Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Long-Lost Xiangling Rice Field
Feng Ruo and the others were not taken to the highest place of Jietian Peak, but under the leadership of the fat man, they finally stopped on a flat ground near the foot of the mountain.
The flat land was clearly artificially carved out, and the area was spacious, covered with fragrant rice, except for a dilapidated courtyard in one corner.
"Dong Xiaoyun!" The fat man shouted, and five disciples of Zhentian Sect who were a little embarrassed suddenly came out of the dilapidated courtyard, saying that they were embarrassed, because their cultivation was only in the middle stage of qi refining, and they were all only snow silkworm suits, which seemed to be even worse than Feng Ruo's mix!
"See Uncle Pang!" As soon as Dong Xiaoyun and the five of them saw Pang Li, they immediately saluted respectfully.
"A few of you, from now on, you will go to manage the No. 93 Medicine Garden, and someone else will be in charge here!" Pang Li announced with a blank face.
However, after hearing this, Dong Xiaoyun and the five of them were stunned for a moment, and they couldn't help but be ecstatic, obviously it was much better to go to the so-called medicine garden than here!
"Thank you, Uncle Pang!" thanked him one after another, Dong Xiaoyun and the others looked at Feng Ruo and the others with some pity, and left as if they were running away, for fear that the fat man Pang would change his mind in the next moment.
Seeing this scene, Feng Ruo and the others glanced at each other, and suddenly felt a little bad in their hearts, this dead fat man wouldn't treat them as miscellaneous servants, right?
At this time, that Pang Li turned around, a pair of chubby triangular eyes raised upward, and coughed majestically, "Although you are disciples of the Qingyun Sect, the Qingyun Sect is also a part of my Zhentian Sect, so from this moment on, you are the outer disciples of the Zhentian Sect, so you must follow the precepts of the Zhentian Sect, and you must also wear the symbol of the Zhentian Sect! If you are offended, I will not bend the law for personal gain!"
Speaking of this, Pang Li's fat face piled up a smile again, "Of course, this sect is also very pleased with your return, so the various discounts of this sect will not forget you! According to the regulations of this sect, outer disciples need to complete certain tasks, and as a reward, each person will receive ten low-grade Five Elements Stones every year, and your task is to take care of these three hundred acres of Xiangling rice fields, and at least 30,000 catties of Xiangling rice must be handed over every year!"
"Of course, this is only temporary, as long as you behave well, I will transfer you away soon!" Pang Li smirked twice, and then took out five identity waist cards and five jade slips and threw them over: "This is the mental formula of the first three layers of the Black Water Spirit Formula, remember! Don't leak it, if there is a violator, you should be punished for the crime of deceiving the teacher and betraying your ancestors! Also, your current identity can only walk below the mountainside of the Tianfeng Mountain, if you dare to trespass on the forbidden land, you will bear the consequences!"
After saying this, Pang Licai raised his hand and released a sixth-level golden feather goshawk, and left with great anger.
"Dead fatty, be careful to fall down and kill you!" It wasn't until the huge figure disappeared from everyone's sight that Tang Qing couldn't help but snort.
"Senior Sister Lan, what should we do? We have to take care of three hundred acres of Xiangling rice fields every year, and we don't have much time to cultivate at all!" Peng Yue said a little depressed at this time.
"Yes, I have to hand over 30,000 catties, this is almost all the output, if you are careless and negligent, you can't even reach this output! This dead fat man, I think he did it on purpose!" Tang Qing also said angrily.
Lan Ling's face changed for a while, his hands clenched tightly, and then let go, and finally sighed, and said helplessly: "Now this situation is already the limit that my master can strive for, we have to endure it, but one day, I will let that dead fat man eat shit!"
"That's right, Senior Sister said it well! This dead fat man is too hateful, but if we want to clean him up, we have to improve our strength first! Senior Sister Lan, we all listen to you!" Tang Qing also said viciously.
"Okay, let's clean up this courtyard first, I'm afraid that for a long time to come, we will all have to live here!" Lan Ling looked at the north with some sadness, turned around but already had a resolute face, and then took the lead into the dilapidated courtyard.
"Wow wow! Is there any mistake! There are also people living here, and the courtyard in Jugu Town is several times better than here!" As soon as he walked into this courtyard with his back against the foot of the mountain, Tang Qing shouted exaggeratedly.
Not only did this courtyard not have a protective formation, but even most of the walls collapsed, and there were only two rooms in the courtyard that were still intact, and as for the spiritual trees in the courtyard, they had already died, if there was anything special, it was that there were eleven dead spiritual trees! The one spirit tree in the middle was already the thickness of a water tank, and it was estimated that the age of the tree was three or four hundred years, and around this spirit tree were ten spirit trees that were only ten years old!
There is no doubt that the spirit tree in the middle was attacked by the innate wood sha, and in order to trap the innate wood shady here, Zhentian Sect transplanted ten spirit trees around!
