Stone Village was very peaceful, presenting a different atmosphere from the surrounding, noisy primeval forest, as if isolated from the world.
The fathers of Dazhuang and the others all came to the village chief's home, asking Shi Yunfeng and Shi Linhu about their children, who hadn't been seen for the better part of the day.
They were all very anxious and wanted to grab their weapons and go into the forest to find them.
Shi Yunfeng gestured for them not to worry. Seeing that they had calmed down, he comforted them, saying, "With Long Xuan there, there won't be any major problems. He's stronger than most of you."
Hearing what the village chief said, they relaxed a little. They had all seen him lift the large cauldron last time; it was truly ferocious.
Roar!
Just as they were anxiously waiting, a beast's roar interrupted them.
They hurriedly brought their weapons and rushed to the door, watching an Azure Dragon fly over in the distance, and they all became alert.
The women had all taken shelter inside the stone houses.
Willow God, sensing a familiar aura, did not intervene.
Sharp-eyed Shi Feijiao spotted some familiar figures on the Azure Dragon's back.
He immediately told those nearby, "It's Dazhuang and the others!" Upon closer inspection, it was indeed them, and they relaxed.
Bang!
A dull thud echoed as the Azure Dragon slowly landed.
A group of children, chattering excitedly, jumped down and ran towards them.
They exclaimed, "Long Xuan caught an Azure Dragon to guard our village! Look!"
The villagers were happy, but still scolded the group of rascals. "You don't know your own limits! Daring to run off like that! If it weren't for Little Xuan, you wouldn't have made it back."
The group of children all lowered their heads after being scolded.
Long Xuan walked over to the Willow God and asked, "Sister Willow God, is there a way to control it? It's only restrained because of me. If I'm not here, it might hurt others."
"Simple!"
She replied with a single word, then a willow branch tapped the Azure Dragon's forehead. The Azure Dragon, upon seeing the Willow God, looked as if it had seen something terrifying. It didn't dare to move, allowing the willow branch to imprint a silver symbol on its forehead.
After finishing, she said softly, "Go back and be with them!"
After the Azure Dragon was branded with the mark, it became well-behaved and even more reverent.
It followed Long Xuan into the village, its body shrinking as they went.
The villagers also went forward to greet him, and Long Xuan felt very warm seeing their concern.
"Fellow uncles, I caught a guard. Although it's not an Ancient Desolate Species, it has some strength."
Behind him, the Azure Dragon was utterly devastated, caught and then looked down upon.
Shi Linhu, leading the burly men, all burst into laughter. "Little Xuan, it's okay. When your cultivation is higher, catch a few more Ancient Desolate Species for Stone Village, and we'll strive for one per person!"
Long Xuan laughed and agreed.
The Azure Dragon couldn't help but roll its eyes, What kind of village is this? So fierce, wanting an Ancient Desolate Species for each person.
Seeing that Long Xuan had caught an Azure Dragon, the villagers all greeted him and celebrated simply.
At the simple bonfire party, everyone ate, drank, and chatted, it was very lively. Since Long Xuan came to Stone Village, life seemed to have gotten better.
Stone Village was located in the wilderness, where ferocious beasts roamed and life was precarious. Their lives were simple; they were content as long as they had enough to eat and their children could grow up safely.
The villagers gathered around a bonfire, their faces lit with smiles and filled with laughter.
"Little ones, don't run later. Everyone will take a Medicinal Bath. I guarantee you'll be stronger than the ferocious beasts afterward," an old man said.
"No, ahh!" A group of mischievous children scattered in all directions at the sound of it, trying to hide.
How could a bunch of little kids outrun the adults? They were all caught like little chickens. "Don't be ungrateful! The Medicinal Bath is very nourishing, strengthening the body and building a good foundation."
The children struggled desperately, but they were too small and couldn't compete with the adults. They were all dragged back.
Several large cauldrons were set up in the open space, with flames roaring beneath them. The water inside was bubbling. The old man added many herbs, along with various poisonous insects, large spiders, and red centipedes. The water, originally clear, immediately turned pitch black.
The mischievous children's faces turned green on the spot. If the adults hadn't stopped them, they would have all run away.
Then, they took out some earthen jars and carefully poured in a deep red liquid. This was True Blood extracted from the ferocious beasts. They also smashed the bones of the Kui Beast and Bear Python and threw them in.
配合古方上的草药,能更好的激发出其内的神性物质,能够增强体质.
Using the herbs from the ancient formula would better stimulate the divine essence within, enhancing the body's constitution.
把火熄灭,水温下降之后,直接扑通扑通的把孩子全部扔了进去.
After extinguishing the fire and letting the water cool, they unceremoniously tossed all the children in.
