CH 9

The fog cleared, and the sun shone clearly to the bottom of the valley.

Everyone had goosebumps.

The narrow rift valley was about two hundred meters long, about ten meters deep, the rocks were thick black.

In addition to the dense piles of corpses in mountains, they had never seen each other’s face. These living people tilted their heads back and up, as if they were trying to drown in the sunlight.

They let out a burst of wailing and shrill whistling that echoed across the valley floor, as if evil spirits were crying.

“This is the pit ……,” Rong Yue said in a deep voice.

With Yue Dong and Li Shui, it took them a day to get here.

From a distance, this place could be called a fairyland – an empty grassland, a forest that couldn’t be seen to the end as far as the eye could see, and hundreds of meters away were patches of lakes, large and small.

The lake was blue like fairy crystal, reflecting the warm sunlight, and there were two beautiful female deer at the edge of the lake, watching them warily.

Even the clouds in the sky drifted gently, swirling with the breeze, as if drifting sharply would spoil the splendid scene.

If only there wasn’t that one rift valley that was like an ugly scar.

But Rong Yue was satisfied.

“So many people, what a big place!” He clapped his hands, as if he had just slapped away the displeasure brought by the image in front of him, then he turned to Tian Yang, “Can we have this place?”

Tian Yang fixedly looked at the bottom of the valley twice, then turned to Yue Dong: “I remember there are several small tribes around here?”

Yue Dong: “Yes, but I don’t know if they moved away after the land subsidence.”

Tian Yang replied: “Then this place will be ours.”

Rong Yue laughed out loud: “Since they treated this place as a garbage disposal plant, it’s not like we’re in their way.”

He looked down again, and suddenly thought: “After bringing them out, let’s build a baking workshop down there!”

Yue Dong: “Bake …… what?”

Yung Yue: “Baking. It’s baking bread and baking cakes and baking meat ……”

In the major main cities of the Xingyue continent, there were life skill areas. Although Rong Yue didn’t know how to do it, he watched the players operate it.

One of them had a baking workshop, which was built in the middle of an alcove. The steam that rose like sweet-smelling frosting enveloped the entire workshop in happiness.

This may be called …… labor is the most glorious!

Although Yue Dong didn’t know what bread and cake was, but baked meat …… he looked at the pile of corpses below in a word and got goose bumps: “Really want to bake meat?”

Rong Yue: “It won’t always be like this. Let’s talk about it later, we need to save them first.”

It was more than ten meters high, Tian Yang and Yue Dong could directly jump down without injury, but according to the steepness of this cliff wall, climbing back up would be too difficult.

They brought some dried meat in the luggage, but didn’t dare to throw it down directly, because they were afraid to cause crowd looting.

Tian Yang and Yue Dong agreed to go to the forest and look for strong vines, it would make it convenient to climb up and down for the time being.

Rong Yue waved his hand, refusing to participate in physical labor for the time being, he thought about it and added: “If you can, bring more meat back, in case they don’t have enough to eat.”

Xiao Ergou also wanted to go, so the three of them went.

Li Shui went to a side of the clearing to set up camp, Rong Yue crouched on the edge of the rift valley and looked down, surrounded by three balls of holy light.

He couldn’t leave, once the holy light dispersed, the people crying in pain below may experience a blow from hope to despair, that was worse than if he had never appeared.

The echoes in the Rift Valley were too severe for him to hear what was being said below, so he simply stopped listening and just felt at ease as a statue.

Soon, the cries faded, and finally a clear female voice penetrated the crowd, and the words rang clearly in Rong Yue’s ears –

“Are you a god–!”

Rong Yue was startled and stood up in a hurry, shouting downward: “I am not–”

The female voice screamed, “Ahhhhhh god speaks!!!”

Rong Yue: “……” No, won’t you listen to me?

Rong Yue was still in a weak state and couldn’t support the skill for too long, and briefly collected the holy light. But maybe he gave the valley people a sense of truth after he spoke, after seeing the holy light go out, they didn’t make much of a commotion.

Li Shui made a simple animal skin tent, made a fire, put other utensils, and moved to Rong Yue’s side with a dissatisfied expression.

“Do you know how to weave cloth?”

Rong Yue: “No.”

Lu Shui looked to the other side: “Then you can knit rope.”

Forgive Rong Yue’s incompetence: “I don’t know either.”

Lv Shui looked at him in surprise: “Then are you good at making food? I heard that the women in the salt department are very good at handling food and making things that smell good and have a different taste ……”

Rong Yue thought about it, he had a recipe given to him by the players, he had also heard of fish, fragrant shredded pork, and chicken, but he had never tried, so he told the truth: “Tian Yang can do it.”

Dewy was shocked and felt pity for him: “How can Tian Yang like you!?”

Rong Yue looked at this round-faced young girl: “Guess?”

Li Shui: ？？？？

On the other end, Yue Dong held Ergou and followed behind Tian Yang, finally reaching the edge of that forest.

The forest was full of trees and animal traces were everywhere, so it was obviously an excellent hunting ground. Ergou picked fruits, while the other two picked a few vines and began to cut it with stone knives.

After cutting a few, Yue Dong finally couldn’t hold back: “Tian Yang, what’s going on with Yue?”

Tian Yang tore the outer skin of the stems with his hands: “Afraid?”

Yue Dong hissed: “Not really, he’s just a little weird, right? Although I haven’t had much contact with him before, is he really such a person?”

