Seeing Lin Yu's panic, Xu Yang supported her and comforted her: "Yu'er, you're stuttering again. Don't be nervous. Just rest a little longer. It'll be fine."
With that said, he dressed, washed, and went to make breakfast.
For a moment, the aroma of spiritual rice porridge filled the room.
In fact, Lin Yu had already gotten up, cleared the table and took out the bowls and chopsticks.
Seeing Xu Yang diligently carrying the pot and smelling the fragrance of the spirit rice, my heart turned from worry to joy, and I was very moved.
Previously, when she got up late, she was worried that her husband would be unhappy. But now she saw that her husband was working hard and was obviously considerate. She knew that she had found the right person.
"Sit down and I'll serve you some food."
After having a good meal, Lin Yu cleared the dishes and chopsticks very sensibly.
And Xu Yang walked out of the backyard and came to the field behind.
This is a spiritual field. His family has about two acres of land. In the early morning, there is still a thin mist in the field, nourishing the spiritual plants in the field.
This is a first-level spiritual plant called Lingxu grass, and fifty plants can be planted per acre.
Planting is not difficult, just add water and input spiritual energy regularly. It can be harvested twice a year. It is used as a material for several types of healing and is widely used in the spiritual world.
Recently, it is the time when Lingxu grass is about to be harvested.
But when he saw it, he frowned. The nearby Lingxu grass was covered with insect eyes.
He knelt down to check and suddenly found a message appearing in front of him.
[First-order Lingxu grass: maturity level 94%+, status: insect pest. 】
Xu Yang: "!?"
He was surprised that he could actually achieve spiritual growth.
After thinking for a while, he quickly looked towards the better-looking Lingxu grass on the side.
[First-order Lingxu grass: maturity level 96%+, status: good. 】
At this moment, Xu Yang was overjoyed. According to the information he received, he could see the attribute value of any spiritual plant he planted and cultivated by himself, and he could use the attribute value to add points to it to speed up the growth of the spiritual plant.
For example, Lingxu grass takes six months to grow. If he adds one attribute point, Lingxu grass will mature.
This is so cool!
"However, this batch of Lingxu Grass is now full of insect eyes!"
With the bug-eyed Lingxu grass, its aura has dropped drastically and it cannot be sold at all. Even if it is used as a wild vegetable, others will find it unpalatable.
"This is a spiritual green insect!"
The green caterpillar is a kind of insect pest. Although it can be killed by one foot, it hides in the soil during the day and is difficult to find. If you dig it out, it will damage the roots of the spiritual plant.
"For today's plan, I have to buy a bottle of insecticide water! But this place is ruined."
“However, with added attribute points, will Lingxu Grass restore health?
He still has 12 attribute points, so just do it if you think of it.
He looked at a Lingxu grass whose status was 'pest', equivalent to a dead plant, and added an attribute point to the plus sign at the back.
Suddenly, a green light flashed on the Lingxu grass, and its state changed.
[First-order Lingxu grass: one year of maturity. Status: Excellent. 】
"Hiss!"
Xu Yang's eyes widened in shock.
The quality of this type of spiritual plant is divided into: poor quality, average, good, and excellent. Further up, it depends on the year.
Normally, it takes six months for everyone to plant Lingxu grass. If it is planted well, the quality will be good at best.
But now, the quality of the insect-infested Lingxu grass has reached an excellent level, and it lasts for one year!
It is not impossible for such Lingxu grass to appear, but two points must be met.
[First: There is a special spiritual planting spell. 】
[Second: There is an excellent spiritual land for planting spiritual plants. 】
"Generally speaking, a good quality Lingxu grass can be sold for 50 broken souls."
One spiritual stone is equal to one hundred broken spiritual stones.
Counting two acres of land, you can earn fifty spiritual stones for each harvest. If you harvest twice a year, you can earn one hundred spiritual stones.
Excluding the loss of seeds and Lingxu grass, as well as the consumption of self-cultivation, buying food and drink, one year's income can have a surplus of thirty or forty spiritual stones.
But this one-year-old Lingxu grass is worth 120 pieces of spirit.
The older the spiritual plant, the higher its value.
Xu Yang breathed a sigh of relief. Now that the spirit stone was in his possession, he felt at ease.
He glanced at the remaining attribute values, and there were still 11 points left.
He didn't hesitate and continued to add more points.
"Add more, add more, add more..."
Soon, 11 more annual Lingxu grasses were harvested.
"Hey, husband, is this Lingxu grass mature? It feels different from the ones next to it."
