"Hmm...... Judging from the footprints, it is a beast, not big or small, similar to a hound......"

Fang Yuan squatted on the ground, observing the incomparably clear paw prints left in the land, and carefully analyzed: "It's not deep in the soil, it shouldn't be a large beast, a wild wolf?" Fox? Or a weasel with a badger? ”

"What a clever brute, he ruined all my arrangements......"

Growing up in the mountains since he was a child, Fang Yuan's skill in catching beasts has nothing to say, and he can often beat some pheasants and hares as a meal.

And the traps that were laid out were even wild wolves and mountain boars.

But at this time, they were all destroyed, and they were so arrogant that they simply smelled of provocation.

"Master once said that in the deep mountains and Daze, the real dragon and snake, even if it is an ordinary animal, as long as it lives long enough, or by chance, it will gradually open up its spiritual wisdom, could it be that this is the way it came this time?"

This 'thief's method really gave Fang Yuan a feeling full of 'wisdom', as if he was not facing a beast, but a big living person, which made his face heavy.

"Hmm...... It's not a big loss......"

He looked around, suddenly jumped up, and ran to the tea garden in a hurry: "It's not good...... My Spirit Plant!! ”

Since thieves are not mortal beasts, ordinary things may not be able to attract them, and the only possibility is probably the Conscience Tea Tree and those red jade rice seeds!

After thinking about this clearly, Fang Yuan suddenly felt like his ass was on fire, and he couldn't sit still anymore.

A moment later, a roar of rage echoed through the valley: "Damn it...... Don't let me catch you......"

Fang Yuan stood in front of the Questioning Heart Tea Tree, looking very depressed.

In front of him, the original verdant tea tree, at this time, several branches had disappeared, and traces of gnawing appeared at the fracture.

The entire tea tree looked very sluggish, but fortunately, the root system was not damaged, otherwise this only mutated spirit plant would have completely left Fang Yuan.

"What is this?"

After taking a closer look, Fang Yuan found more things around the Asking Heart Tea Tree.

He touched the wound of the tea branch with his right hand, and a layer of fine and transparent crystal particles fell on his fingers, not only around the fracture, but also at the bottom of the tea tree.

"This is definitely not what I put down, could it be that the thief brought it?"

Fang Yuan placed this translucent particle under the tip of his nose, and immediately a fragrant smell came, mixed with a fishy smell.

"Fertilizer?!"

He looked at the languishing Asksin Tea Tree and made a guess, and at the same time he couldn't laugh or cry.

This Lingzhi thief actually regarded the Conscience Tea Tree as his own in a grand manner, and knew how to take care of it after eating and drinking, and it seemed that he regarded this place as a long-term meal ticket.

"But it's definitely not here either, otherwise it would have been running over in a hurry when it saw me appear......"

Fang Yuan shook his head and walked quickly to the edge of the red jade rice field.

I saw that the red jade rice seedlings in the field were intact, and even grew a little taller, but the surrounding vegetation had withered and yellowed, apparently dead.

"I can't even look down on the seedlings of red jade rice, isn't this guy's vision quite high......"

Seeing that the entire botanical garden was intact, and the other party seemed to be bent on only harming the Conscience Tea Tree, Fang Yuan was speechless: "Make another trap immediately, I will stay here every day from now on to see which beast it is!" ”

At this point, when his anger had subsided, he found it quite amusement, and he was a little eager to meet the guy who stole his tea tree.

……

After counting the losses, the right thing to do is to keep doing.

Fang Yuan first cooked the realgar powder, mixed it with other ingredients in the valley according to a certain proportion, and then put it in the cellar for three days, and then harvested a large amount of 'fire liquid'.

This formula is also passed down by the Asking Heart Practitioners, and it has a good fattening effect on many fire plants.

And even though the red jade rice was a spiritual plant, under Fang Yuan's continuous watering three times a day, it also grew quite strong, and the nutrition kept up, so there was no need to plunder the surrounding land, which made Fang Yuan very relieved.

It's just that the mysterious thief hasn't reappeared, but Fang Yuan, who stays up late every day, feels a little unbearable.

Late at night.

The moonlight is like water.

Fang Yuan set up the trap as usual and hid to the side to observe silently.

In the tea forest, everything is quiet, only the sound of insects is heard from afar, echoing in the valley.

"Don't you dare to come when you see someone?"

After guarding it for half the night, Fang Yuan's eyes were hazy and a little disappointed: "Keeping it for another night, if there is still no harvest, then transplant the Conscience Tea Tree...... It's those crystals, it's a pity......"

Through observation in the past few days, Fang Yuan had more and more concluded his inference, those crystals were indeed very beneficial to the spirit plant.

Not only is the condition of the Wenxin tea tree getting better and better, and the branches have healed, but even he specially collected a little and scattered a few red jade rice seedlings, where the rice seedlings generally grew much better than their peers.

This mysterious fertilizer that was useful to the spirit plant immediately aroused Fang Yuan's interest, and he even thought that if he could find the location of those fertilizers this time, maybe he would be guilty of his crimes, and he would be able to teach that beast a lesson.

