Mortal Immortal Gourd

After drinking and eating, Mu Feng and Wang Ying walked around the Dingjiazhuang with Ergouzi.

"Zhang Xiucai, what do you think of Dingjiazhuang?"

Mu Feng pointed to a large golden rice field in front of him and asked Er Gouzi.

"It's nice, it's rich, it's much nicer than any village I've ever seen."

"It's just that I don't understand one thing. Don't there any tenants in Dingjiazhuang?"

This is what 놛 has been puzzling about since he entered the village.

The tenants are generally shabby and skinny, and they can be distinguished at a glance.

놛Since entering the village, I haven’t seen anyone who looks like a tenant.

"Hahaha... In this entire village, except Master Ding's family, all the other people are tenants."

Mu Feng and Wang Ying laughed at the same time and grabbed a man.

"Zhao Laosi, do you think you are a tenant?"

This man was tall and strong, carrying a hoe, and had his trouser legs rolled up. He had obviously just come back from the fields.

"Of course I am a tenant of the Ding family. As long as Mr. Ding doesn't dislike me, I am willing to be a tenant of the Ding family for the rest of my life."

"Why?"

Ergouzi can't understand, what kind of psychology is this?

The tenants had no land and had to hand over half of their harvest at least every year. They had to eat chaff to survive.

놛I used to dream of having a piece of land of my own. If I had no choice, no dog would want to be a tenant.

The man in front of me was working as a tenant of the Ding family, and he actually looked very proud and planned to be a tenant for the rest of his life.

"Being a tenant in Dingjiazhuang is naturally very different from other places."

“In order to cultivate your own land, you need to pay at least 30% of the tax to the government.

But we tenants of the Ding family only need to pay 20% of the land rent, which is enough, and the rest is ours.

Where can I find such a good thing after leaving the Ding family! "

When Er Gouzi heard this, he thought for a moment and soon understood.

The head of the Ding family is a martial artist. He does not have to pay taxes to the government. He only collects 20% of the land rent. If he makes a little money, he will never lose money.

"Master Ding is benevolent and righteous. When everyone encounters difficulties, Master Ding will always help. He never charges interest for lending money or food..."

As soon as Mr. Zhao talked about the benefits of Mr. Ding, he kept talking and seemed to have endless things to say.

Finally, when Zhao Laosi left with his hoe still unfinished, the three of them continued to play around the village.

The tenants I saw were all similar to Zhao Laosi, and each one exuded a different spirit.

"Master Ding Renyi, we live in Dingjiazhuang for a long time, and we receive spiritual rice every year."

At this time, Mu Feng said proudly, while looking at Er Gouzi with his eyes, but unfortunately he could not find a look of surprise and envy on Er Gouzi's face.

"Brother Zhang doesn't know yet, but the rice we just ate was mixed with a lot of rice."

"Spiritual rice is born by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It matures once every ten years and has extremely high yield.

Ordinary consumption can strengthen the body. We warriors can improve our cultivation by eating it. We can sense the aura of heaven and earth and become immortal cultivators. "

Mu Feng and Wang Ying sang together and explained to Er Gouzi the magic and rarity of spiritual rice, so as to shock the country bumpkin in front of him.

We receive 꾉꿤 spiritual rice every year, which we treat as a treasure.

After cooking the rice, the pot was shiny and even the rice spoon had to be licked several times.

Finally, I have to put rice, spoons, bowls, chopsticks, and 녍 into the pot to boil a large pot of soup, not wanting to waste any of it.

However, after hearing what they said, Er Gouzi's expression didn't change at all.

The two of them were very disappointed, and even felt a little frustrated.

Could this be an elm head?

"Have you two sensed the aura of heaven and earth now?"

Ergouzi asked curiously, as long as he senses the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, he will enter the first level of Qi training, become an immortal cultivator, and escape from the mortal world.

놛I remember that when I was 14 years old, I successfully sensed the aura of heaven and earth and became an immortal cultivator.

"not yet."

Both of them felt more frustrated and felt that the most vulnerable part of their hearts had been poked.

