Forty years old, awakening attribute panel

Chapter 253

Jiang Sheng was about to leave the library, and before he put the "Mysterious Plants Encyclopedia" back in his hand, he already had a plan for the next step of exploration in his mind. At this moment, the voice of the librarian Luo Mi broke the silence of the library.

"Jiang Sheng, wait a moment." Luo Mi's voice was steady and magnetic. He walked out from behind a bookshelf not far away, holding a thick book in his hand and a gentle smile on his face.

Jiang Sheng turned around and his eyes met Romy's. He noticed that Romy's eyes revealed a hint of mystery and expectation, which made him curious.

"Senior Luo Mi, what advice do you have?" Jiang Sheng asked respectfully, with a hint of humility in his voice.

Luo Mi smiled slightly, put the book aside, and walked to Jiang Sheng. He pointed at the "Mysterious Plants Encyclopedia" in Jiang Sheng's hand, and then slowly said: "Jiang Sheng, do you know that there are many restricted books in this library?"

Jiang Sheng nodded and replied, "I know a little bit, but I know that the family rules are strict and I dare not cross them."

Romy nodded with satisfaction and continued, "Indeed, the family rules cannot be ignored. But what I want to tell you is that these restricted books are not completely unreadable."

A hint of surprise flashed across Jiang Sheng's eyes, and he hurriedly asked, "Senior, what do you mean by that?"

Romy smiled mysteriously and said, "You can unlock these restricted books by accumulating merit points. Merit points can be obtained by completing tasks on the family's bulletin board."

Jiang Sheng's eyes flashed with excitement, and he quickly asked: "Excuse me, senior, how difficult are these tasks? How do I get merit points?"

Romy smiled and explained, "The difficulty of each task varies, some are simple and some are complex. You can view the task details on the bulletin board and choose the task that suits you according to your ability. Every time you complete a task, you will gain corresponding merit points. When the merit points accumulate to a certain level, you can unlock the corresponding restricted books."

"Thank you for your guidance, senior!" Jiang Sheng's voice was full of gratitude. "I will do my best to go deep into the family's bulletin board, accept the challenge, complete the task, and strive to unlock these restricted books as soon as possible."

Luo Mi nodded slightly, with a smile of approval on his face. He reached out and gently patted Jiang Sheng on the shoulder, as if to give him encouragement and strength.

"Young man, your determination and courage give me hope." Romy's voice was low and powerful.

Jiang Sheng stood in the courtyard of the family mansion, the sunlight shining through the gaps between the branches of the ancient tree, dappled on his face. He squinted his eyes slightly, trying to recall the specific location of the notice board in his mind. That notice board was not only a distribution center for the release and acceptance of family tasks, but also a playground for him and his friends to play in his childhood.

He took a deep breath of fresh air, walked with firm steps through the winding corridors, and headed towards the family hall. Every step seemed to carry his determination and expectations, and the bluestone road under his feet seemed to respond to his steps, making a slight echo.

In the family hall, light shines through the carved window lattices and onto the smooth mahogany floor, creating mottled light and shadows. The air is filled with a faint scent of sandalwood, which interweaves with the agarwood scent of the mahogany furniture, creating a solemn and mysterious atmosphere.

Around the hall, tall mahogany pillars stand majestically, each of which is carved with intricate and exquisite family totems, which seem to tell the family's long history and brilliant achievements. The mythical beasts in the totems are lifelike, as if ready to jump out of the wood at any time to protect the family's glory and inheritance.

Jiang Sheng walked into the hall, his steps light and firm, each step seemed to measure the family's history and honor. His eyes looked around the hall and finally fixed on Elder Green who was sitting behind the heavy wooden table.

Elder Green was wearing a dark robe with an exquisite family emblem embroidered on it, which showed his noble status and position. His face was serious and earnest, as if every task issuance and acceptance was related to the fate and future of the family. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle, flashing with wisdom and determination.

Jiang Sheng walked forward, slowing down his pace as he approached Elder Green, appearing extremely respectful. He bowed his head slightly, put his hands together, and performed a standard family etiquette to Elder Green. His movements were smooth and elegant, revealing his good family upbringing and cultivation.

"Jiang Sheng, you're here." Elder Green's voice echoed in the hall, deep and powerful, like an ancient bell, echoing in every corner. His voice carried an unquestionable majesty, as if every word condensed the family's expectations and weight.

