From a carp to a dragon god

Chapter 236: Grass and the Island Protection Formation

In a ceremony to worship Dang Kang, the biggest beneficiaries are actually the sand pigs. This group of sand pigs have been enlightened by Dang Kang's scattered spirit.

To put it simply, when Kang took them in as his divine favor, the sand pigs were freed from the suppression of the laws of spiritual beasts, and thus became intelligent and even transformed into spirits and demons.

Thinking of this, Yu Shuyang couldn't help but smack his lips. Now he also holds a divine position, but his five hundred earth pig spirit beasts just belonged to Dang Kang for no reason.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally gave up. A god can only recruit three followers at most, and he doesn't even look down on the small earth-attributed spirit beasts.

Moreover, when a sand pig becomes intelligent, he will come over and give it its real name as soon as possible. Not only will he take it as a servant, but he will also make it work for him to pay off its debt.

After all, the two groups of spiritual beasts, the sand pigs and the blue rock sheep, are fixed assets of Hushan Island. Since the sand pigs have become Dang Kang's relatives, the 100,000 acres of spiritual fields reclaimed by the three brothers of the Yao family will be allowed to be cultivated in the future.

After thinking this through, Yu Shuyang felt much better. He just regarded himself as a potential tenant, which solved the problem that the golden bees were not suitable for farming.

Then he went to the dam and looked at the five hundred blue rock sheep, but he still couldn't bring himself to kill them. The Tai Sui Dragon God was in charge of fortune, misfortune, and years, which was too different from the Earth Spirit Sheep.

Speaking of which, the five hundred Zhi cows in the Zhi field can be transformed into Tai Sui meat Zhi, which is in line with the principles of blessing and misfortune. The other animals are bats and Nian pigs.

Yu Shuyang thought for a moment but did not start to enlighten them. Firstly, he was not really in need of relatives. Secondly, the 50,000 acres of Zhitian were handed over to Zhixian Tuliu to take care of, so he had to rely on Zhiniu and Zhima for help.

Last but not least, he had just refined the Divine Eye, and all the incense and money he had spent had long been used up. It was beyond his ability to disperse his spirit and enlighten five hundred Zhiniu.

The power of a Shinto official depends entirely on the reputation and belief of Shinto, which ultimately comes down to the size of the temple, the number of believers, and the amount of incense remaining in the altar.

If one wants to enhance the power of Shintoism, one must build temples, preach, and collect incense. This is more troublesome than practicing, and it is not easy to spread in the East China Sea.

The four seas are all the temples of the Dragon King. If you want to preach and build a temple in the sea, you must obtain the consent of the Dragon Palace in the sea.

As for the temples in the East China Sea, in addition to the Oriental God of Wealth Temple and the Money Temple, there is also a Goods Temple under construction.

From this we can see that in the vast East China Sea, there are only three in total, and they are all gods of money.

As the old saying goes: Money can make anything possible, and this is absolutely true.

Yu Shuyang called Zhixian Tuliu over. It was almost a month since they moved to Hushan Island last year.

After three relocations, Zhitian's geothermal energy was damaged. Now it is enjoying fertile soil and fertile land. Earlier, there were sand pigs eating soil and spraying sand. Now it has not only recovered to its original state, but even far exceeded the past.

"When do you think we can pick these Ganoderma lucidum?" Yu Shuyang asked, looking at the Ganoderma lucidum all over the ground.

“Master, it was originally supposed to be around the 10th of next month, but now the earth’s energy has increased tenfold, and we’ve received the blessing of a good harvest.

Around the 15th and 16th of January, Xiao Yao estimated that 30,000 kilograms of grass could be harvested from 200 acres.

Let's not pick them all this time, we can keep half and see if we can grow a good medicinal herb." Tu Liu said this and waited for Yu Shuyang's reply.

Yu Shuyang estimated in his mind that the noodle shop was urgently waiting for Zhicao, so Yu Mu sent him flying talismans twice, and Wuzhi steamed bun fish was sold well in the five islands and eight cities.

