Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Dawn light faintly brightened.

A pale fish-belly white appeared in the east.

The noisy insect croaks and frog calls of the night receded like a tide.

With a "squeak," the door of the wooden house behind the Spirit Field was pulled open.

Xu Zhangqing carried the Green Wood Water-Dividing Hoe on his right shoulder and walked out step by step.

Wangwang shrank inside the warm dog kennel; hearing the noise, he tilted his head.

Seeing it was Master, he immediately crawled out of the dog kennel.

Wagging his tail with all his might.

Stretching lazily while drumming his pupa.

Then he followed behind Xu Zhangqing with pitter-patter steps, his smile quite fawning.

As for the guinea fowl, it was still huddled in the chicken coop sleeping soundly.

Since laying two chicken eggs, its sleep time grew longer and longer.

Xu Zhangqing saw this in his eyes and said in surprise, "Wangwang is still growing because he hasn't reached adulthood, but why has this chicken also grown larger?"

Compared to when it first arrived, its current body size has swollen by at least double.

A very large lump.

If it didn't poke its head out, it would simply look like a football.

Though doubtful in his heart, Xu Zhangqing did not delay his daily work.

He took off his shoes, carried the Green Wood Water-Dividing Hoe in his right hand, and walked down from the Spirit Field.

Wherever water needed dividing, he immediately used the hoe to dig a channel.

And where long weeds grew, he pulled them out cleanly with a wave of his hand.

After all, he had been farming for three consecutive years.

Therefore, in terms of experience and skill, he became increasingly proficient.

Once the first step was settled.

He began today's second step.

Xu Zhangqing put away the Green Wood Water-Dividing Hoe, then summoned the Companion Green Lotus.

Aiming at the middle of the Second Grade Spirit Field, he lightly tossed it.

It flew over with a "whoosh" and landed steadily.

As the Wood Spirit Power in his Qi Sea began to be consumed.

Instantly, a cool breath spread and permeated with the expansion of the Green Lotus Domain.

Xu Zhangqing stood within it, feeling a refreshing comfort as if he had just finished bathing.

The Lingti in the Spirit Field, namely the spirit rice and vegetables.

All burst with vitality, and even their colors deepened.

Xu Zhangqing narrowed his eyes and observed the current state of the Spirit Field.

At the current pace, the second harvest could be conducted in at most ten days.

You must know, previously the harvest stage was at the end of every quarter.

But now, with the help of the Green Lotus Domain, it had already been advanced by half a month.

At first glance, half a month seemed like nothing.

But if calculated over all four seasons of a year, with every quarter advanced by half a month.

Then a year could gain two extra months, equivalent to an additional harvest.

Moreover, this fifth time required no submission of any proceeds.

All belonged to himself.

Next, Xu Zhangqing operated the Full Level 【Dotting Green Finger】.

Starting from the left, he "dotted green" on the spirit rice before him one by one.

Although the chance of mutation for each stalk was only one in a thousand.

But once successful, he could obtain unimaginable gains.

Even if it failed, it was merely a loss of a trace of weak Spiritual Power.

It could be said to be a sure profit with no loss, far better than selling spirit rice.

【Dotting Green Failure】

【Dotting Green Failure】

【Dotting Green Failure】

……

With one attempt after another, not a single stalk mutated.

However, Xu Zhangqing was neither discouraged nor disappointed.

These days he had been failing continuously, not even succeeding with vegetables.

Therefore, he had long been accustomed to this result.

Next came the vegetables.

Chinese cabbage and watermelon were planted in summer.

The result was no exception — still "Failure".

In the end, only a patch of four-leaf clover beside the water channel remained.

The vast majority were three-leaf.

A minority were four-leaf.

Not a single one-leaf or two-leaf existed.

Both spirit rice and vegetables had mutated.

It seemed only the four-leaf clover had not.

Xu Zhangqing crouched down and began pointing at them one by one.

The four-leaf clover itself was not tall, almost clinging to the water-soaked mud.

