Chapter 857: Mutation in the Evil Cave (Part 1)
This is a fertile plain. The surface is covered with black soil rich in humus, which can produce almost a handful of oil. The square farmland is symmetrically distributed, covered with golden rice, and the heavy ears of wheat will The wheat stalks were bent under pressure, and each grain was as big as a fingernail.
The autumn harvest has arrived, and a large number of farmers are lining up side by side, waving sickles to harvest the grains quickly. They are sweating profusely, but with simple smiles on their faces, obviously full of the joy of the harvest. On the periphery of the farmland, there are teams of elite soldiers patrolling back and forth to prevent demonized creatures or lurking demons from destroying the fields.
This is the spiritual rice-yellow rice cultivated by the monks from the Royal Sacrifice Pavilion of the Song Dynasty led by Mu Linggong. Spirit rice is a major category of spiritual plants, compared to those spiritual plants that are equivalent to rare medicinal materials. As the saying goes, "Elixirs are three parts poison." Although elixirs are good, you should not take them too much. Even if you refine the elixir, taking too much will produce erysipelas. It is probably equivalent to the fact that if a mortal eats too much supplements, it will harm the body.
But spiritual rice is different. The nature of spiritual rice is milder and purer. It is equivalent to the food in spiritual plants. It can be better absorbed by the body. No matter how much you eat, the medicinal properties will not affect the body. It is better than simply absorbing heaven and earth. Reiki is more effective.
Therefore, as long as each sect has the conditions, they will open a part of the spiritual field in the mountain gate for planting spiritual rice, planting and harvesting spiritual rice, and using it to train disciples for their daily maintenance.
High-grade spiritual rice can even contain spiritual power of certain attributes, such as pure Yang pearl rice rich in positive spiritual power, emerald spiritual light rice rich in evil spirit power, topaz rice to calm the gods rich in earth spiritual power, rich in nourishing rice. The spiritually nourishing crystal glutinous rice, the eight-treasure merit rice grown with faith in Buddha, and so on.
Mu Linggong was born with spiritual roots, which is the strength of spiritual cultivation. He is proficient in the Yimu Taoist method of the successive days. He is also good at alchemy and has done a lot of research on spiritual rice. Based on the specific conditions of the Song Dynasty, he studied for many years with many cultivators in the Royal Sacrifice Pavilion who were good at this, and finally cultivated yellow rice.
Yellow rice is the lowest level spiritual plant, containing very little spiritual energy, and it cannot improve the cultivation level of practitioners above the level of refining energy.
But there are two biggest advantages, high output! Good to feed!
Compared with those delicate and picky spiritual plants, yellow rice only needs to take root in the richest black soil in the world, use fermented manure mixed with crushed spiritual stones as fertilizer, and water it with spiritual spring water diluted a hundred times. Can grow. And as long as the nutrition is sufficient, this kind of spiritual plant can produce thousands of kilograms of grain from one acre of land!
No matter how bad the spiritual plant is, it is still extraordinary. One tael of yellow rice contains enough nutrients and spiritual power to keep an ordinary person alive for three days! And after eating it, it can also speed up the recovery of physical fitness and injuries.
On weekdays, yellow rice and low-level monster meat such as water polo rats that are bred in large quantities can be used as logistic training supplies for the elite soldiers of the Song Dynasty, providing them with sufficient energy and blood. Only with sufficient logistical supplies can we train a large number of elite soldiers! Only then can the demonic disasters and internal rebellions in all directions be suppressed.
In times of emergency, it can also be used as food rations for the refugees who come to the city to seek refuge from disasters. It can resist the siege of a large number of demons for a long time and support the arrival of the imperial reinforcements.
It can be said that the Song Dynasty has been able to survive the natural and man-made disasters caused by the demonic disasters without causing a large number of casualties. The people of Li have generally had confidence in the Song Dynasty, and the large-scale planting of yellow rice is indispensable. !
But at this moment, the ground behind a row of farmers suddenly sank, revealing a dark pit. Two dark tentacles stained with viscous liquid shot out like arrows. Amidst the screams, the people suddenly disappeared. He entangled two farmers who had no time to react and dragged them into the hole.
Along with two shrill screams and a burst of chewing sounds, a strong smell of blood came from the cave. It was obvious that something bad had happened to both of them. But the monster in the cave didn't seem to have had enough, and it stretched out more tentacles to wrap around the farmers who were rolling and crawling away.
The soldiers beside the farmland had already reacted and were running towards the place quickly, but the distant water could not quench their thirst, and it would take them more than ten seconds to arrive. Seeing the surrounding farmers being entangled in tentacles again, crying and being dragged towards the entrance of the cave, they were about to become a meal for the underground monsters.
Suddenly, a streak of fire fell from the sky and went straight into the hole.
In an instant, the ground exploded, and with a roar of pain, a monster that looked like an earthworm but had several black tentacles emerged from the ground with its whole body on fire. It continuously secretes dark mucus and black smoke-like demonic energy in an attempt to extinguish the white flame on its body, but this white flame never goes out, constantly burning the monster's body, evaporating the mucus, and purifying the demonic energy.
Finally, the monster stopped struggling and turned into a dry and charred corpse.
You Longzi fell from the sky, cast a calming spell to calm the panicked farmers around him, showed his identity token and ordered the soldiers who arrived to strengthen patrols, and then began to carefully inspect the monster's body.
"Has the penetration of demonic energy reached this level? It even infected the underground spiritual veins, which turned the underground earthworms that were originally responsible for plowing the land into monsters." After the inspection, You Longzi frowned He frowned.
"Moreover, there is an evil aura that persists in the corpse. It seems to be the mutated product of the evil spirit of the evil god mixed with underground demonic energy and spiritual power. It seems that the evil power of 'Ten Thousand Touches of Dirty Mountain' has also begun to expand its scope of influence. Now. Aliguda, you are really restless."
Yu Longzi, who was originally flying to the coastal area "Kunxu Yuanhai" to inspect the situation along the way, also sensed the evil aura on the ground on the way, and took action in time to save the farmers.
But his face didn't look good.
Because of this increase in demonized creatures, he has discovered more than one incident. When he got here, he even discovered that the aura of the evil god had begun to affect the mutation of the monsters, which increased his worries about the situation.
Yellow rice farmland is crucial to maintaining the livelihood of local people. If the farmland is destroyed, the civil order that is still being maintained will inevitably fall into chaos. You Longzi immediately sent a flying talisman message to the worship pavilion in the nearby city to remind them to pay close attention. But he still had something important to do and had to leave.
This is true for the inland area suppressed by the "Xuanhuang Sky Net". The "Kun Xuyuan Sea" located on the coast, where the humane dragon energy radiation is weaker, may also have experienced more terrifying changes.
The uneasiness in You Longzi's heart became more and more intense. With a flash of sword light, the Taiping Flying Sword appeared at his feet. The sword light enveloped his body and transformed into a dragon-shaped air sword under the infusion of mana. Amidst the thunderous sound of billowing sword air, it moved forward in front of him. Flying towards the southeastern coastal area at ten times the speed.
Flying swords with evil-repelling properties are more sensitive to the aura of evil spirits. Along the way, whenever they sense the aura of evil spirits, a sword light with the power of thunder and fire will fall down and kill them.
Just like the wrath of the gods and the appearance of the thunder god, the people who were rescued or saw the scene along the way kowtowed to the sky, thinking that it was the dragon god coming to the world.
