Chapter 117: Mastery of the Broken Blade Technique, Extraordinary Efficiency
“Swoosh!”…
"Pfft..."
Li Dingguo held a captured low-grade spiritual weapon in his hand, and with a flash of the blade, a tree in front of him that was as big as a bucket was quickly dissected into pieces of appropriately sized boards.
He had been reading a lot of books recently, and naturally had read the several sword-fighting secret books in the Wang family's library, including the Broken Edge Sword Technique that Zhang Xianzhong specialized in.
Even though it was a last-minute effort, after spending an entire night chopping down trees of all sizes with his knife, he had already mastered the Broken Edge Sword Technique.
Now, with the opportunity to obtain a large number of boards by using local materials and dissecting trees, after more than an hour of unremitting hard work, and practicing swordsmanship at the same time, the Broken Edge Sword Technique has unexpectedly reached the level of proficiency!
This is not surprising.
If you master one method, you will understand all methods. For him who is about to master the Thunder Spear Method, coupled with his extraordinary comprehension and mental strength far superior to those of his peers, it is quite normal for him to master an advanced swordsmanship after just a few hours of non-stop practice.
In the dazzling flash of the knife, a big tree that had just been chopped down by him was quickly trimmed by him, and then dissected into neat pieces of uniform length and thickness.
These boards have many uses, such as building the roof and walls of large wooden sheds, or making tables, chairs, benches, wooden beds, etc.
The plan to expand my team was implemented within these two days, which required a large amount of panels and other materials.
Fortunately, there are plenty of trees on this mountain range, enough to build a good base.
Li Dingguo enjoyed working and practicing with swordsmanship at the same time.
It has to be said that for a strong warrior, not only is it easy to learn these carpentry jobs, but his skills can also improve very quickly.
A warrior's eyesight, physical strength, control, memory, learning ability, etc. are much stronger than those of an ordinary carpenter.
As long as the warrior is not too stupid, his proficiency will increase rapidly if he studies these life-related skills seriously.
It is no exaggeration to say that Li Dingguo, who had only been busy for one night, had become a skilled carpenter.
Li Dingguo's current work efficiency is so high that ten ordinary carpenters combined cannot match him.
With the help of his long-lasting physical strength, each of his sword strikes was incredibly precise.
The spiritual weapon in his hand was extremely sharp. The blade flashed a few times and a piece of standard-sized board was formed.
Then he used the back of the knife to pick up the newly formed board, and it flew steadily onto the pile of boards on the side and was stacked neatly!
For a warrior whose overall physique far exceeds that of an average person, using him to construct structures such as large wooden sheds is simply a waste of material and could not be simpler.
Nearby, Hongmei and other nine newly-trained warriors were seen carrying large logs of uniform size that had been processed, placing one end of the logs into large pits that had been dug in an orderly manner, and then quickly filling and compacting the pits.
One by one, wooden pillars of uniform height were taken shape very quickly.
Pieces of planks of the same size were fixed to the periphery of the pillars after a few "pop" hammers by several warrior girls using sledgehammers and nails. A neat circle of wooden walls was also taking shape quickly.
The roof of the big wooden shed was also built very quickly and with good quality!
Hongmei personally participated in the positioning and took action. She took a few warrior girls with her to place some large logs, which were about three feet taller than the pillars around the wooden shed, firmly in the middle of each pillar.
After all the main beams were driven deeply into the ground and stood firmly in the center of two large rows of pillars, Hongmei took a sledgehammer, carried a bag of nails around her waist, and flew to the top of the main beam at the edge, standing lightly and steadily.
She took the straight logs that were used as roof beams from the warrior girls below and nailed them to the four pillars and the main beams.
They didn't stop until a long row of large wooden shed frames were completed.
Hongmei still stayed on the main beam of the roof, taking the uniform-sized boards that the two warrior girls kept handing over from the ground, and started hammering on them with a sledgehammer and nails.
She stacked the edges of the boards, nailed them to the beams and the columns on both sides, and built the roof at a very fast speed.
Because she has a warrior's long-lasting physical strength and agility, her movements are fast and light, but extremely efficient.
With her dazzling movements, a row of wooden houses began to take shape rapidly.
Li Dingguo had already planned the architectural style, and deliberately drew standard lines with lime on the ground of the valley.
The sizes of various building materials are unified, and warriors can build buildings quickly and efficiently. Even a simple large wooden shed, after being built, is not only elegant and beautiful, but also of good quality.
The wooden walls, wooden pillars, and roof are all of the same shape, neatly arranged, and windproof.
The plan is to build these large wooden sheds in a circle along the main road in the valley and on both sides of the large parade ground.
With the east and west exits of the valley as the center line, hundreds of large wooden sheds were built symmetrically on the left and right.
Once the construction is completed, it will be enough to accommodate about two thousand people.
The left side is for boys and the right side is for girls.
