No matter if you are a human or an immortal, you can still farm for me after traveling through time!

Tonight, Yaoshan was not as quiet as the previous few days. Ji Qingyue did not dare to say a word after being woken up.

Faced with the sudden explosion of the bandits' nest, the soldiers stood ready.

They could clearly hear the screams and shouts of the bandits in their camp far away in the forest. It seemed that something unusual had happened to cause them to be so panicked.

Li Erlang heard the noise and quickly climbed to the top of the tree. Through the gap, he saw that the bandits on duty inside the wall were in a panic, and many running figures vaguely flashed through the weakly lit cottage.

He knew clearly in his heart that it must have been something done by Lieutenant General Cao and his soldiers that caused the bandits to become disorganized.

Some bandits stood on the wall angrily and cursed non-stop. Li Erlang listened for a while and found that their curses seemed to be related to water.

Everything was clear now.

The commotion lasted for an hour or two, and Ji Qing became increasingly sleepy and couldn't stand it any longer, so he had to wash his face with a handful of stream water from time to time. In the past, he was a night owl who stayed up all night. It had been less than a year since he time traveled, and now he was used to going to bed early and getting up early. The sudden stay up late was really a bit uncomfortable.

At this time, someone among the soldiers shouted: "The deputy general is back!"

After a while, Vice General Cao led two hundred soldiers who sneaked down the mountain and carried a dozen disgraced people back to the camp.

After Lieutenant General Cao communicated with the centurion on duty to understand the situation, he walked directly to the mountain stronghold with his knife in his hand and shouted to the bandits on the wall: "Are you going to change these dozen people or not?" He pointed at Lian Lian. The dozen bandits captured on Cangshan Mountain are waiting for the answer from the bandits on Juoshan Mountain.

This move caught the bandits off guard. Originally, their leader had been hiding behind the wall and refused to show his face. Now he was so angry that he stood up. An extremely gloomy face was reflected in the firelight. The bandit leader gritted his teeth and wished to kill Cao Cao. The deputy general tore it apart: "General, what a good strategy. It's so good to use it wisely to attack the east and the west!"

Being praised by the enemy, Lieutenant General Cao accepted it humbly: "Thank you for the compliment. Now your water has been cut off. If you don't surrender, we might as well spend a few more days with you!"

The bandit leader quickly calmed down. His gloomy expression was coupled with a sneer, which was a bit strange in the firelight. He screamed: "I just wanted to waste time with you. If you are like those trash from the county government, when the time comes, Why don't you just retreat voluntarily, if you insist on provoking us..."

Just when the people below thought that the bandit leader was crazy, they saw him suddenly looking up to the sky and stretching out his hands, as if performing some ritual, and then he religiously took out a ball from his arms.

Golden light shimmered in the firelight.

That is the legendary copper ball that can kill people!

At this time, Fang Ying'an, who was hiding in the dark, appeared, and now Deputy General Cao squinted behind him, staring at the copper ball.

Li Erlang held on to the tree trunk and poked forward through the sheltering branches, trying to see more details.

They all automatically ignored the bandit leader holding the copper ball, and just stared at the copper ball.

The distance was too far, and Fang Yingan struggled to identify it. The ball was probably the copper ball that appeared in Shandan County. He looked at the bandit leader with a sneer on his face, and suddenly felt certain about this war.

Sure enough, it's still the same trick.

Li Erlang squatted on the tree and stared at the copper ball, and suddenly heard Ji Qingyue calling him softly. "Yue Lang, what's wrong?"

"I have been listening for a long time and it seems that you are not in the camp. Now I dare to ask you if I can come out?"

He also wanted to see how the bandits would play tricks.

Li Erlang looked around. He was at a high place, hidden in the darkness. The people below were all focused on the copper ball, and no one noticed that there was a person lying on the top of the tree.

The night breeze is cool and the leaves rustle.

"There is no one here at this time, Yue Lang, please come out."

After receiving the consent, Ji Qingyue immediately stumbled out of the painting, but before he saw the copper ball, he was almost frightened to death by the height.

"Ah..." Ji Qingyue's scream was muffled by Li Erlang before he left his mouth. He quickly covered Ji Qingyue's mouth and comforted Ji Qingyue softly in the darkness.

