532 Transaction with the Queen Bee
532
Seeing this group of bees targeting her master, Jinzi rushed over and called out to the little bees. The amethyst bees retreated a little, but still hesitated and refused to leave.
Feng Ming didn't want to provoke this group of bees, but with them around, he couldn't attack the spiritual herbs, let alone rob the amethyst honey.
Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo looked at each other, and the two reached a consensus. They wanted to find a way to lead these amethyst bees into the formation and temporarily trap them with the formation for a while.
After picking the spiritual herbs and leaving this space, they would set them free.
The two of them moved very quickly. In a blink of an eye, Bai Qiaomo had set up a trap array, and integrated a space array to isolate the information transmission between bees, so as to prevent another group of bees from coming after the current group of bees was trapped.
After the trap array was set up, Feng Ming sent a message to Jin Zi, who immediately flapped his wings diligently to drive the bees into the trap array.
Feng Ming also placed pills that were attractive to these bees in the trap array, allowing the array to amplify this attraction.
As a result, under the double effect, all the purple crystal bees in this area were trapped in the trap array by the two of them.
Shui Qianming could not help, and Lu Yiheng stood aside and watched. If the two benefactors had no solution, he would come up with his own method.
But it was clear that the benefactor's method was more effective, and it also let Lu Yiheng know the abilities of the two benefactors. One was a pharmacist, and the other was a formation master, and both were very skilled.
Feng Ming urged, "Quick, pick the mature spiritual herbs."
He took the lead and rushed into the place where these spiritual herbs grew. The other three followed closely. The four of them quickly picked the mature plants and preserved them in a proper way.
This method was very effective, so Feng Ming came up with another idea and said, "Why not expand this formation and attract as many bees as possible into the trap formation? Then we will be less disturbed by these bees when we go to other places. If we can lure the queen bee in and trap her, that would be even better."
Bai Qiaomo certainly would not refuse Feng Ming's proposal, so he not only expanded the formation, but also reinforced the trap formation to prevent the purple crystal bees trapped inside from breaking out.
It happened that Bai Qiaomo had obtained a lot of formation materials in the previous three spaces, and now he had a lot of materials, so he upgraded the trap formation to a level that could not be upgraded any further.
This made Lu Yiheng, who was helping him, stunned. This person's talent for formations was terrifyingly high.
Because of his special soul power, Lu Yiheng did not waste his talent in the process of cultivation. Although his specialty was in talismans, he also had some experience in formations. There was a connection between talismans and formations.
Even a genius like him admired this person's level of formations.
After the trap was reinforced, Lu Yiheng also contributed something: "This is the Tianyuan Demon Companion Fruit. It has a great temptation to spiritual insects such as the Purple Crystal Bee. Even the queen bee cannot escape. The effect will be better if it is put into the trap."
Feng Ming said: "Brother Lu, you didn't prepare it specially for this trip into the alien space?"
Lu Yiheng nodded and smiled: "Yes, this spiritual fruit is prepared for the Purple Crystal Bees here."
Feng Ming clapped his hands and cheered: "That's great, with the help of Brother Lu, we can not only collect a lot of spiritual herbs this time, but also get Purple Crystal Honey."
Lu Yiheng thought so too. It was really a pleasure to cooperate with these two.
Bai Qiaomo took the fruit and sent it to the center of the trap. This demon companion fruit looked quite ordinary, and the smell it gave off was not liked by cultivators, but once the smell was amplified, the purple crystal bees in the trap became more excited.
Bai Qiaomo thought to himself that the attraction of this demon companion fruit to purple crystal bees was similar to the attraction of the demon-luring grass to wild beasts.
He had only heard of this thing before, but had never seen it. It was obvious that this kind of special spiritual fruit was not so easy to find.
Feng Ming also thought to himself that Lu Yiheng really cared about his cousin. This Tianyuan demon companion fruit must have been obtained for the cousin who was an alchemist, just to fulfill his wish to enter the spiritual grass space.
It was a pity that Lu Yiheng's affection was discarded like a worn-out shoe, and he disdained everything.
If the cousin knew that he had lost such a great opportunity, would he feel regretful and think that he should not have treated Lu Yiheng in that way?
