19 Chapter 19
It was cold, and there was a light snow in the middle of the night, which was lightly covered on the ground, and the dark soil underneath could be faintly seen.
Ordinary trees have withered in this snow season, but spiritual plants are still sprouting tender green shoots.
After Shan Heyuan finished cultivating in the morning, he went to the back of the door and took a broom out to clear the snow.
Shen Duheng came back from outside wrapped in cold air, and when he saw that he was free, he stopped him: "How is the little tree in your dantian?" ”
Shan Heyuan served in Taihemen, and in addition to taking a rich monthly salary, the most he got back was the dead branches and fallen leaves of the spirit plant.
These branches and leaves looked inconspicuous, but under Shan Heyuan's skillful operation, they retook root, sprouted, and were carefully planted in the spiritual field by him.
There is a part of the spirit tree that grows very well, and it has many buds and strong vitality.
Shan Heyuan has been putting the spirit grass in the dantian to cultivate, but he has not yet tried to release the spirit tree.
A few days ago, he saw that the spirit tree in the nursery was growing well and the grade was also high, so he picked a small sapling of the foundation grade and put it in the dantian.
For the sake of safety, he specially said to Shen Duheng.
At this point, every morning when Shen Duheng saw him, he would ask him about the situation of the small saplings in the dantian.
When Shan Heyuan heard the question, he directly took the sapling out of the dantian, and raised it to Shen Duheng with bright eyes: "Very good, there is no sign of withering today." ”
Shen Duheng looked at it for a moment and nodded.
Shan Heyuan saw Shen Duheng's expression and knew that Shen Duheng was satisfied with the sapling.
He himself was pleased with the saplings.
Saplings are more durable than spirit grass, and the spiritual power released is also greater.
In just over ten days, he was about to cultivate to the ninth level of Qi cultivation.
Because of his diligent cultivation, his meridians are now much stronger, and when he cultivates, his spiritual power can run in a cycle at least five times.
The number of times his spiritual power runs increased, and the speed at which his cultivation was improved also increased.
It's a virtuous circle.
Qi Yuanbai also said that he was a genius disciple of a top-level sect, and his cultivation speed was about the same as him.
Shan Heyuan put the saplings back into the dantian, but said unfortunately: "With my current meridian strength, at least the spirit plants in the middle stage of foundation building can be placed in the dantian, but the saplings and other spirit plants to be used next have not reached the foundation building stage." ”
Shen Duheng knew his troubles: "I'll let the familiar shops pay attention." ”
"I also asked fellow Daoists for their help." Shan Heyuan sighed, "The market in Jingzhishan Town is still too small, and the spirit plants of the foundation building grade are also expensive. ”
Shen Duheng: "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain." ”
Shan Heyuan sighed with emotion, and was not very anxious about this matter, and when he heard Shen Duheng say this, he said with a smile: "Next, it depends on fate." ”
After the two finished breakfast, Shan Heyuan finished cooking Lingzhi, and went to Zhong Shuran's house with the talisman and carving knife.
The two families weren't far apart, and Edgeworth was there in a moment.
Zhong Shuran heard movement in the courtyard and directly asked Shan Heyuan to push the door.
Shan Heyuan went in to take a look, and saw that he had set up a talisman array in the courtyard, which was both windproof and warm, and the whole courtyard was as warm as spring.
Not only that, but he also placed a small tandoor on the side of the workbench, and the charcoal fire roasted slowly, and the tea in the stove gave off a curling aroma.
Shan Heyuan asked himself if he would live, but he was far from reaching his level.
Shan Heyuan exclaimed: "Amazingly, your yard is so comfortable!" ”
Zhong Shuran smiled lazily: "In such a cold weather, you still have to engrave the talisman, if you don't warm it up, you can't sit still." ”
Zhong Shuran asked Shan Heyuan to pull out the wide chair opposite the workbench and sit down, poured spiritual tea again, and put snacks and warm fruits on the table.
Zhong Shuran: "What talisman do you want to engrave today?" ”
Shan Heyuan took out the talisman and carving knife from the storage ring and put it on: "Ten pieces of spirit gathering talismans, ten pieces of insect repellent talismans, if there is still time, I will engrave five more pieces of Qingfeng talisman." ”
Zhong Shuran smiled: "It's so much, I'm afraid there is no time to go to the toilet today." ”
Shan Heyuan: "It's okay, I can't finish carving today, I'll engrave it tomorrow, I've been very free recently." ”
The two sat opposite each other, picked up the carving knife and carved slowly.
Zhong Shuran is a full-time talisman master, and when he encounters something he doesn't understand, Shan Heyuan directly turns the talisman to ask him.
Engraving is a relatively mechanical thing, and you don't have to worry much about it after it is cooked.
The two chatted while carving talismans.
Shan Heyuan talked about his desire for spirit trees: "There are too few types of spirit trees that can be bought in Jingzhishan Town, but you have a wide range of contacts, do you know anyone who has relevant resources?" ”
Zhong Shuran thought for a while: "No." Even if it is a hunting team, everyone mainly collects spirit grass, which can be used for alchemy, good circulation, and good storage. ”
Shan Heyuan sighed: "If only I could buy some high-grade spirit tree seeds." ”
Zhong Shuran: "Don't talk about you, I want to buy it too." A good wooden talisman is more expensive than a jade talisman, if you can plant a good spirit tree, you will have half a lifetime of talisman substrates. ”
The two sighed at each other, both dreaming.
Zhong Shuran suddenly said with a subtle smile: "If you want to talk about a high-grade spirit tree, I really know such one. ”
Shan Heyuan immediately cheered up: "Where is it?" ”
Zhong Shuran: "Do you know the Wushe view? ”
Shan Heyuan recalled: "Didn't Wusheguan fall early? ”
Before the Taihemen did not rise, Wusheguan was in charge of the local sect.
