Chapter 251 Ye Lu's Thoughts Ye Lu choked, it's true, Hui...
Ye Lu choked. Is this really true? Huitao was different from other strange plants from the moment it was born from spiritual consciousness.
"Then should I pick it?" Ye Lu asked tentatively.
"Hurry up." Hui Tao said eagerly: "After you pick them, I will practice, but you must remember to give me more..."
"I'll give you some more strange flesh and blood, preferably the head of a ferocious beast, right? I remember it all!" Before Hui Tao finished her words, Ye Lu quickly said everything she wanted to say.
"See?" Ye Lu sighed, pointed at the red-haired young man next to him, and said, "Wait until he finishes eating your weird food, then you can ask him to kill a few hundred weirds for you, and only eat their heads without eating their meat."
"Really?" Hui Tao became even more interested. It really only likes to eat brains. But for some reason, A Lu always said that eating only weird heads was not nutritious enough. He said that to it every day. Not only that, he also used some means. Sometimes he said that he could not cure it, but he would invite the expressionless two-legged beast at the foot of the mountain to come up.
Hui Tao was a little afraid of the two-legged beast. Every time it wanted to do something, the two-legged beast would discover it in the first time and counter it. It was also because of the two-legged beast that she couldn't be picky about food, so her provider would always feed her a whole monster.
"Of course!" Ye Lu said without hesitation.
"Then pick them quickly!" Huitao was even more willing.
Well, it’s obvious at first glance that this person is the one who really doesn’t care about these peaches.
At Hui Tao's urging, Ye Lu first tentatively picked a few fruits, and first picked one slowly. Then, seeing that Hui Tao didn't move at all and that she had controlled the branches very well, Ye Lu was sure that Hui Tao really wanted to finish quickly, so he immediately sped up.
Seeing that their lord was fine, the other medicine-pounding rabbits also joined in picking fruits.
Ye Lu looked at the Hui Tao fruit in his hand. Now, the Hui Tao was truly ripe, and each one looked like a silver ball of hair. Compared to the immature Hui Tao, the silver hairs on the skin of the ripe Hui Tao turned into short hairs, and the shape was also a bit strange, becoming oval instead of heart-shaped. This was why Ye Lu thought they were small balls of hair.
"My lord, there are twelve in total." After Xiaoyao and all the medicine rabbits had picked the fruits, they counted the number and came forward to report to Ye Lu.
Ye Luze already knew how many fruits Hui Tao had. Although Hui Tao had previously guessed that it had been penetrated by the power of the Wood Ancestor since the seed stage and might have mutated a little, at present, the number of fruits should not have mutated at all and it was still twelve.
"Hmm... twelve. According to Huitao, four pieces make up one portion?" Ye Lu had already taken out wooden boxes to pack the picked Huitao. There were three wooden boxes, four pieces in one box. His tone was a little hesitant when he spoke.
"It should be?" Ye Lu closed his eyes and sensed the strange power fluctuations in the wooden box, and said with certainty.
As for Hui Tao?
As soon as all the peaches on the tree crown had been picked, the spirit of this strange plant could not wait to return to its main body at the root of the tree to sleep, even more ruthless than Ye Lu.
Looking at Ye Lu, he couldn't help but be a little suspicious. If this strange food wasn't picked by him personally, and it wasn't genuine, he would have thought he was helping Hui Tao get rid of the bugs.
But it’s also good this way, when the strange food matures, it will save Chongshan a lot of trouble.
Ye Lu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this clever strange plant is really different, not only does it have a flexible brain, but it can also cooperate with the provider and get benefits for itself.
"Well done." Ye Lu also remembered that the big medicine rabbits contributed a lot in the whole process, especially during the period when the peaches were bearing fruit. The medicine rabbit clan even divided some of the rabbits to live permanently on Shuifu Mountain. Even the three little silver-haired balls were left with one on Shuifu Mountain. Ye Lu saw all of this.
"I asked the caravan to send over a batch of strange food that you can use. You can eat it when you go back. It's a reward for your busy work during this period of time." Ye Lu said gently to the big medicine rabbit who was in the lead.
When Xiaoyao heard the lord praising him, he couldn't help but prick up his ears, especially when the lord was going to reward them with a tricky food. The hair all over his body stood up, making him look even more fluffy at first glance.
The whole thing looked like a big ball of hair, and this big ball of hair was gesturing towards Ye Lu excitedly.
"It's okay, this is what you deserve." Ye Lu knew what this big rabbit was thinking without even connecting with Xiao Yao's spiritual sense, and continued to comfort him calmly, it was just a few thousand strange beads, it was okay, he could afford it, the currently very wealthy and powerful Lord Chongshan thought calmly.
Ye Lu is really rich now. Not long ago, when Helan came out of seclusion, he gave him a blood-grudge-level strange food as a gift for his coming out, which was worth nearly 20,000 strange beads. This made Helan a little nervous at the time, fearing that something might happen to him. After the ghost scholar repeatedly assured him that they, the Taoist priests, had plenty of money, Helan accepted the food with doubts.
The medicine-pounding rabbits were even happier after being recognized.
Although they enjoyed working in the mountains and the laurel tree was very kind to them and they felt comfortable staying near the laurel tree, it was a whole new experience to have their efforts recognized by the lord.
Many big rabbits speeded up their work, loosening the soil, adding fertilizer, watering, and removing old leaves. They worked smoothly and prepared to return to their nests to enjoy the weird food rewarded by the lord.
Ye Lu and Huo Gui were the only two people left in Huitao Garden.
