Chapter 73 Star Alliance Forum

With the blessing of Lu Xuan's wood-related abilities, every tree had a great harvest, and in the end, more than 8,000 kilograms of fruit were harvested.

Lu Xuan was not a devil after all. After discussing with others, he decided to leave some ripe fruits for the monkeys. Otherwise, they could have harvested at least another 1,800 kilograms.

However, eight thousand kilograms was enough to make the members of the collection team so excited that they pinched their Ren Zhong.

After picking the fruits, Lu Xuan pulled out a few trees of each different kind as usual, and pulled out all the trees with fewer fruits.

After a busy morning, everyone was hungry, so they had lunch in the orchard.

In the afternoon, Lu Xuan led the two teams to continue changing locations.

This time we didn't find a second orchard, but we did find a few relatively large wild flower bushes by smelling the flowers. Following the bushes, we found two beehives of different sizes and got dozens of kilograms of honey.

The number of pheasants and hares in the newly explored area increased again. The hunting team's arrows missed several times. On the way back, they also encountered a small group of wild goats, a total of twelve large and small, and they caught them all in one fell swoop.

Under the protection of the hunting team, the gathering team also picked a lot of wild vegetables and common Chinese medicinal herbs, but they hardly encountered any mushrooms, probably because the environment they were wandering in today was too dry and not suitable for mushroom growth.

·

When they returned to their residence in the evening, the villagers who stayed behind almost laughed their mouths off when they learned about their harvest today.

More than 8,000 kilograms of fruit, hundreds of kilograms of honey, twelve sheep, several chickens, rabbits and other prey, and 300 kilograms of grain that Lu Xuan exchanged for monkey wine. It can be called a big harvest among big harvests!

Because Lu Xuan contributed to the fruit harvest, in addition to the hunting harvest, Lu Xuan also got 30% of the fruit.

Despite this, everyone still made a fortune from the remaining portion. Each family could get at least 30 kilograms of fruit. If there happened to be members of the gathering or hunting team in the family, the amount could be doubled or tripled to over 100 kilograms.

Those with less food could get more than three kilograms, and those with more could get more than ten kilograms. Each family could also get at least one and a half kilograms of honey.

It’s not that no one wanted to try the monkey wine, but you wanted to try it, and I wanted to try it too. There was only so much wine in total, which was not enough to share, so in the end everyone just collected the food and didn’t think about it anymore.

However, Lu Xuan, after the village chief had distributed the supplies, used his grain to exchange the 25 kilograms of honey from the public supplies for 20 kilograms.

For the village chief, food is naturally more important than honey which cannot be eaten. Moreover, Lu Xuan specially left five kilograms of it, so naturally he had no objection.

That night, some families followed Lu Xuan's example and cooked the meat for dinner into honey chicken and honey pork. Others cooked mutton, either stewed or braised, and some stir-fried it with green onions.

As a herbivore, mutton tastes much better than wild boar meat. Except for those who don’t like the fishy smell of mutton, everyone enjoys eating it.

Eat some crispy and sweet fruits after the meal, and your life will be as beautiful as a paradise!

The fruits catalyzed by the wood-type ability are not as sour and astringent as ordinary wild fruits. Most of them are 80% sweet and 20% sour. They are large and round, full of juice, and burst with juice when you bite them.

Only a small portion of them are already ripe and have a strong acidity, but if they are too sour to eat dry, they can be used as seasoning, so they will not be wasted.

The young people gathered together, eating fruit and sighing, "We have plenty of meat and fish to eat every day, but many of the disaster victims outside are probably dying of heat and hunger right now."

The elders sitting nearby, trying to digest their food, glanced at them sideways and said, "Then you don't have to eat."

The young people were startled and quickly changed their words: "That won't do!" They stockpiled the supplies with their own ability, so why shouldn't they eat them?

The elders scoffed, "Then stop talking nonsense. Eat when you should, drink when you should, and don't take other people's business to heart."

They are living comfortably now, but who knows if they will encounter any accidents after the hottest season?

There are always people who have difficulties in life. If we have to consider and compare every one of them, we will not be able to live.

Make as much as you can while you can enjoy it.

Everyone thought it made sense when they heard it. Forget it, let’s not think about anything else and just cherish what we have!

In addition to the joy of a good harvest that night, there was another thing that made everyone very happy. That was that the village chief finally discovered the secret of why the Lu family's small cave was so cool, and he rented it to Lu Xuan to install a purple crystal air conditioner in the big cave.

Interstellar air conditioners are much more powerful than modern ones, but the area of the cave is too large, and one unit cannot handle it. Two units are just right, so Lu Xuan installed the remaining two units in the village.

Lu Xuan only asked the village for a daily rental fee of one kilogram of grain for each of the two air conditioners, which was a very good deal.

As soon as the air conditioner was turned on, the cave, which was already much cooler than outside, suddenly became even cooler.

The air conditioner also has a very complete air purification function. While cooling, it can also sweep away all the unpleasant odors mixed in the cave, and provide the villagers with a fresh environment suitable for human habitation.

Zhang Chengming, Li Jing and other men took a deep breath, and when they found that the only smell left in the air was the unique smell of soil and rocks of the cave, they were so excited that tears filled their eyes.

“The taste is literally gone! So good!!!”

"I thought we'd have to live like this until the extreme heat season was over!"

