Chapter 70 The Spirit Field of the Cave House
"It's impossible to work... Actually, farming is also good!"
Zhou Yi had a plan in mind, so he planted a few years of land first, and became familiar with the market before planning other things.
If you are new to you, you have no background and no relationship. There is no need to make a head for temporary convenience. If you commit any taboos or unspoken rules, you will cause resentment and trouble for nothing.
"The world of cultivation is extremely dangerous and far less safe than ordinary people. Everything must be as good as walking on thin ice, be careful!"
"I'll get the cave first, and I can get a free spiritual rain technique when farming."
Zhou Yi has been practicing for decades and has only learned to condense simple magic power. He has long envied the magic of immortals.
...
The buildings in Xiaodanshan Square are exactly the same, but there is a six-story building in the center, with a plaque of the Danding Sect hanging at the door, and monks entering and leaving are careful.
This is the official office of Xiaodanshan!
First floor.
Zhou Yi came to one of the counters and said respectfully with a smile.
"Fellow Taoist, do you register your name here for a casual cultivator?"
“New?”
The young Taoist was wearing a sky-blue robe and a golden cauldron mark on his chest. He didn't raise his eyelids when he heard this, and took out a jade slip: "Write down your name, age, origin, and skills."
Zhou Yi put the jade slip on his forehead, and his magic power was circulated, remembering the contents he had prepared long ago.
——Zhu Gang, fifty-two years old, a casual cultivator in Xuzhou, has no skills.
The Danding Sect does not strictly manage casual cultivators, and registering names is not to check the details, but to facilitate subsequent management.
The Taoist checked the information of the jade slip and found nothing special. He took out a bronze token of palm-sized slap, engraved the word "Zhu Gang" on the surface, and then handed the token over.
"Be careful not to lose it, and get a spirit stone."
Zhou Yi took it with both hands and smiled and said, "I know, you are suffering."
The bronze token is equivalent to the Zhouyi certificate in the market. It contains a special inscription of the Danding Sect, which is difficult for ordinary people to imitate. In theory, if it is lost or broken, it can be reissue for free, but it is just a trouble for the Taoist to do things, and it requires a spirit stone for hard work.
The Taoist was quite satisfied with Zhou Yi's respect and asked casually: "Do you want to farm or mine?"
Zhou Yi said: "Farm."
The Taoist casually reminded: "Well, go to the second floor to find Senior Brother Liu. He is kind-hearted and can ask more questions."
"Thank you!"
Zhou Yi bowed to thank him. Perhaps what the Taoist said was just a trivial matter, but it was a very useful guide for the new casual cultivators in the market.
As for face and other things, in Zhou Yi's opinion, it has always been an accessory of strength and ability.
There will be some things when it should be, so there is no need to force it or care!
Second floor.
It was quite lively, so I asked thirty or forty monks to whisper in a low voice.
There is no rule prohibiting noise in Xiaodan Mountain, but whether outside the streets, shops, or offices, monks speak or pass on their voices or lower their voices.
Zhou Yi asked about where Senior Brother Liu was, went straight to the counter and handed over the identity sign.
"Senior Brother Liu, I am a new casual cultivator, come to collect the cave and spiritual fields."
Senior Brother Liu looks seventy and eighty years old, and he is already old among the monks, with a kind smile: "Have you practiced the spiritual rain technique before or planted spiritual medicine?"
Zhou Yi shook his head and said, "No."
"Then you can only plant spiritual rice."
Senior Brother Liu took out a map and pointed to the green area above: "Choose one at will, and you need to pay six buckets of rent per acre of spiritual fields."
The areas where spiritual rice are planted are basically around Xiaodan Mountain, and the spiritual fields near the Central Qiyun Peak are used to plant spiritual medicines.
Zhou Yi asked respectfully: "I dare to ask seniors, how much impact does spiritual rain technique and planting experience have on spiritual rice yield?"
"It can be at most 50% or 60%."
Senior Brother Liu said proudly: "I used to plant spiritual rice and practice spiritual rain techniques for more than ten years. One acre of land could collect two or three dou more than one mu."
Ling rice is different from ordinary rice and wheat. One plant is planted a distance from a distance. The average harvest of one acre of spiritual fields is about one stone. Senior Brother Liu is already very good at harvesting two or three buckets.
Zhou Yi carefully checked the Lingmi area and chose the place to the east.
