Under the command of Feng Lebin, the remains of thirty Qingzhou soldiers were transported into the back garden.

"this……"

Jiang Chen felt excited, and his face became a little ugly. He took a few steps forward, walked quickly to Feng Lebin, lowered his voice and asked three times:

"Abin, why are the corpses brought in? Could it be that...the necessary materials for the Qingyang ceremony are these corpses? Aren't they our colleagues?"

Feng Lebin thought for a few seconds and gave a mocking answer:

"The power of Qingzhou soldiers comes from flowers, grass and trees, and will eventually return to nature. This is part of the cycle of life and death."

"?"

Jiang Chen was confused and slowly typed a question mark.

Feng Lebin had an unpredictable look on his face and said in a deep voice:

"Jiang Baijiang might as well try it himself? Carrying the corpses with them may have unexpected benefits~"

"All right……"

Jiang Chen was full of doubts, but he still chose to believe "Abin" and joined the team that carried the corpse. He carried a Qingzhou soldier corpse weighing nearly 200 kilograms and buried it in a pit.

Immediately afterwards.

At Feng Lebin's reminder, Jiang Chen found a large tree that was over ten years old somewhere in the back garden of the Hou Mansion, transplanted it and planted it in a pit.

"Tree burial?"

Jiang Chen thought about it for a moment. In his previous life, there was a similar funeral method with a long history.

"Book of Changes·Xici Zhuan" says: "In ancient times, those buried were heavily clothed and paid a salary, and they were buried in the middle of the field. There were no seals or trees, and there were countless mourning periods..."

"Book of Wei: Biography of Lost Wei" says: "When the Kingdom of Wei was lost...the parents died, the men and women gathered together and cried for three years, and the bodies were placed on the trees in the forest."

"Book of Zhou: Foreign Lands Part 1" also mentions the burial customs of the Moxi people, "The deceased is wrapped in thin reeds and hung on a tree."

With the development of tree burial in modern times, it mostly refers to burying the ashes deeply under a designated tree, or spreading the ashes in the soil, planting a seedling, and using it as a place for future generations to mourn, and hanging the deceased's inscription on the tree.

On a commemorative plaque, write your name and year of birth.

No grave head is left, no tombstone is erected, and only a small amount of land is occupied. Gradually, tree burial has become one of the most advanced funeral concepts and practices in the world today.

When Jiang Chen held the shovel in his hand and covered the pit in front of him with the last handful of loess, a burst of heat suddenly surged through his body, as if there was some kind of hidden energy...

Awakened!

"Hiss~"

Jiang Chen was overjoyed and immediately realized that these were the remaining medicinal properties of the three rare medicinal materials "White Bearded Cricket + Spring Breeze Wild Grass + Lightning Strike Peach Tree New Branches" remaining in the body.

The initial "scavenging ceremony" only completed the most basic digestion, helping the human body to transcend its physical limits and become transcendent and holy.

At that time, he vaguely realized that he needed to perform further to fully digest the energy hidden in his body.

And the time for further digestion——

It’s today! It’s now!

"Another body!"

Jiang Chen's heart was filled with excitement, and he took the initiative to stand up without being urged by others, quickly walked out of the back garden, and carried the body of a new Qingzhou soldier from yesterday's battlefield.

Digging holes, transplanting trees, watering, covering with soil... With the completion of a complete set of tree burial rituals, the heat flow in Jiang Chen's body suddenly accelerated.

Some kind of powerful force is about to emerge!

"Soon!"

As the carrying movements accelerated, Jiang Chen was vaguely aware of it, and gradually understood the rules of acting as a "scavenger".

Pick up discarded items, recycle them, and reuse them!

In the past life of China, there were millions of scavengers who worked hard to pick up discarded plastic bottles, cans, glass, and all kinds of sundries. They were eventually collected in recycling bins, sorted and distributed to various workshops, and these were processed through various processes.

Waste, turn waste into treasure!

This move has greatly reduced social operating costs and resource pressure. It is an inconspicuous but indispensable industry in the early stages of China's rapid development!

And it is the same in this world.

Any behavior that speeds up the recycling of waste will help the "scavengers" digest the medicinal properties.

As Feng Lebin said:

"The power of Qingzhou soldiers comes from flowers, grass and trees, and will eventually return to nature. This is part of the cycle of life and death."

finally,

After Jiang Chen completed his sixth tree burial, the remaining medicinal properties in his body were reduced by nearly one-third.

It was also at this time,

boom!

The medicinal properties that were successfully digested were integrated deep into the bones of his left arm in another form.

"Well..."

Jiang Chen groaned, feeling that his left arm seemed to have undergone some strange changes, and instinctively stretched out his finger.

Two or three meters ahead, a patch of weeds suddenly trembled slightly, and hundreds of weeds suddenly shot out and wrapped around the ankles of a certain Qingzhou soldier.

"ah?"

The Qingzhou soldiers screamed in surprise and raised their feet violently, but they were unable to break free from the shackles of those weeds. They exerted force several times before they managed to break them.

You must know that Qingzhou soldiers have undergone the strengthening of Qingyang rituals and are world-class weightlifting champions per capita. With such huge strength, they still need to exert force several times before they can be broken. It is definitely a very strong restraint ability!

If used during the battle, it may have a powerful effect that can determine the outcome of life and death and reverse the situation of the battle!

The Qingzhou soldier turned around angrily, only to see a couple of golden pieces of gold thrown into the air. He immediately gave up all dissatisfaction and said with a smile:

"Chief Jiang, good morning~"

Money can make you go crazy!

Jiang Chen was so happy that he decided to name this ability Blue Silver Grass Tangle...

Ahem,

Tangle of grass!

Jiang Chen had expectations in his heart and said secretly:

"I wonder what kind of wonderful abilities the other two medicinal materials will eventually derive?"

Feng Lebin raised the corner of his mouth and noticed the change in Jiang Chen's strength at a glance, congratulating:

"Jiang Baijiang is indeed extremely talented. In just a few days, he digested one-third of the medicinal properties and awakened his first martial arts talent!"

Jiang Chen was in a good mood and responded with a smile: "Thank you, Feng Baijiang."

Feng Lebin chuckled. He didn't know why, but as long as Jiang Chen didn't call him "Abin", he had the illusion that he had won, and he felt particularly comfortable:

"Following your sheep attack and killing the corpse demon, I have also gained a lot of benefits. Sharing some practice experience is just a little effort."

While talking and laughing, many Qingzhou soldiers had already buried the bodies of more than 400 comrades under the big green trees.

The tree burial is completed.

The Qingyang Ceremony is about to begin.

Gongsun Hu, Xiao Wu and other ten people filed out of the side hall, and under the guidance of the military judge, entered the tree burial woodland newly opened by Jiang Chen and other Qingzhou soldiers.

Not only that.

There are twenty other veterans who have met the qualifications for Qingzhou Fighter promotion, and they also entered the depths of the tree burial forest, and will jointly undergo the baptism of Qingyang Ceremony.

A trace of curiosity arose in Jiang Chen's heart, and he followed Feng Lebin to the edge of the tree shade, staring at Gongsun Hu, Xiao Wu and other "militiamen" who belonged to him from a distance.

In the tree burial forest, the military judge said coldly:

"Do you remember everything I just said?"

"Remember~~~"

The veterans shrugged and lazily agreed.

Gongsun Hu and other newcomers really looked like cute newcomers, and they roared at the top of their lungs:

"Remember!!!"

The military judge glanced at the group of veterans with dissatisfaction, then turned to praise the pink recruits:

"Good, very energetic!"
Chapter completed!