The fish mother planned to return to Yatou Mountain to build a steamed bun shop, specializing in the production of Wuzhi steamed bun fish, so that she could borrow the spider spirit from Wuhui Cave.

It is estimated that in the future, 10,000 to 20,000 kilograms of Zhicao will be consumed every day. This thing can greatly replenish qi and blood, and can also increase strength. All workshops that do manual labor will order steamed fish from Yu Mu.

Two hundred acres yield thirty thousand catties, and fifty thousand acres yields seven and a half million catties. Half of this is left for cultivating medicinal herbs, one million catties is given to the steamed bun shop, and five hundred thousand catties is given to the noodle shop, so there is still one and a half million catties left.

"I'll leave four million kilograms for you to cultivate spiritual medicine. We've agreed that ordinary grass can only grow for a year at most. If it doesn't reach the highest quality after that time, you have to pick it.

Also, the sand pigs were enlightened by Dang Kang San Ling, so you should pay more attention to them. If any of them become intelligent, give them real names as soon as possible.

I've thought about it, and I'll let them use Sha as their surname. You can choose their names, and I'll leave it to you to take care of them in the future, helping them grow the grass and so on.

When there are more sand pigs, tell me and I will cast a spell to convert 500 Zhiniu so that the Zhitian will not be short of manpower.

Yu Shuyang handed over the tasks, and considering that he might not be on Hushan Island all the time, he handed over the task of giving the sand pigs their real names to Tuliu.

Tu Liu was also very satisfied. In order to practice the Purple Ganoderma Five Elements Escape, he needed to sacrifice and refine fifty-five magic talismans. Now he didn't even have half of them, and it was really difficult to take care of the fifty thousand acres of Ganoderma fields.

In the past, they had the tea tree spirit Yunhua to help, but now Yunhua also has 5,000 acres of tea gardens and 5,000 acres of flower fields to take care of, and the two little demons are unable to take care of themselves.

"Master, yesterday Jinhu sent over ten bee monsters with the Wood Fate. They are not suitable for being Spirit Plant Husbands at all, and now they can only reluctantly take care of Jinzhi.

"Why don't we let them go to the flower fields? I heard from Sister Yunhua that she's almost reached a critical point in her cultivation and might break through to the ninth rank in the next two months." Tu Liu said with anticipation.

Yu Shuyang was stunned by what he said. The tea tree spirit Yunhua was practicing blood inheritance, and he usually didn't ask about Yunhua's practice progress.

"Just make the decision on this kind of small matter. Don't ask me again. Speaking of which, you should hurry up on your cultivation. Your younger sister is about to break through to the ninth level.

Do you have any difficulties in your cultivation? You, Yunhua, and the three boys of the Wan family, you have the highest aptitude, but you should not be surpassed by them too much."

Yu Shuyang couldn't help but ask with concern. The Candle Fire Spirit Wanjia was nourishing the fire cave in Yatou Mountain and had already broken through the ninth level and gathered the four fire quail Dharma images.

Now that the Tea Tree Spirit Yunhua was about to break through, he couldn't help but wonder if deducing the technique was too troublesome. After all, there were fifty-five magic talismans.

"To answer the Master, cultivation is not difficult. I am just refining the talismans step by step. I have calculated the time.

The talisman can be refined by the end of this year at the latest. However, I still cannot fully comprehend the five elements, five colors of Ganoderma lucidum and the five elements of underground escape.

I was thinking, could the Master give me the Five-Zhi Yaocao Sword? I have collected a lot of Five-Zhi Yaocao evil spirits these days, which is just right for me to meditate on and refine at the same time.

After all, I am still a sword-wielding boy, right? Tu Liu said sincerely. He and Yun Hua were both trained to hold swords.

Yunhua practiced his clan's method and was not affected. Tu Liu's practice foundation was the five elements of the five-color rotation of the five elements, which was in line with the Five-Color Yaocao Sword.

Yu Shuyang nodded after hearing this, and then took out the Wuzhiyaocao sword. Now that he had obtained a set of Saoxia fairy clothes, he no longer needed this sword to protect himself all the time.

Especially the Liang Yi Killing Sword Art. Now with the Taoist weapon Yin Yang True Shape Fan, Liang Yi Qing Yang can perform it, and the two magic swords are not so important.

