I Can See Through All Things Information

Chapter 524: Chapter 341 Enlightenment, County Crisis

Lu Qing, using a cultivator’s methods, selected the rice seeds.

The villagers had never seen such a magical scene before, and they were all wide-eyed with astonishment.

With the help of a spell, Lu Qing quickly selected a batch of the best rice seeds from all the grains.

Looking at the plump, golden seeds in the bamboo basket, Lu Qing nodded with satisfaction.

“Grandpa Zhang, I’ve made my selection. The rest, let everyone take them home.”

“Is this little bit enough for you? Do you want to pick some more?”

Grandpa Zhang was also stunned by the spell Lu Qing had just displayed, and it took him a while to come to his senses before he hurriedly said.

“It’s enough, I can’t use more for the time being,” Lu Qing smiled.

With his current cultivation, the amount of rice seeds he could enlighten was limited.

Besides, the spirit field that had been cultivated on the mountain wasn’t very large.

The selected rice seeds were already more than enough.

“That’s fine, as long as you know what you need. If it’s not enough, I’ll get everyone to bring you more.”

Grandpa Zhang nodded and didn’t try to persuade further.

“By the way, Grandpa Zhang, everyone has gone to so much trouble to help me gather these rice seeds, which must have been hard work. Here’s some silver. Please distribute it to everyone as a small token of my appreciation.”

Lu Qing took out a pouch from his bosom.

Just then, before Grandpa Zhang could respond, the other villagers started waving their hands in refusal.

“Ah Qing, what are you talking about? We’re all from the same village. It’s just a bit of rice seed, there’s no need for your silver.”

“That’s right. You’ve been treating our illnesses without ever charging us a consultation or medicine fee.”

“Exactly, and you used your spells a few days ago to protect the village. We haven’t even thanked you for that yet.”

…

The villagers weren’t foolish.

Ever since the anomaly appeared in the village last time, they could feel the changes that had taken place over the past few days.

They knew that Lu Qing must have done something for the village, and it was definitely something extremely good.

After all, in recent days, everyone clearly felt that they were sleeping better and their bodies were slowly becoming more vital and energetic.

Even some elderly people discovered that the chronic ailments from years of labor were gradually improving.

Where would they not know that all these changes were brought by Lu Qing?

In this world, having a healthy body is extremely precious.

Compared to that, providing Lu Qing with some rice seed was really insignificant, and they were reluctant to take his silver.

In fact, fearing that Lu Qing would insist on giving them the silver, they simply hoisted their loads and walked down the mountain laughing and talking.

The topic of conversation was mostly about the spell that Lu Qing had displayed a short while ago.

Watching the villagers not giving himself even a chance to distribute the silver and leaving on their own, Lu Qing…

After a few moments, he laughed and shook his head, putting the pouch away.

Well, since it was everyone’s will, he would accept it.

“I told you, they surely wouldn’t want to take your money,” Grandpa Zhang said, “You, you’re just too polite sometimes, which could easily make you seem distant from everyone.”

“You’re right, Grandpa Zhang,” Lu Qing humbly accepted the reprimand.

“Ah Qing, do you only need rice seed? What about barley seed, do you need any?”

Just then, a voice rang out from the side. It was Old Man Lin who had finally found an opportunity to ask.

“Barley seed…” Lu Qing thought for a moment, “Does Grandpa Lin’s family have good barley seed?”

“Of course, I might not dare to claim much else, but for barley seed, I can guarantee you won’t find better than ours, not just in our village, but in the nearby ones too!”

Old Man Lin boasted with pride.

Grandpa Zhang, although somewhat embarrassed by Old Man Lin’s boasting, still nodded and said:

“That’s true. Speaking of planting barley, indeed Grandpa Lin’s is the best in the nearby villages.”

Hearing even Grandpa Zhang say so, Lu Qing didn’t hesitate.

He nodded, “Since Grandpa Lin’s family has such good barley seed, if possible, please set some aside for me.”

After all, when the weather cooled, he could try to cultivate some Spiritual Barley.

“Alright then, just wait, I’ll go and get you some barley seed!”

Upon hearing this, Old Man Lin was overjoyed and immediately scampered down the mountain with the agility of youth.

“Er, Grandpa Lin, take it easy. I’m not in a rush.”

Lu Qing hurriedly shouted, afraid the old man might fall.

“Let him be,” Grandpa Zhang said amusedly, “That old fellow had leg troubles before and could hardly get out of bed. Since you healed him completely, now he can’t wait to walk ten laps around the village every day.”

Lu Qing…

The old man’s energy was surprisingly more robust than he had expected.

Old Man Lin quickly returned with a bag of barley seed. Lu Qing opened it and saw that the barley grains within were indeed plump—one of the finest he had seen.

“Didn’t I tell you? There’s hardly a few in the ten-mile radius with barley seed better than mine!”

Old Man Lin said triumphantly.

“Truly good barley seed, Grandpa Lin. I’ll buy all of it.”

Lu Qing felt the vitality within the barley seeds and found it to be even stronger than the rice seeds he had selected.

Immediately, he decided to keep all of it.

“What are you talking about, buy? I’m giving these to you! Those guys just now didn’t take money, so how can I, the old man, be worse than them?”

Old Man Lin glared and put up a front like giving him money would be an insult.

Lu Qing paused, no longer mentioning paying for the seeds.

He knew somewhat of Old Man Lin’s reclusive and stubborn personality, which usually left him at odds with many villagers.
