Among the mountains and forests in this world, there is a very strange mountain. This kind of mountain is usually not very high, only about one or two hundred meters at most. Unlike the mountains and forests elsewhere, this kind of strange mountain is often barren of grass. The whole body is made of rocks.
constituted.
From the outside, this kind of mountain seems to be no different from other mountains and forests except that there are no plants growing on it. But in fact, this kind of mountain is not a dead thing, but a kind of spirit, which is called a monster by people in this world.
It's a stone monster.
Although the stone monster has a very low IQ and cannot evolve into a high-level spirit monster, it is rough-skinned and thick-flesh. It has no special function for the monsters and monsters in the mountains and forests, so it lives a very comfortable life.
Moreover, the stone monster also has the ability to split. When the stone monster grows to a certain size, it can split its body into two. They also rely on this method to reproduce life. However, the spirits and demons do not like stones.
, but this is not the case with humans. Because the body of the stone monster can secrete a smell, which is very unpleasant, but after solidification, it can be used as a secretion for fuel. This secretion is much worse than the fat of the giant whale, but it is
It is enough material for human lighting. Human beings attach great importance to this kind of material that can be called a strategic resource.
The stone monster itself has no attack ability and defense, making it even more vulnerable to a warrior. Even a martial artist can easily cut open the stone monster's outer skin with a chisel. So I want to get secretions from the stone monster.
It is a very simple thing. Due to the flammable nature of the secretions in the body of the stone monster, you only need to break open the mountain stone on the outside of the stone monster, then light a torch, and wait for the stone monster to obediently let the secretions flow.
come out.
Although the stone monster has low intelligence, it also knows that torches can threaten its own life. In order to survive, it will spare no effort to force the secretions out of the body. Usually you only need to find a stone monster, and then carve out a circle of outer rocks on the edge of the mountain.
The fuel made from the secretions of a stone monster is enough to power a giant city where a million people live for a year. However, stone is easy to obtain from the secretions of a stone monster, and the places where stone monsters often grow are in deep mountains.
A team that wants to enter the mountains to hunt for stone monsters must be composed of martial artists, and usually there will be military commanders holding the line.
In the deep mountains far away from Sunjiacun, there are many stone monsters. Every time the team goes to hunt for the secretion of stone monsters, they will basically pass by Sunjiacun, and they will also replenish some supplies here.
The transportation of the fuel secreted by a stone monster requires hundreds of carriages, that is, an entire team of five divisions, to carry the solidified secretion out of the mountains and forests and deliver it to the carriage. Whether it is people or horses
, basically have to stay in Sunjiacun. There is so much solidified secretion, just scraping it off a little is enough. Sunjiacun has been using it for several years.
That's why Sunjia Village can light up the talisman lanterns every night. If it were another village, I'm afraid they would have to hide them in the cellar of their home at night and seal the entrance to the cellar.
Outside the cities of this world, most ordinary people spend their nights underground, because only by hiding underground can we avoid the spirits and demons?
Therefore, before building a house and laying the foundation in this world, a space is usually dug out more than ten meters underground, and then the ground construction is started after ventilation is done. Sunjiacun is no exception, even if there are talisman lanterns now.
It protects the entire village at night. Many people are still used to going underground to rest at night, so that they can sleep more peacefully.
There is also a basement in the yard where Su Xiaofan lives, which is almost as big as the building on the ground.
Therefore, Su Xiaofan is not worried about being seen by others when it comes to the energy stones in wooden boxes all over the house. After returning from this patrol, he will transfer all the energy stones to the underground secret room.
Looking through the memories of the clone, it was like watching a movie. There were still some differences between veiling the Yin God with his own hands. Su Xiaofan had just killed a Yin God with his own hands and couldn't help but compare it with the scene in his memory.
It is difficult for humans to survive in this Uighur space. Looking through the memories in his mind, Su Xiaofan shook his head slightly. He was different from his clone. When the clone was sucked into the black hole, he was unconscious, but Su Xiaofan was always awake. He came in
.So Su Xiaofan knows that not only does this planet exist
The entire dimensional space in the black hole is filled with evil spirits. If the problem of evil spirits cannot be solved, Su Xiaofan will have no chance of escaping from this space.
Su Xiaofan was thinking while patrolling the village with a few people.
The night outside the lanterns looks particularly cold and dark, and only the light emitted by the talisman lanterns can make people feel a little warm. Except for the place that was destroyed by the Yin God, the rest of the talisman lanterns are intact. After walking for a while,
After the circle, Su Xiaofan returned to his residential yard. From the clone's memory, he found the entrance to the cellar of the yard. Su Xiaofan left eighteen wooden boxes containing energy stones and collected all the remaining 3,100 energy stones.
It was placed in the cellar. The night had not yet dissipated, but Su Xiaofan's patrol mission was gone. When dawn was approaching, ghosts and ghosts rarely appeared.
