Chapter 20 Giant Python in the Lake (Please add to favorites and recommend)

On this day, a regular customer came to Qingshi Mountain.

This regular customer was none other than Ling Ruguo, who had escorted more than 3,000 ordinary people from Xia Zhi Mountain to settle around Qingshi Mountain a few months ago. The main purpose of his trip was to pay Ling Pengyun's salary for the next six months.

The Ling family has adopted a one-time payment of half a year's salary to clan members who are sent abroad to reduce the situation where clan members who are away from home have difficulty receiving their salary.

As for the clansmen who are stationed in the lower-level Lingshan Mountains within the family territory, there will be dedicated personnel who will personally come to distribute their salaries between June and July every year.

As for why the salary is not paid out in one year or even in two or three years, it is very simple. Ling cannot afford so many resources at once.

Qingshi Mountain, the top of the mountain.

"Peng Yun, on my way from Xiazhui Mountain to Qingshi Mountain, I saw that boy Ling Dong leading more than 500 Qingshi Village villagers to build a road. I heard what Ling Dong said, is this something you proposed?" Ling Ruguo With an appreciative look on his face, he looked at Ling Pengyun and asked.

Ling Pengyun saw the change in Ling Ruguo's expression and naturally guessed that the question was not a bad thing. He told the truth and praised Ling Ruguo's descendants. "Yes, it was great-grandson's idea, but the organization of so many villagers so smoothly is thanks to Village Chief Ling. Without his assistance, great-grandson would have had many difficulties in implementing this method!"

"You kid, don't try to collect merit for that kid Ling Dong. I still know how much he is capable of. Besides, as a common member of my Ling family, how dare you disobey the words of a stationed monk like you? What if that's true? In this way, this Qingshi Village no longer needs to exist. You want to improve their lives, but they don't know. What a joke!" Ling Ruguo said domineeringly.

Then he praised Ling Pengyun for taking the lead in building the road.

"But your proposal to build a road is indeed a good one. If you want to improve the prosperity of Qingshi Village, you really need to build a road! Furthermore, the tens of thousands of ordinary people in Xiazhi Town will be able to live better with the food supply of Qingshi Village. Some!"

"I won't say any more words of praise. Remember, no matter whether you do something big or small for the family, the family will know it and will never forget what you have done!"

Ling Ruguo looked solemn and said something meaningful.

Ling Pengyun's expression moved slightly and he responded. "Great-grandfather, I understand!"

"I still have eleven clansmen stationed in the spiritual veins. I haven't gone to distribute the salary, so I'm just delaying it too much. This is your salary for the next six months, which is sixty spiritual stones and one hundred and twenty kilograms of green jade spiritual rice. , six Qi Training Pills, and twelve Huangya Pills!”

"Brother Eleven has already told me that my family will give you two extra Huangya Pills every month. If he hadn't told me, it would be difficult for me to hand it over to you. Don't worry, I won't tell you about it! "Ling Ruguo took out a storage bag from his arms, summoned Ling Pengyun's offerings for the next six months, and said solemnly.

Ling Pengyun cupped his hands and thanked him. "Here comes the third great-grandfather of Lao!"

Then, he took out the two bottles of venom and twenty spirit stones that he had obtained from killing the Moyun snake more than forty days ago from his storage bag, and faced Ling Ruguodao. "Third great-grandfather, these are the two bottles of venom and two snake gallbladders that I got from killing the Moyun poisonous snake a few days ago. I would like to ask you to help me pass it on to the eighth and tenth grandfathers so that they can help me refine the explosive poison beads. , and detoxifying pills! The extra twenty spirit stones are given to the two ancestors to purchase the remaining refining materials needed to refine the poisonous beads and detoxifying pills!"

Ling Pengyun's "Tenth Grandfather" is the tenth in the Ling family's generation, and he is also the only alchemist of the Ling family. His alchemy level is the first-level mid-level, and most of the elixirs leaked from the family are from his hands.

