Although it has been determined that the cultivation of the jade will be carried out in a large area on the outskirts of the camp near the forest area, it will take some time for the various facilities required for the cultivation of the jade to be fully completed, so it is likely that the breeding of the jade will be delayed this year.

But this is harmless: this year, Mao Yu in Gensokyo is obviously eating too many hormones, which are generally everywhere, and there are so many that they harass the inside and outside of the world. It is believed that if the other four areas are cleaned up, Feng Longde will not only get the remaining 4,000 P coins in commission, but also get a lot of Mao Yu to breed and eat.

While the breeders were busy constructing Maoyu's grazing enclosures, Feng Longde and the others spent a quiet night - of course, after a few baptisms of tomahawks flying out of various tents, Miss Night Sparrow had suppressed the volume even when she sang in the camp, which just acted as a lullaby.

Early the next morning, Von Longde and Yarman once again led forty other eager knights of the Guard towards the human mines at the foot of the Monster Mountain.

Monster Mountain, as the name suggests. It is the mountain range inhabited by various demons and monsters, which plays an important role as a balance point in Gensokyo, and the waterfall here is the source of water for the Lake of Mist and the Brown Forest. Many ancient yokai and gods lived here, and established a social culture that was different from other humans or yokai. The two main yokai races inhabited here, the united Tengu race and the scattered kappa clan, live a life equivalent to that of modern human society with their unique human-like spirit of invention and exploration. It forms a vivid contrast with the fact that most people in the world are still in the feudal era.

The youkai in Yokai Mountain are far more cheerful and united than any other race in Gensokyo, and with their unique advanced technology, they live a colorful modern life. This is due to the fact that when the Oni clan still lived in Gensokyo, it was a special society formed based on the society established by the Oni kings who led the Tengu race. However, it is also because of the strong sense of the same race, the youkai here are also quite repulsive to other races - especially the invaders, no matter who the other party is, they will do their best to drive them away, because the Yokai Mountain is full of all kinds of mysteries.

According to other rumors of youkai and humans, the interior of Yokai Mountain is a large cave in which the youkai live a paradise life that can only be found in the outside world: only the light energy produced by the sun for a day. It can automatically produce all the utensils needed for life, and the yokai only need to drink, read the newspaper, chat or play, and this cave can open the exit to the outside world that should be forbidden, so the yokai of Yokai Mountain do not need to interact with other yokai and humans, and live a comfortable life alone.

There are many similar rumors and legends, as far as Feng Longde heard when he was soaking in the tavern in the world as long as he rested these days, there were no less than forty different versions of the legend, which must be just everyone's speculation about the unknown situation.

Feng Longde didn't have much interest in this, he was more concerned with capturing all the Mao Yu as much as possible. By the way, after completing the clean-up task, I went to Huiyin and the Fog Rain family to get the next commission, which can be regarded as starting to make up for the deficit since entering Gensokyo.

This is because there are many minerals at the foot of Yokai Mountain. And the human world also needs the support of a large number of minerals, so the Tengu race and the kappa clan made an exception to allow the human inhabitants to operate in some of the mines they gave up at the foot of the mountain; This is obviously something that Shotimaru and Ji Haitang can only do, and other than that, other tengu or kappa will not notice this.

This was also heard in the tavern, but it was the information that Feng Longde was able to confirm after talking to the boss of the horse market that it was absolutely true: the father of the owner of the horse market had been involved in the signing of the transaction between the two parties in the first place. It can be regarded as a proof that the rumor that "you can live a life comparable to the outside world in the cave inside the mountain of youkai" is self-defeating.

Due to the fact that the mountain of monsters is far from the human realm, and the human inhabitants do not have the tireless and stronger undead horses that the Teutons possess, the mines there also built some houses, and many human miners and their families lived here for a long time, forming a de facto human village.

When Feng Longde and the others arrived there. All visible entrances to the mines were fenced off by wooden fences, each guarded by human miners armed with pickaxes and shovels, and the atmosphere of the entire area was condensed enough to wring out water.

"We are the Teutons who are here to solve the problem of Mao Yu, what is going on here?" Feng Longde rode his horse to the front, and when he was still some distance from the entrance, he stopped his horse, turned over and dismounted and walked over, "Where are the Mao Yu?"

"Teutonic people?" a strong Germanic miner looked at Feng Longde and the black-armored knights behind him, and seemed to be a little puzzled, "When did the village and town have such strong weapons?"

"We are new immigrants to Gensokyo, living in the Teutonic camp on the north side of the Outer Reaches of the World. After briefly explaining the origin of himself and the others, Feng Longde continued: "The people of the Shangbai Ze Huiyin and Wuyu families in the villages and towns have issued notices to reward Mao Yu who harasses human work everywhere with high commissions, so what is the situation here?"

After several miners looked at each other, one of them pointed to the entrance to the hole surrounded by fire: "Originally, everything was fine, but the first time I saw Mao Yu was when we were about to go to work one morning. A few of the workers who went in first came out with a sigh, saying that something had stung them, and after we went in collectively, we found that almost all the places were occupied by groups of Mao Yu, so we could only close the mine, stop working, and then stay idle. ”

"Don't you have a solution for yourself?" Feng Longde looked at the bonfires. "It seems that you have discovered that the flames can stop Mao Yu from coming out to make trouble, so why can't you continue to work?"

"Mao Yu is afraid of fire, and we have tried to clean them up with flames before. One of the miners shrugged, "But those torches can't burn the jade to death in one fell swoop, and they won't die in a matter of seconds until they burn their fluff, and as a result, a large group of jade on fire is even more of a threat to ourselves, and many of us have been burned by it." ”

"Then why don't you just set fire to the mines?" asked Yarman.

