The villain helps me build infrastructure

Yan Cheng has always been vigorous and resolute, and he took the hunting team to find Cai Que the next day.

Zhuang Cheng took the map drawn by them in the past six months and said: "There are no colorful sparrows around here, where are we going?"

Since Yan Cheng came, he took them to redraw the nearby map, not only recorded the topography, but also the precise location and distance, and even recorded where and what monsters were there.

So far they have found five kinds of monsters, but the most frequently hunted ones are snow wolves.

In fact, Yan Cheng had never seen a colorful sparrow, but when he was in Yangcheng, he heard people talking about this kind of monster: "Let's go north."

"North?" Zhuang Cheng hesitated, "It seems that we haven't been to the north yet."

They used to go west or east. The east was in the direction of Yangcheng, and there was a small city in the west, but they had never dealt with each other. As for the north...

Qingzhou City was originally located to the north of the East Territory. If you continue to go up, it will be a mountain range that traverses the east and west of Xianlu. The south of the mountain range belongs to the East Territory, and the north belongs to the North Territory.

"I heard that the northern region is extremely cold, and the people there are also very tough." This is what the teacher said when I was in the literacy class, "We will have snow wolves here, just because of the proximity to the Hengduan Mountains, continue to go north If so, will you encounter other powerful monsters?"

Yan Chengdao: "There are indeed many monsters in the Hengduan Mountain Range, but with our foot strength, we can't reach the Hengduan Mountain Range. Even if we get close, it's only on the periphery, so there shouldn't be any problem."

Even so, after practicing the Lightweight Art, their speed has more than doubled, but after more than an hour, they can already see the shadow of the mountain in the distance.

This mountain is not a green mountain, but a snow-capped mountain with ice peaks. In the line of sight, the shadow of the mountain and the shadow of the sky meet, and the deep and light blue undulates continuously without end. It looks like a giant dragon entrenched, which is very spectacular.

Seeing this, Zhuang Cheng and the others couldn't help swallowing: "This, this is the Hengduan Mountain Range?"

It was also the first time for Yan Cheng to see such a majestic mountain range. No wonder the old people in Yangcheng always said not to go hunting in the north. There are many monsters hidden in such a mountain range.

"Let's go, Caique should be right ahead."

Moving on, they soon came upon a bird preening its feathers on a branch.

"This is Caique!" Zheng Ming excitedly said.

The feathers are gorgeous, it must be a colorful sparrow.

Yan Cheng nodded.

So the monks immediately formed an encirclement circle with a tacit understanding.

After a quarter of an hour, they finally caught the first colorful sparrow.

This colorful sparrow looks good, and its voice is extremely clear. When it is held in the palm, it is fluffy. Its big eyes are black and bright. Zheng Ming looked at it and was reluctant to kill him. He asked Yan Cheng: "Captain, this colorful sparrow Can we take it back?"

Yan Cheng thought of Ji Changlin's instruction: "You can take it back, it's better to keep this bird than to kill it."

Colored sparrows are not easy to catch, and if they cannot be bred, it will be a hassle.

Yan Cheng put the colorful bird into the animal taming bag, which is also the only animal taming bag in Qingzhou City, and it is very precious.

If it was in Yangcheng, such a thing would never have fallen into his hands.

Now that the city lord has been handed over to him, he has to be careful not to lose it.

After Caique got into the animal taming bag, Yan Cheng tried to let it out again, and was relieved to see that it was in normal condition.

"It's still early, let's catch a few more."

The group of people continued to move forward. The closer to the north, the lower the temperature. Now Qingzhou has entered summer, but this forest is still similar to early spring.

The colorful sparrow was not easy to find, and it took them a long time to find the second one.

"It's getting colder and colder." Zhuang Cheng frowned.

Yan Cheng said: "Look for another half an hour, if we can't find it, we will go back."

As soon as the words fell, the monk who was exploring the way ahead said: "There are footprints here, there are people nearby!"

Everyone's expressions changed.

"I haven't heard that there is a city to the north of us."

Because it is too close to the Hengduan Mountains, there are indeed no towns here.

Yan Cheng stepped forward, knelt down and examined it carefully: "It is indeed a human footprint."

He looked around: "Either there are hunting teams like us nearby, or there are people living nearby."

"Then shall we continue to search?" someone asked.

After all, here is already some distance away from Qingzhou, if something happens, I am afraid that everyone will not even be able to escape.

Yan Chengdao: "It's okay, I'm going out to explore the way this time, the city lord gave me a sword intent, even if the Jindan cultivator is in front, it can block it for a while."

Hearing the words of the city lord, the members of the hunting team felt relieved.

