Stupid Tiger

"Go out and buy a hen, and a few chicks to raise."

"Also, buy a rice container and some rice and such."

Fang Zelin was extremely happy to see the extra spirit rice in front of him, but he also had to consider that he would need to eat later.

He planned to go to Anzi County to buy a few chickens to raise, along with some firewood, rice, oil, and salt.

Aside from cultivating immortality, he still needs to eat.

With this in mind, Fang Zelin immediately set off for Anzi County.

After crossing the Yongding River, Fang Zelin spent some time arriving at Anzi County.

Everything around seemed the same as before, but it was a bit more lively now.

There were many people coming and going.

Most of them were dressed in flying fish robes, and they all looked like martial arts figures.

The flying fish robe makes it easier to use a knife and is also convenient for riding a horse.

In this Seeking the Dao World, people mostly travel on horseback.

The recent increase in the number of martial arts practitioners has led to a significant rise in horse prices.

A fine chestnut horse, which originally cost 12 taels of silver, has now risen to 15 taels of silver.

Even so, horses are still hard to find.

This allowed private horse farms to make a fortune.

Those martial arts practitioners who didn't have horses but wanted to travel had no choice but to start riding in carriages. It was a bit bumpy, but it was also a bit faster.

As for practicing light-body skills to travel quickly, some people have tried it before.

Unfortunately, his Qi Force was completely exhausted in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. If he had encountered some outlaws, he would have been beheaded.

Therefore, no one bothered to learn the method of traveling by light-footed skills.

However, while many things have increased in price, some things have decreased in price.

For example, salt.

Given the sheer number of players entering the game, it's still possible to purify coarse salt into fine salt.

In addition, production was increased.

It's said that in many prefectural cities, the governor has a group of players under his command.

The significant increase in fine salt production did indeed lower its price.

In addition, the price of paper has also decreased.

In general, the prices of some things have increased, while the prices of others have decreased.

On both sides were martial arts practitioners leading horses, walking along the street, creating a strong martial arts atmosphere.

Fang Zelin was preoccupied with buying old hens and chicks, and quickly found a place.

An old hen costs four cents a pound, which is an acceptable price, plus a bunch of chicks.

Then they bought a bushel of rice, along with some other oil, salt, and other items.

After making the purchase, Fang Zelin easily left Anzi County with both hands.

After Fang Zelin strolled across the Yongding River, he casually put down the things he was carrying.

The hen was finally put down, and it immediately started clucking incessantly, but it didn't dare to run around.

Fang Zelin sprinkled some rice on the old hen so it could have a meal, then turned and went inside to busy himself.

A moment later, place the oil, salt, and other ingredients in the pan.

After doing all that, Fang Zelin turned around and went outside the wooden house, where he continued to cultivate a small vegetable garden.

This is for growing some bok choy.

By the time Fang Zelin finished his work, the sun was already gradually setting in the distance.

I ate some dry food earlier, and now I'm hungry again.

As soon as Fang Zelin lit a fire at the stove, wisps of smoke rose up, and the riverbank was instantly filled with the scent of human life.

If you were to look closely from a distance now, it would seem as Yingping Peak had been integrated into a traditional Chinese ink painting.

A few moments later, dinner was ready.

It wasn't anything fancy, just some simple food.

The taste wasn't particularly good, but Fang Zelin ate it with great relish.

While eating, I couldn't help but glance at the spirit rice beside me.

"The only drawback is that there's too little spirit rice. If we were eating spirit rice, even simple meals every day would be fine."

Fang Zelin felt a slight pang of emotion.

However, he wasn't too greedy. He would wait for the spirit rice to grow a little longer, and eventually, when there was more spirit rice, the amount of spirit rice produced would be enough for him to eat.

Wangqing Mountain.

A crescent moon slowly rose, its bright light spilling across the mountains and forests, adding a touch of tranquility to the landscape.

In the mountains and forests, a white deer was half-nestled on a large rock, its whole body bathed in a layer of white light, which made the white deer appear more peaceful.

With each breath, a significant amount of lunar energy was absorbed into the body.

A moment later, Bai Lu suddenly opened her eyes and looked up at the moon in the night sky.

Suddenly, I felt a little annoyed.

"Following your previous guidance, my cultivation has indeed progressed rapidly during this period, and my cultivation level has increased considerably."

"However, lately, I feel that my cultivation has slowed down considerably, as if some kind of barrier is hindering my progress."

"What you said about the Dao Emulates Own Inherent Spontaneity following nature is still somewhat unclear to me; I haven't fully grasped it. If I had fully grasped it, things wouldn't be like this."

Looking at the crescent moon in the night sky, Bai Lu felt that her cultivation was not as smooth as before, and she was naturally finding it difficult to continue.

It had a vague feeling that if it could fully comprehend the phrase "the Dao Emulates Own Inherent Spontaneity," it would probably be able to take human form.

However, even though the gentleman had explained it so clearly before, it still feels somewhat obscure and difficult to fully comprehend now.

There seems to be a barrier right in front of me; I can feel it, but I can't touch it or break through it.

Thinking about this, it inexplicably began to feel a little irritable.

With a thud, the hoof stomped on the rock in front of it, and with a loud bang, the boulder in front of it instantly shattered.

"White Deer, why aren't you cultivating? What are you doing?"

In the distance, in the shadows of the woods, something seemed to be moving. When it slowly came into the moonlight, it immediately revealed its colorful body.

A huge, striped tiger suddenly appeared in front of us.

The giant tiger had a black "king" character tattooed on its forehead, and its round eyes shone with a fierce light even in the pitch-black night.

In the past, the white deer would have definitely given way to the giant tiger in front of it.

But now, looking at the giant tiger in front of it, although it was not as big as the giant tiger in front of it, its aura directly overwhelmed the giant tiger in front of it.

"My cultivation isn't going well, can't I just vent my anger?"

"What, you stupid tiger, wanna exchange a few blows?"

As the white deer spoke, it flicked its antlers in front of it.

Hearing this provocation, the giant tiger roared fiercely, causing the surrounding creatures to instantly hide and tremble in fear, revealing a ferocious aura of a tiger roaring deep in the forest.

However, the white deer remained calm and stood still, completely unfazed by the roar.

Upon seeing this, the giant tiger immediately lowered its large head.

This guy, I heard, received guidance from a master, and his cultivation is progressing by leaps and bounds.

He couldn't beat this guy last time they fought, and he's probably even less of a match for him now.
