Family Cultivation: I have a skill panel

Chapter 91 The Snake Catcher

At the foot of Heijian Mountain, there are tens of acres of yellow and orange spiritual fields, and what is planted in the fields is not ordinary things, but a kind of spiritual grain called Huangya rice.

There are more than a dozen tenants living around Lingtian.

Most of these tenants have one or two qi-training monks in their families, who rent out some low-quality spiritual fields at the foot of the Black Stream Sect, plant some spiritual grains, or elixir medicines, and hand them over to the Black Stream Sect to obtain some meager resources for supply. Practice by yourself.

Bao Laosan was such a tenant. He was the only monk in his family who practiced Qi training at the sixth level, had a virtuous wife, and three children.

On weekdays, he dewormed the spiritual field in the field, and watered it with spells such as clouds and rain. In autumn, when the spiritual grains were ripe, he harvested the spiritual grains.

Throughout the year, he still has a relatively free time, when there is nothing to take care of in the field, he goes to the outskirts of Qingze to catch snakes.

He catches snakes to eat, not only for himself, but also for sale to some restaurants in the market. The meat of spirit snakes is tender and delicious, and many monks still like it.

Like him, the tenants on this field were all part-time snake catchers, and he, Bao Lao San, was the best of them all.

Today, he didn't go out to catch snakes. Instead, he carried a huge sack in the harvested field and fertilized it with spiritual manure.

These spiritual fertilizers are mixed with some special medicines. After harvesting a spiritual grain for a year, if the spiritual fertilizer is not used to speed up the recovery of spiritual energy, the harvest of yellow bud rice will decrease in the second year. This is some basic spirituality. For Zhifu's knowledge, Bao Laosan is not a serious Lingzhifu. For example, he does not know the spiritual methods of Lingzhifu, but he also has some practical experience of his own, which comes from several of his experiences. Ten years of planting.

An unremarkable man found him and asked

"But Fellow Daoist Bao"

Bao Laosan stood in the spiritual field and looked at the man on the ridge vigilantly. It was Zhao Xiuxuan.
asked rhetorically

"What's wrong with me, friend Daoist?"

At this time, Zhao Xiuxuan used the green snake pupil to suppress his cultivation to the eighth level of Qi training. The reason why he came here was because after asking Wu Zhong, he learned that there are snake catchers who can buy green pupils here. spirit snake

The Qingmang Snake Eye spell is the most special of all his skills. Unlike other spells, the proficiency can be improved through continuous practice, and it is not like cultivation. There is a fixed proficiency every day, and it cannot exceed the daily limit of the dantian aura .

As long as there is a steady stream of spirit snakes, the Green Glow Snake Eyes can improve continuously. If a suitable source of snakes is found, the particularity of this spell will allow it to be cultivated faster than other skills.

That's why Zhao Xiuxuan came here

Obviously, the person in front of him is the snake catcher Wu Zhong mentioned, Zhao Xiuxuan continued

"Fellow Daoist Bao, I heard that you are good at catching snakes. I want to ask you for some green-eyed spirit snakes. I don't know if you have any."

"Green-eyed spirit snake? There are a few, fellow daoists follow me."

Seeing that he was buying snakes, Bao Laosan became much less defensive and had a smile on his face. He has been catching snakes for many years, and some monks who like to eat snakes will come to him to buy snakes. It should have been introduced by someone else
Putting down the manure, he led Zhao Xiuxuan to the house and sat down. A pretty farm girl poured tea for Zhao Xiuxuan. Bao Lao San urged her to enter the house, and then dragged out a sack from the back room
A big snake shaped like a python was pinched out from it, and this snake was actually a green-eyed spirit snake.

"I have a big one and two small ones. Fellow Daoist came at the right time. I was going to sell this snake to Xianlaiju in Luoshanfang. If you buy it, you will get all ten spirit stones."

Zhao Xiuxuan thought for a while. The three snakes that the Tuo tribe had finally bought in Luoshanfang cost five spirit stones. There are also three snakes. Although one has more spiritual energy, it is not worth ten spirit stones. Fangshi is a middleman, so the price must be higher.

Although Zhao Xiuxuan disdained the ten spirit stones, he was not taken advantage of. In the end, he spent the same five spirit stones to buy three snakes.

Although Bao Laosan was dejected and praised Zhao Xiuxuan for his ability to bargain, Zhao Xiuxuan knew that there was definitely room for decline in these five spirit stones, but he didn't want to dawdle too much, and he also had other thoughts.

After checking the other two green-eyed spirit snakes and storing them in the storage bag, Zhao Xiuxuan asked casually
"Fellow Daoist Bao, I don't know how many green-eyed spirit snakes you can catch in a year. To be honest, I am here to buy snakes for the owner of the restaurant above me. I am a small buyer of the restaurant." , if possible, I would like to have a long-term business with fellow daoists."

"Oh, it turned out to be a fellow Taoist who bought it."

Bao Laosan's expression was startled, his face became more flattering, and he quickly called out his wife

"Xiuju, take out my treasured spiritual wine, I'll drink a few bottles with fellow Daoist Zhang"

Henry Zhang, pseudonym of Zhao Xiuxuan.

There was a crisp reply from inside the house, and then a pretty peasant woman poured wine for the two of them with a bottle of spiritual wine and two sharp-pointed wine bottles.

Zhao Xiuxuan didn't drink, but gestured to Bao Laosan to answer his question
Bao Laosan drank a bottle on his own, and then said
"Fellow daoist, this blue-eyed spirit snake is very good at hiding. It's really hard to find inexperienced people. It depends on luck. I can catch twenty or thirty snakes throughout the year. However, If fellow daoists want more, then I can guarantee to supply more than a hundred pieces to expensive restaurants every year, and the price is easy to negotiate."

Saying that, Bao Laosan took out a spirit stone from the spirit stones he had just collected, and handed it back to Zhao Xiuxuan.

"For each snake, just collect one spirit stone from a fellow daoist. If it's a big snake, how about three spirit stones?"

Zhao Xiuxuan took it calmly, and didn't ask him why he could only catch [-] or [-] pieces throughout the year, but he could guarantee a supply of [-] pieces every year. He took out [-] spirit stones, put them on the table, and said with a smile.

"In this case, here is a deposit of thirty spirit stones. Every three months, I will send someone to collect snakes from you."

Bao Laosan was full of joy that could not be concealed, and pretended to say:
"Fellow Daoist, if you only come to collect it every three months, logically speaking, I have to count the cost of raising snakes. However, Fellow Daoist requires a large amount, so I won't charge you this fee."

Zhao Xiuxuan nodded, then took his leave and left. Before leaving, Bao Laosan gave him a bottle of spirit wine, and Zhao Xiuxuan took it specially to make him feel at ease.

After Zhao Xiuxuan left, Bao Laosan smiled, grabbed the spiritual wine that Zhao Xiuxuan hadn't drunk on the table, and drank it all in one gulp.

Afterwards, she was about to go out happily, and the wife asked while holding the child in the house.
"Where is my husband going?"

Bao Laosan touched the child and said,
"Just now that Fellow Daoist Zhang wants to collect spirit snakes, I promise that he can collect more than a hundred of them every year. I have to find Mazizhang and some of them. Then I will collect their green-eyed spirit snakes."

"So that's the case. I said what my husband said just now that you can catch a hundred things."

His wife looked at him with admiration, which greatly benefited Bao Laosan.