"The city lord really cares about us!" Zhuang Cheng lifted his spirits, this sword intent was given to the hunting team, isn't it just given to him?

Zhuang Cheng has recently learned a new self-comforting method. He can't see the city lord, but he can find the city lord's concern and love for him from everywhere through this method of comfort.

So he said: "If we only catch two colorful sparrows and go back, the city lord will definitely be disappointed. It's better to keep looking for one more."

The five words of disappointing the city lord are really stressful, and the others agreed after hearing the words: "Then look for it again."

Another quarter of an hour passed, and they did not find the bird, but they found the man.

Yan Cheng held a sword in his hand and looked at the few people in front of him warily.

Those people were wearing animal skins, leather boots on their feet, their hair was tied back in a mess, their exposed arms and calves were full of muscles, and they all looked sturdy.

"Hello everyone, we came here by chance to hunt, and it was fate that we met here. Please forgive me if I offend you." Seeing that the person opposite him was silent, Yan Cheng simply opened his mouth.

Those people looked at each other after hearing the words, and one of the tallest young people stood up and asked, "Where are you from?"

His accent was a bit strange, and Yan Cheng could barely understand: "We are from Qingzhou, how about you? I remember that there are no towns nearby."

Hearing the word Qingzhou, the man shook his head and said, "I've never heard of Qingzhou City, but since you are from the city, you must have a lot of things, we can do business with you."

Obviously this person is used to the deal he said: "Do you have any food? We can exchange it with you."

Yan Cheng's mind was spinning quickly, and he didn't answer the young man's question directly, but said: "What can you exchange?"

The young man said: "We have the best animal skins, we can exchange food with you!"

Yan Cheng looked at the young man carefully, and asked another irrelevant question: "Are you a Qi refining cultivator?"

The young man frowned and said, "Is it related to food exchange?"

Yan Cheng said: "It doesn't matter, I just think you are better than ordinary Qi refining monks."

He has seen a lot of monks in the Qi refining period, but it is extremely rare to see them as tough as the few facing them. These people are not so much Qi refining monks as they specialize in body training.

Seeing him keep talking about other things, the young man stopped asking: "Since you don't want to change, then forget it, let's go."

Yan Cheng said, "We don't have any food on us now, but if you don't need much, I can help you find a way."

He was very interested in this group of people and wanted to find out more about the situation.

Seeing that Yan Cheng agreed, the young man was also very happy, and directly said a number.

Yan Cheng thought for a while and said, "You want too much food, how many animal skins can you exchange?"

The young man answered according to the rules of dealing with other people in the past.

Yan Cheng was stunned when he heard the number.

When they were in Qu'an, more than 3 spirit stones were exchanged for two months' food. Of course, because of the presence of spirit beast meat in Qingzhou now, everyone's food needs were almost halved, but it can also be calculated roughly The amount of Lingshi that an individual needs to consume every month.

And a piece of animal skin, even in the Qi refining stage, can be exchanged for dozens of spirit stones, so Yan Cheng was shocked by the fact that a piece of animal skin was exchanged for a catty of grain in the young man's mouth.

After all, he still has some conscience: "Have you traded with other people at this price before?"

The young man nodded and said, "Yes, but they haven't been here for a long time."

Yan Cheng asked suspiciously, "Then what do you usually eat?"

The young man stopped talking.

Yan Cheng simply stopped asking, but said: "You have been deceived, a catty of food can't be exchanged for a piece of animal skin."

The young man was taken aback: "How much grain can that piece of animal skin be exchanged for?"

Yan Chengdao: "Look at the quality of your animal hides. If the quality is good, a piece of animal hide can exchange a person's food for a month."

If you don't eat meat, each person needs about [-] catties of food per month, and the cost is only a few dozen spirit stones. A good quality animal hide is of course enough.

The young man's face immediately changed when he heard the words.

"Then, then they lied to us?!" The young man asked anxiously and angrily.

Yan Cheng nodded and said, "Even if you count the traveling expenses for coming here to exchange food for you, you will suffer a lot."

However, he was also very curious. Since the young man was willing to suffer this loss, it meant that his family was rich. No one came to exchange food for so long, and they were still alive, which meant that they had other food besides food.

Could it be that there is a small town nearby?

Yan Cheng said: "Well, show me your animal skins, I'll take them back and ask the city lord, if the city lord agrees, we can also make a deal with you."

He had other thoughts in his heart, which is why he is particularly good at helping others, but the young man didn't know it, he only thought that Yan Cheng was a good person, and when he heard this, he asked someone to take out a piece of animal skin from his bag: "This is for you. .”

