Chapter 55: Collecting Spirit Grass
"It's... This..."Duan Ling looked at the medicine field in front of him, he really couldn't believe what he was seeing.
"This is the dust grass, this is the returning leaf vine, this is the immeasurable flower......." Duan Ling's eyes flashed red, and his heart was excited.
"What's wrong?" Xu Xiaoyue looked at Duan Ling, who was incoherent at the moment, and wanted to laugh inexplicably.
Duan Ling heard Xu Xiaoyue's laughter, only then did he come back to his senses from the shock, calmed down his excitement, and said secretly: "I still have too little knowledge." ”
"Xiaoyue, are these all the spirit grasses planted by your tribe?"
"Yes, this is the innate talent of our tribe, and we can grow all kinds of spirit grasses. Xu Xiaoyue explained with a smile.
"But I don't think the cultivation of the clansmen in your tribe seems to be very high?" Duan Ling took the opportunity to ask the question in his heart.
It stands to reason that with this kind of talent, he was born with abundant cultivation resources, but why did all the cultivators of the gourd tribe he saw in the cultivation realm of opening the vein? You must know that among these medicinal fields, there is a spiritual grass that refines the Immortal Pill.
"Maybe it's because our tribe has this kind of talent, which has caused the people in my tribe to cultivate extremely slowly, and there is no one who can refine the pill. Although we can grow rare spirit grasses, we can only hand them over to more powerful tribes in exchange for protection. When Xu Xiaoyue said this, a bitterness appeared in her heart.
"Then why don't you look for an alchemist outside to refine?" Duan Ling then asked.
Xu Xiaoyue sighed, a bleak smile on her face. "Duan Ling, you are not from our gourd tribe, and you don't know about our gourd tribe. Our gourd tribe used to be the majority, but after countless wars, we have become weak. There are many tribes who know of our talent and want to annex us and enslave us as slaves. In the end, in order to survive, Daddy attached the gourd tribe to the name of most of Yuehua, and planted spiritual grass for them in exchange for shelter, so that the gourd tribe can exist to this day.
As for the alchemists, there are too few of them here, and those that can only be found can only refine ordinary pills, and those that can refine high-grade pills are really scarce. As far as we know, the most powerful alchemist is Master Feng of the Yuehua tribe, and I heard that he can refine the Tuofan Pill. However, he is originally from the Yuehua tribe, how could he refine such a precious pill for us?"
Duan Ling was already a little excited when he heard Xu Xiaoyue say that alchemists were scarce here, and now that he heard that the strongest alchemist could only refine the Tuofan Pill, he was even more excited. What does this mean? I can refine the Tuofan Dan, so isn't it comparable to the Feng masters of most of Yuehua here?
"But if it goes on for a long time, I'm afraid your life will become more and more difficult. Duan Ling sighed.
If you have a lot of resources, but you can't take them for your own use, and you have to offer these resources to the majority of the head, the longer the time, the stronger the stronger, and the weaker the weaker.
"But what can we do? otherwise, it will only make the gourd tribe disappear faster. ”
"Don't talk about this, don't you want to see where you fell?" Xu Xiaoyue swept the sad expression on her face and walked to the drill field with Duan Ling.
Duan Ling, who came to the drilling field, walked to the deep hole that he smashed out and squatted down, he felt the clod of soil on the edge of the hole, and wanted to break it off, but it made him use eighty percent of his physical strength. Looking at the hard soil in his hand, Duan Ling couldn't imagine what vegetation could grow from it, nor could he imagine that someone from the gourd tribe would be able to reclaim this drill field.
"This is drilled soil, extremely hard, it is the most suitable soil for the growth of the Sky Tree, you have inadvertently done us a great favor, no one has been able to reclaim this field, which has led to the fact that we cannot plant the Sky Tree on it at all. Xu Xiaoyue looked at the soil in Duan Ling's hand, she thought that Duan Ling had suddenly picked it up from the edge of the pit, not that he had broken it off.
"Cangtianmu, your Yuehua tribe actually has a Cangtianmu?" Duan Ling was even more shocked in his heart, and his mind remembered the introduction of Cangtianmu that he had seen from Duan Ming's ancient booklet. Sky Wood, Growth: Unknown. Appearance: Unknown. Purpose: Observe and perceive, achieve the cangmu totem in the body, and can be incarnated into the cultivation of the totem.
"Xiaoyue, do you know the purpose of Cangtian Wood?" Duan Ling asked Xu Xiaoyue, he was sure that there would not be too many people who knew the purpose of something like Cangtian Wood. The gourd tribe has this Cangtian Wood, and it will definitely be able to slowly become stronger, as long as it becomes the cultivation of the totem of the Cangtian Wood, the stronger their cultivation, the faster the growth of the Cangtian Wood, and the bigger the Cangtian Wood, in turn will make their cultivation stronger. Totem monks and totems grow together, and their cultivation will not disappear from one to the other, but to grow together and feed each other, which is similar to Duan Ling's ascension path.
"I don't know about this, I only occasionally hear Daddy mention to Auntie that he got a sky tree and wanted to plant it on this drill field, but because he couldn't reclaim this drill field, it has been stranded. ”
Duan Ling was thoughtful, it seemed that Xu Youdao didn't know that his daughter had heard the news that he had Cangtianmu, otherwise Xu Xiaoyue would not easily inform Duan Ling of such an important matter, this was a secret that could bring the disaster of extermination to the tribe.
