The Emperor is Above

Chapter 523: The shock of the Zhongzhou coalition soldiers

"Wow—"

A group of wild dragon vultures flew across the sky with loud cries.

It messed up the clothes of the Zhongzhou coalition soldiers below, and also messed up their hearts.

Surrounded by mountains, snow-capped peaks and lush forests, a vast mountain basin suddenly comes into view.

In the flat basin, villages are not uncommon, but what is rare are the magical rice, golden grains and magical potatoes that are spread over most of the basin.

The spiritual rice and golden corn have just begun to ear and are not yet mature. Above the rolling green waves, there is still a rich spiritual energy swirling, and faint five-colored lights are flashing in the air.

"hiss--"

Shen Buhai and Shen Bumie looked at each other in shock, then said to Qing Yi in surprise,
"Yaqing, the entire Dragon City mound isn't planted with only spiritual rice, right? I see there are at least several types of spiritual rice in front of me."

"Of course it's not all spiritual rice. Our spring ploughing this year was rather hasty, and the one million mu of arable land we planted only accounted for half of the flat land. Of that, only 60% was spiritual rice, while golden millet and spiritual potatoes each accounted for 20%."

Qing Yi replied with a smile, "I don't know what kind of spiritual rice is suitable for growing in this land, so I only collected fifteen kinds of spiritual rice, and will select the appropriate spiritual rice to focus on planting later."

Only fifteen kinds of spiritual rice? Any kind of spiritual rice is a treasure that is enough to pass on to the country!
Generally speaking, the princes of the various countries in Zhongzhou have about five kinds of spiritual rice, right? The gardens under the name of Emperor Diqiu also have only twelve kinds of spiritual rice.

Shen Buhai and the others were shocked and speechless, but they were also surprised by the high quality of the spiritual rice they saw:

"Pearl rice, Qingling rice, Huangliang rice, Qionghua rice... and even Longya rice? Where did you get these seeds from?"

In a paddy field covering hundreds of acres by the roadside, a field of tall, lush green rice seedlings is extremely eye-catching. The entire plant is nearly ten feet tall, with huge leaves like black jade, and each root standing up like a sharp sword.

However, the rice ears that have just emerged are the most eye-catching. The flowers that bloom from the light purple shells look like dragon teeth one foot long.

The rich spiritual energy condensed into mist that lingered between the flower spikes, and there were even drops of spiritual liquid gathered on the flower spikes, slowly dripping down.

There was a strong flash of shock and confusion in Shen Bumie's eyes. Dragon Tooth Rice was a top-grade spiritual rice that was only grown in the emperor's gardens. The princes of Zhongzhou were unable to get the seeds, yet it was actually grown in Qingyi Fengtu.

The two believed that Qing Yi had never been to Diqiu, and would not have had the opportunity to obtain these dragon tooth rice seeds. They suspected that these were the seeds brought by Shen Huan, the second son of Shen Gong and the Taixue students who left Diqiu that year, and now they are in Qing Yi's hands.

Qing Yi noticed the confusion in the two people's eyes and quickly interrupted their random guesses: "I heard that Dragon Tooth Rice is only cultivated in the Emperor's Garden of Emperor Qiu, but I got this seed from a holy tree spirit."

It would definitely be correct to regard the wood spirit as a tree spirit, but Shen Buhai and Shen Bumie thought it was the blue and white tree spirit in Yunling, and their expressions suddenly showed enlightenment.

The lifespan of tree spirits is often more than thousands of years. At that time, the Great Shen Dynasty had not yet appeared, so it was normal for them to possess some seeds of ancient relics.

What's more, the other kinds of spiritual rice cultivated in the Dragon City's mounds are also extremely rare and precious categories. Any one of them is a treasure when taken to the princes of various countries in Zhongzhou.

Continuing forward along the flat road that was ten feet wide, the Zhongzhou coalition forces were more and more surprised the more they looked. Even the seemingly ordinary villages shocked them.

