"What's going on?" Li Qingshan asked, puzzled.

"The most valuable part of this black bear is its pelt, but now you've chopped it up, so the price has to be halved. Also, you didn't bleed the bear properly after it died, so the blood seeped into the flesh and it won't taste good."

"Tsk..." Li Qingshan also said with some regret, "How would I know? I'm not a professional."

"You can't possibly hunt a black bear if you're not a professional," Zhou Ergou said. "Many good hunters never catch a bear in their entire lives."

Finally, he said, "Anyway, this black bear is still quite valuable, it's just not in perfect condition. I'll go find a few people to share the ride with."

"No need for that."

Li Qingshan told him to back the cart at the door, then grabbed it with both hands, lifted it up with a sudden burst of strength, and threw it onto the cart.

"what!"

Tuesday Dog's mouth gaped open for a long time before he finally said, "Now I know how you managed to hunt a black bear. You're even more of a bear than a bear!"

"Hmm..." Li Qingshan felt that this didn't seem like a compliment.

"Alright, what do you want to change to this time?"

Li Qingshan said, "Help me exchange some ironware. If you have an iron spear, help me exchange it for one. Also, buy two large vats, some clean clothes, and exchange the rest for hard currency."

"If we're talking about hard currency, it's definitely salt, grain, and gold and silver. But these days, even if you have money, you can't spend it. If you keep too much stuff at home, it's bound to attract unwanted attention. There are money shops in the city; why not exchange it for banknotes and deposit it?"

Li Qingshan thought for a moment and said, "Let's switch to grain instead."

Zhou Ergou felt that the North was not peaceful, but Li Qingshan didn't even trust the money shops.

It's safer to keep it in my own hands.

Li Qingshan loaded the game he had hunted last time onto the cart. Zhou Ergou tied the cart down and said, "I'm taking the stuff. Do you need me to leave some as collateral?"

"What do you have?" Li Qingshan asked.

"Well……"

"I'll trust you this once. If you don't trust me this time, I won't trust you next time."

"Don't worry, I can't bear to part with you, my lucky charm. I wouldn't be able to afford a mule cart without you."

Li Qingshan then remembered something else and said, "Oh, right, I have another treasure. Do you think we could exchange it for grain?"

"What treasure?"

Li Qingshan pulled a large radish from the rotten field and said, "What do you think of this radish? Isn't it big?"

"It is quite big, but it's far from being a treasure."

"You don't know this, but my red-core radish has a wonderful use..." Li Qingshan murmured a few words.

"I'll take it back and try it out first." Judging from Zhou Ergou's expression, he was still skeptical.

Li Qingshan pulled the radishes from the field, put them in a burlap sack, and loaded them onto the car.

After the dog left on Tuesday, Li Qingshan picked up a hoe and walked around the house.

At this point, the corpses in the Haunted Field had been almost completely digested, and it would still take a few more days for the Haunted Field to be fully upgraded.

The grass-cutting duo was still busy in the wilderness; they were almost nowhere to be seen.

Li Qingshan was helpless against them.

He thought about it and decided to go hunting anyway.

Now, in the transition from summer to autumn, it is the time when wild animals are at their fattest.

He set off with his toolbox, and shortly after he left, a figure appeared near the field.

This was none other than Wang Dahu from the Wang family.

Because he was worried that Li Qingshan might return at any time, he did not touch the grain stored in the earthen house, but went straight to Wang Dabao and Wang Dagou, who were cutting grass and hoeing the ground.

"The Great Leopard".

"Big dog!"

Wang Dahu excitedly said, "Come with me."

rustle.

The two men did not respond to him, remaining focused on their hoes and sickles, as if Wang Dahu lived in another dimension.

"you……"

Wang Dahu realized that his two brothers were possessed by evil spirits.

He looked up in the direction Li Qingshan had left, his eyes blazing with anger.

The Wang family was also a poor family inside the pass, and they were driven to the outside of the pass because they could not fill their stomachs.

The others were all families, with two or three men.

The Wang family, spanning two generations, had seven or eight male members, which immediately made them the most powerful force in the village, and everyone else had to respect them.

However, Chuanwu is now dead, Chuanwen has been traumatized and is now disabled, and Wang Dabao and Wang Dagou are also possessed by evil spirits.

The Wang family is finished.

And all of this was caused by Li Qingshan.

I swear I will not rest until I avenge this humiliation.

To be honest, he was indeed somewhat afraid of Li Qingshan.

However, he was not without options.

Last night, he witnessed the entire process of Li Qingshan killing and disposing of the body.

"Brothers, you wait here." Wang Dalong glanced at his two brothers, who were stunned into silence. "I will avenge you and make sure that Li fellow is reduced to ashes!"

Li Qingshan went a little further and used the same trick again, hunting down a leopard and a wild boar.

Learning from his previous experience, Li Qingshan immediately bled his prey after catching it to prevent the meat from turning sour and smelly.

Moreover, when he hunted, he deliberately kept the animal hides intact, tying the machete to a wooden stick and inserting it into the animal's anus, without damaging the animal's fur in the slightest.

He returned to the front of the earthen house and hung the wild animals up to slowly detoxify.

I cooked some meat, mixed with salt and radish.

Wang Dabao and Wang Dagou were drawn by the aroma of meat. They stood not far from the house, their eyes glazed over, acting only on instinct.

Li Qingshan served them some meat soup, and the two of them actually ate it.

Well, at least I have someone to keep me company.

Suddenly, Li Qingshan was moved and looked towards the locust tree in the distance.

The mourning ghost reappeared, squatting under the locust tree, baring its teeth at Li Qingshan.

Li Qingshan: "..."

The duo, who were eating meat from their bowls, silently stood up, walked towards the mourning ghost, and knelt down beside it without a sound.

Watching this scene, Li Qingshan pondered that although the duo had lost consciousness, their instincts still obeyed the mourning ghost.

In the stillness of the night, Li Qingshan lay in the earthen house. The earthen bed had been heated for two days, and there was little dampness left in the house.

Li Qingshan was asleep when he vaguely heard a whistling sound outside.

He put on his clothes, got out of bed, and went out of the house. He saw that a fire had been lit under the locust tree again.

The mourning ghost took out a handful of paper money from its bosom and threw it into the fire, calling out Li Qingshan's name amidst its sobbing cries:

"Li Qingshan..."

Oh no, here we go again!

Li Qingshan put his hand to his forehead, took out a copper coin from his pocket, and waved it in front of the mourning ghost.

The mourning ghost's cries abruptly ceased.

Well, he's still just a money-grubbing devil.

Li Qingshan threw the copper coin out, and the mourning ghost immediately caught it, stopped crying, and squatted under the locust tree, laughing at Li Qingshan.

Li Qingshan scratched his head, wondering how he had gotten himself into trouble with this thing. It was trying to extort money from him.

He thought for a moment, then boldly took a few steps forward.

The closer they got, the more clearly they could see that the mourning ghost's face was covered in white hair and was not human at all.

Li Qingshan pointed to the duo next to the mourning ghost and said, "If they took my money, they have to work for me. Do you understand?"

Squeak.

Li Qingshan pulled another copper coin from his pocket, shook it, and tossed it to the mourning ghost.

The duo behind the mourning ghost suddenly stood up and disappeared into the field.

"Well……"

Li Qingshan was speechless again, feeling that he had roughly figured out the mechanism of the mourning ghost.

He's a money-grubber.

"You, make them go weed for me."
