Martial Arts: Start by Obtaining the Wild World

Chapter 159 0158: Mole Beast; Preparation for the Temple
The moment the orc spirit touched the mole, a prompt interface appeared:

-

[Do you want to select this target to fuse with the orc spirit? ]

【whether】

-

Yes!
Immediately, the azure orc essence melted into the mole's body like solidified grease.

At the same time, the mole also stopped moving for a moment, its body stiff, as if dead.

Cheng Zongyang frowned and put it on the ground.

The next moment, the mole's body suddenly trembled, and then its puppy-sized body began to grow larger, as if it had been injected with some kind of hormone that accelerated growth.

The creatures in the wilderness world are already much larger than those in the outside world, and now that they are growing rapidly, they look a bit more ferocious!

The body is no longer cute and chubby, but has become strong and muscular! The limbs are no longer short, but slender like a human!

The eyes and mouth also changed a little, but the tail became smaller.

This abnormal situation lasted for a while. In the end, the change in body size forced Cheng Zongyang to remain silent for a long time!
He really wanted to ask - Gangzi, is that you?
You may have seen a kangaroo that is about two meters tall, but have you ever imagined a two-meter-tall mole?

This mutated mole is like a combination of the two! It looks like a mole, but its body is like a kangaroo, with thick hair on its body, no tail, and the claws on its front limbs are like the claws of a wolverine, with a dark luster! The muscles of its limbs are also very developed!

At this time, the mole's body moved, and then its cherry-sized eyes opened, revealing dark green eyeballs, and then it slowly stood up.

Cheng Zongyang's gaze followed it, from looking down to gradually looking up.

About two and a half meters!
Cheng Zongyang estimated the approximate height by visual inspection.

The situation here also attracted the attention of Ma San and others. They gathered around and stared at the mutated mole with the same vigilance!
The mole looked a little dazed, and its eyes scanned the surroundings. Finally, its gaze fell on Cheng Zongyang, and it walked forward a few steps. As a result, Ma San and others immediately came to Cheng Zongyang, ready to stop it. If there was any abnormal behavior, they would take action.

"It's okay." Cheng Zongyang said.

He could feel a connection with it, and knew that this mutated mole would obey his orders.

This situation is like a soul slave without independent thinking, and poses no threat to him.

At this time, information about the mutated mole also emerged.

Mole Beast

Introduction: An ordinary little mole mutated after integrating with the orc spirit, strengthening its body and abilities. However, it was unable to withstand the impact of the orc spirit, lost its self-awareness, and only obeyed orders.

Grade: ★★

Species: Exotic
talent:

①: Soil control, which can affect the soil structure within one meter around;
②: Beast strength, a natural ability from the orc spirit, can lift objects thirty times its own weight;
(Note: Talent can be enhanced as one's body is strengthened.)
ability:

①: Digging in the mountains and the ground. The claws have been strengthened and almost have the ability to split mountains and rocks;

②: Super senses. The originally sensitive sense of smell and hearing have become even stronger after being strengthened. It can distinguish the direction of all smells within a radius of three kilometers and the approximate location of the target. Super hearing can even sense the movements of underground creatures. Therefore, it can often avoid danger in advance.

Looking at the data and attributes of the mole after it mutated and turned into a two-star mole beast, he was also stunned by this attribute interface.

He never imagined that a 1500-point orc essence could not only create an alien beast, but also an alien beast with talent!

Ever since he came into contact with his first exotic beast, he had never seen an exotic beast with natural talents.

They are all of the same ability.

But the mole beast not only has two good abilities, but also two more talents!!

"With this guy's talent and ability, it would be a shame if you didn't let him become a miner!" Cheng Zongyang murmured.

But what follows is excitement and excitement!

With this mole, there are no caves, cellars, tunnels or mineral veins that cannot be dug!

It can even use its super senses to find various minerals and precious medicinal materials!
"You really are a treasure!" Cheng Zongyang stared at the mole with burning eyes.

Although these talents are not directly related to combat, they are extremely powerful aids!

"Hahahaha~ I'm rich!!" Cheng Zongyang couldn't suppress his excitement.

But the next moment, he seemed to remember something, and his smile stopped abruptly. He grabbed the mole's thick wrist, which he could only hold half of, and entered the market hut.

As soon as he thought of it, the man and the beast disappeared at the same time. After a few breaths, they reappeared.

“Hahaha! As long as I can take it out!!!” Cheng Zongyang was relieved now.

I was just worried that I couldn’t get this mole out.

"Mole Beast, you will listen to Luo Zheng's arrangements for the time being."

He knew that the mole beast could understand what he said and would obey his orders.

Sure enough, the mole nodded woodenly, then turned around, looked in the direction Cheng Zongyang pointed, walked towards where Luo Zheng was, and continued to stand motionless beside him.

