Chapter 146 Awakening the Self, Workbook Level 100

The new expanded area is also divided into food area, fruit and vegetable area, and egg and milk area.

The food area is not a shelf, but a compartment, where various food is piled up in different categories.

The egg and milk area is listed separately, not because there is too much goat milk, after all, manual milking is not much faster.

The main reason is that the people of Qianquan City used a lot of chickens, ducks, geese, and even half-grown ones to exchange for food.

When slaughtering excess livestock, these little guys are more adorable, and Xiao Ping'er is a little reluctant to kill them.

Gu Ke thought that there would be no meat if he killed them, and he couldn't eat much if he kept them, so he let them go.

Since eating the food and vegetables in this cave, these little guys have swelled up like blowing in more than two months.

They also started laying eggs, not only with a high frequency, but also very stable, with a minimum of one egg a day.

These are not dozens or hundreds of eggs, but thousands, that is, more than a thousand eggs per day.

Even Xiaoman, who has been keen on cakes recently, shook his head when he saw the pile of eggs: "I can't finish them, I really can't finish them."

Fortunately, Gu Ke has used the spirit stone to restrain them to go back to the shed to lay eggs, otherwise it would be a big project for Xiao Ping'er to pick up eggs every day.

The storage of eggs is also more troublesome than grains and vegetables. They must be handled with care and stacked layer by layer.

Xiaoman will start to get angry after doing this for a while, so it is the meticulous and patient Xiao Ping'er who does it.

The soft and fine sunflower blood will "pad" under the eggs, dozens of them at a time, and more than a thousand eggs can be stacked dozens of times.

Even so, Gu Ke also dislikes these eggs that take up space and are difficult to move.

These few times he set up the stall, he simply used the tens of thousands of slaughtered poultry and livestock and eggs as the needs for martial arts practice, and sent out several batches together.

In ancient times when plant protein could not be guaranteed to be sufficient, animal protein was absolutely rich in nutrition.

No matter how ordinary the meat of poultry and livestock is, it is more suitable for martial artists than ordinary grains.

These eggs are laid by poultry that eat exotic food, and the overall effect is better than exotic food.

Moreover, when purchasing, the system will treat the eggs as animals (unhatched), but they can be used as food when sold.

Gu Ke was too lazy to complain about the system's differential treatment, just send it and it's done.

Anyway, with the arrival of spring, the grass and trees in the valley grow a lot.

Except for occasionally gathering some earthworms underground to feed these chickens, ducks and geese, no additional care is needed.

Soon they will become excellent ingredients for frying, roasting and stewing.

In this way, the eggs are basically picked up for free, and the only thing you need to pay is Xiao Ping'er's labor.

Compared with the work spent on farming, harvesting food and vegetables, this is really too easy.

After upgrading the warehouse, it was already March.

Automatic manufacturing and automatic processing have freed Gu Ke and the other four from a large part of the repetitive work, and their lives are more leisurely than before.

What's going on in the mountains? Several huts and hundreds of books. Peach and plum wine, spring water for tea.

In the morning, he took care of the fields and tried to make some small desserts and drinks.

In the afternoon, he would hang out with the two children in the mountains, find a comfortable piece of grass, and have a picnic in the sun.

Otherwise, he would let the two children play by themselves, and he would bring the trial-made small desserts and drinks to have afternoon tea with Sister Bai.

Of course, the afternoon tea for the two of them was completely different from the picnic for the two children, and it was also different from the afternoon tea in the previous life.

Sister Bai didn't have so much to talk to him, most of the time they just sat side by side on the bamboo couch reading books.

Occasionally, they would talk to each other about the problems in the book, or hear the noise of the two children down the mountain and laugh a few words.

But the atmosphere was always calm and quiet, with only the slightly warm spring breeze and the occasional chirping of birds.

It was the "full" noise that made the forest more quiet, and the birds singing in the mountains more secluded.

With the improvement of Bi Hai Jing, Sister Bai has reached the point where she is not affected by cold or heat, and her mind is more transparent and casual.

Most of the time, she wears a long dress from the East Sea Kingdom.

In winter, she would symbolically add a slightly thicker cloak or jacket.

When Miss Qin and the others were still there, she first wore a heart-shaped bun, which soon became a normal bun.

Now that there is only Gu Ke and the two children, she simply ties her hair with silk thread.

The reason is simple. When she turns over on the bamboo couch, lying on her side or on her back, her hair will not be as painful as a bun. She can read, daydream, and take a nap in the most comfortable posture.

Since February, Sister Bai loves to take naps more and more.

Gu Ke has studied this with her many times.

Whether she looks inward or Gu Ke scans with his mind, there is no problem.

On the contrary, her blood and qi are becoming more and more vigorous and pure, comparable to that of an old-fashioned martial arts master who has practiced for decades under normal circumstances, and there is a hint of liveliness and agility in it.

