When they arrived at the backyard, Su Baozhang approached and asked, "What did Mr. Muramasa say?"
Yang Junshan waved his hand and said helplessly: "My father doesn't really believe it!"
"Then what are you going to do?" Su Baozhang asked.
Yang Junshan thought for a while and said: "Brother Baozhang, I need your help with something!"
Su Baozhang perked up and said, "Just say whatever you want!"
Yang Junshan took out five jade coins from the bag, thought about it and took out two more, and said: "Brother Baozhang, stay a while and I will give you a list. You can buy the things on it for me in the past two days."
It’s all done, remember, you have to memorize everything on the list, and buy things separately, so don’t let anyone notice it.”
Su Baozhang looked surprised when he saw Yang Junshan take out seven jade coins at once. He had never seen so much money in his life. He hesitated and said: "Isn't this too much? Mr. Muramasa arranged it."
Something?"
Obviously, Su Baozhang didn't think that Yang Junshan should have so many jade coins. Yang Junshan had to say: "My father knows this, and he left it to me. You just need to buy it according to the list I gave you, and these jade coins
It may not be enough.”
At night, Yang Junshan took the red rusty rough stone that An Xia left to him in his house and prepared to dissect it.
Unraveling the stone is not an easy task. The raw red rust stone is extremely hard because it contains a trace of refined iron. Moreover, if you are not careful during the process of unraveling the stone, you may damage the spiritual jade inside.
However, Yang Junshan had his own special method. He first used a carving knife to carve a few simple runes on the surface of the original stone, and then injected his spiritual power into these runes. At the moment when the runes were activated,
, a "click-click" sound came, and cracks appeared on the surface of the original stone.
Yang Junshan took the original stone in his hand and rubbed it hard, and actually rubbed a layer of gravel off the surface of the original stone that was not full of cracks. After opening the spiritual orifice, Yang Junshan's strength increased again, otherwise he would not have chosen
This method of removing stones with bare hands can better protect the spiritual jade contained inside because it does not require the use of other tools.
After this layer of gravel was crushed, there was still a layer of original stone inside. Yang Junshan had to carve the rune patterns again, and then cut the stone with his bare hands. He repeated this process three times, and a layer of dense luster was finally revealed after the gravel pieces fell off.
Yang Junshan wiped a handful of sweat from his forehead and said, "It's not bad. If I untie it any longer, there won't be much spiritual jade left."
After half a night of hard work, Yang Junshan had four more jade coins in his pocket the next day. Watching from a distance his parents leading the beast of burden to the foot of the West Mountain early in the morning, Yang Junshan could only sigh helplessly. The locust plague
My father obviously didn't take it to heart. What's more, even my mother has advanced to the martial arts realm. I am afraid that my father will be safe even if he encounters a locust plague.
Not only the two of them have put all their energy into the cultivation of the third-level middle-grade spiritual fields, but also the other two warrior realm monks in the village. They must seize the time to cultivate the newly opened spiritual fields before the spiritual valley matures.
Cultivate it, wait until the spiritual grain is harvested, and then sow it together.
Entering my father's room, there was an iron-tied long bow hanging on the wall. It was the seven-stone iron-tied strong bow that Yang Tiangang had used before. However, after he advanced to the warrior realm, this bow was rarely used in the room.
I took it off.
Taking off the long bow and holding it in his hand, Yang Junshan felt his hand sink. The weight of this iron tire bow was enough to weigh twenty or thirty kilograms. The thin bow string was shining with crystal luster. It was obviously not a mortal thing. With his hand, he
Pulling, the long bow slowly opened. Compared with this bow, the three-stone carved bow that Yang Junshan used before was like noodles.
Seeing that there was an arrow pot filled with arrows next to the long bow, Yang Junshan took off the arrow pot and looked at it, secretly thinking that he was lucky, the thirty arrows inside were all made of hundreds of refined iron.
, each arrow shaft and arrowhead is engraved with simple runes, and with the seven-stone longbow assault, it can even penetrate the monk's spell shield.
Putting the long bow diagonally across his back, Yang Junshan said secretly: "Dad, you are cheating on me, this long bow, um, and this pot of hundred-refined talisman arrows. My son, I will take it without telling you!"
In the Pomegranate Forest Lingquan Cave, Huniu had woken up and was tearing apart the mountain rabbits and pheasants left by Yang Junshan. Although she still looked gloomy, knowing how to eat clearly showed that she was recovering well.
The spiritual energy emerging from the eyes of Lingquan has recovered a lot compared to yesterday, but it still has not returned to its original state. After patting Huniu's head, Yang Junshan ordered: "I have to go out in the next two days.
Far away, you have to stay here alone to recuperate and practice. I will leave you enough food. Don't run around while you are injured, and wait for me to come back."
Huniu screamed "Woo", as if she was protesting, and even wanted to stand up, but her seriously injured body didn't have much strength, so she could only lie on the ground and look at Yang Junshan aggrievedly.
"Don't worry, I will take you out to play when you get better!"
He picked up a dozen spiritual energy pebbles spread on the ground and took them with him. After leaving the cave, Yang Junshan headed south. If his memory from his previous life was correct, this locust plague came from the south and then swept across it.
Most of Yu County's Linggu production has been reduced by half.
