"Xuanyuan City?" Zhang San looked at me a little stunned and asked in confusion: "There is nothing important in Xuanyuan City! The day you entered that 'Wilderness World', although a local gang besieged the 'Chiyou Tribe', there was nothing after that."

Is this true? I don't think so in my heart. According to the situation at that time, I don't think it's just a collective action of the gang, it's obviously aimed at the "Thirty-Six Small Cave Heaven". Also, the change in "Jiuli Mountain" where the "Chiyou Tribe" is located has already surprised me.

After knowing that I couldn't get more information from Zhang San, I became more and more worried. Maybe this time I really wanted to say goodbye to "Thirty-six Little Caves". I didn't find any of the "Iron Blood Information" I got from the "Iron Blood Newspaper" during this period. As a last resort, I decided to go to "Xuanyuan City" again and confirm the actual situation personally.

On the "Jiuli Mountain" outside "Xuanyuan City", I quietly entered the residence of "Xing Tian" under the night and saw the empty wall. Because I had expected this situation for a long time, I was not too surprised and searched carefully to find some useful clues. Unfortunately, there was nothing extra in the building except for some fragments of alloy locks.

I rushed back to "Xuanyuan City" and began to investigate the gang that besieged the "Chiyou Tribe" that day, but found that this group called "Xuanyuan Family" was just a small gang with hundreds of people that appeared recently. Two months ago, the "Xuanyuan Family" did not exist at all. Its rise was very surprising, especially the dozens of high-level players in the gang were even more amazing.

But I vaguely guessed that this "Xuanyuan Family" may have gained a lot of benefits from the magic of the "Thirty-Six Small Caves", and the players entering it have increased their strength. Otherwise, there would never be a new gang formed by many masters in the game. After reaching such a result, I rushed back to "Pangu City" after staying in Zhang Lan's "Koran Women's Clothing" for a while. Now it's time to carry out my own strength training plan.

Among all the methods I know that can quickly improve strength and physical strength, chopping is undoubtedly a good choice. Of course, to learn how to chop the materials, you must go to the old woodcutter outside the city to learn how to use the axe, and at the same time learn how to learn the skills of using force.

But when I came to the woodcutter's residence, I found that there were still many players there. In terms of dressing, most of them were novices, and of course some players of the same type as me. I was surprised that so many people wanted to become "woodcutters". The main income of "woodcutters" in the game comes from selling the cut wood to restaurants, restaurants, and blacksmith shops such as shops that require a lot of wood, or spend more than ten days burning a cellar of charcoal, then the gold coins they get will be more.

But it is not that easy to learn to "burn charcoal". It is said that first of all, you must have a formal life profession of a "wooden man". People like me who already have two formal life professions cannot become formal woodcutters. At most, they only learn the most basic skills of "woodcutters" and "cutting materials". Maybe they can't learn to "cutting materials" because of their own strength or other aspects, such as perseverance, lack of perseverance, or the old woodcutter himself dislikes you, etc.

Secondly, the skill of "cutting materials" needs to reach a certain level. It is said to be a master level. This alone can scare away many woodcutter players. However, there are many players who are not interested in the game of monster fighting or are tired of it. That is a real no-price deal. As long as you successfully take the wood as a woodcutter, you can get an axe for cutting materials given by the old woodcutter (compared to the battle axe, it only has a narrow axe face).

Looking at the arrangement formed by these players, I had to stand obediently behind the last player. The player named "Little Carpenter" saw someone behind him, and maybe he was happy that he didn't have to be at the end. He was obviously a novice and leaned over and asked quietly: "Are you here to learn how to cut materials?"

"Nonsense, otherwise what would I do?" I thought to myself, and I wouldn't say that. I nodded slightly and said that it was like that.

As if he didn't notice my coldness, the "little carpenter" said excitedly: "Have you heard it? A few days ago, another woodcutter cut a 'Shennong Wood'. The newspaper said that the guy sold a total of 800,000 gold coins!" As he said that, the "little carpenter" became intoxicated, as if he was the one who got the 400,000 gold coins.

But I was confused. What is "Shennong Wood"? One tree can actually be worth 800,000 gold coins! I didn't expect that after a month I left, so many good things came out. The "little carpenter" was curious and asked him about the details.

"Ah, you don't even know this?" The "little carpenter" looked at me with an exaggerated look and said, "Are you here just to learn how to cut the ingredient?" As he said, the "little carpenter" also made a "little carpenter" action vividly.