The "eighth ancestor" is naturally Ling Yunan, the weapon refiner.

"Moyun Viper? Good boy, you can kill both of these monsters, or two of them. It's not easy! No matter you are fighting monsters or monks in the future, don't fight to the death. If you can't win, run away first!" Hold on!"

"I will help you talk to Yun An about refining the explosive poison beads, but I can't guarantee whether he will have time!"

"Recently, I feel that my end is approaching. In less than a year, I am afraid that my life span will be exhausted. My only grandson who is not living up to expectations and has no spiritual roots... I will ask you to take care of him!" Ling Ruguo Taking the two bottles of venom and twenty spiritual stones handed over by Ling Pengyun, he turned around and spoke in a deep voice.

After saying that, he jumped on the back of the fairy crane in the middle stage of Qi refining next to him, and flew away from Qingshi Mountain on the fairy crane.

Ling Pengyun looked at Ling Ruguo's hunched back, his mood gradually became lower and he felt some empathy.

"This Qi training period will only last a hundred years. If I can't build the foundation, a hundred years later, I will definitely turn into a piece of loess!"

"I don't know if I can succeed in finding immortality!"

"Longevity..."

"Third great-grandfather!"

"Why!"

Ling Pengyun stood blankly on the top of Qingshi Mountain for half an hour before he came back to his senses.

"Eternal life is too far away, take it one step at a time!"

"Currently, the bottleneck closest to me is the sixth level of Qi training!"

Ling Pengyun looked determined, muttered to himself, and then returned to the cave halfway up the mountain to continue his daily hard training.

As early as half a month ago, Ling Pengyun successfully broke through the bottleneck that had trapped him for several months with the help of two spiritual peaches with gentle spiritual power and no impurities, and was promoted to the fifth level of Qi training.

During the half year in Qingshi Mountain, in addition to gaining some achievements in cultivation, Ling Pengyun also successfully mastered the water arrow technique that he practiced hard every day to the level of Dacheng, which is enough to be used within three breaths.

In addition to this technique, Ling Pengyun experienced the Mo Yun poisonous snake attack for more than forty days, and also dabbled in a water defense spell called "Water Shield Technique".

Water shield is a first-class medium-grade spell, and its effect is the same as that of the water shield charm, which is to create a water shield.

Because this spell is a defensive spell, it is more difficult to comprehend. Even though Ling Pengyun has a good talent in water spells, he has only just started in forty days.

It is far less fast than comprehending water thorns and water arrows.

As for Ling Pengyun's thorny vines, they are also slowly recovering and replenishing their essence and recovering their injuries during the process of Ling Pengyun's daily use of spiritual power.

After more than 110 days, the muddy road leading to Xiazhi Town for more than 300 miles has been repaired.

The day has also come to the autumnal equinox, and the thousands of acres of rice planted by the villagers of Qingshi Village have also reached maturity.

The unique fragrance of rice also drifts around the entire Qingshi Village.

In the rice fields, the golden ears of wheat are not only their food for the coming year, but also a lot of copper coins in the eyes of the villagers of Qingshi Village. Many families have already thought about what to buy with the money they earn from selling the surplus rice to Xiazhi Town.

Buy some clothes for the children, build a bigger house, or buy a cow or sheep...

When the villagers of Qingshi Village were enjoying the joy of the harvest, a black shadow appeared in the usually quiet Qingshi Lake, swallowing a child who was playing alone in the lake silently.

At this time, the black shadow showed its shape, which was a blue giant python as big as a millstone.

And after it swallowed the child in one bite, its belly also swelled up.

After it had eaten its fill, the blue python looked towards the golden rice fields where cheers were coming from. A hint of greed flashed across its cold eyes. Then it looked up at the bluestone mountain that was several dozen feet high not far away, with a look of fear in its eyes.

In just three breaths, the blue python that had already eaten its fill quietly disappeared into the lake, leaving no trace.
