Chapter 19 Digging Deep, Accumulating Grain

After the "Thousand Bell Millet" has been harvested, it has to be threshed and dried.

If it is someone else, it will take time to "thresh the millet" and time to turn it in the sun.

For Xu Ke, none of this was a problem.

The "Repelling Object" turned into a talent spell was released, and with a roll of mana, the millet was directly pulled down from a pile of "Thousand Bell Millet" rice ears.

Soon, the floor outside the house was covered with a thick layer of "thousand bell millet" millet.

After the threshing was completed, Xu Ke cast the "drying technique" on the millet covered on the floor!
So... threshing and drying are all done.

Even the straw left after threshing, Xu Ke also put a "drying technique" and stored it as firewood.

It's just that there is so much millet in the house, but there is still a lack of a granary.

In the past, before Xu Ke "woke up", he planted the land for two years.However, after paying the rent of the harvested "Thousand Bell Millet", most of the rest were sold for spirit stones, and there was no consideration of storing a large amount of "Thousand Bell Millet" millet.

Now, if Xu Ke wants to use "thousand bell millet" to brew spirit wine, he must have a granary to store millet.

Build a granary?

It needs to quarry and log, and prepare materials.Moreover, I don't understand architecture, so I have to hire someone to do it, which is very troublesome.

Then dig a cellar!
With my current physical fitness and strength, digging a cellar is not difficult.

The only thing to consider is groundwater.There is a well in the backyard, which means that there is groundwater here. If it is dug into the water vein, hehe, then it is not a cellar, but a pool.

Of course, this is not difficult to solve!
As long as you have learned water spells, you will know how to perceive water vapor through your own spiritual power.

Xu Ke has learned the "Rainfall Technique", even if he didn't spend much time practicing it, he has already mastered it proficiently.

What's more, although Xu Ke's "Sweet Rain Technique" is a healing spell, it is also a water spell. After the "Sweet Rain Technique" was turned into a talent spell, it was already Xu Ke's natural instinct to perceive water vapor.

Now that the conditions are met, let's get started.

With a movement of mind, the true talisman of Ganlinju was triggered in the dantian, the spell was stored but not released, and a wave of spiritual power rippled out.

Letting go of this wave of spiritual power, focusing on the ground, Xu Ke began to carefully sense the nearby underground water veins.

There is a little too much water!
Uh... I'm talking about groundwater.

In Xu Ke's spiritual induction, an underground water vein passed through near the backyard, and the oozing groundwater diffused, and water vapor was everywhere.

Moisture can be sensed under the backyard and under the house, but not under the outside ground.

So... cellars can only be dug outside under the soil?

This is not a problem, just open the exit in the house and dig the cellar under the ground.

Thinking of this, Xu Ke turned back to the room and came to the bedroom.

Behind the wall of the bedroom near the floor, Xu Ke chose a location as the entrance to the cellar.

Picking up the long sword, Xu Ke used the "Sword of Zhengfa", a move of "drawing the ground as a prison", and slashed down on the ground heavily.

At the same time, the "True Talisman of Sharpness" was activated, and a burst of sharpness bloomed on the edge of the sword!

Holding the sword in both hands, the ground was drawn as a prison. The blade of the sword drew a five-foot-long and wide square sword mark on the ground, which penetrated one foot deep into the ground.

Immediately, within the square sword marks, sword energy erupted, whistling and criss-crossing, shuttling back and forth!
In an instant, the soil and rocks in the middle of the square sword marks were all cut into inch-sized pieces by the sword energy.

Putting the sword back into its sheath, Xu Ke swung a wave of mana to open the window leading to the backyard, and then... With a wave of his hand, the repelling technique was activated, and a pile of earth and rock fragments rolled up from the square sword mark and flew out of the window. Sprinkle in the backyard.

Because Xu Ke's cultivation base is still perfect at the third level of Qi training, the weight of objects that can be captured by the repelling technique is at most a thousand catties.

After several times in a row, the earth and rock fragments cut out by "painting the ground as a prison" just now were emptied.

