Yan Mo took over the Qiyu village.
What better way to make trouble for the Bone Sculpting People and set them on fire in their backyard than to set up another offensive regime within his family?
There are so many intelligent creatures coexisting in the east, so the west has to have the coexistence, right?
Yan Mo didn't ask the Qiyu village witch to hand over the rights to the village head and other people. He just handed over the 500 people hiding in the underground of the Qiyu village to Yuan Zhan.
This man is very clear about his position. He can be a spiritual leader, a mascot, and a deterrent, but he is really not good at leading the army and political power. The Qiyu village people are given to the leader, who will make the village live better at best, but to Yuan people is the kind of man who can develop a country with 500 people as the starting point.
And the previous Jiu Yuan facts have proved that Yuan Zhan does have this ability.
[1] Jiu Yuan started with 61 Awu Tribe then added the Yuan Ji and then the dwarfs then the expanded lands
After Yan Mo solved the problem of the Qiyu village, he divided his mind into two parts and began to study how to make Yuan Zhan absorb the local yuan-crystal.
But it didn't take him long. He first found out the difference between him, Jiu Feng and Yuan Zhan. Why can he and Jiu Feng absorb and Yuan Zhan can't?
What's the biggest difference between them and Yuan Zhan?
At first, he thought it was soul power, not that Yuan Zhan's soul was not strong, but the use of soul power.
However, he soon overturned this conclusion. The use of soul power from Jiu Feng was not powerful either. He was just a race with strong talent and high ability, and had a similar blood lineage memories which taught him how to do things.
So why can't Yuan Zhan absorb the vitality here? Because he usually uses the force of natural elements, and there is another energy mixed in the energy of the western continent?
But Jiu Feng is also the operator of the wind.
Yan Mo thought of the local Horn-people.
Most of the Horn-people in the western continent are not powerful. Why can they absorb the yuan-crystals? Perhaps the most important thing, he speculates, is that their bodies have adapted to the environment of the western continent after a long period of natural transformation.
"Can you still absorb the energy around you as usual?" Yan Mo asked Yuan Zhan.
"Yes."
"Then why can't you absorb the yuan-crystals?"
Yuan Zhan frowned and painstakingly described it: “In daily practice, the surrounding energy is less, less active and difficult to absorb, but a little absorption can still be absorbed. But yuan-crystal, it…… It's very solid and hard. I know there's energy in it, but it's like there's something mixed in the energy I need. I think it's difficult to separate them and absorb the energy I need. "
Yan Mo tapped on his knee. "Why do you have to separate that energy? Wait a minute. I'll ask the Ancestor God, what's the difference between the vitality here and the eastern continent. "
Yan Mo closes his eyes, grabbed a western yuan-crystalline with his right hand, and begins to ask for directions.
The Guide will give you the answer as soon as it is asked.
Yan Mo saw the answer and sneered the corner of his mouth.
“Interesting." Said it and he opened his eyes.
Yuan Zhan sat next to him, "What does the ancestor say?"
Yan Mo thought about how to say to Yuan Zhan to make him understand, "Well, we call the energy that is easy to absorb at ordinary times the force of elements, and the energy unique to the western continent we call dark energy."
"Dark energy?"
"The Ancestor God said that dark energy accounts for most of the energy in the universe, and it is universal. Dark energy can be transformed into other energy through some stimulation, for example, the eastern continent also has dark energy, but after some changes, most of them have become the force of elements, so there are many creatures with the ability in the eastern continent. The dark energy in the western continent is relatively solidified without change. It's like…… "
Yan Mo tries to think that if you want this simple explanation to make Yuan Zhan understand: "Yes, it's like volcanoes and underground magma. Before they erupt, they are just magma. But once they erupt, they become rocks, gold, other minerals, and so on. "
Yuan Zhan understood, "Your statement makes me feel that all energy sources come from dark energy."
Yan Mo's expression was tangled. "You can understand it like that, but even the Ancestor God can't give a correct explanation about dark energy now, or he won't tell me. In a word, the training method given to us by the Ancestor God can absorb dark energy. If we give this training method to the local people, they can form another energy system in the body and emit energy similar to "Qi". If you can absorb the free energy in the air here, you can also absorb the energy in the crystal. "
“Method?"
"You won't use your head?"
Yuan Zhan's mouth is slightly pointed out, “I’m not you."
Yan Mo banged him with his elbow and said, “Lazy man!"
Yuan Zhan's face looked casual. Anyway, it's a rogue expression that said he want to help him find a way.
Yan Mo had no choice but to think, "You can absorb dark energy, right? Then you try to absorb the dark energy into the body first, and then run the training method in the body to see if you can convert it into the force of elements. After you become proficient, you try to absorb the dark energy in the primary crystal directly again, so it may be easier to step by step. Or you try to attack the dark energy in the yuan-crystal to see if you can make it produce some kind of upheaval, and then transform it into the force of the elements you need."