"The two of us have only joined Dingjiazhuang for a short period of time. There are also several older martial arts scholars who have sensed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for a long time. The strongest one has probably reached the second level of Qi training."

It seems that this Dingjiazhuang usually doesn't show off, and its overall strength is no worse than that of the Sima family.

"What does this Lingmi's seedling look like? Can you show me?"

After pondering for a moment, Ergouzi finally asked again, which made the two hearts more balanced.

"Of course no problem."

"But the spiritual field is guarded by a dedicated guard, so don't get too close."

The two men immediately led Er Gouzi towards the large rice field.

"Look at this cat's tooth rice. It's actually a new variety cultivated by the ancestors of the Ding family by planting spiritual rice and ordinary rice together."

Ergouzi picked an ear of rice and peeled off the husk. The rice inside was white and flawless, small and pointed, and indeed looked a bit like cat teeth.

Put the rice grains into your mouth and chew them carefully. There is a refreshing fragrance, which contains a touch of spiritual energy.

There is not much spiritual energy, slightly better than nothing, but if consumed for a long time, it should 껩땣 strengthen the body.

Er Gouzi and Da Er were behind him, and he put the remaining ears of rice into his arms and quickly caught up with them.

The entire Dingjiazhuang is surrounded by 껚, and a large plain in between is planted with cat's tooth rice.

There is a green canal between the rice fields, flowing from the top of a building.

Third, climb all the way along the canal to the top.

After standing on the top of 놇껚, I discovered that there was a lake with a radius of several miles on the top of 껚, and a lush island in the center of the lake.

This lake is not natural, but a large amount of soil was used to fill the gap between several large mountains, forming a large reservoir surrounded by mountains.

A canal draws water from the reservoir on the top of the mountain to irrigate a large plain in the area.

Farming depends on the weather, and there are few years with good weather and good harvests.

For example, this year there was a little drought and rain. The 50 mu of land rented by Ah Hu's family used to yield 200 yuan in previous years, but this year it only yielded more than 170 yuan.

This is still a good farm near the water source, and the harvest in other places is even worse.

Dingjiazhuang has such a large reservoir. Even if there is a drought for two or three years, or even three years, it is enough to guarantee the irrigation water for the plain in the area.

"To build such a large reservoir, at least hundreds of thousands of people will be needed, right?"

Er Gouzi couldn't help but marvel at the huge scale of the project.

You have to know that the total population of Anchang County is only over 100,000.

It is equivalent to mobilizing the population of several counties to build such a large reservoir.

In addition to the manpower, these hundreds of thousands of people have to be used for food and drink.

It is almost an impossible project.

"Hundreds of thousands are not needed. The first ancestor of the Ding family is a foundation-building ancestor. The old man personally used earth-based magic and was equivalent to 100,000 civilians."

"However, the construction of this reservoir was finally completed after several days of efforts by Dingjiazhuang and the mobilization of tens of thousands of civilians."

When Mu Feng said this, he proudly put his hands behind his back and looked up at the sky, as if he had changed his surname to Ding at this moment.

Er Gouzi was attracted by the words "foundation building ancestor". As far as he knew, the current county magistrate had not reached the foundation building level.

"Is the ancestor of the Ding family a foundation building ancestor?"

"Yes, this is recorded in the Ding family tree, but it's a pity! There have been no foundation building masters since then, and the current head of the family has a great chance of impacting the foundation building realm."

At this time, Er Gouzi looked at the artificial lake in front of him again and felt that it was not so strange.

A foundation building master cast a spell himself, and with a few contributions, it seemed natural to build an artificial lake.

"The Ding family built the lake with the whole family's strength to benefit the local area. I really admire it."

window._taboola = window._taboola || ; _taboola.push({ mode: 'thumbs-feed-01', container: 'taboola-below-article-thumbnail---300x250', placement: 'Below article thumbnail - 300x250', target_type: 'mix' });

Er Gouzi's words came from the heart, and his impression of Dingjiazhuang was greatly improved.

