The originally inconspicuous clay pot actually had such wonderful uses. This meant that the ancient seed was definitely not simple.

Xu Zongyi had a premonition in his heart that this four-sided jar was the foundation for him to turn the tables around. He had to properly study it when he had time.

The four-sided jar wasn't too big, but even with a few buckets of water, it was difficult to fill it up. He shook it a bit, because there was water moving inside, so he didn't think too much about it.

Wood could make fire, and any kind of wood could produce any kind of fire. Often, good wood could produce fire that greatly increased the yield of rice grains.

If the wood was not good, some fire would seep into the grain, which was often harmful.

These pieces of wood could easily burn, and the fire was extremely powerful. This was a piece of wood from the Scripture Hall. No matter what, it was better than the ones in the day courtyard. At the very least, these things did not have to trouble him.

The difference in daily necessities could greatly improve a person's physique.

Xu Zongyi cooked seriously and realized that the fire had ignited the energy within the water. Soon enough, it permeated into the Purple Comet Body Rice. He hurriedly controlled the fire and adjusted the fire.

In the day courtyard, cooking a big pot of rice was a part of his daily life. To him, cooking a big pot of rice was the basics of the day courtyard, otherwise, they would not have the qualifications to mess around in the other four courtyards. With regards to the control of the heat, every person in the day courtyard had a solid foundation, otherwise, if these direct blood descendants of the fourth courtyard were to boil the rice, they would be severely punished.

It was just that the things he usually ate were too terrible. The people he served were two extremes, unless he was lucky. If he met someone like Xu Xindie, he would reward them with a portion of the ingredients.

Xu Zongyi was pleasantly surprised. With good water and good wood, this was his first time using good water and good wood to cook rice.

Because he was young, he basically did not go to the other four courtyards to serve others. However, practice made perfect, there was no problem to cook the Amethyst Tier Mushroom.

The fragrant Purple Level Body Strengthening Rice, each of them was sparkling and full, with a rich inner quality.

There were no dishes, only rice.

In the eyes of the farmers, the five grains were for feeding, the five fruits were for helping, the five livestock were for benefiting, and the five dishes were for filling.

Humans mainly ate the five grains. As for the rest, they would only help replenish their energy and would only eat when necessary.

The same principle applied to eating and eating.

With such conditions at hand, Xu Zongyi was already very satisfied.

The pot of rice was quickly finished, and he was sweating profusely.

However, he found that there was a thin layer of black substance on the pores of his body.

”Could it be impurities?” Xu Zongyi could feel that his strength had increased slightly as his body relaxed: ”Indeed worthy of being a Purple Level Body Strengthening Rice, it is something even the Scarlet Grade Body Strengthening Rice that you have eaten before. That kind of body strengthening rice has too many impurities compared to the other body strengthening rice, not to mention helping yourself expel the impurities from your body.”

He quickly took off his clothes and used the water in the jar to rinse himself from beginning to end. He only felt that his skin was nourished by the water and seemed to be more solid and tenacious than usual.

”So comfortable. This is my first time taking a bath and I feel this way. Is it because of this jar?” Xu Zongyi was suspicious in his heart, but he didn't think too much about it. Because there was a lot of work to be done every day, he had just arrived at the Scripture Hall and didn't want to slack off.

He returned to the bamboo house. On the bed, there were three sets of clothes, all belonging to the Scripture Hall. The crescent moon was white, and the robes were plain and simple.

His entire demeanor had changed, becoming completely different and scholarly. He walked to the side of the pond and admired his heroic figure, and seeing that the words' sin 'were still glaring on his face, he immediately returned to the Scripture Hall. He had to work extremely hard right now, because only then would he be able to change his fate.

While he was wiping the bookshelves, he was also contemplating the arrangement of this place. The feeling that the Scripture Hall gave him was getting more and more unfathomable.

It wasn't until nightfall that Xu Changping finally instructed Xu Zongyi, ”Go light up the oil lamp, and then we'll explain the rules of the Scripture Hall to you.”

”Yes, Senior Martial Brother!” Xu Zongyi took out a fire piston and lit a few bronze oil lamps hanging on the side of the bookshelves, releasing an aura that would cause people to pay close attention to him. There weren't many oil lamps, but every single one of them was extremely bright, which was the main reason why many farmers of the Xu family liked to browse the hall. The aura of these bronze oil lamps would definitely help them with their reading and comprehension, and would also reduce the consumption of food storage points.

It was only when he had already lit an oil lamp in a certain area that Xu Changping finally appeared in front of him, saying, ”Follow me!”

Xu Changping's demeanor was refined, his face handsome. He wore white clothes, and his temperament was ethereal, graceful, and like a fairy from the nine heavens, deeply favored by the young ladies of the village's Xu clan. With every step he took, he carried himself with him.

Xu Zongyi followed behind him with a wistful look in his eyes, hoping that he would be like Xu Changping in the future.

He was extremely excited. Was he going to start teaching me cultivation?

The two of them went to the backyard.

Xu Changping sat down on a rock and said gently, ”Junior Brother, I think I'll tell you about the situation of the Scripture Hall.”

”Yes.” Xu Zongyi did not dare to sit down as he stood at the side.

”If you wish to read a book, there is a seed here. Find a place and plant it. Based on its growth, the hall master will decide what kind of book she wants you to read.” Xu Changping said seriously.

”Where is the hall master?” Xu Zongyi was extremely curious.

”In the future, you will see that if you perform well, he will take you in as his disciple. Right now, you are only my junior in name. You need to work hard and find me for any problems.” Xu Changping's tone was very gentle, giving off the feeling of the spring breeze.

”Thank you, Senior Brother.” Xu Zongyi looked at the pool water and asked: ”What kind of water is this? I feel like it's very powerful. ”

”This is the Tianqing Primordial Water, owned by the hall master. If you were to steal it, you have to bear the consequences.” Xu Changping's expression was solemn as he warned him seriously.

It was obvious that only the people within the hall could get close to the rear courtyard of the Scripture Hall, so there were almost no defenses set up.

”What?! This is the Heaven-Cleansing Primordial Water?” Xu Zongyi's eyes lit up. He had once seen a ranking list, and it was one that was given to him by the village's Xu family ancestors.

In this world, there were many eyes of water.

As far as the Xu family was concerned, if a person could obtain a good water source eye, it meant that he would definitely have a huge advantage in the field of cultivation in the future.

The Eye of Pure Heaven Water was ranked eleventh on the water source ranking.

Many people wanted to ask for this water to be used to grow some precious plants.
