Chapter 82 The Eccentric Old Eunuch! Wielding a Sword!
Chapter 82 The Eccentric Old Eunuch! Wielding a Sword!
Chen Fan nodded slightly.
He knew that there had been many strangers in the palace recently.
Those people, like Master Ren, seemed to have been recruited by Emperor Jianwen.
His cultivation levels varied greatly, so he didn't pay much attention to them.
After all, Chen Fan was just an old eunuch who raised horses; he had no time to pay attention to others.
He then chatted with Xiaodengzi for a couple of minutes before turning and leaving.
Autumn is approaching.
The wind blowing here is also quite cool.
On his way back inside, Chen Fan subconsciously wrapped his clothes tighter around himself.
He wasn't thinking much about it; he just walked with his back hunched over.
After returning to the house.
Chen Fan stretched his back and then went to the table to eat breakfast.
After consuming two mid-grade spirit stones, a radish, and six large bowls of spirit water, he quickly felt a surge in spiritual energy in his dantian.
Unhurriedly, he began to sit cross-legged and meditate, circulating his qi throughout his body.
About an hour passed.
Chen Fan opened his eyes.
He exhaled a breath of stale air, and his eyes gleamed with a sharp light.
An extremely strong aura emanated from him.
Meow…
Upon sensing this, Xiao Hua, who was sleeping, was so frightened that she lay trembling on the table, too scared to move.
Upon seeing this, Chen Fan's lips curled up in a smile.
Since breaking through to the second level of the Qi Refining Realm, he has been consolidating his cultivation.
After cultivating this morning, Chen Fan's spiritual sense expanded considerably.
The distance has increased from one zhang to three zhang.
Chen Fan could see every corner of this small house clearly.
Having grown stronger, he smiled and then disappeared from the spot.
Meow…
After the old eunuch disappeared, Xiao Hua, who was lying on the table, regained her freedom.
Without the slightest hesitation, it leaped out of the window in a flash.
A world within a bowl.
Ground.
Eunuch Wei overestimated himself.
The scale of the project, spanning fifty acres, was far beyond what he could have accomplished alone.
Although his cultivation had recovered to the Innate Realm, there was simply too much work to do.
After doing a series of farm chores such as weeding, loosening the soil, and sowing seeds, everyone was exhausted.
I want to complete the task assigned by Chen Gonggong as soon as possible.
Eunuch Wei estimated that he wouldn't be able to finish this job in less than two months!
"I'm busy..."
Just as Eunuch Wei was feeling sentimental, he heard a familiar voice.
Looking back, the old eunuch with a smile on his face quietly appeared on the ridge behind him.
The unsurprised Eunuch Wei sighed and nodded, saying:
"Father-in-law, you've arrived... Aren't you refining pills today?"
Chen Fan shook his head slightly.
He's been refining pills for the past two days, and he's been vomiting and having diarrhea from the pills!
Even so, he still couldn't concoct the Spirit Gathering Pill.
After much thought, Chen Fan decided to take a break for now.
"Let's do some work today... otherwise, a month or two will pass and we still won't have finished planting the spirit rice seeds and sweet potatoes!"
Upon hearing this...
Eunuch Wei blushed.
Knowing that the old eunuch was complaining about his slow work, he couldn't help but speak up:
"Father-in-law, this is fifty acres of land... We really can't manage it all by ourselves..."
"Okay, okay," Chen Fan said sarcastically.
"That's why we're here to help you... But seriously, Eunuch Wei, cultivating immortality is much harder than farming. If you can't even persevere with this... how can you cultivate immortality?"
Eunuch Wei was stumped by the question.
Unable to speak, he felt like a mute eating bitter melon, unable to express his suffering.
Chen Fan smiled when he saw this.
After he finished hammering, he picked up a hoe and went down to the field.
It is faintly visible that the sweet potatoes and radishes in the eight acres of land have taken root and sprouted, and are growing very well.
At this growth rate, they will be mature in another ten days or so!
