Just as Ye Liang approached Xiaoxian Village, before even entering the city, he suddenly received a new mission.
"The second task in the phase of strengthening the mountain gate: managing Xiaoxianzhuang."
"Mission Details: Xiaoxian Village has been devastated by bandits, leaving it in ruins and in dire need of rebuilding. Manage Xiaoxian Village well and restore it to its former glory to earn generous rewards."
Upon receiving this mission, Ye Liang knew that it was a mission to strengthen the sect, a follow-up mission to the first stage, which was to wipe out the bandits. It was the second stage mission.
This second phase of the task was exactly what Ye Liang had in mind.
Originally, he also wanted to properly manage the villages under the jurisdiction of Bixian Sect.
Now that this matter has become a mission, it's even better.
Now that I've done something I was going to do anyway, and I even get a reward, why not?
Besides, after completing the first phase of the task and receiving such generous rewards, how could one not look forward to even more generous rewards in the second phase?
Upon entering Xiaoxianzhuang, they were immediately welcomed by Li Xiaoliu and his men, who were part of the village's guards.
While sending people to inform the village chief that Ye Liang and the junior sister of Bixian Sect had come down the mountain to Xiaoxian Village, they accompanied Ye Liang to see the women he had rescued and settled in Xiaoxian Village.
This was Ye Liang's request: to go see the women and children first.
Those women never expected that Ye Liang would actually keep his word and come to visit them.
Bringing the child along meant kneeling before Ye Liang with the highest respect, otherwise, there would be no way to express gratitude.
At this moment, village chief Wei Shan also rushed over.
After exchanging pleasantries with Ye Liang, the two began discussing the arrangements for the women and children.
Of these women, only Zhang Juan was from the local Xiaoxianzhuang village; the others were from nearby villages.
Ye Liang and the village chief agreed that they would arrange for someone to send these women home as soon as possible.
As for Juanzi, who was born locally, she forbade her fellow villagers from gossiping about her.
Their lives are already hard enough; we can't let the villagers gossip behind their backs and make it even harder for them to survive.
Ye Liang even bluntly stated that whoever did this would be kicked out of the village at the foot of Bixianmen Mountain, along with their entire family!
Go wherever you want!
These words sounded a bit too harsh to village chief Wei Shan, but he also felt that if Ye Liang was a disciple of the Bixian Sect, then he really had the authority to say so.
That is, they didn't say much about the matter.
After finishing their business, Ye Liang took out a lot of wild boar meat and gave it to the women, telling them to nourish their children.
Then I saw some children who looked on with envy at Ye Xing, Ye Ke, Ye Leng, and Ye Le, who were all wearing new clothes because of him. Their eyes were filled with longing for the new clothes.
Ye Liang treated them all equally, using his life skills to tailor the same beginner clothes and give them to them, so they wouldn't have to envy others and could have new clothes to wear too.
Upon receiving these new clothes, the children, who were usually quiet and reserved, now looked at Ye Liang with bright, sparkling eyes.
Holding the clothes as if they were priceless treasures.
Looking at the smiles on their faces, and the smiles on their mother's face, Ye Liang felt that it was all worth it.
Ye Liang also gave these women some advice: if they went back home, their people would gossip about them, so they mustn't get angry with them. If they felt they couldn't survive there, they could always come back to Little Immortal Manor and live there. As for these children, if they wanted to cultivate immortality and become disciples of an immortal sect, they could come back and register with him, and he would arrange for them to join the sect.
Having received Ye Liang's instructions, the woman regarded him as her second father even more, and knelt down before him again, so deeply that she couldn't be pulled up.
No one could understand their feelings. No one understood how important it was to them that Ye Liang treated them like human beings.
After visiting these women and children, Ye Liangcai, accompanied by his junior sister and the four children beside her, and Li Xiaoliu and others, went to the village doctor to buy medicine to treat lice for the children.
When Ye Liang went to buy medicine to get rid of lice, he noticed that the doctor selling the medicine and the two old men from the two shops next door looked somewhat familiar.
Later, when Ye Liang saw that the doctor refused to accept the money from his junior sister for the medicine to treat lice, he became certain that these three people must be the same three figures who appeared in the other direction from yesterday when fighting the mountain bandits.
At that time, Ye Liang was fighting with the bandit leader, unleashing the power of his Wind and Thunder Sword. As he soared into the air, he vaguely saw three distinctive figures in the distance.
One has only one arm, one is lame, and one is a woman—how could they not be recognized?
Ye Liang recognized him.
After buying the lice medicine, Ye Liang asked Li Xiaoliu about it.
Li Xiaoliu hesitated before finally saying that the three of them had forbidden them from talking about this to anyone else.
Li Xiaoliu confirmed Ye Liang's keen eye.
These three people were indeed present at the scene of fighting the bandits yesterday.
Moreover, these three people are all quite strong. Li Xiaoliu said that they should at least have reached the Foundation Establishment stage.
However, their strength probably isn't too high, because they don't seem to be able to defeat the bandit leader.
However, these three old men and women are definitely not ordinary people either.
Having learned of this, Ye Liang instructed Li Xiaoliu to keep it a secret that he had asked about it.
Afterwards, Ye Liang asked Li Xiaoliu to accompany his junior sister and the four children to distribute some of the lice-killing medicine he had bought to the women and children, and then he went back by himself.
