These people were firing bricks in a kiln, but all the bricks they produced shattered, and they stood there helplessly.
The kiln in Linjia Village had just been built, and they were simply firing bricks according to the steps they remembered. However, none of them had specifically learned how to do it, so the bricks they produced were all misshapen.
When Cui Ying returned with her people, they all looked at her expectantly.
Gu Rui: "..."
He really knows how to make bricks. His family used to run a brick factory, so he had some knowledge of traditional brick-making methods.
at night.
Exhausted, the two returned to their respective rooms. Gu Rui had originally wanted to ask his companion if he was a time traveler, but he was too tired today, so he washed up and went straight to sleep, completely forgetting about it.
The next morning, when he woke up, Le Bai next door had disappeared, probably off to the fields to do his research again.
Not only that, after lunch, a group of children were brought over by their elders to have the two of them learn to read.
Another fulfilling and busy day has come to an end.
Both of them had forgotten what they had originally planned to do.
afternoon.
Wang Wan returned with Wang Qing. She also had a house to build, and she couldn't keep bothering others.
But the villagers of Linjia Village are very hospitable and always come to help.
Wang Wan felt very embarrassed, so she took the initiative to accept a task: to teach the children of Linjia Village cultivation techniques and swordsmanship.
Moreover, these children have excellent physical constitutions, especially some of the children blessed by the Mountain Goddess, whose bodies are basically free of impurities, making them very suitable for cultivation.
Although spiritual energy is scarce in this world, it is not entirely absent. If one cultivates diligently, dealing with ordinary demons and evil spirits will be a piece of cake.
Wang Wan arrived on a flying sword, leaving Gu Rui and Le Bai, who were busy at work, completely dumbfounded.
So, is this really a fantasy world of cultivation?
"Do you two also want to come and learn?" Wang Wan frowned slightly when she saw the light in their eyes.
Gu Rui and Le Bai exchanged a glance and nodded in unison.
Who wouldn't want to cultivate immortality?
"Are you followers of the Mountain Goddess?" Wang Wan asked again.
“If not, then I’m sorry I can’t teach you,” Wang Wan said coldly.
Gu Rui and Le Bai nodded in unison, their expressions more resolute than the other.
"Alright, you can just watch from the sidelines. How much you learn depends on your comprehension," Wang Wan said indifferently.
Other villagers from Linjia Village will also come to learn, just two more people, since they are all believers of the Mountain Goddess anyway.
As a result, the two time travelers became even busier, wishing they could split themselves into two people. They had no other thoughts about leaving.
Yu Luo was very satisfied with all of this.
There are too many transmigrators, which is definitely a burden on this world. Why don't they all come to the barren mountains to work and build a beautiful home?
I wonder how things are going in Quanzhou.
Yu Luo opened the panoramic map and found that the two women were in the county government office in Quan County.
Neither of them was very literate, and even though they were holding files, they didn't know what was recorded inside. They could only squat nearby and eavesdrop on the conversations of these people.
After traveling to several places, they finally found some useful information and once again disappeared into the shadows.
Yu Luo sighed, feeling that the adults in Linjia Village should also open literacy classes, and that it shouldn't just be children who learn.
Two time travelers have just arrived. One will teach the children, and the other will teach the adults. Is that alright?
Gu Rui and Le Bai had no idea what would happen in the future; they were currently filled with enthusiasm and practicing swordsmanship together.
The county government office in Huangxian.
Xu Rurong looked at the document and suddenly slapped her forehead.
How could he not have thought that the evil spirit secretly watching him was so similar to the evil spirit in Shijia Village? They might even be the same one!
Shijia Village produced two top scholars in the imperial examinations, and another top scholar emerged just a year ago, who is now ready to come here to serve as the county magistrate!
As for the unspoken rule that officials cannot serve in their own hometowns, it doesn't matter at all. Isn't there a high-ranking official in Shijia Village? With just a little manipulation, there's no problem at all!
He had been so scared that he had forgotten this!
This is even worse. Shijia Village isn't that far from here. If that evil spirit really wanted to do something to him, it could take care of him in an instant!
Luckily, I didn't run away rashly before, otherwise even if I had a few more lives, it wouldn't have been enough!
As Xu Rurong was comforting herself, Luo Yong walked in with a peasant woman from Linjia Village.
"Magistrate Xu, we went to chase after Wu Cuiying from Linjia Village, but we still haven't found her." Luo Yong said with some frustration.
He brought so many people there, yet he still couldn't find it!
"It seems Wu Cuiying is determined to leave, so it's normal that you can't find her."
"Is there anything else this lady has to do at the county office?" Xu Rurong recognized her at a glance; this was the woman who had carried the wooden coffin in the residence of the Goddess of Fertility.
"Your Excellency, we have already investigated some cases from previous years."
"Over the past decade or so, some gifted children have emerged in Quanxian County, but they have all died young for various reasons."
"Some of the scholars who went to take the imperial examinations never returned."
"The Mountain Goddess has already reminded the ancestors that the disappearance of these people is related to demons and evil spirits, and told the county government to be careful."
After saying this, the peasant woman disappeared into the shadows again.
Upon hearing this, Xu Rurong took it very seriously and quickly summoned County Magistrate Chen to review the case files of Huang County over the years.
You wouldn't believe it until you investigate; what you find is shocking. Over the years, quite a few villagers have come to the authorities to report that their children have gone missing.
Xu Rurong frowned. It seemed that the evil spirit had already secretly infiltrated the desolate county.
