"This time of clearing up wasteland is mainly to practice a magic skill.

Practicing magic is the purpose, and opening up wasteland is just a side trip."

Since he had already confessed this reason to Chairman Pan once, he didn't mind confessing it to Governor Li again.

"..."

Governor Li paused for a while and then said:

"That's not too late. Do you think this is good? I'll send you a few heads right now?

With the land reclamation efficiency of Shidi Mangniu, I can add another two to three thousand acres of new land to you without any problem."

Meng Zhou shook his head and refused:

"Forget it, the four thousand acres of spiritual land now are a bit too much for me. Just keep it at the current scale."

If he maximizes his land reclamation efficiency in the process of cultivating Land Waves, he can open up 10,000 acres of land, let alone 3,000 acres.

But in order to avoid others seeing his amazing progress in the spell of Earth Waves, he deliberately restrained himself a little.

When this spell reaches its perfect level, the number of spiritual fields opened up will be limited to 3,000 acres.

Governor Li was silent for a while and then said again:

"The daily management of your four thousand acres of spiritual farmland is a bit tense, right?

I will quietly operate it for you in private, put you in a queue, and try to coordinate a rainfall spaceship for you every three days."

Faced with Governor Li's high expectations, Meng Zhou was silent for a while and then said: "Fellow Taoist is interested, but I'd better give this opportunity to others."

Governor Li looked at Meng Zhou in astonishment.

He was so concerned about his own affairs, and Meng Zhou didn't want to hurt his feelings, so he explained it specifically.

"I'm lucky, I happen to have two spiritual beasts with the gift of rain.

With their presence, the irrigation needs of these 4,000 acres of spiritual fields can be met."

Governor Li was very surprised, but soon turned into frustration, and said with a wry smile: "So, I'm really useless."

His sudden resentment towards women left Meng Zhou speechless.

However, he also vaguely understood.

When he first came to Sanchuanyuan, he had more contact with Governor Li because he was not very familiar with the place.

Since then, he has basically entered a state of "self-sufficiency".

Other village landowners often deal with Sanchuan Hui, but he has no need to use Sanchuan Hui.

Governor Li has always been very attentive to his affairs, and it can be seen that he is interested in making friends with him.

It's a pity that I devote almost all my time and energy to practice, and don't have much free time to interact with other monks.

The line of meeting with Kan Yue was also the reason why he coveted Kan Yue himself in the early stages of cultivating both Dharma and body.

At the same time, a large number of monks from outside the realm can also expand his horizons, which keeps this line intact.

Apart from wasting time, more communication would not bring much practical significance to him.

This can be regarded as an alternative version of Luo Hua Zhiyi and Liu Shui ruthless.

…

President Pan did not stay too long, and left after the official planting of the three thousand acres of new spiritual land began.

Governor Li had done enough preparations in advance, and the Ling Zhifu who had been coordinated was very abundant in terms of both experience and quantity.

With the help of a group of Qi-training monks recruited by Yang Chong, the affairs were not only advanced in an orderly manner, but also very quickly.

By mid-afternoon, everything was done.

Ling Zhifu, Governor Li, Zhu Qian, Luo Dai and his son also left one after another.

Only Yang Chong was left to direct people to do some finishing work, and arrange for people to build several new guard booths, etc.

Meng Zhou didn't stay any longer and returned to the courtyard to continue practicing the hurricane technique.

Among the spiritual seeds in the three thousand acres of spiritual fields, Meng Zhou chose four types of spiritual plants. Their growth cycles are not as short as the Jade Heart Vermilion Fruit Vine.

The value was also good, but Meng Zhou didn't think too much about the harvest after they matured.

Because according to his current cultivation progress, there is a high probability that he will not be able to wait until they mature during the foundation building stage.

Although those spiritual seeds that went down into the soil were awakened to some vitality, they began to connect with the spiritual energy of the earth's veins, and began the process of awakening and growth.

