Chapter 487: Chapter 479 Wicked Sorcery_1

“`

For a man with the cultivation of a Fourfold Commoner, as long as he put in a bit of effort, it was entirely possible to complete.

Qin Niu arrived at the Ancient Banyan Tree with Xiao Qing and the Green Ox; Wang Wanyan and Tang Caixian had already been waiting there.

Since only Qin Niu possessed the ability to navigate out of the banyan’s maze, the two dared not enter.

“Everyone, go in and cultivate!”

Qin Niu didn’t rush to enter but instead released two War Bees to monitor the movents of Liu Qing.

Soon, he noticed that Liu Qing had also entered the mountain.

However, instead of heading in this direction, Liu Qing circumvented the mountain ridge Qin Niu had bought and headed toward Woniuling.

Woniuling was part of an unclaid mountain range.

It mainly consisted of low hills that rose and fell, surrounding the northern region of Jade Stream Town. Most woodcutters preferred to go into this range to chop wood and gather firewood.

Since the hills were low, there were rarely any fierce beasts to be found there.

Occasionally, one or two jackals would appear, and even wolves seldom ventured there.

However, Woniuling had plenty of wild rabbits.

Qin Niu had been there several tis; rabbit burrows could be seen everywhere. While they looked only as big as the mouth of a bowl, the burrows were deep and had multiple exits.

The wild rabbits there were extrely cunning, quickly hiding in their burrows at the slightest hint of movent.

If soone dug into their burrows, they would imdiately escape through other passages.

Due to the abundance of rabbit holes in that mountain range, skilled hunters rarely went there to hunt.

Although there seed to be many rabbits, they were quite difficult to catch.

So less experienced hunters, who didn’t dare go deep into the mountains to hunt large wild animals like wild boars and Black Bears, often set various traps in Woniuling to solve their food and clothing needs.

They set traps, laid nets, or dug deep pits.

The rabbits in those mountains seed to have beco sentient, gradually learning to recognize the various traps and rarely triggering the chanisms.

Instead, the woodcutters and villagers who went into the mountains to chop wood suffered; it was common for them to accidentally get caught in animal traps or fall into pits. Last month, a rich town family’s second young master bought a book to learn the art of alchemy.

He entered the mountains seeking to harvest dicinal herbs for practice and unfortunately stepped on an animal trap, injuring his leg.

Barely escaping the trap, he then fell into a pitfall.

When found, the second young master’s body was pierced by several sharpened bamboo stakes; he was not yet dead, clinging to life by a thread.

After being rescued, upon seeing his relatives, he said with a sobbing tone, “Dad, I’ll never co to Woniuling again; it’s all traps and snares, really no place for people.”

Later, the wealthy family sent their son to the best dical facility in Black Tiger City and treated him for more than twenty days. His life was saved.

The expenses must have been substantial.

The rich man’s wife relentlessly cursed the hunters for their immoral traps, day and night.

The second young master developed a strange illness; as soon as night fell, he would squat on the ground and hop like a rabbit, unable to be pulled up.

Although Woniuling was filled with various traps to catch wild rabbits, for experienced woodcutters, it was not a dangerous place.

They would often use their long sticks for carrying firewood to feel the way ahead.

Moreover, they went into the mountains every day to chop wood, familiar with the routes. Everyone would stick to the safe paths that had been checked.

If soone was unfortunate enough to get caught in an animal trap, they would call out for help from their fellow villagers.

The second young master was a townsman with a wealthy family; he hadn’t suffered much hardship in life, much less had experience in mountain climbing or harvesting herbs. He was just a rash youth who, on a whim, ran to Woniuling to dig for herbs—it was like courting death.

He was lucky; fate left him a breath of life.

Otherwise, a few more lives would not have been enough to survive in there.

Liu Qing going to Woniuling to chop wood was not unusual. Qin Niu sent out the War Bees to watch for a while, ultimately deciding not to bother with it any further.

He too entered the maze within the Ancient Banyan Tree and began to cultivate.

