Chapter 42: Planting Elixirs

After building the house, Gu Bei took Ao Xing back to Thorn City twice, the first time bringing all the food, living utensils, weapons and other things.

The second trip was to transplant the elixir planted in the courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion to the mysterious forest, which was a very important job, so Gu Bei brought Li Qingling with him.

Li Qingling took a small medicine hoe made of jade, dug up the elixir one by one, and brought a large ball of mud at the roots, and then packed it in a clay pot and put it into her own storage bracelet.

"Although the vitality of the elixir is tenacious, if the roots are damaged too much, it will be difficult to recover, so try to dig the roots completely, bring more mud as much as possible, and reduce bumps on the road, so that after transplanting, the recovery will be faster."

Li Qingling put the last elixir into the storage bracelet, put the small medicine hoe in it, washed the mud on his hands, and said, "Let's go." ”

Gu Bei looked at the storage bracelet in Li Qingling's hand and was very envious.

"If only I had one of these storage artifacts."

Li Qingling said in surprise: "His Royal Highness the prince actually doesn't have a storage spirit weapon?" ”

Gu Bei said helplessly: "Maybe I was too wasteful before, and I didn't care about cultivation at all, so when I was thrown into this broken place, I had nothing, and I was really poor and white." ”

Li Qingling looked at Gu Bei and said, "But His Royal Highness the Prince is now a fourth-order, and at this age, the fourth-order cultivation is not low. ”

Gu Bei is only nineteen years old this year, and his fourth-order cultivation is indeed not low.

Gu Bei smiled helplessly: "Can I say that when I was in the national capital, I was patronizing eating, drinking, and having fun, and I was not interested in cultivation at all?" ”

Li Qingling nodded and said, "In a bustling big city, there are indeed many temptations, and compared to hard cultivation, pleasure is obviously more comfortable. ”

"However, His Royal Highness the Prince can get lost in just a few years, and cultivate to the fourth order, his talent is also very high, and he may not be worse than other princes in the future."

Gu Bei smiled and said, "I hope so." ”

"It's almost packed, let's go, go to the mysterious forest."

Gu Bei took Li Qingling out of the city, and then rode Ao Xing to the mysterious forest.

In a short time, they had come to the woods of the Mystic Forest.

Gu Bei jumped off Ao Xing's back, and Li Qingling walked out of the rattan basket and looked at the forest curiously.

A very sturdy, rugged wooden house, built not far from the creek, surrounded by weeds and vines.

There was a piece of ground on the left side of the hut that had been turned over, and there was a large pile of dragon dung in the corner, which had a strange smell after fermentation.

A group of soldiers are working hard to continue clearing the nearby weeds and vines, as well as cutting down bushes and branches around the hut.

Ye Wei carried a monster beast the size of a buffalo that had just been hunted, and walked step by step from a distance, with a lot of blood stains on his body, and the whole person exuded a fierce aura.

Li Qingling sighed: "It's really a primitive and wild land. ”

Gu Beidao: "Let's take a rest in the room first." ”

Li Qingling shook his head and said, "I'm not tired, the sooner those elixirs are planted in the land, the better, let's plant the elixir first." ”

Li Qingling is a very serious and responsible person, which Gu Bei appreciates.

"Okay, then let's go grow the elixir, but the smell is a bit big over there."

"It's okay, it's just fertilizer, for alchemists, getting used to all kinds of smells is the basic skill."

Gu Bei and Li Qingling walked to the land that had been turned over, and the grass and stones in this field had been picked up by the soldiers, and the soil was also very broken.

"There are a lot of bugs here, so you can't just plant them."

Li Qingling's hand flashed, and a bowl-sized ceramic gourd bottle appeared, she pulled out the stopper on the gourd bottle, shook it gently, and the powder inside fell out and sprinkled on the ground one after another.

Li Qingling walked through the entire field, making sure that the powder was sprinkled everywhere.

Soon, Gu Bei saw a magical scene appear.

I saw all kinds of insects in the ground burrowing out one after another, fleeing frantically, as if they had encountered some natural enemy.

"What kind of powder is this, it's amazing." Gu Bei looked at the bottle curiously.

"This is my own insect repellent powder, most of the bugs are scared, and it is very useful in the wild."

Gu Beidao: "Is this kind of insect repellent powder refined?" Our soldiers are going to live in the mysterious forest for a long time, there are too many poisonous insects and ants in it, and it will be much safer if we can give them some insect repellent powder with them. ”

"No problem, I still have several bottles here, give them two for yourself."

"I thank Miss Li for them."

Li Qingling took out two large gourd bottles of insect repellent powder on the spot, and Gu Bei handed it to the soldier captain Lu Liang and asked him to share it with the soldiers.

Lu Liang thanked Li Qingling again, they lived here for a few days, and they knew how important this kind of insect repellent powder was.

In the ground, the storage bracelet in Li Qingling's hand flashed, and an elixir in a clay pot appeared.

She first dug a pit in the ground, then carefully poured the elixir out of the clay pot, put it into the ground with the attached soil, straightened the elixir, and covered it with fresh soil.

"I'll help too." Gu Bei took a hoe.

"Has His Royal Highness also farmed?" Li Qingling looked at Gu Bei curiously, a person with a noble status like a prince would not usually do this kind of work.

Gu Bei said with a smile: "Miss Li, don't underestimate me, these elixirs were originally dug up by me and planted with my own hands." ”

"Then there's no problem."

Li Qingling took out all the elixirs in the storage bracelet and planted them with Gu Bei, and the speed at which two people worked was indeed much faster than one person.

After planting all the elixirs in neat rows, they continued to ridge and cover the soil, and dug drainage ditches at the edges to prevent the elixirs from flooding when it rained heavily.

"It's finally done!"

Li Qingling was holding a jade medicine hoe, his hands were full of mud, and his face was still dripping with sweat, and the hair on his temples was also wet.

"Yes, it's done, thank you Miss Li for your help, let's go over there and take a rest."

"Okay."

The two of them went to the creek to wash their hands, and then walked to the sturdy and large wooden house.

There were already some wooden tables and chairs brought from Thorn City, as well as pots and pans.

Ye Wei had already slaughtered the demon beast, and there was a big iron pot on the stove in the center of the wooden house, which was boiling the demon beast meat.

"You've come back just in time, the meat is almost cooked, I'll serve it to you."

Ye Wei took a big bowl, scooped two large bowls of demon beast broth from the pot, brought it to the table, and then filled another bowl for himself.

Ye Wei looked at the two of them and said, "I learned the method of boiling soup from the cook, and I don't know if it's delicious or not." ”

Gu Bei picked up the bowl and took a sip of the soup, feeling that it tasted good, so he gave Ye Wei a thumbs up.

"It's delicious."

Li Qingling also tasted it and said, "The taste is indeed very fresh and sweet." ”

Ye Wei laughed, it was a very happy thing that the food she made was recognized.
