After harvesting the "Qianzhong millet", it needs to be threshed and dried in the sun.
If it were someone else, it would take time to "thresh the grain" and time to dry it in the sun.
For Xu Ke, this is not a problem.
The "Object Expelling Technique" turned into an innate spell was released, and with one roll of mana, the grains were pulled directly from the ears of a pile of "Thousand Bells Millet".
Soon, the floor outside the house was covered with a thick layer of "Qianzhong Millet" millet.
After the threshing was completed, Xu Ke cast the "drying technique" on the millet spread on the floor!
So...the threshing and drying were all done.
Even the straw left after threshing, Xu Ke used a "drying technique" and stored it as firewood.
However, with so much grain at home, there is still a lack of a granary.
In the past, Xu Ke had been farming for two years before he "awakened". However, after paying the rent for the "Thousand Bell Millet" harvested, most of the rest was sold for spiritual stones, and there was no thought of storing a large amount of "Thousand Bell Millet" millet.
Now, if Xu Ke wants to use "Qianzhong millet" to brew spiritual wine, he must have a granary to store the millet.
Build a granary?
It is necessary to quarry stone and wood and prepare materials. Moreover, I don’t know much about architecture, so I have to hire someone to do it, which is very troublesome.
Then dig a cellar!
With my current physical ability and strength, it is not difficult to dig a cellar.
The only thing to consider is groundwater. There is a well in the backyard, which means there is underground water here. If you dig into the water vein, haha, it will not be a cellar, but a pool.
Of course, this is not difficult to solve!
As long as you have learned water spells, you will know how to sense water vapor through your own spiritual power.
Xu Ke learned the "Rainfall Technique" and was already proficient in it even though he didn't spend much time practicing it.
What's more, Xu Ke's "Lin Technique", although it is a healing spell, is also a water spell. After the "Ganlin Technique" became an innate spell, Xu Ke's innate instinct was to sense water vapor.
Now that the conditions are met, let’s get started.
With a thought, he triggered the true talisman of Ganlin in his Dantian. The spell was stored but not released, and a wave of spiritual power surged out.
Letting go of this spiritual energy fluctuation and focusing on the ground, Xu Ke began to carefully sense the nearby underground water veins.
There’s a lot of water!
Uh... I'm talking about underground water.
In Xu Ke's spiritual induction, a vein of underground water passed through the backyard. The seeping groundwater spread and filled with water vapor everywhere.
Moisture was detected under the backyard and the house, but not under the floor outside.
So...the cellar can only be dug under the outside floor?
This is not a problem, just open the exit in the house and dig the cellar under the floor.
Thinking of this, Xu Ke turned around and went back to the bedroom.
Behind the wall of the bedroom near the floor, Xu Ke chose a location as the entrance to the cellar.
Picking up the long sword, Xu Ke used the "Zhengfa Sword Art", a move of "drawing the ground as a prison", and slashed hard to the ground.
At the same time, the "True Talisman of Sharpness" was activated, and a sharp edge bloomed at the edge of the sword!
Holding the sword with both hands, drawing the ground as a prison, the sword blade drew a square sword mark five feet long and wide on the ground, which went one foot deep into the ground.
Immediately, within the square sword marks, sword energy erupted, whistling in all directions and moving back and forth!
In an instant, the earth and rocks in the middle of the square sword marks were all cut into inch-large pieces by the sword energy.
Sheathing the sword, Xu Ke used a burst of magic to open the window to the backyard, and then...with a wave of his hand, the object-repelling technique was activated, rolling up a pile of earth and stone fragments from the square sword mark, and flying out of the window. Sprinkle in the backyard.
Because Xu Ke's cultivation level is still at the third level of Qi training, the objects that can be captured by the expulsion technique only weigh one thousand kilograms at most.
After several times in a row, the earth and rock fragments just cut out by "drawing the ground as a prison" were emptied.
After clearing away the debris of earth and rocks, a cave entrance one foot deep into the ground and five feet long and wide appeared in front of Xu Ke.
