"Today, I will assign a farming area to the three of you."
Fan Jie glanced at the three of them, then walked to Li An, roughly grabbed Li An's arm and checked it.
Wang Zilin watched from the side, gloating.
Li An couldn't succeed in practicing Qi, so he would suffer the consequences!
But, the next moment, Fan Jie nodded: "Well, although the spiritual energy is very weak, it can be said to be the weakest first-level Qi training I have ever seen, but at least he succeeded in practicing Qi."
He put down Li An's hand.
Wang Zilin and Zhang Susu were a little surprised.
Isn't Li An's spiritual root broken? How could he succeed in practicing Qi!
However, thinking of what Fan Jie said about "the weakest first-level Qi training", the two did not feel so surprised. It should be that Li An practiced Qi at all costs and fought to the death to achieve this insignificant result.
"According to the situation of the three of you, Wang Zilin will be in charge of the ten acres of spiritual fields on the right!"
"Zhang Susu will be in charge of the ten acres of spiritual fields on the left."
"Li An will be in charge of the ten acres of spiritual fields in the middle!"
Fan Jie finished speaking.
Li An was a little surprised.
He actually got the most fertile part? !
Wang Zilin had the fastest progress in cultivation and the best mastery of the technique of raising clouds and rain, but he only got the spiritual fields on the right, which were of medium quality.
Zhang Susu was in charge of the left part, which was of the worst quality.
But he thought about it for a moment and understood it instantly.
Fan Jie was finally going to take action on Zhang Susu, the fat piece of meat.
His method was nothing more than letting Zhang Susu take charge of the most difficult work first, and suffer the most, and then it would not take long before Zhang Susu would be transferred to the best spiritual fields.
After realizing the gap between the two, Zhang Susu wanted to always be in charge of the easiest and most rewarding spiritual fields, so she would naturally pay something...
It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.
The worst one was given to Zhang Susu, leaving the best and medium spiritual fields.
Li An guessed that the best spiritual field was given to Li An because Wang Zilin and Zhang Susu were close, which made Fan Jie unhappy.
Li An couldn't help but sigh that Miss Susu was really his benefactor.
"Master, Li An's cultivation is the weakest, why give him the best?"
Wang Zilin spoke indignantly.
Zhang Susu also frowned. She was actually responsible for the worst one. It was unfair!
However, Fan Jie looked at Wang Zilin coldly and slapped him.
Pah!
Wang Zilin's face was instantly red and swollen, and his gums couldn't help bleeding.
"Are you not convinced?"
Fan Jie asked coldly.
Wang Zilin's eyes showed deep fear, and he lowered his head instantly, "No... I dare not."
Zhang Susu saw this and immediately shut up.
"Well, there is one more thing."
Fan Jie took out three clay pots and handed them to Li An and the other two:
"During this period, there are some borers in the rice fields. When you three take care of the spiritual fields, use these medicine powders to kill the insects."
Li An's heart moved. Fan Jie went out for so long, should it be for this matter?
If Li An guessed correctly, Fan Jie should have found a place like the black market to prepare these "insecticides".
For normal insect pests, Fan Jie only needs to report to the sect, and the sect will naturally send people to deal with it.
But this time the insect pest was caused by his stealing of spiritual energy, so he certainly didn't dare to let the sect know.
But Li An looked calm, took the clay pot, and went to the middle part of the spiritual field he was responsible for.
Fan Jie opened the spiritual field protection ban, and the three of them entered the spiritual field smoothly.
For a while, clouds formed under the spiritual plant mountain, and light rain fell, watering the spiritual field.
Fan Jie stood outside and patrolled, looking at the middle spiritual field from time to time.
Everything was normal, so he returned to the top of the mountain with peace of mind.
…
In the evening, a day's work was over.
Fan Jie appeared and checked the pockets of the three people's clothes, etc., to make sure that the three people did not steal the spiritual rice privately, and then let them out of the spiritual field.
Then the monthly allowance for this month was distributed to the three people.
Because the three people have passed the rookie period and started to work, and the consumption will increase after they have cultivated, so each person was given three bags of spiritual rice, a total of about ten kilograms.
The spiritual stone is still a small half piece.
The joy of getting the monthly allowance diluted the fatigue of the day.
"Susu, come on, I heard that as long as the output of the spiritual field reaches the standard, the excess will be rewarded to us according to a certain ratio. At that time, we will have a surplus and can sell it for spiritual stones!"