Ye Lu glanced at the wooden boxes in his hand, paused, took out one of the wooden boxes containing the four most powerful peaches, and handed it to the Fire Ghost.
"for you."
The Fire Ghost was stunned and subconsciously took the wooden box given by Ye Lu.
"What do you want?"
"You break through first. When you succeed, if you are willing, just give me a portion of your Flame Sheep Peach." Ye Lu said with a smile, and he seemed to be in a much better mood.
Ye Lu was not worried at all about such a big man running away. This happened in his territory, and he escaped without anyone noticing. He and the ghost scholar should stop being tricksters and just focus on farming. If worst comes to worst, even if he ran away, the monk can escape but the temple cannot. So he would go find Yang Ling.
Ye Lu believed that Yang Ling would be eager to take the order and would drag him to the Fire Ghost Mountains with great fanfare to collect the debt.
Besides, Ye Lu actually saw more. Apart from the friendship of this powerful leader, he wanted more, such as the strange food of the strange plant that accompanied the fire ghost leader.
According to the fact that every time Ye Lucong Yang Ling talked about the Fire Ghost Leader, he would definitely talk about his companion strange plant, the effect of this strange plant is very powerful.
The kind of strong that is still strong even when damaged.
Ye Lu likes the powerful strange food the most. It would be even better if he could exchange the wisdom peach for the flame sheep peach. Thinking of this, Ye Lu naturally became more gentle in his attitude towards the fire ghost leader.
"Do you want me to find you a place to retreat?" Ye Lu said very considerately. He Village has everything. The cave where the swordsman had retreated before was not demolished by the people of He Village. They just cleaned it up. Now that the Fire Ghost has passed by, it is just the right place for him to move in.
"...Thank you!" The Fire Ghost didn't know how many times he had said thank you. He only remembered that he had received a lot of help and was grateful in his heart. He could only express his gratitude with words.
"It's okay." Ye Lu smiled and waved his hand: "It's just a matter of convenience."
"By the way, if you take Hui Tao, you don't need to remove the hair on the skin, just take it directly, and then eat the peach pit at the end. If you remove the silver hair on the outside, you don't need to eat the peach pit."
The layer of silver fuzz on the outside of the peach is poisonous. Only the silver fuzz on the fruit is poisonous. The hairs on other branches and trunks are not poisonous. However, strange foods have always been in conflict with each other. These fuzzes are not very poisonous. Just remember to swallow the core at the end.
On the contrary, this can bring many benefits.
As Ye Lu spoke, he led the fire ghost leader down the mountain. Then he watched the fire ghost enter the famous cave. He saw with his own eyes that the stones beside the cave blocked the entrance, and then he looked away.
Ye Lu exchanged a glance with his uncle He Si who was standing beside him.
Ye Lu blinked his eyes, shrugged, and said in a relaxed tone: "See, I told you it's okay, Fourth Uncle, you're just too worried."
"Good luck."
"How is my aunt? She hasn't come back yet?" When Ye Lu heard this, he knew that Uncle He Si was in a good mood. Uncle He Si came here specifically to watch the fire ghost. Although he knew that the leader of the fire ghost had no ill intentions, He Si, who was cautious by nature, never gambled on human nature.
The fact was that nothing was wrong, and Uncle He Si secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Ever since Helan successfully broke through in seclusion, he naturally went to fight with many people, and he has been doing so for quite some time.
"I'm back, and I'm consolidating my cultivation. It looks like I've gained a lot." Uncle He Si knew what his nephew was worried about, and said it concisely.
"I will send someone to watch over this cave during this period of time, and notify you immediately if there is any accident." Uncle He Si said.
"It's okay. I'll ask Ah Gui to keep an eye on it when the time comes." Ye Lu waved his hand and turned to go to the ancestral hall in the center.
The fire ghost in the cave looked at the wooden box in front of him with a nervous mood.
There are four fluffy little peaches placed in the center of the wooden box, each of which exudes a faint aura of strange power. Although they are only at the Qingyou level, in the eyes of the Fire Ghost, these auras of strange power are more important than the strange food at the Xueyuan level.
The Fire Ghost also remembered the words that Lord Chongshan told him before he left.
Silver velvet and peach kernel should be taken together.
The Fire Ghost picked up a peach and put it in his mouth. The fluff melted in his mouth and was very sweet, like a piece of wispy sugar. The flesh that followed was very crisp and juicy, which slightly diluted the excessive sweetness of the fluff.
The last peach pit was very bitter, so bitter that the root of Fire Ghost's tongue went numb. He almost spit out the first bite, but reason told him that these peaches were precious.
If it weren't for these peach pits, the fuzz and the flesh alone would have ranked among the top few delicious peaches. The Fire Ghost muttered to himself as he swallowed the peach pits reluctantly.
The fire ghost used his inner mumbling to hide his nervousness. He couldn't help but clench his hands and felt the wetness in his palms.
Next comes the more important thing.
After taking four wisdom peaches in succession, the Fire Ghost's mind became clearer and clearer. In his mind, he slowly used his spiritual consciousness to call upon his companion strange plant.
"Flame, flame, wake up!"
The Fire Ghost calls upon the shadow within his own gift.
The continuous calls of the fire ghost finally awakened the shadow. A childish voice appeared from the tall tree shadows, and it seemed very confused: "Ah ghost?"
"Flame, you finally woke up!" Seeing Flame Sheep Peach reply to him, the Fire Ghost couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Then he couldn't wait to say: "Quick, see how these strange powers make you feel?"
