Reborn as a Cube Man in the Late Ming Dynasty

For the next few days, Bai Li spent almost all his time fishing by the pond, returning the fish to the water source at sunset, and collecting bone meal from the compost bins.

After returning home in the evening, use bone meal to accelerate the ripening of wheat, harvest it to obtain seeds, wheat, and most importantly, experience points.

Then, the night began with a crazy fishing spree.

Under such intense operation, Bai Li's experience points soared, and she leveled up again in no time, with more than half of her experience points already accumulated.

Level 1 is enough to cover the entire village!

If I'm not mistaken, it should happen in the next two or three days at the latest.

"Liu Er, if anything changes in the village in the next few days, tell them not to panic. Just say it was because of me."

Bai Li finished collecting the bone meal from the compost bin and said.

He wanted to talk to the villagers, but just standing there, they all seemed to be holding their tongues and barely said a word.

As soon as he approached, those people trembled like students meeting their teacher in the office, unable to utter a single word for a long time.

I'm not from the motherland, why are you so afraid of me?

Bai Li was quite helpless.

The only people he could communicate normally with were the village chief and Liu Er.

"Understood, boss."

Liu Er looked at Bai Li's tired expression with concern.

These days, apart from the initial task Bai Li had him do, which was supposedly an experiment, he has just been sitting on the shore fishing.

This fishing session can last all day.

All I could do was sit quietly next to Bai Li and chat about the trivial things that had happened in the village these past few days.

The boss had advised him to leave, but he refused. After all, all he could do for the boss now was keep him company and help him pass the time.

"Um."

Bai Li nodded slightly, preparing to return his little matchbox.

He just wants to expand to the village as quickly as possible.

I can't help with anything right now, but perhaps there's another way.

Feeling dejected, Liu Er made a decision in his heart and ran back home.

Several pickled fish hung from the eaves of the simple thatched hut, and the aroma of fish soup permeated the air inside.

At this moment, Ye Lan was busy preparing dinner.

After leaving Bai Li's place, they took Ye Lan to a doctor for diagnosis.

The result was that the illness was completely cured, but the body was still very weak.

After a few days of rest, Ye Lan was able to get out of bed. Originally, Ye Lan planned to go directly to the fields to help, but at Liu Da's insistence, she did some simple housework instead.

Liu Er looked around but couldn't see his father anywhere.

At this time, Dad should have already returned from the fields, right?

"Mother, hasn't Father come back yet?" Liu Er asked in confusion.

"Hey, not long after you left, your fourth uncle called him to go help the village chief. He hasn't come back yet. You should go and see him. It's almost lunchtime. Why isn't he back yet?"

Not far from the village chief's house, Liu Er saw one or two villagers carrying some furniture into the village chief's house.

The room was noisy with people talking, and the sound of heavy objects being moved could be heard from time to time.

What happened inside?

Liu Er was puzzled. He went inside and saw that almost all the men in the village were crammed into this small room.

As for Liu Dexi, he stood in the middle of the room, giving instructions the whole time.

"Move it a little more to the left, a little more to the right, okay, that's it!"

"Village chief, what are you doing? If I'm not mistaken, isn't this chair Uncle Er's treasure? He cherishes it so much, why is it here?"

And this bowl... Village chief, did you drug them with some kind of magic potion?

"That's not true, I don't have that kind of ability," Liu Dexi smiled, walked to the door, touched the threshold, his eyes full of reluctance: "I just discussed with Liu Qi and the others that we would stay at their place for now, and tidy up this house before leaving it to the Immortal Lord."

"Leave it for the eldest brother?" Liu Er was completely baffled.

"Yes, the only decent place in the village is this old house of mine. It's a blessing for us that the immortal is coming to our village to rest. We can't let the immortal sleep with us. But word got out, and everyone brought their own things over."

"But I know the boss very well, he definitely won't move in." Liu Er shook his head and said bluntly, "In that case, this house will probably just sit here empty."

Liu Dexi said earnestly, "Well, whether they live there or not is one thing, but whether they do anything is another. Anyway, the house is already vacant, and everyone has brought their things over. We can't just ask them to put them back, can we?"

Liu Er turned to look at everyone, and they all shook their heads with smiles.

"I've already put everything over here, it's exhausting, I don't want to carry it all back."

"Exactly! My mom said if I dare to secretly take this thing back, she'll break my legs!"

"They're just some wooden things, how can they compare to the Immortal Lord's kindness? Everyone agrees, right?"

"That's right, that's right."

"Hey, I've been the village chief for so long and I've never seen you guys so proactive. Usually, you're all as fast as rabbits when it comes to something!" Liu Dexi joked.

Someone laughed and chimed in, "My village chief, if you were even half as powerful as a celestial being, I'd have no problem ordering you around. I'd even clean your outhouse every day!"

"Hahahaha." Everyone burst into laughter.

Liu Dexi looked at the thriving scene before him with satisfaction.

For so many years, since the village's grain production decreased year after year, and even the river dried up, he hadn't seen everyone laugh happily.

All of this is because of the Immortal Lord!

"Liu Er, you're here to see your father, right? He's behind us."

Liu Dexi pointed in a direction, signaling Liu Er to go over.

"Liu Er, what brings you here?"

"It's getting late, Mother asked me to come and call you back for dinner."

Liu Da looked up at the sky, slapped his forehead, and said, "Damn it, I didn't notice the time. Let's go back."

"Father, I want to continue practicing archery. I want to protect the eldest brother," Liu Er said firmly.

Since the river dried up and food became increasingly scarce at home, in order to conserve food and reduce the loss of physical strength, Liu Er refused to practice archery, citing a lack of interest.

The father was naturally happy to see that his son was willing to take over his craft.

But do gods need mortals to protect them?

Liu Da thought to himself, but he still nodded.

"Okay, let's start again tomorrow."
