The first time he took care of plants, Yang Zhao didn't dare to do it himself, so he spent money to hire a teacher, Wang Xu, during the foundation-building period of organizing the planting land.
Wang Xu is different from Yang Zhao who comes to the planting field to live life. He is a serious student of spiritual plants. For example, the first thing he did when he saw Yang Zhao was to warn her not to bring the life grass to the planting field.
"There are many plants in the planting area that are competitors of the life grass. If you bring it here, if anything happens, it will affect its lifespan."
She pointed to a small tree next to Yang Zhao. Yang Zhao lowered his eyes and took a closer look. He found that his uncle was wrapped with a thin vine, and the vine stretched out a slender thread and was trembling toward him. Life grass clings to where it floats.
Yang Zhao pulled the water glass containing the life grass away. Within a few seconds, the slender tendrils tremblingly changed direction.
"Thank you fellow Taoist for reminding me, I will put the life grass back into my room right now."
She went upstairs to put the life grass back into the house, and then came back and took Xiaodouren to learn to take care of the planting land with Wang Xu.
Wang Xu was a little puzzled by Yang Zhao's actions.
"Fellow Daoist Yang, do you need to rely on external help for your first mission?"
"Fellow Daoist Wang, you also know that I am originally a heretic monk, and this competition does not have much binding force on me."
Yang Zhao smiled slightly: "Besides, if you look at the contents of this competition, you will know that the essence of these contents is to familiarize us with the daily operations of the garrison. If one day I really go to the battlefield, it will not be possible with my cultivation. Let me plow the ground and pull weeds here."
Wang Xu nodded thoughtfully: "Fellow Daoist Yang is right, then will you still follow me to get familiar with these vegetation?"
Yang Zhao: "Of course I have to learn. I don't have to pull it out myself, but I must know how to pull it out."
Then Wang Xu was surrounded by Xiaodou people and began to teach them how to distinguish them in the planting field.
Yang Zhao's main task is to help translate some simple knowledge points taught by teacher Wang Xu. Although these Xiaodou people are learning spoken English in this area, there is a difference between self-study and face-to-face communication with people.
Yang Zhao didn't expect that there were so many things to pay attention to when cleaning up the planting area.
For example, some grasses are not really dry when they are dry, and some trees are more problematic the more they grow; some cannot bloom and will die after blooming; some must grow on trees and will cause disaster when they fall to the ground.
The Xiaodou people started to argue while listening. If they didn't have pen and paper in their hands, they would even think of writing everything down in their notebooks.
He would also draw inferences from one instance and raise some issues that Wang Xu had ignored.
Wang Xu was very satisfied with the learning speed of these Xiaodou people. Originally, the cleaning area assigned to Yang Zhao by Yao Guangshu was not large, and the assigned tasks were simple. He finished teaching the precautions in a short time, took the money and returned to his jurisdiction.
After seeing off Wang Xu, Yang Zhao called the Xiaodou people together and pointed to other people who were busy in the planting field with a smile.
"See? Those are our customers. The better you perform, the more people will want to be lazy and hire you."
"My job in this planting area is not fixed. There may be a new assignment for me in a few hours. If you want to stay here longer..."
One of the Xiaodou people took Yang Zhao's words seriously.
"Comrade Yang, don't worry, we know how to do it."
Yang Zhao pointed to an open space next to him: "Then you guys work hard, I'll go over there and put up a billboard for you."
The five Xiaodou people nodded excitedly and began to tidy up the planting area with enthusiasm.
Yang Zhao walked to the open space next to him and sat down cross-legged. He calmed down and calmed his mind, then stuffed a foundation-building elixir into his mouth.
As soon as she took the elixir, the familiar nameless fire rose up in her meridians and became stronger and stronger. Fortunately, she was used to it. Yang Zhao endured the pain and began to stir the spiritual energy to practice the Sanqing Zhengyang Meridian.
After a while, traces of spiritual energy began to gather around her. Slowly, more and more spiritual energy gathered, the flow speed became faster and faster, and the scope of the influence became wider and wider.
At the beginning, no one paid much attention to this matter. Everyone focused on their own one-third of an acre of land and had no energy to care about others.
But as time went by, the scope of the spiritual energy spread became wider and wider, and more and more people noticed the movements on Yang Zhao's side.
They were both surprised by Yang Zhao's cultivation speed, and they were also ashamed of her lazy behavior.
"Really, why do such a dawdling come to participate in the competition? It's really a waste of time."
"What's the matter? They are in the foundation-building stage, which is different from those of us who are in the Qi-training stage."
"There's something about the foundation building period. If I had devoted myself to cultivation, I would have built the foundation long ago."
Although these people spoke harshly, their eyes still glanced this way unconsciously.
When they found out that she was very absorbed in cultivation and would not react to their gazes, they changed their eyes to the bright light.
Gradually, some people pretended to pass by Yang Zhao's planting land casually, took a look at the work of the Xiaodou people, and gathered together to murmur.
"I didn't expect these tractors to be made very carefully and have a good memory. Where did he find these people?"
"Didn't you hear that? They took the money."
"The same goes for those who collect money. No matter how much I teach them, some mortals can't escape the word stupid, as if their brains are born unable to turn."
"This is what ordinary people do when they don't read enough."
"If I had these little bean people, I wouldn't have to waste time pulling weeds here. Is this kind of work useful to us monks?"
"But this is a competition, how dare you be lazy?"
"this……"
These Qi-training monks still hesitate to hire people to help them complete their tasks.
But the two foundation-building stages on the same floor didn't have so many worries, and they all came together one by one.
In particular, Wang Xu stood by and watched the Xiaodou people working. From time to time, he would give a few words of advice. When he saw that the Xiaodou people could not understand his language, he would also demonstrate it himself.
When Yang Zhao exhaled and finished the exercise, Wang Xu came over.
"Fellow Daoist Yang, I have a heartfelt request. Can you lend me one or two of these tractor beans? Don't worry, I can give you money."
Yang Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly: "Fellow Daoist Wang, aren't you worried about the competition?"
Wang Xu smiled: "I went back and thought about Fellow Daoist Yang's speculation about the competition, and I realized that it makes sense. I have already established the foundation. Is there really someone who wants me to come over and pull the weeds?"
"That's the truth." A clear and melodious female voice interrupted. They turned around and saw that it was another foundation-building monk who was assigned to the third floor with them.
"Fellow Daoist Yang, I know you have a lot of magic beans on you. Find a smart guy and give me a few. This will save my clothes from getting stained with dirt."
