Rise of Nongmen

After staying by the rippling lake for a moment, Ye Chen immediately turned to two spiritual fields, one east and one west.

Lingzhi does not grow well as long as it has vitality, it also needs a suitable environment, if not, then it has to be carefully taken care of, but at the moment the Lingtian is only growing high-quality ordinary rice seeds, he has been away for so long, but it will grow It is lush and lush, it doesn't look like growing in the desert at all, but the growth is better than the original place, no wonder Doctor Liu is keenly aware of the difference here, and then stays.

Tonight, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse. Ye Chen already has strong five senses. After becoming a monk, he can see things more clearly. With the help of moonlight, although it is not as clear as in the daytime, he can still see things roughly. If he releases his soul power, then It is even more detailed, and it has nothing to do with whether it is bright or not.

During Ye Chen's absence, Lingtian was well taken care of. Of course, it was just ordinary weeding, pest control and watering, which had little effect on Bijaponica's absorption of vitality.But it is only almost. After completing these steps, the growth environment will definitely improve. Even if the change is very small, it can also enhance the physical fitness of the Japonica rice, which is conducive to the absorption of spiritual energy.

Ye Chen leaned over and took a closer look, and found that the Bijaponica rice was far from its original appearance. It seemed that it was expected to become a spiritual plant, and it really deserved to be an excellent variety.If it is replaced by a common variety, it is possible to die, just like when humans suddenly enter a high-oxygen environment, it may not be good for the body, it is more likely to be oxygen poisoning, and the same is true for plants.

Ye Chen took a deep breath. The air here is fresh, without the slightest feeling of being in the desert, and more importantly, it is full of vitality.Obviously, the grade of the Japonica rice is too low, no, it should be said that it has not yet entered the stream, and the consumption cannot match the speed of the Yuan Qi gathering, so it accumulates more and more.

Ye Chen performed the Cloud and Rain Jue to Lingtian once, then sat down on the ridge of the field, held his breath, and entered the cultivation state after a while.

The effect was immediate, the aura rushed towards Ye Chen crazily, but he himself was totally unaware that he was in a state of sedation, and he didn't get out of that mysterious state until there was a "pop" sound, something seemed to shatter.Feeling his body carefully, his face couldn't hide his joy. He actually made a breakthrough in one fell swoop, and entered the second realm from Qi Condensation Realm. Moreover, his cultivation didn't stop there, and continued to rise until the late stage of the second realm. .

The corners of Ye Chen's mouth turned up unconsciously, rejoicing at his own changes, but when he looked up, he found that the rice stalks had all drooped down, his spirits were listless, and he looked devastated.

Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized that he absorbed the vitality crazily just now, not only exhausting the vitality accumulated in the gathering array for many days, but also plundering the vitality in Bijaponica's body. In this case, it is good not to die immediately Yes, fortunately he had just performed the Cloud and Rain Jue, otherwise he might really have gotten two pieces of dry rice from the spiritual field, and all the painstaking efforts he had put in before would have been in vain.

Ye Chen stood up and felt the changes in his body, his body became lighter, he could reach a height of Zhang Xu with a light leap, and he could stride forward casually for a few meters, he really felt like a monk.

Although he was fully absorbed by the abnormality of his body, Ye Chen did not forget that right now, after adapting to his new body with suddenly enhanced abilities, he immediately transformed the energy in his body into non-aggressive energy and released it.

The vitality is replenished, and the rice stalks of the Bijaponica rice stand up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and become radiant after a small half-column of fragrance.

Seeing Bijaponica regain its vitality, Ye Chen left with a satisfied face.You thought he was going back to bed?It was a big mistake. He seemed to have endless energy at the moment. If Xiao Jinyan was by his side, he could find another way to vent his energy. Now, he can only go home and take the red-tasseled spear to go outside the manor to unload the excess energy.

After getting the weapon, Ye Chen raised his breath and left the manor in a few breaths.

In the silent night, in the vast sea of ​​sand, under the moonlight, a figure danced the red-tasseled gun vigorously, rolling up the yellow sand all over the sky. Later, the yellow sand slowly twisted into a strand, instead of being a piece of scattered sand, the shadow of the gun passed by Wherever there is, there must be a sand line attached.

