Chapter 490
Luck and Blessing
In the small world of demon beasts, opportunities and dangers coexist.
The path to immortality is not easy. There are many people with spiritual roots who cannot achieve immortality. Moreover, the Qin Yan Marquis's Mansion has no foundation in immortality cultivation and generally dares not approach various magical artifacts.
No other reason than that I can't afford it.
Even so, Qin Han actually thought they had extra summoning artifacts.
To be honest, Qin Tang and Qin Xun didn't have any more farming summoning artifacts. These kinds of summoning artifacts suitable for farming were even rarer and more expensive, and it was okay if the patterns were drawn with just a few strokes.
If I draw too many patterns, I won't be able to afford them anymore.
These are usually low-grade summoning artifacts, and they can't be used to summon anything after a few uses.
"If you have nothing to do, you can take a stroll through the Spirit Plant Street." As the second son, Qin Xun had some things he could say, unlike Qin Tang, who, as the eldest brother, generally didn't speak harshly. Qin Xun said, "Ask about the summoning artifacts for farming, the ones for summoning rain and snow. They're usually very expensive. Our Qin Yan Marquis's Mansion has only recently become a cultivation family, and we don't have much of a foundation. How could you think that my elder brother and I don't lack summoning artifacts? Go to the Spirit Plant Street more often, and you'll know how much silver and demon beast crystals cultivation consumes."
Qin Han had nothing more to say, and nodded as if she would listen to her brother. "It was my oversight. Please don't hold it against me, brother. Um, if you come across any summoning artifacts for children on Spirit Plant Street, the prices are reasonable. Keep an eye out for Jiang Shen."
Qin Han lowered her head and glanced at Jiang Shen.
Jiang Shen immediately said, "Uncle, I want a summoning artifact."
"Okay." Qin Xun nodded, feeling a little better.
That's more like it. What kind of tone did Qin Han use just now? Anyone would be unhappy about that. Qin Han was wronged, but Qin Xun and Qin Tang won't hold it against her, since they're all family.
With Jiang Mo and Jiang Shen around, we should at least save face for Qin Han.
"Our Qin Yan Marquis's Mansion has only recently become a cultivation family," Qin Tang said. "We don't have much of a foundation yet, so there's no rush. We'll take it slow."
"Sigh." Jiang Mo tried to smooth things over for Qin Han: "Qin Han is just too hasty. She doesn't have any bad intentions. You are her older brothers, so you should know that Qin Han just cares too much about me and the baby."
Qin Tang nodded, indicating he wouldn't hold it against Qin Xun.
"Brother." Qin Han noticed that Qin Tang and Qin Xun's expressions had softened, and took the opportunity to ask, "Last time you came to the Wilderness, how did you manage to grow spirit vegetables? This time, none of us, whether we have high or average fortune, have been able to grow any spirit vegetables. What's going on?"
Cultivating spiritual crops is like cultivating immortality; it requires gradual exploration. As family members, Qin Tang and Qin Xun shouldn't hold back. Qin Han really wants to grow spiritual vegetables, but even if she can't, someone else can!
As long as it wasn't Qin Bi who grew the spiritual vegetables, Qin Han felt she would have the honor of eating them.
Who's like Qin Bi, so petty and calculating? Is she an outsider? Jiang Mo is a merchant, his family is wealthy, and he can assist Rong Yang and Rong Chi; everyone prospers together.
Qin Bi planted spiritual vegetables, but she and Jiang Mo didn't ask for any, and Qin Bi really didn't give them a single spiritual vegetable.
How could you possibly accept that?
“In the wilderness, planting requires good fortune and luck.” Qin Tang thought for a moment and said, “Qin Bi and Qin Lang were also there at the time, along with my eldest cousin, Prince Qin, perhaps we could have grown the spiritual vegetables.”
The implication is that these people are either blessed or have good fortune.
With good fortune and blessings, it's not surprising to grow miraculous vegetables.
