Chapter 238 Punishment for Stealing
In the following days, everyone racked their brains to please the Chongming bird that appeared frequently, but the result was still the same! They just lowered their heads to smell it and ignored it, and some people didn't even have the face to lower their heads to smell it.
Ji Qingling, thinking that she might be the chosen one, tried the wine in her storage bag and then she stubbornly offered the fruit tea she had cooked.
The thing, which had no smell of alcohol at all, was swept off the spiritual tree by the Chongming Bird with one claw!
Very good, no one should try to take shortcuts.
After the Chongming Bird left, everyone was discouraged. They had invested too much energy in the unknown benefits these days!
Ji Guangjin muttered to Ji Zhihan in a low voice, "It's better to go pick spiritual fruits."
Ji Zhihan only said lightly, "Look at the people of the Jiang family. Why are they so persistent? Think carefully before you speak."
"Alas, Jiang Songqing, since it's already like this, just talk about it, you can't hang us to death!"
I don't know how to say it. Jiang Songqing has been in a bad mood recently. Seeing everyone following him like idiots, he feels a little better! Ji Qingling returned to his own territory and placed all the materials for brewing wine in the storage bag on the ground.
"Toothless, do you think I should try something amazing?"
“Coocoo~Coocoo~”
"What kind of wine do you think Chongming likes to drink?"
Amu also followed her example and sat cross-legged on the ground, shaking his head and saying, "I don't know~"
Ji Qingling fell to the grass in annoyance, looking at the red bead tree above his head, "Forget it, I won't force it."
She just turned sideways, and suddenly sat up again, looking upwards, "No way!"
Ji Qingling took out a red pearl fruit from another storage bag. Could it be that she really wanted to use the red pearl fruit to make wine as she thought?
Oh my god!
She doesn't want it!
She held up the spiritual fruit and asked the spiritual tree, "Senior Tree, are you there?"
"Yeah~"
"Could it be that the Chongming bird likes to drink the wine brewed from this magical fruit?"
"Yeah~"
"Senior Shu, how much treasure can this Chongming bird give us after drinking the wine? It actually uses hundreds or thousands of years old spiritual fruits to make wine?"
"Yeah~"
Very good, this word of gratitude has clearly told Ji Qingling that it is worth it!
But Ji Qingling still felt pain! She had obtained dozens of them in these days, which was still considered a lot. Some unlucky people only had a few that were hundreds of years old.
"Senior Tree, if I ask you where there are other trees that bear fruit today, you won't tell me, right?"
"Yeah~"
Okay, no more words, Senior Shu wouldn’t lie to her.
Ji Qingling took out half of the spiritual fruits of a younger age from his storage bag and started making wine.
Alas, what kind of nectar is this? Because time cannot flow in the storage bag, the wine can only be kept in the formation.
The national treasure received a new mission, which was to guard the jar and wait for the wine to be brewed.
~ That night, a scream suddenly broke out in the originally quiet training environment! When everyone followed the sound, they found a person with his hands and feet tied up and hanging upside down on a tree.
The most shocking thing is that the man is completely naked, without any clothes to cover himself!
Tu Zhongfu! Ji Yuting covered her eyes and turned Ji Qingling's head away, "This guy is so embarrassing!"
As the captain of a team, Ji Zhihan swung his sword and rescued Tu Zhongfu from under the tree.
"Fellow Daoist Tu, what happened?"
Being robbed?
Even if you were robbed, you, a monk, were hung on a tree, but you didn't know how to save yourself? Your brain was also robbed? Tu Zhongfu got down to the ground, curled up into a ball, and trembled.
Ji Zhihan took out clothes from the storage bag and threw them to him, "Put them on first."
Tu Zhongfu put on his clothes and didn't say anything. He just sat there with a dead look on his face.
It looked like he wasn't injured, but who on earth could have such a big grudge against him? He even took off all his clothes? Ji Qingling pulled Ji Yuting, "Let's go first."
This was the third naked body she had seen recently. She really needed to go and cleanse her eyes, she couldn't stand it anymore.
The next day, everyone knew what had happened yesterday, and Tu Zhongfu didn't dare to raise his head for a long time.
Jiang Songqing had said at the beginning that you must never think of taking the saplings out of the secret realm, otherwise the consequences would be serious.
Now that I think about it, the ancestors of the Jiang family or the Yun family must have done something like this.
Tu Zhongfu didn't know who gave him the courage, but when he found a small seedling, he quietly dug it out and put it into a storage bag.
I originally thought that such a small tree would not be discovered.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Even if he couldn't wait for the spirit tree to bear fruit, selling it to those noble families would still be more valuable than a few three thousand year old spirit fruits.
Who knew that just as he put the things into the storage bag, the spiritual tree closest to him suddenly stretched out many branches and pulled away all his things, including the clothes he was wearing.
At that moment he knew he was in trouble, and he knelt down and kowtowed to the spirit tree to admit his mistake.
But the spirit tree would not let him go. It tied Tu Zhongfu's hands and feet and hung him upside down on the tree.
In the next few days, Tu Zhongfu wore the clothes given by Ji Zhihan and continued to kneel in front of the old spiritual tree and confess his sins.
They probably thought that this old spiritual tree had been providing them with pure spiritual power and would be an easy-to-talk-to tree.
After a few days, he finally faced the reality: the storage bag was gone, his collections of many years, his magic weapons and robes, everything he had was gone.
Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in the world.
When others saw what happened to Tu Zhongfu, they no longer had any thoughts of stealing saplings out. They even had to be more careful about their steps when walking, for fear of stepping on some saplings that had their tender buds stripped and hung on the trees.
Ji Qingling also heard from Ji Yuting that Ji Zhihan used two low-grade magic weapons, a flying sword and a storage bag to exchange for the next ten spiritual fruits that Tu Zhongfu picked.
If the spiritual fruits are not enough, replace them with other things when you reach the next secret realm!
No matter how unfair this deal was, Tu Zhongfu had no choice but to accept it. Without weapons and flying swords, he would not be able to leave the secret realm alive.
~ On this day, Ji Qingling's wine was finally brewed.
The strong aroma of wine made Ji Qingling couldn't help but take a sip.
Sure enough, that spiritual energy is about to burst out of the top of the head!
She thought about it and put some in two small bottles to leave for her master and her father.
As for the others, forget it, even she herself is not worthy of drinking it! After brewing the wine, she didn't want to go out to find any spiritual fruit, so she ran directly to the old spiritual tree and waited.
When the Chongming Bird comes again, she will be the first to take out her spiritual wine.
In front of the spirit tree, the three families left people to guard it. The previous teams and the like were of no use at this time.
Like Ji Qingling, those who were not with their tribesmen were either practicing by themselves under the tree or leaving their contracted spirit beasts here.
The people in front of the tree greeted Ji Qingling when they saw her, and looked at her as if they were looking at a walking high-level healing medicine.
Ji Qingling was beginning to get used to other people's gazes and was preparing to meditate when a clear bird cry came from a distance.
Here we come!
I searched on Baidu and found that wine can be made directly from fruits.
