Chapter 35: The Night Is Hard

At the same time, the camp's improvised defense system is in full swing.

Of course, the defense system is not to prevent any powerful spirit beasts, except for some forbidden places, the powerful spirit beasts near Jiuyun Peak are either caught or killed by the spirit beast room, or they have been scared to run for hundreds of miles, the defense system is just to prevent some beasts from straying into the camp and affecting everyone's rest.

The planned camp is surrounded by a circle of trenches one meter deep and one meter wide, and a five-foot-high fence consisting of a row of tree stumps on the inside of the trench. The soil spirit root disciples performed the soil loosening technique in front, and the miscellaneous disciples followed behind to dig the soil, and the efficiency was extremely fast. The gaps between the wooden fences were also filled in by the Wood Spirit Root disciples with growth techniques.

When it was time to arrive, the disciples of the Badao Room returned one after another, each with a thick log. The disciples who sent out to hunt also brought back three giant horned deer and five stone-skinned porcupines.

Wei Yuning personally started the barbecue, the seasoning is the famous moon pig, although it has been diluted to an indescribable extent, but the taste is still good, no worse than ordinary spiritual food.

There are many people and great strength, plus Wei Yuning drew a simple map of the building, and everyone built according to the drawing, and it was possible that before dark, a camp with a novel appearance and complete functions was completed.

The new camp is boxy, about 40 meters wide, and built on a slightly sloping slope. In the bottom row of the slope are two latrines for 20 people each, separated for men and women, separated by a half-height wall between each toilet.

At the top of the camp is a row of six houses, all built in the air, with only pillars below, about half a meter high, and the upper floors are the places to live, which is to prevent snakes and insects from crawling in.

The open space in the middle of the camp is a place for cooking and barbecue, with a long strip of mound stove with a bonfire burning underneath it, on which to cook food and barbecue, and everyone can sit together.

Above the stove is a four-walled ventilated shelter, which was built to prevent rain. The clouds near Jiuyun Peak are very heavy, and the weather is changeable.

By the time the third team hung up the fluorite lanterns, the camp looked beautiful in the twilight.

Originally, the disciples of the other two teams observed the nonsense of the third team with the mentality of watching monkey plays, and they all felt that the captain of the third team was making a bit of a fuss, just sleeping in the wild, and it was okay to deal with it casually, why bother with it.

However, when they saw that the other party had built a near-perfect overnight camp with a speed visible to the naked eye, they were completely dumbfounded.

Let's look back at myself, a dozen people around a bonfire, scattered in the grassland, it looks beautiful, but why does the food in your mouth become unfragrant?

The female cultivators of the Qingluan Sect in the first and second teams also had no intention of chatting, and looked at the neat and beautiful camp in the distance with envy.

However, they can only envy.

Steward Hongzhi and Fairy Yunyan, who had been observing the performance of the three teams early in the morning, were also shocked by the camp of the three teams. They hesitated a little and walked straight into the camp of the third team, they didn't want to sleep in the wilderness.

"What is this?" On both sides of the long campfire pit, the disciples sat in a row and began the self-service barbecue. In front of each disciple was a thick leaf, and on top of the thick leaf was a sauce-colored gooey thing. Hongzhi doesn't know this thing, and neither does Fairy Yunyan, but Hongzhi has always been a serious elder, and he is embarrassed to ask the junior for advice, but Fairy Yunyan doesn't have this concern.

"This is a seasoning made by grinding and stirring wild onions, ginger, sugar, salt, wild leeks, bay leaves, spices, purple juice, moon insects, bean sunflower and other things, which can be spread on food for barbecue, can also be used as a dipping sauce for grilled meat, and can also be added when cooking food, which is very helpful for improving the taste of food!" Wei Yuning said.

"Sugar, salt, moon insects, I know, what are the other things you are talking about?" Fairy Yunyan asked.

"No, it's not herbs, you can think of them as weeds, it's just that the taste is more special, I named them blindly, I don't have to care about the name. ”

"Hey, this tastes good, and with the spices, this venison is much better than spiritual food. Hongzhi had already gotten his hands on it, and after taking a bite, he couldn't help but praise on the side.

"Wait a minute, senior brother, leave this piece of meat for junior sister to eat!" Hearing this, Fairy Yunyan honestly snatched a piece of meat.

As the night deepened, the men and women of the first team had eaten and drunk enough, and had no intention of going back to the house to sleep, they sat together, chatting casually, and talking about some interesting things in the cultivation realm and what they had seen in various places. Even if most of the disciples didn't find their favorite Taoist companions, this did not prevent them from becoming friends.

Steward Hongzhi and Fairy Yunyan were very satisfied with the harmonious picture in front of them.

