Chapter 12: Mountain Mulberry Spirit Flower
The two of them came to the Shrimp Peak, and the area of the Shrimp Peak was very huge, at least three times the size of the Peak of the Herb.
At the foot of the mountain is a large area of spiritual fields, planted with many spiritual rice, spiritual vegetables, and many spiritual plants that Mu Qianrou does not know, all kinds of things, dazzling to see.
Many outer disciples wearing gray short coats braved the scorching sun to rain on the spiritual plants, catch insects, and loosen the soil, which was very interesting.
Mu Qianrou grabbed Zhuang Junyu's hand: "Junyu, look at them, a trick can summon a cloud to rain, it's amazing!" And the insects in the field, how did they grow so big?"
"Look at you who haven't seen the world before! Bumpkin! Although Zhuang Junyu had a poisonous tongue, he still patiently explained every spell to her.
Mu Qianrou sighed: "I originally thought that immortal cultivators were all immortal!" Now I know that farmers do not distinguish between interfaces. ”
"And that's just the tip of the iceberg! It is said that the outside world is more exciting, and I have long wanted to go down the mountain to see it, but unfortunately I am only practicing the fourth layer of qi, and the sect stipulates that I can only go down the mountain until the sixth layer of qi training. Zhuang Junyu was a little depressed.
Zhuang Junyu has a golden and wooden double spirit root, although she began to cultivate at the age of more than seven years, but because of the mutual restraint of the double spirit root, she is still hovering in the fourth layer, of course, this is inseparable from her usual slack practice.
At this time, a male cultivator wearing a gray short coat and full of muscles walked over: "I am the deputy steward here, I don't know who the two junior sisters are looking for?" ”
Zhuang Junyu said: "We were sent by Senior Uncle Li to take care of the mountain mulberry spirit flower, and he knows about the Qin steward. ”
The steward saw that they all had a purple jade pendant unique to their own disciples hanging on their waists, and he knew in his heart: they must have committed a crime and were punished to work here. But he doesn't mind selling it well.
"Then you have to go to the mountain to find Steward Qin! This mountain mulberry spirit flower is planted on the mountain, which belongs to the Lingtian District, not together. ”
Mu Qianrou looked at the winding paths in the spiritual field, and suddenly became dizzy: "How to go up the mountain?"
"Haha!" The man smiled heartily and showed a mouthful of big white teeth: "Those who come for the first time will not be able to find their way, go!" I'll take you to the entrance. ”
"Then it's troublesome senior brother!"
Mu Qianrou, who was following behind, said to Zhuang Junyu: "By the way, Junyu, didn't you grow up in the Kunlun faction since you were a child?" Haven't you ever been to this Poison Peak?"
Zhuang Junyu was a little embarrassed and said: "I only came once, when I was seven years old, that day I beat the grandson of the peak master of the Lotus Peak in the spiritual field below, and then their peak master ordered that I was not allowed to come in." ”
Mu Qianrou: ............ Why don't you go to heaven?
The steward took the two to the entrance of Jingfeng to register, gave them the jade plates to use in and out, and left.
The two of them came to the council of Steward Qin all the way unimpeded.
Steward Qin was a middle-aged monk who looked to be in his fifties, of course, whether his real age was so unknown or not.
On the way to the two of them, Steward Qin had already received a summons from the monk surnamed Li.
"Come with me, and then the two of them followed Steward Qin left and right to a half-human-tall spirit plant.
"It's this piece of mountain mulberry spirit flower, and there are still three days to collect nectar, a total of fifty plants." As he spoke, he handed the two of them a storage bag.
"This is what you need to take care of the mountain mulberry spirit flower, you guys are familiar with it, you have been living in that house for the past few days."
The two of them looked in the direction pointed by Steward Qin, and a thatched house stood on the side.
The two nodded in thanks, and after Steward Qin left, Mu Qianrou poured out the contents of the storage bag.
One jade slip, two hoes, and two buckets. Open the jade slip, and it is full of the growth habits of the mountain mulberry spirit flower:
It is yang, likes the sun, is afraid of cold, mainly absorbs the essence of the sun and aura, and should be planted in a place where the sunrise can be illuminated, and water six times a day to prevent the branches and leaves from withering, and loosen the soil twice a day...... The seeds will bud on the fourth day of planting, bloom at sunrise on the fifth day, wither at sunset, bloom again at sunrise, and do not receive nectar until the seventh day.