Feng Ming just thought about it and forgot about it. It was more important to reap the fruits.
The four of them used the formation to hide their figures and auras and waited at the edge of the trap.
The temptation of the companion fruit was indeed great, especially on the basis of the formation, this temptation was magnified many times.
After a while, they heard a buzzing sound, and when they looked up, they saw a large group of purple crystal bees flying in the sky, which looked like a large moving purple cloud.
This large purple cloud finally rushed into the trap without hesitation.
It was easy to get in, but it was hard to get out. Besides, the bees didn't want to get out because they were attracted by the companion fruit. If
they couldn't eat the companion fruit, it would be good to just smell the taste of the companion fruit.
While waiting, purple clouds flew over from time to time, and the four of them were numb. How big was the population of amethyst bees in this spiritual grass space?
Fortunately, Bai Qiaomo and Lu Yiheng worked together, otherwise it would be very difficult for them to break in alone and collect spiritual herbs in so many amethyst bee colonies, let alone steal their honey. After
the densest group of amethyst bees entered the formation, the next amethyst bee colonies were not that big.
After a while, the largest amethyst bee appeared in the four people's field of vision. The demeanor of this amethyst bee was too human.
The four of them could clearly see that this purple crystal bee was very angry, and it could still resist the temptation from the companion fruit.
Feng Ming, who was hiding in the formation and seeing this scene, said, "Could this be the queen bee? This queen bee doesn't know that there is a trap ahead, right? It is very angry that its tribe was tricked into the trap?"
Another purple crystal bee ignored the queen bee's existence, flew past the queen bee and tried to rush into the trap.
The queen bee was so angry that she rushed over and bit the purple crystal bee to death and swallowed it.
Feng Ming took a breath.
Bai Qiaomo said, "Could it be that there are really too many tribes here, and the queen bee can't bear it?"
In this place, the purple crystal bees have no natural enemies, but they are still allowed to expand.
Lu Yiheng nodded: "It is very likely that this queen bee is not easy to deal with. Judging from its strength, it has reached level seven."
That is equivalent to the fusion realm of human cultivators. Of course, it doesn't mean that the four of them have no way to deal with the Queen Bee, but none of them want to rob the Queen Bee's hometown.
Feng Ming said simply: "Why don't we go out and talk to the Queen Bee? We can trade in a friendly way without making things awkward. This way, it will be good for both of us."
Shui Qianming, Li Yiheng: Is this really possible?
Negotiate with the Queen Bee?
Bai Qiaomo was the first to support Feng Ming's idea and walked out of hiding with him.
As soon as their aura was revealed, it was sensed by the Queen Bee, and it flew over with great momentum and made a sharp cry towards the two of them.
This sound could actually stimulate their soul seas to cause turbulence, but both of them were people who practiced the Tianluo Soul Art and had items to protect their soul seas, so they were not greatly affected.
Lu Yiheng was a beat slower, and seeing this, he stopped Shui Qianming from following: "Fellow Daoist Shui, you stay, the queen bee is really powerful."
Shui Qianming stayed obediently. He was the weakest, and going out would only hinder everyone.
Queen Bee: I'm so angry, all its little brothers were killed by the enemy, how could it have such a group of stupid little brothers, I really want to bite these idiots to death.
Jinzi also shouted at the queen bee, she must not lose momentum first, even though she was not yet level seven and was slightly inferior to this bee, but she did not admit that she could not beat a small bee.
Feng Ming tried to communicate: "Queen Bee, how about we talk about it? How about we trade some good stuff with you for some honey?"
Feng Ming took out the pills that San Xiao loved to chew and opened the pill bottle: "How about using these to trade?"
Standing next to him, Lu Yiheng sniffed and then a look of realization flashed in his eyes.
No wonder his injuries recovered so quickly, not only because the healing pill he took was of high grade, a seventh-grade healing pill, but also because it was a top-grade healing pill.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, saying that the true identity of Fellow Daoist Wu Yang was actually...
At this time, Bai Qiaomo looked at Lu Yiheng, smiled and nodded to him.
Smart people dealing with smart people don't need to waste words.