Next to the large wooden sheds on both sides, more than a dozen toilets and bathrooms should be built, separated for men and women on the left and right. Everything should appear orderly and everything should be formalized.
In the large open space in front of the two circles of large wooden sheds, several large wooden sheds are planned to be built specifically to be used as canteens, and men and women will still eat separately in the future.
With the concerted efforts of eleven warriors and twenty ordinary girls, these buildings were successfully completed.
Everyone went to collect some stones, sparsely placed them on the ground of all the large wooden sheds, and then laid boards on top. The first phase of the survival base construction finally came to an end.
If there is anything missing in the future, we can just supplement and repair it.
"Not bad!"
Li Dingguo looked around at the construction results of himself and his team and nodded with satisfaction. "Although these large wooden sheds were hastily built, they look orderly and practical." "Compared to the small village before, the living environment of those villagers is better."
"At least in terms of cleanliness and hygiene, it is far superior to those residential houses."
"Let's go have lunch first. Everyone hasn't even had breakfast today, so they must be very hungry."
After saying this, he led everyone and strode towards the big restaurant.
This large restaurant, which was the first to be completed this morning, is filled with tables, chairs and benches.
A large number of tables, chairs and benches here were made by Li Dingguo himself.
They were all simple and practical round tables and two-person stools, neatly placed in this large restaurant that was several meters in radius.
With his current super hands-on ability, it is not too easy for him to do all these things, and he can do them very quickly without any difficulty.
As early as half an hour ago, Hongmei ordered several girls with good cooking skills, led by Li Mei, to enter the large kitchen connected to the restaurant in advance to prepare lunch.
Seeing everyone arriving, Li Mei hurriedly took a few girls and started serving food and distributing it to everyone.
These girls were the ones with the best cooking skills when everyone lived in that small village.
The food they cook is getting more and more delicious.
It can be said that it is delicious and appetizing.
After lunch, everyone sat down to rest for about a cup of tea. Cao Yongxiang said, "Boss, the location of this very secret valley is relatively safe."
"From last night to this morning, we made such a big move, but I didn't find any danger during the time I was on guard."
"I went out on purpose this morning and checked around the area. I found that within a ten-mile radius, there were no other villages except the one we selected that was massacred by a group of evil spirits.
"As long as we clear out the evil spirits lurking in that abandoned village this afternoon, this area can be said to be deserted and uninhabited, which is very suitable for our team. We can hide in this mountain range to live, train, and develop quietly for a period of time."
He could not have imagined that the valley that Li Dingguo discovered accidentally was actually a rare place to train and hide troops. This was such good luck.
"That's good."
Li Dingguo nodded in satisfaction and said to everyone without hesitation, "We will set off soon. I will take Xiao Douya, Hongmei and the other nine warriors to complete their first actual combat experience!"
"We also need to bring ten large carriages with us. After we clear the village, we will also bring back the necessary supplies to increase the supply reserves of our base."
"Xiangzi."
Li Dingguo turned to look at Cao Yongxiang and said, "This afternoon, you are still responsible for taking those 20 ordinary girls to stay at home."
"You can also do some odd jobs as you see fit, so you don't get bored."
"Today evening, the two of us need to rush back to Dingbian City to avoid being targeted by someone with ulterior motives."
"There's not much free time left today."
Li Dingguo stood up and looked at Hongmei, "Hongmei, go get people to prepare ten large carriages immediately. Then use ten spirit beast war horses to pull them and set off together."
Following Li Dingguo's order, everyone who had just rested for a while started working again.
A quarter of an hour later, ten empty carriages were ready.
"set off!"
Li Dingguo took the large carriage pulled by the middle-grade spirit beast horse and strode out of the valley.
Hongmei, Xiaodouya and others hurriedly drove a large carriage and followed closely.
A team of fully armed men soon came out of this small mountain range and walked quickly towards the goal that they had abandoned halfway yesterday.
Including Li Dingguo, no one had yet learned how to drive a carriage.
After leaving the rugged mountain road, everyone sat in the driving seat and learned how to drive the carriage while rushing on the road.
Although we were all beginners, just like learning horse riding yesterday, we were at a loss at the beginning, but gradually we mastered some methods and techniques without any guidance.
After driving the large carriage crookedly for a few miles, they looked pretty good.
With the basic bonus of various abilities of warriors, it is relatively easy to learn this ordinary handlebar style.
"Cuckoo..."
Seeing that he could drive the carriage relatively steadily, Xiao Douya laughed happily, "Yesterday I learned to jog on a horse, and today I learned to drive a carriage. It's so much fun!"
Not only her, but also Hongmei and Li Dingguo, everyone has learned this life skill, and it is a relatively useful skill to drive a large horse-drawn carriage. Everyone is very happy.
In the wilderness, the ten large carriages were moving faster and faster, and in more and more uniform order, leaving behind a scene of laughter and joy.
I have to say that these little girls are really good at having fun. They can treat any life skill as something fun and find joy in suffering. This is also a different kind of happiness.
