Farming in the Immortal Mansion

Chapter 22: Taking Care of the Herb Garden



After returning to Yaogu Sect, everyone was still in fear. Ye Ling warned: "Don't mention what happened today to anyone! Otherwise, once the Southern Saint Sect hears the news, they will send people to find us. We will inevitably be implicated and our lives will be in danger."

Meng Chang nodded repeatedly and said: "Brother Ye is right! Hehe, if anyone asks, we will say that we have never been to Changxi, let alone know what the Monster Crocodile Cave is! Even if a knife is on my neck, I won't tell you!"

He Jingsheng is timid and cowardly by nature , after hearing the news that the young master of the Southern Saint Sect had fallen in the Demon Crocodile Cave, he was already pale with fear, and responded repeatedly: "Yes, yes! These days, everyone has stayed indoors and avoided the limelight."

Suqin and Zishan also knew the relationship. The strength of the Southern Saint Sect was tyrannical, surpassing other sects around Fengqiao Town. The death of the young master would definitely set off a storm. The two women also made up their minds that they must not be affected by it, and everything must be kept secret.

The five people bowed and said goodbye. Ye Ling went to the main hall of Yaogu Sect and handed over the master's order. He simply told his master, Master Zhao, about the experience and gains of the training outside, and concealed all the key points. Especially the death of the young master of the Southern Saint Sect, Ye Ling completely concealed it and would never mention a word to his master.

Yaogu Sect Master Zhao Yuanzhen still had a cold attitude towards Ye Ling. Seeing the fierce aura around him, it was obvious that he had killed a lot of monsters. It could be seen that he had worked hard in the past few days.

Sect Master Zhao nodded with satisfaction, and did not ask any more questions. He was too lazy to look at the harvest of his hunting monsters. He just urged: "After you go out to collect herbs and experience, you must continue to study higher-level herb illustrations and learn to identify and plant spiritual herbs. Let's do this. I will assign you a new task to take care of the master's medicine garden for a month."

Ye Ling's mind moved. Taking care of the medicine garden is a relatively leisurely sect task, and Ye Ling can completely take advantage of the situation while taking care of the sect master's medicine garden and cut some rare spiritual herbs and plant them in the fairy mansion spiritual field! Grow into the best, plant unlimited!

So Ye Ling agreed very readily, but there was no joy on his face. His expression was as usual, and he still looked indifferent. He took the sect master's token and retreated respectfully.

After leaving the main hall of Yaogu Sect, Ye Ling hurriedly went back to his cave to pack up his daily necessities, and then visited his senior brother Zhuang Liangshou to explain the new task assigned by his master. Then he moved into the sect master's medicine garden located in the Nangu of Yaogu Sect.

On weekdays, the sect master's Nangu medicine garden is taken care of by the outer disciples in shifts. Now that Ye Ling has arrived, holding the sect master's token, he has entered the Nangu medicine garden and has become the immediate superior of these outer disciples.

These outer disciples have seen Senior Brother Ye's great power in the competition and defeated the sons of the immortal cultivation families. They all admire him sincerely!

Now they heard that Senior Brother Ye was in charge of the Nangu medicine garden and had to inspect it first. One by one, they followed Ye Ling, fanning him and moving chairs. Wherever Ye Ling went, the outer disciples who moved chairs moved there!

Ye Ling couldn't help but sigh secretly: The world of cultivating immortals is indeed based on the strong, and identity and status change greatly with the rise of strength. He used to be unknown in the outer sect and no one cared about him, but now he is a role model for thousands of outer sect disciples of Yaogu Sect and enjoys preferential treatment.

But Ye Ling was tired of their support and flattery from the bottom of his heart, and only cared about the various spiritual herbs growing in the Nangu herb garden. Ye Ling compared the herb illustrations and identified them one by one. Occasionally, if he couldn't remember them, he would ask the followers beside him.

After a round, Ye Ling suppressed his ecstasy in his heart. The number of spiritual herbs in the Nangu herb garden was far beyond his imagination!

There is no doubt that the herb garden of the sect master is the best in the entire Yaogu. The spiritual herbs planted are not only of various types, but also of good years. The only thing that made Ye Ling dissatisfied was that most of the spiritual herbs planted were from level 4 to 6, and there were very few from level 1 to 3. For example, the very common honeysuckle was not planted in the master's medicine garden.

Ye Ling glanced at the dozen or so outer disciples standing beside him, frowned slightly, and said to himself: "They are really too much of a nuisance. I have to send them back before I can do anything!"

So Ye Ling lazily half-lying on the rattan chair, asked: "What is the division of labor among you, who is responsible for watching the garden, who is responsible for watering and weeding?"

Everyone hurriedly gathered around, a guy in the second level of Qi training was very attentive, with a birthmark the size of a copper coin on his right cheek, which was particularly conspicuous. He said respectfully in front of Ye Ling: "Reporting to Senior Brother Ye! Before Senior Brother came, everything in the Nangu Medicine Garden was It is the subordinates who are responsible for the assignment. Hehe, now Senior Brother Ye is in charge of the Nangu Garden, and I am willing to be your deputy and guarantee that this place will be well managed, so that Senior Brother Ye can rest assured! "

Ye Ling was not moved at all, and said lightly: "What is your name?"

"Sun Erhu! Hehe, Elder Sun is my distant cousin. "

Ye Ling nodded. He had been in Qingzhu Courtyard of the outer gate of Medicine Valley for a long time, and he knew some of the worldly affairs of the outer gate. He cursed in his heart that only someone like Sun Erhu who was related to the foundation-building elders in the sect could get such a leisurely and beautiful job.