As the dozens of Lingxu grass matured, Lin Yu, who did not know how to farm, opened his eyes wide and noticed the difference.
"Well, it's mature and ready for harvest."
Xu Yang smiled, took a shovel, and started digging up the roots.
A total of 12 Lingxu grasses were put into the vegetable basket. He would wash them later and take them to some drug stores to sell them.
After returning to the house, he separated the Lingxu grass into three bags and prepared to go out and sell it.
The reason why we keep them separately is because we are worried about accidents. We cannot put our belongings in the same basket when we go out.
He put the two bags against his waist, hung another bag outside, and walked out.
Outside, many practitioners began to get busy on the bumpy streets.
Most of the people living in the outer city are low-level monks. They live very hard every day and need to constantly earn spiritual stones to survive.
"Fellow Daoist Xu is newly married, why are you leaving so early?"
"Would you like to spend some time with your wife, Taoist Brother Xu?"
I met familiar neighbors on the road and said hello one after another.
Xu Yang responded with a dry smile, and suddenly noticed that several familiar Ling Zhihus were hurriedly going out.
"Oh, Brother Xu!"
A loud voice stopped Xu Yang.
This voice sounded familiar to me. It was one of the few monks I had a good relationship with here, named Li Dayong.
Li Dayong was tall and honest in appearance. He had a fourth level of Qi training and a Taoist companion who was a second level of Qi training. The two gave birth to a five or six-year-old girl.
This couple is both spiritual husbands, and they have seven or eight acres of land here. Occasionally, Li Dayong will go out to hunt monsters, and their living conditions are much better than Xu Yang's.
He used to be a farmer, and Li Dayong and his wife gave him guidance, which helped him avoid many detours.
"Brother Li, good morning."
Xu Yang greeted with a smile.
"A lot of green caterpillars appeared in many people's fields today. How is the situation in your fields?"
"I also have a lot of green caterpillars in my house, and I'm about to buy pest control water."
"Then you go and buy it quickly. Your sister-in-law went to buy it early in the morning and said that everyone's fields are infested with pests and the insecticide water is almost sold out."
Xu Yang was shocked, he didn't expect the insect infestation to be so serious, but fortunately he ripened a batch of insect-infested Lingxu grass, so the situation was not that bad.
While feeling relieved in his heart, Xu Yang showed the anxiety he should have: "I know Brother Li, I'll go right away."
Li Dayong seemed to have thought of something again, and reminded: "By the way, Lao Wang's family died last night. His nephew opened the door early in the morning and found out that the old couple died tragically."
"What? Old Wang is dead?"
Lao Wang is an old monk at the third level of qi training. He has a mortal wife who is also a spiritual husband. They are not far apart and live in the north, which is relatively remote from here.
"Well, it should be Jie Xiu. The whole house was emptied. Hey, I reminded Lao Wang the day before yesterday that the defensive formation at home was broken and he had to buy a new one. He said he had to pay land rent and defensive formation. Slowly."
While Li Dayong was talking, Xu Yang thought of himself.
The defensive array in his home is about to expire. If there is really a robbery cultivator here... He has a headache. The cheapest way to buy a defensive array is fifty spiritual stones, but if he doesn't buy it, the robbery cultivator will be in trouble. Keep an eye on his house...
"Xu Yang, the mature season of Lingxu grass is coming. Be careful of being stared at. You have just married a beautiful wife, so be careful."
"I know, Brother Li, I'm leaving first."
Xu Yang trotted for a while, until he reached the main road, the place became lively, and the sounds of hawkers on both sides could be heard.
Xu Yang breathed a sigh of relief. This was the main road to the inner city and was much safer.
I came to a shop that mainly sells elixirs and medicinal materials. I have worked with this shop many times and it is trustworthy.
"Hey, isn't this Fellow Daoist Xu? I haven't seen you for a few days. Is your injury healed?"
The shopkeeper came out. He was at the sixth level of Qi training. When he saw a low-level monk like Xu Yang, his attitude was not indifferent, but more enthusiastic.
"Shopkeeper Xu, this time I'm selling twelve Lingxu grasses!" Xu Yang took out three packages.
Shopkeeper Xu chuckled and said, "Fellow Daoist Xu is really careful."
"I can't help it. It's not peaceful outside recently. I heard that there are robbery cultivators. Has Shopkeeper Xu heard about this?"
Shopkeeper Xu has many contacts and is well-informed. Xu Yang believes that he should know something.