Smelling the smell of full flesh and blood, the poison hidden under the sea of ​​sand appeared one after another. I thought it would be beneficial, but I was frightened away by bursts of fierce force as soon as it emerged. But for a moment, not only Ye Chen was there Under the feet, even within a radius of one hundred feet, there are almost no living beings.

Ye Chen saw everything in this scene, why do you think he activated his soul power, otherwise he would not be able to control his vitality to such an extent.Without the control of soul power, the vitality attack must be massive, especially when practicing spears in the desert, without getting himself covered in yellow sand, it is almost impossible with the means he knows now.

Before, Ye Chen was caught off guard and got dust all over his body. If it wasn't for the red-tasseled spear that enveloped his body airtightly, maybe he would still eat a mouthful of sand.

Soul power really has infinite uses. Not only do skills such as formation formation require a certain level of soul power to get involved, but also battles cannot do without it.With the help of soul power, in the future, regardless of where to point and hit, at least the hit rate will be greatly improved. If you practice to the extreme, it may really produce an effect similar to that of the lock in the game, and it will truly hit every shot.

This night, Ye Chen was really full of energy. He practiced several times in a row before he could dissipate some of his exuberant energy, so as to ensure that he would not keep his eyes open overnight.

The next day, with the light of dawn, Ye Chen woke up on time.

In modern society, most people are still asleep at this point. Many people have already woken up in the Dayue Dynasty, especially in the farmhouse. Ye Chen's farm is no exception. While the fire was cooking, Zhuang Ding went to the field with the farm tools on his shoulders.But that was in the past, and now most Zhuang Ding spends his energy on building walls.

There are only a hundred people in the manor. Even if there are some workshops and houses to spare, it is still not big. It is not too much trouble to build a wall around the manor. The city wall, at least for now, is not needed. First, surround the wall to ensure the most basic security of the manor, and the rest can be improved slowly in the future.

When Ye Chen arrived, there was only a section of the wall left, and Ye Wu was planning to go to the city to pull the wall bricks in the next two days. Ye Chen came at the right time, saving them a lot of effort.

Seeing that Zhuang Ding wasted most of his time on moving wall bricks, Ye Chen narrowed his eyes slightly.Seeing this scene, his first thought was to use the pulley mechanism.This skill existed in Da Yue Dynasty, but it was in the hands of a few craftsmen. None of the craftsmen under him knew it, but it was quickly rejected by him.

Ye Chen thought of the Qiankun Pearl, which became a world of its own, and wondered if external items could be brought inside.As soon as he thought of it, he immediately left the fence, returned to his residence, took something casually, and sent it to Qiankunzhu.

Looking at the empty palm, Ye Chen's eyes lit up, and at the same time he felt a little annoyed.It's been a while since he got the Qiankun Pearl, so why didn't he think of this? It seems that his way of thinking should be changed, and he can no longer use his previous thinking to think about problems. If this is the case, even if he holds a good card in his hand, he will Because he couldn't keep up with the situation, he played his cards poorly.

Knowing that the Qiankun Pearl can be used as a storage device, Ye Chen immediately put all the secret skills he got from the Chuangong Pagoda into it, including weapons and medicines.

After doing this, Ye Chen looked at the Qiankun Pearl in his hand and frowned.Although this treasure has recognized him as its master, it cannot be incorporated into the body without sacrifice, and it is easy to lose.It's okay to get it by ordinary people, but it's not easy to get it by monks.

They don't have as strong soul power as Ye Chen, and they won't be able to erase the soul power imprint he left on them for a while, but it may not be certain after a long time.After all, with the gradual recovery of the power system in this world, the cultivation of monks will inevitably increase with the passage of time. If they can't do it now, it doesn't mean they won't be able to do it in the future.

It's a pity that Ye Chen still doesn't know the method of refining, so he can only find a way to hide the Qiankun Pearl more tightly, so as not to lose it if he doesn't pay attention.

