In this battle in the mountains to the east, the human race can be said to have won a complete victory.
Victory brings not only the psychological satisfaction of settling down again, but also tangible benefits.
A large number of corpses of spirits and beasts were transported back to the city one after another. Those who participated in the war either went to rest or to bandage and recuperate, and the work of handling these corpses was all left to the young men in the city. common people.
No, not only young men and women, but also many children who appear to be only about ten years old are also able to help skillfully.
The corpse of the spirit is of great use. First of all, the blood cannot be wasted. To protect the pillars around the city, to maintain the best effect, the spell must be redrawn every fifteen days.
The materials used are all monster blood, cinnabar, sulfur, etc.
As for the fur, bones, and tendons of the monsters, they can all be used to make magic weapons. These do not require much processing by the people in the city. They only need to classify those that release corrosive venom. Open, just put the other bodies in a dry and cool place.
Every once in a while, there will be a chamber of commerce that cooperates with the military to purchase such things in exchange for money to purchase food, clothing, medicine, etc. needed by the people in the city.
Although those beasts have not yet reached the rank of spirits, the blood, bone and skin of the larger ones have their own uses, and the smaller ones can be taken home by the people and used as food storage.
No matter how big or small, the meat of such beasts has a very strong fishy smell. It is impossible for the nine counties of the East China Sea to have so many seasonings for people to use to prepare food.
But when the common people who came to help received the rewards in exchange for these wild beasts, they were very happy on their thin faces.
Su Hanshan walked among these workshops converted from dilapidated houses and said: "We have brought a lot of food and grass, and we will ask Brother Liu to arrange the dispatch and see how to distribute it."< br>
Dongfang Xin had already collected the Qingyun scroll into a roll and carried it behind his back. When he heard this, he took the scroll into his hand again and unfolded it a little.
Liu Qichi used his true energy to probe into it, and his face was filled with joy: "There are so many, great!"
On the eve of the outbreak of the demon country's chaos, the counties adjacent to the nine counties of the East China Sea , large or small turmoil broke out in almost all cases.
After that, even if various counties were arranged to rush to help, it would be difficult to achieve a large scale.
Liu Qichi had originally heard that Xueling was also in a big trouble at that time, but he didn't expect that it was settled so quickly, leaving a rich family fortune, and now he is so generous.
However, a generous move means a big picture.
I heard that Situ Yuntao is a very ambitious person, and he probably wants to take this opportunity to take root in Shanyang County.
“Situ Yuntao has built a divine palace, and behind him is Tiandu Liaoyuan Peak. I heard that he also has contacts with General Shenwei, which is a good backer...”
Liu Qichi secretly thought in his heart, seeing that troubled times were coming, it would not hurt if he made friends with one more force.
He just happened to see an old man with wide sleeves and a hunchback in the distance, cooking a large row of medicine cans in the yard, so he smiled and said hello.
"Old Nie, come on, come on, let me introduce these two people to you."
The old man was the successor of the Painting Soul Tao who previously released the beast from the painting and affected the battlefield. It turned out to be His name is Nie Feiying.
The girl who is following him is called Nie Ling'er, and she is his granddaughter.
The grandfather and grandson are proficient in medical skills, and are especially good at using poisonous parts of spirits as medicine.
The warriors in the city often used their trophies to exchange medicine soup with the grandfather and grandson. Nie Feiying would not refuse anyone who came, so he was very popular.
Liu Qi Chi is also very optimistic about the grandfather and grandson, and intends to win over them. Now they just want to have a meal together.
However, after Nie Feiying came to meet him, he just exchanged greetings, thanked him a few times, and then made a request.
"You two, that Xiahou must be your subordinate, right?"
Nie Feiying coughed dryly, "He is brave in fighting and a strong general, but he is always hanging around in our yard, which affects our medicine."
Su Hanshan had already seen Xiahou helping with work in the yard. .
But Xiahou was nimble with his hands and feet. It seemed that every time when Nie Linger wanted to take something, Xiahou had already handed it to her before she even opened her mouth.
I don’t know if it’s because cooking and boiling medicine have something in common, or if he has learned medical skills in addition, but with him there, the efficiency of boiling medicine will obviously only increase.
“Isn’t this a good job?”
Liu Qi Chi was a little confused, "Old Nie, the secret of your prescription lies mainly in how you deal with those poisonous spirits and monsters. Others have different techniques from yours and cannot learn from them. The processing ratio of these ordinary medicinal materials is not the same anyway. What's the secret? Why are you so resistant to others' help? "
It's not like there aren't others in Quan City who come to help occasionally, and Nie Feiying has never rejected them.
Nie Feiying looked a little embarrassed.
That boy does look good in everything. He is obviously dressed as a hunter, but he also looks polite and courteous.
But as an elder, Nie Feiying had an unreasonable intuition in his heart that he didn't want to see that boy with his granddaughter.
"Haha!"