Yuan Zhan still doesn't understand, "Why can you and Jiu Feng absorb it?"
“Maybe it's not just the force of elements that I use, but Jiu Feng race? Kunpeng people in this world seems to be at the top of the food chain. "
Yuan Zhan nodded and pushed down the person around him.
"Why?" Yan Mo was thinking about something and didn't respond for a moment.
Yuan Zhan straddles him, bent over and nibbled at him, whispered to his ear, "Why do you ask such stupid questions every time? Or do you like the words I will say? "
Yan Mo turned around, and "Kanji" it is just one bite to his ear! "Stop talking nonsense! Come on! Big animal, tonight if you make me dissatisfied. In the next three months, you will be a walking eunuch! "
How can a big animal war stand such a provocation? He went crazy in an instant
Young Master Jiu Feng went out for a walk and came back. Suddenly, he found that the original hole was missing.
“Hey! Bad Da Zhan, seal the hole again! "Jiu Feng is furious.
\r \r \r
The next day, the seventeenth day of the outbreak of the epidemic, was also the fourth day for Yan Mo to take the drug medicine to Master Yi Fan and others.
The Wuqian city is here again. This time Master Yi Fan is also here.
Master Yi Fan seemed to be a little worn-down. He gently said to Yan Mo, "The Witch and the City Lord said that they can divide the Twin Mountains and the land around them for you in exchange for prescriptions."
One of the temple-servants took out the map and threw it to Yan Mo.
Yuan Zhan, caught it, unfold it.
Yan Mo looked sideways, and the Twin Mountains were the brackets he saw. The map shows the distance between Qianshan village and Wadi village.
“I remember when I mentioned that I needed more than that."
Yi Fan sighed, “It's not easy for the Great Witch and the City Lord to agree to give such a large piece of land for you. As for not attacking you, as long as you don't mess around and cause trouble, the Wuqian city will not come to you for trouble. As for sacrifice, it can be reduced, but it's impossible to not be paid at all, let alone never. Maybe I can help you fight for thirty years without offering. "
"Thirty years?" Yan Mo didn't say anything, and the temple-servant who came last time turned his face. "Thirty years, not to mention three years, is impossible! Offering must be handed in. This is the land you rent and the worship of Pan’a God is a must. If you don't want to hand in the offering, use people Ah ah! "
The temple-servant suddenly flew up and plunged into the mud nearby.
"Shua!" the Horn-people showed their weapons one after another. Some people went to save the temple-servant.
The guards behind Yan Mo also pointed out their bone spears.
Yan Mo felt funny. He doesn't give Master Yi Fan the afforded respect anymore. “Are you out of your mind? Now you are to be begging me to save your people, not threatening me, you dare to talk to me in such an attitude, you don't want a prescription? "
Master Yi Fan is also very sad. He didn't want to come, but he can't refuse even if he is a Master Bone Sculptor. What's more, there is chaos in the city now.
"Hornless-man, if you're smart, you should offer prescriptions instead of asking ridiculous conditions!" another temple-servant was furious.
"That's enough!" Master Yi Fan raised his hand and turned to the following temple-servant. “If you still want me to stay in the Wuqian City, then you can completely ask for the prescription change yourself. If you don’t need me, I can leave now!"
“Master Yi Fan……” The temple-servant dared to yell at Yan Mo, but dared not ignore a Master level Bone Sculptor.
Master Yi Fan ignored him and turned back to Yan Mo. “I will raise your request. I will try my best to persuade the Witch and the City Lord that you will not have to offer sacrifice for 30 years. This is the limit I can do. "
Yan Mo didn't want to embarrass Yi Fan. He even sympathized with the other side's position, "Sir, I know you have tried your best. Well, in your face, I can accept such a condition. I will exchange the prescription with the territory you have agreed on, and at the same time, I won't have to offer offerings for 30 years. "
The Hornless-men heard behind him were very happy. In the past, they did not dare to think of such conditions. Don't mention the several demands put forward by Yan Mo, which are what the Horn-people have agreed now, especially that they can die happily without sacrificing for 30 years.
"The prescription is as follows. Please remember." Yan Mo begins to dictate that several people in the Horn-people immediately take out paper and pen or record at the same time.
Master Yi Fan thought about it and made a note of it.
The temple-servant wanted to stop Yan Mo from saying the details of the prescription in front of so many people, but Yan Mo spoke quickly and has said a lot in a flash, so the temple-servant can only speed up the recording.
