Master, stay away from me

How long does it take for a seed in the ground to become a pearl in our bowl?

Holding a bowl of plain rice, Leng Xian was taken aback by this question, and replied, "Plant in spring and harvest in autumn, we can do it in two seasons."

"...Well, yes and no." The person who asked turned to one side and asked again, "Little girl, do you know?"

The man in red who was being questioned had just picked up a bunch of edamame, and when he saw the question on himself, he replied, "This rice is newly harvested. It should be the late rice harvested last year. The yellow rice seedlings used can be harvested from planting to harvesting." As short as more than sixty days. Even if it is longer, it is mostly within a hundred days."

"Yes, yes, yes." The questioner's big hands were dark and cracked, and the turban on his head was all gray.He patted Leng Xian on the shoulder, "You scholars are not as good as a little girl, I don't know where the books have gone, it's like a show..." Although the words were disgusting, this man still moved towards Leng Xian He took a seat, pointed at the table with his finger, "Let me tell you, since the first emperor selected seeds to repair the fields, the rice that was planted in spring and harvested in autumn was regarded as early rice, and the next crop was planted later, and it was mostly planted in autumn and harvested in winter. There are double cropping crops, continuous cropping crops, and intercropping crops, which vary from place to place. This is the land of Hunan and Chu, and the continuous cropping method is more used...then the harvest can be raised, and it can feed the world!" The man tapped the table twice with two fingers, "Let me tell you, if it weren't for the hard work of us farmers, how could you have such delicate skin and tender meat?...Hey, why are you looking at me? These are all common sense. If you want an examiner, how can you not?" Do you know? Remember it well..."

Leng Xian could only be educated humbly, and was patted on the shoulder by the powerful man several times.When he was finally called back by his mother-in-law, Leng Xian had gained a lot of farming knowledge, while the man in red beside him happily ate a plate of edamame.

Picking up the cold rice, Immortal Leng secretly let out a sigh of relief.

"Boss! Another plate of edamame!"

"okay!"

Seeing another plate of edamame on the table, Leng Xian could only shake his head.

"I can't see that you are familiar with human agriculture."

"Huh?" Ji Wunian was holding one in his mouth, and in order to speak, he squeezed out one of them and ate it, chewing and saying, "I'm walking in the world, unlike the immortals who are meditating in the gate , naturally know more."

"...Indeed," Leng Xian smiled, looking outside the small booth, "It's rare to see such a drastic change in the world."

"Without the power of immortal Buddha, you have to find your own way, that's all." Ji Wunian smiled and continued to eat her edamame.

Leng Xian didn't say much, and slowly savored the food on the table.Besides edamame, Ling Zhou also ordered three dishes and one soup.Immortal Leng, who had just been educated by the farmers, didn't want to waste, so he ate solidly.The two had a good meal, except for some people who made them look at each other when they passed by, there was no disturbance.

It wasn't until the edamame was finished and the plate bottomed out that the two of them tidied it up and asked the boss to pay the bill.Leng Xian is a fairy elder with no money, he can only watch his female companion pay the money, and because of this, he received a few glances from the boss.Ji Wunian asked the boss to save the mess, and asked in local dialect, "Uncle, have there been a lot of Taoist priests here recently?"

"Yeah," the storekeeper pointed out with some accents, "It seems that we are going to Bahrain... I told them not to go..." He pointed to his head, "The brain is sick..."

Ji Wunian suppressed a smile and didn't ask any more questions.

They came out of the store and walked on the streets of the town, mingling with the crowd.Ji Wunian and the two pretended to be students entering Beijing for the spring test, and they were not outstanding at all among the mortals.But they have a certain goal, that is, the person who just passed by with a compass.

"What are they looking for?" Leng Xian asked while walking.

"Treasures." Ji Wunian walked back while walking, "At this time, the hidden demonic energy that makes Xianmen a headache can be released from those treasures, tempting people's hearts and causing people to go berserk..."

"Treasures?" Leng Xian felt strange, "In such a place, if there are real treasures, no one has found them for so many years?"

"..." Ji Wunian thought for a while, then replied, "It's not that easy to find, otherwise I wouldn't be able to use the compass."

