Chapter 005: A mountain without forests is like a beautiful woman with a bald head

He walked around the mountains and forests with a stone axe, cutting out many units of "grass vines"

The disregard for life exhibited by the martial arts community has left Lu Sen with a very negative perception of them

The low mountain to the west is the territory of their Tianbo Yang residence, and on the left side of the mountain is their ancestral hall.

If one comes from a wealthy family, how could they possibly have such a look that is neither monk nor Daoist

Yang Jinhua was vigorously rubbing her peach blossom eyes

Effect: The wearer will not suffer any direct damage until the durability is completely consumed

He crafted several wooden pickaxes, threw one to Heizhu, and the two were ready to start digging

In just over two hours, Lu Sen's system backpack already contained more than 8,000 units of stone.

Yang Jinhua followed Xiao Tao's tugging and arrived at the third-floor window in the courtyard

Heikong was so excited to see Zhan Zhao speaking to him that he was rendered speechless, wearing an expression of pride and honor.

It is as if a delicate beauty has a side baldness, which is exceptionally unsightly and eye-catching

After switching to the lightweight wooden armor, Heizhu finally felt at ease and continued to excavate the stone blocks

Because when he was besieged, in the fleeting moment of light and shadow, he clearly saw that both of these two individuals were struck by poisoned darts, yet the two people before him appeared completely unharmed

Evening is approaching soon

"Then what are you apologizing for?" Lu Sen looked at the other person with some confusion

No, I actually have some grievances with those five individuals.

Just as he was preparing to return, he suddenly saw a red shadow flipping down from the sky, landing in front of the two.

If we leave, wouldn't it be in vain? Let's mine some stones before heading back. Lu Sen glanced at his equipment bar, noting the wooden armor with 95% durability, and then slowly asked, "Do these so-called heroes of the martial world care so little about others when they fight?"

Heikong is a diligent person, and he quickly began to wave his draft around.

The two individuals descended the mountain and headed straight for the northern part of the city

Then, Zhang Zhao turned around again, surveying the surrounding environment. With this survey, his brows furrowed even more.

It is both a form of etiquette and an expression of apology

"It's nothing." Lu Sen touched his brow.

He is merely collecting some stones to build a foundation, without any intention of undertaking a major project

As a catcher, he was very skilled at observation, which was a professional habit. The moment he made eye contact with Lu Sen, he noticed that something was off about this person

Effect: The wearer will not receive any direct damage until the durability of the wooden armor is completely consumed

Zhan Zhao smiled and cupped his fists towards Heizhu, saying: "It's just a matter of giving some face to friends in the martial world, there's no need to call me 'Sir'. Just call me Zhan Butou or Zhan Zhao from m.hetushu.com."

Zhan Zhao turned around and cupped his fists in salute towards Lu Sen's back.

The man in red among the six shouted loudly, and the light of his sword surged several inches, forcing the other five to retreat. He then jumped out of the encirclement and flew away into the distance

Lu Sen's originally calm expression turned slightly cold

Lu Sen and Hei Zhu both slightly tilted their bodies, and the center of their brows was simultaneously struck by a black light, which was then deflected to the side.

Zhang Zhao, the chief constable of Kaifeng Prefecture, is indeed a renowned and handsome hero

What is even more bizarre is that the other party has short hair... What is going on

Stones that have been soaked in water for an extended period tend to have a relatively loose texture and are generally not used as building materials

Hearing Lu Sen ask him in a very indifferent tone why he was attacked, Zhang Zhao increasingly felt that the other party's background was certainly not insignificant. He lowered his hands and replied: "The Five Rats of Xian Kong Island act both justly and unjustly, as they please. During the scuffle, I led them here, and upon seeing the two of you, they probably thought you were my ambush, which is why they acted. This matter is entirely my fault; if it weren't for me... friend, I owe you a personal favor. If you have any conditions or needs, feel free to mention them. As long as I can help, I will certainly assist; otherwise, I would feel guilty."

