Chapter 29: Learning to Farm (Part II)

He suddenly thought that mortal farming was too easy compared to this, stared at the spirit hoe for a long time, and the original curiosity was slowly worn away, he turned around and walked back to the house, and threw the hoe outside, anyway, this is his own cave, and no one can enter without his permission. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Walking back to the house, he locked himself in the practice room, holding the planting outline in his hand, meticulously studying, this reading was all night, when the next morning came, Lou Yi came to the edge of the spiritual field again.

Pull up the hoe on the spiritual field, instill the aura in his hand, watch the color of the hoe begin to change little by little, when the hoe's spiritual bridge was successfully built again, he waved the hoe down, only to hear the sound of chirping, the spirit hoe with black mud particles reappeared in front of his eyes, and then was waved down again, repeating the previous action.

Lou Yi had been observing the hoe at this time, and once he noticed that the color of the spiritual bridge between his hand and the spiritual hoe had changed, he hurriedly adjusted the output of the spiritual energy, and it took about an hour to come down from the ground.

Lou Yi put down the spirit hoe and gasped for breath, this is really an extremely laborious and physical work, no wonder everyone chooses to farm in a situation where there is no way, such as the current one, of course, there are some people who like this guy, and even make a fortune by relying on this craft.

This is not sensational, it is said that there is an ancient country in the history of the human race, Zhou, there is a great power named Houji, a wave of his hand can make thousands of hectares of fertile land harvest, relying on the ultimate understanding of planting, became the famous god of agriculture in Zhou, Lou Yi is also envious, but he knows very well that everything has a step-by-step process, it is a process of practice makes perfect.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, everything is expensive to insist, who can say that he Lou Yi will not become the same character as Hou Ji, but all this is still far away, and now he doesn't have this idea at all, let alone wave thousands of acres of fertile land, that is, now a ridge of land will cost him an hour, and it may take several days for this acre of land to come down, after all, physical consumption is secondary, and the most important thing is the consumption of aura.

He is now at the fourth level of the mortal stage, and the amount of spiritual energy is also quite large, but the transformed heaven and earth spiritual energy is limited, after all, he can only convert less than one-third of the cold qi into spiritual energy, just the time of meditation, it is very delayed time, and he still has to cultivate, how can he do nothing except meditate is farming.

The original enthusiasm dissipated again, looking at the crooked ridge in front of him, he knew that this was just the result of his own efforts, and this result was only to be able to plant the Spirit Valley, as for the spirit rice, this level was still far from enough.

Three days later, Lou Yi picked up the spirit hoe again, and this time he opened two ridges of land in one go, and the speed was greatly improved compared to before, but it still did not reach the level of planting spiritual rice.

Five days later, Lou Yi came to the edge of the Lingtian again, only this time he opened a ridge of sky, but it took more than two hours, but this time the depth was more than twice as deep as before, and more importantly, the strength was moderate and far greater than before.

He looked thoughtfully at the four ridges of land that had been opened in the past nine days, and turned back to the house without saying a word.

After another three days, Lou Yi came to the side of the spiritual field, bulldozed the black soil turned over with a spiritual shovel, and filled in all the achievements of the past few days, he adjusted his breathing, and copied the spiritual hoe, only to see the spiritual energy in the palm of his hand slowly come out, like a trickle flowing downward, and soon the spiritual bridge between the hoe and the palm was built, and it was seamless in one go.

Every time his hoe lands, it will bring out a large number of black mud particles, but unlike before, these mud particles are very uniform, as if the realization has been calculated, Lou Yi's spirit is highly concentrated, advancing at a uniform speed, it doesn't take half an hour, a ridge of land has been turned over, the ravines are neat and the depth is moderate, and the black mud particles on both sides are evenly distributed on both sides, arching the ravines in it.

Lou Yi didn't stop, turned around and started from the opposite side again, and after another half an hour, his face began to change slightly, and sweat began to appear on his forehead, but he didn't seem to be aware of it, and there was no trace of instability in his hands, and he still moved forward at a uniform speed, bringing the mud particles out of the soil evenly.

During the period, Lou Yi stopped and recovered because of his limited spiritual power, and it took six hours to finally turn over this acre of spiritual field thoroughly, and there were uniform black mud particles piled up on the ridge platform, which exuded a faint luster at the moment, and the depth of the ditch was uniform, which was suitable for planting Linggu and Lingmi.

Jiulongtian took half a day, Lou Yi was still quite satisfied, at least much better than before, he took out the Linggu from the storage bag, evenly sowed it in the Lingtian, and then irrigated it with the Lingquan on the side, and then pushed the soil on the ridge on both sides back into the ditch.

Completing this step is not considered a success, Lingtian naturally has spirituality and can give birth to vitality, but if you want to make Linggu mature, it will take at least six months, and you will have to go through a lot of variables during this period, and the breath emitted by Linggu will attract those soul-eating rice worms.

