House Witch Chapter 675

Chapter 675 675. Farming

The location of Yae Mansion is relatively remote, outside the city of Heian-kyo.

Dorothy came out of the city and strolled leisurely on the country road. As she walked, she admired the rural scenery that was hard to see in the outside world.

The two sides of the small road are endless farmland. The aura in these farmlands is ethereal and the soil is fertile. It can be seen at a glance that it is very suitable for planting various spiritual materials.

At the same time, it happened to be the season of planting, and many Japanese witches were working in the fields at this time.

Although they are witches, the farming methods of these extraordinary beings are not much different from ordinary people at this time. They are all facing the loess and back to the sky, which is very hard to watch.

Planting elixir is a very troublesome thing. Some precious spiritual seeds need to be carefully guided and activated with magic power. This kind of thing is not difficult. The only problem is that the activity status of each seed is different. Therefore, the strength of magic power required for activation is also different.

Therefore, this kind of thing cannot be operated in batches, and the farmers and witches can only be patiently spent a little bit of time grinding.

And it's not just that the seeds can be left alone after activating them. After the spiritual plants germinate, they still have to adjust the supply of spiritual energy according to different growth conditions, and check from time to time whether there are any pests or something.

In short, this is a very troublesome thing, time-consuming and labor-intensive.

The house witch stood by the side of the road, watching an elderly mother-in-law teaching her little granddaughter how to farm.

"Look, girl, just like this, like that, and like this again"

The magic power bloomed in the old woman's hand, and she delicately injected the weak magic power into the spiritual plant's seed in her hand, and the originally quiet seed soon emitted a weak fluorescence, and then some buds broke out of the cocoon.

"It can germinate in this way, and then just bury the germinated seeds in the soil, have you learned it?"

The old man demonstrated it again, and then asked the granddaughter beside him.

"Well, it looks very simple, grandma, I learned."

The half-old girl, who seemed to be eleven or twelve years old, nodded, and then picked up a seed and began to input magic power.

However, it is obvious that the young little witch does not have a good control over her own magic power. She input too much magic power all at once, and the fragile seeds quickly mutated under the strong magic power, and then began to demonize , and finally grew a big mouth full of sharp teeth and mucus, just like that, biting towards the bewildered little witch.

The house witch who was squatting on the road watching this scene was taken aback. She didn't expect this thing to be so fierce, but seeing that the little witch might be injured, she quickly reached out her hand to save people, but a sharp cold light swept across. The mutated Lingzhi who was showing off his power just now has been cut in two.

"What a fast scythe."

Dorothy looked at the old woman holding a sickle, and couldn't help feeling so emotional.

Even in the eyes of a warrior like her, the scythe just now was amazing, no matter the speed, angle, or strength of the knife, it was all perfect, and it could be regarded as proficient in technique, reaching the pinnacle.

Such skillful techniques are obviously impossible to achieve overnight, and it takes a lot of time and energy to practice hard.

However, the house witch looked at the old woman's wrinkled face, and was not too surprised by it.

A witch's appearance generally depends on her heart, so it is not possible to judge a witch's age hastily from her appearance. Some witches who look young may be ten thousand years old with a young mind.

But relatively, most of those old witches are not too young. After all, the aging of the heart also takes time to wear out. The little witches in their teens have experienced vicissitudes of life, and the cases of aging mentality are only a minority after all.

This old woman is so old that her face is full of wrinkles. It can only be said that she must have a lot of life experience. She must be a witch who is hundreds of years old, and it is normal for such an old witch to have one or two unique skills.

This mother-in-law has been a farmer for hundreds of years, and the way of wielding a sickle must have been honed into instinct in the day-to-day labor.

"That's right, my grandma is the best with scythes in the village. During the harvest season every year, my family is always the most efficient."

Upon hearing Dorothy's praise, the terrified little witch just wiped the spirit plant mucus on her face, then raised her head and said so proudly.

However, before she finished speaking, the old woman covered her little granddaughter's mouth, then pressed her head, and bowed humbly to the house witch.

"Grandpa, please forgive my little granddaughter's offense, she speaks without restraint."

The weather-beaten old man could tell from the clothes on the young witch in front of him that she was a big shot. Although he didn't know if it was the kind of Chinese grandpa, but whether it was or not, it was definitely not the most despicable farm girl like them. offensive.

