Dual-wielding! 100x proficiency, I'll grind my way to godhood!

The village chief led Chen Mo and the other three to a small courtyard at the east end of the village, a few hundred meters away from the village, nestled at the foot of the mountain, where it was very quiet.

"This courtyard was recently built by me and the villagers working through the night. It was specially reserved for you. You can live here in the village from now on."

Thank you for your trouble.

Chen Mo looked around the small courtyard.

There are three main rooms and a courtyard. In the corner of the courtyard, there is a small jujube tree with a trunk as thin as a child's wrist, but its leaves are lush and green.

"Please settle in first, I won't bother you any longer."

After finishing his sentence, the village chief turned and left.

Qingzhu poked her head inside and turned it around.

"Wow, this house is so new and beautiful!"

Su Yue carried the cloth bag inside and reached out to touch the window frame.

It's very clean, with no dust.

Xu Wanqing stood by the window, pushed it open, and had a wide view.

In the distance, terraced fields stretch out in layers, the sunset painting the ridges golden.

Chen Mo closed the door and began taking things out of the copper ring.

"Simmons mattress, sheets, duvet cover, pillows, pillowcases, table lamp..."

He took out his things while reciting them, throwing one out as he recited it.

Qingzhu stood to the side, hurriedly taking the money.

Su Yue took the bed sheet and unfolded it.

The fabric was unbelievably soft, so slippery that it was almost impossible to hold in one's hand.

"Young master, what kind of fabric is this? I've never seen it before."

"Pure cotton."

Chen Mo placed the Simmons mattress on the wooden bed and patted it down.

"This thing is called a mattress. It's soft and won't hurt your back. You guys should try it."

Qingzhu climbed up using both hands and feet, sat down, and bounced up.

She screamed and grabbed Su Yue's arm to avoid falling.

"It moved! It actually bounces! This is so much fun!"

Su Yue was pulled and swayed a bit. She reached out and pressed the mattress; it was indeed soft.

Xu Wanqing watched from the side and also reached out to press it.

The mattress dented slightly, then slowly bounced back.

She glanced at Chen Mo, didn't say anything, but the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

The three women divided the work of making the bed.

Chen Mo leaned against the door frame, watching them busy themselves.

I'm going home tomorrow.

Qingzhu stopped what she was doing.

"Ah? Young master, isn't this your hometown?"

"No, my hometown is in a very far away place."

Qingzhu blinked.

How far is it?

"Very, very far!"

"What kind of place is your hometown, young master?"

Su Yue suddenly spoke, her hands still moving.

"It's a nice place. I'll take you there sometime."

He didn't say much, and the three women didn't press him for details.

Su Yue placed the last pillow, took two steps back, looked at it, and nodded.

When Chen Mo went to find the village chief, the sun was already almost setting behind the mountains.

The village chief was tidying up farm tools in the threshing ground when Chen Mo asked him to call over the most experienced farmers in the village.

Before long, a dozen or so old farmers were squatting on the threshing ground.

Chen Mo took out several cloth bags from his cloth bag and lined them up in a row.

"Uncle Zhou, these are rice seeds, the kind I gave you last time. They can't be used for breeding, but these can."

He then picked up another cloth bag.

"This is called a potato. It has a high yield, is drought-resistant, and can be grown on slopes."

An old farmer came over, picked up a potato, examined it from all angles, and muttered something under his breath.

"Can something grow on this lump?"

"able."

Chen Mo squatted down and picked up a twig to draw on the ground.

"Plant in sections, cut each piece into three or four pieces, leaving a bud on each piece. Place the buds facing upwards, bury them two inches deep, and space them one foot apart. Water them once after planting, but don't water them too much before they sprout, or they will easily rot."

The old farmers gathered around and squatted in a circle.

Chen Mo would draw a line and say a sentence; if someone didn't understand, he would draw it again.

How to soak and germinate rice seeds, how to cut and propagate sweet potatoes, how to fertilize corn... all explained in the simplest terms.

The old farmers listened with shining eyes, occasionally interjecting with questions, and nodding after asking them.

The village chief squatted down beside him, clutching the cloth bag containing the rice seeds in his hand, his knuckles white.

He didn't say anything, but with each word Chen Mo spoke, his hand clenched tighter.