While Wang Ying was talking, he squatted by the lake, scooped up a handful of water to drink, and wiped his face.

"The water in this lake is clear and sweet. Brother Zhang, do you want to try it?"

"The whole Dingjiazhuang drinks the water here. The water contains a little spiritual energy. Drinking it for a long time can strengthen the body."

Er Gouzi was interested and also drank a handful of water. Sure enough, it also contained a very light spiritual energy.

The three of them got on a small boat by the lake and went to the island in the lake.

The moment they stepped on the island in the middle of the lake, Er Gouzi felt a shock. The spiritual energy on this island was much richer than other places.

Mu Wang Er also took a deep breath of spiritual energy and seemed to enjoy it very much.

"Mu Feng Wang Ying, the important place of the family, why did you bring a child here?"

As soon as the three of them got on the island, a man turned out from behind a big rock and looked at Er Gouzi with a gloomy face.

Er Gouzi actually felt a hint of danger from the cold eyes of the man, as if he was facing a beast that could bite at any time.

"Ding Yi, this is Mr. Zhang's distinguished guest. We are ordered by the master to accompany the distinguished guest to look around."

"So you are the distinguished guest of the master. Respectfully! Please!"

Ding Yi cupped his hands and stood aside with a gloomy face to make way for the foot.

Wood King Er led Er Gouzi around a small stone forest, but saw a large patch of thorns blocking the road in front of them.

This kind of thorn is about one foot tall, growing luxuriantly, and densely forming a thorn wall.

In addition, this kind of thorn is densely covered with many inch-long thorns, and there are barbs on the thorns.

It looks so ferocious. If anyone accidentally enters it, it will be absolutely difficult to get out.

"This iron thorn looks thin, but it is actually hard and flexible, and it is difficult to be damaged by ordinary swords.

It was found by the ancestor of the Ding family from the ancient immortal ruins. After cultivating it for a long time, it has grown into a thorn wall."

Er Gouzi's heart moved. If there were such thorns around his snake mouth, he would be more assured when he went out in the future.

However, he could only ask the Ding family for this thorn seed with good words, or spend money to buy it.

If it was really impossible, he could only think of a way to steal it.

With the idea of ​​thief in his mind, he began to measure the surrounding terrain and figure out how to act.

In the thorn bush, there were some teacup-sized flowers sparsely blooming, and the petals were layered, which was quite beautiful.

Looking beyond the thorn wall, there was a large rice field behind.

These rice seedlings are taller than the trees, and the stalks are thick, but the rice ears only have a few grains, and the yield is not high.

However, the grains are larger than ordinary rice.

"This is the rice field in Linggu. We can probably harvest a batch today."

“In the entire Anchang County, Dingjiazhuang’s Crescent Rice has the largest yield and the best quality.”

Sanji walked around the spiritual field through the thorn wall. It was at least five acres wide.

"There is still a lot of room on the island, why are they all planted with spiritual valleys?"

Ergouzi saw that there was still a lot of vacant land on the island that was deserted, with only some crooked trees growing there, which felt like a waste of land.

"As you know, during the growth process of the spiritual valley, it needs to continue to absorb spiritual energy.

There is a miniature water spirit vein here, and then the lake is used to gather the surrounding water spirit energy, which is enough to cultivate these acres of spiritual fields.

If you plant too many spiritual objects, they will compete with each other for spiritual energy, and eventually there will be a lack of spiritual energy, and everyone will grow well. "

"With these five acres of spiritual land, it is enough to ensure the prosperity of a family."

When Mu Wangerji said this, he looked at Lingtian with eyes full of envy.

"There are only a few spiritual fields in the entire Anchang County, and they are all in the hands of a few big families. No one else can get involved."

"We ordinary warriors, if the opportunity is good, can only eat spiritual rice once in our lives."

"Ah, the two of us just took refuge in Dingjiazhuang and were able to eat spiritual rice. How can we get such a great blessing!"

When the two of them said this, they started to sing along, their eyes constantly measuring Er Gouzi's expressions.

