Spirit cultivation and immortality, how do you control an aircraft carrier?

Chief Guard He was also worried that Shen Huang would force Na Hongfei to come and apologize in person.

If this were to happen, it would undoubtedly be a huge humiliation for Hongfei.

Although Hongfei's protective spirit was destroyed, he was still a former protector. If he really went to such lengths, he might sneak into Shen Huang's house in the middle of the night or ambush him in the gray fog. At that time, they would either kill or drive him away directly, or protect Shen Huang at all times.

Either way, it's troublesome, and if it gets out of hand, it will have a significant impact on the Lord's reputation.

Spirit Masters are not mortals who can be humiliated at will; doing so would inevitably enrage many people.

Fortunately, Shen Huang seemed to be planning to accept the compensation, and immediately, Chief Guard He waved to those people.

Several people walked up shakily, then knelt down with a thud, bringing with them more than twenty bags, each about the size of a palm, to Shen Huang.

"This is......"

Shen Huang had already sensed that the contents of this container were entirely rice.

That's right, the rice we often see in this town is crystal clear and quite plump.

In this town, it is not uncommon to see newly arrived villagers and disaster victims working for the original villagers, earning only a few dozen grains in exchange for a whole day from morning till night.

"This is spirit rice." Guard Captain He already knew Shen Huang's background, so he wasn't surprised that Shen Huang didn't recognize it. "This kind of spirit rice is different from ordinary mortals. It contains spiritual energy, and its spiritual energy is condensed and does not dissipate, making it easier to refine. Ordinary people only need to eat about twenty grains to barely meet their daily needs, and a hundred grains can fill their stomachs. Even for us Spirit Masters, one bag is enough for an ordinary cultivator at the first level of the Mortal Transformation stage to use for ten days."

Lingmi!

Although he had already guessed it, Shen Huang's heart still skipped a beat when it was finally confirmed.

The original jade slip, when explaining basic information related to cultivating immortality, also frequently mentioned "objects of the immortals".

Clearly, even if cultivators are transformed into spirit masters, they still need resources for cultivation.

And this spirit rice is probably one of them, and it's a fairly basic one at that.

However, even if it is basic, it is still a rare resource that Shen Huang has never encountered before.

He himself was still just a mortal.

Moreover, Chief Guard He has made it very clear that an ordinary person only needs a hundred grains to be full for a day.

How many are in a hundred grains?

Even though this rice looks slightly larger than the rice on our home planet, it's still within the normal range.

Even a casual grab would likely yield far more than that.

There are at least 10,000 grains in one bag!

These twenty-odd bags are enough for an ordinary Spirit Master who has just reached the first level of Transcendent Realm to cultivate for more than half a year.

Although Shen Huang was not entirely clear about the value of this thing, considering that an ordinary person could only get a few dozen as payment after a day's hard work, it was probably indeed quite valuable.

Chief Guard He also said that the apology was quite generous, which was probably true.

Shen Huang looked at the group of thugs who had their heads buried in the ground, trembling and unable to utter a single word, as if they were closing their eyes and waiting to die. He didn't reveal his thoughts at all, and simply said casually, "Sounds pretty good, then so be it."

After saying that, as if he had thought of something, he grabbed a few bags and stuffed them into Guard He's arms, and said with a smile, "Last time, I was really grateful to you for helping me out of a predicament and informing the township head. Otherwise, I would not only be unable to receive the township head's courtesy, but I'm afraid even language would be a big problem."

"How could I possibly accept that?"

Chief Guard He seemed startled and quickly waved his hand to refuse.

Don't underestimate these few bags of spirit rice. This stuff can only be grown in the entire Shelter, at the township head's residence, and it requires a significant amount of spiritual energy to grow. Its value is evident from this.

It can even be used as a currency in large towns!

However, Shen Huang's attitude was firm, and after several refusals from the head guard He, he finally accepted it.

Over the past few days, the think tank members on the home planet have not only profiled the township head alone.

This also includes several other important figures in the village.

Chief Guard He was naturally among them.

According to the profilers' analysis, this Guard Chief He is calm, conscientious, and values ​​order. He has established considerable prestige among all the guards and even most of the villagers. Moreover, he is grateful to his superiors and compassionate to his inferiors. His moral character is rare in this other world. Building a good relationship with him can bring considerable benefits when one is weak.

They even planned out how to build a good relationship.

The core idea is "to bestow favors".

It worked as expected. Even though he only took a few bags of spirit rice, the guard captain seemed quite grateful.

He even suggested, "Why don't I take these bags of spirit rice back with me, eat them first, and carefully check them to see if they have been contaminated with evil energy? This kind of spirit rice is most easily contaminated with evil energy. It won't harm spirit masters, but it will be quite harmful to those who do not yet possess spirit objects... After all, these spirit rice were given to us by Hong Fei, so it's better to be safe."

"I see, then thank you very much." Shen Huang was slightly surprised.

It wasn't because of the spirit rice. He certainly wouldn't use something that enters the body casually; he would definitely bring it back to his home planet for multiple tests.

Shen Huang was surprised by Chief He's reaction.

In such a world, there truly are people who are so grateful.

Upon seeing that Shen Huang agreed, He Ye immediately took the bags of spirit rice and left.

Shen Huang casually picked up the rest and was about to return to the house when he noticed some people cautiously approaching. When they were still more than ten meters away, they knelt down with a thud.

"We are all villagers who fled from nearby villages. We are willing to serve you, sir, and hope that you will take us in."

More and more people gathered around, doing similar things and saying similar things. Although they were all thin and bony, they were of normal height and had all their limbs intact. Those with obvious disabilities did not dare to step forward.

For a moment, the various sounds made the place somewhat noisy.

Shen Huang understood that these people probably came forward because they saw the respect that Chief Guard He Ye showed him, and because Hong Fei had personally sent people to deliver such a generous apology gift, with so much spirit rice in hand.

However, now is not the time.

Shen Huang raised an eyebrow and, facing these hungry, exhausted villagers who were only seeking a way to survive, said in a deep voice, "I am currently just an ordinary person with no place to shelter me. How can I take in the villagers? If you are truly sincere, you can wait for the future. Now leave quickly and do not make a fuss here."

Although he still felt some sympathy and pity, Shen Huang knew that such sympathy was unacceptable before he had a firm foothold in the world.
