Tian Xiaoding has been on the run for more than a year since he left the Tianyang Sect. This time, he finally found a place to settle down.
Xiao Ding is quite satisfied with this place.
He named the mountain here Tianyao Mountain, the triangular valley between the three mountains Taoyuan Holy Valley, and the newly built village in Taoyuan Holy Valley he named Tianyao Village.
The name of this village is based on the name he gave it when he was in Liutai Mountain. One is to commemorate the original Liutai Mountain cottage; the other is because the word Tianyao symbolizes the sun, moon and stars in the sky, implying that the cottage can shine brightly in the future.
It took almost a month to finally complete the construction of the new cottage house.
It was now late autumn, and the weather was getting colder.
The flat land in the valley is very large, covering hundreds of acres. The houses built in the cottage only occupy a corner of the valley. The large area of land outside the house is covered with wormwood.
Xiao Ding chose a windless day to let the bandits shovel out the isolation zone, and then set fire to all the dry wormwood after autumn, burning it to ashes.
The advantage of this is that the burned vegetation ash covers the land and can become a very good fertilizer. Moreover, various insects and insect eggs on the land will also die in large numbers due to burning.
In this way, when the wasteland is cleared for farming next spring, the land will be more fertile, and pests will be reduced after crops are planted.
After the houses were built in Taoyuan Sacred Valley, everyone in the village moved to the valley.
Xiao Ding did not give up on the huge cave halfway up the mountain. He set up a psychedelic array at the entrance of the huge cave. This is not to prevent someone from going in and stealing things. In fact, the cave was so poor that even if someone went in and stole it, they wouldn't be able to steal anything useful.
The purpose of Xiaoding's psychedelic array at the entrance of the cave is to prevent wild beasts from entering and settling inside. After all, he plans to use this huge cave to store food in the future. If there are wild animals making a home in it, then no matter how much food is put in it, it will not be enough to waste.
Taoyuan Sacred Valley is located in the middle of three mountains, so the valley has three exits.
However, with the three peaks connected together, only one exit is level with the other flat areas, making it a relatively smooth exit. The other two exits, located where two mountains are connected, are also somewhat high.
For the convenience of naming these three peaks of Tianyao Mountain, Xiao Ding also gave them corresponding names.
Among them, Xiao Ding named the highest main peak, the peak at the back, Tongtian Peak; Xiao Ding named the other two peaks, Xiangtian Peak and Yingtian Peak.
The peak with the cave is Xiangtian Peak on the left.
The three peaks stand in the shape of a "pin", with Xiangtian Peak and Yingtian Peak in front on the left and right, and Tongtian Peak in the back. Each peak is surrounded by cliffs, high and steep, like three sharp swords reaching into the sky.
Among them, only the gap between Xiangtian Peak and Yingtian Peak is the lowest and is consistent with the ground. Like a gate, it has become the only convenient passage into the valley. The stream in the valley flows out of the mountain from this outlet.
The connecting locations between Xiangtian Peak and Tongtian Peak, and between Yingtian Peak and Tongtian Peak are also cliffs with a certain height. Although compared to the three peaks, the gap is not that high, but for Huihui. For a monk who can fly with a sword, it is very easy to cross these two gaps.
When the construction of the village was completed, Xiao Ding specially ordered people to build a village gate at the exit between Xiangtian Peak and Yingtian Peak, and a tall stone was erected next to the village gate. All the people in the village worked together to move the big stone to this location after finding it.
Then, Xiao Ding used his mace to draw three huge characters "Tian Yao Village" on the big stone. Then paint these three characters with cinnabar to make them appear red.
In order to paint these three characters, Xiao Ding went to the nearest market town and bought dozens of kilograms of cinnabar.
Here in Tianyao Mountain, the nearest market town is only about forty or fifty miles away.
If you look at it this way, Tianyaoshan is not that remote.
However, although it is close to villages and towns, it is still relatively far from the city. The city closest to Tianyao Mountain is called Qingxuan City, which is more than five hundred miles away.
This Qingxuan City belongs to a cultivation sect called Qingxuan Sect. Xiao Ding has never heard of this sect, and he has never been to Qingxuan City. He heard this information from the bandits in the village.
Although Xiaoding still calls these people in the village bandits in his heart. But in fact, since he took over this cottage, the bandits have never gone out to rob others.
These days, the food, vegetables, and meat eaten by the people in the village are all provided by Xiao Ding himself. At first, the Bagua Artifact Spirit helped him grow a lot of food, vegetables and other things. He also stored a large amount of meat at the beginning. Originally, he had prepared these things for the people of Liutai Mountain, but he did not expect that all the people of Liutai Mountain would be taken away by Taoist Douchong.
Therefore, all the materials he had prepared for Liutai Mountain were used here today.
The days that followed gradually became calmer. Seeing that winter has already entered, it is not possible to cultivate the land yet. Everyone had nothing to do, so Xiao Ding asked the master sister Cheng Yaowei to come and teach the people in the village how to practice.
In fact, these people more or less have some foundation in cultivation. Basically, those with the worst cultivation have now successfully induced themselves to enter the body and entered the threshold of cultivation.
Of course, what the senior sister teaches are also the most basic entry-level techniques.
In the months leading up to winter, I practiced two more batches of Regeneration Pills.
After studying, Bagua Weapon Spirit mastered the art of raising voodoos and successfully cultivated the fireflies caught by Xiao Ding into voodoos. Xiao Ding got the water cold snake from Luo Quanji, and he also took the snake gall.
At this point, he once again gathered together the five main ingredients for refining the regeneration pill: the heart of the firefly, the gall of the water-cooling snake, the needle of the wood bee, the feather of the golden feather, and the blood of the earth turtle.
Among them, he has leftovers of the feathers of the golden feathers and the blood of the earth turtle, which he has in his Qiankun pot. Together with the newly obtained heart of the firefly and the courage of the water-cooling snake, he has the materials. That's it.
In order to prevent accidents this time, he refined a total of two furnaces of regeneration pills. In addition to the spiritual plants of the four elements of gold, wood, water, and earth, he also added the medicinal ingredients given to him by Mr. Zhou from Bailian City. The Ice Cloud Flower and Poisonous King Mushroom in the ring were also added.
The reason why so many medicines are added is because Xiao Ding thought it would be best to reshape all the Tiangen this time, so that he would have less trouble in the future. The last time he refined the regeneration elixir, he used two elements of thunder and fire. Even when the elixir was insufficient, he was able to successfully reshape it.
This time, he refined two furnaces, with a total of twenty pills, and took them once every seven days, which was enough for him to take for one hundred and forty days. If he still failed, there was nothing he could do.
