Chapter 9
“A lucky breakthrough.”
tan san smiled and said.
“Proficient?”
Old Xu then asked.
tan san nodded his head.
Seeing this, Old Xu immediately said with some sourness, “I didn’t expect that you are so talented in the Geng Jin finger, that is, you didn’t break through to the fourth level of the Qi Practicing Stage, and you don’t have Spiritual Awareness, or else none of the Spirit Bugs in this Spirit Field can escape your finger.”
“That’s not entirely true, just one spell of Gengjin Finger can’t get rid of all the spirit worms.”
tan san shook his head.
He had been an apprentice in the Spirit Plant Hall for several years, and it wasn’t as if he hadn’t learned everything, so naturally, he knew clearly that there were millions of spirit bugs in the world, and there were some difficult ones that it was said that even Foundation Establishment True Cultivators couldn’t do anything about them.
This hand of his, the Gengjin Finger, is also suitable for removing the spirit worms attached to the spiritual grain, if it is planting spiritual medicine, or even other more precious spiritual materials, it is far from enough.
“Changwang ah, look at Old Xu me, I’m usually pretty good to you, right?”
Old Xu’s eyes rolled and suddenly said with a smile.
“Generally.”
tan san hastily stopped his words.
He had heard this a lot in his previous life, and if he answered it, there would be countless pits waiting behind him.
Some of them were serial pits that could not be defended against.
“That ……”
Old Xu’s expression stalled and he let out a dry smile, saying to himself, “It’s actually not a big deal.
This is not, the spirit insects in the spirit field, aren’t they getting more and more.
Your three acres of spirit field is good to take care of.
But the old man I this ten acres of spiritual fields, a mu of land to hide a three spirit worms, but there are also thirty it.
How can I cope with them with my old arms and legs?
So, if you’re free, can you help me out?”
“Can’t help.”
tan san did not hesitate at all.
Wanting to let himself work for nothing?
This old clapper was thinking of farts to eat.
“One inferior spirit stone.”
Old Xu clenched his teeth and said with a meaty face.
“One day?”
tan san squinted.
“Ten days.”
Old Xu blurted out.
He thought quite well, after ten days, the spirit rice would be almost ripe for harvesting, and of course there would no longer be a need to get rid of the insects.
“That won’t do.”
tan san simply shook his head.
“Three days.”
Old Xu thought about it and gritted his teeth.
It was true that he was already feeling the strain, ten acres of spirit fields, hiding one or two spirit worms per acre was enough of a headache for him, not to mention that the number of spirit worms would increase after the fruit-hanging period.
Plus from time to time from Xu Zhong spirit field migrated over the spirit worms …… he was a burst of scalp numbness.
Instead of inviting the people from the Spirit Plant Hall to come over, spending three lower grade spirit stones at once and only being able to manage it for a day, it would be better to hand it over to tan san and save a fortune instead.
“The spirit worms killed belong to me.”
tan san then said.
“It can be.”
Old Xu nodded and said with emotion, “Changwang ah, in fact, at the beginning I could tell that you are not an ordinary person, and now it seems that it is not what I expected ……”
“It’s useless to say good words.
The spirit stones have to be given first.
Otherwise, I’m afraid you’ll renege on your debt.” tan san said as he looked at him expressionlessly.
What to see that he wasn’t an ordinary person, he didn’t believe it.
Before crossing over, his original body was ordinary, with a qualification of five elemental spiritual roots, which was considered poor in the Spirit Farmers, and was not at all conspicuous.
On the contrary, this Xu Lao, iron rooster general character, he was really afraid that he finished the work, the other party did not give him the promised spirit stone.
After all, he hadn’t seen what a spirit stone looked like since he was reborn until now.
“Really, can I, Xu Fu Gui, still rely on your spirit stones?”
Old Xu instantly reddened his face and spoke indignantly, hesitating for a moment, he still threw out a slightly crystalline block and said, “It just so happens that I still have three acres of spirit land left with spirit worms that I haven’t gotten rid of yet, so help me deal with it all together.”
Saying that, with a smug smile, as if he had taken advantage of something, he hastily reached out and pointed to the three acres of spirit land not far away.
“No problem.”
tan san didn’t push back, after taking the money, he should work.
What’s more, he had just cleared the spirit worms from his spirit field earlier, yet there was still spiritual energy left in his body, and he was already thinking of killing more spirit worms, so naturally, he didn’t want to waste it.
After all, not only was this Spirit Bug meat delicious, it also contained Spiritual Qi, which could actually enhance his cultivation progress.
And most importantly, more spirit worms could also be exchanged for spirit stones ……
Thinking of Spirit Stones, he couldn’t help but once again eyeball the slightly crystalline lump in his hand.
“Is this a spirit stone?”
tan san compared the shape of the Spirit Stone in his memory, and a trace of satisfaction was immediately born in his heart.
Clearly, this was a spirit stone.
A lower grade spirit stone.
Somewhat like some sort of jade, yet a bit more grayish and monumental, it was rectangular in shape, and was not heavy, only a hundred or so grams, yet just by holding it in his hand, he was still able to feel that the Spirit Stones contained an abundance of Spirit Qi.
He knew that this was a standard piece of lower grade spirit stone.
The standard of measurement, on the other hand, was the weight.
One hundred grams, it was one piece.
Two hundred grams, it was two pieces.
After all, spirit stones were considered consumables in a way.
Cultivators could directly absorb the spiritual qi inside the spirit stone, cultivate, or restore the spiritual energy in their bodies.
And when the spirit qi inside the spirit stone was consumed, it would cause the spirit stone body to naturally shrink and reduce in weight.
Therefore, the outside world will be less than one hundred grams of spirit stone, called broken spirit stone. It can also be used to buy and sell in the marketplace, which is equivalent to change in reality.
Afterwards, he treasured this lower grade spirit stone and put it away, then directly went down to Old Xu’s spirit field and began to carefully explore it.
Traveling lightly, he soon discovered the first Spirit Locust.
Spirit Locust.
He didn’t expect to find the Spirit Locust, a ferocious spirit insect, in his own spirit field, but instead found one in Old Xu’s spirit field.
However, looking at its wings that were as thin as cicada wings, he felt that it was normal.
Spirit Locusts, after all, could fly.
Whose home it flew down to could really only depend on the other party’s preference.
There was no hesitation, he held his breath and stood at a distance of two feet from the Spirit Locust, and then operated his spiritual energy, his mind controlling it and condensing it into a complex runic structure.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths ……
Five breaths passed.
He adjusted the angle of his finger and pointed forward.
Wordlessly, a golden light flashed.
Gengjin Finger +1
That Spirit Locust’s head, which was only the size of a normal person’s thumb, was instantly smashed to pieces, but its entire insect body instinctively tightened at this time, and with those two scythe-like front claws, it slashed with force, and even directly cut out a large opening in the stalk of the Spirit Harvest that it was attached to.
Soon, the upper part of that spirit grain was slightly skewed, drooping down, seemingly to be broken.
This was the most troublesome part of the Spirit Locust.
Even if it died, instinctively, it would still wave its front claws and tear apart all the obstacles in front of it.
Plus the vigilance is also high, the moment there is something wrong, it jumps and flies away …… So no matter which spirit farmer, the spirit insect that he most does not want to see in his spirit field is it. Yay!
