Chapter 464: Who needs to farm when everyone is cultivating immortals?
Sun Xiuer was indeed very anxious. Her parents had urged her several times to take back the Nie family’s property, but Nie Nanxi never went out. What could she do?
Seeing Nan Xi coming to harvest the spiritual rice, Sun Xiuer hurried forward.
"Nanxi, you finally went out. You haven't been out for the past few days. I thought something happened to you."
Nan Xi asked back: "What could possibly happen to me? If you care about me, just return the spirit stones you borrowed from me before."
Sun Xiuer had "borrowed" a few spirit stones from the original owner and had never returned them. Of course, the original owner didn't want them either.
Sun Xiuer's face turned red immediately. Everyone around her was looking at her, which made her feel a little embarrassed, especially when they were talking about it.
"Oh, why is Sun Xiu'er still asking Nie Nanxi to borrow spirit stones? Her parents are gone now, and her life will be difficult in the future."
"That's right, you think Nie Nanxi is weak and can be bullied, so you don't plan to pay her back, right?"
"I was wondering why Sun Xiu'er was so kind and kept coming to Nie Nanxi. It seems like she was trying to cheat the spirit stones."
Sun Xiu'er hesitated, saying that she had already used the previous spirit stones and it was impossible for her to return them.
Aunt Xie couldn't stand it anymore and urged directly.
"Sun Xiu'er, did you really borrow the spirit stone? Return it to Nie Nanxi as soon as possible. She is already pitiful enough without her parents. Don't bully her."
Mr. and Mrs. Nie are good people and have good relationships with everyone. They have lived together for more than ten years, and the neighbors still take good care of the original owner.
Sun Xiuer pushed the crowd away in a panic, left a word and ran away.
"Nanxi, I...I'm going home to harvest the spiritual rice first. I'll come and play with you when I'm free."
Everyone around shook their heads. It was obvious that Sun Xiuer was feeling guilty. Nie Nanxi's spirit stones would not be returned.
"Nan Xi, don't be stupid. Lend out the spiritual stones at home and keep them for yourself to buy spells. Got it?"
Aunt Xie took Nan Xi's hand and gave her instructions.
This Aunt Xie used to have a very good relationship with Mother Nie. The original owner didn't like her very much because she had a very loud voice and talking to her sounded like an argument.
Every time the little girl spoke to her, a group of people would come to watch, making her blush.
Nan Xi felt that Aunt Xie was genuinely thinking about her.
"Got it, thanks, Auntie."
When Aunt Xie saw Nan Xi agreed obediently, her eyes turned red.
"Good boy, if you have any trouble in the future, come and find me."
Having said that, she took the children to her own spiritual field.
Nan Xi watched Aunt Xie leave.
There was a reason why the original owner did not ask Aunt Xie for help later.
Aunt Xie also had a hard life. Her husband had been cultivating spiritual fields for ten years, but felt there was no hope for promotion, so he abandoned her and went down the mountain to the secular world, leaving her and her two sons to struggle here.
Aunt Xie, however, is a person with high aspirations. She would rather suffer a little now and wants her son to stay in Jiuhua Sect. Maybe he can become a cultivator in the future?
Fortunately, Aunt Xie’s son has grown up and is now able to help.
Nan Xi came to her own spiritual field and saw endless golden rice fields sparkling in the sunlight. The rice ears were heavy and exuded a faint spiritual energy.
The deacons have arrived. They are wearing the sect's uniforms and standing solemnly by the field, supervising the disciples' harvesting work.
Nan Xi picked up the sickle and started harvesting.
Jinyang rice is a special kind of magical rice. Its harvesting time is very critical. It must be harvested within three days after maturity to ensure the quality and yield of the rice.
This kind of rice is not only an important source of food for the outer disciples of Jiuhua Sect, but can also be used to refine fasting pills, so its harvesting is particularly important.
The cultivation levels of the menial disciples are all within the third level of Qi Refining, and their spiritual power is not enough for them to use spells to harvest all the time.
Therefore, even if they are cultivators, they must use traditional tools to harvest like ordinary people.
Nan Xi picked up the sickle, bent down, and started harvesting.
She was not unfamiliar with this job. She remembered that she had traveled back to the era of educated youth and had harvested rice with her own hands at that time.
That experience taught her to cherish every grain of food, and also made her realize the hard work and joy of harvest.
Now, although the environment is different, her mentality remains the same.
Nan Xi's movements were skillful and powerful, and she quickly got into the state.
While harvesting, she adjusted her breathing and tried her best to maintain physical and mental balance.
As time went by, Nan Xi felt a tingling sensation in the acupuncture points in her body, and her spiritual energy flowed more smoothly.
Nan Xi was stunned. Harvesting spiritual rice could actually strengthen one's physical fitness.
"This is a good thing."
Speaking of which, most of the menial disciples have four or five spiritual roots, and the speed at which they absorb spiritual power is too slow.
Now it seems that this is also a kind of exercise.
Such labor is not only a test of their physical strength, but also a test of their character.
Next, Nan Xi sped up. She didn’t need to train her body step by step. The spiritual fruits in the space were enough for her to strengthen her muscles and cleanse her marrow.
Therefore, Nan Xi did not consider the storage of spiritual energy when using magic. When the spiritual energy was gone, she would eat some spiritual fruits and drink some spiritual spring water.
While improving her cultivation, she also got all the work done.
By the time she had harvested the five acres of spiritual rice, her cultivation had reached the fifth level of Qi Refining.
"Wow... Nanxi, have you finished harvesting your spiritual rice?"
Sun Xiu'er was a little surprised. She thought Nie Nanxi would sit on the edge of the field and cry.
Thinking of Aunt Xie and her son in the morning, Sun Xiuer gritted her teeth secretly, thinking that it must be Aunt Xie who came to help with the harvest.
This Aunt Xie is so nosy and annoying. No wonder her man doesn't want her anymore, it's because she's so annoying.
After secretly complaining for a while, Sun Xiuer came over and said something flattering.
"Nan Xi, I'll ask my parents to help you later. You don't have a storage bag, so it's difficult to transport."
"Who said I don't have a storage bag? I do!"
Nan Xi took out a storage bag and put all the spiritual rice into it.
Sun Xiuer opened her mouth wide. It turned out that Mr. and Mrs. Nie doted on their daughter so much that they actually left a storage bag for her.
She felt extremely upset. If she had known earlier, she would have paid more attention to Nie Nanxi. Maybe this storage bag would be hers now.
After Nan Xi harvested the spiritual rice, she headed for the square, where everyone was threshing the rice and paying rent.
Sun Xiuer followed behind Nan Xi, feeling very unwilling.
They are all girls, so why is Nie Nanxi so happy? Is Sun Xiuer the poor little girl whose parents don't like her?
Sun Xiuer's face turned ferocious. She had to find a way to snatch the storage bag. This storage bag must be hers.
She became anxious when she thought about the fact that she had not completed the task assigned by her parents.
The Nie family's spiritual fields have been harvested, and not a single grain of spiritual rice is left. If she goes back tonight, she will definitely be beaten again.
"Nanxi, wait for me."
Sun Xiuer ran over quickly and reached out to hold Nan Xi's hand.
