Chapter 624: Chapter 623: Spirit Rice Sprouts, Little Brother Hunao_1
 

“Hunao might not be like Baoya, only cunning without wisdom.”

Lin Qingluo clearly sensed the little creature’s mutterings and teased with a playful smile, “I have a feeling that it will grow into the invincible King of Beasts.”

“Hmph, with that dull-witted look, it won’t even be one in a hundred years.”

Little Kingfisher shrugged its little nose with pride and continued to peck at the Spirit Peaches.

“Now that Hunao has gained consciousness, just like Baoya, wouldn’t it be nice to have them as companions?”

Lin Qingluo smiled cunningly, coaxing the little creature.

“With them around, you’ll have two more little brothers to order around, no need to do things yourself, isn’t that great?”

“Ah, fine, I can’t spit it out even if I wanted to, let’s keep it this way.”

Little Kingfisher’s eyes lit up when it heard the word “little brother,” suddenly feeling the pride of being the big brother, raising its little head with incomparable arrogance.

“Hehe.”

Lin Qingluo couldn’t help but laugh, her eyebrows arching with amusement.

Beiming troops retreated, and the princes fought for power, leaving no room for distractions. The borderlands enjoyed rare peace.

Fourth Master Lin gathered his subordinates and announced that they would reclaim wasteland for farming, unite the military and civilians, and promote Spirit Rice cultivation within the border to improve the lives of the northern border people.

Lin Qingluo planted the seeds of Spirit Rice in the vegetable field, which showed strong vitality. In just five days, they sprouted up new shoots after being watered with half of the Spiritual Spring water.

The seeds watered with well water sprouted a few days later.

Ten days later, the vegetable field was full of new shoots under the straw blankets, displaying a vibrant scene.

Upon seeing the new shoots, Fourth Master Lin was delighted and even more determined to reclaim wasteland for farming.

He specifically invited several experienced old farmers to come to his courtyard and inspect the vegetable field.

The old farmers were amazed, their eyes nearly popping out when they saw the thriving seedlings.

After the extreme shock came uncontrollable joy.

Lin Qingluo took the opportunity to assure them that she would provide seeds for the military and civilians to cultivate.

The old farmers were overjoyed, some even shedding tears on the spot.

The matter of land reclamation for farming was thus settled, and no one had any objections.

Next, they would follow the old farmers’ experience in cultivation, select suitable locations, invest a considerable amount of resources, and embark on large-scale land reclamation.

“Chirp chirp.”

A clear eagle call came from the sky. The giant eagle flew at a high speed, and in just a blink of an eye, it arrived above the camp and circled twice, its sharp eyes accurately finding the location of its little master.

“Is the giant eagle back?”

Lin Qingluo was watering the plants by the vegetable field when she looked up at the sound of the eagle’s call, her eyebrows curving into a smile.

“Chirp chirp.”

On hearing the eagle’s call, Little Kingfisher flew back from the top of the snowy mountain and landed on the roof, gracefully grooming its feathers.

Seeing Little Kingfisher, the giant eagle’s eyes flickered a few times, then it slowly descended from the sky.

Upon reaching the courtyard, it folded its wings and landed smoothly.

“Did big brother send a message?”

Seeing the bamboo tube tied to the eagle’s right claw, Lin Qingluo’s heart lifted, and she walked over to pull out the plug and retrieve two letters from the tube.

Opening one of the letters, she read it quickly, her face falling and she let out a bitter smile.

“What happened? Got scolded?”

Little Kingfisher tilted its head curiously, looking at her.

“Not scolded, exactly.”

Lin Qingluo sighed, “There’s a long complaint about me taking risks. It seems I really upset big brother.”

“What about the other letter?”

Little Kingfisher didn’t pay much attention, looking curiously at the other letter.

“It’s from Yixuan.”

As Lin Qingluo opened the letter and read it quickly, her mood improved slightly, and the corners of her lips rose into a charming curve.
