Daily life in the era of Reiki

The mother-in-law looked coldly at Miao Sheng jumping up and down to play with bugs, thinking that he was just a child at heart, after all fireflies, there is no child who doesn't like them.

Thinking that as an apprentice wizard, he would not be able to justify without any knowledge of Gu insects, so Miao Sheng added another homework, and her mother-in-law planned to teach him the most basic Gu insect refining. If he succeeded, he would have his own Gu insects.

Now is April, which is the best time to refine fireflies.

The only ones that can emit fluorescent light are male fireflies. For this reason, Miao Sheng needs to find some female insects to come back. After the mating is completed and eggs are laid, these adult insects will all have to go to the underworld to report, and I don’t know what they are like. what.

Obtaining the worm eggs is the beginning of the wizard refining Gu worms. First, collect the worm eggs together, use witch medicine to ripen them, and wait for the larvae to hatch, then use witch medicine to stimulate their viciousness, and put them together Biting and devouring each other, the final victor can be counted as a Gu worm.

The next step is for the wizard to use his own blood and incantations to make the Gu worms recognize their masters. After that, they will use blood and incantations to tame them every day. Only when they can completely control the Gu worms can they be truly refined.

Therefore, Miao Sheng's first task in refining Gu worms was to find a partner for the firefly bachelors in the bamboo forest.

The mother-in-law thought that the population of fireflies was nearby, and occasionally she was tricked by golden silkworms to play with a few males that could only glow. Therefore, when she told Miao Sheng to catch some females and came back, she didn't think much about safety. How could she know about the males? It was brought back by two unlucky children who ran into the mountains.

Fortunately, Miao Sheng was well prepared. When his mother-in-law explained the process of refining Gu worms, he knew that he had to go to the mountain. He made an appointment in advance with a goat and was going to let it carry him into the mountain.

Speaking of this goat, Miao Sheng admired it.

There is a big sheep raising family in their village, and there are hundreds of sheep grazing around the mountain forest. That day, the boy in the family said he was married, so he picked the fattest ram in the flock and planned to kill it.

Unexpectedly, the sheep was a strong temper, kicked several people over, and fled.

It was trapped in the abandoned house next to the forest by the villagers who heard the sound. It was almost desperate, but this scene happened to be seen by Lemon and Jinjin who ran out to play.

So Jin Jin attracted a bunch of worms and knocked down a tree next to the house. When the tree fell, it hit the side of the abandoned house. The goat took advantage of the villagers' evasion, stepped on the tree and fled into the forest, and finally escaped to heaven to save it. Little life.

Afterwards, it was taken back to the depths of the bamboo forest of Miao Sheng's house by the two lemons, and found that the grass was fertile and the water was beautiful, so it stayed there.

When Miao Sheng discovered that there was an extra goat in the bamboo forest, it was already a few days later. Before he had time to teach the two troublemakers a lesson, he had to ask which family it used to belong to and why it appeared here before considering whether to take it or not. Go back, so as not to be discovered by others, and you can't speak clearly.

This goat is a smarter one, otherwise it would have been killed obediently like the other goats. Its thinking is clear, and it clearly explained its experience of escaping. At the same time, it also hopes that Miao Sheng can take him in, as long as he doesn’t eat it , it can help to do things.

Miao Sheng happened to lack leg strength. He has small arms and legs, and he can walk on his own. It is really difficult to move things. The sheep appeared too timely, so he tacitly let the goat stay.

As for the villager who suffered losses, he also secretly made a note, and he will just find a way to pay back the money in the future.

In order to prevent the goat from being recognized, he also found a black dye and dyed a strand of hair on its forehead black. In addition, it has been frightened for days and has lost a lot of weight. Even if it is brought to the sheep, People can't recognize it.

After solving the means of transportation, Miao Sheng began to prepare to go into the mountains to catch female insects. Judging from the directions described by Lemon and Gold, he needs to walk about three kilometers in the virgin forest.

It sounds quite close, and it is not far from the village to the town, but you must know that there are no roads in the virgin forest, and there are countless poisonous snakes, insects, rats and ants. Dare to go deep into the forest.

He communicated with his mother-in-law in advance, and lied to Grandma Zhang that he would stay and work with her from morning to night when he was looking for female insects, so that Grandma Zhang would not agree with him going out to take risks. right to speak.

From my mother-in-law's point of view, there are many dangers that you may encounter if you want to become a wizard. It's just finding a bug nearby, and Miao Sheng still has golden silkworm Gu on her body, so there's really no need to make a fuss about it.

Miao Sheng also thought so, so he told Grandma Zhang that he wanted to help his mother-in-law prepare important medicinal materials, and he couldn't stop halfway. He would just eat a ham sandwich at noon, and he didn't need to prepare lunch.

Grandma Zhang didn't understand the medicinal materials, and she was distressed that the little one couldn't have a good meal at noon. She not only prepared sandwiches, but also several snacks such as beef jerky, chocolate yogurt, and Miao Sheng was speechless when she got the big bag. It's camping.

The next day, Miao Sheng got up before dawn, carried water and food on his back, and with a small hatchet stuck in his waist, rode a goat named Zaojiao, and walked through the bamboo forest to the virgin forest behind. set off.

The reason why the goat is named saponins is because its horns are very similar to acacia, both of which have a pointed end at the curved end, and the color is very similar.

As a naming waste, as long as Miao Sheng finds a little similarity, the name is basically confirmed.

The goat has been confused about its own name for a long time, until Miao Sheng found a whole acacia to make gestures with it, and then it resigned itself to its fate and felt that having a name was better than not having one.

