Chapter 15 Spirit Bamboo Rat
Time passed quickly, and half a year passed in a flash. In the past few days, Ye Tongxuan also began to gradually become busy.
The spiritual rice grown in these spiritual fields in Jiutai Mountain happened to mature during this period, and Ye Tongxuan attached great importance to this.
Whenever this happens, there will be loose cultivators or monsters coveting them, so Ye Tongxuan and others must be fully prepared.
Ye Tongxuan plans to stay here until the spiritual rice matures. If this spiritual field suffers a loss, the income of Jiutai Mountain this year will be greatly affected.
Lingmi is delicate, and its cultivation is labor-intensive. In addition to the need for rainfall every once in a while, the Lingzhufu also needs regular personnel to clear weeds every day.
There is abundant spiritual energy in the spiritual field and the soil is fertile, which can easily breed weeds, diseases and insect pests. Every time at this time of year, the two spiritual planters in Jiutai Mountain are busy removing insects and irrigating.
Although Ye Tongxuan does not have the skills of Ling Zhifu to make rain and eliminate insects, he can still help loosen the soil and remove weeds.
He practiced in a small house not far from the spiritual field. Normally, he would not leave the house. He would only leave the house when he wanted to eliminate insects from the spiritual field or cast spells to make rain.
"Dong dong dong." A rapid knock on the door came.
Ye Tongxuan, who was meditating and practicing, withdrew from the state of cultivation, waved his hand to withdraw the restriction, and said: "Come in."
The visitor was Ye Shoujing. He was sweating profusely with sweat beads on his face. His tone was full of excitement and he said: "Nephew Tongxuan, we have discovered the bamboo rat!"
Ye Tongxuan stood up suddenly and asked in disbelief: "Is it really the Lingzhu Rat?"
Ye Shoujing nodded affirmatively and said: "Nephew, come with me and have a look. We were not sure of catching it, so we didn't move rashly. The bamboo rat is still in the bamboo garden now."
Ye Tongxuan looked ecstatic and immediately went to the Bamboo Garden with Ye Shoujing.
The Spirit Bamboo Rat is only a first-level monster and is not very aggressive, but its meat is delicious and is of great benefit to low-level monks in their cultivation. It is a good supplement for low-level monks.
Not only that, the spirit bamboo rat is also very capable of reproducing. After domestication, the spirit bamboo rat can reproduce every year, and the number increases rapidly. Therefore, monks will tame them.
However, the bamboo rats in the wild are very rare and very fast. Even if ordinary monks encounter them, they cannot catch them alive without suitable tools.
The domesticated bamboo rats are firmly controlled by the sect. If a small family like the Ye family wants to tame them, they must purchase them from the sect. The price proposed by the sect is very high, and the Ye family does not have the extra financial resources to deal with them now.
The bamboo rat is domesticated.
After arriving at the Zhuyuan, with Ye Tongxuan's current cultivation level in the late stage of Qi refining, he quickly located the location of the Ling Bamboo Rat.
This adult bamboo rat is completely black and gray and is more than a foot long. It is now eating the green bamboo in the bamboo garden with concentration.
This bamboo garden was developed by two spiritual planters from Jiutai Mountain. It is located on the mountainside of Jiutai Mountain and the terrain is very good. Therefore, the bamboos in the bamboo garden grow very gratifyingly.
Coupled with the careful cultivation of two spiritual planters, a small number of green bamboos in the bamboo garden have become first-order elixirs. If this cultivation continues for a long time, it is possible that all the bamboos in the bamboo garden will become first-order elixirs.
.
Everyone was holding their breath and concentrating, not daring to make too much noise. The sound of bamboo rats gnawing on green bamboo could be faintly heard.
The two spirit planters looked ugly and hesitated to speak. They worked hard to manage the bamboo garden. After several years, a small part of the green bamboo finally became a first-class elixir. They did not expect the appearance of the spirit bamboo rat today.
Let their efforts go to waste.
The bamboo rat gnawed on first-level green bamboo, and it didn't even look at ordinary green bamboo. As a result, the faces of the two spiritual planters became even worse.
The gnawing of the bamboo rat lasted for about a quarter of an hour, and it left with a satisfied bamboo shoot.
