Chapter 79
: The Manor, A Stunning Encounter (Please continue reading)
"That is..."
While Li Changsheng was lost in thought.
A clear, melodious voice came from the side.
"Isn't it magnificent? Those are manors built by our seniors, brothers, and sisters, filled with rare and priceless spiritual plants, and it's even said that they contain the legendary 'celestial spirits'..."
"manor…"
Li Changsheng was puzzled for a moment, then turned his head to look.
Then, sitting opposite them, was a beautiful young woman, about sixteen years old, dressed in purple.
It was Ning Cheng who had helped him disinfect the paddy fields not long ago.
Li Changsheng quickly and politely cupped his hands, saying, "Senior Sister Ning."
"Junior Brother Li."
Ning Cheng nodded with a smile, glanced curiously at Ya Ya in his arms, and without asking further questions, inquired with concern:
"How's your paddy field?"
"These paddy fields are not easy to manage; they require meticulous care. Whether it's insects or diseases, a single mishap can ruin the paddy fields, leading to a poor harvest of the 'miracle rice,' or even its extinction."
Only after explaining the drawbacks can the true intention be revealed.
"Would you like me to disinfect it again?"
"With the 'Golden Rain Technique' used to eliminate pests and diseases, your paddy fields are guaranteed to be free of pests and diseases for a month. If pests and diseases do occur within a month, we guarantee a refund of the spirit stones..."
He enthusiastically promoted his business without the slightest embarrassment, clearly a seasoned professional.
"Senior Sister Ning is also a person with a steadfast Dao heart..."
Li Changsheng sighed inwardly and replied politely:
"I've raised a brood of 'Rice Flower Carp' spirit fish, and so far I haven't noticed anything wrong with the paddy field. If any diseases occur later, I will definitely ask Senior Sister Ning for help."
"Raising spirit fish."
Ning Cheng's smile remained unchanged as she praised:
"Although the investment is quite large, it is indeed a good way to prevent disease. When the fish are plump after the autumn harvest, I will definitely go to Brother Li's paddy field to buy an authentic 'rice flower carp' to try."
We exchanged a few polite words.
Ning Cheng then turned her gaze to the few spirit farmers who were talking not far away. After a brief pause, she joined their conversation in a few words.
Not long after.
A spiritual farmer whose crops had been infested with pests reached a preliminary agreement with Ning Cheng to clear the pests, planning to visit the spiritual field after the "sacrificial field" ceremony before discussing payment.
"sharp…"
Upon seeing this, Li Changsheng was immediately filled with admiration.
He paid close attention to their conversation throughout, and Ning Cheng subtly inquired about the situation of the spirit farmers' fields, offering some useful advice and successfully securing potential orders.
After Ning Cheng left her seat, she went elsewhere to discuss orders.
He couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
He developed the "Minor Cloud and Rain Technique" through self-cultivation.
He went to the "office" more than once.
Not only were there few tasks available, but due to the recent heavy rain, there were absolutely no tasks to irrigate the "spirit fields".
Ning Cheng's approach opened up new avenues of thought for him.
There are no missions in the "Office".
This does not mean that the spirit farmers do not lack "spiritual rain" to irrigate their spirit fields. Perhaps they find the trips too troublesome, or perhaps they do not want to pay the "office's" handling fee, which is why they have no missions.
But there are still many potential customers.
Thinking of this.
Li Changsheng glanced at the crowded flatbed cart, and when he saw some farmers with beads of sweat on their foreheads, his mind suddenly stirred. He looked up at the rising sun in the sky, and his eyes lit up.
"Got it!..."
He did not rush to take action.
Instead, he began to observe his surroundings.
Both sides of the road.
The vegetation is lush and green.
Occasionally, winding paths extend to the large and small protective structures not far away, which are the manors Ning Cheng mentioned.
Occasionally, strange beasts are seen riding in vehicles.
However, it was tightly wrapped.
It made it impossible to see what was being transported in the carriage.
As the flatbed cart gradually disappeared into the distance.
The number of "manors" has decreased sharply, but their scale has become increasingly grand.
And the reason is unknown.
The vegetation along the roadside has become short and sparse.
The scorching sun and the noisy chirping of crickets made some of the farmers on the cart visibly irritable, and their originally boisterous voices gradually became quiet.
They all picked up their straw hats and fanned themselves.
