Chapter 363: Shedding Skin After Ye Lu came down the mountain, he always remembered what Qingsong said...
After Ye Lu came down the mountain, he always remembered what Qingsong said and directly sent the message to the two caravans, hoping that the two caravans could bring him some strange beast resources.
Zhu Hui and Ban Lan readily agreed. After all, they were all in the business of finding resources. What was the point of bringing resources? Besides, there were more strange plants than strange beasts. Strange beast resources were much easier to find and cheaper than strange plant resources. Although they were both Qingyou-level resources, strange beast resources were basically only two-thirds of the price of strange plant resources. In a sense, it was their caravan that made the profit.
Zhu Hui had heard more than once that the big tribes envied the King of Beasts for saving money on resources, and those seemingly powerful tricksters always expressed their true feelings about this.
When Zhu Hui really knew the price of the strange beast resources, he suddenly realized that maybe it was true love.
All in all, Lord Chongshan's request is more convenient for the two caravans.
The speed at which the two caravans found resources even far exceeded Ye Lu's expectations.
When another kind of strange food that could help the strange beast's fur become tough was delivered, Ye Lu took a look at the strange food. It should be the rhizome of some kind of plant, earthy yellow in color, with strong strange power. But it was not something that strange plants could absorb. It was more violent and more active. Ye Lu estimated that this was the characteristic of the strange beast's resources.
Ye Lu signaled the ghost scholar to put away the wooden box containing the resources and couldn't help but complain in his heart.
"The caravan is collecting these strange food resources too quickly." Ye Lu had expected it to be faster but he didn't expect it to be so fast. So many strange beast resources were sent over, and Ye Lu had also discussed with Guimen Youzi about getting some new strange food to try. In other words, most of the strange beast resources were given to the first batch of strange snake people who were born first.
These strange snake people have good talents, good physiques, and are favored by the strange men. They grow fast and have long been young snakes. After so many strange beast resources are invested, they are approaching adulthood at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The ghost scholar was speechless.
He hadn't anticipated this situation.
"At least it's a good thing." The ghost scholar was silent for a moment, and tried to think of some nice words to comfort Brother Lu, but finally he said it dryly.
After the ghost scholar finished speaking, he immediately prepared to go down the mountain.
As the strange snakes on the mountain approached maturity, Lu Ge's temper became more and more violent. Originally, he dared to take advantage of them verbally, but seeing that Lu Ge's temper level was rising sharply, even the ghost scholar could only avoid his edge.
Ye Lu watched the ghost scholar turn around and walk down the mountain. At first glance, he looked very elegant and calm, but in fact, under the eyes of people who knew him, he could only be described as a fleeing figure. He crossed his arms and snorted coldly.
Too lazy to investigate the unreliability of my brother.
However, Ye Lu couldn't stay here for long, as he also had to pay attention to the situation of the group of strange snake people.
The first place Ye Lu went to was the two-story building.
Next to the two-story building is planted the Chongshan vine. Because the Chongshan vine had once made an agreement with Guimen Youzi, Guimen Youzi needs to provide Guishe people and Chongshan vine will pay a certain amount of compensation. Considering the importance of Chongshan vine, Chongshan vine has a high degree of initiative in this agreement.
Guimen Youzi was almost overjoyed as the Party B. It wished it could rent its Guishe people to Party A's Chongshan Vines in exchange for compensation.
As a witness of "this agreement", Ye Lu saw the whole process of the Guimen oilman acting as the humble Party B, and his stereotype of the heavy mountain vines not being used as vines was further deepened.
What good vine can the heavy mountain vine be?
Of course not. Even if the filter of this vine is enlarged, weighted, and thickened to an incomparable level, Ye Lu himself cannot be said to be a good vine. He has a vicious mouth, a black heart, and loves to cheat others. He likes to curse people randomly. He starts cursing within a hundred miles of the selected target, and curses the target more heavily. He also curses all the victims in the range without mercy. Even Ye Lu, as the son of Mount Tai, is often cursed. Everyone in their Mount Tai lineage, from top to bottom, is cursed.
The heavy mountain vines will naturally not show mercy to the ghosts from the Guimen sect.
It...the first generation of Guishe people bred by Guimen Youzi are all coming.
When Ye Lu saw those half-grown Weird Snake People playing in the vines and branches of Chongshan, his eyes almost popped out. The first generation of Weird Snake People were almost the lifeblood of the Weird Men due to special reasons. Normally, other people would get nervous when they looked at the Weird Men People, but Chongshan was really bold.
Ye Lu arrived at the two-story building and saw the tall vine near the building from afar.
The colors are a mixture of dark green and brown, and the edges of the leaves are white like moonlight. From a distance, it looks like a tall tree, but when you get closer, you can tell that it is just a fixed vine.
Every time Ye Lu saw the heavy mountain vines, he couldn't help but feel curious. Why did the heavy mountain vines shape itself into such a large area? As an innate spiritual plant, Ye Lu left it a lot of space, so it could occupy the position halfway up the mountain, but it just abnormally only occupied a small point.
Besides, the Chongshan vines were not the type to think about other strange plants, so Ye Lu couldn't help but ask him the reason.
