Chapter 153 The New Atmosphere of the Soil and Soil Plug-in
Chapter 153: Living in soil and growing in soil, plug-in has a new look
When Dan Qiusheng heard the words, he did not hesitate to express his intention:
"How far do you want to go, little friend?"
"To what extent?"
Jiang Xuan couldn't help but sneered after repeating the four words:
"How far do you think it should be done, Master?"
Seeing Dan Qiusheng's silence, Jiang Xuan continued:
"Master, are you trying to say that these big families control the people's livelihood in a county, and they need to borrow their hands to transport firewood, rice, oil and salt, so things can't be done too much, and at least some people should stay to continue doing these businesses?"
Dan Qiusheng remained silent.
But Jiang Xuan could feel that this was what he meant.
So he said coldly:
"Why keep them? Continue to suck fat and blood from the people, and then use them to refine human elixirs after they have no more blood to suck?"
"Master, you have been the dean of the Academy of Arts in Sixi County for many years. Don't tell me that you don't know these dirty things."
Dan Qiusheng continued to remain silent, but his face became a bit paler and a look of dejection appeared on his face.
Jiang Xuan shook his head when he saw this:
"Sixi County is indeed inconvenient to communicate with the outside world. If you want to transport supplies, you cannot do without these families, but this was only in the past."
"But now that I am here, and since I am ready to crush these blood-sucking insects to death, I will naturally find a way to provide the daily necessities of hundreds of thousands of people in Sixi County."
"Don't worry, there won't be any trouble in Sixi County."
"Without these people lying on the heads of the people to suck blood, Sixi County will only get better and better."
In the end, Dan Qiusheng didn't speak. He just cupped his hands and bowed deeply to Jiang Xuan, sighed and then retreated into the darkness.
Jiang Xuan saw this silence, and after a while he looked at Jiang Wen who stayed where he was:
"Your teacher has left. It seems that his condition is not very good. Why don't you follow him and have a look?"
Jiang Xuan showed a hint of helplessness when he heard this:
"The teacher said that after a catastrophe, there must be a great cure, and there must be a great cure."
"Brother, if you plan to attack the major families in Sixi County, various problems will inevitably follow."
"The teacher also said that after you kill the criminals from the major families, they will probably live in the mountains to cultivate themselves. After that, you will definitely not care about people's livelihood matters."
"But if no one takes care of these things, big problems will definitely occur."
"So he asked me to stay with you to help you. He also said that there are hundreds of students in the liberal arts college at your disposal."
Hearing Jiang Wen's words, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but narrowed his eyes.
Dan Qiusheng is worthy of being a semi-sage literary cultivator, and he still sees things very thoroughly.
But it can't be said that Jiang Xuan doesn't care. He just doesn't want to take care of these miscellaneous things, but he didn't say that he won't find someone to take care of it.
Jiang Wen happened to be the first person he thought of.
It can only be said that none of the extraordinary beings who can cultivate to the fifth level are really accurate in judging people.
With thoughts swirling in his mind, Jiang Xuan then nodded to Jiang Wen:
"You might as well come over and help me."
"Cultivation of literature pays attention to self-cultivation, ordering the family, governing the country, and bringing peace to the world."
"If you can become my disciple, you must have passed the test of self-cultivation."
"With Wang Xuejun, the Qi family is almost done."
"Then it's time to govern the country."
"Although Sixi County is not big, its population is much larger than that of the vassal states in ancient times. For the time being, it is enough for you to do your best."
"If you can manage Sixi County well and make Sixi County prosperous dozens or hundreds of times, then even if you don't enter the sub-sage realm of Wenxiu Four Realms, you won't be far behind."
Jiang Wen smiled bitterly when he heard this:
"Sixi County is surrounded by mountains on three sides and faces water on one side. Travel can only be done by boat. There are still evil spirits making trouble in Yunmeng Ze. How can it be so prosperous?"
"why not?"
While leading Jiang Wen towards Jiang's house, Jiang Xuan also expressed his thoughts:
"Sixi County is remote, but it also means that no one from outside can come here, no matter how hard they fight, life or death. I say this is a good place for self-cultivation and recuperation, don't you object?"
"Nowadays, people in many places outside are struggling to make a living, and many people have begun to sell their sons and daughters. If you tell them to come to Sixi County and give them land, some of them must be willing to come, right?"
"Don't say there is no land, plow out those big families. Even if the plowing is not complete, as long as there are smart people among the people left behind, they will take the initiative to hand over their acres for peace."
