Martial Arts: Start by Obtaining the Wild World

Chapter 218 0217: Mole Beast Transformation; Entering the Mountain
The mountain breeze blows gently, and the afterglow of the setting sun shines on the small village in the mountains.

The golden light shines through the layers of trees, covering this quiet little village with a soft golden veil.

As the grain from the threshing ground was stored in the warehouse, the construction work stopped, everyone went home, and Chengjia Village gradually fell into a peaceful time.

In the open space in front of the Cheng family's house in Hanoi, several children were playing and fighting. Their laughter, together with the crisp laughter of some children from other families outside the river, echoed in the air, and intertwined with the gurgling sound of the river protected by railings, forming a natural symphony.

Several elders and brothers and sisters were looking at the running children with gentle eyes. Several figures were busy in the kitchen, and the smell of food could be smelled.

As the children were called back, they washed their hands and faces and sat around the wooden table waiting, but they were also arguing about something with a smile on their faces.

Zhou Zhenhua, who is only seven years old from my uncle's family, always likes to use his lack of knowledge and vocabulary to convince others with reason, but he is always embarrassed by his other brothers and sisters.

Although they were arguing with each other, they all sat in their own seats and no longer ran around.

As night gradually fell, Cheng Zongyang and others brought out home-cooked dishes and placed them on three round tables, two large and one small, in the yard.

The table was filled with steaming vegetables, chicken, duck, fish, lamb, pork, etc., and everyone started eating together amidst laughter and chatter.

The adults drank and talked about farming, and the children ate with gusto, not paying attention to what the adults talked about, just focusing on eating. The whole courtyard was filled with an atmosphere of happiness and peace.

This happy scene with no worries about food and drink is played out in almost every household.

under night.

The night wind is blowing gently, and the stars are twinkling. Chengjia Village, which is almost isolated from the world, enjoys the tranquility of a paradise.

After the family dinner, the four families enjoyed the moon and the cool air in front of the courtyard.

Although it is not yet true summer, there is no mountain breeze tonight, but it is a little more stuffy.

"It looks like it will be windy tomorrow. There is still some millet left to dry in the village."

Zhou Hansong looked at the moonlight. Although the moonlight was bright, the moon halo was hazy and soft, and dark clouds blocked the moonlight from time to time. Under this intermittent moonlight, the shadows of the trees in the village swayed, and the shadows of people flickered, which seemed to add a bit of mystery.

Zhou Hanchang also took a look, stood up and touched the wall of the house to see the condition of the graphite, and smiled: "Don't worry, there is not much moisture. It shouldn't rain. There is not much millet left, and even if it rains, it won't rain that soon."

Seeing this, Cheng Zongyang, who was standing by, knew that this was the life experience of their older generation, and did not think much about it, but asked: "Uncle, has Brother Zhenyuan's wedding date been changed?"

Zhou Hansong smiled when he heard this. Even his aunt Zhou Ye smiled a little more. Without Zhou Hansong saying anything, Zhou Ye took the initiative to say:
"Changed. There are a lot of things going on in the village during this period, such as rice harvest, drying millet, firing bricks and tiles, and building new village houses, so your uncle wanted to postpone the wedding for some time. Waiting until the new house in the village is built before getting married will be a double happiness."

Cheng Zongyang looked at Zhou Zhendong who was a little embarrassed and said with a smile: "Cousin, you are not in a hurry, right?"

After hearing what Cheng Zongyang said, Zhou Zhenyuan felt even more embarrassed and responded honestly: "Don't worry, don't worry."

"Hahaha." Cheng Guanghai and others all burst into laughter.

Zhou Zhenyuan blushed and rolled his eyes at Cheng Zongyang, then immediately hit back: "Zongyang, what about you? You are sixteen, you can get married."

Suddenly, everyone's attention shifted to Cheng Zongyang.

The smile would not disappear, it would only shift. It shifted to Zhou Zhenyuan's face.

"Haha, you know, I have a lot of things to do, and it's too early to leave." Cheng Zongyang changed the subject and said, "This time when I come back, I have to stay for a while and take care of some things."

As he said this, he took out two fire stones from his arms.

One is a fire spirit stone taken from Lu Yan's boxing gloves, which has lost its fire essence; the other is a fire crystal stone cut from a market hut, which still has fire essence and is warm to the touch, like a pebble exposed to the sun.

He placed the two small stones on the table and said, "This is one of the things. Pick it up and feel it for yourself."

Immediately, everyone's attention was diverted.

Cheng Guanghai took it first and was surprised when he touched it. He looked at the one in his right hand and asked, "Why is this one hot?"

He looked at his left hand again: "This one is cold. Is it so strange?"

"Let me try it." Cheng Guangshan said.

Cheng Guanghai handed the two stones to Cheng Guangshan.