Ji Qingyue was not afraid of heights, but he was on the flat ground one second and suddenly climbed up a tree the next. The contrast was too great, which was unacceptable. With the help of Li Erlang, Ji Qingyue reached out and hugged the tree trunk to stabilize his body. After calming down his nervousness, he slowly sat down and looked at the wall side by side with Li Erlang.

Compared with the people at the bottom of the tree, they were staying in the VIP seats. Although they still had to look up, they could see much more clearly.

In the light of the dancing torch, the bandit leader looked crazy and had a ferocious expression. He held up the copper ball and shouted: "Now that I have obtained the copper ball from the immortal, why don't you evacuate quickly!"

The soldiers in the woods below had already drawn their knives and were staring nervously at the copper ball in the bandit's hand, wary of his sudden attack.

Vice Admiral Cao stood up straight with his sword without saying a word, also on guard.

When these bandits saw the copper ball, the admiration in their eyes did not seem to be fake, and they even relaxed a lot. This shows that they all believe that the copper ball can "kill people."

Unless they saw it with their own eyes, they wouldn't be so convinced. The two sides were confronting each other, and the bandits guarding the wall didn't even wear weapons.

Lieutenant General Cao only felt insulted and slighted.

He shouted: "What do you want?"

The bandit leader still had the same condition: "I want Li Changxiang dead!"

"I still said that, it's impossible. Now if we don't fight and surround you in the mountains, we will win in the end." Vice General Cao did not hesitate at all, "Unless you can kill him yourself."

As soon as he finished speaking, both parties looked at the copper ball in the hand of the bandit leader.

The copper ball was held by the bandit leader with his hands folded and protected against his chest.

I saw his lips opening and closing quickly, muttering something, and holding up the copper ball religiously as if he were doing it. Then the two bandits next to him put their hands on the copper ball. When they took it away again, the copper ball floated slowly. rise!

The bandit leader shouted excitedly: "I succeeded again!!"

Seeing the copper ball actually floating from the bandit's hand, the soldier who saw this phenomenon for the first time was filled with shock. His eyes widened and he couldn't believe what he saw.

Some people saw it, and naturally some people gradually believed the rumors.

The copper ball murder is probably real!

At this time, Ji Qingyue, who was on the tree, smiled mockingly to himself. He no longer knew how to explain this ridiculous scene. It was not that he believed that the copper ball could fly out of thin air, but that the performance of the bandits was really funny. , it seems that their leader is really pitiful.

Li Erlang was indeed startled at first glance, but he quickly calmed down. He stared at the flying copper ball intently, trying to find out what was strange about it.

But the light is too dark, and you can't see the magic hidden in it.

Suddenly, a hand touched his neck, seemingly at the right spot. The next moment, he felt warmth in his ears. Ji Qing leaned closer and whispered in his ears.

The charming thoughts passed by in a flash, and Li Erlang was immediately shocked by what Ji Qingyue said.

What "miracles", what kind of copper ball murders, all the mysterious veils were roughly torn off by Ji Qingyue, Li Erlang felt more and more ridiculous. With Ji Qingyue's words in his ears and the copper ball floating in the air in front of him, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch under the impact of one truth and one falsehood, "Yue Lang, is this really true?"

Ji Qingyue couldn't help but laugh when he saw the pious look of the bandit leader. He could only turn his head and lay on Li Erlang's shoulder to avoid looking. He nodded gently: "Yes, that's it. But don't underestimate this kind of thing." Performance relies heavily on coordination.”

Li Erlang was speechless for a while. He admired the owner of the bronze ball, the juggler, but also felt that the bandit leader was really ridiculous.

He took off the bamboo tube on his chest and handed it to Ji Qingyue: "I'll come back as soon as I go. Yue Lang, don't move here."

Ji Qingyue tugged at the corner of Li Erlang's clothes with his backhand: "Hey! Please take me down further! It's too high!"

So Li Erlang took Ji Qingyue down a little, and Ji Qingyue came out and took a look. The height was much better than before.

The more Ji Qing saw what tricks the bandits were playing, he felt relieved and calmly watched Li Erlang slide down the tall tree trunk, slowly walk out of the darkness, and reveal himself in front of the bandits.

He sat on a branch, holding the bamboo tube and supporting the trunk, waiting for the show to begin.