"And if I can't harvest this land, it will probably fall into the hands of the county government."
"When the people from outside come, is it okay to ask the county government to take out some acres of land and distribute them to the people?"
"Also, your brother, I will prepare."
I went home and talked with Jiang Wen Bingzhuye late at night. Jiang Wen told some of his prospects for Sixi County, and Jiang Xuan also talked about some of his plans for Sixi County.
Of course, Jiang Wen told all his thoughts, while Jiang Xuan only said some selectively.
After all, the more you know, the more you think, which may not be a good thing for Jiang Wen.
In the early morning of the next day, as the golden rooster crowed, Jiang Xuan and Jiang Wen said goodbye and went back to Zhushan without seeing their families.
When you meet your family, you will probably be left to eat. If you stay to eat, you might meet the White Lotus Saint, who is mentally ill.
For safety's sake, it's better not to see him.
After returning to the mountain and watching Kang Jinlong feed the spiritual beasts on the mountain like a big brother, Jiang Xuan thought for a while and then tapped the ground twice with his foot.
Not long after, ten earth dragons broke out of the ground and came to Jiang Xuan's side.
Feeling the breath of Earth Dragon, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but shake his head.
Although we have obtained the breeding method of earth dragons, it is still troublesome for earth dragons to reproduce.
It is recorded in the earth dragon breeding method that if earth dragons want to reproduce, they must balance the five elements, and then increase the power of the five elements in the body to a certain level before they can reproduce.
This requires the use of something called five-color mud.
Five-color mud occurs naturally and in very small quantities.
The monk who sold him the earth dragon breeding method accidentally found an earth dragon in the five-color mud, and discovered that the earth dragon laid eggs in the five-color mud. He then figured out the rules of earth dragon reproduction.
Then he spent decades refining the five-color clay, and then combined the conditions for earth dragon reproduction with the five-color clay refining method into one, and created the earth dragon reproduction method.
The breeding method is indeed correct, but it takes three years for earth dragons to reproduce once, with 1-3 animals being reproduced each time.
When the base number is large, the earth dragons will naturally reproduce very quickly.
It's a pity that the base number of the Earth Dragon in Jiang Xuan's hand is a bit small.
I don't know how long it will take to get them to reproduce.
"It would be great if you guys could reproduce as quickly as the chickens and ducks."
With a sigh, Jiang Xuan then pointed to a small hilly hill about 270 meters high behind Zhushan:
"To reclaim that mountain, I want a layer of fertile soil up to two meters thick."
"As for the fields, they are cultivated into terraced fields, with each field covering an area of one acre."
The ten earth dragons nodded to Jiang Xuan at the same time, and then got back into the ground.
Soon, the small hill that Jiang Xuan pointed to changed.
First, the old trees on the short mountain began to collapse. Soon after, the collapsed old trees, including the flowers and vines around them, seemed to blend into the ground and disappeared without any reason.
Then the exposed rocks began to raise waves of dust, but before the dust could reach higher, traces of water stains appeared on the ground.
After the water stains appeared, the stone powder and dust that had been crushed into powder formed a small vortex.
After a while, traces of steam began to emerge from the small vortex. When it disappeared, where was the swamp left?
What is left is just a dark, fertile land.
Looking at the terraced fields that quickly appeared on the small hill, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but have a hint of wonder in his eyes.
"Sure enough, with three hundred and sixty lines, he will be the number one scholar."
"The earthworms that have been transformed into semen are used to clear wasteland, cultivate land, and fertilize the land. Not to mention the efficiency, the cultivated land is also ridiculously fertile."
"If these lands were put outside, they would be called good farmland by the people, right?"
After sighing with emotion, Jiang Xuan felt clear in his heart when he looked at the fertile fields that were quickly reclaimed.
The fact that mountainous areas can turn into fertile farmland in a short period of time is entirely the result of the combination of earth dragons with multiple attributes.
The wood attribute dragon devours vegetation and feeds the essence of the vegetation back into the earth.
The earth-type earth dragon can crack mountains and crack rocks, directly crushing those rocks into powder.
The water-attribute earth dragon nourishes the earth, turning dry powdery soil into a mire.
The fire-attribute earth dragon roasts the swamp, evaporating excess water to form fertile soil.
Metallic earthworms clean up pests and kill those pests hidden deep in the fields one by one to prevent them from damaging crops.
The five types of earth dragons all have the ability to fertilize the soil. Only by working together can fertile fields be formed so quickly.
If it were just an earth dragon with only one attribute, it would not be able to achieve this level in a short period of time.
