After Lin Jie calmed down, he quickly reviewed the plan for the past five years, which was to improve his own strength as much as possible. The journey to the devil's cave would definitely be full of dangers. Of course, before that, he had to create the conditions to kill Zhao Wentai first.
There will be a snake disaster at Qingniu Mountain three months later.
He also had to detect the snake caves and kill the silver-spotted venomous snakes before the rainstorm came.
Count it down.
He felt that there was simply not enough time.
He resisted the urge to take the Soul-Nourishing Pill immediately. After a few days, when the day of harvesting red marrow rice came, he came out to work with everyone. When he saw Liu Runzhi coming out of retreat, he called her over and said directly,
"Miss Runzhi, I heard from my fourth sister that you are a first-class lower-grade weapon refiner?"
Liu Runzhi nodded slightly.
Lin Jie was delighted. Except for him, no one in the Lin family had a magic weapon. But once the conscription order was issued, they had to go to the demon cave. Without one or two magic weapons to defend themselves, they would surely die.
"Miss Runzhi, after you recover from your injuries, please help everyone in the clan to make a first-level magic weapon that can attack and defend. Don't worry about the materials. I will find a way to help you get them. Just make a list."
"Yes, Patriarch, Runzhi will definitely fulfill the mission!"
Liu Runzhi was delighted.
When she was at the Liu family, although she also wanted to refine more equipment to improve her skills, the Liu family was a group of independent cultivators who had no food to eat and were very short of resources for cultivation. How could they have any extra spirit stones to invest in her?
She also once went out to help people refine weapons.
But others did not trust her as she had just been promoted to a first-class lower-grade weapon refiner, fearing that the materials would be wasted.
Fifty acres of red marrow rice.
It took the Lin family five days to complete the harvest.
After weighing.
It actually weighs more than 58,000 kilograms.
Everyone was delighted.
This is more than 10,000 kilograms more than in previous years.
The 30% tribute they paid was calculated based on the yield of 1,000 catties per mu, which means that in addition to the 30% given to the Xuan family, they still had 43,000 catties left, leaving 33,000 catties for daily needs.
The eldest brother Lin Changren said cheerfully,
"Master, should we save the extra grain or sell it in the market? But now is the harvest season for red marrow rice, and the price in the market will be greatly discounted. If we are not in a hurry to use the spirit stones, we can save them until next summer and sell them, and we can make a little more money."
"We don't sell this red marrow rice."
Lin Jie smiled.
He decided to keep all the 15,000 kilograms of red marrow rice as tribute and give the rest to his third brother Lin Changli to brew spirit wine. Ten years was neither a long nor a short time, so he had to make the best use of the resources at hand to earn more spirit stones.
In addition to purchasing the materials needed for Miss Runzhi to refine the equipment.
Also, purchase a batch of mana recovery and healing pills before the demon cave breaks out.
The funding for all this comes from the production of spiritual wine by the third brother Lin Changli and the mining of the Yangang Stone mine on Leimeng Mountain.
Lin Jie immediately asked his fourth sister Lin Changli to replace his third brother Lin Changli and come down from the mine. After Lin Changli learned that he was entrusted with an important task, he was so excited that his tongue curled. After a while, he said with a slightly fat belly,
"Master, don't worry, I promise to successfully brew the spirit wine."
Several months in the mines.
Because he was not burdened with chores, he once again improved the wine-making recipe he had been researching for four years. He was confident that he would be able to brew it successfully.
Lin Jie was thinking of giving a few instructions.
The familiar mechanical sound came again in the sea of consciousness:
"Ding"
"You know how to use your talents wisely and have successfully helped Lin Changli become a spirit wine master, earning him 20 family contribution points."
That is to say.
The family contribution value was almost exhausted.
It became 22 points again, which could be exchanged for 11 pieces of information.
Lin Jie suddenly felt confident.
Red marrow rice after harvesting.
The eldest brother Lin Changren was busy turning over the land and replanting seven-star grass.
Seeing that everyone in the family was busy except herself, Fu Molan deliberately looked for Lin Jie. Lin Jie handed her the book on the complete explanation of the way of talismans that he had sorted out:
"Molan, in addition to your daily practice, you should use your free time to make talismans. The more talismans you make, the better."
No matter if it's a devil's cave.
The next step is to clean up the snake cave in Qingniu Mountain.
Everyone needs talismans for self-defense.
After assigning the clan affairs.
Lin Jie directly announced that he would go into seclusion and began to take first-grade intermediate-quality soul-enhancing pills.
There is no time in cultivation.
In the blink of an eye.
Two months passed in a flash.
In the secret room.
However, wisps of red spiritual energy lingered around Lin Jie. With his breathing, all the spiritual energy was absorbed into his body after a complete circulation.
Lin Jie opened his eyes happily:
"It is worthy of being a first-class mid-grade elixir!"
The three soul-enriching pills helped him take a big step forward in the fourth level of Qi training, which was quite unexpected. This was also the first time he took soul pills to practice.
There is a magic pill to help.
The speed of cultivation has increased several times.
"No wonder every family is willing to spend a lot of resources to train an alchemist."
It's time to leave the country.
In less than a month, heavy rains will come and a snake plague will break out.
He had to go to Qingniu Mountain.
Push the door open and walk out.
When he came out of the secret room, he saw that the seven-star grass in the fifty acres of spiritual fields had grown lush and green, and he could harvest it and make talisman paper if he was quick.
When the eldest brother Lin Changren saw Lin Jie coming out of seclusion, he hurried to greet him.
After the retreat.
The eldest brother Lin Changren helped to take care of the clan affairs. He said with a happy face:
"Master, let me show you something."
Speaking of.
Lin Changren took out a fiery red egg from his sleeve and handed it to Lin Jie. The red egg was about the same size as a goose egg, but it contained a faint spiritual energy:
"Master, where do you think this egg came from?"
Lin Jie was stunned for a moment, then immediately remembered the information shown by the intelligence two months ago, and said with a smile:
"It was produced by the Fire Cloud Chicken."
The eldest brother Lin Changren was stunned for a moment, then gave Lin Jie a thumbs up:
"As expected of the head of the family, you guessed it right. This Fire Cloud Chicken is also very rare. Even a rooster can lay eggs. But unfortunately, the thirty Fire Cloud eggs laid were not breeding eggs and could not be hatched."
If not.
Their Lin family can create an industrial chain:
"However, the spiritual energy contained in the Fire Cloud Egg is not small. Although it is not a first-level spiritual object, taking one is equivalent to practicing in the Spiritual Spring Well for ten days."
"Master, how do you think we should distribute these Fire Cloud Eggs?"
As family resources increase.
If the distribution is uneven, cracks will appear sooner or later over time.
Lin Jie said immediately:
"We should still use the contribution points from our Lin family."
"Yes, Patriarch."
The eldest brother Lin Changren was an honest man. He felt that there were only a few cultivators in the clan and there was no need to divide them so clearly. However, he still carried out Lin Jie's instructions seriously.
Lin Jie explained the merit exchange system to his elder brother in detail. Finally, he told him that he was going down the mountain. When he put on the invisibility cloak, he heard a familiar mechanical sound in his mind:
"Ding"
"You get what you work for. The more you work, the more you get. You have established a merit exchange system for the family and have been awarded 30 family contribution points."