"This sword is now given to you to refine. It contains not only five kinds of Zhi and six kinds of colors, but also Yaocao. When you refine it, you can ask Xun Yunhua for help.

You must practice hard and break through as soon as possible. Soon, Hushan Island will be handed over to you for management. You must make sure to find out the real name of the Sand Pig.

In the near future, the Dongyi people will use elephant farming methods to open up another 100,000 mu of spiritual fields, and by then we will have to keep up with the manpower."

Yu Shuyang gave a few instructions, saying that he couldn't stay on Hushan Island forever, and that after the incident with the White Crow Ghost Immortal was over, he would go to the Qingqiu Islands to find Yin Chenzi to learn alchemy.

Although the Golden Bee Clan was handy, they were still a level below the norm. Only Zhixian Tu Liu was qualified to manage all matters on the island. Upon hearing this news, Tu Liu was completely bewildered. He had never considered this before, and his face turned bitter.

"Master, I can't do this. I have no experience."

Yu Shuyang smiled nonchalantly and said, "What's the point of having experience? There are only so many fields on the island. Plant them well and harvest them when they are ripe.

And we have the bee demon Jinhu and the tea tree spirit Yunhua. With them helping you, what are you worried about? Besides, there are still a month or two left. You can slowly get the hang of it.

When Tu Liu heard that there was only one or two months left, he became a little panicked, but he also understood that he was the only one who could take charge of the island.

"Master, if you leave, this island will not be safe without any protection. Jin Hu, Yun Hua and I are not strong enough in cultivation." Tu Liu reminded worriedly.

After hearing this, Yu Shuyang also felt that it made sense. Apart from anything else, he had to find a way to stop the wandering ghosts in the desolate sea.

Moreover, there is a Cao Gu Po who releases ghost poison on the neighboring Hongchi Island. It seems that we need to find a way to arrange a large formation to protect the island.

"Your reminder is very timely. I will go back and make arrangements." After saying this, Yu Shuyang turned around and went back to Jishuitan.

He could only discuss this matter with his junior brother Li Taiping. It was not easy to set up a formation to block ghosts and monsters. Last time he wanted to build an altar for the soul-guiding banner, it failed.

Anyway, it is not okay to involve the underworld gods, as it will attract the hatred and fear of the heavenly way. Yu Shuyang also felt a headache when thinking about this.

Junior fellow apprentice Li Taiping was soaking in the pool of water. Yu Shuyang, feeling a little embarrassed, came to the shore to inquire about the arrangement of the formation.

Li Taiping poked out a huge bull's head from the water. He seemed to be swollen by water, and his bull's head had grown three or four times larger.

"Brother, didn't you just refine a treasure fan? Using the treasure fan as a talisman, you can refine a flag gate formation.

Or, you can follow the Wind and Cloud Method and use half of the water hole in the Black Lotus Pond as a talisman to create a cloud and mist formation to cover it up."

Li Taiping added another reminder after he finished speaking: "Actually, you don't have to worry too much, Senior Brother. Turtle Immortal Fu Yangzi will be here in a few days.

By then, he will be in charge of Hushan Island, so you can go to Qingqiu to learn alchemy without worry and wait for me to overcome the tribulation of cultivation.

Refining a scroll of the Big Dipper map as a talisman, and setting up a Big Dipper Seven Killing Formation on Turtle Mountain Island can also protect this place."

Yu Shuyang nodded and said, "Junior brother, you are right. Let's wait for Fu Yangzi. There is no need to rush to form the formation."

There was indeed no rush for this matter. He could slowly figure out the formation. Among the several suggestions made by his junior brother just now, using the water from the Mohe Pond as a talisman was the most appropriate.

Thinking of this, he put his magical powers of cloud-generated yin and yang and wind-gathering and -dispersing power into the Black Tortoise Book, and deduced the cloud and mist formation that used the water eye as a talisman.

He knew nothing about formations and could only rely on the Black Tortoise Book to deduce. Without a formation diagram, he couldn't deduce it. This was different from the deduction of martial arts.

