As the Universe Turns - Chapter 1215
Chapter 1215 But Mortal
“Zhao … Zhao Dahu, you, what are you doing …”
The villagers were so frightened that they kept retreating, but Zhao Dahu was arrogant and walked into the village step by step, “Get lost! Get out of the way!”
Everyone didn’t dare to stand in front of them and moved aside one after another, but seeing that Zhao Dahu was heading towards Liu’er’s house, everyone had a bad premonition.
When they arrived in front of the Liu Clan’s courtyard, they saw the door tightly shut. Zhao Dahu sneered and said, “Doctor Liu, someone Zhao has come to propose marriage personally today. Why? Are you just going to close the door and disappear?”
The villagers didn’t dare to say anything. After a long time, they saw the door open. Doctor Liu walked out from inside and looked at Zhao Dahu. “Go, I won’t marry Jingjing to you.”
“You, say, what …”
Zhao Dahu’s gaze turned extremely fierce. The two men beside him immediately walked up and pressed down on Doctor Liu’s shoulders. The villagers outside were so scared that their bodies trembled, “Zhao Dahu, what are you going to do? If you have something to say, say it properly and let Doctor Liu go …”
“You two bastards! This is my father-in-law, don’t retreat!” Zhao Dahu shouted coldly, and the two strong men immediately let go of Doctor Liu, lowered their heads and retreated back.
Zhao Dahu walked forward and looked at Doctor Liu with a sneer, “The subordinates are ignorant. They just scared Yue Zhang. I didn’t hear what Yue Zhang said just now. Tell me again in my ear …”
The atmosphere became tense. The villagers were so scared that their faces turned pale. They all frowned at Doctor Liu and shook their heads. He wanted to say something else, but Zhao Dahu was going to make a move …
“I won’t marry you.”
At this moment, a cold female voice came from the courtyard. When they heard this voice, many people outside were stunned. Liu Jingjing walked out of the courtyard with a sharp pair of scissors in her hand. She put them on her throat and stared coldly at Zhao Dahu.
“Jingjing!”
Doctor Liu’s expression changed. Seeing this scene, the villagers outside were also shocked. They were worried that she had been depressed all day because of Ah Tian’s matter for more than a month. This time, Zhao Dahu came to force her to marry again. They were afraid that she would do something stupid on impulse. Everyone hurriedly said, “Liu’er! Don’t do anything stupid! Put down the scissors …”
“Jingjing! Put down the scissors …”
Doctor Liu’s face was also deathly pale. He knew how his daughter’s temperament was. If Zhao Dahu really wanted to forcefully marry her today, she would rather die than obey …
“Sister Liu’er …”
In the distance, Cai Wei was also frightened. Liu Jingjing’s face was cold as she walked out step by step. She stared coldly at Zhao Dahu and said word by word, “If you don’t stop pestering me, I, Liu Jingjing, will die here today. You can’t get away with it …”
The atmosphere became even more tense. However, Zhao Dahu did not panic at all. Even his smile had not changed until now. He only smiled faintly and said, “Miss Liu’er, are you sure you want to do this?”
“I’m sure …”
Liu Jingjing stared at Zhao Dahu with a cold and unyielding expression. However, Zhao Dahu smiled coldly and said to the back, “Take out the betrothal gift for Doctor Liu to see.”
“Yes …”
Two people immediately walked up from behind. The so-called betrothal gift was actually dozens of deeds. Zhao Dahu took a deed and placed it in front of Liu Jingjing. He sneered, “The deeds of everyone in the Ancient River Village are here. From now on, all the land in the village belongs to my Zhao Clan …”
“What, what’s the situation …”
The villagers were still unable to react. They were all ordinary farmers. Most of them did not have their own land. The land belonged to the landlord’s family.
As for the land in the Ancient River Village, it was all outside the King’s Mansion. Why did this deed end up in Zhao Dahu’s hands? Could it be that wang Yuwai had sold the land to the Zhao Clan?
Zhao Dahu sneered and said, “From next year onwards, every household will be required to collect an additional 30 stones of grain … Not even a single stone less.”
“What!”
Hearing this, the villagers were shocked. Wang Yuanwai only collected three stones of grain from them every year. This Zhao Dahu had raised it tenfold the moment he arrived. How could there be so much grain handed over? Doesn’t that mean starving people to death …
Liu Jingjing frowned, “Zhao Dahu, what do you want …”
Zhao Dahu smiled coldly, “Yes, Doctor Liu doesn’t usually rely on farming for a living. It doesn’t seem to have any effect on your Liu Clan. As for the others … Thirty-three stones of grain, not a single stone is missing.”
“Zhao Dahu! You bullied us too much. If you want to force us to death today, then my old man will not give up this life today and will fight with you!”
Suddenly, an old uncle with a hoe rushed over. However, before he could get close, one of his old uncles was kicked flying by a subordinate of Zhao Dahu.
“Uncle Liu! Uncle Liu, wake up! Uncle Liu! You … you, Zhao Dahu, you killed someone …”
“Haha, you all saw him. He rushed over just now to kill me. I was just defending myself …”
Zhao Dahu smiled coldly. He held the deed in his hand and walked closer to Liu Jingjing, “If Miss Liu’er dies here today, then add another ten stones. If Miss Liu’er puts down the scissors in her hand and marries to our Zhao Clan today, then from now on, it will still be three stones a year. Not a single one will be levied …”
The surroundings became quiet. Slowly, someone looked at Liu Jingjing and said, “Liu’er …”
“Haha …”
Zhao Dahu sneered, “Why? Miss Liu’er, do you still need to consider it? My patience is also limited …”
“Liu’er …”
More and more people looked at Liu Jingjing. Her body began to tremble slightly. The hand holding the scissors also began to tremble. Finally, with a “clang” sound, the scissors fell from her hand to the ground, and two rows of tears fell from her face.
