Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Xu Zhangqing returned home in the dark.

The little yellow dog immediately wagged its tail excitedly.

"Starving, huh?" Xu Zhangqing squatted down and touched the dog's head.

"Woof woof!" I don't know if it was responding.

"Don't rush, I'll get you food right away." Xu Zhangqing got up and walked toward the kitchen.

This harvest was pretty good.

Points +250.

Low-grade Spirit Stones +62.

Lifespan broke 【200 years】.

The only pity was that Zhang Su's side could no longer be visited.

But even if he was dissatisfied with Zhang Er to any degree, Xu Zhangqing was still not in a hurry.

Before he had absolute certainty, he would not make a move.

At least, he would have to wait until his own cultivation realm reached Foundation Establishment before speaking of it.

If possible, it would be best to get another spell.

Movement technique would be best.

Defense second.

Attack types didn't matter, after all he had High-rank Wood Spirit Entangling Art (Third Layer).

Not long after, dinner was ready.

One person and one dog ate happily.

After eating and drinking their fill, Xu Zhangqing neatly washed the dishes.

Then he took a hot bath.

Everything settled, only then did he climb into bed.

The little yellow dog proficiently lay under the bed.

Lying on his side, Xu Zhangqing's gaze through the open wooden window watched the star-dotted night sky.

Although this world had no mobile phones, computers, or such, appearing dull and boring.

But to be honest, the scenery was quite good, and countless stars could be seen at night.

The night breeze gently blew in, and the atmosphere inside the house grew increasingly quiet.

Not long after, Xu Zhangqing fell asleep.

……

One night passed without a word, time came to the next day.

Because the spirit rice had already been harvested.

So the wood spirit qi content in the spirit fields was extremely thin.

Therefore, Xu Zhangqing did not cultivate as usual.

Bored with nothing to do, he took his home as the center and began exploring around.

Speaking of which, he had been here nearly a year, but didn't know much about the surroundings.

"If I remember correctly, there's an abandoned mountain cave nearby?" Xu Zhangqing stood on high ground, his gaze sweeping the surroundings.

Soon he saw on the other side of the spirit fields, a small mountain a few hundred meters away.

Not very high, at most a few dozen meters or so.

From top to bottom it was all stone, looking completely bare.

"Go!" Xu Zhangqing called out, bringing the little yellow dog as he walked over.

Not long after, one person and one dog arrived.

First he climbed up, to get a high view.

To be honest, this was just a stone mountain.

All piled together with large and small stones, nothing special.

Fortunately, the air on the mountain top was good, and he could see farther places.

Xu Zhangqing stood on the highest stone, his gaze looking into the distance.

He suddenly discovered in surprise.

In a very distant place, there seemed to be spirit fields.

And inside grew many spirit plants.

You have to know, spring ending meant the first quarter planting ended.

The vast majority of spirit plants would be harvested, then wait for the start of summer.

If not harvested, there were only two possibilities.

One was that the managing spirit farmer forgot.

The other was that the growth cycle was longer.

Forgetting probably wasn't very likely.

The only remaining possibility was that the growth cycle was longer.

If that were true, it meant the spirit farmers in the distance were at least at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

If they hadn't reached a certain cultivation realm.

Or if arts like Chang Qing Jue and Cultivation Technique were of a higher grade.

The best choice was actually only spirit rice.

"Living even more remotely than me, this person is quite interesting." Xu Zhangqing thought thoughtfully.

"Senior Brother Xu, are you there?" At that moment, someone called out from behind the house.

"Woof woof!" The little yellow dog immediately started barking.

"Someone's calling you, why are you responding?" Xu Zhangqing rolled his eyes.

"Senior Brother Xu~~~" The person opposite kept calling out incessantly.

"Let's go back." Xu Zhangqing had originally planned to take a look at the mountain cave below, but since someone had come looking for him, he could only temporarily give up that idea.

Afterwards, he brought the little yellow dog and returned along the same path.

When the distance drew near.

He discovered the person arriving was Han Su.

Namely, the Earth Spirit Root Disciple who helped with Earth Loosening.

"Han Shidi." Xu Zhangqing smiled slightly.

"Senior Brother, you're in high spirits, actually climbing the mountain." Han Su, seeing someone appear, let down the worry in his heart.

Xu Zhangqing laughed as he took out the spirit rice from the Small Storage Bag, then said: "You came just in time, this is the fifty jin of Second-grade Spirit Rice I promised last time."

There had been an agreement between the two.

Every time Earth Loosening was completed, a remuneration would be received at the end of the quarter.

If it were someone else, especially a Formal Disciple with an Earth Spirit Root.

Without over a hundred jin of Second-grade Spirit Rice, they absolutely would not help.

But who made the other party's price cheap, and besides, the two had met in the Outer Perimeter.

"It's actually Top-grade Spirit Rice?"

