Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World-Chapter 2130: Entering the Mountain
After having a meal at the restaurant, Zhao Hai already came to know about the other cultivators inside. Although there was no need for Zhao Hai to make friends with these people given his status, Zhao Hai still did it. These rogue cultivators might not be strong, it was still better to make a friend than an enemy.
Last time, Zhao Hai befriended Wang Hu without expecting something in return. But in the end, Wang Hu did Zhao Hai a great favor. Not only did Wang Hu cause Zhao Hai to discover the changes in the underground labyrinth, the matter also allowed the Tyrant Blade Sect to eliminate so many ghost cultivators. This increased Zhao Hai’s Undead Army and in turn increased his strength. By this point, Zhao Hai has the strength to protect himself to a certain degree.
After eating, Zhao Hai immediately went to look for a house to settle in. And from then on, Zhao Hai became a citizen of the nameless town. He also met people and made more friends.
What Zhao Hai said before about finding the junior of a Gang Leader was naturally all fake. Zhao Hai knew very well that if Shopkeeper Chen could get the map and some information, other people would also have the same thing. There would be quite a lot of people who would come to find the seal.
Moreover, Zhao Hai believed that other people would also come into action. They might even come to the same conclusion as Zhao Hai and come to the nameless town to ask for information.
Although Zhao Hai’s words wouldn’t completely dispel any suspicions, it would at least cause some people to have doubts. What Zhao Hai said was too detailed that other people might think that it was true.
Even if they thought that his words were fake, it wouldn’t matter. Zhao Hai wasn’t afraid of them. Moreover, Zhao Hai made a good impression on the people of the nameless town. They would no doubt be partial towards him. If people came to ask for Zhao Hai’s information, the people in the town would definitely inform him.
The first would always be favored. This sentence worked no matter where one was. At least it was very useful for the people in the nameless town. Zhao Hai played his move, now it was the turn of the other people.
While staying in the town for two days, Zhao Hai walked around and inquired about a red-clothed junior carrying a 1.2 meter long sword. Naturally, he wouldn’t obtain any information. Such a person only existed in Zhao Hai’s story.
By this point, almost everyone in the town knows about Zhao Hai. Every time he ate at the restaurant, he would ask people to drink. Although he didn’t spend a lot, it made the rogue cultivators feel good.
Five days later, Zhao Hai finally left the nameless town and entered the Mountain of Demon Beasts. Naturally, he didn’t do nothing in the past five days. He spread a lot of silver dust around the mountain.
Zhao Hai wouldn’t have dared to use the silver dust in other places. After all, cultivators could easily discover the dust coming from liquid silver.
However, liquid silver could be used freely in the Mountain of Demon Beasts. Although demon beasts were very powerful, their wisdom was limited. Even if they discovered liquid silver, they wouldn’t make something out of it. Because of this, Zhao Hai didn’t hesitate to use liquid silver.
Now, the periphery of the Mountain of Demon Beasts has been mapped by the Space. It was because of this that Zhao Hai decided to set off. He would go around the periphery of the mountain while liquid silver penetrated deeper into the mountain.
The nameless town was around a hundred meters away from the mountain. Such a distance was nothing to a cultivator. It was a distance that a cultivator could traverse in a single step. It was also because of this distance that the nameless town was regularly attacked by the demon beasts.
Zhao Hai didn’t ride a horse when he went to the Mountain of Demon Beasts. He left his horse in the nameless town and gave Brother Two a few spirit stones to take care of them.
When Brother Two saw that Zhao Hai was about to leave the town, he gave him a few words. He even said that Zhao Hai was finally leaving the town. The two had been in contact for many days, so jokes like these were nothing to them.
As Zhao Hai walked towards the mountain, he met a lot of cultivators along the way. These cultivators were residents of the nameless town. They were going to the mountain to hunt and kill demon beasts.
Zhao Hai knew a few of these cultivators. Seeing Zhao Hai heading towards the mountain, these cultivators cracked some jokes. Zhao Hai also chatted with them. Since all of them were heading towards the mountain, they could go together.
After an hour, they finally arrived at the periphery of the mountain. Looking at the Mountain of Demon Beasts, Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Everyone, I’m taking my leave here. If you meet other people, please help me ask them if they have seen a red-clothed youngster with a four chi (1.2 meters) sword.”
Everyone complied with a smile. It was just a matter of a few words. Zhao Hai treated them to drinks in the past few days. This small task was the least they could do to reciprocate.
Zhao Hai cupped his fist to everyone before turning around and leaving. This was still the periphery of the mountain. After looking at the map in the Space, he picked a direction and moved forward.
Before long, Zhao Hai reached the official boundary of the Mountain of Demon Beasts. The map in the Space has regions marked on it. These were regions that Zhao Hai should avoid because of powerful demon beasts. Zhao Hai has no plans of getting in contact with them either. Zhao Hai knew very well that he shouldn’t provoke any demon beasts in the mountain. Otherwise, he would attract more demon beasts to him.
Even cultivators who often come to the Mountain of Demon Beasts to hunt wouldn’t stay for too long. They would usually find teammates to hunt beasts quickly and then retreat. If they can’t kill the beast after a long time, they would rather retreat than push on.
Zhao Hai moved forward carefully. He didn’t walk in a straight line but instead used convoluted routes. He went in circles throughout the mountain.
All of a sudden, Zhao Hai stopped. This was because the Space’s map showed a demon beast running towards him. He has no place to hide. If he wanted to hide, he could only do it inside the Space. And if he went in another direction, he would also encounter demon beasts.
