Chapter 7 Spiritual Plant Diseases
Su Qingwu recalled the casting gestures again, and after making preparations, his spiritual power began to circulate rapidly.
As his hands continued to make hand gestures, a thin layer of mist began to appear over the nearly one-acre spiritual field.
Soon, the mist dissipated, and fine spiritual rain slowly fell, nourishing the spiritual plants.
This continued for about ten breaths. Su Qingwu's spiritual power was about to run out, so he stopped casting the spell.
At the same time, she once again heard the voices of several Huiling grasses that had been watered by the mysterious stone bottle.
"The spiritual energy is far from enough~"
"The spiritual spring water is still better~"
"I didn't absorb any spiritual spring water last night. Will it always be like this? I'll die of thirst..."
"Hey, looking forward to a heavy rain~"
After hearing these words, Su Qingwu silently picked up the bamboo bucket and left the courtyard...
As usual, I ran back and forth six times to complete the watering task.
The thoughts of the spiritual plants have changed greatly compared to before.
Words of gratitude kept coming to my ears.
Except for the spiritual plants that could hear the voice of the mind and sense its status, Su Qingwu carefully examined the rest.
When she reached the northwest corner of the spiritual field, she discovered that one of the Huiling grasses had some barely perceptible light yellow spots on its leaves.
He squatted down and observed for a while, his expression gradually becoming solemn.
This is a common disease in Lingtian, yellow erosion spot, which is highly contagious.
If one plant is found in a spiritual field and is not dealt with in time, the neighboring spiritual plants will soon be infected.
The initial symptoms are like what you see now, with pale yellow spots appearing on the leaves. In the middle stage, the corresponding leaves begin to rot and emit an unpleasant odor.
Eventually, the roots were affected and the entire spiritual plant died.
Once this disease occurs, if it is discovered early, the simplest and most effective way is to remove and burn the corresponding leaves to prevent further infection.
To be on the safe side, Su Qingwu directly pulled out the entire plant of Huiling grass that was infected with yellow erosion spots.
Then he returned to the house, got a fire starter, walked to the southwest corner of the yard, and burned it.
Losing one plant is not a big deal, but if the rest are infected, it will be a serious matter.
Although there are special pesticides that can eliminate yellow spot disease, they are very expensive and Su Qingwu cannot afford them at the moment.
After burning the infected spiritual plants, she walked around the spiritual field again, making sure there were no more problems before heading to Rudao Peak as usual.
Today we went to the Temple of the Spirits.
Just like before, there is a picture album of spiritual plants on every desk.
These books have been kept in the temple and cannot be taken away.
Su Qingwu came to her usual seat and, before the class started, flipped through the atlas to consolidate some of the knowledge she had learned about spiritual plants.
Not long after, the uncle who was teaching the class walked slowly in from outside the hall.
Su Qingwu looked up and was slightly startled.
The uncle who came today had gray hair and a silver mask on half of his face. On the other half, there was a centipede-shaped scar on his brow bone, which spread all the way to the wrinkles at the corner of his eye.
When the disciples saw him like this, they were all a little scared.
The class started with a slightly hoarse voice.
"Today I am not going to talk about ordinary spiritual plants, but those that are poisonous. In the world of immortal cultivation, there are countless poisonous substances, and there are no less than a hundred poisonous spiritual plants. As a spiritual plant master, you will inevitably come into contact with them in the future, so you must understand their characteristics, uses, and toxicity."
Having said this, he glanced at the disciples in the hall, and seeing that no one had any objections, he continued:
"Among the first-level spiritual plants, there are a total of 17 poisonous ones. The first one is the scorpiontail grass. There is a related record on page 274 of the spiritual plant atlas..."
