Lunar New Year
This time, I was confident that I would get the Thousand Year Lunar New Year. Even so, my shaman is clearly more advanced than the second death, and I have saved for 3 years as a token, and this time I came to sulfuric acid regardless of any other silver. There was nothing particularly disturbing to me.
Moreover, during his missions at the Public Affairs office, he obtained a lot of maps of sulfuric acid and geographic information. If this fails, I have been meticulously prepared for the last three years.
Reason for trying to eat a thousand year old snowflake so close to obsession. It is because the moment we make the thousand year old snow into mine, we can definitely surpass the highest number, not wander under the top class anymore.
Being a master is not uncommon in this world. They were told that there were not more than five hundred people in the vast middle country, that the population was tens of millions, that their power changed the world, and that they were funny Muslims who gained wealth and honor. They say that they have seen the best masters in the world, but they are often mistaken for the best. The best masters are often said to be harder to see than centuries old.
What will happen to my life when I feel powerful?
I imagined myself enjoying more than waiting.
I carefully prepared the mountain climbing ( ) and food preparation to explore the thousand year old snowflakes in sulfuric acid. And the map of the sulfuric acid interior rods obtained was used to ensure the direction to be explored.
There are seventy-two rods of sulfuric acid, but I will only explore thirty of them. Because it's clear that there are 24 peaks on the outskirts and 12 peaks near the sulfate wave should be excluded. Since there were six rods to be the base of the sulfuric acid wave, we can also explore 30 peaks.
Of course, it was 30 horses, and each one was a rugged mountain, more than six hundred horses high. If I think it will take at least a month to search every mountain, my journey will take at least three or four years. Maybe a decade later.
'Hm. It could take 10 years. It's cheap to get a thousand years' worth of snow. '
I was determined to eat my heart out. I made a commitment in my heart that I wouldn't give up no matter what.
The first peak search started the day after we arrived under the sulfuric acid. I left my bot in a nearby guestroom and started climbing with some climbing gear on the sulfuric acid. We had to go into the mountains to see the mountains, except for India. Naturally, there were a lot of places that were out of reach of people, so I had a great time and effort from the first day.
After the search for the first day, I was quite tired and returned to the guest cup. I tried to take a deep sleep in the guest glass, but I couldn't sleep. It's because he searched the mountains all day, but he had almost no income.
'The efficiency is poor. If you go around the house, you can't shorten the line.'
You don't have to go around the perimeter. You have to look inside the trunk. I walk at least 30 miles a day, but if I go back and forth, I'm wasting my time.
Then it is better to live in a hut or a house in the mountains.
I started to build a hut at the entrance of the sulfuric acid inner rod the next day. It was easy because I had already built a house once. First, you get the wooden column that is the frame of the house, then cut it to the appropriate size and place it underneath. And you can put things that have the characteristics of avoiding rain or dew on the roof.
It was crazy to build a house or a hut by myself, but I learned a lot when I was working as a representative while I was close to the foremen who built the building. Even at home, you can build with your stamina and strength as long as you are satisfied with the basics.
It was about four days after I finished the house. I felt like I was tied to building a house all day. Nevertheless, it was not a good shape, but it was just enough to avoid rain and dew. He had straw on the floor and, of course, heating was impossible. They didn't even build a kitchen.
But this is good. I've had a lot of hard times in my life, so you can gradually improve while staying here at the Node. The important thing now is to find a thousand year old snowflakes, so whether or not my place is comfortable is a secondary problem.
Once the house was set up, I began to explore in earnest. If I needed food, I bought groceries from the village or bought them in a guest cup for money. If I wanted to wash, I washed in a nearby stream - if I didn't want to spend money, I ate a small wildlife nearby. The guest owner initially tried to report me to Guanyin because he thought I was crazy, but it seemed to convince me that I was just trying to live in the mountains from childhood.
About two months after you started exploring.
I had a rough look at four of the 30 interior bags of sulfuric acid. It was a very difficult task to thoroughly search the four mountains, but I managed to survive on my own speed. Surprisingly, even though the time to do internal air training was only one hour per day, I felt that the internal air was more firmly attached to the blood vessels because I was walking hard every day ( ).
Around that time, the money I had saved up for three years was half gone. At this rate, I was completely broke in the next few months, so I thought about what to do next. And after considering it for a long time, I came to a conclusion.