Cheng Zongyang looked at Luo Zheng and said:
"You can let it dig caves or cellars. You can study what it eats later. It's our only expert cave digger, so don't treat it harshly.

Also, give it more training, some tonic food, etc. Try to see if you can improve its physical strength. It may be possible to restore its independent thinking in the future.”

According to the introduction, this mole beast lost its independent thinking because it could not bear the orc's spirit. Talent can be enhanced by improving physical fitness.

So does this mean that the mole beast has a chance of recovery?

But no matter whether it can or not, it must be fed and drunk well.

With such powerful four auxiliary abilities, the mole beast will play a significant role in the development of Chengjia Village and the wilderness world before obtaining the second orc essence!
Luo Zheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, sir. This is my strong point."

Cheng Zongyang nodded slightly and let them get busy.

He was in no hurry to take the mole out.

Even if the mole is asked to do something at the moment, it would first do one thing - dig a tunnel!

A tunnel leading from Chengjia Village to Jinqiao Village.

Later, a house will be built in Jinqiao Village to cover the tunnel.

Some materials and personnel can also go in and out through the tunnel, which can enhance the secrecy of Chengjia Village.

But Jinqiao Village had long been burned down, and building a single house there was out of place and aroused suspicion.

As for the future of Jinqiao Village, he has already made plans and is not in a hurry.

In the future, moles will dig tunnels and cellars, and then look for minerals, medicinal herbs, etc.

There are many things to do, but there is only one mole, so he can only handle them according to their importance.

After that, things were pretty much handled.

Cheng Zongyang hung the wilderness map on the wall of the cabin so that he could check it at any time in the future, and gave the sugarcane and pineapple directly to Li Xingyun to cultivate.

After dealing with these things, Cheng Zongyang looked at his watch. It was past four o'clock. It was almost dawn.

Leave the market hut and appear in your room.

He was not sleepy and continued to practice the breath-holding technique.

As the sounds of roosters crowing rose and fell in the village, Cheng Zongyang slowly opened his eyes and exhaled slowly in a specific rhythm.

A minute later, he took out his watch and looked at it. It was already half past six in the morning. It was already bright outside, and the villagers had already gotten up to work. He could even hear the people in the martial arts hall starting to line up and count.

Some basic physical training in the martial arts hall was based on the military training he had inherited from his previous life.

In addition to training their discipline, it also trains their teamwork. Most importantly, it improves these people's already average physique.

Only when the physical fitness is improved, even if the body training cannot achieve twice the result with half the effort, it can be done steadily. Otherwise, the physical fitness cannot keep up with the intensity of the body training, resulting in insufficient qi and blood, and falling behind in progress.

Just like Zhang Guangwen, his qi and blood were a little insufficient when he first entered the realm, so he could only be considered to have barely entered the realm.

Later, with the help of the Body Tempering Powder, it was improved to reach the true level of quality.

Taking a look at his attribute panel, he found that his proficiency in breath-holding was only a pitiful three points.

To reach the entry level, you need to have at least 100 points of progress.

This is a really slow start!

Finally, he shook his head, got up, changed his clothes and walked out.

As a result, when he went out, he saw from afar a lot of people gathered in the area outside the river.

This made Cheng Zongyang a little confused, and he happened to see his second brother Cheng Zongliang carrying a small cloth bag at this time, as if he was going to school.

When he saw Cheng Zongyang, he also shouted something like "Brother, good morning".

But the fact that he could barely open his eyes and looked a little sleepy really made Cheng Zongyang laugh.

They went to school so early not to study, but to train.

At his request, the school has half an hour between the hours of Mao and Chen in the morning as time for basic physical training.

Just like doing morning exercises before class, it can not only boost their spirits in the morning but also improve their physical fitness, which is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.

Physical training should start from childhood, not after learning martial arts.

This can greatly improve the physical fitness of children and young people in the village.

"Looking at your physical condition, you are stronger than before, and you have learned a lot."

Cheng Zongliang yawned, rolled his eyes at his elder brother, and sighed, "If I don't learn anything, my father will beat me to death. And he won't let me find Zhaodi and Laidi."

Cheng Zongliang was not afraid of his elder brother. He also knew that his elder brother always loved him, although he was sometimes strict.

After hearing the reason why he studied, Cheng Zongyang almost laughed out of anger. Is this kid fighting for love?

Cheng Zongyang went over and put his arm around his shoulders, saying as they walked:

"How are you doing in school? If you're not doing well, won't Zhaodi and the others say that you're not making progress?"

The two brothers hadn't chatted like this for a long time. Cheng Zongliang didn't care, and let his elder brother carry him on his shoulders as he walked out. He just ignored his elder brother's last words, raised the cloth bag across his body, and laughed:
"They definitely won't. Have you seen this cloth bag of mine? It was given to them by your two future sisters-in-law."

Cheng Zongyang paused, his face dark. When did this kid learn to show affection and spread dog food? He immediately lowered his head and glanced at him:
"...No, Zhaodi and her sister had never seen you like this before they came to our house. Why did you change afterwards?"

