Chapter 164: Green Hidden Stone Cave
"Grandpa, the stakes are high, Zhi'er understands. Tang Zhi hurriedly replied.
"The cultivation of spiritual rice is very harsh, not simply planting seeds in the spiritual field, and it can be harvested when the season comes. Su Hu then recounted.
Liu Yuyi frowned, a little puzzled, after planting spiritual things in the spiritual field and taking care of them carefully, he should not worry about the harvest!
The Zhang family in Tianping County, planting Yin Spirit Flowers in the Lingtian, and Liu Yu himself took care of the Phnom Penh grass in Huangsheng Mountain for a year, it seems that there are no special requirements, that is, they have to send someone to take care of it.
"The growth of spiritual rice needs to be irrigated with a lot of spiritual water, and there can be a good harvest in the autumn harvest season..."Su Hu finished narrating and took a sip of tea.
It turns out that planting spiritual rice not only requires fertile spiritual fields rich in spiritual power, but also requires a large amount of spiritual water irrigation to produce full spiritual rice. The spiritual water used by the Su family for irrigation was taken to a stalactite cave in Luping Mountain, and the cave name was "Green Yin".
"Green Hidden" stone cave is a stalactite cave, in a hidden place in the deep mountain of the green screen, the top of the cave drips down all the year round, and converges into a pool of water at the bottom of the hole. The waterhole is not big, the spring water in the pool contains spiritual power, and it has reached the specifications of the second-grade intermediate spiritual water, which is very rare, and it is Zhong Lingyuxiu's green screen mountain, a beautiful gift.
It's just that this green hidden stone cave is not unique to the Su family. On the other side of Luping Mountain, there is Lujiabao, which is also a Xiuzhen family, and Sujiabao is known as the "Green Screen Second Fort" in the Shu Xiuzhen world.
The Su family and the Lu family have been friends for generations, and the two clans have advanced and retreated in the cultivation realm, and they are married to each other, which is very close.
The Lu family also occupies a share of the green hidden stone cave, and there is also a spiritual field in the Lujia Fort, which is also planted with spiritual rice, and the spiritual water in the cave is also needed. The two clans work together to keep this secret, and work together to protect and occupy the Green Hidden Stone Cave, which will not be touched by other forces.
It turned out that a thousand years ago, the ancestors of the Su family and the ancestors of the Lu family were brothers, both disciples of Huang Shengzong, and by chance they discovered the Green Hidden Stone Cave, and the two families moved to settle under the Green Screen Mountain, and each opened up the spiritual field at a great cost, which led to the "Green Screen Second Fort".
For a thousand years, due to the existence of the Green Hidden Stone Cave, the two clans have been very good and have continued. But a hundred years ago, the two families had a dispute for the first time, also because of the Green Hidden Stone Cave.
The Lingtan in the Green Hidden Stone Cave was like the size of a pond when it was first discovered, and after more than 800 years, the two clans took it uncontrollably, and the Lingtan shrank rapidly, becoming a puddle, which shrank nearly ten times.
That year, there was very little spiritual water in the Lingtan, which was no longer enough for the two clans to irrigate the spiritual field at the same time, and the two clans had the first dispute because of the water, and several juniors also had a fight.
After all, the two clans have been friendly for generations, and after the patriarchs of the two clans sat down calmly and discussed, they decided to conduct a competition between the two clans, the winner gave priority to taking water to irrigate the spiritual field, and the loser lost the right to take water this year, and the spiritual field could only be replanted with other spiritual materials with low growth conditions, and the losing side was destined to only have a small amount of spiritual stones in the account.
The two clans fought in the competition, only the grandchildren could be sent, so as not to hurt the generational harmony, the competition was divided into three games, and the family with more wins was the final winner, and the Su family regretted defeat. can only be planted in their own spiritual fields full of "Juwo grass".
"Juwo grass" is a first-order inferior spiritual grass, which has almost no medicinal value, and can grow extremely lush when planted in the spiritual field with a little care. The main function of Juwo grass is to burn it into ashes and sprinkle it in the spiritual field after it matures, and fertilize the spiritual power in the spiritual field.
