National Gardener: I can choose the evolution path of spiritual plants

Immortal Continent, Human World, Eight Treasures Immortal Sect.

Haoran Peak, Jade Emperor Palace.

An old man with an immortal spirit was meditating and practicing, when suddenly a middle-aged man rushed in eagerly.

"Master, something bad has happened!"

"Is there a drought?"

"Yes, the patrol angel sent a letter, saying, saying..."

"say what?"

"In Pingchuan Prefecture, Liangzhou, there is a severe drought, and people eat each other! Evil spirits are coming back, and peace comes out."

"Why wasn't this drought reported earlier?"

"The master of Pingchuan Mansion failed to refine and subdue the three-legged Golden Crow, which caused the Golden Crow to escape. Shuangri Lingkong sealed the entire Pingchuan Mansion in order to conceal the news of the Golden Crow and his own fault. Later, the Spirit of Heaven discovered the anomaly and sent out patrol angels to investigate. , only to know the truth.”

"Where is Lord Pingchuan?"

"Beheaded!"

"It's an advantage for him. Go quickly to allocate food for disaster relief. In addition, the foreign tribes outside the Immortal Dynasty, such as the Eastern Yi, Western Di, Southern Barbarians, and Beirong, are watching with eager eyes. There must be no civil strife. The Taiping Demon Road must be wiped out."

"yes!"

The middle-aged man left in a hurry.

…

Immortal Continent, Liangzhou, Pingchuan Prefecture, Sanshan County.

In a charred spiritual field, Lin Zhi looked at the deserted spiritual field calmly.

"The identity of this time traveler is too humble. How to solve the problem of food and clothing for this body is a difficult problem. If you want to promote the village chief's daughter quickly, you still have to consider the long term."

He sighed leisurely.

The spiritual seed Qinghui Yueyun cannot be planted by just tapping his head and pouring blood on it.

Not to mention that they are in love, at least he has the ability to forcefully twist melons, right?

But now in this body, he only has the strength to practice Qi, and there is no food left at home, so he cannot support him to continue practicing.

What lies ahead now is a natural disaster!

Since the double sun was in the sky ten days ago, these days there has been only daylight.

The scorching sun scorched the earth, causing water sources to dry up and crops to be exposed to the sun.

He is just a monk from a humble family who is on the first level of Qi training. The "Rain and Dew Spell" he just learned cannot condense any water vapor at all, so he can only rely on the ancestral spiritual well to survive.

As the water level in the spiritual well dropped day by day, he knew that the water in his well was only a drop in the bucket and could not save the spiritual valley in the spiritual field.

Of the entire 10 acres of spiritual land, only a vegetable patch that I had carefully taken care of before was left.

The scorching sun had been in the sky for ten days, and he heard that the core area of ​​Pingchuan Mansion had been reduced to ruins. It was said that the originally boundless Lingtian land was now charred, with no grass growing anywhere.

The neighboring counties outside the core area of ​​Pingchuan Prefecture were the most severely affected. A large area of ​​the village had ten rooms and nine empty houses. Lying on the ground were either creatures roasted into mummies by the sun's true flames, or monks with no food supplements and withered spiritual power.

Most of the bones that were eaten were only the bones of Kaikai's bones. These bones were not very complete and were even broken into pieces, with not even a trace of the marrow left inside.

Compared with the counties connected to Pingchuan Prefecture in the core area of ​​Jinwu self-explosion, Sanshan County, where Lin Zhi is located, is on the edge of Pingchuan Prefecture, so the disaster was relatively smaller.

Although the crops were only burned to death, they were not turned into charcoal...

Although the rivers have evaporated, the deep groundwater has not dried up.

As long as they endure hunger, live a hard life, re-sow seeds, and rely on ancestral spiritual wells, they can still harvest a season of spiritual grains in autumn.

However, when he walked out of the spiritual field and was about to return to his home nearby, he bumped into Wang Papi surrounded by immortal servants.

Wang Papi was a rich man with a fat face. He was holding a chicken leg in his hand and walking towards Lin Zhi while chewing it.

"Lin Zhi, it's time to pay back the 11 Stone Spirit Valley your father owes!" Wang Papi approached Lin Zhi and motioned to his servant to bring out an IOU.

Lin Zhi looked at the IOU and saw that it read, "I will borrow 1 stone of Linggu from Wangzhuang now and pay it back 10 times in the coming year at the latest. The repayment period is not fixed. If collection is collected in advance, 1 stone will be deducted every two months. If it is overdue, it will be repaid every month." Double."

The name signed on it is correct, it is the handwriting of the cheap dad in this life.

"Master Wang, I remember that my father borrowed Linggu in September last year, and it's only July now." Lin Zhi said.

"That's right, but I'm not having a good time due to the disaster this year. The food and clothing are tight, so I can only let you repay it in advance. According to the IOU agreement, you only need to repay 10 shi." Wang Papi looked at Lin Zhi with a smile on his face.

"It's a severe drought and there's no harvest. No matter what, I can't produce these 10 stone spirit grains."