"啊!好痛,要被煮熟了,皮肉都要开裂了."
"Ah! It hurts so much! I'm going to be cooked! My skin is going to split!"
一个个全部要都往外跑,刚露头就按了回去,只有几个稍微好一点,忍着痛不吭声.
Each child tried to scramble out, but they were immediately pushed back down. Only a few, who were slightly better, endured the pain without making a sound.
而小不点则被特殊关照,石云峰往里面放入两罐特殊的血,发出霞光,都能显化出貔貅和犀牛的身形,结果直接被老村长掌心凝聚骨纹直接给拍散.
Little Bud received special treatment. Shi Yunfeng added two jars of special blood, which emitted a radiant glow, even manifesting the forms of a Pixiu and a Rhinoceros. But the old village chief dispersed it with Bone Runes from his palm.
水温稍降直接就将小不点给扔了进去,因为个子矮,直接扑腾喝了两口.
After the water cooled slightly, Little Bud was thrown in. Because he was short, he splashed and ended up swallowing two mouthfuls.
而龙轩则是没想到他也有,里面加了好几罐特殊的血,从老村长的表情可以看出很是珍贵,让他觉得他被当成自己人了.
Long Xuan didn't expect to have this treatment as well. Several jars of special blood were added to his Medicinal Bath. Judging from the old village chief's expression, it was very precious, and he felt like he was considered one of them.
材料都下好之后,等待水温降低直接自己就跳了进去.
After all the ingredients were added, he waited for the water to cool down and then jumped in himself.
The medicinal effects slowly seeped into the skin, tempering his physique bit by bit. Long Xuan felt his strength gradually increase; the medicinal formula was very effective.
"Both Little Xuan and Little Bud are extraordinary. The special power of the Bone Runes helps refine the medicinal power, so it's not too painful."
They soaked in the Medicinal Bath for a long time, until they looked like red-skinned monkeys. When the time was up, they were both dragged out, tears streaming down their faces. The little rascal, Little Bud, had a rosy face when he was pulled out.
Bone Runes covered Long Xuan's body, and he began to frantically absorb the remaining medicinal liquid. A vortex appeared in the calm water, centered around him. In a short while, the ink-black medicinal liquid turned clear and transparent.
With a little effort, he leaped up. His skin was fair with a healthy flush, a proper little pretty boy.
He raised his right arm, and Bone Runes appeared, and blood qi overflowed. He grabbed a stone mountain and lifted it with a single push. The other adults were dumbfounded. One hundred and eight thousand jin! It was simply ferocious.
Long Xuan looked at it with some satisfaction. He had reached the Extreme Realm and was ready to break through.
The other adults and the village chief all exclaimed, "Little Xuan, you are truly a little monster! We'll have to rely on you in the future to catch more ferocious beasts."
Long Xuan smiled apologetically and nodded. The other little rascals were all so sleepy they could barely keep their eyes open.
Shi Yunfeng spoke up, "Take these children back and let them get a good night's sleep. They'll gain a lot of strength by tomorrow."
The other elders stayed behind to boil the remaining liquid, adding some herbs to make a medicinal powder for external injuries. It would be enough to save their lives if applied at a critical moment.
Long Xuan, full of energy, stayed behind to move the bronze cauldron back.
That night, the children all slept soundly. The next day, many of them woke up with dead skin peeling off, and they started wailing.
The parents shouted, "Quickly fetch water and wash yourselves clean, then come out and lift the stone mill! If you can't lift it, your butts will be spanked. Did the medicine from last night go to waste?"
For a while, there was chaos, and everyone ran out to carry the cauldrons and lift the stones. After the medicinal bath from yesterday, their strength had visibly increased. They had essentially been reborn.
As for Little Bud, he had drunk a special treasure medicine brewed by Shi Yunfeng. His eyes were bloodshot, and he ran around everywhere, howling and causing a ruckus throughout the village. Some of the aunties ran out to complain.
A group of people were stunned, as the well-behaved Little Bud had transformed into a ferocious beast, wreaking havoc everywhere.
At this moment, the old patriarch came out and said, "He ate the medicinal liquid and absorbed it very well. He has a bit too much energy. Don't worry, it will be fine in a little while."
The few mischievous children in the distance heard the old patriarch's calm explanation and couldn't help but whisper together, "How tragic."
Bone Runes began to climb on Little Bud's arms, looking very mysterious. His physique had also improved a lot.
It wasn't until an hour later, after the effects of the medicine wore off, that he realized he had caused trouble. He went to apologize to those aunties, and they didn't blame him. They all said that Little Bud had grown up and had strength.
A little busy, I'll do two updates a day, at least.
