Zhao Tian was embarrassed when he saw Xiaohu carrying two burdens and said, "You're too polite. We will give the silver to Mr. Liu later for our purchase. Mr. Liu is here to help. We are already interested. We can't take advantage of Mr. Liu in vain."
Wei Jing refused and said: "I don't know if I can help. I know the situation in your village. I will wait until your village has passed this difficulty."
Zhao Tian saw that Mr. Liu did not accept their kindness and did not force it. Instead, he invited him to sit down and drink tea to express his thanks. Xiaohu and the others were also sent out to distribute food.
Everyone, after drinking tea for a while, Wei Jing glanced at Chengdao beside him and asked Zhao Tian: "Village Chief Zhao, did anything different happen before the crops failed?"
Zhao Tian thought about it carefully and replied: "About five months ago, one day a black light suddenly flashed in the depths of the northern forest, but it disappeared quickly. Other people in the village also saw it, and everyone suggested looking for it. The nearby [Orchid Town] police officer will help check.
However, the detectives could not find anything in the end. At first, everyone was afraid that something bad would happen, but after a month, nothing happened, and everyone almost forgot about it.
It's just that when the harvest is almost over, the crops begin to wither. Now Mr. Liu, if you ask, think about it, maybe it has something to do with it. "
Mr. Wang, the scholar, also said at this time: "There has been no crop failure in the village for many years. We asked the government herbalist of Lanhua Town for help. When he came, he said that the crops would lose their life and the land would gradually become dry. , he said that his ability was limited and he couldn’t help, so he left.”
Master Xia said dissatisfiedly: "Xiao Zhao and Xiao Wang, how many times have you gone to see the herbalist from the government? If it weren't for the mayor of Lanhua Town, who has a relationship with the government master and Xiao Zhao, and followed you to speak, otherwise he would also Not coming.
The most hateful thing is that when they come to our village, they look around the farmland, look for dirt, say a few words and then leave! You also told us to move away from the village, which is our root, and you said we could go there! "Master Xia also shouted at the end.
Zhao Tian's eyes also became a little gloomy: "The other party also told the truth. Wasn't there a herbalist who passed by this village three days ago and made the same judgment?"
Master Xia stood up excitedly and replied: "I haven't seen him come back since he went to the northern forest. No matter what others say, this village is our home. We can go anywhere."
Mr. Wang waved his hand to Master Xia and persuaded him: "Calm down! Master Xia, we will not abandon the village. Isn't Mr. Liu here to help now?"
Wei Jing also advised: "Actually, one person's power is limited, and everyone needs to help. Master Xia, before things get to the worst point, there will be more solutions than problems. Don't give up until the end."
Zhao Tian's eyes lit up after hearing this and he said: "Young master Liu is right. Just like the young people in our village also go to the towns to work and then buy food to come back to tide over the difficulties, don't give up until the end."
After taking a few breaths, Master Xia sat down and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Liu is offended. You are right. Young people have not given up, and we elders cannot give up either."
Wei Jing continued: "Village Chief Zhao, without further ado, can I go to the farmland now to check it out?"
Zhao Tian and others were also about to ask Mr. Liu to go to the farmland immediately, but they had just sat down and it was hard to talk about it, so the three of them immediately led Wei Jing there.
In fact, they didn't know that Wei Jing had made an appointment with Song Qingji and others to meet in Orchid Town three days later. It would take him half a day to use Qinggong at the seventh level of Qi. Of course, Rutong would only take him two hours to fly. But he said it was too exciting and rejected Tong Yixin.
Everyone immediately moved forward, and Wei Jing learned that after careful questioning, he learned that the destination was farmland to the east of the village. As they were moving forward, Tong Yixin suddenly asked: "You are leaving the convoy like this, are you afraid that your second uncle will find you?" Whereabouts?"
At this time, Wei Jing distributed the dried meat strips on his body to a thin child and said: "Maybe? But I don't want to regret it. Now that I see the smiles of these children, I think about it and I won't regret it when I am old." Touching The child's head is behind him before moving forward.
