I became an old man in my leisure time

Ordinary bamboo houses reduce consumption by 50%, and can be reduced by another 10% through workshop manufacturing. Gu Ke defines this bamboo house with a 60% reduction in consumption as a standard bamboo house.

Perhaps if a master architect is replaced, the standard bamboo house can save more than 60% of consumption.

But there is no master architect in the valley, and it is impossible for him to spend several years or decades to become a master and then activate the system building.

What if a blood ghost suddenly appears on the fifteenth of next month or the next month?

So the choice of time and efficiency is never the only one, and changes and trade-offs must be made according to the actual situation.

You can find ways to save soul sources, but you can't lose the big picture for the sake of small gains and delay the improvement of Qin Bai and the others' strength.

After the mission was accomplished, Gu Ke asked Chunxiaqiudong and the two little girls to practice martial arts, and he took Qin Bai's two daughters and Mei, Lan, Zhu and Ju to the small hut.

Standing on the west side of the stone platform of the small hut, he closed his eyes and selected the first scheduled system building in the system's 3D terrain map-the Xiuxian Study.

In the golden light, a bamboo house more than ten feet high appeared out of thin air, slowly falling from the air more than ten meters high.

The slope below was covered with gray light, and a gray-black stone platform quickly rose up, which was large enough for the bamboo house to sit on.

After the golden light flashed for a while, it went up, and the bamboo house stood quietly on the stone platform.

The purple bamboo walls, the light gray thatched roof, the doors and windows were not missing or uneven like the small thatched houses, and they were neat and pleasing to the eye.

In the open doors and windows, it was vaguely visible that there was also a set of bamboo bookshelves, tables and chairs inside.

Seeing this for the first time, Miss Qin and Mei Lan Zhu Ju could only open their mouths and stare blankly at everything happening in front of them.

Before they could come back to their senses, Gu Ke had already placed the second new building of the system in the 3D terrain map - Xiuxian Bedroom.

Just like the last scene, the gray light changed the terrain, and the bamboo house appeared and fell in the golden light.

The style of the house was not much different, except that there was a bamboo couch and a bamboo cabinet inside.

Miss Qin and the others were about to close their mouths, but now they stopped again, looking back and forth between the two bamboo houses.

Then, Gu Ke completed a triple-link and placed the third new building - the Xiuxian pergola.

This time, the gray light on the ground was a little far away, and it spread a long distance to the west.

The building in the golden light stretched quickly as it fell, and a bamboo corridor half-hidden and half-revealed, extending from the hillside west of the small hut to the ancestral mausoleum.

The last thing to be placed was the Xiuxian kitchen, which was placed next to the west of the warehouse to facilitate the removal of food and firewood from the warehouse for cooking.

Facing this quadruple link, Qin Bai and the two women were completely silent: We think a piece of land is a bit too little, but you don’t need to throw down a bunch of it at once, right?

Gu Ke didn’t have any extra thoughts, the soul source was to be used.

After the activation, he turned around and greeted the two women: "Let’s go and see our new house."

This made Qin Bai and the others look a little subtle, but they followed quietly.

The rest of the people were still confused, and had not recovered from this "divine miracle".

It was not until they stepped into the door of the study that their expressions changed.

A little bit of inspiration rose from the bottom of everyone's heart, and the difficult problems in martial arts practice suddenly emerged with one or even several possible solutions.

As time went by, this little bit of inspiration grew stronger, the problems that troubled themselves gradually became clearer, and the answers appeared vaguely.

Gu Ke did not have such a clear feeling, but felt a burst of clarity in his mind, and the scenes of daily labor flashed through his mind.

Then there was the scene of digging soil and rubbing wheat and grinding stones with the black evil palm, hitting bamboo, pine trees and stones with the mountain-pushing palm, and tying up the bamboo house with the Tianluo hand.

After a while, the system prompt came: "The player used the study room for the first time and achieved the state of enlightenment."

"Agriculture upgraded to level 20, characteristic plant affinity +2."

"Black Evil Palm upgraded to level 20, characteristic toughness +2."

"Pushing Mountain Palm upgraded to level 10, characteristic giant strength +1."

"Sky Net Hand upgraded to level 10, characteristic agility +1."

Gu Ke couldn't help but secretly smack his lips: If I use coupons to upgrade, it won't cost hundreds of dollars? Profit.

What? I should have upgraded more before, so I can save more? Haha, in the previous life, many people knew that they should make more money and buy houses in advance, instead of buying them late or even not buying them.

If everyone could "know it earlier", there would not be so many regrets in the world.

Compared with those who dream of having regret medicine, Gu Ke still has some numbers in his mind.

You can work hard within your ability, and if you succeed beyond your ability, it's luck, and there's no need to be disappointed if you don't succeed.

