Ranch Story: Start Over

Chapter 22: Rain Prayer

Women, coaxing makes them sweeter

Feng Ling could only circle around following the strength of Lin's hand. This woman was a tiger and would beat people up if she disagreed with him.

"I was wrong, I was wrong, Senior Sister, please let go."

"You know you're wrong. I was trying to help you, but you said that to me. It's like you're guarding against thieves."

When Feng Ling heard her asking for help, he lowered his head and coaxed her:

"That's not true, Senior Sister. You are welcome to come next time. You can come whenever you want. I will leave food for you. As long as you take good care of my ranch, I will cook whatever you want."

Seeing Feng Ling looking at her with a flattering expression, Lin snorted a few times before letting go of her hand. Feng Ling continued to apologize and finally managed to calm the old lady down.

"Sister, please take a rest first. Sorry for bothering you. I'll need your help later."

"That's pretty much it."

Seeing that Lin was no longer angry, Feng Ling hurriedly seized the time to sow the seeds. This girl's magic power must have almost recovered, otherwise she wouldn't have the strength to twist her ears. Didn't you see her previous appearance? She could hardly stand steadily. Thinking of this, Feng Ling was surprised.

Why didn't I feel dizzy? I was told that I would feel dizzy if I overdrew my magic power. Why didn't I react as I got closer to 0 o'clock?

Could it be?

Feng Ling suddenly thought of a possibility. Could it be that the 600 in his character panel was just the mana in a normal state, and he could overdraw and enter a state of fatigue?

But Feng Ling didn't dare to try it. If he really fainted, his grandfather would worry. If he had no time to take care of the crops, it would affect the growth and development of the plants and he would not be able to make any money.

After considering these consequences, Feng Ling quickly gave up the idea in his mind.

The magic power in the character panel has been exhausted. Feng Ling put all the onion seeds in the backpack and sowed them one by one in the center of the soil. He has to work hard now, and it will depend on Lin later.

The sun was shining brightly, and Feng Ling continued to work under the scorching sun. Only then did he truly realize how difficult life was for farmers in this world. On the one hand, everyone was short of food and needed food. On the other hand, the principality also needed food, which led to the situation where almost everyone was a farmer.

Even the powerful people in the city have to rely on a large number of farmers to feed themselves. Exploitation? Suppression? No, these farmers are very arrogant. In ancient times, some went to Guandong to escape famine, and now they rob people. Policies are constantly being introduced in various places to absorb refugees, increase population and improve production capacity.

If you can't stay here anymore, you can just leave your hometown and go live in other lords' places. You have to know that the talents in this world are the most valuable.

Now, Feng Ling thought of his most loyal friends, the seven dwarfs. Where were they? The game said they were behind the church, but now he didn't even know where the church was. It felt really bad to be in the dark.

Feng Ling certainly didn't know that the church he had been dreaming of had not yet been built and the bishop was still on his way to Mineral Town. It was not until the mayor and the bishop had discussed the details that they decided to build a church in Mineral Town.

……

Feng Ling finally finished all the work. He was lying on the side of the field gasping for breath due to exhaustion. The sun at this time was finally not as scorching as it was at three o'clock. Feng Ling squinted his eyes, wiped the sweat from his forehead and body with a towel, felt a gust of cool breeze and twisted his body comfortably.

"Feng Ling, move away quickly. I'll help you water the plants."

"Ah, Senior Sister, you are so kind."

Regardless of his tiredness, Feng Ling quickly got up, packed up the farm tools around him, and then moved away from the cultivated land.

Lin looked at the neatly laid out farmland where Feng Ling had dug seed holes one by one with a small hoe, put in the seeds, and then cultivated the soil. He did all the work by himself, and it looked very hard. This boy worked harder than she had imagined.

Lin, who had been observing Feng Ling from the side, reminded him when she saw Feng Ling finally finished, saying that she was ready to help him and she kept her word.

Lin walked to the front of the farmland and gathered magic power. Countless blue energies flew towards Lin from the nearby rivers, ponds, and vegetation. Feng Ling could see the huge water ball of energy very clearly.

