Chapter 1077: Eerie Green Lamp
Luo Chen could not be kept.
Just as he came with the wind, he would eventually leave with the wind.
This truth, Jing Lan already understood when Luo Chen proposed to go to Qingshan Town.
She couldn't force it, she could only say okay.
It was just that there were some inexplicable feelings in her heart, which were completely suppressed by her.
Luo Chen seemed to know nothing, or pretended not to know, just doing what he could do as usual.
Autumn harvest and grain cutting, drying grain.
With his help, in just a few days, the not-so-much grain was harvested.
In order to celebrate and to comfort, Jing Lan took time to go to Qingshan Town, saying that she wanted to cut some meat and hit some wine back.
Luo Chen was not idle either, cutting some trees and picking back some dried rice straw, intending to repair the dilapidated roof.
Under the scorching sun, an old man leaning on a cane passed by the door tremblingly, and seeing the man on the roof, he started chatting.
"That one from A-Lan's house..."
"Just call me Luo Chen."
Luo Chen recognized the other party, it was the neighbor next door, surnamed Pu, and everyone in the village called him Uncle Pu San.
Jing Lan had mentioned before that the villager who was injured by the new manager of the smoke workshop was him.
Uncle Pu San sat in the shade to avoid the scorching sunlight, looking at Luo Chen and said with relief: "It's always different to have a man in the house. In previous years, A-Lan would probably not have harvested 30% of the crops by this time. Unlike now, with your help, not only is the grain harvested, but the house can also be repaired. In the future, you will support each other and go on, A-Lan will not be alone anymore."
Luo Chen didn't fear the scorching sun, knocking the carved wooden wedges into the beams.
Hearing the old man's chattering, he asked casually: "Has Jing Lan always been alone?"
Uncle Pu San sighed with emotion, "Yes, she is an orphan, abandoned by her parents, and raised by the village. This child is kind-hearted and hardworking, and everyone helps her a lot on weekdays, so she survived with difficulty. But what is it to live alone? With you here, I see that she is much happier, and she has been learning to dress up recently."
Luo Chen was silent, and then changed the subject.
"I heard Jing Lan mention the three great natural disasters, but I have never understood the Mist of Destruction. I wonder if you have heard of it?"
Uncle Pu San scratched his head, "I don't know much about this, I only heard that there is such a thing, but no one in the village has seen it for a hundred years. I heard that every time the Mist of Destruction appears, the thick fog will cover the whole world, and there will be all kinds of strange beasts. Like our village built on the mountain, it is also based on tradition to prevent beast attacks."
"Beasts?"
Luo Chen subconsciously frowned.
"Okay, it's too hot outside, I'll go back first, let's talk when we have time."
Uncle Pu San patted his butt, got up, and walked tremblingly towards home.
His movements were very slow, obviously he was not lightly injured by the new manager of the smoke workshop, and he hadn't fully recovered after a few months.
Luo Chen squatted on the roof, looking into the distance, and could clearly see a figure returning with a smile from the foot of the mountain.
Dinner was very sumptuous.
At least it was the most sumptuous meal Luo Chen had eaten since coming to this world.
Not only were there vegetables and meat, but also wine.
Although the alcohol content of that wine was not high and it didn't contain any spiritual energy, it was quite soft at the entrance.
A man and a woman ate silently, Luo Chen didn't speak, and Jing Lan didn't know what to say.
Until they finished eating and put down their bowls and chopsticks, Jing Lan took the initiative to speak.
"In two days, I will take you to Qingshan Town... By the way, I will also go to the smoke workshop to take some work that can be done at home."
Luo Chen responded without raising his head: "Okay!"
After simple washing, the sky was already dark.
Unlike the heat of the day, the village at night was quite cold, especially near the ground.
I don't know how Jing Lan slept on the straw mat in the corner before.
Luo Chen naturally didn't care about this temperature, just like these days, he sat cross-legged on the straw, closing his eyes to adjust his body.
Using the power of blood and energy to perform healing spells was already familiar to Luo Chen.
Most of the blocked meridians in the body had been cleared.
The ruptured places had also been simply repaired.
Only a few major acupoints were still in the process of repair.
Only a light hum was heard.
"Mm..."
Luo Chen's tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed.
"The Divine Court is cleared!"
In this way, blood and energy could be transported without hindrance.
Even if his whole body's magic power was empty, relying on his strong physique and the Source Blood hidden deep in his flesh, he finally had three points of self-preservation power.