Mengyu County has five towns and one county seat. The southernmost one is Huangshan Town, and the southernmost one of Huangshan Town is Shanman Village. Shanman Village is located at the foot of Quwu Mountain, and Quwu Mountain is both Mengyu County and Yu County.
It is the junction of Jinyu County and the junction of Yu County and Zhang County.
After the giant locust plague occurred in the previous life, among the six counties in Yu County, Mengyu County and Jinyu County were the hardest hit, and the giant locust swarms came from the south. However, Zhang County, which borders the southern part of Yu County, was also affected by the locust plague.
, but the area affected by the disaster is extremely small. Therefore, in Yang Junshan's opinion, the biggest suspicion is that the origin of the giant locust plague is in Quwu Mountain.
Yang Junshan came all the way south. After entering Huangshan Town, he saw several grain trucks carrying Linggu heading towards the grass market in the town, and there were also vacant grain trucks heading from the town to various villages.
.
When he arrived outside Deshanman Village, Yang Junshan saw two more grain trucks leaving the village. Unable to suppress his curiosity, Yang Junshan stepped forward and asked a middle-aged man driving the trucks: "Uncle, what's going on here?"
Where will the spirit valley be sent?"
The driver looked at Yang Junshan warily and saw that he was only a half-year-old child. He relaxed and said, "You are not from this village, are you?"
Yang Junshan pointed to the long bow behind his back and said: "I am learning to hunt. I heard from my father that Quwu Mountain has the most prey, so I wanted to go in and have a look, but along the way I saw many grain trucks transporting Linggu to the town.
When I went up, I was curious and wanted to ask."
When the driver heard that Yang Junshan was going to Quwu Mountain, he quickly waved his hand and kindly advised: "Young man, Quwu Mountain is no better than other places. It has high mountains and dense forests, and it is at the border with Jinyu County and Zhang County. Although
There are a lot of prey, but there are also a lot of ferocious beasts, and even ferocious beasts occasionally appear. Those old hunters have to be careful when entering and exiting Quwu Mountain. Seeing that you are not old, you must have just learned to hunt. It is not a place for you to go.
."
Yang Junshan blinked and said, "Uncle, you haven't told me why there are so many grain trucks?"
The driver smiled and said: "Of course it's to sell Linggu! Some people in the town are harvesting Linggu at a high price. This year is good, and the Linggu in the fields is growing well. It looks like it will be another good harvest year, and the price of food will definitely fall by then.
, taking advantage of the good price of grain at this time, I quickly sold the old grain at home to make room for new grain."
Yang Junshan thought for a while and then asked: "Uncle, who is collecting grain in the town? Is it the Shaotian Sect, or is it the county, or a powerful and famous family in the county?"
The driver shook his head and said: "I don't know about this. They are all new faces anyway, but since the guard has agreed to them collecting grain, there is no problem with their identity."
Yang Junshan said "Huh". Since even the guards of Huangshan Town knew about this matter, there should be no problem. So could it be that Shaotian Sect was secretly harvesting grain? Thinking of the red rust rough stone, Yang Junshan
I secretly wonder if the Shaking Sky Sect needs a large amount of jade coins to purchase Linggu?
However, he quickly denied this idea. If the Shaking Sky Sect needed to acquire Linggu, it could be done in the entire county. However, Huangtu Town, where Yang Junshan was located, had obviously never heard of the acquisition of Linggu at a high price.
Yang Junshan always felt that there was something fishy about the people who purchased Linggu in Huangshan Town this time. Moreover, Yang Junshan saw grain trucks transporting Linggu in many villages in Huangshan Town along the way. He was afraid that it was not the surplus grain in the hands of Linggu farmers in Huangshan Town.
Seven or eight of them were acquired.
Thinking of the huge locust plague that followed and the spiritual valleys in the spiritual fields were eaten away before they were harvested, Yang Junshan looked at the acquisition of spiritual valleys in Zaishanshan Town as if it was a poisonous plan to drain the bottom of the cauldron.
Thinking of this, Yang Junshan reminded again: "Uncle, I walked all the way from the north and found that grasshoppers and locusts were swarming in the wilderness. I am afraid there will be a locust plague this year. So many spiritual valleys have been sold. If there is a disaster,
What to do if there is a disaster?"
The driver sneered: "You kid, what's so scary about the locust plague? There's no village without one or two martial arts monks. When everyone joins forces, we can wipe out most of the locust plague..."
Yang Junshan was very familiar with this view of the locust plague. Whether it was Yang Tiangang, Su Baozhang, or other people in Tuqiu Village, they all had basically the same view as the driver when they heard about the locust plague.
"Then what if this year's locust plague is so severe that even the warrior-level monks can't be killed?"
"Can't you kill all the monks in the warrior realm?" The driver seemed to have heard a joke and said, "Is it possible that a group of ferocious beasts will fly in?"
Aren't they just a group of ferocious beasts? Although the strength of a single giant locust may be far inferior to that of the mountain rat, but an overwhelming swarm will attack them. Who can withstand it?
Yang Junshan tried to remind the driver not to sell Linggu in a hurry, and the driver also tried to remind Yang Junshan not to go deep into Quwu Mountain, but the result was that neither party listened to the advice of the other and should go to the grain seller in the town.
Keep going, and those who want to go to Quwu Mountain never stop.