After a round of feeling, everyone's eyes fell on Cheng Zongyang.

Cheng Zongyang said with a serious expression: "These two things are called Fire Essence Stones, which means spirit. Their source is the fireball that fell from the sky last year. The source of the fireball is a monster..."

Cheng Zongyang informed everyone about the Fiery Sun Bird, then returned to the Fire Spirit Stone and said:

"Someone is buying it at a high price. It's worth a lot of money. We want this kind of Fire Essence Stone, whether it's cold or hot! So, uncle, starting tomorrow, send some people to look for it near the pit where the stone fell."

"Since it is so important, I will arrange some manpower." Zhou Hansong nodded.

Cheng Zongyang looked at Zhou Hanchang at this time: "Uncle, is the thing that the monkey gave you still there?"

Zhou Hanchang had a deep memory of this. After all, the first time he was given a gift by a mountain creature, he kept it at home. He replied, "I remember. Could that be a Fire Essence Stone as well?"

Cheng Zongyang nodded: "It's almost certain. It should have fallen when the Fiery Sun Bird first fell into Tianduan Mountain, and was later picked up by the monkey."

"I'll go back and get it." Upon hearing this, Zhou Hanchang immediately got up and went home.

"What is the use of this thing?" Cheng Guangshan asked curiously.

Cheng Zongyang couldn't explain that he sold it to the market hut, so he could only say:

"This thing is also a top-level forging material. Therefore, some families, chambers of commerce, and large chambers of commerce outside are buying it at high prices."

At this point, Cheng Chen, who was in charge of the warehouse and village tasks, said, "If that's the case, then I'll join the task and publish it, so some people will come looking for it."

Cheng Zongyang nodded: "This is a good idea."

Soon, Zhou Hanchang came back with the thing.

He handed the stone to Cheng Zongyang, who examined it and nodded after a moment, saying, "It is indeed a Fire Essence Stone, but it no longer has the Fire Essence. But it can still be sold for a little money."

Everyone nodded when they heard this. Cheng Guanghai said:

"Then let's publish it as a task. Let those who enter the mountain keep an eye out for it. Just now Zong Yang said that this thing usually falls into those earth pits, so it should be easier to find. Just look around the earth pits and you should be able to find it. You can remind them of this when publishing the task."

Cheng Chen nodded and said, "Okay. I'll write a sign to remind you."

After Cheng Zongyang reported the matter, he asked about the minerals.

"I heard that copper mines and the like were found. Have you found gold and silver mines or the like?"

Gold and silver were important to the expansion and development of his wilderness world, and equally important to the development of the county.

Therefore, the urgent need for these two minerals is also very high. Of course, copper and iron are also good, but relative to their value, it is better to look for gold and silver mines.

The mining of copper and iron ore requires too many people, and the population of Chengjia Village is only four or five hundred. Asking them to mine is simply a torture, and it is meaningless. "No." Cheng Guanghai shook his head and said, "I once asked the mole beast to search near the gold mining site, but I didn't find it. I guess the gold sand was washed out and accumulated in the river channel, and there is no fixed mineral point. But now the channel is basically completed, and we can spare time to search."

Cheng Zongyang said, "Leave it to me. I have some things to do in the mountains, which are extremely important for the development of the family. If we really find something, our family will develop faster and stronger in the future."

Cheng Zongyang also began to lay the groundwork for taking out some things from the wilderness world in the future, such as the soul-gathering monument and the future demand for gold and silver.

Tianduan Mountain is so huge that it is not surprising to find some strange and weird things there.

Hearing this, everyone was puzzled. Zhou Hansong asked, "What's the matter? Is there any treasure in the mountain?"

Cheng Zongyang shook his head: "There is a foggy area in Tianduan Mountain. Some of the things I brought back were picked up from the edge of that area.

There are a lot of good things there, but it is also quite dangerous. So this time I came back and decided to go there and see what good things I can bring out. I always feel that there must be some big secrets in the mountains. "

Everyone heard this and did not doubt this statement. First, what Cheng Zongyang took out was indeed a bit strange, just like the animal skin scroll of the Immortal Ancestor's Oath; second, it was a magnet.

Coupled with the existence of the Fire Spirit Stone and the monster, they were even more convinced of it.

"Since it is so dangerous, why don't we not go for the time being? It won't be too late to go after our strength has improved and there are more people." Cheng Guanghai frowned.

The principle behind this strange thing is unclear. If it had not had no effect on the villagers so far, how would they dare to use it?
Cheng Zongyang shook his head and said, "No, I have to hurry up. The forces in the county have already settled in, and there will be more and more people in the future.

They wanted to earn more profits. In addition to normal business development, they also wanted to develop the nearby Tianduan Mountain. Tianduan Mountain had too many resources. Although it was extremely dangerous, it could not be stopped. This Fire Essence Stone was one of their goals.

