The cultivation of immortality by mortals begins with the abandoned children of the river

"Brother Zhan, do you think we will be in trouble?" Li Xiaoqiang asked timidly.

"If you don't say it and I don't say it, what can happen? Don't scare yourself." Zhan Nianchuan answered indifferently and left.

Not long after he left, Zhan Nianchuan came back with a few wild animals. He tied up the wild animals, and then put new wooden stakes on them and threw the wild animals on them to death.

Looking at Li Xiaoqiang next to him, Zhan Nianchuan ordered: "Eat half of these wild animals and keep half. Clean up these scorched earth and make the traps."

After that, he threw twenty spirit stones to Li Xiaoqiang and reminded him again: "Hide it well, don't keep it on your body for the time being, wait a month, you have to be extra careful in the next few days, don't be afraid, it's me who killed it, not you, think about what to say if someone comes."

After that, he looked at the sky and said, "I haven't finished picking water yet, so I'm leaving first."

......

Li Hong's strange disappearance soon caused a lot of turmoil in the chores, and also prompted Deacon Jiang Zheng to leave the chores early and take charge of the chores again.

Jiang Zheng is a careful and suspicious person. He can be sure that Li Hong must have been murdered, but Li Hong's actions have offended too many people. He doesn't know who killed Li Hong for a while.

At this time, Jiang Zheng sat in the chores, checking the recent abnormalities. After all, Li Hong has been with him for many years and is loyal. If possible, Jiang Zheng still hopes to find the murderer for him.

Suddenly, Jiang Zheng's eyes fixed and looked at the large bronze mirror on the table.

"The only variable during this period of time is that several new chores have been brought in, and only two people were clearly persecuted by Li Hong, Zhan Nianchuan and Li Xiaoqiang. No, how could Zhan Nianchuan complete the task of carrying water to Lindan Peak, and Li Xiaoqiang could actually survive in the utility room. There must be something wrong."

Thinking of this, Jiang Zheng stood up suddenly and took people directly to the residence of Zhan Nianchuan and Li Xiaoqiang.

"Search for me!" Jiang Zheng kicked open the door of Zhan Nianchuan's room, and several people immediately rushed into the room and searched wildly.

Soon, Jiang Zheng, who had gained nothing, led his men to block Zhan Nianchuan at the top of Lindan Peak.

Seeing Jiang Zheng, who looked cold and kept examining him, Zhan Nianchuan was surprised to put down the pole and saluted Jiang Zheng, "Hello, Deacon Jiang."

Seeing Zhan Nianchuan carrying four full buckets of water at the same time, Jiang Zheng narrowed his eyes, "You are so strong?"

"Yes, I am naturally strong." Zhan Nianchuan said frankly that he had expected Jiang Zheng to notice him, so he exposed part of his strength to see if he could dispel Jiang Zheng's doubts.

In a blink of an eye, Jiang Zheng's figure appeared in front of Zhan Nianchuan, frightening him to take a step back, horrified, "Deacon Jiang, what...what are you going to do?"

Jiang Zheng grabbed Zhan Nianchuan's shoulder, feeling like grabbing a piece of iron, knowing that he was indeed a mortal with amazing physique, and there was no fluctuation of mana, and he couldn't even draw air into his body, he was completely a mortal.

"Could it be that Li Hong was deliberately trying to trick him, but he happened to encounter this guy with divine power? And this guy is just a mortal, how could he kill Li Hong?" Jiang Zheng was confused for a moment, and pulled off Zhan Nianchuan's errand bag with his backhand.

There was only a thin book, a set of clothes, a few fasting pills, and a spiritual stone in it, and everything seemed normal.

"How did you get the spiritual stone?" Jiang Zheng asked sternly.

Zhan Nianchuan was startled and answered in a low voice: "I received the contribution points last month and exchanged them for a spiritual stone. If Deacon Jiang likes it, I can give it to..."

Jiang Zheng couldn't listen any more, and threw the bag back to Zhan Nianchuan with a cold face, and left with people.

Watching Jiang Zheng's back gradually disappear, Zhan Nianchuan breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the shoulder pole.

......

Back at the errand office, Jiang Zheng used the sound transmission note to ask his friends in the Contribution Hall, and learned that Zhan Nianchuan did spend two contribution points in exchange for a spiritual stone.

Everything seemed normal, and there seemed to be nothing suspicious, but Jiang Zheng instinctively felt something was wrong.

After thinking about it, he decided to go to the utility room.

When he arrived at the utility room, Jiang Zheng found a thin child struggling to peel the animal skin from a distance. He thought it was Li Xiaoqiang.

At this time, Li Xiaoqiang also found him and waved his hand, "Go here, don't fall down."

Jiang Zheng was stunned, and released his own third-level spiritual consciousness, barely passed through the ground below, and found that there was indeed a trap, and he couldn't help but feel moved.

Entering the utility room, Li Xiaoqiang learned of Jiang Zheng's identity from his followers, and was frightened. He looked like he was nodding and bowing, and with his thin body, Jiang Zheng could not connect him with the person who killed Li Hong anyway.

"How long have you dug this trap?" Jiang Zheng asked casually, staring at Li Xiaoqiang closely.

"It's been more than ten days." Li Xiaoqiang replied. This was the answer he had thought about for a long time and repeatedly pondered.

"Why dig a trap?" Jiang Zheng pressed on.

Li Xiaoqiang felt puzzled, "It must be hunting wild animals. When I first came here, there were wild animals everywhere. I could only deal with them by digging traps. Many wild animals really fell into the traps." After saying that, he pointed to the dead bodies of wild animals hanging next to him.

Jiang Zheng stepped forward to look at the wounds of the wild animals, and suddenly walked out of the door.

Li Xiaoqiang saw this and hurriedly followed him out. At this time, he was really convinced by Zhan Nianchuan.

The trap had collapsed, and Jiang Zheng jumped into the pit and looked at the wooden stakes below. The blood on them had dried up. Jiang Zheng sniffed and it was indeed the smell of wild animal blood, and the wounds were consistent with the wounds on the wild animals just now.

After searching Li Xiaoqiang's pockets, Jiang Zheng still found nothing. He left without looking back.

The chores returned to peace, as if Li Hong had never existed.