I nodded again, which triggered a loud shout from the "little carpenter". The people in front may have heard the content of our conversation, and ignored the obvious sensational behavior of the "little carpenter", and let him talk endlessly about a mythical story.

By the way, more than half a month ago, to be precise, it should be the third day after I entered the "Wilderness World". A woodcutter in "Shennong City" went to the mountains to cut down timber as usual. However, when he was cutting down a tree that looked no different from other trees, he found that he could only have a dozen or twenty axes to turn such a bowl-sized tree, but now he had only left a shallow mark after he cut down hard for more than a hundred times.

At that time, the woodcutter was very angry and thought that even a small tree like you was making trouble with me, would it be great? So the ruthless woodcutter kept cutting the trees. This cut lasted for a whole day, and even cut off several axes. However, when the woodcutter picked up the tree that had finally been cut down by himself to check, he found that it had an unusual name - Shennong Wood.

As long as anyone with a little history knowledge, it is definitely not a simple thing to have a tree named after his name. Even if you don’t know that the woodcutter who has lived in “Shennong City” for so long can think that the trees named after the name of a city are definitely unusual; you didn’t think of the connection between the two words “Shennong” and “Shennong City”, then the fact that he spent a whole day plus a few axes also showed the extraordinaryness of “Shennong Wood”.

No matter from any aspect, the woodcutter immediately knew the treasure of the "Shennong Wood" and immediately went to the "Tianxia Auction House" in "Shennong City" to auction this "Shennong Wood". Coincidentally, after two days of publicity by the auction house, there were two "mechanical masters" among the players participating in the auction. For the "mechanical masters", "Shennong Wood" is like a blacksmith who is as important as the best ore.

Therefore, after the initial careful test, these two "organizers" who also knew the importance of "Shennong Wood" began a fierce price battle after eliminating most players who did not know the specific role of "Shennong Wood". Because it was not the entire "Shennong Wood" (the correct way to cut "Shennong Wood" is to dig it up from the ground and the roots of the tree, so that the effect of "Shennong Wood" can be maintained without losing at all), one of the "organizers" eventually seized the ownership of "Shennong Wood" with 720,000 gold coins.

The direct result of this incident was that countless woodcutters flocked into the alpine forests around "Shennong City" to cut down trees. The scene was like a huge number of gold diggers pouring into the west of the United States. It is said that because the number of woodcutters was too large, the cut trees increased countless times. Now the recovery speed of the system is a bit impossible to keep up with the cutting speed of woodcutters. Some deep and dense forests actually exposed bare mountains. This situation was called "the madness of woodcutters" by "Iron Blood Information", which greatly affected a group of players.

The lucky player mentioned by the "Little Carpenter" just now also got a small complete "Shennong Wood" in a forest outside "Shennong City". This "Shennong Wood" was finally taken away by a "mechanical master" at an auction last week for 800,000 gold coins. This fact further proves the authenticity of "Shennong Wood", and thus attracts more woodcutters to look for such similar precious trees in "Shennong City" and other cities. Most of the players in front of me want to learn to "cut the wood" or become "woodkers" directly because of this reason.

Time passed slowly in the endless narrative of the "little carpenter". Because he told me this information, I no longer had the faint disgust of the "little carpenter" as a listener to the various information that kept popping up from the "little carpenter". Of course, many of them were like old calendars to me, and some were my news, and of course some of them happened within this month.

I also noticed one of the news, that is, even with the intervention of the government, the conflict between gangs still has some kind of upgrade trend. However, in this environment, the "Iron Blood Sect" and "Witch Alliance" in the game world are as stable as Mount Tai. As the first gang in the game, the former has an absolute advantage in terms of strength, system, or reputation, just like a king, no one dares to touch its edge; while the latter is a collection of all wizards in the Eastern Continent. With the mystery and strength of the wizards themselves, and its leader is the famous female player "Jade Girl Sword" in the game, no one dares or no one wants to be dissatisfied with it.

For other gangs, there is absolutely no benefit to forming enemies with the "Witcher Alliance". If you win the battle between the two, you will be criticized for bullying women, which is unwilling even if you are usually arrogant and domineering gangs. Furthermore, with the strength of the "Witcher Alliance", the possibility of failure is also very high, and you will suffer even more. If you are defeated by a gang led by a woman, what kind of face can you have? You won't have to mess around in the game in the future.

