Chapter 242. Valley
This kind of excited feeling lasted for a long time.
However, no matter how excited they were, they had to wait, unless they could endure the hardship of walking for more than a dozen hours in the icy world, enduring the cold that pierced their bones.
Having found a suitable place, there was no need to be in a rush, and no need to hurry out.
They rested at home for a full two days, thoroughly recovering their strength.
After resting a few days, Hua Chengtian couldn’t sit still anymore. Such a big valley left in neglect made him feel distressed just thinking about it. Since there wasn’t much to do at home, he planned to take more people to the valley to organize, and then camouflaging a bit.
Even though no one had been found, it’s always better to be safe than sorry. Qinggu Mountain is so vast; who knows, there might be people on other mountains, and if someone else takes it, it would be crying without tears.
So after resting at home for a few days, thoroughly replenishing their strength, on the fourth day, they set out fully armed again with a hundred or so strong laborers, carrying enough supplies for ten to fifteen days.
This time, since they would be out a bit longer, Big Brother Hua stayed at home while Second Brother Hua and several cousins went with their father.
Big Brother Hua almost guarded the family cave daily, spending most of his time practicing martial arts besides reading, and spent the rest of the time with grandpa crafting and polishing parts for crossbows, preparing for future safety in the mountains.
Meanwhile, in the Big Cave, Hua Tie hadn’t been idle. He and several young men started a forge in the cave, revisiting the blacksmithing skills he learned in his youth.
