Chapter 272: The unexpected birth of Wu Tao "Taiqing Commercial Bank, can't you come...
"Taiqing Trading Company, are you coming?" When Yang Ling saw Zhu Hui, he knew that he didn't need to tell Lord Chongshan. In fact, he also made an invitation to Zhu Hui directly.
Zhu Hui wanted to come in the first place. Think about it, how many people are there in Taiqing Commercial Bank now? Each of them represents a huge background. Only a fool would let go of such a huge benefit. When Zhu Hui heard Yang Ling's words, he smiled and said with a smile: "Come on, come on."
As for the fact that they didn't invite him at the beginning, seeing Lord Chongshan's guilty silence, Zhu Hui guessed that things might really be as Yang Ling said. They had originally planned to invite him, but he found out about it in advance.
If that's the case, Zhu Hui will just pretend to ignore it.
Zhu Hui happily agreed. Look? Look? How thoughtful he is.
I hope Lord Chongshan will give more strange food next time. The strange food these times were all good stuff, but he could only watch and not take it, which was too uncomfortable.
Ye Lu just felt that Zhu Hui's current expression was unbearable to look at. As for other things, he had not thought about them yet. Considering that he was in the wrong, he remained silent.
Zhu Hui and Yang Ling did not stay in Chongshan for too long. They were both very busy people. They knew that they would join the Taiqing Chamber of Commerce, and they all had their own things to do afterwards. They came to Chongshan just to take a break from their busy schedule, and soon said goodbye.
Ye Lu watched the two people leave.
Ye Lu was still halfway up the mountain. He had not rested for long when the ghost scholar came up the mountain with a serious look on his face.
What kind of weather is today? Ye Lu saw the ghost scholar's expression and silently looked up at the sky. It was very good, no different from usual. Then why was it so unlucky today?
"What's wrong?" Ye Lu asked the ghost scholar.
"Did you know that the black peach has bred another seed?" The ghost scholar saw Brother Lu sitting next to the stone table, and then saw two tea cups on the stone table. He knew in an instant that someone had just come. There were only a few people who could enter the mountains. The ghost scholar quickly guessed the candidates. It seemed that the two people had left.
The ghost scholar sat on the stone table and mercilessly pushed the other two people's teacups aside. He poured himself a cup of tea while looking at Ye Lu, waiting for Lu Ge's next words.
Ye Lu was stunned and said, "Isn't Wu Tao in hibernation?"
After hearing what the ghost scholar said, Ye Lu thought about it again and again in his mind for a moment to confirm that he did not let the big rabbits make the black peach pregnant, and he himself did not do it. The black peach had failed to breed not long ago and was currently dormant. Chongshan was not short of strange plants now, so how could he force the black peach to breed new seeds?
Wu Tao is the only mother tree in Chongshan, and Ye Lu is not a fool. It is better to let Wu Tao accumulate strange power again to prepare for the next pregnancy.
What do you think? Now is not the right time.
The ghost scholar frowned even more tightly, and he said helplessly: "I just found out about this when I just went to Shuifu Mountain. I thought that Brother Lu had other plans halfway." The next second, the ghost scholar quickly overturned this idea. Apart from anything else, his Brother Lu would never hide anything from them. If there really was a change, how could he not tell them?
It's impossible for the big rabbits either. The big rabbits never interfere in such matters, and even if they do, it is with their permission.
"Did you ask?" Ye Lu also thought of this. The black peach seed was unexpected and no one knew how it appeared. He looked up and asked the ghost scholar.
It is normal for the Ghost Scholar to go to Shuifu Mountain. After all, Shuifu Mountain is nominally the Ghost Scholar's territory. Now, some people go to the back mountain to control him every day. The patrolling has long been handed over to the Ghost Scholar who has spiritual functions. You can't let the Son of Taishan do these things. The Ghost Scholar thinks it would be a good idea for his brother Lu to look for strange plants more often.
"Wu Tao refused to answer." The ghost scholar shook his head and said, "I came to find you."