So when other gangs are in chaos, only these two gangs are as stable as Mount Tai. The "Iron Blood Sect" is certainly developing actively and steadily, vigorously carrying out various "gang tasks", gaining "gang reputation", uniting oneself and striving to move towards the goal of "town".

The "Witch Alliance" also successfully repelled the "monster attack village" twice under the leadership of the "Jade Girl Sword". In these two "monster attack villages", the "Witch Alliance" showed its powerful strength, allowing all gangs to automatically classify it as the category that cannot be offended. Now the "Witch Alliance" is actively preparing for the last "monster attack village".

The meaning of the tone of "Little Carpenter" should be that this time "monster attack on the village" is not simple, because "Tianxia Game Company" also operates it as a hot topic. However, "Jade Girl Sword" is obviously much smarter than us, or has learned from our painful experience and officially signed a contract with "Tianxia Game Company" to clearly state the interests of the "Witcher Alliance" and clearly, it is said that it can get at least 20 million yuan in total income. This is much better than us. I think "Kongkong'er" should be so angry about this.

When a chaotic situation was formed between the gangs in the Eastern continent, the Knights in the Western continent were not much better than us. Although they advocated the use of negotiations to solve problems, there were actually various open and secret struggles, but on the surface they seemed harmonious and extremely hypocritical. This is the final comment of the "little carpenter". Thinking about major Western countries in the real world, as well as countries that tend toward the West, such as South Korea, Japan, etc., I nodded in agreement with this view.

Finally, it is the turn of "little carpenter". As a profession closely related to the profession of "woodenman", "carpenter" can be said to be the twins of "woodenman". Many players choose the two life professions of "woodenman" and "carpenter". The former can cut wood and make money, while the latter can process wood into various useful furniture and sell it to shops. If you want to become a "carpenter", you must understand the most basic skill of "cutting wood". So on the other hand, "carpenter" seems to be an advanced profession of "woodenman".

"Well, your name is 'little carpenter'?" The "old woodcutter" who was smoking a dry tobacco looked up and looked excited and asked indifferently.

"Yes. I want to be a woodcutter and then become a carpenter!" "Little Carpenter" replied seriously.

After taking another sip of dry tobacco, the "old woodcutter" looked carefully at the whole body of the "little carpenter" and nodded and said, "It's okay, the strength is a little less, but you can become a woodcutter with just working hard. As for the carpenter, after your woodcutter's craftsmanship is passed, I will recommend it to the "old carpenter"."

After saying that, the "old woodcutter" put away his tobacco pipe, took out a slightly rusty axe from his wooden house, walked to a thick tree, and said to the "little carpenter": "Since you are willing to become a 'woodenman', I will demonstrate for you. Look, I will only do this action of cutting materials once, and I can learn as much as I can!"

Just as the word "Shao" fell, the rusty axe in his hand drew an arc in the air, cutting into the tree trunk as if it was slow and fast, and quickly penetrated out from the other end. In this way, he actually cut the big tree into a pair of threads. This kind of strength may not be achieved even if I use the "Pangu Tianjian Art".

A breeze blew, and the big tree that was passing by the axe fell down, scaring the "little carpenter" beside me, but then there was a look of excitement.

And the "old woodcutter" seemed to have done something no big deal, handed the axe in his hand to the "little carpenter" and said, "Hold this axe, you will become a great 'woodcutter'! Remember, only persistence can lead to success. Now, go."

Just next to the "little carpenter", I clearly saw that the moment the "little carpenter" took the axe, a faint image of a "woodenman" appeared on the coarse cloth clothes on his chest. It looked somewhat similar to the "old woodcutter" in front of him, but he was only a few decades younger.

After getting the axe, the "little carpenter" greeted me and ran away excitedly. It was probably to try the effect of "cutting materials". I lamented in my heart that the "little carpenter" was doomed to fail, and I took a step forward and was about to speak, but the voice of the "old woodcutter" had already reached my ears.

"Hey, aren't you that hunter ink? Why did you come over to learn "cutting materials"? Do you also want to change your career and become a "woodsman"?" Although your voice is still old, it no longer has the kind of master style that I had before.

I really couldn't turn around for this sudden change of "old woodcutter". Seeing the stunned look, the "old woodcutter" was slightly stunned, but immediately realized it and said: "I didn't expect me to be a real NPC, right? Hehe, I've learned that way for a long time just now, and I really scared many new players. I didn't expect you to be scared. It's worth it!"

