In the early morning, Wu Gen was woken up by Mu Bai's hoe. Last night I had a great conversation with my concubine on a moonlit night, and the conversation was so fruitful that I didn't return until dawn.
"Boy, get up and start working." Mu Bai said angrily, as if he were looking at a pig that had eaten its own cabbage.
Wu Gen quickly got up from the bed and hurriedly heated up yesterday's fish soup to serve as breakfast for the four of them.
Watching Mu Bai and Yuhao eating crispy rice with fish soup, Wu Gen felt a little bad.
Yuhao chewed the rice and raised the bowl in her hand, "Wu Gen, it's not that I won't give it to you. You are new here. Although Tian Yan Rice has a strong spiritual energy, eating too much will kill you if it is not replenished. Yes. As for me, I have been eating this since I was a child, so I am used to it. When you recover in a few days, I will get some Tianyan rice for you."
Mu Bai coughed twice at the side, and Yu Hao said a little dissatisfied: "Master, you still have two tanks of Tianyan rice there, so what if you eat some, don't be too stingy."
"After dinner, come with me to the back mountain to hoe the fields." Mu Bai couldn't compete with his apprentice, so he turned his attention to Wu Gen.
Wu Gen nodded and drank the last drop of fish soup in the bowl. The fish in this big lake is really delicious.
After diligently washing the dishes, Wu Gen followed Mu Bai to the main room. Turning around the wall, a door suddenly appeared. Wu Gen couldn't help but wonder why the layout of this house was so weird.
Mubai gently pushed open the inconspicuous wooden door, and a faint mist floated into the room. A breath of fresh air enters the nose, as if taking a panacea, and the whole body feels very comfortable.
Walking outside the door, there is another world in front of you.
Light clouds and mist lingered between the sky and the earth, and soft light spread to every corner. There is a hint of coolness after the rain in the air, and the vegetation emits a faint fragrance. In the distance, there is an isolated peak standing in the clouds and mist. Along the peak, white clouds and mist surround it in circles, as if wearing jade bracelets one by one.
Near the door was a vegetable patch, sparsely covered with unknown vegetation, and some fields were only half plowed, with no crops planted.
"This place is full of spiritual energy. Although you don't have the qualifications to practice qi, being here for a long time will be beneficial to your body. After your body recovers, you can use the formation to temper it. Now, let's dig out that piece of land first." Mu Bai He spoke calmly and pointed to a field in the distance.
"Thank you, Master Wood." Looking at the small field, Wu Gen felt no resistance in his heart. To be honest, in a place with such a strong spiritual energy, it is worth spending money to stay for a few days. Besides, it is just helping others dig the land. This business can only make a profit but not a loss.
Reaching out to take the hoe from Mu Bai's hand, Wu Gen's body sank suddenly, his face looking a little weird. Yesterday, I saw Mu Bai carrying this hoe easily, but I didn't expect it to be so heavy. After weighing it, it weighed no less than 500 kilograms.
Sure enough, people who have such a blessed land are not easy to mess with. Wu Gen secretly complained in his heart, grabbed the hoe with both hands and walked towards the field.
Seeing this, Sha Zhi Mo also hurriedly squeezed forward, wanting to go with Wu Gen. Mubai's eyes glanced lightly, and Sha Zhimo was immediately frightened to the point of retreating, and he stood obediently in the main room without daring to move. At his level, he can naturally sense the frightening aspects of the old man.
Yuhao squeezed in with a smile, made a face at Mubai, and gently closed the door.
Looking at the wooden door standing abruptly on the ground behind him, Wu Gen was quite speechless. When I walked around the door, I saw that there was nothing there. It was as if a door had been inserted into the ground. The formation here was really magical.
"This is Junshan, and ordinary people don't have the opportunity to come in." Walking in the fields with her hands behind her back, Yu Hao introduced with a little pride, "It's a pity that you are not a Qi practitioner, otherwise you would have made a lot of money here."
Wu Gen shrugged indifferently. In fact, for a martial artist, although he cannot store spiritual energy in his body, abundant spiritual energy is also beneficial to himself. Not to mention anything else, the vitality of his body is already ready to activate, and he can become active out of thin air. In this way, the injuries on the body can recover faster.
Moreover, Wu Gen also has the means of Xuanyuan Shu, which can absorb the innate energy to supplement himself. In a place with such abundant spiritual energy, there is naturally a lot more innate energy. This is a rare opportunity for the stable evolution of the human world.
"What's the point of staying here?" Wu Gen asked as he walked, kicking a piece of dirt on the ground and preparing to kick it away.
Suddenly, he froze on the spot, his body motionless, and his face gradually turned red, with a hint of eggplant purple in it.
A shrill scream resounded in the garden, and Wu Gen hugged his feet and wailed repeatedly. But he didn't want misfortunes to come singly. The hoe in his hand fell and hit the other foot again.
"Oh, by the way, I forgot to remind you. The soil here is as hard as gold and stone, and the ground is not easy to dig." Yu Hao squatted next to Wu Gen, making no secret of her gloating.
After giving him a stern look, Wu Gen limped to the ground, put his hoe down, sparks flew everywhere, and a shallow pit appeared on the ground.
Looking back at the field, which was more than a hundred feet long and two feet wide, I felt a little cold for a moment. It would take a lot of time to dig out the entire field. Could it be that Mu Bai regarded himself as free labor.
