Volume 1 Everything starts with raising chickens 2

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Days went on as usual, and the uncle took everyone to mine early in the morning, but unlike before, there was always one person who stayed to look after the house and take care of the eggs.

    Four days later, chicks the size of a fist emerged from their shells.

    There was already a greenhouse on that cliff. The shed was built according to the silkworm houses used for raising silkworms in the south of the Yangtze River. The only difference was that there were pieces of slightly concave bronze mirrors on the top of the shed. This thing is called a Yangsuijing.  It can focus light on one point, and the concentrated light is guided into each shelf by the silver-plated copper tubes on the inner wall, so during the day, the inside of the shed is very bright, and there is no blind spot that cannot be illuminated by light.

    After the chick hatched, it was immediately moved into the shed.

    Two hundred chickens were placed in a wooden frame. A small half of the remaining space was used to raise insects, and the other half was filled with tubes, with holes as thick as an index finger dug out in the tubes.

    Those tubes are another of Xie Xiaoyu¡¯s experiments. He plans to try growing crops without soil.

    There is a kind of medicinal material called fog bellgrass that is incompatible with the five elements. Metal, wood, water, fire and earth cannot touch it, so this medicinal material can only be planted in a pottery tube and then filled with mist.

    Outside the shed, the strange-looking copper kettle was burning on the stove, and drops of clear water kept dripping from the other end of the copper pipe.

    Raising chickens and insects, as well as growing food in the future, all require water. If the water is transported in from outside, it will be too expensive.  While on the giant boat, Xie Xiaoyu had already realized that the key was whether the river water here could be distilled and used?

    After a few days, it proved that his idea worked.

    Chickens, especially chicks, are far more delicate than humans. If humans drink the river water directly, symptoms of weakness will appear after three months, while chicks will have reactions in three days.

    After three days, the chicks are still jumping up and down, not looking like anything is wrong.

    Xie Xiaoyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

    With his mind settled, he no longer worries about these mundane matters. For a monk, strength is the most important thing.

    "The way to practice swordsmanship is not just about meditating. Just having a strong body of Qi is of no use at all. The best thing about swordsmanship is having superb swordsmanship."

    "It's not enough to practice swordsmanship in a dream. No matter how good you practice, it's just sword dancing. The real swordsmanship is the art of killing where life and death are tied by a thread."

    Every morning, before others got up, he had already left the mining area.

    There is a huge waterfall about a dozen miles away.

    There is a stone under the waterfall. This stone has been washed away by the rapid water and becomes extremely slippery. Most people cannot stand on it at all.

    That¡¯s where he practices his sword.

    He was standing on the stone, holding a straight knife in his hand.

    His knife is very long, one foot long, with half of the blade and half of the handle. When not in use, the blade can be retracted into the handle.

    The waterfall was a hundred feet high, and the water fell with an astonishing force, but he didn't care at all and didn't even move his heels.

    ??Gather momentum and gather strength.

    Cut it out with one knife.

    The entire waterfall was cut off in an instant. The half-hanging waterfall fell with a crash, while the other half-hanging waterfall seemed to be frozen in mid-air.

    After several days of hard training, he has mastered the essence of the "like lightning" style. When taking out the sword and putting it back, he can't see the shadow of the sword clearly at all, only the flash of light after the sword passes.

    Regain momentum and gather strength.

    Another stroke of the knife

    He has to swing his sword a thousand times here every day. These thousand blows are not done randomly, but with all his strength, without any reservation.

    This is a martial arts training method, not a monk's sword training method, but the principle is the same. Warriors' understanding of swordsmanship is even better than that of monks, because their swordsmanship is more pure, unlike monks' swordsmanship that is too adulterated.  s things.

    Another swing of the knife came out.

    The waterfall was cut off again.  But this time, a blade of water flew up from the break.

    The passing of the knife is invisible, but the water blade is visible. The water blade flies far away, gradually unfolds, and becomes thinner and thinner.

    When the sunlight passes through the water blade, it is refracted into a neon-like dazzling brilliance.

    This is a beautiful knife.

    But this beauty only lasted for a moment, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

    Xie Xiaoyu stopped and looked at the sky, recalling the flash of the sword just now, as if he had some understanding again.

    "It's a pity that this time it feels like a dream and a bit elusive.

    Suddenly there was a soft "bang" sound in the distance, and a purple smoke cloud filled the eastern sky.Come on, that's a signal for help.

    Xie Xiaoyu is not an enthusiastic person, but after hesitating for a moment, he still ran towards that direction.