Anyway, just apologize first.

And the young little witch didn't understand what happened at this time, and she didn't understand why she had to apologize to others when she said nothing wrong, and what she said was the truth. people.

The little witch was a little aggrieved, her eyes were red, and she wanted to refute, but grandma kept covering her mouth, blocking all her rebuttals.

"Mother-in-law, I'm not a grandfather, and the child didn't say anything wrong, so you don't have to."

The otaku witch hurriedly dodged to avoid the bow of the old and the young, she said so.

However, the old woman did not straighten her back. She still pressed her granddaughter, and then humbly bowed and apologized with her granddaughter.

This made Dorothy a little helpless.

It's easy to break the ghosts in the city, but difficult to break the ghosts in the heart.

Even though she has sent Izanagi to hell, she has almost demolished Dongying Island, but the rules formed on this island over the past tens of thousands of years cannot be erased in a short while.

However, there is no need to rush, the power of time is fair, it can strengthen certain things, and it can also erase certain things.

"Okay, I forgive your offense, you can look up, or I will be really angry."

She had no choice but to keep a straight face, pretending to be a grandpa.

"Yes, yes, we listen to you, grandpa."

With the forgiveness of the young grandpa, the old woman stood up straight, while the proud little witch hid behind the old man at this time, her big watery eyes were a little afraid, a little confused, and a little nervous. looked at Dorothy curiously.

The house witch smiled gently at the little witch, and then looked at the old lady.

"Grandma, do you know the Witch's House?"

asked Dorothy.

"The Witch's House? Oh, you know, I'm also a member of the Witch's House. A few days ago, Lord Tengu came to the village to inform everyone to join that Witch's House. They said that if you enter, you will get a share of the land."

The old lady was taken aback for a moment, but then said with a smile.

"Actually, to tell you the truth, grandpa, at the beginning, everyone in the village didn't really believe that there was such a thing as a pie in the sky, but because it was Master Tengu, everyone didn't dare not listen, so they all signed up."

Perhaps it was because this young grandpa was indeed kinder. The experienced old man knew that it would be easier to win their favor by being more relaxed towards this kind of grandpa, so she let herself relax a little, and then opened up the chatterbox.

"However, I didn't expect that the grandpas of the Witch's House were truly benevolent people. They actually allocated the land to us, and they promised that after that, only 10% of the income from the field would be paid, and the remaining 90% would be our own."

When the old lady talked about this, her face was filled with an unstoppable smile.

After all, when she worked as a farm laborer for the Chinese grandparents before, not to mention keeping 90% of the harvest in the field, if they failed to meet the harvest targets of the grandpas, they themselves had to pay back to compensate the grandpas for not taking good care of their spiritual fields. loss.

Of course, she also knows that whoever believes the good things that the grandpas say is stupid, and those grandpas in the Witch's House say good things, but it is definitely impossible to really leave 90% for them. In the heart of the old man, 90% will definitely It belonged to the grandparents, and to be able to really leave something for themselves is a beautiful thing that they never dared to think about in the past.

And, what if, just in case you meet someone who keeps his word

Forget it, there is no chance, the old man would rather believe that his lingtian will be able to produce 100,000 catties per mu this year than to believe in the promise of his grandparents.

"Well, that's a good thing. In fact, I also joined the Witch's House. Now the entire Dongying Island is owned by the Witch's House. We Chinese, like your mother-in-law, are all working for the Witch's House. Grandpa is from outside the island, so he does what he says."

Dorothy smiled, and she said so.

"Is that so?"

The old lady who had been farming all her life couldn't help but stare wide-eyed when she heard the words of the Chinese grandfather in front of her. For a person like her who had never been out of the village much in her life, it was really unimaginable that the entire Dongying Island changed hands. But since the Chinese grandpa said that the Witch's House kept its promise, then...

It's over, it must be a dog of a feather, I hope I can keep half of the harvest this year.

The old lady thought sadly in her heart.

House Witch: "."

How good is an old farmer's acting skills? Dorothy can roughly see the disappointment of the old man even without using mind reading skills, which makes people speechless.

Damn, you Chinese are really damned, how come your reputation is so bad.

