It was afternoon when Xiao Ran returned to Jianjian Peak.

The master went to the imperial capital to buy wine and hasn't come back yet. Depending on his temperament, Xiao Ran wouldn't be surprised if he stopped by Goulan to listen to music, go to a gambling house to play dice, or go to the palace to pick up girls.

The autumn light on the top of Zhujian Peak is thick, but it is not hot.

Standing on the edge of the cliff and looking at the Zongzhi Mountains, it looks like a timeless and elegant ink painting. The scenery is superb.

Looking at the sword-holding peak under our feet, it looks like childish graffiti, which is really ugly.

Xiao Ran thought to himself, Master is ugly and refuses to do this and that all day long, but the place where he meditates and sleeps is the ugliest. Did drinking too much fake wine hurt his eyes?

He made up his mind to completely transform Zhijian Peak and make it even more beautiful than Baicao Peak, making it the most livable and famous mountain among Zongzhi Mountains.

Great harvest today.

Xiao Ran makes wine first.

Take out two stone jars.

A stone jar is used to hold mashed black yeast mushrooms and extract natural yeast.

Another stone jar is used to contain malt mold, hops, and starch from mashed wheat grains.

Half an hour later.

In the first tank, the yeast extraction is completed.

In the second vat, wrap it with gauze and squeeze out the wort.

The two tanks are mixed, filtered with diatomaceous earth, semi-sealed with bamboo chips, and then buried in the warm underground along the path of the spiritual veins to start fermentation.

At the beginning of fermentation, it directly enters the high-foaming stage. When the wort is particularly strong, you can hear the rustling sound and smell the aroma of wine.

If you have enough spiritual energy, stable geothermal energy, and good luck, you can drink malt sake before midnight.

After brewing, just wait for the malt to ferment.

Next, Xiao Ran plans to open up several wastelands.

The area at the top of Zhijian Peak is about the size of four or five football fields.

The disciple's room and the broken sword in the middle are slightly higher, and the rest of the place is considered flat.

After an on-site inspection at the peak, Xiao Ran made a perfect plan.

south.

The south side is the direction of the door of the disciple's room.

The south side has the flattest terrain and the largest space, accounting for about one-third of the peak.

Flower seas, medicinal fields, and wheat valleys are all arranged.

As soon as the gate is opened, it is open, rich, and the stretching valley and the sea of ​​clouds are connected in a line.

Therefore, the positioning of the south is: planting area!

east.

There are rocks and lonely pines on the east cliff, which is where Master drinks most often.

There is also a node of underground cold water in the east. A deep pool can be dug and a thoroughfare can be used to divert water to form a stream, which can then flow into the strange rocks to form a small waterfall.

The landscape of strange rocks and lonely pine trees suddenly became artistic.

In addition, fish can be raised in the waterhole and fishing can also be done.

A pavilion and chess table can be built around it, which is comfortable enough.

The vegetation is covered with pine, maple and cherry blossoms, which is quiet enough.

Therefore, the east side is positioned as: leisure area!

west.

The west cliff is the place where domestic water is discharged. The waste can be used to build vegetable gardens and fruit trees on the west side, or to raise some spiritual animals.

Therefore, the positioning of the west side is: fruit and vegetable area!

North.

The terrain in the north is slightly higher, so planting large moso bamboo can create the feeling of a mountain behind.

In the bamboo forest, you can plant some shade-loving flowers and plants to attract some small animals such as rabbits and squirrels, and you can occasionally bloom.

The terrain of Beiya is steep, facing Baicao Peak where Yin Yue Zhenren lives.

This happens to be a meeting point of warm water, so you can dig a hot spring pool.

The sky is bright and cloudy, and the water mist is curling up. After hard work, come here to soak in the hot springs at night, relax your body and mind, and click...

Therefore, the positioning of the north is: health area!

Planning is complete.

Xiao Ran checked the storage space.

Tools, seeds, trees, seedlings, and fertilizers are all complete.

It's a pity that he is still a mortal, and the amount of the project is too large to be completed in one day. It will take at least a week to complete.

It's already evening.

The sunset dyed the western half of the sky red.

Come to the west.

Because he had to eat and drink every day, Xiao Ran picked the most important vegetable bed to start with.

Daily vegetable planting and yeast mushroom cultivation must be arranged as soon as possible.

Take out the hoe.

Under the setting sun, Xiao Ran began to reclaim the wasteland with hoe after hoe.

After a while, I suddenly heard a soft, cold female voice coming from behind.

"Jiang Chuyan from Xiaoxufeng, please see Elder Lingzhou."

Jiang Chuyan?

Xiao Ran was slightly startled.

Is she the girl who was rejected by her master because her talent was too high?

Good guy!

The disciple challenge will only start tomorrow. Are you going to come and find trouble today?

If Chen Gongxing met by chance and Jiang Chuyan took the initiative, what kind of surprise would Ye Fan bring him?

Xiao Ran just felt a headache and continued to plow the land without looking back:

"Master has traveled far away for business, please come back."

Unexpectedly, the soft female voice behind him suddenly cheered up.

"That's just right - I'm here to find you!"

Can't hide.

Xiao Ran turned around and picked up the hoe. In the setting sun, he couldn't see his face clearly, but he could only vaguely see a petite figure.

He is about one and a half meters tall, with a pair of thin legs sticking out in the air, but they are straight and slender.

Is it a child?

Xiao Ran suddenly had the mentality of an elder.

"Looking for me? Call me uncle first."

The girl's voice was soft and soft, with a hint of hoarseness, but her tone was cold.

"You killed my Xiaohong, and you still want me to call you uncle?"

Xiao Ran was stunned.

"Xiaohong refers to the red-spotted tiger?"

The soft and cold voice trembled slightly.

"Sure enough, it was you who killed me!"

Good guy!

What a coincidence today, right?

If it weren't for the suppressed anger in this girl's tone, as well as her not-so-intelligent figure and voice, Xiao Ran would have suspected that the other party was using the tiger as bait to deliberately lure him into the bait.

"It wants my life. Why don't I kill it and keep it as an offering to my ancestors?"

Xiao Ran said bluntly.

"you--"
