Everything was good in this world, but it didn't have the variety of entertainment in his previous world. At night, it was even more torturous. Yue Qianchou had been carrying it for a few years and had slowly gotten used to it. However, Furong's room didn't even have a single light source. He really didn't know how she had survived for so many years.
There were a lot of fluorescent stones in the Golden Bead's space. Initially, he wanted to take a few out for illumination, but after thinking about it, he decided against it. The light emitted by the fluorite was already a bit blue. He was afraid that if the light shone on Hibiscus's face, he would be so scared that he wouldn't be able to sleep.
Tonight, he climbed up to the roof and counted the stars. He looked at the small dark room under his butt, and then looked at the other places where people lived. They were all brightly lit. It was really enviable, so he sighed and went back to his nest in the dark.
He saw that Furong was still sitting cross-legged on the bed, cultivating. Unfortunately, he was restricted by the Aura Refining realm and was unable to cultivate. After thinking it over, he felt that he should ask her about the whereabouts of the spiritual herb tonight. With this girl's intelligence, she shouldn't suspect anything.
Hiding under the blanket, he took out the jade disk containing the pill formula. He felt that it was still better to be safe than sorry. He had to confirm the spiritual herbs in the pill formula for the Foundation Establishment Pill. He must not make a mistake.
Infusing his Spiritual Sense into the Jade Plate, Zhang Xuan soon found the recipe for the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Heart Guarding Orchid, Diamond Fruit, Tendon Forging Grass, Ice Spirit Seed, Gold Fusion Grass, Hundred Year Ginseng, Hundred Year Lingzhi, Dirt Removing Grass, Spirit Gathering Grass.
Mm! If he remembered correctly, it was the Nine Scented Spirit Grass. Who would have thought that the hundred-year-old ginseng and reishi mushroom could also be considered as spiritual grasses. Only the first five species were found in the mulberry garden.
"Senior Aunt Furong." Yue Qianchou kept the jade archive and called out to the other end of the tattered curtain.
"En." Hibiscus also stopped.
"Does our mulberry garden have hundred-year-old ginseng and hundred-year-old Ganoderma?"
Furong asked curiously, "No, but these are the ones planted in the forest behind the mulberry garden. Not only are there hundred year ginseng, there are even close to a thousand year old ginseng. Some of the ginseng are probably about to turn into spirits."
F * ck, there's even the legendary thousand-year-old ginseng! Yue Qianchou was excited when he heard that. He sat up and said, "There must be a lot!"
"There are quite a few hundred-year ones, but only a few thousand-year ones."
"Haha, I heard that that thing is very nutritious! Yue Qianchou smiled and said, "When I have time, I'll get some to eat."
Hibiscus chuckled a few times and said: "Ginseng and Ganoderma are common herbs even in the secular world. You don't need to spend much effort to grow them. Their rarity lies in their age. Usually, those that are over a hundred years old can be included in the category of spiritual herbs. For us cultivators, eating ginseng and ganoderma that are more than a hundred years old directly is a waste. Refining them into pills is the best way to consume them. "
"I'm just saying." Yue Qianchou laughed mischievously and asked, "Does the mulberry garden have dirt removing grass and spirit gathering grass?"
"There's none in the garden. The two biggest plots of land outside the garden at the foot of the mountain are planted with Dirt Dispelling Grass and Spirit Gathering Grass." Hibiscus paused for a moment, then explained, "These two kinds of spiritual herbs are necessary for concocting medicinal pills. The Dirt Dispelling Grass could remove the impurities in the elixir, and the Spirit Gathering Grass could lock the elixir's Spiritual Qi and medicinal effects so that they wouldn't leak out. They were spirit herbs that were used in almost all elixirs. They were used in large quantities, so they were the most commonly planted spiritual herbs in the Myriad Fragrance Garden. "
It turned out that there were spiritual herbs used to concoct Foundation Building Pills all around, but he didn't find them. It seemed that he had to walk around when he had time. Yue Qianchou sighed and said, "There are so many spiritual herbs in the Myriad Fragrance Garden. You must have spent a lot of effort to collect them!"
Hibiscus replied, "Yes! In the outside world, our Supporting Immortals Island's disciples have been searching for all kinds of rare and precious spiritual herbs for a long time. After collecting different spiritual herbs, our Myriad Fragrance Garden will cultivate seeds and then plant them in large quantities. For example, our Mulberry Garden's Consecrated Jiugu is in charge of all kinds of spiritual herb seeds. As long as it's a spiritual herb in the Myriad Fragrance Garden, she has seeds in her hands. "
Ma Jiugu has seeds of all kinds of spiritual herbs? Hearing this, Yue Qianchou's heart jumped. He swallowed his saliva and asked, "Since she has so many seeds, why doesn't the Mulberry Garden have many kinds of spiritual herbs?"
