Zhao Hai turned his head to Cai Wanpeng and the others and said, "I don't know how Plant Masters live in the Wen Ji Continent. In the Soldier Spirit Continent, Plant Masters rely on themselves to earn money to support themselves. This is because Plant Master cultivation is very costly. We need to observe plants, take notes, buy better cultivation methods, learn martial skills, and live. But all of these require money. Plant Masters who don't have a future don't have it easy. Sometimes, they can't even become teachers to support themselves. Plant Masters don't dare to relax because they need to spend a lot of time in the wild."
At this point, Zhao Hai let out a long breath, then he continued, "In this village, Plant Masters would inquire if there's any problem that needs to be solved. If there's a need, then they would help and receive a certain amount of remuneration. In the Soldier Spirit Continent, unless it's a family's own Plant Master, there's no free service for Plant Masters. It's just like how you don't lack money, but you still need to receive money. This is because if you don't receive money, then other Plant Masters who receive money would be spurned. However, just because you don't lack money doesn't mean that other Plant Masters don't lack money. In the end, because of your kindness, other Plant Masters would lose their livelihood. Because of this, there's no free service for Plant Masters. As long as you work, then you must receive remuneration, this is how it should be."
This is something that should be done. "Cai Wanpeng and the others quietly listened to Zhao Hai. Nobody spoke. Zhao Hai didn't know what the Plant Masters of the Wen Ji Continent would do in the future, but they were very clear. Most of the Plant Masters of the Wen Ji Continent would be supported by several academies. They only have one job, which is to deal with any plant diseases that occur in the continent. And the monthly salary that they receive, under normal circumstances, would be enough to feed their family.
If what Zhao Hai said was true, then Plant Masters would have a way out in the future. Especially after learning how to make mutated seeds and how to exchange energy with plants, the strength of Plant Masters would certainly increase. But for Plant Masters, this wasn't necessarily a good thing.
After thinking about this, Cai Wanpeng couldn't help but sigh. Then he turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Mister, I want to know if there will be people suppressing Plant Masters in the Soldier Spirit Continent."
Zhao Hai looked at Cai Wanpeng's expression and smiled faintly, "You don't need to worry about this. In the Weapon Spirit Continent, Plant Masters have their own Plant Master Association. And this association is the home of all Plant Masters. If a country dares to suppress a Plant Master, then the Plant Master Association would come forward. They wouldn't allow any Plant Master to enter that country, nor would they sell their improved seeds to that country. This way, the country's food production would be affected. There are even some countries that were almost destroyed because Plant Masters didn't help them. It's precisely because of this that nobody dares to suppress Plant Masters. And even if they do, they wouldn't dare to be too obvious about it. For example, in the Blade Spirit Continent, Plant Masters receive a certain amount of gold coins from the country every month in order to ensure their basic living expenses. Naturally, if you want to cultivate, then you'll have to make your own money."
Cai Wanpeng nodded, he didn't say anything else. Zhao Hai looked at the others and said, "I hope that everyone knows that no matter what time it is, plant masters are peace-loving. No matter what time it is, plant masters will never start a war. Although plant masters are not weak, there is still a big gap between them and combatants. Because of this, no matter which continent it is, plant masters will never be able to dominate." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "That's right, plant masters.
Cai Wanpeng and the others stared, then their expressions changed. They understood the meaning behind Zhao Hai's words. This was a warning for Cai Wanpeng and the others to not have too much ambition just because they learned the ways of Plant Masters.
Zhao Hai looked at Cai Wanpeng and the others and said, "In the Soldier Spirit Continent, Plant Masters worship the God of Nature, which can also be said to be the Way of Nature. We believe that everything in the world has its own soul. We are friends with plants. We improve plants just so that more people can live. At the same time, we also want to find ways to make plants evolve. In the Soldier Spirit Continent, people don't have a good way to eliminate the destructive force. Therefore, there are a lot of Demonic Beasts and Demonic Beasts. Demonic Beasts are the favorite of Beast Masters. They can tame and tame some of these beasts to help them in battle. On the other hand, Demonic Beasts are the favorite of Plant Masters. We can tame these Demonic Beasts and use them as weapons to help us cultivate. But in the Wenji Continent, there are no Demonic Beasts and Demonic Beasts. Because of this, Plant Masters have a congenital weakness. It is impossible for them to fight against other professions. Therefore, strictly speaking, it is best for Plant Masters to play the role of Logistics Minister and provide logistical support for other professions."
After saying this, Zhao Hai couldn't help but let out a long breath. Then he continued, "Plant Masters should stay in the wild. We observe plants in the wild and think of ways to improve them. It's just like how we raise our children. How can we make our children healthier and stronger? This is what a Plant Master should do. Unfortunately, more and more Plant Masters have forgotten their duties. They only want to live in beautiful houses and have beautiful maids. As for living outside, it's unimaginable for them. Such Plant Masters will eventually be eliminated."
Cai Wanpeng and the others didn't say anything. They also didn't know what to say. This was because Zhao Hai seemed to be talking to them, but it also seemed like he was talking to himself. They didn't have any need to respond.
Zhao Hai sighed, then he turned to Cai Wanpeng and the others and said, "The reason why I brought you to the wild is to let you understand what a Plant Master should do. Alright, let's go straight to the point. We'll pass by some villages in the next few days. When the time comes, you'll be in contact with the villagers. I know that Mister Long gave you a lot of funds, but those funds were given to you by Mister Long. I hope that you'll be able to earn your own funds in the next few days."
