Chapter Eighty-Five: Spiritual Grass Discerns Heavens Will

  ?

  Mo Qingchen was pulled by Mo Danyan through the Moon Gate, which was just a small backyard. Other book friends were watching normally.

  He just glanced at the empty backyard and Mo Qingchen's face immediately showed a hint of surprise: "Grandfather, what's this?"

  Mo Danyan smiled but did not speak.

  Mo Qingchen knew that Grandfather was selling a fake again, and didn't rush, carefully examining the garden with one glance, hesitantly saying: "Grandfather, isn't this place actually set up with an Array of Gathering Spirits?"

  Her understanding of formations was limited to jade slips and books, with no opportunity to study actual objects, simply because formations, like elixirs, were expensive.

  "It's not wrong to say that it's a Spirit Gathering Array, but do you know, young lady, that the purpose of this array is not all the same? The most common one is to lay it down when cultivators are cultivating, which can increase their cultivation speed. And then there's another kind... the one in front of you right now." Mo Danyan said, stroking his snowy white beard.

  Mo Qingchen could feel that Grandfather's mood was exceptionally good today. He stepped into the formation and, after a brief moment of calmness, suddenly said: "Grandfather, the spiritual energy in this formation seems to be disorderly and scattered..."

  Mo Danyan nodded: "Not bad, it's indeed this property, this spiritual gathering array is especially suitable for the growth of herbs."

  Mo Qingchen nodded obediently, but suddenly his eyes lit up: "Grandfather, you can mobilize your spiritual energy?"

  Even the simplest formation requires spiritual energy to set up, and just now being attracted by the gathering spirit array in front of him, he didn't react. Book fans also like to read:

  Seeing Xiao Sun's surprised look, Mo Danyan said: "After resting for more than a year, I can finally mobilize a small amount of spiritual power. Unfortunately, whether it's fighting or alchemy, I'm not up to the task."

  "Grandfather, don't worry, your injuries are getting better and better. Now our income from selling spiritual wine is enough to cover our daily expenses and buy the elixirs needed for my cultivation." Mo Qingchen said.

  Mo Qingchen said that it was enough to cultivate, and naturally comforted Mo Dajian's heart. But compared to the expenses incurred in the Mo family for a year, it was indeed much more. Intentionally not thinking about that past, Mo Qingchen was actually extremely satisfied with his current life.

  His own injuries... a flash of dark color in Mo Dae's eyes. But on his face, he smiled and said: "Yes, Grandpa really didn't expect that the young lady would be so good at earning spirit stones. This Spirit Gathering Array was originally used by Grandpa to plant herbs in his early years. Later, when he became more affluent, he changed to a better one, which had been laid out in the medicine garden, but unfortunately, they were all gone."

  Mo Qingchen knew that in Mo Manor, Mo Danyan had a special medicine garden, and she knew it was a restricted area. She had never been there before.

  "Grandfather, are you planning on growing herbs here?" Mo Qingchen changed the subject.

  Mo Danyan nodded and said, "Yes, now that Grandfather can mobilize a small amount of spiritual energy, I've thought about it, and it's just right to calm down and tidy up the medicine garden. We can plant some short-cycle spiritual herbs and grasses, and when the time comes, we can exchange them for spiritual stones. Here, take this."

  Mo Da Xian handed over a formation plate, and Mo Qingchen was taken aback. This is an Array of Gathering Spirit, and it's specifically used for cultivation.

  Mo Danyan smiled: "When I first came to Tianyao City, Grandfather wanted to buy it for you, but at that time, our livelihood was not stable, and we didn't dare to use the spirit stones on us. Now that our wine stall's income is stable, this thing is naturally indispensable."

  Mo Qingchen had never used the Spirit Gathering Array before. This kind of array required periodic replacement of spirit stones, and in the Mo household, as a Qi Refining stage novice cultivator, she naturally didn't have such conditions. Other book friends can continue reading normally.

