Chapter 290 Manni Country Draft

Jin Ziming smiled slightly and said, "Ranyi, I seem to understand."

There is no protective shield to isolate the outside world, no imitation with soul power, and no transportation of soil, bees, butterflies, etc.

With a thought in his mind, he easily contacted the little grass in the courtyard where he communicated daily.

The wild man can sense its joys, sorrows, needs, likes and dislikes. When a sea breeze blows, the grass trembles with pleasure and sighs with satisfaction.

The mangy man conveyed his thoughts: "There is not enough rain this year, so the flowering may be affected to some extent."

Xiaocao nodded slightly and said, "Yes, but what can we do?"

…

Jin Ziming told his fiancée the conversation just now, and she was stunned.

I have to admire this cultivator in my heart for actually being able to communicate with Xiaocao. All these years of hard work have finally not been in vain.

Ye Xianzi herself, using the "Way of Dreams" to sneak into the daytime exploration, has initially achieved results and is about to open the door.

The reckless man uses his mind power to communicate with heartless beings, but it is still limited to grass species and can only be effective within five feet.

But with this beginning, and using it as a stepping stone, it should be easy to connect with other plants, it's just a matter of time.

The disadvantage of short coverage distance is not a problem. His ultimate goal is to communicate with the gray-white aura, which is within his own body.

Jin Ziming took Ye Xianzi in his arms, and the two looked at each other hand in hand, excited and sweet.

"Ranyi, I have lived here for nearly five years. It's time to leave. Let's go to sea tomorrow, okay?"

Ye Xianzi looked around the mountains, the sea and the small courtyard, reluctant to leave. Ever since she met Jin Ziming, the two had never stayed together for such a long time, which made her extremely sentimental.

After a moment, she smiled softly and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Jin Ziming went to the city, bought seafood and vegetables, and prepared to cook a dinner for the beautiful woman.

He found a teahouse and asked: "Boss, what are the beautiful scenic spots that can be visited from Xizhao to the sea?"

"If you have enough time, of course you can go to Manni Country. The main island there is about to hold the ten-year draft, which is very lively.

The scenery of this country is very beautiful, and you will not regret it if you go there."

"What draft?"

"It means selecting those with spiritual roots from the boys in the audition. Once selected, they can follow the masters to cultivate immortality, and from then on go to heaven and earth. It is really an incredible opportunity."

The mangy man went to other shops to inquire, and the answers were highly consistent, and they all recommended Manniguo. He was interested, so he went back to discuss with Ranyi, and the fairy naturally had no objection.

He liked liveliness and was most willing to ride on a big ship with ordinary people. However, thinking that his fiancée preferred peace and quiet and did not want their warm world to be disturbed, he had no choice but to rent a medium-sized seagoing ship and set sail the next day.

Now, in the form of a mortal, he returns to the blue sea, just like when the two of them went to the cross-border exchange meeting together.

Under the sun, the clear sea surface is like silk, reflecting silver light, twinkling.

The wooden boat rides the wind and waves, splashing white waves; above the head, three big gray birds "escort" and send out melodious calls from time to time.

The sea breeze was blowing on their faces, the sun was warm, everything was so comfortable and cozy. They were lucky enough to see pink dolphins up close and the giant gray whale from a distance.

Eight days later, the wooden ship approached the main island of Mani Kingdom. As the draft was approaching, the port was extremely crowded.

After finally landing, Jin Ziming paid the fare and walked ashore hand in hand with his beautiful lady on the wooden plank.

After walking through the bustling crowd and walking into the city, they found that most inns were full. Finally, they stayed in a quiet courtyard in the north of the city for a higher price.

The two were in high spirits and immediately went out for a tour to enjoy the local customs and beautiful scenery. Of course, they were mainly looking for unique and beautiful objects, as well as good wine and food.

In the evening, they sat down in a small shop in the bamboo forest and ordered cold drinks and snacks. Jin Ziming casually used his spiritual consciousness to detect the main island, and suddenly showed a surprised expression.

"It's interesting, Ranyi, use your soul to look at this island."

After a while, Fairy Ye couldn't help but sigh: "How could this happen? I thought this was the territory of the human race."

"Yeah, I'm also wondering that this island is actually divided into two distinct areas. The south and southwest are where sea beasts live, and the other areas are where humans gather."

"The strangest thing is that there is actually peace between humans and animals." Ye Xianzi sighed.

"Most of them are ordinary sea beasts, with only more than a hundred first-level monsters and twenty second-level monsters.

Among the third-level seals, except for one early-stage seal and one mid-stage seal, the late-stage seal should be the leader here." Mang Han said.

"The palace is built on the east side of the main island. It has the atmosphere of monks and the number of people is close to two hundred."

"This group of people have different costumes and have very different auras in their techniques. They are mostly a group of casual cultivators."

"Hey, their leader is a late-stage Nascent Soul. How can they tolerate the 'stragglers' led by the third-level monsters to be stationed on the island?" Ye Ranyi said in surprise.

"No matter, as long as you don't provoke us, let him go."

A middle-aged woman and her daughter were busy in the store, while the man stood outside the door, doing nothing.

