Douluo's Unification of Mountains and Rivers
Chapter 8 Spring Thunder
Spring has arrived, and everyone in Yangjia Village is busy.
"When the sun rises and all things begin, it is a great time to train your body and replenish your body's vitality. Sister Qian, you will not be able to experience this wonderful state if you just sit cross-legged and practice."
Yang Chen put his hands together on his back and pointed upwards, with his fingertips pointing downwards and his palms stretched upwards.
At this time, Yang Chen was wearing an undershirt, stretching his muscles and bones in the cool morning. After a few sets of movements, sweat was already dripping down his hair and onto his shoulders.
Yang Qian looked at her brother's slow movements with confusion on her face.I don’t know what’s wrong with Yang Chen. What can be accomplished by practicing this kind of snail-like “skill technique”? It’s really a child’s play.
After all, in the world of Douluo Continent, in addition to soul masters, there are also a large number of ordinary people.
In order to obtain more powerful power, there have indeed been cases where some people used "martial arts" to strengthen their bodies and fight one against ten.
It's okay for these people to bully soul masters without soul rings, but once they meet a soul master who actually has a soul ring, decades of training are not as good as a child who has cultivated a soul ring.
"Isn't it just basking in the sun? What you say is so evil. I am a girl, and basking in the sun will only make you darker!"
The two siblings were practicing their own way on the embankment in such a strange way, as if they looked down on each other's ideas.
Yang Chen was exercising in the morning sun, while Yang Qian was sitting cross-legged under the makeshift straw shed with a pink cushion under her body.The light cyan soul power continued to rotate around Yang Qian.
Wildflowers are everywhere now and early spring has passed.Farmers have already planted seeds in the farmland, and the busiest period has just ended.From now on, as long as the land is dry, irrigation can be done and the grass can be pulled out.All the rest is left to time. Just wait quietly until mid-summer, when the wheat turns yellow, you can harvest hope.If you have enough time, you can plant some melons and beans in the second half of the year.
Most of the villages located in the Lima Plain are run like this. The so-called busy farming period refers to the busy period. What do you do with the rest of the time?
That's when I'm hungry, and a few grains of rice float in the vegetable soup every day.Try to save food as much as possible, accumulate gold and silver, and hope to buy more fields.
After the villagers in Yang Village were busy with farming, they all gathered at Yang Yuan's house, and Yang Yuan organized everyone to reclaim the swamp outside Yang Village.
It turns out that Yangjia Village is located on the edge of Lima Plain.A long time ago, the river flowing down from the mountain flowed here, but when it reached the lower reaches, due to the obstruction of natural dams, the river water continued to accumulate, forming a natural lake.
Later, the natural dam formed a deep canyon under the erosion of the lake water, and the lake naturally drained away, leaving only the thick silt accumulated at the bottom of the lake, thus gradually forming a large swamp.
The ancestors of the Yang family moved here a hundred years ago. The area where Yangjia Village is located is still a swamp, and the Yang family has to deal with obstacles and obstacles.Continuous excavation of silt soil eventually opened up large areas of fertile farmland and fish ponds.
The Clark Kingdom once enacted a law that stipulated that the swamp would belong to whoever reclaimed it, and the government would directly issue a land deed.
But over the past few hundred years, the swamp has only been reduced by half of its original area.
As long as the swamp is reclaimed, it will belong to the reclaimer. How can such a good policy be reclaimed so slowly?
It turns out that this swamp is not so easy to cultivate. There are also swamp spirit beasts in this swamp, such as swamp crocodiles, pythons, and water-breathing spiders. Once the soil is moved, the lair of these spirit beasts will be encountered.Ordinary people must have died on the spot.
Yang Yuan's ancestors didn't know how many people died in the mouths of soul beasts before they established this foothold.
Later, as the Yang family owned more and more land, they could afford soul masters to sit at the reclamation site and kill soul beasts on the spot whenever they appeared.
The father of the eldest wife of the Yang family, Cheng Jiaojiao, was once a soul master hired by the Yang family. Times have changed, and now the Yang family finally has its own soul master.
Although you still have to pay for it, after all, the money is not going to other people's fields, and your daughter is better off.
Today's Yang Qian is fulfilling her promise to her father and has become the soul master of the Yang family this year.
When the ice melts in spring, the water level in the swamp rises. This is the time to divert water for irrigation. After the farmland is cultivated, with less rain and more evaporation in early spring, the water level begins to drop. This is the best time to reclaim the swamp.
Dig out a place of silt to form a lake, collect the water in one place, and it will become a fish pond in the future.Fill the silt with fertile agricultural fertilizer, separate the silt with distant sand, and fill the high ground with mature soil. In this way, you can create a piece of cultivated land.
Looking at the father directing the villagers to divide the work in the distance, the spring breeze blew gently.Yang Qian smoothed her hair from her forehead.
"I have been practicing martial arts in the academy for these years. Looking at the beautiful scenery of this countryside is really relaxing and relaxing for my body and mind."
Yang Chen really didn't understand what was worth feeling.
All I could hear was the crowd in the distance running away with a roar.
It turned out that the villagers used bamboo poles to clear the minefield spirit beasts in the "planning area" far in the future. They accidentally hit one. The spirit beast was resting well in its own territory. Feeling that its territory was being violated, it suddenly exploded. A loud roar warns outsiders to stay away.
But when Yang Chen took a look, according to the knowledge taught by his sister, this kind of soul beast was three meters long and only had about 30 years of cultivation.
Of course, Yang Qian heard the roar of the soul beast one step ahead. She immediately stepped on her toes and raised a pair of wings from her back. When she flew closer, she saw that it was a swamp lizard.
The huge lizard is about three meters long, covered with thick mud, and has a vertical pupil with brown-purple pupils.
