Chapter 12 New Life (signed successfully, please read and collect)

“Brother Lin has worked hard in the mountains today. When my man comes back in a while, he will come home for dinner...”

At the door, Chen Lin took the five cents handed over by his aunt with a smile and asked smoothly:

 “Is Uncle Ping still in the mountains now?”

 Uncle Ping is my aunt’s husband.

His full name is Chen Kunping. He used to be a hunter. Recently, he found a way to go into the mountains to cut trees.

 Jin Zedong City specializes in craftsmanship, including many blacksmiths and refineries, which usually require a large amount of firewood.

 There is a lot of fine wood growing in Xiaojin Mountain, which is very suitable for use as firewood in furnaces and is favored by various forges.

From this, a specialized logging business gradually emerged, and teams were organized to cut down the wood and transport it outside the mountains.

This is hard work, and you have to cut and carry wood. A trip into the mountains can take at least a month.

"Yes, your Uncle Ping went into the mountains a few days ago. I guess he won't come back until New Year's Eve."

 Auntie's eyes showed sadness and anxiety.

“I finally managed to raise money to buy a missing child, but I don’t know if he can adapt to it…”

“Uncle Ping usually hunts in the mountains, so there must be no problem. Auntie, don’t worry.”

“Alas, you and I are both poor and not as promising as Asheng’s child Xiangyuan…

 Speaking of which, Ah Lin, can you see Xiangyuan in the mountains today? I saw him riding a tall horse and leading a convoy into the mountains with great swagger. It was so majestic! "

The aunt described how majestic and enviable the motorcade she saw entering the mountain was.

 Chen Lin suddenly remembered the scene he had just seen in the county town, that Chen Xiangyuan with a low eyebrow in the carriage.

 He nodded without any expression.

 “I saw it, it’s okay.”

“I wonder if my radish will be able to achieve such a high level of success in the future?”

“Everyone has his or her own way of living, so don’t envy it…”

  The aunt was chattering, full of yearning for the life in her imagination.

 It wasn’t until Xiaoluobo shouted in front of the stove that the soup was about to burn out that he quickly woke up.

 Chen Lin left at the right time and helped close the door.

 The afterglow of the winter sun.

There are more than a dozen families in the small village. Uncle Sheng followed Chen Xiangyuan to the county town to spend the winter. Some families endured the severe cold and went to live with relatives. Others were hunters who had built houses at various mountain passes and only came here for a short stay during the hunting season.

Humistically speaking, there are only a dozen or so people living in this scattered house.

 Except for his aunt's family, Chen Lin didn't know much about the others. Everyone had their own things to do.

 At this time, I have no intention of exchanging pleasantries.

He went back to the house and washed the hatchet, then cut open the flying-toothed deer, carefully sliced ​​out a plate full of thin meat, put a piece of it on the fire and roasted it.

After the smell of fat barbecue comes out, dip a layer of newly purchased soy sauce into your mouth and chew.

The meat of the flying-toothed deer is tough and has a special smoky flavor after being smeared with wood smoke. The more you eat it, the more you think about it, and you can't stop eating it.

 A plate of meat is eaten quickly.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　please

 Chen Lin used a method of digestion recorded in the "Yammu Jing". A burst of heat rose from the stomach, and the slices of meat he had just swallowed were quickly transformed into purer vitality, which dispersed to the limbs and bones.

 This method can quickly replenish the vitality in the body.

 After filling up a plate of meat, most of the looming weakness that had been lingering in my mind since practicing Taoism last night was immediately dissipated.

“This method can save a lot of time in maintaining the body, but it requires too much food.”

 “All the meat in the stomach turned into vitality, and I was hungry again immediately…”

If he hadn't shot a flying-toothed deer, he wouldn't have used this technique.

　　I continued to eat four plates of meat, and my appetite was surprisingly larger than before.

 The flying-toothed deer in front of me has shrunk by 30%.

Correspondingly, the vitality consumed by yesterday's practice has been completely replenished, and there is still a large surplus, which suddenly makes the body's confidence abundant.

 It is as if a big tree has taken root.

 It is no longer as easy to push down as it used to be.

Chen Lin took advantage of the opportunity to cut off part of the overflowing essence and refined ten more mana.

 The body is generally the same as the body in the world of immortality.

Has been able to draw thirty talisman patterns.

“It’s as easy as eating and drinking to catch up with another body.”

