v1 Chapter 929: The source of lima beans, Tawantinsuyu!

Latest website: One day hangover and faint, one day uneasy. It wasn't until three days after the night drink that Priest Mecate received the official order to take full responsibility for the task of recruiting the Black Snake.

And the personal guard in charge of delivering the order also brought a message from His Majesty to let him forget the complaints he heard that night, and just pretend nothing happened.

Only then did Priest Mecate heaved a long sigh of relief, feeling as if he had run and slipped around from the edge of the endless abyss, and came back alive again.

"The Lord God blesses you! Accompanying His Majesty...is really like accompanying a jaguar in the jungle!..." Priest Mecate shook his head secretly, carrying a royal order from His Majesty, and went to look for the old militiaman Chivaco.

He searched around the city, and then went outside the city again, and finally saw the old militiamen squatting in a bean field in a daze in the nearest village.

"Mekart, you are here at the right time! Show me the divinity of these three kinds of beans... oh! Which kind of fertile field is better!" The old militiaman wore a straw hat and held a long grass stalk in his mouth.

After returning from Cuba, His Majesty also gave him an errand, which was to study the cultivation of different crops, water and fertilizer, growth, breeding, pest damage... and so on.

Your Majesty calls this

"Agriculture", the position given to him is the head of the Agricultural Department of Shenwei University, which is said to be equivalent to a second-level priest of divine revelation.

In addition, His Majesty also gave him a textbook on agronomy and a book on breeding by God.

"Scriptures", let him find literate priests and read them to him from time to time. Of these two books, the agricultural book is the better one.

Seed selection, germination, water and fertilizer, climate, he has been planting the land for so many years, and he can roughly understand it, but he has not learned it systematically.

As for breeding

"Divine revelation scriptures" are said to point directly to the origin of all things, but they all sound very mysterious, just like the mysterious inheritance of priests.

The old militiaman asked someone to read it again, and he was dizzy when he heard it, what was in it

"Light and dark divinity are entangled in pairs",

"The divinity of light is higher than that of darkness, that is, it is dominant",

"Light and dark divinities are freely combined and independently distributed, and each determines the appearance",

"Twenty-three laws are gathered in the body, and 27,000 pairs of divinities are condensed into one person"... These are mindless and very bluffing things.

While drinking at night a few days ago, he mustered up the courage to ask His Majesty again, and His Majesty actually asked him to plant beans, saying yes

"Beans are relatively simple, and can best see what divinity and laws"...

"Captain Qi, why are you here? I've been looking for you in the city for a long time, and I didn't even know you were here unless Didi told me!..." Priest Mecate wiped the sweat from his forehead, and squatted side by side beside the field ridge , leaning close to the old militia.

"It's better to stay in the field than to be in the city! In case His Majesty asks us to drink again and send us to do some terrible work..." Speaking of this, the old militiaman Chivaco shook his head, his old eyes full of It's a pity.

I thought well at first, when Cuba comes back, I won't go to sea even if I die! ...But he never expected that he would still go to the far southern continent, and he didn't know if he would come back alive... Thinking of this, he sighed again, staring at the three kinds of beans in the field, and talked about the farm work that made him relax.

"Priest Meccat, look, these three kinds of beans are the most common in the world. This thin vine, twining and climbing up, is kidney beans, green, yellow, and purple-black. Kingdom Ah, Alliance, every piece of Mirpari is planted, and the village also eats it as a staple food. This stuff is better to grow, but it has to be cooked and eaten..." Hearing this, Priest Mecate hesitated to speak.

He glanced at the attentive old militiaman Chivaco, and had no choice but to agree first.

"That's right! The Lord God blesses you! This kind of easy-growing bean is a crop bestowed by the Lord God to the world... and it is also a bean for common people!"

"Hmm... common people's beans are so easy to grow..." The old militiaman's old eyes flashed, and he stretched out his hand again, touching another kind of bean next to him.

The bean has pinnate compound leaves like the bean, butterfly-like purple and white flowers, and long, flattened pods.

At first glance, this pod looks like an obsidian knife, so it is also called

"Sword beans".

"This sword bean is very similar to a kidney bean, and likes warm and humid soil. But they grow much taller than a kidney bean! It can grow forever, and it is taller than a person! It is also better at carrying insect pests, but Ah, despite being tall, the beans produced are not too many..."

"Indeed! The Lord God blesses you! This kind of tall sword bean is also a crop given to the world by the Lord God... and it is also a bean for warriors!..."

"Samurai's beans!...like a knife..." The old militiaman shook his head slightly, but he didn't know what he thought of. He continued to reach out, carefully touching the last kind of bean.

This kind of bean is very similar to the other two kinds of beans, the vines are very thin, and the leaves are pinnate, and there is no difference.

But the pods it bears have a very smooth surface and are slippery to the touch. The old militiaman peeled off a bean pod, and the beans inside were flat and round, white or light red, with a delicate feeling.

And he took one, put it in his mouth, chewed it, and it was obvious that the beany smell was much less.

"Blessed by the Lord God! These are delicious fine beans, and they are also sacred priest beans! The taste is very delicate, tender, and has no earthy smell..." This time, Priest Mecate spoke first.

He knew the beans and had eaten them for many years. And before he became an apprentice priest, when he was helping his family farm in the village, after harvesting such high-quality beans, they would be used as tribute and handed over to the samurai team who collected food!

"Yeah! The priest's beans are very delicious...but the yield is not much, they are not resistant to pests, and birds like to eat them..." Chivako, an old militiaman, nodded and handed another one to Priest Mecate.

Priest Mecate chewed it in his mouth, and was about to say something, but he listened to the old militiaman's voice.

"Mecart, do you know where this bean comes from?"

"Ah? This kind of beans... Uh, isn't it one of the crops that the Lord God bestowed on the world?" Hearing this, Priest Mecate showed some doubts on his face.

But ~lightnovelpub.net~ he soon understood. With all that said, it’s true that many crops, like potatoes and sweet potatoes, are grown from…

"Captain Qi, you mean, this kind of beans also come from the Southern Continent?!"

"Yes! Your Majesty said so..." The old militiaman scratched his hair and sighed with regret.

"Your Majesty said, this kind of fine beans, priest beans... are actually called lima beans. And in the not-too-distant future, when we go south to explore, at least the end we have to reach...is the legendary place where the main **** bestowed beans! ..."

"We will take the priest's fine beans and go all the way south, asking the tribes along the way...to a seaside land where a great river flows...'Lima'! And there, we will definitely meet a prophesied sun-worshipper A powerful kingdom... yes, it is a kingdom, not a tribe. It will be very, very large, controlling the inland plateau, and the seashore along the coast, bigger than the current alliance and kingdom combined!..."

"And the name of this kingdom...according to His Majesty...is called 'The Kingdom of the Son of the Sun', 'The Alliance of the Four Places'...what, oh!...'He's very young'...Tawantingsuyu!..."
