Chapter 289 Weird Food "........cough cough......

"........Ahem." Ye Lu coughed a few times to cover up his embarrassment, and said, "It was just a small accident. There was no problem with Qingsong's fruit. It was still the quantity we agreed on."

Ye Lu knew what Zhu Hui was most worried about, and he comforted Zhu Hui as soon as he opened his mouth.

When Zhu Hui heard this, he heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, fortunately, there are only a few green pine seeds. If they were really destroyed, it would be too painful."

"But what kind of accident happened? If I remember correctly, Qingsong's strength is quite good." Zhu Hui asked in confusion.

Ye Lu didn't say anything, but just glanced at the little red fur ball lying on the stone table. Even though Ah Xi Xiaoniao knew that the two people were talking about him, he didn't intend to speak.

Zhu Hui followed Ye Lu's gaze and saw that even though Ah Xi the bird sensed their gazes, it still pretended to be dead. How could it not know who the culprit was.

"........" Zhu Hui was silent for a while, and then suddenly said seriously: "Lord Chongshan, sometimes you can't spoil your child too much."

Should we say that he is the one who only has eyes for the share of strange food? The businessman from Shizhu Village, he was clearly full of praise for the bird-like form of the playful man before, but when it comes to the production of strange food, he immediately changes his mind.

Ye Lu couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he heard Zhu Hui's sincere words.

Ah Xi the little bird also raised his head from the stone table, his small black eyes full of disdain, but Zhu Hui was not someone he cared about, so he quickly looked away.

"Don't worry, what belongs to you is still yours." Ye Lu assured the worried Zhu Hui, "You are still worried about Qingsong's strength. Ah Xi didn't cause any damage. You just need to come and get it as agreed."

When Zhu Hui heard this, his eyes lit up and he quickly stepped forward and said, "You mean this batch of green pine nuts can still mature according to the previously agreed time?"

Ye Lu nodded and said, "In theory, the time it takes for Qingsong to mature will be extended as my cultivation level improves. But Qingsong himself has also improved, so the time it takes for the fruit to mature has been shortened by half. Plus, half of the five strange plant remains you sent over are left. If we use all of them this time, the time it takes to mature should be the same as we predicted, about thirty-five years, so there is still about a year and a half left."

"Very good." Zhu Hui's face was full of joy, and he said, "That's great."

"Finally the green pine nuts are ripe. You don't know how many people want them. I don't have any in my hands now, so I have to hide them everywhere." Zhu Hui said helplessly. If he met a really powerful evil spirit who came to ask for the green pine nuts, he would really have to hide. There was no other way, he really didn't have any in his hands.

Most of the golden tangerines and bay seeds in hand had been sold out early on, and the one or two left were the ones in the bottom of the box, which were used to trade for good goods. He would not sell them until he saw the rabbit.

Speaking of the remains of the five strange plants, Ye Lu easily thought of the child with whom he had formed an alliance before.

The former young master of Putao Mountain Range—Lan Ji.

Ye Luyuan had heard of Lan Ji's reputation in the Jinshi Mountains from the passing caravans. Of course, it wasn't a good reputation.

"Young Master Lan Ji, I heard that you have been doing very well recently?" Ye Lu coughed lightly, reached out and grabbed the red-feathered bird on the stone table, squeezed it unnoticeably, and changed the subject.

Zhu Hui paused, and quickly added: "That's right, he is about to become the leader of the young people in the Southern Ten Thousand Mountains." Zhu Hui said the last sentence with a smile.

Zhu Hui never thought that Lan Ji would become what he is now. It must be said that the several strange foods given by Lord Chongshan at the beginning played the most crucial role. Lan Ji's foundation was very solid and his talent was brought into play to the best.

He simply gathered a group of people and started a business, helping people transport resources from the wilderness to the outside of the wilderness. Anyway, he was strong enough and had a fierce descendant of the disaster beast beside him. He didn't have to worry about being robbed by others during the transportation of resources. He could even rob them back and make a name for himself.

The news that Zhu Hui had heard was that no matter which force in the Ten Thousand Mountains in the South held a competition, Lan Ji would definitely participate and take first place, just like a storm sweeping across all major forces to obtain resources to reward geniuses.

For a time? Unlimited scenery

Moreover, many forces valued Lan Ji's future and tried to fund him to get a share of the resources, but unfortunately they were all rejected by Lan Ji.

"Very good." Ye Lu nodded, very satisfied with what he heard. Seeing Zhu Hui's satisfied look, he knew that Lan Ji must be doing very well outside. Who doesn't like the people they sponsor to move to a higher level?

"Is he still in the Ten Thousand Mountains in the South?" Ye Lu quickly turned his attention to Lan Ji. He frowned and thought about Lan Ji's location. His intuition told him that there was something wrong with this location. He was not wrong. Haha, although Lan Ji's enemy was eliminated by Yue Lingshan and the swordsman, the mastermind behind his enemy seemed to be near the Ten Thousand Mountains in the South, right? It seemed to be called Madam Shimu?

"Lan Ji is ready for revenge?" Ye Lu suddenly asked.

Zhu Hui was stunned, he immediately shook his head and said, "How can that be possible? Lan Ji's strength is not enough. He has been looking for opportunities to make trouble. When he reaches the Blood Grudge level, he will probably be able to take action."

