C53 Grain cart

Arriving at the backyard, Su Bao Zhang walked over and asked: "What did Lord Village Head say?"

Yang Junshan waved his hand and said helplessly, "My father doesn't really believe it!"

"Then what are you going to do?" Su Bao Zhang asked.

Yang Junshan thought for a while, "Brother Bao Zhang, I need your help with something!"

Su Bao Zhang's spirit was lifted as he said: "What is it, just say it!"

Yang Junshan took out five jade coins, thought for a while and took out two more, then said: "Brother Bao Zhang, I will give you a list later. You have to buy all the things on the list for me in the next two days, remember, you have to memorize the list and buy things separately, so don't let anyone notice."

Seeing Yang Junshan take out seven jade coins in one go, a surprised look appeared on Su Bao Zhang's face. He had never seen so much money in his life, so he hesitated to ask, "Isn't this too much? Is it something the village's master arranged?"

Obviously, Su Bao Zhang didn't think Yang Junshan should have that much jade coins, so Yang Junshan could only say, "My dad knows about this, so let me handle it. You just need to follow the list I gave you and buy it. And these jade coins might not be enough."

In the evening, Yang Junshan was in his room, holding the red rusted ore that An Xia had left for him in his hand as he prepared to open the stone.

It was not easy to open the stone. The rusted ore was extremely hard because it contained a trace of fine iron. Moreover, it might damage the spirit jade during the process of opening the stone.

However, Yang Junshan had his own special method. He first used a knife to carve a few simple runes on the surface of the ore, and then poured the spiritual energy in his body into the runes. The moment the runes were activated, a cracking sound could be heard, and cracks began to appear on the surface of the ore.

Yang Junshan used all his strength to rub the ore in his hand, and actually rubbed off a layer of gravel on the cracked ore. After opening the spiritual cavities, Yang Junshan's strength rose again, otherwise he wouldn't have used his bare hands to open the stone, but this way, he could better protect the spiritual jades inside without using any other tools.

After this layer of crushed rock was still in the ore layer, Yang Junshan could only draw runes again and break the rock with his bare hands. After three times, a dense luster was finally revealed after the broken pieces fell off.

Yang Junshan wiped the sweat on his forehead and said, "Not bad, there won't be much more spiritual jade left if we continue to remove it."

Watching his parents carry the packhorse beast to the foot of the Western Mountain so early in the morning, Yang Junshan could only sigh helplessly. His father obviously didn't care about the locust plague, not to mention now, his mother had already entered the Martial Disciple Stage.

It was not only the two of them who were completely focused on the cultivation of the spirit farmland. It was likely that the other two Martial Disciples in the village were also the same; they needed to seize every moment they could to cultivate the spirit farmland before the spirit valley matured.

After entering his father's room, there was a long iron bow hanging on the wall. It was the Seven Stones Iron Body Bow that Yang Tian had previously used. However, after he had advanced to Martial Disciple, the bow that hung in the room had rarely been removed.

Yang Junshan felt the weight of the iron bow in his hand, which weighed twenty to thirty catties, and the thin bowstring shined with a crystalline luster. Obviously, this was no ordinary thing, with a pull of his hand, the longbow slowly unfurled, and compared to this bow, Yang Junshan's three carved flower bows were like noodles.

Seeing that there was an arrow pot full of arrows hanging on the side of the longbow, Yang Junshan took it off and took a look, thinking that his luck was not bad, the thirty arrows inside were all made of refined iron, each arrow had a simple rune engraved on it, in coordination with the seven stone longbow surprise attack, it could even shoot through a cultivator's magic shield.

Leaning the longbow on his back, Yang Junshan thought to himself, "Old man, I will take this longbow and this pot of Hundred Smelting Talisman arrows without telling you!"

In the pomegranate forest and the Spirit Spring Cave, Tigress had awoken and was tearing apart the hare and pheasant left behind by Yang Junshan. Although she still looked defeated, she knew that her recovery was good.

He patted on the tiger-girl's head and ordered: "I'm going to take a trip these next two days, and you'll have to stay here and recuperate. I'll leave enough food for you, so don't run around while you're injured. Wait for me to come back."

The tiger-girl cried out as if she was protesting. She even wanted to stand up, but her injured body lacked strength, so she could only lie on the ground and look at Yang Junshan with a wronged expression.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely take you out to play when you're better!"

After leaving the cave, Yang Junshan headed south. If he remembered correctly from his previous life, this locust disaster had come from the south and had engulfed more than half of Yutang, reducing the output of the spiritual valleys in Yutang by half.

