Chapter 30: Hard Labor
Lin Zhongyu changed back to his own appearance and sat cross-legged on the bed to breathe.
Yu Xiao held a spirit stone in his hand and thought about his next plan.
It is impossible for the sect to enter again, not in this life. When the wind passes, find a quiet place to practice.
There are nearly 800 low-grade spirit stones on his body. Yu Xiao asked Lin Zhongyu about the Rising Pills that improved his cultivation and twenty spirit stones, but he only sold them to Monk Kunmi. It doesn't matter, she still has the token of Qinglai Yuefu.
By the middle stage of Qi refining, you have to ask for a hundred Interest-Raising Pills, that is, two thousand spirit stones, not counting the Replenishing Spirit Pill and Hetai Pill. Although it is far from enough, you can fight demon beasts and find ways to earn spirit stones, as long as you live, there is hope.
Yu Xiao was imagining the future when he heard footsteps in the distance, coming this way.
She threw the spirit stone into the storage bag, glanced at Lin Zhongyu, who was still meditating, and walked outside.
Lin Zhongyu is now his own appearance and cannot be seen by others.
She stood at the door for a while before she saw Li Mu coming over. Even if he was only a monk in the early stage of Qi refining, his senses were much more sensitive than those of mortals.
"Is Immortal Master Cui in the house?" asked Li Mu in a stiff tone. Since he didn't agree with this family business, he couldn't be polite to Cui Xingping's entourage.
"Yes, he's cultivating, so it's best not to disturb him. ”
Li Mu looked at Yu Xiao suspiciously, how could he go to someone's house to practice when he proposed marriage.
"Immortal Master Cui wants to advance to build a foundation as soon as possible, so he is very hard. Yu Xiao remembered that the spirit stone prepared for the Li family was still on the bed, and hesitated how to go in and take it out.
After listening to Yu Xiao's words, Li Mu hesitated again, if Cui Xingping advanced to the foundation building period, then this family business is acceptable.
But that was also when he advanced and immediately asked, "Immortal Master Cultivation, you have nothing to do, right?"
Yu Xiao didn't know what she was going to do, and subconsciously shook her head.
Mother Li grabbed her arm and showed a smile floating on the skin: "The guys in the store have gone home to save their relatives, there are not enough people, so let's do a favor." He dragged Yu Xiao to the backyard.
Yu Xiao smiled bitterly. Understand that this is not enough to see them eating and drinking for nothing here, let her work to recover some losses.
When I walked to the backyard, I could smell the sweetness of ripe fruit, mixed with the smell of fermented wine.
As soon as he entered the workshop, Yu Xiao felt that he had shrunk.
There were two rows of wooden barrels about the size of the Black Stygian Ding, as well as a huge wooden mortar, and the rods in the wooden mortar were the thickness of Yu Xiao's thighs.
Father Li stood shirtless on the ladder next to the barrel, checking the fermentation of the spirit wine.
He has also refined his body, and he has a craft of winemaking, which is much better than being able to be a guard for a large family. He had already earned a family business.
Perhaps it was because of the smell of wine here that Father Li changed his appearance of shrinking in the hall and became heroic, and his voice was like a bell.
"Xiaodao Chief, I'm sorry to make you tired. Then he unceremoniously instructed Yu Xiao to do his work.
The Li family brews pure spirit fruit wine, no additives, pure and natural, all relying on koji and pulp fermentation.
Yu Xiao's job is to grind the spirit fruit into puree. She poured a sack of green peaches into a wooden mortar, stood on a high chair, and gently crushed it, squeezed out the core and threw it away, and then pressed the pulp.
The emerald peach is the size of a fist, the color is emerald green, but the flesh is soft, juicy and sweet, and it is not difficult to grind.
But after doing it all afternoon, Yu Xiao's arm couldn't be lifted, and the smell on his body was like he had turned into a green peach.
Father Li was very happy, but he didn't expect that this little entourage seemed to be weak, but he had also practiced his body, and with him, he finished the two-day work in one afternoon, and patted Yu Xiao's shoulder affectionately.
"Xiaodao Chief, thank you for your hard work. Take this little bottle of spirit wine and drink it. ”
Yu Xiao accepted it unceremoniously, pointed to the large pile of fruit pits left and asked, "Is this fruit pit useful?"
Li's father said that he could only throw it away.
"Then I'll clean it up for you. ”
Father Li hadn't seen the guy who took the initiative to take the job, and was about to praise her a few words, when he saw Yu Xiao release a Luli pig.
Yu Xiao saw that there was still some flesh on the kernel, although it was not much, but it was also a spirit fruit, and he wanted to give it to Dudu to eat.
After Dudu came out, he first glanced at Yu Xiao with sideways eyes, and then went to smell the kernel, and ate all the kernels, licked the ground, and sat on the ground waiting for Yu Xiao to carry it into the spirit beast bag.
Under Father Li's surprised gaze, Yu Xiao pretended to be calm and put Dudu back into the spirit beast bag, and secretly prayed in his heart, don't digest it.
Father Li ran out to order the spirit fruit, and he wanted to make more spirit wine while the free labor was there, so that he could rest in the second half of the year.
Yu Xiao returned to the house, and Lin Zhongyu had just finished meditating. Yu Xiao groaned and lay on the bed.
Lin Zhongyu sniffled: "They invited you to drink?"
"Dream on, you, I'm going to earn money for the two of us. Yu Xiao took out the spirit wine and handed it to Lin Zhongyu, "Do you drink it?"
Lin Zhongyu's eyes lit up, and he took a sip.
"The color is too poor, the taste is not bad, and the spirit wine can heal injuries, which is just good for me. ”
Yu Xiao snatched it up, and put all the twenty spirit stones on the bed into his storage bag.
I just took a sip. Lin Zhongyu reached out to grab it, "Why did you take away the spirit stone?"
"I don't need to give them spirit stones, this spirit stone has to belong to me. Yu Xiao pressed hard.
"Isn't it half of a person?"
"You didn't do hard labor!" Yu Xiao saw that the storage bag was about to be snatched away by Lin Zhongyu, and shouted, "I'll give you the spirit wine to drink." ”
Lin Zhongyu hummed and agreed: "I knew that they hadn't seen this surnamed Cui, so I used my own appearance." They saw that I was so good that they wouldn't ask for a dowry at all. ”
He slowly tasted the bottle while holding it.
Yu Xiao scolded him for being a bad drunkard, and he shook his head and said, "You don't understand." Spiritual wine and spiritual vegetables can increase cultivation, and they can be absorbed without meditation, which is better than pills. But you have to do it well, your craft is far behind. ”
"Then you go and join the show faction. Yu Xiao said disdainfully.
"All monks can absorb aura, but the Xiu Se faction just absorbs it better, and its cultivation rises even more. Those wine fairies and food gods made of spiritual wine and spiritual vegetables, you can't buy them. ”
After listening to Lin Zhongyu's words, Yu Xiao was ready to learn the technique of winemaking when he was doing hard labor tomorrow. She doesn't plan to cook anymore, she can still make wine, and the fruit wine is sweet and sweet, and it tastes good.
After half a month of hard work in the Li family, Yu Xiao also inquired about the peace in Huaixi Town, and a few days ago there was a news that a flying ship had set off from Biyun Peak, and found a reason to pull Cui Xingping, who had become a rain in the forest, out of the door.