Ye Chen is leisurely and carefree in Beihuang, but the situation outside has changed.

Firstly, Zuixiaolou, which had a lot of publicity, suddenly fell silent, and the outflow of spirit wine was decreasing day by day, which made the drinkers dissatisfied, especially those merchants who would not hesitate to pay liquidated damages and give up cooperation with Xu Yanqing in order to obtain the right to purchase spirit wine, they all came to discuss To speak.

King Yu and the others had no way to deal with them. They didn't pay much attention to Ye Weiting's family, which only had a mere seventh-rank military officer to support it. If it wasn't for his family to have an alchemist, they would be even more rude.

Facing the crowd's unanimous attack, Ye Shuo had no good way to deal with it. He has been devastated in recent days, which is not bad, but what's worse is King Yu's side.

It is true that alchemists are very important, but they have to wait for them to grow up and become masters. Now that they are just getting started, their role will be much inferior.

Even so, alchemists are still scarce resources at present, with this as a buffer, King Yu will not do anything to Ye Weiting's family at this moment, but he will give preferential treatment, including blessing to Ye Weiting's family, but he will take back most of it, and the rest Apart from keeping Ye Weiting's family from being used to vent their anger, there is nothing else to consider, let alone develop and grow. With the current trouble, Ye Weiting's family can protect themselves, thank God.

However, this is already in the past tense. Now everyone's attention is attracted by Chuangong Pagoda. The reason is naturally the appearance of Zhenbao Pavilion, a Yuanyu exchange shop located in Zhenbei Fucheng.

Master Wednesday exchanged jade worth nearly [-] taels of silver for more than a dozen yuan jade, and used his connections to buy an admission ticket to Chuangong Pagoda at the best price.He was lucky, and got a fairly good cultivation technique, which happened to be something he could practice. Immediately, not only the Zhou family, but the whole city, even the entire Zhenbei Mansion and the surrounding areas were sensationalized.

Of course, this is only a relative term. With the little yuan jade left in Master Zhou's hand, it is impossible to buy a really high-value mental technique, but at least it is not a bad street stuff.

This is terrible, originally there were so many people cheering, but it was for the sake of the Qing'an Hou Mansion and the Zhenbei Army, but now it's like a hungry wolf meets a fat sheep, everyone's eyes are green, even if they don't have the money to buy it, they don't want to buy it. Looking forward to it, after Huayang County, Zhenbei Prefecture is ushering in the peak period of passenger flow.

In order to maintain law and order, the local garrison had to send officers and soldiers to patrol the whole city. There was no way, the manpower of the government office alone was not enough to deal with it.

Zhenbei Fucheng is not a small place like Huayang County. Not only are there many generals and family members of the Zhenbei Army living there, but it is also adjacent to the border. This kind of situation should not be neglected, lest one inadvertently mix in too many spies, and no one can bear the consequences.

In this way, without Ye Chen knowing anything, the Zhenbao Pavilion is making a lot of money day by day.It's just that this situation didn't last long. In the past few days, shopkeeper Xiao personally went to the door under the escort of a group of officers and soldiers disguised as guards. Needless to say, he followed a cart of jade. The purpose was obvious. The jade is almost sold out, and this time I came here to pick up the goods.

As soon as he entered the manor, Shopkeeper Xiao put on a bitter face: "Uncle Ye, this place is not easy for you to enter, and you almost broke someone into it."

"Is it serious? I happen to have a doctor here. If it's serious, let him take a look." The smile on Ye Chen's face faded a little.

"That's not necessary." Shopkeeper Xiao shook his head and refused.

Now there are frequent occurrences of visions everywhere, and wild beasts frequently descend from the mountains and out of the forest. How could they be unprepared for their long journeys?Not to mention that the escorts this time were worth several million taels of jade, and there were a lot of guards alone. They were not afraid of wild animals, but the sand snakes and snakes, which were hiding under the sand and suddenly burst into attack, made them hard to guard against.

This is also the first time they have entered the desert without experience. They did not expect that such a situation did not appear in the wilderness with lush vegetation. On the contrary, the desert with scarce resources gave them a blow.

