Eternal Cultivation: Starting with Three Generations Living Together
Chapter 102 Old Man Luo
The next day, Xue Liyi came to this spiritual field and found Old Man Luo.
Old Man Luo looks like a dark-skinned, lean old man with many wrinkles on his face.
He sat on the ridge of the field, smoking a dry cigarette.
Xue Li used his spiritual eye technique to take a look and found that this man had the fourth level of Qi training.
"Hey, you are the new Brother Xue, right... did you just use the spiritual eye technique?"
Seeing Xue Li nodding, he warned sternly: "Spirit Eye Technique must not be used indiscriminately. Some monks value privacy very much. If you are discovered by others using Spirit Eye Technique, you will inevitably be beaten... This kind of thing is what happened. It’s the other party’s fault when it comes to Manager Li, and even... I’ve heard of people being killed because of this!”
Hearing this, Xue Li was slightly surprised.
But he reacted quickly. He hugged Old Man Luo and apologized sincerely: "I'm sorry, Old Man Luo!"
Old Man Luo waved the hand holding the cigarette rod: "Those who don't know are not guilty. Just pay attention in the future. I heard... you come from the fog, but you haven't encountered the twin evil spirits of the fog?"
"Two evil spirits of mist?"
"They are just two robbery cultivators. They were originally spiritual farmers from the nearby Yanyafang City. When they went out to collect medicine, they had great luck and accidentally entered a cave. From that cave, the two got the Beast Control Sect's secrets. inherited!"
"I don't know how those two people got another black-striped snake later, and then they started killing people and setting fires!"
Upon hearing this, Xue Li immediately reacted. Isn't the black snake the same big snake that swallowed him several times? This snake was actually raised by humans.
The Two Evils of Mist, right? Very good. He has memorized the names of these two enemies.
"Doesn't Liuyangfang care about this matter?"
"Control? The twin evil spirits of the mist are wandering around everywhere. You can change places just for one thing. Who do you think should be in charge of it? If you want to control it, then of course the one who should be in charge is Yanyafang."
"And it's not easy to control... Once the twin evil spirits of the mist came to Zijinfang and killed a monk from Zijinfang."
"Zijinfang sent a patrol team to search in the fog, but they couldn't find it after months of searching."
"And just a few weeks after they retreated, the twin demons suddenly appeared and attacked and killed a spiritual farmer from Zijinfang before walking away!"
"But it's been quite strange recently. These two demons have been spending a lot of time with us, and I don't know what they are planning... Okay, after chatting, it's time to talk about business. ...Ahem!"
Old Man Luo coughed twice and took a few puffs of dry tobacco before continuing: "You made up your mind yesterday and wanted to be a spiritual farmer?"
Xue Li nodded.
"Our Liuyangfang is like this... we have to hand over one spiritual stone every month."
"Since you are new here, our city can let you pay one year later..."
"After one year, the annual rent will be twelve spiritual stones, plus the three spiritual stones required to provide proof of residence in Fang City, for a total of fifteen spiritual stones. Since you paid one year late, we will charge you the interest of one more spiritual stone, for a total of sixteen dollars. Spiritual stone!"
"You have collected one or two waves of spiritual plants at that time. There should be no problem if you work hard with more than a dozen spiritual stones."
After speaking, Old Man Luo touched his back and conjured up a contract like magic.
"This is a contract. Take a look at it for yourself first. If it's OK, just put a pledge here!"
Xue Li took the contract and read it carefully.
If you don't understand this kind of contract, you can easily be deceived.
He read the contract over and over again.
Most places are not a big problem, only two places seem to be problematic.
One is that 30% of the income from planting must be handed over to the market.
Three taxes per ten is a little too much.
Most of the countries he had experienced before had a tax of one for ten, or even one for thirty, but in this cultivation world, the tax was three...
The other is that if the spirit stones are not repaid after one year, all the spirit stones owed to Fang City will be added together to calculate interest.
Compounding profits...
After thinking about it, Xue Li decided to sign.
If he doesn't sign this contract, he will definitely be kicked out of the city. He doesn't know the locations of the other cities yet. During this time, he can definitely find a way to collect more information in this regard.
Once you collect more information, it will be more convenient to go where you want to go in the future.
Let’s take a look at the situation first and ask for information. Maybe other cities are just as good as here.