Sure enough, shopkeeper Xu pulled Xu Yang aside and whispered softly: "The Xu family is going to fight with the beast-controlling Zhou family. Many Xu family masters guarding this place have been sent to the front line. Now the defense here is empty, and it is normal." It’s the day when the Lingxu grass is harvested, so there will be more calamity cultivators.”
"Why don't you take good care of the Xu family?"
The Xu family, which has been cultivating immortals for thousands of years, is the dominant one in the world of cultivating immortals in the northern region. It is said that the ancestors of the Jindan family are in charge, and there are more masters of foundation building.
After Qi training, it is time to build the foundation, and then the golden elixir. A golden elixir monk can kill dozens of foundation building masters at will. This is no joke.
"Care? Why care? We are casual cultivators with no roots and no feet. Why does the Xu family care about us? The Xu family and the beast-controlling Zhou family are fighting for a fishing ground right now. That is the important place. There are many spiritual fish in it, and there may be fish under the water. There is a spirit stone mine worth millions of spirit stones. If you were the head of the Xu family, would you care about that fishing ground or this place?"
Xu Yang sighed softly, nodded and said: "It seems that I need to be more careful in the future."
"Yes, especially be careful of the people around you. Many tribulation cultivators may be just like you and me, ordinary cultivators. Once you reveal your wealth, you will be in trouble."
"Thank you, shopkeeper, for reminding me, but I'm a smart husband, and my family is so poor that I can't even take the blame." Xu Yang shook his head and sighed.
Shopkeeper Xu also knew that Xu Yang's family was not very well off, so he didn't say anything. He took the three bags and opened them.
When he saw it, he was stunned for a moment. The Lingxu grass inside was bright in color, with thick stems and leaves, and thick roots. It didn't look like the Lingxu grass that could grow in barren spiritual land.
"One year's worth of Lingxu grass?"
Shopkeeper Xu was surprised.
"The shopkeeper has good eyesight." Xu Yang made an excuse and said: "I recently learned a new spiritual planting technique and learned a lot. When I planted spiritual void grass, I didn't expect the effect to be good!"
"Okay, that's really good."
Shopkeeper Xu didn't care about Xu Yang's excuse. Many Lingxu grass farmers living here are capable. During the harvest season, although the quantity of this type of Lingxu grass in one year is small, they can often be received. .
"Is the price still the same as before?" Xu Yang asked.
"Well, this kind of Lingxu grass costs 120 pieces of spirit, which works out to 14 pieces of spirit stone and 40 pieces of spirit. I'll put it together for you, so I'll give you 15 pieces of spirit stone."
Xu Yang knew that this was shopkeeper Xu's initiative to show his kindness.
In the past, shopkeeper Xu was only polite on the surface, but it was difficult to make big concessions on price. He probably saw that shopkeeper Xu had grown Lingxu grass for a year and wanted to cooperate with him for a long time in the future.
"Thank you very much, Shopkeeper Xu, for your generosity."
Xu Yang accepted the 15 pieces of spiritual stones the size of table tennis balls. After making sure there was nothing wrong with them, he put them in three bags and hid them in three places on his body.
After leaving here, I went to the grocery store next door and bought a bag of spiritual rice, a spiritual chicken, a dozen spiritual chicken eggs, and two ordinary half-spiritual grass fish.
When I was leaving, I saw a copy of Inner Qi Gong Technique on a pile of old bookshelves in the grocery store. This is a secular technique specifically for mortals to practice.
Although he didn't need it, he thought that if his wife could practice mortal martial arts, she would at least strengthen her body and prolong her life in the future, so he bought it.
Five spiritual stones were spent in the blink of an eye.
Then, he went to a shop that sold talismans and spent six spiritual stones to buy a first-grade low-grade flame talisman.
Things have not been very peaceful recently. I bought a flame charm for self-defense. It can deal with people below the fifth level of Qi training. Although it cannot be fatal, it can at least burn people.
There is no way, I can't afford the expensive attack charms, so I can only use this for self-defense.
After walking out of the shop, Xu Yang sighed: "Worldly things are indeed worthless, and precious skills are not as valuable as a disposable low-grade flame talisman."
Weighing the money bag in his hand: "Hey, there are only four spiritual stones left in the blink of an eye."
Due to financial constraints, Xu Yang did not dare to shop much. After leaving the store, he did not rush to stop by. Instead, he stopped at some stalls to see if there were any good second-hand defensive formations for sale.
Although I can't afford it now, I would like to inquire about the price.
