Chapter 131 – Heavenly Meteorite Iron
Chapter 131 – Meteorite Iron from Heaven
Xu Chuniang made a Dust Purification Technique, and saw all the dust and ash on the books, instantly cleared away.
Li Zheng on the sidelines to see the eyes are straight, secretly marveled at the immortal means of mastery.
However, he saw the Immortal Master gently pick up a book and flipped through it on his own.
Trying to read all of these county records was not something that could be done in a moment.
“If Immortal Master has any needs, feel free to call on me.”
After saying these words, Li Zheng left with a sense of humor.
Xu Chuniang looked through the county records, anything within the last two hundred years, she only hurriedly looked at it and put it aside.
It was only when she looked through the county records with a history of more than two hundred years that she looked at them in detail.
Finally, when she came across one of the county records, she found some eyebrows.
Xu Chuniang pondered for a moment, found out the previous book, flipped through it and compared it, and finally could determine that the changes in Yang County happened about three hundred and twenty years ago.
Before this year, Yang County’s annual grain production was quite generous, until the beginning of this year, when many crops died unexplained deaths, and production plummeted even more.
The problem must have been in this year.
Xu Chuniang picked up the county records of that year and carefully looked through them.
Her eyes landed on one of the pages.
“In September, when I was sleepless at night, I got up and paced the court, when I suddenly saw streams of light in the air, and then I heard a loud noise coming from the west, shaking the four directions, the cause of which was unknown.”
After searching through the county records of this year, I only found this suspicious sentence.
Xu Chuniang eyes flashed thought, stream of light, loud noise, could it be a meteorite iron stone from the sky?
It was a pity that the era was so long ago, even if she wanted to investigate, there was no way to do so.
However, it was mentioned here that the loud noise was coming from the west, so it is expected that if there really is a heavenly meteorite iron, it should also appear in the west.
Xu Chuniang put down the county record and decided to personally go to the west.
The appearance of extraterrestrial meteorite iron is often accompanied by heavenly fire, but this is already three hundred and twenty years ago, according to reason, it will not affect for such a long time.
Three hundred and twenty years was enough time to smooth out many things.
Perhaps there were other reasons as well.
Xu Chuniang traveled all the way west after leaving Yang County and didn’t find anything special.
However, she was able to sense that the further west she traveled, the more lacking the surrounding water aura became.
At the end of the day, there was even a complete lack of water aura.
Xu Chuniang frowned, this lack of one of the five elements was not unheard of, for example, the water aura around the spiritual spring was active and the fire aura was scarce.
The wood and earth auras in the spiritual field were extremely vigorous, and comparatively speaking, the gold and fire auras were not much.
It was just that this Yang County was located in the mortal realm where spiritual qi was thin, so why would such a situation occur?
Xu Chuniang explored the land back and forth several times, eventually narrowing it down to a valley.
The soil in this valley was black in color, with not an inch of grass growing, and the surrounding area was unbearably hot.
Only staying for a short while would make one’s heart feel bored.
More than three hundred years had passed, and the terrain hadn’t changed much. Nine times out of ten, this was the place where the extraterrestrial meteorite iron landed back then.
The Heavenly Meteorite Iron came from beyond the sky, but no one knew how they came.
Their texture is exceptionally hard, and they are often used as materials for making flying swords.
As long as one added a little bit of it when refining the flying swords, it could raise the hardness of the flying swords to a higher level.
If one were to classify the grades, the Heavenly Meteorite Iron belonged to the lower grade of the third level, and was a material of the Jindan Stage.
However, in terms of its rarity, its quantity was much less than that of other grade three spirit materials, and it was often unattainable.
Xu Chuniang naturally wouldn’t think that after more than three hundred years, that Heavenly Meteorite Iron would still be staying in place waiting for her to pick it up.
When the Heavenly Meteorite Iron appeared, it was naturally impossible for cultivators in the mundane world to be unaware of it. This kind of spiritual object would soon be taken away by a person who had the destiny to take it.
I just don’t know who ended up with this piece of meteorite iron. She had only come here to find out the reason for the imbalance in the aura.
Now that her search was fruitless, she naturally wouldn’t waste any more time.
After noting down the location of the valley, Xu Chuniang returned to the Press Prosecutor’s Office.
Before she reached the place, she saw from afar many people gathered outside of the Press Prosecutor’s Office.
Some of the people realized that Xu Chuniang had returned, and they all knelt and kowtowed to her.
“The wheat fields were drying up and were about to die, but fortunately, some days ago, the immortal master passed by and used his immortal magic to cast rain, which saved the wheat fields.”
“The wheat field is our lives, please still ask the Immortal Master to use his magic to cast rain and save us.”
“Please have mercy on the Immortal Master and save the lives of our family.”
Xu Chuniang never expected that her unintentional action the other day would trigger this scene before her.
She was instantly in some difficulty.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to make a move, it was really that the mundane world’s spiritual qi was thin, and the spiritual energy used a little bit less, and without the use of spirit stones or the Spirit Gathering Array, relying solely on vomiting to replenish, it would take at least ten days of work before the qi could be filled back up.
Yang County is not a large county, but under the jurisdiction of the village also has twenty or so, each village less than a hundred families, each family has a number of thin fields.
She alone could not take care of them.
Xu Chuniang shook her head, “I’m not an immortal master, I’m just a qi practicing disciple, and the so-called immortal magic is nothing more than a small art.”
The people were not willing to believe this, they only believed what they saw with their own eyes.
“I implore Immortal Master to save my life, we are at Immortal Master’s disposal.”
“As long as the Immortal Master is willing to give rain, we will repay the Immortal Master even if we become oxen or horses.”
“I beg Immortal Master to have mercy on us.”
Xu Chuniang sighed inwardly, even a Jindan cultivator couldn’t solve the problem, how could she, a small Qi Practitioner, do it?
Just looking at these people in front of her, each one of them was shapeless and skinny, but their eyes were full of hope, she ultimately failed to say the words of rejection out of her mouth.
“That’s all, you guys go back first, allow me to think of a solution. Just I can’t guarantee that I will be able to solve the problem.”
The people kneeling on the ground were a bit puzzled, obviously the Immortal Master could solve the problem with just a slight lift of his hand, why did he say that he couldn’t guarantee it.
But they didn’t dare to dispute the words of the Immortal Master, and kowtowed again towards what they thought was the Immortal Master to thank him before leaving.
When the people were gone, Xu Chuniang couldn’t help but hold her forehead.
She was already a cultivator, so she should have a heart of stone, but why did she still feel a sense of intolerance when she saw these suffering people?
Moreover, she had gone to the source of the drought in Yang County, but she hadn’t even been able to find out the cause, and there was no way to solve the problem.
The party should be rejected completely.
This is good, in vain to find a trouble.
Xu Chuniang lightly exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, really some bitter.
She muttered, “The purpose of the Press Investigation Division was to support the right path and understand the suffering of the people, so it’s only fitting that I agree to this. Forget it, tomorrow we’ll go back over to the valley to take a look.”
On the second day, Xu Chuniang arrived at yesterday’s valley early in the morning.
The valley was still as dark and silent as ever, and it was impossible to see anything at all.
After circling around the valley twice to no avail, she patted her head and decisively released Xiao Bai.
Almost forgot, Xiao Bai is a famous treasure hunting mouse, may be able to see something.
After all these years of cultivation, Little White’s cultivation had skyrocketed, reaching the sixth level of Qi Practicing.
Little White was excited when it was just released, but the next second it shuddered when it sensed a certain aura.
Then the little head was incredulous, looking in the direction of the valley.