When Jiang Sheng heard the call, he immediately stopped and took a few steps forward respectfully. He bowed his head slightly and put his hands together in front of his chest to show respect for the elder. His eyes flashed with determination, and his face maintained a humble and respectful expression.

"Yes, Elder." Jiang Sheng's voice was clear and powerful. Although it was a little nervous, it was more firm and determined. He continued, "I want to check the tasks on the bulletin board, hoping to find a training opportunity that suits me."

Elder Green nodded slightly, and his deep eyes stayed on Jiang Sheng for a moment, as if examining his determination and courage. Then, he stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the bulletin board. His fingers were slender and powerful, and his fingertips trembled slightly, as if carrying the responsibility and expectations of the family.

"Go, kid." Elder Green's voice became gentler, but still carried unquestionable majesty. "Choose a mission that you think is appropriate, train yourself, and bring honor to the family."

When Jiang Sheng heard the elder's encouragement, the tension in his heart suddenly dissipated. He took a deep breath, straightened his chest, and walked towards the bulletin board.

Walking to the notice board, Jiang Sheng's steps slowed down unconsciously, and his eyes began to carefully move over the scrolls. On the notice board, the scrolls were neatly arranged, each representing a task of the family, and each containing different challenges and opportunities.

His eyes first fell on a scroll with a gold edge, on which was written: "Hunt the Silver-Winged Demon Fox and take its tail feathers as proof." He frowned slightly. This task sounded very difficult. The Silver-Winged Demon Fox was notoriously cunning and powerful, but its tail feathers were precious materials for refining high-level elixirs and were of great significance to the family.

Then, Jiang Sheng turned his attention to another scroll, which read: "Escort the caravan to the border and ensure the safety of the goods." This task seems simple, but bandits often appear in border areas, and it has high requirements on the strength and experience of the escort.

Not far away, a scroll caught Jiang Sheng's attention. It read: "Explore the lost ancient ruins and find the family's lost treasures." This mission is full of unknowns and dangers. The ancient ruins not only contain various mechanisms and traps, but may also hide powerful monsters. But for explorers, this is also a rare opportunity.

Jiang Sheng's gaze continued to move downwards and he saw an even more peculiar task: "Research and improve the family's alchemy skills." This task had extremely high requirements for alchemy skills, but if successful it would not only bring a higher level of alchemy to the family, but would also allow Jiang Sheng to gain great improvement in alchemy.

After carefully weighing all the tasks, Jiang Sheng's eyes finally settled on a seemingly simple yet practical task - guarding the spiritual herbs. He took a deep breath and gently placed his fingers on the scroll, as if he could feel the cool breath coming from it.

"I choose this mission." Jiang Sheng's voice was firm and clear. He raised his head and looked at Elder Green, with determination flashing in his eyes.

Elder Green nodded slightly, his eyes stayed on Jiang Sheng for a moment, as if appreciating his choice. He knew that although this task was less difficult, it also required patience and carefulness, which was what Jiang Sheng was good at.

"Very good, Jiang Sheng." Elder Green's voice was low and powerful. "Although the task of protecting the spiritual herbs seems simple, it is equally important. The spiritual herbs are important materials for the family's alchemy. Protecting them is a contribution to the family."

Jiang Sheng nodded, bowed deeply, and then turned to the task scroll. He reached out and carefully took the scroll off the bulletin board, as if holding a precious treasure.

The scroll trembled slightly in Jiang Sheng's hand. He could feel the uneven handwriting and the rough texture of the paper. He gently unfolded the scroll and carefully read the details of the task on it.

The scroll trembled slightly in Jiang Sheng's hand, as if it was also resonating with him about the task that was about to be carried out. He could clearly feel the uneven handwriting on it, each stroke seemed strong and powerful, and the rough texture of the paper made people feel a sense of simplicity and solemnity. Jiang Sheng gently unfolded the scroll, his eyes full of concentration, reading the details of the task on it word by word.

"Task client: Alice, the manager of the Spiritual Medicine Garden." Jiang Sheng read it out softly, with a hint of respect in his eyes. Alice is the elder in charge of the Spiritual Medicine Garden in the family. Her care and understanding of spiritual medicines are unmatched. Jiang Sheng knows that it is an honor and a responsibility to be trusted and entrusted by her.