The two roughly guessed the reason from the secret book given by Miss Qin.

If other martial masters knew about her situation, they would be envious, jealous, and resentful, and it would not be surprising if they were completely unrecognizable. It would not be surprising if they suddenly wanted to kill her.

Because that lively and agile feeling is an inevitable phenomenon recorded in the secret book of Lieyang Sect.

It is a sign that the "self" in the chakra blood and qi is awakened when the martial master accumulates enough, and it is also the "ticket" to the martial saint.

At this point, there is basically no surprise that Bai Suqing wants to cultivate to the perfection of martial master.

Although the martial saint cannot be said to be a certainty, it is also one of the people with the most hope of success.

Excluding the ten years that passed in a sleep, Bai Suqing has only practiced martial arts for more than twenty years.

Most of the core members of large sects and forces with excellent talents in the outside world are promoted to martial masters in their sixties and seventies, and they are proud of entering the martial master at around the age of one hundred.

Signs of "awakening the true self"? If there are some signs at the age of 150, it is enough to make many martial masters ecstatic.

Don't think 150 is too old, that's it? It's hard for martial masters from generation to generation in Dawu to have the chance.

This is a great thing, but... can it be linked to sleepiness? It really can.

There are records in the secret book of Lieyang Sect that many martial masters have some strange conditions when "awakening the true self", and sleepiness is among them.

Others such as overeating, digging into the soil and soaking in water, liking and disliking cold and heat, dryness and wetness, light and darkness, etc. are all considered good.

Lust, bloodthirstiness, eating raw meat and drinking blood, and hallucinations are troublesome.

These behaviors are all from their instincts, not eroded by monsters.

Once out of control, instincts overwhelm reason, and they may become... demons.

Demons are an extremely rare existence.

The reason why they are listed alongside monsters is that the strength of demons is very strong, and most of them are in the third round.

Generally speaking, they, or "they", are neither human nor demon.

Demons and demons cannot erode them. They will hunt demons and demons, but they are not friends of humans.

Because... they kill more people.

Who makes Dawu have the most people, not demons and demons?

However, there is a difference between demons and demons. They will kill people, even many people at a time, but they are not like demons who kill people at will.

Especially demons transformed from humans, mixed in the crowd, ordinary people can't detect any difference between them and humans.

Even some people are possessed by demons and kill people, and they will be considered to be some bloodthirsty warriors committing crimes.

In the end, until they are killed or disappear, no one knows whether they are human or demon.

Speaking of which, Sister Bai's sleepiness is not bad. At least there is no record of people who become demons due to sleepiness in the secret book of Lieyang Sect.

She herself speculated that as the "self" in her body becomes more obvious, the sleepiness will become more obvious.

Until one day, when the self is completely clear and about to step into the martial saint, her sleepiness will disappear.

Hearing this speculation, Gu Ke was silent.

She said it lightly, as if it was just a matter of sleeping, but if it was so easy for a martial saint to succeed, there wouldn't be so few in the past five hundred years.

Is there a martial master who just fell asleep and never woke up again? She didn't know, and he didn't know, and the secret book of the Lieyang Sect didn't know either.

What he could really trust was the system.

In the employee column of the system, Bai Suqing's status was green, which represented normality, rather than abnormal yellow or even dying red.

This also proved that her sleepiness was normal.

If not, Gu Ke would never be able to relax again.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Bai Suqing.

Seeing her lying on her side on the bamboo couch, her plump body wrapped in a sky-blue long skirt was like a distant mountain valley, ups and downs.

Her black hair was scattered on her white jade-like face, and her eyelashes were like a comb.

The corners of her slightly raised lips seemed to still have a little smile, her breathing was long and slow, and the book in her hand had slipped to the ground.

It's really the spring time when I'm lazy and sleepy, leaning on the breeze, and my hands are tired and I throw away the book and have a long nap.

Gu Ke reached out to pick up the book on the ground and put it on the small table next to him.

He turned his head, lay on his back on the bamboo couch, looked at the large white clouds passing by in the blue sky, and continued to think.

Fortunately, her sleepiness was not serious, and she could wake up at any time.

However, the valley was quiet and there was nothing to do in the afternoon, so she slept.

As for the future, all system buildings will be upgraded to level 5 within a few months.

With many characteristics and the special crops produced by the fairy field, it is not difficult to save Sister Bai's life.

Even if she really becomes a demon, at most she can be placed in the south bedroom.

Like the stupid Saranzhu, he has raised her for so many years.

As time goes by, he will find a way to solve Sister Bai's problems sooner or later.

Of course, this is just the worst plan.

If she successfully breaks through the Martial Saint by herself, everything can be solved.

If you want to be powerful and live forever, how can you do it without paying a price?

Not only her, but also Xiaoman and Xiaoping'er, will have to pass this level sooner or later.

