Chapter 7 Autumn Rice Harvest

Spring goes to autumn, flowers bloom, and half a year has passed. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

In the past six months, Zishang and Murong Zhixi had less and less time to play like lit candles, and they stayed at home every day to practice martial arts and rest.

They were cautious every day, and they behaved more hard in front of their elders. At night, I ran to fetch the spiritual spring, applied it externally and took it internally, absorbed the spiritual energy, and did not fall asleep until I was exhausted.

After a long time, the aura that drained from the spiritual spring nourished the flowers and plants in the yard very luxuriantly. But fortunately, no one usually comes in to disturb them, so no one notices this phenomenon.

With half a year of spiritual energy nourishment and diligent efforts, Zishang stepped into the fivefold body refining realm in one fell swoop, and Murong Zhixi broke through to the peak of the fivefold body refining realm. The strength of the two is more in line with the title of "six stars".

For the progress of the two, the parents did not hesitate to give rewards, and Zi Shang's father, Ziyun, even rewarded him with his own cultivation herbs with gentle medicinal power, and took a day to personally guide him in martial arts.

Originally, Ziyun gave the flavored medicinal materials to Zishang, so that he could mix them in his own cultivation materials and absorb them slowly, but as a result, Zishang knew that he was foolish, and crushed the flavored herbs at one time, mixed his own cultivation medicinal materials, and used them to take a bath.

As a result, he wasted most of the medicinal power, not to mention, and was tortured for a whole hour, and his whole body was burned red by the medicinal power, like an iron man being burned by raging fire.

Fortunately, Zishang stubbornly survived, and suddenly reached the peak of the Fivefold Realm of Body Refining.

……

Osmanthus, harvest, fragrant garden, autumn equinox arrived. Speaking of which, these 24 solar terms were also compiled and implemented by Yinghao Group after taking power, which is also helpful for agricultural production.

The sound of frogs in the twilight is noisy, and this year's rice is very autumn!

It is another bumper harvest year, the thousands of acres of rice fields in Shigu Village have been harvested excellently, the breeze blows, the spike waves are surging, and the fragrance of rice and wheat is rolled up. As far as the eye can see, thousands of acres of fertile land are full of gold.

However, it was not muscular young men who wielded iron sickles and harvested ripe rice in the fields, but a group of young people who had not yet reached adulthood, and Zishang was among them.

At this time of year, there will be at least half a month of sunny days, so within ten days after the rice is ripe, the adults will let the children cut it, no matter how much they cut, after ten days the adults will go to the field to harvest, and then there will be no children's business.

Speaking of luxury, the farming skills of the people in Shigu Village can only be regarded as average, but because most of them are martial artists with good strength, their physical fitness is much better than that of ordinary people, so each family has planted dozens of acres of land, exchanging a huge number of acres of land for food.

Just like rice, even if the harvest is not good, it can be fed and clothed, and if there is a good harvest year, the grain is enough to eat for three or five years, and in the end, a considerable part of it is cheaper than mice.

However, the people of Shigu Village still maintain a good habit of frugality, if any family does not work well when cutting rice, and wastes more rice, they will be mercilessly "beaten" by their parents.

The sun was scorching, and waves of heat echoed in the fields. Zishang and other forty or fifty half-old little children bent down and buried themselves in the rice bushes, holding the sickle in their right hand and the rice stalk in their left hand, harvesting quickly, sweat spilling from their chins, really sweating like rain.

But they didn't stop, always wielding their scythes mechanically, their faces full of pain, their chests rising and falling violently, and breathing with a little difficulty.

Cutting rice is a physical work, and it is a good way for martial artists in the body refining realm to exercise, which can not only harvest the rice, but also improve physical fitness, killing two birds with one stone.

In addition, cutting rice is also a technical task, not only do they have to be quite fast, but they also have to ensure that as little rice falls off the ears as possible.

Dropping too much will be a "mixed double" by parents......

……

From the top of the heavenly dome, the sun gradually sets on the west mountain, and the sunset covers the sky, like a red and yellow cloth across the heavens and the earth.

