Alien Invasion: The Almighty Daughter Returns

The golden leaves slowly fell across the blue intersecting lines.

This is a quiet little mountain village.

Clear ponds and rural rice fields.

The old ox enjoys farming.

The barking of dogs disturbs the harmonious tranquility.

"Bump bump bump."

"Old Li, open the door! Pay me back the money I borrowed last year. Don't hide at home and keep silent. I saw you eating delicious steamed buns in the county town yesterday when I went to the market!"

The man's rough leather and linen clothes are as broad as a tiger, and his waist is as strong as a bear.

"What are you making so much noise for? Can't you let me rest well so early in the morning?"

"Widow Du, Old Li lent me five copper coins and promised to pay me back next month, but he hasn't paid me back since then."

A surge of anger rushed to my head.

"It's none of my business. You guys should handle your little issues outside. It would be bad if you disturb the gods' rest."

"Yes, yes, that's right."

When the burly man heard the word "immortal", his face changed and he clasped his fists in embarrassment.

Yang Xi put the golden leaf, which had shrunk to the size of a palm, back into his pocket.

“There are actually indigenous people in the secret realm.”

Jiang Muwan felt curious when a bamboo dragonfly landed on her hand and swayed.

"Or, let's go in and ask for some water to drink."

Qiu Ke hung a white short-sleeved shirt on his shoulders, climbed up a tree, broke off a banana leaf, and waved it back and forth.

"Stop! Which village are you from? Why are you dressed so strangely?"

Two of the four people wore masks and one was covered with a mask, and Qiu Ke watched the show with gloating glee.

"The world is in decline, half naked."

"My dear brother, what's wrong with a man showing half of his body?"

Qiu Ke's face turned red.

You are not a girl, why should you be shy?

The burly man looked at his pale skin strangely and lowered his gaze.

"Are you a man?"

"The four of us came down from the county town to look for relatives. Can we ask for some water while we're passing by here?"

Ling Xuan interrupted in time and interrupted the nonsensical conversation.

Tiezhu noticed that two of the four women were petite. Although their faces could not be seen clearly because of the strange masks they were wearing, they must be young ladies from wealthy families who came out to play to have such fair and tender skin.

"My name is Tiezhu. My wife has just brought two buckets of fresh river water from the mountain. Please follow me."

"Thank you for your help, Brother Tiezhu."

Yang Xi passed by Qiu Ke and shook his head in amusement, "I guess he thinks you are a flat-chested little girl."

People in small rural villages are most likely to be feudal and superstitious. Look at how they dress, like they are people from ancient times.

Jiang Muwan mentioned it.

"There are still people wearing coarse linen clothes these days. Wasn't the term copper coin a currency used hundreds of years ago?"

In particular, Widow Du mentioned by Tiezhu as a god.

"Everyone be careful." Ling Xuan said in a low voice.

People planting rice on both sides of the field were pointing and whispering.

"Where did Tiezhu get this stuff from? Look at the girl's skin, it's as soft as tofu."

"Don't worry about it. Be careful if someone comes to your house and commits fraud. Even the gods can't protect you."

"What a pity! If a foreigner falls into Tiezhu's hands, he can't get out unless he is chopped into a human stick."

They tried their best to lower their voices, but every word they spoke fell into Ling Xuan's ears without missing a word.

Tiezhu has a strong build and a simple smile.

"Don't mind it. Villagers love to gossip. They only talk about trivial matters."

A gray-brown python emerged from the field.

It has a black fleshy crest on the top of its head, and the sides of its head are spotted with brown-grey scales alternating with dark yellow markings.

"Python! Watch out!"

Qiu Ke got into position and his hands dissolved into liquid.

"and many more!"

"hiss--"

Jiang Muwan stopped in front and repeated the words according to its mouth shape.

"Go, it's dangerous, get away from here quickly."

"You beast, you dare to come out and do this in broad daylight!"

Tiezhu pulled out the steel fork mixed with mud in the field and stabbed it into the snake's vital point. The python bent into a bow shape and drilled madly into the field.

The python glared at the iron pillar fiercely with its tongue sticking out.

When the indigenous people heard the noise, they started a frenzy of catching snakes.

"Don't be afraid, I beat the beast away."

"Why should we hit the snake when it's so cute!" Ling Xuan stomped her feet.

???

They watched Ling Xuan collectively type “?”

"Qiya? Are you okay?" Yang Xi was stunned.

"Young lady, you don't know that this python is extremely poisonous. If you are bitten by it, you will die within three days. Even gods can't save you."

"Gods? Are there really gods in this world? If there are, why can't they even cure snake venom?"

"Of course!"

Tiezhu frowned unhappily when he heard someone questioning the existence of gods.

"Everyone's fate is predetermined by heaven. If the gods interfere with people's birth, aging, illness and death, it will bring suffering to ordinary people like us. His kind heart will naturally not let this happen."

Tiezhu clasped his hands together, closed his eyes, and raised his head high, looking very pious.

"Thanks to the existence of the gods, we in Qili Village can live and work in peace and contentment."

"You seem to know a lot about it. So, what do gods look like?"

"of course......"

Tiezhu stopped talking, his face pulled down and became as tight as paste.

"Are you trying to trick me?"

"I just think the python is cute and I can't bear to see it treated like this. After all, we are all living beings!"

"Ding--"

A golden yellow light appeared behind Ling Xuan.

Yang Xi was stunned. "I seem to see holy light. What is this?! The legendary Virgin Mary!"

The banana leaf in Qiu Ke's hand fell and he covered his eyes to block out the glaring light.

"Dude, no way, you brought something weird."

Tiezhu didn't ask any more questions, thinking that the people in the county had never seen the horror of a python.

Jiang Muwan has the ability to speak animal language and has a strong affinity for animals. She agreed with Ling Xuan's words and stroked the little dragonfly that landed on her hand, her eyes gradually softening.

Suddenly the dragonfly's little head turned into a human head.

Her hands trembled and she almost screamed.

The transparent wings on the back of the red dragonfly flap slightly.

The head belonged to a frail scholar, with a hair bun on his head and a pale, thin face that looked melancholy.

"What's the point of living? Why not live happily together? Come on, be a couple of gods, free from the seven emotions and six desires, free from the constraints of the mortal body, and live happily and freely."

"I don't want to be free!"

Jiang Muwan shook her hands vigorously, and the dragonfly with a melancholy face flew over her head.

"Why bother? There will always be such a day."

Then they saw the girl in the rabbit mask's head spinning like a top.

Suddenly, someone tugged at Jiang Muwan's sleeve, and the familiar coolness calmed her irritability.

"Ignore him, treat him as air."

"Qiya, you, you saw it too?" Jiang Muwan swallowed.

"Shhh."

The weak scholar narrowed his eyes and flew lightly to Ling Xuan's shoulder, "Life is like a play, we met because of fate..."

"hiss--"

A four-clawed snake crawled out from Ling Xuan's chest and bit Dragonfly's head, and the words that Dragonfly Scholar was about to say came to an abrupt end.

Ling Xuan tapped its little head and said, "It's unhygienic. I'm going to spit it out."

The journey was smooth, and the four followed Tiezhu to the cabin to rest.

"Madam, hurry up and get up to receive the guests!"

The frail woman in the room held onto the door handle and trembled, "Someone's coming again."

She responded by hobbling to the kitchen.

The woman slowly scooped water from the rice jar and sighed.