Sister Bai was silent, but she was also exploring the way for them.

Otherwise, with Xiao Ping'er's talent, she would surpass her in ten years at most and enter the stage of "awakening the self" first.

Xiao Ping'er's mind is far from strong, and if she is not careful, there will be problems.

Sister Bai chose to go first and explore the way for them.

…

In March, in addition to watching Sister Bai's begonia sleeping in spring and being oppressed by Xiaoman, there was an unexpected surprise.

That is... the craftsmanship book finally reached level 100.

Thanks to the collective upgrade of the system buildings, Gu Ke first manually and then automatically manufactured the maximum number of standard bamboo houses every day.

At the end of March, the craftsmanship book became Gu Ke's first skill to reach level 100.

System prompt: "The skill of Gongshu has reached level 100. Players can get Tiangong character card for free."

"Characteristic Qiqiaoling +5, automatically changed to Tiangong +1."

"Tiangong character card has additional attributes, Gongshu level +100, characteristic dexterity +10."

"The player already has the characteristic Tiangong, characteristic dexterity +10 is automatically converted to Tiangong +1, totaling Tiangong +2."

Gu Ke was working in the ordinary farmland at the foot of the mountain at the time, and for a moment he was a little confused: Am I not farming? How come the Gongshu level has been upgraded?

He immediately remembered the workshop that was still automatically manufacturing bamboo houses, and roughly understood what was going on: it turned out that the proficiency gained from AFK today had been credited.

After reading these system prompts carefully, Gu Ke thought: "Then when Agronomy is upgraded to level 100, it should also... uh, it seems that I have already obtained the Shennong character card, and I can only upgrade the characteristics."

But, he doesn't mind.

Agronomy is also level 92 anyway, and it is estimated that it will only take a few months of farm work.

Use coupons to upgrade? That's unnecessary.

The Wuxiang Sutra is his foundation, and he can brush up his proficiency in Agronomy every day.

Natural affinity +4 is more than enough for growing general grain crops and raising livestock.

Only those special crops in the fairy field need a relatively high natural affinity to observe and appropriately adjust the details of watering, fertilizing, and planting.

For example, some like water or dryness, some prefer yin or yang, and some need topdressing at a certain growth stage.

If he doesn't do these, the fairy field can also ensure that these special crops will not die.

But if it is done well, the yield will increase, at least 10% or 20%, and at most 30% or 50%.

In ordinary alien fairy fields, they can be obtained after a few rounds of planting, so he doesn't care.

These special crops basically appeared after being dormant for ten years with the upgrading of the cave, each with its own unique effects.

The cost is that the growth and maturity period is greatly extended, basically in months, and the longest is more than a year.

Scarcity makes things valuable, and Gu Ke certainly doesn't want to let them lose their yield.

It seems that I have to do more farm work every day in the future. He thought so.

However, in addition to agronomy and industrial books, he also has two skills, literary classics and war books, which are only level 20+ at present.

There are really not many opportunities to use them in the valley.

The level of literary classics is accumulated slowly by reading, recording, and organizing the "scrapped" skill books read by the women, as well as the structural diagrams of some tools and supplies collected when going out.

The war book is just to practice martial arts on weekdays, record martial arts, and stamp a seal when making tools and weapons.

Otherwise, these two items are directly upgraded with coupons? This thought flashed through his mind.

If purchased with soul source, the character card of Wen Zong is 1000, and the character card of Zhan Wang is 10000. Just looking at these two numbers makes him feel painful.

If you get the Wen Zong character card for free at level 100, and the Zhan Lu character card at level 100, you can also upgrade the characteristic level and quality of the two skills.

One out and one in, it is indeed a good deal.

But think about it, is he Gu Ke a person who likes reading and writing? In the previous life... well, at least part of it is.

He started reading novels in junior high school, from the beginning of the ancient and modern legends, Jin Liang Gu Wen Huang, to various online novels.

Regardless of the quality and function of the reading materials, the number alone is thousands of books and billions of words.

At the same time, he also wrote online novels for a period of time and received royalties, so he can be considered an author.

Although he writes novels on the keyboard instead of writing with a pen, the essence is the same.

Otherwise, write some "Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west, don't bully the poor young" for the two children to see? This idea popped up in his mind.

Show it to Sister Bai... That's impossible.

She will only comment lightly with a sentence "Your courage is commendable", and the rest? That's needless to say.

Without cheating, and without the fate of being the protagonist, most people would only pretend to be great by - don't bully the poor middle-aged, don't bully the poor old, death is the greatest.

If you are unlucky, you will meet a black boss like Gu Ke in his previous life, and you don't have to wait until old age to let others die.

After thinking for a while, he will not consider using points to upgrade the skills of the classics and battle books.

Tiangong character cards have not been used yet, and no comparative tests have been done, so why are you anxious.

…