The ecosystem near Jiuyun Peak is extremely well preserved, with dense vegetation, and after the night is late, the cool air gradually increases, and the night breeze blows, and the temperature difference between day and night is very large.

Although the monks were more tolerant of cold and heat than mortals, they were still flesh and blood, and gradually, some of the monks began to get up and go to the warm and sheltered huts to rest.

Qiu Hu and other Qingluan Sect female cultivators were very satisfied with the camp, especially the thatched hut with good privacy, and they were full of praise. The nightingale kept pestering Qiu Hu, causing Wei Yuning and Qiu Hu to not have much room to get along. It's just that Qiu Hu is very fond of the nightingale, and he only pretends not to know about Wei Yuning's hints.

Wei Yuning had to brag and chat with the three deputy captains of the sword room, Manniu and Chang Fei and others.

Late at night, most of the monks began to rest. Wei Yuning took advantage of the nightingale's departure to pull Qiu Hu aside, and the two came to a corner of the barracks dormitory, back to back, and talked about some private gossip.

The third team had a place to eat, drink, and sleep, and the monks of the first and second teams gradually became uncomfortable in comparison.

After the campfire burned for two hours, the wood gradually ran out and lost its original temperature. It was dark and dreary, and no one wanted to look for wood, so everyone huddled together in twos and threes, sitting fit, ready to stay up all night.

"Oops, there's bugs in the grass!" a nun suddenly cried.

The fire spirit root disciple hurriedly released the fireball technique, and the black multi-legged insects crawled around against the grass roots, the night was already dark, and it was their foraging time.

"Don't be afraid, we can go to the tree to rest!" Qing Cong's voice sounded.

"Yes, yes, the captain is right, go up the tree!"

"Captain mighty!"

"The captain is very intelligent!"

"Senior Brother Qingcong is as his name suggests!" For the sake of two spirit stones a day, the monks of the first team did not hesitate to praise them.

"Whoosh", "Whoosh", "Whoosh".

Soon, the trunk was full of monks.

"No, there are too many people, you go to the tree over there!"

"Why should I go, why don't you go?"

"No need to go, the second team is in the morning!" someone shouted.

"This ...... What should I do?"

"How else can we go down for a while, let's go down and sleep standing up!"

"The female cultivator stays on the tree, and the male cultivator goes down!"

"I ...... I won't sleep standing up!"

"Isn't that the farmer's house over there, or we'll go there!"

"I ...... Forget it, that wild wolf Taoist looks very vicious, he won't go, and besides, there are already people in the dormitory, do you want to drive them away?"

"It's so cold, it's so cold in the trees, I want to go down!" a nun muttered.

"Aren't you afraid of bugs?"

"I just begged my senior sister to go, I want to live in the camp of the third team. Even if the house can't be inhabited, I've seen the ground inside, it's very smooth, there are definitely no insects, and besides, they have a fence, and there is no wind in it. A nun said.

"I want to go too!"

"Well, so do I!"

For a while, the voice of the warbler and the swallow sounded, and Qing Cong's eyebrows were like ants on a hot pot, jumping non-stop.

"That's right, our Fire Spiritual Root disciples can also set fire to a clean ground, why bother looking at the faces of the three teams, and besides, they may not let us in!"

"That's right!"

"Who is the Fire Spiritual Root disciple?"

"Senior brothers and sisters, spare my little brother, the barbecue food just now has exhausted my aura, and I really can't move. There was a weak sound in the grass below.

The crowd fell silent.

Qing Cong didn't say a word, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep. He and Feng Wu at his side occupied the center of the canopy, and below him was the top of the main trunk, with an area of nine feet square, enough for the two of them to rest. As for Qing Chou, he and another group of teammates were in another campfire group.

Feng Wu was anxious in her heart, but she had to pretend that she didn't care, and she closed her eyes like Qingcong, but instead of lying down, she sat cross-legged, protecting her abdomen with her hands, and passing the time with cultivation.

Everyone talked for a long time, and there was no good solution, and they saw that the captain Qingcong no longer cared about them, so they simply showed their powers.

After some discussion, the female cultivators began to walk in groups towards the camp of the third team, and of course Feng Wu did not follow. Most of the male cultivators cared about their faces, and it was impossible for them to beg others for such a trivial matter, so they simply went down to pick up some dead branches again, and lit a bonfire, and at the same time expanded the area of the bonfire, and used the fire to drive away the nocturnal insects. However, with such a toss, almost half of the whole night was wasted looking for firewood.

There is no word all night, and the night is bright.

"Oh no, the petrel is gone!" a scream broke the peace of the beast garden.