"Mission time: from now until the day when the spiritual grass matures." Jiang Sheng continued to read, calculating the time in his mind, knowing that this would be a long-term task that required continuous attention. But he did not hesitate at all, because he knew that only in this way could the safe growth of the spiritual grass be ensured.

"Mission location: Family Spiritual Medicine Garden." Jiang Sheng's mind flashed with the image of the Spiritual Medicine Garden, a place he had been to many times. There were many kinds of spiritual herbs there, each with its own unique growth habits and needs. Jiang Sheng understood that he needed to go there, observe carefully, and understand the growth of each spiritual herb in order to effectively protect them.

"Main requirements: Remove pests that absorb the spiritual energy of the spiritual herbs and ensure the safe growth of the spiritual herbs."

Jiang Sheng stood in the hall, holding the scroll in his hand, and a desire to explore the unknown world surged in his heart. He knew that taking care of spiritual herbs was not just a task, but also an opportunity to deeply understand the mysteries of the Field of Life.

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm his mind. In his imagination, the spiritual medicine garden was a vibrant world, with various spiritual herbs growing and emitting a faint fragrance. These spiritual herbs were tall or short, fat or thin, but they all had their own vitality and coexisted harmoniously with the surrounding environment.

Jiang Sheng held the scroll in his arms and walked towards the family's spiritual medicine garden with firm steps. The sun shone through the clouds and cast a long shadow on him. His heart was full of anticipation, but also a little nervous, after all, this was the first time he had undertaken such an important task alone.

The Spiritual Medicine Garden is located deep in the family's territory, surrounded by dense trees, and the air is filled with a faint medicinal fragrance. Jiang Sheng walked through an ancient stone gate and stepped into this mysterious and vibrant world.

In the garden, various spiritual herbs are lush and green, some are several feet tall, and some are short like moss. Their leaves are of different shapes and colors, as if they are a palette carefully prepared by nature. The sun shines through the sparse clouds and sprinkles on the spiritual herbs, forming patches of golden light. When the breeze blows, the spiritual herbs sway gently, making a rustling sound, as if whispering.

Jiang Sheng looked around, and couldn't help but sigh at the magic and beauty of this field of life. He took a deep breath, feeling the medicinal fragrance in the air, as if he could feel the vitality of each spiritual herb. "Very good, Jiang Sheng. You chose this task, which means you have the ability to fight and fight. The sun shines obliquely, passing through the layers of leaves in the spiritual herb garden, casting mottled light and shadows. In this interweaving of light and shadow, a woman in a green dress walked slowly. She was Alice, the manager of the spiritual herb garden. The hem of the long skirt swayed gently with her steps, as if dancing with the spiritual herbs around her.

Alice's face was marked by the traces of time, but her eyes were still bright and deep, as if she could see into people's hearts. Her green dress blended in with the spiritual grass around her, making her look more like a part of this field of life.

As she approached Jiang Sheng, a gentle smile appeared on her face, and her eyes flashed with admiration. She stretched out her hand and gently took the scroll handed to her by Jiang Sheng.

"Jiang Sheng, you're here." Alice's voice was as clear as spring water, gentle and powerful, giving people a sense of security.

Jiang Sheng bowed his head respectfully and replied, "Yes, Elder Alice. I have come to hand over the task to you." There was a hint of nervousness in his voice, but more of firmness and determination.

Alice gently unfolded the scroll and carefully read the task requirements. Her fingers slid lightly across the rough paper, and every movement seemed so graceful and calm.

Jiang Sheng stood aside, feeling nervous and expectant. He knew that he was about to undertake an important task, and Elder Alice would be his mentor and supporter. He couldn't help but secretly observe Alice's expression, trying to read some clues from her demeanor.

After Alice finished reading the scroll, she looked up at Jiang Sheng. Her eyes sparkled with wisdom, as if she had seen through Jiang Sheng's heart.

"Jiang Sheng, this mission is both a challenge and an opportunity for you." Alice's voice was filled with encouragement. "I believe you have enough courage and wisdom to face this challenge."

Jiang Sheng took a deep breath, feeling the encouragement and trust from Elder Alice flowing into his heart like a warm current. He straightened his chest and looked at Elder Alice firmly.

"Elder Alice, please rest assured." Jiang Sheng said solemnly, "I will do my best to ensure the safe growth of the spiritual herbs."

Elder Alice smiled and nodded, then reached out and patted Jiang Sheng on the shoulder. Although this action was simple, it conveyed a power of trust and support.