Feeling the rich Spiritual Energy in the spirit rice, Han Su stared wide-eyed, took it over quite excitedly, his voice trembling slightly: "Senior Brother Xu!!!"

Fifty jin of Second-grade Spirit Rice seemed not much.

But if converted to First-grade Spirit Rice, that would be two hundred jin.

One person eating it could last half a year without any problem.

Crucially, this was Top-grade Spirit Rice with the highest Spiritual Energy Concentration.

Its value was even more astonishing.

The exchange ratio was also higher.

Xu Zhangqing then asked: "How is Lin An?"

Han Su's smile froze, shaking his head: "He was taken away by the Criminal Punishment Department because he didn't complete the contract, and I don't know if he can come back."

"Taken away?" Xu Zhangqing was quite shocked.

Han Su hurriedly explained: "I have Senior Brother Xu helping me, so I'm not in a hurry, but that female Disciple with a Water Spirit Root is relentless, even reporting to the Criminal Punishment Department."

Xu Zhangqing frowned: "If it weren't for the Formal Disciple Grand Competition, Lin Dao Friend probably wouldn't have this happen, what a pity."

But that female Disciple with a Water Spirit Root did nothing wrong.

Regarding one's own interests, one must strive for them.

You must know, Lin An didn't owe just one or two hundred jin, but several hundred jin.

Especially the cooperation method with that female Disciple with a Water Spirit Root was that she took forty percent.

Han Su said helplessly about this: "I don't even know whether I should hold him accountable."

Xu Zhangqing nodded: "Of course you should hold him accountable, this is your right."

"But..." Han Su looked at the person before him, wanting to speak but stopping.

How could Xu Zhangqing not understand, he immediately waved his hand: "Although my relationship with Lin An is not bad, it hasn't reached a particularly good level."

In fact, my relationship with Lin An improving started from Zhang Su.

And when in the Outer Perimeter, basically there was no interaction.

What's more, this matter itself was the other party's fault.

Han Su wanted exactly these words, so he no longer dwelled on it.

Planning to hold Lin An accountable after returning, thereby obtaining compensation.

Xu Zhangqing suddenly thought of Hongfeng Valley Market, so he asked again: "How is the market situation now?"

During the New Year period.

The ratio for First-grade Spirit Rice was 1:7.

The ratio for Second-grade Spirit Rice was 1:1.5.

Han Su replied: "The price of Second-grade Spirit Rice tends toward stability, still at 1:1.5, although it occasionally falls to 1.4, but it rises back within a few days."

"And the ratio for First-grade Spirit Rice has already become 1:8."

"Of course, the Top-grade Spirit Rice here at Senior Brother's place is different, the ratio is lower, and it's more expensive."

Xu Zhangqing raised an eyebrow after hearing this: "How did it go up again?"

Han Su glanced around, seeing only two people and one dog, then he said in a low voice: "Because the prices inside the Immortal Sect are too high, many people go to the Loose Cultivator markets outside to buy."

Xu Zhangqing immediately said with a playful expression: "It seems the Nongxin Society felt the pressure from outside, so they maintained this ratio."

Han Su deeply agreed: "That's right, the Loose Cultivator market prices are cheaper, I went there once before and bought a lot of spirit rice, that's how I withstood the pressure."

"Wait." Xu Changqing heard this and couldn't help but be surprised: "Since cheaper Spirit Rice can be bought at the Loose Cultivator market Outside, why doesn't Lin An go?"

Han Su twitched his Mouth Corner: "Tried it, just arrived at the Teleportation Array and was caught by people from the Criminal Punishment Department."

Xu Changqing was speechless for a moment.

Han Su glanced at the Spirit Field at the Side, then asked tentatively: "Senior Brother, then I'll come again next time I do Earth Loosening?"

He didn't want to miss the chance of Obtaining Top-grade Spirit Rice, Even if it was only fifty jin.

Xu Changqing instead waved his hand, signaling the other party to come closer.

Han Su was Doubtful and puzzled, but still walked forward.

Xu Changqing took out another fifty jin of Second-grade Spirit Rice from his Small Storage Bag and handed it over, saying seriously: "Help me find techniques suitable for Wood Spirit Root cultivation at the Loose Cultivator market,

movement techniques and Defense are best,

offensive techniques are fine too,

this is a deposit, more refunded less supplemented when the time comes."

"Okay." Although Han Su was doubtful, he didn't hesitate at all, even afraid the other party would go back on their word.

As for why Xu Changqing needed techniques.

Although he was Curious, he didn't Dare to ask.

After All, the more one knows about some things, the worse the ending.

As long as he can stably Obtain Top-grade Spirit Rice, what does it matter if he works like an ox or horse.

And adding the fifty jin of Top-grade Spirit Rice produced from the Second-grade Spirit Field given again, Xu Changqing still had 【2400 jin】 Remaining in his Shou Li!
