Unwrapping the package, there are eight delicate little boxes inside, on which are depicted lifelike cave beasts and elves, some with teeth and claws, some rolling on the ground, and some with their heads in a posture. Meng Cheng handed out the box and told everyone that this was a gift for them.

Zhou Tianshen took the box, weighed it, it was quite heavy, he tried to shake it from side to side, and there was a sound of iron colliding inside the box, recalling what Meng Cheng had said before, Zhou Tianshen felt a little bad. Trying to open the box, after seeing the contents inside, Zhou Tianshen smiled bitterly.

The box contains two iron bracelets, the bracelets are carved with complex patterns, and everyone's is different, Jin Quanyi looked at these bracelets and felt a little familiar, "I seem to have seen these bracelets, it seems that my father beat them." ”

Everyone looked bitter.

Meng Cheng looked at everyone's faces and laughed, "It's really a gold blacksmith, how is it, is it appropriate?"

Jin Quanyi smiled embarrassedly, "I seem to have helped fight two." ”

Wang Duozhan looked at the two bracelets that were thicker than his thighs, and said miserably, "If we want to take this to cultivate, we will be exhausted." ”

Meng Cheng coughed dryly, "Cough, don't worry, the weight of everyone's bracelets is different, this is specially developed by me and Kou seniors, it won't kill you, and we have to live in the mountains for fifteen days, so in these fifteen days, we have to wear the bracelet all the time, if I find out that someone takes it off, then all of them will be punished." ”

"Fifteen days!"

"Wouldn't it be too long!"

"My parents will miss me!"

Meng Cheng chopped his right foot, the whole ground trembled slightly, and the noise stopped abruptly.

Meng Cheng said, "Everyone rest in place, Jin Quanyi, come here, we need to chop some wood and build a wooden house." ”

Jin Quanyi carried a bamboo basket on his back and walked into the woods with Meng Cheng.

Everyone had been running around all morning, and they were all a little sleepy, so Zhou Tianshen picked up some debris from the treetop wooden house, and everyone lay on it together, covering their bodies with their own clothes to sleep.

Hearing the sound, Zhou Tianshen's head was still a little drowsy, and when he woke up, he found that the sky was already a little dark.

Jin Quanyi raised his head, smiled at Zhou Tianshen who woke up, and whispered, "The wooden house is almost ready, Uncle Meng has led Zishan and Xiandi to hunt, and you can eat some game tonight." ”

Zhou Tianshen looked at the place where Tie Zishan slept, sure enough, there was no one, he stepped forward and helped Jin Quanyi do what he could, and when the wooden house was completely built, Meng Cheng and the three of them also rushed back, Meng Cheng was carrying a red-haired pheasant in his hand, and an arrow-tailed pig was also carrying behind him, Tie Zishan and Ma Xiandi were carrying bamboo baskets, which contained some kettles and wild fruits made of bamboo. After Meng Cheng woke up the others, he set up a bonfire and started the barbecue.

Ma Xiandi also found some herbs in the jungle that could be used to spice up, and the dinner was very hearty, with meat, soup, and fruit after the meal.

Watching Meng Cheng take out pots and pans and other various things from the gem on his waist, Wang Duozhan asked with starry eyes, "Uncle Meng, what is this?"

Meng Cheng wiped the red gem on his waist, a wine jug instantly appeared in his hand, opened the stopper on the wine jug, and a burst of wine fragrance wafted in, causing people to want to get drunk, Meng Cheng took out nine more small wine glasses, and poured a glass for each before replying, "This is an inch guard, a magic weapon that can be used to store items." Meng Cheng took off his belt and pointed to the black gem on it, "This is the core of the cunshou thing, also known as the spiritual root, which is the foundation of the cultivation of cave beasts and elves, and the black color corresponds to the realm of cultivators, and it needs to be cultivated to be able to open, which is just right for me." In addition, the spiritual root can also be embedded in the weapon to increase the power of the weapon, and for some large families or sects, the spiritual root can also heal the pain, but it must be combined with the corresponding method. ”

Zhou Tianshen took a sip of wine, only to feel that his brain was instantly clear, and he asked, "Then how can I obtain the spiritual root?"

Meng Cheng re-fastened his belt, drank all the wine in the wine glass, and said, "Only by killing cave beasts or elves." ”

"What about the necromancy? Don't they?"

"They also have spiritual roots, but because they are evil, they are also polluted, and it is generally not recommended to use them to avoid disturbing their minds. ”

After eating and drinking, everyone walked into the wooden house, and eight beds were packed inside, all of which were ordered with the help of Jin Quanyi, Meng Cheng did not rest in the wooden house, although it was on the edge of the nameless mountain, very close to Laohuai Village, but just in case, Meng Cheng needed to keep vigil.

The night was getting darker, and the snoring in the wooden house was everywhere, but Zhou Tianshen tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

He walked out of the wooden house and found that Meng Cheng was meditating not far away, and when he heard the voice, Meng Cheng opened his eyes and waved at him, and Zhou Tianshen walked towards Meng Cheng.

Zhou Tianshen fiddled with the bracelets Meng Cheng gave them, and Meng Cheng took out the wine jug and wine glass from the inch guard and poured them for the two of them. After three rounds of drinking, Meng Cheng took out a short knife and a few darts from the cunshou object, the short knife was about twenty centimeters, the scabbard painted a golden flame lion with gold powder on the front, and a stone suspended in the air on the back, the characters were drawn in detail on the stone, the darts were very ordinary style, there was nothing surprising, Zhou Tianshen turned the short knife, I don't know why.