Ye Lu was a little anxious to begin with, and his frown didn't relax when he heard the ghost scholar's words. After a moment, he slowly let go. Wu Tao was originally very vigilant, and was still accustomed to the ancient customs. He seldom communicated with outsiders. Normally, if he woke up, he could still talk to the ghost scholar. Once he fell asleep, only Ye Lu could wake him up.
"Come with me to see." Ye Lu became a little anxious when he thought of this. After the ghost scholar finished the tea in the cup, he stood up and said in a low voice.
The ghost scholar understood what Ye Lu was thinking. He drank the tea in the cup in two or three gulps, then put the cup down and said, "Let's go and have a look first."
The two of them went up Shuifu Mountain one after the other.
When Ye Lu reached the top of the mountain, he saw the big rabbits surrounding the Wutao Garden. They were a large group of snow-white and furry rabbits. It was hard not to see them.
The big furry ball raised its head after sensing a familiar breath coming up the mountain, just in time to reveal its true identity. It was the leader of the medicine-pounding rabbits - Xiaoyao.
The alert level of Wu Taoyuan is very high in the mountains, and it is generally the top priority for guarding. In addition to daily patrols, the medicine-pounding rabbits will also send additional manpower. These big rabbits are good fighters among the medicine-pounding rabbits.
"Xiao Yao." Ye Lu approached the garden gate and touched the excited big white-haired ball with his spiritual consciousness.
The white fluffy ball was glittering in the sun. Seeing the Lord, the big rabbit was excited. It gestured with its hands and feet, trying to express its thoughts: "No... pregnancy!"
The big rabbits wanted to tell the lord that they really did not disobey the lord's orders and secretly let Wu Tao grow seeds. Rather, when they saw that Wu Tao had seeds, they were very frightened and their fur all stood up.
Ye Lu had expected this, and he tried to appease the big rabbit with his spiritual consciousness until he felt the big rabbit slowly calm down in his spiritual consciousness. Then, Ye Lu withdrew his spiritual consciousness and said, "I know, I came here to see what's going on."
After Ye Lu finished speaking, he took the lead and entered the garden, approaching the black peach in the center.
The black peach still has that fairy-like appearance, with black lines in the green color, which makes it look more wild. The dark green leaves are lush and shiny.
Ye Lu came to the black peach tree but couldn't find the growing fruit for a long time. After a long while, he finally saw a small fruit the size of a fingernail among the branches behind the trunk with his own eyes.
Seeing this, Ye Lu had a guess as to why the black peach was not discovered when it was conceiving seeds. Could it be that the location was too coincidental when it was conceived and no one noticed it?
Isn't this too much of a coincidence?
Ye Lu coughed lightly and quickly suppressed the guess in his heart. He called Wu Tao: "Wu Tao, wake up, wake up."
Wu Tao, who was originally sleeping, was awakened by Ye Lu's voice. His consciousness floated out from the tree roots and he looked at Ye Lu in confusion: "Alu, what's wrong?"
"Wupao, do you know what's going on with the fruit on your branch?" Ye Lu felt that it would be most reliable to ask the tree in question. Isn't it clear how the fruit was successfully conceived?
Wu Tao's consciousness was a little angry at first. It did not sleep well at all this time. It wanted to find a place to relax, but when it saw Ye Lu, it was about to complain. Before it could say anything, it heard a long string of words from Ye Lu.
Wu Tao followed Ye Lu's gaze and, as expected, she sensed a small fruit on her branch. Wu Tao was also puzzled: "Fruit? No wonder I didn't sleep well this time."
The Wutao Divine Consciousness shook its head, and then it wanted to answer Ye Lu's question, but it was stuck for a moment: "I don't know either."
Wu Tao tried desperately to recall when she felt unwell, and answered slowly, "Well? About half a month ago."
"How did this fruit appear, A'lu? Did you let me bear fruit?" Wu Tao herself was a little surprised and asked Ye Lu.
