Chapter 31
Unknown Blueprints, Demanding a Title
"Sleep aid...increased energy recovery speed?"
Shen Yi noticed the last description above and went inside to rest for a while.
He calmed down and could indeed feel his mental and physical strength slowly recovering, and the vitality that had been depleted in his body was being replenished.
The effect was quite noticeable for him!
Half an hour later.
Shen Yi opened his eyes again, his eyes filled with surprise and delight.
This new feature of the Zhenyin Wooden House is undoubtedly a huge advantage for the three siblings!
They can recover their energy faster than others as long as they rest indoors!
This means they can do more in the same amount of time, greatly improving their efficiency!
"It's practically a paradise for cattle and horses!"
Shen Yi sighed.
If placed in a mining farm, it would allow people to mine to their heart's content.
"So based on the current situation, after I upgrade the folk artifact to level 4, the second characteristic will appear."
Shen Yi thought to himself, and he also began to look forward to the second characteristic of other folk creations.
Let's take a break today and continue upgrading our creations tomorrow.
He's almost ready to break through to the next level in the last couple of days.
Once you reach the third level of the Qi and Blood Realm, you should be able to withstand the enormous physical strain caused by upgrading your creation level.
After going out.
Shen Yuan had just finished feeding the chickens and came out from the backyard.
Yesterday, when selling meat, many people brought one or two chickens home to exchange for venison. Shen Yi collected a total of 142 chickens.
This made the originally spacious chicken coop feel more compact.
There are still more than 70 chickens that can only be temporarily enclosed by a fence in the front yard.
Faced with the problem of insufficient space, Shen Yi felt a little uneasy, and the matter of expanding the site needed to be put on the agenda.
"We could first connect Yang Ming's and Liao Ning's houses next door and upgrade their walls to yin wood walls."
"This way, we don't have to go through the trouble of building an entire wall. We can just build the wall in sections in the gaps between each house, which saves a lot of effort."
He pondered this.
After the meal.
Shen Yi led his younger siblings into the Black Mountain to search for monsters.
When the villagers who were passing by saw the three siblings, their expressions immediately changed, and they all avoided them like the plague.
They looked as if they had encountered three plague gods.
"Big brother, look at them, we're not going to eat them."
After getting away from the crowd, Shen Kun pursed his lips.
"Ignore them and focus on your own thing."
Shen Yi's words were concise.
This time, he led the two directly to another area on the outskirts, avoiding the territory of the terrifying lynx, and arrived at a place they had never explored before.
Coincidentally.
Surprisingly, there was also a group of people here preparing to enter the outer perimeter of Montenegro.
They noticed the three siblings.
Immediately, someone whispered in the ear of someone nearby, "Brother Erxi, it's the three siblings from the Shen family."
As the three approached, a hint of apprehension flickered in everyone's eyes.
They had heard about the deeds of Shen Yi and his sister in the past few days.
They were able to work together to kill a monster.
Although it was just a low-level demon beast, it showed that the three siblings' strength should not be underestimated.
After all, at least seven people are needed in their group to dare to hunt monsters.
Someone lowered their voice and said, "We have tried to recruit the three Shen siblings many times, but they have all refused. It turns out they are too proud to associate with us because they think they have the strength to back them up."
Li Erxi narrowed his eyes and sneered, "These days, sticking together for warmth is the way to survive. They don't know what's good for them and will die in the mouths of monsters sooner or later."
Without lingering, he waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go deeper."
Shen Yi watched from afar as the group ventured deeper into the outer perimeter, then slowed his pace and did not continue forward.
Shen Kun said, "Brother, those people are all from Wang Tieming's side."
Shen Yi shook his head, ignoring it, and began to walk through the mountains, searching for traces left by the demonic beast.
They were lucky today; they actually found a low-level demon rabbit hiding in a secluded corner of the forest.
The demon rabbit was extremely fast, escaping almost like a blur.
But he still couldn't escape the three siblings' shooting range.
The Shadowwood Longbow has been upgraded to level 3, and its "Aim" trait is now much more powerful, allowing you to easily lock onto fast-moving targets.
After Shen Kun's first two arrows missed, Shen Yuan's arrow successfully hit the demon rabbit!
"pretty!"
"This demon rabbit is probably about to enter the mid-stage of the first tier, it's so fast."
Shen Kun quickly caught up, muttering to himself.
He then grabbed the demon rabbit, which was about half the size of a wild boar, and his face lit up with joy:
"Big brother, little sister, this demon rabbit must weigh at least fifty pounds!"
Upon hearing this...
Shen Yi smiled.
There's been a shortage of monster meat at home lately, so we have to be careful with our food.
With this demon rabbit, their supply of demon beast meat for the next few days is secured.
