Vestibule.

Mr. Bai Shui was still chatting with the five elders.

After talking about the spirit fruit, the tense atmosphere that permeated the hall was long gone, and from Mr. Bai Shui's face, it was impossible to tell that he had killed one of his disciples with his own hands not long ago.

"In my spiritual garden, there are 3,600 spiritual trees, a total of 949 kinds of spiritual fruits, and almost all the spiritual fruits in the world can be found in my garden. Mr. Bai Shui said with a smile.

The Fifth Elder said, "It must have taken a lot of effort to find so many spirit trees, right?"

Mr. Bai Shui said: "The first spirit tree is still a Xuanshen tree that I found more than 800 years ago, and the latest yin and yang tree was given to me by a friend half a year ago, and it took 800 years of work. ”

The fifth elder admired: "Sir's perseverance is really very comparable, and it is difficult to find a spirit tree, and it is even more difficult to raise a spirit tree, right?"

"Who's to say it's not?" Mr. Bai Shui sighed, "Every spirit tree in that garden is like my children, and I spend more time taking care of them than taking care of my disciples, for example, the Xuanshen tree only blooms once in a hundred years, and it only bears fruit once in two hundred years, and it takes decades for the fruit to ripen, and I still watered it with the water of the Four Seasons, otherwise it will take longer." ”

It turns out that Mr. Bai Shui is good at water system exercises, and his trick of planting spirit trees is to refine four kinds of rune water according to the characteristics of each spirit tree, spring, summer, autumn and winter, and each season corresponds to one, which is called the four seasons rune water.

In addition, the amount and time of each watering of the four seasons are particular, such as the spirit tree of yin, it must be watered in the yin, that is, the ugly mao has not been in the middle of these hours, and the spirit tree of the yang is the opposite, and there is the kind of yin and yang, such as the yin and yang tree, which must be watered in the yin and yang.

The Fifth Elder admired for a while, took a sip of tea, and said, "I don't know which kind of spiritual fruit in the Master's Garden has the greatest improvement in strength? ”

The implication is that he obviously wants to ask for the spiritual fruit.

Mr. Bai Shui pondered for a moment and said: "If you talk about improving your strength, it should be the Dragon Elephant Fruit, but this kind of fruit has extremely domineering spiritual power, it is not so easy to refine, and it takes five hundred years to mature. ”

The dragon elephant fruit is a very rare spirit fruit, and when it is ripe, it will be surrounded by the phantom of the dragon elephant, and the spiritual power is amazing.

The Fifth Elder glanced at him and said lightly, "The Dragon Elephant Fruit is indeed very good, but as far as I know, this doesn't seem to be the best Spirit Fruit in your garden, right?"

Mr. Bai Shui's face changed slightly, and he said with a smile: "What does the elder mean by this?

"Panlong Fruit!" the Fifth Elder spat out three words and looked straight at Mr. Bai Shui.

Mr. Bai Shui's expression changed drastically, his mouth opened slightly, but he couldn't speak.

The Fifth Elder continued: "I heard that the Panlong Fruit takes a thousand years to ripen, and the growth is extremely slow, Sir said that the Dragon Elephant Fruit is the best, but compared to the Panlong Fruit, I'm afraid it is still far behind, right?"

Mr. Bai Shui said curtly, "Where did the elder learn about this?"

The five elders smiled and said nothing.

Mr. Bai Shui had no choice but to say: "There is indeed a dragon tree in my spiritual garden, but you also said that the dragon fruit ripens once in a thousand years, although I have carefully cultivated it for hundreds of years, it has just borne fruit, and it is still far from the day it is ripe. ”

He regarded these spiritual fruits as more important than the lives of his disciples, and he was originally reluctant to give them away, but who knew that the five elders told the secret of the dragon fruit, and in desperation, he could only reluctantly use the dragon elephant fruit to satisfy the latter's appetite.

The fifth elder was unmoved, and said meaningfully: "I see that Mr.'s memory is not very good, just now he said that there is no Panlong Fruit, and now he remembers it again, I'm afraid that even whether the Panlong Fruit is ripe or not, I can't remember it clearly, it's better to be like this, anyway, it's rare for me to visit, why don't I ask Mr. to take me to the Spiritual Garden to visit, how about it?"

"This ......," Mr. White Water looked embarrassed.

"Sir won't even give this little face, will he?" the Fifth Elder's voice turned cold.

Mr. Bai Shui nodded helplessly and said, "It is an honor for the elder to visit the Spirit Garden, and after drinking this cup of tea, let's go over." ”

The fifth elder smiled: "Then it's bothering!"

......

"Sir, sir?" Ziyun called out repeatedly.

Only then did Li Yi withdraw his gaze from the dazzling array of spirit fruits and said, "What's wrong?"

"Didn't Sir say that you were going to send some spirit fruits to that Fifth Elder?" Ziyun said, "I wonder which one you plan to give?"

Li Yi had a limited understanding of the spirit fruits, and he couldn't name all the spirit fruits in front of him, so naturally he had no way to answer, so he had to pretend to ponder and say, "You close the door of the spirit garden first, and wait for me to think about it." ”

As he spoke, he walked into the depths, looking around to see if he could find a spirit fruit of understanding.

