Chapter 49: The Mine and the Medicine Garden
When Xiao Wu arrived at the medicine garden in the north, it was already dark, and Xiao Wu didn't want to take the coffin to see it, so he only asked where the account books and documents of the spirit mine and the medicine garden were, so the old man took Xiao Wu directly to a nearby wooden building, and brought the reserve book in the valley according to Xiao Wu's request.
"Why is there such a small inventory?" Xiao Wu only looked at the last record of the booklet and asked, this is too little, has it just been taken away?
"The elder doesn't know that this place has always been supervised by the Qingmo Village in the east, and there will be an overseer elder to collect the output once a month. The old man replied hurriedly.
"I see, by the way, has this place ever been infested?" Xiao Wu nodded and asked again.
"The villain has never been disturbed in the past ten years, and there are two big villages on both sides of this place, which is still a relatively stable place. The old man replied in the affirmative.
"It's done, that's it, don't go anywhere else, you go down. ”
After the old man left, he got on the ink jade treasure inkstone and flew to the foot of the northernmost peak in the valley, where the terrain is the highest, overgrown with hundred-year-old trees, it is the edge of the diamond stone valley, because behind it is a Linjiang Jun Mountain, which is not only tall but also precipitous. Xiao Wu dropped the magic weapon on a slightly empty flat ground, opened the lid of the coffin after putting the coffin down, and found that Kou Yuhuan was still asleep at this time, so he didn't wake her up but turned to look into the distance.
The closest to this place is the elixir garden, there is a faint light on the attic next to it, the old man Liu Qiang is stationed there, there is a light in the east in the distance, it should be the village near the mine, it is also a big village with more than 100 households, a total of more than 800 people, most of the labor is mining, and the remaining part of the labor is used for farming. In fact, it's not bad that I can live here all the time, but the Liu family may not simply let go of themselves.
Xiao Wu woke up Kou Yuhuan and told her the situation in the valley again, and in the end, of course, she ridiculed him again, who made him give up his huge wealth for a crippled and useless person. He had to take out some dry food and water and feed it to Kou Yuhuan, and finally blocked the other party's mouth.
Seeing that her spirit was fine, he began to discuss the future arrangements with her.
"The meridians are no longer a problem, as long as you take a few more pills, I will help you cast a spell to recover, the healing elixir that the red-clothed ancestor got out of nowhere is really good. ”
"Well, I know, the heaviest are the other two, not to mention the cultivation of the spiritual acupoint, that is, the last poison can already kill me, although I get your essence, it can only last for about a month. That's not my essence element, and I can't refine it, so I have to feel that the essence is losing all the time, which is really uncomfortable. Burning essence is really hateful. ”
"Don't worry, I still have that essence element, and I should be able to help you. Although the effect of the poison has been discharged, but you have very little essence left, is there any way to replenish and increase your essence?
"As long as I start to continue cultivating, the essence can be slowly replenished, Shou Yuan, I really don't know what the elixir is wonderful, even if it is an immortal cultivator, it can only increase the longevity of a Jiazi when it breaks through the middle stage of the solid foundation. ”
"By the way, it's to break through the middle stage of the solid foundation, as long as you break through to the middle stage, won't you have a longevity?" Xiao Wu suddenly became excited.
"It's easy to say, I'm now shattered in my spiritual acupoints, how can I still advance to the middle stage of solid foundation in a short period of time?" Kou Yuhuan poured a basin of cold water and said.
"You're just injured in the spirit acupoint, since you still have mana and can still use mana, it means that your spirit acupoint hasn't disappeared, if you don't try hard, how do you know if you can't do it?"
“----”
"You may be right, I don't want to die, since there is still hope, then even if I fail, I will try. Kou Yuhuan sighed helplessly.
"Hehe, that's right. Xiao Wu continued to agitate for a while.
"Then from tomorrow onwards, you can help me restore my meridians first. ”
"Why bother tomorrow, start now. ”
"I found that you are the one who is really suitable for cultivating immortals, knowing the trade-offs, and never giving up hope--。 Kou Yuhuan said sincerely.
"And luck is better than you. Xiao Wu said.
"Hehehehe, yes, your luck is really good to make me jealous. ”
"You take this pill first, and I'll start casting a spell to help you recover. Xiao Wu talked about recovery.
