You Practice Immortality, I Farm

  Chapter 73 The Wind Rises

   "As long as the hall can provide me with enough second-grade and third-grade spiritual seeds, then I will naturally cultivate spiritual plants wholeheartedly."

   Lu Xuan replied very practically.

  Painting cakes, no one will be the same, as long as you can get the exact rare spiritual species, needless to say the attitude of nurturing.

   The two chatted for a while, and Lu Xuan found a reason to leave.

  Before he left, he said goodbye to Guanshi He and came to the casual repair market.

  There were a lot more monks in the market than before. Some of the monks were in a hurry and looked tired, as if they had just returned from the wilderness.

  A variety of monster materials appeared on the booth, and many new varieties of spiritual plants and spiritual medicines appeared.

   Lu Xuan was scrutinizing whether there were any unknown and rare spirit species, while listening intently to the discussions of the past monks.

  From the monk's words, he learned that a large number of casual cultivators who had gone to open up a new secret realm had just returned to Fangshi.

   "I don't know if Brother Zhang is back this time?"

   Lu Xuan muttered to himself, thinking of Zhang Hong's family who had taken good care of him.

  He originally wanted to go to Wanbao Building to buy an alchemy furnace to prepare for the alchemy later, but after hearing the news, he temporarily changed his route and went to the gathering place for casual cultivators in the North District.

  After moving out from the outskirts of the North District, Lu Xuan rarely returned there.

  The only ones he was familiar with were Zhang Hong's family. It was inconvenient for him to go there when Zhang Hong was out, but Zhang Xiuyuan came to play with Lu Xuan a few times at the beginning.

   It's just that after the evil spirits invaded and alienated monks appeared from time to time, his behavior was restricted by his mother Xu Wan, and he hadn't been seen for several months.

  He bought several catties of spirit beast meat in the market, and carried it outside Zhang's courtyard.

   There was a knock on the door, and a crack opened in the courtyard door, revealing Zhang Xiuyuan's curious face.

   "Little Uncle Lu, are you here?!"

   "Father! Mother! Little Uncle Lu is here."

  The moment he saw Lu Xuan, Zhang Xiuyuan, who had partnered with exterminators and formed a deep friendship, exclaimed in surprise.

   "Xiao Yuan, have you grown so tall?"

  After not seeing him for a few months, Zhang Xiuyuan suddenly grew a lot taller, already slightly surpassing Lu Xuan's shoulders.

  He entered the yard with a smile, and saw Zhang Hong and the two coming out.

   "Brother Zhang, sister-in-law, long time no see!"

   When acquaintances met each other, Lu Xuan was delighted and greeted with a smile.

  The same is true for both of them.

   "Brother Lu, I saw you. When I came back, I heard Xiao Yuan said that you moved away. I was still thinking about it. I didn't expect you to come!"

  Zhang Hong grabbed Lu Xuan's arm and enthusiastically pulled him into the room.

   "Brother Zhang, what happened to your hand?"

  Lu Xuan noticed the abnormality of Zhang Hong's arm, the arm under the sleeve was obviously much smaller.

  Zhang Hong smiled wryly, and rolled up his sleeves, revealing his withered arm that looked like an old tree. The flesh and blood on the arm was withered, and even part of the gray-white skeleton was exposed.

   "I was unlucky in reclaiming that new secret realm this time. I encountered a surreptitious evil spirit, and I accidentally sucked the flesh of an arm."

   "Fortunately, I saved my life, and I can see you, little brother Lu again."

   "Can you recover? Is there anything I can do to help?"

   Lu Xuan asked with a serious expression.

   "After a period of recuperation, you should be able to fully recover. As for complete recovery, it will be a bit difficult."

  Zhang Hong replied optimistically.

  Lu Xuan nodded. Unfortunately, his newly obtained Xuepo Pill is mainly used to quickly restore Qi and blood, and it has little effect on this kind of injury that requires muscle growth.