After such an experience, the clone had already spent two or three hundred years, and Su Xiaofan, who had completely integrated the clone's memories, was not in a hurry. He sat quietly in the room, pondering over the Nine-Nine Mysterious Technique that he had deduced. Compared to the cultivator's technique,
There is also Su Xiaofan's ancient cultivation method clone. He feels that only the Nine-Nine Mysterious Gong evolved from the Eight-Nine Mysterious Gong that tempers the physical body, can it be possible to refine the evil spirit in this dimension. It's just that practicing the Nine-Nine Mysterious Gong requires spreading the power.
The process is too risky. If there is even the slightest mistake, Su Xiaofan's physical body will be destroyed. Even if his soul is still alive, he may have no choice but to become a Yin Shen.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Regarding this world with strange rules, Su Xiaofan has no confidence at all if he transforms into a Yin Shen soul. If he loses his memory of his life, Su Xiaofan will feel that he is worse than himself.
Death comes quickly.
Don't rush to practice again, just perfect the technique first.
Hundreds of years have passed. Su Xiaofan is not in a hurry. This is a matter of life and death for Su Xiaofan, and there is no room for carelessness.
Back in the room, Su Xiaofan took out a wall lamp hanging on the wall. At this time, the sky was already bright outside. Su Xiaofan placed the wall lamp under the sun. The lighting tool used around the village was a talisman lantern. But in the house
If conditions permit, this kind of wall lamp is usually used.
The material used in this kind of wall lamp is called sunstone, which is a kind of mineral and is taken from deep mountains and rivers. Sunstone has a special characteristic, that is, as long as it is exposed to the sun for a few hours during the day, it will emit light at night.
For the light of illumination.
Yangshi has many advantages. It automatically removes light and does not emit the peculiar smell of fuel lamps. Just don’t forget to take it outside to dry in the sun every day. In Su Xiaofan’s opinion, this Yangshi is a bit like the solar energy of scientific and technological civilization.
The only disadvantage is that the light storage time of sunstone is a bit short, usually only enough for one night use.
But even so, the price of lamps made of sunstone is very high. Ordinary people and villagers cannot afford it. Only families of warriors can afford such things.
Su Xiaofan saw from his memory that the clone's life in this village was basically recuperating. Except for patrolling with people at night, he spent most of his time during the day basking in the sun and wandering around.
The clone originally had the same temperament as Su Xiaofan, and Su Xiaofan's original self followed suit. He sat down directly on the lounge chair in the yard.
Haste makes waste in everything. Although Su Xiaofan believed in his clone's understanding and judgment of the world, he still wanted to experience some things in person before making a decision.
Is Mr. Qingshan here? A knock on the door sounded from outside the courtyard.
It's Brother Sun.
Well, Sun Liang is here too, come in.
Su Xiaofan stood up and opened the courtyard door. A man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties was standing in front of the courtyard with Sun Liang. Su Xiaofan knew that non-dancers in this world generally looked very old. In fact, Sun Liang's father was not yet young.
By the age of forty, you already look like you are in your twilight years.
Su Xiaofan's clone showed that he was in his thirties, so he called the other person "big brother" and turned to let the two of them into the yard.
Mr. Qingshan, we won’t go in.
Sun Liang's father showed great respect for the descendants of the Su family, and he did not have many interactions with them on weekdays, and was quite reserved in his words.
Master Qingshan, I brought Sun Liang here to ask you to help him protect the law. I wonder if you have time.
Sun Liang's father rushed to
The son winked. Sun Liang quickly stepped forward, holding a package in both hands, and handed it to Su Xiaofan.
Mr. Qingshan, this is a mattress made from the skin of a demonic wolf I hunted last year.
Sun Liang had obviously never done anything like this before. He was stumbling over his words and held the package in front of Su Xiaofan's chest.
Okay, I'll accept it. Su Xiaofan nodded.
In this world, there is no love for no reason. If you want to get help from a warrior, you need to pay an equivalent reward. Of course, compared to Su Xiaofan, a wolf skin mattress is not enough. But Su Xiaofan knows that this
It's the best thing the other party can bring out, so naturally they won't care.
Sorry for the trouble, Mr. Qingshan.
Sun Liang's father looked at Su Xiaofan with a grateful expression. He knew that if he invited a lion dancer from the city, even if his family went bankrupt, he might not be able to come up with a gift to reward the martial artist. That's not to say that he couldn't be paid.
Warriors will not come to protect the law, they will come. But after Sun Liang is promoted, he will have to make up for this gift of thanks.
If someone in the village is promoted to a martial arts master, it can also enhance the strength of the village. Su Xiaofan waved his hand disapprovingly. As a child of Sunjia Village, he has been blessed by Sunjia Village since he was a child. After becoming a warrior, he must repay Sunjia Village.
People like Sun Liang who are promoted to martial arts masters must first stay in Sunjia Village for three years before going out to explore. This is a rule set by Su Xiaofan's clone. For two to three hundred years, no one dares to violate it.
During the hundreds of years Su Xiaofan was here, Su Xiaofan would leave Sunjiacun from time to time. During the time he was away, it was the promoted martial arts masters of Sunjiacun who were protecting their home.