"The bottom of the short mountain has a diameter of about 1,260 meters and a height of about 270 meters. That means the exposed area of the mountain is almost 1.356 square kilometers. When converted into acres, it is 2,034 acres."
"Including the area occupied by field ridges, streams, etc., approximately 2,000 acres of fertile farmland can be reclaimed."
"In other words, if we open up five more of such a big mountain, we will have 10,000 acres of fertile land?"
After smacking his mouth, Jiang Xuan looked at the boundless Cangwu Mountains.
"If these hills are developed, how much fertile land will there be?"
"Don't dare to think, don't dare to think."
Shaking his head and no longer thinking about what was there and what was not, Jiang Xuan then took out the Xi soil.
How do you call this thing soil? It is no different from ordinary soil.
It just contains enough spiritual energy, and it has all five elements, so it can plant anything.
He swept away the ashes in the incense burner and took out one-tenth of the soil. The moment his fingers touched the soil, Jiang Xuan suddenly had a flash of enlightenment in his mind.
"Soil, the essence of soil, is born when it comes into contact with water and nourishes all things."
The first thing that came to Jiang Xuan's mind were these thirteen words.
In addition, Jiang Xuan also felt that there was a vague connection between himself and Xi Ran.
He felt that he could control the breath soil.
After the soil meets water, whether it wants to grow and where it will grow is all determined by Jiang Xuan's thoughts.
And except for the half-fist-sized breath soil in the incense burner, other derived breath soil does not have the ability to expand and generate interest.
"So this half-fist-sized piece of soil can be called breath soil, and the breath soil that has been breathed out can only be called breath soil at most."
"If you want to use soil to grow, you have to gather enough soil. The amount should be at least the size of two thumbs."
"That is, the soil is half the size of a fist and can only be divided into five parts at most?"
While thinking, Jiang Xuan once again took out one-tenth of the soil, and then got another piece of information.
These two pieces of soil the size of a thumb can only expand a million cubic meters of soil.
How many million cubic meters are there?
It sounds like a lot, but it's actually not much.
If the depth of an acre is taken as one meter, one million cubic meters is equivalent to one million square meters of fertile land. When converted into acres, it is 1,500 acres, which cannot even fill a small hill.
"I wonder if breath soil can be mixed with ordinary soil."
With the thought, Jiang Xuan threw the soil in his hand to the edge of the cold pool.
The next moment, the breath soil that absorbed the water vapor began to expand rapidly, giving birth to countless breath soils.
Following Jiang Xuan's thoughts, these soils covered the fertile fields almost instantly.
After looking at the cold pool water that seemed to have not diminished at all, Jiang Xuan immediately fell on a lush ginseng plant in the fertile field:
"Ginseng essence, how do you feel?"
As Jiang Xuan finished speaking, the ginseng root donated by Zhang San shook its leaves, then pulled himself out of the fertile field and ran to Jiang Xuan's side.
That’s right, after all this time, this ginseng has finally matured:
"Master, I don't feel much after adding an extra layer of soil. It just adds more spiritual energy, which makes me accumulate spiritual energy faster."
"And those little ginsengs will grow about five times faster."
Jiang Xuan nodded after hearing this.
Five points is 5%, which is quite a lot.
After all, fertile fields were created by him through cheating, which is a bit too magical. Breathing soil can increase the growth rate by 5%, which is already an unexpected surprise.
And now we only cover the fertile fields with a thin layer. What will happen if we cover more?
In the blink of an eye, Jiang Xuan controlled the living soil to regenerate, allowing the living soil to cover ten centimeters above the farmland, and then looked at the ginseng essence again:
"Take root and see the effect of the soil."
Hearing this, the ginseng essence swung its branches and leaves, and then took root deeply into the ground:
"It's still the same as before, nothing has changed."
Jiang Xuan nodded thoughtfully, then a thought came to his mind,
The next moment the fertile fields surged, and the ten centimeter-high layer of soil was swallowed up by the fertile fields.
Then Jiang Xuan received two messages from Golden Finger.
The first message is that after swallowing the resting soil, the fertile fields will have the ability of the resting soil to grow and nourish all things.
Of course, fertile land already has the ability to grow and support all things, and fertile soil only brings a slight bonus to it, that is, it can accelerate the growth rate of plants by 5%.
The 5% here refers to the 5% when the farmland is in good condition.
If fertile fields evolve into spiritual fields, then the 5% bonus will only be reduced to five thousandths, or even less.
