The head of Hongsong Village.

Li Xianhui arranged people to cut down the branches of the willow tree according to Wan Zhuliu's instructions.

The old willow tree was originally an old stump with a few new branches growing on the side, but now they have all been chopped off.

The soldiers who came to cut down the trees knew the reason in advance. Although they were skeptical, they did not show any mercy.

Instead, the villagers who were unaware of the situation gathered in groups of three or five, holding hoes and axes, and gathered in front of the altar.

Hu Zi and his companions were particularly agitated. They knocked over a soldier with a hoe and cursed, "You beasts, you offended our Lord Liu Shen, you shall not die a good death!"

Hearing this, the soldiers knew they were in the wrong and did not resort to violence. Instead, they stepped forward to explain.

"Fellow villagers, cutting down willow branches was discussed between our General Li and the Willow God. It is also for the purpose of healing the wounded soldiers. Please do not stop us!"

"Chop off your mother's head. If you touch Willow God, you touch us. If anyone dares to move again today, we will kill him!"

Bang!

As a result, a man with rough words was kicked to the ground by a colonel who came up from behind as soon as he finished cursing.

"Did I give you face?"

The officer, a tall and burly man, looked sideways at the crowd, drew his sword from his waist, and said threateningly, "Red Pine has been captured by our Great Xia Army. We're lucky to have spared your lives. How dare you stop us?"

After saying that, he spat.

He sneered, "If you are tired of living, you can come up and try to see if the sword of the general is sharp enough!"

"Who's afraid of you? If you dare to touch Willow God, I'll fight you!"

Unexpectedly, Hu Zi was a young and naive man. He gritted his teeth, picked up the hoe and rushed forward.

Swish!

A cold light flashed, and the officer retracted the iron knife with a cold look in his eyes.

Hu Zi stumbled and fell to the ground, with a huge gash on his chest and bleeding profusely.

"Ah, Huzi, are you okay?"

"Fuck you, fight them!"

This immediately enraged the villagers and they all rushed forward.

Seeing this, the officer raised his hand and was about to attack again.

But I never expected that a huge force would come from my back.

Immediately afterwards——

Whoosh!

A strong gust of wind blew up, swept the officer into the air, and then threw him directly into the well.

Wan Zhuliu's body was firmly fixed on the willow stump, his eyes sweeping solemnly over the soldiers.

"Hongsong has been owned by the people of Hongsong since ancient times. When did it become the property of the Great Xia Army?

You raise the flag of the Great Xia army and regard the Great Xia as the orthodox dynasty. You should follow the example of the previous dynasty and love the people like your own children. How can you raise the butcher knife and swing it against the people?

After he appeared, Li Xianqi also arrived soon after. After learning the reason, he angrily scolded his soldiers on the spot and personally apologized to the villagers of Hongsong.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Wan Zhuliu lowered his body, picked up a willow branch, squeezed out the juice from it, and slowly applied it to the wound on Hu Zi's chest.

Then, he secretly practiced the rejuvenation technique.

Soon, Hu Zi's wound had scabbed over and granulation tissue surged, completely filling the gap.

Not only Li Xianqi but also the entire Great Xia army were shocked at this moment.

Although they had seen many Yin gods use magic, they had never seen the rejuvenation technique.

This is also the reason why Wan Zhuliu dared to use rejuvenation techniques to act.

According to the code, rejuvenation belongs to the wood attribute in the five elements, and it requires the sacrifice and refinement of the origin of wood to be accomplished.

As far as he knew, there had not yet been any god with the origin of wood in the old god system canonized by the previous dynasty.

The so-called origin of wood, to put it bluntly, is the spirit of the mountains and wilds. Its true form is a willow tree, which fits perfectly with the art of rejuvenation.

Or maybe it was because he was not picky about the panel that allowed him to learn the rejuvenation technique directly.

All in all, in the entire world of the living, perhaps he is the only one who understands this magic.

My thoughts raced, and I finally came to my senses.

He slowly helped Hu Zi up, "Does it still hurt? Hu Zi!"

Hu Zi was a little confused. He let out a hiss and touched his chest. A trace of relief at having survived the ordeal flashed across his face. "No...it doesn't hurt anymore. It's just itchy. Thank you, Grandpa Liushen!"

"Ok!"

Wan Zhuliu nodded, then looked at the villagers, "The Great Xia Army came to cut the willow branches with my permission. Thank you for your kindness, please leave!"

The villagers finally put down their hoes, but they still worriedly asked, "Will the Willow God be hurt? What will happen to us Red Pine if we lose the Willow God's protection in the future?"

"Don't worry, everyone. I, Li Xianming, promise you that I will never harm Willow God!"

Old Li immediately stood up and made a promise, patting his chest.

"You treacherous doctor, you've deceived us for years. Who would believe what you say?"

"I..." Old Li's expression changed. He was unable to refute what he had done.

Seeing this, Wan Zhuliu explained again, and then chopped off all the new buds on the willow tree in front of everyone's gaze.

"Collect this juice and apply it to the wound!"

His incense body gradually became ethereal, and after he finished his instructions vaguely, he disappeared.

At the same time, a faint voice sounded, "This god needs to repair his divine essence and will not appear within three days."

Then, his figure and breath completely disappeared.

During the night, a message spread throughout the baggage camp.

"The Willow God sacrificed himself to save others, but suffered severe injuries himself!"

Immediately afterwards, most of the wounded soldiers in the supply camp recovered overnight, and even the critically ill patients who were previously in danger of dying were greatly relieved.

The only problem that arises is that Willow God seems to have disappeared.

Even though Li Xianqi tried to contact him many times, he didn't get any response.

This news quickly spread in the camp, and the team of soldiers who went to cut willow branches immediately became the target of public criticism.

"It's all your fault. You didn't know how to be more conservative when you were chopping. If Willow God dies, who can resist the demons from Xuanqing Palace?"

"That's right, you selfish guys! The Willow God sacrificed his life for justice, and you're so rude! It's said that not even a branch was left. The willow tree is now just an old stump!"

The debate in the camp became more and more intense. Li Xianhui saw the situation and knew that things were not going well.

He hurriedly organized the entire camp of the Daxia army, brought incense and burning candles, and went to the village entrance together.

"Everyone, I have decided that from today onwards, we will come here every day to offer sacrifices to the Willow God. May the Willow God recover soon!"

"General Li is wise, this is what he deserves!"

“It should be so…”

As the incense sticks were lit, the rich light yellow power of the incense continuously seeped into the willow trees.

[Incense value +4]

[Incense value +3]

[Incense value +6]

……

It took half the morning to complete the sacrifice.

Wan Zhuliu remained attached to the willow tree and did not appear during the entire process.

As for the harvest, it can be said that it far exceeded his expectations.

"These days of acting have paid off, it's a full 3248 points, it's paid off!!!"

His eyes swept over the panel, where the incense value had reached over four thousand points.

This was enough for him to practice many spells, but he had already read through all the spells in the code and had learned almost all the spells that were useful to him.

There is no point in learning other auxiliary spells, they can only increase your mana.

Speaking of mana, he realized that his mana was still over 200. There was still a long way to go to reach 1,000.

"By the way, besides magic, can I learn some martial arts?"
