Longevity, Starting From Raising Chickens

Chapter 85 Lakeside

Although he was extremely curious about what Zhao Feng had left on his abdomen and ribs before.

But Wang Ba still suppressed his curiosity and put all the yellow-throated stone turtles into his spirit animal bag.

Then start looking for a suitable breeding place.

It didn't take long for him to find an open and airy area on the bank of Nanhu Lake.

"This place is quite suitable."

Wang Ba turned around and finally decided to locate the chicken farm here.

Mainly because he also considered the possibility of raising yellow-throated stone turtles in the future.

Although the yellow-throated stone turtle can also survive on land, it is still water-oriented after all, and it is more convenient to be close to water sources.

Without suitable tools at hand, Wang Ba could only chop off century-old trees with his bare hands, and then split them into sections one by one, buried them, and surrounded them with wooden walls.

"This kind of big tree is almost close to the spiritual plant... It's a pity that touching it is the same as touching other plants, and there is no longevity. I don't know if the plant will show the longevity if it becomes a demon."

Wang Ba felt slightly regretful.

But I didn't think much about it, and then I started to get busy.

After all, it was only a few days after he succeeded in Qi Refining, and the accumulated mana was quickly exhausted, so he could only sit down cross-legged for a while, absorbing and refining the meager spiritual energy nearby, and then transforming it into mana.

After that, he got up to chop trees and bury piles. When his mana was exhausted, he meditated again.

Repeat.

"If you have the chance, you must go to the 'practice room' in Fang City to experience the experience. It is really painful to practice here!"

Wang Ba, who had no choice but to pause the refining after absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy again, was speechless.

It's a pity that he doesn't have a single spirit stone on him now.

There are rare chickens and spiritual chickens, but he won't sell them for the time being.

It was not until it was almost dark that Wang Ba managed to bury the wooden piles of the outer wall of the chicken farm, and at the same time built a very simple and even leaky wooden house inside.

But it's enough.

Sitting in the wooden house, facing the South Lake.

The moonlight shone on the lake, creating sparkling waves, but a feeling of hunger broke this rare peace.

Wang Ba also became interested, so he took off his clothes and was about to jump off the South Lake to catch two fish.

Although his water skills are average, with his current physical fitness, he can dive deep in the water for a long time, and it doesn't take much effort to catch a few fish.

He just lowered his head, only to find that the skin on the abdominal ribs was extremely smooth, and there was no sign of hiding anything at all.

The previously suppressed curiosity finally couldn't be restrained.

He couldn't resist touching it.

"It's strange... It's clearly palpable, it's round, but it feels like it's sticking."

After thinking about it, Wang Ba gently picked it with his fingers, but he couldn't get the round thing out at all.

It was as if this thing had grown on him.

"Why did Brother Zhao suddenly give me this..."

Wang Ba couldn't help but began to recall the experience of last night.

Brother Zhao seemed to have noticed something after the black-clothed monk appeared, and then he deliberately slapped himself as if to explain the funeral, but in fact he slapped himself in the abdomen with this strange thing .

And that black-clothed monk, if nothing else happened, should be Lu Yuansheng, the former great disciple of the outer sect that Zhao Feng had always been obsessed with.

Thinking of the gleam in Zhao Feng's eyes every time he talked about Lu Yuansheng, Wang Ba felt inexplicably complicated.

Perhaps for Zhao Feng, he is more willing to believe that Lu Yuansheng is really dead.

He shook his head gently, shaking off these useless emotions.

Wang Ba showed a thoughtful look on his face:

"In that case, Senior Brother Zhao knew he was going to die, so he left this invisible thing to me. In other words, this thing is either extremely important to Senior Brother Zhao, or Senior Brother Zhao thinks it is very important to me."

"If I can use it... I know."

With a heartbeat, Wang Ba mobilized the few mana in the dantian to the palm of his hand little by little, and immediately touched the ribs.

