Zhang Zhixuan got the recipe for brewing spiritual wine, and immediately bought a batch of spiritual rice from the market and started brewing according to the recipe.
Compared with refining alchemy and refining tools, brewing wine is naturally much easier once you have the recipe.
Zhang Zhixuan pondered for several months, cultivated the koji according to the recipe, and successfully brewed the first pot of spiritual wine.
After the brewing was successful, Zhang Zhixuan taught several apprentices step by step and stopped taking part in it, leaving it to some monks with lower cultivation levels.
In just one or two months, Zhang Zhixuan spent four to five hundred spiritual stones, purchased five thousand kilograms of various spiritual rice, brewed fifty jars of spiritual wine, and then transported these spiritual wines back to Lushan and placed them in a place with sufficient spiritual energy.
It was stored in the wine cellar, and the elixir was added to brew it into a spiritual wine.
After more than three years of cellaring, these spiritual wines will contain the medicinal effects of the elixir and become various medicinal wines with different effects.
Starting from this year, Zhang Zhixuan will draw out a part of the spirit stones every year to brew dozens of jars of spirit wine. In a few years, this batch of spirit wine will not only serve as a benefit to the family, but can also be continuously exchanged for spirit stones in the market.
When Zhang Zhixuan had just finished brewing the spirit wine, his seventh uncle Zhang Mengyuan hurried to Fangshi. As soon as he saw Zhang Zhixuan, he couldn't hold back the joy in his heart and said: "Zhixuan, go back and take a look. It seems that there is something happening in the white jade honeycomb."
Queen Bee.”
Hearing that a queen bee was finally born in the white jade bee nest, Zhang Zhixuan felt ecstatic in his heart. He excitedly grabbed Qibo's shoulders and said: "If there is a queen bee, we should go back and see it immediately."
Once there is a queen bee in the hive, white jade bees will be born continuously. This hive will have the ability to continue to produce blood. As long as no major changes occur, this hive will be able to settle down in the spiritual field and last for many years.
Although there are only a few dozen white jade bees now, the honey produced every year is still very small, and can only be sold for a few spiritual stones. Most of this honey is eaten as welfare by the monks who cultivate the spiritual fields.
If the queen bee appears, the hive population can expand tenfold, and the royal jelly produced by the queen bee will be a very important income for the family.
Upon hearing that a queen bee was born in the hive, Zhang Zhixuan immediately put down what he was doing and rushed to the center of the spiritual field with his seventh uncle Zhang Mengyuan.
Zhang Zhixuan has been away for several years, and Lingtian has changed greatly.
In recent years, due to the continuous use of spiritual water for irrigation, the family has opened up two more acres of spiritual land.
With the second-level mid-grade spiritual veins, it can already provide a certain amount of spiritual energy, and the family has dispatched three monks to station in the spiritual field all year round.
There are also two protective formations in the spiritual field. One is the original second-level high-grade enigmatic formation. Its main function is to hide the spiritual field.
Another formation is the water formation contributed by Zhang Zhixuan.
The formation level of this formation is only the second-level mid-level. The formation altar and formation flags were all bought from Qi Bo. The most important formation plate came from the casual cultivators of Xihefang.
This formation disk is made from the bones of monster beasts. It used to be of a very high grade, a formation disk of level three or above. Unfortunately, it has not been nurtured by spiritual energy for hundreds of years, and now it has lost its spirituality.
Although after being nurtured in the spiritual veins for several years, the formation disk was barely improved and became a second-level mid-level, but when the formation disk is completely restored to its original appearance, it may take hundreds of years to be nurtured in the spiritual veins.
This water formation is mainly used to protect the most important two acres of medicine garden.
Most of the dozens of Pearl Spirit Grasses in the medicine garden have been growing for two to three hundred years. They are the most valuable assets of the family besides the Lushan Spirit Veins, and must not be lost.
Zhang Zhixuan carefully came to the beehive. He stared at a huge white bee carefully and said quietly to Zhang Mengyuan: "Looking at the situation, it should be the queen bee. I carefully checked the insect spectrum, and it should be correct."
Ever since the hive killed each other, the surviving female bees immediately fell into a coma. Unexpectedly, a few years later, a queen bee actually evolved. This is really God's blessing!
Zhang Mengyuan said happily: "In recent years, since the Xihefang Incident, our family has finally found peace.
Not only did you bring back the Youhuan Dan from the Southern Wilderness, but a queen bee also evolved in the hive. With the queen bee, royal jelly can be produced, and the family will have another good thing.
This kind of spiritual substance is very effective in recovering injuries. If you take some of it to the clan leader, he will get better quickly, and then we can all feel more relaxed."