The three of Ziyun closed the door and followed, seeing that Li Yi looked like he couldn't make up his mind, they all understood and said secretly: "Mr. has always been stingy, and he is reluctant to give any kind of spirit fruit, so he is so embarrassed." ”

So he followed step by step, and did not disturb the thoughts of "sir" without making a sound.

Li Yi looked around, and finally saw a spirit tree he knew, it was the yin and yang tree he had seen in the Netherworld Secret Realm, but this yin and yang tree was less than his knee height, it seemed that it had just been planted, and there were not even a few leaves, let alone blossoming and fruiting.

"The longer I stay here, the greater the risk of being discovered. Li Yi was secretly anxious, "Just cut through the mess quickly, and don't do anything!"

He stopped and said, "That's good, pick all the ripe spirit fruits!"

"Take them all off?" the three of Ziyun were taken aback.

If this is the case, nearly one-third of the spirit fruits in the Spirit Garden will have to be picked, adding up to almost two thousand, so many spirit fruits will be sent out, it is not too similar to Mr. Bai Shui's style.

A few days ago, Mr. went to a good friend's banquet, but he only gave a ginseng fruit, and it was in the worst condition.

Li Yi observed his words and said, "Do you think I have to give it to the fifth elder? Wrong, the fifth elder is an insatiable man, if he only gives him one or two, he will definitely not be satisfied, but the lion opened his mouth, so the teacher will take him to visit the spiritual garden and tell him that the spiritual fruit is not yet ripe, then he will have nothing to say." ”

When the three of Ziyun heard this, they suddenly realized.

Although the spirit fruit picked will lose some spiritual power, it is much better than giving it away for nothing.

"It's like a gentleman's style!"

The three of them didn't think much about it, and hurriedly divided into three directions, picking spirit fruits each.

They are responsible for guarding the spirit garden on weekdays, taking care of the spirit tree, and the picking technique is very skillful, the speed is fast, they know how to pick the spirit tree so as not to damage the spirit tree, and at the same time, they control the weight of the strength so as not to damage the spirit fruit.

While the three of them were busy picking, Li Yi secretly took out a Xuanjin mirror from the storage bag and buried it under the soil.

Then continue the tour as if nothing had happened.

It didn't take long for the three of Ziyun to come over, present three delicate storage bags, and report the number in turn, which were nine hundred and sixty-three, five hundred and eight, and four hundred and thirty-three, adding up to a total of one thousand and four spirit fruits.

Li Yi was secretly excited.

Originally, he planned to leave just like that, but after some visiting, he found that there were still many spiritual fruits full of spiritual power, some of them were white and red, and some of them were golden and restrained, and they were obviously close to maturity.

In particular, there is a kind of spiritual fruit, the appearance of which is surrounded by a faint dragon elephant phantom, dozens of zhang away, and the fierce spiritual power is rushing to the face, and there is a feeling of standing out from the crowd.

Such a treasure made Li Yi really reluctant to let go.

"Hmm. Li Yi pondered for a moment and said, "Pick all the spirit fruits that are about to ripen, that fifth chief is honestly too greedy, maybe when he sees that he is about to ripen, he will also pick them in a swarm, but he can't take advantage of the loophole!"

"Pick it if it's not ripe yet?" Ziyun felt that something was not right, and did not do it immediately.

Qingshan and Zhiming also looked at each other, full of doubts.

Mr. Bai Shui loves fruit like a child, and he will never pick the spirit fruit that is not yet ripe, even if it is ripe, he is often reluctant to pick it, although the situation is special this time, but it is also an exception to this part.

Li Yi knew that the three of them were suspicious, but the words had already come out, and there was no room for turnaround, so he said coldly: "Do you know what kind of person the fifth elder is? He is not only insatiable, but also ruthless, just now in the front hall, he forced me to kill Tianyun, just because Tianyun gave Li Nianyi a gift, but did not give it to him!"

"What?" Ziyun's faces changed drastically.

Li Yi continued to threaten: "When the time comes, if the fifth elder takes a fancy to these spirit fruits that are about to ripen, do you three dare to say nothing to him? Anyway, I definitely can't say it, so either I will pick it off now and avoid future troubles, or the three of you will have to say, what will happen after saying it, I think you can also guess it!"

The three of them were terrified when they heard it.

Since Mr. can let Tianyun be a scapegoat, he can naturally let them be a shield, and when the time comes, force them to say something that offends the five elders, if the five elders are angry, Mr. will definitely not protect them.

"Since the gentleman commanded us, then we will go and pick it. Ziyun and the three of them were intimidated by Li Yi, and they couldn't care about suspicion anymore, so they quickly turned around and left.

Li Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said in his heart: "It's so dangerous, I almost can't make it up!"

Still going deeper.

Suddenly, he felt a strong spiritual power coming from front of him, and he seemed to faintly hear the sound of a dragon moaning in his ears, which shook his eardrums and caused even the air to become stagnant, like an invisible mountain pressing into the air.

"What is that?" Li Yi was surprised, and hurriedly stepped forward to check, and when he saw it, his eyes couldn't help but widen and he felt incredulous.

"That's ......"