"Hey Yu, I think my injury will heal faster if I stay outside. Why don't we leave early." After thinking about this, Wu Gen flatly suggested to Yu Hao.
Yu Hao casually pulled up a piece of purple grass from the ground next to her and stuffed it into her mouth. She ate it like a radish, "You think it's so easy to open this door once. Every time you use the formation, you will consume a lot of energy." Spiritual energy, Master has spent a lot of money to let you in.
Therefore, I sincerely suggest that you finish plowing this land before the door opens again in three days. Also, let me tell you a little secret. When I was young, my master had a nickname called Thunderbolt. "
Gudong, Wu Gen swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said with emotion: "Master Mu, please don't worry, just leave these trivial matters to Xiao Wu."
Just like that, Wu Gen threw off his arms and started working in the fields like an ordinary farmer. Yu Hao, on the other hand, was like a supervisor, walking around with her hands behind her back, pulling out a few strange spiritual herbs from the field nearby and throwing them to Wu Gen.
Being able to grow in a place with such abundant spiritual energy, the essence contained in these spiritual herbs is extraordinary. Wu Gen discovered that he had robbed so many private spiritual plants that the family regarded as treasures, but they were not as rich in essence as the barnyard grass that was randomly pulled up here.
However, the spiritual herbs given by Yu Hao are sometimes not so reliable. For example, after he had just eaten a fire-attributed spiritual grass, he was thrown another ice-attributed one. Wu Gen suddenly felt like he was entering a volcano, but in the blink of an eye he seemed to have fallen into an icy abyss.
On the other hand, Yuhao is like a person who has nothing to do, no matter what kind of meat and vegetables are not tabooed.
In this space, there is no sunrise or moonset, but the sky will get darker for three hours. Finally, dusk fell, and the surrounding clouds and fog gradually became thicker.
Wu Gen sat on the ridge of the field, his whole body aching as if falling apart, and lay down with a sigh. At the end of the day, I had eaten so much spiritual grass. Although I was not hungry, the ground was too hard. It took a lot of effort to climb less than twenty feet.
Yu Hao was chewing on a green fruit, sitting next to Wu Gen, and tossed one over, "Here."
Wu Gen stretched out his hand to take it. Looking at the fruit with its gleaming light and fragrant aroma, Wu Gen did not dare to eat it. Over the course of the day, I ate at least ten kinds of spiritual herbs with different properties. Up to now, Wu Gen still seems to have hundreds of naughty monkeys in his body, constantly writhing, and they dare not eat at will.
"Why do you eat so many spiritual herbs, but there is no difference?" Wu Gen looked at his two hands, one as red as rouge, and the other as white as frost, and asked with dissatisfaction.
"Because I have eaten a lot of spiritual herbs since I was a child, and I have long been used to it." Yu Hao said disapprovingly, "And my physique can be said to be able to freely accept most types of spiritual energy. It is for this reason that Master accepted me. Became his disciple."
Suddenly, Yuhao straightened up and said seriously: "Wu Gen, your body is not deep-rooted, and it is floating and hanging alone. I think it was a shortcoming when you were a child.
The reason why I accompanied you in is because I hope you can make use of the spiritual plants here to make up for it. As long as I'm here, you can eat whatever you want. No matter how distressed Master is, he can't take away this face.
After a few days, I will ask Master to open the Heavenly Furnace Formation and help you practice it, refine your body, and achieve even greater achievements in the future. "
Wu Gen couldn't help but feel sad, how could the gap between people be so big. My family has been eating spiritual grass since I was a child, and I could only eat a small amount of steamed buns when I was a child.
He took a vicious bite of the green fruit, and a warm feeling spread in his stomach, and the fatigue of the day suddenly disappeared.
"Hey, hello, what exactly is this place and why is there such a magical place in this world?" Wu Gen asked curiously.
"This is actually a secret realm in the Ascension Palace. It is a small space created by our ancestors with great magic power. There is a powerful formation at the exit of the secret realm. If the formation is activated, the secret realm will disappear from the real world.
Master is here not only to practice in the secret realm, but also to guard this place. As for what to guard, I don't know very well. Master has never explained it to me. By the way, in that mountain. "
As she spoke, Yuhao pointed to the shadowy hill in the dusk, "There is a cave in the mountain where clouds and mist come out all year round. Most of the clouds and mist in the secret realm come out from here.
The cave master here strictly prohibited me from entering, but when I was a child, I was naughty and the more I was not allowed to do it, the more I wanted to do it. Once, when the master was not paying attention, he sneaked in. But I didn't want to find a way out if I entered it. Fortunately, Master rescued me in time and saved my life.
That was also the only time Master beat me, but it hurt. From then on, I never dared to go near that cave again. "
Wu Gen looked at the hills in the distance and couldn't help but become curious. What kind of secrets are hidden in this mountain that actually allows the Dengtian Temple to send such a master to stay here permanently.
"I'm telling you, don't make any ulterior motives. If you fall into it, Master won't save you." Yu Hao looked at Wu Gen's eager expression and regretted telling him the secret for a moment.
Suddenly, his thoughts changed, and he took Wu Gen's arm and left, "Let's go, I will take you to find Tianyan rice. Tianyan grass grows at the foot of the mountain. It hides in the soil during the day and only comes out at night. It is very difficult to find." Humph, Master won’t let me eat it, so I’ll go find it myself.”
"Let's go." Upon hearing this, Wu Gen also suppressed his intention to take a rest and followed Yu Hao to the foot of the mountain happily.
