Chapter 148 Planting
The twelve acres of spiritual herbs were fully mature, and the fragrance of medicine filled the air, refreshing the heart.
Lin Mu and Shitou began to collect them. These twelve acres of spiritual herbs were enough for the two of them to spend a day.
Lin's father and mother took a short rest, and then got up to help Lin Mu collect them.
The family was busy for most of the day before they finished collecting the twelve acres of spiritual herbs. Everyone's face was sweaty and full of joy.
Then the four of them worked non-stop to prepare these spiritual herbs into materials for refining Guiling Pills. Lin Mu, his father and Shitou were responsible for the preparation, and Lin's mother counted the number.
Five hours later, the four of them finished all this. Lin Mu smiled and asked his mother: "How many?"
"One thousand nine hundred and three!" Lin's mother looked happy. This number was indeed gratifying.
Father Lin smiled and said, "Yes, this batch of spiritual herbs is better than the previous ones."
Shitou smiled and said, "This must be the credit of the grass essence beads."
Lin Mu smiled and said, "The grass essence beads have a gratifying effect. Now we don't have to worry about the materials." Then he said to Shitou, "These materials are enough for you to practice for five months. You can make pills in this Xuanyue space in the future."
Shitou put all the materials into the storage bag and smiled, "But according to the master's arrangement, the speed of making pills here is twice as fast as outside, and the success rate can also be rapidly improved."
The low success rate of alchemy has always been Shitou's concern. Now that the materials are sufficient, he is much more relieved.
Shitou turned around and walked to the front of the hut, took out the bronze furnace, threw the materials into it, cast the bell shoot fire, and started to make pills.
Lin Mu smiled and nodded, then said to his father: "This batch of spiritual herbs has been harvested, let's start planting the next batch of spiritual herbs."
Father Lin smiled and said: "That's great. Although we now have spiritual fields and can quickly ripen spiritual herbs, it seems very easy, but we have to do everything one by one. Don't be too happy and lose your diligent nature."
Lin Mu nodded: "The road to cultivation is long, and a little slackness will make us hesitate, so we should work hard."
After that, he picked up the earth spirit hoe and began to cultivate the spiritual fields.
The cultivation of these twelve acres of spiritual fields is completely physical work. Lin Mu worked hard for a day to complete the cultivation. He was already sweating and tired.
Father Lin followed Lin Mu and spread seeds in all the twelve acres of spiritual fields and planted them once.
The spiritual herbs have been harvested many times. The seeds of these second-grade spiritual herbs have been collected by Lin's mother in cloth bags, which are as many as three cloth bags. The amount of these seeds is enough to plant fifty acres of spiritual fields.
After finishing all these, Lin Mu took a short break, and immediately took his father and mother outside to continue to cultivate the spiritual field.
Lin Mu planted the third-grade spiritual grass Seven Star Grass on the newly cultivated one acre of spiritual field.
The Seven Star Paper had been used up long ago, and Lin Mu now had no talismans on him.
Lin Mu knew the power of talismans very well.
If a Qi Refining cultivator had a large number of talismans, it would not be difficult to defeat a Spiritual Silence cultivator in the opposite order.
Of course, the premise is that this Qi Refining cultivator has extremely rich wealth and has enough talismans. Otherwise, he will be abused by the Spiritual Silence cultivator.
The Seven Star Grass just showed its tender yellow buds from the ground three days later. The growth rate of spiritual grass is indeed not comparable to that of the Xuanyue Space.
While Lin Mu asked his father to slowly cultivate the spiritual field, he made grass essence beads and then used them to ripen the Seven Star Grass.
What surprised Lin Mu was that the effect of the grass essence beads was not as strong as before.
It took a full 150 grass essence beads to fully ripen this acre of Seven Star Grass.
Lin Mu was slightly surprised for a while, but then he was relieved.
Seven Star Grass is a third-grade spiritual grass, which takes at least three years to mature. It is natural that the effect of grass essence beads is greatly reduced in this regard.
After this batch of Seven Star Grass matured, Lin's father had already reclaimed two acres of spiritual fields.
Lin Mu planted another two acres of Seven Star Grass, and then continued to use grass essence beads to ripen it.
It took almost more than 300 grass essence beads to fully ripen these two acres of Seven Star Grass.
After making these 300 grass essence beads, two acres of vacant land were vacated, and Lin's father also reclaimed these two acres of vacant land into spiritual fields.
In this way, there were already four acres of spiritual fields, and Lin Mu planted Seven Star Grass again.
Then he continued to make grass essence beads to ripen Seven Star Grass.
After this batch of Seven Star Grass matured, there were already eight acres of spiritual fields!
Lin Mu did not stop, and planted again. After the Seven Star Grass was harvested again, the number of spiritual fields had reached sixteen acres.
Sixteen acres of spiritual fields! All of them were Grade Three!
Lin Mu stopped at this point. After all, the number of spiritual fields on the island was limited. Each large tree took hundreds of years to grow. If it was squandered recklessly, it would eventually become extinct. Lin Mu understood the principle of slow and steady growth. These sixteen acres of spiritual fields, plus the twelve acres in the Xuanyue Space, twenty-eight acres of spiritual fields, were enough for the four of them to practice.
At least at this stage, it was more than enough.
The number of spiritual fields reached sixteen acres, and the Seven Star Grass leaves had been harvested four times, from one acre at the beginning, to two acres, four acres, and eight acres, adding up to a total of fifteen acres!
Fifteen acres of Seven Star Grass, a total of more than ten thousand plants were collected!
If this is made into seven-star paper, the number will be quite large.
As long as he has seven-star paper, he will not have to worry about not having talismans.
