Hybrid Spiritual Plant Cultivation

Chapter 165 Diversified Development

"Look, these are my brothers."

There was a snap.

Major General Wei II slammed the letter on the table and turned around to sit back.

There was no expression of joy or anger on his face, but the temperature around him suddenly dropped.

in front of him.

There sat an old monk with long white eyebrows.

The old monk was wearing a brocade cassock, on which was embroidered a picture of a naked woman with a rosy face and an obscene look.

She had a large gold chain around her neck, with fist-sized gold beads carved into the shape of a human head with a sad face.

Holding a small knife in his hand, he slowly cut the meat.

He cut the raw meat into small pieces, put them into his mouth, and savored them with his eyes slightly lowered.

"This meat has a fresh taste, which is comparable to the clear meat."

He nodded, looking satisfied.

"Why don't you try it, Second Young Master?"

"Can't eat it!"

"Oh? This is a big deal."

The old monk put down the knife.

He stretched out his hand and opened the letter on the table.

He took a look and shook his head.

"It's originally a tool for inheritance, why should we get angry for the sake of clan affection?"

After practicing, the first three realms can still be considered human.

When one reaches the middle third realm, the Shenzang period begins. From a physiological structure perspective, practitioners are no longer normal human beings.

One of them is that they no longer have the ability to reproduce easily like normal humans. If they really want to reproduce, they are like monsters, carrying a baby for several years and giving birth to only one or two children in their lifetime, which will seriously damage their vitality.

The various noble families in Yunzhou choose to give birth to as many children as possible in the first three realms, and do not care about raising them after they are born. They only take them home to cultivate when they are needed or have good seedlings.

The bloodlines of the aristocratic families who were not chosen are no different from ordinary people. They are spread across the three classes and nine religions, and all walks of life.

It is conceivable that the family ties maintained in this way are very weak.

"Master Yu is a person outside the secular world, free from worries and naturally living a carefree life. I am in the same situation, but I cannot swallow this breath."

Young Master Wei's eyes were uncertain.

"Can I share your worries?"

The old monk smiled.

He was invited here to eat meat for no reason, so he definitely wasn't here to eat and not work.

"Master Yu, please go to Suizhou. The friend I met in Suizhou has never seen the treacherous tactics here, so Master Yu needs to be on guard."

"Easy to say, easy to say."

……

the other side.

After Chen Jing sent the letter to Young Master Wei, he did not sit idly by and wait for death.

The academy taught us how to protect spiritual plants from disasters.

Similar to cultivating spiritual plants, it also depends on the right time, right place and right people. The spiritual rain is a typical example, which changes the celestial phenomena and destroys the earth's veins.

Of course, this method is too advanced, and it is rare to see it being man-made, and most of them are formed naturally.

Then all that’s left is human harmony, which is human destruction.

"Insects, plague..."

There are spiritual plants, weeds, and diseases.

Chen Jing heard that the battlefield outside the domain was full of extraordinary epidemics. Not to mention mortals, even cultivators who were accidentally infected would have to wait for death.

He was not professional enough in this area and had no intention of solving it head-on. If he really was in trouble, he would go directly to his master to settle the matter.

All you can do now is try to avoid it.

Diseases and pests are often targeted. For example, something that can infect spiritual rice will most likely not be effective against spiritual fruit, and vice versa.

As for indiscriminate killing, they are often less concealed and just kill on first sight.

As long as you take precautions and check carefully, it will be difficult to fall into the trap.

After some thought, he decided to diversify his crops to reduce risks.

"It just so happens that this batch of spiritual rice has been harvested, and the spiritual fields are free. It is appropriate to start the second plan."

Chen Jingke did not forget that his plan for food, clothing, housing and transportation had not yet been fully implemented.

In terms of food, we have achieved self-sufficiency and have started to export.

Agricultural promotion offices were set up in all counties of Anning Prefecture, and the number of spiritual fields reached 300,000 acres. Both the spiritual fields and the spiritual plant cultivators were experiencing explosive growth.

With sufficient manpower and material resources, the estimated output of the last harvest in the second half of the year alone is about 3 billion jin, not counting the output that has been harvested now.

As for 'housing', as long as the channels are open and you have money, you will be able to do so, but you will not be able to be self-sufficient in the short term.

'OK', no idea for now.

So, what he aimed at was "clothes".

The silk cloth used in the monks' robes is much more valuable than spiritual rice. With so many spiritual plant monks on hand, it is just right to allocate a part of the production capacity to make up for this shortfall.

Chen Jing had been prepared for this. He had collected various spiritual mulberry trees, spiritual cotton trees, kapok trees, etc., planted them in the Floating World Record, lit up the illustrations, and waited for hybridization.

"First, let's have a piggy version."