"Very good, Jiang Sheng." Elder Alice's voice was full of praise, "I believe you will not let me down."

"This spiritual medicine garden is an important resource for our family. The growth of spiritual herbs is directly related to the prosperity and prosperity of the family. I believe you can handle this task." Alice's voice was full of trust and expectation.

Jiang Sheng nodded, a firm expression on his face. He bowed deeply to show his respect and gratitude to Alice.

"Elder Alice, please rest assured. I will do my best to ensure the safe growth of the spiritual herbs." Jiang Sheng said solemnly.

Elder Alice stood in front of Jiang Sheng, her hands gently placed on his shoulders. Her eyes were deep and focused, as if she wanted to pour all her wisdom and experience into this young member of the tribe.

"Jiang Sheng, this spiritual medicine garden is the pride of our family. Every spiritual herb carries the hope and expectation of our family." Alice's voice was soft but firm, and every word was full of power.

She gently led Jiang Sheng to a lush spiritual grass field, pointed to a spiritual grass that exuded a faint fragrance and said, "This is Qingshuang grass. Its leaves are light blue and it likes a cool and humid environment. You need to pay special attention to its humidity and make sure it gets enough water."

As Elder Alice spoke, she gently stroked the leaves of the Green Frost Grass. Her movements were gentle and focused, as if she was having some kind of deep communication with this spiritual herb.

Then, she pointed to another magical herb, a strange-looking one with leaves covered with tiny hairs. "This is fireweed. Although its leaves look fragile, they can withstand high temperatures. In the hot sun, you need to make sure it gets enough shade."

Elder Alice's expression was serious and earnest, and her eyes were full of love and respect for the spiritual herbs. Jiang Sheng was infected by her concentration and love, and he also carefully observed these spiritual herbs, trying to remember their characteristics and needs.

In addition to the characteristics of spiritual herbs, Elder Alice also introduced common pests and their harm to Jiang Sheng. She described in detail the appearance and living habits of these pests, and told Jiang Sheng how to identify them and deal with their threats.

"When it comes to preventing pests, the most important thing is to be careful and patient," said Elder Alice. "You need to regularly inspect the growth of spiritual herbs. Once you find any traces of pests, you must take immediate action."

As she spoke, she took out a small exquisite bottle from her waist, which contained a light yellow liquid. "This is the insect repellent I mixed myself, which is effective against most pests. You only need to spray it around the spiritual grass to effectively prevent pests from invading."

As Elder Alice spoke, she handed the small bottle to Jiang Sheng. Her eyes were full of trust and expectation, as if to say, "Now, it's up to you."

Taking the tools handed over by Elder Alice, Jiang Sheng took a deep breath and turned to the spiritual field area of ​​the spiritual medicine garden. The sun shone through the sparse clouds, sprinkled on the moist soil, and a faint luster appeared. The air was filled with the fragrance of soil and the unique fragrance of spiritual herbs. This was the unique breath of the field of life.

Jiang Sheng stepped into the spiritual field. The soil under his feet was soft and moist. Every step he took seemed to have some kind of wonderful connection with the land. He looked around and saw that the spiritual herbs were growing densely, and each one looked vibrant and green. Their leaves swayed gently in the breeze, as if telling Jiang Sheng about the vitality and vigor of the land.

Jiang Sheng stood at the edge of the spiritual field, his eyes as sharp as a cheetah, scanning each spiritual herb attentively. These spiritual herbs were not ordinary plants, they contained the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, and each one had unique vitality and spirituality.

He approached a spiritual herb and saw crystal dew on its leaves. The dew shone charmingly in the sun, as if it was the condensation of the soul of the spiritual herb. Jiang Sheng reached out and gently touched the leaves. The texture of the leaves was as smooth as silk, but also a little cold. He closed his eyes and felt the breath of life transmitted by the spiritual herb with his heart. It was a kind of energetic and vital force.

A few steps further, Jiang Sheng saw a spiritual herb that had already blossomed with tiny flowers. The flower was small and exquisite, the petals were crystal clear, and it exuded a faint fragrance. He squatted down and carefully observed the spiritual herb. I saw that its roots were deeply rooted in the soil, as if absorbing the essence of the earth. And the tiny flowers were the manifestation of its vitality and the condensation of its spirituality.