Finally, there are precautions: the first point is that this mountain mulberry spirit flower will attract a spirit insect, which eats flower buds; So daily deworming is a must.
The second point is that on the fifth day, after the mountain mulberry flowers bloom, they will attract the bayi bees to come to collect nectar, so it is also necessary to drive the bayi bees away.
The two looked at each other, and Mu Qianrou took a sip: "This delicate thing!" ”
Zhuang Junyu: "I haven't served anyone since I'm so big, and now I want to serve a flower!" ”
Mu Qianrou corrected her: "It's not one, it's a piece!" ”
Zhuang Junyu squatted on the ground and rummaged through the pile of debris.
Mu Qianrou came to the flower and found that each spirit flower was hanging with a few small pink and purple buds, trembling and absorbing the aura, which looked particularly cute.
The soil on the ground was still wet, and it seemed that the disciple who had taken care of the spirit flower had only watered it.
Recently, I've been cultivating every day, and now it's not bad to be punished here to be a flower protector, so I should relax.
"Little Muzi, it's getting dark, let's clean up the accommodation first!" Zhuang Junyu shouted outside.
Mu Qianrou responded, returned to the hut, and found that Zhuang Junyu was casting a spell to move out the wooden bed, wooden table and wooden bench inside.
"What are you doing?"
Zhuang Qingyu took out a new wooden bed from the storage bag and put it on the ground before saying, "I don't want to use things that others have used!" ”
Mu Qianrou said: "I can't see that you still love to be clean!" If you have this time, you might as well use it for cultivation. After saying that, he sat down cross-legged,
"Don't, let's wait and drink the drunken dew."
"Didn't you say you went to drink when you completed your mission?"
"Changed my mind! Hurry up and help me make my bed. ”
"Oh, where are we going to eat?"
"Why do you ask so much, you'll find out later!"
By that time, the night had covered the earth, the moonlight was hazy, and the shadows of the trees were swaying. Two petite figures walked sneakily on the Herb Peak.
"I said, why should we go to eat the drunken dew of that Rausch like thieves?"
"Shhhh Be quiet! Zhuang Junyu immediately covered her mouth.
Mu Qianrou pulled Zhuang Junyu to squat down in a bush.
"You can't really be a thief, right?"
Zhuang Junyu couldn't speak.
"Tell me honestly, don't you?"
Zhuang Junyu couldn't hide it anymore, so he had to nod.
"Okay, you, what do you mean to compensate me for taking me like a mouse to steal and eat?"
"We're just going to drink a little bit and get over it, and it's not going to be a big deal."
"Didn't you say that you haven't been to the Shrimp Peak, how do you know the road."
"Coincidentally, it was Zhao Chi, the grandson of the peak master of the Herb Peak, who told me.
At that time, we hadn't fallen out, he took a fancy to a bottle of peach blossom dew I just got, and said that he would exchange it with the cicada drunken dew with me, and he was afraid that I wouldn't believe it and told him where the drunken dew was buried, so I gave him the peach blossom dew, who knew that when I was going up the mountain to get the drunken dew, this stinky boy turned his face and didn't admit it, of course I wouldn't let him go, so I beat him hard. The place where the drunken dew of the cicada is buried is under the drunken fruit tree, and there is only one in the entire Shrimp Peak, so you can't be wrong. ”
"And did you see that drunken fruit tree today?"
"Of course! How, do you dare to go?"
"Dare, but ......" Mu Qianrou looked directly at Zhuang Junyu: "We can't go sneakily, but we have to go openly, otherwise fools will know that we have a problem." ”
Zhuang Junyu thought for a while: "It seems to make sense!" ”
Of course, it makes sense, this is how Mu Qianrou mixed into a big family's house to drink wine when she was in Linzhou City.
Mu Qianrou immediately took off the jade pendant on her body and put it away, and Zhuang Junyu hurriedly took off the jade pendant when she saw this.
So the two of them swaggered through the council hall and walked in the direction of the drunken fruit tree.
