At first, Lin Jiang didn't take Lin Ying's words seriously, thinking that two sand sculptures couldn't eat much. But he didn't expect that after a year, when the two sand sculptures began to change their feathers, their appetite increased sharply. An Aurora Falcon could eat four or five pounds of dried meat a day, which was more than Lin Jiang.

And if they couldn't be fed enough, they would go to the fish pond to catch fish. A silver fish was worth fifteen spirit beads, and a silver arrowfish was thirty spirit beads. If you don't pay attention, they can take away several fish. Lin Jiang was so distressed that he caught them and beat them. After

being beaten many times, they knew that they couldn't catch fish in the fish pond, so they went to harm the poultry of the servants in the villa, chickens, ducks, geese, rabbits, etc., and they were killed. Lin Jiang was fair and had to compensate the servants.

After a year and a half, the Aurora Falcons grew new feathers, and they also learned to fly. The characteristics of birds of prey were fully exposed, and they could even kill goats in the villa. Lin Jiang could no longer afford to keep them, so he could only spend a lot of effort to teach them to hunt and harm wild animals in the mountains.

"Old Six, these two Aurora Falcons have become monsters. They should be of the lower grade of the first rank, equivalent to the cultivators in the early stage of Qi training. If Old Six trains well, they can help you fight in the future."

When Lin Die and Lin Ying came to Lingtao Villa again, Lin Die looked at the Aurora Falcons flying in the sky and said. She didn't expect Lin Jiang to be so patient and really raised the Aurora Falcons.

"I hope so, but they are too greedy. An Aurora Falcon can eat about ten kilograms of fresh meat a day. If I have to raise them completely, I really can't afford it. They can eat an iron-backed pig in seven or eight days, which is not enough for them to eat."

"Hehe, brother, now you know that if you don't listen to the old people, you will suffer the consequences."

Lin Ying pinched her waist and said with an air of oldness. I told my brother a long time ago, but my brother didn't listen. Who can I blame?

"So now I train them to hunt by themselves, the pressure is not bad, besides, I am not poor now, I opened up 50 mu of spiritual fields this year, and I am going to bring people to grow medicinal herbs."

Lin Jiang curled his lips, he did not regret it, although the two guys were big eaters, but they did bring him a lot of joy in the past two years, and brought a lot of excitement to his boring life.

"Your villa is full of mortals, can you grow spiritual medicine?"

"Yes, I asked the clan's offerings, and I don't grow those high-level spiritual medicines, I only grow the first-level low-quality yellow bud grass, which is harvested once a year. After planting well, one mu of land can earn almost three spiritual stones."

Lin Jiang said, he has a lot of spiritual fields, Lingtao Villa is very large, and the area within a radius of 30 miles is his territory. According to the clan's offerings, with the spiritual veins of Lingtao Villa, it is okay to open up another 2,000 mu of spiritual fields.

However, Lin Jiang does not have so many people, and 30 mu of spiritual fields is the current limit of the villa's manpower. If there are more, he will have to squeeze the servants crazily, and Lin Jiang is not so cruel.

The first-grade inferior yellow bud grass is one of the main materials of the Qi Gathering Pill. There is no worry about sales. Apart from the seeds, Lin Jiang does not spend money on other things. The income of three spirit stones per mu of land is still conservative.

"The family's Huang Gongfeng is a first-grade superior spirit plant husband. You should ask him for advice. If you can grow it, your income can increase a lot. The higher the cultivation level, the more the cultivation consumes, and the more spirit stones the better."

"I know this."

Lin Jiang nodded. Now his annual income is just over 500 spirit stones, but his expenses are actually very small. He basically doesn't spend money on food, clothing, housing and transportation. The only thing he spends money on is buying Qi Gathering Pills.

However, Lin Jiang is too lazy. He practices for two and a half hours every day. It takes three days to refine a Qi Gathering Pill, and then he has to clean the impurities of the pill in his body every three days. That is, he only needs five pills a month. One Qi Gathering Pill is only two spirit stones. He only needs to consume about a hundred spirit stones a year, and he can still save money.

"When you reach the middle stage of Qi training, you can buy some Peiyuan Pills to take, to strengthen your foundation and nourish your essence. With the Qi Jue Pill, the effect will be much better. Your cultivation speed is too slow."

Lin Die thought for a while and said again. The 38-year-old Lin Jiang has only practiced Qi at the third level, the slowest in the Lin family. Lao Jiu also has five spiritual roots and is three years younger than Lin Jiang, but has already practiced Qi at the fifth level.

"Third sister, the first thing a person needs to do when he is alive is to be happy. If practicing makes me unhappy, then what is the point of practicing, right?"

"You are protected too well by your family,"

Lin Die said. The first element of Lin Jiang's life is happiness, but she is not. She is now the same as Lin Batian. The first element is to ensure the safety of the Lin family, make the Lin family prosperous and strong, and pass it on forever.

"If it is beneficial to the country, life and death, the family inheritance is our responsibility."

This sentence flashed through Lin Jiang's mind, but he didn't say it out loud, and quickly changed the subject. Every time he talked about practicing, Lin Die always had an attitude of hating him for not fighting, and Lin Jiang didn't really like it.

He knew that Lin Die was doing this for his own good, but Lin Jiang had his own plans. His talent for cultivation was very poor, so he should make long-term plans. There is a saying that haste makes waste. If he is too eager and rushes into things, he will become disgusted with cultivation. He doesn't know if he can speed up his cultivation, but he will definitely go astray.