"...Then what is the compass?" Leng Xian continued to ask.

"The hidden magic energy is not limited to the immortal gate, in fact, it is difficult for the demon cultivator himself to detect it." Having said that, Ji Wunian didn't hide him too much, "Qi Mo has a compass that can measure its existence. Now these little What I have in my hands are all imitations of that..." She turned her head and smiled, "It was secretly imitated by Xunyu, and it must have been discovered by Qi Mo recently, so I made more and distributed it."

"Xunyu? Demon general?" The appearance of these names made Leng Xian suddenly realize that the person in front of him was indeed a demon cultivator. "How did you know?"

"..." Ji Wunian hid his answer amidst the noisy voices.Regardless of Leng Xian's reaction, she continued, "The last time Moxiu appeared in the Northland was when Xunyu secretly searched for the hidden origin with Qi Mo on his back. If the matter was revealed, he would definitely be reprimanded by Qi Mohao. I was sent out for the first time, and it is estimated that there is also the meaning of redemption..."

"...Last time?" Leng Xian's memory of that time was a little fuzzy, but his intuition also made him ask, "Is this why you appeared in the Northland?"

Ji Wunian shrugged and didn't answer further.When they reached the entrance of the small town, Leng Xian stopped suddenly and stood in front of a notice board.The notice was not long, it probably said that there was a collapse in Bahrain and the road was temporarily closed.Ji Wunian also glanced at it, and said, "Sanqing disciples must have been here."

Leng Xian thought about it, and returned to the previous sentence, "The government is willing to listen to the words of Sanqing."

"...Heh," Ji Wunian smiled, "Everyone in the world is willing to listen to the words of the immortal sect. It's just that some people are arrogant and insist on 'not stepping on the mundane world, not falling into the mundane world'."

"What you said doesn't look like a chaotic demon cultivator." Leng Xian always felt that this person was strange, "With your mind, if you enter the fairy gate, you will definitely be able to do something, not what you are now..."

He stopped talking, and Ji Wunian helped him continue, "Notorious and despised?"

She said with a smile, but Leng Xian didn't know how to reply.But the man in red didn't care, turned half a circle in front of him, walked backwards, and smiled on his face, "My reputation is also spread in the fairy gate and devil world, but for everyone in this world, those are just after-dinners. Talking material is not as good as a bowl of rice and a plate of edamame."

Leng Xian looked at her, and still said, "You really don't look like a demon cultivator."

Ji Wunian just smiled and asked, "What's the difference?"

They passed through this small town and entered the mountain forest, step by step they had to go deeper.There were traces of Yujian's flying breath in the air, and both of them paid attention to the concealed breath, not wanting to be discovered by either side.

At first, Leng Xian could still feel a little devilish energy left behind by those people just now, but after entering the mountain forest, he felt that the surrounding devilish energy disappeared without a trace, so clean that he even began to doubt whether there was really a demonic cultivator here.

"There is a difference here." Leng Xian reminded.

"Yeah." Ji Wunian knew, and sighed, "It's only interesting if there are differences."

Bahrain is already an interesting place, some "visions", but it makes it more mysterious and charming. "Ba" in the local dialect is the legendary pillar supporting the sky. The so-called "Bahrain" means that the pillar mountain forms a forest and breaks through the sky.Looking from a distance, it is a series of knives cutting cliffs, and axes cutting mountains.Leng Xian has been here before when traveling down the mountain. Although the world has changed a lot, the beautiful scenery here has lived up to time.

The peaks and forests are magnificent, and the waterfalls are far away.

It's a pity that those are all high places scenery, what they are walking now are the valleys between the mountain peaks, the light is blocked by mountain fog and woods, even this day is a bit gloomy.The ravines in Bahrain are criss-crossed, and the bottom of the mountain is even more ups and downs like a maze.Leng Xian followed Ling Zhou, turning left and right, slowly going deep, walking very carefully.

Turning another corner, Leng Xian faced the seemingly undisturbed scenery, and said again, "There may be a maze here, perhaps covering the whole of Bahrain."

"Yes." Ji Wunian looked around and found a waterfall high in the sky.She brought Leng Xian to the vicinity and arranged for him, "Leng Xianchang, you wait here, if you see Xunyu, go forward and intercept him, and take him away directly." She pointed to the direction when she came, " Be sure not to rush through the clouds and fog, just follow the way we just came."