However, Tong Yixin said with heartache: "The piece of silver you exchanged for the piece of beautiful jade, but the dried meat you bought belongs to me. Do you know that my heart is hurting?"
Wei Jing didn't care about Tong Yixin, a living treasure, and followed the village chief and others.
Soon after, everyone came to what should have been green and lush farmland, but now only patches of withered crops and cracked land were left.
Tong Yixin said with rare seriousness: "Xiao Zhao, the herbalist they hired is right. Not only the crops, but also the earth is losing its life." As an ancient phoenix, it is also a mutated species and is very sensitive to the smell of all things. There is no difficulty in seeing the flow of life.
Zhao Tian said helplessly to Wei Jing who was inspecting the farmland: "At the beginning, no matter how we irrigated, even diversion of river water could not save the land from drought, and even the use of [agricultural liquid] refined by herbalists did not improve the crops. .”
Hearing that the agricultural solution had no effect, Wei Jing frowned and understood that the situation was a bit bad. The agricultural solution was just like the nutrient solution used by humans on earth in previous lives to improve the internal situation.
There are some skilled herbalists who can prepare different agricultural solutions for individual land or plants. Of course, the village uses only ordinary agricultural solutions, but even if it is not specific to the situation, it will have some effect.
When Wei Jing was about to say something, Chengdao, the ink gun wrapped in white cloth behind his back, vibrated slightly. Wei Jing felt that Chengdao had discovered something and was attracted to it.
You must know that enlightenment is a weapon and spirit formed by heaven and earth. What can attract him are either weapons and secret treasures that are mutually reinforcing and incompatible, or other heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
In the world, why do people who get secret treasures eventually become famous all over the world? In addition to their strength, their secret treasures will resonate with other secret treasures or treasures of heaven and earth, like a compass indicating that there is something in a certain direction.
Wei Jing, when he was watching the memories of the masters before they became enlightened in the cave, he already knew that they all found other treasures of heaven and earth with a little bit of direction.
At this time, he couldn't laugh or cry and said to Tong Yixin: "It's really as you said, enlightenment feels that a treasure from heaven and earth has appeared."
Tong Yixin said with his head raised to the sky: "Look, I just said that there will definitely be one. You can just follow me from now on..."
He ignored Tong Yixin and said to Zhao Tian and the others: "Village Chief Zhao, I found that the farmland was absorbing life. Although there was very little movement, I found that the source came from the north. I want to go to the northern forest to check immediately." Wei Jing believed in his own judgment.
The predecessor Wei Jing helped his father manage the business when he was a child. He could not practice cultivation, so he read all the books in the family, and sometimes went to outside booksellers to buy books. Even after he was working as a coolie, he did not change. Although his His identity has changed, but he can still go to the family library. If he is placed on earth, he will be either a top student or a prodigy.
Of course, the current Wei Jing has also fully absorbed and used it. Knowing the current situation, ordinary herbalists will be careless, just like the herbalist from the government.
Zhao Tian worriedly said: "Mr. Liu, a herbalist went to the northern forest three days ago. There is no news yet. We have sent people to the government to ask for help. They are almost here."
Scholar Mr. Wang also said: "It is better to wait until there are more people before taking action, Mr. Liu."
Before Master Xia could speak, Wei Jing had already said: "Needless to say, Village Chief Zhao, you also said that there was no news about that gentleman three days ago. If I go now, I may have news about him or help him. You don't want to Can you solve the problem quickly? I promise you will come back tomorrow."
The three of Zhao Tian also wanted to solve the problem earlier. They all knew the situation in the village, and they didn't want to know what happened to the herbalist earlier.
After the three of them discussed for a while, Master Xia gave Wei Jing a palm-sized bamboo tube and said, "If anything happens to you, light the bottom of the bamboo tube and turn it up. We will also know where to find you."
Wei Jing, after thanking him, immediately set off towards the northern forest. Of course, he didn't know that as soon as he left, the hired detectives would arrive at the village chief's house.
