Shendou Continent

Chapter 67 Set foot on Penglai
Under the leadership of the old man, they chartered a boat to an island in the outer sea.

However, along the way, the old man sealed Deming's five senses, making him lose direction and feeling, and the seal was released only after the boat left.After going to the island, the old man took out a flute from his spiritual storage bag and began to play it. The resonant sound of the flute seemed to be propelled by a powerful soul force, and it floated far away.After a while, several flying white cranes were attracted. The main body of the white crane's feathers is white, the tail and head are somewhat black, and the top of the head is red.

Then, the old man talked with the largest crane among the group.The crane seemed to understand what he meant, and then called "Ah... ah..." to the group of companions beside him, long and short, as if they were communicating.Soon, two more cranes flew out from the group of cranes. The old man and Lu Ke motioned for Deming to sit on the back of one of them, and Lu Ke sat on the back of the other crane as a demonstration. Lin You sat on the back of the crane that had exchanged with him earlier.

"Well, I'm afraid of heights." Deming said with some embarrassment.

"Hehe, as a fighter, you have to overcome this by yourself." The old man said to Deming with a smile.

"Haha, don't be afraid, it's the same way I sat for the first time, close your eyes, and you'll be there soon." Lu Ke also comforted.

There is no way, and now Deming can only bite the bullet and go on.

Soon, the three cranes spread their wings and flew high. Dai Ming sat on the spirit bird for the first time. When the crane took off, he hugged its neck tightly. drop down.The crane soared into the sky, which made him scream "ah" and "ah", but fortunately, he held the crane's body tightly with both hands. Although it was bumpy, he did not fall.

Lu Ke was a little worried, but Lu Jianyi continued to laugh, but he patted his mount, as if to let it slow down, and flew beside Deming to prevent accidents.

After a while, the crane took them to Mount Penglai.After arriving at the fairy mountain, Dai Ming had no intention of admiring it, so he jumped off the crane and just vomited wildly. This experience was unforgettable for him.Thinking of this Penglai fairy mountain, entering the mountain is so scary, no wonder it is so easy not to show it to others.After he calmed down, Dai Ming began to pay attention to this fairy mountain.

This Penglai fairy mountain is indeed in the sea off Haizhou, but its position is not fixed, it is indeed floating like the Shan Hai Jing said, and it has been floating between the sea off Haizhou and the sea off Yanzhou all the year round. The current time, because of Depending on the direction of the wind and currents, Mount Penglai is near Haizhou.It's no wonder that the Penglai found in the Shan Hai Jing must still be near Yanzhou, but the Shan Hai Jing said that it "always floats up and down with the tide", so Dai Ming knew why he made a mistake before. Up and down, unexpectedly left and right, even drifting so far, hundreds of miles of sea.

The fairy mountain has existed for countless years, surrounded by fairy mist, it is extremely difficult to find, even if you get close, you will often get lost, so it has always been difficult to find the fairy mountain.But letting the crane lead the way is the most effective way. The spirit bird has its own sense of direction and has its own guide.

Penglai Mountain is full of flowers and fruits, lush and lush, and peach blossoms are even more blooming in the current season.Most of the fruit trees are flat peach trees and litchi trees.The flesh of this lychee is translucent and creamy, resembling pearls and jade. The "tree of pearls and gantry" mentioned in the Shan Hai Jing mostly refers to the lychee tree. This lychee is also "full of flowers and fruits", but "eating it" cannot "Never grow old and never die".There is Ganoderma lucidum fairy grass on the mountain, and the rare ten-thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum in the mainland is here. This is a magical product that nourishes and strengthens, strengthens the body, and is also one of the refining materials of the Shenhai Pill among the three pills of the soul.There are also some spirit beasts on the mountain, besides the Penglai cranes who are good at soaring in the nine heavens, there are also many common spirit beasts such as spirit monkeys and rabbits.

There used to be god fighters who lived and practiced here, but not now.In the whole mountain, apart from Elder Lu and Lu Ke of the Holy See, there was only one old woman who took care of daily life.

The environment like Xianshan is very suitable for cultivation, as if the ten-color spar has been opened here, the improvement speed of fighters is much faster than that on the mainland.Therefore, it is more possible to break through to a saint fighter or a god fighter here than in the mainland.It's just that once this place is discovered by outsiders, the blessed land of the fairy family is very easy to be destroyed, so it has always been extremely hidden, so Elder Lu would not easily bring outsiders up the mountain.This time, for the sake of my granddaughter, it was rare to bring two people with me at once.

This place of Penglai Mountain is not small, its radius is similar to that of Qingyun Peak of Wuyunmen.Lu Ke and the others lived in very simple and simple accommodation in Penglai. There was a fenced yard on the platform halfway up the mountain. In the yard, there were seven thatched houses in two rows. It is a hut, and there are three bedrooms in the back row, which are the bedrooms of Nanny Wang, Elder Lu and Lu Ke. Elder Lu's bedroom and the hall are connected by a corridor, and there is another utility room in the corner of the back row.There are several acres of cropland not far in front of the yard. It is the season of sowing. Looking at the densely packed fields, it is obvious that someone has already taken care of them.

Suddenly there were two more people, and the room was naturally not enough.Fortunately, it was not difficult to build the thatched cottage. Lin You was temporarily placed in the living room. Elder Lu assigned Dai Ming a task to build two rooms in the shortest possible time for himself and Lin to use.Elder Lu also gave Deming some tools for logging and building a house, briefly taught him the methods of selecting timber and building, and told him where to log and pick grass.

Deming took the ax and quickly cut more than a dozen pieces of wood, and sawed them into logs of equal height. After trimming and leveling, some of them were used as piles and some as beams.He used a chisel to chisel out grooves for butt-joint beams above the piles, trimmed the ends of the beams, and polished the tenons.Then, he determined a rectangular site in the yard, and then used a sledgehammer to drive the trimmed piles into the four corners to fix them, and then inserted four beams into the grooves above the piles to build a house frame.Then, he determined two base points at the same distance from the beams on one side of the frame, and then drove two more piles here, and inserted three beams above.In this way, the foundation of the two rooms was laid. A fighter with a level 41 soul power starts to build a house, and his skills are undeniable.

Next, Deming sawed thick trees and made some horizontal and vertical wooden strips, polished them to level off, and then used wooden nails to attach them to the four sides of the frame to make walls.Then, he set up an inclined tripod on the side to prepare as a roof, and installed horizontal and vertical wooden strips on both sides of the roof, and reserved grooves and tenons on the foundation wood and the tripod.Then, he went to find thatch, and prepared to compact the thatch again, simply tie it with thatch poles, and spread it around and on both sides of the roof.Finally, just attach the triangular roof trusses to the previously constructed frame for the roof.In this way, the simple thatched house is set up.In order to make the thatched house stronger, he plans to find sisal hemp, cut off the leaves, find a large wooden basin, fill it with water, soak it in this container, and wait for the strands in the sisal hemp to separate out and dry in the sun It can be used to weave hemp rope, which can be used to strengthen the thatch on the house in the future.As for the bed, the extra thatch can be dealt with first, and it will depend on the situation in the future whether it is necessary to learn from a carpenter to make beds, tables and chairs.

In this way, Deming started his career as a "carpenter" in Penglai Xianshan.
