"This is a kind of Xitu, which can absorb all things and turn them into its own nutrients."
"Only plants planted there can absorb its nutrients."
Ye Fanchen said this and looked at Wu Fangshan, "If I'm not mistaken, there used to be a huge tree at the main pillar of Yida Plaza. It must have lived for hundreds of years, but you cut it down for the construction, right?"
Ye Fanchen's words immediately made Wu Fangshan's pupils shrink!
Wu Fangshan just nodded vigorously.
But his eyes were full of suspicion!
Because it is very common to move large trees, vegetation, etc. for projects.
But Ye Fanchen's tone just now clearly showed that he was certain that they had cut down the ancient tree.
Logically speaking, they might also move the ancient trees!
"Cut it down? Aren't you being too wasteful? That's an ancient tree that's at least hundreds of years old! It's witnessed history!"
Sure enough, Lu Tianming beside him couldn't help but complain: "Your father deserves that his project can't go ahead. He's totally heartless!"
"That's right. If I had known you were going to cut down ancient trees just to make money, I would have left you alone!"
At this time, even An Muxi couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment.
"Oh...it's not that we are heartless, it's that tree that can't be moved!"
However, when Wu Fangshan saw the two blaming them like this, he immediately smiled bitterly and explained: "I don't know what happened to that tree. We wanted to dig it up with its roots and preserve it in the soil, but we found that the crane couldn't lift it at all!"
"At first, we thought there was too much soil stuck to the tree roots, so we thought about digging it out."
"Guess what happened? The dirt stuck to it like a spirit, and I couldn't get it off!"
"When we heard about this incident, the construction team members were terrified. Several of them fled overnight, thinking they had hit a sacred tree."
Wu Fangshan still feels scared when he talks about this.
They felt that the sacred tree was punishing them.
"So you just have to cut down the tree and bury the main pillar on top of it, right?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Fanchen smiled faintly and directly pointed out the truth.
“Yes, yes, yes!”
At this moment, Wu Fangshan nodded his head like a chick pecking at rice, but a look of doubt remained on his face. "But what's strange is that if the roots of the tree can't be moved, why did it collapse and sink when the main pillar was put up there?"
Ye Fanchen smiled faintly and explained:
"Because this soil must have living vegetation to remain stable."
"You cut down that big tree, and its roots quickly became inactive. Plus, you dug up the soil around it, leaving it with no way to absorb other nutrients. So, the cement you poured down and the main pillars you put in became its only source of nutrients."
Ye Fanchen said this and picked up a pebble in the somewhat incredulous eyes of Wu Fangshan and others.
As the pebbles were placed on this piece of soil.
The pebbles, which were originally the size of a fist, were being swallowed up at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Finally, the soil secreted some gray-black slag.
Wu Fangshan was shocked and wiped it away.
But I found that the stone debris was instantly crushed into powder, without any sense of hardness.
At this moment, Wu Fangshan was stunned!
He really didn't expect that a piece of soil could decompose and absorb the stone?
"It is precisely because of the loss of the tree that this land has become restless. It will absorb any substance that stimulates it!"
"That's why, after you added rocks, instead of alleviating and stabilizing the situation, it still collapsed."
"Because those stones also became nutrients for it. However, the more stones there were, the longer it took for it to absorb them. So, at first, the dome didn't collapse. But when those stones were absorbed, the main pillar still couldn't escape the fate of being decomposed!"
After Ye Fanchen finished speaking, he put the Xitu away.
"So, when I rescued him, I took this thing away, and the main pillar could be put down again without being affected."
"As for this Xitu, consider it as the interest I receive for saving people."
Ye Fanchen's explanations finally made Wu Fangshan and the others understand.
"They say the world is full of wonders...it seems our knowledge is still too limited!"
"By the way, Mr. Ye, what are you doing in the provincial capital this time? Do you need my help?"
Wu Fangshan learned that construction of Yida Plaza could resume.
He immediately regained his spirits and tried to find out if Ye Fanchen needed his help.
After all, if he can help Ye Fanchen, or even make Ye Fanchen owe him a favor, then his future will be limitless.
"We have some private matters to attend to in the provincial capital, so you don't have to come with us." However, Ye Fanchen rejected Wu Fangshan without hesitation.
It’s not just because Wu Fangshan is not very familiar with them.
Another point is that Wu Fangshan is not strong enough, and it would be a hindrance to bring him along.
Ye Fanchen was not in the mood to spare any more.
Distract yourself to protect this kid.
"Okay..." Wu Fangshan was at a loss when he heard this, but he remembered what Ye Fanchen said about Xitu needing vegetation to stabilize it.
His eyes suddenly lit up, and he introduced, "By the way, Master Ye, in a few days, the provincial capital will hold a herbal medicine exchange conference. At that time, herbal medicine dealers from all over Xia Country will gather together, and there will also be a herbal vegetation selection event!"
"Who knows, maybe there are herbs or plants there that you need?"
It has to be said that Wu Fangshan's mind works very quickly, because after obtaining the Xitu, Ye Fanchen really needs to cultivate precious vegetation.
After all, he could easily build his foundation, but his parents and relatives needed the assistance of foundation-building pills.
However, the evil dragon demon pill and the spirit turtle are not something you can easily come across.
Maybe, Ye Fanchen will have to rely on the natural treasures he cultivated himself to make a new batch of foundation-building pills.
"Then we can go and have a look after we finish our business."
"If you're there, we can meet at the entrance to the conference."
Ye Fanchen smiled faintly, but his words touched Wu Fangshan's heart.
"Okay! Okay! Master Ye, don't worry. My father has some connections in the Lake Province. He will definitely help you get the best herbs and plants. I won't bother you anymore. I hope you have a safe journey!"
After getting this permission, Wu Fangshan did not delay any longer.
After getting a little further away from the helicopter, he waved goodbye.
He knew that he had no intention of interfering in the private affairs of Ye Fanchen and others, but he could do so at the exchange conference in a few days!
At that time, he will definitely use his connections to help Ye Fanchen find what he needs!
And just after Wu Fangshan left.
In the distant flower bushes, several assassins from the Shadow Sword Sect peeked out and cried out what a pity.
"Baka! Ye Fanchen is so damn lucky! The collapsed dome didn't even crush him!"
"Yeah, I don't know what happened in there. It's a pity that bastard was kicked out."
"Humph, if I had known earlier, I would have blocked Ye Fanchen and the others inside. Who knows, they might have been crushed to death!"
These Shadow Sword Sect assassins were unable to enter the buildings in the square, so they had no idea what Ye Fanchen had done.
They just felt sorry that Ye Fanchen was not killed!
