Chapter 22 22. Two months later
There is no time in the mountains, and one does not know how many years have passed.
Two months passed in a flash.
In the deep mountains, the cabin built by Song Cheng and Tong Jia was originally alone, but now there are 68 cabins around it.
There is a bamboo fence around the cabin, and the wooden stake fence is wrapped around it twice, which looks like a secluded village away from the world.
The people in the village were all rescued from the foot of the mountain that day.
Since Song Cheng killed the bandits, the villagers dared not enter the village again, so they followed Song Cheng to this place.
There are many villagers who want to go around to the county town, but Song Cheng resolutely refused.
For people who are immortal, life span is not a problem, but danger is.
As long as you can stay in a place without danger and develop steadily, you should stay there until the end of time.
If this wasn't the world of "Infernal Hell", Song Cheng felt that he could build a "Peach Blossom Spring" here, and when someone accidentally came here hundreds of years later, they could also say a few words, "To avoid the war, I led my wife and villagers to this desperate place and never came out again."
Early in the morning.
Song Cheng walked in this newly built small village.
The villagers of the reorganized family saw him and greeted him.
"Mr. Song."
"Sister-in-law, why do you call me Mr. Song? Just call me Brother Cheng."
"Good morning, Mr. Song."
"Uncle, why are you joining in the fun?"
"Mr. Song is so energetic."
"Big sister, didn't you stop calling me that before?"
This name, since the day Song Cheng killed the bandits on a snowy night, changed from "Brother Cheng" to "Mr. Song".
Song Cheng was also helpless.
The name "Mr. Song" made him feel particularly awkward.
Apart from other things, many of the people he saved were familiar with him, even the previous "Sister Cauliflower", "Sister Baojin", and "Sister Chen".
These old sisters-in-law could be his mother, but at this time they all called him "Song Ye, Song Ye".
He refused several times, but some people still called him that. He was not angry, but just corrected them seriously.
Some people on the other side were much better.
"Song brother, the farmland has been opened up, waiting for sowing in early spring. We have also prepared the grain seeds, which should be enough."
"Cheng brother, the trees in the north have been cleared, and the view has indeed been widened a lot."
Song Cheng was kind to people, and everyone smiled and chatted and nodded.
After walking two more steps, a beautiful girl wrapped in an animal skin coat suddenly came over.
Song Cheng recognized that this was Miss Guanxi.
He had heard the story of Guanxi many times.
The grain merchants from the county town belonged to a chamber of commerce named "Ruyi Chamber of Commerce".
Ruyi Chamber of Commerce happened to be in the "seal battle" of the younger generation. Whoever could hold the seal would be the president of the chamber of commerce.
Originally, the competition was not fierce, because it was the eldest lady who handled the affairs on weekdays, and the eldest son was eating, drinking and having fun, and had no intention of taking the seal. Both sides had a tacit understanding.
However, at the beginning of last year, a move by the Great Shang Dynasty made the two younger generations of the Ruyi Chamber of Commerce completely crazy.
The Great Shang Dynasty wanted to open a canal!
Connecting the north-south road, connecting thousands of rivers, and even the small rivers in each village.
In this way, all kinds of trades of the Ruyi Chamber of Commerce are "visible to the naked eye" and have hope, and the benefits are so rich that it is unimaginable.
So, the eldest son also wanted to take power.
The two sides started fighting.
The eldest son has no ability, but there are many crooked ways. He doesn't know how to make money, but he is quite good at making trouble.
His strategy for getting to the top is to "make the eldest lady fail in trade."
During a crucial grain transport to the northern counties, the eldest lady noticed something was wrong, so she used a trick to send her confidant Guan Xi to transport fake grain that was "grain on the outside but chaff on the inside".
Guan Xi had a very good relationship with the eldest lady, and when she came out, the eldest son naturally took it seriously, so he made arrangements.
Sure enough, Guan Xi was robbed.
