Chapter 369 Doubt
When Wu Wenkang and Fang Qiyu arrived, Lu Cheng had already walked away.:.../Shi Tianyun Scorpion Peak is so big that no one knows the location of Lu Cheng. Although there are Haji dogs, when they follow the smell left by Lu Cheng, they completely lose Lu Cheng's trace.
"Precautions should be taken seriously. Once Lu Cheng is found, kill him without mercy!" Wu Wenkang looked at the slowly flowing stream and said expressionlessly. Although Lu Cheng was not as strong as him, he was like a loach and could not catch him at all.
"Brother Wu, it seems that relying on our strength alone is not enough to capture Lu Cheng." Fang Qiyu said that Lu Cheng must have outstanding advantages in being able to sneak into Shitianyun Scorpion Peak quietly.
"Wait for a while and let the Haji dog be familiar with the smell of everyone." Wu Wenkang said that this is not a solution now. The Haji dog can distinguish millions of odors, while there are only tens of thousands of people on the Shitianyun Scorpion Peak, which is nothing to the Haji dog.
It should be said that Wu Wenkang's method is also quite good. Although every Haji dog will be very tired, it can accurately discover Lu Cheng. But Wu Wenkang didn't know that Lu Cheng didn't go far at all, or that he was not more than two thousand feet away from Wu Wenkang. Such a distance has exceeded the olfactory distance of Haji dog, but it can let Lu Cheng know everything about Wu Wenkang.
It is difficult for Lu Cheng to replace a guardian, but it is really simple if he wants to replace a labor service. Moreover, Lu Cheng replaced it with the upper class. Although these people dig out spirit stones for the aristocratic families, their status is very low. Although each aristocratic family has a share of the pie at Shitianyun Scorpion Peak, the internal spirit stones are recognized as the ones who are digging. Therefore, in order to dig as much as possible, these labor service is required to work as much as possible.
At the beginning, the aristocratic families used high rewards to dig spirit stones, but later, they felt that drawing a cake would make people willingly dig spirit stones for them. If they were ordinary workers, they would promise that after working in Shitianyun Scorpion Peak for ten years, they would make them warriors. If they were low-level warriors, they would make them promoted every few years.
But all of this is the flowers and moon in the water in the mirror. After working on Shitian Yunsili Peak for a few years, you will be kicked away by a noble family. Some people can still live alone, and a considerable number of people will even die at Shitian Yunsili Peak. Of course, many people don’t know about these things, at least they don’t know about the labor service they are working now.
After Lu Cheng replaced a labor service, he worked as usual every day. But even so, it did not affect his absorption of spirit stones. Especially at night, Lu Cheng never sleeps. He is like a shriveled sponge, absorbing spiritual power at all times.
The upper class can go down the mountain to rest every ten days, and Lu Cheng can take advantage of this day to have a good meal at the foot of the mountain and have a good sleep. Of course, in order to avoid doubt, Lu Cheng changed his identity when he was at the foot of the mountain. There are too many faces in his mind now. If he changes to a popular face, most people will only feel familiar, but they can't remember who it will be.
"Brother Wu, the quality of the spirit stones in the entire Shitianyun Scorpion Peak has dropped sharply recently. There are rumors that it was caused by Lu Cheng. We have to give others an explanation." Fang Qiyu found Wu Yingpu. The quality of the spirit stones in the lower and middle layers has dropped very significantly. In the past, each aristocratic family would produce at least several or even dozens of spirit stones. But now, the lucky aristocratic family can produce one or two spiritual stones occasionally, and most of the aristocratic families have gained nothing.
"The spirit stone is on the mountain, how can Lu Cheng make a fool?" Wu Yingpu felt that Fang Qiyu was simply sensational. Even if Lu Cheng could make a fool, how could he be? No matter what, Lu Cheng is just an acquired warrior. Even if he is in the pile of spirit stones, he can only look at the spirit stones.
"When Lu Cheng was in Changning Water City, he only had the spirit stones. Will he absorb the spiritual power of the spirit stone?" Fang Qiyu suddenly said that although he had never heard of the acquired martial artists absorbing spiritual power, Lu Cheng's cultivation has exceeded the peak of the tenth level of acquired internal strength, which is also a fact. Since things that surpass the tenth level of internal strength can happen to Lu Cheng, it is not impossible for him to absorb spiritual power.
"Okay, even if Lu Cheng can absorb spiritual power, then I'll ask you, how many pieces of medium-grade spiritual power can we two absorb in a month now?" Wu Yingpu asked.
"It can be up to 300 yuan, and after absorbing it, you have to practice it with all your strength in the second month." Fang Qiyu pondered, yes, Wu Wenkang was right. As a second-level warrior in the innate level, he can absorb up to 300 medium-grade spirit stones every month. No matter how strong Lu Cheng is, he cannot absorb thousands or even tens of thousands of spirit stones, right? Although Lu Cheng is very strong, he has fought with Lu Cheng, which is still very different from the innate warrior.
For innate warriors, spirit stones are just auxiliary materials. If you really want to increase your cultivation, you have to absorb the essence between heaven and earth. After all, the world contains all things, and only by absorbing the essence from heaven and earth can you increase your true energy.
"Since we can only absorb 300 medium-grade spirit stones a month, can we say that Lu Cheng is a ghost?" Wu Yingpu asked back.
"How should I explain it to them?" Fang Qiyu asked.
"The quality of the spirit stone has declined, and it has nothing to do with Lu Cheng. It's strange, but now it's actually blamed Lu Cheng. By the way, is there any news about Lu Cheng?" Wu Yingpu asked. It has been almost half a month since Lu Cheng fought with Fang Qiyu.
"But the upper-level spirit stone mining volume has also dropped very significantly." Fang Qiyu still couldn't figure it out. It would be fine if the mining volume and quality of the lower and middle-level layers were only reduced, but the mining volume of the upper-level layers is also surprisingly low. As far as he knows, a qualified spirit stone has not been collected for three consecutive days.
"We are just guardians, and the matter of mining spirit stones has nothing to do with us. The main task now is to capture Lu Cheng." Wu Yingpu said that the matter of Lu Cheng at Shitianyun Scorpion Peak has slowly spread. The Wu family will soon know about this matter. He hopes to capture Lu Cheng before the head of the family asks about it.
"I suspect that Lu Cheng has not left and is still at Shitianyun Scorpion Peak!" Fang Qiyu suddenly said that only warriors with firm will and indomitable will be promoted to high-level warriors. This is like being a human being, successful people will always be those who work hard. If Lu Cheng is interested in spirit stones, he will never leave just because he is discovered.
"Haji Dogs can't lie, right?" Wu Yingpu said that now everyone has to go in and out of Shitianyun Scorpion Peak to go through Haji Dog's inspection. Moreover, all personnel must verify their identity. With such defense, Lu Cheng has no chance to go to Shitianyun Scorpion Peak again. (To be continued.)
