Chapter 484: Chapter 484: The Lucky Man (3 more)
The wild men were quite familiar with the geographical features of Shenlongjia, and everyone quickly proposed several alternative valleys to live in, leaving the decision to Yang Xiao.
Yang Xiao then said:
"We have just discussed implementing the tribal elder system. Currently, there are thirteen tribes. You should raise your hands to decide which place is the most suitable for living."
As Yang Xiao said this, the tribal leaders were taken aback for a moment, and then they all began to chuckle.
Thus, everyone finally raised their hands to vote for a valley, which was the current location of the Wolf Clan Tribe. There were waterfalls and streams, the valley was large enough, and importantly, it was surrounded by mountains on three sides with only one exit, making it suitable for defending against the intrusion of Mutant Monsters.
At the same time, the valley was located on the border between the edge and the central area of Shenlongjia, surrounded by abundant resources of Mutated Creatures, also convenient for hunting in the central region at any time.
"Good, since everyone has agreed on a unified tribe, let’s prepare for the relocation. The nearby three tribes will move first, and everyone will help build enough wooden houses. Then other tribes will relocate one by one. During this time, I will go help you refine Magic Weapons and Divine Medicine, and I will also come to check on your preparations regularly."
Afterward, a hundred or so wild men barbecued and reveled in the valley; the next day they left happily to prepare for the tribe’s relocation.
Yang Xiao, accompanied by Ah Yong, Elder Shitou, and several nearby tribal leaders, went to the Wolf Clan Tribe’s valley.
Yang Xiao, based on modern residential architecture theory, helped the wild men to make a simple plan within the valley—where to build the living areas and how to dispose of domestic wastewater.
The wild men, besides living in caves, were also adept at building their own wooden houses.
The Wolf Clan Tribe originally had thirty Magic Longswords. These swords were extremely convenient for chopping wood and building houses.
The valley backed onto a high mountain, with a few hundred meters high waterfall cascading down, forming a huge pool in the valley with a stream flowing through.
Yang Xiao suggested planting some wild fruit trees around the valley. After a year or two, there would be no need to travel far for fruits.
To change the previous concept of the tribes, Yang Xiao introduced the idea of mixed living. He divided the houses in the valley into several small areas, and the wild men families could randomly choose areas to live in by drawing lots. This way, with the tribes intermingling, the notion of distinct tribes would fade over time, which would be more conducive to the early integration of the larger tribe.
...
Yang Xiao and Monk Ben Yin stayed in the Wolf Clan Tribe for one night, and the next day he returned to his tribe with Ah Yong.
Ah Yong showed Yang Xiao the Genetic Balls and various Weapons and Equipment models they had collected in the cave, which left Yang Xiao stunned.
The Genetic Balls and Weapons and Equipment collected from the thirteen tribes were piled up in the cave in such quantities that it far exceeded Yang Xiao’s estimate.
There were probably twenty million Crystal Coins worth of Genetic Balls alone, and those pieces of Equipment, after appraisal, were enough for each wild man to possess a Magic Weapon.
Yang Xiao knew that he could not give the wild men so many Weapons all at once; it had to be like squeezing toothpaste, giving them a few dozen each time, and he had to tell them that even a God finds crafting Weapons to be hard work!
Yang Xiao wanted to take all the Genetic Balls first, but considering the vast quantity and how they were stored in baskets, he wondered how he would carry them away.
Yang Xiao thought about it and wasn’t sure whether the Space Ring could receive the items by the basket unit - with each basket occupying one space in the ring. If possible, it would make moving them much easier.
Yang Xiao touched the Space Ring on his finger, his mind in action, and saw a flash of light as a basket full of Genetic Balls entered the Space Ring.
Yang Xiao was delighted with this method’s success.
Ah Yong and Elder Shitou were watching with gaping mouths in awe, thinking God was truly incredible to have such methods!
The two looked at Yang Xiao’s Space Ring for a long time but could not get an explanation, their hearts filled with a sense of mystery.
Yang Xiao put all twenty-plus large baskets into the space ring, and then filled bags with dozens of weapons and equipment before saying to Ah Yong:
"You’ll be relocating to a new place in a while, so these items will be temporarily stored in the cave. I will come to fetch them at any time."
"Alright, we will follow the god’s orders!"
Yang Xiao said his goodbyes, and before leaving, gave Ah Yong a box of table salt, which Ah Yong treasured beyond measure, full of gratitude.
The two rode the giant eagle back to the cave, rested for the night, and early the next day, before dawn, they rode the giant eagle towards Kongming City.
At this time, Zhong Cailing’s aerial patrol had not yet started, so naturally, they were unaware that Yang Xiao had already left Shenlongjia.
After more than two hours, Yang Xiao returned to Shanyun City and took the transmission array back to Nanmu City, going straight to the Shaolin Temple.
Gong Yu and Long Yongjun were overjoyed to see Yang Xiao return.
There were many practicing at the Shaolin Temple, and quite a few knew of Yang Xiao and Monk Ben Yin’s return, coming over to greet them one by one.
Lan Xin and others from the neighboring Shenming Mountain Sect also heard the news quickly and came over as well.
After greeting everyone, Yang Xiao sent people to fetch Xia Luo, Xiao Zhe, Zhao Gang, Zhou Qiang, Huang Wen, Qin Yu, and others from afar, preparing to hold a meeting the next day to discuss the conquest of Shenlongjia.
That evening, Yang Xiao visited the Genetic Store in the city district.
Seeing Yang Xiao, Gu Bo said with a smile:
"You must have reaped quite a few benefits from Shenlongjia this time, right?"
Yang Xiao replied with a smile:
"Our resources in Kongming City are scarce. If I don’t go out and find some resources, my genetic evolution level would just plateau."
After saying that, Yang Xiao took out a large basket of genetic balls from the space ring.
When the basket brimming with genetic balls was placed in front of Gu Bo, he was somewhat stunned.
Yang Xiao hadn’t been gone long; how could he have collected so many genetic balls? How many monsters did he have to kill?
But to Gu Bo’s surprise, Yang Xiao kept taking out basket after basket of genetic balls from the space ring, making Gu Bo and his assistant’s eyes nearly pop out.
"My goodness, this is incredible! There’s worth at least 20 million crystal coins here! How, how did you collect so many genetic balls?"
Yang Xiao purposely brought the genetic balls to Gu Bo in Nanmu City to show him that indeed, he had always been collecting a large number of genetic balls to enhance his genetic evolution, to reassure Gu Bo that he was just an ordinary genetic evolver without any special abilities.
Yang Xiao did not lie, and said directly:
"There are many primitive tribes at Shenlongjia that kill a lot of monsters, and they store these genetic balls in caves as decorations. I just visited each tribe and traded them some attribute magic swords in exchange for the balls."
After listening, Gu Bo nodded and responded:
"It seems you are a lucky man!"
(Dizzy, not sure if the fourth update can be completed, don’t wait.)
