Chapter 18: Er Ya, Celestial Spirit Root
In the afternoon, people gradually returned.
"Come, come, check your Spirit Root."
Lu Xuanji called to the villagers, placing a black stone at the village entrance: "Come, come, test your Spirit Root. If you have one, your family will be exempt from grain tax, and you will receive ten stones of grain as a subsidy every year."
He kept calling out, almost like a salesman.
A curious child approached directly, touching the stone.
Lu Xuanji called for the village chief to maintain order, lining up for testing.
The children went one after another, but most had no Spirit Root.
"Can I?"
At this moment, an adult man spoke.
Lu Xuanji looked on silently, thinking how this uncle, at over thirty years old, still wanted to join the fun.