The ancient trees in the primeval forest are towering, and the light dims after walking in for a short distance, followed by the smell of humidity, soil and decaying plants. At first, it felt a little bit offensive, but it was fine after a long time. smell.

It is very difficult to find the way in the forest. Fortunately, Zaojiao is a goat, and it is a local breed of Shiwandashan. It not only has excellent jumping ability, but it can stand firmly as long as there is a place to stand.

Miao Sheng put the luggage on Zaojiao's back, and he rode on the back of the neck and shoulders, holding the horns tightly with both hands, which was considered safe.

His spiritual consciousness spread out in an all-round way, making the insects within the enveloping range become pioneers, laying stones for every pit, and stones for water. In the forest, they seem to be able to only lay stones, and even the branches and vines that block the road have to spend It took a lot of work to bite it off, it's not as fast as Miao Sheng wielding his knife.

For the first time, Miao Sheng was a little dissatisfied with his ability. No matter how many insects there are, they are just weak creatures of group size. Some physical tasks cannot be counted on them.

In the forest, the greatest effect of his ability may be that he doesn't need to be bitten by insects. Miao Sheng cut off a tree vine lying in front of him, rubbing his numb mouth and smiling wryly.

Lemon and Jin Jin realized at this moment that they probably got into trouble, they just brought back some worms to play with, but it caused their master to run into such a difficult forest.

Miao Sheng didn't mean to be angry, if it wasn't for the two little ones messing around, he wouldn't have had the chance to learn the art of witchcraft.

He understood that the mother-in-law was the kind of person who had a heart of stone and was desperate to get into a dead end.

In her view, Miao Sheng is just a tool for revenge, not to mention showing much affection, if possible, she would like to bury him and dig it out when she grows up.

Her teaching and training are just to make the tool grow better, but don't expect her to teach him all the methods. Whatever you want to learn in the future, you still have to create opportunities yourself.

Zaojiao bounced forward in the dim light, not only was it exhausted, but Miao Sheng on its back was about to vomit.

Just when he couldn't bear it anymore and wanted Zaojiao to stop and rest for a while, Jin Jin cheered, 【It's coming soon, I remember the fruit of this duck foot tree is very red. 】

Miao Sheng looked up, and a huge tree crown with a head full of small red berries appeared above his head.

He remembered that the book said that the height of the duck foot tree was only 15 meters, but the tree in front of him was obviously taller than the surrounding trees, definitely more than 15 meters, so this was also the result of the recovery of spiritual energy?

Ignoring the unsolvable problems in his mind, Miao Sheng directed the worms to clear out a place to stay among the dead leaves in front of him. Glycyrrhiza dexterously took advantage of the force to jump onto a giant tree lying on the ground not far away. , a small valley with a scenery like a fairy tale world appeared in front of Miao Sheng.

In the valley, there are mountain springs ding-dong, mountain flowers blooming, bamboo forests, ancient tree pavilions, and butterflies flying in them like elves.

I found that Miao Sheng and Zaojiao were stupefied at the beautiful scenery, but they were very proud of Lemon and Jinjin. This was the first place they discovered, and it was even more beautiful than the pictures in the book.

Miao Sheng recovered from the smug laughter of the two little ones, glared at them, and observed that the terrain in the valley was flat, so Miao Sheng told Zaojiao to go in without worry.

They were already very tired, so they just happened to rest in the valley, and eat something to replenish their strength. As for catching the female, I left it to the two little bastards.

From the dark forest to the bright valley, the sun suddenly became stronger, bright and scorching, making people unable to lift their heads.Only now did Miao Sheng realize that they had spent half the morning to come here.

Let Zaojiao stop under a banyan tree that looks like a huge tent, Miao Sheng unloads its luggage and lets it graze alone.

Zaojiao anxiously scratched its hooves while unloading luggage, and when Miao Sheng said it was free to move, it went straight to the small pool formed by the mountain spring, and lowered its head to gnaw the grass by the water.

Miao Sheng was a little puzzled by its eagerness, so he put down his backpack and walked over to see what happened.

The mountain spring flows from a height of three meters along the stone wall to the pool below.

The water in the pool is less than two meters deep, and it is so clear that you can see the lines on the rocks at the bottom. A few small fish are still in the water, like soldiers obeying orders at any time.

As the power of the soul became stronger and stronger, the spiritual pressure emitted by Miao Sheng also increased. Within the range covered by the spiritual consciousness, the small animals all bowed their heads and listened to each other. Even if he did not give any instructions, they would honestly dare not move move.

Miao Sheng quickly withdrew his spiritual consciousness, and reminded himself secretly, don't always use the spiritual pressure when you have nothing to do in the future, so as not to disturb the normal life of other small animals.

As soon as he withdrew his spiritual consciousness, the little animals immediately regained their vitality heartlessly, and the valley was like a still picture, which suddenly became alive.

Lemon and Jinjin had already found the place where the female insects gathered, and Lemon was tired enough, so she went straight to the pool, pointed out the direction for Miao Sheng, and then plunged into the water, filling her stomach with water like gasoline for a car.

He still didn't forget to greet Miao Sheng, 【This water is so sweet, try it quickly. 】

Miao Sheng looked at them helplessly, they usually drank the honey water he put in the bamboo forest to feed fireflies, how could the mountain spring water be so sweet?

He picked up the water and took a sip indifferently. The entrance of the spring water was soft and smooth, clear and sweet. It was the kind of faint sweetness that could be ironed to the bone, and it had a special taste.

Miao Sheng's eyes lit up, this spring water is really amazing, maybe even the grass it nourishes is sweet, no wonder the saponins are eaten so much that they don't even lift their heads.
