The sun set in the west, night fell, and darkness enveloped the entire earth. Outside, tigers roared and monkeys cried, but Stone Village was very lively. The entire village was shrouded in a thin layer of green divine light. The open space in the village had long since been lit up with clusters of bonfires, and on top of them were roasted golden beast meat and copper cauldrons. The fragrance of the meat wafted everywhere, making people salivate.
Today, not only did the clansmen who went out return safely, they also brought back many good things, making the villagers of Stone Village extremely excited.
Shi Feijiao and the others were already talking about the dangers they faced on the way to Little Lonely Mountain Town, the items they bought and sold, and finally encountering the infamous Black Mountain Bandits after returning.
After the villagers heard about the Black Mountain Bandits, they couldn't help but jump in fright, because the Black Mountain Bandits could be said to be notorious in this area. Who knew how many villages had been looted by them, and countless lives had been lost in their hands.
However, after hearing about how Ye Xuan blew up the leader of the Black Mountain Bandits with a single punch and conveniently killed all the Black Mountain Bandits, all the villagers immediately cheered loudly. One by one, they ran over to thank Ye Xuan with reverence, gratitude, and joy, toasting and drinking with him with incomparable joy.
After drinking with all the villagers who came over to propose a toast, Ye Xuan followed them and danced their unique mountain village dance. Feeling very happy, Ye Xuan walked to the side and sat down. He looked at the villagers who were dancing happily with a smile.
At this time, an old man carrying a child walked over and said with a smile, "This is our village's way of celebrating. How is it, are you used to it?"
"Chief!" Seeing Shi Yunfeng, Ye Xuan faintly smiled and stood up. Looking at the little guy whose eyes were darting around in Shi Yunfeng's arms, he reached out and carried him over, conveniently patting his little butt and said honestly, "Haha, although I'm not very used to it, I quite like this way of celebrating."
"Haha, that's good, that's good. Come, sit!" Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Shi Yunfeng amiably smiled, then sat down on the grass at his feet.
Ye Xuan naturally did not stand on ceremony. He carried Xiao Budian and sat on the ground. He placed him beside his feet and let him crawl everywhere.
"Hehe, Xiao Budian seems to be in better spirits these few days. I think it won't be long before he learns to walk!" Looking at Xiao Budian who was crawling everywhere, Ye Xuan smiled and said.
"Yeah, this little guy is getting more and more restless. However, this is all thanks to you hunting down so many vicious beasts and eating so many precious medicines and blood essences. He's finally a bit more spirited." Shi Yunfeng looked at the drooling Tiny Tot, who was lying on Ye Xuan's thighs and trying to stuff his pants into his mouth with a gentle gaze. He smiled in a gratified manner.
"That's right, chief, who are the little guy's parents? I don't think I've heard of it before? "Ye Xuan rubbed Xiao Budian's head and couldn't help but ask.
"His parents left Stone Village a year ago. There's no news of them now, and no one knows where they are!" Shi Yunfeng sighed and said.
Hearing that although Shi Yunfeng did not lie to him, he did not mention much about Xiao Budian's parents. It was obvious that he did not want to talk about it. Ye Xuan also pretended not to hear it. He smiled, then suddenly said, "That's right, chief, there are two things I want to discuss with you."
"Oh, what is it? Speak!" Shi Yunfeng was surprised for a moment, then looked at Ye Xuan.
"The first thing is, I want to ask everyone to help me build a house at the back of the village." Ye Xuan said with a smile.
"Build a house? Why do you suddenly want to build a house? Is it because you are uncomfortable living at my place? "Shi Yunfeng said.
"Chief, you misunderstand. The reason why I want to build a house is mainly to make it convenient for me to train. You also know that last time I was careless and almost destroyed your house …" Ye Xuan said with an embarrassed smile.
"So it's like that. Alright then, I will arrange this matter tomorrow. Don't worry!" Shi Yunfeng muttered to himself for a moment, then nodded his head and agreed.
"Then I will trouble everyone!" Ye Xuan said.
"There is no need to say that. You have done more for us." Shi Yunfeng shook his head, then said, "What is the second thing?"
"I saw that when everyone was cultivating in the morning, it seemed to be quite messy. There didn't seem to be any order to it, so cultivating in this way doesn't seem to have any effect. If chief doesn't mind, I have some basic martial skills here. Although they can't increase the quality of the body like the bone talismans, and they don't have the ability to overturn rivers and seas like precious techniques, they should still be of some help in actual combat."
"What are the martial skills you are talking about?" Shi Yunfeng had never heard of any martial skills. After hearing Ye Xuan's words, he suspiciously asked.
"In summary, martial arts techniques are fighting techniques that combine a series of movements. If two people with the same physical fitness learn martial arts techniques, their actual combat abilities will be greatly improved. One person might be able to fight against two people, or one might be able to fight against ten people." Ye Xuan gave a brief explanation.
"Good!" After hearing Ye Xuan's explanation, Shi Yunfeng's eyes brightened and immediately nodded his head in agreement. "Since it is like this, then I will not be polite. When do you plan on teaching them martial skills?"
As the saying goes, old people are shrewd. Shi Yunfeng could be said to be the most knowledgeable person in Stone Village. He was also a person of virtue and prestige. Otherwise, he would not have become the chief of Stone Village.
After hearing Ye Xuan's explanation of martial skills, Shi Yunfeng immediately understood that this so-called martial skill was definitely not ordinary. Although Ye Xuan said that it was not like bone talismans or precious techniques, but under the same circumstances, it was able to increase the combat ability of those who learned martial skills.
This kind of ability, for the villagers who were unable to cultivate bone talismans, was very precious. Not to mention other things, if this martial skill really had the effect that Ye Xuan said, then the survival rate of the villagers who entered the Wasteland in the future would also be higher. This was a great thing for Stone Village.
"This matter should not be delayed. How about we start tomorrow morning!" Ye Xuan thought for a moment and said.
"Good, then tomorrow I will let them learn martial skills from you!" Shi Yunfeng nodded his head.
The fragrance of fine wine wafted in the air, the golden roasted beast meat, and the celebration. The villagers were also tired. The bonfire gradually extinguished, and the villagers went home to sleep. Stone Village once again returned to peace.
Just as Ye Xuan was about to return to his courtyard, a gentle voice suddenly sounded in his mind, "Come here for a moment!"
Ye Xuan raised his eyebrows, then turned around and walked towards the entrance of the village …