Lin Zhi said, "If Mr. Wang gives me a few more months of grace, when the new season's crops grow, I can pay him back even 20 times."

"No, I will pay you back now, even if you only have one stone left to store food."

Master Wang said with a smile, "Those who know the current affairs are heroes. In the current situation, you might as well join my village and become a servant. In this way, you not only don't have to pay off debts, but also don't have to worry about food, clothing, taxes and corvee. If you endure hardships and stand hard work, If you work hard and perform well, it will not be difficult to reward you with a maid to carry on the family line. "

"Master Wang Zhuang's kindness is appreciated. Although I, Lin Zhi, come from a poor family, according to my father, my ancestor was also an outer disciple of the Shuide Immortal Sect. It is absolutely impossible for me to be under the influence of others."

If it is true as Wang Bapi said, it is not bad. He can use this maid to plant Qinghui Yuyun, but how can such a good thing happen?

This is selling oneself into slavery, and it is impossible for Lin Zhi to be a servant, otherwise the body's start will be even worse.

"Then, just fend for yourself!"

Master Wang's expression suddenly changed. He waved his hand and said, "Go and search for food and valuables. Move them away. There is also the land deed. Please hand it over."

"Don't move! But if you dare to take a step forward, blood will splash three feet!"

Lin Zhi glared angrily. Due to the drought, all he has left is an old hen laying eggs and more than ten kilograms of spiritual rice. The most important thing is the land deed. If the spiritual field is also taken away, he is afraid that his spiritual power will be exhausted this year, and he will starve. die.

Then he can only start over, which is a waste of time.

Besides, he has a body that is not afraid of wearing shoes when barefoot, and with the system of the Eight Treasures Immortal Sect, he still has a chance to deal with Wang Papi and frighten the opponent.

"What, you want to resist?"

Hearing Lin Zhi yelling angrily, Wang Bapi pointed to the head held up by a slave behind him.

Lin Zhi couldn't help but look to the side.

"Isn't this my neighbor, Chen Ergou from the second floor of Qi training stage?"

He did not expect that his neighbor Chen Ergou had been killed.

"Stay there and don't move. There are laws of the Immortal Dynasty, and I won't do anything to you. But if you resist, the end is right in front of you!"

Hearing this, Lin Zhi took out his hatchet and sneered, "Come on! Heavenly Spirit is above, can you try to move?"

"Huh, Tianling? Are you threatening me?"

Wang Papi dismissed it.

"Threat? No, I'm just telling the truth. This ancestral spiritual well of mine has the imprint of my soul on it. Once I die, the self-destruction circle on the spiritual well will be activated by me.

Heaven has witnessed that I did not intentionally damage the spiritual well. Even if I become a ghost cultivator after my death, I will be exempted from the responsibility for damaging the spiritual well. Instead, it is you who need to pay with your life for forcing me to death and causing the destruction of the spiritual well. "

Lin Zhi gritted his teeth and said, "If you stop for now, even if I starve to death or die in the sun, I will never destroy the spiritual well. After all, I don't want to be captured by the city god for destroying the spiritual well after my death, and suffer the pain of purgatory. Even a ghost cultivator can’t do it.”

Wang Bapi sneered, "Just destroying a spiritual well, can this scare me away? My ancestor was a ghost soldier under the current City God. Do you think I have the means to access the underworld now?"

"You can bluff others with your words, but you still want to bluff me? With the witness of the spirit of heaven, the City God will blatantly challenge the heavenly laws of the Immortal Dynasty for this matter?"

Through the memory of his predecessor, Lin Zhi knew that there were billions of incarnations of absolutely ruthless and fair heavenly spirits in this world, monitoring all directions, similar to the Infinite Skynet, but not as comprehensive as it.

The patrolling angels under Tianling can kill the feudal officials on the ground, the underground city gods and ghosts, and the mountain gods and landmen first and then report.

As long as you violate the law, the gods will record it and you will be accounted for even after death.

As long as it does not violate the law, even if it is taken by force, it is free.

Those powerful families in power have many ways to avoid it, use the law, and some ways to deal with ordinary people.

But the landlord class in this kind of village is not that capable.

in addition. This so-called spiritual well was constructed using precious materials and costing a lot of money to install. It was a large formation node in the entire human world, and it was used to farm cattle at the top of agriculture.

In military terms, it is the same as a fortress.

Those who destroy spiritual wells will be punished by the nine tribes and sent to hell.

Seeing Lin Zhi's desperate look, Wang Bapi laughed angrily:

"Okay, very good. The debt deadline is in two months. If you haven't starved to death by then, just wait to be enslaved by me!"

…

Seeing Wang Papi and his subordinates leaving cursingly, Lin Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and quickly returned to the yard.

Wang Papi will definitely not give up after today, and he may use some nasty means to deal with him.

Although there was supervision from the Spirit of Heaven, as long as he did not activate the self-destruction of the spiritual well in time when he was killed, the impact of his death as an ordinary person would be too small, and Wang Bapi would not be punished too much.