Chen Lin sighed for a while, the talent gap between the two sides was too big.

 Just taking a breath in this world is already the limit of another body.

“Let’s stop here today. The foundation is too weak. If you go too far, it’s not enough. If you make up for it too hard all at once, your body will explode like a balloon that has been inflated to its limit.”

“The remaining deer meat is enough for two days. I still have to go hunting in the mountains tomorrow. I have to keep an eye on the snake dens in winter. If I catch a big one, I can keep it for myself..."

"This body is too depleted. Even if there are exercises to help, it will take a while to nurse itself back to health. During this period, meat must not be cut off."

 Finish the endgame.

Chen Lin added firewood to the stove, lay on the bed and fell asleep soundly.

 Sleep extremely peacefully at night.

 After the charcoal fire went out, the magic power automatically started to drive him away from the cold.

 A well-fed and well-fed body is more stable and healthy.     Not like the previous two months.

At that time, when I slept, I felt like I was hanging by a broken hemp rope in the air and swaying in the wind. I often woke up in the middle of the night or woke up from the cold.

Now I feel down to earth and feel at ease.

 Have a good night’s sleep.

 It was already early morning when I woke up the next day.

 Chen Lin roasted the meat and ate it. After being frozen overnight, the taste remained basically unchanged.

 Then I drew the talisman as I did yesterday, put it in my arms and prepared to go up the mountain.

 Before leaving, he thought for a moment.

He also filled the small clay pot with a lid that he bought yesterday with the blood of the deer and put it together with a few pieces of bark into the new backpack.

 Now he can draw the talisman directly on the mountain.

 After a trip to the mountains, thirty mana can be used as sixty mana after being used up and then restored.

 Enter the mountains early in the morning.

Even my aunt didn’t get up.

Chen Lin first came to the hillside yesterday and used the first person-finding charm.

 The result was that the roe deer that escaped yesterday was not found.

 Instead, we found another snake nest.

 The snake's nest is looming, and the twinkling spiritual power threads are too conspicuous.

 Make a mark.

 Continuing to walk deeper into Xiaojin Mountain, we also found wild boar marks, one large and one small.

 The big wild boar among them seemed to be huge, and the mark it left behind was unusually scary.

Not only was Chen Lin not afraid, but he was greatly inspired and continued to explore deeper by following the traces.

 It’s a pity that my luck is still a bit bad.

　　Until noon, the two wild boars were not found. The trail ended in front of a non-freezing river. Judging from the situation, the two wild boars actually crossed the river in the middle of winter...

 Having no choice but to give up.

 I didn’t encounter any other big products after that.

But I caught three snowshoe rabbits coming out of their nests, so you can take them back and beat them as a tooth sacrifice.

 It’s time to return.

Chen Lin took the opportunity to remove the snake nests marked along the road.

 There are three nests in total, seven yellow flowers, five red chains, and five brown brocades, all of which are non-venomous snakes.

“There are indeed many winter snake nests in Xiaojin Mountain. In addition, you need to prepare a backpack with a lid.”

 Put the last "popsicle" behind the backpack.

Chen Lin couldn't help muttering.

Yesterday Xiaoluobo brought him a backpack with a lid, so he was not worried about putting the snake in it.

 But the new backpack he bought had no lid.

What if some snakes are still alive and squeeze in the basket to raise their body temperature, wake up, and start crawling in the basket...

Although they are all non-venomous snakes, thinking about this scene can still make people’s scalp numb.

  “Can’t you contribute a ‘woodcutter and snake’ story to the world?”

 Fortunately, we entered the mountain city of the county.

This scene didn’t happen either.

 Walked into Uncle Xiang’s shop.

 There are a few more hunters selling goods.

 Uncle Xiang always bids fairly, so he always has a group of old acquaintances selling to him.

 Chen Lin was discovered as soon as he entered the house today.

 “Alin is here again, what good things did you get today?”

Uncle Xiang came over with a smile.

Chen Lin took off the backpack and handed it over on his own initiative.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　!

 “Have you encountered a snake’s nest again?!”

Hearing this, the hunter next to him immediately cast his gaze.

“Is this the child left behind by Chen Bazhi?”

  “Yes.”

 “What a good luck!”

 Several hunters came over to chat.

 Chen Lin chatted for a while, and then he realized that the incident about his encounter with the snake nest yesterday had actually spread in the mountain city...
