Li Nianfan looked at the crowd and shook his head. This is the power of knowledge.

The mastermind behind the scenes suffered from lack of education.

He knew without thinking that someone wanted to frame the bull demon and pin the crime of murder on it, but... one move was wrong. He

couldn't tell the difference between a male and a female cow.

Gao Yue was a little excited and asked, "Aniu, you really didn't kill my father?"

Aniu?

Li Nianfan's mouth twitched. This name is really appropriate.

Is this the shemale version of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl?

A Niu was vindicated and said, "Yue'er, I definitely didn't do it!"

Seeing Gao Yue preparing to walk towards A Niu, the handsome young man beside him suddenly had a flash of eyes, grabbed Gao Yue and said, "Yue'er, this matter is still very strange, the bull demon is still untrustworthy!" After

a pause, he continued, "There is no doubt that Mr. Gao's injuries were caused by the bull's horns, and even if it was not done by this bull demon himself, it might be done by another bull demon himself. In short, there are still many suspicions!"

Hearing this, Gao Yue's face changed again, and he was a little at a loss.

Li Nianfan looked at the handsome young man, but his eyes showed a thoughtful look.

As a modern man who has been baptized by all kinds of melodramatic plots in his previous life, his brain quickly sorted out some things. Although it was just a guess, it should be almost right.

After all, this is just a world of cultivating immortals. Strength is the first, and the skills of using means are much lower-end. It's not that Li Nianfan is arrogant. Some schemes are as simple as children playing house in his eyes.

This bull monster is not a big character. The only one who is worthy of people's covetousness is probably Miss Gao Yue of the Gao family who is in love with it.

From beginning to end, the elegant young man was obviously splashing dirty water on the bull monster, and he wanted to get rid of it as soon as possible. He was always by Gao Yue's side. His purpose was obvious.

Is this a triangular palace fight?

"Miss, the bull demon is a demon after all, so you'd better be on guard."

The old housekeeper beside Gao Yue spoke up, then looked at Li Nianfan and Nannan, and smiled and reminded: "Miss, we still have to thank this young man and girl, otherwise we would have killed a good person by mistake."

"Yes, yes."

Gao Yue nodded, then walked over, and said with red eyes: "I am Gao Yue, and I have met Master Li. Thank you for your righteous words, otherwise Gao Yue will regret it for the rest of her life."

Li Nianfan smiled and bowed, "Hello, Miss Gao, it's just a small favor, not worth mentioning."

Gao Yue asked again: "Master Li looks unfamiliar, is he not from Gaojiazhuang?"

Li Nianfan said: "I came from Luoxian City, and I came here because of my admiration for you."

Gao Yue immediately understood and said: "If Master Li doesn't mind, you can stay at Gao's house for a few days."

Li Nianfan was not polite, "That's great, thank you."

"This Taoist friend is really well-informed and observant. The theory that there are male and female horns is really eye-opening and knowledgeable."

The elegant young man walked over and said with a gentlemanly smile, "My name is Sun Yun, a disciple of Qingling Mountain. May I ask where your master is?"

Li Nianfan felt that he had seen through everything and was about to say a few perfunctory words to Sun Yun, but he heard Nannan say first, "My brother and I have no sect or school. Because of a coincidence, we got a super opportunity, which is why we can cultivate to this point."

Here it comes, and here it comes again.

The time to test human nature has come.

Li Nianfan was silent.

Sun Yun's eyes involuntarily lit up, and then quickly disappeared, turning into a cold light, sneering in his heart.

What a foolish boy, daring to ruin my good deeds, and even holding the jade in his arms, looking for death!

He smiled and said, "So that's the case, Brother Li must stay at the Gao family, and we can thank you very much!"

Then, Li Nianfan stayed at the Gao family's arrangement, and the Bull Demon was imprisoned.

In the next three days, the Gao family was full of white ribbons, arranging the funeral for Master Gao, and at the same time looking for the real murderer of Master Gao.

Through the intelligence gained in these three days, Li Nianfan has basically confirmed that the home of this Master Gao is the family where Zhu Bajie carried his wife on his back.

My goodness, it has been so many years, and it has remained unfailing, it is indeed mysterious.

Naturally, Li Nianfan must appreciate the charm of this place, and the first stop... is Houtian!

However, when he arrived at the back field, Li Nianfan found that there were quite a few people in the field, and if nothing unexpected happened, they all seemed to have some cultivation skills.

Various farm tools were scattered on the ground.

"Found it!"

At this moment, an excited voice came, and a cultivator covered in mud excitedly raised the... nail rake in his hand!

All his magic power surged towards the nail rake, "Nine-toothed nail rake, show your power quickly, and obey the order!"

"Bang!"