Vice General Cao glanced sideways and saw Li Erlang walking up from the woods with a knife, completely exposed in front of the bandits. He took a slight step back and handed the stage to Li Erlang.

The bandit leader and Li Erlang looked directly at each other, one's eyes were full of hatred, the other was incredibly calm.

The dim firelight swayed and danced in the wind. The copper ball slowly fell back into his hand as the bandit leader closed his hand. The two bandits next to him covered the copper ball and recited a chant.

Li Erlang's eyes couldn't help but fall on the two bandits beside the leader. They looked ordinary, but they turned out to be important supporting roles in Yue Lang's performance.

He raised his lips: "The legal net is wide and open. It is obvious that you have done many evil things, but you resent me. You stole my food and held my young brother hostage. Why can't I kill you? What's the truth?"

"Shut up! If it weren't for you, how could Aaron be sent to the extreme south!" the bandit leader shouted, and then he calmed down and said with a sneer: "Now that I am not well-educated, I can't take your life myself. Don't Hurry, I’ll ask the immortal to come up right now!”

Every time he heard him mention the word "immortal", Li Erlang wanted to laugh, but he couldn't help but retort in his heart: Yue Lang is the immortal.

When the bandits went to shake people, Li Erlang wanted to recall something. He remembered that the man who was knocked unconscious by Ji Qingyue after breaking his hand was called "Along" because he could avoid the death penalty by voluntarily revealing the place where the food was hidden. He fled, and was eventually sent to the extreme south to do hard labor by the county government.

Vice General Cao stood aside with great interest, letting the soldiers behind him waver in their thoughts. After returning to the barracks, additional training was inevitable, and he must train these people to doubt life.

After a while, a man who was obviously well-dressed followed the bandit leader onto the wall. The two "supporting characters" who were originally standing next to the leader now followed the man.

The man is old, but he has a bald head, and his head is as shiny as a copper ball.

His voice was a little old, but very powerful: "Are you the Erlang of the Li family, Li Changxiang?"

Li Erlang held the knife and was ready to deal with emergencies at any time. He replied: "Yes, who are you?"

The first person who responded to him was a burst of sneers. The two people around the man laughed and threatened Li Erlang: "This is the Bronze Ball Immortal who has miraculous powers. If you don't kneel down and beg for mercy, once the Immortal uses his power, you will be decapitated!"

Li Erlang stood with a sword in his hand, raising his head in the light of the fire. His face still looked childish in the light, and his deep eyes were full of perseverance. "Now that we are on the battlefield, how can we be greedy for life and afraid of death? You can use your miracles, but I only believe in the blade in your hand."

The bald man looked at Li Erlang as if he were looking at a body, "Since you want to die, I will give you a ride."

As he spoke, he took back the copper ball that the bandit leader held reverently, put it against his chest and rubbed it in his hands, while muttering something in his mouth.

Suddenly, the copper ball in his hand slowly floated up from the palm of his hand and was two fingers high from the palm of his hand. As his palm slowly lifted up, the copper ball slowly rose higher and higher until it reached his forehead, fluttering from left to right according to his palm.

The leader just controlled the copper ball, but it only just reached his chin, but this "Bronze Ball Immortal" could really control the copper ball flexibly, and even made the copper ball circle around his head.

No matter how surprised everyone under the tree was, Ji Qingyue on the tree wanted to laugh.

During the confrontation, Li Erlang's expression remained unchanged. He ignored the bursts of teasing and surprise behind him and concentrated on it, as if he and the Immortal with the Bronze Ball were the only ones left at this moment.

He stared closely at the bald man on the wall, waiting for the next move.

"scare--"

Amid everyone's exclamations, they saw the copper ball hitting Li Erlang's direction.

Deputy General Cao was disturbed by this sudden move. He raised his feet and moved, trying to rush over and pull Li Erlang away, but Li Erlang stood motionless with his sword in hand, not at all frightened by the strange movement just now.

Seeing the young man's composure, he continued to watch with his hands folded as if he had done nothing. He couldn't help but laugh at himself in his heart. Now he was even worse than a child.

Then, amid the sighs of the crowd, the copper ball only fell two feet and then flew back again, soaring high into the air.

The bald man stared at Li Erlang, his wrinkled face, his eyes as sinister as a poisonous snake: "I have one last chance with you, do you really not beg for mercy?"

