Chapter 61 Red Fruit Falling from the Sky
After the three golden bamboos matured, they were soon cut down.
Zhao Xing began to make the straw man patiently.
Ever since he defeated Zong Shichang in the Beginning of Autumn assessment, he had not neglected his straw man technique, and practiced it for a considerable period of time. He would spend two to three hours making straw men in Xue Wenzhong's backyard every day.
Among them, the Strong Straw Man made the fastest progress, because Zhao Xing felt that the Strong Straw Man was quite useful. Not to mention fighting, even moving bricks, plowing the fields and so on, the Strong Straw Man was also the first choice.
Now Zhao Xing has five kinds of straw man techniques, and the straw man technique is the sixth level.
The winding straw man is the fifth turn
The God of Walking Grass Man is the third turn
The thorny grass man has only the second transformation.
But the powerful straw man has reached the seventh level!
"Three Vajra Bamboos can probably make 15 Vajra, but now it's been more than two hours, I might as well plant them again."
"There are enough green vines. Three vines are enough to make forty or fifty entangled straw men."
Zhao Xing took out three more golden bamboo seedlings from the bamboo box and planted them. Then he controlled the clouds and rain to help them grow vigorously.
The soil fertility of Donghu Mountain is quite sufficient. Even if they have been planted once, Zhao Xing estimates that the three golden bamboo seedlings will be mature in four or five hours at most.
The moving clouds covered the area below the cliff, and Zhao Xing began to concentrate on making the straw man.
[You made a straw puppet (strong), proficiency +5]
【Straw Puppet (Great)】
[Proficiency: 7201/9999]
【Effect: Indestructible, infinitely powerful. 】
[You made a straw puppet (strong), proficiency +8]
【Straw Puppet (Great)】
[Proficiency: 7209/9999]
【Effect: Indestructible, infinitely powerful. 】
The Straw Man Technique is easy to learn but difficult to master. After the Strong Straw Man reaches the seventh level, it no longer provides proficiency for [Every Tree and Grass Sees Enemies].
Even if the material used is diamond bamboo, the proficiency given by the powerful grass man itself is only in the single digits.
Zhao Xing's understanding of magic entered a smooth transition period.
If he wants to complete the Great Straw Man in a short period of time, he must use more and better materials.
"Go hide outside."
After the four powerful Vajras came out, Zhao Xing let them lie on the ground not far away and act as Voldemort.
Then he pulled out two green vines and made two fifth-level straw men. He hid in the trees and blended in with the environment.
With the protection, Zhao Xing devoted himself more fully to making the straw puppet.
I was so absorbed in my concentration that I didn’t notice the passage of time.
Zhao Xing reached behind him, but found nothing.
He discovered that he had run out of materials.
"Whoo~"
Zhao Xing let out a long breath, straightened up and rubbed his eyes.
"It took an hour, but the fifteen Vajra statues were finally completed."
Slow work produces fine results. These fifteen powerful Vajra statues are all extraordinary and full of charm.
"Kacha~"
Zhao Xing picked a handful of green vine fruits to satisfy his hunger, then lay on the green vines and looked at the sky.
Tianyuan pears should be eaten at critical times. It would be a waste to eat them now.
"I don't know if Zi Yu and Qian Dong have entered the mountain. I didn't seem to see them this morning. Shen Zhui from the Wu Division is at the seventh level of Ju Yuan. He has good relationships with people in the Wu Division and has invited others to join him. There shouldn't be any problems."
In his spare time, Zhao Xing unconsciously thought of his friends and even worried about Zong Shichang.
"I wonder if this young master has come down the mountain, huh? Why am I thinking about him? Is it really true that he is too soft-hearted to repay someone who has given him a favor?"
Turning over, Zhao Xing looked towards the mountain stream in the distance.
Suddenly a black spot appeared in the sky, attracting Zhao Xing's attention.
The spell of bright eyes was activated, and Zhao Xing looked at it from a distance.
I saw someone riding a horse flying over the mountain stream. The figure was holding a spear and wearing armor, looking quite heroic.
"Hmm? The bamboo horse leaps over the stream and gallops through the air. Is this the expert?" "Why is he jumping around?"
Zhao Xing looked at him in confusion.
He saw the bamboo horse knight jumping back and forth in the mountain stream, and he saw him jumping back and forth three or four times.
In mid-air, the knight stood up on his horse's back and looked around, as if looking for something.
"Is he collecting spiritual ideas?"
“I don’t know what he found.”
The spiritual beauty in the mountains may be a tree, an object, or even a handful of soil or a cloud.
Zhao Xing's eyes flickered as he stared at the sky, but found nothing unusual.
"It's too far away to sense."
After a moment, he looked away and stopped paying attention.
There are three levels of spiritual power: upper, middle and lower. The higher the level, the vaguer the perception, and it may even be difficult to recognize.
The man who was able to defeat the eighth-level Juyuan warrior hired by Zong Shichang might have reached the ninth level.
It’s better to watch less.
In the blink of an eye, it was dusk, and the three golden bamboos planted by Zhao Xingxin were almost mature.
"The destructive power of wild growth is still too great. Even if Donghu Mountain is full of vitality, if we replant in the same place, the second growth will be much slower." Zhao Xing said secretly.
"Fortunately, it's almost ripe. Once it's ripe and we've made the straw man, we'll move to another place. We'll have a good rest tonight and recover our strength, and then we'll go hiking again tomorrow morning."
Patiently waiting for the golden bamboo to mature.
suddenly--
"Wow~"
The branches of the golden bamboo were shaking, and the sound of bamboo leaves rubbing against each other came into my ears, as if something had fallen down.
"No way, something fell again?" Zhao Xing became alert, but the next moment he heard that the thing that fell should not be big.
At least not personally.
"Maybe some rocks have fallen off the cliff?"
Zhao Xing approached the King Kong bamboo and looked in the direction of the sound.
I saw a fist-sized, bright red fruit stuck on the branch of the golden bamboo.
"Thump~thump~"
When Zhao Xing saw the fruit, his heart began to beat involuntarily.
On a whim!
It’s the feeling after meeting Lingxiu!
"Damn, spiritual beauty fell from the sky? This fruit is actually formed by the spiritual beauty condensed from the mountains?"
However, before Zhao Xing got close.
"Wow~"
"Wow~"
There were two more sounds.
Two red fruits fell at Zhao Xing's feet.
One of them was only the size of a fist, but the other was as big as a baby's head!
"..."
Looking at the three red fruits in front of him, Zhao Xing couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Judging from the perception, these three red fruits are at least of lower grade and elegant quality, and the largest one may even have reached the middle grade level.
"Is the second-level luck so strong? I haven't even climbed the mountain, but I can find Lingxiu right at the foot of the mountain?"
Zhao Xing's heart couldn't stop beating. The fragrance of the fruit made him feel refreshed just by smelling it. The energy he had consumed when making the straw man was actually restored by half.
"Thanks for the gift from nature." Zhao Xing smiled from ear to ear, and he bent down to pick up the red fruit.
However, at this moment, the almanac in his arms suddenly turned the page.
At the same time, a soft female voice came from the other side of the stream.
"Brother, you are here. It's been so hard for me to find you~"
