One evening, Xu Yuehuai, Qi Guze, and Feng Wuhen sat under a big tree at the entrance of the village, enjoying the beautiful scenery under the setting sun.

Xu Yuehuai said with emotion, "I feel extremely gratified to see the village regain its vitality. This is the result of our joint efforts."

Qi Guze nodded and smiled in response, "Yes, we've been through so much hardship, but we've never given up. Now that we see the village getting better and better, I feel that all the sacrifices have been worthwhile."

Feng Wuhen also said with deep feeling, "We are not only rebuilding our homes, but also rebuilding our confidence and hope. As long as we have hope in our hearts, nothing can defeat us."

The three looked at each other and smiled, their friendship growing even stronger.

In the process of rebuilding their homes, the villagers also became more united and resilient. They helped each other and faced life's challenges together. Whenever they encountered difficulties, they would remember the words of Xu Yuehuai, Qi Guze, and Feng Wuhen, and muster their courage to move forward.

Xu Yuehuai often encourages the villagers: "Difficulties are only temporary. As long as we are united, nothing can stop us!" Her words are like a warm current, warming the hearts of the villagers.

Qi Guze would also patiently answer the questions the villagers encountered during the house repair process, helping them overcome difficulties. His meticulous guidance made the villagers feel extremely at ease.

Feng Wuhen frequently patrols the village to ensure the safety of the villagers. His presence has become a solid shield in the hearts of the villagers, making them feel extremely secure.

As time went by, the village's reputation gradually spread. More and more people came here to appreciate this beautiful land and the hardworking villagers. They brought new technologies and culture, sharing the little things in life with the villagers.

Xu Yuehuai, Qi Guze, and Feng Wuhen also grew and progressed in this process. They not only learned more knowledge and skills, but also made many like-minded friends.

As time went by, the changes in the village became increasingly remarkable. Newly built houses were scattered in an orderly fashion, the fields were lush and green, and the smiles on the villagers' faces became brighter and brighter.

On a sunny afternoon, Xu Yuehuai invited the villagers to gather in the village square to celebrate the joy of rebuilding their homes. The square was bustling with activity, as villagers sang and danced, their laughter echoing throughout.

Standing on the stage, Xu Yuehuai said excitedly, "Today, we gather here to celebrate the rebirth of our home. All of this is inseparable from everyone's hard work and selfless dedication. Let us continue to join hands and fight against evil!" Her words inspired everyone present, making them feel incredibly proud and uplifted.

Qi Guze and Feng Wuhen also delivered speeches, expressing their gratitude to the villagers and their expectations for the future. Their words were warm and powerful, giving the villagers an unprecedented sense of confidence and strength.

Xu Yuehuai watched all this with a smile, her heart filled with satisfaction and contentment. Qi Guze stood to the side, his gaze firm and profound, as if he were contemplating future plans and goals.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, Xu Yuehuai, Qi Guze, and Feng Wuhen stood in the rebuilt village square, watching the villagers busily at work. Rows of brand-new houses rose from the ground, and the fields were full of life again.

Feng Wuhen gazed into the distance, his eyes gleaming with unwavering resolve. He turned to Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze and said, "The danger has receded, and my mission is complete. I will return to the mountains and forests to secretly protect this land."

Xu Yuehuai looked at Feng Wuhen gratefully, knowing full well the tremendous effort he had put in during this time. She said sincerely, "Thank you for your help during this time. We will never forget your kindness."

Feng Wuhen smiled slightly and shook his head: "No, I'm just fulfilling my duty. This land needs someone to protect it, and I am that person."

Qi Guze patted Feng Wuhen on the shoulder, his eyes filled with respect: "I hope we'll have the chance to meet again next time, Brother Feng."

Feng Wuhen nodded, a hint of reluctance flashing in his eyes, but more so a firm determination: "There definitely will be."

After speaking, Feng Wuhen turned and left, his figure gradually disappearing into the afterglow of the setting sun. Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze watched him leave, their hearts filled with gratitude and respect.

As night fell, wisps of smoke rose from the village chimneys, creating a scene of tranquility and peace. Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze walked side by side on their way home, but their hearts were heavy.

Xu Yuehuai suddenly stopped and turned to look at Qi Guze: "I have a feeling that I'm not at ease. Feng Wuhen, he..."

Qi Guze took her hand and said gently, "Don't worry, I'll have guards follow him to ensure his safety."

Xu Yuehua nodded, her worries lessening slightly. She looked up at Qi Guze, her eyes filled with trust and reliance.

The two continued walking when Qi Guze suddenly put his arm around Xu Yuehuai's shoulder and pulled her tightly into his arms. He lowered his head and gently kissed her forehead: "You've had a tough time these past few days."

Xu Yuehuai leaned against Qi Guze's chest, feeling his warmth and strength. She smiled, shook her head, and said, "No, as long as I'm with you, I'm not afraid of any difficulties."

The two embraced and walked into the house, closing the door to shut out the outside noise. Inside, the room was warm and cozy; they sat nestled together on the edge of the bed, enjoying a rare moment of peace…

However, the peaceful days did not last long. The remnants of the cult did not give up. They continued to operate in secret, trying to find an opportunity to take revenge on Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze.

One night, Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze were resting peacefully inside the house. Suddenly, a rapid knocking on the door shattered the silence like a thunderclap. The two immediately sat up, their eyes flashing with sharp light.

Qi Guze quickly put on his coat, picked up the longsword on the table, and strode towards the door. Xu Yuehuai followed closely behind, gripping her weapon tightly, her expression solemn.

The two opened the door, and there stood a guard, panting heavily, shouting anxiously, "Something terrible has happened! Lord Feng Wuhen... he's in danger!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze felt a pang of anxiety, a hint of worry flashing in their eyes. They immediately followed the guards to a dark grove of trees outside the village.

Feng Wuhen lay on the ground, wounded in several places, his clothes stained with blood. His face was pale, and his breath was weak, clearly indicating that he had just experienced a fierce and terrifying battle.

Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze rushed forward to help Feng Wuhen up. Qi Guze took out some wound medicine from his pocket and carefully treated his wounds. Xu Yuehuai held Feng Wuhen's hand tightly, her eyes full of concern and worry.
