Chapter 237 Rice Tree (1/2)

The strength increased instantly, which greatly increased Nong Mingquan's sense of identity with Da Shang. He didn't understand before why so many Jindan cultivators came out to participate in the dragon fight this time.

It was not until this moment that he understood the charm of the dragon fight. He was just a minister of Da Shang, but he could get so much dragon energy. If Da Shang succeeded in the dragon fight in the future, how huge would the dragon energy of Da Shang be? And how much benefit could he get?

Nong Mingquan's thoughts were directly reflected on his face. Most cultivators were isolated from the world, and their cognition of things like human relationships was generally shallow, or very simple. Only a few cultivators who had experienced the world in the human world would appear very smooth.

As soon as Feng Tianzong saw Nong Mingquan's expression, he knew that the matter was done. For the strength of Da Shang, Nong Mingquan would definitely work for Da Shang with all his strength.

Except for those extremely talented cultivators, such as those born sacred, even the most talented cultivators need years of practice to improve their cultivation.

This kind of good thing of directly being appointed as an official and then improving cultivation is irresistible even for those talented cultivators. What's more, those cultivators with low qualifications?

Saving several years of hard practice in an instant is something that no one would refuse. In order to gain more powerful power, it is natural to contribute to Da Shang.

"Your Majesty, Nong Mingquan, the Marquis of Fengxiang, pays homage to His Majesty." Nong Mingquan said respectfully to Feng Tianzong.

"Okay, your next job is to find a way to increase grain production and improve the types of grain. Food is the first necessity of the people. If Da Shang wants to become stronger, it must have enough grain. Not only do people need to eat grain, we also need to raise enough livestock, which also requires a large amount of grain.

So your work will be the cornerstone of Da Shang's rise. When you succeed, I will definitely not be stingy with rewards. When the dragon fight succeeds in the future, you will be the number one hero." Feng Tianzong began to paint a big picture without a teacher.

Nong Mingquan hesitated a little. He could grow spiritual medicine and some magical spells to improve plant growth, but he couldn't study and improve grain production! This is completely a blind spot in knowledge, he can't do it!

"Your Majesty, if you let me grow some precious spiritual plants and spiritual medicines, no matter how precious they are, I can try it, but I don't know how to improve the types of grain!" Nong Mingquan said in embarrassment.

Feng Tianzong was stunned, but he quickly reacted. Either a good farmer or a good researcher. Without any basic theory, it is really difficult for Nong Mingquan to study high-yield grain seeds directly.

However, Feng Tianzong suddenly remembered that it didn't matter if he didn't understand the basics or science. This was not a scientific world. This was the world of immortal cultivation. It was all about magic and spells.

Feng Tianzong remembered the wooden building they were in now. This was dead wood, and it could be awakened by magic and grow together again. This was not scientific.

"What magic did you use in this building to make these wood grow together again?" Feng Tianzong asked directly.

"Reporting to His Majesty, this is the combination of the advanced magic of dead wood resurrection and the small magic of accelerated growth, which made these woods revitalized and then linked them together to accelerate growth. It became like this now.

Although it looks very magical, it has no combat power. It can only fool mortals." Nong Mingquan said embarrassedly.

In the world of immortal cultivation, everything is based on fighting first, and magic and spells that are not helpful to combat power are not important at all.

It was also the first time that Feng Tianzong heard about the concept of combined magical powers. Some magical powers can be combined to achieve a sum greater than two. They can promote each other.

Feng Tianzong lowered his head and stepped on the floor twice, and asked casually: "Are these woods of the same type?"

"Almost. The same type of wood will save more mana when performing this magical power. Different types of wood can also succeed after performing the magical power, but it consumes more mana." Nong Mingquan said honestly.

Feng Tianzong's eyes suddenly lit up. Since different types of wood can grow together, can food and trees be combined?

Feng Tianzong immediately became interested, stood up and asked Nong Mingquan cordially: "If I graft the food onto the tree, can the tree grow food?"