Fortunately, he could dream of the Huangliang Taoist Palace at night. There were books and techniques in the library. He first went to the free techniques section to find some basic books on formations.

The library is divided into two rooms, the inner room, like the examination room, also has three jade walls, but the paulownia tree inside is the same, named the Jade Book Paulownia Tree, which is the spiritual root of the four elements of gold, wood, water and earth.

Yu Shuyang had his own Black Tortoise Book for deduction, so he didn't need to spend his Taoist energy to buy the formation from the Jade Book Wutong Tree. He just browsed through the free formation books.

The free books are placed in the outer library and are managed by three Taoist priests similar to Qian Yinzi. One is responsible for registering the names of borrowed books, and the other is responsible for copying scriptures and organizing books.

The last and most powerful one is the Grand Master of the Taoist Alliance. He is responsible for arranging scripture teachers for the new Taoists who join the alliance. He is also responsible for testing the Taoists' cultivation of mind and character, and for annotating the Taoist scriptures and exercises to see if they are qualified.

Yu Shuyang did not see the great master. It was said that he went to the second hall to take charge. He has not been to the second hall yet.

A few days ago, Fuchenzi accompanied me to visit the Taoist Palace and only mentioned it once, saying that the second hall was the temple of the Taoist Alliance's founder who passed on the Dharma.

He didn't care about this. The only trouble was that the great wizard was not there, so the books could not be borrowed and could only be read in the library.

Yu Shuyang had just joined the Taoist Alliance and had not yet followed a master to study the Dharma. His Taoist certificate had not yet been issued, so he naturally could not register to borrow books.

For several nights in a row, he entered his dreams on time and went to Huangliang Taoist Palace. Fortunately, the basic knowledge of formations was no longer difficult for him.

No matter what method is used to arrange the formation and cast the spell, it is nothing more than three fundamentals, namely heaven, earth and man.

Heaven refers to the laws of nature, such as yin and yang, the four images and five elements, the six harmonies and seven stars, and the eight trigrams and nine palaces.

The land refers to the laws of land fortune, such as the three mountains and five peaks, the five lakes and four seas, the rivers and valleys, and the front and back of the mountains and houses.

Human beings are the will of the human spirit, such as the feng shui of homes, cemeteries, cities, fortresses, military camps and battlefields.

Yu Shuyang glanced over the three of them briefly, focusing on the Heavenly Dao Formation. He was most familiar with the Heavenly Dao Laws, so he read on to see how to set up and refine the formation.

There are also many kinds of methods. The simpler ones are like burying five stones to set up a door control formation. This is a kind of forbidden method to suppress objects and is the simplest to set up.

In addition to these, there are also talisman formations, flag gate formations, maze formations, and killing formations. The arrangement methods are also different. Some use talisman diagrams to arrange the formation, while others use formation tools to arrange the formation.

The many formation tools are also different, including flags, streamers, swords, knives, mirrors and seals.

Finally, there is a method of using living creatures as a formation. For example, Taoist soldiers are trained using this method, such as fire crow soldiers and fire dragon soldiers.

Of course, you can also make use of plants and trees, and use the terrain to arrange a maze, just like the Beidou Shuangzangtu arranged by Li Taiping, which was arranged into a formation with the help of purple bamboo forests and misty tea trees.

Yu Shuyang was also quite enlightened. Although the free books were basic, they were just right for his reading level.

That day he was measuring the Tiger Mountain Road and setting up a large formation to protect the island. It had to be arranged according to the topography of the island and could not simply rely on a water hole as a talisman.

You also have to refine Feng Shui tools to lead the clouds and mist emitted from the water eye to the outside of the island, and it must not affect the normal life on the island and the growth of spiritual plants.

Yu Shuyang was taking notes with a piece of paper in one hand and a pen in the other when he saw the bee demon Jinfeng flying towards him, looking quite anxious.

"Mountain Master, Mr. Zhu from the second branch of the Zhu family has arrived, accompanied by a dozen little spider spirits.

They're probably here to build a water silk spider factory. Why don't you go take a look? They just got off the boat on the west coast."
