Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
Xu Zhangqing stood on the Spirit Field Ridge, guiding his Second Disciple's posture hand in hand: "Half-squat, bend your knees, center of gravity forward, otherwise your waist will ache in a while!"
Lin Feng was still small of stature, his hands gripping the sickle trembling slightly.
He tried several times; either the rice stalks were cut crooked and twisted, or a single swing of the sickle brought up a large chunk of mud.
Xu Zhangqing did not rush to urge him, instead stepping forward to demonstrate personally: "Look, the right hand holding the handle must leave half a finger's gap, don't grip it too tight.
The left hand hooks the rice stalk from the opposite side, then cut diagonally at a distance of one finger from the ground.
This way the rice stubble is even, and it won't get mud on it."
Lin Feng stared at his Master's movements, silently reciting the key points over and over in his heart.
Once he had memorized them, he took the sickle and began harvesting again according to the steps.
This time it finally went a bit smoother, but after cutting no more than ten stalks, his arms began to ache, and sweat on his forehead dripped down his cheeks.
Dripping into the field, splashing tiny droplets.
Yet he did not stop, instead tightening his grip on the handle, wanting to cut more.
First, his Master was watching right beside him; he had to save face.
Second, whether Mother or Father, both had warned him repeatedly: absolutely do not make Master angry.
Xu Zhangqing saw this in his eyes and smiled lightly: "No rush, rest a while before cutting again.
You currently have a mortal body; forcing it risks muscle strain."
Finished speaking, he fished a piece of Sugar from his pocket and stuffed it into the other's hand.
Lin Feng froze for a moment, feeling surprised and unexpected at this.
Even more unexpected was that Xu Zhangqing fished out another, unwrapped it and tossed it into his own mouth: "Take it slow; this one mu of Second Grade Spirit Field counts as your assessment task for this year."
Lin Feng gave an "Mm," then stuffed the candy into his mouth as well.
Sweetness dissolved in his mouth, and his whole person relaxed considerably.
After resting for half a cup of tea's time, he plunged back into the Spirit Field.
This time his movements were much more proficient; although the speed was still slow, the cut rice stalks were neat and even, no longer getting mud on them.
"Left hand lift a bit higher!"
"Don't shift your center of gravity backward!"
"Watch your footing, don't slip!"
Xu Zhangqing stood watching at the side, occasionally calling out reminders.
Time came to the Afternoon; Lin Feng finally cut a small bundle, then lifted it with effort and shouted excitedly: "Master, I succeeded!"
At this moment, though his face was smeared with a bit of mud, his eyes were very bright.
Xu Zhangqing smiled and nodded: "Not bad, much better than before."
Although after becoming a Xiuxian Zhe, harvesting does not require tools like sickles.
But as a Spirit Farmer, this kind of basic Skill must be learned.
Only by experiencing hardship can one know how hard-won "Grain" truly is.
After a while, Lin An returned.
Lin Feng pointed at the cut Spirit Rice on the ground and said excitedly: "Father, quick look!"
Lin An stepped forward, glanced twice, and laughed dryly: "Not bad, pretty good!"
Actually, he had not planted, cultivated, or harvested for many years.
His understanding of the Lingti aspect still remained at several years ago.
Xu Zhangqing saw through the other's guilt at a glance and immediately beckoned: "You came at just the right time; tell me about the Sun Family's situation."
Lin An breathed a sigh of relief and immediately distanced himself from the Spirit Field and Spirit Rice: "The cooperation between the Sun Family and us has always been good, and there has been no further overstepping behavior."
Although the cooperation with the Sun Family does not earn many Spirit Stones.
However, over these years, for the sake of sentiment, Xu Zhangqing has never interrupted it.
Fortunately, Sun Peng and the others are very obedient, staying honest and law-abiding in Dongqing City.
Xu Zhangqing nodded slightly, then instructed: "Alright, in the coming years you help me keep an eye on Sun Shangxiang, see what this child's Personality is like."
