I became an old man in my leisure time

Qiu Shuang has been trying to make ink and paper. Before, there were grass, rattan, bamboo and pine, and now there is hemp.

The task of the two girls, Chun and Xia, is to twist the newly grown hemp into threads and weave cloth.

Most of the silkworms and silk reeling are sold to cloth shops. If they really make silk, they are sold to rich people. They can only wear clothes made of their own linen at home, and they are not unfamiliar with this.

However, these jobs can only improve everyone's quality of life. They can be done when they have time. The most important thing for everyone is to practice martial arts.

He set a small goal for this year, that is, except for Saranzhu and himself, everyone will be promoted to the second round.

Only in this way, everyone will have the opportunity to resist and escape when encountering strange things.

Moreover, everyone can be used as human-shaped large animals, and the work efficiency will be doubled, making it easier to do anything.

…

On the eleventh day of the first lunar month, it was 100 consecutive days of signing in. Gu Ke finally got an extra reward-level 0 Gongshu, with the characteristics of dexterity. A small iron hammer, damage 2, indestructible, dust-proof.

Gongshu, of course, is the book of craftsmen.

He went to the workshop to experiment and found that the dexterity of the mind and the agility of the Tianluo hand are different. The mind and the dexterity are closely connected.

When the mind moves, the hands move, and the work is more handy.

If this characteristic is improved, it will be more than enough to be a master craftsman in the future.

There is nothing much to say about the small iron hammer. It is considered to be the most basic manufacturing tool.

But with it, you no longer need to use the back of the poor little hatchet to knock and hit. It is really convenient.

And with the hammer in the left hand and the knife in the right hand in front of you, you suddenly feel an inexplicable sense of intimacy.

The power of workers and peasants is far-reaching.

In the busyness, time came to January 15.

According to the rules of the previous life, today is the Lantern Festival, but unfortunately there is no such saying in Dawu, and there may be monsters refreshed.

So there was no celebration on this day. Only Qin Bai and the two girls, Meizhu, ambushed in the workshop.

The overall upgrade of the system buildings during this period has rapidly improved everyone's cultivation progress.

Qin Bai and his companions, who had obtained the Sunflower Sutra, were not as anxious to advance as before.

Instead, they repaired and stabilized the Great Bright Wheel and the Immovable Wheel to lay a solid foundation for opening the third wheel.

Even so, the two were still much stronger than on the fifteenth of last month.

Meizhu and his two daughters successfully lit up the Taicang acupoint and opened the Immovable Wheel, barely having the strength to...harass the monster.

They would probably be defeated by the Black Monster, but at least they could stop and interfere with the opponent, though it would be a bit life-consuming.

As a result, Miss Qin's idea of ​​letting them stay in the hut was strongly opposed by the two girls.

Considering that the workshop could conceal the breath and block the monster, Miss Qin finally agreed to let them come together.

But Meizhu and his two daughters could not take action unless it was necessary.

Of course, the two girls agreed.

They just wanted to be there, so that if Miss Qin was in danger, they could take over, instead of dragging her down.

Gu Ke also came with them.

Although he could not open the chakra, he had a super strong physique and ran much faster than Meizhu.

System protection is his trump card.

Qin Bai and the others can do nothing to him, and Bai Suqing has heard Xiaoman say many times that "Old Gu chopped the flower demon with one knife", so she acquiesced to his coming.

That night, the full moon shrouded in gray-red mist rose in the sky, and the valley was silent.

Under Gu Ke's perception, a human-like black shadow emerged from under the statue of the founding martial ancestor in the hall. It was another black ghost.

Compared with the previous one, this black ghost was short and stout, like a flat turtle without a neck, and its large soft limbs fluttered like seaweed.

The whole thing was pitch black, as thick as ink, and the strange fog it emitted was also dark black, which could easily cover the moonlight.

Carrying a large piece of dark strange fog, it floated out of the hall like a giant jellyfish, slightly raised its neckless head, and looked around.

After a while, it seemed to stay there in a daze.

Because it did not sense the breath of any human beings nearby, nor the breath of other strange monsters and demons.

In the system building, only Gu Ke and his employees are not restricted. The rest, whether human, ghost, demon or monster, only have the most common five senses.

Although this black ghost is strong, it can't sense Gu Ke and others in the workshop.

After staying there for a while, it floated to a window that opened to the workshop, trying to pass through the workshop and began to patrol the valley to ensure that the blood sacrifice formation was intact and effective.

This is also the only purpose of its release.

Sensing its actions, Gu Ke was slightly startled, but did not hesitate.

Find the right time to open temporary access rights for it, so that its ghost head and upper body can get into the window at once.

Temporary access rights, canceled.

