Hybrid Spiritual Plant Cultivation

Chapter 16 My Years as a Landlord

Chen Jing checked the woman's condition and confirmed that her life was not in danger. He then laid a cushion on her and sat down outside.

He waited until he heard some noise inside the house before going in.

"you're awake"

The woman was seen sitting sideways on a cushion, her clear eyes looking up and down at everything around her. She was no longer wearing the coarse linen clothes she had worn last time in disguise, but a light blue silk dress embroidered with two butterflies, as if she was a lost daughter of some family.

Seeing Chen Jing, she said, "It seems that I have come to the right place. I may need to borrow your place to stay temporarily to recuperate. Is that possible?"

"Row."

"Why did you agree so easily?"

"Because I can tell at first glance that the girl is a good person. Moreover, last night we worked together to rescue those innocent people and expose the evil plot of the mountain gang. Although the girl and I have never known each other's names and have never met each other before, I know that we are close friends who have known each other for a long time."

Chen Jing said seriously.

It’s definitely not because your cultivation is stronger than mine that I dare not offend you.

He ran away first, but this woman arrived at his home and lay down before him. If she was unhappy, he didn't dare to think about what would happen.

We need to figure out what kind of person this woman is.

"Let me introduce myself. Lu Zhishen is my nickname. My surname is Chen, my name is Jing, and my courtesy name is Yanzu."

"Ah."

The woman couldn't help but chuckle, then she tried to straighten her expression and said, "My last name is Hua Qingxia. You don't have to deliberately try to please me. I want you to know that although I am injured, I have no troubles and no enemies are chasing me. Secondly, if you don't want to, I can find another place to go. I don't have to trouble you. Finally, if you agree to let me stay for a while to heal my injuries, I can give you some rewards."

"Miss Xia, borrowing the land to heal your wounds is what I should do. I don't have to accept any reward. It's just that good people should be rewarded. I'm just going through the process, purely to maintain morality... So, Miss Hua, are you going to pay the spirit stones or the talismans and precious plants?"

of course.

No matter what price Hua Qingxia offered, Chen Jing would accept it. Although the other party was polite, one couldn't really assume that the other party was easy to get along with, at least one couldn't make a judgment now.

Go through the process.

Hua Qingxia thought for a moment and said, "I have nothing, so I can only teach you a few things. You can choose any one of the hundreds of arts you want to practice."

"what?"

Chen Jing was caught off guard.

Practicing a hundred arts is something that is monopolized by wealthy families and sects. It cannot be bought by the Merchant Alliance and cannot be found in the market. It can revitalize a family and is much more expensive than Yue Ningping!

He was not surprised, but felt a chill in his heart. What was the purpose of such a huge investment?

Train yourself to become a human elixir?
"Don't get me wrong. I'll teach you as long as you stay here. How much you can learn depends on your talent." As if she saw his hesitation, Hua Qingxia immediately added a sentence.

"Excuse me."

Chen Jing had no choice but to agree.

A scientific researcher who loves chicken feet once said that if God wants you to win, you can win even if you sleepwalk; if God wants you to lose, you will lose even if you try your best.

This statement is actually very general. In all rules that are not controlled by yourself, the best option is to obey the guidance of the rules and try to become the beneficiary of the rules.

"Is there anything you want to learn?"

"I want both."

"Now that you have opened the lower Dantian spiritual orifice, you are in urgent need of cultivation resources. When I came here, I saw that your family had a Moon Condensation Tree. I thought you were going to use it to exchange for Ninghua Pills. Do you know how many Ninghua Pills can be refined from one bottle of Ninghua with the alchemy technique?"

"Ten bottles?"

“Why daydream?”

Hua Qingxia couldn't help but roll her eyes and said unhappily, "Three bottles! One bottle of Condensation Pills can be used to refine three bottles of Condensation Pills!"

"hiss."

Although it was not as outrageous as his own guess, this ratio was still within the outrageous range. When Chen Jing thought about all these years, how many bottles of Ninghua had been exchanged for Ninghua Pills at half the price, he felt so heartbroken that he suffocated.

No wonder the wealthy families enjoy the best food and drink every day.

This five-fold net profit would make even the capitalists burst into tears.

However, compared with the landlord class, the capitalist class is indeed the representative of progress.

"Can I learn alchemy?" Chen Jing asked expectantly.

"Of course, but it's not possible now. To practice alchemy, one must open three orifices. The second spiritual orifice is in the middle dantian, where the primordial energy gathers. Otherwise, the spiritual power is insufficient to support alchemy. The third spiritual orifice is in the upper dantian, the Niwan Palace, which opens the spiritual roots of heaven and earth, cultivates spiritual consciousness, and has a keen insight.

If you want to learn alchemy, you still need to work hard to improve your cultivation!"

"Then Teacher Xia, how can I quickly improve my cultivation?" Chen Jing readily followed suit.

"Hmm..." Hua Qingxia was delighted and said calmly, "It just so happens that I have an unnamed secret method that can sense flowers, plants, and trees, and use the spirituality of plants to quickly increase cultivation. Practitioners only need to plant spiritual plants frequently. I will pass it on to you, and you swear not to pass it on to others."

"There is such an amazing secret method!"

Chen Jing's heart skipped a beat. How could there be such a good person who would send someone to the west? "Such a secret method must be very precious. Teacher Xia, I can't learn it."

"Why don't you learn?" Hua Qingxia opened her eyes slightly, her eyes revealing a bit of hostility: "This girl has traveled all over the world and never accepted favors for nothing. My teacher has always taught me that a drop of water should be repaid with a spring. If I don't repay, how can I be worthy of my teacher's teachings?"

"..." Chen Jing felt a chill down his spine. What else could he say? He gritted his teeth and nodded, "I didn't think it through. I'll learn it right away!"

"now it's right."

Hua Qingxia sat up straight and said, "Come, I'll teach you."

……

Teaching failed.

Hua Qingxia clenched her fists in pain and gritted her teeth, "Why don't you understand anything? Did you rely on figuring it out on your own to achieve enlightenment?!"

"if not……"

Chen Jing was also helpless.

It was not intentional to slack off, but I didn't understand eight out of ten sentences that Teacher Xia said, and I had to guess at the remaining two.

After all, he had never received any education in cultivating immortals here. How could the Chen family, a group of farmers who grew spiritual plants, have decent teaching materials on cultivating immortals?

"No wonder Master said that there might be extraordinary talents in the countryside. I even asked Master why he didn't accept those extraordinary talents..."

Hua Qingxia now understood the helplessness behind her master's sigh.

This is the appearance of the saint recorded in the Qing Nang Book.

As a result, she couldn't even add one plus one, which made her spiritual heart collapse.

"I'll think of a way. You don't need to learn this for now." Hua Qingxia had to give up temporarily and said, "During this period of time, if your family has condensed energies, you can give them to me to help you refine them and use them as rent."

"Ok."

"Don't tell anyone, including your family, that I'm here for now."

"Ok."

Chen Jing nodded, then asked, "Where should I sleep tonight?"

Hua Qingxia looked at him and said calmly, "I've paid for the room, so it's okay for me to sleep in the room, right?"

"No problem, I'll sleep outside."

"No need... just sleep on the floor."
