Chapter 106: Changes in the Chessboard
"Master of the house."

Zhou Hu brought the captured beast back to the house, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Zhou Qingshan standing not far away with a smile on his face. He immediately put the beast down and called out to Zhou Qingshan loudly.

Xiaoxiao heard the voice and turned around, only to see Zhou Qingshan and Mo Yanqiu standing not far away.

Mo Yanqiu smiled, but his heart tightened and he felt his heartbeat quicken. He then lowered his head and quickly left with Wu Huichunfeng and Lava.

"Xiaoxiao, what's wrong?" Zhou Hu looked at Xiaoxiao's back in confusion.

"fine."

Zhou Qingshan stepped forward and looked Zhou Hu up and down, and found that he was not injured. He patted his shoulder and said, "Erhu, after dinner, I have a treasure for you."

Zhou Hu began to talk about his experiences when Zhou Qingshan was away. If he was lucky, he would hunt two or three exotic beasts a day, and if he was unlucky, he would only hunt one. He would make edible ones into smoked jerky.

Except for the organs and furs of exotic animals that can be used as medicine, the rest are buried in the spiritual veins and wasted.

That's the essence.

The two of them just chatted.

After a while, Uncle Zhao and Zhou Shiqi came back after settling the farmers, and the Zhou family started the banquet.

Because there were so many people, the outer courtyard lobby could not accommodate so many people, so a long row of wooden dining tables were temporarily built outside the courtyard.

The Thunder Knights and their Husky mounts had already been attracted by the aroma wafting in the air. After taking a bite impatiently, they began to wolf down the food. They were so greedy that they seemed to want to swallow even the ceramic bowl that held the food.

After the meal, I still felt unsatisfied.

However, the women in the family have limited physical strength, and the amount of food they prepare is simply not enough to fill their big stomachs.

Zhou Qingshan distributed extra exotic animal meat to each knight to ensure that they could fill their stomachs. The guards also ate in the same way, eating only 30% of the food to satisfy their appetite, and the rest was the exotic animal meat.

Everyone at the banquet was a big eater, and in a short while, all the delicious food on the table was cleared out.

The Thunder Knights were placed next to the newly built wooden house, and the Huskies left "Li" beside Zhou Qingshan, waiting for orders.

Zhou Hu, Zhou Shiqi, and Zhao Shu came to the inner courtyard.

At this time, the precious armor and weapons brought from the city lord's palace were placed on the open space on the ground.

However, the most eye-catching thing is the large shield of the lower-class Xuan soldiers. This large shield is about three meters high and nearly two meters wide. Its size is large enough for several soldiers to find shelter behind it. The shield is wide and the edges are sharp enough to be used as a weapon when necessary.

"Erhu, Seventeen prepared this for you. Come up and try it on to see if it fits you." Zhou Qingshan stretched out his hand and motioned for them to come forward and try it on.

Zhou Hu stepped forward, holding the Black Dragon Army's standard armor, compared it with the gauntlets he was wearing, and then asked:

"Master, where did you get the treasure coins? These two pieces are top-grade treasure armor and treasure weapons. They are probably worth more than a thousand treasure coins, right?"

"Exchanged for sweet potatoes..." Zhou Qingshan briefly recounted his experience in Black Cloud City to a few people.

After hearing this, Uncle Zhao said with emotion: "The Black Dragon Army has always been clear about rewards and punishments."

Zhou Hu took off his gauntlets and shoulder armor and put on new top-grade armor. He was wearing a pitch-black armor and a mighty helmet, and he looked very majestic.

Zhou Shiqi lifted the five thousand jin inferior Xuanbing shield, the size of which was a perfect match for him. However, with the weight of the black gold mace, it was still a bit difficult for him, and he needed more time to adapt.

During this period, apart from guarding the spiritual realm pass and cutting down and moving large trees, he spent the rest of his time practicing by swallowing spiritual fish and the meat of exotic beasts, and made remarkable progress.

Zhou Qingshan taught Zhou Shiqi a set of real skills of heavy weapons, including hammers, axes, etc., as well as the shield combat techniques attached to lower-grade Xuan soldiers.

"In the next few days, take a good rest and conserve your energy." Zhou Qingshan instructed, then he nodded and announced:

"The spiritual realm will expand in the future. We will fight side by side with the Thunder Knights to wipe out the strange beasts in the Streamside Ridge."

Zhou Hu put forward his own opinion: "Master, the terrain of Xipanling is dangerous. I think it is not advisable to send too many people."

Zhou Qingshan smiled mysteriously and responded: "When the time comes, you will naturally understand."

He took Zhou Hu and the Thunder Knight out with him not to hunt exotic beasts, but to transport them.

Zhou Hu glanced at the gourd mark on Zhou Qingshan’s forehead and nodded seriously.

Zhou Qingshan continued, "By the way, there are two black dragon horses outside the yard. I have reserved one for you. Remember to take good care of it and use this opportunity to hone your riding skills."

The Lingjing Pass is about five miles away from the Zhou family, which is neither too far nor too close.

But with a mount carrying an exotic beast, traveling would be much easier.

When Zhou Hu heard this, his eyes sparkled with excitement, and he said excitedly: "Thank you, Patriarch."

It is the three-piece set that every warrior dreams of: armor, precious weapons, and mounts. Not to mention the top-notch Black Dragon BMW.

Zhou Qingshan thought for a moment, then turned to Uncle Zhao and said, "Uncle Zhao, please recruit a farmer to serve as a groom to take care of these two black dragon horses."

Uncle Zhao nodded in agreement, but then raised his concerns:

"Master, there are so many people in the territory, more than a thousand of them, that I can't handle them alone. I suggest recruiting three to five more stewards to assist in management."

