Water Ghost, God Hunter, Immortal Healer, and the Great Xia's Number One Martial Saint!

Li Lai's family is very domineering, which can be seen from the fact that he owns more than 100 acres of land in this village.

Moreover, of these 100-plus acres of land, half are good land, the other half are medium land, and the low-grade land is very rare, scattered throughout the village.

As a villager, Li Xingdao was already quite familiar with the land belonging to each household.

As he left Li Lai's house, he followed Aunt Zhang Cui around, watching her plump body sway as she led him around to familiarize himself with the land, and he memorized the locations of the land.

It's almost time to harvest the wheat now, and there's not much work left; we're just waiting for the wheat to ripen and be harvested.

So Zhang Cui took Li Xingdao for a walk in the field, then went back with him and poured him a bowl of water.

"Auntie is so kind, I will definitely farm the land well."

Li Xingdao accepted the tea with a simple smile and thanked him.

"Okay, I'll wait until you've finished cultivating my land."

Zhang Cui had no suspicion of the honest Li Xingdao. She smiled and spoke, then turned around and went to the east room to lay down a bamboo bed for him.

He set up his chair against the wall five steps away from the wooden bed where Li Lai was lying, and then made up his bedding.

As someone who was brought here to join the gang, it is only right that we should repay Li Xingdao by providing him with food and lodging.

If someone were poorer, they might still be thinking about Li Xingdao's farm tools and ask him to bring them along with his tools and bedding.

But the Li family was clearly different; they skipped this step.

"This idiot can sleep on the ground with some straw, why bother making him so nice? Take him to chop wood!"

Just as Zhang Cui finished making the bed, Li Lai, who had been dozing off on the bed for a while, noticed her movement and started yelling at her, causing Zhang Cui to hurriedly come out.

"We're out of firewood at home. Now that we've covered the land, let's go up the mountain and chop some firewood."

Zhang Cui entered the main room, raised her beautiful face, looked at Li Xingdao with a smile, and as she spoke, placed a bundle of rope and an axe in Li Xingdao's hands.

"Okay, Auntie, let's go chop some firewood!"

Looking at the axe, Li Xingdao instantly thought of the three basic professions he was about to begin practicing, and he immediately perked up, grabbing the axe and rope and setting off.

"That idiot, he's so happy to be working."

Li Lai peeked out and saw Li Xingdao's reaction to the news that he had to work. He immediately cursed disdainfully, and the annoyance he felt from being tormented vanished.

"With this idiot working, we can keep our land. Once I recover, this idiot will be useless."

Li Lai thought to himself, then calmed down and decided to be patient and not let this silly guy get away before he recovered.

Then it will be hard to find such cheap idiots again.

With that thought in mind, Li Lai smiled and lay back down on the bed.

“…………”

Peach Blossom Village is not close to the mountains, otherwise there would be no need for a man to go chop wood.

Zhang Cui and Li Xingdao walked for an hour before reaching the foot of the mountain. After that, Li Xingdao followed the swaying, fair-skinned Zhang Cui into her family's woods, another half hour passed.

"Hey, you'd better look carefully. Only the trees on this mountain belong to us. We dare not touch the trees on the other mountains."

The firewood on the mountain is limited; not just anyone can cut it, nor can it be cut randomly. Zhang Cui carefully showed Li Xingdao the boundary markings and earnestly instructed him.

In this era, it is common for people to die in conflicts over land.

"Auntie, I understand."

Li Xingdao didn't want to cause trouble over this, so he remembered it very carefully. When he heard Zhang Cui's instructions, he nodded honestly and pointed to a buried stone tablet: "I'm inside this stone."

Okay, that's good to know.

Seeing Li Xingdao's serious expression, Zhang Cui also showed a gentle smile: "Auntie, rest here for a while, and I'll help you bundle and carry the firewood later."

"Alright, Auntie, just you wait and see!"

Li Xingdao knew that since he had been eating, drinking, and living at their house, it was time for him to do his part, so he immediately nodded with a simple smile and agreed.

Without resting, he took a long-handled axe and went to a wild tree as thick as a thigh, then chopped it down hard at the base.

"Whoosh~"

With one swing of the axe, a piece was instantly chopped off the tree.

Li Xingdao paused for a moment, and seeing that the profession panel was not responding, he guessed that the conditions were not met, so he gently swung his axe one after another.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~"

One axe blow after another.

When lifting the axe, exert force; when chopping, rely mainly on gravity; and when about to strike, release the force to avoid recoil.

Relying on his experience in this world, Li Xingdao, with his limited physical strength, cut down the wild tree.

"Unlocking a new class even comes with attribute point rewards!"

A series of messages appeared the instant the wild tree was felled, and Li Xingdao instantly felt that he had gained more experience and knew how to swing knives and axes more effortlessly.

The last attribute point, in particular, made his eyes flicker slightly. After thinking for a moment, he originally wanted to add it to the [Qi] attribute to avoid Qi deficiency.

The result was a notification that the skill points obtained from the basic profession could not be added to the Qi attribute. I was taken aback for a moment, and had no choice but to add them to the Jing attribute.

After allocating his attribute points, Li Xingdao instantly felt a warm current flowing through his body and sensed that his strength had increased significantly!

"If one tree grants one experience point, will I level up after chopping down nine more trees?"

Li Xingdao felt the effects of the attribute points, looked at the information on the panel, and pressed the button with joy in his heart.

But the hunger pangs that came over him the next moment made his expression change. He immediately realized that his strength hadn't increased for no reason; it required the consumption of energy within his body.

Looking at the sky again, he quickly stopped himself from continuing to cut down trees and started cutting off the branches of the wild trees and chopping the trunks into several sections.

"Alright, let's hurry back and cook. Your Uncle Lai must be getting impatient."

Zhang Cui also came over to help, her fair face beaming with smiles. She was clearly very satisfied with Li Xingdao's woodcutting results, and together they carried the cut wood pieces back.

It wasn't easy to carry that tree back; the two of them had to rest two or three times along the way before they were able to carry it back.

After exhausting himself, he finished tidying up. By dinner time, Li Xingdao was starving and ate six or seven bowls of rice before stopping.

After we finished eating, it was already midday and very hot.

Looking at Li Lai, who had finished eating and lay back on the bed, and Zhang Cui, who had a graceful figure, fair skin, and a beautiful face, his eyes flickered.

"Auntie, you promised me before..."

Li Xingdao's eyes flickered. He stood up and walked to the bedside of Li Lai, who was lying down. He blocked Zhang Cui's way of leaving and stared at her intently as he spoke.
