Chapter 72: Xiao Xuan wants to be a mountain god (two in one, ask for a monthly ticket to be read~)
The gathering between the immortals is not much different from that of mortals, and everyone knows what they are here for, so they don't say anything about work.
Everyone gets along well with each other, even if there is a relationship between superiors and subordinates, it will not make the link of "why are you here and not working hard"; If there is a gap in status, that is, a title such as "Niangniang" or "Shangxian", nodding, even if it is a greeting.
When acquaintances meet between immortals, they will not ask "Have you eaten" or "What have you eaten" like mortals, but "Daoyou have been fine recently", "Hahaha, you are fat again", "How is it?" How many days have you skipped work this month, let's compare" and so on...... Du Kang found that he had been able to calmly accept such a conversation between the immortals, which could only be said to be very reasonable.
Even, for the fact that Guicheng has been turned into a suitable venue for the gathering of immortals in such a short period of time, and various markets, wine shops and even other entertainment venues have been built, without affecting the sleep of ordinary people, Du Kang only sighed, "Why are you so skilled, how many times have you done this", instead of a more surprised reaction.
Shi Yuye ran around like a child, greeting all kinds of people, looking at things and buying things, even more excited than Du Kang, who met this scene for the first time.
Du Kang and Yunxiao chatted a little slower. Du Kang has basically never seen most things, and Yunxiao is also not tired of patiently answering them one by one, and can always expand on other things, as if the topic can never be finished, it is very easy to talk about.
For some reason, for such a scene, Du Kang always had an inexplicable sense of dΓ©jΓ vu, but he didn't think about it carefully.
"It's extremely difficult to grow, mainly because of the harsh growing conditions and the long growth cycle it takes to flower and bear fruit." Yunxiao smiled and explained Du Kang's confusion and said.
Speaking of this, it reminds me of back then, when Yuye suddenly had a whim and wanted to plant peaches. Then I looked for the soil and begged for the soil, and found the queen mother for the spring, and made a big battle, but after planting for a few years, I didn't even see the buds of the peach, and suddenly I was impatient, and shouted that it was better to go to the queen mother and ask for a peach to eat, and I saw that it was a pity, so I asked her to move it to me, and I took care of it for her. β
"The peach that blooms once in 3,000 years and bears fruit once in 3,000 years, if you want to sprout into a tree, it must not be so fast, right?" The corners of Du Kang's mouth twitched slightly and said.
If you think about it carefully, it seems that this is indeed something that Shi Yuye can do, and it is very in line with the divine design!
"Of course, it is not so fast, but the Queen Mother and the Hou Tu Niang Niang pity the jade leaves, and give her the best soil and spring water, and this peach kernel sprouts and grows into a tree, which is still much faster than in the heavenly court, and even bears fruit faster. It has already bloomed and borne fruit once a few years ago. Yunxiao said, "But the fruit is still a little different from the peach in the peach orchard." β
"Why is that?" Du Kang asked curiously.
"I thought about it, and I only thought of one possibility, and that was time."
Yunxiao smiled lightly: "I don't know how many years ago the peach tree was planted by the Queen Mother, for so many years, it has been absorbing the nutrients of the spiritual soil and receiving the irrigation of the spiritual spring, and the fruiting cycle is long, and the fruit is few, so the quality of the spiritual power contained in the flesh is naturally high."
I can't solve this point, relying on magic to ripen is tantamount to a means of raising seedlings, and for the growth cycle of peaches, it is really a drop in the bucket, so I have to let it go, put the peach tree there, wait for a long time, and the peaches will naturally become more and more delicious. β
"I see, even for the gods, time is something that is difficult to control?" Du Kang was talking, and he was suddenly stunned.
Time?
At the mention of this word, another thing suddenly came to Du Kang's mind.
That is, his substitute!
"Isn't my substitute shift just traveling back to ancient times from the modern era to do things, and then the things I do can be reflected in the modern era? It's not clear if there's a limit, but it's definitely a matter of time, right? β
A bold idea suddenly popped up in Du Kang's heart.
"If I find a place to plant things when I am substitute for work, and specialize in planting the kind of natural treasures that take a long time to get better, when I finish my substitute shift and return to modern times, will I be able to directly harvest the good things that have grown for many years?"
