Chapter 34 West Kunlun(1/2)
It had only been a few months since he arrived in Chicken Country, but Zhang Cheng's evaluation was only eight words: Meat eaters are despicable and fail to plan far ahead.
As for other countries, they are slightly better but limited.
This may also be the key factor why Xiniu Hezhou has never developed, or has developed for a while but will eventually decline.
Considering that the winter here is getting colder and his family does not need to attend any New Year's party here, before the arrival of the New Year and the coldest winter months, Zhang Cheng retired and took a boat south with his family for vacation.
Of course, the servants and cooks were also brought along on the road, and Manager Huck, the groom, the coachman and the gardener were left to manage the house and the cannon workshop.
Zhang Cheng naturally did not have the confidence to be someone else's boat, so he threw an acorn by the river. The moment the acorn containing Zhang Cheng's mana and consciousness came into contact with the sunshine and soil, it began to take root and sprout, and then the acorn's
The rhizomes are growing wildly on the shore.
During the growth process, the acorns began to shape according to Zhang Cheng's consciousness, but instead of being tall and straight like ordinary trees, they were shaped into the shape of a boat.
The ship took shape in a day and a night. The five masts with a height of 100 meters and the large leaves on them can be used as sails. The hull is 300 meters long, and the width of the ship is temporarily 80 meters.
This boat can definitely grow again, but no matter how big it is, it won't be able to go out to sea along the river.
There are fifty rooms isolated on the upper and lower floors inside the ship. Each room is filled with acorns the size of a human head. After each acorn is opened, the improved acorn rice inside can feed a person for a whole day.
Some of the rhizomes of the oak tree lead to some necessary rooms at the bottom of the ship. These rhizomes act as a seawater purification system and can cut out fresh water for human consumption or bathing and laundry.
All sailors during the Great Navigation Period were alcoholics, and there was nothing they could do about it, because at that time, the storage time of clean water on the ship was too short, while the beer and wine carried on the ship could be stored for a long time in years.
As for the Chicken Country and the entire Xiniu Hezhou, life and death have nothing to do with Zhang Cheng. The purpose of coming here is to see how they commit suicide.
As for raising armies to fight for the world, none of the immortal cultivators in the past have such a hobby. The ultimate pursuit of immortal cultivators is great freedom, and the higher the worldly status, the more responsibilities and shackles there are. From the perspective of Taoism, it is already putting the cart before the horse.
, so since ancient times, emperors who have cultivated immortality have had no good endings.
Before the family boarded the boat on the shore, two washerwomen and a cook expressed that they did not want to leave Maple City, so Zhang Cheng sent them back to continue working at the mansion. Anyway, there were still remaining staff there, and they also needed someone to cook and wash.
They may also be frightened by the oak boat.
But from a dark perspective, the three men who stayed behind, the groom, the coachman, and the gardener, most likely had an affair with these three women. Otherwise, why would the three men who left behind have been with the groom, the coachman, and the gardener's closest friends?
A woman chose to stay.
Of course, it is normal for them to have an older single woman on one side and an older single man on the other side.
The oak boat walked along the river for two days and two nights without being controlled by anyone. After entering the estuary, it went all the way south. As it went south every day, the temperature increased little by little.
From winter to spring, there is only one week at sea.
During this period, Zhang Cheng did not rest. He flew ashore every day to observe the terrain and landforms. When he encountered natural gemstones and minerals, he directly grabbed them with the big hand of Faxiang Tiandi.
Speaking of which, this place is closer to the geography and landforms of my previous life. The geological exploration knowledge I learned before is also applicable here.
From spring to summer, the oak boat sailed south for two weeks.
Zhang Cheng left a message and asked the servants to wait on the boat. Then he and his six wives took off into the air, flying together to the snow-capped mountains of the Southern Continent deep in the interior.
On the blazing equator, the snow-capped mountains stand like pillars in the sky.
In his previous life, Zhang Cheng suspected that this was the West Kunlun mentioned in the Great Wilderness Western Scripture.