Wang Zilin spoke with full motivation.
The spiritual energy provided by the spiritual rice is limited, plus the consumption of moving clouds and rain every day, it can't be accumulated much in the body.
Spirit stones are the most important. "Yes, come on, I must work hard and strive to break through to the third level of Qi training one day, then I can apply to become a registered disciple!"
Zhang Susu also wiped the sweat from her face. She was radiant. After a day of work, her clothes were wet with sweat. The light gray chores were close to her body, making her figure more graceful.
In their eyes, they all had expectations for life, and they all thought that through their own efforts and struggles, they could realize their dreams and goals.
"Li An, you should also come on!"
Zhang Susu spoke to Li An again.
Li An was specially taken care of by Fan Jie, which made her feel that Li An might have some relationship with Fan Jie.
It is still necessary to make friends.
Li An smiled.
"Well, come on."
...
At night, Li An, as always, took advantage of the late night to sneak into the spiritual field.
He went straight to the vortex.
Just as Li An thought, this vortex that steals spiritual energy did not dare to start during the day, and no one could find it. It would only start at night.
Dozens of fat spiritual rice borer larvae were produced around the vortex.
This was Li An's third harvest of high-quality protein.
"This is not a solution..."
Li An whispered.
There are too many impurities in the spiritual rice, and the absorption speed is slow. Even though he has entered the first level of Qi Refining now, he can only absorb about three pounds of spiritual rice at most every day.
The amount of spiritual energy that can be obtained is stuck.
The spiritual rice borer is rich in spiritual energy, but the number is very limited.
The follow-up still depends on spiritual stones!
Otherwise, relying on spiritual rice, it is unknown how many years it will take before he can see the hope of breaking through the second level of Qi Refining.
...
Half a month passed in a flash.
The hard work of farming gradually overwhelmed the initial expectations and freshness. Wang Zilin and Zhang Susu didn't talk as much as before.
Especially Zhang Susu, there was obviously more fatigue and anxiety in her eyes.
The spiritual rice is about to enter the maturity period, and now this period of time is very critical.
But she worked hard and was exhausted every day, but she found that the growth of her spiritual rice could not catch up with Wang Zilin and Li An.
If this continues, the output of the same piece of land is estimated to be only one-third of that of Li An's part.
Wang Zilin was also more and more jealous.
It's not that Li An's cultivation is better than theirs. In fact, Li An works for a shorter time every day and rests most of the time.
But the terrain is good, and he can just sit back and enjoy the fruits of his labor.
"Brother Li, you are so lucky."
There was some helplessness and envy in Zhang Susu's beautiful eyes.
Li An coughed twice, and his face looked a little weak: "My spiritual root injury has not healed yet. It may be that the immortal took care of me because I was weak, so he gave me a piece of spiritual field that is easy to take care of."
After that, he went back to the house to rest.
"Susu, don't worry, I will work harder tomorrow, and I will come to help you after I finish my work. I believe that as long as we work hard, our land will be more fertile than his sooner or later..."
Wang Zilin gritted his teeth and spoke unyieldingly.
...
Another seven days passed.
During these days, Wang Zilin fulfilled his promise, and after finishing his own work every day, he went to help Zhang Susu, and he was as tired as an ox.
Fan Jie entered the spiritual field once, and did not comment on the work results of the three people. He just checked the effect of the "insecticide" used by the three people.
He frowned more and more, because he found that the effects of these three insecticides were not ideal. The best one was the can of insecticide used by Wang Zilin, but two or three out of ten borers were not killed.
He told Li An to temporarily take over the management of this place for a few days, and he had to go out.
Being "given an important task" made Wang Zilin and Zhang Susu more envious for a while.
They felt more and more that Li An and Fan Jie must have some relationship, which made Fan Jie trust and care so much.
Li An knew it well.
Fan Jie just thought he was easy to control.
Because, in Fan Jie's opinion, Li An's spiritual roots were damaged, and he broke through to the first level of Qi training without recovery. He might only stay at the first level of Qi training in this life.
...
On the last day of the second month, Fan Jie had not returned.
But on this day, a guest came to the door.
Wang Dazhu!
"Brother An, I'm here to see you!"
From a distance, Wang Dazhu couldn't wait to run over with a smile on his face.
...