Six people were entangled in a fierce battle, and Tena leaped, jumping several zhang high.

"Well... wait a moment." Lu Sen originally intended to say it was unnecessary, but he suddenly remembered something and asked, "Since you are the chief of the Kaifeng Prefecture, could you assist me in obtaining a household registration for Dongjing City?"

Zhan Zhao's eyes flickered slightly, and in an instant, many thoughts flashed through his mind. He shook his head and said: "I apologize, but the magistrate of the Bao family strictly upholds the law and has very stringent requirements for us subordinates. In Bianjing, household registration requires at least a recommendation from a local worthy, followed by approval from the county office, and then verification by the Kaifeng Prefecture before one can be registered. I am merely a lowly constable and am powerless in this matter. My friend, do you have any other requests?"

Generally, there are not many people who come here

Yang Jinhua's youthful heart is filled with a deep sense of curiosity

He is wearing a bright red official uniform with a straight cut, topped with a black official hat, and two red tassels hanging down from the sides of his ears, resting on his shoulders

It does not matter to Lu Sen... Under the power of the golden finger, any stone can be refined into the best building block

However, at that moment, the sound of clanging metal suddenly echoed from a distance, quite dense in frequency

The compensation is quite substantial, enough to cover several years of expenses for an ordinary person. Therefore, impoverished families do not pay much attention to it; after all, they have many children and can afford to lose a few. The most important thing is that they cannot seek reason from those heroes. The voice of the Black Pillar was somewhat low, and then he touched his forehead: "Lang Jun, I was clearly struck in the forehead by the hero's dart just now, yet I am unharmed; it must be your celestial armor that is at work."

No need. Lu Sen walked past him and said: "Zhan Captain, we shall meet again."

Thus, he prepared two sets, one for Heizhu to wear and one for himself

Zhan Zhao stared at Lu Sen, feeling somewhat surprised in his heart

displaying a puzzled expression

Lu Sen directly donned the stone armor for himself, and then handed another set of stone armor to Hei Zhu

But for Lu Sen, it is enough

He crouched down, using his fingers to touch these grid holes, unable to help but mutter to himself: "All about ten inches, all the same size square grids, and they all seem to have been chiseled from stone. How is that possible? Moreover, I clearly saw him and his servant being hit by hidden weapons just now... Ha, now Han Lao Er is in trouble. That young man does not seem like someone who would smile and act as if nothing happened after being stepped on the face. Observing his manner of speaking and treating others, he seems to possess a bit of the charm of the Eighth Prince."

"Zhan Butou, I would like to ask, who were those five individuals just now, and why did they resort to using hidden weapons upon seeing the two of us?" Lu Sen inquired淡淡地.

Lu Sen put away his longbow approximately one hundred meters away from the tree

Moreover, the most important point is that the base durability of the stone pickaxe is 30, which is three times that of the wooden pickaxe

"Over there, over there." Xiao Tao pointed at the sky: "The entire city has seen it."

He took down the willow leaf dart, looked at it for a moment, and then tossed it aside

But within a few breaths, he made a苦脸: "My lord, this stone armor is so heavy, I feel very uncomfortable"

He is the dream man of many young ladies in the capital's inner chambers

The person approaching is a rather valiant young man, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, exuding a sense of righteousness that instantly evokes goodwill in others

This mountain remains evergreen throughout the four seasons However, a large yellow patch has now appeared on the right side of the mountain

He enthusiastically replaced his wooden armor with stone armor

He walked over to the pile of stones nearby, where the dark projectile that had just hit him was deflected to.

With the stone pickaxe, what originally required five swings to mine a stone block has been reduced to four swings

At that moment, the maid Xiaotao rushed over from the inner courtyard, found Yang Jinhua, and grabbed her hand, urgently leading her into the courtyard while exclaiming: "Young lady, something big has happened, something big has happened"

However, the sensation of being struck by a sharp object just now was as clear and penetrating as that of a *picture*.

