Chapter 56 – The gift of planting

Chapter 56: Planting Talent
Although planting is quite tiring, the harvest is also very happy.

Snow-like spirit rice fell to the ground, Xu Chuniang no longer hesitated, took out the spirit weapon specially designed to collect spirit rice, and began to collect the spirit rice.

She started by collecting the ordinary spirit rice first.

Possibly due to the more abundant spiritual qi in the spiritual field, the yield of half of the spiritual field rose from 400 pounds to 420 pounds, the increase was not much but it was still better than nothing.

Then there was the crescent moon rice.

Compared to the ordinary spirit rice, the crescent moon rice yield was much lower, but it was also harvested with a full harvest of 200 pounds.

Finally, there were those key care crescent moon rice.

Xu Chuniang cast her gaze towards that small area, only to see a thick layer of snow-white crescent moon rice, jade and snow lovely.

Thirty-six Spirit Rice plants with a harvest of 27 pounds, the yield was twice as much as the yield of ordinary Crescent Rice, almost as much as the yield of ordinary Spirit Rice.

A thought flashed through Xu Chuniang’s mind, if the next time she sowed, she used this Improved Crescent Rice as the seed, would it be possible to double the yield of the crescent rice?

Thinking of this possibility made her jump for joy, itching to start sowing now.

However, I’m afraid that this would require even more spiritual qi in the spiritual field, so if she really wanted to plant it, she would have to plan it out properly.

Xu Chuniang shook her head and suppressed the idea for the time being, anyway, there was no hurry to plant the seeds, she would wait until she returned after delivering the spiritual rice.

After organizing all the harvest, Xu Chunniang walked towards the top of the Spirit Plant Peak, ready to hand in the Spirit Rice.

The peak has always been calm, but today it is very lively, thinking that the disciples have all collected the spiritual rice and are coming this way.

Before she reached the peak, she heard other people’s voices.

“Hey, how’s your harvest, I’ve spent half of this half year tending to the spirit fields, and I’ve finally harvested a good amount, a full 450 pounds.”

“That much? I also spent quite a bit of time on the spirit field, but my spirit field’s location is average, I only harvested 420 pounds, but I’m already satisfied.”

The disciple who spoke had a happy face, together with the contribution value, he could have earned nearly 50 spirit stones this year.

“It’s already very good to harvest this much, not everyone is as powerful as Senior Brother Zhang, I heard that his harvest this time, was a full ten pounds more than last time, reaching 502 pounds!”

“Heavens, so much! I thought that last time, Senior Brother Zhang harvested 492 pounds, which was already the limit, but I didn’t expect him to break through again.”

“Alas, if only I could know how Senior Brother Zhang takes care of the spirit fields.”

“What are you thinking, this is someone’s skill, how could he tell you so easily?”

A disciple lowered his voice and spoke in a mysterious manner, “But I’ve heard that Senior Brother Zhang has learned a handful of Spirit Zephyr Techniques, and is able to individually add spiritual energy to spiritual plants. I wonder if it’s related to this.”

“The Spirit Zephyr Technique is already a more advanced technique, and it has to take thirty spirit stones to be able to topographize it. I also want to learn it, but it’s just too expensive to afford.”

Xu Chuniang walked to the peak just in time to hear the entire conversation of several people.

She also knew about the Spirit Zephyr Technique, it was a Spirit Plant Fu’s advanced technique, she just didn’t know how useful it actually was.

Listening to these few people talk about it, it seemed to be very useful.

But soon, Xu Chuniang dismissed the idea of learning the Spirit Zephyr Technique.

She had a lot of things to do right now, and the Spirit Zephyr Foe aspect of the art was sufficient, so it was unnecessary to learn this type of art for the time being.

After Xu Chuniang arrived, the other people looked at her, but they didn’t show sneering expressions like before.

After all, the last time she handed over spiritual rice, although Xu Chunniang hadn’t paid enough, it wasn’t too little. She was happy to live in peace, listening to others talk about gossip and interesting stories about Spirit Planters while waiting in line to hand over her Spirit Rice.

When Xu Chuniang’s turn came, she first took out two large bags of spiritual rice, and then took out a small bag of spiritual rice and placed it on top, making up for the lesser spiritual rice last time.

Seeing this, Steward Sun brought some smiles to his face.

How much spiritual rice there was, he could almost tell just by looking at it.

But a routine inspection was naturally unavoidable.

He opened the spirit rice bag and grabbed out a handful of white spirit rice, the smile on his face couldn’t even be concealed, “The quality of this spirit rice is really good.”

He had noticed last time that the spirit rice Xu Chuniang had submitted was of very good quality, with almost no flaws.

It was only that last time, the portion of spirit rice she submitted was insufficient, so he didn’t make a point of saying so.

Unexpectedly this time, this little girl had brought herself another surprise, not only had the portion reached its target, the quality was still as good as before.

When the others saw this scene, some people were disdainful, some people were unimpressed, and some people’s hearts became unbalanced!

This person is the third level of qi practicing ……

Huh, no, when did she break through to the fourth level of Qi Practicing?
But this is not important, the important thing is, she is just a newcomer ah, full of only planting spiritual rice for a year only, how can she be better than these old people they planted?

“Steward Sun, she’s just a newcomer, her previous cultivation wasn’t even at the middle level of Qi Practicing, she must have been assigned a good spirit field to grow such good spirit rice.”

“That’s not true, the spiritual qi of the spiritual field I was assigned is too scarce, if I could have a good spiritual field, I would definitely be able to grow more and better spiritual rice than this.”

“She is just relying on a good spiritual field to get this much harvest …….”

Several old disciples opened their mouths, their words full of indignation.

“All shut up!”

Steward Sun put away the smile on his face, his gaze swept over the faces of the few people who spoke, and the few people who were touched by his gaze closed their mouths tightly despite their reluctance.

“You guys thought that she allocated good spiritual fields, but you guys don’t think about it, the best batch of spiritual fields have long been picked away, and a lot of people are staring at it. Even if there is a good spiritual field out there, where would it be her turn?”

Steward Sun sank his face and said expressionlessly, “I’m not afraid to tell you that she picked Spiritual Field #172.”

The crowd burst into a gasp of surprise, “What, Spiritual Field #172? It’s the one halfway up the mountain, not only remote, but also extremely barren?”

“That piece of spirit field has been abandoned for many years because it’s so poor that no one has been willing to pick it, and she actually picked that piece.”

“Too unbelievable, choosing a piece of barren wasteland and actually being able to harvest so much!”

Hearing the crowd’s comments, Steward Sun nodded with a slightly softer expression.

“It was me who personally handed over the spiritual field to her, where is the fake? To be able to make a barren field have such a harvest, in terms of the skill of a Spiritual Planter, I don’t think she’s any worse than you veterans who have been planting for years.”

Embarrassment flashed across the faces of the crowd, where is this not worse than them, it is simply much better than them.

After all, they didn’t have the ability to challenge that 172nd Spirit Field.

There was that generation with a delicate mind, immediately with a smile on his face, rushed Xu Chuniang and said in a friendly manner, “This senior sister …… Oh no, it’s this senior sister, can I ask you to teach me a little bit, how do you take care of the spirit field on weekdays?”

The others hurriedly perked up their ears, wanting to hear exactly what secret Xu Chuniang had.