Life is like that joke - when you meet a tiger, don't turn around and run away. Just roar loudly and take the initiative to face it, then... at least you can die with dignity.

Life will not change because of your sad face or your flat face, but the latter can at least make yourself more decent.

After a while, he, the initiator, was the first to return to normal.

Turning his head and looking around, he found that all the women looked like they were wandering in the sky. He walked lightly and sat down on the bamboo chair.

This bamboo chair is light purple all over, emitting oily light, like jade. Sitting on it does not make the creaking sound of ordinary bamboo chairs when they are pressed and shaken. It feels more like a wooden chair.

Gu Ke spread his hands and placed them on the smooth armrests on both sides, and his palms groped the bamboo surface.

He felt a little cool at first, but it instantly became neither cold nor hot, but not sticky, which was quite strange.

Look at the system's description of the bamboo house - study characteristics: comprehension +5.

He couldn't help but secretly praise in his heart: If it is really a product of the system, it must be an extraordinary product. A building starts with characteristics +5.

It took a full cup of tea for the girls to wake up from the enlightenment brought by the +5 understanding.

There were still flashes of inspiration in their hearts, but they were not as turbulent as before, but like small stars in the cold night, flickering and dimming occasionally.

Their eyes also moved to Gu Ke, wanting to get an answer.

Gu Ke walked out of the study: "This is the study. Staying in it can increase your understanding of various knowledge. When you encounter difficulties in martial arts training and doing things in the future, you can come here to sit and study."

The girls secretly thought that it was true, followed him around the study, looked at the second bamboo house, and looked forward to it.

They also felt a sense of peace and tranquility as soon as they entered the door.

It is not like the state of Qingxin or Bingxin, it is not that there are fewer distractions, and the mind is focused and sharp. It is more like going from the main road full of exhaust gas to the fresh air in the rainy forest. In short, it is very comfortable.

Moreover, this feeling is extremely peaceful, making people feel relaxed, unlike the study room, which has a strong understanding. When you enter, you will be like "understanding, let me understand it all".

The bedroom feature displayed in the system is soul-soothing +5.

The system prompts: "The player uses the bedroom for the first time, and obtains the soul-soothing feature. Your mental resistance is permanently enhanced."

At this time, he felt that the women's eyes were looking at him again, and he said the answer very tactfully: "This is a bedroom, which can calm the soul. The mind will be more resilient and more resistant to the strange fog illusion."

Miss Qin was just surprised, but not too excited.

The Lieyang Sutra is naturally resistant to strange things. If you have achieved success in cultivation, you will have great resistance to the strange fog illusion. This is one of the reasons why it is extremely lethal to strange things.

And Bai Suqing, who is also a sixth-level, has insufficient blood and qi to kill strange things, and it is difficult to kill them quickly. He needs to endure the erosion of the diffused strange fog illusion, disturbing his mind, and then distracting the battle.

If plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum stay in the strange fog for a long time, they will fall into illusion and lose the power to resist, and they will be used as spare "blood packs".

It is because of their various strange abilities that strange things make people shudder and fear them like tigers.

Therefore, the effect of soothing the soul is very important to all the women.

The next moment, their expressions became subtle again.

Gu Ke just said that this is a bedroom, so how can I stay here reasonably?

Bai Suqing hesitated for a moment and let go of this question.

When the hut first appeared, Gu Ke had been sleeping there, and she still took a nap in it, because the hut was much more comfortable than the ancestral tomb hall.

It's too late to feel embarrassed now.

Moreover, Gu Ke usually goes to bed on time at night, but rarely stays in the hut during the day.

At first, he was busy in the fields, but now he stays in the workshop for half a day.

Bai Suqing is almost certain that he will only come back to this bedroom when he goes to bed at night, and it is basically empty during the day.

She just came here to take a nap during the day, no, to sit and meditate, would he still object? This is absolutely impossible.

Seeing that they had no intention of asking again, Gu Ke took the lead again and went out to the small hillside in the west.

When they reached the top of the hillside, the women saw the general appearance of the third building.

It is a long corridor about three feet wide and ten feet high, with a gray stone floor and a thatched roof. There are thick bamboo poles on both sides every two feet as pillars, extending straight from the hillside to the wall of the Ancestral Mausoleum Hall.

The wall of the Ancestral Mausoleum Hall was simply "cut" out by it for passing through.

This is the long snake formation version of the pergola made by Gu Ke - as long as it is narrow enough, who stipulates that the pergola cannot be built very long.

So it is only a pitiful three feet wide, but the length reaches an astonishing thirty-three feet, but it extends from the workshop in the Ancestral Mausoleum Hall to the outside of the wall, establishing a passage.