[Snow Pattern Mulberry (2 stars)] + [Longevity Fruit (3 stars)] = [Long Snow Mulberry (2 stars)]

[Label 1: Cooling and reducing internal heat (green)]

[Tags 2-4: longevity, nutritious, health-preserving]

[Introduction: The silkworms that eat snow-patterned mulberry produce silk that has a natural cool feeling and a texture like snow. The silk woven from it has a wide range of uses and is loved by people... After being mixed with the longevity fruit, the medicinal and edible effects of its mulberry leaves and mulberries are greatly enhanced. After being used as feed for spiritual beasts, it can also effectively improve the quality of beast meat.]

"Uh……"

Chen Jing took a closer look.

The general idea is that it has no effect on the silk produced by the silkworms, but makes the mulberry leaves and mulberries themselves more delicious.

It can’t be said to be a failure, because we got very good feed raw materials, right?

He kept the archive and continued his experiments.

"At least one high yield is needed."

Chen Jingpeiyuan rice was hybridized mainly for the green yield-increasing effect of Peiyuan rice.

[Peking Snow Mulberry (two stars)]

[Tags: Cooling down and reducing internal heat, fruitful results]

【Introduction: The yield of mulberries has increased! 】

"Eh? What I want is to increase the leaf production!"

The much-anticipated increase in production failed miserably.

Chen Jing had an idea and hybridized the spiritual leek into it.

Then the label introduction prompts.

No spiritual silkworm will eat this stuff, no!
"Okay, okay, then let my three-dynasty veteran, Ling Fuping, come!"

This time, Chen Jing hybridized Ling Fu duckweed into it and got the green label "rapid reproduction".

After a closer look, something is still wrong.

Rapid reproduction means the whole plant reproduces rapidly, not just the leaves. That doesn't make sense.

After some experiments, we encountered some setbacks in increasing production.

Chen Jing reflected on himself.

"Most of my spiritual fields are currently used to grow Peiyuan Rice Queen. Peiyuan Rice Queen is positioned to make small profits but quick turnover, and large quantities are sufficient to satisfy customers. However, it is impossible to plant many fields for this mulberry tree like Peiyuan Rice, so we should start with high-end products."

A fourth-grade spiritual plant is definitely out of the question, and a third-grade one is a bit eye-catching.

But think about it another way.

If we 'downgrade' the high-grade spiritual plants to the second grade, wouldn't that be the end of it?
For example, using first-grade spiritual plants as the main body and then hybridizing high-grade spiritual plants into them, although this will sacrifice most of the benefits of high-grade spiritual plants, it can also make low-grade spiritual plants become the king of the novice village.

Peiyuan Rice Queen is a successful precedent.

The change of thinking immediately gave me a direction.

Chen Jing took out the music stick.

The twin sisters Shasha and Miaomiao, who joined the school at the same time, joined Nishang Peak, which focuses on weaving.

He had previously ordered a batch of custom robes, and happened to have these two as references.

"It's a good opportunity to reminisce about the past."

……

The Taoism Palace. One of the eight main halls, the Weaving Hall.

Completely different from other major courses, there are basically only female monks here, just like the Forge Hall next door, there are only male monks there.

"Once you master the fish pattern needle technique, you will move on to the double fish needle technique. Watch my movements carefully."

On the podium.

An old woman who still had a hint of her past elegance was seen, with golden threads flickering on her fingertips. The golden threads were as agile as swimming fish, shuttling back and forth on the cloth, drawing the shape of a fish.

"To achieve success in weaving, one must also have a thorough understanding of the art of talisman arrays. The so-called needlework is to draw the talisman array on silk with needle and thread, and then cut it to make a robe... The Pisces needlework is equivalent to the spirit gathering array in the talisman array. The spirit gathering talisman must not be sloppy."

After the old woman finished her exercise, she signaled everyone to practice on their own.

suddenly.

A female cultivator who was listening to the class showed something strange and took out a musical instrument from her bosom.

"Huh? It's Chen Jing, he's looking for me!"

"Looking for us?"

"Find me!"

The two sisters quarreled, glanced around, and quietly retreated to a secluded place to answer the message.

After listening for a while, Sasha started to make excited humming sounds, which made Miaomiao anxious.

"Sister, what did you say?"

"Ask me out!"

"What, you want us to go out and play?"

Miaomiao was overjoyed.

"What? Ask us to hang out together?!"

Sasha was about to retort that she was making an appointment with me alone.

When I turned around, I saw that half of the senior sisters in the hall had come over, their eyes seemed to be staring at a little white rabbit.

"Yes...it's a date with me."

She retorted weakly and was carried away the next moment.

"Let's go, we are sisters and we are going together. I will change my clothes first."

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, let me touch up my makeup!"

"Hurry up, do I look better in this black dress or this white dress..."

In a blink of an eye, the girls started to dress up with laughter.