The Second Hero of the Floating Island, Han Zhang the Earth Mole. Skilled in the use of poison darts and earth fire thunder

Upon seeing Lu Sen, he bent down, holding his sword and cupped his fist: "Friend, the incident earlier has implicated you, and fortunately, you were not harmed. I sincerely apologize for this matter."

The other five quickly caught up.

This will suffice. Lu Sen smiled and said: This is my requirement

What is the name of the person who shot me with a hidden weapon

This greatly saves time on assignments

On the way down the mountain, Hei Zhu was unusually fond of touching the wooden armor on his body

At the same time, the light of swords and the light of knives intertwined, forming bright and vivid afterimages.

As Lu Sen was in shock, six individuals had already flown above their heads

Lu Sen then crafted two wooden swords nearby, and as soon as Hei Zhu excavated the stones, he immediately produced two stone armors.

Effect: Basic ranged weapon, limited lethality, yet comes with built-in accuracy correction, making it a good assistant for novice hunters

Time flies swiftly

Zhan Zhao examined the nearby square-shaped pits again, still unable to fathom how Lu Sen and his servant could have excavated so many square-shaped pits in such a short time. He then rose and returned to the residence, intending to discuss this matter with the magistrate Bao.

The black pillar must also perish

After retracting the longbow, Lu Sen took out the cooked food from the system backpack and shared it with Heizhu. Then, he crafted a large number of stone picks. Next, the two of them planned to level the entire valley.

Gazing far and wide, Yang Jinhua followed Xiao Tao's指指 towards the west, and after a moment of daze, slightly parted her cherry-like lips

I estimate that should be enough

This item worn on him appears somewhat amusing, resembling a watermelon that has been cut in half at the top.

Although the Yang family does not mind others cutting down a few trees in their backyard, this matter challenges common sense, and she wants to understand what is going on

Zhan Zhao urgently said: "This certainly will not do, my friend, you may state other requests."

"Just know it, and don't let it out." Lu Sen suppressed the anger in his heart and said with a gentle demeanor: "Let's dig the stones."

One only needs to lay a foundation, requiring not many stones

Moreover, this young man, who is two or three points more handsome than the renowned Bai Yutang, conducts himself with composure and grace. Although it is evident that he possesses an inner pride and character, it does not make him seem unpleasant.

She could see clearly that a large section of the hillside at the macula had been flattened.

Two ringing sounds

Let us not speak of the suddenly appearing and then vanishing golden stone sword, which may be an illusion... He came here, in fact, to collect the bodies

The black pillar stumbled its way to Lu Sen, asking in a panic.

The protective capability is quite impressive

What is going on! Everything was fine before I went to sleep at noon? Could it be that the earth dragon turned over and caused a collapse there?

Lu Sen's right hand trembled, and in his hand appeared a long, light golden stone sword, which he had previously synthesized during his spare time

He then combined stones and wooden sticks to create a large number of stone cluster arrows

Effective range 180 meters, maximum lethality range within 90 meters. Lu Sen reported the test data of this longbow, then a faint cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "So, martial artists, huh? Able to fly and evade, right? You don't regard the lives of outsiders as lives, do you? As long as there is suspicion of being an enemy, you kill without hesitation, right... Don't let me find you, Ershu Han Zhang"

No injuries

Lu Sen sighed, noting that he had an equipment slot and there was no concept of weight limit, so he said: "Then you should put on the wooden armor."

more than one thousand

However, the defense is quite high. Just now, Lu Sen tried it by placing the wooden armor on the ground and smashing it with stones, and after chopping at it with a wooden axe for quite a while, its durability did not even drop to half.

What happened

The sound of jingling came from the six of them

Stop, do not harm the innocent

Lu Sen understood the other person's meaning, he put away the stone sword and smiled, saying: "You are a good person, how should I address you"

Although there are no large quarries, there is a rocky beach near the Yellow River in the northern part of the city

Stone Armor (LV0): Durability 500

After walking north along the city wall for about one hour, I finally arrived at the rocky beach mentioned by Heizhu.