As for the Kunlun Mountains in my hometown, it should only be East Kunlun.
As a geologist, if you encounter the legendary sacred mountain, what else can you say? Just dig.
Zhang Cheng took his six wives and flew to the mountainside of the snow-capped mountains to dig directly with the Cold Iron Sword.
This is not a protected area now. If we don’t dig now, we will wait until later.
Within a few days of Monk Jiedan coming to dig the mountain, seven people dug through the snow-capped mountain three and a half times.
However, what was dug out was nothing but rocks. Zhang Cheng simply divided his forces into two groups, digging upwards and downwards. He would not stop until the truth was revealed.
The group that dug upwards dug out the 10,000-year-old snow on the top of the mountain in one day. But this 10,000-year-old snow is not 10,000-year-old ginseng, and it is of no use. If the longer the age, the greater the medicinal value, dozens of ginseng on the ground.
Stones that are hundreds of millions of years old are treasures.
The group that dug downward, under the leadership of Zhang Cheng, dug out the underground magma.
Well, it looks like it's still an active volcano.
After digging out the underground magma, Zhang Chengcheng wanted to leave, but his wife Liu Yundai saw something was wrong: "Don't leave, there is a treasure inside!"
After expanding the hole of the underground magma, all seven people came in, and the heat was isolated by magic. The seven people used their spiritual consciousness to explore the depths of the magma, and sure enough, there was a trace of spiritual energy.
Zhang Chengyun used the Immortal Eye Technique to observe carefully, and found that deep in the magma, there were flaming lotuses blooming.
Liu Yunting: "This should be the Earth Fire Lotus, also known as the Quiet Lotus. It is also one of the genius treasures. It is also a rare treasure in the hands of Yuanying monks, but I didn't expect it to grow in this lower realm."
Zhang Cheng understood in his heart: "Could it be that the lotus root can be used to make the body of the Yuanying monk?"
"Yes, but the effect is more than that. Its lotus leaves and lotus pods can be used to make high-level magic weapons. Taking the lotus seeds directly can improve the cultivation of Nascent Soul monks, or it can be used as the main medicine for alchemy."
Zhang Cheng was thinking of the lotus planted by the immortal on Nezha Naohai, which is similar to this.
Zhang Cheng: "Go and get the lotus pods back, remember not to take them all."
The seven people used the fire avoidance technique, flew down to the depths of the magma, and began to pick lotus pods. They picked out a total of thirty-five lotus pods, and each lotus pod had thirty-six lotus seeds.
One lotus pod and all the lotus roots are left, which can grow again anyway.
If the state of mind is perfect, there are thirty-six pure lotus seeds on such a lotus pod, which is enough for monks in the late Jindan stage to attack the Nascent Soul stage. However, Zhang Cheng and his wife's state of mind is far from being perfect.
Fortunately, the genius treasures have no expiration date, otherwise they would have to leave them all here and wait to pick them up at the end.
In the past, Zhang Cheng was puzzled that after walking so many miles and exploring so many places, he never encountered any elixir. However, he found a big and top-notch elixir in one go.
There is also a genius treasure in this lower realm, and it seems that it follows the principle of leaving a thread in the sky.
Another thing is, there are such big discoveries in West Kunlun, so what good things are waiting for you in East Kunlun?
It's really exciting.
Before Zhang Cheng became an address staff member, the Kunlun Mountains were already a restricted area for geological work. There are various theories. Some say that an underground Great Wall was built there, which is the Doomsday Fortress. Some say that prehistoric civilization was unearthed.
It was also said that too many workers at the address died there in the past and they were not allowed to go there.
At least one thing Zhang Chengneng is sure of is that the Himalayas, the most majestic mountain range in the East Kunlun Mountains, are hollow. Previous people have done seismic bomb experiments on this. It is absolutely certain.
Just because of funding issues, the difficulty of transporting engineering machinery up the snowfield, and the lack of interest in mineral resources, there has been no excavation.