The little kids, who had been tired for most of the day, stopped the sickles in their hands and began to gather the harvested rice together, pile them into dozens of stacks, and cover them with large tarps.

After packing everything up, the moon had risen high, the stars were twinkling in the night, and there were still some "single" frogs still chirping bitterly in the fields.

Zishang dragged his tired body and collapsed on the bed in his room, his body relaxed for a while, and he was so comfortable that he hummed.

In the middle of the night, the biological clock set for half a year made him open his eyes with difficulty, blink a few times, rub it again, pat his face, and slowly sober up a little.

Zishang poured a glass of water, and finally came to his senses, he cautiously opened the back door of the mansion, and after looking left and right to make sure that there was no one, he crept out and ran along the country road all the way to the foot of Shigu Mountain.

After a cup of tea, he came to the outside of the Immortal Cave from the foot of the mountain, turned his head to look around, and did not find Murong Zhixi's figure. After observing the surroundings of the fairy cave again, and seeing a few "fresh" footprints, Zishang knew that she had already come.

Because there is a difference in the time when the two wake up at night, and for the sake of safety, the two will no longer meet, and they will return immediately after taking the spiritual spring, and they are not allowed to stay.

So in half a year, they happened to meet more than ten times.

Zishang also stopped grinding, and reached into his waist with his right hand to take the gourd, but it turned out to be empty. At this time, he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to bring the gourd containing the spiritual spring, and he couldn't help but have a headache.

"Forget it, if you don't go back tonight, let's practice outside. The air at night is so fresh, and with this full spiritual spring, the cultivation effect must be good. Zishang thought to himself.

Tonight is cloudless, the stars are shining, and although it is already autumn, the beauty of the night sky is not inferior to that of a summer night.

Because Shigu Village is located in the center of the mountains, the climate is relatively warm, the crickets and gnats are still competing with each other at this time, and the sound of frogs in the field is still crisp, although it is slightly noisy, but it is also enjoyable.

Zishang lay on the spiritual spring and drank it in large gulps until his stomach was round and he couldn't drink it anymore. He sat down in front of the "Immortal Statue", took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and began to quietly absorb the aura.

Most areas of the land of Shenzhou are relatively thin heaven and earth aura, Shigu Village is located in a small central basin surrounded by mountains, the earth veins gather, and the aura is relatively rich, but the content in the air is less than 0.01%......

Therefore, it is necessary to refine the physique at the peak of the physical realm in order to feel and slowly absorb the aura of heaven and earth.

And the aura content in the spiritual spring is much higher than that in the air, almost 0.7%, maybe you are surprised that they can detect such a low aura content.

In fact, due to the relationship between the material composition system of the world, they are very sensitive to the aura of heaven and earth, just like the feeling of aroma, they have become accustomed to the concentration of aura in the ordinary air, but when they suddenly encounter a spiritual spring that is seventy or eighty times thicker than usual, they will be keenly aware of the difference.

When the spring enters the body, the temperature of the spring water is heated and increased by body temperature, and the solubility of the aura decreases, and the aura is released.

Of course, this is also because of the special nature of the spring water in the fairy cave, so it can dissolve more aura at more than ten degrees Celsius.

The rich aura in the spiritual spring nourishes and strengthens the remaining innate aura in Zishang's body, so that his ability to control the aura in his body increases, and at the same time, he can strengthen the muscles and meridians in a slight, but due to the small amount of innate aura, he cannot control these aura, so that they are free from the whole body.

This also leads to a considerable part of the aura being unable to be retained in the body and gradually lost.

When he felt that there was not much aura in his body, Zishang got up and put out the water, set aside the inventory, and continued to drink to his heart's content, then sat down to absorb it, and the cycle repeated.

Because Zishang is sitting in the wild, he is closer to nature, which has a certain amplifying effect on his control of the trace amount of innate breath in his body, although the absorption efficiency is still very low, but at least it still improves the speed, which makes Zishang very happy.