A little below his feet, the "Light Body Technique" was applied, and Xu Ke's figure floated down and landed at the bottom of the cave entrance.
One foot deep, which is just over three meters, is not enough.
So Xu Ke once again "painted the ground as a prison" and dug down another foot. A depth of more than six meters is enough.
After removing the earth and rock fragments from the ground, Xu Ke dropped to the bottom of the cave, pointed in the direction of the ground, raised his sword again, and then... continued to move earth.
Just like this, while digging a hole and moving soil, Xu Ke quickly dug a passage directly to the bottom of the floor.
The passage is two meters high and one and a half meters wide. It is square at the bottom and semicircular at the top. It is also more than four meters thick from the ground, so there is no need to worry about it being stepped on.
After digging out the passage, Xu Ke began to dig the cellar.
It will definitely not work to dig a large cavity underground, as it will easily sink. Therefore, Xu Ke could only dig a "room" at a certain distance to maintain sufficient support strength between underground cavities.
Once you’ve decided on the plan, keep digging!
Perhaps because his ancestors lived in caves in ancient times, which had a genetic influence, Xu Ke became addicted to digging.
It wasn't until he heard the "chirp" of the Purple Skylark looking for Xu Ke that Xu Ke came out of the hole.
Then I discovered... this digging actually lasted all night.
Of course, the efficiency of this all-nighter is still good. Four "rooms" have been dug out under the floor, totaling more than 100 square meters.
However, in order to prevent the excavated earth and rocks from piling up like mountains, Xu Ke did not empty the "room" and piled it all with earth and gravel.
Next, we only need to find a place to throw soil and gravel, and then repair and strengthen the cellar. Not only can it be used as a granary, but it can also be used as a secret "cave" for practice.
So, if you want to cultivate immortality, how can you do it without a cave?
To strengthen the "cave", you also need to learn an earth spell.
Last time I was in the "Baobao Zhai" in Jizhenfang City, when I was looking through the "Spell Catalog", I seemed to have seen an earth spell called "Concrete into Stone", which should be enough.
Xu Ke smiled, reached out to touch the purple skylark's feathers, and walked out of the room.
Go out to the ground.
Looking at the "Qianzhong Millet" millet piled in front of him, Xu Ke felt helpless again on his face.
The last time I harvested silver leaf jute, I was robbed by thieves. These grains are piled up at home. If I go out to buy spells, I'm afraid someone will steal them.
Alas, the security environment is still not good!
Forget it, don't worry for now, let's wait until the rent collector comes.
If the rent collector didn't come and the millet piled on the floor suddenly disappeared, everyone would know that something was wrong, and my "cave" might be exposed.
Gao Zhengzheng, Senior Brother Gao, when will you come? I waited so hard for you.
Then... before Gao Zhengzheng arrived, an autumn rain came.
That night, while Xu Ke was sitting cross-legged under the eaves, practicing and guarding the house against thieves, he suddenly felt that the water vapor in the sky was gathering.
The water vapor is gathering, could it be raining?
This made Xu Ke feel nervous. He quickly stood up and activated the "object expulsion technique". He hurriedly moved the millet into the house and stacked it in the main room.
After finishing his work, Xu Ke was shocked to find...
Damn it, I’m so anxious!
If it rains, it rains! Even if the millet gets wet, wouldn't a drying technique easily solve the problem?
Forget it, we’ve already moved out, we can’t move out anymore, right? It is also good to prevent millet from getting exposed to rain.
For me, getting wet is just a matter of drying technique, but those hard-working farming disciples who have not learned drying technique are in trouble.
Out of goodwill, Xu Ke raised his hand and released a palm thunder, and the roar shook the surrounding area!
"It's thundering! It's raining! It's time to harvest the grain!"
Xu Ke yelled at the top of his lungs.
This reminder is enough!
"Fuck! What kind of thunder are you releasing in the middle of the night? You are mentally ill!"
There was a burst of yelling in the distance.
Well, the reminder doesn't work!
I don't care about you anymore!
