"You can choose any of these houses. There are tools in the house, seeds in the storage bag, and the planting instructions are on your task card."
The square-faced disciple pointed to the wooden house in the distance and said.
Afterwards, he handed out storage bags to everyone and said sternly, "There are three bottles of Qigong Pills and three low-grade spirit stones in the storage bag. Those who complete the task in three months will also receive fifteen low-grade spirit stones. Those who don't complete the task do not need to take the assessment and can leave Lingxiao Sect directly. After all, the sect does not keep useless people."
Several people took the storage bags and promised to complete the task.
"Brother, why are there no spirit stones in my storage bag?"
Ran Changle opened the storage bag and found that there were only seeds and fasting pills inside, but no spirit stones, and then he raised questions.
After hearing what Ran Changle said, the other five people opened their storage bags and took a look. They found that there were no spirit stones in their storage bags either, and they said one after another.
"There are no spirit stones in my storage bag either."
"Me too."
"Brother, what's going on?"
"I don't know about that. Maybe the outer gate's mission building was given to the wrong one."
The square-faced disciple raised the corner of his mouth slightly, looked at Ran Changle and the others with contempt, and said.
"The distribution of resources in the mission building is recorded. How could there be a mistake?"
Ran Changle frowned and stared straight at the square-faced disciple.
"Why, do you suspect that I have withheld your spirit stones?"
The square-faced disciple glared at Ran Changle fiercely with a cold tone.
"When you gave the mission building to me, there must have been spirit stones inside. But when you gave it to us, the spirit stones disappeared. Could it be that the spirit stones flew away on their own?"
The dark-skinned boy whispered.
The square-faced disciple swept a cold gaze over the boy, and the boy shrank back in fear.
"Brother, where did the spirit stone go? Please give us an explanation."
Ran Changle stepped forward, blocking the square-faced disciple's gaze, and spoke seriously.
"The explanation is that there were spirit stones in the storage bag when I gave it to you. As for where the spirit stones went, that is your own business and has nothing to do with me."
Seeing that Ran Changle and the others wanted to argue, the square-faced disciple grinned and said meaningfully, "I advise you to think it over before you speak. After all, there are many ferocious monsters in the mountains behind this spiritual medicine garden. The death of one or two disciples at the first level of Qi Refining is normal. The sect will not investigate at all."
Hearing this, the others turned pale and their bodies trembled uncontrollably.
Ran Changle's face darkened, and he clenched his hands under his sleeves, wishing he could punch the square-faced disciple in the face.
The two girls were close to Ran Changle. Seeing her clenching her fists, they were worried that she would have a conflict with the square-faced disciple. They looked at each other and hurried forward.
One of them held Ran Changle's hand, and the other said in a flattering tone: "How could Senior Brother possibly be interested in such a small amount of spirit stones like us? There are spirit stones in the storage bag he gave us."
"That's good to know. How can a spirit stone be more important than life?"
The square-faced disciple glared at everyone fiercely again and spoke in a sarcastic tone.
The face of the man in front of her really disgusted Ran Changle. If she were alone, considering that this man was only at the tenth level of Qi Refining, she would definitely teach him a lesson.
But thinking that there were five other people with her, Ran Changle didn't want to implicate others, so he swallowed his anger and stopped talking.
"What about your spirit stones?"
Seeing that the others didn't dare to speak anymore, the square-faced disciple asked with a contemptuous smile.
"We used the spirit stones ourselves."
The thin boy rushed to speak.
The square-faced disciple snorted coldly, boarded the spirit boat and left.
"This person is too shameless!"
When only Ran Changle and six others were left, the dark-skinned boy stomped his feet angrily.
"Three low-grade spirit stones can buy a bottle of elixir to improve cultivation. Our aptitude is not good to begin with, and now we have no spirit stones. I don't know if we can break through to the second level of Qi Refining during the annual assessment."
The thin boy sighed and said.
"What's the point of saying this now? If you don't have the strength, you'll be beaten and wronged. If you have time to complain, you might as well finish planting the seeds and practice hard."
The burly boy said this and took the lead in choosing a cabin and walking in.
The other four people also chose a nearby wooden house to live in.
Ran Changle kept walking inside and finally chose the farthest wooden house.
The Lingxiao Sect took good care of the newcomers. In addition to tools such as hoes needed for work, various necessities were also placed in the wooden house.
There are two large vats and several wooden barrels outside the wooden house. There is a formation under the large vats to ensure that there is water in the vats at all times. It can be used for washing and it is also convenient for watering after planting the medicinal seeds.
She walked around again and found that most of the mountain was a spiritual medicine garden covered by formations, but it was overgrown with weeds and needed to be cleaned up.
Fatty hung around Ran Changle's waist and walked with her for a while, then ran off to play by himself.
After getting familiar with the terrain, Ran Changle pointed the task card at a spiritual medicine garden. A white light flashed on the task card, and the restrictions on the spiritual medicine garden were activated. Others knew that this spiritual medicine garden already had an owner.
…………
On the spirit boat, the square-faced disciple was happily checking the spirit stones he had just seized from Ran Changle and others. Suddenly, a voice came from behind him.
"Junior Brother Yuan, now that you have the spirit stones, don't forget what you promised me."
Yuan Ping quickly put away the spirit stone, turned around and bowed to the man who made the sound, saying, "Thank you, Senior Brother Feng, for your advice. Don't worry, I've already replaced the low-grade magical instruments in the spiritual medicine garden with ordinary hoes. They definitely won't be able to plant thirty acres of spiritual herbs within three months. If they do, they will fail the mission and be expelled from the sect before they even take the assessment."
"That's good."
Feng Pu nodded.
"Brother Feng, if those people have offended you, why don't you just throw them…" Yuan Ping gestured with his hand as if wiping his neck, "into the back mountains. No one will be able to find out where they are. Why do you have to expel them from the sect?"
"Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask."
Feng Pu glanced at Yuan Ping coldly.
Feeling the pressure from Feng Pu, who was in the Foundation Establishment stage, Yuan Ping's heart trembled and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Only after Feng Pu left did Yuan Ping wipe the sweat from his head with his sleeve and breathe deeply.
…………
On the second day, after getting up early and washing up, Ran Changle took a fasting pill and carried a hoe to the spiritual medicine garden to weed and turn the soil.
For Ran Changle, who can lift nearly a thousand pounds of stone with one hand, weeding and hoeing the fields are too easy.
Ran Changle was full of energy. She had hoed an acre of land in one morning. In the afternoon, while the soil was still soft, she dug holes and planted seeds.
When watering the seeds, Ran Changle felt that using a bucket to draw water was too slow, so he simply carried a water tank in one hand and watered them. When the tank was empty, he put it back into the formation to replenish the water, and continued to carry the tank to water the seeds.
In the meantime, she also tried to use the water condensation technique, but it could only water one pit at a time. After more than ten times, her spiritual power was gone, and she had to meditate to recover.
Although the spiritual power in the spiritual medicine garden is rich and the spiritual power recovers quickly, it is not as fast as she directly watering it with a vat.
When it was getting dark, she had already planted the entire one-acre spiritual medicine garden with spiritual medicine seeds and watered them.