Su Hanshan suddenly laughed and said, "Xiahou, I have an errand here, are you interested?"
Xiahou looked up, turned around and said goodbye to Nie Ling'er , he walked out of the courtyard naturally and acted as usual.
No one could tell whether he had any special thoughts for that little girl.
When Nie Feiying saw this look, he wondered if he had been too sensitive before.
"Senior Nie, Master Dongfang, Senior Su."
Xia Hou greeted Liu Qichi one by one and bowed his hand, "Senior Su, do you have any instructions?"
Su Hanshan took off his right hand. The copper bracelet he wore, said: "The demon clan altar ruins east of the main city are a little strange, but we personally inspected them and couldn't find anything wrong with them."
< br>"I wonder if it is because our strength is too high and we have triggered some means of self-protection and self-hiding, so I want to ask you to take a look."
"You take this bracelet and put it on Look at all the demon altar sites in the city, hold up the bracelet, record the surrounding scenes, and return them to me.”
While Su Hanshan was talking, he taught Xiahou a set of seals that could be used to control the five thunder centering circles and record the video.
"As a reward, I have stored a set of boxing techniques in this bracelet. If you reverse the set of seals just now, you can watch the specific secret image."
"Especially In the Heaven Ladder Realm, this boxing technique is particularly useful.”
Getting a set of Heaven Ladder Boxing Techniques for such a simple task is a waste of money.
Xiahou had a look of surprise on his face, took the Five Thunder Centering Circle, and repeatedly promised that he would go to each altar site as soon as possible to complete the mission.
Liu Qichi also asked someone to get a map, mark out the various altar sites, and give it to him.
Dongfang Xin asked doubtfully: "Your concerns are reasonable, but even if you have to send someone to check, you can also send someone who is familiar with the local geography?"
"Maybe the locals have been there for a long time. In this feng shui of war and demons, it is not suitable to be in this position. Spy."
Su Hanshan said with a smile, "As for the other people we brought, they are not more familiar with the terrain than Xia Hou. It is fate that we met him, so we might as well let him go."
Without further ado, after accepting the map, Xiahou set off directly.
As if impatient, Xiahou slowed down after leaving the sight of Su Hanshan and the others, and first used the seal method in reverse to trigger the boxing image in the centering circle of five thunders.
"Five internal organs fighting technique?"
Xia Hou looked quite focused on the surface. Although he was not so excited in his heart, he was indeed a little surprised.
This boxing technique uses a small amount of flexible Qi to touch specific acupuncture points to stimulate emotions and injure the five internal organs.
People in the Heavenly Ladder realm have generally not tempered their internal organs, so it is indeed extremely easy to be restrained by this kind of boxing. But judging from the connotation of this set of boxing techniques, even if it reaches the true state, it is an excellent means to disturb the enemy in fierce battles.
The reason why it cannot be rated higher is not because the concept of boxing is not advanced enough, but because this set of boxing secrets does not involve any content used to form a mysterious fetus.
The path of movement is not consistent with the state of Xuantai masters who directly use Xuantai as the greatest source of power.
“You just asked me to run an errand and record a video, and you are going to give me this kind of reward?”
“But this man seems to be young, and I heard he is Situ Yuntao’s junior brother. Is it normal for someone like Tiandu Xianfu to have such a talent since childhood?”
Xiahou did not think about this matter for too long. His mind was more occupied by another matter.
When he inquired about the news from the Nie family’s grandson before, he had already learned how the sheep-headed demon appeared.
“It must be related to the Seventy-two Springs Treasure!”
“According to what I heard in my previous life, the Seventy-two Springs Treasure contains not only a large number of machine puppets, but also a huge number of The puppet soul core, that is the puppet The source of power is also the central component that processes various commands. "
"The process of possessing the idol and making it act is actually somewhat similar to that of the machine puppet."
"Only the extremely pure aura of the puppet spirit core can directly activate a demon statue without any sacrifice."
"It's probably that the treasure space is no longer stable enough, and accidentally outwards Leaked a little energy... ...It also means that the person who opened the treasure has probably returned to Middle-earth, maybe in the next two days..."
Xiahou finished watching the boxing images in the copper bracelet and grabbed the bracelet. , hurried out of the city, still thinking in my heart.
Find a way to remind Su Hanshan about the treasure?
It would be a matter of course for me to come out and check out the altar ruins. If I find anything, it would be a matter of course.
However, when he came to Quancheng in his previous life, the treasure had already been opened and evacuated, and the formation space where the treasure was stored had disappeared.
Other than knowing that the treasure space is related to the Seventy-Two Springs, he doesn’t know any more clues, and he may not be able to find out anything this time.
Then find a way to get Master, Linger, and Lao Nie to leave Quancheng recently?
Xia Hou had so many things in his mind, he decided to see if he could find any clues first.
He was very good at light work. He spent a day and a half walking through the ruins of the demon altar in Quancheng, surveying them carefully and recording them.