“Haha!”
Zhao Dahu raised his head and smiled. He tossed the deed back and smiled with his hands behind his back, “If it had been like this, wouldn’t it have been enough? I, Zhao Dahu, have never been able to get anything I want! Haha …”
All the villagers lowered their heads, shaking their heads and sighing. They were born right now, so what could they do if they were oppressed …
Just as everyone was sighing, a white-clothed woman walked into the village. Everyone was stunned when they saw such a heavenly immortal-like woman enter the village. “Young lady is …”
“Who is Zhao Dahu?”
The woman in white walked in. She was none other than Bai Luan.
“Oh?”
Zhao Dahu looked at her and his eyes lit up. He smiled and said, “I am, what? Little lady, where did you come from? Tsk tsk tsk tsk, not bad, you delivered yourself to the door …”
Bai Luan looked at him and said indifferently, “Do you still have any unfulfilled wishes?”
“What?”
Zhao Dahu chuckled and felt that it was interesting. He slowly walked over to her and said, “Little Master has many wishes. First, he married Liu’er. Then, it’s good to marry you. What? You want to help me fulfill these wishes?”
Bai Luan shook her head, “No, I’m just curious if you mortals have any regrets before the end of your lives, that’s all.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he condensed his finger and a sword beam flew away. With a “chi” sound, blood splashed three feet. Zhao Dahu’s head disappeared. When everyone saw it, it had already landed in the snow, and they didn’t even have time to close their eyes.
“Ah! Killed … Killed!”
The villagers had never seen such a terrifying scene before, and they were so scared that they hid in the house. Doctor Liu reacted and carried Liu Jingjing into the courtyard.
As for Zhao Dahu’s subordinates, they were so scared that their faces turned pale. Their legs trembled, and they stood there without daring to move.
Bai Luan said indifferently, “Listen clearly. If anyone dares to disturb the villagers of this village again, no matter how great your officials are in this mortal world, or even your emperors in this mortal world, their fate will be the same as this person.”
“Yes, yes …”
The dozen or so men trembled in fear. This time, it was the villain who met the immortal …
“Bring this person’s corpse and leave.”
“Yes, yes” The dozen or so people immediately carried Zhao Dahu’s corpse and ran out of the village.
After a long time, Bai Luan said to the village, “Those people have already left. In the future, no one will dare to cause trouble in the village. You don’t have to be afraid. Come out.”
A moment later, someone slowly came out of the room. Recalling the scene just now, he still couldn’t believe that this person in front of him was also an immortal.
“Fairy, you, you are …”
Everyone couldn’t believe it. Just now, after drawing it like that, the bully’s head flew away. Was this, was this the method of an immortal …
Bai Luan looked inside and asked, “Who is Miss Liu’er?”
“I, I am …”
Liu Jingjing was still a little shocked. At this moment, he walked out of the courtyard and looked at Bai Luan. He muttered, “Did Ah Tian send you here? How is he now? He was captured by that Zi Yi man the other day …”
“Ah Tian” The villagers finally reacted. It was Ah Tian …
Bai Luan said, “Your Excellency is fine.” As he spoke, he walked over to her and handed her a knot of one heart, saying, “Your Excellency, let me return this to the girl.”
“Ah Tian …”
Liu Jingjing took over the knot. This was the night she personally knitted it. There were two of them. They were their trusted trusts.
At this moment, tears began to gather in her eyes. She raised her head and looked at the immortal-like woman in front of her. “Then, will he come back?”
Bai Luan took a deep breath and said, “Immortal Mortal is a different path. His Excellency has long abandoned the mortal world. I hope that Miss Liu’er can let you off the hook … Ah Tian has never left in your heart, but his Excellency has never left in the future … Do you understand?”
With that, Bai Luan smiled gently and nodded. Then, he turned around and walked out to a tree. Genuine energy’s palm condensed and pressed down on Uncle Liu’s chest. Not long after, Uncle Liu woke up, as if nothing had happened.
“This old uncle just fainted. He is fine now. Besides, I will set up a Spiritual Energy near the village to ensure that the village will have a good harvest for a hundred years.”
“Thank you, Fairy … thank you, Fairy!”
“Everyone, don’t send them off.” Bai Luan looked at the crowd, then tapped her feet and immediately turned into a ray of white light that pierced through the sky.
“He really is an immortal …”
Everyone stared at the disappearing white light in the sky in disbelief. On the Liu Clan’s side, Doctor Liu walked out of the courtyard and said, “Jingjing …”
“Daddy, I’m fine …”
Liu Jingjing held the knot in her hand and shook her head with a smile. Although there were still tears in her eyes, this was the first time in more than a month that a smile had appeared on her face. It was as if the sky had finally cleared up today.
…
Lustless Heaven, Mysterious Demon Cave.
Xiao Chen’s Spiritual Qi flowed through his body. The images of his past mortal world flashed past his heart like the past, but they had already left with the wind.
At this moment, spiritual light finally rushed out from his body. The moment he gave the order, a strange phenomenon appeared in the entire Lustless Heaven. The disciples outside were all shocked. They all looked towards the direction where the strange phenomenon had appeared. They saw spiritual light soaring into the sky from the Secret Devil Cliff. At this moment, everyone felt an extraordinary aura.