The originally erratic black ghost trembled all over, and even the large area of ​​ghost fog that was dissipating outside was stagnant.

Gu Ke, who stood in this window at the beginning, had quietly adjusted his steps and raised his hands high, feeling that there was a ball of rich energy under its ghost head, probably inside the chest.

This feeling, could it be a ghost crystal? This thought flashed through his mind, and he suddenly chopped down with the small hatchet that was ready to strike by the window sill.

The hatchet drew a beautiful arc, breaking the black ghost's body and passing through the dense energy in its body.

The figures of Qin Bai and the other man who had been ambushing on the side flashed beside him, but they did not move again.

With a hissing sound, the ghost's head and a small part of its chest slid down diagonally, and hit the workshop with a bang.

Then the large part of its body that was still outside leaned against the outer wall and slowly fell to the ground without any movement.

The system prompts: "Kill the black ghost, destroy the ghost crystal, and recover 160 units of soul source."

"Obtain the special raw material, the remains of the black ghost, which can be used to make special fertilizer for the fairy field, and slightly improve the quality of the fairy field."

Gu Ke was surprised at first, but then he smiled: There is such a good thing? There are 160 units of soul source, and special materials are "exploded"? It's a fortune.

"Is this ghost dead?" Bai Suqing asked to confirm.

Gu Ke nodded: "The ghost crystal is destroyed, and it can't be deader."

Bai Suqing's eyes flashed with green light when he heard it, and he restrained his blood and said lightly: "You were too adventurous just now, so stay in the hut next time."

Miss Qin nodded subconsciously, and then she felt that it was not good to show "I am the same", and quickly frowned: "Although your knife is not bad, it is a black ghost after all, and I will be more confident if I join hands with her."

The words of the two women pulled Gu Ke back from the surprise, and he smiled: "Who let it choose my window! The position is so handsome, I can't help but give it a knife..."

The two pretty faces are still tense, with no sign of relief.

He could only nod: "Okay, next time you guys will start, I won't mess around."

Qin Bai looked at each other and finally let it go.

Mei Zhu and the other two girls also came over, looking at the black ghost that was chopped into two pieces, with a lot of questions in their heads: Such a strong black ghost died just like that?

And judging from the way he died, it was obviously not the work of the eldest lady and Bai Suqing, but the small hatchet in someone's hand was very consistent with the wound.

So, what are we here for? Mei Zhu was shocked and confused.

It was Bai Suqing who thought of the key point first: "The ghost crystal is gone, does it affect you?"

Gu Ke heard this, looked at the 160 units of soul source in the system, and smiled brilliantly: "No problem, everything is the same as before."

Bai Suqing didn't ask any more questions after hearing this.

Miss Qin was muttering in her heart: What new things can this guy come up with? Otherwise, let him change tonight and see?

Before he spoke, Gu Ke couldn't help himself.

Killing a black ghost with my own hands is more fulfilling than killing that sugarcane-like ghost-faced sunflower monster.

What? The black ghost was imprisoned by the system, and the system's ones are his, so it's still his credit.

He was in high spirits as he walked along the pergola towards the small hut, while calculating where the soul source should go.

The four ghosts before tonight only gave 150 units of soul source in total, which is not as good as this one.

Look at the system prompt again: "You can activate a piece of land for cultivation (two mu of land), which requires 40 units of soul source."

"You can activate the system building roadside stall, which requires 100 units of soul source."

Then all the options to upgrade the existing system buildings are below.

Gu Ke's face was happy, and he almost wanted to click the roadside stall construction option immediately, but he finally held back.

How much soul source is it to build it directly? Providing a standard bamboo house can be discounted by 60%, which can save 60 soul sources, and it must not be wasted.

Putting away his thoughts, he said to the girls across from him: "Tonight, we can only summon one fairy field first. We need to build more bamboo houses for the rest."

The girls just nodded. Anyway, no matter how many things he threw down, it would be profitable, and they didn't mind.

Back to the hut, Gu Ke placed the fairy field No. 4 to the east of field No. 1.

The gray light was still eye-catching in the dark night, alarming Chunxiaqiudong and others who were not asleep, and they all came out to check.

Xiaoman's cheers could be heard from afar: "Old Gu has conjured something again."

Gu Ke:...This girl, am I conjuring something? Well, okay, it seems to be really conjuring something.

He pretended not to hear it, turned around and said: "Then everyone should go to bed early tonight, and get up tomorrow and then..."

Bai Suqing interrupted him: "No need for tomorrow. It's only the end of the Xu hour, and they still have the energy to come out to watch the fun, and they must not be able to sleep. Let's work together to plant two mu of land, it won't take half an hour."

