Bang bang bang...

There was a knock on the door. Ling Yu opened his eyes drowsily and looked at his phone. It was almost noon.

My head is still a little dizzy, which seems to be the sequelae of resisting the power of Xihe's water veins.

"Sister Xiaoya, it's you!"

Ling Yu got dressed, yawned and opened the door, only to see Yao Jingya standing pretty at the door.

"You lazy idiot, you haven't gotten up yet at noon, hurry up and wash yourself before eating."

Yao Jingya saw Ling Yu's face looking like he had just woken up and chuckled.

"Oh, I'll be right here, Mashan."

Ling Yu suddenly became clear-headed, smiled awkwardly, and immediately ran into the room.

Seeing his embarrassed look, Yao Jingya couldn't help but smile, then closed the door and left.

After the lunch gathering, the members of the archaeological team will go home.

Ling Yu sent Yao Jingya to the long-distance bus station and watched the bus slowly drive out of the station. He felt a sense of loss. It would be more than ten days before he saw Sister Xiaoya again.

We walked around the county town a few more times, bought some things, and then got on the county bus and headed towards Longquan Town.

In more than an hour, the shuttle bus passed the Longquan Bridge on the Longxi River and entered Longquan Town.

The water in Longxi River has returned to calm, but the accumulation of water on the bridge shows that the flood really happened this morning.

Longquan Town is a small town. There is only one street that runs through the entire town. There are scattered stalls selling retail goods on both sides of the street. There are not many pedestrians, so the business is relatively cold.

But Ling Yu knew that on March 8th of every month, it would be the market day, and people from all over the country would gather here. That would be a lively event!

Ling Yu's family is not in a small town, but in Lingjia Village, seven miles away from Longquan Town.

There are nine out of ten households in Lingjia Village named Ling, and they are considered a wealthy family in the area.

This area is surrounded by mountains. Lingjia Village is at the foot of the mountain. A cement road winds through the mountains leading to Lingjia Village.

As soon as he entered the village, some villagers greeted Ling Yu.

"Xiaoyu, why did you come back today? My little dog's grades have fallen a lot this semester, and he has been waiting for you to help with his homework!"

"Fourth Uncle, there is something going on at school. We are delayed. You can ask Coyotito to come to my house tomorrow, that's all right!"

"Okay, okay, okay, I feel relieved to have a college student like you as my tutor!"

........

As he walked, four or five villagers had already struck up a conversation with him, and Ling Yu was patient enough to answer them one by one.

Ling Yu was the first in the village to be admitted to a key university. Everyone who met him praised him, and he became a role model for many families in educating their children.

In response to this, Ling Yu could only smile bitterly.

"Sister-in-law, your Xiaoyu is back."

Turning around a small hill and diagonally entering Shuikouchong, where Ling Yu's home is located, the area is quite open. In addition to a large piece of farmland, there are more than a dozen houses located on the hillside. This chute is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and on the other side is

The mouth of Longxi River.

When walking through the floor of a two-story house, a strong, dark-skinned man in his twenties walked out of the house. He looked very honest. When he saw Xiaoyu carrying his luggage, he quickly said hello.

Then he started shouting towards the row of houses opposite.

This person is Ling Yu's younger cousin Ling Chang.

Upon hearing Ling Chang's shouting, a large group of people, old and young, men and women, suddenly poured out from the houses opposite. There were more than 20 people in a row.

Most of them have female surnames. Except for their grandparents and parents, the others are aunts, aunts, sisters, and so on.

Before Ling Yu even walked to the ground, the people running over had already taken his luggage, backpacks, and bags, and they were all asking for help. Their chatter bombarded Ling Yu's eardrums, but Ling Yu enjoyed this feeling very much.

I didn't hear their voices, and I miss them so much now.

After calling them one by one, Ling Yu also entered his home.

"Xiaoyu, you're so thin, aren't you tired from being on the archaeological team?"

Ling Yu's mother Li Xiaoyue brought him a cup of herbal tea and expressed concern.

"fine."

Ling Yu drank the herbal tea and breathed a sigh of relief.

He did not tell anyone about the danger he encountered in the Witch Temple to avoid being bombarded by them.

As the only male of the Ling family's generation, Ling Yu has been treated as a darling by his family since he was a child.

Not to mention his parents, grandparents, but also his uncles, aunts, and uncles, they were very kind to him. There was no way they all gave birth to daughters. In their words, Ling Yu was everyone's son.

