Chapter 92 White Goose
Li Chuan found Gong Er Pang San at the entrance of the lecture hall.
The two little demons stood face to face, as if they had encountered some problem, both looking sad. After seeing Li Chuan, Gong Er jumped over and said, "Brother, my third brother and I want to go to Xieyang County to plant spiritual rice for a year."
Xieyang County? Lingmi?
Li Chuan thought of the sermon he listened to in the afternoon. It was said that the place with a very suitable climate and soil was in Xieyang County. So he quickly asked: "Are you short of spiritual rice?"
Spiritual rice is not a rare thing in Xuanmen. It is a kind of spiritual plant, and the harvested fruits are similar to rice. Cooked directly and eaten as rice, it can replenish qi and prolong life; it can also be used to refine elixirs and medicinal wines. It is more popular among low-level monks who still need food.
If you buy it with secular money, it costs three taels of silver per pound, which is really expensive. But if you barter or buy it with spiritual stones, it will be quite a lot of money.
Pang San was the first to speak this time and answered Li Chuan's question. He said: "We are not short of spiritual rice. Today we went to listen to a sermon from a goose demon. It took him five hundred years to learn how to transform into a demon. After successfully transforming into human form, he studied for a hundred years why it was so difficult for birds and demon cultivators to transform into human form, and finally summed up a method that only required one hundred spirit stones, and he taught it one-on-one. He said that if he still can't transform into a human form after a hundred years, he can ask him to refund the money. "
It turns out that the thing missing is the spiritual stone.
“So you want to farm to earn spiritual stones?” Li Chuan asked.
Gong Er nodded, "Yes, yes, it is cost-effective to earn a hundred spirit stones in one year."
Pan San added: "We have studied many methods, and everything else has risks. , Farming is the safest.”
It has to be earned.
Li Chuan is not very optimistic about this matter. He has never planted land himself, but he cut pigweed when he was a child. It was too bitter; so after traveling here, he never thought about farming himself.
When it comes to farming, even if everything is perfect, if a heavy rain comes, everything may be gone. The same goes for monks farming. A monk who can manage hundreds of acres of land doesn't need to go to the Buling Formation in Xieyang County to grow spiritual rice.
He also understood Gong Er's mood very well.
Pang San can transform into a human being, and he also wants to become a human being.
Li Chuan said: "When your senior brother comes out of confinement, I will go to him directly to ask for it; or you can wait for a few days, and I will write a letter to the Qintian Prison to ask if I can send you some spiritual stones. As a welfare."
Gonger refused righteously and said: "Brother, you have helped us get started. From now on, we have to go on our own path of cultivation and cannot rely on you for everything."< br>
Sowing spiritual rice for a year without harvesting it can be regarded as spiritual practice... Li Chuan thought for a while and said: "It takes three quarters from sowing to harvesting spiritual rice, and it has to be converted into money... Are you sure? Is that goose demon still here a year later?”
Gong Er had obviously done his homework. He said, "Yes, he has lived in Tianju Mountain for more than 20 years and has a good reputation."
"Will he talk again tomorrow?" Li Chuan ask.
"I'm going to talk for three days in a row. Brother, are you going to listen?" Gong Er asked.
Li Chuan nodded, "I listened to one today. It was very interesting. I will listen to it with you tomorrow."
......
The next day, Li Chuan followed Gong Er and Pang San to listen to Goose Demon's sermon. After the goose demon transformed into a human form, he turned out to be a middle-aged man with a naive appearance, calling himself Lord Goose. When he spoke, he spoke in such detail that even Li Chuan understood it.
There are many books on transformation in the Sishen Palace Library. Before Li Chuan came, he flipped through a few pages. The explanations were quite mysterious, requiring understanding and emphasizing the spiritual movement.
What Goose said is more maneuverable.
First of all, draw a line for your cultivation. If you cross the line, you can transform. If you can't, you can't. Then talk about which parts of the wings will become arms, which parts will become fingers, and what to do with the extra feathers.
Gong Er and San were fascinated by what he heard; Li Chuan also added a lot of useless knowledge.
The charge of one hundred spirit stones is still reasonable.
When he was about to finish speaking, Mr. Goose once again promoted his one-to-one transformation service, such as tailor-made for different birds. After the end, he saw many demon cultivators looking for him. .
Li Chuan also went to find him. Seeing Li Chuan, Mr. Ge showed great enthusiasm.
Li Chuan showed the skylark knot when he came in to listen to the lecture. He was a distinguished guest of the Four Gods Palace.
Mr. Goose looked Li Chuan up and down, "Do you have any questions about the transformation? I think you have transformed very well, but your temperament is still a bit unhuman..."
Li Chuan said with a wooden face. : "I am just a human being."
"Oh..." Mr. Goose apologized quickly, "I'm sorry, I made a mistake. Then, why did you come to me?"
Li Chuan said: "I have a friend who also turned into a demon from a bird."
"Has he transformed?" asked the goose demon.
"Not yet," Li Chuan then said the reason for his visit, "He hasn't accumulated enough spiritual stones yet. I want to ask Lord Go, how long will you stay here?"
"My home is here. "If you save enough spirit stones, you can come at any time." Mr. Go confessed to Li Chuan: "I don't have a good understanding. I have stepped on almost all the pitfalls in my cultivation, so I have accumulated a lot of experience. I originally just wanted to help." Everyone, please avoid pitfalls and avoid detours. It’s just that there have been some difficulties recently and we need spiritual stones.”
Li Chuan said, “Can you tell me what the difficulties are?”
Master Ge looked a little confused. Shyly, he said: "My Taoist companion, we have known each other for many years, and she finally has an egg."
"Congratulations." Li Chuan congratulated subconsciously.
"But after hatching for several years, there is still no movement at all. We asked a medical practitioner to check and they said that it requires constant input of spiritual power to hatch. So these years, my wife has been hatching eggs at home."
Spiritual power? Li Chuan was thoughtful.
Master Goose added: "The further you go, the more spiritual power you need, and gradually my wife's spiritual power is not enough, so I try to find ways to earn some spiritual stones, buy some elixirs, and go back to give him a supplement. ”
“If the spiritual stone is not enough, there are pills to replenish qi, which are also acceptable.”
Li Chuan understood and said, “I want to be with you. Tell me, my friend.”
When Li Chuan walked out of the lecture hall, he found that Gong Er and Pang San were still on the steps, one pecking at the grass and the other looking at the sky.
"Second brother and third brother." He shouted.
They all turned around: "Brother!"
Li Chuan walked up to them and said, "I talked to Mr. Goose. He is a reliable monk."
Gong Er also agreed and said: "Other demon cultivators, many of whom are higher than him, can't explain it as clearly as he does. They all like to hide things."
Then Li Chuan told Mr. Goose why he wanted the spirit stone, and said, "I thought, if I lend him our pot for a while, he might be able to hatch the egg."
Gong Er and San also breathed a sigh of relief.
Gong Er said: "I see, if he had said it earlier, we wouldn't have to worry so much."
Pan San: "We don't have to farm, that's great!"
It turns out they don’t want to farm either.
Li Chuan laughed: "Okay, I'll go in and talk to him."