In this way, the rule of the Ancestral Mausoleum Hall that "the door must be closed at night to isolate the inside and the outside" was circumvented, and the workshop and the small hut could come and go freely at any time.

As everyone looked at this seemingly ordinary corridor, they walked to the section outside the wall.

Gu Ke only felt a trace of cold and warm air currents penetrate his clothes and drill into his skin, making his skin and muscles on the surface of his body a little itchy.

Looking at the system description again, the pergola feature: dining wind +5.

The system prompts: "The first time the player uses the pergola, he will get the feature: eating air. You can get some energy from the void to replenish the body's needs."

Gu Ke used his perception to check himself and roughly understood what eating air was.

In short, ordinary people can only live for a few days without eating or drinking, but he can at least live for a few months without eating or drinking.

He didn't know how long he could starve, and he was too lazy to test it.

Can you live a good life by drinking northwest wind? He couldn't help asking the system baby: You even deprive me of the pleasure of eating and drinking, do you want to suffocate me to death?

The system did not respond.

Gu Ke could only recall the various delicacies of his previous life, swallowed his saliva subconsciously, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: Fortunately, the food (gu qian) is still there, and the fun of life has not been lost.

Looking at the women again, it is different from before.

While they feel the subtle airflow entering the body from the outside to the inside, they urge him to speak quickly with anxious eyes.

Because they have already noticed that the airflow entering the body can actually drive the blood and qi to grow slowly.

Even if it is not fast, but... standing still can increase blood and qi, where can you find such a good thing?

Gu Ke did not say the word "food qi", but explained directly: "This corridor can draw the essence of heaven and earth, integrate it into your body, and accelerate the growth of blood and qi."

The women are still puzzled.

In the martial arts theory of the Dawu Dynasty, if you want to obtain the essence of heaven and earth from the outside world and strengthen your blood and qi, you can only work hard to eat, eat enough good grains, meat, and medicinal materials, and then practice martial arts hard to stimulate the body's absorption and accelerate the growth of blood and qi.

Although many people have guessed the existence of the essence of heaven and earth, there is no feasible way to absorb it for cultivation.

This is like telling the ancients that humans can control electricity and use it for their own benefit.

The first reaction of the ancients was-bullshit! Can the thunder and lightning in the sky be controlled by humans? That is a job that only gods can do.

Gu Ke continued to explain: "The essence of heaven and earth exists in everything, but it is not suitable for us to absorb directly. Some plants and animals will transform the essence of heaven and earth in their bodies into grain essence, meat, and medicinal materials that people can absorb, and people will eat them to strengthen their blood and qi."

"This corridor is similar to the role of these plants and animals. It can transform the essence of heaven and earth and directly penetrate into our bodies, saving the time of eating and converting blood and qi."

The women understood, and then excitement appeared on their faces.

When people eat, there is a limit to the efficiency of food conversion.

Even Qin Bai, the two sixth-level masters, can't eat a pound of purple wheat a day.

The gas-eating characteristics of the Xiuxian pergola do not have such limitations, because the amount it converts is not large, and it is not to the point where the human body cannot bear it.

As long as they are willing, the women can stay here for twelve hours a day.

However, they are obviously still thinking about the new kitchen, so they turn to take a look.

The kitchen characteristic is food supplement +5, which can make the nutrition of food easier to be absorbed by people.

The first time Gu Ke used the kitchen, he obtained the characteristic of Taotie, which can speed up the digestion and absorption of food.

And the performance of the women is... no matter how poor their appetite is, they can eat one more bowl of food without indigestion.

For the people who are not short of food, the effect of "being a foodie can make you stronger" is only beneficial.

After visiting the four system buildings, the girls couldn't help but think of the future days in their minds - cooking in the kitchen in the morning and noon, then working, drinking tea with a special effect of refreshing the mind in the study in the afternoon, enjoying the flash of inspiration brought by enlightenment, and easily solving the questions about practicing martial arts.

Then go to the corridor to verify what you have learned in the study, during which time the blood and qi will automatically grow.

Go back and take a bath at night, check for omissions and make up for gaps in the state of ice heart, and consolidate the foundation.

If you can still take time to stay in the bedroom for a while to strengthen your mind, it will be a fairy-like day for martial artists.

Miss Qin and Bai Suqing are sure that they can enjoy this set of procedures.

Mei, Lan, Zhu and Ju quickly woke up from their beautiful imagination: Where do you get so much time?

You have to do chores in the morning, teach the maids and Xiaoman and Xiaoping'er to practice martial arts in the afternoon, and stay at Gu Ke's house at night?

Perhaps speeding up the speed of doing chores and taking turns to teach others to practice martial arts in the afternoon can save a lot of time.