Well, the tree in question also looked confused.
Ye Lu said helplessly: "You are already asleep, how can I let you conceive a seed?"
"Half a month ago, half a month ago, it seemed that many trees in our mountains were in bloom." After hearing Wu Tao's words, the ghost scholar pondered for a moment and spoke.
The little medicine god said slowly: "Father tree... flower bud... no!!"
Xiaoyao meant that the flower buds of the father trees on the two mountains had not bloomed yet, so they started picking them all.
"An outside tree?" Ye Lu thought solemnly. He believed that the medicine rabbits really started to remove the flower buds of the father tree. He probably didn't expect that there were other trees outside.
Ye Lu took another look at the strange and hidden location where the black peach was nurturing the fruit, and his expression became even stranger. What kind of luck was this? Ah.
There is no other reason, this time it might really be a coincidence.
Ye Lu had said before that Wu Tao was once a peach tree that was worshipped. It is also a totem tree of a tribe. Customs have been preserved from ancient times to the present day. For example, no one is allowed to scan its body with spiritual consciousness.
This would make Wu Tao instinctively unhappy and feel offended, which would cause her to attack with her spiritual consciousness at the very least, or even attack directly with her body at the worst.
Ye Lu has told this point many times to the big rabbits. The strength of the Medicine Rabbit clan is more auxiliary. The entire clan combined is not enough for Wu Tao to defeat in one go. However, the location of the peach blossom that Wu Tao opened this time was really tricky.
The big rabbits cannot use their spiritual sense and can only use their eyesight, so naturally they did not see the flowers hidden behind the tree trunk.
Even with Ye Lu's strength, he would still have to spend a lot of time to find the fruit, and he couldn't use this to embarrass the big rabbits.
Ye Lu was speechless for a moment. Normally, this kind of neglected peach blossom should not even be able to pollinate. Unexpectedly, it actually succeeded in pollination.
"…………" Ye Lu suppressed other thoughts in his heart. Pollination was so easy that it was hard for Ye Lu not to think of the times when they had failed in pollination. Every time they pollinated dozens of flowers, only one or two were successful, and sometimes all failed. Compared to this time, how could Ye Lu not feel complicated.
"The father tree outside?" This was Ye Lu's first thought.
Wu Tao shook her head: "It's not the father tree."
"This fruit doesn't have the same feeling of successful pollination as the previous one from its father tree." Wu Tao carefully felt the fruit on the branch and expressed his feelings earnestly.
Ye Lu also felt the small fruit and was silent for a moment. Indeed, there was no strange power.
Thinking about it this way, there are indeed quite a few wild peach trees in the back mountain. Because Ye Lu thought that if other father trees or something like that might appear, for no reason, Ye Lu has always been confident in his luck, so he did not let his men eradicate the wild peach forest.
I guess it was the pollen from the wild peach forest.
The probability of an ordinary wild peach tree and a black peach being bred successfully should have been even smaller, but unexpectedly, it really worked.
"Should we pick this fruit?" The ghost scholar also looked at the small green fruit for a long time. No matter how we looked at it, it looked ordinary and had no magical power. However, because this series of events was too unexpected, he was a little hesitant to ask.
"No." Wu Tao's decisive reaction was unexpected.
Ye Lu then said, "No need to pick them. I also want to see what kind of seeds the wild peach tree can produce."
Ye Lu even thought that no matter whether the seeds this time had strange powers or not, as long as they were not zombie fruits, he would plant them carefully and see what the situation was.
Wu Tao confidently expressed his thoughts: "This fruit is a bit strange, I also want to take a closer look at it." Wu Tao couldn't help but become interested in the fruit which had no strange power at all.
Ye Lu pondered for a moment, then asked Wu Tao: "How is the fruit developing? Is it powerful enough?"
"Give me more strange beads and blood food." Wu Tao said truthfully: "It really has too little strange power. It would be better if there were remains."
"I will ask Xiaoyao and the others to prepare it." Ye Lu said calmly.