Cai Wanpeng nodded and said, "Yes, Mister. We understand."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he led the group forward. As night fell, they didn't encounter any villages or towns. Looking at the sky, Zhao Hai said, "It's getting late, let's find a place to rest. We'll continue our journey tomorrow morning. Plant Masters spend a lot of time in the wilderness, I hope that you can adapt." Zhao Hai nodded, then he led the group forward.
Cai Wanpeng and the others didn't say anything, they just nodded their heads. Normally, they would stay in the academy. When they went out to deal with the plants, they would also take a carriage. When did they have to walk for such a long time? After walking for such a long time, they felt very tired and didn't even bother to speak.
Zhao Hai didn't care about them. Instead, he led them to the side of the road and found a place to camp. Then he arranged for the Plant Masters to pick up some firewood as well as some food.
Although the Plant Masters didn't understand why Zhao Hai wanted them to look for food, they still followed Zhao Hai's instructions and went to look for food.
Before long, they came back with a lot of firewood. However, it wasn't enough. They also found some food, but it was very little. Zhao Hai looked at them and couldn't help but sigh. He personally led the Plant Masters into the woods and picked up a lot of firewood, some edible wild fruits, and two wild hares. Then they returned to the camp that he chose.
After arriving at the camp, Zhao Hai lit a fire and distributed the wild fruits to everyone. He also gave them some sealwort that he dug up so that they could roast it and eat it. After processing the wild hares, he made a roasted hare as well as a mushroom soup. For this meal, besides some salt, they didn't touch the dry food that they brought.
After everyone finished eating, Zhao Hai had everyone take out the animal skins and spread them on the ground. He sat on the animal skins and looked at everyone, "Are you all wondering why I didn't let you eat dry food and instead let you look for food?"
Everyone nodded. Zhao Hai looked at them and smiled faintly, "The dry rations that we brought have a certain amount of salt in them. Moreover, they are very dry and can be preserved for a long time. Such dry rations are generally eaten in times of emergency. Sometimes, these dry rations can even save our lives. In such a place where there is no danger, there are too many things that can be eaten. There is no need to waste dry rations." Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "That's right."
Cai Wanpeng looked at Zhao Hai in confusion and said, "Mister, we don't quite understand. What special times?"
Zhao Hai said, "You don't think that there's no danger outside, do you? Let me tell you, the dangers in the wild are beyond your imagination. If you're accidentally bitten by a poisonous insect and kill it, you can't immediately detoxify it. If you can't stand up, what will you do at that time? Will you live by eating grass? At that time, you can eat the dry food in the wooden boxes. Understand? "
Everyone nodded, they now understood the meaning behind Zhao Hai's words. Because they haven't lived in the wild before, they didn't know much about it. Now that they heard Zhao Hai's words, they felt the terror of living in the wild.
In the next few days, they sometimes had to sleep outside. Sometimes, they would find a village or a small town to rest. After another five days, they finally arrived at the foot of Cangwu Mountain.
This was one day later than they expected. There was no other way, Cai Wanpeng and the others' physical strength was very poor. The first day was fine, they were tired, but they persevered. But the second day wasn't so good. On the second day, Cai Wanpeng and the others felt as if their whole body was falling apart. It was very uncomfortable.
However, Zhao Hai didn't let them rest, he directly pulled them up and ate some food. Then they continued on their journey. After walking for a day, they didn't have the strength to gather firewood or find food. They directly fell asleep. On the third day, they felt a little better, but their whole body was still aching.
It wasn't until they arrived at the foot of Cangwu Mountain that they felt completely better. Their bodies also didn't hurt as much. When Zhao Hai saw their appearance, he felt relieved.
When they arrived at the foot of Cangwu Mountain, Zhao Hai looked at the mountain and said, "Let's go. Remember, tighten your pants and hold a stick in your hand. Let's go." Then he took out a stick and took the lead to go up the mountain. The others quickly followed.
Before long, the group entered the dense forest. Upon entering the forest, they felt that their surroundings were dark. It took some time for their eyes to adjust. Then they followed Zhao Hai and carefully walked forward. They also followed Zhao Hai's actions and slowly walked forward. From time to time, they would use the stick in their hand to hit the surrounding grass. From time to time, there would be snakes, insects, rats, and other things that would come out of the grass. They would either run away or attack them. This made them deeply feel the danger of the forest.
After walking in the forest for three days, Zhao Hai finally arrived at a cave. There was a black bear in the cave, but the black bear quickly became their food. The cave became their resting place. After arriving at the cave, Zhao Hai looked around and found a water source not far from the cave. This water source was only a small stream, but it could provide them with drinking water. Zhao Hai decided that they would stay here.
Then Zhao Hai looked around and found a plant for Cai Wanpeng and the others to observe. During the observation process, Cai Wanpeng and the others were also asked to write notes.
At this time, Cai Wanpeng and the others finally understood what Zhao Hai meant. Living in the wild, the biggest difficulty was loneliness. The group of sixteen people seemed very small in this dense forest. Even if they could talk to others, the loneliness that surrounded them made them feel very uncomfortable.
On the other hand, Zhao Hai was very comfortable. Every day, he would go out to find food, observe the plants, write some notes, make some food, and communicate with the plants in the forest. This made Cai Wanpeng and the others speechless.
After a month, Cai Wanpeng and the others felt that they had undergone a transformation. They understood what a Plant Master profession was, and they also understood the hardships of a Plant Master. At the same time, they also wrote down a lot of notes, allowing them to learn how to live in the wild, how to find food in the wild, and how to deal with loneliness. All of these made them fascinated.
After a month, Zhao Hai led the group out of Cang Wu Mountain. They didn't go too deep into the mountain, so their speed was very fast. But when they reached the outskirts of Cang Wu Mountain, they couldn't help but feel as if a lifetime had passed. This made them stand outside Cang Wu Mountain for a while before they recovered.
