In the ninth year of Emperor Ai of the Song Dynasty, Yuan Yi raised his troops and broke through the 100,000 defenders of Hejian in seven days. They were routed and killed and wounded countless people.
In mid-June, most of them surrendered.
Yuan Yi founded the country, named Daliang, and established the capital.
…
Chen Yu was sitting in the courtyard, with all the things Jiang Qin'an said in his mind. The two not only talked about Taoism, but also talked about some of the situation at the foot of the mountain. Of course, most of it was the other party who talked. He only listened and occasionally echoed a few words.
The conversation was mostly about lamenting current events, sympathy for the common people, and some speculations about future changes.
The Yuan family founded the country and established the dynasty, named Daliang, and it has stood south of the river for twenty-one years.
However, the world was turbulent and not peaceful, just like the Song Dynasty before - thirty years after the founding of the country, wars and conquests never stopped for a moment.
If you really want to find peace and tranquility, you have to go all the way up in time. It was not until more than a hundred years ago that we had such good days.
At that time, the common leader of the world was still called [Zhao].
However, fifty years ago, the Gao family in the north overthrew the Zhao Dynasty, which ruled the world, and divided the north and the south.
The one in the north is called [Qi], and the one in the south is called [Song].
Then the north and south attacked each other, and uprisings and banditry sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and the suppression continued. For a time, it looked like a miserable and tragic scene of being cut off without any survivors and with corpses supporting each other.
From Yuan to Liang to Song Dynasty, there was still no peace in the world.
"What do you want to do with this?"
Chen Yu shook his head and laughed at himself, could it be possible that he could still go down the mountain and fight his way through the world by wearing fancy fists and embroidered legs?
Take a shower and go to sleep.
He is very self-aware, and as a human being, he can sympathize and lament, but he must not overestimate his own abilities.
…
Jiang Qin'an's arrival did not have much impact on Chen Yu's daily life. The greeting note sent by the other party clearly stated that the Jiuqi Guangsheng Dharma Practice was only established in early May, which was still more than a month ago.
He had enough time to prepare - in fact, he didn't have much to think about. He would probably just pack a suitcase and some money and set off.
Except for the various news brought by the other party, which gave him a little understanding of the current situation at the foot of the mountain, everything on the mountain was as usual.
So two long days passed.
There were a lot of trivial matters during this period, one of which was noteworthy was that he basically figured out the effect of the Lanting Fruit after being catalyzed by the spiritual machine. In fact, the effect was not obvious, but luckily it was noticed by the sharp-eyed Chen Yu.
Unexpectedly, this round fruit has almost no effect on the physical body, but has some mental effects.
He tried one and felt his mind became clear for a moment.
After several experiments, I finally figured out its use. At present, it seems that its effectiveness is mainly aimed at two aspects. One is to simply increase the amount of mental power - this use can only be said to be so-so, after all, there is spiritual fluid.
But there was another effect that made Chen Yu happy for a long time.
Temper your spirit and improve it qualitatively.
Undoubtedly, this effect deserves special attention, especially in the past two days, he has felt that with the continuous consumption of the spiritual liquid, his energy is not only slowly accumulating, but the growth rate is also weakening.
After tempering, you can accumulate more spiritual power.
Even though it is still unclear what the use of this ethereal power is, Chen Yu, based on the idea of promoting whatever he can, still regards the Orchid Garden Fruit as an important project for transplantation and cultivation in the next stage.
In the end, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
In addition, the fruit after the mutation tastes very good. The flesh has a slightly sweet and sour taste, which is even more crispy, and is not as soft and greasy as before.
Improve your spirit, and I will call you Lanting Divine Fruit from now on.
Holding the fruit in his hand, Chen Yu took a bite.
The Orchid Garden Fruit, which was transformed from the Orchid Garden Fruit, has two kinds of fruits. He originally thought that each had miraculous effects, but he found that they were only different in taste.
The round one tastes like an orange wrapped in a layer of crispy skin. The long and narrow eggplant-like one tastes a bit like the cantaloupe from a previous life.
But the taste is even better, especially delicious.
"If we use these to entertain Taoist Jiang, I don't know what his reaction will be."