The eldest lady herself was the last to arrive, and took another route with the real goods. Now the dust has settled and she has taken control of the Chamber of Commerce.
Guan Xi is trying to persuade him to go back.
However, he did not know how to return.
Go from Tanghe Village?
Yun'e may not kill him, but won't she kill others?
Go around the front mountain and go to the county town?
The long journey may have greater dangers, and he does not intend to try rashly before he can fully develop.
What's more, the village has begun to take shape now, and even if he wants to move, the people here will not easily agree.
Moreover, this environment is actually the most suitable for practicing with peace of mind.
Many thoughts flashed through his mind. Before Guan Xi spoke, Song Cheng apologized and said, "Wait a little longer."
Guan Xi sighed. But she was helpless. After all, she knew that if she returned rashly, she would probably die.
Back to the wooden house in the core of the village.
Song Cheng grabbed a "meatball" from the plate on the table and threw it into his mouth.
This is the meatball made by the young lady of the Dong family using herbs and fish meat.
Song Cheng smacked his lips twice.
To be honest, this meatball was quite fresh when he ate it for the first time, but it was really unpalatable if he ate too much.
He also wanted to eat something with salt, and even more wanted to eat some rice noodles.
But there was none.
Song Cheng sat on a wooden chair by the window and glanced at his strength: 18~31.
Looking at the panel again:
[Added points: 403 points]
[Kung Fu]
White Snake Sword (Yellow Grade Ding) (Perfect)
Black Turtle Step (Yellow Grade Ding) (Perfect) (Compatible with White Snake Sword)
[Skills]
Pagoda Visualization Method (Yellow Grade Ding) (Perfect)
Among them, "White Snake Knife" and "Pagoda Visualization Method" both have a "+".
For the former, after the perfection of "Black Turtle Step", the probability of deducing the "Yellow Grade C" skill doubled to "2%", and the points required for deduction once were "3 points".
For the latter, the success rate is still "10%", and the points required for deduction once are also "3 points", which is very strange.
Song Cheng's plan is to "accumulate points and quickly 10 times".
Now, he has 403 points, enough to deduce 134 times.
He will deduce "White Snake Knife" first, and after success and increased hard power, he will deduce "Pagoda Visualization Method".
Even so, he still feels a little distressed when looking at the points that he has collected for two months with great effort.
However, he knew that "reading the skills of the same level and referring to the ideas of other skills can improve the success rate of deduction." Although the Tiger Roaring Knife conflicted with his skills, it provided him with a 1% chance, otherwise Song Cheng would not be "2%" now.
'Forget it, in this world, skills are extremely precious. If you want to borrow someone else's, you don't know how much effort and risk you will have to go through.
What's more, I'm still in the mountains. The probability is low, but it's not zero. '
Song Cheng's heart was as calm as water, and he felt like he had a faint syndrome.
At this time, the wooden window on his side was supported by a pole, and a gust of warm wind suddenly came from outside, blowing his hair, as if to imply that winter was gone and early spring had arrived.
The frozen soil became moist, the snow in some damp places thawed, and the stream behind the house expanded more than twice to both sides.
Song Cheng was about to add some, but suddenly sniffed his nose and frowned.
The rotten smell was getting stronger and stronger.
In the deep winter, it was only sometimes there and sometimes not.
But in the spring, it suddenly became stronger.
Song Cheng had actually checked this smell with the villagers a long time ago, but they didn't find it.
Some people said that this smell came from underground, and others said it came from caves deep in the forest.
Song Cheng looked around vigilantly again, but didn't see the glaring and terrifying "red".
He pondered for a while, muttering in his heart: "Forget it, add some first. ’
The following is the complete status after 2 months:
[Name: Song Cheng]
[Talent: Immortality]
[Added points: 403 points]
[Realm: Yellow Grade Ding Pin]
[Kung Fu]
White Snake Blade (Yellow Grade Ding Pin) (Perfect)

《Black Turtle Step》 is a supplement to the White Snake Blade, and there is no combat method.