The night breeze was slightly cool, the fog gradually rose, and unconsciously, the flowers and plants were covered with tiny dewdrops, and Zishang's eyelashes and hair also gathered a lot, but he was immersed in "cultivation" and didn't realize it.

Until the eve of dawn, Zishang suddenly woke up and looked at the horizon in the distance, and there was already a faint dawn.

Although after half a year of penance, he was able to absorb the aura overnight, but by the next day he would be very tired, and yesterday he consumed too much and his energy was not good, so he still fell asleep.

Fortunately, I woke up in time, otherwise it would be troublesome to be discovered. Zishang took three steps and made two steps, ran home quickly, got into the bed, and slept with his head covered.

After about an hour, the door was opened, and every day at this hour, the senior executive's family would come and wake him up.

At this time, Zishang was different from an hour ago, the quilt was half-dragged on the ground, one foot was hanging on the edge of the bed, the other was on the pillow, his head was tilted to one side, and saliva was still hanging from the corner of his mouth......

The executives did not show a look of disgust, on the contrary, they were extremely distressed.

He sighed in his heart, "Alas, this kid has been really miserable recently, it's really hard for him, and it's really a little unbearable at a young age." Forget it, just let him sleep a little longer. ”

After the sun rose from the east mountain, it climbed to the zenith without stopping, and it was not until almost noon that Zishang woke up.

He stretched a big slump and sat up with great difficulty, and tried to open his eyes, but the glare of the sun closed his eyes that had just opened them.

"Huh, isn't it! It's noon!" the sober Zishang looked at the time and realized that he had to go to the field and have the task of cutting rice. He sprang out quickly, and was about to run into the field, when the shouts of the executive's family came from behind him.

"Young master, young master, don't go, they're all back, let's have lunch, and we'll go again in the afternoon!"

"Oh, Grandpa Gao, why didn't you call me! I didn't work all morning. Zishang complained a little unhappily.

"Young master, why do you have to work so hard? You are still young, if you have to compete with Zizhou and Zizhang, your body will not be able to stand it!"

"Alas, Grandpa Gao, I didn't compete with them, and I didn't want to exercise my body by cutting rice with high intensity, so that I could make a breakthrough in the realm and achieve the purpose of exercising!"

Seeing that the executive lowered his head and looked unhappy, Zishang also realized that he was really rude like this, and hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, Grandpa Gao, I spoke a little heavily." In the future, if I don't get up early, please wake me up, okay?"

Looking at Zishang's immature face and firm eyes, the executive suddenly thought of the vision of Zishang when he was born eight years ago, when the wind and clouds were dissipating and the showers were at the beginning of the break, he also figured it out and said:

"Alas, well, the young master is the son of heaven and the future of my big business, this bit of suffering may not be nothing to you, I am old and confused, you can rest assured, I will call you on time in the future!"

……

At lunchtime, Zishang ate two meals in one go, and after eating, he realized that he had made a huge mistake, and his whole body became more weak, and he was sleepy.

He had no choice but to rest for another half an hour, and when he had almost digested it, he took the sickle and arrived at the rice field belatedly.

After taking two glances at the piece of land he was responsible for, he was a big step behind the sub-axis and sub-chapter, and some of the people who were behind the sub-merchants before had also caught up with and surpassed him.

Zishang stopped grinding and rushed over in a hurry, chasing after others with all his might.

……

As soon as the ten-day period passed, the adults went to the field together, and the little children such as Zishang slept at home for a day and a night.

After another four or five days, the harvest was over, and the adults were busy stacking, drying rice, and threshing, and they were busy for almost half a month, before it was really time for the farm.

This year is a rare harvest, in order to celebrate, the villagers decided to take advantage of the agricultural slack to hold a harvest carnival, and also held a rare youth martial arts exchange meeting.

Zishang didn't dare to slack off and seize the time to break through the sixfold body refining realm, so that he could have the strength to meet the "rookie six stars", otherwise he would be laughable and generous.