Upon arriving at the field, Chen Fan first weeded, then watered and fertilized.
Since the water used for watering was a mixture of spiritual water and ordinary water, he did not ask Eunuch Wei to do this job.
One reason was that the spiritual water was too potent, and Chen Fan was afraid that the old eunuch would steal a drink from it.
Secondly, watering and fertilizing are too simple tasks, and he also wants to have a sense of participation in farming.
Chen Fan simply waved his hand.
He then sprinkled water from the ladle in his hand, creating a large mist of rain that fell to the ground.
Soon, Chen Fan had finished fertilizing several acres of sweet potatoes and radishes all by himself.
When he turned around to look at Eunuch Wei, he found the old eunuch working hard in the new field next door.
Judging from the way he was swinging the hoe so forcefully, it was as if he had been provoked.
Upon seeing this, Chen Fan's lips curled up in a smile.
After watering and fertilizing, he stretched his back and headed back to the yard.
hiss…
In the stable, Black Wind neighed in fright when it saw the old eunuch arrive.
These past two days, it's been used as a guinea pig, constantly vomiting and having diarrhea.
Now I'm even more physically exhausted and can't hold on any longer!
"Don't be afraid... We're not refining pills today..."
Chen Fan smiled as he walked over.
He glanced at the frightened Black Wind and followed him into the courtyard.
A yellow gourd was hanging on the courtyard wall.
This was bought by Chen Fan from the market; it contained spirit wine.
He would drink it whenever he had a spare moment.
At first, Chen Fan didn't like drinking.
But after drinking with Eunuch Wei twice, I fell in love with that feeling!
"Tsk tsk tsk... tastes good..."
Chen Fan picked up the gourd and took a few more sips of wine, a smile spreading across his face.
Satisfied, he let out a burp and suddenly felt like practicing his swordplay!
Then he took out his longsword and started brandishing it outside the courtyard.
Amidst the flashing sword light, bricks and stones occasionally shattered outside the courtyard, or dust billowed up.
Seeing this, Black Wind, who was hiding in the stable, trembled all over.
I thought to myself, "That old eunuch has been acting a bit strange lately!"
Why is it always either alchemy or swordplay?
"Father-in-law...this is the Qingping Sword Technique..."
Just as Chen Fan was getting into practicing his swordsmanship.
Eunuch Wei ran back.
When he saw Eunuch Chen's swordsmanship, his face was full of disbelief!
"No... what is the Qingping Sword Technique?" Chen Fan feigned confusion.
"I have no idea what you're talking about!"
Eunuch Wei was speechless!
The thieves from the Yin Corpse Sect entered the palace several times, all for the sake of the Qingping Sword Technique.
He thus incurred the wrath of these people.
Who knew that during one of the fights, Eunuch Wei returned to find that the heavily guarded Qingping Sword Technique was missing!
He initially believed that the Yin Corpse Sect had stolen it, and in a fit of rage, he engaged in a frenzied battle with these people!
After all that, Eunuch Wei finally discovered that the Qingping Sword Technique was with the old eunuch!
"Father-in-law, stop pretending... This Azure Lotus Sword Technique is unique. It was lost last time and has never reappeared. I never expected it to be with you..."
Chen Fan blushed.
He had drunk too much and only started wielding the sword on a whim.
With his keen eye, Eunuch Wei immediately noticed something amiss.
Chen Fan, no longer pretending, nodded and said:
"Alright, since you've figured it out, I won't hide it anymore. This Qingping Sword Technique was indeed obtained by me, it was just a coincidence..."
"What coincidence?" Eunuch Wei said angrily.
"You're clearly stealing..."
As soon as he finished saying the word "steal," Eunuch Wei shut his mouth.
Seeing the old eunuch approaching with a sword drawn, he felt a burning hatred in his heart!
"What? We steal? With our strength, do we need to steal?!"
Chen Fan walked step by step to Eunuch Wei's side and said:
"I'll give you a chance to speak again. Is this stealing?"
