Dawn Spider

Chapter 15 Farming Spider
The Lord of Red Cone Mountain didn't care whether Jin had learned it or not, and taught him eight sets of exercise movements and eight sets of combat skills from beginning to end in one breath.

After teaching, I stood aside and watched for a while. I felt extremely bored and uncomfortable all over.

"Stop! Stop! Stop!"

"Jin, that's enough. Force evolution is a long and continuous process. Exercise should be gradual. Excessive exercise will damage the body. That's all for today."

The Red Cone Mountain Master suggested, "Shall I teach you something else?"

"..."

Jin was speechless.

This is a big spider that is willing to teach and never tires of teaching, but it seems very unreliable.

The Red Cone Mountain Master said, "I will teach you more important and complex botanical knowledge!"

Jin disdained to learn this and asked, "Isn't there a way to inherit memories?"

"Botany is a profound and complex subject, and only the most basic knowledge is recorded in the inherited memories."

The Red Cone Mountain Lord solemnly recounted, "Different plant species serve as life seeds, and the Force-based food they produce has varying attributes and quality. Some are needed, while others are unnecessary. Some are in high demand, while others are in low demand. Some plants have high yields, while others have low yields. Some plants are ubiquitous, their seeds easily collected, while others are extremely rare and difficult to cultivate..."

"In short, many things are not recorded in the memory of inheritance. They all rely on our generations of exploration and accumulation, and the teachings of our elders."

"In order to obtain higher-quality plant seeds as life seeds, we need to cultivate gardens and plant those plants that are in high demand, high-quality plants, rare plants, and high-yield plants. At the same time, we also need to select and breed new high-quality plant varieties with clear goals, diversify the types of plants and the variety of life seeds, thereby enriching and optimizing our Force food variety and helping us to better evolve and grow."

gold:"……"

After all this talk, isn’t it just agriculture?
Farmer spider?
Farmers earn little and have no future.

Jin was unhappy and didn't say anything.

The master of Red Cone Mountain only wanted to teach, not caring whether people were willing to learn or not.

"You two, stand still and don't run around. I'm going to find some teaching materials and will be back soon."

The Lord of Red Cone Mountain tapped the ground with his front paw, gave a stern warning, and disappeared into the night with a whoosh.

Went up the mountain.

Soon, he came back carrying three small spider silk bags.

"Jin! Come here."

The Red Cone Mountain Master opened the bag and asked, "Do you recognize these seeds?"

Jin took a closer look and reluctantly cooperated, "These are silk sunflower seeds."

"what about this?"

"do not know."

"These are red cone seeds."

"Uh... Bishop Red Cone Mountain's good!"

"what about this?"

"do not know."

"These are bigleaf mahogany seeds."

The Red Cone Mountain Master explained, "We're about to enter the hottest midsummer season. Generally, young plant seedlings will be killed by the high temperatures, making it a bad time to plant seeds. These three plants are relatively resistant to high temperatures."

"I'll teach you the most basic plant seedling cultivation first."

"The first step in raising seedlings is soaking the seeds and waking them up. It's very simple. Just soak the seeds in water and let them absorb enough water. This will help them germinate faster and better."

The master of Red Cone Mountain explained, picked up the spider silk bag filled with red cone tree seeds, ran to a ditch not far away, and threw it into the river.

“Soak the seeds first.”

The Red Cone Mountain Master continued his instruction, saying, "The second step in raising seedlings is to choose a plot of land with soft and fertile soil and cultivate the nursery. Be careful to avoid low-lying areas to prevent heavy rains from flooding the seedlings."

"The land over there is nice, let's go over there."

The Lord of Red Cone Mountain led Jin to a slope not far away.

More than two months have passed since the fog tide. The land burned by the fire is overgrown with weeds, and many tree stumps that were not completely burned have revived and sprouted new branches and leaves.

The Lord of Red Conifer Mountain pulled out the standing tree stumps one by one, and his claws turned into flamethrowers. With a whoosh, the weeds turned into ashes.

The teaching area was cleaned and classes began.

"The first step in cultivating a nursery is plowing the land. This job can only be done by warriors at the level of Mountain Master or above. Jin, you should learn first."

"Watch carefully, your forefoot and midfoot grip the ground and support your body..."

The master of Red Cone Mountain explained and demonstrated, slowly straightening his hind legs and middle legs, extending his scimitar-like claws, and digging them into the soil with force.

The forefeet and midfeet support the body and drag it forward.

The hind legs and middle hind feet dug into the soil at an angle and plowed through it, turning over the deep soil.