Suddenly, two beams of black light descended

"It is only because I was besieged that I thought of escaping from this place, yet I did not expect there to be someone here." The man in the red official robe smiled helplessly.

A moment later, an arrow pierced through a tree trunk with a diameter of twenty centimeters

Yang Jinhua of the Tianbo Yang family was puzzled as she looked at the large tree stump in her backyard

Tall and slender, with an elegant and graceful appearance

My lord, we have encountered the gentlemen who are engaged in a duel. Shall we leave for now?

Perhaps? Losing money? Lu Sen's eyes narrowed slightly

The stones there are scattered and loose, with few large pieces, making it unsuitable for quarrying operations

A straight yellow vertical surface, combined with a large yellow flat area, forms a vast L-shaped giant platform

Alright

The Yang family pays their respects twice a year

After equipping the wooden armor in the equipment slot, one can choose to display only the 'clothing'; the wooden armor will be invisible to others. This is essentially what is referred to as the 'transmogrification' system

My lord, are you all right

Lu Sen still feels a bit scared now. If it weren't for his impulsive decision to wear wooden armor before the incident with the books, he would surely have died from that poisoned dart.

Are you the Southern Hero, Master Zhan?" Heihou suddenly exclaimed from the side

Then the wooden stick and the grass vine were combined to create a wooden longbow

Upon returning to the spring at the halfway point, Lu Sen's expression darkened

After searching for a while, I discovered a black willow leaf dart embedded half an inch into the stone, with green traces on the dart tip

Lu Sen placed the second stone armor into the system backpack, and then crafted a more convenient stone pickaxe using stones and wooden sticks

I remember there was a large tree in this place the day before yesterday. The young girl Yang Jinhua jumped onto the tree stump and stepped on it a couple of times, then squatted down to feel the stump: "Who on earth has such great power to cut down such a large tree without leaving any traces or alarming anyone? Moreover, the damaged entrance in the backyard can only accommodate one person, and it certainly cannot allow a large tree to pass through."

It is said that they do not pay much attention, they only hurt people, and perhaps afterwards they will come to compensate with some money

There are no large quarries near Bianjing City, and the vast majority of the stones used for building the city were transported from surrounding cities

Thus, the black pillar is encased in wooden armor, appearing somewhat peculiar, while Lu Sen, dressed in flowing garments, exudes a certain charm and elegance. Unfortunately, his short hair slightly detracts from his overall demeanor

Such behavior, he had only seen in a few renowned ministers within the court

Zhan Zhao was somewhat surprised: "Friend, you still do not have a household registration?"

Desolate and uninhabited

He quickly caught up with the black pillar

I am the chief constable of Kaifeng Prefecture, Zhan Zhao. The man displayed a rather cheerful smile

Wooden Longbow (LV0): Damage 9

The ground here is covered with square-shaped holes everywhere

A person from the mountains and fields, who has just descended from the mountain and entered the world not long ago

Soon, the sound of hammering grew closer, and at a rapid pace. Just as Lu Sen was filled with confusion, he suddenly saw six individuals leap out from the blind spot of his vision

Unlike Heizhu, Lu Sen has the 'skin' function

Moreover, in Lu Sen's eyes, its attributes are as follows

for example, one's immediate superior, the governor of the prefecture

"Who are those people that are in cahoots with you?" Lu Sen asked淡淡地, holding the stone sword.

Is this poisoned

Yang Jinhua has practiced martial arts since childhood, excelling in both archery and horsemanship, with exceptionally keen eyesight

After all, the waterways in Bianjing City are extensive and convenient, making water transportation costs relatively low and the transportation of stones easier

Wooden Armor (LV0): Durability 100

Precisely speaking, this should be the Yellow Mud Flat. The occasional flooding of the Yellow River inundates this area, carrying away a substantial amount of sand and gravel from the surface, leaving behind a small quantity of yellow mud, while the heavier stones remain, resulting in the formation of the rocky beach.