This time, Qin Shizi came to the Wild Land, but Qin Lang and Qin Bi were not there. In other words, Qin Bi and Qin Lang are either blessed or lucky. Qin Tang has no other intentions. He mainly relies on Qin Bi to grow the spiritual vegetables.
Qin Han understood, smiled but didn't speak. What good fortune did Qin Bi have? If anyone was lucky, it was Qin He, who had maxed out her luck stat and even a lucky charm. Qin Xun glanced at Qin Tang. Fine, since Qin Han was unconvinced, Qin Tang wouldn't bring it up again. Qin Han didn't even bother to explain; even if he told her how to grow spirit vegetables, she still wouldn't be convinced.
"Qin He has a maximum level of luck," Qin Han remarked.
Qin Tang remained silent, but Qin Han emphasized that Qin He was blessed.
Qin Xun, not one to mince words, said, “Once Qin He grows the spiritual vegetables, go and ask for a few. Since you and Qin He are on good terms, I’m sure Qin He, unlike Qin Bi, will share some spiritual vegetables with you.”
Seeing that she had displeased Qin Xun, Qin Han fell completely silent.
Finding an excuse, Qin Han went to Qin He's farmland again.
Qin He was extremely annoyed. Her system hadn't made a sound yet, and Qin He felt frustrated and panicked, fearing that the system would leave.
Without the system, Qin He knew that she was no longer some chosen female protagonist in the cultivation world.
Seeing Qin Han walk over, Qin Yuan pulled Qin Jue over as well, staring intently at Qin He's farmland, hoping to find a flower in it. But Qin Jue shook his head; the seedlings in the field were all wilted from the cold.
Qin He was preoccupied and had no interest in planting vegetables. She put away her summoning artifact and left first.
After Qin He left, Qin Yuan and Qin Han felt that there was no good fortune in the area, and they suddenly lost confidence in growing the spirit vegetables. The other people who were close to Qin He also had the same idea.
A few were still diligently using their summoning artifacts. Qin He's departure might be their opportunity, or perhaps their luck wasn't bad either, as they suddenly attracted the Marquis's small lucky group.
As evening fell, Qin Yan led everyone away from the desolate land.
Back at the Marquis's residence, Jiang Mo and Qin Han went to the fourth branch of the household.
Qin Yan and Qin Xiang returned to the main courtyard of the Marquis's residence. Lady Qin Yan asked, "Have you successfully grown the spiritual vegetables?"
Qin Yan: "..."
Qin Xiang: "..."
Every day when they returned, Lady Qin Yanhou and the others would ask the same question: How easy is it to grow spiritual vegetables in the wilderness? Let alone in the wilderness, even in the best first-class fields, it would be a pleasant surprise if you could grow spiritual vegetables.
Unless you belong to a celestial sect, the chances of growing spiritual vegetables are very low.
They're all dreaming.
“The spiritual energy in this desolate land is scarce.” Qin Yan and Qin Xiang sat down. Qin Yan looked up and said to Lady Qin Yanhou, “Plants hardly grow. It’s almost impossible to grow spiritual vegetables in winter.”
As the wife of a marquis, how could Lady Qin Yan not know? Of course she knew.
However, Qin Bi has managed to grow some spiritual vegetables, and they're growing quite well.
"Qin Bi has even grown spiritual vegetables." There was a reason why Lady Qin Yanhou dared to dream of growing spiritual vegetables.
Qin Yan chuckled helplessly: "Qin Lang's little Wugu Fengdengyun put in a lot of effort. You should know that Qin Lang has been blessed since he was a child. Look at Qin Bi. Qin Bi married well and has a noble destiny. She has been with the third branch of the family for several years, so they have developed a bond. Whenever Qin Bi has something to gain, the first person she thinks of is Qin Lang. That kid is very lucky."
Lady Qin Yanhou nodded, deeply agreeing: "Qin Bi is a protector of the clan. Please keep an eye on Qin Bi. I didn't realize before, but this child is very sentimental. Because the Marquis's mansion protected her back then, she never forgets to include the Marquis's mansion in any good things that happen to her." (End of this chapter)
