The abandoned cannon fodder girl's path to immortality

Chapter 216 The Arrival of the Demonic Cultivator
Two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

The famine in the mortal realm did not lessen but worsened, and the government increased taxes, causing immense suffering to the people.

Qingquan Village, which was less affected by the famine, is now also experiencing food shortages, and many families are seeing their food supplies dwindle.

The land was parched and hardly anything could grow, and nearly half of the harvested rice was used to pay taxes.

Fortunately, with the expert Sixth Senior Brother Wen Yushu around, even the parched paddy fields produced more rice than other paddy fields, resulting in fewer people dying of hunger in Qingquan Village.

However, the inherent conditions were still too poor, and Wen Shuyu could not restore the crops to their original yield; he could only try to increase it as much as possible.

As the weather becomes increasingly dry, yields gradually decrease.

Behind Qingquan Village, Chen Jinshu was searching for suitable hybrid rice for his sixth senior brother, as wild rice is often more drought-resistant.

However, while they are drought-resistant, their yield is reduced, so hybridization of the two might have a surprising effect.

However, she has been searching for three months and has not found a single grain of rice.

'call out! ’

"Master! Something just flew towards the village!" The Yinshan Sparrow was the first to notice what was flying in the sky.

Chen Jinshu naturally heard the sound and glanced at it. It was a red shooting star, and it was no surprise that the person's cultivation was close to the Foundation Establishment level.

Normally she would never pay attention to such cultivators, but this stream of light was flying towards the village, and if nothing unexpected happened, it was heading towards Qingquan Village.

Will Qingquan Village be persecuted?

She tried hard to recall her master's experiences in the mortal world, but it seemed that he had not experienced the destruction of the village. Instead, he was sold to a brothel by his father.

If she hadn't met a kind old woman who taught her to play the pipa, she probably wouldn't have been able to save herself.

Could it be that their appearance affected Master's tribulation, thus causing Heaven to send down another challenge?
Now that the impact of famine and drought has diminished, the possibility that Master was sold to the town by his father has also decreased.

With the master staying in the village, there would be more opportunities to slowly do ideological work.

I never expected such a troublesome thing to happen now.

Without saying a word, she immediately took out a piece of paper and quickly wrote on it.

"Quickly deliver the letter to our senior brothers!"

"Good host!"

Chen Jinshu hurriedly headed towards the village, hoping things weren't as bad as she imagined.

A moment later, as she walked out of the mountain and reached the end of the village, a strong smell of blood wafted over, making her feel a sense of foreboding.

"Oh no! Something terrible has happened!"

It is an ironclad rule in the cultivation world that cultivators cannot attack mortals at will, but this rule means nothing to these demonic and evil cultivators.

At most, they just carry more karmic burdens and karmic debts.

What worries her even more is whether her master, whose cultivation memories are now sealed, will be affected by this.

She hadn't walked far when her heart grew heavier, seeing the corpses of villagers lying on the ground.

Some were headless, some had turned into mummies, and the ground was stained with blood.

She arrived at her fourth senior brother's residence first, only to find the room empty, with no trace of anyone having left behind.

"Judging by the time, my cultivation will be unsealed again in half a day!"

The last time the senior brother and others sealed their cultivation was for a year, and now another year has passed, but there is still half a day left.

She had originally planned to call her fellow disciples over today, but she hadn't expected to encounter such a thing.

She went to her third senior sister's house again, but there was no one there.

As soon as they reached the vicinity of the village exit, they saw a large number of villagers being blocked by a demonic cultivator dressed in a red Taoist robe.

"Haha! My luck is indeed good. I didn't expect there to be so many mortals still alive in this village. After visiting several villages, I only found a few people who were about to starve to death. What bad luck!" "Please, Immortal Master, spare us!" the village chief pleaded, trying to save a few villagers.

"Dream on! We finally found a village with a lot of people."

As the demonic cultivator spoke, he casually grabbed a woman in front of him.

"Ah! Let me go!"

Before the woman could utter a few cries, the demonic cultivator drained her of her flesh and blood in front of everyone.

After absorbing the essence of a person, the demonic cultivator gradually revealed a happy and satisfied smile on his face.

The sixty or seventy villagers in front of him were terrified.

"Don't worry, you're next!" The demonic cultivator grinned savagely, grabbing five people in a row. His outstretched hand transformed into five thin threads that plunged into the heads of the five people, drawing out large amounts of scarlet blood.

The demonic cultivator's aura gradually grew stronger.

"Damn it! I don't even know if my senior brothers can make it in time!" Chen Jinshu was furious at the sight before her, but she was unable to use her spiritual power and could not help at all. She could only watch as the villagers died at the hands of the demonic cultivators.

They thought that by restricting their cultivation and turning them into mortals, the village could easily carry out their plans. However, they did not expect that they would still create a major karmic connection. If they were not removed in time, it would have a significant impact on them in the future.

The master, who had transformed into Liu Huameng, was being tightly protected in the very center of the crowd. At the front were women and the elderly, followed by young adults, and in the center were toddlers and children.

The villagers are willing to risk their lives to save these children.

Chen Jinshu sensed the duration of the restrictive spell in his dantian; there were still two hours left!

"The daylilies have gone cold in two hours!"

"what--"

"what--"

The shouts from ahead gradually increased. The demonic cultivator had absorbed more than ten young men in a row, and the shrill screams rose and fell, which were quite terrifying to hear.

'call out! ’

Just then, a giant golden sword attacked the demonic cultivator, leaving a trail of golden light in its wake.

"Die, demonic cultivator!" Senior Brother Zheng Shaosi unleashed his full power with his spirit sword, attacking the demonic cultivator without holding back.

The moment Zheng Shaosi released his golden core divine sense, the demonic cultivator was rendered immobile and was directly cut in two.

His eyes were still wide open when he died; he didn't have time to close them.

When the villagers of Qingquan Village saw the demonic cultivator being killed, their initial fear and apprehension turned into bitter tears.

About twenty people have already died ahead, including their wives and sons...

"The sorcerer has been slain! The dead are gone! Please accept our condolences!"

After Zheng Shaosi finished speaking, he glanced at Liu Huameng, who looked somewhat timid in the center of the crowd, and then sent a telepathic message to Huai Jingyi and the others before disappearing.

Chen Jinshu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the demonic cultivator being killed.

The appearance of demonic cultivators in Qingquan Village is undoubtedly related to them; they shouldn't interfere in mortal affairs.

Looking back now, I feel deep regret.

That night, the two senior brothers sealed their cultivation again.

"You've interfered too much in Qingquan Village. Opening a school and developing new rice varieties are indeed good, but excessive interference will affect your own karma! Famine is inevitable. You must not interfere any further!"

“It’s my fault! I shouldn’t have researched the new rice, which made our village different from other villages!” Wen Yushu said, revealing his remorse.

He only intervened because he saw the villagers were starving, but he never expected it to cause such a disaster.

"It's also my fault for getting too absorbed in the role-playing..."

"It's my fault too..."