The sky gradually brightened, Xiao Wuda stretched a lazy waist, at this time Kou Yuhuan had just fallen asleep, after a night of non-stop spelling, her meridians have recovered a lot, as long as she persists for a few more days, she should be able to recover as before. Although he didn't sleep all night, his spirit was not affected, and the spell was simply used to moisten the broken meridians with spiritual power, and he only lost one percent of his mana overnight. Seeing the curling smoke rising from the village in the distance, he flew to the sky above the elixir garden with the coffin, and the five disciples of the Liu family had been standing there for a long time at this time. Not far from them, there were several mules tied to them, all of which were carrying some luggage, and it seemed that several of them were preparing to ride the mules back to the tribe.
When several people saw Xiao Wu flying over, they all stood up straight, "Meet the elder"
"You're all packed. ”
"Elder Gu, all the previous production in the valley this month is here, a total of 50,000 pieces of purple diamond, two low-grade spirit grasses, five medium-grade ones, and one high-grade one, you can check it out. ”
"It's done, you don't have to look at it, so be it. Xiao Wuyi waved his hand and took away all the spirit grass and four bags of ore, leaving one bag untouched.
"You divide this area by yourself, and it is also your credit for maintaining this place, remember not to talk nonsense about the situation here, otherwise you will all have families and mouths. Xiao Wu said gloomily.
"Your Excellency, please rest assured, we will not dare to divulge any information about this place. Several people were overjoyed at first, and then changed to timidity.
"Alright, let's go. ”
"Master Xie. The men divided the bag of ore and left gratefully with the mule.
Xiao Wu drove the magic weapon around and flew to the valley mouth magic circle, hiding in the dark and watching a few people walk out of the magic circle before he put his mind at ease, but as soon as he saw the prohibition in front of him, he was depressed again, which made him feel at ease!
The village is on the edge of the mine, and when Xiao Wu came to the mine, someone had already led the miners to work, and some women and children had begun to take farm tools to the fields. Yesterday I didn't look closely, but today I found that the middle of the whole valley is a cultivated farmland, and further west is a forest, occupying half of the Lingshi Gu, and it is said that there is a pool of water in the forest. Xiao Wu first took a turn around the purple rhombite mine, only to find that the mountain east of the rhombic valley contained this kind of finger-length two-pointed diamond-shaped ore, which was actually an above-ground mine.
The mine is small in size, only a long strip of ten acres is laid on one side of the mine, and the miners are smashing the boulders on the mountain one by one with hammers, looking for purple stones, and some people are pulling the gravel from the site to the open space on the other side.
According to the old man, they only need to take back the mined ore every day, and this mine has been managed by the chief of the villagers on a daily basis, and finally they will exchange grain or gold and silver for the amount of ore mined, which is a very free mine.
Xiao Wu naturally didn't have the intention of re-establishing the rules, but just found the chief of the village, a forty-year-old hunchbacked man, told the other party about his takeover of the mine, and asked some villagers about their lives and flew away. When the villagers saw that the new steward could fly, they all talked about it as an after-dinner topic, they were used to the contact with the immortal cultivators, and they didn't panic, as long as the transaction remained unchanged.
Xiao Wu took the map, followed the route above and circled around the surrounding area of the Lingshi Valley, and finally fell back to the front of the medicine garden, a five-acre garden, looking at the spirit grass inside was divided into three pieces of different sizes, they only had three kinds, one was a low-grade spirit grass like a pod, the number was not very large, one was a slender radish like a spirit grass with small yellow flowers, it was a medium-grade spirit grass, and it was also the largest number, and the other was a purple-black five-leaf high-grade spirit grass, and the number was okay. It's just that none of them have reached maturity, and I don't know how long it will take for them to mature, and it is obviously not possible to rely on the production of this medicine garden, since there is no need to stay near the medicine garden. Xiao Wu thought about it for a while, and finally chose a place, where the mountains in the west meet the mountains in the north meet, where not only can you overlook the entire valley, but also where the aura is the strongest, no less than the concentration of the core location of the Liu family. Xiao Wu controlled the Aoki sword to open a large square hole in the stone wall, which was also five zhang high from the ground, and the hole was not very deep, only about two zhang. After the last tidying, Xiao Wu made a big stone cave on the stone wall that was two zhang deep and one zhang high and two zhang long, and flew in after trimming and leveling the gravel and the wall inside.