Zhao Hai knew that he had no place to hide. He moved his body and slowly sank underground. Not long after Zhao Hai sank to the ground, a rustling sound was heard before a demon beast in the form of a rabbit appeared. The rabbit demon beasts looked no different from an ordinary beast. It was advancing cautiously, it stopped with every step and looked around vigilantly. It must be said, for Zhao Hai’s first encounter with a demon beast, it looked nothing like the wild demon beasts that he heard about.
Just as the rabbit demon beast walked to the place Zhao Hai sank into, it stopped and sniffed around before retreating.
At this moment, the rabbit demon beast suddenly felt a blade point coming out of the ground. The blade was very fast, it appeared from the ground in a blink of an eye.
Zhao Hai’s blade was steady, but he still couldn’t take the life of a rabbit demon beast. This meant that the rabbit demon beast was indeed the real deal.
The rabbit’s body flashed away from Zhao Hai’s blade and then suddenly went to the side. Although Zhao Hai’s blade left a gash on its body, it didn’t cause any fatal damage.
Zhao Hai’s blade seems to be unaffected by the land as it slashed horizontally, slashing directly at the neck of the rabbit demon beast. The head of the rabbit demon beast was cut off in one fell swoop. The rabbit demon beast’s body twitched twice before it stopped moving.
Zhao Hai received the corpse of the rabbit demon beast before emerging from the ground. However, his expression wasn’t attractive. This was because he was certain that his ambush would definitely kill the rabbit demon beasts. However, the rabbit demon beast actually dodged his first attack. Zhao Hai didn’t expect this to happen.
But Zhao Hai couldn’t just sigh for a long time. He immediately left the area while using wind element magic to eliminate any smells around him.
Now, Zhao Hai understood what the demon beast instinct really was. The rabbit demon beast certainly had this instinct. If it weren’t for its instincts, it wouldn’t have been able to avoid Zhao Hai’s blade.
Sure enough, not long after Zhao Hai left, the demon beasts appeared at the location of the battle. Although demon beasts didn’t possess spiritual force, their abnormal instincts made up for it. Their instincts pushed their body’s functions to a very high level. Naturally, this included the demon beasts’ sense of smell. Their noses were too powerful. Although Zhao Hai has no smell, the rabbit demon beast was still able to sniff him out. This allowed the rabbit to dodge Zhao Hai’s ambush.
Zhao Hai also saw the demon beasts through the Space’s map. He became more careful, trying not to attract the attention of more demon beasts. At the same time, he pushed liquid silver to venture deeper into the mountain. Only after the mountain has been mapped could Zhao Hai find the seal.
The morning passed without Zhao Hai knowing. However, Zhao Hai has yet to gain any progress in his hunt. But this didn’t worry Zhao Hai. He knows that he has capabilities that other people didn’t have.
Zhao Hai didn’t stop to rest at noon. He continued to walk around the mountain without provoking other demon beasts.
Around 1:00pm, Zhao Hai suddenly stopped. He discovered a situation in front of him. From the Space’s map, he saw several cultivators moving forward. Zhao Hai immediately stopped; he was wondering if he should meet these cultivators.
Zooming in closer, Zhao Hai found one person he knew from the nameless town. He didn’t know the others and hadn’t seen them before. This fact caused Zhao Hai to be surprised. In the end, he decided to meet with them.
After moving forward for about ten minutes, Zhao Hai heard a rustling sound. He knows that the opposite party has come. However, he pretended to be unaware. He pulled his blade out and showed a look of alertness.
The other party also discovered Zhao Hai and the rustling sound vanished. Zhao Hai walked forward slowly as the other party was also approaching him. After turning around a couple of huge trees, both sides saw each other. Then a smile appeared on his face. Zhao Hai put his weapon away and then cupped his fist towards the cultivator he knew, “Brother Sun, it’s you. I thought I encountered a demon beast again.”
Cultivator Sun heard Zhao Hai and couldn’t help but laugh, “So it’s you. Kid, how did you get here? Did you get some harvests?”
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “Even after working hard, I only managed to kill a rabbit. Other than that, I have nothing.”
Hearing Zhao Hai, Cultivator Sun laughed, “That’s already good. At least you have a rabbit to eat in the evening. Rabbit skin is also worth a couple of stones. The meat can be cooked into a stew by Brother Two. How about it? Do you want to go to Brother Two’s place and eat your rabbit?”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Sure, we can have some drinks at Brother Two’s place. But Brother Sun, I’ll have to ask you a favor. If you meet other cultivators, help me inquire. Right, if everyone comes over tonight, this rabbit wouldn’t be enough.”
Cultivator Sun smiled and said, “Don’t worry about it. You treated us to drinks for multiple nights. I can take out some of the meat I hunted. I’m sure you haven’t eaten such meat before.”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Then it’s settled. I’ll drink together with everyone tonight. I’ll leave first. I want to walk around a few more times before returning.” Cultivator Sun nodded and then cupped his fist towards Zhao Hai.
After Zhao Hai left, Cultivator Sun’s companion looked at him and asked, “Old Sun, who is that? I hadn’t seen him before. Is he a new resident in the town? You seem to know him very well.”
Cultivator Sun smiled and said, “His name is Zhao Ming. He came from Roaring Flames City. He’s here to find someone. A junior of his Gang Leader went missing in the mountain. Since he’s on an official business, the gang gave him money to spend. He’s been treating us to drinks every day. That’s why I know him.”