Yan Cheng's eyes flashed, the animal skin was black, and although the hair was short, it was very fine and dense, and it felt much better than the snow wolf's fur. I don't know what kind of monster's skin it was tanned.

He didn't delay, and after agreeing with the young man on the time and place to meet next time, he took the animal skin back to Qingzhou City.

"Oh? There is such a place?" Su Qiuyan also found it interesting, and he said, "In this case, let's do the transaction and charge some handling fees. Anyway, you will go there to catch colorful birds in the future. If they help, it will be a good thing." Good thing."

Yan Cheng nodded: "Then go to Qu'an this time, and help them exchange some food."

But before that, Yan Cheng still got Su Qiuyan's order to send them dozens of catties of grain.

Now Qingzhou is actually not too short of food, because as long as you eat two or two taels of meat every day, no matter whether you are a mortal or a monk, you will not be hungry all day long. The meat not only has calories, but also spiritual power, which can fully support a person for a day. consume.

But meat is not available every day, so everyone still saves a lot of food at home.

Now it is not difficult to take out dozens of catties to exchange with young people.

When he came to the forest again, the young man and others were already waiting there. Seeing Yan Cheng, the young man's eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "You are here!"

Yan Cheng nodded: "We brought some food to exchange with you today, but the amount is not much."

The young man heard the words and said: "It's good to have it!"

He went back yesterday and told his elders about meeting Yan Cheng, and the elders were as angry as him, and at the same time felt that Yan Cheng was a good person to associate with, so their attitudes today were much more enthusiastic.

The young man also introduced himself: "My name is Guan Jiang, and we are from Guancheng."

"Guancheng? Is there a city near here?" Yan Cheng asked.

Guan Jiang scratched his head and smiled, "This is our own name."

They are actually not considered a city. Everyone lives in a cave, and there are only less than 100 people in total. How can it be called a city?

The reason why he chose this name was because he knew the situation outside when he was in contact with other monks before, so Guan Jiang arbitrarily gave them the name of Guancheng, which sounds more dignified.

Although he looks tough, he doesn't have much scheming, not only him, but also other people from Guancheng. In just half a day, the people from Qingzhou became friends with them.

Yan Cheng didn't have the habit of bullying honest people, so he didn't plan to take advantage of them, and said directly: "In the future, you can find us for food, and we will go to Qu'an once every quarter, but we will charge you some transportation expenses After all, it takes at least two days to travel to and from Qu'an, and Lingshi is also needed to control the flying magic weapon."

Guan Jiangdao: "This is no problem!"

The clearer Yan Cheng said, the more reliable he felt Yan Cheng was.

"We will come here to catch colorful sparrows recently. You can prepare the animal skin first. If you are not at ease, you can ask someone to follow us to Qu'an."

After hearing Yan Cheng's words, Guan Jiang immediately excitedly said, "Can we go with us too?"

Yan Cheng nodded: "Yes."

Guan Jiang said: "Then I will follow!"

Yan Cheng also saw Guan Jiang's special status in Guancheng in the past two days, he might be someone like the Young City Lord, so he confirmed, "Does your elder agree?"

Guan Jiang said: "They will definitely agree!"

After saying this, Guan Jiang said again: "Are you here to catch colorful sparrows? I know where they are, so I'll take you there."

With his help, Yan Cheng and others found many colorful sparrows.

It's just that when there are more colorful sparrows, it's Ji Changlin's turn to worry.

"These sparrows are screaming and screaming every day, it's so annoying!" One sparrow is cute, two are fine, three or four can bear it, but when the whole room is full of sparrows, it's so annoying. collapsed.

Yan Chengdao: "Didn't the city lord say that we can build another room for you to raise colorful birds?"

Ji Changlin said: "You also said that I raised them, and I drew their blood. When they saw me, they kept barking like they had killed their father and enemy. I was almost quarreled to death."

When Caique was just brought to Qingyuan, it attracted a crowd of people watching, everyone wanted to raise it, and everyone wanted to touch it, but when Caique was sucked out of blood and started to go crazy, people in the same building as Yan Cheng I can't wait to send these colorful sparrows away.

That's why Su Qiuyan said to build another house to raise her.

They just set up another room, but these colorful sparrows still went crazy when they saw Ji Changlin. Not only did they not eat, but even their feathers started to fall off.

After Su Qiuyan found out, he sighed and said, "Forget it, let's send these colorful sparrows to the City Lord's Mansion. From now on, we will draw blood every three months, so that they won't suffer too much."

Xie Ang said worriedly: "City Master, your body is important. If these colorful sparrows are too noisy, how will you rest? I think it's better to keep them outside. If they really die, just go and catch them."

Nothing is more important than Su Qiuyan.