Sasha glared at her sister angrily.

"It's all your fault. You were too loud."

"Nonsense, that's not the case!"

Miaomiao was also very unwilling.

In the blink of an eye.

The weaving hall, which was bustling just now, now only had one person sitting there.

Elder Yu, who was giving the lecture, looked at the girls saying goodbye to her and just nodded with a smile.

She was relatively free and stayed in the weaving hall every day. She had repeated the lessons several times.

They are not yet at the stage to get involved with more advanced things, so the rest is just slow work and there is no need to keep focusing on this.

Elder Yu saw that there was still a disciple sitting there, so he stepped forward and asked.

"Qin Mu? Why don't you go? It'll be nice to join in the fun and relieve your boredom."

"I...I'm not going. I want to practice some more magic."

Qin Mu lowered his head.

Seeing the girl looking aggrieved, Elder Yu looked at her with pity.

Take out a jade tube from the storage tool.

"Then help me send something to Chen Zhen. He asked about a mulberry seed last time. I told him I would find it for him, but I forgot to send it to him."

"what?"

Qin Mu looked surprised.

……

Chen Jing stood outside the market town of Miaohe Sect waiting. After waiting for a while, he saw Shasha and Miaomiao jumping off the small paper cranes and trotting towards him.

Her fluttering skirt and hair swayed up and down as she ran, and her rosy face looked much rounder than the last time I saw her.

It can be seen that the food and appetite are good.

"Senior Brother Chen!"

"Stop talking and run!"

As soon as they arrived beside him, the two sisters, one on the left and one on the right, pulled the dazed Chen Jing and ran into the market.

He imagined all kinds of drama in his mind in an instant.

Is it a spy from the Fengtian Sect who is here to assassinate me?
Or do these two have some hidden identities? No, most likely there is a strong suitor who wants to make him his Arrow Brother...

No, you can't be a shield.

Chen Jing stopped immediately and said righteously.

"What the hell, pulling and tugging, I... F*ck."

"Chen Jing is over there!"

"Don't run!"

"Sisters, catch the junior brother who made the plant war!"

Suddenly, a group of beautifully dressed female cultivators descended from the sky, locked onto Chen Jing's position, and rushed over.

Chen Jing reacted quickly. He pulled the two sisters and accelerated, disappearing into obscurity.

A chase in the market town.

After getting rid of everyone, he asked with lingering fear: "What is going on?"

"I'm sorry, Brother Chen..."

After the two of them explained.

Chen Jing only then realized that he had a very high reputation in Nishang Peak, and Shasha and Miaomiao also contributed partly to this.

When we get along with each other on a daily basis, we can’t help but show off our friendship to each other.

It's probably like this: You're talking about Lao Ma, I'll introduce you to him later, don't worry, I know him well, we're life-long friends...something like that.

After some exaggeration and artistic processing, his image has become weird.

“You guys, forget it…”

At other times, he would be angry.

but.

Chen Jing had to admit that as a layman, he was somewhat touched in the soft spot, and he was not that angry in his heart.

"Next time, treat your senior sisters to a good meal, but don't talk nonsense anymore."

"Brother, we were wrong!"

"Brother, you are so kind!"

"Let's not waste time on small talk." Chen Jing became serious and got down to business. "Let me test you. What is the best-selling silk on the market right now? And what is the most popular silk?"

"what?"

……

After some research.

Chen Jing also verified the information he had heard from the perspective of some industry insiders.

The mainstream weaving product on the market at present is the second-grade snow-patterned silk.

There is also a superior substitute for Snow Silk, the fourth-grade premium silk Ice Soul Silk, which is a true top-grade product for magic robes and the favorite of fairies.

Bingpo Silk needs to feed the spiritual silkworms with mulberry leaves of the 'Extreme Flame Mulberry'.

As the name suggests, it is a fourth-grade spiritual plant that grows in high-temperature areas. There is no volcanic terrain in Suizhou, so every Ji Yan Mulberry is carefully cultivated within a cave and in a formation.

Mulberry leaves grown in an extremely yang environment, when fed to the spiritual silkworms, produce icy silk that is far more chilling than snow silk, which implicitly conforms to the wonder of yin and yang.

The robe made of ice soul silk comes with a third-grade meditation spell, which greatly reduces the interference of inner demons and can maintain the sharpness of the mind, making it more efficient to practice spells.

Similarly, Ice Soul Silk can be used in conjunction with a needle technique called "Snow Phoenix Piercing" to amplify the vision, giving it an additional image of an ice phoenix. It can be said to be both beautiful and functional.

In the Qingnang Sect, if you wear a dress made of ice soul silk, you will definitely become the most handsome person in the entire sect.

Chen Jing inquired about many kinds of spiritual silkworms and finally selected these two to start with.

"It's time to lower the price of Ice Soul Silk..."
