Exile opening: I won with the Universal Maker

Chapter 72 Catch the two thieves

Shen Yuexi took Yang Cong's wrist and finally stood on the boulder on the top of the mountain.

She took a breath and stood up with her hands on her waist.

Climbing is so tiring.If I had known it would be so hard, I would have stayed in the village and done farm work with everyone.

Now that there is a well in the village, everyone rushed to reclaim the land at the end of August, went to the town to buy a batch of seeds, and planted cabbage, radish and leeks and other crops suitable for autumn sowing.And Xiao Zhuo taught the villagers how to practice martial arts in the village square.

The whole Xiaogang Village is busy and thriving.

Shen Yuexi remembered that she was going into the mountains to look for iron ore before, so she eagerly mentioned it to Xiao Zhuo.

I thought that Xiao Zhuo would be worried about letting her go, but I didn't expect Xiao Zhuo to agree without blinking his eyes.It's a different person from before.

Most likely it was because the villagers were too busy training and couldn't take care of her.

She is not hypocritical, she pulls Yang Cong and leaves.Yang Cong is a local and knows everything.You can tell her a lot about the local situation.

There is a mountain two miles east of Xiaogang Village, and a road bypasses the mountain and extends eastward to Dongji Town.

Now the two are standing on the top of this mountain.

"Look, Miss Pei," Yang Cong pointed to the north, "go out from between those two mountains, and you will enter the territory of the Xirong people."

Shen Yuexi took a breath, raised her eyes and looked to the north.

It is said that there are two mountains, but they should actually be rolling mountains. A gap is located in the north of Xiaogang Village, as if the entire row of teeth is missing one.

"Mr. Pei led everyone to block up the mountain pass with stones and wood, so that the Xirong people would not be able to pass."

"Then they are going to climb the mountain?" Shen Yuexi was a little worried.

Yang Cong said with a smile: "The mountain road is full of gravel, which can easily hurt horses' hooves. The Xirong people would not do such stupid things."

Only then did Shen Yuexi feel relieved, squatting down to support the edge of the boulder with both hands, and jumped down.

"Miss Pei, what are we doing here?" Yang Cong jumped down, "It's almost noon, and there's nothing on this mountain."

After three months of drought, many plants on the mountain withered.There were no wild animals to hunt either.

Of course, Shen Yuexi would not tell her that she was here to look for iron ore, and said nonsense: "The garlic...capsule I made needs something special, and it may be available on the mountain."

She said as she walked down.

Yang Cong followed her, and said happily, "Miss Pei, what kind of garlic pouch did you make, does it really cure all diseases?"

"What cures all diseases, I didn't say that."

"Ah... That's what I told them when I went to the pharmacy in Dongji Town to deliver medicine."

Shen Yuexi shook her head.

It seems that Yang Cong can't be allowed to deliver medicine, and she doesn't understand, so she talks nonsense, making it look like a magic stick.If this goes on like this, no one from Xirong or Dayan will believe in the effect of this medicine.

She talks to the Universal Machine as she walks.

"Bear, make a cannon."

"Dear master, the raw materials needed for the cannon are being collected, the progress is 0.8%...1.2%...1.7%..."

The search range of the universal manufacturing machine is not large, she has to walk around to find possible iron ore.

She had a strong premonition that there must be iron mines in this mountain.

But in Yang Cong's view, Mrs. Pei was running around like a headless chicken.For a while I stood there thinking, and then I went in another direction.I don't even know what I'm looking for.

But she admired Mrs. Pei extremely.A well drilling machine made her admire it so much.

What's more, even Mr. Pei, the god of war in her mind, looked at Mrs. Pei with a big "obedience" written in his eyes!
So no matter what Mrs. Pei is doing, there must be a reason.

All she had to do was follow along.When you are hungry, take a pancake out of your pocket, take a bite of the pancake and drink water with the water bag.

The two walked all the way to a huge rock that was half the size of a house with half of the soil exposed.Shen Yuexi suddenly cried out in surprise.

"right here!"

Yang Cong's squirming cheeks stopped suddenly, and his head was full of question marks.

Shen Yuexi turned around excitedly and took off the stone pick from Yang Cong's back, raised the pick with both hands, and planed on the rock. With a sound of "Dang", sparks erupted from the rock, but the shock made her both hands numb, and even let go of the pickaxe.

This shock made her head buzz, like a swarm of bees flying around.

Yang Cong smiled and bent down to pick up the pickaxe: "Miss Pei, get out of the way, I can live this kind of life."

Shen Yuexi stood aside rubbing her hands.

The progress of the universal manufacturing machine suddenly increased by five percentage points here.This level of improvement can only be iron ore.This must be the part of the iron ore outcropping.

Now it's time to chip away at the rock and see what's inside.

Yang Cong was different from her, he swung the pickaxe round with both hands, and knocked down a large rock with the pickaxe down.In the broken part, Shen Yuexi did not see the characteristics that iron ore should have.

Is it an illusion?Obviously the big bear collected 5.00% iron.

A little disappointed in her heart, she felt backache and leg pain, so she found a clean place to sit down and told Big Bear to stop making.To Yang Cong: "Onion, give me the water bag."

Yang Cong put the pickaxe back on his shoulder, took off the water bag and handed it over: "Miss Pei, why do you look unhappy?"

Shen Yuexi was about to reach out to take the water bag, when she saw two figures turning behind the boulder.

There are two Xirong sergeants, one tall and one short.With a longbow on his back and a scabbard and quiver around his waist.

These two sergeants were Xirong's scouts, and they were sent to secretly investigate the situation in Xiaogang Village.After climbing over the mountain overnight, I went to the mountain east of Xiaogang Village, and slept behind this huge rock.As a result, Shen Yuexi's knock on the head woke them up.

Shen Yuexi's hands were numb from the shock, and the two of them were also very shaken.I couldn't tell what happened for a while, so I hid behind the boulder to observe.

After finding out that there were only two young women nearby, the two Xirong sergeants walked out in a big way.

"It turned out to be the woman of the two big swallows," the tall Xirong sergeant squinted at Shen Yuexi, "Since you know our existence, you two don't even think about running away."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to draw the knife.

Unexpectedly, he caught it empty-handed.The tall Xirong sergeant looked down, the cowhide scabbard on his waist was empty.

Where is the knife?
He looked at his companion, and found that his companion, like him, had disappeared.The whole person was also dumbfounded.

At this time, the two girls of Dayan had already fled away like flying.The good-looking one ran and yelled for help.

The short Xirong sergeant shouted: "The two of them can't be allowed to run away. Once they report to the police, they will be in trouble."

After finishing speaking, the short Xirong sergeant took off the bow on his back, drew out an arrow, and before he could put it on the string, he suddenly cursed, threw the bow and arrow to the ground, and chased forward with bare hands.

The tall man was confused and hurried forward to pick up the arrow.It was obviously much lighter, and it was only after a closer look that I realized that the arrowhead was gone.

Without the arrowhead, it is just a thin wooden pole, and it is useless to shoot anyone.

He threw away the arrow and took one out of his quiver, but there was no arrowhead. He threw it away and drew again, but there was still no arrowhead.

Could it be that these two girls stole their weapons while they were asleep, and then stole all the arrowheads?

The warriors of Xirong actually encountered two thieves from Dayan!

He looked angrily at the two women who were running away in the distance.Reach out and touch your ears habitually.

Sure enough, the pair of iron earrings were gone too.

This... this is simply a shame.

"Catch those two thieves!" The tall one roared, and also chased after him.
