Yuantian Pidao

Chapter 33 Wolf Disaster
On the south slope, the vegetable garden is covered with a touch of fresh green as the spring breeze blows by.

Standing at the edge of the vegetable field and watching this scene, Jiang Chen felt a special kind of joy and satisfaction in his heart. This joy could not be explained to outsiders. Perhaps only those real farmers could resonate with him at this moment.

Next to him was an old man wearing coarse linen clothes, with a thin body, sallow skin, a mouth full of yellow teeth, and a dull expression. He did not look like a bandit at all.

"Old Huang, how long will it take for these vegetables to mature?"

Looking at the entire vegetable garden, Jiang Chen asked casually.

Hearing this, the old man next to him was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted.

"Master, the cauliflower will be mature in seven days. The white cabbage will be mature later, about half a month. As for the others, we have to wait at least a month."

Old Huang pointed at the vegetables and told them the time for them to mature one by one. At this moment, his originally dull temperament disappeared and he had the demeanor of someone who could give orders.

Hearing this, Jiang Chen nodded.

"Old Huang, you cooked very well. You took good care of these dishes."

Bending down, Jiang Chen brushed his fingertips over the tender leaves that seemed to be able to squeeze out water, and began to praise.

There were no vegetable fields in Jinsha Valley originally. It was only after he came that people opened up a vegetable field on the south slope. Old Huang made an indispensable contribution to the fact that these vegetables grew so well.

Hearing this, a smile suddenly appeared on Old Huang's originally dry face, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.

"Master, you're too kind. This land is great. I, Old Huang, have been growing vegetables for decades, but this is the first time I've seen vegetables growing so juicy. It's as if the land is imbued with divine energy."

With a submissive look on his face, Old Huang uttered his own sigh.

To be honest, he really put a lot of effort into this vegetable field. He even didn't dare to sleep too deeply at night for fear that something might go wrong. After all, he was not farming for a rich landlord, but for a big bandit who killed people without blinking an eye. If he didn't farm well, he might lose his life if he wasn't careful.

Hearing this, Jiang Chen remained silent and didn't say much. This land was actually very ordinary, but the reason these vegetables grew so well was that they were indeed touched by a bit of fairy energy, or to be more precise, spiritual energy.

It was at this time that Shu Tianjiao came galloping from a distance with a bucket on his head. He walked very steadily, as if walking on flat ground, and not a drop of water in the bucket spilled.

“Squeak, squeak…”

When Shu Tianjiao came in front of Jiang Chen, he called out a few words.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen nodded.

The next moment, Shu Tianjiao swung his tail and flexibly rolled up a gourd ladle like a hand, and began to take water from the bucket to water the vegetables.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak, you take a scoop, I take half a scoop, you take a scoop, I take a scoop, you take half a scoop, I take a scoop..."

Shu Tianjiao walks briskly between the fields, watering the vegetables diligently. His movements are extremely agile, just like an old farmer. The only strange thing is that he often drinks a bucket of water himself after pouring it.

Taking it all in, Jiang Chen nodded silently.

"The spiritual charm has been born. After this period of training, Shu Tianjiao's self-tempering is finally on the right track."

"Besides that, it observed my training before and developed a set of martial arts that suited it, the Willow Catkin Whip, which it has now completely integrated into its life."

Observing the various changes in Rat Tianjiao, Jiang Chen gained a general understanding of its cultivation progress. In terms of cultivation realm, Rat Tianjiao was actually still in the initial stages of the inspiration period, still refining its limbs. However, it was a demon beast after all, possessing extraordinary bloodline and a naturally strong physique. Furthermore, its frequent refining of blood and qi further enhanced its physical strength.

Today, with its strong body and gigantic technique, Shu Tianjiao can already fight against the top-notch warriors among humans. However, it lacks the experience of life-and-death battles, and it is difficult to maintain the gigantic technique for a long time, so it is likely that it will not be the opponent.

As time passed, Shu Tianjiao quickly watered the vegetable patch. Of course, its belly also became full, but it was full of water. This was the reward it received for watering the vegetable patch for Jiang Chen. The well water contained a tiny amount of spiritual energy, which was beneficial to its own practice after absorption.

Because of its own blood, it has a big appetite and digests food quickly, so these well waters are of great help to it.

“Squeak, squeak…”

Coming in front of Jiang Chen, Shu Tianjiao reported his work seriously.

Looking at this scene, Old Huang lowered his head silently. When he first saw this scene, he was also shocked, but over time, he got used to it. He believed that Jiang Chen was the strange man in the vernacular novel, and it was normal for the pet following him to be extraordinary.

And at this moment, Stone came rushing over from a distance.

"Third Master, something happened to the hunting team."

Panting, Shi Tou's face was full of anxiety.

Listening to Shi Tou's continuous story, Jiang Chen's brows gradually furrowed.

Because of the research on blood flame magic, refining of coagulation stones, and breeding of rats, the hunting team's tasks have not been reduced. As they have been hunting for a long time, it has become difficult to hunt any decent prey near the Jinsha Valley. For this reason, they have to go deep into the mountains.

But this time they encountered a pack of wolves in the mountains. This pack of wolves was different from ordinary packs. Not only were their individual wolves strong, but their numbers were also large, so that the entire hunting team suffered heavy losses. If it weren't for the skinny monkey leading the team himself this time, who knows how many people would have been left in the mountains forever.

"A wolf pack that's quite powerful and numerous, that's a bit against the laws of nature."

As his thoughts turned, Jiang Chen thought of something.

"Let's go and meet Skinny Monkey. There are some things we still need to confirm."

Without much hesitation, Jiang Chen turned and left the vegetable garden.

Seeing this, Shu Tianjiao hurriedly followed.

"A wolf disaster? I hope nothing serious happens."

Watching Jiang Chen and his group go away, Old Huang couldn't help but reveal a look of worry on his face.

His real name is Huang Shi. He was called Huang Laojiu because he was the ninth child in the family. Later, his hometown suffered a disaster, and he became a miner in Jinsha Valley by chance. Later, Nanpo recruited odd jobs to be responsible for growing vegetables, and he was selected because of his outstanding skills.

Here, he has seen many different things and has also been frightened, but it is undeniable that the life here suits him very well. He does not need to think too much and just needs to serve the land in front of him wholeheartedly. It is precisely because of this that he cherishes his stable life today.

"With a figure like the master here, there shouldn't be any problems with Jinsha Valley."

With a light sigh, Lao Huang picked up the hoe and continued his work today. As long as the sky did not fall, he would still plant the fields.
