Chapter 46 Departing for the Buxian Mountain Mining Area
After simply tidying up the room, Chen Shicheng entered the game again.
Like the Thief Pendant, the Evil Ghost Mask also appeared on the face of the game character without being put into the storage slot.
Akimaru did not fall behind. Although he could not see it, with that trace of contact, he could feel Akkimaru's nearly three-meter body standing behind him.
Now that he had decided to set off to the mining area to look for Fourth Master Hui, Chen Shicheng did not waste time and went straight out to find Wang Peng to say goodbye and see if he could borrow a horse.
The mining area is hundreds of kilometers away from the Ironmaking Town. Although you can run there with just your legs, people are not lazy. Of course, if you have a means of transportation, you must use it.
Unfortunately, when he walked around the military camp, he didn't even see a few ordinary soldiers, not to mention Wang Peng.
As for the horses, they were even hairless, as if the young general and Wang Peng ran away directly with the food.
After finally finding a patrolling soldier, he realized that just after he got off the line, the two of them really set off with most of the food, and they didn’t know where they went, especially the horses. All requisitioned.
In desperation, he could only follow the soldier's suggestion and go to the town to find a businessman who rented the mount.
The place was not difficult to find. It was right at the entrance of the town. After a brief consultation, the businessman who rented the mounts introduced him to four types of mounts according to the price, including the spiritual beast crane, the dragon horse, the giant pack ox, and the horse.
[Spiritual Beast Crane: A flying mount specially bred by the Beast Taming Sect. It is two meters tall and has a sharp crane beak and claws. It has simple wind control capabilities and can withstand strong winds during fast flight. It has the fastest speed. It has the highest comfort and comfort, and also has certain combat capabilities. Rental price: 5 gold/day, deposit: 500 gold. 】
[Dragon Horse: Legend has the blood of a dragon, has scales on its joints, has sharp teeth and eats meat, can travel thousands of miles a day, has certain combat capabilities, and is second only to the crane in speed and comfort. Rental price: 2 gold /sky. Deposit: 200 gold. 】
[Giant Pack Oxen: A large-tonnage beast of burden with a docile personality. It is extremely powerful and can pull dozens of tons of cargo. It moves slowly and has strong controllability. Rental price: 3 silver/day , Deposit: 50 silver. 】
[Son horse: an ordinary horse that cannot be used as a war horse. It has no use except pulling carts and carrying people. It is good at short-distance sprints and has no combat ability and low comfort. Rental price: 1 silver/day, deposit: 10 silver. 】
Spiritual beast crane!
Dragon horse!
Ironmaking Town is indeed an important transportation thoroughfare, and it even has mounts like this.
Unfortunately, the price was too expensive. Chen Shicheng, who had never been short of money when he entered the game, once again felt what it meant to be poor.
The first two high-end mounts often require a deposit of hundreds of taels of gold. There are still more than 380 taels of gold rewarded by the system of 500 taels, so he can still afford it.
But according to his plan, he had no intention of coming back soon after going to the mining area.
After all, looking for the inheritance of Fourth Master Hui of the Immortal Family is not something you can just pick up when you arrive on the road. It takes time to find it.
Moreover, the mining area is within the main peak of Bulxian Mountain, and the distance is not too far. Regardless of whether he can find the Xianjia heritage by then, he is ready to join in the fun after the players arrive.
If you come across something good but miss it because you paid a deposit, it will be like losing a watermelon and picking up sesame seeds.
In the end, Chen Shicheng had no choice but to give up the first two mounts and choose the third one, renting a giant pack ox with a shoulder height of two meters.
Of course, it’s not that he upgraded his consumption after getting rich and looked down on the cheapest horse. The main reason is that he plans to collect enough experience points on the road, and it is best to upgrade to level 5 when he reaches Bulk Mountain. Full of experience.
So the giant pack ox, which has a docile personality, is the most stable on the road, and has the highest comfort level, became his first choice.
After paying the deposit and half a month's rent to obtain the right to use a mature pack ox, Chen Shicheng lay on its broad back and left the ironmaking town.
After leaving the town, he allowed the pack oxen to move toward the west according to the direction of Bulxian Mountain, while he looked at the sky leisurely.
Latiao seemed to be energized by returning to the forest, and kept running around on the head of the pack cow. This beast of burden is indeed as described in the introduction. It has a very docile personality and is not impatient at all when La Tiao jumps up and down. It keeps its head down and follows the set goal.
But just because the man and the beast were free, it didn't mean that Akkimaru had nothing to do.
After Chen Shicheng gave the order to clean up all wild monsters on both sides of the road ahead, Akkimaru floated directly into both sides of the forest and began the escort work.
The level 15 Akkimaru is basically on the ceiling on the road outside the forest. There are no wild monsters that are its enemies.
The first time he discovers a wild monster, Akkimaru will fly to the side with the virtualization, then reveal his true form, and then slap it with a paw. No skills are needed, and the wild monster will turn into a puddle. Rotten meat.
At the same time, the drowsy Chen Shicheng kept hearing system prompts in his ears.
[Kill the Lv.1 soulless bandit, gain 0.0001 experience points, and obtain 2 copper coins. 】
【Kill the Lv.0 wild wolf, gain 0.00001 experience points, and obtain wolf skin*1. 】
【Kill the Lv.4 horse thief, gain 1 experience point, and 7 copper coins. 】
[Kill the Lv.7 poisonous spider, double the experience of skipping the kill, gain 12 experience points, obtain poison sac*1, poisonous spider silk*1. 】
As the distance from the town increases, the density of wild monsters increases, and the level gradually increases.
But there are still very few high-level wild monsters, and you won't encounter one for an hour or two. They are basically low-level monsters. Horse thieves of the same level as him can occasionally encounter one or two.
But even so, with Akkimaru killing monsters like chickens, Chen Shicheng still reached level 5 when he arrived at the outside of the main peak of Mount Bulam, and his various attributes also improved.

Looking at his attributes that completely exceeded the upgrade threshold, Chen Shicheng looked pleased.
Upgrading or something, it’s not just a matter of having hands. It’s not as difficult as Fruit Candy said, and it also requires the assistance of elixirs. Don’t blame the game mechanism for the problems!
