Reclaiming Wasteland and Farming: My Haunted Fields Are Spawning Monsters Infinitely

Led by Li Qingshan, Adie arrived at the riverbank.

The river sobbed, its flow ceaseless.

Ah Die stood on the riverbank, lowered her head, and her hair grew rapidly, slowly drooping into the river water.

Her body swelled at a visible rate, getting fatter and fatter, like a transparent water balloon, with even the lines on her skin visible, as if it would crack at the slightest touch.

Only then did she raise her head and slowly move towards the direction of the evil field.

Once in the field, she started spraying water from her hair, and streams of cool water fell into the field.

The long-parched farmland greedily absorbs water, accumulating nutrients for the coming year.

Seeing this, Li Qingshan nodded in satisfaction, feeling that he had found the right way to deal with the water ghost.

Previously, the zombies were too slow at carrying water. With the current efficiency, they can irrigate their entire farmland in just one night.

He tossed the copper coin to the water ghost Ah Die, and then went back to his room to sleep.

Before they knew it, it was dawn the next day.

The yellow gourd lay quietly on the table, its mouth open. Li Qingshan put it back in place and stepped out of the house.

What came into view was a patch of wet, black earth, completely soaked.

The water ghost worked all night, irrigating the entire fifty acres of land.

This work efficiency is too high.

Li Qingshan couldn't wait any longer, looking forward to the arrival of next spring, and pondering what to plant in the ground.

At this moment, large trucks loaded with logs came down the slope.

The convoys from the Qi, Meng, and Tian families delivering timber arrived.

Li Qingshan directed them to unload the wood and pile it up next to the shack, which quickly formed a small mountain.

Li Qingshan's plan is to fence off the entire Big Locust Tree Slope. This is only the first batch of timber; there will be several more batches to come.

……

Qingniu Pass, Li's Goods Storehouse.

When Qiu Niang arrived at the reception room, she subconsciously felt a little nervous.

But she quickly calmed down, a composed smile on her face, and stepped across the threshold.

Inside the hall, representatives from the Qi, Meng, and Tian families all stood up at the same time.

Qiu Niang was somewhat flattered and quickly said, "Please, everyone, there's no need for that. Please, have a seat."

"We dare not sit here. We have come here to ask Qiu Niang for a favor. Please save us quickly," said Manager Fang.

"Manager Fang, you flatter me. Is there anything I can do for you?"

The representatives from the Tian, ​​Meng, and Qi families exchanged glances, and finally, Manager Fang spoke up: "May I ask, madam, is Li Qingshan, who reclaimed the land on Big Locust Tree Slope, a member of your Li family?"

"..." Qiu Niang took a sip of tea. She had heard some of the news on the street. Judging from the aggressive manner of the three families, they must have come to demand an explanation.

"It's not that simple. That happened a long time ago. Since the family split up, he's no longer considered a member of the Li family. Everything he does is his own business, and he has nothing to do with the Li family anymore."

"So that's how it is. We thought..." Manager Fang sighed.

"Could it be that he offended you?" Qiu Niang asked.

"It's not that he offended us, but that we offended him."

"Hmm?" A hint of surprise flashed in Qiu Niang's beautiful eyes.

"Actually, we came here this time to ask the proprietress to mediate between us. If the proprietress agrees, the three of us are willing to each give up a portion of the business, which will then be managed by the Li family."

Qiu Niang's eyes widened suddenly. The Li family's business in the north was not large; they were just picking up scraps that others didn't want.

If the three families were willing to give up some of their business, it would be like a windfall for the Li family.

"Unfortunately, you have no say in this matter now..."

"Manager Fang, you are mistaken," Qiu Niang interrupted with a smile. "As the saying goes, you can't write two 'Li' characters with one stroke, and even if you break bones, the tendons are still connected. Besides, since you've asked, I'm willing to give it a try, whether I can do it or not."

……

Big locust tree slope.

When Qiu Niang arrived on her donkey, she saw Li Qingshan planting wood in the ground.

Seeing this, Qiu Niang was somewhat enlightened.

It was I who brought Li Qingshan here. Back then, there was only an old locust tree and three dilapidated houses. I thought Li Qingshan wouldn't even survive three days, but who would have thought that in just half a year, he would build such a large business on his own, and even a powerful figure like Meng Qitian would have to bow down to him.

How did he manage to do that?

At that moment, noticing that Li Qingshan had discovered her, she immediately dismounted from the donkey, tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, and forced a charming smile: "Greetings, young master."

Offering unsolicited favors is either a sign of malice or theft.

Li Qingshan, his face dark, asked, "What do you want?"

"It's nothing much, just a letter from the old master. After hearing about what the young master did in the north, he praised him three times, saying he truly deserves the Li family bloodline. He also sent me to check on young master Li, to see if there's anything I can help him with?"

"Let's get down to business." Li Qingshan planted a log into the ground.

Qiu Niang was silent for a moment, then said, "Actually, it was the Tian family, the Meng family, and the Qi family who asked me to mediate. They want young master Li to draw up a line, and they are willing to agree to any conditions, as long as they hope this matter ends here."

"I already guessed they were going to take some action recently, but I didn't expect them to ask you to come."

"Young Master Li, let me give you some advice: they are ruthless and heartless. Since you've already gained an advantage, you should know when to stop. Once they turn the tables, they'll definitely come back for more."

"I'll quit while I'm ahead, and they'll let me go," Li Qingshan said calmly. "Now that you're here, I don't need to hide anything. I've heard that the Tian family has a ferocious beast, and I want ten pounds of its blood."

Qiu Niang's eyes widened suddenly: "What do you need the blood of a ferocious beast for?"

"I have my own uses. Just pass on the message. Whether they agree or not is their business."

……

Tianjia Goods Storehouse.

When Manager Fang brought the news back, Tian Wuwang remained silent for a long time before finally saying slowly, "So they came for my family's guardian beast."

"Young master, this matter cannot be kept from the old master. If the old master finds out..."

Tian Wuwang did not tell the old master of the Tian family about using high-quality tobacco to win over Eunuch Bai.

However, it's no longer possible to hide it.

"Of course I know what you're saying, but do we even have a choice now?"

……

The Tian family.

The inner quarters.

This is a forbidden area for the Tian family, and strangers are not allowed to approach it. The gate is only opened during the annual ancestral worship ceremony, when people come here to offer sacrifices.

Tian Wuwang arrived at this place alone, carrying a silver basin in his hand.

He opened the door and went inside. The courtyard was empty, without a single person in sight, except for a few clean human bones in a corner.

Tian Wuwang placed the silver basin on the ground and prayed softly. Gradually, he sensed something approaching. The powerful pressure made it impossible for him to lift his head.

"Ancestors above, your descendants are unfilial. Now, I borrow ten catties of your blood, and I will surely repay you handsomely."

Drops of bright red blood fell into the basin, and Tian Wuwang was so nervous that he didn't even dare to lift his head.

Not long after he left, Manager Fang bought ten disaster victims from the market, cleaned them up, and secretly sent them here.

That night, the doors were tightly shut, and screams continued throughout the night.