If you find out that this city is really a scam, it's not too late to leave.
Seeing that Xue Li had signed it, Old Man Luo quickly took the contract away, and then said kindly:
"Brother Xue, since we have signed the contract, we are all our own, and I, Lao Luo, will not cheat you. You will not have a good time in the next year..."
"how?"
"Hehe, it's okay if you are an old farmer like the old man. The task is indeed not heavy, but if you have no experience and no cultivation, it may be difficult for you to complete this task and pay off the spiritual stones, unless..."
Speaking of this, Old Man Luo deliberately made a mistake.
Xue Li praised him consciously: "Unless what?"
"Unless you master two spells..."
"What spell?"
"These are the spells that two old spiritual farmers must learn. One is called Spring Wind Technique, and the other is called Rain Transformation Technique!"
"If the spiritual field is left alone for a period of time, miasma will breed, and the miasma will rob the spiritual energy of the spiritual plants. This spring breeze technique can blow away the miasma in the fields and make the spiritual plants healthier!"
"As for the Rain Transformation Technique... This spell can gather the water vapor around the spiritual land to form a light rain..."
"This rain is different from ordinary rain. It is spiritual rain formed by gathering water vapor around the spiritual land... Regular use can nourish spiritual plants. The effect of this rain transformation technique is much better than direct watering!"
Afterwards, Old Man Luo boasted about these two spells, as if as long as he mastered these two spells, the spiritual land would be able to have a bumper harvest. There were so many spiritual stones that the debt could be paid off in one year.
Xue Li listened to his bragging with a smile.
It turned out that I was waiting here. I guess there must be something fishy about these two spells.
However, as a famous spiritual farmer in this area, Old Man Luo will inevitably have to deal with him in the future.
No need to worry about debts.
After listening for a while, Xue Li pretended to be interested and asked:
"Then where can I learn these two spells?"
Just waiting for this sentence.
Old Man Luo curled his lips slightly and pointed at himself with the cigarette rod.
Xue Li pretended to hesitate and said: "But I don't have any spiritual stones, and I still owe Fangshi more than a dozen spiritual stones!"
Old Man Luo waved his hand: "Harm, what's the matter? I'll teach you these two spells for free, but... I don't have any hobbies, I just like to drink green bitter wine. If you can bring a bottle to the old man every time you study, good."
"Green bitter wine..."
Seeing Xue Li's slightly embarrassed expression, Old Man Luo laughed: "In this case, I will lend you two spiritual stones first, and you can pay them back within a year, and I won't charge you any interest. When you pay them back..."
Xue Li immediately understood what he meant: "I'll bring you a bottle of green bitter wine!"
"Haha, okay, you said that yourself!"
Seeing that Xue Li agreed quickly and the words were completed without much effort, Old Man Luo was very happy.
He chatted a lot with Xue Li again.
Xue Li had his own plans for agreeing so quickly.
Creditors also have benefits. As a creditor, you don't have to worry about old man Luo not teaching the real thing.
After all, if he can't grow anything in the end, he will end badly, and all of Old Man Luo's investment will be in vain.
Next, Old Man Luo took Xue Li to a wasteland that was overgrown with weeds and shrouded in miasma.
"Just this piece of land! From now on, this piece of land will be handed over to you, Brother Xue! Work hard..."
After taking two steps, Old Man Luo stopped again: "Oh, I am getting old, there is one thing I almost forgot to mention..."
Old Man Luo's face suddenly became very serious: "Brother Xue, if you encounter evil black smoke around the spiritual land, you must report it immediately!"
"Evil black smoke?"
"This evil black smoke is a very special kind of miasma. It is no different from miasma at first, but when it reaches a certain level, it will form black smoke!"
"This kind of smoke is extremely terrifying. Once a person swallows or touches this black eye, he may be possessed by evil spirits. Once possessed, it is extremely difficult to cure. Even if the foundation-building ancestor takes action, it will take a lot of effort."
"When you encounter evil black smoke, don't use the Spring Wind Technique to blow it away. When the wind blows, the black smoke will scatter everywhere."
"We ordinary monks can't deal with this kind of evil smoke. If you find it, report it to the patrol team immediately. Do you understand?"
Seeing that Old Man Luo was so serious, Xue Li understood the seriousness of the matter. Is there evil and black smoke...
"Understood!"
