Chapter 58: Chapter 58 Fang Kangsheng Goes Up the Mountain

“Alright, that’s good!” Fang Yun said, taking out some spirit rice grains and handing them to Fang Kangsheng.
“This will be your food for the next while, handle it yourself. Let me know when you need more!”
Then, Fang Yun went into the canyon and planted a few acres of rice using the leftover grain seeds.
With these as food, he no longer needed to worry about Fang Kangsheng’s survival.
For the next ten or so days, Fang Yun temporarily let Fang Kangsheng adapt to the mountain environment.
...
At this time, the spirit rice was also entering its growth period.
So, Fang Yun began accelerating the growth of the spirit rice again.
Fang Kangsheng watched with wide eyes as Fang Yun performed the growth skills by the spirit fields and the spirit rice grew wildly under the green light.
“Clan Leader, you’re amazing! Are you an immortal?” Fang Kangsheng said excitedly to Fang Yun.
Fang Yun glanced at him, “I’m not any kind of immortal. Okay, stop the nonsense and follow me!”
Saying this, he led Fang Kangsheng to the northern mountains, beginning to extract more nutrient-rich soil.
The purpose of bringing Fang Kangsheng was to familiarize him with the spirit rice planting process, not expecting much help from him.
After bringing back the soil, he removed the soil from the spirit fields, placed it where the vines were planted, and replaced it with the brought soil.
Seeing the newly sprouted vines, Fang Yun nodded in satisfaction.
While using the spirit rain skill to replenish the spirit field’s spiritual energy, Fang Yun also took the opportunity to give some spiritual energy to the vines, ensuring their smoother growth.
After a busy month, the spirit rice finally entered its mature stage.
Next would be a month of waiting.
With the presence of the Spiritual Insects, there was no need for him to worry too much about the spirit rice.
Having completed the tasks with the spirit rice, Fang Yun took Fang Kangsheng to harvest the grain in the canyon.
He had previously spent a little time accelerating the growth of these grains during breaks from cultivating the spirit rice. It was only a few acres of grain, so it did not take much time.
After completing this, Fang Yun finally had time to look at the vines by the spirit field.
The growth period of the vines was somewhat unexpected to Fang Yun. A month had passed, and these vines still hadn’t entered their growth period, so Fang Yun could only continue to wait.
*Although he used Life Essence Qi instead of growth skills when accelerating the vines, Fang Yun still did not dare to tamper with them during their seedling stage, fearing it would be detrimental to their growth and development.*
*This would be a waste of his time.*
*However, this experiment might need to proceed to determine the differences between his Life Essence Qi and the growth skills’ wood-attributed spiritual energy.*
*It’s just that he couldn’t use these five carefully selected vines for such experiments.*
After all, there were other abandoned vines in the canyon, which were perfect for experiments.
For now, there was no rush, so Fang Yun began teaching Fang Kangsheng literacy.
Fang Kangsheng, coming from a poor family, although initiated by the clan, did not know many characters.
Also, given his seemingly not-so-bright demeanor, Fang Yun did not expect him to learn too many characters.
However, literacy was fundamental to cultivation.
*Fang Yun was quite anxious, hoping Fang Kangsheng could reach the first level of Qi cultivation as soon as possible.*
*However, being anxious wouldn’t help in this matter; it could only proceed slowly.*
He took out the Chang Chun Skill and began teaching Fang Kangsheng character by character.
But after a few days, seeing his confused expression, Fang Yun could only shake his head helplessly.
*Even though he had anticipated it, he still underestimated Fang Kangsheng’s slowness in learning.*
*It took three days to teach him one character, making Fang Yun feel quite resigned.*
“Clan Leader, am I stupid?” Fang Kangsheng asked cautiously.
Fang Yun looked at him, shook his head, and said nothing.
*Perhaps it was his teaching method that was the problem, using the Chang Chun Skill as a teaching template, which was indeed too difficult for someone like Fang Kangsheng.*
After some thought, Fang Yun led Fang Kangsheng to the foot of the mountain.
Fang Lin and Fang Zhou, seeing Fang Yun bringing Fang Kangsheng downhill, were startled, fearing Fang Yun was going to return him.
If that were the case, there wouldn’t be another person with a Spirit Root in the clan.
“Clan Leader, what is this about?”
Fang Yun scratched his head in frustration and said, “Clan elders, please find a teacher to come and teach Fang Kangsheng daily.
Not aiming too high, but at least make him literate.
After daily lessons, he can come up the mountain to find me.
He can return to live at the foot of the mountain at night. What do you think?”
Upon hearing this, Fang Lin and Fang Zhou breathed a sigh of relief. So, it was merely an issue of basic education.
That wasn’t a big problem.
“Rest assured, Clan Leader, we’ll call a teacher right away!”
Fang Yun nodded. After delegating this tricky matter, he felt relieved.
Teaching himself would be too much of a time waste.
So, after instructing Fang Kangsheng, Fang Yun returned to the mountain.
Continuing to await the maturity of the spirit rice and the vines entering their growth phase.
A month later, the spirit rice matured, and the vines also entered their growth phase.

However, Fang Yun was not eager to accelerate the vines but first proceeded to harvest the spirit rice.
“Clan Leader, let me help you!” Fang Kangsheng stood beside the spirit field, eagerly offering.
Over the past month, because of his struggles with literacy, he had been quite disheartened. Now upon seeing the familiar farm work, he immediately became enthusiastic.
Fang Yun glanced at him, smiled, and shook his head, “Without mana, you won’t be able to harvest this. Just assist from the sidelines!”
Fang Kangsheng, hearing Fang Yun, insisted, “Clan Leader, let me help. I really can do it!”
Seeing this, Fang Yun found it somewhat amusing, so he handed his fine iron sickle to him without a word.
Fang Kangsheng took the sickle and cheerfully walked into the spirit field.
He bent down to cut the spirit rice.
Only, with all his effort, the spirit rice remained unharmed.
Seeing this, Fang Kangsheng was momentarily stunned, then swung a few more times, yet the spirit rice showed no damage.
Fang Kangsheng, unwilling to accept it, tried for a while longer. Finally, he could only stand bewildered, looking at the spirit rice in front and then at Fang Yun on the side.
Embarrassed, he said, “Clan Leader, this rice is different from the rice grown at home?”
“Of course it’s different. Alright, come out; I’ll do the harvesting. You can do the transporting, let’s finish quickly!”
After instructing Fang Kangsheng, Fang Yun used mana and began harvesting the spirit rice.
In less than two hours, Fang Yun completed the harvest of the spirit rice.
Watching Fang Kangsheng busy in the spirit field, Fang Yun paid him no mind.
Although the spirit rice was quite heavy, Fang Kangsheng could manage it. Not letting him do anything would be a further blow to him.