The nail rake broke without any suspense, and then someone came forward to be responsible for registration, "One or two silver coins each, you are not allowed to default on your debt."

"Heh, idiot!"

On the other side, a cultivator laughed mercilessly.

Then, his eyes suddenly focused, like fire, on a stick against the wall. "Nine-toothed rake, don't think I can't recognize you just because you turned into a stick. Why don't you show up quickly?"

In addition to these, there were people digging three feet into the ground, desperately digging the soil. The whole person had sunk so deep into the ground that only the soil could be seen "whooshing" out.

Of course, there were earth pits everywhere, and each one was like a treasure-hunting rat.

Li Nianfan turned his head speechlessly. It seemed that he couldn't stay here anymore. It was ruined. A good tourist attraction was ruined.

Coming out of the back fields, Li Nianfan also saw signs on the roadside, indicating "the road where Zhu Bajie carried his wife on his back" and "the attic where Zhu Bajie and his wife hid from cats"...

No way, it really became a tourist attraction?

Li Nianfan was shocked and too lazy to look at it again, so he just wandered around Gao's house.

"Squeak."

A light sound came, and Gao Yue happened to walk out of a room, her eyes were red, and she was wiping the corners of her eyes with a hand towel.

"Miss Gao."

"Mr. Li."

Gao Yue hurriedly saluted, like a flower in the wind, weak and sad. The sudden change must have been a big blow to her.

Li Nianfan asked curiously, "Miss Gao, many of the Gao family's settings really opened my eyes. May I ask who designed them?"

Gao Yue said bitterly, "Nothing is surprising. I had to do this."

Li Nianfan was surprised, "Had to?"

Gao Yue was originally a gentle woman, and she was very nice to Li Nianfan, so she calmly said, "It's all because of Journey to the West..."

It turned out that because many people knew that this was Gao Laozhuang, more people came here to look for treasures. The Gao family was in trouble and couldn't compete with the immortal cultivators, so Gao Yue came up with this idea in disguise. It's

better to open up than to block. Just

make it a tourist attraction. Don't you want to come? Come on, just pay money and come in and out as you like.

This has indeed suppressed the thoughts of many cultivators who wanted to use force.

It must be said that Gao Yue is really a wonderful woman.

Gao Yue continued: "Fortunately, my Gao Family Manor is protected by Qingling Mountain. Sun Yun is actually the young master of Qingling Mountain. He personally suppresses it here. This is also the reason why many cultivators dare not act recklessly."

Sun Yun?

That guy's game is much more advanced. He plays the long game to catch big fish.

However, Li Nianfan only thought about it in his heart. Gao Yue would definitely not believe what he said, and might even turn hostile.

Li Nianfan said, "Miss Gao is really amazing. She can even think of such a method."

"What's the use? My father is still dead."

Gao Yue pursed her lips and said sadly, "My Gao family has always been virtuous and has never made enemies. My father must have died because someone coveted the treasures in "Journey to the West."

Li Nianfan was silent.

He didn't expect that this matter was actually related to him.

If he hadn't told the story of "Journey to the West", Gaojia Manor would probably still be a carefree manor, and Mr. Gao would not have died.

It goes without saying that although Gao Yue didn't say it, she must be full of complaints about him.

Looking at Gao Yue's appearance, he felt a little guilty. He must help with this matter.

"No more, Master Li, Gao Yue is leaving."

Gao Yue bowed to Li Nianfan and turned around to continue to keep vigil for Master Gao.

Li Nianfan looked at her back, opened his mouth, and finally sighed, "Miss Gao, please stay."

Gao Yue turned her head in confusion, "Master Li, do you have any other instructions?"

Li Nianfan said, "Miss Gao, do you want to see Master Gao again?"

Gao Yue stared blankly, "Master Li, you...what do you mean?"

Li Nianfan said, "I can take Miss Gao to the underworld to see Master Gao."

Gao Yue's face suddenly showed excitement, and then she said in disbelief, "Really?"

"Miss Gao just needs to answer, yes or no."

"Yes, of course I am willing!" Gao Yue was looking forward to it and nodded hurriedly.

"Okay!"

Li Nianfan smiled, then raised his leg and stepped on the ground three times, "Land, Land, why don't you show up quickly?"

Gao Yue looked at Li Nianfan, while Li Nianfan looked at the ground, trying to stay calm.

It would be a lie to say that he was not panicking, after all, this was the first time he summoned the land.

If he failed, or there was no land in this area, then it would be a lot of fun, and his operation would seem a bit stupid.

Fortunately, the land did not disappoint Li Nianfan.

Not long after, a little old man holding a cane and hunched over emerged from the ground, spinning. He

was extremely nervous, and bowed to Li Nianfan in a serious manner, saying, "The little god pays respect to the Lord Saint."

