Red Boy, who was hiding outside, was taken aback. Following that, he scratched his head and walked out. He subconsciously wanted to nod. Although Fangzheng was an unlucky fool, he really wished to have more freedom. If he could poison the darn baldy to death, it would naturally be an extremely good thing. However, when he saw Squirrel, Lone Wolf, and Monkey's innocent gazes, Red Boy realized that he could not bring himself to say the words he was about to say!
Red Boy could not help but have a series of scenes flash through his mind. The stingy pine tree giving him pine nuts; the scene of him secretly eating Monkey's bamboo shoots only to be rewarded with a laugh; the scene of Lone Wolf, who had always been at odds with him, running outside while carrying him when he was in a bad mood. In the end, he stuck out his tongue in exhaustion and foamed at the mouth …
At that moment, Fangzheng asked again, "Jingxin, are you willing to let them share your mushroom soup with me?"
Red Boy turned agape and finally shook his head. "This is my way of showing filial piety to Master. It would be pointless if others drank it. Of course, if Senior Brothers want to drink it, I can pluck some more for them. "
"Really?" the innocent Squirrel immediately exclaimed in excitement.
Monkey laughed out loud. "Junior Brother, since you say so, I'll bear with it a little longer."
Lone Wolf shook his head and said as though he was ungrateful, "If you don't want to eat it, so be it. Why are you finding excuses? However, I can wait. When the time comes, I can force myself to drink a mouthful or two. I'll give you some face. "
When Red Boy heard that, he heaved a sigh of relief and looked at Fangzheng.
Fangzheng chuckled. "In that case, I won't stand on ceremony." With that said, he sat there drinking the mushroom soup and eating the mushrooms.
Red Boy stood by the door and watched this scene. His eyes shimmered as though he was considering something or struggling with something. However, he ultimately did not say a word to stop Fangzheng.
The pot was not considered much, so Fangzheng could handle it alone. He finished it all, leaving not a drop of soup behind! After he was done, Fangzheng patted his tummy. "Jingxin, accompany me out for a walk."
With that said, Fangzheng got up and walked out. Red Boy wore a look of surprise. He was a demon king, so he naturally knew what were poisonous mushrooms and what weren't. The darn baldy appeared fine with such a pot of poisonous mushrooms! How was that possible? Could it be that the poisonous mushrooms in this world were all so gentle? The effects of the poison were slow?
Regardless of what Red Boy was thinking, he obediently followed Fangzheng. Behind him, Monkey bitterly cleared the leftovers on the table. He sighed and said, "Master sure is petty. Can't he leave some for us? Such a fragrant mushroom soup, but I didn't even get to drink anything. Sigh … I even licked the plate, sigh … "
Squirrel and Lone Wolf nodded in agreement! They had waited for so long and hadn't eaten anything. In the end, they didn't even get a sip of soup. They were unhappy!
However, there was someone who was even more unhappy!
As he followed behind Fangzheng, Red Boy kept counting inwardly as he lamented, "What's going on? Didn't the internet say that eating a poisonous mushroom would result in instant death? Why was this bald bastard still fine? Could it be that the darn baldy knew that it was poisoned and neutralized it? That can't be … He didn't even check with his cell phone … "Red Boy only believed that Fangzheng wasn't erudite and would first do a search whenever he encountered a problem. Then, he would use a textbook to brag and fool his silly senior brothers.
Little did he know that although much of Fangzheng's knowledge came from the internet, Fangzheng was a person who liked to think and memorize. He was a person who liked to read widely! Furthermore, with the various auxiliary functions of the System's Dharma treasures, he had long reached the point of having a photographic memory. Having persisted in reading books on the internet for so long, he was no longer the ignorant youth of the past. He would only read from a textbook when he truly did not understand. However, he really knew most of the basic concepts!
As he followed behind Fangzheng, Red Boy pretended that Fangzheng didn't know about the poisonous mushrooms. He pretended to be relaxed as he whistled and followed behind. At the same time, he was puzzled. "Why hasn't this darn baldy been poisoned?"
However, Fangzheng remained fine. The duo descended the mountain and headed for Mt. Tongtian. Fangzheng did not say a word all the way up the mountain.
Red Boy felt a little guilty as he thought to himself, "Why did this darn baldy bring me here?"
At that moment, Fangzheng stopped and pointed ahead. "My dear disciple, there are a few mushrooms on the fallen tree ahead. Go and pick them up."
Red Boy was taken aback as he asked, "Master, you know mushrooms?"
Fangzheng smiled. "This is the Jade Emperor Mushroom, also known as the Linden Mushroom. Some people call it the Round Mushroom. It's a type of mushroom with a lateral receptacle. It looks like a tiny fan. It typically grows on the branches of trees that have been chopped down in forests. The tree ahead is the Linden Tree. That mushroom is the Jade Emperor Mushroom. "
Red Boy's heart palpitated when he heard that. However, he did not say a word as he obediently plucked the mushrooms.
Fangzheng did not say a word as he continued walking forward. After walking a short distance, he suddenly pointed to a tree and said, "My dear disciple, go and pick that mushroom."
"Master, what mushroom is this?" Red Boy felt guilty as he deliberately tested if Fangzheng really knew mushrooms.
Fangzheng smiled. "This is the Monkey Head Mushroom, one of the three major mushrooms in the northeast. This kind of mushroom typically grows at the roots of withered trees. As it looks like a monkey's head, it's called the Monkey Head Mushroom. Although Monkey Head Mushrooms also grow in the south, in terms of nutritional value, the Monkey Head Mushroom in the northeast is superior. The two are completely incomparable. Therefore, the northeast is also known as the land of Monkey Head Mushrooms! This Monkey Head Mushroom is good stuff. It's rich in nutrients. Its most prominent effect is to nourish the stomach. It has very good effects and curative effects on stomach diseases, the digestive tract, and the duodenum. It's especially beneficial to the stomach, intestines, spleen, and kidneys. Furthermore, it can prevent cancer.
This is definitely good stuff. "
Red Boy's heart palpitated when he heard that. How did the darn baldy understand mushrooms so well? He had clearly not checked the information on his cell phone, right?
Although Red Boy was alarmed, he did not show it on his face. He obediently went over to pluck the Monkey Head Mushroom. Just as he was about to return …
He heard Fangzheng say, "Monkey Head Mushrooms have a special characteristic. They grow symmetrically. If you can find one under this withered tree, then there must be another one on the tree opposite it. Jingxin, go take a look. "
Red Boy looked suspiciously at Fangzheng before walking over. Indeed, he found another Monkey Head Mushroom on the opposite tree!
At that moment, Red Boy finally understood that the darn baldy in front of him was not completely ignorant about mushrooms. On the contrary, he was very proficient in them!
With this in mind, Red Boy fell silent. He put away the mushroom and silently stood behind Fangzheng.