Gu Ke:...Why do your words always remind me of the article "Cock Crows in the Middle of the Night"? I have land and hired workers, but my last name is not Zhou.

However, he did not object after all.

Sister Bai has become the "general manager" of the family during this period. She takes time out every day to arrange daily affairs.

She knows how much each person has done and how much they can do.

Besides, with the strength of all the girls who have just started, and the treatment of eating well every day, it is not easy to get tired.

So a group of people lit pine resin torches and sneaked into the newly appeared No. 4 field in the middle of the night to start farming.

It's not surprising that Bai Suqing was too anxious, because there were many plants and seeds traded from Xiongjia Village.

Small shrubs such as onions, ginger, garlic and pepper are okay, the amount is not large, and they grow fast.

After the purple bamboo in the No. 1 fairy field is dug up, a few centimeters of land will be freed up for them, and there is no need to worry about it.

However, fruit trees are perennial shrubs and trees, which occupy a large area and need several months to grow before they can be stored stably.

And the ghost face sunflower is not an ordinary plant. It can only be planted in the fairy field, and it will take more than a year to mature.

Without a long-term stable fairy field, most of the seeds and branches of these fruit trees were still stored in the warehouse.

With the addition of the No. 4 fairy field, the problem was naturally solved.

Bo Su had a plan in the morning, and he arranged two children to take out plants and seeds from the warehouse in turn, and the others took them away and planted them in turn.

The distance between plants was arranged relatively large to avoid fighting for territory with each other.

Two ghost face sunflower seeds were planted separately in the northeast corner, and a small fairy field was specially marked out, which not only ensured that they were always bathed in sunlight during the day, but also that other plants would not rob the fairy field of nutrients.

In terms of fighting for territory, there is no difference between plants and animals.

If you win the fight, you survive, and if you lose the fight, you either die or change your habits and continue to survive.

However, there is no territorial division for other fruit trees.

When the trees grow up, the small shrubs and flowers that like to grow under the forest will be transplanted under them. The three types of trees, high, medium and low, will be used as needed, which will not only make reasonable use of the space, but also free up the No. 1 fairy field.

This is a long-term and meticulous job. Now it is just the beginning. There is no need to rush. We can adjust it step by step in the future.

There is strength in numbers. The work was done in less than three quarters of an hour. Everyone was not tired, but excited and smiling.

Among these large and small trees are hawthorn, wild peach, plum tree, chestnut tree and so on.

Every time you plant a plant at this moment, it means that you can have one more kind of fruit to eat in the future.

Of course, under Xiaoman’s daily "popular science", everyone knows that the fruits in the mountains are not delicious.

But the fruits produced in the fairy field are probably not bad.

…

The next day, Gu Ke was awakened by the biological clock.

After getting dressed, he went to the hut to sign in, and received 10 basic reward points, 160 extra reward points, 16 Tianfu Tongbao, and the non-grade martial arts Water Floating (bound), with the characteristic of light body.

Gu Ke: ... What the hell is water floating? I only practiced the Black Evil Palm, not the Iron Sand Palm.

And although the black ghost last night looked a bit like a black turtle, it wouldn't really swim in the water!

Although he complained, he didn't slow down at all. He immediately clicked to bind, and then... he felt a little lighter.

Then he added the points to the Wuxiang Zhenjing, and finally made it reach level 50, with +1 for the four attributes of body, injury, injury reduction, and void body, and +50 for the four extra attributes.

There was obvious numbness and itching in the body, the perception range quickly expanded, and the perception was refined again, making him stand in front of the sign-in calendar for a long time.

After waking up, he excitedly went to the creek, used the water float and stepped on the water surface, and as a result, half of his leg was wet after one step.

Well, it seems that the initial lightening effect is not so exaggerated. He made a regretful judgment.

But in the future, it can be used for running and walking, going up and down the mountain. Just like other system martial arts, it is enough to upgrade it daily.

He returned to the house with his feet full of water and was discovered by Xiaoman.

When he asked him that he actually went to step on the water secretly, he looked quite regretful: "Old Gu, you have changed! You would rather play in the water alone without taking me."

Gu Ke was taking off his shoes. Hearing this, he raised his wet shoes and socks unhappily and pretended to throw them at her.

Xiaoman laughed, rushed over and snatched the shoes and socks, shook off the excess water, and then took the small oven out of the house to bake them.

When the girls got up one after another and came to the hut for dinner, Gu Ke put on the dried shoes and socks again.

In order to increase efficiency, these days, Bo Suqing explicitly removed most of the red tape rules in front of everyone.

She didn't care who made what food in private, but all three meals were prepared by Chunxiaqiudong in the kitchen and sent to the small hut for everyone to eat together.