I finally recovered from the rough language of "Old Woodman" and smiled and said, "I really didn't expect that the identity of "Old Woodman" was also taken by real people. Game companies can completely use smart NPCs instead, which isn't that saving money?"

"Oh, you don't know!" The "old woodcutter" sat on the stool, patted the bamboo chair beside him and signaled me to sit down, saying, "Originally, all in-service NPCs like this use smart programs, and the effect is also very good, and they can make almost all judgments. However, since the last system upgrade, the company held a conference, saying that it would introduce humanization in the game. Just like just now, I just had to give the axe to the novice, but according to the company's requirements, I wanted to perform myself to make the novice more interested in this profession. This is also a trick to attract them."

"So can you really practice the move you just now?" My mind was still constantly replaying the process of "Old Woodcutter" using that move just now. If I could do this level by learning "cutting materials", it would be of great benefit to my strength and my own "Pangu Tianli Technique".

"It's true." The old woodcutter took a sip of dry tobacco and said, "But that's the ability that only 'cutting' reaches the master level. Compared with other skills, it's very difficult to upgrade the skill of 'cutting'. In addition to constantly practicing, you also need to have your own understanding. By the way, the game is now full of things that your 'sun-shooting bow' is ruined. What's going on? Can you reveal it?"

I, who has a good impression of the "old woodcutter", explained the story in detail and finally said: "This time, the harvest is still good, that is, the 'Earth Blade' cannot be used, and I don't know if I can learn earth-based mana."

"Brother, can you not ask too much? Are you not satisfied with the most powerful 'sub-artifact' in the game? Then how can you work if you are someone else? At least your brother is much more happy than me and can play around, while I repeat the same job every day, and I am so depressed. I really want to stop doing it this way and follow you to do a career in the game!"

I didn't take what he said seriously, but just comforted me: "Don't say that, your salary is stable, and the money I earn is taking a lot of risks. However, if you are really tired of it one day, come to me. I will still be able to take you a newcomer to play games!"

Afterwards, I once again experienced the master style of the "old woodcutter". Although I was a little puzzled about how he could cut off a big tree so easily, I still successfully learned this skill. According to the "old woodcutter", although my strength and physical strength are only medium, my whole body and bones are OK and I should be able to achieve something. As for how he judged it, the "old woodcutter" just pretended to be incredible and smiled without saying a word.

In this way, after saying goodbye to the "old woodcutter", I added a woodcutter's skill in my attributes - cutting materials, which is of course only at the primary level. Since I have decided to exercise through this method, I immediately drove to the lush "Tianshan Mountains" and found that "Savage Valley". After easily solving a few savages who came to harass me, I began my own woodcutter career.

The "Savage Valley" is full of trees that are dozens of meters tall. I don't know how trees are divided into grades, but generally speaking, the taller the trees, the higher the grade. Of course, the exception is like "Shennong Wood".

At the beginning, I, holding a slightly rusty axe, always unconsciously followed the action of the "Pangu Sky-Cracking Art" and even unconsciously used the "Qinglong Battle Aura". For this level of attack, these bare trees fell down one after another, but I did not have a trace of happiness for success. You must know that I am here to exercise my strength, not really just to cut down trees.

In the following time, I deliberately restrained the "green dragon fighting spirit", and at the same time, the tree cutting action was just a simple "cutting" from the "old woodcutter". The initial results were very miserable. I, who simply rely on my own strength, did not have specific experience in cutting trees, not only did my hands and even arms numb by the anti-shock force of the axe, but also because I could not aim at one point, so I usually took more than a hundred strokes to barely cut down one tree.

However, as time goes by, I gradually mastered some skills of cutting trees, such as not being able to hold the handle of the axe with all my strength when cutting trees, and leaving a little extra force to prevent reaction; and also where to cut the tree to save the most effort, and at the same time, it will not cause the cut down tree to suddenly fall down and hit myself... In short, now I know that there are many principles to follow in this simple tree cutting. The most important point is that if you cut down along the texture of the tree, you will save a lot of effort, which reminds me of the deeper development of the weak point attack when attacking monsters.

After I finally finished the tree cutting operation for most of the day, I successfully upgraded the skill of "cutting materials" to the intermediate level and also harvested nearly a hundred big trees. Of course, they were all cut into pieces by me, and they were included in the "Qiankun Ring". Maybe they could be sold for a good price.
Chapter completed!