Originally, she wanted to take advantage of the prestige of the Chinese, the original ruler of Japan, so as to promote her association in a disguised form, but Dorothy never expected that this would have a counterproductive effect, so she had to change the topic quickly.

"Mother-in-law, in fact, the Witch's House treats everyone equally. You see, we Chinese are now farming together. I have never farmed before. Can you please teach me how to farm? Or else It won't be good if the piece of land I allocated is deserted.”

She quickly put on a look of asking for advice.

Of course, this is just an excuse. Dorothy also knows a thing or two about potions, and farming is naturally easy for her. It is not difficult at all. She just wants to see how the farming level of Dongying Island is up.

"Well, it's really not good to panic. I just want to teach my granddaughter to farm. Grandpa, if you don't mind it, you can join me."

How can an old man who has been farming all his life listen to the words of letting the land go to waste? Although she does not think that this young grandpa who looks delicate and tender, spoiled and pampered can really farm the land, but everyone says Yes, the old man decided to teach it well.

She is not pitying grandpa, but pitying the field, so don't let this ignorant grandpa ruin the Lingtian.

At that moment, with such a simple idea in mind, the old woman took out two seeds again and distributed one to Dorothy and the little granddaughter. She also took out a seed, explained it in detail again, and then encouraged the two with her eyes. Try it yourself.

The little granddaughter might have been frightened by the demonized seeds before, and she was afraid to try it, so she just looked at Dorothy quietly.

The house witch is naturally not cowardly, just kidding, she is super good at farming.

At the moment, she skillfully input the magic power, activated the seed in her hand, and then

Then nothing happened, the seed turned over silently, not bothering her.

Dorothy: "????"

Good guy, I was despised by a seed, can you bear it?

The house witch with a tic-tac-toe popped out of her forehead and gathered her magic power. On the spot, she wanted to give this rebellious seed a set of advanced potion cultivation process, so that the seed could directly become the shape she wanted.

But before she could move, the old lady reached out and took the seed from her hand, and then smiled and encouraged her.

"Grandpa, maybe you are born to do this job bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah, look at what I said stupidly, I want to say that you are really talented in farming, this seed likes your strength, grandpa, so I'm a bit greedy and want to eat more."

The old woman said so, and then she stretched out her hand and touched the seed. Immediately, the small seed sprouted from the cocoon, and a small goldfish emerged from it, and pointed its tail at Dorothy.

"Haha, grandpa, this little guy is a bit shy."

Dorothy: "????"

The house witch was really stunned this time, she looked at the old woman in shock.

Wow, what kind of Pava is this that can communicate with plants?

There are not many plants with wisdom in the witch world, but obviously this Japanese food crop called fish grass is not among them. This is obviously a low-IQ spiritual plant, otherwise it would not be regarded as a food plant up.

Dorothy has eaten this fish grass some time ago. It looks like fish, but it tastes more like tofu. The meat is very delicate and melts in the mouth, very delicious.

"Grandma, does this fishweed also have thoughts?"

Dorothy couldn't help asking.

"Of course not."

The old lady said it as a matter of course.

"However, plants are also life, and as long as they are life, they always have a heart. Although this fish plant has no wisdom, but I have planted fish plants all my life, but I can barely understand the emotions and needs of these guys."

The old man stroked the fish grass in his hand like this, while the silly little fish rubbed the old man's fingers affectionately.

"In fact, people say that the fish and grass I grow are the fattest and the best. People often ask me the secret, but I really don't have any secrets. At first, I just thought that we grow this fish and grass for food, so before harvesting these It is only natural that the fish and grass are well taken care of."

"But later I discovered that the fish weeds we harvested are actually dead bodies. Fish and weeds will die as long as the mother gives birth to seeds. These guys are actually quite short-lived, and if I can make their short-lived Live a life of comfort and happiness, why not?"

"And the happy dead fish and grass seem to be more delicious, and the seeds they produce will be more and stronger, and there will be another bumper harvest in the coming year."

The old lady revealed her unique skills without any concealment.

"Uh, do plants have hearts?"

Dorothy looked down at the seeds and fell into deep thought. It took a long time before she raised her head, looked seriously at the old man in front of her, and sincerely asked for advice.

"Grandma, I want to learn farming."

Just like that, the nerd witch planted a field for a day.

Dorothy is raising fish

No, I can't do it anymore. How can fish live without water?
