What If I Can't Die? Chapter 693 – Chapter 693 Integration (2)

Chapter 693 Integration (2)

“She can't come here for the time being.” Wuyou shook his head.

Seeing that Song Shi did not look like he was lying, Xu Hongniang was immediately a little disappointed. “Do you need our help? We're very happy to see our family reunited.”

“No need. You can't help.”

Song Shi shook his head.

“If there's really anything, remember to call us. In the future, we'll all be from the same village. Everyone will more or less be willing to help.”

Tie Datou smiled and said, “Don't worry, we're not really xenophobic here. As long as you really want to live in seclusion here, we welcome you.”

They did not take out many spiritual fruits and wine and quickly finished them. The two of them returned in satisfaction. The situation when they brought them back was naturally good. They even spoke up for Song Shi.

“This person's background is not simple. He can actually take out these good things for them to eat.”

“If it were me, my heart would definitely ache.”

“Our resources here are too scarce. We can't compare to a newcomer.”

The others discussed for a while. Other than being dissatisfied that Song Shi had secretly repaired the courtyard at the top of the mountain in advance, they also tacitly agreed that Song Shi could stay and did not cause any trouble.

The next day, Tie Datou ran to the mountainside to open rocks. He specially cut the big rocks into small pieces and carried them over to begin building a stone path for Song Shi.

It could be seen that he was a very trustworthy person and was not joking. He said that he would build a stone path for Song Shi.

He was very strong and could carry a lot of Stones at once. Not only him, but he also called a few other people who were on good terms to help.

When Song Shi realized this, he felt a little embarrassed and personally walked out.

“Datou, there's no need to build a Stone Road. No one will come here anyway.”

“How can that do? We're all from the same village. We have to interact with each other during festive seasons. If you're covered in weeds and there's not a single road, wouldn't that be bad?”

Tie Datou said righteously, “You don't have to care. In any case, I have the strength to do so. I usually don't have much to do. I've already finished hammering the iron for everyone this year. It won't take me much time to repair your road.”

“That's right. The weeds at your door don't look good either.”

“Brother Song, it's obvious that you're not doing manual labor. Just wait for us to get it for you.”

As the others chatted and laughed, they had already begun to remove the weeds on the surface and compact the soil.

Song Shi was helpless. He could only prepare food. He could not possibly get people to work and not give them food and drink.

Originally, he wanted to catch some fish and throw them into the pool, but Song Shi had no choice but to take out something to deal with them to ensure that the road builders would be full.

His food was still good stuff. The other people who were building the road were shocked after eating it.

To them, building roads was physical work and was not worth anything. However, Song Shi took out cultivation resources to reward them.

This comparison showed how sincere Brother Song was. He already treated them as one of his own.

At the end of the day, they explained the situation again. A new day arrived. Song Shi looked at the dozens of people standing outside the courtyard and was rather speechless.

“Why are there so many people here?”

Song Shi glanced at the crowd. More than half of the village was here. If he wanted to prepare food and drink, how much would he have to prepare?

“There's strength in numbers.”

An energetic old man said kindly, “I'm the village chief. Welcome to our Qingsang Village. This is the silk blanket, silk clothes, and other things in the village. It's warm in the winter and cool in the summer. It's not bad.”

Good lord, he even prepared a gift. Song Shi could only accept it with a smile and accept this kindness.

“This is my family's pork. Little brother, try it.”

“We don't have much at home. We made you a few tables. If you want them, you can move them over later.”

“Brother, do you want sour radishes? Our sour radishes are quite delicious.”

“Take these rice. You just came over. It's definitely not convenient for you to eat.”

Not only the village chief, but the others also more or less expressed their goodwill. They were all things made by various families in the village. There were many types and they were indeed self-sufficient.

“Thank you, everyone.”

Song Shi thanked them in unison. Originally, he had a headache that so many people had come over to keep an eye on his cultivation resources. Now that they had given him so many gifts, he could not say anything. He was just thinking too much.