After clearing away the broken earth and rocks, a hole that was one foot deep underground and five feet long and wide appeared in front of Xu Ke.

A little under his feet, the "lightness technique" added to his body, Xu Ke's figure floated down and landed at the bottom of the cave.

One foot deep, that is, a little over three meters, is not enough.

So Xu Ke once again "painted the ground as a prison" and dug down again.A depth of more than six meters is enough.

After removing the earth and rock fragments from the ground, Xu Ke fell to the bottom of the cave, aimed at the direction of the floor, raised his long sword again, and... continued to move the soil.

Just digging holes and moving soil at the same time, Xu Ke quickly dug a passage directly to the bottom of the floor.

The passage is two meters high and 1.5 meters wide. The bottom is square and the top is semicircular.

After digging the passage, Xu Ke began to dig the cellar.

It is absolutely impossible to dig a large area of ​​cavities under the ground, and it is easy to collapse.Therefore, Xu Ke can only dig a "room" at a certain distance to maintain sufficient support strength between underground cavities.

Once the plan is determined, continue digging!
Perhaps it was because his ancestors lived in caves in ancient times, which brought influence on the genetic level, that Xu Ke unexpectedly became addicted to digging.

Xu Ke didn't get out of the hole until he heard the "chirp" cry of the purple skylark looking for Xu Ke.

Then I found out... this digging took me all night.

Of course, the efficiency of this overnight is still good.Four "rooms" have been dug out under the floor, which add up to more than 100 square meters.

However, in order to prevent the excavated earth and rock from piling up like a mountain, Xu Ke did not empty the "room", and all piled up with earth and gravel.

Next, you only need to find a place to sprinkle soil and gravel, and then repair and strengthen the cellar. Not only can it be used as a granary, but it can also be used as a secret "cave" for practice.

So, how can you cultivate immortals without a cave?

To strengthen the "Dongfu", one needs to learn an earth spell.

Last time when I looked through the "Spell Catalog" in the "Baibaozhai" in the market town of Fangshi, I seemed to have seen an earth-type spell called "Concrete concrete into stone", which should be enough.

Xu Ke smiled, stretched out his hand to touch the feathers of the purple skylark, and walked out of the room.

Go out to the ground.

Seeing the "thousand bell millet" millet piled up in front of him, Xu Ke felt helpless again.

The last time I harvested silver-leaf jute, I was thieves.These grains are piled up at home. If I go out to buy spells, I'm afraid someone will steal my home.

Alas, the law and order environment is still not good!
Forget it, don't rush it for now, let's talk about it after the rent collector comes.

If the rent collectors didn’t come, and the millet piled on the ground suddenly disappeared, everyone would know there was something wrong, and maybe my “cave” would be exposed.

Gao Zhengzhi, Senior Brother Gao, when are you coming?I waited so hard for you.

Then... before Gao Zheng arrived, an autumn rain came.

That night, when Xu Ke was sitting cross-legged under the eaves, cultivating and guarding his house against thieves, he suddenly felt that the water vapor in the sky was constantly gathering.

Moisture gathers, is it going to rain?
This made Xu Ke's heart tighten, and he got up quickly, and quickly activated the "repelling object technique", and hurriedly moved the millet into the house, and piled it in the main room.

After finishing his work, Xu Ke was stunned to realize...

Fuck, I'm in a hurry!

When it rains, it rains!Even if the millet gets wet, wouldn't the problem be easily solved with a dry spell?

Forget it, the move is over, so we can't move out anymore, right?It is also good to keep the millet out of the rain.

For me, getting wet is just a matter of desiccation, but for those hard-working farming disciples who have not learned desiccation, it will be troublesome.

Out of goodwill, Xu Ke raised his hand and released a palm thunder, and the roar shook the whole field!
"Thunder! It's raining! The corn is harvested!"

Xu Ke roared loudly.

This reminder is enough!

"Crap! In the middle of the night, what kind of thunder is playing? My brain is sick!"

There was a burst of cursing in the distance.

Well, the reminder is invalid!
I am too lazy to care about you!