But according to normal practice, it will take three to five months for them to fully wake up and take root.

Unless Meng Zhou uses the wind technique to speed it up.

However, Meng Zhou had no such idea and just let them grow on their own.

In daily maintenance, Meng Zhou will not spend much time and energy on it. As long as there are no major problems, he can just let it grow naturally.

At most, the special training of the two mysterious turtles should be suspended when irrigation is needed.

After spending most of the day properly disposing of the three thousand acres of newly added spiritual fields, Meng Zhou once again devoted himself to regular practice.

The hurricane technique that he had just started to practice became more and more proficient as he practiced it over and over again.

On May 20th, when Meng Zhou ended all his training and prepared for a new round of routine retreat, the Hurricane Technique had already completed the introduction, the accumulation of initial achievements, and advanced to the realm of small achievements.

"Hurricane spell minor success 700/1000"

At the same time, Retrospective Yuan Guang, who once again gained 2,400 experience points, completed the breakthrough from Dacheng to Master level.

"Looking Back to Master Yuan Guang 900/12000"

…

In late May, the master-level review of Yuan Guang's step-by-step growth and improvement.

Gained 3500 points of experience in the hurricane technique, completed the accumulation of the minor and dazzling stages, and advanced to the master level.

"Master of Hurricane 1200/4000".

May 30th.

While practicing the hurricane technique, Meng Zhou also picked and prepared a batch of spiritual tea.

Before retreating, he fed the thirty spiritual plants with a total of forty drops of spiritual dew that had been accumulated in the sealing jade bottle for two months and the original remainder.

This increases the growth acceleration of each spiritual plant by eight to nine months.

Coupled with their own growth and accumulation in these days, they have only recently been promoted to the first-order high-grade. Judging from the spiritual vitality accumulated within them, they have already reached the late stage of the first-order high-grade, and are accumulating little by little towards the final step.

…

Early morning on the third day of June.

Cultivation progress +35, foundation building six levels 694/1000;

Second level Spring Water Sutra +700, Grandmaster 23100/32000;

Soul Pool Refining Moon Heart +700, Grandmaster 12400/32000;

Black Turtle Body Refining Technique +700, Grandmaster 18430/24000.

During this round of practice, on the seventh day of June, Meng Zhou went out for half a day to attend a gathering at Kan Yue's place.

Meng Zhou's performance was as good as ever.

After returning with Qiao Xin and parting ways near Qiaojiazhuang, he also returned home irregularly.

It wasn't until he returned to the courtyard and the formation was closed that Meng Zhou's expression became slightly distracted.

During the party, Meng Zhou discovered a somewhat special phenomenon.

That is to say, Qiao Xin paid slightly more attention to one of the monks than the other monks, and showed more curiosity about him.

If you don't pay special attention and guess Qiao Xin's identity in advance, it will be difficult to detect the subtle differences.

Even the monk himself was completely ignorant of this.

The other monks were even more unaware.

If the monk was just an irrelevant person, Meng Zhou wouldn't be so sensitive.

Even though there are some very sensitive aspects of Qiao Xin's identity, in her daily life, she pays different attention to the monks she makes friends with. Some pay more attention and some pay less attention. This is normal.

Things are not worth making a fuss about.

However, there was something peculiar about that monk that even he himself did not know - that day, everyone divided up the spiritual plants in Lu Quan's courtyard, and among the many harvests of this monk, there was a clump of thin branches of spiritual bamboo.

And Meng Zhou was convinced that except for himself and Lu Quan, who had quietly left Sanchuan Plain, no third person knew the key role that Cong Lingzhu played in the night battle that took place at the end of last year.

Qiao Xin's performance made Meng Zhou realize that she already knew it.

She already knew the "specialness" of the thin bamboo clump, so what else did she know?

Also, how did she know this information?

The possibility of Lu Quan leaking the secret is very low, so low that it can be ignored.

If it were other times, Meng Zhou would still have doubts about this and would not be able to guess the truth.
