Sovereign to Immortality-Chapter 53 - Grain Cart

Chapter 53 – Grain Cart

Arriving at the backyard, Su Baozhang 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 Baozhang asked.

Yang Junshan thought for a while, then said: “Brother Bao Zhang, I have something that I need your help with!”

Su Baozhang became excited and said: “What is it, just say it!”

Yang Junshan took out five Jade Coins s from his bag, thought for a while, and took out two more, then said: “Brother Bao Zhang, I will give you a list in a while, you can buy all of the things on it for me in the next two days. Remember, you must memorize the things on the list, and also buy things separately, so don’t let anyone notice you.” 𝐟re𝐞w𝐞𝒃𝓃𝒐𝐯𝚎𝒍.c૦𝚖

When Su Baozhang took out the seven Jade Coins s in one go, Su Baozhang was shocked. He had never seen so much money in his life, so he asked hesitantly: “Isn’t this too much, is it something that Village Head arranged?”

Obviously, Su Baozhang did not think that Yang Junshan would have so many Jade Coins, so Yang Junshan could only say: “My father knows about this, leave him to me. You just need to follow the list I gave you and buy them.

When night fell, Yang Junshan took the rusted rock that An Xia had left for him and held it in his hand, preparing 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 engraved a few simple runes on the surface of the ore with a sharp knife, and then poured the spirit energy in his body into the runes. The moment the runes were activated, a “crack” sound came out, and cracks appeared on the surface of the ore.

Yang Junshan used all his strength to rub the ore in his hand, and actually directly broke a layer of broken stone into pieces. After opening his Spirit Aperture, Yang Junshan’s power rose again, if not he would not have used this method with his own hands, but because this method did not require any other tools, and instead allowed him to protect the spirit jade inside the stone even more.

This layer of broken rocks was still in the ore bed after being crushed into pieces, so Yang Junshan could only draw runes again, and then unravel the stone with his bare hands. After doing this three times, this dense luster finally revealed itself after the broken pieces of the shattered pieces. 𝒇r𝙚𝙚𝓌𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝗲𝘭.c૦𝑚

Yang Junshan wiped some sweat on his forehead and said: “Not bad, if I continue to remove it, there won’t be much spirit jade left.”

After half a night of fierce fighting, Yang Junshan had four more Jade Coins in his pocket on the second day. From a distance, he watched as his parents took the packhorse beast to the foot of the Western Mountain very early in the morning, and he could only sigh helplessly. His father clearly did not care about the locust plague, not to mention that his mother had already levelled up to the martial arts realm so even if his father encountered the locust plague, he had nothing to be afraid of.

Not only did the two of them focus all their energy on reclaiming the middle tier Ling Tian, they thought that the other two Martial Realm Cultivator s in the village were also like that. They had to hurry up and reclaim the new Ling Tian before the spiritual valley matures, and wait for the spiritual valley to harvest before they sow the seeds together.

Upon 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 Tiangang had used before, but after his martial arts realm had advanced, he rarely took off the bow that was hung in his room.

Taking the longbow out of his hands, Yang Junshan felt it sink into his hands. In this chapter, the Iron Body Bow had a weight of twenty to thirty kilograms, and the thin bowstring was sparkling and translucent; obviously, it was no ordinary thing. Pulling the bow with his hand, he slowly unfurled it.

Seeing that the longbow had an arrow quiver filled with arrows, 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 shaft and arrow head had simple runes engraved on them, with which, together with the seven stone longbow surprise attack, he could even shoot through a cultivator’s shield based on a technique.

Leaning the longbow on his back, Yang Junshan said to himself: “Father, you are ignorant to my Jade Coins, this longbow, hmm, and this kettle of Hundred Refinement Talisman arrows, I will take it without warning!

Inside the pomegranate forest and the spirit spring cave, Hu Niu had already woken up and was tearing apart the hare and pheasant left behind by Yang Junshan. Although she still looked defeated, she knew that her recovery was not bad.

Patting Hu Niu on the head, Yang Junshan instructed: “These next two days, I will be making a trip far away, you need to stay here and recuperate and train by yourself. I will leave enough food for you, do not run around while you are injured, and wait for me to return.”

Hu Niu cried out as if she was protesting, she even wanted to stand up, but because she did not have much strength left in her heavily injured body, she could only lie on the ground and look at Yang Junshan with grievance.

“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely take you out to play when you’re better!”

After exiting the cave, Yang Junshan headed south. If his memories from his previous life were correct, this locust plague had come from the south and engulfed more than half of the Yuxian, causing the production of the entire Yuxian to be reduced by half.

