Cultivating the Dao, Starting with Farming

After the transaction was completed, Li Mu returned to Xiaoliang Mountain with his sword. The journey was smooth and he did not encounter any unsighted Jie Xiu.

Returning to Xiaoliangshan, Li Mu immediately took out half a fan of giant beast pork from the storage bag and marinated it.

Cut it into small meat strips of about one pound, clean it, boil it in a pot of boiling water, and blanch it in the pot to remove the dirt and impurities on the surface.

Let the blanched monster meat cool, then score it evenly a few times, then take a pottery jar, prepare the marinade, and put the meat pieces in one by one to marinate.

After marinating for five or six days, it can be dried and made into bacon for preservation.

Li Mu did not learn ice magic, nor did he build an ice cellar in advance. He decided to dig a basement, get a few ice spiritual stones, set up an ice formation, and make a 'refrigerator' for use later when he had time.

This amount of monster meat is enough for Li Mu to eat for about half a month. It is most suitable to make it into bacon.

"Woo!"

Li Mu was busy in front of the stove. The red wolf that smelled the aroma of meat kept following him, surrounding Li Mu and whining, begging his master to enjoy the meat.

"Take what you are greedy for and chew it!" Li Mu threw a big bone to Red Wolf.

The red wolf immediately picked up the bones, trotted out of the yard, lay down next to the spiritual field, and started chewing.

After marinating most of the demon pork and storing it, Li Mu put some spiritual rice in, cooked a pot of spiritual meat porridge, and made haste for dinner.

Finished dinner.

Li Mu couldn't wait to start counting the harvest from this stall. An ancient banyan heart cutting board can probably carve 8 puppet core sources. With more than a dozen square meters of second-order spiritual peach wood, he can make a batch of battle puppets with peak strength at the ninth level of Qi refining. .

There are more than 900 first-level spiritual talismans of various types, and there are more than 200 left. Four to five hundred spiritual talismans are sold, and the income is: 138 medium spirits, 1840 lower spirits, and broken spirits are negligible.

He exchanged seven second-grade high-grade golden sword talismans, three second-grade high-grade golden armor talismans, and one hundred and seventy first-grade high-grade spiritual talismans with Duan Pinghai for about 11,000 raw red gold ores, plus a large storage bag.

"Well! There are so many storage bags, and now I have become a seven-bag elder!" Li Mu took out seven storage bags and put them on the table. Three were the trophies of the Lei brothers, and the other three were from Xu Lijin. their harvest.

Li Mu picked up the large storage bag containing the raw ore and walked to the refining room. Next, he was going to refine the raw ore to see how much third-level Geng gold and third-level Taiyi fine gold he could obtain.

Tomorrow, after selling the Wind Spirit Grass and disposing of the Cuiling Fruit, I will try my hand at this batch of refining materials to see if I can refine a few more third-level gold spirit swords.

Compared to selling first- and second-level spiritual talismans, the income from selling a third-level spiritual sword is much higher!

In the refining room, the large scorching sun formation inside the second-level scorching sun refining furnace was activated, and the yellow scorching sun spiritual fire was blazing, releasing terrifying high temperatures.

Li Mu sat cross-legged on the stone platform a foot away from the refining furnace. He opened the storage bag, released his consciousness, and controlled pieces of yellow raw ore to fly out of the storage bag and put them into the refining furnace, suspended in the yellow Above the spiritual fire.

In the refining furnace, the high-temperature Yanyang Spiritual Fire quickly melted the pieces of raw ore into a large ball of golden-red liquid metal.

Li Mu threw his spiritual consciousness into it, diverting the molten metal into a ball in the suspended refining furnace, peeling off the golden liquid that sank to the bottom from the red molten slurry with black impurities, and then separated some small, unfinished metal. The melted golden particles are gathered together...

For other refiners, refining materials, especially second-level spiritual minerals, requires multiple batches of smelting, refining, and purification, repeated several times.

However, when it comes to Li Mu, everything has become very simple. The processing process is almost the same as the steps of refining the material of the artifact. Relying on the powerful spiritual consciousness to directly perform the refining operation, the spiritual consciousness guides other impurities to be discharged from the refining furnace, which is efficient and convenient.

At the discharge port on the other side of the Yanyang refining furnace, red magma spurted out, and was discharged from the refining furnace with various impurities. At the same time, at the feed port on the other side, pieces of raw ore were discharged from the storage on their own. The bag flew out and was thrown into the refining furnace, and it went on and on.

While the raw ore is being fed into the refining furnace, impurity magma is being discharged at the same time. The second-order red gold, the third-order Geng gold, and the third-order Taiyi fine gold are trapped in the refining furnace.

