Okay, Okay, I’ll Take the Credit, Right?

Chapter 31 Direction to Maojia Valley

Su Chen was thinking in his mind which direction to go.

 While thinking about it, I remembered what Mr. Ji Sheng said to me before.

The area of ​​Maojia Valley is one that cannot be approached by oneself.

 There is a strong person slaying monsters in that area. If you get close, you may accidentally injure yourself.

Su Chen has seen the description of that area in books.

Maojia Valley used to be a village.

 The terrain is a depression.

But more than two hundred years ago, this area was completely deserted after being attacked by monsters.

 The name of the place has remained, but the area has been swallowed up into the wilderness.

 Looking at the classics, it says that there are earth demons and even celestial demons in that area.

 In the records, the appearance of the sky demon several times was in that area.

Su Chen had some doubts in his heart.

Maojia Valley is more than fifty miles away from the defense line of Tiangang City.

 So far away, even if there are traces of monsters, so what?

 That distance will not have any impact on Tiangang City or the people of Da Zhou.

 However, these strong men still chose to go there.

They say they are going to slay demons, but are they really slaying demons?

Even their appearance may drive the monsters from Maojia Valley to Tiangang City.

Su Chen had some doubts in his heart.

From the perspective of preventing monsters from attacking the Great Zhou Dynasty, going to the direction of Maojiagu to slay the monsters will have little effect.

If you didn’t go there to slay demons, then why?

There are some guesses in my heart.

 There may be something in the Maojia Valley area.

Thinking of this, Su Chen was not impulsive and continued to make plans patiently.

Mr. Ji Sheng is a very proud person. If he can be called a strong person, his strength should not be underestimated.

The strength of those people, not surprisingly, is at least the fifth level of Snow Concept.

 It may even be in the fourth grade.

 The fourth grade is called Huajing.

  Simplify the complex and try to put everything into one place.

Your own strength will be greatly improved, far exceeding the fifth level.

Although the improvement is huge, it is still difficult to reach the fourth level.

 The road to spiritual practice, the two most obvious dividing lines.

 The first one is to move from the eighth-level refinement realm to the seventh-level Huaigu realm.

This step seems simple, but it really stops a lot of people.

 From tempering the body to experiencing the state of mind, many people who don’t have enough understanding will get stuck here.

 The bottleneck will remain stuck for twenty or even thirty years.

 A person only reaches the seventh level in middle age, and there is not much room for improvement in this life.

 The other most obvious dividing line is the fourth-level realm.

 The ninth level of body refining refines the body, the eighth level of essence refining condenses the constitution into essence.

 The seventh level is the Huaigu realm, the sixth level is the mountain furnace realm, and the fifth level is the snow realm.

 Overcoming the hurdles of the state of mind is the fourth level of transformation.

 Being able to enter the Hua Realm, he was already a famous and powerful person in the Zhou Dynasty.

Even people like Sun Xuerong, the fifth elder of the Yunyang Sect, who are already elders, are still only at the fifth level of Snow Perfection, one step short of reaching the fourth level.

If you really want to visit Maojia Valley, you can’t go there at will.

 You must be alert enough and safe enough before you try your luck.

 Based on the preliminary plan, Su Chen decided to go to the south first.

 The area to the south is said to contain many rare medicinal materials.

 In the book, the southern wilderness was even given a name: Dazhou Medicine Garden.

  That is to say, there are many types of medicinal materials and they are abundant.

Su Chen had a plan in mind and decided to go south to Tiangang City first.

 Look at the harvest in the south and see if there are any opportunities.

If all conditions are suitable, then try Maojia Valley.

 Having worked out the plan clearly in his mind, Su Chen was ready to take action as soon as possible. At the end of this year's New Year, I have already told my sister A-niang that I will not go back.

This outing can be regarded as an experience, and it can be regarded as earning some resources and money for myself.

 In addition to using it for myself, it can also help my little sister live a rich life.

 Get a big bag ready and buy some dry food in the city.

 Dry food is mainly portable and easy to store, and Su Chen didn’t care about its taste.

Anyway, I didn’t come from a royal family, so I wouldn’t say I disliked it and couldn’t eat it.

 Going out for training, as long as it can fill your stomach.

 After everything was ready, Su Chen walked south alone.

 Outside the city, as long as it has not been swept away, a layer of white snow has been covered.

 Actually, this amount of snow is not that big.

It’s just a shallow layer.

 In past years, when it snowed heavily, the snow could easily reach the ankles.

 All the way south, [Monster Hunting Pioneer] destiny is also activated.

Although the activities of monsters decrease in winter, you still need to be vigilant when it’s time to be vigilant.

After crossing the defense line of Tiangang City, further south, it seemed that the number of people suddenly decreased.

 Outside the defense line, obviously more plants can be seen.

Many plants have only bare branches left, but looking at these branches crowded together, it seems that you can feel how dense it is here in spring and summer.

 Generally speaking, among the people of Dazhou, no one can jump over the defense line.

Su Chen did not hesitate and continued to go south.

 There is actually another technique for looking for medicinal materials in winter, which Aniang taught me.

I used to rely on this technique when looking for wild vegetables in winter with my mother-in-law.

 Most plants do not like cold.

Even if it grows in winter, many choose a slightly warmer location as much as possible.

 One of the important reasons for the coldness in winter is the cold wind.

 So in that kind of depression, it is the preferred location of the plant.

 In the past, a lot of wild vegetables could be found using this method.

If you don’t have a suitable place to go in your heart for the time being, then start by looking for a depression.

 Looking up, there is a slightly higher mountain peak in the distance.

Climbing high and looking into the distance, Su Chen stepped forward, preparing to go to higher ground and see where there was a depression.

With the strength of the eighth-level refining middle realm, it is extremely easy to climb a small mountain.

 But on the way up, Su Chen had to pay attention to his surroundings and be on guard against the appearance of monsters.

 Two quarters of an hour later, we reached the top of the mountain.

 Looking up, looking for a depression.

 In the wilderness, there are still some plants that have not lost their leaves and have withstood the cold winter.

 However, there are relatively few such plants, and most of them are deciduous plants.

 There seems to be a depression on my left hand side.

Su Chen briefly memorized the surrounding landforms and walked towards the depression.

This year’s snow is not deep, and it’s not even deep enough to cover your calves.

 Soon, Su Chen came to the depression he had just discovered.

This place is almost thirty miles away from the defense line of Tiangang City.

 This distance is actually quite deep.

If it is summer time, I am afraid that you will encounter a monster within three or two steps.

 The further away from the defense line, the fewer people will come.

 The possibility of those medicinal materials being picked is lower.

 Many herb collectors are experienced, but their abilities are average and they don’t have the guts to enter this position.

Su Chen tried to push the snow away and began to search.

There are indeed many herbs hidden under the snow.

 Some were just weeds, but soon, Su Chen discovered a medicinal plant, white pine grass.

Continue to push away more snow, and there are four tufts of white pine grass growing here.