It's a pity that the Chongshan vines didn't respond at all. They just hummed lazily to Ye Lu's questions and didn't reply at all. Only when Ye Lu couldn't help it, he replied: "Some things are not the time for you to ask. When the time comes, you will naturally know. It's useless to glare at me. Do you know what it means that the secrets of heaven cannot be revealed? Don't you know that all of you in the Taishan lineage have such dull minds..."
There is a kind of pain of being scolded but being unable to refute.
When Ye Lu arrived, he saw the heavy mountain vines dividing their branches.
There are a total of six snake people, both men and women, who look quite evil. They all seem to be only eighteen or nineteen years old, with a somewhat immature look but can definitely be called beautiful. Apart from their white hair, fangs and pairs of snake eyes of different colors, they do not look like ordinary humans.
Each of the strange snake men has a thick snake tail, which is almost two to three meters long and covered with fine scales. Ye Lu has seen this group of strange snake men hunting monsters more than once. These powerful tails can spin the monsters into gyroscopes and smash them into pieces.
The ghost scholar then marveled at the sight of the Guimen Youzi, who could actually regard a group of ferocious beasts as pitiful little creatures who needed meticulous protection.
Ye Lu was fine, after all, they were a race born from innate spiritual plants. Ye Lu had a premonition long ago. It was mainly because those arrogant snake people outside were always very well-behaved in front of him, so Ye Lu was naturally more partial to them.
Ye Lu glanced at the six vines in the hands of the snake man.
Well, this one seems to be a little bigger than the one that the heavy mountain vines had agreed to.
It seems that he is not the only one who is biased.
Ye Lu immediately felt at ease.
Ye Lu spoke to the group of nervous snakemen in a gentle voice to comfort them, "Since Chongshan has already given you the vine branches, you should go back as soon as possible."
The serpent people looked at each other, hissed in gratitude to Ye Lu, and then slid towards Ercheng Mountain, swinging their snake tails.
As soon as the cunning snake man left, the two-story building suddenly became much quieter.
Only then did Ye Lu have time to talk to the Chongshan vines.
"How come you have time to come out today?" Ye Lu said towards the location of the heavy mountain vines.
"Is it the date you agreed upon with Guimen Youzi?" Ye Lu guessed. After saying that, Ye Lu thought about it carefully again and was the first to overturn his initial guess, with a puzzled tone.
This seems to make sense. After all, they are leaving anyway, so there seems to be nothing wrong in giving Chongshan Tengman some good things before they leave.
"fart."
"The agreed time is more than this. How can my branches be so cheap?" Chongshan Ivy sneered. If his branches could only be exchanged for a few small snakes for this period of time, Guimen Youzi would not have planned for so long. Chongshan Ivy was too lazy to let the kid continue to guess, and directly revealed the answer: "They are going to shed their skin, so of course they have to leave."
"Shedding skin?" Ye Lu's eyes lit up. No one knew better than him what shedding skin meant. For example, strange food, strange food, and more strange food. The strange food of the Guimen Youzi that Ye Lu had been thinking about was right before his eyes.
How could Ye Lu not be fascinated by the real top-level strange food in this world?
"When?" Ye Lu asked about the time immediately. The serpent man was shedding his skin, and he also wanted to go and see what the difference was between the shed skin of a serpent man and that of a real snake.
He didn't even need to look at the mountain vines to know what the little kid was doing. He interrupted his fantasy directly: "What are you imagining? Guimen Youzi will never let you go over to see it."
The heavy mountain vines looked at Ye Lu with a mocking attitude.
By the way, in order to express the true meaning of this attitude, he specially came out from the roots of the tree so that Ye Lu could see it clearly.
The light brown strange plant looked it up and down, snorted coldly and said: "It was impossible to hatch snake eggs, and it is even more impossible to shed skin now."
"Don't even mention you. Qingsong can't do that either, unless it wants to make a mortal enemy of Guimen Youzi."
Ye Lu understood instantly. Of course he understood why Guimen Youzi was doing this, and he could understand and respect him. He did not interfere with Guimen Youzi's hatching of snake eggs in the first place, so naturally he would not interfere with his shedding of skin now.
It is understandable that the ghost is so greedy. When beloved children reach a critical period, everyone will have a period of paranoia.
"...What about Huang Zhongli?" Ye Lu naturally thought of Chong Shan's other victim. Huang Zhongli's personality was not much better than Chong Shan's. Although Huang Zhongli usually disguised himself very well, Ye Lu had seen the adult version of Chong Shan's vines, so it was naturally impossible for him to be fooled by the young version of Huang Zhongli.
"Hmph." The heavy mountain vine snorted coldly and said lightly: "Don't worry, it won't do anything."
"It is much smarter than the stones of your lineage. It knows when to cause trouble and when to be quiet."
"Just stay quietly halfway up the mountain for the time being." The heavy mountain vines instructed Ye Lu: "With my vines, it shouldn't be a problem for those weird snake people to shed their skins. You just need to stay there. After you shed your skins, the weird men will naturally call you over."
"Then I can get the strange food?" Ye Lu raised his eyebrows.
"There is still one more step!" Chongshan Ivy said with a sigh, "The Guimen expert will teach you when the time comes."
"Shut up and stop asking."
"..." Ye Lu said nothing, but blinked his eyes and looked at the heavy mountain vines.
The consciousness of the strange plant on the mountain vine was a little irritable, but it couldn't just ignore it. It said impatiently: "You say!"
"One last question—"
"Do you know how to use that trick food? Is it edible?"
