Chapter 814: Peach Blossom Valley
"Enjoying the flowers, didn't you say that the peaches are ripe," Xia Feixuan interjected and asked. "Words * love * first * hair He Xilin smiled: "Didn't you say it, it's just a part of maturity." This flower viewing is estimated to be the rest of the peach forest. But even if it's a flower, it's a good thing, let's go, let's take a look, their peach forest here is not our Bixiao Forest. If you want to say awesome, it's still awesome here. ”
The big guy cleaned up and walked out together, and a bunch of people just talked and laughed outside.
Soon, I came to the back mountain, which is actually just a vague name. Everyone likes to call it that, but in fact, it may not be at the back of the sect's station.
The area here is very large, and sure enough, it is the same as He Xilin said, if you want to talk about, it's still bullish here.
No matter how good Bixiao Forest is, it's just that, but the peach forest here in Kunlun Mountain, Nima, that's not a peach forest, it's a sea of peach trees
As far as the eye can see, there is no end in sight, and the entire huge valley is full of peach trees. Countless peach blossoms are hanging on top of the peach tree, only in the front right, there is a corner of the peach grove, where the ripe peaches are hung, and most of the rest are peach groves with peach blossoms. "I'll go, so much" Liu Hu couldn't help but exclaim. "This has to be tens of thousands of peach trees" "There are not so many, it's just that the terrain in this valley is undulating, and it looks like there are a lot." We counted last year, and there were more than 1,000 acres and about 5,000 trees in total. It's hard to say more specifically. An uncle accompanying him said.
Liu Hu couldn't help but say: "Even if it's five thousand, it's amazing." I remember that in the world, such a large peach tree is estimated to produce thousands of catties of peaches. These more than 5,000 trees, wouldn't it be that you have to harvest 5 million catties of peaches a year, and you won't be able to sell them in the world, how can you eat them?"
The uncle next to him laughed: "How can there be so many, it would be good if this tree could have an average of 100 catties, only those old trees can produce a maximum of 200 catties of peaches, and many new trees only bloom and do not bear fruit." What's more, these peach trees have different growth periods, and it takes about a hundred years for old trees to mature. Even the youngest peach tree only matures once in more than 30 years. On average, it takes about 150 years to mature. Calculated down, the average harvest of a hundred years is only more than 700,000 catties. On average, it is less than 10,000 catties per year. It's just that I Kunlun sent thousands of disciples, and if it is divided equally, I am afraid that everyone will not be able to share ten catties of peaches every year. It's not much. ”
Hearing Uncle Shi say this, everyone felt that they were missing ten pounds a year, and if they met someone who could eat fruit, it was estimated that they would be killed in a few days. "But I heard that the peaches of Kunlun Mountain, although they are not as good as the treasures of Bixiao Forest, are also extremely high-grade, and this kind of yield is probably very amazing. Qin Ruo couldn't help but say.
The uncle shook his head: "It's not far worse than Bixiaolin's baby." The so-called extremely high-grade materials only refer to those trees that are more than 500 years old. Only the production of those old trees can barely be used as high-grade materials. And such old trees, the entire Kunlun Mountain, are only more than a dozen. The rest of the total, when counted, is nothing. Otherwise, just relying on this peach forest, I Kunlun Mountain would not need other places. ”
He Xilin thought about it and couldn't help but sigh: "This good thing is always so rare. It seems that God also has a heart for balance. Otherwise, there are too many high-grade materials, and I am afraid that cultivators will go against the sky. "Cultivation is to go against the sky. Uncle Shi laughed. "Let's go, the ripe peaches this time, although they are not those hundred-year-old trees, they are also more than 300 years old, which is still good. Let's go and see, pick some peaches, and then go to see the peach blossoms, and look at them while eating, wouldn't it be comfortable?"
Uncle Shi was very thoughtful, and everyone naturally followed Uncle Shi to the valley.
Ripe peaches, which do not look far, but are actually not close, are at least two miles along the winding road. This peach forest belongs to the kind of big peach trees. Qin Ruo looked at it, this peach tree was only one, and it was estimated that it would occupy more than an acre of land. However, looking at the peaches on the tree, they are only sparsely scattered under the green leaves, but it is not like the world, the peach tree can bear full of peaches, and as far as the eye can see, it is almost impossible to see that the leaves are all peaches. "So little" Chu Ling, who was already a lot older, was standing under the tree at the moment, but he pouted and said.
The uncle couldn't help but laugh, and everyone laughed too. If there are too many, according to the appearance of the world, this tree will have more than 10,000 catties of peaches
When Uncle Shi saw Chu Ling's appearance, he also liked it very much, so he took a few more steps, looked around, and found a peach tree that was obviously older than other trees, and chose a peach that was big enough for an adult to be a fist and a half and handed it to Chu Ling: "Your name is Ling'er, right, grandpa will give it to you to eat." ”
Chu Ling's eyes suddenly couldn't see it with a smile: Okay, she didn't know, she only knew that this peach was the biggest around, and it was the best, "Uncle Shi, this peach, it's okay for her to eat it like this" Chu Crazy Ge walked over and stopped Chu Ling.
