Chapter 116: Eight-legged Red Mites
Liu Wanzhen was originally a gentle character, but now she is in a hurry like this, thinking that the Silver Star Fruit Tree is not lightly ill, coming down from Xinyi Ridge, and crossing the Ningliu River by ferry, Fu Shiyi has learned the basic situation from Liu Wanzhen's words.
The Silver Star fruit tree was planted in the backyard of Liu Wanzhen's Yun Yage.
"Eleven, you see, the row of Silver Star fruit trees on the left was the first to show red spots, at first I thought it was just some inconsequential insect bites, I also specially cut off the leaves, but within a few days, the leaves of the Silver Star trees in this courtyard all grew red spots without exception. ”
"Look at these trees, not only are the leaves yellow, but even the trunks of the fruit trees are dry. ”
Liu Wanzhen pointed to a vacant dirt pit on the left:
"I was afraid that it was infected with some kind of infectious disease, so I had the withered fruit trees dug up, and I dug up one of them, and I happened to receive your summons. You couldn't have come at a better time. ”
The Silver Star Fruit Tree is a wood-based spirit plant.
The greener the color of the leaves, the better the quality.
Now there are a lot of red spots on the leaves, which must be some kind of insect pest. Fu Shiyi squatted down and carefully inspected a few Silver Star Fruit Trees with red spots on their leaves.
"Eleven, can you see what kind of insect pest disease is committed? In order to cultivate these Silver Star fruit trees, in the past few months, your thirteenth uncle and I have used the "Irrigation Spirit" to irrigate the fruit trees every day according to what you said, and it has not fallen for a day, how can this good person become sick?" Liu Wanzhen thought that her hard work was going to be put into practice, and she was so distressed that she couldn't breathe.
"Aunt Wanzhen, I have been guarding Lingtian for eight years, and this is the first time I have encountered such a case. Fu Shiyi hadn't discovered the origin of the disease yet, so he appeased Liu Wanzhen and said, "I'll take a look." ”
Fu Shiyi said, chose a leaf that was sick and about to wither, and infiltrated his divine sense into it little by little, the situation inside the leaf was like a cave hollowed out by someone, and only a thin leaf wall was left inside.
Fu Shiyi frowned.
I chose several similar leaves.
Still nothing.
At this time, due to the consumption of divine consciousness, a thin layer of fine sweat had begun to ooze from her forehead, but Fu Shiyi did not intend to stop there, thought about it, and chose a relatively intact leaf with only one or two red spots.
When she was about to give up, she was surprised to find out.
There is some kind of unknown small bug in the leaves of the silver star fruit, and there are quite a few of them.
The red spots are apparently caused by the insects eating away the leaves.
These bugs are transparent triangular in shape, and their small size is almost impossible to spot. If it weren't for Fu Shiyi's divine sense being strong enough, and because he had been refining alchemy in the past year, ordinary people would really not be able to find it.
"Eleven, but have you found the source of the disease?" Liu Wanzhen saw Fu Shiyi's expression, and hope ignited in her heart.
"Well, I found it. Fu Shiyi briefly said what he had discovered, and at the end of the conversation, he said: "But this worm, this is the first time I have seen it, I have to check the relevant classics to find a way to save it." ”
Liu Wanzhen wanted to ask again, but thinking of Fu Shiyi's arrival and the fact that she hadn't eaten dinner yet, she smiled: "It's good to find the source of the disease, this matter can't be solved for a while, I have already asked people to prepare the meal, Eleven, Sanniang, you go wash and wash, let's have dinner first." ”
Fu Shiyi thought for a moment, then nodded.
After all, she wasn't hungry, and so was Koaoki.
The two of them came out of Yun Ya Pavilion and were on their way to Yun Xuan Pavilion.
Sanniang saw that Fu Shiyi's face turned pale, and said distressedly: "Eleven, you don't care about yourself too much, it's just a few Silver Star Fruit Trees, if you die, you die, why do you have to work so hard, if your divine sense is overconsumed, and you make a good one, wouldn't it be because of a small loss, then Liu Wanzhen is really, knowing that you have been on the road for a day, and I won't let you rest and rest first, and I will drag you to Yun Yage as soon as we meet, how can I be an elder at all." ”
Fu Shiyi knew that Sanniang was good for herself, and reassured: "Aunt Wanzhen is also in a hurry for a while, if the fruit trees in that yard are irrigated with aura every day, according to her current mana, I am afraid that it is reluctant, it took so much effort, and now it has become like this, who is it, I am anxious." ”
The two went into the courtyard.
Fu Shiyi crossed his legs and knees, ready to recover the energy consumed, and explained to Sanniang, who was boiling milk powder for Xiao Aoki: "And the maximum use of divine consciousness also has a certain effect on the condensation of divine consciousness, I have something in my heart." ”
After Sanniang fed Aoki, Fu Shiyi also recovered.
Fu Yun, who was waiting outside, knocked on the door and said, "Eleventh aunt, Yun Yage has sent someone over there, saying that the meal is ready, let you go and have dinner." ”
Due to the problem of the Silver Star fruit tree was not solved.
At this windward feast, Fu Shiyi ate absent-mindedly, and couldn't help but flip through the information about the spirit plant in his mind. It's a pity that no relevant records were found in the "Qingxi Records", "Anu Records", "Zhongnan Records of Spirit Insects" and "Zhongnan Records of Spirit Grass".
After dinner, everyone was drinking tea in the hall and chatting about the current situation.
Fu Shiyi suddenly stood up from his seat excitedly.
"But I found a way. Liu Wanzhen, who had been paying close attention to Fu Shiyi, saw this with a smile on her face.
"Well, if I'm not mistaken, it should be a pest called the red mite that caused the disease of the Silver Star fruit tree. This is Fu Shiyi's inspiration, found from the book "On the Self-cultivation of a Spirit Planter". It clearly records the relevant information of red mites:
"The head and abdomen of the red mite are usually a single piece, indistinctly segmented, with protruding mouthparts at the front of the body and four pairs of feet on the abdomen. Parasitic on the leaves, flowers and fruits of the elixir spirit plant, sucking the essence of the spirit plant for a living, small spots appear on the affected leaves, and the leaves will turn yellow after that, and the whole plant will dry up in severe cases. ”
The group didn't care if it was night, and hurriedly carried the lantern to the backyard.
In the evening.
Red mites begin to become active.
Fu Shiyi was shocked to find that even if there was only one red-spotted leaf, there were more than a dozen red mite insects inside, and it was the time for them to eat, and half of the nutrients in a leaf were devoured by them in the blink of an eye.
After eating, the red mites begin to make peace on the spot.
Tomorrow, it will lay a dense mass of eggs, and within three days, the nutrients in the leaf, which originally had only one red spot, will be sucked out.
Fu Shiyi's mind moved, and the "Golden Needle Decision" was running in his body, and then a wisp of golden qi appeared on his fingers, and after attaching his divine consciousness to it, with a flick of his fingers, the golden mangs flashed out and disappeared into the leaves of the Silver Star Fruit Tree.
Through the divine consciousness attached to the golden aura.
Fu Shiyi saw the situation inside the leaves of the Silver Star Fruit Tree more clearly.
I saw that in the green space, a group of eight-legged red mites were opening their protruding mouthparts at the front of their bodies and constantly nibbling on the green juice around them.
