The years when I explored the fairyland.

Chapter 151 148: Spiritual Plant Husband, Purple Bamboo Rice
There is no doubt that the "shelter fee" that Zhou Wu offered to Hao Songqing and his third son Zhuang Chaofeng was excessively generous, so generous that no one could take their eyes off it.

But you want to say that Chu Zhou agreed for these benefits?

It seems not to be the case!

But you want to say that you sympathize with Zhou Wu? Do you think he is a good person?

That's a joke too!

Zhou Wu does not need anyone's sympathy. What he did had a wide impact and caused countless deaths and injuries. He does not deserve sympathy.

However, Chu Zhou felt that if he were in his position and became Zhou Wu, it would be hard to say whether he could do better than him.

That's not right. He has the "Fairyland" in his hands. As long as he doesn't stop, one day he will be able to do whatever he wants.

It was just two people he was protecting, and he felt he could still do it.

Of course, this can also be done, but it cannot be said, nor can it be known to outsiders, so Fan Zhong found a side courtyard in Xuanzhen Temple and let Hao Songqing live there.

Chu Zhou did not restrict Hao Songqing's movements. He could go out at any time. However, after Hao Songqing entered the courtyard, he did not leave.

Almost three meals a day were delivered by Fan Zhong himself.

Of course, Hao Songqing did not give up on himself, nor did he contact Zhou Wu’s third son Zhuang Chaofeng. Instead, after resting for two days, he went directly to find Fan Zhong.

He customized various special tools and requested dozens of materials, including viper blood and some rare and uncommon medicinal materials.

Obviously, he wanted to make 'Calming and Soul-soothing Incense'!
Fan Zhong naturally knew how much Chu Zhou valued this rare fragrance, so he helped arrange for craftsmen to make tools and dispatch materials, while also reporting the matter to Chu Zhou.

Chu Zhou was also somewhat curious, so he ran over and saw Hao Songqing processing various raw materials.

The selection, drying, processing, grinding, mixing and fermentation of each raw material...

I have to admit that after just looking at it for a moment, Chu Zhou recognized this 'Calming and Soul-Calming Incense'. The production process was so complicated that he had never seen it before in his life.

What Chu Zhou didn't expect was that Hao Songqing asked Chu Zhou to send someone over, and he was willing to teach him this craft step by step.

Besides, it would be inappropriate to take the secret vault on Yunya Mountain now. Ba Zong is still there and it is not safe either.

But he has already written about the various trade routes and relationships of Wenxiang Temple.

These are not things that can exist for long, so it is best to take over in a short period of time and strengthen maintenance.

Chu Zhou looked at the information and then at Hao Songqing, and had to admit that he had to protect this person, no matter who came.

However, he did not handle it personally, but handed the information to Fan Zhong, asking Fan Zhong to make specific arrangements and coordinate with Hao Songqing.

In fact, in Chu Zhou's opinion, compared with the conditions on the surface, he thinks Hao Songqing himself is more valuable.

Fan Zhong's contact with him was not just about taking over various channels, but also a process of learning and growth.

He actually knew Chu Zhou's thoughts, and most of the time, he liked to consult Hao Songqing on various matters.

Hao Songqing was also generous in his guidance, and it can be said that he told him everything he knew.

The two of them get along quite well!
As for the method of making the 'Calming and Soul-Calming Incense', one must of course learn it, and only when one holds it in one's hands can one feel at peace.

Chu Zhou thought for a long time and felt that there were only four fellow apprentices who were suitable at this stage.

They understand the specific situation and are not afraid of the news leaking out.

But who should go?

Chu Zhou was a little unsure, so he called all four of them over and asked them what they thought.

In the end, it was Xu Cheng who took on the task.

Chu Zhou actually didn't want him to go because medicine and alchemy had already consumed most of his energy.

As the 'Second Brother', his current cultivation is obviously the weakest, but he cannot help but be interested in these things.

So, since he was willing, Chu Zhou did not stop him.

After everything was arranged, Chu Zhou also took the opportunity to observe Zhuang Chaofeng and learn more about this dealer.

The Zhuang family is not a big family. Their ancestors made a living by running a restaurant. They have several famous dishes passed down from generation to generation and are quite famous in Anyue City.

However, in this generation, although the couple had a very good relationship, they only had one child, Zhuang Chaofeng.

As for love, there is no lack of it, but the Zhuang family has strict family education, and arrangements for literacy and other things were made early on.

Therefore, when Zhuang Chaofeng arrived at Xuanzhen Temple, although he was only twelve years old, he could read and write and had good physical fitness, so he was naturally selected.

Today, he is only fourteen years old, but he has already made a name for himself in Xuanzhen Temple.

Wherever there are people, there will be cliques and factions, even these little guys are like that.

The remaining 520 outer disciples were divided into dozens of small teams of varying sizes.

Some are grouped together, some join different halls, and some are just strong, good at dealing with people, or have leadership qualities, which naturally attracts some people.

Although Zhuang Chaofeng is Zhou Wu's biological son, he grew up in the Zhuang family and is not lacking in love. He is cheerful and generous, helpful, and has some of his father's tactfulness.

Therefore, he is also a leader in his small group, and more than a dozen people in the same group like to revolve around him.