A slight touch, even without force, made it tremble uncontrollably.

One stalk, two stalks... until the fortieth stalk.

Suddenly a *ding* sound rang out.

Xu Zhangqing was stunned, then lowered his head to look.

He saw that beneath his foot, a four-leaf clover he had just poked with his finger, was visibly changing.

First was its body type — originally small and very cute.

Now it kept swelling up.

Especially the four leaves, growing even fatter and larger.

Its overall color had already shifted from light green to dark green.

At a glance, it had a kind of tree leaf's heaviness.

Xu Zhangqing mused: "If I remember correctly, the *Spirit Field Hundred Records* recorded that if four-leaf clover mutates, there is a high probability it becomes *Big Leaf Grass*."

There are two main uses.

One is to provide as food for thousand-year spirit beasts.

The other is to refine flying magic tools.

When four-leaf clover mutates into *Big Leaf Grass*, it will contain a trace of wind spiritual energy.

One leaf can refine it; the current market price is 66 low-grade spirit stones.

If four leaves are refined together, the flying height will be higher and the speed faster.

The market price is roughly 3 to 5 middle-grade spirit stones.

It belongs to the valuable-but-not-that-much kind.

Xu Zhangqing couldn't help saying: "Several months have passed, and it finally mutated once."

However, he had no thought of selling it.

His own high-grade flying paper crane was damaged last time in the Flower Sea.

Flying speed, distance, and safety aspects were all weakened to a certain degree.

And the *Demon Wood Water-Avoidance Boat* is too high-profile, not matching his low-profile style.

Using this *Big Leaf Grass* as a travel tool seems like a pretty good choice.

Generally speaking, apprentices are not qualified to forge for others.

Asking the Luo Family siblings probably won't work; it must be a Blacksmith from Zhuqi Peak.

Xu Zhangqing thought for a moment, not rushing to find someone to custom-make a *Big Leaf Grass Flying Tool*.

Anyway, it's not urgent; we'll talk after summer passes.

Afterward, he continued pointing at the remaining four-leaf clover.

Unexpectedly, right at the last stalk.

Another *ding* sounded.

Good fellow, good things actually come in pairs.

The last four-leaf clover also mutated.

Pity — same as the first mutated four-leaf clover, the evolution direction was also *Big Leaf Grass*.

Xu Zhangqing was thoughtful: "With an extra stalk..."

Just then, a vibration came from his storage bag.

Obviously someone wanted to communicate.

Xu Zhangqing took out a look from his small storage bag and found it a bit unfamiliar.

The communication talismans of Li Sancai, Bai Ling'er, Hu Bugui and these few.

He placed them all in the most eye-catching positions, easy to remember who was who.

But this communication talisman was actually in the junk pile.

One look showed it hadn't been used in a long time.

"Who?"

"May I ask if you are Dao Friend Cai?"

"You're looking for... right, it's me!"

"I'm Sun Rong from the Loose Cultivator Market!"

"So it's Family Head Sun, what business?"

"Dao Friend Cai, it seems you haven't come to the Loose Cultivator Market for several months, right?"

"How so? Five hundred jin of second-grade Spirit Rice all eaten up?"

"Not exactly, it's just that we haven't seen each other in a long time, missed you a bit... hehe!"

"Fine, I'll make a trip to the Loose Cultivator Market in a few days."

"For real?"

"For real!"

The other side, Dongqing City.

Loose Cultivator Market, Sun Family.

At this moment, two people stood in a spacious cultivation chamber.

One of them was Sun Rong, who had just put down the Communication Talisman.

The other was very young, his appearance quite similar to Sun Rong's.

Seeing this, the young man hurried to ask: "Father... how did it go?"

Sun Rong gave a slight smile: "Peng'er, that Dao Friend Cai will come to the Loose Cultivator Market in a few days, the matter of you proposing marriage with second-grade Spirit Rice can finally be put on the agenda!!!"
