Watch out Chicken

chapter 2

There is a certain kind of zen that you achieve when you do strenuous physical activity for a long time. My axe pierced through the trees, my saw made the board, my hammer set the nail, and my plane made everything flat, driven by the magical power of the cultivator, even if I was very weak. It was soothing and refreshing at the same time, and I must admit that I really enjoyed the strenuous physical labor and strength of ten people. My breath was the perfect rhythm, and my qi circulated around me. I feel so fresh and fresh!

That, and being able to tear the stump off the ground with just brute force would never grow old.

My first home was simple, one room, built in the first three days. It wasn't anything spectacular, but it would keep me away from the elements, and the insects in the bay, with thatched roofs and ground floor pounded. It was right in front of my chicken coop, so I could hear if there were any predatory intruders at night, but the foxes and wolves had not been aware of my disturbance, and the prey animals I had.

I am proud of what I have built.

I woke up to the call of my rooster, which I named Big D. A very childish name, I admit, but it amused me a lot. My young man would follow me during the day, jump around, and often sit on my shoulder, and declare his dominance to the world, insolent nonsense.

“Ayam-a-doddle-doo!” He'll squeal.

“You tell them Big D.” I will answer.

My hoe bit the ground and was never dull, reinforced like that by my qi, tearing it at more speed than any ox could produce. My chickens eagerly followed behind me, pecking at the insects and plants I dug up with my efforts, rebelling and squawking along the way.

Yes, be beautiful and fat, and you will be delicious in the future.

Ah, my mouth is watering just thinking about it.

Up and down the hoe, up and down the hoe, until I saw something. Strange roots poked out, and had a faint qi feeling about him. Interested, I took a thick and slightly inconspicuous root.

Raising my shoulders, I put it in my house, and went back to work. After this field, which will be my vegetable garden, I will start from the rice fields. It sucks that I haven't been able to get wheat, but what am I going to do?

That night, I enjoyed a really delicious egg-fried rice, with Big D sitting on my shoulder. It may be a bit unnatural, eating eggs right near your pet chicken, but he doesn't seem to mind. Eggs from my chicken, rice from my reserves, a little sesame oil that I drank when I bought my land, freed from any Cloudy sect. They taste so good. Slightly spicy, slightly sweet, slightly savory– I should definitely plant more. They are not too difficult to grow from Jin's memories. I just need to babysit them for a minute.

Sure, I can turn it into a pill, but I am very suspicious about all the pills being strangled by these people. I am half sure the reason why every cultivator is so crazy is because of all the medicine they do.

I break away from my introspection and listen to the happy clucking sound that comes from my “kapur”. Big D excitedly pecked at the little nubs from the spirit herbs I had cut that looked somewhat withered.

They probably won't kill him. Never heard of anything dying from eating these things before.

Uh, if she likes them, she likes them. Wouldn't refuse the little guy's food.

Soon, I climbed into my bed, with Big D jumping into the perch I made for him by the window.

Man, If I were still in the sect, I would be doing bad tasks, or sitting in a corner cultivating for months, rather than actually making items.

I went to bed happy and satisfied with my life choices.
