"Young man, are you tired?"
After walking for a while, the village elder didn't forget to ask Du Feng if he was tired carrying the hoe. Although Du Feng could work with the hoe now, it didn't mean that he wasn't tired carrying it while walking. Just like how ordinary people in the mortal world could dig the soil with a shovel, their shoulders would also get sore after carrying it for a long time. After all, it was a heavy object.
"It's alright, just that my shoulders are a little sore. I'll change sides."
At first, Du Feng carried it on his right shoulder. After walking for a while, it was indeed a little sore, so he switched to his left shoulder. After walking for a short while, he arrived at the field. This time, the village elder didn't care about him. Once he got to the field, he began to dig his own hole.
He didn't know if it was because Du Feng had eaten too much recently, but the village needed to plant a lot of crops, especially vegetables. So this time, the village elder was especially fast. He dug a hole in the ground with the hoe. Moreover, all of the pits were of the standard size and depth. Du Feng was dumbfounded as he watched from behind.
Tsk, tsk, tsk … This old man is really fierce. So he was deliberately digging slowly to avoid hurting me.
Du Feng couldn't learn from others and dig a hole in the ground with the hoe. He swung the hoe and smashed it hard on the ground. After a while, he finally dug a hole. He held the wooden handle firmly and adjusted the size of the hole. Finally, he dug a hole of the standard size and didn't need the help of the village elder.
"Oh, not bad, young man."
Seeing that Du Feng dug a hole of the standard size, the village elder nodded in satisfaction and said another sentence.
"This hoe, I'll give it to you in the future. Remember to work in the fields every day."
Du Feng guessed that it might be because he dug a hole of the standard size that the village elder gave him the little hoe. Although he lent it to him before, he had no intention of giving it to him. Today, he just dug a hole of the standard size and immediately gave it to him.
"Thank you, I'll do my best."
Du Feng happily accepted the small hoe and worked hard. Of course he was happy, because this little hoe was of unusual quality.
One had to know that the Dragon Riding Sword was a high-grade spiritual treasure, but it couldn't even penetrate a millimeter into the farmland. Although the small hoe was only a farming tool, it could dig up a lot of soil. If his guess was right, this hoe was probably a Connate Spiritual Treasure.
That was a connate spirit treasure! That was something that even the five emperors of the Heavenly Court yearned for. The reason why the Celestial Thearch spent so much effort to nurture the Blue Jade Child was to refine it into a Connate numinous treasure. This was also the reason why he accepted the Koi Boy as his disciple. He didn't know how Koi Boy was doing. Frankly speaking, Du Feng didn't want to care about him.
He didn't know if it was because Cultivation couldn't enter, or if it was because he was watering himself. Today, Du Feng's performance was very good. He dug out four standard sized pits. However, he raised his head and looked at the pits dug by the village elder. One row, two rows, three rows … There were so many that he couldn't count them at all.
The farmland here was also quite interesting. A pit was dug, seeds were sprinkled, and edible vegetables were watered. The seeds could germinate on the second day, and in a few days, they could grow into edible vegetables. The growth of fruits was slower than vegetables because they still needed to bear fruit, but it wasn't much slower.
Grains were also slower than vegetables, but it didn't take too long. The only problem was that once the crops were harvested, the ground would become firm again. They had to dig more pits, otherwise, they wouldn't be able to sow the seeds.
In other words, without the village elder, the villagers wouldn't be able to sow the seeds at all. They could only eat the stored food and would starve to death sooner or later.
Uh … Thinking of this, Du Feng frowned slightly and was a little worried for the villagers. He was quite happy staying here recently, but he couldn't stay here forever. At present, the one with more potential in the village was Little Stone's father. Of course, if Little Stone grew up, he should also be a strong man.
However, that process was rather long. At present, they could only rely on the village elder to dig the pits in the farmland. Without him, it wouldn't be easy.
There was another question that Du Feng couldn't figure out. Was this Grandpa Village Chief the same as the one he had seen in the illusion? Because at that time, he saw an old granny calling the old grandpa home for dinner. Now that he was in the village, he had never seen the old granny in the illusion.
"Let's go back."
It was already noon. The village elder saw that Du Feng was in a daze, so he called out to him.
"Alright!"
Du Feng came back to his senses. He carried the hoe and followed the village elder back. Although the little hoe had been given to him, it couldn't be stored in the small world of the necklace for now. It wasn't because of any problems with the rules, but because the little hoe's level was too high, so it couldn't be stored in the small world for now.
He had to wait for the space in the small world of the necklace to increase again before he could store the hoe. Therefore, now, Du Feng could only carry the hoe and walk back. It was a little tiring, but he was quite happy to earn a hoe for free.
"Clap, clap, clap …"
What was going on? As soon as Du Feng walked to the village entrance, he saw the villagers lining up and applauding to welcome him. It wasn't his first time coming to this village. Did they have to make it so enthusiastic?
"Big Brother, congratulations on becoming a real man."
As he spoke, Little Shitou ran forward and put a garland on Du Feng's neck. Du Feng looked at it and smelled it. It should be rapeseed. Rape flowers were pretty good, but what was going on with becoming a real man? He only went to work in the fields. It wasn't like he just married his first wife today. What did it have to do with becoming a real man?
Although that was what he thought, Du Feng didn't say it out loud. What he said was, "Little Shitou, do your best. You will become a real man soon."
After saying that, he slapped Little Shitou's butt. It was really a pun. In the end, Little Shitou was so embarrassed that his face turned red and black. He was already very tanned. With such a sudden redness, the two colors mixed together like a round eggplant.
Uh … frankly speaking, this kind of expression didn't look good.
Of course, Little Shitou's expression didn't look good because he was too shy. However, there was one person whose expression really didn't look good. It had reached a point where there was nothing left to live for. That was the delicate middle-aged man. Everyone else was smiling and applauding Du Feng, but he looked like he was neither dead nor alive.