This grass is tenacious in life, can absorb free aura, even if it is not in the spiritual field, as long as the growing ground is abundant aura, it can still thrive. This grass is in great demand in the cultivation realm, and as long as the family owns the spiritual field, they will buy it in large quantities to maintain the grade of the spiritual field and enhance the fertility contained in the spiritual field.
That year was the first spiritual water crisis, and it was also the beginning of the estrangement between the two families. After the incident, the patriarchs of the two clans investigated why the spiritual water in the stone cave was so scarce, and found that the root cause was that the two families had been abusing it uncontrollably for many years, which hurt the spirituality of Luping Mountain, greatly reduced the aura of Luping Mountain, and damaged the foundation.
That year, there was a great drought in Shu, and the sky was not beautiful, and the sudden decrease in water vapor in Luping Mountain was another major reason, which also made the production of spiritual water in the stone cave suddenly decrease.
The spiritual water in the stone cave is born from the green screen mountain, which is the essence of the green screen mountain, and the two clans have wantonly stolen it for nearly a thousand years, not only to irrigate the spiritual field, but also transported to the fang market to sell, in exchange for the spirit stone, dry up and fish, brew bitter fruit.
The patriarchs of the two clans thought about it carefully, and they were extremely afraid that if they used spiritual water in such an uncontrolled manner, the spirituality of Luping Mountain would become weaker and weaker, and they would eventually be unable to give birth to spiritual water, and then the two major families would lose their foundation, and the family would be defeated.
After discussion, the two clans took some measures, one was to limit the water intake, and each clan could only take out a maximum of 100 barrels of spiritual water from the waterhole every year, which was just enough to meet the irrigation of spiritual rice.
The second is to build a canal to lead a tributary from the Anjiang River, thousands of miles away, to surround Luping Mountain.
This canal has been vigorously welcomed by the people of Ansha County, ushered in an excellent reputation for the two ethnic groups, and brought tangible benefits to Ansha County, which has always been short of water, and is considered to be benefiting the people's livelihood.
The construction of this canal consumed a lot of financial resources of the two tribes, and a total of tens of millions of silver taels were smashed into it, and the two tribes, who had always been rich, also lived a frugal life for a long time.
"This year, there is a great drought in Shu again, and the spiritual water in the spiritual pool of the green hidden stone cave has been accumulated for a year, less than 200 barrels. When my father celebrates his birthday, the Lu family will bring people to celebrate his birthday, and a fighting competition will be held to determine the right to use spiritual water," Su Hu said helplessly.
"Grandpa, you called Zhi'er here, did you want Zhi'er to participate in the fight?" Tang Zhi was first shocked by Su Hu's secret, and then asked excitedly.
"That's right!" Su Feihong nodded back.
"Grandpa, Zhi'er will definitely win, and she will not let you down. Tang Zhi waved his small fist and said confidently.
"When the time comes, stay safe and do your best. Su Feihong smiled, then turned to Liu Yu and said, "Virtuous nephew, are you willing to help?"
"Senior, if you can help, it's a great honor to be here, but can outsiders also play?" Liu Yu replied suspiciously.
I thought to myself, isn't it stipulated that only the grandchildren of the two clans can participate in the fighting method? If outsiders can also participate, wouldn't it be safer to directly spend the spirit stone to hire a cultivator with strong strength?
"We did stipulate with the Lu family that only the grandchildren of the two clans were eligible to participate in the Water Fighting Law. Zhi'er is my granddaughter, and my nephew can pretend to be Zhi'er's husband and participate in the war as the grandson-in-law of the Su family. Su Feihong said calmly.
"This..."Liu Yu didn't know what to say, this was too unexpected, and his grandson-in-law was also a grandchild of his own family?
"Grandpa, I have nothing to do with my senior brother, do you have any misunderstanding?" Tang Zhi instinctively defended, with a look of shock on his face.
