Chapter 157 Entering Taoyuan
Yun Xi's words made the three of them feel their scalps tingling. Just as they were about to ask questions, they heard Liu Haotian say:

"The entrance is here."

Liu Haotian took a step forward and his figure disappeared in front of them. The three of them didn't even bother to communicate with each other, and their figures disappeared from the same place in a flash.

Before entering, Yun Xi adjusted her cultivation to the initial stage of foundation building. Among the four, she had the youngest bone age, the tenderest face, and the shortest stature. This cultivation level was most suitable for her, and she planned to play the pig and eat the tiger.

The main reason was that she was worried that the bronze mirror would notice that she was a Jindan Zhenren and would stop causing trouble. If the other party didn't cause trouble, how could they catch it?

When the four of them gathered together again, they found that they had arrived at a paradise on earth, which was exactly the same as the Taoyuan Village described by Yin Yong.

Looking at the blooming peach blossom forest in front of them, everyone was in a trance for a moment.

Yun Xi narrowed her eyes and said:

"The scenery here is nice, let's go inside and take a look!"

"Go and have a look."

Liu Haotian put away the compass and led the way in front, Yun Xi walked in second, followed by Yu Qingcheng and Xia You.

After the four of them passed through the entire gorgeous peach blossom forest, they saw houses scattered around in an orderly manner. Although the houses were not exquisite, they had a unique pastoral style.

Yun Xi blinked, touched Diandian who was sleeping in her arms, and said:
"Diandian, smell it and see if there is anything unusual here?"

Diandian crawled out from Yunxi's collar, rubbed his eyes with his paws, then sniffed, and after a while, he transmitted a message:

"Master, there is a very strange smell, neither good nor bad."

"Diandian, don't you smell any evil?"

"There is a trace, very faint, almost non-existent. It seems that an evil cultivator has stayed here. There is nothing more."

Just tell the truth.

"Let's go and take a look at that village."

Liu Haotian spoke first.

The three of them walked towards the village. The four of them walked casually, seemingly slowly but actually very fast.

"The four people in front, please wait."

A voice suddenly came from behind the four people, successfully stopping them.

When Yun Xi turned around, she saw a white-haired old man carrying firewood on his back. He was holding a thick wooden stick and quickening his pace towards them.

When the old man came in front of them, Xia You asked:
"My dear husband, what can I do for you?"

The old man took a deep breath and then said:
"This is what I want to ask you. What are you doing in Taoyuan Village?"

After saying this, he looked the four people up and down, very alert.

Yun Xi smiled and said:

"We are outsiders. We bought an ancestral house from someone in your Taoyuan Village. This time we are here to take possession of the house."

"Ancestral home? I haven't heard of anyone in the village selling their ancestral home. Isn't that forgetting one's ancestors?"

The old man said with an unhappy look on his face.

Yu Qingcheng rolled her eyes and said:

"Father-in-law, we paid real money to buy this house, and we have the title deed. Moreover, the other party sold the ancestral home to survive. The house is dead, but the person is alive. If he gets better, he can come back and rebuild the ancestral home at any time. Don't make arbitrary accusations if you don't understand the situation."

Yu Qingcheng's words were already quite impolite.

After hearing this, the old man’s face turned red and he kept saying “you” for a long time without saying a word.

Liu Haotian didn't even bother to say anything, he just turned around and left. The remaining three followed him, and after a while, only the old man was left standing there jumping up and down.

Yun Xi sent a message to the three people at the same time:

"This old man looks like a janitor."

Yu Qingcheng: "You're quite nosy. Fortunately, you found a good excuse."

Xia You: "They are resistant to outsiders, which is a bit wrong."

Liu Haotian: "Let's be careful after entering the village." The four of them communicated with each other while slowly walking into Taoyuan Village.

It was afternoon and the sun was not very strong. A group of children were playing and when they saw a stranger, they gathered around curiously.

"Who are you? What are you doing in our village?"

Yun Xi had the youngest face among the four people. She stepped forward to negotiate:
"We want to see the village chief. Can you tell me where he lives?"

"Beautiful sister, come with me, I will take you to see the village chief."

The little boy in the lead said shyly.

"Okay, thank you."

Then the four of them went to the village chief's house, surrounded by a group of little kids.

The village chief was a man in his fifties with a dark face. He looked like a farmer who worked all year round. He was holding a pipe in his hand and was a little surprised when he saw Yun Xi and the other three.

After inviting the person into the house, the village chief said politely:

"It's been a long time since any distinguished guest has visited Taoyuan Village. I wonder what brings you here?"

Liu Haotian said:

"We bought a house in Taoyuan Village from someone. Our elders plan to live here in their old age, so naturally, as their children, we have to take care of everything."

The village chief frowned before asking:
"I wonder which family's ancestral home you bought, and from whom."

"We bought it from a man named Yin Yong. He said that all his family members had passed away, so he sold his land and went out to make a living, leaving only the ancestral home in the care of the village chief."

The village chief was obviously taken aback and immediately asked:

"Have you met Yin Yong?"

"Yes."

"where is he?"

Liu Haotian glanced at the village chief and replied slowly:

"It's inconvenient to tell you. He said he sold his ancestral home and has no face to return, so please don't reveal his whereabouts."

The village chief sighed, knocked his pipe against the table leg, and then said:
"My dear gentlemen, I'm afraid you have been deceived."

"How to say?"

"Yin Yong's family is doing well. They just split up not long ago. The eldest and second sons of the Yin family have built their own houses. The old house is now occupied by the Yin couple. How could they possibly sell the ancestral home?"

“But we have already obtained the title deed.”

Liu Haotian calmly took out a new land deed from his sleeve pocket and pushed it in front of the village chief.

The village chief took a look and shook his head.

"This prodigal son must have stolen our family's land deeds. I was wondering why Third Yin would split up the family business. It's rare for families in the village whose parents are still alive to split up. It turns out they've been anticipating this."

Seeing that the village chief's expression did not seem fake, Yun Xi said:

"Although what Yin Yong said was all lies, this deed is real, and the money my brother and I spent is also real. We can't just let it go to waste, right? Even if we take the matter to the government, they should still vacate the house for us."

"Don't worry, my dear. Yin Yong was dishonest in this matter, but his parents are kind people and will never default on their debt. I will invite them over first, and we will sit down and discuss how to deal with this. I will definitely not let you suffer any loss."

Liu Haotian spoke on behalf of the four people:
"Okay, we'll wait."

The village chief then sent his grandson to call for help.

In less than a quarter of an hour, a group of people rushed into the village chief's yard.

The village chief knocked on his door unhappily and said:
"Just do what you need to do, don't join in the fun!"

After saying that, he asked his son to drive the villagers who were watching the fun out of the yard.

Then he said to the two men and women in their fifties who were a little reserved:
"Come in!"

After the Yin family entered the house, the village chief began to introduce them:

"This is Yin Yong's parents, that's his eldest brother Yin Shan's family, and on the other side is his second brother Yin Chuan's family. He is the youngest in the family and was not married when he left the village."