"No, it's a dead spirit tree again, I wonder if we will have good luck to resurrect these eleven spirit trees this time?"
"Hey, Peng Yue, you should go and ask Tang Qing for this kind of thing!" At this time, Feng Ruo suddenly spoke, "Do you remember that in the Desperate Valley Town, who was the first to discover the sprouts of that dead spirit tree?"
After Feng Ruo's reminder, Lan Ling and the others' eyes suddenly looked at Tang Qing, and they immediately looked at him a little hairy.
"Hey, everyone, what does that have to do with me, I'm just the first to find out!" Tang Qing hurriedly jumped back and hurriedly waved his hand.
"Hehe! Tang Qing, what are you panicking about! We didn't say that you were possessed by a banshee, and even if you were possessed by a banshee, what if you were possessed by a banshee? At least you can resurrect the spirit tree! We are all counting on you this time!" Feng Ruo said with a smile, he will definitely resurrect all of these eleven spirit trees, but if this kind of thing really happens, there is an example of him predicting the death of the spirit tree before, maybe it will be suspected by Lan Ling and Mingxi, so it is better to take this opportunity to do some foreshadowing!
As for whether this matter would attract Pang Fatzi and other Zhentian Sect disciples, he was not too worried, because judging from the situation just now, no Zhentian Sect disciple liked this place, even that Pang Li was standing a few hundred zhang away and shouting people, and when the time came, as long as they arranged a mountain-like formation for this courtyard, it would really be seamless!
"Yes, yes, yes, Tang Qing, please be possessed by a banshee! Our future depends on you!" Peng Yue also said half-jokingly.
"Okay, don't mess up that mess, Feng Ruo, Tang Qing, Peng Yue, the three of you are responsible for repairing the courtyard wall, by the way, tear down these two smoky houses, and rebuild five clean and beautiful houses for me, and Mingxi and I will take care of the three hundred acres of fragrant spiritual rice!" Of course Lan Ling didn't believe in the so-called being possessed by a banshee, but this kind of joke made her feel a lot better, so after throwing all the dirty work to Feng Ruo and the others, she pulled Mingxi to see the scenery.
"Alas, I wish this was the last time we built a house, otherwise, even I would think I was a mason!" Tang Qing hugged his head and couldn't help but sigh.
"Hey, this is easy to do! You go out to open a sect by yourself, and then go to the mortal world to collect some disciples or something, then you can hand over the drudgery of building a house to your disciples and grandchildren!" Feng Ruo couldn't help but smile and said.
"Huh, Feng Ruo, what you said is really reasonable, I can't start a sect myself, but Senior Sister Lan can! If we can't get along at any time, we will go to the mortal territory to find a hill with beautiful mountains and rivers, and set up a sect, Senior Sister Lan will be the head, and I will be the protector of the Fa, the two of you, one is the master of the Heavenly Machine Academy, and the other is the master of the Heavenly Lord's Academy, we will recruit disciples, maybe we can also prosper!" Tang Qing suddenly said on a whim.
"Don't dream, you're talking about the King of the Mountain, not the sect! Let's do it, you two go cut wood, and I'll demolish the house! Otherwise, everyone will have to sleep in the open air tonight!" Feng Ruo laughed and arranged.
Waiting for Tang Qing and Peng Yue to leave with a smile, Feng Ruo first blew down the two houses, and then under the cover of the dust, he began to come to the eleven dead spirit trees to absorb the innate wood evil!
Now that he had fused that innate wood demon into his mana, the process of absorbing it didn't have to be as troublesome as before, just by inputting the mana into the spirit wood!
However, for the sake of prudence, Feng Ruo only absorbed the innate wood in the ten spirit trees on the periphery, and the spirit tree in the middle that was three or four hundred years old he didn't dare to do it for the time being, because there must be the most innate wood in it, if he rashly absorbed all of them, maybe he really couldn't control it!
The best thing to do is to take it step by step and absorb it while building up your mana!
After Feng Ruo absorbed the innate wood demons in the ten spirit trees on the periphery, there were also more than thirty innate wood demons in his body at the same time, and he was also busy using the power of the wood spirit stones to suppress this amount, fortunately, there was no one around, otherwise, he would definitely not be able to hide it.
"Whew, it's so dangerous! It's strange, why is this Innate Wood Demon becoming more and more difficult to suppress? Could it be that the mana in his body is still not strong enough?" Feng Ruo thought to himself, he remembered very clearly, when he fused the Innate Wood Demon for the first time, there was almost no discomfort at all, he didn't even notice it, but as he fused more and more Innate Wood Evil, although the Mu Demon Sword Qi released became more and more powerful, the feeling of discomfort became stronger and stronger.
"There shouldn't be anything wrong with the fusion of your own mana and the innate wood evil, so what's the problem?"
