Chapter 33: Merit
"How did the enemy find you, and how did they track you? How do you know they've tracked them down? By a pond, Shi Zheng asked Tang Shan with some curiosity while weaving a bamboo basket.
"They rely on divination, a unique ability of the transcendent, and when the distance is close, they do not need the transcendent to cast a spell in person, but only need to use a magic weapon that also has the ability to divinate to find people.
As for how I knew they were tracking, it was a sense inherited from my bloodline, and I had a certain sense of everything that was about to happen, especially danger.
This ability has allowed me to avoid many crises, and the last time we met the stone monster, it was also by my perception ability that we were able to escape back to Jiang Cheng, otherwise it would be impossible for a few of us junior martial artists to escape under the hands of the great grandmaster-level stone monster. ”
Shi Zheng nodded and said with a smile: "Since you can sense danger, then you should feel safe on the contrary, that is to say, when you are close to me, do you feel safe?" ”
Tang Shan was stunned for a moment, did not answer Shi Zheng's question, but pointed to the back of Shi Zheng's preparation and said, "It looks very ugly, what is the use of this?" ”
Shi Zheng tightened the last bamboo strip, picked up the memorized basket that had been compiled and looked at it, nodded and smiled: "It's really a bit ugly, after all, I just made it with the method in my memory, and I didn't actually get this thing."
As for the usefulness, it is naturally used to load things, and there are not many materials on the body, especially various seasonings, which are ready to be collected along the way, so you need something that is easy to carry. ”
Tang Shan pointed to the calf and said, "You can hang it with a rope or a cloth bag, so that it is easier to travel, and you can also save more physical strength, we are now on the way to escape." ”
The calf stared at Tang Shan with puffed eyes, Shi Zheng looked a little funny, patted the calf's belly and said: "It is growing its body, it is not the time to move forward with weight, it doesn't matter if I carry something, just get used to it in three or two days, don't worry, it won't delay the journey." ”
Tie his back a few times, Shi Zheng tried it on his back, nodded and said, "Well, it's good, it's just right, let's get something to eat." ”
Tang Shan nodded, looked at the waterhole next to him, and said, "There should be a lot of gains from listening to the movement, but I don't know if the fish in there is delicious." ”
"Whether it's good or not, you have to eat it to know." Shi Zheng said as he came to the waterhole and began to collect the rope.
This is the campsite for the two of them today, Tang Shan explored the surroundings, it was relatively safe, there was a waterhole nearby, and it was convenient to get water.
Shi Zheng saw that there was a fish in it and suggested changing the taste, and after obtaining Tang Shan's consent, he put a few straight hooks in it, but unfortunately the fish in it were very cautious, and they were not as fierce as the eels in the ginger water.
So after Shi Zheng made a straight hook, he made up a back basket on the side, and the bamboo strips were broken with Tang Shan's help, and he was a martial artist with good swordsmanship, and the bamboo strips that Shi Zheng needed were broken in a few clicks.
With Tang Shan's cultivation, he could naturally hear whether Shi Zheng's straight hook had a fish, and sure enough, when Shi Zheng retracted and began to reel in the line, the fishing line was immediately stretched straight, judging from the force coming from the fishing line, the size of the fish stuck by the straight hook was not small.
After some hard work, Shi Zheng dragged a fish of more than ten catties to the shore, and Tang Shan on the side had already put away the other five fishing lines, and at the same time pulled up five fish bigger than Shi Zheng.
Bringing the big fish ashore, Shi Zheng sneered and said: "I can't imagine that I am still the youngest, six big fish are enough to eat one meal tonight, do you know what kind of fish this is?" The main thing is whether it can be eaten? ”
Tang Shan nodded, "I can eat it, it's just ordinary whitebait, the taste is okay, and the energy of the fish is not bad, which is a good thing for us." ”
Whether the creatures of the Infinite Realm are good or not is usually calculated by the energy on their bodies, after all, the energy absorption efficiency of cultivators eating ordinary food is naturally not high.
A junior martial artist like Tang Shan basically doesn't eat much ordinary food, like pork from the farm, a junior martial artist has to eat at least ten catties or more to fill his stomach, and if it is energy-rich exotic beast meat, one catty meal is enough.
"It's a good thing."
"You're obsessed with eating?"
Shi Zheng sighed and said, "If you have nothing to do all day long, you can have a little fun by eating." ”
Tang Shan frowned and said, "Cultivation, don't you need to cultivate the Divine Dao you have figured out?" ”
Shi Zheng looked at Tang Shan, smiled meaningfully, and said, "I want to cultivate, but I don't know how to cultivate. ”
"And how did you get all that energy?"
"Good deeds have to come." Shi Zheng replied casually while cleaning up the fish.
"Do good?" Tang Shan's face was full of surprise.
Shi Zheng nodded and confirmed: "Every time I do something good, others will be more or less grateful to me, and at the same time, there will be a little spiritual energy contributed to me, and there will be so much spiritual energy accumulated in a few months." ”
Speaking of this, Shi Zheng couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then looked up at the sky.
The colored energy is the seven emotions and six desires of others, and the white energy is the belief of others, so that the golden energy is only possible with merit.
"What are you thinking?"
"Oh, nothing." Shi Zheng smiled, and then said: "I, I plan to do more good things in the future and accumulate more energy for myself." ”
The two of them have been walking through the forest for five days, and based on Shi Zheng's current footsteps, they have walked at least nearly a thousand miles, and the straight-line distance from Jiang Cheng is at least more than two hundred miles.
However, there are still wisps of spiritual energy transmitted every day, and the amount is not less than before, which makes Shi Zheng happy at the same time, but he also doesn't understand how the spiritual energy is transmitted.
Why is there such a big loss of spiritual energy when you take out of the sea of consciousness, and there is no loss when you enter the sea of consciousness, well, to be precise, there is no loss in distance.
As for whether there is a loss, Shi Zheng is not sure, after all, Shi Zheng only knows how much spiritual energy he has received, and he doesn't know how much spiritual energy others have generated.
If others produce ten parts of spiritual energy, and you only receive one, then the loss will be great.
When the sun was setting, an uninvited guest came to the gate of Jiangcheng, who was not tall or strong, and stood there casually, and no one around him dared to approach.
Even if it was a martial artist, as soon as he approached, his face immediately changed and he retreated, which made ordinary people even more frightened.