"I haven't tried this, but I can give it a try." Nong Mingquan was stunned by Feng Tianzong's fantasy, but he quickly realized that he had been in the mortal world for quite a while, and he naturally understood how important Feng Tianzong's proposal would be to the mortal world.

"Okay, let's go to the palace first. I remember there is an apple tree in the palace. Let's graft it with rice and see if we can make the rice as big as apples." Feng Tianzong also became excited.

Third Senior Sister Wei Weixian also listened with great interest. The three of them hurried back to the palace. It happened that their seats were by the window. Feng Tianzong took Nong Mingquan and jumped directly from the window and flew away.

The third sister smiled as she looked at Feng Tianzong's childish side. Even after decades, Feng Tianzong was still able to maintain this childishness. The third sister felt inexplicably nostalgic. She missed the days when they studied together, which were simple and beautiful.

She followed closely behind, rising into the clouds and flying towards the palace. After she came to the mortal world, she heard that Feng Tianzong was in the harem and selected a group of beautiful girls every year. The most beautiful girls in the country were all proud to be selected into the Weiyang Palace.

After so many years, I don’t know how many stunning beauties there are in Feng Tianzong’s harem. This topic is also very popular among the people.

People all know that Emperor Feng Tianzong is an immortal master with powerful magical powers. Anyone who can become a concubine in the Red Palace can live forever and have an eternal appearance.

This is also the reason why beautiful girls yearn to enter Weiyang Palace. Beauties have been like famous generals since ancient times and are not allowed to grow old in the world. And what woman doesn’t want to look ageless?

Immortality is naturally some exaggerated speculation among the people. Any monk with some common sense knows that at least in the entire world of immortality, no one can truly achieve immortality.

However, the news that Feng Tianzong's Weiyang Palace was full of beauties was true, and the third senior sister didn't know how she felt after hearing the news.

But she wanted to go to Weiyang Palace to see for herself what kind of women they were, and how were they compared to her? It's a pity that Feng Tianzong never mentioned this matter to her. There was never any idea of ​​inviting her to visit Weiyang Palace.

With this opportunity to enter the Weiyang Palace, the third senior sister naturally wanted to take a good look at what the magical Weiyang Palace in folklore looked like, and how beautiful the women in her junior brother's harem were.

Feng Tianzong was so excited that he actually forgot about the third senior sister. Increasing grain production was really too important, as it was related to the prosperity of Feng Tianzong's Shang Dynasty.

Feng Tianzong planted a lot of fruit trees in the Weiyang Palace. Because of the influence of the city defense formation, it can be artificially adjusted in all seasons, whether it is spring, summer, autumn, or winter, so the variety of fruit trees in the Weiyang Palace is quite rich.

Almost all fruits in the mortal world can be found in Weiyang Palace. There are dedicated gardeners who have trained them very well.

All year round, you can pick whatever fruit you want from the trees and only eat the freshest fruits.

Feng Tianzong and Nong Mingquan walked all the way on the clouds and entered the Weiyang Palace in a swaggering manner.

"Who is that person who flies into the palace so blatantly? Why do I see that he is holding a man in his hand? Is he disguised as a woman?" Someone said in surprise as he looked at the figure flying past in the sky. .

"Except for the emperor and the empress, who in this great merchant would dare to be so flamboyant? Even those high-ranking immortal masters, don't they have to grovel in front of His Majesty? How dare they fly above Weiyang Palace. That person must be His Majesty ." An old man said proudly, stroking his beard.

Many of the earliest people who lived in Liaoyuan City had witnessed Feng Tianzong's actions, and they had the highest admiration for Feng Tianzong, and they also had an inexplicable sense of superiority.

Although in Feng Tianzong's eyes, all people are treated equally and are all leeks in his field. Of course you have to take good care of it.

But the first people who lived in Liaoyuan City just felt that they were different. They are the closest to His Majesty. Of course, these people are also the most loyal to Dashang and Feng Tianzong.

"If you are your Majesty? Why would you fly into the palace with a man in your arms? Does your Majesty like the south wind now?" A beautiful girl said in horror.

