I am doing meritorious deeds in Liaozhai

"Teaching people how to fish is worse than teaching them how to fish." Song Yushan said, "Let's go to the village to see it tomorrow and then talk about it!"

In this village's situation, temporary help can only make them feel better temporarily. To completely solve their food and clothing problem, they can only find ways to fundamentally solve the problem.

Let’s first look at what the villagers do for a living.

After dawn, Song Yushan and the other three entered the village with their invisibility charms attached.

The village is located in a small valley.

The houses were built at the foot of the mountain, and the flat areas in the middle were all cultivated into fields.

The output of these fields is the main source of food for the villagers.

Compared with the population of the village, these fields are too small.

Deep in the mountains, surrounded by high mountains and ridges, there are very few places for farming.

The lack of arable land is an important reason for food shortage.

If there is not enough land, no matter how carefully you cultivate it, you will not be able to harvest anything.

Qin Yuan twisted the crops in the field: "Why do these seedlings look so thin?"

Ning Danxia looked at the soil in the ground and said, "There is nothing wrong with the soil. It should be because of the rice seeds."

"I have a way to do this." Song Yushan formed a seal with his hands and used the breeding technique on the seedlings in the field.

After the breeding technique is upgraded, not only can the control be more precise, but the power of nourishment and growth will be stronger. Starting from the Dacheng level, all the power of breeding can be used for improvement, improving the quality of mortal plants to a certain extent.

This quality is heritable.

If they can be cultivated with the perfection-level breeding technique from generation to generation, after many generations, even ordinary plants can be cultivated into spiritual plants.

At present, the grain seeds in the hands of most farmers are more or less high-quality grain seeds cultivated by monks using breeding techniques, and the grain yield is very good.

After all, monks also have to fill their stomachs, but no monk will become a farmer.

High-quality grain seeds are the basis for many monks to leave their jobs and concentrate on their practice.

Perhaps because this village is too remote and has too few connections with the outside world, the grain seeds have never been cultivated through breeding techniques, and the quality is so low.

Just to improve the quality of the seedlings so that they can leave seeds with higher yields, the Dacheng-level breeding technique may require many years of cultivation, while the Perfect-level breeding technique only requires one cast.

After nourishing all the fields in the village with breeding techniques, Song Yushan said: "In the future, the food output in the fields should be doubled. But this is still not enough, there is still too little land."

"The surrounding mountains and forests are rich in products. When the season is right, we can hunt and gather to fill our stomachs. Although mortals are less powerful, they can still be used as supplements, right? Why do I see that there are only hunters in the village, but no one goes up the mountain to pick up wild goods? ? It just rained the day before yesterday, so it's a good time to pick up fungi!" Mo Yuming couldn't understand it.

"It's possible that they don't know what they can eat and what they can't eat," Qin Yuan said.

At night, Song Yushan and the others went to Qilao Cave again, and carefully questioned the ghost of the old man in the cave, which confirmed their suspicion.

The people in the village were very hungry and had eaten plants on the mountain, but they all died.

From then on, no one in the village ate the plants on the mountain.

The four of them took it together and decided to help the old man and the ghosts entrust their children and grandchildren with dreams, and use their dreams to tell the villagers about the common edible plants in the mountains.

By the way, it can also satisfy the wish of the old woman in green and clarify herself.

The old man in the cave was in disbelief when he learned of their intentions.After taking them to see the plants in person and making dinner with them, they believed it was true and they all knelt down to thank: "Master Immortal, you are so kind!"

In the end, not only the ghosts of the old people in the abandoned cave participated, but also the ghosts of the old people hanged in the dry wells and mountains, and even the existing ghosts in the entire village joined in.

Among the ghosts who have been laid to rest, some have the ghost power to dream alone, but most ghosts, especially the ghosts of abandoned old people, have very weak ghost power and have no ability to dream at all.

However, Song Yushan has a dream talisman. In such a large dream, an intermediate dream talisman can solve all problems.

That night, all the adults in the village had the same dream.

The relatives who had passed away came back and told them that a passing fairy took pity on the people in the village who were struggling to survive, abandoned the old and raised the young, taught everyone the art of gathering and hunting, and also cast fairy magic on the fields.

In the dream, everyone studied with the immortal who could not see his face for a year, and watched the fields harvest twice as much food as before. This year, new babies were born in the village, but no old man was abandoned.

Amidst the laughter, I woke up from my dream.

"It turned out to be just a dream!" Many villagers couldn't help but express such regret in the early morning of this day.

When they talked about this dream with the people around them, they suddenly realized that they all had the same dream.

This was very unusual, and they suddenly remembered that they remembered the things in this dream very clearly.

Someone looked at the seedlings in the field and exclaimed: "This seedling is as strong as the one in the dream!"

"The dream...can't be true!"

Someone hurriedly picked a few pine mushrooms under the pine tree, cooked them using the method in the dream, and fed them to the dog at home. Nothing happened to the dog.

"The dream... seems to be real!"

While the people in the village were pleasantly surprised, they kept trying what they learned in the dream.

Guan Ming remembered what his mother said in his dream, and stumbled towards the abandoned lao cave. As expected, he saw a monkey-faced monster wearing human skin and clothes of his mother, just like in his dream.

This directly confirms the reality of the dream!
Although you wake up from the dream, there is still a chance that reality will be as beautiful as the dream.

Recalling what the immortal master said in the dream that people must be laid to rest in the grave after death so that their souls can have shelter in the underworld, people in the village went up the mountain one after another to collect and bury the bones of their loved ones.

Perhaps because of guilt, perhaps because of fear, apart from the old people who were sent here, not many people have actually visited these three places, Abandoned Lao Cave, Dry Well, and Hanging Death Valley.

This time, they saw the despair here with their own eyes. Thinking of the appearance of their loved ones in their dreams, they couldn't help but get wet in their eyes.

"I hope they can, like in the dream, abolish the custom of abandoning the elderly, so that the elderly can be supported and the young can be supported!" Ning Danxia said, looking at the small village from a distance.

"We have done what we can, and the rest is up to them." Song Yushan said.

"Let me tell you something."

Under the guidance of others, Qin Yuan made a divination. After reading the divination, she smiled and said to her friends: "The divination shows that everything is going well in this village!"

"It's time to go." Mo Yuming said.

The four of them smiled at each other and embarked on the journey with peace of mind.

Many years later, in the mountains to the west of Lushan County, a village called Sixian Village was included on the map.

The people in the village are good at hunting and gathering, and there is also a story about the four immortals teaching the villagers in their dreams.