A small sacrifice hiding in the chief’s house without leaving home, he lived like Yu Lian’s toy.

What was the use of being pretty again? Yue Dong didn’t think highly of Yue.

After he came back from the forest, he listened to what Li Shui spoke about, and on the one hand, he was extremely dissatisfied with Yu Lian, and on the other hand, he was also very disdainful of Yue.

However, his disdain disappeared after he found out that Yue and Tian Yang had disappeared together.

In any case, according to Tian Yang’s current weak body, the fact that he could accompany him, showed that he was loyal.

But he never expected that the Yue he met was completely different from what he remembered.

It even made him wonder if he was a different person.

Tian Yang seemed to know what he was thinking and laughed lightly: “You’re right.”

Yue Dong’s hand shook, he almost chopped off his finger: “Wait, what do you mean!?”

Tian Yang: “I don’t know exactly, but Yue is now someone from another world, he admitted it himself.”

“My brother!” In shock, Yue Dong mistakenly grabbed a handful of thorns: “Then how are you just living with him?! What if he’s some kind of evil spirit ……”

“It won’t happen.” Tian Yang whispered.

He stacked up the cut vines and threw them toward an open space: “His power is warm.”

He had experienced it and knew how enchanting the vigorous power that welled up from the heart was. It was gentle hope, as if it could wash away the darkness and violence in his bones.

Tian Yang still remembered the bright light he saw through his eyelids.

After recovering from serious injuries, when he regained his life and opened his eyes, he met the pale but confident and beautiful eyes of Yue.

He was drenched in sweat, but still wore a careless smile, he obviously performed a miracle, but he acted as if it was a trivial thing to do.

Yue Dong looked at Tian Yang’s certainty, it wasn’t good to say anything else.

He had always been taken of by Tian Yang, “Hey forget it, if you say it’s okay …… then what is his name? Is he also called Yue?”

Tian Yang then remembered that he hadn’t asked Yue his real name.

But …… there was no hurry.

He didn’t answer, his eyes caught sight of a fierce-looking stag in the distance, hiding behind a tree and secretly observing them.

…… It looked delicious, Yue should like it.

Tian Yang straightened up and prepared for three seconds, then he ran out like a stray arrow!

His bone knife was thrown, and cut on the stag’s hind leg, Tian Yang quickly ended its life.

Yue Dong came over and looked at it: “Nice! We can go back, right?”

Tian Yang held down his vaguely painful injury and commanded him: “Cut some more firewood.”

The two of them worked for a while, and were lucky enough to catch another fat rat beast, Tian Yang called back Xiao Ergou, and went back carrying firewood and vines.

It was already dark, the dewy fire and the ball of holy light floating around Rong Yue could be seen from far away.

Rong Yue stood up: “You’re back.”

Tian Yang smiled at him: “Hungry?”

Rong Yue: “Hungry, roast the meat first, Li Shui can teach me how to braid the rope.”

The vine surface was smooth, not long enough to go down to the bottom of the valley, so it had to be tied together. The default on this continent was to use special techniques to weave vines and then connect them into ropes.

They plus the Ergou were only five people, so Rong Yue had to help weave.

The holy light was like a bright lamp, even though the sky was getting dark, Li Shui could still see her hands, and step by step tried to teach Rong Yue.

While doing so, Rong Yue said: “The situation below isn’t very good, we need to take a little food, feed the people so they don’t die.”

Why did this sound strange? Yue Dong nodded confusedly, and then thought out loud: “If we go down, who will pull the rope above?”

Tian Yang looked around and pointed towards the lake: “There is a big rock over there, go move it over, we can tie the rope to the rock.”

Yue Dong looked in the direction of Tian Yang’s finger and saw a boulder that was as tall as him.

Yue Dong: “…………”

He resigned himself to go.

Little Ergou helped Tian Yang lift the stick and break the branch, but she never spoke.

Rong Yue glanced at her: “Was the forest not fun? Why aren’t you speaking?”

When Xiao Ergou saw everyone looking at her, she pouted: “I didn’t find the fairy flower today ……”

Rong Yue’s hands clumsily bent the vine in one direction, it was obviously according to Li Shui’s actions, but how come it didn’t look convincing? “Is the fairy flower beautiful?”

Xiao Ergou: “Beautiful!”

Rong Yue: “Many people want it?”

Xiao Ergou frowned: “I think so, Ama Xue Qi wants it, and everyone I used to know also wants it.”

Rong Yue struggled with the vine in his hand, raised his eyes and asked, “It’s beautiful, and many people want it, but not everyone can have it – that means it is precious.”

Xiao Ergou’s hand subconsciously picked at the branch in her hand, and she looked at him in confusion.

Rong Yue laughed softly: “If you can get it easily, then it is not precious.”

The last of the sunset sank.

Rong Yue looked up and glanced at the stars in the sky.

“Life is precious, freedom is precious, and feelings are also precious. Your fairy flower is more beautiful because it is precious. If you can’t find it in one day, you can find it in ten days, and if you can’t find it in ten days, you can find it in a hundred days.”

Rong Yue put the last knot on and finally breathed out: “Precious things are not so easy to have, you have to take your time to find them.”

Xiao Ergou seemed to understand and nodded: “Lord Yue, the rope you made up is really ugly.”

Rong Yue: “…………”