As for the southernmost point of the Wangshan Town, it was the mountain barbarian village. The mountain barbarian village was located at the foot of the Tuo Wu Shan, and the Tuo Wu Shan was the boundary between the Mengyu County and the Jinyu County. At the same time, it was also the boundary between the Yuxian and the Zhang County.

In his previous life, after the giant locust disaster happened, the Mengyu County and Jinyu County suffered the heaviest injuries in the six counties of Yuxian, and the giant locust horde came from the south. Although the Zhang County that was located in the southern districts of Yuxian was affected by the locust swarm, the area of the disaster was extremely small, so from Yang Junshan’s point of view, the place where the giant locust disaster originated from was most likely in this Tuo Wu Shan.

As Yang Junshan travelled south, after entering the Wangshan Town, he had seen several food carts that transported spiritual valley back to the town’s Grass Market. There were even empty food carts that drove them from the town to various villages.

When he arrived outside of the mountain barbarian village, Yang Junshan saw two more food carts. Unable to suppress his curiosity, Yang Junshan walked over to the middle-aged man who was driving the carts and asked, “Uncle, where are we sending this spiritual valley?”

The driver looked at Yang Junshan warily, seeing that he was only a half grown child, his expression relaxed, and said: “You’re not a villager, right?”

Yang Junshan pointed to the bow behind him, and said: “I am learning to hunt right now, I heard from my father that Tuo Wu Shan has the most prey, so I wanted to go in to take a look, but along the way I saw many food carts that were transporting spiritual valley to the town, I was curious so I wanted to ask.”

Upon hearing that Yang Junshan was going to the Tuo Wu Shan, the driver immediately waved his hands, and advised him with good intentions: “Young lad, the Tuo Wu Shan is not like other places, it ilace filled with dense mountains and forests, and is also at the border with the Jinyu County and the Zhang County. Although there are a lot of prey, there are also a lot of fierce beasts.

Yang Junshan blinked his eyes, and said: “Uncle, you still haven’t told me why there are so many food carts?”

The driver laughed: “Of course it’s to sell spiritual valley! Seeing that it is a year with a good harvest, the price of the food will definitely fall. Since the price of the food is taking advantage of this time, let’s quickly sell our family’s old rations to make room for a new one. ”

Yang Junshan thought for a moment, then asked: “Uncle, who is the person in this town collecting food, is it the Heaven-Shaken Sect, or the county’s strong and famous sects?”

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 let out a “Wu” sound. Since even the Wangshan Town’s guards knew of this matter, there shouldn’t broblem. In that case, could it be that the Heaven-Shaken Sect was secretly collecting food? Thinking about the rusted ore, Yang Junshan wondered, could it be that the Heaven-Shaken Sect needed a large number of Jade Coins to purchase the spiritual valley?

However, he quickly denied this idea. If the Heaven-Shaken Sect needed to purchase a spiritual valley, then it could be done in the entire county, and the Wasteland Town that Yang Junshan was in had obviously never heard of a high price purchase of a spiritual valley.

Yang Junshan had a nagging feeling that something was amiss with the people who bought the spiritual valley s this time. Furthermore, on the way, Yang Junshan saw that many of the villages in the Wangshan Town had grain carts that were used to transport the spiritual valley s.

Thinking about how the giant locust had suddenly erupted, and how they had not even harvested all of the spiritual valley s yet they had already been devoured, Yang Junshan looked at the matter of the spiritual valley s being purchased from the mountain town.

Thinking about it here, Yang Junshan reminded again, “Uncle, I walked all the way from the north, and discovered grasshoppers in groups in the wilderness. I’m afraid there might blague of locusts this year.

The driver sneered, “Child, what’s there to be afraid of about the locust plague? Which village doesn’t have one or two Martial Realm Cultivator? When we join hands, more than half of the locust plague would be wiped out...”

Yang Junshan was extremely familiar with this view of the locust plague, whether it was Yang Tiangang, Su Baozhang, or the other people in Tuqiu Village, they all had the same opinion of the locust plague as the carriage driver.

“What if this year’s locust disaster is really powerful, and even Martial Realm Cultivator cannot kill it?”

“We can’t kill even the cultivators of martial arts realm?” 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 fierce beasts. Although the strength of a single giant locust could not even compare to the power of a Mountain Drill, who could withstand a group of fierce beasts that covered the sky and covered the earth?

Yang Junshan tried to remind the driver not to rush to sell the spiritual valley, and the driver also tried to remind Yang Junshan not to enter too deep into the Tuo Wu Shan, but the result was obvious. The two sides did not listen to each other’s advice and the people who should be selling food in the town continued, and those who wanted to go to the Tuo Wu Shan did not stop.
