Chapter 232 The Home of the Insect Death Ray
"This is truly... the legendary life of Lang Muzhi!"
Jia Xitong couldn't help but sigh, "It probably never imagined in its life that it would be named 'Insect Death Ray'."
Shang Yanting glanced at the chick that jumped off the roof and ran over—Shen Feng probably never imagined in her past life that she would be named Tie Danhua (Iron Egg Flower).
Ever since he guessed that the Iron Egg Flower might be the Divine Phoenix, Shang Yanting had consciously investigated records about the Divine Phoenix.
[The divine phoenix was born accompanied by the Six Rabbit True Fires.]
[Of noble character, it drinks only the morning dew and the essence of life, eats only tender bamboo shoots, and perches only on thousand-year-old trees.]
Although much of the content in the book does not match the actual situation, its appearance in the Six Rabbit True Fire, its ability to dominate three demonic beasts, and its ability to make the Langmu branches sprout are enough to show that it is a divine phoenix.
"Come on, Egg Drop, eat more."
While Shang Yanting was still pondering the matter, Jia Xitong had already started making poop with the squeaky fruit.
"Chirp chirp chirp!"
The iron egg flower fluttered its wings and pecked fiercely, almost burying its head in the fruit.
"Niu Chuanchuan, do you still have this branch?"
Shang Yanting turned around and asked.
"I've already used up everything I brought."
He used it quite a lot back in his days at St. Capital Academy, "but he probably still has some at home."
Should we let the precious Langmu branches be completely reduced to ashes in Niu Niu's home by insects?
no!
Heading to Niu Niu's hometown is truly a treasure trove of natural resources; action must be taken immediately!
##
Then
Shang Yanting took Jia Xitong, Niu Chuanchuan, Danhua, Giant Stone Rhinoceros, Facai, and Little Grey with him. He originally wanted to leave the magical beast at home, but since no one was home, he had no choice but to take the magical beast and its family with him.
The continent of Aotian is extremely vast, and Niu Niu's hometown is two Holy Capital Academy distances away from the continent.
The two places are far apart, so Niu Niu hasn't been home for eight years!
Sitting on the water-cloud boat, I feel apprehensive as I approach my hometown.
We've finally arrived.
Surrounded by high mountains and vast grasslands, when the water-cloud boat landed, all that could be seen were large herds of cattle on the ground.
Amidst the herd of cattle, a child with a small braid and a silver ring around his neck stared blankly at the sky. It wasn't until Shang Yanting landed the Water Cloud Boat that he snapped out of his daze, picked up his cattle whip, and hurriedly ran home.
"Dad, a huge thing is flying down from the sky!"
In the thatched house
A middle-aged man in his fifties or sixties hurried out, followed by a string of people of varying ages.
"Second Brother!"
A young man who looked remarkably like Niu Chuanchuan shouted.
"Father, elder brother, younger brothers!"
Yes, he's home.
Aside from his parents, he had a long list of brothers: Niu Dachuan, Niu Sanchuan, Niu Sichuan... all the way to Niu Bachuan.
She also has three younger sisters: Da Ni, Nini, and San Ni.
A family of thirteen—a huge clan!
Niu Chuanchuan, as the most successful second son in the family, was welcomed by the whole family.
"Yes, I am now a cultivator at the Martial Spirit Realm, which is higher than the son of Master Peng in town."
"I'm studying at Dingtian Academy now, and it's really impressive. Once I graduate and establish myself, I'll take you all with me."
"This is Brother Yan Qing. He is even more outstanding than me and has helped me a lot at the academy."
Niu Chuanchuan answered their questions one by one, and then revealed the purpose of his return: "Brother Yan came to collect all the dead insects. How many insects are left in our area?"
"The bugs are all dead... Everyone basically used it all up in the past few years."
They all raise cattle.
Especially in summer, when the temperature rises.
When mosquitoes are rampant, people use insecticides to repel them. Over the years, their family has used them all.
To find out, the mother went door-to-door to ask the other neighbors.
People gathered in small groups, and in the end, they only managed to collect seven small twigs. The shortest one was only the size of a thumbnail and had black charcoal on it, suggesting it had been pulled from the fire.
The 20-meter-long giant tree was burned down to just a few small branches by a group of villagers who were unaware of the truth.
If we had come any later, the little branches might have been gone.
Shang Yanting gave all his subordinates spirit stones as compensation.
You can't have too many spirit stones.
In places where gold, silver, and copper coins are the main forms of trade, having too many spirit stones can actually attract robbery.
"Take the stuff and leave?"
Looking at Niu Chuanchuan, who had finally returned home, Niu's parents asked him with some reluctance.
Niu Chuanchuan was also reluctant, but he had to see what Yan Qing would do.
"In that case, I'll take this time to bother you, Uncle and Aunt."
Jia Xitong looked up and stood behind him, showing that she could put herself in his shoes. Her host was becoming more and more humane!
The true system is blind and cannot see it, nor does it increase the good/evil value.
night
To celebrate Niu Chuanchuan's return home, his parents specially slaughtered a cow, filling the outdoor space with the aroma of beef.
There was only one child in his family. The older children liked to follow Niu Chuanchuan around, while the younger children looked curiously at the four magical beasts that Jia Xitong had brought.
The giant rock rhinoceros is the most popular animal here.
"Wow, this cow looks really scary!"
"It's huge!"
"The meat is so firm."
"They must have been fed exceptionally well..."
—The authoritative certification from a professional cattle farmer made Jia Xitong, who was packing beef jerky next to her, feel flattered.
##
Shang Yanting didn't stay for Niu Chuanchuan; he stayed for Lang Muzhi.
The next morning
He left the monsters there and sent Niu Chuanchuan to the place where the giant Langmu tree had been dug out.
Using his childhood memories, Niu Chuanchuan eventually found himself in a remote place.
At the foot of a mountain.
"This is the place where all the insects died... the Langmu tree."
Niu Chuanchuan gestured back and forth, indicating that the area had now been transformed into farmland, filled with overgrown grass. Many cattle liked to gather here to graze, unafraid even of strangers.
Shang Yanting closed his eyes.
His divine sense, accompanied by spiritual power, covered the entire mountain and grassland. His senses were amplified countless times, and he received all kinds of sounds.
"Moo..."
"Chirp chirp chirp, chirp chirp chirp..."
"Don't panic, Erni. Your second brother has made something of himself now, and he will definitely find good husbands for you three sisters in the future..."
He ignored these unimportant sounds and probed the surrounding mountains and underground with his divine sense. In the midst of the utter silence, he suddenly heard the faint sound of spring water falling inside the mountain and the sound of underground water flowing.
Shang Yanting opened his eyes. "Are there any more Light Talismans in the hollow areas inside the mountain?"
"That's all, I'll draw two more right now."
Jia Xitong took out paper and pen from her pocket.
Just as they were about to go in, Niu Ba and his men stopped them. "Erwa, what's wrong with you? Why did you bring your friend to this place? There are man-eating monsters inside. If you anger them, they might come out and eat the whole village!"
The old man and the villagers resolutely refused to let them in, saying, "The monsters inside have eaten several cultivators!"