Some of the Horn-people and the Hornless-men are not good at thinking about the recording. They all try their best to use their brains to remember. When they can write down this prescription, they can exchange a large amount of bone coins!
Both the Qiyu village people and the Wadi village people feel extremely distressed. They think that Mo Da-Ren loses his upper hand, they should not tell the prescription in public.
Over there, a few horned warriors are still pulling out the temple-servant. I don't know what the mud is famous for. It seems that there is suction power in it. The harder he struggles outside, the tighter he gets pulled inside.
The horn-warrior came to pull him out. His neck was lengthened, which made him howl in pain. But all his howls were blocked by mud, and nothing could be heard.
Gradually, he couldn't breathe.
“Poof!" the temple-servant was finally pulled out.
That was the end of Yan Mo's dictation.
The temple-servant has fainted. As soon as the other Horn-people got the prescription, they don't want to do much for the time being. Take the temple-servant and return to the Wuqian city. To revenge, to clean up this group of the Hornless-men, there will be opportunities in the future!
Master Yi Fan, took one step behind, said heavily to Yan Mo, “You should leave, kid. Don't stay here! "
After that, Master Yi Fan didn't give Yan Mo a chance to ask, and left quickly with several guards left behind.
Yan Mo went to Yuan Zhan, smiles silently and threw the parchment which represents the title deed to Xi Yang.
Yuan Zhan grabbed his shoulder and lowered his head to rub his forehead.
“Are you ready?" Yan Mo said in the Jiu Yuan language.
"Um."
"When do you think they will attack?"
“It won't be late, at most before autumn."
“It's too long. We don't have so much time to spend toying with them."
“I'll speed them up. Aren't you short of bone coins?"
"We are short of food, a lot of weapons and cloth. In short, we are short of everything."
“Leave it to me."
When Buhua saw the Horn-people coming, he specifically avoided them and waited for them to leave before coming out, so he missed the prescription.
In these two days, he didn't go deep into the Hornless-men camp consciously, but he walked outside and saw what he could see.
When Yan Mo came to see his partner, Buhua went to the car.
Yan Mo came out of the car. "Your partners are recovering well."
It's really good. Zha Luo in the worst situation can sit up with his eyes open. Dan-dun can get out of the car for a walk and eat some porridge.
Zha Luo was used to the service of the Hornless-men. He was not surprised to see the Hornless-men. He did not know that the Hornless-men were treating him.
Buhua also didn't tell him about it. If Zha Luo knew that he had taken the drug medicine refined by the Hornless-men, and had the Hornless-men put needles in him, he would make a lot of trouble.
Buhua only told Dan-dun what happened. Like most of the Black-Horn-people, Dan-dun had a relatively peaceful view of the Hornless-men. He knew that he had been treated by the Hornless-men and said nothing. He just wanted to give more bone coins and see if he could buy their prescriptions and special herbs.
Looking back at his companion in the car, Buhua signaled Yan Mo to go a little further.
Four bodyguards followed Yan Mo.
Yan Mo motioned that they didn't have to follow, so they stood still.
"What can I do for you?"
"Well, this epidemic will spread." Buhua is a little embarrassed.
"Um."
“A lot of the Horn-people of the Wuqian city left the Wuqian city."
"Um."
Seeing Yan Mo's lack of initiative, Buhua pointed out: “I'm afraid that this epidemic called cholera will develop in other towns."
"You're right about that." Yan Mo said positively, “At the beginning, I reminded Master Yi Fan to warn the Lord of Wuqian city to isolate the patients as much as possible and not to move the population casually. I also told him the methods of prevention and care for the patients, but judging from the changes of the Wuqian City, the Lord of Wuqian City obviously did not pay attention to the reminders of Master Yi Fan and me."
"No, in fact……" Buhua has a certain affection for the Lord of the city. He thinks that the Lord of the city manages the city very well. "You know that the Lord of the city is ill, he can't do anything even if he wants to. Later, the city will become like this because his younger brother Wuqian Ya Se is reckless."
“And the temple?"
"The great Witch of the temple has no real power."
"Oh?"
“At least not now."
Yan Mo smiled. He doesn't need to tell Buhua what he thinks. He can only say that any regime or species will compete for power and profit, which will never change because the species has horns or no horns.
Buhua finds that the topic has been shifted away by the little Hornless-men, smiled bitterly and pulled back: "So I want to buy a drug medicine prescription with you that can cure this epidemic."
Yan Mo didn't speak at once.
“I know this prescription must be very valuable to you, but I really want to get it. You can offer me a price."
Yan Mo shook his head. “I can give you the prescription, not even your bone coins can pay, but I hope you can promise me a promise."
Buhua was disappointed and then surprised. "You said, what do you want me to do?"