    The purple smoke cloud looks like it is just above your head, but in fact it is at least twenty miles away from here. Xie Xiaoyu is not very good at flying and escaping. He only knows a very broad "Land Flying Technique".

    "Land Flying Technique" is known as climbing mountains and wading water as if walking on flat ground, but it only stops there. The speed is only slightly faster than a horse, and it cannot leave the ground.

    He used to know a very fast escape technique, but unfortunately he needed his natal magical weapon to perform it. Now that the magical weapon is gone, this escape technique is completely useless.

    After running for half an hour, he finally arrived.

    There were sounds of beasts roaring and fighting ahead. The trees on the ground were full of broken branches and fallen leaves. Many trees had fallen to the ground. It took two people to hug the thickest tree.

    He followed the sound and ran for another mile. He finally saw seven or eight people in front of him, surrounded by many shadows.

    These shadows look like wolves, dim in color, and blurry in outline, as if shrouded in fog or a series of overlapping shadows.

    That¡¯s a monster.

    Xie Xiaoyu slowed down, he was hesitating.

    Tianbao Prefecture is a land of wealth, but it is also a dangerous place. The most dangerous things are three things - poisonous miasma, barbarians and monsters.  He had already experienced the power of the poisonous miasma, and now he saw the monster again.

    There are also monsters in Middle-earth, but because of the large number of sects and the large population, there are no longer wild lands. Monsters have no place to live and can only survive in places with few people. Therefore, most of them are small in size, move quickly, and do not exist.  The threatening kind.

    The monsters in front of you are different. You can tell at a glance that they are very dangerous.

    The few people who were besieged were not simple. Most of them gathered around the periphery, each holding a sharp knife in their hands. A middle-aged scribe was protected in the middle. It was this man who commanded a magic weapon composed of countless petals to kill the demon wolves.  Blocked out.

    This magical instrument is very beautiful. Thousands of petals surround these people. The petals are flying in circles and rolling randomly.

    Even if this is just a low-grade magic weapon, it is still very rare, because this magic weapon can be used both offensively and defensively.

    It is absolutely impossible for ordinary people to own such a magic weapon.

    He hesitated not only whether he would get involved?  He is still hesitating whether these people are worth saving?

    As the saying goes, "Every person who is righteous will slaughter a dog, and a person who is unkind will become a scholar."  He could safely make friends with people like his uncle, but it was too late for him to be wary of the people in front of him.

    Xie Xiaoyu was hesitating whether to save or leave?  Suddenly I heard the scribe shouting in this direction: "My friend, if you are willing to help me, I will definitely reward you generously."

    Xie Xiaoyu was stunned for a while and looked at the man carefully.

    He understood immediately.

    Next to the man was a short-built guy, holding a compass the size of a mirror in his hand.

    Xie Xiaoyu knew that she had been negligent.

    Tianbao Prefecture is full of high mountains and dense forests. It is rare to see flat land. If you dare to go deep into the inland, you must bring someone with you who knows the positioning of six lines. And if you know the six lines of Yi, you will definitely predict good and bad luck at critical junctures. Such a person  Forget it, just figure him out.

    Since Xing Zang was seen through, Xie Xiaoyu no longer hid and flew out.

    As soon as he moved, two demon wolves rushed towards him.

    Xie Xiaoyu, who was just watching the excitement from the sidelines, didn¡¯t think these things were scary yet, but when he saw them face to face, he immediately knew how powerful they were.

    Originally there were only two demon wolves, but as soon as they got closer, they turned into numerous wolf shadows, at least a thousand in all directions.

    This thing has the ability to transform into thousands of things.

    Xie Xiaoyu quickly pinched the spell with her hands and wiped it on her eyes.

    "The Great Method of Observing the Heaven and Clear the Earth's Cave" is not only used to look at the Qi, it is also the nemesis of various psychedelic techniques.

    Thousands of wolf shadows still exist, but most of them have turned into shadows, looking extremely dim, and their true bodies are immediately revealed.

    He suddenly slid forward, and the long knife in his hand struck out like lightning.

    His sword was one foot long, and the sword was so fast that the demon wolf had no time to dodge.

    The knife leaves no mark.

    The demonic wolf didn¡¯t even feel anything. It was just frightened and took a few steps back.

    As soon as it moved, its body suddenly tilted, and blood spurted out from its neck. A thin blood mark appeared on the neck that originally seemed to be fine.

    In the blink of an eye, a wolf head rolled down.??On the ground.