Cheng Zongliang felt a little embarrassed and continued walking forward without saying anything.

Cheng Zongyang was amused. There must be some trick that he didn't know about.

But she didn't continue teasing him. She took a few quick steps and continued to put her arm around his shoulders: "So how are you doing in school?"

Cheng Zongliang straightened his chest and said, "Of course there is no problem. These are all the things you showed me before, so I learned them quickly. But now the teacher is teaching the process of recognizing words. But the teacher often praises you..."

The two brothers walked towards the river while chatting.

Cheng Zongyang also learned about some of the problems facing the school from his younger brother.

There was a shortage of pens, ink, paper and inkstones, but there was no shortage of chairs and benches.

Cheng Zongyang took note of this and decided to go to the county town to search for loot in a few days.

In addition, I don't have to go to school this morning, but to watch the initiation ceremony. Bring your schoolbag with you, but you still have to go to class in the afternoon.

Let the second brother go to the school to put his schoolbag, and Cheng Zongyang go to the clan hall.

As soon as I entered, I saw my father and several other elders talking about something, and outside, there were a lot of people gathered.

"Zongyang, why don't you sleep a little longer?" Zhou Zhenyuan asked with a smile when he saw Cheng Zongyang.

Immediately, the others also looked over, but then continued to talk about the matter.

Cheng Zongyang shook his head slightly: "I'm used to it. What are you doing?"

"Let's discuss the matter of ancestor worship." Zhou Zhendong and Cheng Zongwen also came over.

When the adults were talking about things like this, the younger generation could only watch and learn from the sidelines.

"This means we are going to start adding the Earthly Branches." Cheng Zongwen whispered. "We have basically discussed everything in the past two days. We are just waiting for the time and the items for ancestor worship to be delivered to the ancestral hall."

Cheng Zongyang nodded slightly. He didn't expect it to be so soon. Did you mention it yesterday?
Zhou Zhenyuan asked somewhat confusedly:
"It looks like it should be a big event. This ancestor worship should not be as simple as the ancestor worship we usually do during festivals, right?"

Cheng Zongwen nodded: "Yes, but it will be carried out according to the big three animals, and there will be more sacrificial items, such as wine, fruits, cakes, etc., no longer as simple as the small three animals. We have never tried to add a lineage, so it will be carried out in the way of the big ancestor worship. It is also a way to inform the ancestors."

Cheng Zongyang looked at his cousin and smiled slightly.

Cheng Zongwen often interacted with Zhou Hansong and the old man on this kind of thing, so he knew more about it. It was quite natural for him to explain it.

Zhou Zhenyuan and Zhou Zhendong also knew about the big three animals and the small three animals.

After the adults finished discussing, Zhou Hansong called over the eldest sons of the four families and began to instruct them:

"Zongwen, go outside and tell those people to get ready. Inform them of some rules and etiquette."

"Okay!" Cheng Zongwen nodded and left immediately.

Next came the brothers Zhou Zhenyuan and Zhou Zhendong, who were assigned to carry the offerings to the Cheng family ancestral hall.

Finally, it is Cheng Zongyang.

"The family tree is in the ancestral hall. You said before that the family tree is special. So, you will be responsible for entering the names of the earthly branches in the family tree this time. Is there any problem?" Cheng Guanghai stared at his son with burning eyes.

Ever since hearing that there was something special about the family tree, Cheng Guanghai has not allowed anyone to touch it.

Not only the family tree, but even the animal skin of the Immortal Ancestor's Oath, he transferred it from the clan hall to the Cheng family ancestral hall for storage.

It is to prevent some secrets from being known by outsiders.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Zongyang did not refuse and nodded in agreement.

He used the roster in the family tree because of its function. Although it is still incomplete, he will start to restore it later.

Cheng Zongliang turned back and brought several younger brothers and sisters into the clan hall. They stood obediently behind their brother and listened quietly.

In Chengjia Village, there is no rule that women cannot participate in the clan entry ceremony, nor is there a rule that prohibits them from entering the ancestral hall.

This rule was originally proposed by several elders, but was rejected by him.

This is just participating in the clan's rituals, not taking charge of the clan's plans, nor getting in touch with the family's core secrets, so there is nothing to keep secret.

This approach will only make the women in the village and clan feel excluded and think that they will be outsiders in the future, thus they will not have much sense of belonging to the family.

Therefore, rejecting this rule will make them feel involved and will enhance the cohesion of the entire clan and village, making Chengjia Village and Chengjia and Zhoujia better!
Otherwise, his second aunt would not have become the person in charge of the warehouse and household registration hall.

After the discussion, they waited for Zhou Zhendong to come and inform them that everything was ready, and then they started to head towards the Cheng family ancestral hall.

More than 300 people from the entire village went to the Hanoi area.