In fact, in Zhang Cheng's heart, he would like to dig it if he had the chance.
Originally he just wanted to go south for vacation, but after arriving here, Zhang Cheng wanted to go further.
The family each brought five pure lotus pods and returned to the oak boat. The boat continued southward on its own initiative.
This ship is actually controlled by Zhang Cheng's consciousness, including its growth and course.
In the eyes of the servants, it can be compared to the legendary ark.
Every day during the day, Zhang Cheng and his wives would go to the shore together. If there was a gem mine, he would grab it with all his skills. If not, he would take a look at the local customs.
It's just that in this place, there is still unity and friendship within a tribe, but between two tribes, they treat each other like fighting wild beasts, not only for the purpose of killing each other, but also to eat after killing.
Roasting people on a fire grill is really a bit too violent, or in other words, this is the primitive life of eating hair and drinking blood.
Fortunately, battles between tribes are not very common, otherwise it would be really unbearable to watch.
Most of the time, these southern tribes, known as the Negro people, gathered and hunted. Because there were not too many tribes, each tribe's habitat was very large. During non-tribal wars, these tribes generally lived a small life.
not bad.
The excess population was also lost in the process of tribal wars and hunting. After all, the climate here is hot and all kinds of poisonous snakes and insects are everywhere. Half of the young people have fallen before they can become qualified hunters.
Ignoring tribal wars and their subsequent development, this place meets the requirements of a green life where nature and man are one. However, people from the northern continent have begun to establish trading strongholds along the coast of the southern continent, using alcohol, tobacco, and iron weapons.
Start importing these tribes from the coastal areas of the southern continent and exchange with them for ivory, furs, gems and other goods.
It is only a matter of time before a larger-scale tribal war and war breaks out throughout the Southern Continent.
On the way, they only encountered a navy of the Lion Kingdom, or a pirate fleet. A high-speed oak boat directly rammed and sank a pirate ship that wanted to rob it. While the two ships were approaching, they took the opportunity to jump onto one side of the oak boat.
Hundreds of dozens of Lion Kingdom pirates were thrown into the sea by the three knights Miranda, Ariel, and Elsa on the ship, and then the remaining Lion Kingdom navy dispersed to make way.
After defeating the pirates of the Lion Kingdom, Zhang Cheng met with his three knights: "You have made great contributions. If you have any wishes, you can put them forward."
The three people looked at each other and shook their heads together: "Not yet."
That means you are ready to go back and ask for it again. Zhang Cheng also nodded: "Okay, let's talk about it after we go back."
Zhang Cheng wanted to go there to see East Kunlun, but it would be a bit slow to go there by boat. If you take the floating shuttle to fly there, you can make a round trip in a few days. If you go there by boat, even if the oak boat is fast,
For some, the time for a trip is calculated in months. For a round trip, the time is calculated in years.
Well, I originally planned to go on vacation. Now I still stick to the original plan and continue the vacation. When winter is over, I will return.
However, in order to avoid continued harassment by pirates, this resort location was changed. Zhang Cheng, who had noticed that the geography and landforms here were exactly the same as those in his previous life, directly sent the oak boat slightly north, and then sailed into the Mediterranean Sea.
Relatively speaking, the weather in the Mediterranean is pleasant and it is a famous holiday destination. Even the aristocratic and wealthy people in the southern part of the country will choose to spend the winter in Mahu Port on the Mediterranean coast. Some of the islands in the Mediterranean are also popular among the middle class.
Family resort.
In fact, there are more pirates in the Mediterranean, and the rule here is that naval pirates do not differentiate between families.
But here, no ship can catch up with the oak ship, and after the oak ship entered the Mediterranean, it became a giant ship with a length of more than 500 meters and a width of 100 meters.
It is simply unreasonable that such a big ship can travel at a high speed of 20 knots at any time, without adding water or buying food, and is not even afraid of fire attacks.
To be continued...