Others in the village said that it was a miracle that Ling Yu was not spoiled by his family!

The dinner was very lively. There were more than thirty people, and three tables were set up. The food was so rich that Ling Yu almost swallowed it. He couldn't help it, the food at home was delicious, especially eating with so many relatives.

.

A big family dinner like this will be held whenever Ling Yu comes back, and it has become a routine.

At the dinner table, everyone talked about the sudden flood in Longxi River, and there was a lot of discussion. My grandfather, who had been a wizard, said that it was the anger of the river god.

Of course, most people didn't believe it anymore and scoffed at grandpa's so-called witchcraft and heresies.

Originally, Ling Yu was one of them, but it's different now.

He didn't dare to speak about this matter, after all, he was the one who caused it.

When sleeping at night, Ling Yu continued his devouring work.

After he swallowed Long Xihe's big consciousness, his own green light group changed significantly. It was at least a cubic meter in size, and there were two weak thoughts surrounding him. They existed with each other, did not interfere with each other, and were extremely large.

It enhances the devouring power of Ling Yu's light group.

Now Ling Yu's devouring speed has been greatly enhanced. In one night, he has more than doubled the land he controls. He is only a dozen miles away from Longquan Town. I believe that in a day or two, he will be able to fully control the land.

Control the land hills surrounding Longquan Town.

The next morning, the family was chatting at the door.

Ling Yu was talking about archaeology. Although it was a bit boring, the family members listened with interest.

"Xiaoyu, this is your favorite durian."

Aunt Yu Lian came over with a plate, and a strong smell wafted over.

Ling Yu's eyes were bright, he took a piece from the plate, picked out a seed like egg yolk, took a bite, nodded and said: "Not bad, the meat is thick and delicate... Tingting, don't you want to eat it?"

As he spoke, he looked at his cousin Ling Ting sitting next to him and blinked.

Ling Ting pouted and said, "It stinks so much that I won't eat it!"

"Haha, this should be fragrant. Smell it. It will be your loss if you don't eat it!"

Ling Yu brought the durian seeds to Ling Ting, and Ling Ting immediately covered her nose and ran away: "It stinks to death, it stinks to death, I won't eat it even if you beat me to death..."

Everyone immediately laughed with joy.

After lunch, Ling Yu took a nap for more than an hour, and naturally continued to devour.

In the afternoon, Ling Yu was just about to go out when he saw an old man with white hair and beard walking on the road in front of the ground on crutches, followed by a strong man carrying a wooden box.

"Grandpa, where are you going?"

When Ling Yu saw it, he quickly got up and ran to the old man.

This old man is Ling Yu's grandfather, and he learned all his knowledge about witchcraft from him.

Up to now, the great grandfather is still a very famous wizard in this area. Of course, in modern times, he can no longer be called a wizard, but a Feng Shui master.

Most people would hire him when they build a house, open a factory, or choose a cemetery.

Even the witch temple on Lingshan Mountain invites the grandfather to be the shaman at the annual temple fair.

The strong man following him is his apprentice, the heir he specially trained.

Originally, the great grandfather trained Ling Yu, but unfortunately Ling Yu didn't care about it at all, and Ling Yu's grandfather didn't want him to do this career.

"Well, it's Xiaoyu. When did you come back?"

When the grandfather saw it was Ling Yu, a smile appeared on his old face.

"Yesterday afternoon, I was just going to visit you. Grandpa, where are you and Uncle Qiao going?"

Ling Yu saw the wooden box that Uncle Qiao was carrying and asked.

"I went to Longquan Coal Mine. Something happened there. I heard that something magical happened at the corner of the Longxi River yesterday. The river water backed up and collided with the flood, causing a large amount of water to enter the Longquan Coal Mine. Part of the mine collapsed, so today

Boss Jin of this coal mine sent someone for me to take a look early in the morning."

Grandpa said with a smile.

"Mysterious thing?" Ling Yu was shocked. He didn't expect that his actions would cause an accident in the coal mine, and he didn't know if there were any casualties.

"Yes, it should be that the water veins of the Longxi River were damaged during the mining process of the coal mine, so the river god was angry, hey!"

The grandpa nodded.

At the beginning of the mining of Longxi Coal Mine, he held a mountain worship ceremony.

"Grandpa, I'll go with you."

Ling Yu said that he wanted to know whether anyone was hurt when the mine collapsed.