Ye Tongxuan did not pursue him, but let the bamboo rat escape. He knew that as long as there were first-level green bamboos in the bamboo garden, it would be a matter of time before the bamboo rat came here.
Now that I don't have the right tools in my hand, chasing him rashly will only scare the snake away, and I may not be able to successfully capture the bamboo rat.
"There is no doubt that it is a bamboo rat. If we catch it, it will be a great achievement. In the future, it will be slowly domesticated and become a large scale, and it will definitely become a source of wealth for the family." Ye Tongxuan said.
"Fortunately, nephew Tongxuan is here, otherwise, with our cultivation in the middle stage of Qi refining, we wouldn't be able to catch this spiritual bamboo rat even with the right tools." Tieshan said thankfully.
Ye Tongxuan said excitedly: "This bamboo rat will definitely come here to eat again next time. Without further ado, I will go down the mountain and buy relevant equipment to avoid long nights and dreams."
Ye Shou nodded and said: "It is strictly forbidden to enter and exit the bamboo garden at will these days. Don't scare away the bamboo rats. Nephew Tongxuan, you have quick legs and feet. Please run for a while."
When the discussion reached this point, Ye Tongxuan did not hesitate and set off immediately.
After half a day of traveling, unlike the last time he went to Jiutai Mountain, Ye Tongxuan headed to Yejiafang City at almost the fastest speed this time. At noon, he arrived at Yejiafang City and found Ye Shoucheng directly.
"Uncle Eleven, a bamboo rat was discovered in Jiutai Mountain of the Ye family. I wonder if there is any suitable tool for catching it." Ye Tongxuan got straight to the point.
When the fat Ye Shoucheng heard this, he was a little in disbelief. The fat on his face was squeezed together, and he asked with some suspicion: "A spiritual bamboo rat was really discovered in Jiutai Mountain?"
"Absolutely true."
"Okay, okay, the bamboo rats are delicious. If the ninth floor of the Ye family can sell the bamboo rats in the future, they will surely earn a lot of income.
The bamboo rat is good at escaping from the soil. As long as the nearby land is hardened, the bamboo rat will not be able to escape.
The ground-binding formation has exactly this effect. I will give you a few more cages with restraints." Uncle Eleven said. After speaking, he ordered the clerk to fetch these things.
Ye Tongxuan said: "Uncle Eleven, I came down the mountain in a hurry this time, and I didn't bring any spiritual stones with me..."
Before Ye Tongxuan finished speaking, Uncle Eleven raised his hand to interrupt him and said: "You don't have to worry about this. This is to help the family, and you don't have to spend any money yourself.
If you help the family tame the bamboo rat, it will be a great achievement. You can just take the thing. By the way, this matter must be kept secret to avoid being coveted by outsiders."
"Tongxuan understands." After Ye Tongxuan got the corresponding supplies, he excused himself and hurried back to Jiutai Mountain.
In the evening, Ye Tongxuan returned to the Zhuyuan after a long journey and discussed the corresponding countermeasures with Ye Shoujing and others.
Nowadays, only Ye Tongxuan, Ye Shoujing and two Ling Zhifu are aware of the appearance of the Ling Bamboo Rat in Jiutai Mountain.
Ye Tongxuan and Ye Shoujing needless to say. As members of the Ye family, of course they hope that the Ye family will get better and better. After all, no one wants their family to fall into ruin and become the lowest level cultivator in the world of immortality.
The two Lingzhihus were deeply favored by the Ye family. They had lived in the Ye family for many years and were trustworthy.
In order to prevent the secret from leaking out, Ye Tongxuan did not plan to let anyone else get involved.
Ye Tongxuan was the first to speak: "It is recorded in medicine books that adult bamboo rats live with their spouses. This time I plan to catch both bamboo rats to facilitate their domestication later."
Ye Shoujing added: "What Tongxuan's nephew said is true. It's just that the bamboo rat is clever by nature and it's not easy to follow it secretly."
One of the spiritual planters said: "This is easy to do. You can apply the purple star flower pollen on the green bamboo. The red spirit bee is very sensitive to the purple star flower pollen. It can help us find the residence of the spiritual bamboo rat."
"That's good, just do as you say." Ye Tongxuan said.