They lived their whole lives relying on the weather for their livelihood, never knowing that there were so many intricacies to farming.

If we follow this planting method, Stone Village will truly be able to have enough to eat every year from now on.

After finishing his explanation, Chen Mo stood up and patted the dirt off his knees.

"Uncle Zhou."

Chen Mo turned around.

"I'm going back to my hometown tomorrow and will be back in about ten days. My three wives live in the village, so could you please look after them for me?"

"rest assured."

The village chief nodded.

"You are a great benefactor to our Stone Village. With me here, no one in the village dares to lay a finger on them!"

Chen Mo didn't trust anyone; he was just simply greeting the village chief. It wasn't that he was afraid the villagers would harm the three of them.

Xu Wanqing was at the early stage of the Inner Strength Realm, while Su Yue and Qing Zhu had already reached the fourth level of Body Refinement. The three of them were safe in the village.

He took out two bottles of bone-strengthening pills from his pocket and stuffed them into the village chief's hand.

"Keep this for yourself; it might help you advance further in your martial arts."

The village chief gave it a push, but it wouldn't budge, so he accepted it.

He tucked the pill into his pocket and patted Chen Mo on the shoulder.

"You go about your business, I'll take care of the village."

It was already dark when we returned to the wooden house.

Suyue was busy at the stove, while Qingzhu squatted on the ground tending the fire, her face covered in soot.

Xu Wanqing was wiping the table, the rag swirling around on the surface.

Seeing Chen Mo come in, Qingzhu jumped up, still covered in ash.

"Young master, dinner will be ready soon."

"Yes. I have something to tell you."

The meal was served: three dishes and a soup, all prepared by Su Yue.

Chen Mo spoke as he ate.

"I'm going back to my hometown. It's a long journey, and I'll be back in about ten days."

Qingzhu was stunned.

"Going back to your hometown? Isn't this your hometown, young master?"

Chen Mo shook his head.

"No. My hometown is in a very, very far place. I'll take you back to see my parents sometime in the future."

The three women fell silent for a moment.

Xu Wanqing was the first to speak.

"Then be careful on your way."

He spoke in a flat tone, then picked up his bowl and continued eating.

Su Yue nodded gently.

After dinner, Chen Mo took something out of his copper ring.

Rice, flour, cured meat, canned goods, vegetables, seasonings... they took them out one by one, piling them up on almost half the table.

"This should last you a while. Don't be stingy, I'll bring more when you run out."

He then took out several bottles of pills and gave two bottles to each person.

Qingzhu and Suyue are top-grade bone-strengthening pills, while Xu Wanqing is a top-grade Sanyang Guiyuan pill.

"The three of you must not fall behind in your cultivation. There are still many pills available; you must take them every day during your cultivation."

The three women put away the pills, nodded, and remained silent.

There were no other entertainment activities in this world at night, so the four of them washed up and went to bed.

The Simmons mattress was soft and bouncy, and Qingzhu buried her face in the pillow and rubbed against it again and again.

Su Yue's fingers unconsciously traced the texture of the bed sheet.

Xu Wanqing leaned against the headboard, quietly watching Chen Mo.

Lights out.

Just as Chen Mo closed his eyes, Xu Wanqing pressed herself against him from the left.

Her fingers slid down his chest, her movements bolder than the previous nights.

Qingzhu squeezed in from the right, hanging her whole body on his arm, and whispered.

"Young master, you're leaving tomorrow, so tonight we..."

Chen Mo thought to himself: It's over!

The three of them used a tag-team approach, taking turns to train, none of them willing to give in.

Chen Mo began his cultivation passively until he was exhausted.

The numbers on the system panel flickered silently in the dark, but he no longer had the strength to look at them.

By daybreak, they were all too tired to sleep.

Chen Mo opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling.

I moved, and my back felt like it had been ripped apart.

If I try to move again, my legs feel weak and limp.

He tried to sit up, but failed.

He stared at the ceiling, with only one thought in his mind.

You must abstain from sex for three days first!

"Rest...rest for a while before going back."

At noon, Chen Mo dragged his exhausted body out of bed, closed his eyes, and touched the portal with his mind.

It's black in front of you.

When I opened my eyes again, it was Hangzhou.

P.S.: The market hasn't been doing too well lately...