"..." Jin felt a pain in his balls watching.

This is a bug-shaped plow!
What a primitive and backward farming method!

Don't you have trade relations with the human race? Get two professional plowing machines.

Just two machines can plow up all the scorched earth in the north of the mountain in one night, right?
Cheap low-end industrial products, the force fruits produced by the divine seeds of Si Kui or Lei Linan, one can be exchanged for one.

It's the era of interstellar space, and starships are traveling through the universe at a thousand times the speed of light. Is it necessary to be so retro?
"A pure Force civilization rejects technological products?"

"Oh my god! If I turn into a spider, will I have to plow the fields like this?"

"The future is bleak~"

Jin felt melancholy.

The Red Cone Mountain Master didn't care about Jin's attitude. He plowed forward about twenty meters without haste, then turned back...

Going back and forth, they plowed a field about 20 meters long and 8 meters wide.

"Next is to prepare the ground. Use your front paws to break up the rolled-up soil and level it. Watch carefully. Do it like this..."

The owner of Hongzhui Mountain explained enthusiastically, and changed to moving back and forth vertically, waving his front paws quickly and digging in small movements.

Soon, a flat nursery made of a mixture of wood ash, humus and soil was opened up.

"To prevent water accumulation, we need to dig two drainage ditches around the area to divert water to low-lying areas. It would be best to create a pond to facilitate irrigation during droughts."

"Jin, look, the ground over there is low, the drainage ditch should be dug over there..."

The Lord of Red Cone Mountain raised his paw to point and explain, and finally noticed that Jin was in a low mood and didn't seem to be listening at all.

The high-speed friction of the chelicerae stopped,

The Red Cone Mountain Master thought for a moment, then turned and glanced at the banyan tree not far away, then at the tin-leaf vine climbing on the banyan tree, and said patiently:

"Jin, there are three points I haven't explained clearly about cultivating plants and creating gardens."

"First, high-quality plantings have a greater chance of producing divinely gifted seeds."

"Secondly, plants that are carefully cared for and grow well by Zerg warriors are more likely to produce divine seeds."

"Third, if you select and cultivate high-quality new plant varieties approved by the True God of Nature, the True God of Nature will directly bestow a divine gift and grant you a divinely gifted seed. For example, the Lei Linan divinely gifted seed of Si Kui Mountain Master was given by the True God of Nature."

"Click?"

"Chuck! Chuck! Chuck!"

Jin's eight spider eyes gleamed brightly. "Is there such a thing? If you plant the land well, you can obtain seeds bestowed by God?"

But can't the agricultural machinery of human civilization also achieve the above three points? And it can do it easily, more efficiently, and better?

Are the kids playing house?
Is this the evil taste of the true God of nature?
Or is there something else that I don't understand?

Or perhaps this is a form of spiritual practice unique to the Divine Tree Civilization? A return to simplicity and nature!

The reason doesn't matter, as long as you can get the God-given seeds, you can do anything!

Jin was full of enthusiasm and took the initiative to ask, "Master Hongzhui Mountain, is digging the canal the next step? I'll help you!"

"Jin, you're too young for hard physical work."

The Red Cone Mountain Master was very pleased with Jin's reaction and said, "However, being small also has its advantages. It is just right for delicate tasks like nesting, sowing, irrigation, and selecting seedlings."

"Come, I'll teach you how to make a nest and sow seeds first."

"This land is suitable for growing red cone trees. I'll teach you."

"Use your mental power to scan and measure distance. Dig a shallow pit half a meter in front, back, left, and right, and plant one seed..."

The main teaching explanation of Hongzhuishan.

Jin went to work in the fields.

The master of Hongzhui Mountain was giving instructions from the side.

Dig a hole at half-meter intervals, sow a seed in it, cover it with soil, and mark it.

After working until midnight, the sowing work was completed. Jin picked a pitcher plant leaf to use as a container for watering.

The owner of Red Cone Mountain personally dug drainage ditches around the nursery.

Busy till dawn.

Sikuishan was mainly there to participate in the activity of hunting evil spirits. When he passed by on the way down the mountain, he took a few glances, said nothing more, and left.

The owner of Red Cone Mountain announced that the work was over, went to sleep and rest, and continued to open the second nursery in the evening.

Jin took two raw stones, climbed up the banyan tree, and gave the tin-leaf vine the divine fruit to replenish his force.

After finishing work, I return home and meditate instead of sleeping, continuously injecting spatial energy into the space-time cube.
