Chapter 85 Lakeside
Although he was extremely curious about what Zhao Feng had left in his abdomen and ribs before.
But Wang Yan still suppressed his curiosity and put all the yellow-throated stone turtles into his spirit beast bag.
Then we started looking for a suitable breeding location.
Not long after, he found an open and airy area on the bank of Nanhu Lake.
"This place is quite suitable."
Wang Yan turned around and finally decided to locate the chicken farm here.
The main reason is that he also considered that he might raise yellow-throated stone turtles in the future.
Although the yellow-throated stone turtle can also survive on land, it is still water-oriented after all. It is more convenient to be close to water sources.
Without the right tools at hand, Wang Yan could only use his magic power to chop down century-old trees with his bare hands, then chop them into sections one by one, bury them, and form a wooden wall.
"This kind of big tree is almost close to a spiritual plant... Unfortunately, it feels like touching other plants, and there is no longevity. I wonder if the plant will show longevity if it becomes a demon."
Wang Yan was slightly regretful.
But he didn’t think much about it and immediately started busy.
After all, it had only been a few days since he succeeded in refining Qi, and the accumulated mana was quickly exhausted. He could only work for a while, then sat down to absorb and refine the meager spiritual energy nearby, and then converted it into mana.
After that, he got up to chop trees and bury piles. When his mana was exhausted, he meditated again.
Repeat.
"If you have the chance, you must go to the 'Practice Room' in Fang City to experience the feelings. It is too painful to practice here!"
The surrounding spiritual energy is sucked out again, and there is no other way. Wang Hao, who had no choice but to stop refining, was speechless.
It’s a pity that he doesn’t have a single spiritual stone on his body now.
There are rare chickens and spiritual chickens, but he won't sell them for the time being.
It wasn't until it was almost dark that Wang Yan finally managed to bury the wooden piles of the outer wall of the chicken farm and built an extremely simple and even leaky wooden house inside.
But that’s enough.
Sitting in the wooden house, facing the South Lake.
The moonlight shines on the lake, creating sparkling waves, but a feeling of hunger breaks this rare peace.
Wang Yan also became interested, so he simply took off his clothes and prepared to jump into the South Lake to catch two fish.
Although his water ability is average, with his current physical fitness, he can dive deep in the water for a long time and catch a few fish without much effort.
Just lowering his head, he found that the skin on the abdominal ribs was extremely smooth, and there was no trace of anything hidden.
The curiosity that I had suppressed before could not be suppressed anymore.
He couldn't help but touch it.
“It’s strange... I can obviously touch it, it’s round, but it also feels prickly.”
After thinking for a while, Wang Hao gently picked at it with his fingers, but he was unable to pull out the round thing at all.
It was as if this thing had grown on him.
"Why did Senior Brother Zhao suddenly give me this..."
Wang Yan couldn't help but start recalling last night's experience.
Senior Brother Zhao seemed to have noticed something after the black-clothed monk appeared, and then he deliberately slapped himself as if to explain the funeral arrangements. In fact, he slapped this strange thing on his body. On his own belly.
And that black-clothed monk, if nothing unexpected happens, should be Lu Yuansheng, the former outer sect disciple that Zhao Feng has always remembered.
Thinking of the gleam in Zhao Feng's eyes every time he talked about Lu Yuansheng, Wang Ba felt inexplicably complicated.
Perhaps for Zhao Feng, he is more willing to believe that Lu Yuansheng is really dead.
He shook his head gently to get rid of these useless emotions.
Wang Yan’s face showed a look of thought:
"In that case, Senior Brother Zhao knew that he would die, so he left this invisible thing to me. In other words, this thing is either extremely important to Senior Brother Zhao, or Senior Brother Zhao thinks it is very important to me."
"If I can use it...I know."
Wang Yan's heart moved, and he transferred the few mana in his Dantian to his palms little by little, and then touched his abdomen. at.
But what surprised him was that this method did not work. He could still only touch it but not see it.
After thinking about it, he mobilized his magic power from his body to his abdominal ribs.
However, his expression soon changed drastically!
The moment the few strands of mana touched the abdominal ribs, it seemed as if they had fallen into a deep sea whirlpool.
The powerful suction absorbed all his mana instantly!
But this time, although the thing on the abdomen and ribs disappeared for a fleeting moment, Wang Yan still saw it.
That is a bead.
A dark-looking iron bead.
It was embedded between his abdominal ribs, like a raised birthmark.
Although it was silent, he could faintly feel that there seemed to be an astonishing amount of sword intent in it.
Just looking at it, he felt his eyes sting.
If it absorbs enough mana, Wang Yan can't even imagine what kind of changes it will have.
"Magical weapon? Or what?"
Wang Bao was shocked.
Unfortunately, with his meager magic power, it is really difficult to meet the demand for this bead.
Sighing regretfully, Wang Yan did not indulge in such emotions. He walked quickly to the lakeside and jumped hard. In a short time, he lost several big fish to the shore.
When we got ashore, we simply disemboweled the fish with broken stone fragments, washed it with lake water, and then directly scraped off the debone fish meat and put it in our mouth.
Sweet and delicious, it melts in your mouth.
“There shouldn’t be parasites or anything like that, right?”
“But these fish can’t find longevity either... It seems like what I thought is right, not all animals You can feel the longevity."
Under the moonlight, he was chewing raw fish while carefully reviewing his experiences in the past year.
What concerned him most was undoubtedly his greatest reliance - the ability to carry longevity.
Although it was found in practice that this ability actually had many limitations, just being able to help the spirit beasts achieve longevity breakthroughs gave him too much room to operate.
But Wang Yan has also been thinking about a question.
Why didn’t he discover this ability until he joined the Dongsheng Sect?