Zhou Qingshan agreed: "Uncle Zhao, you can decide this matter yourself."

"For those farmers who don't have land, ask them to help repair their houses first, and don't let them starve."

After Zhou Qingshan distributed the precious armor and weapons, he discussed some matters and prepared to go back to rest. At this time, Zhou Qingshan called Zhou Shiqi and asked him to drag out all the exotic beast materials and captured weapons stored in the inner courtyard and give them to Layan who lived next door.

As for the weapons shop, it has not been built yet. The plan is to set it up under the city wall of the original spiritual realm pass.

late at night.

Zhou Qingshan took his wife into the Yunding chessboard to rest. After practicing for a while, they fell asleep in each other's arms.

Zhou Qingshan had a dream.

In the dream, there was a boy, wearing a Taoist robe, smiling every day, and practicing with his master on the top of a fairyland mountain. In his spare time, he would sit and watch the rolling sea of ​​clouds, the countless buildings in the sky, and the flowing Milky Way.

When bored, bully the divine beasts.

The divine beasts were so angry that they were helpless, and they couldn't defeat the boy, so they avoided him every day as if he were the god of plague.

When the Master was talking to his good friend, the naughty boy secretly put drugs in the tea, making the Master look ugly.

This action often made the master very angry, and he would chase the children all over the mountain and beat them up.

In this way, after countless years, the child grew into a teenager and his personality became much more restrained.

One day, the master passed away, and thousands of buildings turned into ruins and fell into the world.

The young man was terrified, and used his Dao Fruit to run away, and kept running away, running to the ends of the earth, running to the end of the world...

At this moment, in the world of Yunding chessboard, the sky and the earth changed color.

Everything outside the floating island is changing, from day to night, everything is changing rapidly. The fairyland in the distance disappears, the ruins of the cloud top chessboard not far away are decaying, and the clouds seem to speed up trillions of times and finally turn into a ray of light.

The next moment, the floating island appeared in a group of islands full of ruins. Blood was still flowing everywhere. A huge eye looked over and stretched out a huge hand to grab the cloud top chessboard.

The picture speeds up again.

The Cloud Top chessboard came to the sea of ​​stars in the universe, the sun and the moon were dim, and the ruins of the planets were quietly suspended.

There was a large, ancient ship with a large flag, sailing towards them. Someone on the ship saw something strange on the chessboard. There was a wooden house on it, and spiritual seeds were planted in the fields. It seemed that there were still living creatures. The person immediately shouted:

"What is that? It must be a treasure left over from the last era. Come on, set sail."

Before the man could drive the big ship over.

The scene changed, and the chessboard on top of the cloud disappeared again, and finally came to an uninhabited cloud layer, with no chessboard ruins around.

"Boom!"

At this moment, there was a sudden flash of lightning and thunder in the sky, silver snakes danced wildly, and heavy rain poured down.

Zhou Qingshan and Mo Yanqiu suddenly opened their eyes, quickly put on their clothes, and opened the door of the wooden house.

Zhou Qingshan was instantly drenched by the rain. The wind was blowing hard and the trees were swaying, but he ignored it all. He used his magical powers and looked up into the distant clouds.

"The sky of the Yunding chessboard world would actually change?!!" His eyes shone with divine light and he looked around the sky. Through the layers of heavy rain, he did not see the marked chessboard ruins, nor could he find the fairyland pavilion.

Zhou Qingshan's heart sank, and he immediately realized that the Yunding chessboard was no longer in its original position.

"Husband! Look over here!" Mo Yanqiu pointed to the red jade fruit tree next to her, and the spiritual field planted with 'jade spirit seeds', which were covered with crystal clear and plump fruits.

Zhou Qingshan glanced around and saw thirty-two red jade fruits and thirty jade spirit seeds, totaling six thousand three hundred.

Before going to bed, Zhou Qingshan took care of the spirit seeds. These jasper spirit seeds had just sprouted, and the red jade fruit trees had just bloomed. Both would take at least five months to mature.

"He matured overnight?!"

Zhou Qingshan was suddenly startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to hold Mo Yanqiu's hand. With a thought, he quit the Yunding chessboard.

The two returned to the main house.

Zhou Qingshan breathed a sigh of relief and entered the Yunding chessboard again, picking all the red jade fruits and jade spirit seeds in the heavy rain.

He then grabbed the little firebird that was still sleeping on the gourd vine.

With a thought, he returned to the main house again.

He first woke up Xiaoxiao who was sleeping in the main house, and then went to inform Gao Feixue in the side room. Looking at the two people who were soaked, Zhou Qingshan explained what happened on the Yunding chessboard.

Several people stepped forward to help, took out pottery jars and pottery jars, and put away the red jade fruits and jade spirit seeds.

Xiaoxiao lit the fire again and brought clean clothes for the two of them to change.

Zhou Qingshan did not change, but entered the Yunding chessboard again. At this time, the green lake water was rolling under the strong wind.

Zhou Qingshan stepped forward and pulled out the net cage from the lake, which contained eleven spirit fish. He then looked around, pulled out the fishing rod stuck in the ground, and then left the Yunding chessboard.

"Feixue, take the spirit fish to the large pottery jar in the backyard and keep it there first."

Gao Feixue took the net cage containing eleven spirit fish and quickly went to the backyard. Xiao Xiao came forward with a clean towel to wipe Zhou Qingshan's body, and helped him change into clean clothes.

　The continent in the sea of ​​fog is the spiritual realm, and outside the spiritual realm is the virtual sea of ​​the universe.