"Xiaoyue, let's go back! Don't mention the matter of Cangtianmu to others. ”
Hearing Duan Ling's words, Xu Xiaoyue nodded, although she was curious about this Cangtianmu, but seeing that Duan Ling was silent, she didn't continue to ask.
......
When the two returned home, Xu Youdao respectfully sent a young man with a delicate face and luxurious clothes and two middle-aged men away.
"Young Patriarch, rest assured, there are 10,000 of each spirit grass, and they will definitely be ready within seven days. ”
"Hmm!" the young man nodded, and turned to leave.
Duan Ling and Xu Xiaoyue happened to meet him, Duan Ling glanced at the young man, but found that the young man's eyes were full of pride. The young man's gaze immediately turned to Xu Xiaoyue, and this glance immediately made his whole person unable to move, and his eyes immediately released a look, like a hungry wolf, seeing a fat sheep.
Duan Ling and Xu Xiaoyue passed by a few people, Xu Xiaoyue didn't notice the young man's eyes, but Duan Ling saw everything about him.
Until the figures of Duan Ling and Xu Xiaoyue had entered the house and disappeared from the young man's sight, the young man still did not move half a step, as if his soul had left his body at this moment.
"Young Patriarch ......"
The two middle-aged men behind the young man looked at each other and smiled after seeing the young man's expression at this time, they knew very well this young patriarch of themselves, this is a person who can't walk half a step when he sees a beautiful woman, even if his family has already had a group of wives and concubines, but he still can't get rid of his extremely lustful problem.
Hearing the calls of the two people behind him, the young man pulled his thoughts back from Xu Youdao's house.
"I want that woman. The young man spoke, his tone extremely firm.
"I'm afraid it's a little difficult to do, as far as I know, it's Xu Youdao's daughter. One of the middle-aged men said.
"Xu Youdao, to put it mildly, it sounds like the lower part of our Yuehua tribe, but in fact, it is the servant of our Yuehua tribe, he dares to refuse?" said the young man with a wicked smile.
"Young Patriarch, having said that, we need the gourd tribe to grow spiritual grass for us, if we force it, I'm afraid it will ......"
"Uncle Ji, Uncle Luo, you two are really old, I don't believe that his gourd tribe dares to resist under iron-blooded means, unless he Xu Youdao doesn't want the gourd tribe to continue to exist. Don't worry, he doesn't dare, after all, he is attached to us in order to allow the gourd tribe to continue to exist, and he will definitely know how to choose. The young man laughed evilly, glanced at Xu Youdao's house again, and walked away. Only the two middle-aged people behind him shook their heads secretly, but after all, the young patriarch was the one who would take over the power of the patriarch in the future, and they didn't dare to disobey him.
"Daddy, who are they?" Xu Xiaoyue walked into the house and asked Xu Youdao.
"Shangguan Yun, the young patriarch of the Yuehua tribe, this time he will collect the spirit grass we handed over. Xu Youdao said with some resentment on his face.
"I thought it was still early, but I didn't expect it to come so soon, let's prepare all the spirit grass within five days, and I said that I extended the time by two more days. ”
"That's right, Duan Ling. I also asked them about the Nanling Yunding Sect just now, but they don't seem to know where its location is. Xu Youdao said apologetically.
Duan Ling suddenly felt that his mind was blank, how far had this teleportation sent him.
"Uncle Xu, it's okay, let's inquire slowly in the future. Duan Ling reluctantly squeezed a smile out of his face.
......
Following.
Shangguan Yun and the three of them came to Xu Youdao's house early in the morning.
"Young patriarch, I don't know what else is going on?" Xu Youdao introduced a few people into the house.
"Patriarch Xu, I received an urgent order from my father yesterday, my Yuehua tribe is now facing a war, and this time I need your department to prepare 20,000 spiritual grasses of various kinds. Shangguan Yun raised the water glass on the table, took a sip, and said lightly.
"What?" Xu Youdao, who was sitting on the side, heard that the spirit grass had added 10,000 more plants in just one night, how could this make him calm down.
"What, there's a problem?" Shangguan Yun said with a gloomy face.
"It's... This, young patriarch, is really not that much of all our spirit grasses combined. Xu Youdao was extremely angry at this time, but he was helpless about it.
"That's your business, if you can't prepare, let my Yuehua army come and get it personally. Shangguan Yun was about to leave with a flick of his sleeves.
"Young patriarch, I have something to say, and I ask you to give the patriarch more time to forgiveness, I... I'll definitely find a way to get enough spirit grass as soon as possible. Xu Youdao's face was pale, this was an ultimatum to the gourd tribe, either to get enough spirit grass or to start a war to exterminate the clan.
"Patriarch Xu, it's actually not impossible. There is a way to let you only hand over 10,000 of each spirit grass, and you can also let the gourd tribe avoid all worries. Shangguan Yun said with a sincere smile.
It's just that this smile fell into Xu Youdao's eyes, but it made him feel a bad premonition in his heart.
"What... What's the solution?" Xu Youdao stammered.