In less than half an hour, Li Mu had processed one-third of the raw ore.

I got a large piece of second-level red gold that was emitting heat, estimated to weigh about three hundred kilograms, and two fist-sized pieces of third-level Geng gold and Taiyi fine gold, each weighing three to four kilograms.

His spiritual consciousness was consumed too much, so Li Mu took a short rest and stopped refining the materials.

…

Time flies and one night passes.

Li Mu woke up, washed up, and after breakfast, walked into the refining room to finish last night's work, put pieces of magma rock into storage bags, and took them to the back mountain for dumping.

After pouring the lava, the large storage bag was emptied, and Li Mu put the Fengling haystacks stacked in the spiritual field into the storage bag.

Nine acres of spiritual land produced nearly 50,000 kilograms of wind grass, which cannot even be contained in a large storage bag.

Fortunately, Li Mu is the 'Elder of Seven Bags', so he cleaned out two storage bags and packed them all with wind spirit grass.

Li Mu summoned the red wolf, hugged it, summoned the first-order black iron sword from the storage bag, stood up with the sword, and flew to Qing'an Town to sell wind spirit grass.

"Woo!"

Suddenly being carried into the sky by Li Mu, Chi Lang was frightened and hid his whole head in Li Mu's arms.

"You worthless guy, you'll be here soon!" Li Mu slapped Red Wolf's butt angrily and accelerated the flying speed of his sword.

Xiaoliang Mountain is three or four miles away from Qing'an Town. Li Mu spent two to three hundred breaths before slowly lowering his sword at the south gate of Qing'an Town.

"Follow me! Don't get lost!" Li Mu put the red wolf on the ground and signaled.

"Wang!" Chi Lang responded intelligently. It was the first time he left Xiaoliang Mountain, a small town where people came and went. The unfamiliar environment made him feel novel and uneasy. Chi Lang followed Li Mu closely.

After paying a Broken Spirit to enter the city, Li Mu took Red Wolf and walked straight to Zhangjialing Shepherd's Farm.

"Hey! It's Red Wolf, why are you free to come here today!" At the entrance of Zhangjialing Mufang, Zhang Baiping recognized Red Wolf at a glance, and when he saw Li Mu again, he hurriedly greeted him.

In a strange place, it was rare to see an acquaintance, so Red Wolf excitedly wagged his tail at Zhang Baiping.

"The wind spirit grass is mature. I am here to sell the spirit grass. In addition, I am going to take the examination of the outer disciples. I cannot take care of Red Wolf. Brother Zhang, can you please take care of it for a while?" Li Mu smiled slightly. Explain the purpose.

"So that's it, no problem!" Zhang Baiping suddenly agreed and agreed.

"Thank you, Brother Zhang. The Fenglingcao is here. The quality this time is better than the last batch, about 50,000 kilograms." Li Mu thanked him gratefully and handed over three storage bags.

"Oh! Let me take a look!" Zhang Baiping took the storage bag and took out a handful of wind spirit grass.

"Hey! It's actually the best Fenglingcao. Third uncle, look at it." Zhang Baiping quickly handed a handful of Fenglingcao to Zhang Shouquan at the counter and said excitedly.

Zhang Shouquan put down the account book, took the Fenglingcao and looked at it carefully for a while, then broke off the branch of the Fenglingcao uncertainly, put it in his mouth and chewed it, as if he found something wrong, he frowned.

"Bring out some more and let me take a look!" Zhang Shouquan looked at Zhang Baiping and gestured.

Zhang Baiping quickly handed the storage bag to Zhang Shouquan.

Zhang Shouquan took the storage bag, took out two handfuls of wind spirit grass, broke them, put them in his mouth and chewed them for a while.

"Bah! How did you grow this wind spirit grass? The appearance, spirituality, and appearance all reach the level of top-grade spiritual plants. However, I don't know what went wrong. This batch of wind spirit grass lacks a large part of its essence and value. It has been reduced a lot, and I can only give you one hundred kilograms of spirit at most." Zhang Shouquan spat out the wind spirit grass in his mouth, looked at Li Mu with a strange expression, and asked.

Li Mu was slightly stunned, and immediately knew the reason. It must be the relationship between talent and spiritual planting.

"Third uncle!" Zhang Baiping thought that Zhang Shouguan was deliberately lowering the price and shouted dissatisfied.

"Okay! Just sell it at this price! Brother Zhang! Let's go weigh it!" Li Mu quickly stopped him and signaled.

Zhang Baiping glanced at Li Mu suspiciously, nodded, and took him to weigh the wind spirit grass.