If this continues, even though Chengjia Village has the protection of the geomagnetic stone, it will not be able to stop warriors above the third rank. It is only a matter of time before they are discovered. So we need to find a stronger defense. "

Everyone was silent again.

"Alas, it's because we are not strong enough, otherwise we wouldn't always let you be like this." Cheng Guanghai sighed.

Cheng Zongyang smiled and said, "It's all for the family, and everyone has their own division of labor."

"Okay then." Cheng Guanghai said, "You have to be careful."

Cheng Zhou opened her mouth but didn't say anything. She knew that her son was no longer just her son, but also the future patriarch of the Cheng family. This was his responsibility.

After discussing these three things, everyone continued to talk about Tianduan Village.

Time passed in a flash. Three days passed.

Cheng Zongyang had a good rest for three days and basically understood the new situation in the village. He also checked the geomagnetic stone that protected the village.

Basically no problem.

The current construction materials are all made by craftsmen from the engineering department, and there is an abundance of raw materials in the mountains, so there is no shortage of them.

During these three days, I also sorted out and understood the family tree, and I have a rough idea of ​​the number of animal skin scrolls signed.

Similarly, we are also planning what to do after entering the mountains.

On the morning of the third day, Cheng Zongyang took the mole alone and let the mole carry a large backpack into the mountains.

The time for this trip into the mountains was tentatively scheduled to be seven days, during which he would let the mole beast search for gold and silver mines.

At the same time, when we go back, we will bring some things back to make them believe that there are secrets and good things in the mountains.

As for what to bring, I'll make plans later.

After entering the forest and getting far away from the village, they sent the large backpack on the mole's back into the wilderness.

Cheng Zongyang looked at the two-meter-tall mole beast and smiled. In the past three days, he also learned from his family how many red blood pills this guy had eaten. Almost five or six pills a day.

If it weren't for the rapid cultivation method of Red Jade Ganoderma, it really wouldn't be able to supply it. Of course, the main reason was to feed its appetite. Apart from Red Blood Pills and exotic beast meat, it actually refused to eat anything else.

But there are many Red Blood Pills in the Wild World, and Cheng Zongyang is not afraid of it eating five or six pills a day.

However, the benefits are also obvious. Although the height of the mole beast has not changed much, he has taken the mole beast into the market hut for identification, and changes have also occurred.

Mole Beast

Introduction: An ordinary little mole mutated after integrating with the orc spirit, strengthening its body and abilities. However, it was unable to withstand the impact of the orc spirit, lost its self-awareness, and only obeyed orders.

Grade: ★★☆
Species: Exotic
talent:

①: Soil control, which can affect the soil structure within 1.5 meters around;
②: Beast strength, a natural ability from the orc spirit, can lift objects 35 times its own weight;
(Note: Talents can be improved as one's body is strengthened.)
ability:

①: Digging in the mountains and the ground. The claws have been strengthened and almost have the ability to split mountains and rocks;

②: Super senses. The originally sensitive sense of smell and hearing have become even more powerful after being strengthened. It can distinguish the direction of all smells and the location of the target within a radius of 3.5 kilometers. The super hearing can even sense the movement of underground creatures. Therefore, it can often avoid danger in advance.

-

The grade of the mole beast has been raised by half a level, and its talent and abilities have also been improved a little.

This is why Cheng Zongyang is not stingy about giving it more food in the future. If he continues to cultivate it, there may be some surprises.

Going into the mountains, Cheng Zongyang came to a cave.

"Wait for me here." Cheng Zongyang shouted to the mole, took out a purse and put it on his body, then walked to the entrance of the cave and moved aside the huge rock that was blocking the entrance to block the sound.

This is where he imprisoned more than forty warriors.

Of course, the original space was not enough. During these three days, he took the mole into the mountain and made a larger cave that was more suitable for living.

They had grain-nourishing pills to eat and spring water to drink, and there was also a toilet, which was enough for them to live here for a long time until Ma Yue returned the intermediate soul crystals that had reached the required level one by one.

The cave is protected by two geomagnetic stones. No one can walk out of the 50-meter-long passage, and no one or animal dares to approach it.

As for He Shuijun and Liu Chengdong, the sixth and seventh rank warriors, they were left in the wilderness world by Cheng Zongyang.

Someone was watching them, and when the time was right, they were given a sip of wild bean water. Every three days, they were fed grain-tonifying pills and water, which was enough to keep them in a long-term coma without starving to death.

The appearance of Cheng Zongyang instantly shut up the noisy warriors.

Cheng Zongyang ignored them, left the internal tonic pills in the box and left again.

There were a lot of internal tonic pills left this time, enough for them to live for a month without replenishment, unless they committed suicide or went on a hunger strike.

Although they could stay in the wilderness world, there were too many people and it would be a waste of wilderness beans.