No matter how the people talked about it, Feng Tianzong and Nong Mingquan just flew all the way to the apple orchard in the clouds. Because there are many types of fruit trees, although Weiyang Palace is not small, there are not many of each type planted.

Only three apple plants were planted.

Feng Tianzong directly gave up the largest and best-growing apple tree and watched Nong Mingquan perform grafting. Nong Mingquan's method was also very simple and crude. He directly took a bundle of rice, replaced the branches, and directly grafted it on using his magical power.

Although it seems that the donkey's lips are not the horse's mouth, and the whole tree looks very weird. However, with the continuous display of Nong Mingquan's magical powers.

First, he uses advanced magical powers to revive dead trees and make the newly grafted rice come alive, and then uses magical powers to accelerate growth. This strange-looking plant grew quickly and became much more natural and pleasing to the eye.

The places where branches should have grown have all turned into rice straws. They are just like rice straws, but they are hard enough. With the use of magical power, the rice tree became much more natural, and soon it was filled with rice flowers.

"Your Majesty's spiritual energy is insufficient and needs to be replenished quickly, otherwise this bead tree will die." Nong Mingquan said while exerting his magical power with great difficulty.

Feng Tianzong did not hesitate. As soon as he thought, the spiritual energy of the entire city defense formation gathered in this direction, especially the three lights of the sun, moon and stars, which quickly gathered on the rice tree.

The trees were covered with fallen wheat ears, and they looked so festive. It's just different from what Feng Tianzong expected.

The rice particles did not become as big as apples, which made Feng Tianzong a little regretful. But the tree is full of rice, and from Feng Tianzong's perspective, the harvest from this tree is at least seven to eight thousand kilograms.

If this kind of rice tree can be planted on a large scale, Dashang will never be short of food in the future. Not to mention that everyone who practices martial arts is a big-bellied man, even if everyone eats it, it will definitely be enough to eat.

Looking at the wheat ears hanging on the branches, Feng Tianzong couldn't help laughing. As long as the food supply is open, the population will soon explode, and his strength will take off with the population.

"If this kind of rice tree is promoted throughout the country, Dashang will definitely take off." Feng Tianzong said excitedly.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it won't work." Nong Mingquan interrupted Feng Tianzong's fantasy with sweat on his forehead. Even if he is not very worldly, he knows that it is not a good thing to break Feng Tianzong's fantasy at this time.

"Why?" Feng Tianzong stared at Nong Mingquan. His eyes were so hungry that he wanted to eat people.

"Your Majesty, this kind of thing that is born by magical powers is very fragile. In order to survive, it needs to be infused with magic power from time to time. And the seeds of this kind of thing cannot grow. Just like the offspring of a horse and a donkey is a mule, and the mule has no fertility." Nong Mingquan explained carefully.

If possible, he didn't want to disturb Feng Tianzong's beautiful fantasy, but if he didn't finish talking about this kind of thing quickly, he would be even more unlucky than he is now.

Feng Tianzong frowned after listening to the explanation. The output of this kind of thing that was born by relying on magical powers has indeed increased, but if it cannot be promoted on a large scale, it is meaningless. There is no increase in the national strength of Da Shang.

Da Shang still lacks cultivators too much. If there are more cultivators, even this kind of thing that was born can be born all the time. Then it can be promoted on a large scale.

Feng Tianzong suddenly asked: "Can the formation replace manual labor to extend the life of these rice trees?"

Nong Mingquan's heart moved. Feng Tianzong's idea is indeed feasible in theory, but he doesn't know much about the formation.

"Your Majesty, I think it should be possible, but please forgive me, Your Majesty, I know nothing about the formation, I don't understand it at all. I don't know how to arrange the formation to cultivate these rice trees." Nong Mingquan said in embarrassment.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand, I understand." Feng Tianzong said excitedly. This is also a solution. Ordinary people have no way to cultivate rice trees, but if Feng Tianzong can use the formation to cultivate a large number of them, it is also meaningful.
