MTL - Repairer-Chapter 480 Guardian!

  Chapter 480 Guardian!

  In the mountains and forests of this world, there is a very strange mountain.

  This kind of mountain is usually not very high, only about one or two hundred meters at most. Unlike other mountains and forests, this kind of peculiar mountain is often barren of grass, and the whole body is made of rocks.

  From the outside, this kind of mountain seems to be no different from other mountain forests except that there are no plants growing on it.

   But in fact, this kind of mountain is not a dead thing, but a kind of spirit monster, which is called a stone monster by people in this world.

  Although the stone monster has a very low IQ and cannot evolve into a high-level spirit monster, it has rough skin and thick flesh, and has no special effect on the monsters and spirits in the forest, so it is very comfortable to live.

   Moreover, the stone monsters also have the ability to split. When the stone monsters grow to a certain size, they can split their bodies, thus turning one into two. They also reproduce life in this way.

  However, spirits and monsters look down on stone monsters, but humans are not, because the body of stone monsters can secrete a bad smell, but after solidification, it can be used as fuel secretion.

  This kind of secretion is much worse than the fat of giant whales, but it is enough to be used as a material for human lighting. Humans attach great importance to this kind of material that can be called a strategic resource.

  The stone monster itself has no offensive ability, and its defense is even more vulnerable to warriors. Even a martial artist can easily cut through the outer skin of the stone monster with a chisel.

  So it is very simple to get secretions from stone monsters.

  Due to the flammable properties of the internal secretions of the stone monster, as long as the rock on the outside of the stone monster is broken, and then light a torch, you can wait for the stone monster to let the secretion flow out obediently.

  Although the stone monster has low intelligence, it also knows that torches can threaten its own life, so it spares no effort to force out the secretions in its body in order to survive.

  Usually one only needs to find a stone monster, and then cut out a circle of outer rocks on the edge of the mountain. The fuel made from the secretions of a stone monster is enough to power a huge city with a million people for one year.

   It’s just that the excrement of the stone monsters is easy to get, but the growth places of the stone monsters are often in the deep mountains. If you want to go into the deep mountains to hunt the stone monsters, the team must be composed of warriors, and generally there will be generals in charge.

  In the deep mountains far away from Sunjia Village, there are many stone monsters. Every time the team goes to hunt for the excrement of stone monsters, they will basically pass by Sunjia Village and replenish some supplies here.

   The transportation of the fuel secreted by a stone monster requires hundreds of carriages, that is, an entire team of warriors, to transport the solidified secretion from the forest to the carriage.

  Whether it is a human or a horse, they basically have to stay in Sunjia Village. So much solidified secretions, as long as they are scraped off a little, are enough for Sunjia Village to use for several years.

  That's why Sunjia Village can light up the talisman lanterns every night. If you change the village, you may have to hide them in the cellar at night and seal the cellar entrance.

  Outside the cities of this world, most ordinary people spend their nights underground, because only by hiding underground can they escape those spirits and monsters.

   Therefore, before building a house in this world, before laying the foundation, a space is usually dug out at a depth of more than ten meters underground, and then the ground construction will start after the ventilation is done.

  Sunjia Village is no exception. Even though there are talisman lanterns protecting the entire village at night, many people still get used to going underground to rest at night, so that they can sleep more peacefully.

  In the courtyard where Su Xiaofan lives, there is also a basement, the area of ​​which is almost as large as the building on the ground.

  So for the energy stones in the wooden boxes all over the room, Su Xiaofan is not worried about being seen by others. After returning from this patrol, he will transfer those energy stones to the underground secret room.

  Looking at the memory of the avatar, it’s like watching a movie, it’s a bit different from killing the Yin God himself, Su Xiaofan killed a Yin God with his own hands just now, so he can’t help but compare it with the scene in his memory.

   "It is difficult for the human race to survive in this dimension."

  Looking at the memory in his mind, Su Xiaofan shook his head slightly, he is different from the clone, the clone was in a coma when it was sucked into the black hole, but Su Xiaofan came in awake all the time.

  So Su Xiaofan knows that not only is there evil spirit on this planet, but the entire dimension space inside the black hole is full of evil spirit. If the problem of evil spirit cannot be solved, Su Xiaofan has no chance of escaping from this space.

   While Su Xiaofan was thinking, he patrolled the village with a few people.

  The night outside the lantern looks particularly cold and dark. Only the light emitted by the talisman lantern can make people feel a little warmth.

  Except for the place that was destroyed by the Yin God, the rest of the talisman lanterns were intact. After walking around, Su Xiaofan returned to the courtyard where he lived.

  Finding the entrance to the cellar of the courtyard from the memory of the clone, Su Xiaofan left eighteen wooden boxes containing energy stones, and put all the remaining 3,100 energy stones into the cellar.

  The night has not dissipated, but Su Xiaofan's patrol mission is gone. When the dawn is approaching, ghosts and spirits are less likely to appear.