Jin Ziming called him over and asked: "Boss, could you please tell us about the situation in Manni Country and the draft."

The male host was quite talkative and immediately said:

"Are the two guests from the interior? In addition to the main island, Mani Country has seven large subsidiary islands in the outer sea, where many people live.

Every ten years, children between the ages of five and ten on the eight islands will be selected to select particularly spiritual children. Ten soul children will be produced on each outer island and thirty on the main island.

A total of one hundred people came to the main island for four days of assessment, and ten people were finally selected. Five of them stayed in the palace to practice, and the other five went to the mainland to join a fairy sect.

The selected person's family will receive a generous salary every year, and they will have no worries about food and clothing.

Even the ninety people eliminated will receive a one-time reward, enough for the whole family to live a good life for ten years."

Jin Ziming and the fairy looked at each other, even more confused.

"Why would a group of casual cultivators send soul boys to a sect inland? Could it be that the late Nascent Soul belongs to a certain cultivation sect?"

He couldn't think of the reason, so he simply put it aside and continued to ask: "Who will preside over the assessment?"

"Of course he is the immortal in the palace. I heard that the most powerful immortal is the one the emperor calls his grandfather. He looks quite young."

"What's going on with the sea beasts in the south and southwest of the main island?"

"Haha, they have lived on the island for many years, and everyone has become accustomed to them. There were incidents of hurting people in the early years, but we never heard of them again."

"Boss, when does the draft start?"

"In five days, the soul boys from each island will arrive one after another in the past few days. There are many people watching the excitement on the pier. If you find a teahouse to sit down on the road where they enter the city, you might be able to see them."

Jin Ziming was very satisfied and left after giving the reward. The next day, the two continued shopping and bumped into a team of soul children.

They came from Xuanji Island and were passing through the city, preparing to move into the palace.

Jin Ziming looked at the ten children curiously, and his eyes accidentally met a girl's, and his calm heartstrings were struck.

The child has light brown skin and is of medium height. He cannot be called a beauty, but he is still pretty.

She is about seven years old. Her big and smart eyes reveal a calmness beyond her years, and she looks very sensible.

She was wearing a whitish light blue dress and her thin figure sitting on an open carriage made the man feel inexplicably close and affectionate.

The little girl couldn't help but look at him a few more times. When she smiled, two cute dimples appeared at the corners of her mouth.

Jin Ziming smiled back. With his fifth-level soul, he could tell without any detection equipment that only two of the ten people had spiritual roots.

A boy has four attributes, and a girl who smiles sweetly at him has much better qualifications.

Mang Han can feel her affinity to the external spiritual energy, which is mainly water and supplemented by gold.

Her water attribute is extremely pure, like a pearl that has never been polished but already contains radiance. Although its metallic properties are not as pure as water, its quality is still high.

Seeing his slightly absent-minded look, Ye Ranyi asked curiously: "Zi Ming, what's the matter?"

"Ranyi, use the path of karma to look at the girl in blue. Why do I think she is destined to me?"

Ye Xianzi looked at it carefully, counted it with her fingers, and said in surprise: "Hey, I really have a causal entanglement with you."

"What do you think?"

"There are no signs of bad consequences. That girl has not yet practiced cultivation. It is just a matter of effort to cut off the connection between you two."

"That's not necessary, just let nature take its course." Jin Ziming said after thinking for a moment.

The soul boy team left, and the two of them put aside the topic and continued to swim. After four leisurely days, the sensational talent show finally began.

Coinciding with the grand event that happens once every ten years, the main island was packed with people, and people flocked to the giant venue on the east side.

Ticket prices have been very high. The first-class seats with the best seats are said to cost one hundred taels of gold. The prices for second-class to sixth-class seats decrease gradually, and the last two seats are especially popular.

Jin Ziming spent a lot of money to buy two second-class seats and sat comfortably in the front seat.

The royal family members and the group of casual monks sat in a special area at the front, and behind them were the expensive first-class seats.

The king of Manni Kingdom is a burly man with beards. Next to him, sitting is the late Nascent Soul with immortal style.

When the time came, the King stood up and went on stage, announcing the start of the draft with great energy.

One hundred soul boys participating in the competition were introduced into the field, and the crowd became excited and cheered one after another.

Jin Ziming looked carefully and discovered that those enthusiastic spectators were cheering for the islands or children they loved or were betting on.

He glanced at the group of children, and there were indeed some with spiritual roots. Amidst the noise, they were either proud, nervous, or indifferent.

He was in a trance, as if he had gone back to the distant past, when Zeng Ze and himself went to Long Qing Sect to participate in the examination of outer disciples.

He secretly visited the friend he had implicated twice and found out that he had lived a long and wealthy life and had passed away decades ago.

After a long time, he came back to his senses and locked his eyes on the girl.

She put on a brand-new green robe that represented Xuanji Island, and a trace of nervousness in her heart was cleverly covered up with calmness and tranquility.

As if she sensed the rough man's gaze, she looked here, but the distance was too far and she couldn't see clearly.

This story stems from an incomplete dream of my daughter, which I helped her fulfill.
