Chapter 13 Liu Qingchan (Part 1)

Although he killed the cat demon, it was a pity that Liu Hushan was reckless and careless, and he was eventually killed here.

Ordinary people, unless they are gifted, will find it difficult to cultivate to the Xiantian stage in their lifetime.

As an ordinary person with an ordinary background, Liu Hushan has gone through many hardships and obstacles to become a Xiantian warrior.

It is a pity that he lost his life because of a little recklessness today.

There are five low-level cultivators in the entire Lushan County. Except for the county magistrate Zhang Menggong who is at the second level of Qi training, the remaining four are Xiantian cultivators.

Almost all of the hundreds of thousands of ordinary people near Lushan County practiced martial arts, and only four of them could really break through the Xiantian stage.

From this, we can see how difficult it is for cultivators without spiritual roots.

Zhang Zhixuan sighed in his heart, and then asked everyone to make a simple stretcher and carry the stiff Liu Hushan directly to his home.

After Liu Hushan broke through the Xiantian stage, he served as the patrol officer of Lushan County, and it has been fifteen years now.

In fifteen years, because of the generous salary, he also accumulated a lot of inheritance.

He not only saved 300 acres of fertile land outside the city, but also bought a three-story courtyard in the county town.

Liu Hushan has no brothers, his parents have passed away, and his wife died of dystocia.

Because he has a good relationship with his wife, he did not remarry or take concubines. Except for an eight-year-old daughter, there is no one in charge of the family.

Everyone carried Liu Hushan into the house, and the servants of the Liu family were in chaos in an instant.

Because there was no master, these servants had anticipated the decline of the Liu family. They packed up their belongings, scrambled for the Liu family's floating wealth, and then scattered.

The eight-year-old Miss Liu knelt beside her father's body, holding her father's big hand tightly, tears in her eyes little by little, and none of these Liu family servants took care of their young lady.

Zhang Zhixuan and Zhang Menggong had no time to rest and sent the monster materials to the county government.

Zhang Menggong was originally an apprentice of weapon refinement, and was able to process first-level monster materials and refine first-level magic tools.

The cat monster was a first-level low-grade monster. Its materials were basically useless to Zhang Zhixuan, and he couldn't sell any spirit stones, so he simply gave all these low-level materials to Zhang Menggong to deal with.

As for the remaining cat monster flesh and blood, since Zhang Zhixuan didn't want it, Zhang Menggong also distributed it equally to other innate cultivators such as the county lieutenant and the head of the police.

The best piece of it was left for himself. Anyway, he didn't have Zhang Zhixuan's cleanliness obsession, so he didn't care even if the cat monster had just eaten the hearts of ten people.

After the two of them dealt with the sundries, they went directly to Liu Hushan's house.

Zhang Zhixuan glanced at the lonely and pitiful little girl, and looked at the Liu family servants who fled with all the gold and silver. He frowned and said, "What's going on? It's too outrageous. Liu Hushan died in the line of duty and was considered a meritorious official of the Zhang family. How could there be a servant who dared to bully his master?"

Although Zhang Menggong was the elder of the Zhang family, his voice in the family was far less than that of Zhang Zhixuan. When he saw that Zhang Zhixuan was unhappy, his face suddenly dimmed and he shouted sternly, "Three shifts of yamen runners, quickly arrest these servants and demote them all to mining slaves."

"Does Liu Hushan have any other family members?" Zhang Zhixuan asked.

"No direct relatives, the closest clansmen, the relationship is more than three generations," Zhang Menggong replied.

"Liu Hushan is gone, what should we do with his daughter?"

"We can only let the Liu family adopt her. Inspector Liu left behind a lot of wealth. Since these Liu family members are going to inherit Inspector Liu's property, they will not let a child starve to death. Besides, the government will take care of her more or less." Zhang Menggong sighed.

"Little girl, how old is she this year?" Zhang Zhixuan looked at the child and asked again.

"Although Inspector Liu's child is smart, it's a pity that she can't speak since she was a child. Although she is not stupid, it's a pity that she is a little autistic and pitiful." A soldier who has a good relationship with Liu Hushan answered.

Zhang Zhixuan reached out and touched the top of the girl's head. The girl's delicate little eyes sparkled. She shrank back in fear, then hugged her dead father tightly, and her tears had wet Liu Hushan's clothes.

"What's the name of this child?" Zhang Zhixuan asked.

"The nickname is Qingchan." The soldier answered.

"Boss Liu looks big and strong, but I didn't expect him to give his daughter such a nice name." A soldier under Liu Hushan said.

"Boss Liu can't be said to be illiterate, but he can only recognize a few words. The name was given by a Taoist priest who begged for alms. Eight years ago, the mother passed away when the child was born. At that time, a wandering Taoist priest came and stayed at Boss Liu's house for a few days. He named the child Qingchan." The soldier who had a special relationship with Liu Hushan answered.

Looking at this poor little girl, Zhang Zhixuan felt sad.

The fate of this little girl was very miserable. Her mother died just after she was born. When she was babbling, she became mute. When she just grew up, her last relative also left her.

"Liu Hushan is a very good person. Although we have only met once or twice, he is willing to die to save me today. It's a pity that he didn't survive, otherwise he would be a good friend. Although he was self-indulgent, even if he didn't save me, I could still avoid the magic of the cat demon, but he is just an ordinary mortal and doesn't know much about the methods of cultivators. Her daughter is so young, she will be alone in the future, so I have to take care of her. This child is almost at the age of cultivation. If she has spiritual roots, let her follow me to the mountains to cultivate. If she doesn't have spiritual roots, I will find an honest and reliable family for her in a few years, so that she can live a peaceful and happy life." Looking at the tearful little girl Liu Qingchan, Zhang Zhixuan thought secretly in his heart. Zhang Zhixuan was lonely and helpless in this life, and he felt a little soft-hearted for such a helpless child. So he pretended to be relaxed and said, "I still need a maid to wash clothes and cook. This child looks smart and clever, so let her follow me! Little girl, your father has gone and is going to another world. Don't hold his hand tightly and make him worry when he leaves. You have grown up, you should be more sensible."