There is a saying called teaching according to aptitude.
Sun Shangxiang has a special constitution; her Personality may differ from others.
Therefore we must understand step by step, and finally determine how to educate her.
Lin An immediately patted his chest and guaranteed: "No problem!"
The next day, he returned alone to Dongqing City.
……
……
In the following days, everything passed in tranquility.
Xu Zhangqing did not rush to have Lin Feng Cultivate, but planned to Exercise him for a few years, waiting until he thoroughly mastered the basic Skills and Knowledge related to farming, then enter the next Cultivation Stage.
The little Fellow was also very obedient, working very hard in private.
Arranged matters were absolutely never delayed, and he even dared not Fail.
As for Xu Zhangqing, although he is not the He Zhu, he can use the Token.
Therefore, utilizing its ability, it attracted the two types of Spiritual Energy, Wood and Water, from heaven and earth, causing them to gather in Hongfeng Valley one after another.
As a result, Ruo Qunshuang no longer needed to run to the Rain Water Pavilion.
Although Lin Feng cannot Cultivate for the time being, soaking for a long time in a place rich in Spiritual Energy is of immense Benefit to both his body and Spiritual Root.
In a flash, four years passed just like that.
Several things occurred during this period.
One, the Central Region trended toward Stability.
Two, Li Lingbi supported the "Foolish Prince" to ascend the throne smoothly.
Three, waves rose again in the Canglan Sea Region; it is said an Evil Cultivator appeared.
Four, Mu Ji entered the final stage of Breakthrough and no longer contacted Outside affairs.
Five, Zhu Fuxian thoroughly retreated behind the scenes, and his person grew increasingly aged and haggard.
The current Xu Zhangqing is still not the Host, but he has already handled all matters at the Spirit Field Core together with Hua Lao.
He even began Resource docking.
This aroused the Dissatisfaction of many Cultivation clans and forces inside the Spirit Field.
Many People had quite a few critical remarks about this.
Strangely, the higher-ups not only did not send anyone to intervene, but instead tacitly permitted this behavior.
In the end, the Rong Family and Zhang Family were the first to step forward and declare their stance, all strongly supporting Xu Zhangqing.
Wang Han and the others Outside, every year on the pretext of delivering Account Books, conducted Supply.
The Milk Wine Business, limited by output and other reasons, neither improved nor worsened.
Lin Feng also grew from six years old to ten years old, his height increasing considerably.
Linglong remained the same as always, with no excessive change throughout.
Although Ruo Qunshuang looked much the same as before, her whole person became increasingly full of charm.
If one must say who changed the most, it would have to be the Demon God Chi Ye.
The current it has fattened by at least three rounds compared to when Xu Zhangqing first picked it up.
Previously not Palm-sized, it looked extremely thin and weak; now it is even a bit "bloated".
At this moment, Chi Ye lay on the Corridor, its right Claw propping up its plump cheeks, unable to help but Sigh secretly: "Sigh~
When will these days ever end!"
Originally Thought that in no more than a few years it could suck dry Xu Zhangqing's Lifespan, and then switch to the next "Host", that is, the Bound person.
As a result, Unexpectedly, it stubbornly didn't even get a chance to make Contact.
Most of the time, it was either drunk on Milk Wine, or held in Xu Linglong's arms, and then used as a Warm Hand Treasure.
Initially it resisted strongly, but later it gradually became a bit... Enjoyment.
At this time, "tap tap" Footsteps came from the other side of the Corridor.
Chi Ye turned its head to look, and Discovered it was Xu Zhangqing bringing Lin Feng walking over.
Seeing this Scene, it "arduously" climbed up, then pinched its throat to let out an extremely sycophantic cry: "Meow~ Meow~"
Xu Zhangqing Glanced at it, then Shook his head: "Feng'er, when you have time tell Linglong not to feed this cat everything.
It used to be so slender, now it's turned into a pig!"
