Chapter 152 [Thousands of Miles]

Fang Chang took out the fire folder, pulled off the cover, and shook it lightly, and the flames ignited.

Leaning close to the firewood under the cauldron, the flames quickly ignited, he shook the flame out again, closed the lid, and put it aside. His face was brightened by the orange-red flames, which also illuminated the small kitchen.

There are windows on all sides of the kitchen, just like this, and looking out through the window, you can see that the surrounding sky is getting darker, everything is starting to turn gray and blue, and the summer insects are surrounded by the grass, and they are also starting to sing happily.

The tired birds have already returned to their nests, including the eagle couple on the edge of the cliff. They are standing on the branches and combing each other's feathers.

Liu Aniu, who has simply remembered his name here, is still lying on the edge of the cliff beside the stone ring as usual, but there is an extra roof to protect it from the wind and rain, but Fang Chang used a split bamboo to give it to Ah. The cow took a shelter.

This small fire book was made in his spare time.

It looks simple, but it has failed many times. The outside is a bamboo tube, the inside is a paper roll, and some special grass blades are mixed in. There are a few small holes on the lid for ventilation to maintain slow combustion in the tube.

With it and the embers that often exist in the firepit, the previous set of bow-style fire-making tools was hung on the wall, and there was no need to take it down for a long time.

However, these gadgets were just done incidentally. In the past few months, Fang Chang's greatest achievement was to build a plank road for Xianqi Cliff.

From the nameless pool at the bottom of Xianqi Cliff, zigzags, along the cliff, straight up to the stone ring on the edge of the cliff—Fang Chang really used the stone ring as a gate.

In this cloud mountain, Zhang Shanshen, his only friend, spoke highly of this plank road.

Zhang Chun's original words were "With this plank road, if you come from me to play chess on the cliff, you don't have to go around so many hills anymore."

It's just that there are doors but no walls at the top of the cliff.

There is a small fenced courtyard in front of the hut, but it is not worthy of the momentum of the stone ring gate.

Fang Chang secretly planned that in the future, the entire top of the cliff, except the back mountain, would be surrounded by stones or shrubs as a low wall, so as to enclose this fairy cliff and make this place a world of its own.

In the following time, he renovated the roofs of his three houses.

Mainly thatched roofs in the bedrooms.

It has been a long time since it was built, and the thatch on the roof has decayed. If it is not repaired, it may start to leak.

When the Jade Pond was excavated, a lot of earth and rocks were unearthed, which were piled aside, and Fang Chang also dealt with them.

He trimmed the mound regularly, mixed it with lime and tamped it down, then surrounded it with stones, and built a square high platform with a small top and a big bottom.

As he continued to open the kiln, there were many bricks and tiles around the shed, but the consumption was very little, and most of them were unused.

Under the sun and rain, it is already a bit old.

There is no shortage of big trees in the mountains and forests, it is time to build a brick and tile dwelling for yourself.

Well, five rooms in a row may be called a palace.

After all, I don't lack materials, and I don't lack time and strength, so I just build it a little wider and taller to accommodate more sunlight.

The original house does not need to be demolished, the bedrooms are still there and can be replaced, the kitchen is still the kitchen, and the shed does not need to be changed. Even the hut that Fang Chang built when he first came to this fairy habitat cliff was left there, filled with firewood.

But let's not rush.

Once the foundation is laid, build slowly.

If there is a lack of bricks and tiles in the middle, start the kiln slowly.

If there is a lack of purlin rafter beams, just go slowly to the forest to find and cut them.

There is a lot of time, why be too urgent.

Anyway, this thatched cottage is quite comfortable. After all, for me, whether it is a grass nest cave, a carved bed brocade quilt, or even the earth as a bed and night wind as a quilt, as long as I live under this sky, it makes no difference , just convenient and inconvenient.

In addition to bricks and tiles, there is no shortage of good stones in Yunzhong Mountain, and some can also be moved as building materials.

The firewood was added continuously, the flames in the fire pond were very prosperous, the tripod was gradually heated up, the water inside was churning, the heat rose, and the food in it was gradually steamed, and then the steam dissipated along the gaps around the house into the night.

Cooking with a tripod is a waste of firewood, but it is much stronger than a clay pot and conducts heat better.

There are iron mines in Yunzhong Mountain, and Fang Chang only recently confirmed the location. Far to the west, on several red peaks, there are signs of ore seedlings, but his schedule is full and he has no time to deal with them.

The moon rose early today.

Fang Chang opened the lid, took out the food inside, put it on the stone table outside, and ate it under the moonlight.

There was still some sorghum wine in the gourd. He took out the cup and poured himself a small half cup, then sat on the stone bench, feeling the mountain breeze blowing on his face, took a small sip, and then took the chopsticks to eat.

The moonlight is so good.

This steamed salted fish dish is also good.

Suddenly, his spiritual sense was touched.

Frowning, Fang Chang looked west.

Although the continuous mountains of Yunzhong Mountain blocked all sight, but in his heart, he already knew what happened.

Fang Chang sighed lightly.

With a slight movement in his mind, the Lingquan sword behind his back screamed, jumped out of the sheath, and then, like a bolt of lightning, pierced into the cloud and disappeared.

…………

...

After the pangolin Tianshan came back from the main peak, he began to prepare.

When everything is in place, it will be very close to the "five days later" that the Demon King said. Seeing that the time was up, he got up early and gathered his demons.

After the sound of the clapper sounded, it took more than half an hour for the monsters in Fengming Cave to gather outside the cave.

Standing on a big rock, the pangolin is full of vigor:

"Little ones!"

"The demon king has ordered, this time it's our turn to descend from Fengming Cave!"

"You all dress neatly and act together with me. This time, you are going to eat and drink spicy food!"

The group of demons rejoiced.

Those who were able to speak after their bones melted shouted: "The leader is amazing!"

The ones who couldn't speak in human voice also barked in animal language, and at the same time kept jumping and jumping, as if they were having a carnival. They recorded all the credit for receiving the task on the leader, so they were very enthusiastic.

When the monsters went back and got their weapons—it was nothing more than sticks, spears, hammers, homemade maces, etc.—when they assembled, another half an hour passed.

The march was also fraught with problems.

It was the first time he led the monsters out of the mountains, and the pangolins had very little experience. The large group of monsters walked slowly and tightly in the mountains. The team was chaotic and crowded, and they were often trampled.

However, according to his deputy dog ​​demon, this scene is actually a normal situation, and so are the other leaders and subordinates.

The pangolin's plan is to find a direction to go straight to the human territory, sweep the villages and towns along the way, obtain supplies and captures, then change direction, and return to Ant Mountain after a few days.

He even lined up a few scouts in a decent manner based on what he learned from the demon king to investigate the surrounding situation.

After leaving the ant hill, it is human farmland.

There are some villages on both sides, but Tian Shan feels that there is not much oil and water in them, and he is not very satisfied, so he strictly ordered the group of demons under him not to go there, and continue to move forward.

Soon, a scout ran quickly from the front:

"Boss, there should be a legendary human town ahead."