However, seeing that he stood with his hands down and looked respectful, Ye Ling did not argue with him, and still asked indifferently: "Oh? So, you are also from the Sun family of immortal cultivation?"

Sun Erhu kept smiling and said bitterly: "Where, where, my family is just a distant branch of the Sun family, not the descendants of the cultivating immortal family. Hey! The real direct descendants of the Sun family, who are popular and drink spicy food, are not like My subordinates are so poor. This is because of Elder Sun’s credit, which allowed them to gain a foothold in the Medicine Valley. Otherwise, they would have been assigned to dig spiritual minerals at the mining sites outside the valley.”

Ye Ling's face softened slightly. Seeing that he was eloquent and able to take advantage of both sides, he was also groveling. What he said was also very miserable: as if he was afraid that something would happen to the emperor and his courtiers, that Ye Ling would no longer use him and throw away such a good person. Like an errand.

Ye Ling pondered for a moment and thought to himself, regardless of this person's character, I can use this mouth that answers questions and answers, and his clever demeanor to get things done. It's just right for me to run errands and inquire about news.

The remaining guys must be watering and weeding every day, and they must be very familiar with every plant and tree in the Nangu Medicine Garden. If Ye Ling prunes branches and leaves quietly, it will inevitably leave traces and be surprised by these guys. But it's different when it comes to newbies. They can't notice the difference in the spiritual grass after cutting the branches and leaves, so these people must change!

Thinking of this, Ye Ling nodded and said: "Sun Erhu, you stay. Tomorrow you go to the outer deacon hall to find Li Bao and bring in seven or eight new people. The rest of the people should be sent away. You can all go!"

Everyone was stunned, and immediately looked disappointed and left in despair.

Only Sun Erhu smiled happily and said with a smile: "Yes! I will obey Senior Brother Ye's order! It's late today, and early tomorrow morning, I will go to the outer deacon hall. I must replace it with some hard-working junior brothers! Hehe , I wonder if Senior Brother Ye wants an external female disciple to serve him?"

Ye Ling pondered for a moment, realizing that most girls are too careful, which is not conducive to his plan of cutting branches and leaves, so he waved his hand and said: "Don't bother! Female cultivators don't want it."

Sun Erhu hit a soft nail. In order to please Ye Ling, he said sarcastically: "Senior Brother Ye dismissed them. There will be no one on duty tonight. The subordinates will stay to guard the medicine garden."

Ye Ling cursed in his heart: This blind guy! But his face didn't show it, he just said coldly: "Do you think that my senior brother is dead? The sect master ordered me to take charge of the Nangu Medicine Garden. Of course I will live here for a month. With me here at night, who dares to mess up? Break in!"

"Yes, yes! My subordinates deserve to die. Senior Brother Ye fulfills his duties to the tasks assigned by the sect master, which makes his subordinates admire him very much!"

Sun Erhu was frightened and flattered, which made him really depressed.

Ye Ling glanced at him, softened his tone, and sighed in a pretentious manner: "Well, there is nothing we can do about it. I have to be busy in the Nangu Medicine Garden recently. According to what the sect master said, I was asked to identify the spiritual herbs, I must be familiar with the growth conditions and environment of Lingcao. I have to complete this task as soon as possible, so you can go to Fengqiao Town to find out some interesting information in your spare time and tell me when you come back."

Sun Erhu slapped his thigh and jumped with joy. I dare say that this is what Senior Brother Ye likes!

When Sun Erhu thought of having the opportunity to go to Maple Bridge Town, he felt as if he was sure of his leave. Not to mention how beautiful it was, he nodded and said, "No problem! I like to inquire about gossips, so I won't let you know." Senior Brother Ye is disappointed! Haha, Senior Brother Ye is still wise and kind to his subordinates, and his subordinates respect him infinitely! If the elders and elite disciples of the entire Medicine Valley are as enlightened as Senior Brother Ye, why worry about our Medicine Valley not being prosperous!"

Ye Ling was impatient to listen to his flattery and said calmly: "You should also go back. At six o'clock tomorrow morning, bring someone to my place to have some mao."

Sun Erhu cupped his fists and saluted, and left happily.

After he left, Ye Ling looked around without anyone, picked up a medicine hoe, and wandered around the Nangu medicine garden, pretending to be weeding, quietly cutting the branches and leaves of the spiritual grass, and quietly moved it into the Xianfu jade pendant!

In this way, even if a foundation-building elder from the sect passes by with his sword light, Ye Ling can easily answer the question correctly, saying that he is cutting dead branches and weeding the spiritual field of the medicine garden, and no one will be suspicious.

What's more, Ye Ling only cuts one plant of each type of spiritual grass in the garden. All he needs is a small leaf or a small section of rhizome. With the powerful spiritual power of the Immortal Mansion Spiritual Field, it is not difficult to grow the best of this type of spiritual grass. ! And can be planted indefinitely.

Ye Ling cut branches and leaves like this, while dividing his mind, soaking in the jade pendant of Xianfu, planting these branches and leaves in the spiritual field of Zhaixing Cliff in Xianfu, and harvesting them after they grow to the best quality at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In this way, in one night, Ye Ling planted a total of seventy or eighty kinds of first- to sixth-grade spiritual herbs, all of which were stored in the small wooden house on Zhaixing Cliff for future emergencies.