Unfortunately, Shen Yi did not find any trace of the second demonic beast as dusk approached.
So they had no choice but to go down the mountain and go home.
After returning home.
Before it got too late, Shen Yi went out for a walk around his neighborhood.
The western part of Heishan Village was originally a wasteland, which was later settled by a few villagers.
However, they found that this place was not suitable for living, and the distance from the village was too far to walk, making it inconvenient to travel back, so they moved back.
When Shen Yi came to this world, there were still three households in this place.
After Yang Ming's family died, only their family and Guan Yue's family remained.
Yang Ming's house is about 50 meters to the left of their house.
Guan Yue's house is about 30 meters diagonally opposite on the left, separated by a road.
The other thirteen houses nearby were all empty and uninhabited.
The Liao family's yard was less than five meters to the right of their house!
The two companies are very close to each other and have the best relationship.
Apart from that, all the other houses were more than 30 meters away from their home.
Connecting all the houses together is extremely difficult.
However, Shen Yi did not intend to do that.
He just wanted to expand his own property a bit for the time being.
The best solution at present is to build two walls to enclose the open space between their house and Liao Ning's house.
He also included Liao Ning's house in his territory!
This method should also consume the least amount of Yin Soul Wood.
After upgrading the three Yin Wood Longbows, sixty Deep Black Arrows, and other weapons.
Last night, he also hunted down more than 300 lantern ghosts, and Shen Yi currently has 946 units of Yin Soul Wood.
"That should be enough."
He wasn't quite sure.
Then he called out into the yard, "Ah Kun, come with me to do something."
"Coming!" Shen Kun rushed over.
However, Shen Yuan immediately followed, her face full of suspicion: "What are you guys going to do now? I'm going too!"
Shen Yi explained, "Our place is a bit small. I plan to tear down the walls of the other houses and build two walls to connect our house with Liao Ning's house."
"Huh?" Shen Yuan was taken aback.
"Big brother, that's a great idea! This way we can put a lot of our things at Liao Ning's place!"
Shen Kun raised both hands in agreement and rubbed his hands together in anticipation.
"Little sister, go and stew the monster meat. We'll go tear down the wall first."
After giving the order, Shen Yi led Shen Kun out quickly and moved the wall of the abandoned house over.
It's not really a demolition; their wall itself had already collapsed by more than half, so all they needed to do was move the stones back.
Half an hour later.
The two brothers, drenched in sweat, carried back a pile of stones, but they didn't know if it would be enough to build a wall.
It was getting dark.
They had to stop work temporarily and resume building the wall tomorrow.
There was still no sign of the Fog Shadow Monster tonight; only the Lantern Ghost wandered around Black Mountain Village.
As was their custom, the three siblings hunted lantern ghosts at night and had Shen Yi collect about three hundred pieces of Yin Soul Wood.
Early the next morning.
Shen Yi then seized the opportunity and went to the backyard to upgrade a vegetable garden to level 4.
This time.
It took a full two hundred units of Yin Soul Wood to gather the materials needed for the upgrade!
[Vegetable Garden - Level 4]
[Function: Growing crops]
【Characteristics: Fertile (white, all crops planted in the vegetable garden grow much faster and have a very high probability of mutation, slowly restoring fertility), Increased Yield (white, all crops planted in the vegetable garden yield slightly more)】
【Durability: 100/100】
……
The increased production characteristic is quite good.
Other people's spiritual plants can only produce one fruit per plant, but in his vegetable garden, there is a chance that two or even more fruits may grow!
Shen Yi was quite satisfied.
After resting in the house for a while and regaining some strength, I returned to the house.
He then called Shen Kun to go out together and build the two walls first.
If he couldn't finish today, he didn't plan to go into Black Mountain to hunt monsters.
It was afternoon.
With Shen Yuan's help, two 3-meter walls were successfully built, connecting the Shen family and the Liao family's residences.
And while we're at it, we'll also repair the collapsed wall around the Liao family's house.
The Liao family's property also occupies about 300 square meters, almost the same size as the Shen family's.
With the open space in the middle added, Shen Yi's territory now covers an area of 700 square meters!
The three siblings quickly knocked down the wall separating the Liao family's house from theirs, making the two places accessible. They then sealed off the original gate of the Liao family's courtyard with stone.
In this way, only the Shen family's gate can be used to enter and exit this place!
Shen Yi immediately chose to upgrade the walls!
[Wall - Level 0 (Upgrading (1/100))]
[Function: Block monster attacks]
【Characteristics: None】
【Durability: 2/100】
……
The number of Yin Soul Wood instantly decreased by one hundred.
The walls of the Liao family's house, as well as the two new walls they had just built, were all changed!
The walls that were originally rough and uneven with obvious gaps were now automatically repaired and smoothed out.