The endless sea is facing the east side of Xiaodan Mountain. If something really happened, you can save your life by escaping to the bottom of the sea.
"Let's rent three acres first."
"Can."
Senior Brother Liu entered the Lingtian information into the identity token and asked again: "Which is the cave?"
"Understanding!"
Zhou Yi answered without hesitation that the lower-level cave is worth three thousand spirit stones, and the location is almost in the Lingmi area.
The residence is close to Lingtian, so you can save traveling even if you go to the land. It is definitely not because you can’t afford a high-quality cave!
"It just so happens that Cave No. 306 is empty, and you need to pay back thirty spirit stones every year."
Senior Brother Liu entered the cave information, handed the identity token, spell jade slip, and a pack of spiritual rice seeds to Zhou Yi, and told him: "Remember not to be lazy. Many people have rented or borrowed overdue loans, so they can only go to mining to pay off their debts."
"Thank you, senior brother."
Zhou Yi checked the token and jade slip and said with a shameless face: "Senior brother, I am the first time I practiced the spiritual rain technique. I beg for some advice. I will receive the spiritual rice in the next year and pay more filial piety to you."
"Interesting and interesting! I haven't seen such a thick-skinned person in some years."
Senior Brother Liu took out another jade slip and said with a smile: "This is some of my experience in practicing cultivation. You don't need to be more filial to you. When you have enough money, please invite me to Fengminglou for a drink."
"Sure! Sure!"
Zhou Yi suppressed his joy and bowed to thank him.
Leave the office.
Following the map in the identity token, bypassing the central area, and flying for more than an hour, finally found Cave No. 306.
A single family, a small courtyard with a three or four meter radius.
The east and west wing rooms are divided into three main rooms, with a layout similar to the Shenjing courtyard. The difference is that other caves are dozens of feet apart, and they pay more attention to the privacy of their practice.
Zhou Yi went around and took a look. The residents on the left and right sides were empty and uninhabited.
"Xiaodanshanfang City is about 100 miles east and west, and there are only a few people in the trading area, and other areas are sparsely populated. This is the best for me, and it saves people from discovering strange things."
"First adjust the cave and go to the fields to take a look tomorrow."
Zhou Yi used the dust-clearing talisman to clean up several rooms.
The custom of the master bedroom is not used to practice. It has arranged several mechanisms and does not ask for any damage to the practitioners. It is enough to use it as a warning.
At night.
Zhou Yi sat cross-legged in the west wing and began his first practice in the market.
The Guiyuan Jue is used to operate, which is far three or four times the spiritual energy that is far beyond the outside world, swarms in, and refines it in the meridians, becoming a magic power stored in the Dantian.
The unprecedented practice efficiency made Zhou Yi's mood, which had long been unwavering, slight rippling.
"At this speed, it is faster to break through the fourth level of Qi refining than the third level!"
"This is just the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. With the combination of spiritual rice and elixirs, wouldn't it take off... No, I still have to pay the rent and pay off the debt!"
When Zhou Yi thought about this, his good mood suddenly became silent.
The next day.
Zhou Yi went to check the Lingtian, which was a rectangle that was ten feet wide and ten feet long, which was quite regular.
When eliminating weeds and renovating the land, Zhou Yi did not rush to plant spiritual rice, but instead approached the monks next to him.
If you flatter a few words and say a few good things, you will get a lot of tips for planting spiritual rice.
It is not a unique secret, but a big deal that everyone knows. Even if no one tells you, you can find it out after a few years of planting it.
One month later.
Zhou Yi has cultivated the Spirit Rain Technique, and after use it, he can land the Spirit Rain within a radius of three meters.
This is the most basic magic trick. It turns magic power into spiritual rain to nourish the spiritual field and can increase the yield of spiritual rice.
"Start farming!"
Zhou Yi carried a hoe and planted a grain of spiritual rice every three feet away.
This is one of the tricks. The germination rate of spiritual rice is about 30% and the seedling rate is 50%. In the calculation, three seeds are alive.
Of course, there will inevitably be sparse after the seedlings are formed, which means that monks need to move seedlings between seedlings.
A year has passed in a blink of an eye.
The three acres of spiritual fields harvested two stones and four dou of stones, paid a rent of eight stones, leaving six dou of spiritual rice.
Zhou Yi sold the spiritual rice directly to the Danding Sect, earned thirty spirit stones, and then the cave account period came.
Chapter completed!