Lin Jiang likes this kind of life now. There is no pressure. He cultivates, grows crops, feeds birds, etc. every day. He is leisurely and contented. There is no risk of going astray. Elder

Huang

is a spiritual plant husband specially invited by Lin Batian. Although he is not good at cultivation, he is skilled. The many techniques of immortal cultivators are headed by the four arts of cultivation, namely, Dan Fu Qi Zhen, but the techniques in them should not be underestimated. Taming beasts and spiritual plants are also an indispensable part of cultivation.

At first, the spiritual medicines needed for alchemy were collected from the wild outside. However, the output of spiritual medicines in the wild was extremely low, and soon it was not enough for the cultivators. Therefore, the industry of spiritual plant husbands was born, specializing in cultivating spiritual medicines and all spiritual plants needed for cultivation.

A skilled spiritual plant husband would not be worse than an alchemist of the same level, and even because of the scarcity of numbers, his status would be higher.

Lin Jiang wanted to grow spiritual medicines in Lingtao Villa, so he needed a spiritual plant husband to help. For this reason, Lin Jiang specially returned to the Linjiang Mountain Gate and followed Elder Huang to learn the skills of spiritual plant husbands.

Lin Jiang was a person who respected knowledge and technology. Even though Elder Huang had promised to teach him everything he knew, Lin Jiang also made enough gestures, greeting him every morning, bringing lunch at noon, and treating guests at night, serving good wine and meat, and trying his best to win him over.

This attitude touched Elder Huang, who not only taught him knowledge wholeheartedly, but also came to Lingtao Villa to personally help train those servants and teach them how to grow yellow bud grass.

After more than half a year of tossing and turning, Lin Jiang finally learned how to grow yellow bud grass. A year later, when Lin Jiang was 40 years old, Lin Jiang finally harvested the first batch of yellow bud grass. This year, the income of Lingtao Villa exceeded 700 spiritual stones, which made Lin Jiang very happy.

There was more happy events. When Lin Jiang was 41 years old, he finally broke through the fourth level of Qi training and reached the level of the middle stage of Qi training. The reason why he was able to do so quickly was that since Lin Jiang went to Anhua City a few years ago, he had been dragging people to buy high-quality Qi-gathering pills in Anhua City. The price was more expensive, but the effect was also better. Lin Jiang didn't lack this little money, so he always used the pills in Anhua City.

The fourth level of Qi training is a very important symbol in the world of immortal cultivation. When you reach this level of cultivation, your spiritual power can allow immortal cultivators to fly with swords, and also allow immortal cultivators to cast spells, and fight and kill enemies without mortal skills.

Lin Jiang spent a month to practice the sword-controlling technique until he was proficient, and then he took the flying sword to the gate of Linjiang Mountain. It took only more than two hours to cover a distance of 800 miles.

"Big sand sculpture on the left, small sand sculpture on the right, flying sword under the feet, so cool"

The big and small sand sculptures accompanied Lin Jiang and came to the gate of the Lin family at lightning speed.

Lin Jiang could no longer do the stupid thing of showing off his cultivation in front of Lin Batian. Anyway, his reputation as the shame of the Lin family has long been known. He came just to see his cheap mother.

His cheap mother Zhuang Rong is nearly sixty years old. Her cultivation has been stuck at the ninth level of Qi training for many years. She herself does not have much motivation to practice. Anyway, it is like that.

In recent years, she has been keen on finding a Taoist partner for Lin Jiang. Either the women worshipped by the Lin family or the female cultivators of several families of the Lin family, and has been on blind dates more than ten times.

But every time, Lin Jiang can ruin it. Anyway, it is difficult to make a blind date successful, but it is easy to ruin it. Creating a steel straight man's personality and persona can scare away most women.

In this world, Lin Jiang didn't want to get married at all, because he couldn't guarantee that his Taoist partner and his children would be with him forever. If he invested in the relationship, he would eventually have to see his Taoist partner and his children die of old age in front of him. Lin Jiang felt that this was the cruelest thing in the world, so he simply gave up.

As for physical needs, that was easy to solve. There were countless servants in the manor who wanted to send their daughters to Lin Jiang's bed, but Lin Jiang didn't care about them. It was easy to spend some money to have a one-hour romance with a strange female cultivator occasionally.

"Mom, I'm here to see you."

Lin Jiang came to Zhuang Rong's yard and sat in front of Zhuang Rong carelessly. After so many years, Zhuang Rong lost some of her coquettish temperament and became dignified and luxurious, with the temperament of a noble lady.

But her face didn't age at all. Not to mention her careful maintenance on weekdays, she also spent a lot of money to buy Dingyan Dan to keep her face in her thirties.

"Why are you sweating so much, kid? Come and wipe your sweat."

"Mom, I'm 41, not a child anymore."

"41 is still a child in my mother's eyes."

"Mom, I came here today to discuss something with you. Let's live in the villa in the future. I will be filial to you in the future."

"This..."

"Mom is not competing with the world now. Lin Ying often retreats, or goes on missions for the Lin family. I can't see her for ten days or half a month. How bored is it here? In Lingtao Villa, I can accompany you every day in the future."

Lin Jiang said sincerely. Zhuang Rong had stopped playing palace fighting a long time ago, because she couldn't beat him at all. Lin Batian's harem had a wife in the foundation-building period in front and a young and beautiful concubine in the back. How could she be a match?

In the past, Lin Ying accompanied her, but in recent years, Lin Ying has become busier and busier. As one of the few foundation-building cultivators in the Lin family, she has undertaken important tasks, either retreating to practice or going out on missions. She rarely even went to Lingtao Villa. Zhuang Rong was inevitably lonely.

Moreover, Lin Jiang also really wanted to be filial to Zhuang Rong. He was not a heartless man. He was very clear about how good Zhuang Rong was to him. On the contrary, he only saw his cheap father about once a year and they had no feelings at all. So he wanted to take Zhuang Rong to Lingtao Villa to spend her remaining years in retirement.