The bandits on both sides of him earnestly advised Li Erlang: "If you don't want to end up with your body and head separated, you should beg for mercy from the immortal and the village leader!"

Li Erlang frowned. He thought the fire was not strong enough, so he added another fire: "Can't you kill me?"

When the bald man heard this, he became angry and directed the copper ball to rise and fall continuously, as if he was accumulating power.

The next second, the copper ball really hit him.

Li Erlang raised his sword to block, and Deputy General Cao next to him also stepped forward and struck Li Erlang with his sword at the same time.

"clang--"

"Ding--"

Between the lightning and flint, there was the sound of two different metals colliding with the blade.

Vice General Cao and Li Erlang looked at each other and put down their swords.

The copper ball fell, and the two parties fell into a strange silence.

Ji Qingyue on the tree opened his mouth wider, his heart beating violently. The shocking scene just now, if it were a little later, Li Erlang would...!

After the copper ball made a "ding" sound, it rolled to the ground, hitting several stones and making a sound, and continued to roll down the mountain.

No one dared to pick it up.

Vice General Cao lowered his head to check his blade. There was a new mark left by a shallow scratch on it. He stretched out his feet and turned over on the ground: "Here, this is it."

What fell to the ground was an arrow covered in mud.

Li Erlang smiled contemptuously and asked: "Bronze balls kill people?"

Seeing that his bald head was exposed, he had no time to panic and immediately turned around to escape down the wall. Unexpectedly, he was choked by the bandit leader.

A farce of dog eating dog suddenly unfolded on the fence.

Li Erlang was not interested in this and saluted with a clenched fist towards Vice General Cao: "Thank you, General, for saving your life."

"It's okay. If you hadn't forced and lured them, they wouldn't have used the copper ball trick so early."

The copper ball was picked up at some point and passed to Fang Ying'an. He turned it around to check the hollow copper ball, and sure enough he found different marks on it.

These traces are the key to making the copper ball fly into the air.

When Li Erlang and the others came back, Fang Ying'an asked with certainty: "Have you known the copper ball trick for a long time?"

Li Erlang held the arrow that almost killed him in his hand. The heavy weight and the cold temperature made his heart beat wildly. "Actually, I don't know the specific strangeness of the copper ball. I just believe that nothing in the world can escape that invisible hand. It is impossible for ordinary copper balls to fly."

Fang Ying'an didn't understand what Li Erlang said: "Invisible hand, what is that?"

Li Erlang was trembling after falling into crisis at this time. The emptiness in his arms made him a little uncomfortable. He just wanted to get the painting back quickly: "It's nothing, it's just that I don't believe in these tricks. Mr. Fang, Deputy General Cao, let me go Calm down for a moment."

Lieutenant General Cao had long noticed that his hands were shaking. It was not fear, but an uncontrollable trembling after being extremely excited. Whenever he finished a war, his limbs would uncontrollably tremble, but he was just used to it.

When Li Erlang walked under the tree, Ji Qingyue on the tree got back into the painting, and the bamboo tube instantly lost its support and fell out of thin air.

Li Erlang heard the movement on the tree and was about to look up when he saw the vertical black shadow falling down. So he subconsciously reached out and took the bamboo tube in his hand, and he was hugged by Ji Qingyue who jumped out of the painting.

Now that they are almost the same height, Li Erlang is no longer the fussy little boy he was last year.

Ji Qingyue shook his hands and hugged Li Erlang tightly. He was careless and underestimated this juggler. Naturally, small tricks cannot kill people, but it does not mean that those liars don't have other ways to harm people.

"I'm sorry... I'm sorry...! I didn't know he would do that!"

At this moment, the memory of Li Erlang's death in the second year of Guangde suddenly emerged, overwhelming, making Ji Qing feel more suffocated.

Li Erlang hugged back silently and whispered in Ji Qingyue's ear: "It's okay. I'm okay. Don't worry."

……

"Erlang...?" Someone heard movement from the direction where Li Erlang disappeared, and came to check, only to see Li Erlang standing alone under the tree in a hugging posture.

The visitor was puzzled. There was clearly only one person, so why did it look like he was hugging someone?

Maybe he was really dazzled and saw Li Erlang embracing another person.