  Back in the house, Mo Qingchen laid out the Spirit Gathering Array and began to cultivate. With the help of the array, his cultivation speed was indeed much faster than usual, even without taking the Spirit Gathering Pill.

  Days passed slowly in cultivation and brewing wine for sale, Mo Qingchen's cultivation grew steadily and stably.

  That day, Mo Dainian had to buy some seeds and instructed Mo Qingchen to take care of the medicine garden before hastily leaving.

  Mo Qingchen used a specially-made spiritual hoe to remove the withered dead grass, staring at the full garden of spiritual grass and shaking his head, it was really too difficult to serve.

  On that day, Mo Daxian tidied up the medicine garden, but he didn't plant spiritual medicines. Instead, he chose a kind of spiritual grass called Bi Mei Cao.

  This Bixi grass is delicate and requires a lot of care, often still withering in large patches. However, it's precisely the favorite food of some rare herbivorous spiritual beasts. As cultivators value their time above all else, these spiritual beasts that love to eat Bixi grass are particularly precious. In order not to disappoint their beloved pets, wealthy cultivators naturally spend spirit stones to buy them, which is why this Bixi grass isn't cheap.

  Mo Danyan currently has the least shortage of time, and the growth cycle of Bimao grass is only three months. After thinking about it, planting Bimao grass is the most suitable.

  Sweating profusely, Mo Qingchen sat down beside the medicine garden and casually placed the Ling Hoe aside, taking a deep breath.

  Grandpa should be back by now? Mo Qingchen's hand was supporting his cheek, lost in thought, while the other hand unconsciously pulled out his usual wine gourd and took a sip.

  This gourd is not the one with endless fine wine, but a special one to distinguish from the ordinary ones sold daily, used to hold that fine wine. As for the magical gourd, it has shrunk to the size of a peanut and hangs around her neck.

  At first, Mo Qingchen still fantasized that after drinking the beautiful wine in the gourd for a long time, her body might undergo some kind of magical change. However, several years passed and her own Four Spirits Root's waste material properties didn't change one bit, nor did she discover any magical abilities. Gradually, she also extinguished that extravagant fantasy.

  "Little sister, little sister, are you home?" Mo Qingchen's mouth was filled with wine, and he suddenly heard the door being knocked loudly.

  "Little girl, are you home? Open the door quickly, something has happened to your grandfather!" The voice outside grew louder and more urgent, it was Xia Xia's voice!

  Mo Qingchen's heart skipped a beat, the gourd in his hand fell to the ground and rolled around several times, but he couldn't pick it up, jumped up and rushed towards the gate.

  Brush opened the door and saw Xia's anxious face.

  "What's wrong with my grandfather?" Mo Qingchen asked anxiously.

  It had been over a year since they met, but this was the first time Xiaxia came to his doorstep. He calmed down and said: "Just now I passed by Fangshi Street and saw your grandfather arguing with someone!"

  Mo Qingchen's heart tightened. Because Grandfather had injuries on his body, he was usually careful and cautious every day. Today, he actually got into a dispute with someone. The matter must not be simple.

  Thinking of his grandfather being unable to fight back, Mo Qingchen's cold sweat flowed down instantly, and he cast the Wind Control Spell to rush away frantically.

  "Hey, hey! Wait for me!" Little Xia of the second layer of Qi refining shouted helplessly from behind.

  Mo Qingchen suddenly appeared, returning in a flash of smoke. Her rapid speed whipped up a whirlwind that blew the clothes of the two people into the air. She grabbed Xia Xia without saying a word and dragged him forward as they ran.

  "Where is it?" They arrived at the entrance of the town. Mo Qingchu asked in a tone as cold as ice.

  "Over there, near the stall selling spiritual medicine." Xiaxia pointed in a direction.

  Inside Tianyao City, it's said that monks aren't allowed to fight. But small frictions can't be avoided, and the monks in charge of maintaining order all turn a blind eye to this, especially in the marketplaces where stalls are set up. It happens every day, and there's no way to manage it. In the end, strength is what speaks loudest everywhere.