In Luo Chen's estimation, as long as he didn't encounter an existence similar to the Nascent Soul realm of the Mountain Sea Realm, he wouldn't be in danger of his life.
If he didn't care about the physical body being severely injured again, even if it was a stronger existence, he would have the power to fight.
Opposite the fire pit, the woman stared at Luo Chen's well-defined facial features, and when she saw the relaxed brows of the other party, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, then turned and went to sleep.
The second day early morning.
Two figures, taking advantage of the dawn, quickly went down the mountain.
Crossing the big river spanning between the green mountains, they went east.
Unlike the uneven and rugged land on the mountain, the land Luo Chen saw along the way was all flat and vast.
Obviously, these lands were much better than those on the mountain.
But there were no rice crops planted in them, but some green plants only the height of an adult's thigh.
"These are the lands of the Qingshan Smoke Workshop, planted with Mi Die. When the Mi Die flowers bloom, they will bear fruit. Those fruits are materials specifically used to make Mi Xian Smoke."
When passing a large piece of Mi Die field, Jing Lan introduced it like this.
Luo Chen nodded, looking up, almost unable to see the end.
Obviously, this Qingshan Smoke Workshop was powerful, able to occupy such a large piece of fertile land just to plant Mi Die.
It can be imagined how rich the benefits of Mi Xian Smoke made from Mi Die fruit will be.
And according to Jing Lan, Mi Die is not only useful for fruit, its bark is also an extremely tough rope after special tanning, named Qian Die Rope. This time going to the smoke workshop, she intended to collect a batch of bark and take it home to tan Qian Die Rope when she was free.
Qingshan Town arrived soon.
The first impression made Luo Chen very surprised.
The outskirts of the town were mostly piled with stones, forming a low city wall, giving people a solid and reliable feeling, as if they were guarding against something.
Subconsciously, Luo Chen thought of the "beasts" brought by the Mist of Destruction mentioned by Uncle Pu San.
But although the city wall of Qingshan Town was dark and simple, it didn't have any blood color, obviously this wall hadn't played the role of resisting beasts.
"You go to the smoke workshop yourself, I'll walk around."
Jing Lan looked at Luo Chen seriously, then nodded: "Be careful, if anyone asks, just say you are from Moon Village on the mountainside."
Luo Chen said he knew, and then paced along the street.
Qingshan Town is very big, and there are nearly a thousand households in the town.
Most of them have shops facing the outside, and in this early morning, some people have already started to put things up.
Luo Chen walked while observing.
Although his expression didn't change much, he was a bit disappointed in his heart.
"They are all ordinary things, and have nothing to do with practitioners."
He held the remaining hope, continued to move forward along the street that was neither wide nor narrow, and finally stopped in front of a small building named 【Wanxiang Pavilion】.
Looking up at the plaque, Luo Chen was a bit surprised.
In such a small place, it actually took such an atmospheric name.
Luo Chen didn't hesitate and walked in.
When he entered, the wind chime at the door made a crisp sound.
Then, hurried footsteps came.
"This guest..." A middle-aged fat man with a snobbish face walked out, but when he saw Luo Chen's simple linen clothes, he changed his words instantly: "Do you have anything you want to sell?"
Luo Chen said calmly: "Just looking."
The middle-aged man frowned, "Then do as you please."
Luo Chen didn't care, browsing through the shelves in the room at a glance.
Just as Jing Lan said before, there were indeed people in Qingshan Town who specialized in collecting things, collecting those strange objects swept by the sky wind.
This was probably the reason why the shopkeeper asked Luo Chen what he wanted to sell directly.
Like him, a person dressed in shabby clothes couldn't afford anything, and those who came here basically sold things they picked up.
Luo Chen was also curious about what was sold in this Wanxiang Pavilion.
"Knife, sword, ruler... rice, animal skin... is this a spirit stone?"
Luo Chen's gaze stopped on a diamond-shaped crystal, but unfortunately, the crystal was just an empty shell, and there was no spiritual energy in it long ago.
But even if it was just an empty shell of a spirit stone, it made him energized.
With such things, it shows that there must be things related to cultivators in the Great Destruction Realm.
Luo Chen's gaze continued to move, and suddenly, his expression changed slightly.
"Shopkeeper, where did this thing come from?"
A green lamp was lifted from his hand, and it even burned with a faint firelight eerily. ===== CHAPTER 1078 =====