As for the second piece of information, it is that the soil that comes out when the soil comes into contact with water does not have any magical properties, it is just ordinary soil.
The ability to grow and sustain all things is entirely due to the ability given to it by the soil.
Therefore, Xitu does not have any spirituality, and swallowing it will not increase the double material.
That is to say, Jiang Xuan's idea of earning double income by brushing interest soil came to nothing.
He knelt down and poked the fertile field with his fingers. Although his thoughts were in vain, Jiang Xuan's eyes were extremely bright at this moment.
Since fertile fields can swallow up the resting soil and gain the ability of the resting soil, can they also swallow up the resting soil and gain the ability of the resting soil?
Looking at the soil in his hand that could be divided into four parts, Jiang Xuan thought for a while and then took off one of the parts, then handed it over to Liangtian to devour.
During the devouring period, Jiang Xuan also gave the order to the plug-in, which was to devour the ability of the living soil to generate life, rather than simply swallowing the spirituality of the living soil.
As the order was issued, Jiang Xuan could feel that the entire fertile field began to move. Even the bitter bamboo began to move automatically without wind. The friction of the bamboo leaves made a rustling sound, as if it was swallowing hard.
And the devouring time this time did indeed take longer than usual to devouring various items.
After a full five hours, Kuzhu gave Jiang Xuan feedback.
And Jiang Xuan also had a big smile on his face.
His idea succeeded.
Although he didn't get half a pack of fertilizer by devouring the soil this time, in Jiang Xuan's opinion, Gold Finger's new ability was much more useful than any fertilizer he could get.
After devouring the living soil, fertile fields also gained the ability to generate interest.
However, the interest-generating multiple is not as exaggerated as the interest-generating soil, and the effect of the interest-generated fields is also reduced.
After devouring the fertile soil, on the basis of one acre of fertile farmland, Golden Finger can also expand to a hundred acres of thin farmland.
If fertile farmland is once again upgraded to spiritual farmland, then on the basis of one acre of spiritual farmland, the 100 acres of thin farmland outside can be upgraded to fertile farmland.
In other words, the derived 100-acre field will always be one level lower than the core field.
But this is also very powerful.
You must know that upgrading the gold finger to one level will expand the area ten times. A small piece of soil is equivalent to two levels of gold finger.
You may not be able to see much in the early stage, but if you look at it in the later stage, this newly gained ability will be a bit outrageous.
"So, should we let Goldfinger swallow up the soil again and see if we can continue to expand the scope of the derived acres?"
Just as he was about to continue trying, Jiang Xuan felt something and was stunned for a moment before looking towards his feet.
The next moment, ten earth dragons broke out of the ground in unison, and then swayed in front of Jiang Xuan.
"You said you want to swallow the soil that just appeared. That soil can accelerate your growth?"
The ten earth dragons stopped swinging and nodded in unison.
This scene is quite interesting to be honest.
Smiling and shaking his head, Jiang Xuan then let the Xitu give birth to another Xitu, then pointed at the newly appeared Xitu and said to the earth dragons:
"This resting soil belongs to you, but the resting soil cannot be touched."
Upon hearing this, the earth dragons immediately exuded a burst of joy, and then they all shot to the resting soil.
After a while, one-tenth of the breath soil was lost, and the ten earth dragons were also full, indicating that they could still work.
Turning his head to look at the small hill that had been dug out, Jiang Xuan immediately pointed to another short hill next to it:
"Create that mountain peak into fertile farmland."
Hearing this, the earth dragons nodded their heads together again, and then quickly got to the top of the mountain pointed by Jiang Xuan and began to work.
Seeing Dilongmen working hard, the smile on Jiang Xuan's face became even bigger.
The effect of the breath soil is much better than the five-color mud he refined.
Think about it, the five-color mud has all the five elements, and the breath soil also has the five elements. If you can swallow the five-color mud to complete the five elements, why can't you swallow the breath soil to complete the five elements?
But thinking of this, Jiang Xuan took out another ball of Five Elements Clay.
"The breath soil that comes out of it has almost no aura, and is almost the same as ordinary soil."
"The spiritual light emitted by Five Elements Mud is much stronger than that of Xitu."
"But why is the effect of earth dragons swallowing breath soil better than that of swallowing five-color mud?"
"Is it because resting soil is easy to digest, or is it because everything in the world cannot be generalized by spiritual light?"
After thinking over and over again with no result, Jiang Xuan suppressed the problem in his heart, and then threw a portion of soil into the fertile fields again.