In fact, this is easy to understand. In the plains, they take the official road. No matter how bad they are, they are also country roads. Snakes, mice, mice and ants have nowhere to hide. The desert is different. Ye Chen did not build roads. everywhere.

Seeing that shopkeeper Xiao can solve this matter by himself, Ye Chen naturally skipped this issue and returned to the topic: "Brother Wu, sit with shopkeeper Xiao for a while, and I'll go get Yuanyu."

Ye Wu nodded in response, and then exchanged greetings with shopkeeper Xiao.

After Ye Chen listened, Cousin Wu's conversational skills were a bit jerky, but the tension has almost disappeared, and it seems that it won't be long before he can truly be on his own.Sure enough, people still have to experience, and it is difficult to get out of the previous life circle without experience.

When Ye Chen arrived, all the jade stones had already been put into the warehouse. The boxes were placed flat on the ground, not stacked together. There must be special guards at the door.

Ye Chen did not wave back the guards, but closed the doors and windows tightly after entering the door, drew the curtains, and began to lift the lid of the box. The boxes of jade were quickly drained of energy by the Lucky Mall and turned into powder. At the same time, the extracted energy was turned into powder Deposit Yuan Yu into the Lucky Mall.

Ye Chen entered the storeroom with empty hands, and when he went out, he had a box in his hand. The guards who acted as door guards felt familiar, so they couldn't help but look a little longer, and found that it was the box they had just sent in to hold the jade. The corners of his mouth twitched.

"It's none of your business, go down and rest." Ye Chen held a large wooden box nearly half a person's height in one hand, waved at them, and strode away, leaving a group of guards looking at each other.

This person is really mysterious and powerful. They don't think that it is an empty box, and it must be filled with Yuanyu. None of them could do it. As expected, the one who could become the husband-in-law of General Xiao Xiao couldn't be an ordinary person.

The guards speculated that they were right. Ye Chen put the box down after entering the room, and the bottom of the box touched the ground, making a dull sound. It was obvious that there were heavy objects in the box, otherwise there would not be such a sound.

After taking his seat, Ye Chen said, "Shopkeeper Xiao, everything is here. I have already deducted what I paid in advance and the [-]% bonus. You can count it."

Shopkeeper Xiao was taken aback for a moment, and then said later, "Grandpa Ye, you mean that both parties will get two dividends first?"

"Well, wait until the inventory of Yuanyu in Zhenbao Pavilion increases, and then increase the monthly share rate."

"It's still my uncle who is thoughtful." Shopkeeper Xiao smiled, leaned over to open the lid of the box, and in an instant, the room was filled with light.

During this period of time, shopkeeper Xiao saw too many similar situations, even so, his eyes were dazzled, there were too many of them, to the point where he couldn't hold himself back.

Shopkeeper Xiao was like this, and Ye Wu, who was sitting beside him, was even more shocked.I don't feel much about putting two Yuanyu together. At most, I am attracted by their beautiful shapes. There are thousands of them piled up there, which is beyond the description of their brilliance.

After being mesmerized by the magnificent color and shape at first glance, the most obvious feeling for everyone present is to feel relaxed and happy, as if staying in it, and all troubles are far away from them.

In this cooperation, Ye Chen took the initiative, and it was all up to him to change more or less, even if he was ignorant, no one could comment, as much as he said was as much as he said.

Shopkeeper Xiao felt that there was no need to count. He had prepared early in the morning to take Yuanyu directly on the road. Now that Ye Chen himself had reported the number for him to count in person, he had no choice but to do so, but it was not what he expected. Payment of money and goods is a completely different matter, he is responsible for counting, and the receipts and withdrawals are not counted here at all, everything depends on Ye Chen's wishes.

To put it bluntly, the lifeblood of Zhenbao Pavilion is in Ye Chen's hands right now, and his relationship with Xiao Jinyan is the bond that maintains this shop. If the two part ways, there is no need for the business of exchanging jade for Yuanyu.

