Before dawn the next day, there were serfs busy salvaging manure in the dung cellars of each tun. The manure was carried by the serfs in the direction of the dairy farms.

The disbanded logging team also regrouped, and under the escort of the knight team early, they came to the bush where the thorn cordyceps was. Marcus scouted the bushes with his falcon arrows on his back to make sure there were no monsters lurking around him, before turning to Galtai and nodding.

"Sir, be safe around. ”

"That's good. Galtai turned around and shouted at the serfs, "Cheer me up, get to work, take the lord's copper plate, whoever dares to work lazy, I will definitely whip him to death! Remember, thorns are not to be touched, and all other trees are cut down, and not a single one is left." ”

The serfs should be.

Then start cutting down the trees.

They didn't know why they had come here to cut down trees, but the town officials gave them an order, and they did so, and they were paid two copper plates a day.

After a while, the dung picking team arrived, and Galtai was busy directing the serfs to fertilize the thorns.

Isaiah, the treasurer, followed, and he calculated the remuneration of each serf, and when he had counted the number of workers, he recorded the data on thick paper. He stretched and chatted with Galtai, "What do you think of Lord Baron, and why do you take such care of the thorn worms?"

"I don't know, but adults always do it for a purpose. ”

"Galtai, you're getting more and more involved in Flower Town now. ”

"Why not, the development here is vibrant, and I will probably spend the rest of my life here, so it's a good thing to develop it, isn't it? I am not used to living in the barren countryside, but there are still many interesting things to find in the rich countryside. ”

"Of course, no one likes poverty. ”

"For the sake of our adults, and for our own sake, Isaiah, we have to forge ahead. Galtai glanced at his old friend, who had recently been a little tempted and wanted to follow Liszt.

"I want to ...... Yes. ”

Several officials of the town, Galtai, Blair, Carr, and Marcus, became followers of Liszt. As the only official who hasn't followed yet, Isaiah is rightfully feeling the pressure.

Galtai didn't say much, and the final decision still had to be made by Isaiah himself: "Isaiah, let's go and check the thorny bushes to see if there are any special thorns." Adults have explained that the thorn insects have been a little restless recently, perhaps because the thorn bushes have changed. ”

"Then what are you waiting for, I'll have to look carefully, in case I find a potion thorn, tsk...... By the way, haven't you studied the ingredients for the flame mushrooms in Shiitake Mushroom Tun?"

Galtai spread his hands: "How can it be so easy, all kinds of ingredients to grow flame mushrooms, all failed, if it weren't for the crooked neck Bob's mushroom shed, there are still flame mushrooms growing, maybe, we will mess up the flame mushrooms." Adults value flame mushrooms very much, and I don't even know how to report them. ”

The cultivation of the flame is in trouble.

Galtai has mobilized all the mushroom growers, assigned them flame mushroom seeds, and let them cultivate them.

It's a pity that they all ended in failure - it is said that Bob, who has a crooked neck, is completely demonic, and stays in the shed without sleep, watching the flame mushrooms grow, but he just can't figure out why his own shed can grow flame mushrooms, and after re-ingredienting, it doesn't work, and the flame mushroom seeds will always die.

"Maybe you should tell the Baron, and the Baron will have good advice. ”

"Why do you say that?"

"Don't you think that Lord Baron is very knowledgeable, he knows a lot, he has a wider vision than all of us, he can see the vast world that we can't see. ”

"Hmm, that's how you see adults?"

In fact, it was Marcus who said that this knight who wanted to be a nobleman admired the Baron very much. ”

Galtai pondered for a moment: "Maybe I should indeed report to the adults, the matter of the flame mushroom is not a project that I can be reckless in." ”

He wanted to present himself in order to win the position of consultant.

But it's clearer that if he messes up the Flame Mushroom, Liszt will most likely kill him - the importance of potions to a lord is something anyone can estimate.

......

At noon, Liszt came to the Cordyceps bushes to take a turn, inspect the progress, and ask if any unusual varieties of thorns had been found.

The officials did not gain anything, and Liszt himself cast his magic eye, and did not see any unusual thorns.

Now he has confirmed that the smoke quest cannot create reward items out of thin air, the rewards are all real in this world, as long as you are willing to dig yourself, even if you don't pass the quest, you can still get reward items.

This gives him a lot of options.

He can choose to complete the quest and let the smoke quest deliver the reward items to him, making it easy and comfortable.

You can also choose to avoid quests and get bonus items directly to "refresh" new quests.

He even thought about it - maybe the mission will fail, but he doesn't know what kind of "punishment" will there be after the mission fails, whether it is to punish the reward item for staying away from him, or if there is some other additional punishment. Or, after a mission fails, will there be a new one?

"Maybe one day you can try the consequences of the failure of the mission, but if you can complete it, you should complete it as much as possible, and don't artificially create bad consequences. ”

Shook his head.

Liszt is no longer entangled, since he can't find anything abnormal about the thorns, then he can only get the new variety of thorns when he completes the task.

Galtai walked over: "My lord, there may be something wrong with the cultivation of flame mushrooms. ”

"What's the problem?" said Liszt.

"We arranged for all the serfs who planted shiitake mushrooms to be given a share of the flame mushroom seeds, but none of them succeeded in keeping the flame mushrooms alive, and it seems that the flame mushrooms could only grow in the mushroom shed of Bob's family with a crooked neck. But we couldn't find any difference between his mushroom shed and other mushroom sheds. ”

It's been almost a month.

The flame mushroom has still not been cultivated.

Liszt felt that there must be a big problem here, and in fact he had been paying attention, but he was willing to give the serfs time to solve it - the lord would not have to bother himself every day.

I didn't expect to wait for a month.

The flame mushroom seeds that were distributed showed no signs of survival.

It stands to reason that the cultivation of mushrooms is very fast, and after the spores germinate, they can grow from the mycelium into a fruiting body in a few days, and they can be picked in less than two months. But the flame mushroom species (mycelium) cannot survive at all, and the serfs have changed all kinds of ingredients and environments, but they can't.

Without professional scientific research talents, Liszt could only let Galtai lead the way, and then go to Shiitake Mushroom Tun for on-site research.

Let's see if you can deduce some reasons based on your own knowledge.

Come to Shiitake Mushroom.

Seeing the crooked-necked Bob with bloodshot eyes and a haggard human shape, the other party knelt directly on the ground, trembling all over: "Lord Lord, Bob is a waste, and he can't let the flame mushroom cultivate alive for a month." ”

Liszt did not blame Bob.

Just asked Bob in detail about the process of cultivating flame mushrooms.

After listening, he swept his gaze over the Flame Mushroom and cast his Eye of Magic to find out the root of the problem. He looked at the few flame mushrooms that grew on the shiitake mushroom ingredients, and then at the flame mushroom species in the new ingredients he had prepared. Discover a place where there is some confusion.

Normal flame mushrooms, magic is a condensing process.

Including the flame mushroom species it produces, it is also constantly condensing magic power.

However, after inoculation, the flame mushroom seed in the new ingredient will not be able to condense the mana, and will slowly lose the mana.

"What is the reason for this?"