"Let's get to work."
We cannot completely disconnect from the world. I am not a natural hunter, and there are limits to eating and living wildlife in the wild. Apart from being a shaman, hunting animals is a very physical and painful process. I felt the need to make money to buy groceries somehow.
Fortunately, in the words of the guest owner, what I had to do was decided.
"You live in the mountains, right? Then cut down the tree and bring it to the lumber mill. If it's them, they'll buy you a tree."
The guest cup was as the owner said. Since the trees of sulfuric acid were good quality and useful, there was a wood shed set aside in the village. In the woodshed, people primarily process trees and supply them where they need to be. I made a deal with the lumber owner and took an axe and began to cut down the trees the next day.
Of course, it was easy to cut down the trees, but since it was another task to move to the Timber Mill, it was enough to cut down two or three trees. The lumber owner was frightened just by cutting down a beautiful tree.
If money is needed, the timber is cut down, and the rest of the time is repeated day after day simply training in the air or searching for sulfuric acid. I felt like I was gradually getting used to my daily routine while living in the mountains.
It's been a year.
I was searching for the ninth peak and still couldn't see the thousand year old snowflake. In terms of progress, we've only been here for about three hours. It was just what I expected, so I was relieved.
The guest owner used to talk to me when he saw me.
"I thought you used to be a Blader. What's the reason for a young man to go into sulfuric acid?"
"I just hate people."
"Haha..."
The guest owner pulled out his tongue. I was just smiling.
It's not wrong to hate people. I want to avoid being widely known or unnecessarily noticed until I find a thousand year old snowflake. It's best to live quietly and try until the day we find the Thousand Year Old Snow.
It's been three months.
It rained a lot, and the house was destroyed. I rebuilt the house, but this time much bigger than the last one. It is expected to be long term, and it is often very cold when there is rain or wind. This time, I decided to try to block the wind as much as possible by building up to the wall.
Three months later.
The village was devastated by the cold. The peasants were wearing death awards and the peasants were embarrassed and the town was in a bad mood. As people were struggling to make a living, I couldn't make money by bringing timber to the woodshed. The competition in the woodshed was also related to farming, so it was obvious that outsiders like me were making money. So for a month, I had to hunt snakes, boars, and deer and eat them.
Then I made a bow and began to use it. You can kill wildlife with a sword or spear because you learned how to do it without using a sword, but you also felt that the bow was easy. I was hanging off a wooden bow, but I enjoyed using it because it was quite lethal.
And -- just two years into sulfuric acid.
I had only just found out that I had explored 16 peaks. It was slightly slower than expected, but I looked for more than half of it. After a while, I bought a drink from the village and took a deep breath in the chow house.
"Ugh... Damn it..."
I was drinking for the first time in my life. I felt like getting drunk because I was frustrated. So far, reason has remained complacent.
"[Where the white lotus blossoms together?] There's no place like that!!"
I haven't asked anyone yet for a clue, like this one. It was because I wanted to avoid looking for things that someone else was interested in. But it was a situation where finding just that one sentence hit a mental limit.
Now my body was fully grown and my beard had grown quite well. I felt like I was running out of patience because I might have to search for a few more years. I even felt depressed when I was sober and panting.
'No. Now we have to ask around and find out. We've searched 30 peaks at this rate, and if we don't get results... we can't hold our spirits.'
Let's stop fooling around.
With this level of exploration, my search speed is higher even if someone is interested and starts browsing. Even though I was a little suspicious, I decided to go to the villagers or the surrounding village to ask. If I didn't feel bad, I was strong enough to die.
The first question was the guest owner.
"Huh? Have you ever seen a black lotus flower?"
The guest owner tilted his head. He thought for a moment as if he knew.
"I heard it was raised by some monk!"
"What monk?"
"I don't know. I think I just heard it."
The next question was the lumber owner. In fact, the guest was the best person to come out of the village under the sulfuric acid with the owner.
"Black lotus flower... to be raised by a monk... I think I've heard that one before."
The owner of the lumber shop pondered and said,
"That's probably the story of the whitener. Just because the governor grew up there, there was a rumor going around for a while, and I think people were just watching. But that black lotus... it was just black, and people came down disappointed because it was nothing."