   This kind of experience, the avatar has already gone through two or three hundred years, Su Xiaofan who has completely integrated the memory of the avatar is not in a hurry, sitting quietly in the room, deliberating on the ninety-nine mysterious skills he deduced.

  Compared to the cultivator's exercises and Su Xiaofan's ancient cultivation methods, the avatar felt that only the ninety-nine mysterious exercises derived from the eighty-nine mysterious exercises that tempered the physical body could refine the evil spirits in this dimensional space.

   It's just that practicing Jiujiuxuan Gong needs to be done. This process is too risky. As long as there is any slight mistake, Su Xiaofan's body will inevitably be damaged. Even if his soul persists, he may only be able to switch to Yinshen.

  For this world with weird rules, if Su Xiaofan turns to Yin God Soul, he has no confidence at all. If he loses the memory of his life, then Su Xiaofan feels that he would be as happy as dead.

   "Don't worry about re-cultivating, just perfect the exercises."

   After hundreds of years of waiting, Su Xiaofan is not in a hurry. This is related to Su Xiaofan's life and death, and there is no room for carelessness.

  Back in the room, Su Xiaofan took out a wall lamp hanging on the wall, at this time the sky was already bright outside, Su Xiaofan put the wall lamp under the sunlight.

   Around the village, the lighting tools used are Fulu lanterns, but in the house, if conditions permit, this kind of wall lamp is usually used.

  The material used for this wall lamp is called Yangshi, which is a kind of ore, and it is also taken from deep mountains and rivers.

  Sunstone has a characteristic, that is, as long as it is exposed to the sun for a few hours during the day, it will emit bright light that can be used for lighting at night.

  Sunstone has many advantages, such as automatic light storage and no smell of fuel lamps. Just don’t forget to take it outside to dry it every day.

  In Su Xiaofan's opinion, this Yangshi is a bit like the solar energy of technological civilization. The only disadvantage is that the time for storing light is a bit short, usually only enough for one night.

   Even so, the price of lamps made of Yangshi is very high, ordinary people and villagers can't afford it, and only families of warriors can afford it.

  Su Xiaofan can see from his memory that the avatar's life in this village is basically tantamount to self-cultivation. Except for patrolling with people at night, most of the time during the day is spent basking in the sun.

   The avatar had the same temperament as Su Xiaofan, and Su Xiaofan's true self followed suit, and sat down directly on the reclining chair in the yard.

  Everything is haste makes waste. Although Su Xiaofan believes in the avatar's understanding and judgment of the world, he still wants to make a decision after experiencing some things himself.

   "Master Qingshan, are you there?" There was a knock on the door from outside the yard.

   "It's Brother Sun, um, Sun Liang is here too, come in."

  Su Xiaofan stood up and opened the courtyard door. A man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties was standing in front of the courtyard with Sun Liang.

  Su Xiaofan knew that non-warriors in this world generally looked very old. Sun Liang's father was actually not yet forty years old, and he looked like he was dying.

  The age revealed by Su Xiaofan's avatar is in his thirties, so he called the other party "big brother", turned his body sideways to let the two of them into the yard.

   "Master Qingshan, we won't go in."

  Sun Liang's father showed great respect for the descendants of the Su family, and he didn't have much contact with them on weekdays, so his words were quite cautious.

   "Lord Qingshan, I brought Sun Liang here to ask you to protect him. I wonder if you have time?"

  Sun Liang's father winked at his son, and Sun Liang quickly stepped forward, holding a package in both hands and handing it to Su Xiaofan.

   "Master Qingshan, this is a wolf I hunted and killed last year, and I made a mattress from its skin..."

  Sun Liang obviously had never done this kind of gift-giving before, he stuttered and held the package in front of Su Xiaofan's chest.

   "Okay, I accept it."

  Su Xiaofan nodded. In this world, there is no love without a reason. If you want to get help from a warrior, you need to give an equal reward.

  Of course, compared to letting Su Xiaofan protect the law, a wolfskin mattress is not enough, but Su Xiaofan knows that this is the best thing the other party can offer, so naturally he doesn't care.

   "Master Aoyama, please."

  Sun Liang's father looked at Su Xiaofan gratefully. He knew that if he hired a martial artist from the city, even if his family went bankrupt, he might not be able to come up with a gift to reward the martial artist.

   It's not that if they don't get paid, the warriors in the city will not come to protect the Dharma, they will come, but after Sun Liang advances, he will have to make up for this thank you gift.

   "If someone in the village is promoted to a martial artist, it can also enhance the strength of the village."

  Su Xiaofan waved his hand disapprovingly. As a child of Sunjiacun, he was blessed by Sunjiacun since he was a child. After he became a martial artist, he must pay back to Sunjiacun.

  Such as Sun Liang, to be promoted to a martial artist, he must first stay in Sunjia Village for three years before he can venture out. This is the rule set by Su Xiaofan's avatar. For two or three hundred years, no one dared to violate it.

  In these hundreds of years, Su Xiaofan would leave Sunjiacun from time to time. During the time he was away, it was the promoted martial artists from Sunjiacun who were protecting their own homeland.