Jiang Sheng reached out his hand and gently stroked the petals of the flower. He could feel the softness and delicacy of the petals, and the aura contained in the flower. He took a deep breath, as if he could smell the fragrance of the flower, a refreshing fragrance that made people forget all their troubles in an instant.

He continued to observe the other spiritual herbs, each with different shapes and characteristics. Some had broad, emerald green leaves; others had slender leaves, as soft as willow branches. He carefully felt the vitality of each spiritual herb, as if he could hear their heartbeats, a sound full of energy and vitality.

Deep in the spiritual field, the sun shines through the sparse clouds, sprinkling on the soil in patches, forming a crisscross of light and shadow. Jiang Sheng shuttles through this green spiritual field, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, looking for possible hidden dangers. Suddenly, his sight is fixed on a few slightly wilted spiritual herbs.

He squatted down, leaned forward slightly, and gently pushed aside the leaves around him with his hands, carefully observing these spiritual herbs. They were covered with dense tiny insect holes, as if they had been bitten by countless tiny sharp teeth. The edges of the leaves began to turn yellow, looking lifeless, in sharp contrast to the vibrant spiritual herbs around them.

Jiang Sheng frowned, and a trace of anxiety flashed in his eyes. He knew that these spiritual herbs were an important part of this spiritual field. If they were not treated in time, they would probably wither and die, thus affecting the ecological balance of the entire spiritual field.

He carefully reached out his hand and gently touched the leaves of the spiritual herbs. The touch from his fingers made his heart sink - these leaves had lost their former elasticity and became dry and fragile. He gently stroked the wormholes on the leaves, feeling those tiny wounds. Each wormhole was like a scar of the spiritual herbs, recording the pain they had suffered.

Jiang Sheng moved quickly and orderly. He immediately took out the bottle of insect repellent given by Elder Alice from the tool bag on his waist. He gently unscrewed the bottle cap, and a faint herbal fragrance came to his nose, which seemed to dispel the dullness around him. He adjusted the angle of the nozzle to ensure that the liquid could be sprayed evenly on the damaged spiritual grass.

As the insect repellent was sprayed, the originally languishing spiritual herbs seemed to be injected with new vitality. Their leaves trembled slightly, as if they were breathing in the fresh liquid, and every drop moistened their damaged leaves like nectar. Jiang Sheng could clearly see that the edges of the originally yellow leaves began to gradually turn green, and the wounds around the wormholes were slowly healing.

Jiang Sheng smiled with relief, and he gently stroked the leaves of the spiritual herbs that had regained their vitality. The touch gradually changed from rough to soft, and he seemed to be able to feel the joy and gratitude in the hearts of the spiritual herbs. He whispered in a low voice: "You must get better, you are the hope of this spiritual field."

After dealing with the damaged spiritual herbs, Jiang Sheng did not relax at all. He knew that he had a heavy responsibility and that every spiritual herb needed his careful care. He continued to inspect the spiritual field with a sharp eye, not missing any details.

He gently waved the tool in his hand, removing the weeds that competed with the spiritual grass for nutrients one by one. His movements were both gentle and decisive, as if he was having a silent conversation with the land. He was well aware of the threat of weeds. If they were not removed in time, they would rob the spiritual grass of nutrients and space, resulting in limited growth of the spiritual grass.

After dealing with the damaged spiritual herbs, Jiang Sheng did not stop. He continued to inspect the spiritual field to ensure that every spiritual herb was properly cared for. He used the tools in his hand to gently remove the weeds to ensure that the spiritual herbs had enough nutrients and space to grow.

After dealing with the damaged spiritual herbs, Jiang Sheng took a deep breath and continued to inspect the spiritual field with a determined look. The tool in his hand gleamed in the sun, which was his weapon to protect this spiritual field.

He moved slowly, taking every step with extreme caution, fearing to step on any growing spiritual herbs. His eyes were like a scanner, not missing any corner of the spiritual field.

Jiang Sheng came to an area of ​​weeds. He squatted down and carefully distinguished the weeds from the spiritual herbs. He gently ran his fingers across the ground, feeling the moisture and temperature of the soil, and judging whether the growth environment of the spiritual herbs was suitable.

After confirming the target, he gently picked up the tool in his hand, which was a sharp sickle. He swung the sickle skillfully, and each swing was just right, cutting off the roots of the weeds to ensure that they would not grow again. His movements were swift and accurate, as if he was performing an elegant dance.
