The second brother, Li Yanchuan, was shirtless. He encouraged everyone and kept repeating, "Come on, work hard, and work hard..."

The brothers closest to him looked at each other and smiled helplessly when they saw this.

Even though they felt their ears would get calluses if they kept listening, they did not dislike it and occasionally even shouted a few words along.

This is a habit developed by the craftsmen in the town while working. Working with them, Li Yanchuan also developed this self-encouraging hobby.

Li Laoer's words seemed to be very effective, like a shot of chicken blood, making everyone full of enthusiasm.

Leaning on the three-toothed stick he was using to dig the foundation, Mr. Li looked up, placed his mud-covered hands across his forehead, and squinted at the cloudless sky.

"Hey, Brother Li, the weather is so dry, the crops can only last a few days at most. If it doesn't rain, I'm afraid they will fail."

Lin Yongzhong glanced at the village and sighed to Mr. Li.

"Yeah, it's been going on for quite some time."

Farmers who depend on the weather for their livelihood have no way to deal with extreme weather.

Calculating the time in his mind, Mr. Li turned around and said something to everyone.

"Thank you for your hard work. It will be noon soon and the sun will be very hot. Everyone should go back and rest soon."

As if they knew he would say that, Miao Guang and Niu Mu nodded with a smile.

Everyone who was working paused. They did not expect the host to say that, and their eyes were filled with surprise.

Especially the team leader, Carpenter Yang, he looked back at the other people who were equally incredulous, thinking he had heard it wrong.

You know, they usually meet many hosts who ask people for help, and most of them hope that the helpers will work hard.

Some people wish that the workers would eat less and sleep less, and some wealthy families even don't treat people as human beings at all.

And since Mr. Li considered them, they were grateful, so how could they not try their best?

Seeing what Mr. Li said, Carpenter Yang and the other guys looked at each other, smiled and raised their heads and shouted:

"Okay, let's listen to the old man and work harder."

"Understood, get to work."

According to the construction plan for the second courtyard, the other carpenters and stonemasons led everyone back and continued to work on the task at hand.

Some were digging the foundation, some were mowing the weeds, and the sounds of shoveling earth, cheering, and chatting echoed in the open ground.

The music woven by labor, mixed with the sounds of summer cicadas, spread through the heat and could be heard from far away.

At the same time, in the southernmost direction of the mountains behind the wiping butt, countless mosquitoes were hissing and howling in the woods.

"Woo..."

The sound was like the saddest trumpet, echoing between heaven and earth.

And where the sound came from, countless black mists appeared out of thin air.

It rises slowly from the mountains and eventually converges into a black river, continuously flowing towards a certain direction of the mountains.

The mountain forest was shrouded in black fog, and it seemed as if countless skeletons were crying in the sky, trying to escape from the black fog, struggling frantically, and roaring in a twisted manner.

Eventually, the black fog calmed down and floated above the mountains and forests, going from being a turbulent flow with no direction to flowing out of the mountains in a unified manner.

From afar, dark clouds spread over the mountains and forests, as if a storm was about to come.

The birds and beasts startled from the mountains and forests ran around wildly and it took a long time for them to stop.

They looked in horror at the black bugs that were four or five times larger than ordinary ants, slowly crawling out of the valley filled with black fog.

Their pupils shrank sharply, and they followed the creature that suddenly appeared, all looking towards the direction of the village where humans lived.

"Swish, rustle."

Countless reptiles, rats and ants, with countless hairy legs, crawled rapidly on the ground covered with rotten leaves and branches.

The direction we were heading towards was the village at the foot of the mountain, and the grass and trees withered wherever we passed.

"Rumble..."

Thunder exploded in the mountain range shrouded in dark clouds.

There was a bolt of thunder from the blue, and the sudden roar of countless thunder frightened the people living under the mountains.

The deafening thunder lasted for barely a quarter of an hour.

Whether they were eating, working, sleeping, or talking or arguing, they all stood up and looked up at the sky.

"Oh my god, that direction..."

Standing on the hillside, Lin Lan looked at Shangxing Village at the foot of the mountain with a smile in her eyes.

After entering the forest, Xia Qingyu and Lin Lan chatted as they headed towards their destination.

As the two were talking, countless thunders suddenly rang in their ears.

[Quickly…quickly…collect…it’s…too…late…!!!]

The sudden voice in her mind, like the sudden roar of thunder, exploded in Xia Qingyu's ears, catching her off guard and making her dizzy.

Everything went dark before his eyes and Xia Qingyu staggered.

She hurriedly leaned towards the nearest big tree and felt a warm current passing in front of her eyes. Xia Qingyu didn't have time to wipe it off and fell to the ground with a plop.

She couldn't even stand steadily, and Xia Qingyu frowned slightly.

Her eyes were shaking and she felt as if the whole world was spinning.

Xia Qingyu sat on the ground, closed her eyes tightly, and adjusted her breathing.

Her steps suddenly stopped, and Lin Lan didn't see it. The moment she took a step, she almost knocked Xia Qingyu to the ground.

Thinking that Xia Qingyu was afraid of thunder, Lin Lan didn't think much about it and hugged Xia Qingyu tightly from behind.

Thunder rumbled across the sky. Lin Lan's heartbeat quickened as she heard it. While hugging Xia Qingyu, she whispered:

"Qingyu, don't be afraid, the thunder is nothing serious."

Hearing Lin Lan's soothing voice in his ears, Xia Qingyu wanted to reply to her that she was not afraid.

But she was conscious, but couldn't make a sound.

After trying several times, Xia Qingyu gave up.

Concentrate on adjusting your supernatural powers and repairing your uncomfortable body.

After holding Xia Qingyu and comforting her for a while, Lin Lan suddenly felt her arm wet and hot. She saw a lot of blood on the back of her hand and was stunned for several seconds.

That was not her blood, and her hands were not injured. Thinking of something, Lin Lan turned her head suddenly.

As soon as she caught a glimpse of Xia Qingyu's face, Lin Lan suddenly screamed and reached out to touch Xia Qingyu.

"Qingyu?!"

"Qingyu! What's wrong with you? Don't scare Lanlan."

"Qingyu? Qingyu?!"

……

"Lanlan, I'm here."

When Lin Lan was about to go crazy, Xia Qingyu was finally able to speak and opened her eyes instantly.

"Qingyu! Woo, what's wrong with you?"

Letting go of her hand, Lin Lan looked at Xia Qingyu, whose tears were bleeding, and couldn't help crying out loud.

Xia Qingyu stopped Lin Lan who was rushing towards him and held her firmly with his arms.

Even though her eyes were red and she couldn't see clearly, she could see with her consciousness that Lin Lan almost hit the tree stump.

"Lanlan, I'm fine."

As if knowing that he looked a little abnormal, Xia Qingyu began to comfort Lin Lan.

"Qingyu, what's wrong with you?" Lin Lan trembled all over and reached out to touch Xia Qingyu's face.

She saw that Xia Qingyu's face was pale, with scarlet blood flowing from his eyes and nose, and even his ears were bleeding.

At this moment, Lin Lan was so frightened that she couldn't even speak clearly.

"Qing... Qingyu, blood... you are bleeding, your eyes... your nose is bleeding..."