I tried to drive away the heat and the noisy chirping of crickets.
Perhaps it's a change in atmosphere.
After several unsuccessful attempts to negotiate, Ning Cheng returned to her seat, smiled and nodded at Li Changsheng, put on her bamboo hat, and closed her eyes to rest.
"The opportunity is coming..."
A smile flickered in Li Changsheng's eyes as he gently patted Ya Ya, who had slowly fallen asleep in his arms out of boredom.
We waited until noon when the sun was at its hottest.
He glanced at the spirit farmers on the large cart and saw that most of them were irritable from the heat, their foreheads covered in sweat. He nodded to himself.
"It's time..."
With eyes closed and mind focused, he concentrated on the blue clouds formed by the "Minor Cloud and Rain Technique" in his dantian. With a slight thought, a ball of spiritual energy surged into the clouds.
Li Changsheng opened his eyes and gently tapped his hand.
A bluish light suddenly appeared, flew to the top of his head, and quickly transformed into a cloud the size of a millstone, radiating spiritual light.
Invisible water vapor and spiritual energy gathered in the air.
Under his control.
The spiritual cloud created by the "Minor Cloud Rain Technique" expanded to its limit.
It is ten zhang in circumference.
Li Changsheng sensed the consumption of spiritual energy. If he only maintained the rain cloud without letting the spiritual rain fall, allowing the cloud to consume its own spiritual energy, the consumption of spiritual energy would be almost imperceptible.
He nodded to himself.
Immediately under his control, the clouds turned towards the blazing sun, casting a large area of shade. Due to the effects of the "Water Mist Spirit Clouds" and "Spirit Springs," they emitted a cool sensation, quickly dispelling the surrounding heat.
"Um?"
While the other Lingnong were still in a daze...
Front of the car.
The obese young car owner and the burly bald body-refining cultivator both took a deep breath, feeling the cool sensation flowing into their bodies quickly dispel the internal heat.
The two exchanged a glance and clicked their tongues in amazement.
"This person's 'Little Cloud Rain Technique' is of such high quality..."
At this time.
Li Changsheng carefully placed Ya Ya on the chair, stood up, and, meeting the surprised and curious gazes of the assembled spirit farmers, cupped his hands and smiled:
"My name is Li Changsheng. The 'Minor Cloud and Rain Technique' I cultivate produces rain that is light, clear, and easily absorbed by grains and spiritual plants."
If any senior brother or sister wishes to water the spiritual field.
You can go to Lingtian in District C, courtyard number 121 to find a lackey. The price is negotiable, and discounts are available for bulk orders.
After saying that, he controlled the "spiritual cloud" to let some raindrops fall, and then without saying anything more, he picked up the sleeping Ya Ya and sat down again.
opposite.
Ning Cheng opened her eyes, glanced at Li Changsheng a few times, and gave him a thumbs up.
Some of the other spirit farmers accepted the spirit rain to taste, while others paid no attention, closing their eyes to enjoy the rare coolness.
A short while passed.
The spirit farmers couldn't help but raise their heads, looking at the spiritual clouds above them, and then at Li Changsheng, who was resting with his eyes closed to recover his spiritual power. They were slightly surprised by the depth of his spiritual power.
Half an hour passed.
The Lingnong looked at the rain clouds again, somewhat shocked.
Who is this Li Changsheng?
When did such a person appear in District C? How come their spiritual power seems inexhaustible?
One hour.
Two hours have passed…
The spiritual cloud above his head remained stable, showing no sign of dissipating.
"hiss…"
"This person's aura isn't strong, so how can they last so long?"
"Strange, Li Changsheng? We'll remember him..."
"This person must have an extremely high compatibility with the 'Minor Cloud Rain Technique'!"
"But if it can last for several hours, how high must his compatibility be?! I'm afraid it's less than 60%... "
"Did you just sample the spiritual rain? It was very potent and easy to absorb. It's far superior to the 'Minor Cloud Rain Technique' used by the ones I invited before..."
"After the 'field sacrifice' incident, please ask him to give it a try..."
"Sector C, Number 121, Li Changsheng..."
"..."
While Li Changsheng was lost in thought.
A clear, melodious voice came from the side.
"Isn't it magnificent? Those are manors built by our seniors, brothers, and sisters, filled with rare and priceless spiritual plants, and it's even said that they contain the legendary 'celestial spirits'..."