"Okay. I'll remember this." Leng Xian looked at her deeply, unable to tell how much trust he had in the person in front of him, and then asked, "But how do you know that he will pass by from now on? If I can't take him away What about him?"

"I have my own plan to drive him out. If you can't take him away, then hide it yourself and find another chance." Ji Wunian smiled back, glanced in the direction of a certain ravine, and continued his rhetoric. "Xunyu is a very scheming person. When you took him away, don't say that you came to save him, but that you came to find me. The reason is to find Suqin Saber. You should be stricter with him, demonic energy You can force a confession. You must convince him that you think that Lingzhou has a relationship with the demon world, and you still have old feelings for Cangxue, and you want to find the treasure for the master, and you don't care about the rest."

This was a wish in Leng Xian's heart, and he didn't even need to pretend.

"Based on his personality, if he is in a weak position, he will definitely try to win you over." Ji Wunian smiled again, "What will happen next, don't I need to say more about Immortal Leng?"

Leng Xian nodded, "Follow the plan, I know."

This fairy elder has been sick and weak all year round. Although he has the cultivation base of Yuanying and does not rely on force, he has been pondering for many years, and Leng Xian also has his resourcefulness.Ji Wunian didn't doubt it, looked at him at this time, and smiled slightly, "I'm afraid that Immortal Leng will be as famous as me before this step, really think about it?"

"What reputation is not famous?" Leng Xian laughed along with her, with a devilish look in her eyes, "I am already a Nascent Soul Demon Cultivator, and I just follow my heart and mind... Besides, I can't even compare to a plate of edamame , What else is there to think about?"

Ji Wunian knew that Leng Xian also had his style, so he smiled and said, "The edamame here is really delicious."

"I think fish with chopped pepper is more delicious." Leng Xian smiled back.

Watching Ling Zhou leave, Leng Xian recalled the delicious food he had just eaten.The spiciness in Hunan and Chu is always a little salty, and the slight pain on the tip of the tongue stimulates a stronger taste.He has been recuperating from a long illness and has always been restrained. In addition, he is one of the elders of Zangxue, so he must lead by example and stick to pure cultivation.But after a bloody encounter, the devilish energy penetrated his bones, and he seemed to have learned something from it.

Immortals and demons are meaningless, but they want to be innocent.

...and the pepper fish is really delicious.

"Liu Yunji is from Hunan and Chu."

Leng Xian was startled, and turned around to see that it was Moon White that appeared out of nowhere.The beauty fairy arched her hands in salute, and called out, "Miss Yuebai."

"Yeah." Yuebai responded, and went to somewhere in the valley, "She went in?"

"Yes." The indifference of the person in front of him was even worse than when he saw her before, and Leng Xian could faintly feel Yuebai's impatience.This one is obviously close to Ling Zhou, but compared to Ling Zhou who is easy to get along with, this one is more distant.Leng Xian thought for a while, and planned to tell her about the situation, "Ling Zhou told me to wait here..."

"I know."

This interruption was a bit rude, and Leng Xian felt a little strange.He looked at the place where Ling Zhou disappeared, "Miss Yuebai is worried that she is in danger?"

"...?" How could there be no danger in a place where demon cultivators search and fight with immortal gates?

Yuebai looks at Leng Xian like a fool, but this fool is just on Ji Wunian's boat.Yuebai also knew that Ji Wunian said "Yuebai will come to pick me up", but only she knew whether she believed it or not.The reality is that Ji Wunian left Leng Xian on the periphery of the barrier, maybe because she didn't want him to take risks with her, or maybe because she thought it was better for her to act alone...

No matter what, the words "don't go in by yourself" were left behind by Ji Wunian.

Kind of annoying.

Leng Xian guessed that she was worried and wanted to comfort her, "Ling Zhou is smart and..."

Yuebai was upset and asked, "If she was hunted down by Zangxue that day, would you have saved her?"

Leng Xian froze for a moment, the answer was obvious.

Yuebai didn't want to say any more, took a step into the void, and chased into the barrier.