As for the southernmost point of the town, it was the mountain barbarian village. The mountain barbarian village was located at the foot of the mountain, and the Mt. Qu was the boundary between Mengyu County and Jinyu County, which was a part of the same county.

In his previous life, after the giant locust disaster occurred, the six counties of Yuxian County were the hardest hit by it, and the giant locust swarm came from the south. However, Zhang County, which was located in the southern border of Yuxian County, was affected by the locust disaster, but the area affected was very small, so from Yang Junshan's point of view, the biggest suspect of the giant locust disaster was in this Mt.

On the way south, Yang Junshan had seen several grain carts transporting the Spirit Valley to the grass market, and some of them were even heading to various villages.

When they arrived outside of the village, Yang Junshan saw two grain wagons leaving the village. Unable to suppress his curiosity, Yang Junshan walked up to the middle-aged man and asked, "Uncle, where are we sending this Spirit Valley?"

The driver looked at Yang Junshan warily, and seeing that he was only a half grown child, he felt relieved and asked, "Are you from the village?"

Yang Junshan pointed to Zhang Gong behind him and said, "I'm learning how to hunt. My father told me that the Crooked Martial Mountain has the most prey, so I wanted to go in and take a look. However, I saw a lot of grain carriages heading to the spiritual valley along the way, so I was curious and wanted to ask."

The driver heard that Yang Junshan was going to Qu Wu Shan, so he quickly waved his hand and kindly advised: "Young lad, Qu Wu Shan is not like any other place, where there are high mountains and dense forests, and also the border with Jinyu County and Zhang County, although there are many prey, but there are also many fierce beasts, and there are even some beasts that occasionally appear. Those old hunters need to be careful when entering and exiting Qu Wu Shan, it seems like you just learned how to hunt, that's not a place you can go to."

Yang Junshan blinked and said, "Uncle, you still haven't told me why there are so many food trucks."

The driver laughed, "Of course it's to sell the Spirit Valley! The Spirit Valley on the ground is growing very well and is in good shape this year. Seeing as it will be a year of abundant harvest, the price of the food will definitely fall, and at this time, the price of the food will be quite good. Quickly, sell your family's old rations and make room for new ones. "

Yang Junshan thought for a while, and asked again, "Uncle, who is the person in the town collecting food? The Heaven Shaking Sect, or the powerful and well-known families in the county or county?"

The driver shook his head and replied, "I don't know about that. They are strangers anyway, but since the lord guard has agreed to their mission, there is no problem with their identities."

Yang Junshan made a sound of 'oh'. Since even the guardian of the Barren Mountain Town knew about this, then there should be no problem. In that case, could it be that the Heaven Shaking Sect was secretly collecting foodstuffs? Thinking about the Rust Stone, Yang Junshan thought to himself, Could it be that the Heaven Shaking Sect needs a large amount of jade coins to buy the Spirit Valley?

However, he quickly denied this idea. If the Heaven Shaking Sect wanted to buy the Spirit Valley, they could do it all over the county. However, in the Barren Town where Yang Junshan was located, he had never heard of the Spirit Valley being purchased at a high price.

Yang Junshan always felt that this time, there was something fishy about the Spirit Valley buyers. Moreover, on the way here, Yang Junshan saw many grain carts transporting Spirit Valley people from many villages in the town, so he was afraid that most of the food left in the Spirit Farmer's possession had already been bought.

Thinking about how the giant locust swarm would erupt and devour the Spirit Valley in the Spirit Field before it could be harvested, Yang Junshan felt that this matter of purchasing the Spirit Valley from the small town was like a deadly scheme.

Thinking about this, Yang Junshan reminded again, "Uncle, I came all the way from the north and found grasshoppers in groups in the wilderness. I'm afraid there will be a plague of locusts this year. If so many spiritual valleys are sold, what should I do?"

The driver sneered, "Child, what's there to be afraid of about the locust plague? Which village doesn't have one or two Martial Disciples? When we join forces, we would be able to destroy more than half of the locust plague …"

Yang Junshan was very familiar with this view of locust plague. Whether it was Yang Tian Gang, Su Bao Zhang, or the other villagers, they all had the same opinion of the locust plague as this driver.

"What if this year's locust plague is very powerful, and not even Martial Disciples could kill it?"

"You can't even kill a Martial Disciple?" The driver seemed to have heard the joke and said, "Could it be that a group of vicious beasts will fly over?"

It was not just a group of vicious beasts. Although the strength of a single giant locust was far from being comparable to a Mountain Drill, who could withstand the overwhelming pouncing beasts?

Yang Junshan tried to warn the driver not to rush to sell the Spirit Valley, and the driver also tried to warn Yang Junshan not to enter too deep into Mt. Qu, but the result was obvious.