"Rain-praying technique!"

The majestic blue energy rushed into the sky above the farmland. In just over ten seconds, Feng Ling watched the dark clouds in the sky begin to gather.

This dark cloud doesn't look big, but its color is getting darker and darker, and the cloud seems to be getting heavier.

It felt like a downpour was about to happen. However, compared to the bright sunshine around, it was still a little strange. It was already past five in the afternoon, and although the sun was still high in the sky, the temperature was not as hot as before.

A gust of wind blew, and the dark clouds in the sky finally began to drizzle. Feng Ling looked at this magical spell and suddenly discovered a fatal problem: he did not know how to pray for rain!

Feng Ling quickly opened the mall and found the magic skill series in the magic options.

The price of the Rain Prayer in the mall is a blinding 50. Level magic is so expensive that one has to cross a level to learn it.

Feng Ling was a little panicked. If the prices in the system mall were so high, then if Lin was studying at the magic academy, would the prices be even more terrifying?

Just as he thought, the price the Magic Academy charged for each mage scroll that increased the growth rate and harvest of crops was outrageous.

Because the maker of the magic scroll was a famous magician, ordinary people like them were not even qualified to borrow it, let alone copy it. It was impossible for them to study magic above level 3"2 by themselves, and there was no way they could compare to the accumulation of magic academies for thousands of years.

Although there are some suspicions of monopoly, in the final analysis it is because the magic academy is responsible for everyone. In this world, magic is not something you can learn without a teacher just because you are talented. Having a good magic teacher is the key, and guiding teaching is their necessary means.

The main reason why Lin knew this magic was that her family was rich. They spent 100 million to teach her based on the magician's evaluation of her. After confirming that Lin's compatibility with this skill was over 60%, she learned this spell. After she learned this spell, Dart Ranch had a fixed wizard to help manage the ranch.

Feng Ling looked at the drizzle falling from the sky. Although the area was not large, the area of ​​local rain had already covered a large area of ​​arable land under the cloud.

"Senior Sister, how large an area can your rain-praying technique cover?"

Lin was concentrating on manipulating her magic power and continuously outputting it to the sky. When she heard him ask:

"Using half of my magic power can cover an area of ​​nearly 3000 square meters. Don't bother me!"

"Ah, okay, Senior Sister. You're busy."

When a magician manipulates magic, he needs to mobilize a large amount of magic power to guide the magic energy. Therefore, the spellcasting process cannot be interrupted at will, otherwise there may be a backlash, which may cause internal injuries or even death. Feng Ling recalled the memory of the original owner and quickly shut up, then slowly walked behind Lin and looked at her like a good child.

The rain over the farmland did not last long. Considering that Feng Ling had just opened up these farmlands, they were very soft. Lin only provided enough water to the seed soil layer. More water would likely cause soil and water collapse. She was very experienced in this regard, so she stopped in time.

When Feng Ling saw that Lin had finished casting the spell, he quickly got up and walked barefoot to the field. At a glance, he found that all the places where he had planted the seeds had been watered. The effect of magic watering was very quick.

"Sister, thank you so much. How about you come and help me water the plants every day, and I'll make you something delicious."

"You wishful thinking, I just helped you out because I felt so sorry for you and your magic power was not enough on your own. You are still dreaming about watering the plants every day!"

A proud expression appeared on Lin's face, but seeing Lin's fingers rubbing constantly, Feng Ling was speechless. Wasn't it all for food? She even acted like she was not in a good position to treat grandpa.

Feng Ling quickly climbed up the pole, "Senior Sister, please be kind and just help water the seeds until they sprout. It will be quick."

"Three days, you said so. After three days, you'll be on your own. I'm helping you because I see you have nothing when you first come here."

"Don't worry, it will only take three days, just wait for them to grow out."

Seeing that Lin was willing to help him, Feng Ling quickly promised to teach her how to make a snack in the evening, and only then did she suppress her arrogant expression.

"Feng Ling, do you know how long it takes for your seeds to mature?"