But to his surprise, this method didn't work. He still could only touch it, but not see it.

After thinking about it, he mobilized his mana from his body to his abdominal ribs.

However, his expression soon changed drastically!

The moment the few wisps of mana just touched the position of the abdominal ribs, it seemed to fall into the deep sea vortex.

The powerful suction force instantly absorbed all his magic power!

But this time, even though the thing on his belly was fleeting, Wang Ba still saw it.

That's a bead.

A dark-looking iron bead.

It was embedded between his abdominal ribs, like a raised birthmark.

Even though it was silent, he could faintly feel that there seemed to be an astonishing Sword Intent in it.

Just looking at it, he felt his eyes sting.

If it absorbs enough mana, Wang Ba can't imagine what kind of changes it will produce.

"Law Weapon? Or what?"

Wang Ba was shocked in his heart.

Unfortunately, with his meager magic power, it is really difficult to meet the demand for this bead.

Sighing regretfully, Wang Ba didn't indulge in such emotions, he walked quickly to the lakeside, jumped hard, and after a while, he threw a few big fish to the shore.

After landing on the shore, he simply disemboweled the fish with smashed stone fragments, washed it with lake water, and then directly scraped off the deboned fish meat and put it in his mouth.

Sweet and delicious, it melts in your mouth.

"There shouldn't be any parasites or anything, right?"

"But these fish can't find longevity... It seems that what I thought is right, not all animals can find longevity."

Under the moonlight, while chewing raw fish, he carefully reviewed the experiences of the past year.

What concerned him the most was undoubtedly his greatest reliance - the ability to carry longevity.

Although in practice, it was found that this ability actually had many limitations, but just being able to help spirit beasts achieve longevity breakthroughs gave him too much room for manipulation.

But Wang Ba has also been thinking about a question.

Why didn't he discover this ability until he joined the Dongsheng Sect?

In fact, he had come into contact with all kinds of living creatures in his mortal life. In this life, although he came from a wealthy family, he was not immune to the elements.

Therefore, Wang Ba guessed that most of the living animals such as rare chickens and colorful ducks were different from the living animals at the foot of the mountain.

After thinking about it, the only difference he could think of was that living creatures in the world have less aura than rare chickens.

Although rare chickens are also ordinary chickens, because they contain spiritual energy in their bodies, they are infinitely close to spiritual birds, so they become spiritual food raised by monks.

There are many rare birds and animals in the world, but not all of them can be included in the monk's menu.

He touched a lot of fish in the lake just now, which proved this point.

None of these fish can trigger the longevity panel.

Thinking of this, he suddenly recalled the yellow-throated stone turtles during the day, and quickly took out a few from the spirit beast bag.

[Target life span: 46.1 years], [39.6 years], [47.3 years], [49.8 years]…

Longevity varies, but generally remains around 45-55 years.

This is somewhat different from many people’s impression that turtles can live for thousands of years.

However, Wang Ba is not surprised. It has been recorded in Jiaohu Taoist's "Bi Tan" that the life span of most mortal turtles is only thirty or forty years.

And although forty or fifty years is not much, it is already twice as long as the twenty years of rare chickens.

"The breeding difficulty of yellow-throated stone turtles is lower than that of rare chickens. Due to their low IQ, they relatively follow animal instincts."

Wang Ba carefully recalled the records in "Bi Tan Tan".

"What's more troublesome is that the yellow-throated stone turtle only lays four clutches of eggs a year, and each clutch usually only has four or five eggs."

"After the turtle eggs are hatched, the mother turtle does not need to lie down in the nest, but the incubation period is much longer than that of the eggs. It takes a full three months to hatch."

"The advantages and disadvantages are quite obvious."

"If these yellow-throated stone turtles can be purchased in large quantities, they can become another source of longevity."

After eating all the raw fish and meat in one go, Wang Ba deposited longevity yuan into all the yellow-throated stone turtles one by one.

