I woke up the next day when it was already bright outside.

Li Xingdao shifted his body on the bed. After resting for an afternoon and sleeping all night, he had recovered about 70-80% of his injuries, even with a spirit attribute below 1.7.

What stirred something within him was that his own body had also become much fuller.

"Well, that does add attribute points."

He couldn't resist opening the job panel, preparing to allocate skill points, when he discovered something that delighted him.

[Host: Li Xingdao]

【职业:樵夫Lv2(经验值2/50);渔夫Lv4(经验值18/1250)】

(The following profession can be further awakened: Farmer, which requires working the land; after the profession is upgraded to Lv5, you can change professions.)

【Fine: 1.7】

[Qi: 0.9]

【God: 5】

[Attribute Points: 0.2]

[Skills: Woodcutting Lv2; Fishing Lv4]

The Qi attribute has actually recovered to a value of 0.9!

Looking at his Qi attribute value, Li Xingdao was overjoyed and couldn't help but clench his fist.

He thought to himself, "No wonder I feel lighter today, and my fatigue has recovered so quickly. It turns out that my Qi attribute has been restored."

He was somewhat puzzled as to why his qi attribute had suddenly recovered so quickly, but considering the meat he had eaten and the time he had spent working in the sun on the mountain over the past two days, he roughly came to a conclusion:

Perhaps it's because they eat well.

It's simple, but also very straightforward—only by eating well can the body have enough energy; with enough energy, one can be healthy enough, which is the foundation of health.

That's why he's able to have a 0.9 Qi attribute now.

Because he ate a whole chicken, eight chicken legs, and so many eggs in the past two days, plus the supply of fish, it's normal for his blood sugar to have returned to 0.9.

Moreover, Li Xingdao could feel that his body had regained its normal, powerful feeling, instead of the emptiness caused by the previous lack of energy.

This stirred something within him, and then, thinking of the wood-chopping work he was to do today, he immediately added the 0.2 attribute points directly to his Spirit attribute.

【Fine: 1.9】

A clear flow of heat circulated through his body, and Li Xingdao instantly felt that the strength of his muscles and bones was increasing, and his internal organs seemed to become more powerful. A sense of pleasure welled up from within him.

But as the warmth dissipated, that familiar feeling of emptiness and hunger surged back into my stomach.

Fortunately, he was given a chicken to eat this morning.

Upon realizing this, Li Xingdao couldn't wait any longer. He hurriedly got up, put on his clothes, and went outside to brush his teeth.

When he went outside, he saw that Zhang Cui, who had gotten up early, had already cooked a whole chicken until it was almost done, and a smile immediately appeared on his face.

It was because of this chicken that he so decisively added those 0.2 attribute points.

Otherwise, even if his body recovers, he will have to wait for his energy to accumulate again and then replenish it to avoid feeling physically empty.

Now that we have this whole chicken to make up for the deficit of 0.2 attribute points, after eating our fill and doing some wood chopping, we should be able to make up for the deficit by noon.

Upon realizing this, Li Xingdao beamed with joy and couldn't help but step forward to hug Zhang Cui, expressing his gratitude to her.

Zhang Cui hugged him with a smile and told him that he was going to chop firewood and would be tired, so he should eat more.

Li Xingdao smiled and agreed repeatedly.

Once the chicken was cooked, he helped Zhang Cui carry the chicken and rice dishes to the main room, and then began to eat heartily.

Li Lai had been awake for a while and saw the chicken being served, but he refrained from eating it.

Instead, he watched as Li Xingdao ate all the chicken, leaving only the wing tips, head, and feet—the parts with no meat—in the bowl. Then he washed his mouth, ate a bowl of rice and vegetables, and got up to leave.

Only then did he pick up his chopsticks, put the chicken head into his bowl, and savor it slowly.

Chicken was a rare delicacy, and he wanted to eat it too, but he knew that Li Xingdao needed the energy from the chicken when he went to the mountains to chop firewood for the brick kiln, so he didn't try to take the food from him.

But now that Li Xingdao has let go of it himself, he naturally won't hold back.

Seeing Li Lai eat chicken, Zhang Cui didn't eat the remaining chicken feet and wing tips, but gave them to him. She drank some chicken soup and tasted the oil.

Then I ate some rice and vegetables with the chicken soup and was satisfied. After that, I went to wash the dishes and pots.

Li Lai looked at the doorway with a smile, thinking to himself: With this kid working for him at the brick kiln, he can continue to get his share of the brick kiln, which is more profitable than the kid collecting more grain.

"I wonder how much profit this kid can earn from the brick kiln shares."

Li Lai became happier and happier as he thought about it, and couldn't help but mutter to himself, his face beaming with a bright smile.

As for whether Li Xingdao will die from exhaustion from constantly cutting down trees and farming, what does that have to do with him?

As long as his legs recover before he dies from exhaustion, that's fine.

Thinking of this, Li Lai couldn't help but chuckle softly again.

The family had seven brothers, and since there were many men in the family, they took turns doing all the work at the brick kiln to ensure they had enough rest time. They also ate plenty of oily food.

He didn't care whether Li Xingdao would die from overexertion.

I hope he can wait until his legs recover before he dies.

Outside, Zhang Cui washed clothes expressionlessly, without uttering a word.

…………

Li Xingdao knew that there was a brick kiln near Peach Blossom Village, and he also knew where the brick kiln was.

However, he did not go rashly. Instead, he went to Li Xiaohua's house first, and then, led by Li Xiaohua's father, Li Nao, he went straight to the brick kiln.

There is a dense grove of trees next to the brick kiln.

Looking around, the rows of brand-new wooden stakes on the ground and the acres of saplings in the distance all indicate that this is a forest farm specifically used as a reserve timber forest for brick kilns.

Trees are being cut down in waves, but they are also being planted continuously, so looking around, you can see mature trees, trees that are growing, and saplings.

New saplings are planted in the pits left after the newly cut tree stumps are dug up, creating a good timber supply cycle.

"Take this axe and chop down a tree. Every time you chop one down, I'll mark it as a tree and give you an egg."

Li Nao, carrying a long-handled axe, led him to the edge of the woods, smiling as he pointed to the mature trees ahead and said, "Once you've cut them down, lunchtime will come. Someone will call you to eat. If you cut down more than ten trees, you'll get an ounce of pork belly."

After saying that, Li Nao tossed the axe to him: "You just keep chopping down the trees. Someone will come and pull them up after you've cut them down, and someone will keep a record of it."

"Remember, you cut down Li Lai's property. We won't shortchange you, don't worry."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Li Xingdao looked into the shed next to the brick kiln and saw two or three teenagers looking in his direction. He knew that they must be the ones responsible for cutting and transporting the trees.

He then picked up the long-handled axe and tried it out. It was even more handy than the axe he used to cut down trees in the mountains before, making it much more convenient to use for chopping trees.

A thought flickered in his mind, and he then used his level two woodcutter skill, his eyes flashing as he chopped down a tree in front of him.

"Du"

With a soft click, the axe blade pierced the wood three inches deep in an instant, and a smile appeared on Li Xingdao's lips.

"Knock knock knock..."

Since he was asked to chop down the tree, Li Xingdao didn't care about anything else and picked up his axe to continue chopping.