Lin Mu found a storage bag specifically to store these seven-star grasses.
Then Lin Mu and his father planted all the sixteen acres of spiritual fields with second-grade spiritual herbs. These second-grade spiritual herbs are all spiritual herbs used to refine the Guiling Pill.
Now that Shitou has enough materials in his hands, Lin Mu does not plan to continue to use the grass and wood essence beads to ripen these spiritual herbs. As long as the materials can be supplied, he does not want to waste those big trees for no reason.
If these big trees want to grow again, it will take at least a hundred years!
Lin Mu does not want this lake island to become a deserted island in the future. In the future, the higher the cultivation level, the higher the grade of spiritual herbs required, and these big trees will definitely have other uses.
Now on this lake island, he has plenty of time to slowly wait for the spiritual herbs to mature.
Only eight months, for him, it is just a blink of an eye.
After so many years of cultivation, time is just a number to him, and it has no other meaning.
However, his life span is limited after all, which always spurs him to keep working hard and not dare to relax.
He doesn't want the tragedy of dying helplessly after running out of life span to happen to himself, or to his parents and Shitou.
This sixteen acres of spiritual field is all his hope!
Lin Mu smiled and performed the "Green Water Art". A huge white cloud floated in the air. He pointed his hand and the raindrops fell continuously. The spiritual grass in the spiritual field suddenly became emerald green.
This rain lasted for three hours and consumed most of his spiritual power.
Although he is now in the foundation building stage, the "Green Water Art" is still at the fourth level, without any progress.
Lin Mu suddenly remembered that he had been busy, busy fighting, busy looking for the blessed land, busy refining pills, but forgot the most important thing, practice!
For many years, his five elements magic formula has not made any progress.
His cultivation has always remained at the initial stage of foundation building. His parents' cultivation has now far surpassed his and reached the middle stage of foundation building.
After finishing all this, it's time to practice hard. Lin Mu made up his mind secretly.
With a flash of his figure, Lin Mu entered the Xuanyue space. As soon as he entered, he smelled a refreshing medicinal fragrance.
Shitou skillfully took the pill out of the furnace and put it into a small white bottle.
Lin Mu smiled slightly and nodded secretly. Shitou really lived up to his expectations and had made some achievements in alchemy.
Lin Mu smiled and said, "Shitou did a good job. How many bottles have you refined?"
Shitou handed a storage bag to Lin Mu and said, "I haven't counted it either. All the Guiling Pills refined in the past month are in it."
Lin Mu took the storage bag with a smile. The spiritual mark of this storage bag had been erased long ago, and anyone could check it. Lin Mu released his spiritual sense and took a quick look, and his smile became even stronger.
Three hundred and sixty bottles!
This speed is not bad. Lin Mu only refined more than 300 bottles a month.
Shitou refined so many Guiling Pills in less than two months. The speed is not slow. It can be imagined that the effort he put in is no less than Lin Mu.
Lin Mu was relieved. Although Shitou didn't have a few days of leisure after following him, his nature did not change. He was still diligent and hardworking. If the fat Huai couple knew about it, they would be very relieved.
Although Shitou worked hard to refine pills every day, his cultivation level also improved a little.
Refining pills is actually a kind of practice, but the speed of cultivation is very slow.
Lin Mu put away the storage bag and said with a smile: "After refining so many Guiling Pills in more than a month, the success rate should reach 40%, right?"
Shitou smiled and said: "Not yet, but it's almost there."
Lin Mu patted Shitou on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Keep working hard. When I finish everything, I will refine pills with you."
Shitou smiled and nodded: "The art of refining pills is broad and profound. The deeper I go, the more I feel that my level is shallow. Please give me more guidance, Master."
Lin Mu said: "This means that you have entered the door. Unlike some people who know only the superficial knowledge, they are arrogant. You continue to refine. Many problems do not need my guidance. After you reach a certain level, you will understand it. What others say is not as real as your own understanding."
Shitou nodded: "Disciple will learn."
Lin Mu smiled and said: "Continue to refine. Only by practicing a lot can you accumulate a lot of experience and make progress." After that, he flashed out of the Xuanyue space.
On the island in the middle of the lake, four wooden houses stood side by side. Lin's father and mother were meditating in a house on the left.
Pushing the door open gently, Lin Mu entered the house. Both his parents were meditating and had not woken up.
Lin Mu smiled, quietly put the storage bag in the house, gently closed the door, and quietly left.
After Lin Mu left, Lin's father and mother woke up from their meditation at the same time, opened their eyes, and looked at each other. The expressions in their eyes were exactly the same, with relief and guilt.
The two sighed secretly, then each took a bottle of Guiling Pill and continued to practice hard.
When he came outside, Lin Mu took out a square object from the storage bag, which was the talisman!
This time, a total of more than 10,000 seven-star grasses were harvested. Lin Mu planned to make all of these seven-star grasses into seven-star paper first.
With seven-star paper, talismans can naturally be made in large quantities.
Lin Mu followed the recipe of the seven-star paper and took out hundreds of seven-star grasses, as well as several other low-level spiritual herbs, such as three-line vines, long-leaved roots, etc.
Putting these spiritual herbs into the talisman mold, Lin Mu performed the "Green Water Art" and slightly injected some clear water into the talisman mold, then picked up the copper mallet hanging on the side of the talisman mold and carefully crushed these spiritual herbs into a paste. Then Lin Mu grabbed the bronze round handle exposed on the left side of the talisman mold and input spiritual power into it.
Suddenly, a burst of flames rose from the bottom of the talisman mold, just like cooking porridge. Lin Mu controlled the size of the spiritual power and slowly boiled it at the bottom of the talisman mold with a small fire.