Du Kang feels that the feasibility of this method is quite high, mainly because the rewards are too amazing, and it is completely worth trying.
"But if you want to try, you have to take into account a more serious problem, a long time does not only represent a treasure of heaven and earth, but also represents countless accidents, what if something similar to the atmospheric transporter in the novel takes away what I planted?" Du Kang fell into deep thought.
In the past, when I read novels, there were often cool points like the protagonist accidentally breaking into the cave and obtaining the secret books of various heavenly and earthly treasures, and for the protagonist, this kind of thing is of course overjoyed. But if you think about it from another angle, there is a master in the blessed land, and it is the grower who intends to keep it for later use...... Isn't that the same as being stolen by a thief?
Blood loss!
If Du Kang tries according to the plan, he will definitely face the risk of this blood loss, but he only wants to be the protagonist of the opportunity, and he doesn't want to be the "old man of chance" - everyone will have double standards.
Therefore, it is necessary to find another way to avoid this possibility, a way to be effective for a long time and as reliable as possible......
"Right now, the most suitable thing is obviously to find powerful immortals like Ji Shen, Shi Maiden, and Yun Maiden. Basically, it is impossible for any god or man to dare to make an idea from their hands, although during this period of time from ancient times to modern times, there has been a matter of spiritual energy being cut off and the gods sleeping, and it cannot be said that it is 100% safe...... But it's probably the safest measure, right? Du Kang thought to himself.
"Du Gongzi, what did you think of?" Yunxiao noticed Du Kang's abnormality and asked curiously.
"Listening to Miss Yun talk about this interesting story of planting, I suddenly remembered that I had planned to plant something myself," Du Kang replied, "It's just that I still need to find a suitable place right now, it needs to be closer to here, the environment is better, and it is easy to hide and protect, after all, I shouldn't be able to take care of ...... for a long time."
"The right place?" Hearing this, Yunxiao said after a little silence, "According to these requirements of Childe, isn't Zhaoyao Mountain very suitable?" is close, rich in spiritual power, just need to find a suitable location, set up some formation protection, and then entrust the mountain god to take care of it, basically nothing can go wrong.
It just so happens that I also have a little bit of experience in formation, so I can provide some help to Childe in this regard. β
"In this way, then thank you in advance, I don't know where I can repay Miss Yun?" Du Kang was overjoyed.
"It's just a small favor, I happen to be bored, if I have to repay it, I will have a chance in the future." Yunxiao smiled gently.
"What swagger mountain, what formation, what are you talking about?" Shi Yuye appeared in front of the two of them and asked curiously, "I smell something going on!" Where are you going to fight again? β
"It's not a fight, it's like this......" Du Kang repeated the matter to Shi Yuye.
"It's boring to grow things! However, if Du Gongzi wants to plant, I can also help to ask for some spiritual soil and spiritual springs. Shi Yuye heard that it wasn't a fight, and immediately looked a little disappointed, probably because the last time it was really not enjoyable, but he still gave advice seriously.
"It just so happens that Du Gongzi doesn't have a good relationship with Ji Shen? You can ask the god of Ji as a guide, this is his old business, with the god of Ji, there must be nothing wrong! β
"Miss Shi has a point." Du Kang only felt that it suddenly dawned, probably this is the network, no, the benefits of the divine vein, if you encounter something, you can find a professional counterpart God to solve it, and all the things are arranged at once.
"However, it may be a bit of a problem for the mountain god to help take care of this. After all, the mountain god has already lost his cultivation, and he needs a certain amount of time to re-cultivate back, so he should be given a holiday, and it is estimated that he will slowly practice to extend the vacation time, so this time is a little uncontrollable......
After he returns from successful cultivation, it is estimated that he will not continue to be a mountain god in Zhaoyao Mountain, after all, the cultivation he lost because of sticking to his own work, it is natural to be compensated and rewarded afterwards, and it is very likely that he will be promoted. β
Shi Yuye said: "So, if you choose Zhaoyao Mountain, Du Gongzi, you still have to have a good relationship with the next mountain god of Zhaoyao Mountain." β
"I see......" Du Kang nodded thoughtfully.
What Shi Yuye said can be regarded as "the daughter of a bigwig in the industry broke the truth about the industry", so there is no need to say much about its authenticity and accuracy, Du Kang has no doubts.