Although he was happy in his heart, Zhang Zhixuan still did not get carried away. He still warned in detail: "The queen bee has just evolved, and its grade is still very low. It is only a first-grade low-grade. When it is cultivated into a fully mature third-grade white jade queen bee, it will take about
Hundreds of years.
During this period, everyone should be careful. Except for collecting honey, they should not easily disturb the hive or disturb the queen bee in the hive."
Although Zhang Zhixuan is young, his family status has surpassed that of Zhang Mengyuan. His words cannot be taken lightly, and they all said: "Don't worry, elder!
We will plant some spiritual flowers in an acre of spiritual field near the beehive next year. We will never come here easily again except when collecting honey every year.
And we will send special personnel to keep an eye on this place. If there is any abnormality in the hive, we will notify the mountain so that you can come to support at any time."
Seeing that everyone was not careless, Zhang Zhixuan also smiled and said: "That's good. This place will become more and more important in the future, and the family will gradually increase the resources invested here to cultivate higher-level spiritual veins.
As the spiritual veins improve, more family monks can be sent down the mountain. With more people stationed and more powerful, we can open up more spiritual fields.
Therefore, as long as the family's development momentum is good, a virtuous cycle can be formed, and everyone's life will be better."
Zhang Zhixuan stayed in the spiritual field for more than ten days, carefully observing the white jade bee nest. Seeing that the queen bee had no abnormality at all, he returned to Lushan.
Ever since he became the family elder, Zhang Zhixuan has become accustomed to the three-point-one-line life. Every day he is either in Fangshi, Lingtian, or Lushan.
Zhang Zhixuan had just returned to the mountain gate and saw Qingchan standing attractively on the roadside. When he saw Zhang Zhixuan coming up, a smile appeared on his face.
Now Qingchan is seventeen years old and has grown into a tall and graceful girl. She is standing on the roadside with all her charm, quietly waiting for Zhang Zhixuan.
"Xiao Qingchan, how did you know I was coming back today?" Zhang Zhixuan asked strangely. He returned to the mountain gate today without basically notifying anyone. He didn't know where Qingchan heard the news, so he went down the mountain in advance to greet me.
Even now, Qingchan still couldn't speak. She gently pointed to her heart and made a few gestures.
Zhang Zhixuan wanted to touch her forehead, but suddenly found that Qingchan had grown up, and her height had exceeded Zhang Zhixuan's shoulders.
"I know what you mean. You felt that I was coming back today, so you came down early. I have to say, Xiao Qingchan, your feeling is very accurate." Zhang Zhixuan was joking, but his heart became increasingly heavy.
.
As his cultivation level increased and his knowledge became wider and wider, Zhang Zhixuan knew that Qingchan's situation was a bit unusual. There was nothing wrong with her body, but she was still unable to speak. It was mainly a problem with her soul.
I heard from a friend of Liu Hushan's that when Qingchan was just born, an old Taoist priest came to her family to beg for alms, and she was named after this old Taoist priest.
This person's behavior is very suspicious.
Zhang Zhixuan knew that decades ago, there was a casual cultivator dressed as a wandering Taoist priest who was good at using newborn babies to refine an evil magic weapon called the Divine Infant Sword.
To refine a divine infant sword, it is often necessary to kill ninety-nine babies less than a hundred days old.
Because there is innate Qi in the baby's body, even if this magic weapon is just refined, it will be a second-level high-grade magic weapon. Every time an opponent is killed, the death Qi generated by the corpse can be absorbed to increase the level.
This kind of magic weapon can continuously improve its level as long as it kills many people. Its preciousness exceeds that of third-level magic weapons.
Such great benefits led countless casual cultivators to worship him as their teacher and learn his methods to refine the Divine Infant Sword.
In the end, this incident aroused the anger of the four major immortal cultivating sects in the Yu Kingdom. They sent the Zifuqi monks to come forward and massacre the demonic cultivators who refined the evil magic weapons.
It took almost seventy or eighty evil cultivators being killed in succession before this matter was suppressed.
In the following decades, no monk dared to refine the Divine Infant Sword in the Yu Kingdom.
However, as far as Zhang Zhixuan knew, the evil cultivator who refined the Divine Infant Sword had an important disciple who survived. This man worshiped his teacher and was also dressed as a wandering Taoist priest.
Perhaps it was this wandering Taoist priest who had disappeared without a trace that had done something to Qingchan, causing her to lose her ability to speak.
If the soul is incomplete, there will be great hidden dangers when building the foundation. Even if Qingchan is really a Tianlinggen monk, he may be in danger of his life if he builds the foundation rashly.