In fact, he had come into contact with all kinds of living creatures in his mortal life. In this life, although he came from a wealthy family, he was not completely immune to the elements. Therefore, Wang Hao guessed that most of them were rare chickens and colorful ducks, which were different from the living animals at the foot of the mountain.
After thinking about it, the only difference he could think of was that living creatures in the world have less aura than rare chickens.
Although rare chickens are also ordinary chickens, because they contain spiritual energy in their bodies, they are infinitely close to spiritual birds, so they become spiritual food raised by monks.
There are many rare birds and animals in the world, but not all of them can be included in the monk's menu.
He touched a lot of fish in the lake just now, which proved this point.
None of these fish can trigger the longevity panel.
Thinking of this, he suddenly recalled the yellow-throated stone turtles during the day, and quickly took out a few from the spirit beast bag.
[Target life span: 46.1 years], [39.6 years], [47.3 years], [49.8 years]...
Life spans vary, but generally remain at 45-55 Years or so.
This is somewhat different from many people’s impression that turtles can live for thousands of years.
However, Wang Yan is not surprised. It has been recorded in Jiaohu Taoist's "Bi Tan" that the life span of most mortal turtles is only thirty or forty years.
And although forty or fifty years is not much, it is already twice as long as the twenty years of rare chickens.
“The breeding difficulty of yellow-throated stone turtles is lower than that of rare chickens. Due to their low IQ, they relatively follow the instinct of animals.”
Wang Yan carefully Recalling the records in "Bi Tan Tan".
“What’s more troublesome is that the yellow-throated stone turtle only lays four clutches of eggs a year, and each clutch usually only has four or five eggs.”
“After the turtle eggs are released, the mother turtle is not used. It lies in a nest, but the incubation period is much longer than that of an egg, taking a full three months to hatch.”
"The advantages and disadvantages are relatively obvious."
"If these yellow-throated stone turtles can be purchased in large quantities, they can also become another source of longevity."
I finished eating it in one go. Wang Yan then deposited longevity dollars into all the raw fish and meat for all the yellow-throated stone turtles.
What surprised him was that the deposit and withdrawal ratio of Yellow-throated Stone Turtle Shouyuan was similar to that of rare chicken.
Then he dug a shallow pit with wooden sticks and diverted some lake water into the pit, blocking the possibility of the yellow-throated stone turtles escaping.
Then he returned to his cabin with peace of mind and fell into a deep sleep.
He was really tired on this day.
......
Early the next morning, he used the telegraph to tell Yu Changchun that he had chosen a location to raise chickens.
Of course, the transmission talisman was given by Yu Changchun before, and it is said to be worth three low-grade spiritual stones.
Anyway, Wang Hao clearly remembered the distress on Yu Changchun's face when he gave him the transmission talisman.
He was really speechless about this.
How can a dignified great monk in the late stage of Qi refining be so picky?
Not long after, Yu Changchun rushed over and personally delivered chicken feed as high as a hill in a storage bag.
“I brought them all here from the original Jingshan Fang. Not many people in our Tianmen Sect know how to raise these. They will be enough for you to use for a while!”
"Uh... there are some things in here that will break down over time."
Wang Yan couldn't help but remind him.
Yu Changchun suddenly looked confused: "There is still this thing? What should we do?"
"There is nothing we can do for the time being, we can only use it first."
Wang Bao shook his head. Compared with Dongsheng Sect's already perfect chain for raising chickens, demon sects like Tianmen Sect probably dig more human bones.
Raising chickens is really difficult for them.
Yu Changchun, who was unable to help him, suddenly felt a little embarrassed. After hesitating for a while, he counted out five spirit stones from the storage bag.
"This...if you need anything, you can go to the market to have a look."
After that, maybe I felt that the spiritual stones given were too few, so I chatted for a while, Then he left in a hurry.
Wang Yan looked at the several spiritual stones in his hand and couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
I really can’t bear to let the horse eat grass, but I also want the horse to run away.
But I have to say that although five spiritual stones are not many, they do solve Wang Yan's urgent need.
If nothing else, if I had had more axes used by mortals yesterday, it wouldn’t have been so strenuous.
He hurried to Nanhufang City and purchased a batch of pots, stoves, dishes, beds, quilts, knives, axes, spiritual rice and other supplies and tools.
Now he is just a young monk who has just started practicing qi. He can use most of the things that ordinary people can use, and the most important thing is that they are not expensive.
So after purchasing, there were still four spiritual stones left.
When he walked through the 'Human Puppet Shop', he couldn't help but stop when he saw the human puppets with eyes closed standing in the shop.
There was a hint of heartbeat in his eyes.
These human puppets are said to be puppets, but in fact they are all made from living people. After being stimulated, they are no different from living people. While maintaining their own consciousness, they cannot refuse any request of their master.
There are many beautiful and powerful monks among them.
Of course, the combat power cannot be compared with that of normal monks.
In Wang Yan's view, although it is too cruel to make living people into human puppets, if he can have a human puppet to help him take care of the chicken farm, he will have enough time to practice.
Anyway, the transformation of a rare chicken into a spiritual chicken is just a matter of depositing longevity yuan, and there is no need for him to stay in the chicken farm in person.
But after looking around, he still had no choice but to leave.
Expensive!
It's just too expensive.
Even a human puppet made by an ordinary mortal requires 10 spiritual stones.
You also need to buy a special stimulating method, which requires 5 spiritual stones.
Wang Yan has a deeper understanding of the Tianmen Sect's methods of exploiting these outsider monks.
"By the way, isn't Yu Changchun a member of Xuan Puppet? Can you ask him to provide a human puppet?"
Thinking of this, Wang Ba prepared to let Yu Changchun shed some blood the next time he saw him.
But when he left Fangshi, he unexpectedly saw a familiar face.
"Is it her? She is still alive?"