Meng Cheng took another sip of wine, then threw the wine jug to Zhou Tianshen, got up to leave, and before leaving, he said, "This is your thing, I... , the thing is returned to its original owner. ”

_________

Zhou Tianshen woke up with a hangover, when everyone stood neatly together, only he was alone with his head covered, leaning against the stump, not knowing what was going on, Meng Cheng assigned tasks to everyone, and they followed Meng Cheng's instructions to go all over the woods to complete their tasks.

After everyone left, Meng Cheng came to Zhou Tianshen, took out a small grass from the cunshou thing, and stuffed it into Zhou Tianshen's mouth, "This is hangover grass, when the wine wakes up, you will go to the mountains to chop some dry firewood, this is your tool." ”

Meng Cheng shoved an axe the size of a fist into Zhou Tianshen's hand and turned to leave.

Zhou Tianshen's wine woke up quickly, but he was still very confused about today's task, could it be that chopping wood is also cultivation, and Meng Cheng didn't say how much he wanted to cut, no matter what, just fill the bamboo basket, Zhou Tianshen said to himself.

found a dead tree nearby, Zhou Tianshen put down the bamboo basket in his hand, found a good power point, cut it down with an axe, and splashed a piece of sawdust...

When the bamboo basket was filled, Zhou Tianshen was already sweating profusely, wearing a bracelet wrist, rubbing badly, sweating on his arms, he would feel a tingling pain, Zhou Tianshen took a deep breath, carried the bamboo basket to the direction of the wooden house, looked at the only small pile of firewood on the ground, Zhou Tianshen took other people's bamboo baskets, brought the kettle, and walked in a farther direction, he needed to find some smaller branches, which could reduce some pressure.

After walking for a quarter of an hour, Zhou Tianshen searched carefully, and finally found a dry tree trunk, the whole trunk had rotted, and it had probably been hollowed out by moths.

————————

The task is different for all.

Wang Duozhan climbed to a small tree, his task was the simplest and most difficult, that is, to climb to a high place, when not to be afraid, when to come down again. In order not to put too much pressure on himself, Wang Duozhan adopted a step-by-step strategy, first looking for a slightly shorter tree, he needed to figure out his bottom line first. When his legs trembled and became weak, Wang Duo swallowed the saliva in his throat, and silently said in his heart, I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid... Tie Zishan's father often haunts the mountains, and sometimes spends the night in the mountains, this is, Tie Liu will bring Tie Zishan, the father and daughter sit together to watch the stars in the night sky, Tie Liu will also tell Tie Zishan some common sense in the mountains, and how to deal with the cave beasts, so Tie Zishan has a kind of blood thicker than water to the mountains. Meng Cheng gave her the task of patrolling, they had to live in the mountains for fifteen days, during these fifteen days, they needed to constantly change their positions, so safety became the top priority, Tie Zishan's task was to inspect the presence of the surrounding cave beasts to avoid encountering danger in cultivation.

After a long time of chopping, the woodcutter has been worn out a little, Jin Quanyi polished the woodcutter on the stone, looking at the shining tip of the knife, Jin Quanyi was happy in his heart. His bamboo basket has been filled with stones, these stones are carefully selected by him, Meng Cheng instructed, there will be some cave beasts that come out to forage at night, these stones are used to deal with them, although I don't understand what it means, but Jin Quanyi, who has been working behind his father since he was a child, has developed a calm and calm character, and he only needs to do a good job of the elders' entrustment.

Bai Xiaosheng, his father Bai Fat, is a chef who has heard his name and tasted it in Laohuai Village and even the surrounding neighboring villages, his cooking skills can definitely be described as superb, it is precisely because of his superb cooking skills that he is fortunate to marry his current wife, Yan Meidi, Bai Xiaosheng can have the appearance of today, but it all depends on his mother, Bai Xiaosheng, who is spotless from head to toe, is closing his eyes at this time, covering his mouth, squatting in a swamp that exudes a violent putrid smell, the corpse of the cave beast floating in the swamp, and several bed bugs are suspended above the corpse, in addition, Bai Xiaosheng also smeared the soil in the swamp on his body, and the bed bugs smelled, all flew to Bai Xiaosheng's body.

Wan Sansi and Wang Cunyuan were arranged together, their task today is to pick honey, there are three honeycombs hanging on the tree, everyone needs to fill the kettle in their hands, otherwise they are not qualified, not only will they be punished, but also their companions, Wang Cunyuan, who has always been weak, will add a lot of courage in his life when he thinks of this, he will never let his companions be punished because of himself, Wan Sansi looked at Wang Cunyuan, who was full of energy, and his heart was happy, he had already handed over his kettle to Wang Cunyuan, he understood Wang Cunyuan's character, he would never let himself be punished, as soon as he thought of this, Wan Sansi's hand with an abacus couldn't stop trembling, and he thought that he had made another profit。

Ma Xiandi picked a five-bamboo grass, counting the number in the bamboo basket, there is still a lot of money left, and the target must be picked before dark, Ma Xiandi walked slowly, picking some wild flowers from time to time and putting them on her ears, her task is to collect medicine, her father opened a grocery store, for the herbs and materials in the mountains, she knows no less than adults, and it is inevitable to encounter some injuries when cultivating in the mountains, then the auxiliary treatment of herbs is needed, Ma Xiandi carried the bamboo basket on her back, and walked to the depths of the woods very easily.