  From a distance, Mo Qingchen saw Grandfather standing off against several people. Except for a few onlookers, the passing monks didn't even give them a glance, clearly accustomed to such scenes.

  There were three people in total, one of whom was a young man in his early twenties, dressed all in white, with a frivolous look in his eyes that made him seem flighty. The other two were dressed as servants.

  The man in white took a step back, but showed no restraint, pointing at Mo Danyan and saying: "You old man, you really don't know how to behave. You just let this young master admit his mistake, yet you still dare to show your power! Do you, do you know who I am?"

  "Gongzi——" Someone beside him pulled on the sleeve of the white-robed man.

  The man in white clothes glared fiercely at him.

  He bowed his head and whispered: "Young master, today Yao didn't come with us... a good man doesn't take advantage of the situation..."

  Another servant followed closely and said: "Yes, young master, if you don't go back now, you will be discovered..."

  A man in white clothes with a cultivation base of eight layers, and the two servants beside him also had four or five layers. Mo Danyan listened to the conversation between the three people without making a sound, but his face was bright red, obviously extremely angry.

  The difference between the 8th and 10th layers of Qi refinement may not seem like much, but after all, there is a small boundary in between. The white-clothed man hesitated for a moment, then raised his chin at Mo Daxian and said: "Old fellow, you wait, next time I meet you, I won't let you off!"

  After saying that, the three of them turned their heads and left, passing by Mo Qingchen's face, but didn't give him another glance.

  "Grandpa, are you alright?" Mo Qingchen ran up to Mo Danyan and asked.

  Jian is Mo Qingchen. Mo Danyan was stunned for a moment, then said, "Nothing, let's talk about it when we get back, others can continue reading normally."

  Mo Qing's heart skipped a beat, she knew her grandfather well, if he said so, then the problem must be not small. She remained calm on the surface and responded with a "hmm". As she spoke, she naturally stretched out her hand to hold Mo Dajian's arm and walked outside.

  Outsiders couldn't see anything out of the ordinary, but Mo Qingchun felt her grandfather's entire body weight bearing down on her.

  "Thanks a lot today, Xia Ge. I won't trouble you to see me off." Mo Qingchen said tactfully, noticing that Xiao Xia was still following beside him.

  Xia Xia touched her nose and said: "Don't worry too much, I know that person."

  The two ancestors and grandchildren looked at him together, Xia continued: "He is a medium-sized family in the Yao Guang school, his own qualifications are not very good, but there is a high ancestor in the clan who has completed the Dan period. Therefore, he is not at peace in the Yao Guang school. However, the Yao Guang school has restrictions on the disciples of the Lianqi period going out. He can't come here once a month. In the future, if you see him, just quietly avoid him."

  "Xiao Xia Ge, you really know a lot." Mo Qingchen said casually.

  Xiaohua was taken aback and said: "Uh, quite a few people know about this."

  Mo Qing didn't want to worry about Grandfather's injuries and wasn't in the mood for more conversation, so he hastily bid farewell to Xiao Xia and the two returned home.

  As soon as he entered the courtyard, Mo Danyan suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and supported himself to swallow the Rejuvenating Pill. "Girl, Grandfather is going to treat his injuries, it may take some time, don't panic, just act as usual."

  Mo Qingchen looked at the tightly closed door of his grandfather's room, lost his appetite for food, and couldn't calm down to practice. He thought of the Biyucao in the medicine garden that needed careful care, and couldn't bear his grandfather's efforts being wasted, so he entered the medicine garden.

  The garden is very quiet, with emerald grass carved like jade, clear and transparent, but emitting a refreshing fragrance.

  Looking at the wine gourd lying crookedly on one side, Mo Qingchen bent down to pick it up, but his hand suddenly stopped, staring fixedly at the blue jade grass in front of him.