Although he tried his best to restrain himself, his body was still shaking, and a bead of sweat appeared on his forehead. He didn't even dare to look at Li Nianfan.

There was no way, the Lord Saint's name was too famous, and even the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother had specifically instructed that the Lord Saint was an existence far beyond them and difficult to imagine. No matter who saw him, they had to do their best and use all means to please him. They must not neglect him, and they must not make the Lord Saint unhappy!

Li Nianfan looked at the land god curiously. His hair was very long and all white, dragging like dry grass. "Are you the land god here?"

"Yes, Lord Saint, I am the incarnation of the local ginseng essence. I am born with a tonic effect. If Lord Saint takes a fancy to that part of my body, just ask for it. I will cut it off immediately and offer it to you."

The land god said his story without thinking and showed his sincerity without hesitation.

"Ahem, no need. You are too enthusiastic."

Li Nianfan coughed lightly and then said, "Okay, take us to the nearest city god temple. We are going to go to the underworld."

The land god dared not neglect it and hurriedly said, "Lord Saint, please follow me."

Li Nianfan looked at Gao Yue, who had fallen into a daze, "Miss Gao, we are ready to set off."

"Ah!"

Gao Yue suddenly shuddered, covered her mouth in shock, and said blankly: "God... immortal?"

"Not really, I'm just a mortal with good luck."

Li Nianfan smiled and waved his hands, and then clouds began to appear under his feet, dragging Gao Yue and the land god, and soaring into the sky.

The City God Temple is located in a small city not far from here. With Li Nianfan's speed, it appeared in his sight in about five minutes.

The land god stood on the golden cloud of merit, his legs were shaking, and he felt that his life had never been so peak.

So many merits, I want to cry just looking at it...

He pointed the way with a trembling voice: "Mr. Li, it's just ahead."

"Well, thank you very much."

Li Nianfan nodded, and in order not to cause a commotion, he slowly landed on a wasteland outside the city.

The land god waved his hands repeatedly, and said with great trepidation: "Your Excellency the Holy Lord is too polite. If you have any other instructions, I will certainly be there at your beck and call!"

Li Nianfan looked at him, thought for a moment, and took out a honey peach and handed it over, a little embarrassedly saying: "I have nothing, just some food I brought with me. Although it is not a treasure, it tastes very good. You can try it."

He knew that because of his status as the Holy Lord of Merit and virtue, and because he was relatively well-connected, the gods were very polite to him, but... merit and virtue cannot be given away casually. If he just asked others for help without any expression, then the reputation would definitely not be good, which would not be conducive to the long-term.

After all, the food was also a piece of his heart, and the taste was enough to conquer the public, so as not to disappoint the people who helped him.

To put it bluntly, the way to behave in society is to do things properly...

The land god was stunned and stunned when he saw the peach in front of him.

He stared with his eyes wide open, almost lost in thought.

This, this, this...

this is called having nothing? This is called not a treasure?

This is obviously the biggest and most precious treasure in the world! It

is too precious, I am not even qualified to take a look!

Seeing that the land god was in a daze, Li Nianfan said with a little embarrassment: "If you don't like it, forget it."

"I like it, I like it!"

The land god suddenly felt cold all over, and his legs almost went limp. He knelt down and said quickly: "My mind suddenly became unclear just now, and I have some dementia. Please be magnanimous, Lord Saint, and don't blame me. I like eating peaches the most, really!"

"Hahaha, as long as you like it."

Li Nianfan smiled and handed the peach to the land god, "Then let's say goodbye."

The land god looked at Li Nianfan's leaving figure, and then looked at the peach in his hand. The hand holding the peach suddenly began to tremble violently.

In excitement, he took a deep breath, raised his hand and slapped his old face.

"Pa!"

This slap was merciless, and even left a slap mark on his face.

However, his mouth was wide open, his face wrinkled with laughter, and his whole body was shaking with excitement.

This is not a dream, this is not a dream!

I am rich, I am rich.

Just for showing me the way, I was given such a spiritual fruit. Woo woo woo, it is too extravagant, too touching.

No wonder everyone says that Lord Saint is a great figure. Being able to accompany Lord Saint is a great blessing earned through thousands of years of cultivation. Even if you just say a few words, it is an opportunity!

There are so many gods, and the probability of meeting Lord Saint is really too low, but... I didn't expect that I would have such an honor. I am so lucky, it's like winning the lottery!

I got rich overnight.

Too happy!

No! How can I enjoy such happiness alone? I have to find the land next door and make him happy too.

Not long ago, he just got a post-natal spiritual treasure and showed it off to me.

This time, I have to let him watch me eat...
