Chapter 1762 Prepare early
Some people say that a sign of getting older is not staying up late.

There is some truth in that.

When Li Chengxi was in school, playing games all night was commonplace. There was even a night when a miracle happened with a pen.

But after he graduated from college and returned home to open a convenience store, staying up late basically did not exist anymore. He couldn’t make it until the early morning without Red Bull.

Over time, this became a habit. Even though Li Chengxi is now a god, theoretically he can stay awake forever without any problems, but he still habitually feels sleepy at a certain time.

After preparing delicious food for Yang Yiyi and the others, Li Chengxi took a shower and went to bed. When he opened his eyes in the morning, it was already bright.

I opened my eyes and looked at my phone first. There was a text message from Gan Xiaoyan in the middle of the night. Maybe she was on night shift again.

It wasn’t a big deal. It was just that the plan to have a group of gods come to Li Chengxi’s house to celebrate the New Year in a few days had been approved, and Li Chengxi was just informed.

Then he washed up, lay down in the space capsule with a piece of bread in his mouth and turned on the computer.

The first thing I saw was a trailer loading weapons boxes into the Swan’s armory. That was what Li Chengxi asked Fang Lanyin to help apply for yesterday.

Since light weapons were not used much, the inventory was almost not consumed. When Fang Lanyin’s application was submitted, the logistics department approved it very quickly, probably without even looking at the quantity.

These weapons and ammunition are enough to arm a team of 20 to 30 people, not counting machine guns and other squad weapons and ammunition.

After saying hello to Fang Lanyin, Zora worked all night to prepare the holy water.

Four full jars.

Each silver pitcher was almost the size of a spittoon, and was filled with a white liquid as sticky as latex. This much holy water was barely enough for a bath, but it was perfectly sufficient for washing one’s face.

He reached out and took out all the holy water jars one by one. With these things in hand, Yang Yiyi and the others would not have to worry about being followed by ghosts when they left Qinglan Valley.

Everything was ready, and Li Chengxi then looked towards Yang Yiyi.

Several people were taking turns to keep watch, and it was still dark.

Yang Yiyi got up early and was just awake.

Then he told Li Chengxi what happened last night.

“What? You said the land god came yesterday? And took you to pick lotus pods?”

Li Chengxi didn’t expect that the land god would come again. After all, he was dying, and he thought it was gone.

Yang Yiyi explained the whole story, then placed the two lotus pods on the ground for Li Chengxi to see.

Maybe it was because the noise was a little loud, or maybe no one could sleep well in such an environment. After Yang Yiyi finished explaining, Qin Yan and Ning Xianer also came out of the tent.

“This golden lotus seed is a good thing.”

Yugui floated in the air, pointed at the lotus pod that was once golden but is now green, and said:

“It is a variant of the mist lotus seed. Eating it can make you lighter and prolong your life. It is a natural elixir.”

There are twenty or thirty holes on this lotus pod, but only seven have produced lotus seeds. The Jade Fox ate one yesterday, and now there are six left.

Just give one to each person. This thing has no harm in eating it.

There was one left after each of the five people had one. Li Chengxi said:

“Take the remaining one back to Wu Shaoyi. It should be good for her legs.” This kind of thing is a spiritual herb cultivated by cultivators. The place where the Jade Fox took Yang Yiyi and the others yesterday should be the medicinal field left by Qingshan Sanren.

There should be more good things in there, but Li Chengxi was not there at the time, so everyone had no way to identify them. It might not be possible to go there again, because only the jade fox could open the passage.

Yesterday, everyone saw the Jade Fox eating a lotus seed, but no one dared to eat it. Only after hearing Li Chengxi’s explanation did everyone dare to eat it.

Qin Yan picked up the lotus pod and tried to pick out the lotus seeds, but found that the lotus pod was as hard as steel and she couldn’t pick them out no matter what.

It would be the same if it was handed over to Ning Xianer. With her strength, even real steel would be crushed, but it would remain motionless.

The lotus seeds could only be picked out when they were handed to Yang Yiyi. Seeing how hard they were trying, Yang Yiyi thought it would be very difficult, but she used too much force and almost crushed the lotus pod.

“It’s probably a problem with the Mountain Moving Skill. Didn’t the Jade Fox look at Yiyi specifically yesterday? I guess it was to determine whether she had learned the Mountain Moving Skill. Without this skill, ordinary people can’t take out the lotus seeds.”

Perhaps, the land god came to see if anyone has learned the method of moving mountains. The stems of the fog lotus seeds look fragile, but they are actually invulnerable to swords and guns, and are immune to water and fire. If you don’t have some special methods, you can’t pick them.

Everyone listened to Li Chengxi’s explanation, and then swallowed the lotus seeds they were given.

The lotus seeds immediately turn into sweet juice when they enter the mouth and go down the throat. It feels like eating mint candy, and a cool feeling comes from the mouth to the throat.

But as for the effect…

not so obvious.

“It will take time for it to manifest. When you have time, just practice hard to refine the medicinal power.”

Li Chengxi said another sentence, and then he looked at the red lotus pod.

“This… It’s a good thing you didn’t touch it yesterday, this thing would have exploded.”

The red lotus pod is also a variant of the mist lotus seed, but the variant is a bit larger.

Generally, fog lotus seeds are rich in water vapor and are a great tonic for monks who practice water cultivation.

But for some unknown reason, this red mist lotus seed actually contained a large amount of fire energy.

In short, this thing is the bomb.

If it is violently bumped or shaken, it will be triggered immediately and cause an explosion.

The item description does not mention how powerful the explosion is, but since Yang Yiyi said that the land god was particularly cautious yesterday, the power of the explosion must be quite powerful.

“Leave this thing here for now, in case you accidentally detonate it. But since the land god lets you take it, it must be useful for something.”

The land god has absolute control over the land that gave birth to him. He knows exactly how many people are in Erlang Mountain now and where they are.

Perhaps because there were few people on Yang Yiyi’s side, he wanted Yang Yiyi to have something to protect herself, so he took the red lotus pod away with him.

This is just like how Li Chengxi would specially prepare a bunch of light weapons. There are many people on the bandit side. Although Yang Yiyi is stubborn and not afraid of charging forward, it is still troublesome after all. It is better to just pull the trigger and fire.

“Anyway, the land god should have no ill intentions. Now that we are all up, let’s wash up, get ready, have some breakfast, and then we’ll go find the last treasure.”

The ‘Three Qings’ left by Qingshan Sanren are now only missing a pair of Qingyang Whips. I feel that this is very related to what Eagle Father said. There are still the golden hairpin and the iron knife that have not been used. I guess they will be used for this.

This also means that what Shen Qingshuang is looking for is most likely the pair of Qingyang Whips. If she goes to get this treasure, something might happen, so it is better to be prepared early.