But not long after he began to cultivate, he sensed sothing and slowly discontinued his practice.

Just now, the Green Silk Worm lurking above Xu Zhenchang’s head picked up on so anomalies.

“Village chief, why have you been avoiding lately?”

This was Mada Zhao’s voice.

It sounded sowhat coquettish.

Qin Niu thought to himself, “She runs to Xu Zhenchang for a rendezvous as soon as she sends Liu Qing out to chop wood; could this woman be short of money again? She’s earned so much by selling herself, where on earth is it all going?”

“Mada Zhao, we shouldn’t see each other anymore. My wife has found out about us, and now I’m in so much debt I can’t give you any more money.”

“`

Xu Zhenchang this ti indeed withstood the temptation and resolutely drew a clear line with Mada Zhao.

“Why are you so cold? When you needed , you didn’t act like this. Village chief, I know you’ve been very troubled lately, I can help you relieve your worries and make you happy!”

“I don’t need it! From now on, you go your way, and I’ll go mine. Let’s not see each other anymore!”

Xu Zhenchang said very decisively.

“Are all n so heartless? Your family has dozens of acres of good land, what does spending a little matter? Besides, money can be earned again! With the village chief’s abilities, you will definitely earn more silver money in the future, and then you will be even richer than the Yan Family.”

Mada Zhao coquettishly tried to stop Xu Zhenchang from leaving.

“Move aside! Otherwise, don’t bla for getting rough!”

Xu Zhenchang shouted angrily.

“Go on then, get rough! I just love your domineering manner, you’re so manly! See, you can’t bear to hit , can you? Village chief, I know you still have in your heart. Do you think I’m pretty?”

Mada Zhao was surely tilting her face up at this mont, staring at Xu Zhenchang with eyes that could lt a man’s resolve.

“You dare not even look at ? I’m not even asking you for money! Can you just look at once?”

She pleaded softly.

Xu Zhenchang very likely turned his head away, not looking at her.

As a mature and stable man, he should know what can and cannot be done.

Qin Niu had previously warned Xu Zhenchang not to associate with Mada Zhao anymore.

Xu Zhenchang must have also realized the danger.

Besides, n are always looking for novelty. Xu Zhenchang had been involved with Mada Zhao for quite so ti already, and once the novelty wore off, he naturally wouldn’t be as infatuated as before.

“Move aside!”

Xu Zhenchang shouted angrily again.

“I won’t move! Look at once before you leave!”

She cooed in front of Xu Zhenchang.

Xu Zhenchang was quite a bit older than her, which also gave her confidence and an advantage.

“If I look at you once, you’ll move aside, won’t you?”

“Mhm!”

She responded with a soft hum.

What followed was silence.

Qin Niu felt sothing was off. Xu Zhenchang should have looked at her once by now and then demanded that she move out of the way again.

But neither of them spoke again, and that probably wasn’t good.

However, no indecent sounds erged; perhaps the two were locked in a deep gaze?

“Village chief, do you find beautiful?”

“Beautiful!”

“Then why are you so determined to draw a line with ?”

Mada Zhao inquired after the reason.

“It’s not that I’m heartless; it’s that my wife found out about us, and she made a fuss about committing suicide. Master Qin also advised not to see you anymore!”

Qin Niu had a sinking feeling that sothing was amiss.

No matter how much Xu Zhenchang lost his senses, he shouldn’t have implicated Qin Niu.

“So, do you still intend to draw a line with now?”

“Of course not! You are my sweetheart…”

Xu Zhenchang’s voice beca urgent.

Bad news, he might have fallen for Mada Zhao’s tricks again.

Qin Niu was secretly anxious.

At this point, there was nothing he could do to help Xu Zhenchang.

What kind of spell had Mada Zhao cast that made Xu Zhenchang change his attitude by a hundred and eighty degrees in such a short ti?

Qin Niu thought of how Mada Zhao had been insisting that Xu Zhenchang look into her eyes.

The problem likely lay there.
