古董下山 (ENGLISH: Old Fogey Goes Down The Mountain)

Chapter 27 - TaiCang Sect Leisure Club

[Previously]

Pleased, WeiXi nodded and looked at the woman in the group with the most frozen expression and said: "WanRong, you're very smart. Good job."

Shu WanRong slowly turned to look at him: "........."

Thank you. Thank you for your compliment. I dug in the mud for a whole day, oh yes I'm so happy.

=========================================================

However, regardless of how much enthusiasm this veteran employee had for her TaiCang Sect, her friends were really extremely capable, completely digging up the yard into what WeiXi wanted and even more efficiently than Mike.

ShuoZong bent over and picked up a handful of soil, the loose spiritual soil mixed into the ordinary dirt. The appearance wasn't anything special yet the handful released waves of tranquility.

But it reminded him of many memories long past and he couldn't help but feel a little melancholic.

In fact, many years ago, spiritual soil wasn't such a rare treasure. At least in his opinion, it wasn't anything worth mentioning. There were large scale cultivation schools that would even open up a piece of land with spiritual soil to grow medical herbs.

But the past is the past, and things are different today. After the collapse of the Heavens, many rules of the world have changed. Spiritual soil and stone as well as countless treasures of the heavens and earth have long disappeared completely, along with every one of the formerly flourishing cultivation Sects. The cave they had once hid in beneath the great guardian mountain, because of the world's diminishing spiritual powers, lost its ability to conceal itself and has now become a famous tourist location.

Since this is the case, how did WeiXi manage to save this bit of spiritual soil?

He looked at WeiXi and saw he had already happily returned with a little basket, in which Weixi reached into and pulled out a handful of......

That which can only be found in the depths of the guardian mountain, which can take your stress away and bring you peaceful sleep......

ShuoZong stared at the pile WeiXi was treating like weeds and his messy handful. The once thriving stems in the pile had already withered from staying in the basket for too long. "......."

WeiXi called out to everyone: "Since the earth is already dug up, come come come, WanRong, while your friends are still here, let's plant the seedlings too."

Shu WanRong: "......"

This surprised the rich housewives who then asked Shu WanRong: "Hm? Is this your eldest son? Why is he calling you by your first name?"

Shu WanRong mulled in silence for a moment and said with difficulty: ".......Our family believes in equal relationships so we don't differentiate by titles, everyone just calls each other by name."

Because he commanded them so naturally, this group of ladies who had just stopped to rest were somehow now planting sprouts, and for a time, the Wei family yard was a springtime scene in a field, filled with a simple rustic flavor.

The ladies were very confused. Weren't we just drinking coffee? Why are we starting with this now?

But with the aid of the garden lights, as they watched their white fingers digging through the dirt, this concern was very quickly replaced by an even more important question. The soil at the Wei family's estate is truly quite magical. Even though they didn't know the contents of the soil, the rejuvenating effects were already more than enough to prove its extraordinary nature. They've been digging for almost an entire day now. The spiritual soil was already diluted so their skin didn't become as tender and white as Shu WanRong's, but the glowing skin similar to the repeated use of expensive masks, every pore gleaming with moisture was already more than satisfactory. They had plenty of money so what beauty treatment can't they buy? Aside from conventional cosmetic procedures, some of them would even fly to Rotorua for its prestigious volcanic mud treatments. But even that never gave them such visible effects.
