Others would definitely have to spend spirit stones to bribe him if they wanted him to handle these matters.
This was also one of the areas where he could make some profit as the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion manager.
But if it were his close friend, even if He Song hadn’t asked, he would have taken care of the matter as a matter of course.
Between people.
It’s different.
Ties of closeness and distance.
Interpersonal relationships.
Zhao Lin had always been good at this aspect.
Now, seeing He Song thanking him, he naturally didn’t think too much of this matter.
After confirming the location of his new spirit field, He Song stayed in the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion for a while longer.
It wasn’t until someone came to handle some matters that He Song took his leave.
As the manager of the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion, Zhao Lin had his duties today, and it wouldn’t be good to keep bothering him.
Leaving the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion.
He Song hesitated for a moment before quickly returning to his spirit field.
Earlier, He Song had only used the Spirit Rain Skill above his original five-acre spirit field and didn’t know that he had already gained two more acres of spirit field.
But now that he knew, He Song wouldn’t let those two acres go to waste.
Thankfully, the new spirit field was already planted with spirit rice, so He Song didn’t need to cultivate it again, just come over daily to use the Spirit Rain Skill.
Coming to the spirit field.
He Song quickly located the new two acres of spirit field based on his memory.
Immediately, he formed hand seals and used Spirit Rain Skill, and a rain cloud appeared quickly above the two-acre spirit field, covering the area.
Splash-
As the Spirit Rain Skill was unleashed, the fine rain fell from the sky, absorbing the surrounding spirit Qi while pouring it into the spirit field below. The spirit rice, now nourished by the spirit Qi, grew strong and lush, delighting the eyes.
However, just as He Song was using the Spirit Rain Skill to water the newly acquired two-acre spirit field.
A figure suddenly appeared in the distance and walked straight towards He Song’s side.
“Greetings, fellow daoist, my name is Chen Zhou. May I ask if you are the new owner of these two acres of spirit fields?” Chen Zhou looked frail and weak in his green robe, seemingly vulnerable to even a slight breeze.
He Song had noticed Chen Zhou, who was walking directly towards him, from a distance.
Though he appeared weak, it was evident that Chen Zhou had approached with a purpose.
He Song now had a feeling when he heard his words, and a thought flashed through his mind.
A glint appeared in his eyes, and he felt reassured.
The man was at the fourth-tier of Qi Refining, the same level as He Song.
At the same level, He Song might lack defensive means, but with the Thick Earth Amulets from Zhao Lin, he didn’t need to worry about Chen Zhou acting rashly.
Feeling secure, He Song relaxed a bit.
But despite his relaxed state, his alertness didn’t diminish in the slightest.
On the contrary, he had already pinched a Thick Earth Amulet in his sleeve with his fingers.
If anything went wrong, He Song could instantly activate the Thick Earth Amulet to protect himself.
“Yes, I am He Song, just recently entered the Qi-refining mid stage and obtained these two acres of spirit field. Do you have any issues?” He Song openly admitted in response to Chen Zhou’s question.
However, as he spoke, He Song couldn’t shake the feeling that Chen Zhou’s name sounded familiar.
As if he had seen him somewhere before.
After some thought, a look of surprise appeared in He Song’s eyes as he looked at Chen Zhou.
He remembered.
Earlier.
When he was at the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion, he and Zhao Lin had been looking at the map together, and he had seen a name called Chen Zhou on the map.
At that time, He Song had been lamenting how people had to travel to two different locations and perform Spirit Rain Skill twice a day after breaking through to Qi-refining mid stage, which was quite troublesome.
And now, the person he had inadvertently seen had appeared right in front of him so quickly.
If he recalled correctly.
His initial attention to Chen Zhou was because the man’s spirit field was adjacent to his own.
In other words… those two newly acquired acres were probably forcefully taken from Chen Zhou by Zhao Lin and given to He Song.
Meanwhile, Chen Zhou’s new two acres of spirit field were arranged elsewhere.
One could say that Chen Zhou was the only victim in this entire situation.
This…
Thinking of this, He Song felt speechless and didn’t know what to say. He just stood in place, quietly casting the Spirit Rain Skill, waiting for Chen Zhou’s next words.
No wonder Chen Zhou came straight towards him upon seeing him.
No wonder Chen Zhou seemed to have been squatting here the whole time.
No wonder Chen Zhou asked if he was the new owner of these two acres of spirit field right away.
They had seized this man’s spirit field, and now the man had come to find him.
He Song felt a mix of emotions for a moment.
He didn’t expect.
To become a villain in someone else’s eyes.
“Fellow Daoist He, these two acres of spirit field used to belong to me. I dare to ask if I could exchange them with you. I have two acres at another location.” Chen Zhou bowed his hands to He Song, took out ten spirit stones from his pocket, and said.
The ten bright spirit stones were particularly dazzling under the sunlight.
He Song caught sight of them and almost had his gaze drawn away by the spirit stones.bender
However, just as Chen Zhou handed the ten spirit stones to He Song and finished speaking, He Song’s expression turned solemn.
While continuing with the hand seals, He Song shifted his body to the side.
Ten spirit stones weren’t a small amount.
It could rent a room in the Immortal Pavilion for a month.
But for a Qi-refining mid stage cultivator like He Song, ten spirit stones were pitifully few.
He just needed a year to get ninety spirit stones from the spirit fields he managed.
Furthermore, once he agreed to the exchange, he would have to run to two different locations every day to cast the Spirit Rain Skill twice.
This would significantly increase the time he spent managing the spirit fields.
Consequently, the time He Song could devote to cultivation would inevitably shorten.
To spend so much time for ten spirit stones, He Song thought it wasn’t worthwhile.
Apart from that, the spirit field division was given to him as a favor from Zhao
T .in
Was Zhao Lin’s effort only worth ten spirit stones?
If he knew He Song exchanged it for ten spirit stones, what would Zhao Lin think?
Now.
Chen Zhou wanted to exchange these two acres of spirit field with only ten spirit stones in front of him.
He Song couldn’t help but think that Chen Zhou was underestimating both him, a cultivator at the Qi-refining mid stage, and the price of Zhao Lin’s friendship.
“There’s no need for the spirit stones. If you want to exchange, just go find the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion manager. If he says it’s alright, I’ll do it.” In an instant, He Song’s expression turned cold, and he flatly refused.
After that, He Song didn’t forget to give a warning.
“I forgot to tell you, the manager of the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion is a close friend of mine. When you go, don’t forget to weigh your options..”