Ye Lu understood that Lan Ji could not face him head-on yet, so he was looking for an opportunity. He fell into thought and quickly said, "When he makes a move, remember to tell me in advance, and I will give him a gift."

"Then I would like to thank you on behalf of Lan Ji." Zhu Hui said with a smile.

"No need." Ye Lu said calmly: "He has done a good job, so I am naturally willing to continue to increase my investment." All in all, Lan Ji has been very serious over the years, otherwise Ye Lu would not have spent a lot of money to continue investing.

Zhu Hui's smile deepened. Yes, that's right. Zhu Hui said that what he likes most is a win-win situation.

After discussing the things Zhu Hui brought up, the most important thing is to write them down.

Ye Lu spread out his palm to reveal the little bird Axi in his hand.

As soon as Ye Lu moved, Zhu Hui naturally turned his attention to the little bird Axi.

"Look? Look?" Zhu Hui was not an outsider, so Ye Lu didn't need to be polite. He said directly, "What do you think?"

Zhu Hui looked at it for a moment, and asked in confusion: "Are you going to use the strange food as a catalyst?" According to common sense, the bloodline will naturally grow up with time.

Ye Lu nodded and said, "It has been a long time since it grew up. Calculating the time, it is time for it to eat strange food."

Even in the previous world, when people transformed into alien species in the world, they had to eat more spiritual food in their childhood. In this world, it would be strange food.

Ye Lu thanked their good luck in coming to this rich world more than once. Although they needed to exchange strange food everywhere, it was really not available. If they were in the Star Network, they would have nowhere to exchange it. All the spiritual food related to bloodline was hidden tightly by the owner. The owner didn't even have enough to eat, so how could he possibly give it out?

Zhu Hui looked at it for a moment, then nodded when he heard Ye Lu's words. He reached out again and tried to pull open the wings of the red-haired bird. Ah Xi bird opened its eyes and was about to retract its wings, but Ye Lu gently tapped its head. It reluctantly put them back and let Zhu Hui pull its little wings and look at it carefully.

When Zhu Hui withdrew his hand, he immediately couldn't wait to fold the furry little wings under his body, his disgust clearly revealed.

"He now needs strange food that can strengthen his wings and strange food that can catalyze his bloodline. Let him eat these two first. I'll find a way to get the others later." Zhu Hui frowned and said, "The strange food that can strengthen the wings is easy to get. There is some in the King's Court of Beasts, and the level is not low. Yang Kan has influence there, so I should be able to exchange it for it." Since they are all friends and have already formed an alliance, it is tacitly agreed that all resources will be exchanged. Zhu Hui used it very calmly.

"It's not certain about the strange food that can catalyze blood. This kind of strange food has always been hard to find. Only a few forces have produced this kind of strange plants on this continent so far, and they are all hidden very well. Brother Axi's blood is too strong. If he wants to catalyze it, he must use the best kind of strange food, which is even more difficult to get."

Ye Lu said very straightforwardly: "As long as there is some strange food on the mountain, whether it is Qingxin peach or Huangpi fruit from He Village at the foot of the mountain, you can take it as long as you can exchange it."

Zhu Hui nodded. This was what he wanted. He also gave Ye Lu a heads-up in advance, and reminded him, "This catalytic bloodline is acquired step by step. The initial ghost can be exchanged for yellow-skinned fruit. After that, it will probably need green pine seeds and pure heart peaches above the Blood Grudge level. Laurel seeds above the middle Blood Grudge level will also work. Yellow-skinned fruit... won't work yet."

"What do you mean?" Ye Lu also knew that there were differences between the strange foods on the mountain. For example, the yellow-peeled fruit, as a strange food that prolongs life, should be more valuable than the clear heart peach and the green pine nut. The latter two have very strong effects, but if they are really compared in terms of effect on prolonging life, they will naturally be at a disadvantage.

But when Ye Lu saw the latter two, he immediately concluded that Qingxin peach and Qingsongzi were more valuable than Huangpi fruit, golden mandarin was more valuable than Huangpi fruit, and laurel seeds were more valuable than golden mandarin. These classifications were not based on level and function but on a kind of feeling in the dark.

Now that Zhu Hui brought it up, Ye Lu couldn't help but ask the question in his mind.

"Do you still remember the black locust seeds?" Zhu Hui nodded in understanding, and he said that Lord Chongshan was almost able to sense these strange foods. He paused and gave an example of a special strange food.

"Of course I remember." Ye Lu nodded. The black locust seeds left a deep impression on people. Although they were half as useful as the ones in the garden, the price gave the Chongshan trio a little shock. At that time, the fledgling Zhu Hui, even though he was short of money and tried his best to get a share of the Chongshan strange food, chose not to sell without hesitation when Ye Lu just showed his intention to bargain.

All of this is still fresh in Ye Lu's memory.

The effect of black locust seeds is consistent with the shock it gave people that time.

Ye Lu is now the leader of a faction after all. He feels that it was the wisest decision he had ever made to lure Zhu Hui to take out three portions.

"There is another type of weird food above all the weird foods on this continent called the weird-type weird food. There is no specific classification for weird-type weird food. There is only a feeling that each of them has different attributes. It can even be said that if someone is not familiar with them, it is easy to confuse them with ordinary weird food."

"But it's different?"

"All strange foods have a special strange power."