What surprised him was that the deposit and withdrawal ratio of Yellow-throated Stone Turtle Shouyuan was similar to that of rare chicken.

Then he dug a shallow pit with a wooden stick and introduced some lake water into the pit, blocking the possibility of the yellow-throated stone turtles escaping.

Then he returned to his cabin with peace of mind and fell into a deep sleep.

On this day, he was really tired.

…

Early the next morning, he used the telegraph to tell Yu Changchun that he had chosen a location to raise chickens.

Of course, the transmission talisman was given by Yu Changchun before, and it is said to be worth three Low Grade spiritual stones.

Anyway, Wang Ba clearly remembered the distress on Yu Changchun's face when he gave him the transmission talisman.

He was really speechless about this.

The dignified monk from Qi Refining Late Stage is so picky.

Not long after, Yu Changchun rushed over and personally delivered chicken feed as high as a hill in a storage bag.

"I brought them all here from the original Jingshan Fang. Not many people in our Tianmen Sect know how to raise these. They will be enough for you to use for a while!"

"Uh... there are some things in here that will break down over time."

Wang Ba couldn't help but remind him.

Yu Changchun suddenly looked confused: "There is still this matter? What should we do?"

"There is nothing we can do for now, we can only use it for now."

Wang Ba shook his head. Compared with the already well-established chain of raising chickens in the Eastern Sacred Sect, in the Tianmen Sect, this kind of magic Dao Sect sect, I am afraid that more people are digging people's bones.

Raising chickens is really too difficult for them.

Yu Changchun, who was unable to help him, suddenly felt a little embarrassed. After hesitating for a while, he counted out five spirit stones from the storage bag.

"This... If you need anything, you can go to Fangshi to have a look."

After all, maybe he felt that the spirit stones given were too few, so he chatted for a while and left in a hurry.

Looking at the several spirit stones in his hand, Wang Ba couldn't help shaking his head slightly.

This is really not willing to let the horse eat grass, but also wants the horse to run.

But I have to say that although the five spirit stones are not too much, they really solved Wang Ba's urgent need.

Among other things, if I had more axes for mortals in my hand yesterday, it wouldn't be so strenuous.

He hurried to Nanhufang City and bought a batch of supplies and tools such as pots, stoves, dishes, bed quilts, knives and axes, and Lingmi.

Now he is just a little monk who has just joined Qi Refining, he can use most of the things of ordinary people, and the most important thing is that the price is not expensive.

So after purchasing, there are still four spirit stones left.

When he walked past the 'human puppet shop', he couldn't help but stop when he saw the human puppets with their eyes closed standing inside the shop.

There was a hint of heartbeat in his eyes.

These human puppets are said to be puppets, but in fact they are all made of living people. After being activated, they are no different from living people. While maintaining their own consciousness, they cannot refuse any request from the master.

Among them are many beautiful Kunxiu and powerful monks.

Of course, the combat power is definitely not comparable to that of normal monks.

In Wang Ba's view, although it is too cruel to make a puppet from a living person, if he can have a puppet to help him manage the chicken farm, he will have enough time to practice.

Anyway, the transformation of rare chickens into spiritual chickens is just a matter of depositing longevity yuan, and there is no need for him to stay in the chicken farm himself.

But after looking around, he still had no choice but to leave.

expensive!

It's just too expensive.

Even a human puppet refined by an ordinary mortal needs 10 spirit stones.

You also need to buy a special mobilization formula, which costs another 5 spirit stones.

Wang Ba seemed to have a deeper understanding of the Tianmen Sect's methods of exploiting these outsider monks.

"By the way, isn't Yu Changchun from Xuan Puppet? Can you ask him to provide a human puppet?"

Thinking of this, Wang Ba prepared to let Yu Changchun shed some blood the next time he saw him.

But when he left Fangshi, he unexpectedly saw a familiar face.

"Is it her? She is still alive?"