The thick soles of its feet grip the ground firmly, and in conjunction with its head, it continuously stretches forward and roars to intimidate the opponent and scare them away.
"A little lizard dares to cause trouble!"
I saw that Yang Qian had not landed at all. A circle of yellow soul rings rose from her feet, and she jumped into the air with the rotation and flapping of her wings. Three huge ice blades slashed from Yang Qian's wings towards the swamp lizard.
"The first soul skill, Ice Blade Slash!"
Unsurprisingly, the lizard that Yang Qian was eyeing suddenly turned into a bloody mess, with one lizard and seven corpses (pieces) after being hit by three ice blades.
Looking at Yang Chen's past and present life, this was the first time he saw a soul master take action. He didn't expect his sister to be so powerful, and he killed a 30-year-old soul beast directly and neatly.
Yang Qian flew back to the hay shed and saw her younger brother staring at the soul beast she had killed in shock, and said proudly: "How about it? This is the power of a soul master after he has the first soul ring. He is slower than yours." My skills are hundreds of times stronger!"
"Is this the strength of a soul master?"
Yang Chen did not respond to his sister's words, he just muttered silently in his heart.This is more real and shocking than the scenes seen in anime.
Staring at the dead soul beast, one could see that the white soul ring of the soul beast was slowly rising. Even though the soul ring had risen, the muscle memory of the lizard was still acting, and it kept rolling every part of its body. It didn't take long. , the body parts quickly froze.
Although Yang Chen also needs a soul ring at this time, the lizard's soul ring is not his goal. At this time, Yang Chen has already set the first soul beast's cultivation level at less than 600 years. It is a pity that a 30-year-old soul ring is not his goal. The soul ring of the Nian Soul Beast was wasted in vain.
Looking at Yang Chen who was staring blankly at the dead soul beast, Yang Qian smiled softly and said very arrogantly: "Actually, when I absorbed the soul ring of this soul beast, I didn't expect that it was a mutated water beast. Wind Bird, after absorbing the soul ring, actually has the ability to shoot ice blades. I thought I could only fly at extremely high speeds, but I didn't expect there was an unexpected bonus!"
It was just a small episode just now. Yang Chen walked down the embankment alone. Someone from the village's "Bamboo Pole Pathfinding Pioneer" team had already sailed to a farther place by boat. Yang Qian was flying all over the sky, constantly getting familiar with her own. New soul skills.
"Here, it's sweet." Yang Qian found two straw-like plants from somewhere. After saying that, she put the young stems in her mouth and chewed them.
Yang Chen took one. He originally thought it was like the corn stalks in the countryside in his previous life. The green and tender straw had a refreshing sweetness.
But when I actually tasted it, I didn't know what kind of plant it was. The juice was actually sweeter than watermelon.
An idea flashed in Yang Chen's brain. Isn't this similar to sugar cane? Now the source of white sugar is also available.
Yang Chen asked excitedly: "Sister Qian, where did you find this?"
"No, there are a lot of them in that patch of reeds!"
Yang Chen looked in the direction of Yang Qian's finger and saw several small reed stems growing out of a withered reed bush. They were exactly the same as the ones in Yang Chen's hands. It turned out that the ones in his hands were considered big.
What surprised Yang Chen even more was that it turned out to be a biennial aquatic plant. Yang Chen pulled it out hard, and a potato-sized rhizome was almost exposed out of the water. Although it had a lot of fishy smell, Yang Chen opened it and found it. It is a sweeter part than the straw just now.
Yang Chen did what he said and dug two big bags full in the morning.
Yang Chen had talked about the effects of white sugar before when he was studying sugar explosives, but when he asked the people around him, no one even knew what white sugar was.The only sweet things are hand-brewed maltose and wild honey from deep mountains and old forests.Maybe Yue Tuocheng is too small, so Bai Tang has never been found.
Now, regardless of whether black powder and other raw materials are available, at least sugar is available.
Yang Chen carried a bag and came to the small courtyard where he used to live. Today, the small courtyard is no longer shabby, and everything has been renovated by Brother Mouse.
Now Brother Mouse has become a free citizen, living alone in this small courtyard by virtue of his status as the godson of the second wife of the Yang family.
"Ah Chen, you're here!" Brother Mouse now had flesh color on his face, and he said excitedly when he saw Yang Chen's arrival.
"By the way, Ah Chen, look, these are my steward's clothes. Now I am in charge of all the water tanks in the house, and I have about ten boys under my command. I never dared to think about this before. It's all thanks to you. ." Mouse thanked Yang Chen sincerely.
"Thank you, we are brothers! If you hadn't ambushed Yang Hao in advance, I would have been tricked by him!" Yang Chen's true brotherhood towards Brother Mouse.
Not to mention that when I first traveled through time, Brother Mouse made me fish and stewed soup every day, and my health gradually improved.Later, Yang Hao's conspiracy was discovered.
Yang Chen originally planned to give Brother Mouse a good way out, but Brother Mouse was reluctant to let go of Yang's house, so he just got rid of his slave status and asked for a job as a waterman.
Since Brother Mouse likes it, let him do it.
"By the way, Ah Chen, aren't you supposed to be practicing martial arts at the diba right now? Why are you here with me!"
Yang Shu grabbed a handful of tea leaves, poured them into the teapot, picked up the kettle on the charcoal fire, and poured the hot water into the teapot.
Suddenly, the scent of fragrance drifted into the nostrils of the two people.
Yang Shu is Brother Mouse’s full name, and he was named after Yang Chen, but the two of them still use their previous names.
"When the sun rises and all things begin, it is a great time to train your body and replenish your body's vitality. Sister Qian, you will not be able to experience this wonderful state if you just sit cross-legged and practice."