However, the result once again disappointed them.

Is this really a stupid head?

If it were other people who heard about such a good thing, they would definitely feel envious, and then shyly ask them to show the way.

The two of them could reluctantly exchange a few words and introduce Ergouzi to join Dingjiazhuang.

Then Ergouzi will be grateful to them.

The Ergouzi in front of him only nodded perfunctorily to express his agreement, and then nothing more happened.

But the things of eating the emperor's salary, being loyal to the emperor, and the things assigned by the family still have to be done.

"Zhang Xiucai, are you interested in investing in Dingjiazhuang like us?"

"Let me tell you, there are many benefits to becoming a customer of Dingjiazhuang. In addition to the spiritual rice, each 뎃 also has 100 taels of silver, an old ginseng plant over 10 뎃, 10 꾩 of cotton, 1 꾩 of silk, and 50 꿭 of pork. , 10 shi of ordinary rice and 5 dan of firewood.”

It is really exciting to hear that there are so many benefits to joining Dingjiazhuang.

If Ergouzi didn't get the yellow-skinned gourd, he would definitely have no hesitation.

But now, he has a yellow-skinned gourd in his hand. He has planted several acres of ginseng in Shekou. The gourd can also enhance the aura of ordinary food.

There is absolutely no need for him to seek refuge with others for five liters of spiritual rice.

When Mu and Wang saw Er Gouzi, they only hesitated for a moment, but were still moved and continued to add more money.

"One more thing, all of us who are studying martial arts dream that one day we can sense the aura of heaven and earth, draw the aura into our body, and become an immortal cultivator."

"But the secular cultivation techniques for immortality have long been confiscated and destroyed. The techniques in the hands of the government are so easy to get, and they must at least achieve great achievements."

"Even if ordinary people successfully sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, there are no corresponding immortal skills to practice, and there are all kinds of magical immortal spells, and there is nowhere to learn."

This time, the two 그 really poked Er Gouzi's sore spot.

He searched all over the Zhengwu Hall's library, but couldn't find a single technique for cultivating immortality.

Li Banxian, the only one who can teach him immortal skills, has also left, and Monkey King and Ma Yue will definitely come back.

Seeing that Er Gouzi was finally moved, Er Gouzi continued.

"The ancestors of the Ding family have had foundation building skills, so there will naturally be a shortage of skills and spells. If you join the Ding family village, you will have the opportunity to obtain the immortality cultivation skills in the future."

"You also know that the imperial law stipulates that the cultivation techniques of immortality can be passed down privately. Mr. Ding has gained fame and passed on some to his disciples, and there is no one who will hold him accountable."

Ergouzi is indeed very excited. He lacks ginseng and money, but he lacks skills and guidance from experts.

"Then you two have mastered the techniques?"

King Mu Er 그꺗놆 was silent for a while, then 그 opened which pot and picked up which pot, specifically poking at 그's heart.

Mu Feng could only laugh dryly: "We have only been here for a short time, our cultivation is not enough, and we have not made any contribution to Dingjiazhuang, so we are too embarrassed to ask for it."

"Well, as long as you successfully sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, you can still ask Master Ding for it."

After Ergouzi heard this, he fell into deep thought and weighed it repeatedly in his mind.

Ever since he took the Wu Xiucai exam, there have been very few people and forces wooing him.

But in comparison, Dingjiazhuang is the most sincere.

The county captain called Er Gouzi over. He was sitting while Er Gouzi stood. He was eating and drinking while Er Gouzi looked at the large table of delicious food, which only Er Gouzi could smell.

Master Dianshi called Ergouzi over. He didn't even smell the delicious food and threatened him severely.

As for Daoxuanzong's wooing, that one-brained deal can only operate in the shadows from now on.

Why does he, an upright seven-foot man, have to be sneaky all day long?

Only Dingjiazhuang, who was friendly and kind without any pretensions, even had a meal with him.

Moreover, the entire Dingjiazhuang gave him a good feeling.

There is also a chance to obtain immortal skills.

It's really exciting!