An old man in his seventies or eighties could easily fetch water from the river with a bucket weighing more than 200 kilograms in one hand. Slender girls could easily lift things weighing 700 to 800 kilograms, chatting and laughing without feeling any effort.

"Oh my god, are all the people in Dragon City so strong? Many old men, women, and young men have the strength of intermediate and advanced levels of physical training."

"What's the big deal about intermediate and advanced levels of body building? Look at that group of women over there, they seem to be lining up to practice martial arts. The lowest level is actually the ninth-grade warrior level, and many are at the eighth-grade warrior level."

"I heard that they are the female soldiers of Longcheng Fengtu. We thought we were the elite troops of Zhongzhou, but we didn't expect that they are not as good as the women of Yaqing's subjects. It's really embarrassing."

The corner of Qing Yi's mouth twitched. The female soldiers usually trained at the ranch, but now they ran to the avenue to train. It was obvious that they were deliberately showing off their Fengtu strength.

In addition, those old men who were fetching water, young girls and women who were working were obviously showing off. The villages all had dedicated drinking water facilities, so they didn't need to come here to fetch water. It was not the busy farming season yet, and there was no heavy physical work for young girls to do.

Qing Yi and everyone in Longcheng Fengtu knew it at a glance, but the soldiers of the Zhongzhou coalition were even more shocked. Fewer and fewer people spoke, and they looked at the people around them with more and more amazement, and acted more and more low-key.

This Dragon City, which is said to have been built less than half a year ago, has such terrifying strength. It is so powerful that tens of thousands of people can easily see it. What a powerful force it would be if they combined their forces.

However, as the team continued to move forward, a large group of busy children and girls in a field of spiritual potatoes along the way once again caught their attention.

Shen Buhai was surprised and asked, "Yaqing, why do these children collect the yellow leaves and petioles separately? Is this a way to increase the production of Lingshu?"

"Captain, don't be surprised. Spirit potato petioles are an important raw material for making spirit-patterned paper. It's all thanks to the children's spare-time collection that we have so much paper available.

The raw material problem can only be completely solved after the autumn harvest. At that time, after the spiritual rice and golden rice are harvested, they can be used for large-scale papermaking.

As for the spiritual potato leaves! These are used to feed rockworms. The spiritual worms that are raised are used to feed poultry raised in the earth."

Facing Qing Yi's explanation, Shen Buhai was even more surprised and asked, "Using the spiritual potato, which is considered a ninth-grade spiritual medicine, to cultivate spiritual insects to feed poultry? What kind of poultry is worthy of such feed?"

"Don't be surprised, captains. The poultry in our Dragon City are more than a dozen kinds of pheasants and fierce birds exchanged from the wild people of various tribes in Yunling. After raising spiritual insects, the eggs they lay are very delicious."

There was a hint of pride in Qing Yi's smile. Although the poultry he raised were traded from various tribes in Yunling through the White Crane Tribe, the Flying Bear Tribe, and other tribes, this new breeding model was his own idea.

Shen Buhai, Shen Bumie and others learned what had happened and found out that Qing Yi had collected a large number of eighth- and ninth-grade vicious birds, pheasants, as poultry in order to obtain eggs from the vicious birds. They looked at each other in confusion, not knowing how to comment.

In the end, Shen Bumie said with emotion: "Yaqing, this is the long-term plan. For more than 800 years, all the countries in Zhongzhou have relied on hunting to obtain food from exotic beasts and fierce birds.

Only the king, the emperor and a very small number of nobles are qualified to eat the eggs of vicious birds, but unexpectedly, this thing can actually be obtained through breeding.

Especially the promotion of the planting and breeding model of the entire Dragon City Fengtu, this is enough to rival the achievements of Shennong in the mythology. "

Tens of thousands of generals and soldiers of the Zhongzhou coalition forces were constantly surprised along the way. They thought they were completely numb to the shock of the new things in the Dragon City Fortress, but when they stood more than ten miles away from the Dragon City Fortress, they were stunned again.
