NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 204 Befriending the Yan Family
He had long wanted to try this method.
It's just that my previous cultivation was shallow and I couldn't mobilize the power in my body to release it.
Now that he has the innate realm, he barely has this ability.
He had already tried it when he was helping Jin Chan heal his injuries, and it worked quite well.
Reach out and hold the rhizome of the foxtail grass.
Then he mobilized a weak Changchun Gong skill and released it, controlling them to submerge into the dog's tail grass.
After it is absorbed, the stems and leaves slowly become plump and quickly regain their vitality.
This method really works.
Qin Niu followed the same method and applied it to other herbs one by one.
In about half an hour, they all came back to life.
Now that I have the Xiantian realm, I should be able to explore deeper into the mountains. I can dig some more herbs and plant them.
Having tasted the sweetness brought by the Breaking Realm Pill, he has been impressed by its supreme charm.
The best main ingredient for refining high-grade elixirs is not animal elixirs, but elixirs.
This has been the case since time immemorial.
The essence of plants and trees is the best material for alchemy.
The beast elixir, on the other hand, is a heretic. Because taking the beast elixir not only requires killing, but also monsters and humans are two different creatures. The training methods are also different.
Using animal pills to make medicine is not only against the laws of nature, but also involves many risks.
This is why major families only regard cultivated medicinal herbs as their core resources, but I have never heard of any family raising a monster as their core resource.
At most, one would raise a monster to guard the home and guard the family's forbidden areas.
After Qin Niu restored the vitality of these herbs, he rushed to the Yan family's crop fields.
Arriving at the first line of defense, locusts were taking advantage of the darkness to move forward one after another. Ordinary locusts will not be attacked when passing through this line of defense.
Only when special locusts pass by will they be intercepted by Qinniu's termites and then killed mercilessly.
He counted the results of the termites' battles.
Thirteen special locusts were hunted.
Compared with the peak period, when hundreds of animals could be hunted in a day, this was a huge decrease.
Qin Niu specially brought a group of third-level termites here this time, wanting to test their combat effectiveness.
As a result, it is difficult to see even special locusts, let alone giant locusts.
This made him a little depressed.
He was thinking about discussing with the Yan family tomorrow morning, asking the Yan family to find other insect masters to garrison this line of defense.
After helping the Yan family guard the house for so many days, he could be considered the most benevolent and repaying the favor.
He specially brought a book to read today.
The basic knowledge of cultivation is long overdue.
He entered the thatched house, lit the oil lamp, and read all night long.
The night was uneventful.
The next morning, Yan Qi came over.
Master Qin, was everything peaceful last night?
It's nothing. Look at this situation, it seems that the locust plague is about to stop. Please tell Master Yan for me. Starting today, I will officially withdraw from this line of defense.
Qin Niu and the Yan family had only a cooperative relationship.
He can do whatever he wants.
I didn’t want to do it, so I just said hello and left.
Is this... is there something wrong with our Yan family's hospitality?
Yan Qi's face changed slightly and he asked carefully.
I guarded the whole night yesterday, and there were only two special locusts. I guess even if two more came during the day, they wouldn't be able to cause a big wave. Master Mo Sang can definitely deal with it. I have a lot of things at home, and I really don't have time to spend here. Of course, if there are changes in the locusts and the Yan family encounters difficulties, you can still invite me at any time.
After Qin Niu finished speaking, he took the termites he had collected and left.
Master Qin, your breakfast banquet has been prepared! If you don't want to eat, I will take you back!
No, just go and inform Master Yan and Masters Mo and Shi.
Qin Niu raised his hand and walked away.
Not long after he arrived home, Master Yan came over in person in a carriage.
Master Qin, thanks to you helping our Yan family defend the line these days, we have saved our Yan family's property. With your sudden departure, is it because the number of special locusts has decreased, which has greatly reduced your income? This is indeed true. I was negligent, so I asked my father for advice. Our Yan family is willing to pay a guaranteed price of one tael of silver per day for our Yan family to be pest-proof.
If the number of special locusts killed on that day is more than 100, the cost will be calculated as previously agreed.
If there are less than a hundred, my Yan family will provide you with one tael of silver a day.
The eldest young master of the Yan family offered a price that would make countless insect masters jealous.
One tael of silver a day's wages, this is definitely a top salary.
It's really not about money. Master Yan, don't think too much about it. I'm not doing insect control for the Yan family just to make money. The Yan family has taken great care of me. After the completion of my new house, they gave me generous gifts to celebrate. It's a very deep feeling. I can't bear to sit back and watch when I see the Yan family suffer. Now that the insect plague has subsided, I have delayed a lot of things in order to hold on to that line of defense these days.
That's why I quit.
Qin Niu explained patiently.
It turns out that this is the case, and it's because of the bad intentions of our Yan family. This is your reward for pest control of our Yan family recently, a total of 92 taels and 5 coins. Can you see if there is any discrepancy?
Just do the math, I can trust you.
Qin Niu worked for so many days and earned more than ninety taels of silver, which was pretty good.
They also conducted military training, which gave the termites a good workout.
Their group cooperation capabilities and combat experience against enemies have been greatly increased.
Teamwork is the greatest advantage of termites.
This requires more practice, there is no other shortcut.
According to my father's wishes, I will collect one hundred taels of silver for you. Thank you for your help to my Yan family. My father also said that if Master Qin is free, you are welcome to visit the Yan family at any time. If you encounter any difficulties, you can also You can come to our Yan family at any time. As long as it is within the scope of our capabilities, our Yan family will not sit idly by.
Yan Ruhai handles things much better than Yan Dashao.
In terms of dealing with people, people are very comfortable.
Please thank your father for me. When I have some free time, I will definitely visit his old man.
Qin Niu has also admired this local overlord for a long time.
Yan Ruhai has a lot to learn from.
After this insect disaster, he wanted to take advantage of the situation and become a powerful local family like the Yan family. There were still many things he needed to learn from the other party.
From Yan Ruhai's meaning, we can see his willingness to treat Qin Niu as a friend.
That's good.
A gang of three men, everyone needs friends.
After sending Master Yan away, Qin Niu took Xiaoqing to the mountains to practice.
This is also the first time that Xiaoqing is brought into the maze of ancient banyan trees.
Xiaoqing, remember this place.
He took her directly to the ancient banyan tree.
What a big ancient tree! Why do I feel that the front is empty... No, such a big ancient tree should have a lot of energy reserves.
Xiaoqing also practiced the Medicine King Sutra and was able to feel the energy in plants.
She was surprised to find that she couldn't sense anything, and the ancient banyan tree in front of her was empty. (End of chapter)