"I see."
"The White Swan is on the White Swan Wand."
I felt like my name was White Tiger because I was in the White Tiger Bar in the first place.
I was devastated by the thought of asking if I could catch a clue so easily. But when I think about it - it's been two years since I started living in sulfuric acid, so I think I have no doubt about it. If I had just come in here and asked you about this, someone would have happened to be interested in my work.
In fact, the owner of the guest house or the owner of the lumber shop did not even care about answering my questions. There can be no doubt about it.
I've located the White Tiger and headed for the White Tiger Wand. The White Cliff was one of 14 peaks that I had not yet dug up. The distance was more than 40 miles, but I walked and walked again and again to get to the bottom of the White Cliff.
From now on, you can explore the White Cliff.
'But first, shall we meet the White Death State?'
I think it would be better to see the Black Lotus flower, which is raised by White Tiger. After thinking that, I climbed the stairs to the White Tiger and met Lord White Tiger shortly after. The Baekhwan was not a particularly skilled worker, but just an ordinary old man.
He was old enough to go into the coffin right away. Seeing you shake your shoulders and hands, it seemed like you were suffering. If I had come a little later, I would have gone to that world.
"You... said you... wanted to... see... the Black Lotus...?"
"Yes. I heard it was a very unusual flower..."
The White Tiger Lord smiled faintly.
"That's... unusual... I brought that flower... from the snow..."
Snow!!
'No way?!'
"A... decade ago... on the road... I lost my foot in the valley... and it was so... snowy... that I was safe... there was a pond in the snow... and a lotus blossom in the pond... and it was all... gone... day..."
"Is that why you brought it?"
I felt excited as I said to give it to him.
"I... brought... lotus seeds... day..."
"Where is the snow?"
"I don't... know... a lot of fog..."
Fog?
"Sir, please come out now. The governor is not feeling well..."
"I see."
A monk performing at the White Tiger pulled me out. When I asked them about the Black Lotus, they took me to the back. Behind me, there was a black lotus blossom as I had heard. I said as I watched the slimy black lotus flower.
"Only black lotus flowers here."
"Lotus flowers are usually white, but they're a little strange. But the roots and leaves of this black lotus flower are good for the body, so we often eat this."
"I see. Didn't you find the valley the governor told you about?"
"There was no reason to look. Although it's a strange terrain, sulfuric acid is a very spacious place. You don't have to go looking for one."
Seeing the monks' faces, it seemed to be true. They are just monks who hide in the mountains and practice everyday. It seemed like something was interfering with the Muslim conspiracy, so it was a slow development. But the less inconvenience, the better, so I rolled my head.
'Based on the White Cliff, the snow is sure to come out. A thousand years of snow must have something to do with it!'
My search has resumed.
This time, I will definitely find the Thousand Years Old Moon Spirit within a year!
It's the only thing that's kept me from living a bad life. Moreover, considering how hard I've been living in the mountains for the past few years, I was able to break my teeth.
Find.
Find.
I must... eat for a thousand years!!
"Ahh… ahh…!!"
I gave a shout.
Today is three years and two months after entering sulfuric acid. It was over a year since I started digging based on the White Cedar. I searched the hillside of the Longevity Monk, which is much farther away from the White Cliff, and I found oddly twisted cliffs, cutting through the vines and branches.
And now.
In front of me was an open snow white. The strange terrain formed at the back of the valley was a spherical topography in which the Yin Qi had been condensed all year long, so the air in the air was rapidly cooled and was winter throughout. A place where snow never melts.
I can see the pond the governor told me about.
Just like I heard, [where the white and black lotus blossoms together].
'Oh... not yet. Just a little more...!!'
I gripped my teeth and drove through the snow, enduring the cold. I swept the snow around the pond. Then, I found a strange snowless cave. It was a cave big enough for two or three people to enter, so I calmly walked in.
In the deepest part of the cave is another snow field. And there was something big in the midst of the sunlight reflecting off.
Its shape is as big as a human forearm.
The white crescent that was only heard is flowing on the outside.
"Aaaaahhhh!!!"
I screamed as I screamed.
Then I got down on my knees and wept.
"I tried!!!!!"
Three years and two months.
Exactly six years after your previous life -
I found the thousand year old snowflake I was aiming for.