This kind of rice worm is as small as a sesame seed, but it will bring a very large loss, a small rice worm, as long as you don't pay attention, will instantly breed thousands of rice worms, and this small thing, has a much larger appetite than their size.

A rice worm can breed tens of thousands of companions in just three days, and these companions can wipe out an entire ridge of spirit valley in just one day, which is not the most terrifying place for them.

The most terrifying thing about these rice worms is that their eggs are invisible to the naked eye, and they will sneak into the spiritual field if they are not careful, and the rhizomes of the grains in the spiritual fields are always the most fragile, but they are also the key to the survival of the grains.

The larvae of the rice worm feed on the rhizomes of the Linggu, once the Linggu appears wilted, then the Linggu of ten meters around the range must have been eaten by the rice worms, and the healthy Linggu can produce high-quality grains, otherwise it will greatly reduce the yield and quality of the Linggu.

Therefore, after sowing the seeds, how to make them mature as soon as possible is the biggest problem for every Lingmi monk who planted the Spirit Valley, and Lou Yi has learned the method of ripening from the planting outline, that is, to nourish the spirit with the spirit.

What is to nourish the spirit with the spirit, to put it bluntly, it is to use the monk's own spiritual energy to breed the nutrients needed by the spirit valley, but this method is only suitable for monks who have a wood-based spiritual vein, and the higher the purity of the spiritual vein, the better the effect will naturally be.

Disciples with wood-based spiritual veins are very popular in Haoxue Sect, and their status is second only to fire-based spiritual veins, but generally disciples whose wood-based spiritual veins have reached the purity of the earth's veins have been recruited by the Elixir Hall, and the value of the elixir is more than a thousand times that of the Linggu, there is only one reason, that is, the growth cycle of the elixir is too long, and the fastest one-grade elixir will take ten years, and the slowest will take a hundred years.

And the disciples with high purity of the spiritual vein can speed up their growth, so the disciples with high purity of the spiritual vein of the wood system have been poached by the Elixir Hall, in addition to the high income, the most important point is to be able to contact the pharmacology, and the body can be continuously conditioned through the elixir, this conditioning is different from taking the elixir, the two are not the same, not to mention the disciples of the Elixir Hall, they can also receive ten additional spirit stones every month, who would give up such a good opportunity to work hard.

Lou Yi has a wood spirit vein with a purity of three, so naturally he can't do such a good thing, but he can increase the speed of Linggu's maturity by thirty percent, as long as he insists on continuous ripening, it only takes about four months to make Linggu fully mature, as long as there are no accidents, it is not a problem to support himself.

Generally speaking, an acre of spiritual field can harvest about 1,200 catties of Linggu, and if you are lucky, you can receive 1,500 catties, but the quality of Linggu depends on the state of its growth.

Insect control has almost become the top priority, in addition to insect pests, but also to prevent some artemisia grass from absorbing the aura in the spiritual field, the so-called artemisia grass, in fact, is also a kind of spiritual grass, the main purpose is to raise spirit animals, and this kind of artemisia grass is very easy to grow, often an acre of land can produce tens of thousands of catties in three months, but because of this, the value of artemisia grass is extremely low, a catty of Linggu can be exchanged for fifty catties of artemisia grass, and a catty of Lingmi can be exchanged for two hundred catties of artemisia grass.

A pound of spiritual rice is only ten yuan, you can imagine how worthless this artemisia grass is, so the monks who plant Linggu Lingmi, in addition to being afraid of insect pests, the most headache is to deal with artemisia grass, not to mention that this thing grows fast, but also absorbs the nutrients of Linggu, which will naturally delay the growth of Linggu, thereby reducing the yield of grains, and also giving the monks an unnecessary job every day.

Once the artemisia grass takes root, the root system will quickly spread downward, and even if it is pulled out, it will not take long for it to grow again, so its appearance will accompany the Linggu until the harvest season, which can be said to be a long-term battle like extermination.

The reason why he chose to plant Linggu instead of Lingmi is to consider that he has no money now, the yield of Lingmi is very low, an acre of land can produce about 600 catties, even if the harvest is the best, there is a harvest of 1,000 catties at most, the survival rate of Lingmi is not high, it is very easy to die, Linggu is relatively durable, as long as he is not too lazy, there will be no miserable situation of no harvest.

What's more, Linggu is the main feed for raising spirit birds, and the demand is great, and Linggu can also be eaten, although the effect is unsatisfactory, but it is better than nothing, he is now poor and white, where is it his turn to pick and choose.

Lou Yi looked at the fruits of his day's labor, his heart was still quite proud, he breathed a sigh of relief, stretched his waist, turned around and went back to the house, the burden on his body was still heavy, half a point could not allow him to relax, last time he did not die because Liu Yuan saved him, and at this moment he is already alone, if he encounters this kind of thing next time, he can only ask for more blessings.

And he knows very well that the other party must not want him to die all the time, after all, he has made the other party lose face several times in a row, and he has also lost a capable general, all of which indicates that the other party will not give up, and only by his continuous efforts can he get out of this predicament.