Hibiscus explained, "The Mulberry Garden is in charge of cultivating seeds of all kinds of spiritual herbs. It's not a place to plant large quantities of spiritual herbs. Only the more precious or rare spiritual herbs are planted in the Mulberry Garden."
Yue Qianchou didn't speak, but his mind was quickly turning. It was really troublesome that the seeds of spiritual herbs were in Ma Jiugu's hands. The key was that he didn't know her at all. Not to mention that old woman was at the late stage of Crossing Tribulation. It would be difficult to get something from her hands. Just thinking about it made his teeth hurt.
Hibiscus wasn't someone who took the initiative to speak. Seeing Yue Qianchou tossing and turning on the bed without saying anything, she naturally didn't say anything. But she didn't know that the latter was worrying about the seeds.
She recalled the scene when she saw Ma Jiugu that day. Just a glance from her made her heart jump. She was really difficult to deal with! But that day, Yan Zixia seemed to be very intimate with her. Strange, how could a new disciple like her be so familiar with Ma Jiugu? That's right, when I came out, I heard her call out 'Great Grandmother'. Who was she calling? There were only a few people at that time. Apart from Ma Jiugu, who else could it be?
The two of them were relatives! Yue Qianchou woke up from the bed and sat up.
If they weren't relatives, there was no reason for Ma Jiugu to be so intimate with Yan Zixia in this cold Cultivation World. It couldn't be because she liked Yan Zixia's beauty! Yue Qianchou suddenly understood and slowly lay down again. His mind fell on Yan Zixia.
Hibiscus didn't know what he was doing, so she got up and lay down in surprise.
As the saying goes, hope is beautiful, but reality is always cruel!
Ever since Yue Qianchou arrived at the mulberry garden, he could be seen carrying a bucket of manure even before the sun rose. Such days passed. In order to get the seeds of spiritual herbs, he put his mind on Yan Zixia. He often wandered around the gate of the middle courtyard, hoping to meet her and make a connection. Unfortunately, he didn't get what he wanted. Several days passed, but Yan Zixia seemed to have disappeared from the mulberry garden. He didn't even see her shadow.
The spiritual herbs in the formula of the Foundation-Building Pill in the mulberry garden were very tempting. Every time he passed by intentionally or unintentionally, he wanted to secretly pull a few. However, he found that there were eyes everywhere in the seemingly spacious environment, so he had no chance to do it. Later, he put his mind on the spiritual herb field at the foot of the mountain, but he also had no chance to do it. He ran to the woods in the back of the mountain to dig some hundred-year-old ginseng and hundred-year-old lingzhi, but before he entered the woods, he was driven out and severely warned.
After trying a few times, he didn't dare to try again. If he tried again, he would be suspected, so he could only wait for the opportunity to come.
There was a secluded valley in Wanfenyuan, where there was a small river leading to the sea. There was a kind of silver-white fish in the river. After Yue Qianchou caught and ate it once, he found that the fish tasted exceptionally delicious. Since then, he would come here to fish whenever he had time. From then on, the smell of grilled fish often wafted from the corners of the mulberry garden. After Furong ate his unique grilled fish, although she didn't say it, it was obvious that she liked it very much.
In the blink of an eye, a year had passed, and there was no sign of him going back to the Alchemy Pavilion. It was not a good thing to go back. The dead knot between him and Yan Shu hadn't been untied. In this way, Yue Qianchou, who was waiting for an opportunity, lived a very regular life every day. Early in the morning, he went to the women's toilet to pick feces, in the morning he fertilized the spiritual herbs, and in passing, he tried his luck at the gate of the courtyard. In the afternoon, he went fishing and came back to grill fish. Occasionally, he would go back to the Golden Pearl and encourage Chen Feng to resume his old business and work hard to improve his talisman-making skills. Guan Yu also often asked him how he was doing in Fuxian Island, but he would never tell him the real situation even if he was beaten to death. After all, picking feces for a year was not a glorious thing. He didn't want anyone in the Golden Pearl to know about it. If it was spread out, it would be too damaging to his, Boss Yue's, reputation.
Day after day, when he was really depressed, he saw that there were many beautiful women in the mulberry garden. He also wanted to tease a younger sister or elder sister to relieve his boredom, but they didn't even have the interest to let him approach them. Late at night, Yue Qianchou hid under the quilt and cried sadly, "Brother is so lonely!"