To be honest, shopkeeper Xiao, as an old shopkeeper who has managed the shop for many years, is not optimistic about this. Without him, Gein Qing'an Houfu is too passive in this cooperation, and doing business like this is too insecure.However, the situation is stronger than people, and you have to accept it if you don't accept it. You can't push such a lucrative business outside, I'm afraid it will be really ridiculous.

Unhappy is not happy, shopkeeper Xiao still knows how to measure, except that he was dissatisfied with this from the standpoint of the Qing'an Hou Mansion at the beginning, and then accepted this fact, he had no other thoughts, and only respected Ye Chen when facing Ye Chen.It doesn't matter if he doesn't admire him, can he be a simple person to take down the eldest son?Not to mention anything else, just exchanging Jade from the Treasure Pavilion for Yuanyu is enough to compare with most people.

Shopkeeper Xiao had two things in mind, counting while thinking, and it turned out that one digit was not bad, which coincided with the number reported by Ye Chen.Before letting it go, he might have to settle the accounts again, but this time there is no need, he directly closed the lid and tightened it, and then said solemnly: "Grandpa Ye, your side is not safe enough, the young master has sent some people Come here and ask if you need it, if you don't want to stay, leave with me tomorrow."

"Oh?" Ye Chen was slightly startled, and then the corners of his mouth almost turned up, "How much did you send?"

"Squad ten."

"This way..." Ye Chen lowered his brows and pondered, accepting it means having more eyes around him, and not accepting it is indeed a bit dangerous. Of course, this danger does not refer to birds and beasts, but from people.

Just like someone would go to find out the source of Lingjiu and Yuanyu, there are many people staring at it.

Nothing is unachievable.

Shopkeeper Xiao left Zhenbei Fucheng on the front foot, and everyone on the back foot may have received the news. In a few days, Ye Chen's farm in Beihuang must be exposed to everyone.

As for hiding the source of Yuanyu, it is impossible at all, there are traces to follow in everything, and Ye Chen is still unable to erase all traces.

In this way, instead of trying to cover it up, it's better to just do nothing, but he didn't expect this day to come so soon, and the guards of his family in Jinmin County, which was acted by Zhuang Ding, were not enough.

Thinking of this, a bright light flashed in Ye Chen's eyes, Xiao Jinyan would seize the opportunity, and would not send someone sooner or later, but at this time, he was sure he would accept it.Sure enough, from a wealthy family, as long as they have received normal education, no one is worrying.

"Take me over there to have a look." After thinking for a while, Ye Chen became concerned.

Shopkeeper Xiao immediately got up and went to the temporary station without further ado, pointing to more than a hundred fierce guards and said: "It's them, the eldest son said, if Uncle Ye is not satisfied, he can change people at any time."

Ye Chen didn't answer, his eyes swept across the entire squadron, and he knew at a glance that these were veterans who had actually been on the battlefield and seen blood.

Ye Chen's subordinates are not without force. After more than a year of training, Beihuang Zhuang Ding should not be bad at fighting. The only thing he lacks is actual combat, not with wild beasts, but with people.

The team sent by Xiao Jinyan just made up for this shortcoming, and the other party was really thoughtful.

After scanning around, Ye Chen soon discovered a problem.It stands to reason that a squadron must be led by a squadron leader, but this team has no members. There are only ten small captains, that is, Shichang, and the squadron leader, or Baihu, is vacant.

It is impossible for Xiao Jinyan to make such an obvious mistake, it was done on purpose.

After thinking about it for a while, Ye Chen understood that Xiao Jinyan was showing his favor to him, and took the initiative to hand over the control of this team to him. As for how much Ye Chen can trust, that is another matter, anyway, Xiao Jinyan is showing enough manner.

"Little General Xiao wants to give you to me, are you willing?" Standing in front of everyone, Ye Chen suddenly said.

Shopkeeper Xiao waited for a group of people: "..." How can you ask such a question, Ye Chen is too unreasonable to play the cards.

The veterans of the ten squads looked at each other, they would do whatever the higher-ups asked them to do, who would ask them if they were willing?For a moment I didn't know how to answer.

Ye Chen smiled, did not continue this topic, changed the subject, and said: "From now on, you will follow me."