   "I went to reclaim the secret realm this time. Although I was seriously injured, it was a blessing in disguise. I broke through to the fourth level of Qi training."

   "I originally wanted to show off after seeing you, little brother Lu, but I didn't expect you to stay in Fangshi all the time, and your cultivation base improved faster than me, and you also reached the fourth level of Qi training before you knew it."

  The two sat at the table, drinking tea and chatting, Xu Wan and Zhang Xiuyuan were preparing to cook in the kitchen, and Tayun lynx walked slowly in Zhang's Lingtian.

   "The quality of the spiritual plants I planted recently is not bad, and Baicaotang has established a certain cooperative relationship, so I earned a lot of spiritual stones."

   "Before, due to the limitation of spiritual power, it was impossible to cultivate and plant too many spiritual plants. After learning from the pain, I used almost all the spiritual stones to buy medicines to improve the cultivation level, so as to break through to the fourth level of Qi training in a short time."

   Lu Xuan said nonsense, anyway, whether it is the cultivation reward brought by the white light group, or the improvement of cultivation after taking a large amount of elixir, they are all under the guise of foreign things, so he found an excuse that is easier to accept.

  Satisfied with food and drink, Lu Xuan and Zhang Hong sat in the yard, while Zhang Xiuyuan teased Tayunlynx.

  Tayun lynx had a cold expression, and her green eyes were emotionless. She ignored Zhang Xiuyuan's teasing, but kept keeping a close distance with him.

  In the courtyard, the two moon eclipse trees that Lu Xuan left them were planted on both sides, with lush branches and leaves, already bearing crescent-like silvery-white fruits, looming among the dense leaves.

   "This time I came back from the new secret realm, I was lucky enough to pick up a life, and I have some different ideas."

  Zhang Hong opened up the chatterbox.

   "Before, I always thought that even if it would be risky to go out to explore the secret realm, I would not encounter it. I always dreamed of getting various opportunities."

   "However, reality will always hit you head-on. As the exploration of new secret realms gets deeper and deeper, more and more dangers appear. I have witnessed with my own eyes that a whole team was killed by evil spirits in the distance."

   "There are more than a dozen monks, and there are several middle-level Qi-training monks among them, who were easily killed by a treacherous evil spirit just like that."

  A trace of fear flashed in Zhang Hong's eyes, and he took a deep breath before he recovered.

   "Perhaps in the future, like you little brother Lu, you will be an honest and responsible spiritual planter, and spend your life with your wife and children in peace."

   “It’s just a matter of time to rest, to recuperate from injuries, and to think about the future path.”

   Lu Xuan said, he did not persuade Zhang Hong what to do, every choice cannot be said to be right or wrong.

   "Brother Zhang, why don't you tell me about the situation in the secret realm? Although I don't want to go out and take risks, I still want to listen to Zhang."

   "Okay, yes, it's always right to know more about evil spirits."

  The two of them were talking in a low voice, and the wind blew up in the yard at some point, making the branches and leaves of the eclipse tree rustle.

  …

  Fang City Center, Wangjia.

  On the top of a tens of feet tall building, the Patriarch of the Wang Family overlooked the entire Linyangfang City without saying a word.

   "Chong'an, what are the two sect companions you brought with you doing now?"

  A handsome young man standing quietly behind him stepped forward and said respectfully.

   "With the help of the two senior brothers and sisters, the evil spirits and alienated monks in the square city have been almost cleaned up, but the cunning level evil spirit has not been found. I don't know if it is too strong in concealment, or it has returned to the secret realm."

   "You don't have to worry about this, as long as you treat them well."

   "When the formation in the center of the secret realm is broken, find an opportunity to take them to the secret realm together, and use their power to clean up the evil spirits in the secret realm."

"yes."

  The handsome young man replied in a deep voice.

  Above the tall building, the wind howled, and the green and black robes fluttered in the wind.