Without waiting for Feng Longde to say anything, the miners looked at Yarman with the expression of a fool: "Are you crazy? If you burn the mines, you can burn all the Mao Yu to death, but then we will have to spend months or even a year to rebuild; We're all going to have to be blown up. ”

Yarman was speechless, smiled wryly, and stepped aside.

"Open the fence and let us go inside, our armor is basically completely immune to Mao Yu's attacks. Feng Longde knocked on the fence, "If we can solve it, you can also resume work as soon as possible." ”

"Okay, good luck to you. The miners looked at each other for a moment, and finally moved the fence to the side, "You need to pay attention to two things: the first is not to try to light the jade with fire. The second point is that the pit is a little prone to hypoxia, remember to feel uncomfortable and quickly climb up to breathe. ”

"Thanks for the reminder. Feng Longde nodded. After making a gesture, everyone walked towards the dark hole.

☆

The tunnels inside the mine are lined with torch stands and small platforms for oil lamps, but the lighting has not been used for some time due to the infestation of Mao Yu, making it dark along the way.

The knights of the Guard are all black knights, and the vision of complete darkness is for their eyes to see the world completely through their souls. Although Feng Longde had not yet evolved to be able to view from a 100% lightless environment or develop the function of bio-infrared, he would not be able to stumble here and around by relying on his soul scanning and peering into the field of vision of the Guard Knights through soul connection.

"Everyone stopped where they were, checking their weapons and shields. After entering the pit where Mao Yu was about to gather, Feng Longde said in the soul connection. "Make sure you have electricity in your weapons. ”

That's right, the weapon equipped by the big guy is an electric fly swatter In the cultivated area to prove that this kind of thing is an artifact, Feng Longde had to come here with this strange weapon - although the weapon is funny, but it is not enough to clean up Mao Yu.

After confirming that the electric fly swatters in everyone's hands were all charged, and everyone had taken a spare battery, under Feng Longde's order, everyone waved the electric fly swatter flowing from the current, covered their faces with shields, and rushed down.

The Mao Jade gathered in the various pits was far more numerous than the Mao Jade seen in the various fields yesterday, and it seemed that because there was no way out, these Mao Jade were far more aggressive than their counterparts in the cultivated area, making the battle even more difficult for everyone.

There was an undercurrent in the darkness, accompanied by the crackling sound of electricity and the pungent smell of burnt fluff, and a large amount of wool jade was piled up at the bottom of the mine, either dead or wounded, and the rest began to flee in all directions.

It's also strange to say: although the fungal creatures like Mao Yu have a series of biological instincts, such as knowing how to attack other creatures and flee when they encounter irresistible dangers, they have no soul, just like puppets.

After the failure of using a soul attack on Mao Yu yesterday, Feng Longde took the time to study it during his break, and found that almost all insect creatures and fungal creatures like Mao Yu were generally soulless, just like ignorant plants and trees.

This phenomenon made Feng Longde consult Caroline about this, and Caroline replied to this as follows: combining the knowledge of modern biology, such as fungi, insects, arthropods, and smaller life forms such as bacteria and viruses, they are all low-level life forms, have souls and no souls, and naturally cannot react to the attacks of the soul system - any soul system ability acts on the soul that can react intelligently to the outside world, and the soul that only instinctively reacts is completely exempt from these situations.

According to Caroline's explanation, in terms of the essence of the soul, the soul is divided into 'spirit' and 'soul', with 'spirit' being the essence and 'soul' being the form. Spirits without souls cannot exist on their own, just like the race of life, and souls without souls are just empty shells, like the skeletons and corpses in the Teutonic camp with human skins.

For example, those skeletons and corpse witches who have no self-consciousness, let alone intelligence, they have souls but no souls, no matter how strong their souls are, they can only be regarded as walking corpses, and only when they have a complete soul can they be regarded as truly complete lives, and can be regarded as real beings with self-awareness and self-thinking.

After clearing out the piles of Mao Yu gathered in all the pits in this mine, just as Feng Longde was waiting for the finishing guard knights to clean up the scattered Mao Yu, a faint flash of light flashed in the pit in the distance, and then fell silent.

Feng Longde didn't care, after all, the knights of the guard who were in charge of finishing the end were attacking Mao Yu with an electric fly swatter, but Yarman seemed to sense something, and his right hand silently touched the hilt of the sword on his waist: "Your Majesty, there are others here." ”

"Who could it be? There is only these Mao Yu here besides us. Feng Longde was a little puzzled, but for the sake of insurance, he was also ready to draw his sword out of the sheath at any time.

"There was a flash of light, and if I was right, it looked like the light from the flash when I was taking a picture on my phone. Yarman said in the soul connection, and also contacted the other knights of the guard who were waiting for orders through the soul connection: "Except for the people who finish it, go and have a look." ”

In order not to startle the snake, Feng Longde and the knights of the guards stood up quietly, silently drew their knights' long swords, and walked slowly towards the place where Yarman felt it was okay.

It seemed that Yarman's caution was correct: as if sensing that someone was surrounding him, a tall, slender black figure suddenly popped out of that corner, and judging by his movements, he probably wanted to force his way out.

Feng Longde waved his hand, and the knights of the guard held the knight's sword in their right hand, and their left hand neatly sacrificed the Netherworld Flame that was so dark that it was impossible to see, and aimed at the figure in unison.

"Who's there?" Feng Longde shouted, his voice echoing throughout the mine, "If you don't answer, we'll automatically assume that you're the one behind driving Mao Yu to harass the humans." (To be continued......)