Spiritual wells are like plowing cattle in ancient times, they are more valuable than human life. Lin Zhi's ancestor was once an outer disciple of the Immortal Sect. But it took several generations of savings to apply for the construction of this spiritual well.

It is easy to hide from an open gun, but difficult to guard against a hidden arrow.

"The most urgent task is to improve your cultivation!"

Lin Zhi returned to the bedroom, lay on the bed, and then closed his eyes.

In my mind, a 16-karat hardcover color printed book appeared.

This is a recipe deduced by the Palace of Knowledge by sorting out the basic skills of this world. The title of the book is "1000 Classic Recipes from Eight Major Cuisines and Basic Cooking Knowledge"

Looking at this book that collects recipes and understanding and preparation of various kitchen utensils, cooking methods, sauces, and seasonings, Lin Zhi smiled on his face.

It is not that the monks in this world do not eat the smoke and fire of the world, they only rely on eating wind, drinking dew, and practicing Qi to prevent grains.

Monks need to eat to practice!

The most basic food for monks is various spiritual grains, or elixirs made from various spiritual medicines, or honey made from various spiritual flowers.

It is not easy to eat spiritual grains to strengthen the body and increase spiritual power. Monks need a lot of time to refine the spiritual energy in the spiritual grains every day.

And the dishes, although not rich in spiritual energy, can help refine the spiritual grain.

Just like ordinary people who only eat staple food and meat are prone to constipation, are not easy to digest, and are nutritionally unbalanced. If you eat more fruits and vegetables to supplement dietary fiber, it will laxative and nutritionally balanced.

Of course, dishes do not only have such simple functions. It is said that the more complex and delicious the dishes, the stronger the functional effects.

There is no shortage of dishes that have the ability to change spiritual roots, break through realms, enhance understanding, and even the life and death of people, meat and bones.

It is said that the recipes of dishes, like the inheritance of immortality, are in the hands of powerful families and are rarely seen by ordinary people.

Not to mention Wang Papi, the landlord in the village, Liu Huanpi, the big landlord in the town, only eats four simple dishes and one soup every day.

In fact, there are many home-cooked dishes that ordinary people can figure out even without recipes, such as tomato scrambled eggs and other simple stir-fries.

However, the dishes made by ordinary people can only be said to have the form but not the spirit.

Not to mention whether the ingredients can be gathered, it is difficult to match all kinds of seasonings, such as "cooking wine", "soy sauce", "scallion, ginger, garlic", "salt, sugar, starch", etc., which are all monopolized by the aristocratic families and are secret seasonings.

Not to mention, to make dishes, you need a magic iron pot and "Samadhi True Fire", which is not burned with ordinary firewood, but wild spiritual wood and plants.

The conditions and difficulty of making dishes are only barely enjoyed by the landlord class.

Lin Zhi opened a page of the recipe and saw a picture on it and a detailed introduction below. These are all the results derived from the Hall of Knowledge.

[Cold preserved egg]

Cut the preserved egg and put it in a plate. Chop ginger, garlic and red pepper, stir-fry and add vinegar juice, and pour it into the preserved egg plate.

Although it is a very simple dish, Lin Zhi prepared it for a full ten days before.

He dug out dozens of orange "mud balls" from the straw pile in the yard, then peeled off the mud shell to reveal the eggs.

This is the preserved egg he made using plant ash and sawdust.

Due to the high temperature, the preserved egg was made in just 10 days.

After peeling the eggshell, he washed it with well water, then cut it and put it on a plate.

There was a small vegetable plot in the yard, where onions and red peppers were planted.

In less than half an hour, a plate of cold preserved eggs was made.

Through the spiritual vision of the monk, the surface of this plate of preserved eggs exuded a green light.

Lin Zhi knew that this plate of cold preserved eggs was completed. As for the specific effect of eating it, you have to eat it to know.

Picking up the chopsticks, Lin Zhi picked up a slice of preserved egg and put it into his mouth.

It was slightly cool and bounced when he entered, and then a sour and spicy taste burst in his mouth. The sour and spicy opened the way, and he chewed it gently with his teeth, and the unique fragrance of preserved eggs immediately filled his taste buds.

Before he swallowed it, he felt a refreshing feeling all over his body, and a light feeling made him feel like he was falling into the clouds.

It seemed that there was a wonderful music chorus around him, and he seemed to be flying in the sky.

"This preserved egg is so delicious!"

Lin Zhi then ate all the rest. When he finished a plate of preserved eggs, he suddenly felt something in his heart, and hurriedly sat cross-legged and picked up a bowl of rice.

While eating rice, he silently practiced the "Nine Embryos Fairy Classic" in his mind, and then he suddenly found that he seemed to be much smoother than before.

The body's digestion speed of spiritual rice seems to have increased!

If the speed of digesting spiritual energy was one grain of spiritual rice per minute before, now the speed has reached 2 grains of spiritual rice per minute.

"Sure enough, the dishes are very helpful for the digestion of spiritual rice! But this is only the most basic effect of the dishes. The more peculiar effects can only be discovered by groping."

Lin Zhi continued to feel the changes in his body, and then he made a new discovery.