This sect takes a partial path, and it is said that it cultivates "witches" and cultivates with the power of ghosts and gods.
Most sects actually cultivate "spiritual power", and cultivating "witches" is a niche and mysterious method, but it does not affect the strength of Wusheguan at all.
It used to grow enough to be next to the first-level sect, but then it suddenly declined because of something.
If Shan Heyuan hadn't read extensively, he might not have known that there was such a sect.
Zhong Shuran: "The Wushe Temple has fallen, but the ruins are still there." I heard that there is a spiritual tree in the old site of the Wusheguan. ”
Shan Heyuan's eyes suddenly lit up: "Really? ”
The Spirit Tree of the Dan Period!
Not to mention that on the market, it is a large sect like Taihemen, and there are few spiritual plants in the sect that are in the Dan stage!
Zhong Shuran shrugged: "It's just hearsay." I heard that the spirit tree has a certain sense of self, but it has gone crazy in the decline of the Wushe Temple. ”
Shan Heyuan really couldn't imagine it: "A spirit tree of the Dan stage that has gone mad? What does that have to look like? ”
Zhong Shuran smiled: "Crazy." ”
Shan Heyuan: "Huh? ”
Zhong Shuran gestured: "Literally, the matter of that spirit tree trunk is quite crazy. ”
Shan Heyuan put down the wooden talisman in his hand: "How do you say this?" ”
Zhong Shuran: "Isn't the Wushe concept brilliant? The decline came and fell suddenly, and every few decades, there were monks who wanted to go to Wushe to see if they could dig up treasures, and there were many monks in the Yudan period. ”
Speaking of this, Zhong Shuran paused: "It's okay on the periphery of the Wusheguan ruins, once you go to the center, the spirit tree will come out of nowhere, and you will beat the person who has the idea of Wusheguan." ”
Shan Heyuan couldn't imagine it: "It's guarding the old home? It sounds like it has a good temperament, doesn't kill people, right? ”
"Good temperament?" Zhong Shuran smiled, "It is said that every person who is whipped by a tree will have a whip mark on his body, and he will not die until he dies, no matter what medicine is used, what pill he takes, it will be ineffective. ”
Shan Heyuan gasped: "It did it on purpose? ”
Zhong Shuran spread his hands: "How else would you say that the tree is crazy?" ”
After listening to the legend, Shan Heyuan imagined that if he provoked that tree, he would have to carry whip marks for the rest of his life, and he couldn't help but shudder.
However, the spirit tree in the Dan stage, how good should that tree's qualifications be?
Unlike monks, spirit plants basically determine which level they can reach when they are still seeds, unless there has been a major mutation.
For example, the earth spirit ginseng of the qi refining grade, the seed is the first order of qi refining, no matter how long it is, if it does not mutate, the mature plant will at most refine the qi to the great perfection.
And the legendary Nine Heavens Xuanshen, the seed is the Yuan Infant grade, and the adult plant is also the Yuan Infant and above if there is no accident, and the accident mostly ends in death, rather than dropping the grade.
Spiritual plants of the Jiedan grade are quite rare, and Shan Heyuan has been a planter for so long, and he has never seen such a high-grade spiritual plant.
There are a few plants in Taihemen, but the treasures at the bottom of this pressure box are tightly encircled by the formation, not to mention leaving it to him, he can't see it.
Shan Heyuan was afraid of the spirit tree, and at the same time, he couldn't help but yearn for it.
For a grower, nothing is more tempting than a high-grade spirit plant.
For him, such a good quality spirit tree not only means a spirit bead, but also a matter of cultivation.
Shan Heyuan asked, "Does it really not kill people?" ”
Zhong Shuran: "I've never heard of it killing people, but ordinary people can't even see its shadow, and they will be smoked half to death by it." Why, do you really want to hit the idea of it? ”
Shan Heyuan yearned: "That's a spirit tree of the knot grade." ”
Zhong Shuran smiled slightly: "With such a high grade, the mark left by the person is also very long-lasting, and it does not have the virtue of slapping people without slapping their faces." ”
Shan Heyuan: "If only it weren't so crazy, maybe we could talk about it." ”
Zhong Shuran glanced at him: "The strength of Taihemen is generally average, but it is not without elders above the Yuan Infant. Even if the people of Taihemen can't subdue that spirit tree, there are so many other forces that are interested in the spirit tree of the Jiedan grade, and it is still there, which is enough to explain the problem. ”
That's right, Shan Heyuan: "I'll just talk about it." I haven't even built the foundation yet, so even if I want to fight it, I won't be able to get close to it. ”
Zhong Shuran: "You just have a number in your heart." ”
got such a big news, at the dinner table in the evening, Shan Heyuan specially shared it with Shen Duheng.
After Shen Duheng listened, he said, "It's better to steal the Taihe Gate's Jie Dan Rank Spirit Plant than to find that Spirit Tree. ”
Shan Heyuan was shocked: "Why? Because it will pump people? ”
Shen Duheng: "It is a mutant spirit tree, good at space secret methods, and it also has the breath of 'witch', which is very easy to cause people's demons." Do you know why the mark it draws out can't be erased for a lifetime? ”
Shan Heyuan: "It's stronger? ”
Shen Duheng said lightly: "It will induce inner demons, and those who are smoked will not live for more than two hundred years and will die due to the invasion of inner demons." ”
Shan Heyuan's heart fluttered: "Does that also show from the side that its strength far exceeds the Jiedan grade?" ”
Shen Duheng: "Don't fight the idea of that spirit tree." ”
Shan Heyuan looked at his sharp gaze and waved his hand again and again: "With my current humble cultivation, I can't go if I want to." Don't worry, I'm not that unreliable, I'm just dreaming. ”