Unfortunately, he found no clear evidence.
On the second night, he returned to the main city and handed the Five Thunder Centering Circle to Su Hanshan.
“It’s done so quickly, not bad.”
Su Hanshan smiled and handed him a cup of tea, “I forgot to ask before, why did you come to Quancheng alone? Visiting relatives? Then I’m wasting your time by arranging this for you.”
“No.”
Xia Hou shook his head, grinned, and said, "I don't have any relatives. I just practiced the kung fu given by the old man in the village. After I got lucky and reached the ladder, I wanted to go out and make a living."
"I heard that here in Quancheng, There are many kinds of monsters that are full of treasures and can be sold for a lot of money, and there are not too dangerous monsters, so I want to come here."
Su Hanshan said with a smile. I see, then we are somewhat similar. I understand your feelings."
"You don't have a fixed residence yet? Do you want to live in the yard next to me? It's also been cleaned there."
Xia Hou drank the cup of tea and said hesitantly: "Thank you, senior, for your kindness, but I want to see if there is a suitable house first."
Su Hanshan suddenly said: "Have you fallen in love with that little girl from the Nie family?" Yes, it’s a bit over the top, I just feel like I’m special I like her looks. It would be nice to find a house closer to her and keep in touch."
Su Hanshan smiled half-heartedly: "Really? But Nie Ling'er is only eleven. Years old. "
Xia Hou was really stunned this time.
Wait a minute, when he met Ling'er in his previous life, Ling'er had already called himself fifteen, so now it should be fourteen at least, right?
What the hell is eleven? !
"She has a grandfather to take care of her. She has practiced martial arts since she was a child. She has grown faster and looks mature, but she is actually only eleven."
Su Hanshan smiled and patted Xia Hou's Shoulder, "Even if you really have that intention, you'd better wait a few years, otherwise it will be against the laws of Dachu."
Xiahou choked and ran away, forgetting to put down the cup in his hand. .
“Hahahaha!”
Su Hanshan looked at his back, laughed a few times, turned back to his room, looked at the Five Thunder Centering Circle, and as soon as his mind changed, the things recorded in the copper circle emerged one by one.
There is nothing wrong with the videos of various altar sites.
The record of the Five Thunder Centering Circle can not only record the video, but also record the fluctuation of the electromagnetic energy at that time. There is also no abnormality.
However, in addition to the things that Xiahou took the initiative to admit, there are some records that Xiahou also doesn't know about.
Su Hanshan imprinted his own mark on the Five Thunder Centering Circle.
Although the quality of the centering circle itself is not as good as the Taibai Sacred Tree, it is impossible to turn it into a clone.
But the basic abilities of identifying the master, telepathy, etc. are still there.
Su Hanshan controlled the Five Thunder Centering Circle and recorded Xiahou's emotional fluctuations along the way.
Martial arts practice, as soon as you step into the realm of heavenly ladder, is already a process in which the mind and body begin to integrate to a high degree and maintain one's strength.
In orthodox martial arts, even a master of Xuantai cannot directly read the mind of a master of the ladder without using methods such as punishment.
But Su Hanshan has cultivated to the extreme level since the first level of martial arts, and his acuity is extraordinary.
When I was in the Taibai Sacred Tree World, although I contributed three dantians to form the martial arts golden elixir, the Chunyang Peak’s inherited techniques cannot be completely copied in the recent three realms.
But the biggest advantage of the martial arts golden elixir is its agility and delicateness.
If we talk about all the vitality between heaven and earth, it is divided into two categories: light and dark.
What Xuantai mobilizes is the bright, active, intense, and domineering vitality.
The golden elixir focuses on those faint and inert vitality. A simple practitioner of the golden elixir path even needs to project his own power outwards and activate those vitality before he can use it on a large scale.
Su Hanshan’s martial arts golden elixir contains three Dantian and five internal organs temple-made elixirs. The outer structure completely uses the principle of the mysterious embryo, so that while he has 100% of the secret of the golden elixir, he can also possess 70% of the mysterious embryo. effect.
He was able to mobilize the vitality of heaven and earth on two levels at the same time. It was for this reason that he was able to fight against Emperor Xu and others soon after entering this realm for the first time.
But now, his special martial arts golden elixir allows him to clearly grasp Xiahou's emotional changes at that time through the records of the Five Thunder Centering Circle.
“Excessive anxiety, hesitation, and irritability...But I suppressed all these emotions, and even when I was alone, I did not show it on my face..."
Su Hanshan pondered over all the emotional records. Some of the recorded times overlapped with the videos, so he watched them against the videos and thought slowly in his mind.
“He knows some inside information about the activation of the sheep-headed demon, and this inside information is likely to involve a bigger disaster.”
“But he doesn’t care about Brother Dongfang and Nie Ling’er. These people who are supposed to be strangers also have abnormal emotions, well, let’s induce them.”