Bai Qiaomo knew that Lu Yiheng had guessed Feng Ming's identity as Qing Yunzi from the top-grade pill, and he only hoped that Lu Yiheng could keep it a secret.
Lu Yiheng responded with a frank smile, meaning that he would naturally not reveal it, because what good would it do him?
Besides, he was able to survive because of these two people, and Lu Yiheng could not do something ungrateful.
Lu Yiheng was also a little excited. He didn't expect that the Grandmaster Qing Yunzi, who was being looked for by everyone including his own sect Tianxin Sect, was right beside him, and he was still so young. This was something that no one outside had expected.
So no matter how he looked, he couldn't find the target, because first of all, the direction was wrong. How many cultivators outside thought that Grandmaster Qing Yunzi was a cultivator in the fusion realm.
Thinking of his previous guesses about the identities of these two people, the corners of Lu Yiheng's mouth twitched slightly. No wonder all the parties couldn't find the master in Youming Continent, because the master was not in Youming Continent at that time.
This talent and this alchemy technique can definitely be called amazing.
At the moment, they are using the top-grade pill to trade with the queen bee. Lu Yiheng also has a feeling of laughing and crying. Do the cultivators in the outside world know about this situation?
He knows one thing, the queen bee can't help but be tempted. Such a deal is very calculated for the queen bee, and it is impossible for it to disagree.
This is something better than the companion fruit.
The frequency of the queen bee flapping its wings really stagnated for a while, and the wind rang with laughter, knowing that once the top-grade pill is used, it will be invincible.
Feng Ming generously threw a bottle of pills to the queen bee, who immediately rushed over and hugged the pill bottle, then poured out a pill and swallowed it whole.
The queen bee held the pill bottle and swayed in the air, looking drunk. It was so delicious, even better than royal jelly.
Feng Ming secretly laughed, the queen bee looked a little silly and cute.
Feng Ming continued to encourage: "Queen Bee, can we trade? I still have a lot of pills like this."
Feng Ming took out another pill bottle and opened the bottle mouth. The aroma of the top-grade pill still wafted out.
At this time, Jin Zi also shouted at the queen bee, because this was the food for them, and it would be better if the queen bee did not agree to the trade.
The queen bee was anxious now, and swallowed the entire bottle of pills into her abdomen, and then rushed towards Feng Ming again.
Feng Ming did not dodge, and let the queen bee snatch the bottle of pills from his hand and swallow it into her abdomen as well.
Feng Ming stretched out a finger and shook it: "Queen Bee, you can't do this, you have to give us honey. By the way, we can also pick some spiritual herbs. Think about it, there are too many spiritual herbs here, which will give birth to so many purple crystal bee colonies. If we pick some spiritual herbs, it can also reduce the reproduction of your colony and reduce the pressure on you, Queen Bee."
Lu Yiheng couldn't help but tilt his head, and couldn't bear to see Feng Ming fooling the queen bee like this.
Obviously, they wanted spiritual herbs, but they said it was for the good of the queen bee to relieve her pressure.
The queen bee flapped its wings, and a strange fluctuation was detected on its body. Feng Ming's soul power received this fluctuation, and he knew that the queen bee was bargaining with him.
The queen bee was not fooled by Feng Ming, and actually asked Feng Ming for pills, and how many pills he had to give before agreeing to let him pick spiritual herbs and give purple crystal honey. Feng Ming
agreed happily.
Queen Bee: I still feel that I was deceived and the price was too low, otherwise why did this thief agree so quickly?
The queen bee was not very happy, but she was a queen bee who kept her promises and had a strong spirit of contract.
Feng Ming directly put a batch of pills in the storage bag and threw it to the queen bee. The queen bee and Feng Ming were very happy. The pills
thrown to the queen bee were all sixth-grade pills. Sixth-grade pills were a bit too much for Feng Ming and his friends, and they were not easy to sell. It was great to use them to trade with the queen bee.
As for the seventh-grade ultimate pill, you have to wait for the right opportunity before you make a move.