Su Qiuyan shook his head and said, "It's okay, you can ask Ji Changlin to send the colorful sparrows over."

Qin Yue also disagreed, but he had never been able to object to Su Qiuyan's decision, so he could only watch a dozen colorful sparrows being sent into the City Lord's Mansion.

The strange thing is that the dying colorful sparrows became energetic after entering the City Lord's Mansion. Although they were still singing, they were all normal bird calls, and they were no longer howling like crazy before.

Ji Changlin was also surprised: "What happened to them?"

Xie Ang was also puzzled: "Could it be that the aura in the City Lord's Mansion is strong, so they are fine?"

This is possible.

But as they continued to walk in, these colorful sparrows became restless-they were still staying in the cage, but now they all started to bump into the cage in one direction.

Xie Ang frowned and said, "That direction is Green Bamboo Garden, what's wrong with them?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw two figures appearing at the hanging flower gate.

"City Master, why are you here?" Xie Ang hurried forward and said.

As soon as he stepped forward, those colorful sparrows became even more crazy.

Su Qiuyan sighed, "Let them out."

Xie Ang looked at the birds, then at the city lord, and a terrible guess floated in his mind.

These birds have such an abnormal reaction, can't it be because of the city lord?

He hesitated to open the cage, and in an instant, the colorful sparrows came out of the cage like fierce tigers, chasing each other, trying their best without showing any weakness, and even a few of them deliberately pecked his own in order to occupy the position on Su Qiuyan's shoulders. companion.

This situation made Qin Yue's face change. Just as he was about to make a move, he heard Su Qiuyan say: "Don't hurt them."

At this time, there were already two colorful sparrows standing on Su Qiuyan's shoulders, and they were rubbing their feathers against his face in attachment, while the others flew beside him, eager to get closer to him.

"Okay, the colorful sparrows will be raised in the Green Bamboo Garden, you guys go down."

Xie Ang's eyes were staring straight, and Ji Changlin was about the same. After Su Qiuyan left, the two of them looked at each other, and at the same time, a terrible thought came to mind - in this Qingzhou City, it's okay for people to compete for favor, but birds are also starting to compete for favor !

Qin Yue stared dangerously at the bird beside Su Qiuyan: "City Lord, why don't I help you..."

Su Qiuyan said: "Forget it, if they don't keep them here, they will probably die. These birds are not easy to catch. If you really want to make alchemy, it's better to keep them."

He stretched out his hand and poked the wing of the bird on the right: "It's very pitiful to be sucked out of blood. In the future, you will bring them with you when you practice, so that they can absorb the fire spirit power that you overflow."

"As for why they are so sticky to me..." Su Qiuyan paused, "Just treat me like everyone loves me."

"Thank you, butler, for asking you, you can answer like this."

When Qin Yue heard the words, he knew that the city lord was lying. There must be other reasons why the bird likes to pester him. This reason must have made the city lord feel ashamed, so the city lord was unwilling to say it.

Since the city owner doesn't want to say it, he won't ask, and he won't allow others to ask.

It has to be said that Qin Yue still knows Su Qiuyan very well, and this matter is really embarrassing, so Su Qiuyan is unwilling to say it.

If it wasn't for the fact that these birds were about to die, he wouldn't have asked Ji Changlin to send the birds to the City Lord's Mansion.

Back then in Xianshan, he accidentally ate an unknown elixir made by his master. Since then, as long as it is a monster or spirit beast with wings, seeing him is as affectionate as meeting the same family, so the place where he lives There are always a bunch of birds, even birds, chickens, ducks and geese always escape from prison and come to him. He has been laughed at for many years, so this matter must not be known to others.

Fortunately, Qingzhou City is clean, no one raises chickens, geese or ducks.

He has to tell Yan Cheng that this bird is almost enough, don't continue to catch it.

Yan Cheng, who was thought of by Su Qiuyan, did not live up to his expectations at the moment, he was indeed not catching birds, and he was leading Guan Jiang to Qingzhou City.

Guan Jiang had a hundred thousand reasons, and he never closed his mouth along the way: "Are you Qingzhou City University?"

"How many of you are there?"

"What do you usually do?"

"Where do you live?"

"How is your city master?"

Yan Cheng could only keep a cold face: "You will know when you arrive in Qingzhou."

Because he was going to Qu'an City with Guan Jiang the next day, he had to pick him up to Qingzhou first.

Unexpectedly, Guan Jiang turned out to be a chatterbox, which really gave Yan Cheng a headache.

Yan Cheng always thought that since there are few people in Qingzhou, it would be great if he could bring in all the people from Guancheng, but now, he really doubted his decision.

The power of chatterbox is really not something he can bear.