The uncle smiled and said: "It's okay, the peaches here have a benefit, after you eat them, if your strength is high, you can absorb them all." But if the strength is poor, the excess will be distributed. ”
He Xilin said with a smile: "This is the most precious place of this peach tree. ”
The uncle nodded: "Yes, a lot of pills, you have to add a little peach here, just for this." After all, some of this elixir is too domineering. However, not all pills can be added, only some. "That's pretty remarkable, too. Qin Ruo said.
Uncle Shi said, all the way forward, as he walked, it was obvious that he was selectively picking the peaches on each tree, and would never pick too many peaches on the same tree.
After a while, everyone had a few more big peaches in their hands.
Seeing that it was inconvenient for everyone to take it, the uncle looked at the peach trees around him, picked off the small peach branches that needed to be pruned off, and flipped his wrist, and soon, several baskets appeared in his hands.
There is also a small one, woven into the shape of a peach, and there is an extra peach leaf on each side, which looks like two peach leaves protecting a small basket like a peach, and handed it to Chu Ling.
He Xilin couldn't help but laugh and said, "This little guy is very popular everywhere he goes." ”
The uncle smiled, continued to pick some, made a few more, put dozens of peaches into them, everyone carried them separately, and after walking a short distance, they left the forest with peaches and entered the world of peach blossoms.
When you get here, it's different from there, the peach blossoms here are almost the same as the world, you can hardly see the leaves, and occasionally you can see a hint of green in the middle of the clusters of peach blossoms. The whole world seems to have suddenly become a world of peach blossoms. "This peach blossom can cure many diseases of the world, of course, this is secondary. The main thing is that everyone is familiar with peach blossom wine, and the peach blossoms here can also be used to make peach blossom wine. In addition, this peach blossom can be dried and ground into powder for the treatment of trauma, and the efficacy is not worse than that of a general elixir. The rest, however, is nothing. Uncle Shi said.
Chu Ling had just finished nibbling a peach, Yang Baiyu hurriedly wiped his mouth, and as soon as she finished wiping it, she giggled and rushed into the peach forest.
Yang Baiyu hurriedly followed, and Chu Yangge also hurriedly followed.
In this big peach forest, if a child runs into it, it is really troublesome.
Everyone walked forward, and after walking a few steps, they saw that Chu Ling had climbed a peach tree, sitting on a fairly thick peach branch, giggling, but it looked like a peach blossom fairy.
Especially as she shook the branches, the peach blossom petals on the branches were one after another, more like a peach blossom rain.
Chu Madge was in a hurry: "Come down quickly, shake off all the flowers, this peach will be in trouble in the future." ”
The uncle hurriedly stopped Chu Yange: "It's okay, even if the little guy doesn't shake it, we have to wait for a wind to blow off most of the peach blossoms." Even, if there is no wind to come, we have to organize a flower beating. "Playing flowers" Chu looked back at his uncle in confusion. "There are too many peach blossoms, and if there are too many fruits, the tree will die of exhaustion. The same is true for fruit trees in the world, if they are not properly conditioned, there will be a phenomenon of large and small years. Uncle Shi said simply.
Qin Ruo understood that if there were too many fruits at one time, the nutrients of the peach tree would be absorbed too much by the fruit, and the growth of the peach tree itself would be delayed. "Yes, it's enough to have hundreds of flowers on every tree. Even so, the flowers left behind by this should be picked again when they form green peaches to reduce the number of hanging fruits. There is a lesson to be learned. Otherwise, thousands of years ago, the discussion would have been on this scale. However, a thousand years ago, there was a great disaster in Kunlun Mountain, the disciple who was in charge of the peach orchard at that time died in battle, and for a while, he forgot about this matter, and as a result, the peach trees were fruitful, and when they were discovered, it was too late, and many peach trees died within a few months. Even some thousand-year-old trees were particularly badly affected and almost died. "Until now, if it weren't for the original time, there would be thousands of thousand-year-old peach trees in this Peach Blossom Valley. Today, in this peach blossom valley, there are only three or five peach trees that are more than 1,000 years old. Uncle Shi obviously sighed.
That kind of loss is indeed heart-wrenching.
While talking, he watched Chu Ling and Li Xiayi jumping around in the peach blossoms, bringing up the peach blossom rain all the way, one after another, full of dreamlike beauty, and everyone's mood involuntarily became relaxed.
After walking about a mile forward, a peach tree with an area of about two acres but no leaves or flowers appeared in front of it, as if it was dead. "Uncle Shi, this tree" He Keyu saw it and suddenly asked. "This tree is more than 800 years old. Now it is dormant, and after about 30 years, it will sprout, and in another 30 years, it will be full of peach blossoms, and in another 30 years, it will almost be ready to ripen a batch of fruits. Uncle Shi looked at the tree and said with a smile. "It's amazing, it's not about the climate at all. He Keyu couldn't help but say.
Everyone couldn't help but laugh
