two divine souls. The two divine souls screamed again and again, but in the end, they still managed to escape. The Demon Trapping Formation and the passage collided, causing the passage to shake violently, almost collapsing. However, the passage was still maintained for a long time.
I've suffered quite a bit as well. He's the strongest enemy I've ever met. I didn't know where these two divine souls came from, but they were unexpectedly so strong. Even if I used the formation, I might not be able to deal with them. Moreover, I had a doubt. Eight Corner Village's formation was activated, so how could they enter Eight Corner Village so easily?
It was a pity that those two fellows had escaped. There were many mysteries that couldn't be solved.
After receiving such a heavy blow, my divine soul was seriously injured. Thus, I had to delay my trip to Yanjing by one day.
However, I didn't expect that Great Grandpa would leave the next night. I didn't know if those two divine souls had taken him away.
It wasn't easy for me to walk back home, but as soon as I got home, I fell into a coma. Grandpa was worried to death. He didn't know what kind of injury I had suffered. When I woke up, I heard a familiar voice in the village. It was a sound that would only be made when a dead person was holding a ceremony.
I forced myself to open my eyes. What I saw was Grandpa and the others' anxious gazes.
"Why is it so noisy outside?" I asked.
"Your Great Grandpa passed away. Your Uncle is building a training ground for your Great Grandpa. What happened when you went to Great Grandpa's house yesterday? Why did you vomit blood when you got home? "Grandpa asked worriedly.
"It's nothing. He accidentally went berserk while practicing martial arts. Luckily, I managed to control it in time. Don't worry, I'm fine now. "I could only make up an excuse.
"Since you're awake, you're fine. Yang Yang, you have to be more careful in the future. "Uncle Kui Zi had been helping me at home.
"You can all go and do your things. I'm really fine now. "I had to properly digest the information I had received.
The two divine souls said that the patient's lifespan had suddenly increased by twenty-four hours. It should be the effect of the vital energy I had injected into Great Grandpa. I thought it was useless, but I didn't expect it to be able to increase his lifespan by one year.
