Chapter 438: Dragon Bud (Part II)
Listening to Old Man Tong's narration, Ling Zikai realized that this tea called "dragon bud" still has such an extraordinary origin.
As magical as it sounds, anything can happen in nature. In terms of the growth state of the dragon bud alone, it has gone through a long process of growth, and naturally absorbed the essence of heaven and earth, making itself contain a wisp of life element qi. But for ordinary people, even if they drink dragon bud tea, in addition to feeling that it has a unique fragrance and taste, I am afraid they will not know that this tea also contains the essence of the elements of life!
This old man Tong values this dragon bud tea so much, could it be that he can also perceive the secret?
Ling Zikai asked tentatively: "Old man, even if this dragon bud tea is very rare, it is only a kind of tea. Just like the superb red robe, because it is not something that ordinary people can taste, it will become precious. ”
Old Man Tong let out a sneer from his nostrils when he heard this, and said, "Compared to this dragon bud tea, that big red robe is nothing!"
"Oh! Could it be that there is something else unknown to this dragon bud tea?"
"Let me ask you, is that ten-year-old ginseng worth the same as a hundred-year-old ginseng?"
"Do you still need to ask, naturally it can't be compared!"
If the big red robe is compared to ten years of ginseng, then this dragon bud tea is a well-deserved century-old ginseng. ”
"Old man, it's not so exaggerated!"
Old Man Tong said proudly: "In my case, it's far more than that. No matter how good the big red robe is, as you said, the biggest effect is that it can quench your thirst. But this dragon bud tea can be used as a precious medicinal herb to treat diseases, and although its medicinal effect is not as good as ginseng that brings the dead back to life, it is not much worse! Moreover, it is even rarer than that ginseng, even if you want it, there is nowhere to find it!"
Ling Zikai smiled secretly: Although this dragon bud tea also contains the essence of life elements, it is really a big step worse than those hundred-year-old mountain ginseng. This old man seems to love the house and Wu!
Although he thought so in his heart, he didn't refute it, but asked: "Old man, since this dragon bud tea is available but not sought, then you can get it, and you have experienced an extraordinary opportunity!"
Old man Tong said with a smile: "It's not a chance! Didn't I say it before, although this dragon bud tea can be met but not sought, but there is a stupid way to wait for the rabbit! When my grandfather was alive, he once got a dragon bud tea and wrote down the excavation place. I also knew about that place by accident, and I remembered it. Ten years ago, I remembered that it had been nearly a hundred years since my grandfather excavated the dragon bud tea, and that the dragon bud tea should also appear again, so I paid attention to it, and went to that place every ten days and a half months. The emperor lived up to his wishes, and in the summer of the third year, the dragon bud tea finally broke through the ground, and finally fulfilled the old man's wish!"
"Old man, you are really a caring person! If it were me, in the past few decades, I would have thrown this matter out of the clouds, and I have no part in it!"
Old Man Tong said with some regret: "It's a pity that the dragon bud is solitary, and all the thorn buds are taken down, and it is less than two taels of tea." I don't want to get it again in this life!, but Brother Ling is willing to throw away those dragon bud teas, it's heart-wrenching to say!"
Of course, Ling Zikai wouldn't tell the other party the truth that those dragon bud teas were not thrown away by himself, so he pretended to be annoyed and said, "I knew that this dragon bud tea was so precious, and I wouldn't have thrown it away!
Old Man Tong understood what Ling Zikai meant, and said, "Do you want to use those fruits for artificial planting?" I have the fruits, and I can give you some, but I advise you to give up that kind of thought!"
"Why?"
"Even if you can make those fruits sprout and grow, by the time it grows to the ground, it will be a hundred years later, will there be a chance for you to see it?"
What Old Man Tong said is the truth, according to common sense, plant those fruits now, and wait until it grows up, unless you can live to be one hundred and twenty or thirty years old.
But this kind of concern did not exist for Ling Zikai at all. Because he has the energy of the ancestral gods, under the catalysis of this magical energy, he can completely complete the growth process of dragon buds that need to go through a hundred years in a few hours or even dozens of minutes, and I believe that the quality of the dragon buds that grow is several times better than that that grown in the natural environment. Of course, the premise is that he is willing to consume a large amount of ancestral energy in his body, after all, his own energy is not easy to come by. But taking a step back, it is still possible to shorten the growth cycle of dragon buds to a few months or a year.
At Ling Zikai's insistence, Old Man Tong didn't shirk it anymore, and gave him more than a dozen black and shiny seeds that were like round beads.
Seeing that Old Man Tong was so generous, Ling Zikai's good impression of him increased greatly, and he knew that he invited himself to this backyard not just to taste a cup of dragon bud tea, so he said: "Old man, you invited me here, didn't you just let me taste a cup of tea?
Old Man Tong pondered for a moment and said, "I think Brother Ling is also a straightforward person, so I won't hide some words!
Seeing that Ling Zikai did not refuse, Old Man Tong continued: "In that box before, the elder brother threw Hong Lei out with a wave of his hand, whether it is in terms of body style and internal strength, he is far from being comparable to him, even if the old man is in his heyday, I am afraid he is not your opponent." Brother Ling is young, and he has such cultivation, presumably from a famous family. It's a pity that the old man is clumsy, and he can't see your boxing skills and exercises, so I want to take the liberty of asking, I don't know where you came from?"
Ling Zikai was stunned for a moment, and then understood that the other party must have regarded himself as a person in the martial arts, and couldn't help laughing: "Old man, you must have misunderstood, I haven't learned any boxing and martial arts, let alone a teacher!"
A trace of regret crossed Old Man Tong's face, obviously thinking that Ling Zikai was lying, and he was unwilling to reveal his identity, so he said sincerely again: "I know that each sect in the martial arts has its own rules, and it is understandable that Brother Ling does not want to reveal his origins. Originally, the old man should not be so abrupt, but the old man has encountered a bottleneck since he was fifty years old, and he has not been able to break through in the past twenty or thirty years. Now it seems that the old man is too wishful thinking!"
Ling Zikai was really a little speechless when he heard this.
There is the fact of defeating Hong Lei there, how to deny that he can't do martial arts, and the other party won't believe it. You can't tell the secret of the ancestral gods.
After thinking about it, Ling Zikai simply neither admitted nor denied it, and made a big move, changed the topic, and asked, "I don't know what the bottleneck the old man said?"
