I am a living immortal.

the other side.

There is a large lake on the easternmost side of Yuannan, called Xunyang Lake. This lake is very huge and runs through Yuannan and Huguan.

At the bottom of the lake, tens of meters deep.

There was an old turtle lying there, its huge shell covered with water plants and blending into the environment at the bottom of the lake. Suddenly, the old turtle seemed to feel something?

"Hmm? Why do I feel such a strong sense of malice?"

"Could it be that the truth has been revealed? That shouldn't be the case. Even if it was revealed, it couldn't have been revealed so quickly.

"I've been thinking about it for a long time but still can't figure it out. What's going on?"

This old turtle has lived for at least five or six hundred years.

It is considered a famous aquatic creature in Xunyang Lake. It is not because he is so powerful that he has not been able to transform after five or six hundred years of practice. He has just refined the horizontal bone. How powerful can he be? He is famous because he has lived a long time and outlived most of the powerful aquatic creatures.

The position of the Water God of Xunyang Lake has been vacant ever since the previous Water God caused trouble and was killed in the lake by a sword from an immortal master. This is also the reason for the decline of the Xunyang Lake lineage.

In that battle, everyone was liquidated.

When there is no tiger in the mountain, the monkey becomes king. This old turtle has outlasted at least two water gods.

With his low aptitude, his life span is about to reach its limit.

So the old turtle, who has been living in seclusion all his life, decided to give it a try and build a future for himself.

…………

Neither of them expected to encounter some strange things in the past two days.

But what can I say? All good things must come to an end.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Wei Ming still had to go to Yuannan City to set up a stall. Even if no one bought anything, he still had to set up the stall to save up some money for his trip.

Su Mu also had to go back. The tables, chairs and benches he had customized with the carpenter should be arriving soon. The old carpenter still had a balance to pay, so he didn't want to keep him waiting anxiously.

When they parted, Su Mu told Wei Ming the location of her courtyard and asked him to come over for some tea when he was free.

Wei Ming waved his hand to indicate that he would not be polite and would definitely bother her when he was free.

The two separated on the official road.

When Su Mu rode the sheep back to Qingyun Lane, the sun was already high in the sky and it was almost noon.

The sun was scorching the ground, making it sizzle.

There weren't many people strolling on the streets at the moment. Even the most idle few had found a shady place to stay, which was enough to show how hot the sun was at that moment.

Therefore, the old carpenter and his group were particularly conspicuous.

"Sorry, sorry! I was delayed by something. Please come in." Su Mu welcomed the person into the yard.

The old carpenter, dressed in a coarse linen shirt, directed his apprentice to move furniture from the cart into the house while wiping the sweat off his face with a wet towel around his neck. "It's okay, it's okay! We just got here too, and the sun is really scorching."

"It will get better after some time."

Su Mu used a bucket to draw some water from the well, boiled a pot of cold tea, and washed some fruits to entertain everyone.

The old carpenter saw his apprentice reaching out to take it, and he knew it was not cheap. He glared at him and said, "Young Master, you are welcome, but there is no rush. The most important thing is to take a look at these furniture and see if you are satisfied with them."

"I just saw it! Your craftsmanship is really amazing." Su Mu handed over the remaining balance. The old carpenter was not afraid that Su Mu would not pay, but was afraid that Su Mu would not be satisfied. After all, to be honest, as far as wooden furniture is concerned, this price is higher than the market price. What he bought was a craftsmanship.

He has seen many unpleasant things caused by nitpicking.

Seeing Su Mu's satisfaction, the old carpenter felt relieved and smiled as he picked up a piece of fruit: "Thank you for your hospitality!"

After placing the furniture in the designated location, the old carpenter said goodbye, and said politely, "You can come to me if you encounter any problems in the future."

Su Mu agreed repeatedly and walked her to the door.

He closed the gate and rubbed his face.

"This worldly politeness is really tiring. Killing zombies is easier. My face is almost frozen from smiling."

People are welcoming me with smiles, so it's not good to have a stern face. I waved my hand and a stream of cold well water floated up from the well. I washed my face and then admired my own little house.

These pieces of furniture are really meticulously crafted, and every detail is refined and perfected in the hands of the old carpenter. They are worthy of being made by a master. If this were put before the time travel, you might not be able to buy such craftsmanship even if you have money, let alone antiques.

Of course, he didn't know that the old carpenter's pursuit of excellence was forced by his customers.

This is just ordinary wood. For those slightly more expensive woods, you have to carefully consider every cut you make. If those wealthy families are even slightly dissatisfied, your year's work will be in vain.

Admiring the furniture and using Wei Ming's paintings as embellishments, I was delighted.

This is the cottage where I will live for some time.

Satisfied, Su Mu simply planted the seeds in the yard. With the nourishment of spiritual energy, these seeds did not require much care, just clearing the weeds regularly.

"Old goat, this solemn task is now entrusted to you."

"What~"

I had just finished the work in the yard and went to the kitchen to take a look. There were still some dry noodles left, which I had asked the owner to buy at the food store, and some vegetarian dishes.

It’s just the right time to make a bowl of noodles. I haven’t had time to eat a hot bowl of noodles in the past two days.

.........

At the same time, the captain of the police had returned to the Yuannan County Office and reported the intelligence to the county magistrate, telling him everything that had happened today.

"You mean that young man just scattered a handful of copper coins and solved the problem?"

"Yes!" the captain replied with gritted teeth, even though it might sound a bit far-fetched.

"Not necessarily. Maybe the young man scattered a handful of copper coins to scare away the evil creature. We haven't found any traces. I still think we should be on guard for a few days to prevent the evil creature from doing evil again." said the sorcerer who followed the captain.

This answer made the magistrate nod his head: "That makes sense."

This makes sense. It is really unbelievable that an evil creature that could slaughter hundreds of people in the village could be killed so easily.

The captain glanced at the sorcerer but did not argue.

Because he was actually a little unsure whether he was scared away or killed. Of course, although the sorcerer had selfish motives, his analysis was not wrong. After all, no trace was found between the two of them.

The village chief is now in a coma, and everyone else was just running and didn't pay attention.

Besides, the county magistrate obviously felt that the sorcerer's analysis was more credible. As a shrewd man, he certainly would not stand up and refute the county magistrate.

Seeing that the two of them stopped talking.

The county magistrate continued, "From now on, I'll have to trouble Master Zheng."

"No, no, this is what I should do. Don't worry, I will never let these evil creatures wreak havoc on the world again." The reason why Master Zheng dared to make such a promise was because, if an evil creature could scare away even a teenager, then what was there to be afraid of?

"Good, good, good!" The county magistrate laughed and said three good words in a row.