He is a bit cocky, always showing off his muscles and bragging to others. He always says that when I go home, I guarantee that I can make young girls drool. His personality is nothing like his biological father, but he is full of youthful vigor and vitality.

Chu Zhou likes it very much!

Nonsense, how could I not like him? The benefits his biological father gave him were so great that even Xuanzhen Temple couldn't handle it. So he had to be treated differently.

Therefore, Chu Zhou specifically ordered Yi Huai to practice more with him and never relax in martial arts. He could give him some special training from time to time.

Looking at his personality, he was suitable for development in the Foreign Affairs Hall, so Wei Fangjie recruited him under his command.

The benefits given are not much, but we still have to take it step by step.

After I finished all this, half a month had passed. It was July and the weather was getting hotter.

But the atmosphere of the entire Tianquan County seemed a little weird.

It is no longer news that Ba Zong destroyed Wenxiang Temple, but the problem is that everyone is waiting for the follow-up, but there is no follow-up.

Ba Zong did not follow the line of Wenxiang Temple to deal with or attack the sects and forces that were close to Wenxiang Temple.

Nor did it support any new martial arts sect to replace Wenxiang Temple in Tianquan County.

As for Ba Zong personally taking charge?

Are you kidding? Why would a super sect spanning two prefectures have to stay in a small place like Anyue City?

As for the evil woman from the Xuan Yue Sect, she still only exists in legends, and the Ba Zong has not found her yet.

So, now almost everyone is confused about what Ba Zong is going to do?
……

Lone Peak,

In the small courtyard.

Chu Zhou waved his hands and summoned a dark cloud. Raindrops fell on the fields, making the golden rice ears sway in the rain against the green.

In two years, Chu Zhou naturally finished all the courses, including the last basic course, "The Development of the Spiritual Plant Husband".

On the surface, Lingzhifu is just a farmer in the world of immortals, doing farming work, but he really has a lot of knowledge inside.

From the most basic, the selection and cultivation of spiritual fields; to the screening and breeding of seeds; to fertilizing the fields, sowing, and planting; to observation, rainfall, and pest control; and finally to harvesting, seed selection, and storage.

There is a lot of knowledge in each of these activities.

Of course, most importantly, the most amazing part of this course is the ability to grow new seeds on your own.

For example, through the use of techniques and other guidance, high-yield and high-resistant rice varieties can be cultivated. Whether they taste good or not is another matter, but the yield per mu must be high.

Among his two acres of experimental fields, one acre is developed in this direction, and the expected target is to produce 800 kilograms per acre.

Don’t think it’s too little. Even the best paddy fields in Chishui Prefecture can produce 400 kilograms per mu, which is already the best.

If his rice seeds that produce 800 kilograms per acre are produced, the entire Dayun Dynasty can build a temple for him, and countless people will worship him.

As for the other acre, it is the route of continuous improvement. According to what Chu Zhou learned in the Jieying Hall, he is preparing to cultivate in the direction of spiritual rice.

At this stage, his preset goal is purple bamboo rice, which can effectively supplement the needs of the human body, provide a certain amount of gentle inspiration, and has the effect of nourishing the body and nourishing qi.

The most important thing is that there is almost no poison in the spiritual rice, which will not weaken the effect of the elixir. It is hard currency even in the world of immortal cultivation.

Of course, cultivating purple bamboo rice is much more difficult than cultivating rice seeds that produce 800 kilograms per mu.

Chu Zhou estimated that even if he used the most correct method, it would take ten years and he would need a bit of luck to succeed.

It is worth mentioning that in this lesson, Chu Zhou learned several corresponding techniques.

Such as the "Spring Rain Spell" to awaken the fertility of the soil, the "Insect Repellent Spell" for eliminating insects, and the simplest "Rainfall Spell" for spreading rain. There is also a special spell for selecting seeds, called the "Spirit Seed Flash Spell".

Using this technique, you can select the best and healthiest seeds from a pile of rice seeds and save them for planting next year.

The so-called magic rice is actually selected from the best of the best.

Perhaps it is because food is the most important thing for people, or perhaps it is because he has a farming gene, but gradually, Chu Zhou really likes to take care of his two acres of land whenever he has time.

It was also during the weeding and pest control process that he actually felt a certain peace of mind, as if even the biggest problem was nothing at this point.

When the dark clouds dispersed, the rain naturally stopped. Chu Zhou had already picked up a sickle and prepared to go to the fields to weed and kill insects.

The more precious the rice is, the more likely it is to attract pests. Chu Zhou is very concerned about this acre of future purple bamboo rice.

But at this moment, his expression changed slightly, and his five senses developed magical powers, as if he felt a unique oppression.

He tilted his head slightly, facing down the mountain, closed his eyes and concentrated, his senses spreading outward like a tide.

Then, he felt that there seemed to be two extremely powerful auras approaching in front of the mountain gate of Xuanzhen Temple, more than ten miles away.

Before he could react, he felt a burst of energy and a long whistle sound coming from it.

"Ba Zong Xiandeng Hall Vice-Hall Master Yan Xiuyuan and Fenglei Academy Dean Gongye Wang have come to pay their respects to the mountain!"

"Please ask Master Chu of Xuanzhen Temple to come out and see me!"

　The second update is here!
