Lord of the Nine Realms

Chapter 22 Sweep (Thanks for Reward)
The mutton on the shelf was already sizzling with oil. Even though there was no salt, he still ate it: he could eat it, but if he ate too much, he would vomit.

This is Chen Yuansheng's first meal as a commoner. From today on, he will start fighting to become a lord.

After eating the barbecue, he lay down by the lake for a drink of water, and Chen Yuansheng began to arrange today's tasks.

"Er Falcon continues to search the Warcraft territory, trying to find a blacksmith who can be traded as soon as possible. In the future, not only will we trade iron tools and weapons, but we will also need to exchange clothes, salt, etc. from him."

"The Demon Camel went to the desert for a walk. One was looking for those mutated plants, and the other was discovering advanced spiritual plants. Once you find them, remember the approximate location. I will dig them out myself later."

"The dragon lizard and the demon wolf are following me to demolish the houses. On the way here, I saw many abandoned villages. Most of the houses collapsed. Let's go take a look and tear down the usable beams, bricks and stones to build houses."

"If it's not enough, I'll cut down the trees later."

Everyone had no objections and completely obeyed Chen Yuansheng's arrangements, especially the demon wolf. He raised his head and said "oow", and within a short time, more than twenty sand wolves came running.

The beasts split up and Chen Yuansheng rode on the dragon lizard and led the sand wolf straight to the first village twenty miles away.

This village has been abandoned for at least 30 years, and almost all the houses have collapsed. However, thanks to the dry climate of the desert, most of the beams can still be used. Chen Yuansheng even found that some wooden windows can also be used.

"Tear it down, tear this one down first."

Chen Yuansheng was about to go up shirtless, when the huge body of the dragon lizard next to him threw himself into a tiger pounce, knocking down a house with only half a wall left.

The smoke and dust filled the air, and it took five minutes for it to gradually dissipate.

Chen Yuansheng covered his nose and walked over from a distance. The dragon lizard had already taken out seven beams more than three meters long and twenty centimeters in diameter with its big mouth.

"Okay, these can basically be used."

Although these beams are dry and cracked, they are generally intact and can be used directly after being carried back.

"Ow..."

A wolf howled not far away. Chen Yuansheng told the dragon lizard to continue demolishing the house, and he ran towards the place where the wolf howled.

The sand wolves were scattered around the village looking for useful things. Their noses were very useful, so they had obviously discovered something.

Chen Yuansheng entered a courtyard that had collapsed so much that only its outline could be seen. There was a one-meter-tall sand wolf squatting in front of a newly dug pit, pretending to have made a great contribution.

Judging from the structure of the outline, the place where the sand wolf squatted should have been the kitchen. In the pit were two round-bellied yellow clay pots with black edges. The one on the left was damaged, and the one on the right was covered with a wooden lid.

Chen Yuansheng opened it and saw that there was half a jar of crystallized gray-white coarse salt inside.

"Good thing, Dahui, you have made a great contribution."

Chen Yuansheng touched Sand Wolf's head excitedly. Salt is of course important, but jars are also important: "Keep looking and find similar things. Try not to damage them."

"what……"

Sand Wolf clucked his tongue and nodded vigorously, looking like he had a high IQ.

"I'll name you Big Big Wolf. Before I left the desert, I will advance you into a first-level spirit beast."

"what……"

Big Big Wolf became more and more excited and stuck out his tongue longer.

Bang bang bang... The dragon lizard violently demolished the house, and the sand wolves dug holes everywhere. Chen Yuansheng followed the dragon lizard, picking out the window lattice, stones and bricks that could still be used, and placing them individually.

After about two hours, this small village with only about thirty households was completely looted.

As the saying goes, a man is poor but his ambition is short, and a horse is skinny and has long hair.

Looking at the pile of rags spread out in front of him, Chen Yuansheng's eyes became wet with excitement, and tears fell on his feet.

There are more than twenty functional beams.Dozens of broken beams that can also be recycled.

Hundreds of rafters.

Two half-broken window lattice.

Six water tanks of different sizes.

Two tables with mottled leather and drawers but missing legs.

Two lame benches.

A chair with missing legs and no seat.

A copper oil lamp.

A leaky cauldron, a dozen barely usable pots, plates, and pottery bowls.

Hundreds of bricks and stones.

"With these things, at least there is a home atmosphere."

But then Chen Yuansheng got a headache again, because there was a practical problem in front of him: how to transport it?

This place is more than twenty miles away from the small lake. At his speed, a round trip would take half a day, not to mention that it would be almost time to transport all the wood and water tanks for the New Year.

Probably seeing Chen Yuansheng's entanglement, the dragon lizard came over and said: "Boss Chen, just leave these things here for now. We should go to the next village to clean up now. When the number is almost the same, we will ask the surrounding beasts for help. Just ship it.”

The reason why the dragon lizard also calls Chen Yuansheng the boss is because of the advice given by the demon camel: In terms of age, Chen Yuansheng is the oldest among our group of beasts, so we can call him boss from now on.

The dragon lizard and the demon wolf followed suit, and Chen Yuansheng became the boss of course.

Chen Yuansheng nodded and hid some fragile jars and dishes in a corner of the earth wall, mainly because he was afraid that wild beasts would pass by and damage them. Then he rode the dragon lizard and headed straight to the next abandoned village.

…………

The setting sun shines in the evening, and the distant mountains are winding.

Under the setting sun, Chen Yuansheng sat weakly on the back of the dragon lizard, holding two clay pots.

Followed by more than twenty sand wolves, none of these sand wolves were idle. Some had rafters in their mouths, some had bricks in their mouths, and some had plates in their mouths. The tallest demon wolf had a handle in its mouth. Half pull the hoe.

In the words of Mr. Chen, this is called "Thieves never leave empty-handed". After a busy day, you always have to bring something back.

Today they "swept" three villages and turned out a lot of junk, but Chen Yuansheng felt that it was not enough and decided to do another day of raiding tomorrow.

There were still a few miles away from the small lake, when two falcons flew over from low altitude, shouting as they flew: "Wow, wow, wow! You have gained a lot, you are rich, you are rich!"

No one paid attention to it, not even Chen Yuansheng bothered to look at it.

After putting down his things, Chen Yuansheng first went to the lake to drink water, and finally came to the big tree, where he barbecued and listened to what the Er Falcon and the Demon Camel had gained.

"There are not many mutated plants within fifty miles nearby, but a hundred miles to the southwest, there are more mutated plants, but there are also many mutated beasts."

"If we want to go, it won't be possible for just the two of us. It would be best if both the dragon lizard and the demon wolf follow."

"Lingzhi doesn't talk much, but there is. I found an advanced 'Prickly Armor' today. It's a very big one. I'm afraid it's 80 to [-] years old, but it's slightly polluted. Some leaves It's turned red."

"We also found a small-leaf red thorn tree, which should be a spiritual plant. It's such a big tree. There is a group of camels living in that area. Their leader has advanced to bronze. If we want to transplant it, we may have to conflict with them. .”

　Thank you to the boss of "Plain Water 202" for the tip.