"Honestly, the smell of sweat and urine in the cave every day makes me suspect that I have been pickled. The first thing I do every morning when I wake up is to go to the river and wash myself from head to toe."

The audience in the live broadcast room couldn't help laughing when they heard the sighs on their faces.

[Pfft, so they also know how miserable it is in the cave. I thought they were completely numb, but now they can smell something.]

[Don't mention it, I can't help but think of the opening screen critical hit when sharing was first launched. Ugh——]

[+1, the memory of the death suddenly came back to me. Ugh—I was already prepared to shut down the sharing system whenever the host came to the cave, but I didn't expect the host to do something special.]

[Tsk tsk, these villagers must have saved the universe in their past lives to have met the host. How can the disaster victims outside have such a good life? There's a disaster going on, and yet they still have air conditioning.]

[Title: Daily Question: Has anyone successfully contracted a mutant plant today?] (Explosion)

1L: As the title says. It's been a while since the news of the streamer contracting a mutant vampire vine surfaced. Aren't there a lot of people who have tried contracting mutant plants? So, does anyone have any good news to share?

2L: If it were that easy, the anchor wouldn’t be the first person to contract a mutated plant.

12L: To be precise, not only is he the first, but he's the only one to date. Shouldn't those unimpressive Wood-type esperians reflect on themselves? Pointing fingers.

48L: Can the Wood-type psychics give the Star Alliance some pride? Are we really going to lose to an ancient streamer? Don't you feel ashamed?

66L: A wood-type mutant can earn tens of thousands of dollars in just a few minutes by growing natural food. Isn't he much more competitive than the person above? What's the shame?

78L: Actually, it’s not the fault of the Star Alliance’s wood-type mutants who are not competitive. The wood-type mutants are all weaklings. Even if they want to make a contract, they don’t have the strength. Not everyone is Lu Xuan.

102L: Don't mention it, you really shouldn't mention it! I actually know a motivated wood-type psychic who is interested in contracting mutant plants and has hired a mercenary group to help.

213L: Is it true? What happened next? What happened next? Was it successful?

234L: Same follow-up, don’t keep me in suspense, tell me now @102L.

…

624L: Oh my god, you guys are building so fast! Don't worry, I'm going to talk about it soon. Of course, success is impossible. Like my second brother said, it's not that easy. First of all, you can't just contract any useless mutant plant, right? Just selecting suitable varieties with combat effectiveness or special effects takes time.

Secondly, you have to determine the level. Level 2 or 3 mutant plants have limited combat power and are not as effective as an energy gun, so the level must be at least level 5 or above. However, mutant plants above level 5 are very fierce and difficult to kill, let alone tame.

The most important thing is, I really want to tame it, but I don't know how! In the end, not only did I delay my original work of producing natural food, but I also spent a lot of money to hire mercenaries. The mercenaries were injured in battle and their employers had to pay for their medical expenses. In just a few days, I lost millions of star coins. It was a huge loss.

738L: Hiss! Just listening to this, I feel so bad for this unknown wood-type psychic.

750L: This is the disparity in the world. We are both wood-type mutants... No, we can both use wood-type power, so why is there such a big gap between us?

766L: Could it be that the mercenaries we hired are too weak? I think this kind of thing needs to be handled by the authorities themselves.

780L: Speaking of officials, it's been days, and there seems to be no response at all? If the military takes action, it will definitely be much more effective than the mercenaries. If successful, the overall strength of the military will definitely be greatly enhanced. I don't believe that the higher-ups are really not tempted at all.

820L: How do you know there is no affection and no action?

1033L: I've never heard of this. Could it be that my village has internet access? Do you know anything about this? @820L

1308L: What I mean is, is it possible that the military failed after trying it, and felt it was a disgrace to their talent, so they didn’t publicize it?

1310L: Ah, this... is really possible.

1456L: Actually, I think that instead of trying blindly by yourself, it is better to ask the anchor directly. Isn’t this more efficient than wasting a lot of time, energy and money?

1542L: Isn't this secret to becoming stronger a personal secret? How can a streamer openly reveal it in front of millions of people in a livestream? That's incredible.

1611L: But the streamer isn't in the Star Alliance, so even if he tells us, it won't hurt him. At worst, we can just give it to them for free and crowdfund the gifts, treating it like we bought it! Even if we can't buy the solution right away, we can still make our presence known to the streamer and make him familiar.

1823L: That's a solution! You don't have to spend real money on gifts, though. Poor people can try a different approach. Aren't streamers almost reaching a data bottleneck? Editing the livestream replays and creating a few highlights compilations to help promote and attract traffic to the streamer would be much more appealing than simply giving gifts, right?

2233L: ...You guys are such clever little bastards! Great idea! This is my edited collection! After I'm done, I'll go find the anchor and take credit for it, so he'll recognize me, and then I'll secretly tell me the secret of the contracted mutant plant, hehehe.

2235L: Take me with you!

Of course, there was more than one smart person. Before long, various replay collections of Lu Xuan’s live broadcast room appeared on Xingbo.

There are videos of stones hunting, blood-sucking vines showing their power and killing robbers in seconds, blood-sucking vines fighting against wolves, and a collection of scenes of Lu Xuan using various supernatural powers to process various delicacies. It can be said that there are many ways to do it.

As the number of views of these videos continued to increase, many interstellar citizens who had not originally paid attention to the plane live broadcast discovered Lu Xuan, the new anchor.
