Reclaiming Wasteland and Farming: My Haunted Fields Are Spawning Monsters Infinitely
Chapter 75 A Bloodbath Caused by a Tobacco Field
In the darkness of night.
Manager Fang and his men guarded the area below the locust tree slope. The night was silent, with only occasional glances from people looking up at the slope.
"Shopkeeper, do you think he might destroy the tobacco fields in the middle of the night?" Liu Shan asked.
"Farmers value their crops the most, and they won't take this step unless absolutely necessary."
"Let me take a few men and sneak up there, tie that kid up!" A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Liu Shan's eyes.
Shopkeeper Fang pondered for a moment and said, "That might be a good idea. You take a few quick-handed people and test his skills. If it doesn't work, retreat immediately."
"yes!"
Liu Shan raised his head and pointed to several of his most capable subordinates: "Black Dog, Erpi, you guys come with me."
There were seven people in total, carrying short knives, iron bars, and other items. Liu Shan also had a bundle of hemp rope tied to his belt.
Instead of taking the main road, the group went around to the back of the earthen house, intending to capture Li Qingshan inside.
The night was dark, with only the wind howling overhead. The group crouched low, and by the dim moonlight, they could vaguely make out the shape of the earthen house.
"Erpi, you go that way. Black Dog, you come with me from this side," Liu Shan instructed.
The group split into two. After walking only a few steps, Erpi suddenly squatted down and let out a shrill scream.
"What's all the noise about? Aren't you afraid of being discovered?!" Liu Shan ran back and scolded him with a dark face.
"Snake! There's a snake!" Erpi squatted on the ground, wincing in pain. "A snake bit me."
Liu Shan looked down, but he couldn't see clearly in the darkness. He could only smell the stench of blood.
"It's normal to have snakes in this field. Why weren't you more careful?" Liu Shan scolded. The unfavorable start cast a shadow over his heart. "You go back first. I'll take the others up. Everyone be careful!"
Liu Shan led the rest of the group onward, proceeding cautiously. Fortunately, they encountered no more snakes along the way and quietly approached the earthen house.
Ah!
Suddenly, another scream rang out from behind, startling everyone.
"It's Erpi's voice!"
"What's wrong with him!"
"Something's not right with that sound."
Just then, a figure swayed and stood up from beside the haystack. His face was ashen, and blood was even seeping from it. He said in a leisurely voice, "You should go back first."
"what!"
The crowd was completely demoralized, turned around, and fled without a care in the world.
Liu Shan faintly heard crying, and in the crying someone was calling his name. It seemed to be his mother, or it seemed to be his first lover.
He kept running forward with his head down, then suddenly stopped, feeling a sticky sensation on the soles of his shoes.
He smelled the pungent odor of blood, looked down, and suddenly saw a piece of cloth.
This is Erpi's clothes.
Erpi has completely disappeared.
Ah!
Manager Fang heard the screams from the slope but didn't know what had happened. Just then, Liu Shan ran over, covered in sweat, his eyes wide with fear.
"Shopkeeper, there's a ghost up there... a ghost!"
"What the hell? Explain yourself clearly. Where are the others?"
In the end, only three of the seven returned, and those who did couldn't explain what they had encountered. Some said they met a crying white-haired demon, while others said they met a man-eating black pig.
They looked as if they had lost their souls, and when they looked at the locust tree slope again, they were filled with fear.
This made Manager Fang realize that the young people on the slope were not as simple as they seemed.
I must report this news to the young master as soon as possible.
……
Jiangnan Tower.
Manager Fang stood outside the bed curtains, head bowed, and recounted what had happened the previous night.
After a while, a plump white arm stretched out from under the bed curtains. Tian Wuwang, wearing clothes, walked out from inside. Through the gap in the bed curtains, one could see the naked back of a woman.
"So, that kid does have some skill after all."
Manager Fang said, "It is indeed a bit strange. I think we should reconsider this matter."
"Let's think this through... Eunuch Bai is pressing us hard, this matter can't be delayed," Tian Wuwang said. "If we can't even handle this small matter properly, Eunuch Bai will look down on us."
"What does the young master mean?"
"Please ask the few experts you keep at home to come and break that kid's evil tricks."
"Yes……"
Just then, Liu Shan ran over from outside, stood outside the door, and glanced in this direction.
"What happened?" Manager Fang asked.
"That kid wants to talk to us," Liu Shan said.
Manager Fang frowned and said, "Prepare the carriage, I'll be right there."
Liu Shan shook his head: "He wants to talk to the master in person?"
Shopkeeper Fang was taken aback, looking at Tian Wuwang, who was still sitting on the bed with his bare legs.
"Talk to me?" Tian Wuwang shook his head helplessly: "This young man is ignorant and arrogant. What right does he have to talk to me?"
Shopkeeper Fang, dressed in a blue cloth robe, arrived at the foot of Huai Shu Slope in a horse-drawn carriage.
Li Qingshan, holding a gun, stood in front of the locust tree slope.
Manager Fang, carrying his robe, jogged over, wiping the sweat from his face. "I'm late, I'm late. Something came up and I was delayed."
Li Qingshan said, "You are not the person I want to see."
Shopkeeper Fang said, "My master has many things to do. This tobacco field is just a trivial matter to him."
"So, he won't come to talk to me?"
Manager Fang spread his hands: "I can make all the decisions here."
Li Qingshan frowned, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I can hand over this tobacco field to you. But... you'll have to pay extra."
Manager Fang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's good that we can talk. Why make things too tense? From now on, you'll be growing tobacco for the Tian family. Once you've got this connection, do you think the Tian family will treat you badly?"
"If you hadn't rushed over, things wouldn't have escalated to this point." Li Qingshan put down the iron spear in his hand.
"Young people should have a long-term vision and not focus on short-term gains," Manager Fang said. "How much more silver do you want to add?"
"This time, I don't want money, I want iron," Li Qingshan said. "I want a cartload of iron delivered to the foot of Huai Shu Slope."
"This..." Manager Fang hesitated.
"Can't you make the decision? If you can't, then go and find someone who can."
Manager Fang's eyes darted around. A cartload of iron was no small amount, but compared to fifty acres of tobacco fields, it was nothing.
It's better to agree first and then report to the master later.
"Okay, I can promise you, I'll send the iron over as soon as possible."
"When you deliver the iron materials, I will have harvested the tobacco and handed it over to you."
Li Qingshan paused for a moment, then said, "Before that, I think you should stay away from this field."
Recalling what happened last night, Manager Fang's heart skipped a beat, while Liu Shan's face changed color.