The gaps between the walls have disappeared, and the wall has become completely integrated!
From this moment on, Shen Yi has truly claimed this area as his own territory!
He walked around the place that used to belong to the Liao family.
The layout of the Liao family's house was quite similar to that of the Shen family's house.
Shen Kun and Shen Yuan also excitedly wandered around this place that now completely belonged to them.
"I need to collect some Soul Wood so I can upgrade these two vegetable plots in a couple of days."
Shen Yi looked at the gray vegetable garden in front of him and pondered to himself.
Growing crops is one of his important projects!
We already have one mutated red eggplant plant, and once we have a larger number, we will have to plant it on a large scale.
Even if they don't go out to hunt monsters, they can rely on these mutated fruits and vegetables to ensure that their cultivation will not be depleted of vital energy!
The next few days passed.
There was still no major disturbance in the darkness.
It was as if the two consecutive attacks by the Fog Shadow Monsters in a short period of time were just accidents.
Shen Yi's Zhaoying Lantern's durability has dropped to zero and it can no longer be used.
Unless he collects enough Fog Shadow Stones to upgrade it, it's just an ordinary black stone.
Unfortunately, the Shadow Fog Monster didn't reappear, and there was nothing he could do.
Today I was lucky; I hunted two demon rabbits, a wild deer, and a wild boar from Black Mountain.
Shen Yi then left the demon rabbit at home and headed straight for Mo Guanhai's house with the wild deer and wild boar.
Mo Guanhai had given him a deposit beforehand, and told him to call him when he was selling meat.
This time, I decided to go directly to his house to take a look.
"You're here?" Mo Guanhai saw him coming and his gaze fell on the two prey. He chuckled.
"Amazing, another wild deer has been hunted."
He looked up, his eyes becoming meaningful. "Kid, tell me, do you have a master archer in your family?"
The archer holds a very high strategic position in the village.
Shen Yi smiled calmly and did not respond to the question. He said, "Fifth Master, do you want these two prey? If not, I'll take them to the center of the village to sell."
"Yes, of course, come in."
Mo Guanhai told him to wait in the courtyard, then hurried into the house.
Shen Yi took the opportunity to look around.
Mo Guanhai's yard is indeed very large, with at least ten acres of land in the back for growing vegetables and fruits.
The courtyard also contained weapon racks, wooden dummy stakes, and the like.
The layout of the houses is much more elaborate than that of other villagers' homes, resembling a town courtyard.
I wonder where he lived before he came here and founded Heishan Village?
Shen Yi's heart skipped a beat.
At this moment, Mo Guanhai had already come out carrying a pile of things. The weight of at least a thousand pounds was as light as a feather in his hands. He placed it in front of Shen Yi with steady steps.
"Come on, since you've been bringing meat to the old man all this time, Grandpa Mo is in a good mood today. Pick one or two things from this pile of treasures and take them with you."
Shen Yi looked down and saw that the weapons inside were all extremely exquisite and sharp.
He glanced at it casually, guessing that none of them were as powerful as his level 4 Yin Wood Spear.
However, when he saw a sheepskin scroll, his heart stirred slightly.
Take it out.
[Unknown folk craft blueprint detected*1. Add to collection?]
"I want this one!"
"I found this thing at a historical site, no way!" Mo Guanhai's eyes widened immediately.
Shen Yi deftly stuffed it into his pocket. "Fifth Master, both of these prey are yours."
"You little rascal, fine, I already told you to pick whatever you want, this old man won't take advantage of you..."
He hadn't finished speaking.
Mo Guanhai saw Shen Yi turn around and leave, slipping out of the courtyard in the blink of an eye.
His eyes widened immediately. "This kid, he runs so fast!"
As darkness fell, Mo Guanhai shook his head, locked the door, and strode into the house.
……
A mysterious mountain range shrouded in darkness.
A figure, covered in blood and with a look of terror on his face, fled in panic through the unknown, misty mountain path.
"Where's Uncle Wanhe? Where did they go? I don't want to die here, I don't want to!"
However, after he ran frantically for a distance, he suddenly realized that the road in front of him was familiar again.
The marks he made on the ground just now came into view!
A chilling cold instantly ran down my spine, making every hair on my body stand on end.
Suddenly, a blurry figure emerged from the mist ahead.
He wore a strange smile, and his movements were inexplicably stiff.
He raised his eyes, looked at the person in front of him, and said with a grin:
"My friend, do I look more like a human or a deity?"
The man's eyes froze the moment he saw "him".
His body began to tremble violently and uncontrollably, and his face was instantly filled with endless fear and despair.
……
"ah!!!"
Screams echoed through the valley.
far away.
The group of people hiding in the narrow cave were trembling with fear and their faces were ashen.
"Ahui got separated from the group...and was eaten!"