With a chuckle, Chen Yu stuffed the rest of the fruit into his stomach in two or three mouthfuls. It was impossible to take it out because he didn't even have enough.
After successfully cultivating an Orchid Garden Fruit, there will only be divine fruits in their early twenties hanging on it. Based on the tempering and improvement speed that he has verified, it is estimated that hundreds of fruits will be needed to raise the spirit to another level.
Furthermore, he is not a ruthless machine and cannot keep stuffing food into his mouth all the time.
If you deliberately try to improve, you will fall behind.
On the other hand, except for the orchid garden fruit, the green vegetable sprouts have not been able to make any noise.
Brother Chicken is still Brother Chicken, he has not become the King of Chickens or the Wise One among Chickens.
There is more than enough recklessness, but not enough IQ.
Even though he had slapped me countless times, Brother Chicken was still so perseverant. He would start a fight when we met, and he would be defeated as soon as the fight started.
"Is it my imagination? Why does it feel like Brother Chicken has a belly??"
Thinking about it, I guess it was because I had been feeding him extra meals every day during this period, and treated each meal as a final farewell meal. After sending the chicken away, he got fat again before he was sent away.
Holding his wings, Chen Yu rubbed the other party's feathers which had become increasingly reddish due to the detoxification and nourishment of the intestines.
It feels great in the hand, even better than when I was chewing the deer a few days ago.
"No way, Brother Chicken, you can't do it just to gain weight without giving me some test data."
He had eaten the green cabbage sprouts for two or three days. During this period, he fed them twice more, but the result was still the same.
There is nothing strange about the big red rooster, there is no change in either good or bad aspects.
Finally, Chen Yu put down the rooster and went to the chicken shed to visit the hen that had eaten the Orchid Garden Fruit and was released.
What the magic fruit increases is mental power, not much. Especially when there is only half a fruit, the hen is still in a daze, but her energy is indeed much better. Now she is guarding a group of chicks running back and forth in the shed.
.
Speaking of which, if you give animals more Orchid Garden fruit, will they continue to change, become smarter, more emotional and able to think?
Chen Yu couldn't help but think that if this were true, wouldn't he become a spirit?
Then he felt that it was impossible. Without the support of the physical body, his mental power would not be able to increase infinitely.
For example, for himself, the effect of the spiritual liquid is somewhat more powerful than that of the Lanting Divine Fruit, but he still feels that the improvement has been a bit slow recently and the amplitude has dropped. If it were not for the former's ability to temper and compress, I am afraid that he has reached the limit of his mental power.
, cannot rise any further.
After retracting his thoughts and confirming that the hen had no sequelae, Chen Yu went to the utility room.
The wooden boards with grain seeds were placed here, neatly arranged into three pieces. In addition, in the past two days, he also planted the herbs he picked and the medicinal seeds bought from the pharmacy as planned.
It's just that medicinal and herbal seeds have higher environmental requirements and are far less simple to cultivate than grain-grown vegetables.
It's not just about digging some soil, it's enough to put in two grains of inspiration.
So Chen Yu could only choose. He picked some that were not picky and planted them.
There are three categories of medicines and five medicinal herbs.
They were sparsely buried in earthen pots and carefully cared for with watering and fertilizing, but three herbs still died and only two survived. They were all wilting and were about to follow the footsteps of other herbs.
Fortunately, I finally got over it. Although I didn't look very energetic at this time, I was still standing strong.
As for the grain and medicinal seeds that have not yet sprouted, it will probably take some time.
After taking a few glances, Chen Yu left. The Yuanling root in the backyard medicine field was about to be ripe, and he drank quite a bit of the spiritual fluid, especially in the past few days, when he combined the reed ginseng ointment with the spirit-calling body-building technique.
, the absorption efficiency is even higher.
"The reed ginseng paste is going to be gone, so we have to make preparations early."
After looking back at the mountain, Chen Yu felt that he had to go to the mountain again, but this time he would not go to the deep stream. He planned to go around the mountain stream in search of it.
Thanks to Lele’s Doll for the tip, and to w I go my own way w for the monthly pass. I’m also very grateful to everyone who made other comments and recommendations.