    The other demon wolf looked up to the sky and roared when he saw his companion being killed.

    The pack of wolves that originally surrounded those people turned around.

    "Go, go quickly, this is the only chance." The scribe who was protected in the middle shouted loudly.

    The people around him seemed to have a tacit understanding and ran away without any hesitation.

    Seeing these people running away, Xie Xiaoyu was so angry that she almost spit out a mouthful of blood.  He came to rescue people, but the rescued people actually used him as bait and backing.

    But he had no time to think about other things at the moment, saving his life was the most important thing.

    His steps slipped again and he slashed out with his sword.

    The knife was still as fast, and the other demon wolf still maintained its posture of looking up to the sky and howling, but its life was gone.

    Swing the knife, swing the knife again.

    Xie Xiaoyu's mind went blank, and waving the knife had already become a subconscious reaction.

    This was what he gained from being locked up with that group of thugs. During the half year in prison and the half year on the floating boat, he didn't dare to sleep at all, because if he slept, he might be violently killed.  He only dared to squint and take a nap, while his body remained ready to take action at any time, and he would immediately fight back if he was attacked.

    That is simply not how people live.

    In the past, he felt miserable and didn't even want to recall that inhuman life, but now he found that this year was not in vain.

    Without that experience, how could he have such an almost instinctive reaction?

    Another swing of the knife came out.

    Another demon wolf fell to the ground.

    The remaining demon wolves no longer dared to approach him and surrounded him from a distance.

    Xie Xiaoyu did not dare to relax at all, and he moved step by step to the open space.

    "These demon wolves are different from ordinary wild wolves. They are very powerful. Even if they have their back against a big tree, they are not safe. Moreover, in the woods, the long sword cannot be used at all."

    In the past, his first thought was to escape, or to take advantage of the terrain. On his way here just now, he saw a cliff. It was a good place, at least he didn't have to worry about being attacked on all sides.  But now, he is willing to fight his way out.

    The experiences of the past year have made him understand the truth. If he wants to live a peaceful life, he must first have the strength to deal with unexpected disasters.

    Suddenly a scream came out from the mouth of one demon wolf, and other demon wolves rushed in from all directions at the same time.

    It is the leader of the wolf pack who gives the orders.  Bullying the minority with more is not just for humans, animals also understand this truth.

    ??

    Those monster wolves are in front and back, and they obviously know that if they line up in a row, they may be killed at once.

    In the blink of an eye, the nearest wolf had already rushed within three feet, and even flew up.

    The knife finally moved. The long and sharp knife cut the air and made a buzzing sound. It was not as shocking as thunder, but it was also terrifying.

    The brilliant sword light connected into one, and an arc of light seemed to surround his body, and all the wolves that flew up were cut off at the waist.

    On the outside of the light arc is a blood ring, which is evenly spread out. It is as thin as paper, but as sharp as a blade.

    The pack of wolves behind hit the blood ring one after another.

    The blood ring is nowhere near as sharp as the blade, but it is enough to cut into the flesh.

    The chaotic footsteps and noisy wolf howls stopped for an instant, with only a series of soft thumps, and wolf corpses fell to the ground.

    Xie Xiaoyu still held the long knife tightly, not daring to relax at all. When he was in prison, he suffered a loss and thought that others had been beaten to the ground by him. Unexpectedly, the man pretended to be dead and took advantage of his opportunity to turn around.  , poked a hole in his chest with a chopstick.

    A sound of metal cracking reached his ears.

    The blade cracked.

    This is not a precious sword, let alone a magic weapon. He spent five taels of silver to have it made by a blacksmith. The material used was just ordinary fine steel.  Just now he used all his strength to slash the sword, and the blade barely withstood it, but the blade was too fragile, so it shattered.

    Looking at the blade that looked like canine teeth, he was secretly glad that the blade shattered after the wolves fell, otherwise he would have been in trouble.

    Ordinary weapons still cannot be used, and a magical sword must be obtained.

    But this also made him a little confused,

    "Liu Rufa" is the art of controlling Qi and moving swords.  The flying sword stretches across thousands of feet and travels for several miles. It is definitely not the kind of swordsmanship that kills everyone within a foot of close combat.??He got a flying sword?  Or get a magic sword that is the same as the fixed sword in your hand?

    If it¡¯s the former, he doesn¡¯t have enough Qi and can¡¯t control it at all.  If it was the latter, he was just learning from martial arts training methods to understand the true meaning of swordsmanship. He had no intention of fighting in close combat, and it would be useless to obtain such a magical sword.
