"Plunk~" Yang Xiaohai, who had closed his eyes, buried his head heavily in the clear and transparent river water.

After shaking it vigorously a few times, he suddenly lifted it up, revealing a hint of pleasure on his face.

He finished washing and drinking at the same time.

"The water here is really sweet."

Feeling the water droplets on his chin with his hand, Yang Xiaohai picked up a bucket of water and started heading back.

The long journey, coupled with no longer being hungry, made his body no longer thin and weak like when he was a beggar.

His body had flesh on it, his complexion was no longer yellow, and he had grown taller.

"Good morning, Senior Cao." Yang Xiaohai greeted Dog Wa, who was circling around a woman.

Seeing that Dog Wa didn't have time to pay attention to him, Yang Xiaohai smiled and walked towards the pot.

He wasn't a clueless child. Being precocious, he understood why Dog Wa was so attentive.

There was no fire under the pot because the others hadn't woken up yet. They needed to wait until everyone was awake before cooking the noodles.

After putting down the bucket, he took a piece of firewood from under the pot and walked towards Chun Xiaoman, who was practicing swordsmanship.

Arriving at the flying cold light, he raised the wooden stick in his hand and swung it in a similar manner.

He was very focused, even as focused as Chun Xiaoman.

Seeing this scene, Chun Xiaoman turned her wrist and stabbed towards Yang Xiaohai.

Yang Xiaohai was flustered and fell back hastily. He fell onto the soft grass.

Chun Xiaoman, who was holding the sword with one hand, said to Yang Xiaohai, who was sitting on the ground, "Get up and continue practicing. If you want to learn, just practicing alone won't do."

There was a time when Li Huowang practiced with her, but with his current condition, it was unlikely.

Yang Xiaohai nodded excitedly and stabbed with the wooden stick.

He was willing to practice swordsmanship and didn't mind the hardship. After he became proficient, even if he went back to being a beggar, no one would dare to bully him.

After practicing for a while, he saw Bai Lingmiao coming out of the cart.

Chun Xiaoman put away her sword, "Okay, go make some food. They're all awake now."

"Okay!" Yang Xiaohai rushed back. When he arrived at the pot, his facial features wrinkled.

He found that someone had replaced him in his job and was using the fire sickle to start a fire.

It was a fat woman, one of the women Li Shixiong had rescued from the bandit's lair.

Actually, when they were at the pass before, a group of horse riders died, and she was the only one who survived.

"Get out of the way!" He walked over, snatched the fire sickle, and took back his position.The fat woman wasn't angry and smiled shyly, "Hey, fellow villager, you're here?"

Yang Xiaohai only casually said a few words before, but he didn't expect the other party to start building a relationship, saying that they were from the same place.

He hated these women, they were not loyal at all.

Saved by Li Huowang, they had been eating and drinking from him for so long. Before, at the checkpoint, he even secretly ran away with a few of them.

What's more, these remaining women always intentionally or unintentionally stole his work, which made him particularly annoyed with them, especially the fat woman with a mole on her chin in front of him.

"Don't call me a fellow villager, we're not the same."

God knows why it was so coincidental, the other party was actually born in the place he made up.

The fat woman smiled and a dimple naturally appeared on her left cheek.

She started to follow Yang Xiaohai and help him out, constantly chatting with him.

"Hey, fellow villager, what's that man's name? He's really strong."

Yang Xiaohai turned his head and saw Gao Zhijian biting his teeth and holding up a giant halberd in the distance, the veins on his neck bulging like a green snake.

"What's it to you?" Yang Xiaohai's voice was a little impatient.

"Are you annoyed with me, fellow villager?" She smiled and reached out to touch a stain on Yang Xiaohai's clothes.

"Don't touch me!" Yang Xiaohai suddenly got angry, making the fat woman move back a bit and say aggrievedly, "What did I do to you? I finally met a fellow villager, I just want to get close to you."

"I was sold a long time ago. This is the first time I've seen someone from my hometown."

Seeing her like this, Yang Xiaohai swallowed the harsh words that were about to come out of his mouth.

"Just stay put in the future and don't take my work."

"My benefactor is injured, I...I just want to help him."

Hearing this, Yang Xiaohai looked towards the ox cart in the distance.

Li Huowang lived there. Various things that had happened before suddenly rushed into his mind, and his heart became worried.

Li Shixiong was their backbone, he couldn't have any problems.

The sparks from the sickle hitting the ground ignited the dry grass in the pit, and the flames from the dry grass ignited the firewood.

Yang Xiaohai stood up, patted the dirt off his body, and walked towards the ox cart with a worried look.

As he approached, he heard someone talking."What do you want to say? What do you want to do to take Peng Longteng away?"

Yang Xiaohai walked to the other side of the ox cart and saw Li Huowang leaning against the window.

Compared to his previous charred appearance, he looked much better now.

But this kind of improvement was particularly terrifying.

Half of his head was covered in skin, while the other half was bare with black scabs scattered throughout.

The skin on his mouth was burned, exposing two rows of white teeth that clicked together.

Not only did he look strange, but he also stared blankly at nothing and muttered to himself.

"Monk, help me out. Go ask him if he has any unfulfilled wishes."

"I know he's pitiful, and I sympathize with him, but why does he have to bother me?"

"Shouldn't he be bothering Peng Longteng, who killed him?"

Suddenly, Li Huowang's one eye twisted rapidly, staring at Yang Xiaohai.

This scene scared Yang Xiaohai so much that his scalp went numb, and his feet almost turned to run.

He now understood why Senior Li's ox cart always deliberately stayed far away from them.

Senior Li now was much scarier than the previous evil spirit.

"What's wrong?"

Yang Xiaohai was so scared that he didn't know where to put his hands.

"Li...Li...Senior Li, are you okay?" he asked fearfully and concerned.

Then he saw Senior Li completely ignore him and continue to mutter to himself about nothing.

Worried Yang Xiaohai returned to the big iron pot, but was stopped by Gouwa who grabbed his shoulder.

"How is Senior Li?"

Yang Xiaohai shook his head in disappointment. "I think Senior Li's illness has worsened. Should we find a doctor to see him?"

"Hey, what doctor can cure Senior Li's illness? Even the old leper could only suppress it."

Gouwa stood aside, frowning and thinking of a solution.

"That old leper gave him the Black Tai Sui back then. I still remember what that ghost thing looked like, but where can we find it now?"