“Everyone, hurry up and get to work. Let's try to get the road done for him in half a month.”

The village chief waved his hand and the group of people moved.

A few children ran up and played nearby for a while before finding Song Shi to listen to him talk about the outside world.

How could Song Shi have anything to say? The cities he went to were only limited to the cities where the Chen family and the Cao family were located. His understanding of the outside world was probably not as good as the others who had been outside.

He could only smile. “If you want to see the outside world, you have to explore it yourself and observe it with your own eyes.”

“Big Brother, tell us. My father and the others don't want us to go out.”

The children surrounded Song Shi and asked. Song Shi felt a headache coming on. It was not appropriate for him to go back and hide when others were repairing the road for him, so he walked towards the stones, “It's meaningless if I tell you. Preserve the suspense.”

With that, Song Shi followed the others to carry stones and moved to the place where the road was built.

“Little brat, are you here to move the stones? If you can't move them, get lost. Don't hit your feet later.”

Tie Datou chased the child away. When he saw Song Shi carrying ten thousand catties of stone, he said, “Brother Song is the capable one.”

The others also revealed looks of admiration. Those who could lift a huge rock weighing ten thousand catties with one hand were not ordinary people. Not many people present could do it.

This young master who did not look imposing was a little unfathomable.

They did not ask further about Song Shi's background. Many people in this village were forced to live in seclusion. It was not easy for them to talk about their past. There were even some people who were evil. Therefore, as long as they wanted to live in seclusion here, everyone tacitly treated them as ordinary people.

Song Shi was very satisfied with this attitude. Compared to the Cao Family who saw his strength and thought of various ways to obtain benefits, these people were the neighbors he wanted.

Those who repaired the road more or less had strength on them. Even though the stones used to repair the road were heavy and the road was steep, the speed at which it was repaired was still very fast.

Song Shi went back to prepare food and drinks after a while so that everyone who helped would not be shortchanged.

Only a week passed. With the help of the entire village, the stone road from the mountainside to Song Shi's courtyard was built by everyone.

The path was made of stone steps that were more than five feet wide. There was a platform every 30 feet that led all the way to Song Shi's courtyard. The stone steps curved under the cover of the trees, giving off a unique feeling.

This road connected Song Shi's courtyard to the village. Although he lived at the top of the mountain and was in a remote location, he was still considered a part of the village.

With this path, after the gifts from dozens of families in the village arrived, the decorations in the courtyard gradually became more enriched.

He raised a few fish in the pool and planted some medicinal herbs in the medicinal field. He also raised a guard dog at the door and chickens, ducks, and geese. These were all given to him by the people in the village.

Song Shi set up an Array Formation, allowing the courtyard to be hidden in the mountain fog without any traces. At the same time, he absorbed the Spiritual Qi of the Savage Desolate Mountain Range behind the mountain to improve the cultivation environment.

Besides cultivating, he would also chat with the villagers. His life could be considered leisurely and carefree.

Half a year passed in the blink of an eye. Song Shi had completely integrated into the village and familiarized himself with everyone in the village. He had also become a mysterious influence in the village.

Other than the children, everyone else realized that he was stronger than anyone in the village. Therefore, they wanted the children in the village to come into contact with Song Shi more and even asked him to help teach them some knowledge.

Song Shi's current cultivation level was more and more inclined to cheat rather than cultivate diligently. If he wanted to cheat, he had to focus on his comprehension. Interacting more with the outside world was beneficial to his comprehension, so Song Shi did not reject these things.

However, his level was too high. Even if he casually guided them, it was still more useful than the guidance of the most powerful person in the village. Unknowingly, these children in the mountains enjoyed something that many descendants of large sects did not.

Under the influence of this benefit, the children in the village had a more solid foundation and their potential was fully stimulated. They had the capital to adventure.

As time passed, these children who yearned for the outside world gradually walked out. While seeing the outside world, they also displayed their talent and became heroes and geniuses.
