Chapter 14: The Return
Lu Xuan said categorically, not allowing Zhang Xiuyuan to refute.
He didn't want to spend a lot of time looking for a loose cultivator who had been infested by insects, so he gave this task to Zhang Xiuyuan and gave him a little reward.
Zhang Xiuyuan had no choice but to accept it.
As soon as he thought that he could earn thirty broken spirits by finding a monk who had been infested by demon insects, he couldn't help but rejoice in his heart.
"However, there are some places that must be said well, the monks I am looking for can only be limited to the northern district, and I can only help at most three scattered spiritual planters a day to solve the pest."
Lu Xuan added.
At present, his main focus is on the spirit plants in his yard, if the spirit plants cannot grow in the best state because of the coveting of that little spirit stone, it will be more than worth the loss.
He still has a clear distinction between priorities and priorities.
There is another factor, what he is showing now is only the second-level cultivation of Qi cultivation, if he frequently urges the Gengjin Sword Technique, it will be easy to expose his true cultivation.
In the next ten days, Zhang Xiuyuan worked hard to find it, and Lu Xuan had to go out almost every day to help solve the pest.
As the insect infestation became more and more serious, and there was a possibility of repeated infestations, he had to urge the Gengjin Sword Technique three times almost every time he went out.
Every time he made a move, he gave Zhang Xiuyuan thirty broken spirits, and he could get four spirit stones and seventy broken spirits, and in more than ten days of hard work, plus the previous accumulation, Lu Xuan now has a net worth of about two hundred spirit stones.
During this period, the owner of the courtyard came over to collect a rent and paid thirty spirit stones.
In addition, eleven more Eclipse Moon Fruits were harvested, and nineteen remained.
All of them are of good quality, including five fragments of cracked silver blades, three first-grade Pei Yuan Dan, and three first-grade talismans.
With the addition of these five fragments, the Broken Silver Blade looked slightly more complete, with only a few small gaps.
Due to the simpler storage conditions of the Eclipse Moon Fruit, Lu Xuan did not rush to sell it, but collected it together, and then sold it to Baicaotang when it was all ripe.
In addition to the Eclipse Moon Tree, which was about to all mature, the other three spirit plants in the spirit field were in extremely good growth state.
The growth cycle of the firefly grass has passed halfway, and it depends on how it can be harvested again in more than a month.
As for the sword grass, under the stimulation of the golden sword qi of the Gengjin Sword Technique every day, a thin black grass like a sharp sword slowly grew.
Standing upright, the tip of the grass pointed straight to the sky, and there was a faint sword intent lingering around the blades of grass.
……
"Come on, come on, divide the spirit stones, this is your reward for today."
On the bluestone path, Lu Xuan took out ninety broken spirits and handed them to Zhang Xiuyuan.
"Thank you, Uncle Lu!"
Zhang Xiuyuan smiled innocently, took the broken spirit with familiar movements, and carefully stuffed it into his clothes.
The two of them just went to the three casual cultivators today, and Lu Xuan successfully solved it, and it was time to divide the profits.
"It's back, the first monks who cultivated the secret realm are back!"
There was a sudden commotion not far ahead, and Lu Xuan vaguely heard a few words, it seemed that the last time the Wang family organized a casual cultivation trip to the wilderness, and today came back the first batch.
He hadn't been to that wilderness where chance and risk coexisted, and he was a little curious about the new secret realm, so he took Zhang Xiuyuan over.
"I heard that that new secret realm has several layers of powerful formation protection, and the formation mage of the Wang family successfully broke through the two formations and found a lot of rare spirit plants, heavenly and earthly treasures, and even high-grade magic weapon exercises!"
"Damn, Lao Tzu is really red-eyed, I regret that I didn't sign up and go with me at that time!"
"If I go, maybe I will be able to get a great opportunity, and from then on, it will be possible to become a foundation building or even a great monk of Yudan!"
"It's just that hatred can't replace it!"
Everyone was talking about it, and they were all blushing at the great harvest of the monk who had returned from the secret realm.
Lu Xuan's heart has no waves in the ancient well, and it is inevitable that there will be a huge harvest in the secret realm, otherwise the Wang family, the big family in Linyangfang City, would not have organized so many monks and spent manpower and material resources to cultivate.
It's just that the majority of the income will also be occupied by the Wang family, and the rest will be divided by some powerful monks, as for the largest number of loose cultivators, it would already be good if they could get a little leftovers.
I don't even know how many people will not only not get any gains, but will lose their lives and die.
Zhang Xiuyuan, who was on the side, heard the monk's discussion, thinking about his father who he hadn't seen for a long time, he was nervous and urgent, said hello to Lu Xuan, and flew to the house.
Lu Xuan was not in a hurry, walking on the path home.
The news of the return of the monk who had cultivated the new secret realm spread rapidly, and the entire northern district of Fang City seemed to be ignited in an instant, and there was a sense of restlessness in the air.
While passing by a scattered monastery, Lu Xuan heard several mournful wails.
Through the open courtyard door, he saw a tired Sanxiu holding an urn, and a woman in front of him was crying sadly and grief-stricken.
This casual cultivator Lu Xuan is quite familiar, the male owner is a middle-aged monk surnamed Xiong, who has practiced qi at the third level, and signed up to participate in this secret realm reclamation.
The outcome speaks for itself.
He doesn't know how many times he has seen or heard such scenes along the way.
"The path of cultivation is long and obstructive, and if ordinary monks want to go further, they can only try to seize every possible opportunity, even if they are not careful, they will die, and they must strive for it."
"It's hard to practice, it's hard to practice!"
"Fortunately, I have that special spiritual field, so I don't have to fight for a glimmer of unknown opportunity, just farm with peace of mind."
Lu Xuan was even more glad that he had that special white light cluster, and he was also determined to never go out and take risks easily.
For the next few days, he stayed quietly at home, cultivating spiritual plants.
Zhang Xiuyuan didn't come to him for the past few days, Lu Xuan knew that he was worried about his father, and he was listless when he saw it occasionally, although Xu Wan looked calm on the surface, her obviously thinner face revealed her heart.
"Daddy!"
One afternoon, Lu Xuan, who was watering the spiritual plants with the spiritual rain technique in the courtyard, heard a shout of surprise.
He smiled and opened the courtyard door.
Sure enough, Zhang Hong was disheveled, strode towards his home, bulging in his arms, smiling with a wrinkled face, and he could see that he had gained a lot.
Seeing Lu Xuan, he nodded from afar and smiled.
Lu Xuan responded with a smile, watched Zhang Hong hug his wife and children, and entered the house with a happy smile.
He didn't go over to join in the fun, Zhang Hong came back from the wilderness with the harvest in the secret realm, and now he is at the most sensitive moment, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is rumored, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the wind is rumoring.
Although the two trust each other very much, if they rush over now, it may cause unnecessary suspicion and resistance.
Half a day later, Zhang Hong came to the door by himself.