Yan Mo looked into his eyes and said, “I hope you can promise me that if the epidemic spreads in other places, all the forces who enjoy the benefits of this prescription, in addition to curing the Horn-people, must also cure the Hornless-men, and do not charge them any fees for treating them."
Buhua's expression slightly changed, and the attitude of the youth in front of him became more solemn. “I promise you, although I can't guarantee that every force will take care of all the sick people, I will do my best to let the cities who has this prescription help the sick people."
"Swear."
Buhua solemnly vowed: “Pan'a God Above. If I can get the correct prescription for cholera epidemic, if the drug medicine refined according to the prescription is indeed effective, I will try my best to let the power of this prescription……"
After Yan Mo listened, he nodded, took out the prepared coarse cloth from his pocket, and handed it to Buhua. "This is the prescription, including the boiling and steps of refining. Any herbalist with a little experience can make the right drug medicine when he sees this prescription. If there is no drug refiner, you can take the medicine according to the prescription and boil it. I have also written the method. It's OK for the patient to drink the boiled medicine. The effect will be a little worse, but the patient can reduce the pressure of the drug refiner to refine the medicine for a long time. "
Buhua opened the cloth and read it carefully. After a while, he suddenly frowned, "This is our ancient language? This is what you wrote? How do you know the old words of the Horn-people? "
Yan Mo can only write the old words in the Horn-people language, which is a blessing of bone inheritance, otherwise he wouldn't be able to even write let alone speak.
"You forget, I'm still a Bone Sculptor." Yan Mo smiles and turned to go.
"Wait!" Buhua carefully put away the cloth. “I see you are building houses."
Yan Mo turned around. "What do you want to say?"
Buhua licked his lips and said the same thing as Master Yi Fan: "You should go! Don't stay. "
Yan Mo's face was calm. "Why?"
Buhua avoids saying, "We're going, too. We're leaving this afternoon."
"Your companion is not quite well."
“As you said, it's OK to pay attention to them, and we have the drug medicine you gave us."
"Why do you rush?" Yan Mo slowed down.
Buhua told himself that he just didn't like to take advantage of people, especially the Hornless-men. "You can go to the Mingyue City, which is one of the White-Horn clan's territories. The White-Horn clan has the least prejudice to the Hornless-men. There are many Hornless-men villages around the Mingyue City. When you get there, just take out this Domino and give it to the Mingyue City’s City Lord, he will give you a piece of land for your life. "
Buhua said that and he took a bone plate from his Bone Bracelet and handed it to Yan Mo.
Yan Mo took it over. This time, he put his tone more relaxed, kept looking into Buhua's eyes, and asked again, "Why do you want us to leave? What happened to the Wuqian city? "
Buhua looked at the hornless youth in front of him, a little impatient. After thinking about it, he finally said: "You are a drug refiner and a Bone Sculptor, and your warriors look extraordinary. I heard that your warriors is a demon warrior? This is the absolute forbidden existence to the temple. In addition, so many of the Hornless-men have joined you, and your number has exceeded the allowable range by the Wuqian city. The Wuqian city can tolerate you before, just because the epidemic caught them by surprise. When they solve the problems in the city, they will do their best to kill you all. They will never allow such a threat to their Horn-people. "
"Who are they?"
"You are a wise man, I think you already know. As far as I know, the Wuqian city was in a mess yesterday, and this wave will soon spread to the outside of the city. Besides, the Horn-people in the city almost all know that you have the drug medicine for curing the epidemic disease. If some people fail to get the drug medicine from the temple later, they will break the original idea and try to get the medicine and the drug medicine from you directly. Then you can't run any longer! "
"Thank you for your information."
Buhua looked at Yan Mo's back, which is not big. He was a little stunned. Because of Yan Mo's wholehearted treatment, and he never mentioned asking for him to hand in bone coins, which made him have full of good feelings for the Hornless-men teenager. When the teenager handed over such a valuable prescription, he even thought about everyone rather than his own personal interests, and this made Buhua turn the good feelings into respect.
He wanted to help the Hornless-men and his companions, and he volunteered to provide a foothold. But why did he say so much? Some things even the Horn-people don't know the inside story?
Buhua can't think of it. He can only sum up his unusual performance as his love and sympathy for the teenager.
Yuan Zhan predicted that the Wuqian city would not attack them until the autumn. Even when Yan Mo got the internal information from Buhua, he thought that the forces in the Wuqian city would settle in first and then fight outside.
The two also planned to stimulate the Wuqian City, let them start to attack them in advance, and intensify the contradiction between the Hornless-men and the Horn-people. But before Yuan Zhan can do it, the Wuqian city has taken the lead and sent the army to attack!
Neither of them thought that some forces of the Wuqian city would use them to transfer internal conflicts.
