Upon waking up, Lin Xiaoman found herself transmigrated, and to a fantastical, vibrant cultivation world at that! Fortunately, she possessed...
Chapter 40 No Chance to Slack Off
It was time to go to the fields to harvest the spiritual rice. This wave of spiritual rice matured quickly, and the harvest was even more abundant than the first season. Lin Xiaoman harvested a total of 650 kilograms of spiritual rice.
After harvesting this wave of spiritual rice, Lin Xiaoman plans to plant cabbage and radishes in the fields.
She discovered that the spiritual rice she carefully cultivated every day using the Spiritual Rain Technique and the Five Elements Technique contained much more spiritual energy than the spiritual rice she bought in the market. If that was the case, would it be the same for the vegetables she carefully cultivated?
In this case, why should she spend her spirit beads to buy vegetables? It would be better for her to grow them herself.
It is delicious and full of spiritual energy. It can also save you some spiritual beads. By the way, you can also cast more spells and practice controlling your spiritual power.
Even when casting a small spell like the Spirit Rain Spell, Lin Xiaoman would try to use as little spiritual power as possible and still achieve the same effect.
This was a habit she developed after she successfully drew the speed talisman on discarded talisman paper.
She found that using this method not only improved her success rate and efficiency in drawing talismans, but also shortened the time it took her to cast spells and increased the number of times she could cast spells.
Although it was only a slight improvement, Lin Xiaoman was already very excited about such a surprising discovery.
After all, she is only at the second level of the Qi Refining Stage now. When she becomes stronger in the future, the difference will be huge.
He did what he said. After collecting the spiritual rice, Lin Xiaoman thought for a while, took out two kilograms of snake meat from the storage bag, and went to Li Xing's house next door.
"Do you have cabbage and radish seeds at home? Can I exchange some?"
Li Xing happened to be at home, cutting radishes and making yellow radish strips with her mother in the yard.
"Yes, yes, I'll get some for you. You don't have to exchange anything."
Li Xing's mother was a gentle-looking woman who looked a little shy. When she saw Lin Xiaoman, she just smiled at her and continued to work with her head down. Li Xing got up and ran into the house to get the seeds.
"Harvest the spiritual grains in your field. I think they will be ripe in the next two days."
Li Xing quickly came out of the house and handed a few packets of seeds to Lin Xiaoman.
"These are radish seeds, these are cabbage seeds, and there are also leeks, onions, and garlic. Oh, and do you want some ginger?"
"Yes, yes, yes. This is the first-level snake monster meat I hunted in the mountains yesterday."
Lin Xiaoman was surprised and quickly took it, nodded with a smile, and then handed over the meat in her hand.
"Oh, no, no, it's such a valuable thing, you should keep it for yourself, it will help you in your cultivation."
Those cabbage seeds are not worth anything at all. How could she get so much monster meat from Lin Xiaoman?
"If you don't want it, I won't take it either. Then I'll have to go to the market to buy it."
Li Xing had no choice but to accept it. For a moment, he felt guilty about the meat he had harvested, so he quickly said, "Then, I'll go help you plant it."
Lin Xiaoman waved his hand and turned to leave with the seeds. "No need. I only have a piece of land. I can plant it quickly."
Although she said so, Li Xing still ran out with the tools and went to work in the fields without waiting for Lin Xiaoman's instructions.
Lin Xiaoman followed her, and together they turned the soil, dug holes and buried the seeds. Then they used the Spirit Rain Technique to water the seeds, and used the Five Elements Technique to make them germinate.
An hour later, the seeds in the ground had sprouted. Some of the fast-growing ones had already produced green shoots. Lin Xiaoman clapped his hands in satisfaction.
"Okay, Li Xing, thank you very much."
"You're welcome."
Li Xing waved goodbye with a smile and went home. Lin Xiaoman also went back to prepare lunch.
At noon, Lin Xiaoman took out some snake meat and fried it, sprinkled it with cumin powder and other seasonings. It was also fragrant and tasted great.
In order to reward himself, Lin Xiaoman also took two eggs and made a bowl of egg custard. When it was cooked, he dripped sesame oil on it, sprinkled with chopped green onions, and added a little soy sauce. Wow, it was delicious.
In addition, she made some garlic-flavored bok choy. The three dishes were placed on the table, along with a bowl of hot rice. Lin Xiaoman felt happy just sitting there and watching.
These days are so comfortable.
Although there were three dishes, Lin Xiaoman was able to finish them all by himself. After all, he had become a cultivator now and his appetite had greatly increased.
Moreover, she didn't cook much of each dish. She even took out two pieces of snake meat and placed them in a separate bowl. After she finished eating and cleaned up, she placed the bowl of remaining snake meat on the table and left.
In the afternoon, she planned to go to the edge of the field to dry the freshly cut straw and bring it back to use as firewood.
These things were very simple with the help of magic, so in less than half an hour, she returned home carrying a pile of dry straw. When she entered the kitchen, she found that the snake meat in the bowl was gone.
Lin Xiaoman: ...
Oh my god, what the hell is that?
Lin Xiaoman sensed around but couldn't find what it was, so he had to give up.
Pour some water into the bowl. After eating the meat, there is no water to drink. Don't choke to death.
Lin Xiaoman went to the yard to practice sword, and an hour later went to the house to draw talismans. She now had plenty of talisman paper and ink, all of which were earned through her own hard work. Drawing a talisman would make her a net profit, so of course she had to draw more talismans.
Lin Xiaoman also had to deliver the talisman that Li Li had ordered, and he had to draw it quickly.
After painting for the whole afternoon, Lin Xiaoman made rhinoceros beef for dinner at night, stir-fried with sour peppers and coriander, and had a mushroom and tofu soup. The dish was so delicious that he drank two bowls of rice and his stomach was full.
This time, she used two bowls, one for mushroom and tofu soup, and the other for spiritual rice and coriander beef, and then went back to the house to practice.
The next morning, Lin Xiaoman went to the kitchen and saw that the beef was not touched at all. The glutinous rice was almost eaten, except for the rice next to the beef. The mushroom and tofu soup was all eaten.
So, this thing is not spicy?
After cooking the porridge and leaving half in the kitchen, Lin Xiaoman set out to work in the market.
After three days of vacation, it’s time to go back to work.
On the first day of work, Lin Xiaoman thought it would be an easy job, but she didn't expect that as soon as she arrived at the shop, she was called over by Senior Yuan, who gave her and Li Ling a bunch of tasks.
Lin Xiaoman is still responsible for the previously scheduled task of producing 500 basic talismans every month, in addition to 200 each of the Vajra Talisman, Water Arrow Talisman, Earth Wall Talisman, Intermediate Speed Talisman and Intermediate Fire Bomb Talisman.
"Now you can draw the Diamond Talisman, Water Arrow Talisman, and Earth Wall Talisman. How about you take 50 quests for each of these three types of talismans? I'll take care of the rest."
Back in the house, Li Ling asked Lin Xiaoman.
After all, Lin Xiaoman still has the task of making another 500 basic talismans.
"I'll also take 50 each of the Intermediate Speed Talisman and the Intermediate Fire Bomb Talisman. Otherwise, the task will be too heavy for you alone. Although I can't draw these two talismans yet, I can learn. If I can't draw them, I'll ask Senior Sister Li for help."
Li Ling breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with a smile. "Okay."
A thick stack of talisman paper was handed to Lin Xiaoman, and Lin Xiaoman quickly took it. Of course, she was willing to take on more talisman tasks so that she could have more talisman paper.
