"The king asked him... to clean up. Bah, bah, those damn loaches are getting carried away by chanting slogans every day!" Outside Qiuping's temple, a red-shell crab held a scraper in its right claw.
, feebly cleaning the moss on the floor and walls.
Since crabs are really not suitable for digging holes, the loaches no longer want to take him with them when they go out to drill holes.
But there were no idle fish in the ancient well, so Qiu Yi arranged for him to clean the temple.
"Whenever I succeed in my practice, I will definitely demote all those loaches as slaves and work for him every day. Especially the leader, who will wipe his butt and carry the urinal." Crab used a shovel.
He picked up a piece of moss on the ground and thought viciously in his heart.
"Speaking of which, that big loach doesn't know what to do in the temple every day. He's not bored either... Hey, what's going on tomorrow?"
Crab walked to the gate of the temple and was about to scan the gate as usual, but when he saw that the gate was ajar, curiosity suddenly arose in his heart.
He quietly lay down in front of the door and looked out through the crack of the half-open door.
In his sight, the temple floor was filled with various spiritual minerals and elixirs, and a huge flag was flying among the piles of spiritual minerals.
Isn't it surprising that there is no one around?
"Hahaha, Sea-Flowing Flag, his Sea-Flowing Flag!" Crab rushed over sideways, hugging his own Sea-Flowing Flag, touching and kissing it.
"Little Loach, no matter how cunning and cunning I am, there will always be times when I slack off. All those spiritual minerals and elixirs belong to him!" He held up the minerals on the ground, and a sinister look appeared on his face hidden in the shadows.
.
"Oh, there is a very good skill there. Look... it turns out... it is the "Guilong Manual" that can only be practiced by the True Dragon Clan of the East China Sea. Well, well, I heard that there is a trace of dragon blood in his blood, so I asked him
After nine rounds of skill, he may not be able to become the first true dragon of his Crab clan." He turned over a pile of ores and discovered a skill in the east, and his eyes almost popped out of his head.
"With those resources and those skills, I want to rise!" Crab's heart surged with endless pride, and he felt that he was the son of the Tao, and his future would be smooth.
"Hey hey hey, stinky loach, let's just wait. Let Grandpa Crab sweep the floor and drill holes, that's the way to death..." He held the Sea-Returning Flag with one pair of pliers, and the "Guilong Manual" with the other pliers, his face
Showing bursts of sneer.
He was smiling when suddenly his body shook uncontrollably.
"Hey, is there an earthquake? ...No, run!" He felt the shaking getting more and more violent, and everything around him began to break. Occasionally, you can see a favorite loach in the broken scene.
Xuan.
"Hey, wake up, what are you dreaming about in the red sky?" Crab shook his head vigorously, only to find a tall and ugly fishman standing in front of him, but he couldn't bear to look at Qiu Yi.
But at this moment, he was lying at the door of the temple, holding a shovel with pliers and a dustpan with pliers, with a silly smile on his face.
"Where is his sea-turning flag? Where is his "Guilong Manual"?" He looked at his pair of pincers blankly, where had the opportunity he just obtained gone?
"I admire his flag, I admire his skills, he's going to fight with me!" Crab was furious, begging Qiu Yi to fight, but was slapped to the ground.
"Wow..." Crab walked on the ground in a daze and cried loudly. The shrill voice made the listener sad and the listener shed tears.
Qiu Yi looked at his legs blankly. He didn't use any strength. Why was the baby crying so loudly?
As for Qiu Ping, the initiator of all that, the lunar eclipse in his eyes slowly dissipated, and the crab-faced smile successfully transferred to his face.
Not bad, not bad. It is worthy of the magical power passed down from the East by his ancestor. It can not only increase mental strength, but also has very powerful hallucinogenic ability. It will be a great addition to his strength.
Everything the red-shell crab saw just now was an illusion caused by Qiu Ping's "Moon Eclipse Curse" magical power.
…
"Huhuhu."
Qiu Ping flew up in the air, and as he opened his mouth, a large amount of water vapor settled into the depths of the earth. The humidity in the entire Huang'ao Village was maintained at a very low level.
After entering the [Ancestral Aperture] realm, his strength skyrocketed, and his Taoism was almost three hundred years old.
In this way, he can regulate water energy more easily.
A job that originally took three or four hours can now be completed in one hour.
The sunshine in late autumn and early winter is not bright, but it has a warm, marshmallow-like texture.
The people outside the village dumped the grain in the threshing floor and turned over the rice over and over again. The soft sunshine also made the grain fragrant and sweet.
At that moment, the mountains were golden, the earth was golden, and the sky was also golden.
Huang'ao Village is immersed in the joy of harvest.
Next year's yield will be slightly higher than last year, and each household will receive an extra three to five bushels. For farmers, is this a huge blessing?
Everyone looked at the rice on the ground with a smile, groping with their rough legs from time to time, and occasionally peeling off a grain of rice and throwing it into their mouths.
The mixture of astringency and rice fragrance made them feel satisfied.
What is not a peaceful and prosperous age? But eating food is not a peaceful confinement.
"Have our tasks for next year been completed? Qiu Ping, I will work hard next year too." The Tudong didn't know when he appeared next to Qiu Ping. He looked at the rice on the ground with a smile and kept stroking his beard.
.
There will be a bumper harvest next year, and they are worried that next year's Shinto rating will be among the worst.
"Jingle Bell."
Near noon, a series of crisp bells rang, and several people were seen walking in from outside the village, leading mules and horses.
That sound was made by the bells on the mules and horses' necks.
"The grain harvester is here. Everyone has prepared their own grains. Don't waste time." The village leader called everyone to the threshing floor and shouted.
"What are you doing then?" Qiu Ping looked at everything in the east curiously.
Huangao Village rarely sees outsiders, but after those few people came, the atmosphere in the village was obviously good.
The originally cheerful atmosphere suddenly dropped a lot.
"The wealthy households in the city and the government offices have come to collect grain. The fields in Huang'ao Village belong to the wealthy households in the city. The common people living in the village are just tenant farmers. Half of the grain grown every year must be paid to the farmers."
By wealthy households and yamen." The Tudong had seen this kind of thing countless times, and he had long been offended by it.
"So many requests for friendship?" Qiu Ping was surprised. The farmers had worked hard to serve the harvest for half a year, but they could only keep half of it?
"That's not common sense. If it's good farmland, it's not common for wealthy households to get 60% of the money." The landowner felt that Qiu Ping was making such a fuss. Has this been the case since ancient times?