"Yawn ......"

In the second half of the night, Fang Yuan's upper eyelids were extremely heavy, as if they were about to fall at any time.

"Forget it...... It doesn't look like it's coming tonight, and I'm going to get up tomorrow to loosen the soil in the red jade rice fields...... Hey? ”

Just as Fang Yuan was about to get up, the corner of his eye caught a white shadow under the moonlight.

"It's coming!"

Fang Yuan suddenly came to his senses, his whole body tensed, his blood surged, and his sleepiness was swept away.

The white shadow ran extremely fast, and suddenly came to the outside of the plantation, and saw Fang Yuan's rearranged beast trap, disdain appeared in the clever eyes, and he easily bypassed, sometimes simply pinching the branch with his claws, and directly flicked it, causing the trap to be launched, but he found nothing.

"Damn! What a big, clever sable! ”

Fang Yuan couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.

That's right.

What appeared in his eyes was a huge white mink, with big eyes, a slender beard, surprisingly flexible claws, ears that moved from time to time, as if listening to the surrounding movements, and a white fur that shimmered in the moonlight.

An ordinary mink is about the size of a cat, but what appears here at this time is a meter long, and it is like a small leopard.

"Good boy! Such a big sable......"

Watching the white sable swaggering all the way into the tea garden, Fang Yuan looked at the equipment on his body, and played a little drumming: "Or...... Just let it succeed again, I'll call all the people to come back another day! ”

After all, he is not a professional hunter, although he has prepared a lot of things, but looking at this white sable that is too strange, he still has no bottom in his heart.

"Giggles!"

However, as soon as the white sable entered the tea forest, his dark and shiny eyes stared directly at Fang Yuan's hiding place, and he was suddenly discovered!

"Bold! You brute! ”

Fang Yuan couldn't help it, so he jumped out: "It's okay to scourge my tea tree once, but even come back a second time, when I'm a dead man?" ”

At the same time as he jumped out, he blew the fire fold in his hand and lit the torch.

Under the blazing flames, the sable's expression showed a hint of anthropomorphic banter, and he didn't run at all, looking at Fang Yuan.

'Damn, shouldn't wild beasts be mostly afraid of fire and of the living?' Why is this one so unreasonable! ’

Fang Yuan secretly complained in his heart.

But when he saw that the white sable completely ignored him and was about to gnaw on the tea tree of Questioning Heart with a big grin, he couldn't help it anymore: "Bold! ”

He waved a torch in one hand and a wood knife in the other, and strode forward: "Don't touch my things!" ”

"Hiss!"

In the next moment, he saw the white sable suddenly turn around, its hair stood up, and it made a hissing sound.

Sou!

The white shadow flashed, Fang Yuan only felt a strong force coming from his hand, and the whole person suddenly took several steps backwards, and as soon as his hand was released, the firewood knife and torch fell to the ground: "This beast is so fast, and his strength is so great!" ”

"Giggles!"

Seeing that Fang Yuan was so vulnerable, the white mink's eyes rolled, his paws held his belly, and he laughed out loud with an extremely anthropomorphic belly.

It was also a psychic thing, and it waved its little paw at Fang Yuan, and then pointed at the Wenxin Tea Tree, as if to say: 'This spiritual plant will be Uncle Ben's in the future!' ’

"Damn...... Uncle can bear it, but aunt can't bear it! ”

Being ridiculed by the head beast, Rao is Fang Yuan couldn't stand it a little, and he turned over and got up: "Look at the hidden weapon!" ”

With a wave of his hand, several small paper bags flew out.

Fluffy!

A few puffs of smoke exploded from mid-air, with a violently pungent smell.

Immediately, Fang Yuan's face was firm, and he turned around and ran without hesitation!

That's right, since the battle was lost, it is natural that you should take the opportunity to turn in, and find trouble with this sable in the future, anyway, the gentleman will take revenge, ten years is not too late!

"Hiss ......"

But in the smoke, a sable scream was suddenly heard, causing Fang Yuan to stop.

He turned his head and saw the sable as he walked around the clouds of smoke, as if he was extremely frightened.

"Huh?"

Fang Yuan's face immediately flashed with joy.

In fact, these packs of smoke bombs were just preparations for his escape, and the bread in them was all ordinary things.

"If it's useful, can this beast come in? It doesn't seem to be pepper either...... That's ...... Realgar! Ha ha...... You wait for me! ”

Fang Yuan's eyes lit up, and he ran back to Qiangu with a smoke, and it didn't take long for him to come over with a large amount of powder: "It turns out that you are afraid of realgar?" Wahahahaha...... Look at me, I'll smash! ”

Fluffy!

As his right hand was raised, a large amount of realgar powder formed a smoke that enveloped the area.

Although the white sable was about to pounce and hissed in its mouth, it seemed to be really afraid of the realgar and did not dare to come in.

When the fog cleared, it ran away without a trace.