The queen bee was very "generous" and led the way for Feng Ming and his four
companions, taking them to collect spiritual herbs. Of course, the purple crystal bees were the ones who were most familiar with the environment here and knew the distribution of spiritual herbs. During this period, the queen bee also cared about its younger brothers. Although they were cut off from the aura and induction, the queen bee still felt that the younger brothers were not dead. This was the reason why the queen bee did not directly fight with Feng Ming and his four companions.
Feng Ming also told the queen bee that its younger brothers were only temporarily trapped in the formation, and they would unlock the formation in a while, so the queen bee did not need to worry.
Maybe the effect of the elixir was too good, and the queen bee liked it too much. In the end, the queen bee "condescended" to lie on Feng Ming's head and commanded him to move forward.
Whenever they came across good spiritual herbs, most of them were picked by Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo. Feng Ming put them away, and Lu Yiheng picked some spiritual fruits that could be taken directly, but didn't want the spiritual herbs.
It would be better for him to give him some elixirs instead of asking for them directly. If he took these spiritual herbs out, he would need to find someone to refine elixirs.
But who out there has the skill of refining medicine better than Master Qing Yunzi? Why should he go far away?
Feng Ming knew that Lu Yiheng had guessed his identity as Master Qing Yunzi, but it didn't matter. As he said, the Master Qing Yunzi alias could disappear at any time.
Shui Qianming only picked some sixth-grade spiritual herbs, and didn't pick too many, so as not to annoy the queen bee.
Because Feng Ming and his party did not cause any serious trouble, the queen bee was also very friendly.
After walking around the entire spiritual herb space, Feng Ming had nearly two hundred seventh-grade spiritual herbs and three eighth-grade spiritual herbs, and also harvested some precious spiritual herb seeds. The harvest was very rich.
Finally, there was amethyst honey. This honey, taken directly, can also bring abundant and pure energy to the cultivator, and can play a role in replenishing the cultivator's energy.
Higher-quality honey can also be used as medicine. Feng Ming has two pill recipes that use amethyst honey, and a detoxification recipe that uses royal jelly as the main medicine.
Feng Ming started bargaining with the queen bee again. He did not go to her hive with her, but waited outside for her to deliver the honey.
The queen bee carried the honey six or seven times, and her flight became a little unstable. Shui Qianming and Lu Yiheng each received a bottle of honey, which was not a small amount.
Feng Ming did not kill her too much, because he had other plans. Finally, he took out the seventh-grade pill and said, "I want the honey and royal jelly brewed by the queen bee."
The queen bee wanted to taunt Feng Ming at first, saying that he was too greedy. As a result, as soon as the seventh-grade pill came out, the queen bee excitedly sent a message to Feng Ming, saying that this idiot had a better pill in his hand, why didn't he take it out earlier.
Feng Ming thought to himself, if he took it out earlier, would the queen bee still be willing to give him so many things? It would be basically impossible to exchange royal jelly from the queen bee then.
But now, after asking for two bottles of seventh-grade pills, the queen bee finally went back again. When she came back, she only brought a bottle of royal honey and royal jelly.
This time, Shui Qianming and Lu Yiheng did not want them, because they were all exchanged by Feng Ming with his own pills. Besides, without Feng Ming, they could not even exchange other honey.
Feng Ming and his four companions returned to the trap array with the queen bee. In front of the queen bee, Bai Qiaomo dismantled the trap array.
The companion fruit was still in the base of the array. Seeing this, the queen bee rushed over and swallowed it in one gulp, storing it in its abdomen.
The swarm of bees was buzzing, covering the sky and the ground. Even if a cultivator in the fusion realm ran in, he would probably be gnawed to death by these bees.
Although the queen bee was suppressing them, Feng Ming and his three companions did not dare to stay any longer, as there were too many purple crystal bees.
They found a space connection point, and no matter which space they were connected to, they hurriedly left as if they were escaping from a torn crack.
Before leaving, Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo made some small moves in this space.
I don't know if Lu Yiheng noticed it, but it doesn't matter if he noticed it, they did it without error.
The two of them wanted to take the entire spiritual herb space into their pockets. By then, the queen bee would not be theirs, and the honey and royal jelly brewed by the bee colony would be available to them continuously.
Of course, this was just the idea of the two of them, and whether it would succeed would depend on the specific situation and the results of the operation.