In the same industry, there is often a considerable gap between the cognition in the industry and outside the industry, such as the programming ape, the maintenance of air traffic control, teachers, etc., almost every industry has so many stalks, the layman is reasonable, and the insider wants to laugh to death.
For example, there are many in the author's line, for example, it is rumored on the Internet that a certain sticker master is because "he signed a guaranteed contract with a certain point for 10,000 a month, so he has been updating a certain bit of wool", a bunch of people say it is reasonable and well-founded, and it seems to be convincing enough.
However, in fact, even a little bit of people in the industry know what the truth is - when this book was first opened, it was a god book that dominated the list for more than a few years, until now, it may not be so popular at a certain point, but it has always been the ultimate hit in various channels, who wants to end it?
Therefore, the phrase "interlaced like mountains" is really not a casual saying, and it is better not to express opinions on professional matters from an amateur point of view, which can easily become a joke.
"Speaking of which, what is the choice of the mountain god?" Du Kang asked curiously, "Is there anything particular about the choice?" β
"The choice of the mountain god is actually similar to that of the land lord, it is to choose the ghosts of those who have done good deeds in life and have the ability after death, or other creatures and spirits with good hearts and excellent abilities."
Shi Yuye said: "For example, Xiao Xuan, according to what it did at the beginning, even if we don't come and are found later, nothing will happen, at most it will be a lesson." When you are successful in your cultivation and keep your heart intact, you can be named a mountain god. β
When Du Kang heard this, he looked down at Xiao Xuan, who looked up after hearing his nickname, thoughtfully.
He always remembered one thing - in later generations, Zhaoyao Mountain was called Mao'er Mountain!
Although the official theory is that it was named because there was a rock on the top of the mountain that resembled a squatting cat, it should not be changed to Mao'er Mountain just because of this.
When he accidentally discovered this before, Du Kang had already vaguely guessed, and now, through Shi Yuye's words, this conjecture has become a bold idea.
"Since that's the case, why don't you let Xiao Xuan become the next mountain god of this swaggering mountain?" After thinking about it for a while, Du Kang said, "Of course, not now, but when Xiao Xuan's cultivation is successful, as for the gap during this period...... Can be ...... by the Truth Word Demon The truth is long to do? β
"After Xiao Xuan's cultivation is successful, of course he can be a mountain god, but the truth is long to be this swaggering mountain god......" Shi Yuye's face was slightly strange, "In terms of his ability, there must be no problem, but I estimate that he won't be able to do it for too long, and it is very likely that he will be seconded by other departments to do other things......"
"It's okay, when the seconded department comes, it will definitely arrange for the immortals to come over and act on their behalf, and when Xiao Xuan's cultivation is successful, he can officially take office...... Of course, I also have to ask Xiao Xuan and Shingon Dao how they are. β
Du Kang did not directly settle this matter, but squatted down, stretched out his hand, and touched the cat's head with a smile: "Does Xiao Xuan want to be the mountain god of Zhaoyao Mountain in the future?" β
"Is there any benefit to being a mountain god?" Xiao Xuan asked.
"Yes, if you become a mountain god, you can enjoy the kind of 'incense' that you thought was good before in the future, and you can also eat the fish, meat, melons and fruits and other sacrifices they offer you." Du Kang said, "As long as you do what the mountain god is supposed to do." β
"What is the mountain god to do?" When Xiao Xuan heard this, the black pupils in Huang Chengcheng's eyes dilated, and he asked again.
"It's what you've done before, helping the people you need to help, doing what you can. I will teach you exactly what to help and what not to help. Du Kang said.
"Hmm...... I want to be a mountain god! Xiao Xuan just thought about it for a while, and then decisively agreed, and the incense and fish sacrifices were particularly attractive to it.
Du Kang smiled, children are easy to deceive...... Oh no, the child is so persuasive!
Comparatively, the truth is a little troublesome, after all, it is a person who can distinguish between truth and falsehood, and can only move it with emotion and understand it with reason.
However, Du Kang is still very sure, after all, what he is best at is convincing people with reason.
As for the arrangement of the gods after both parties agreed, Du Kang was not worried at all, Shi Yuye was here, just a matter of words, the big guy did things so simply.
"When these things are dealt with, we have to suspend the substitute shift and go back to modern times......" Du Kang thought.
