Chapter 205 A Bountiful Harvest
Chapter 205 A Bountiful Harvest
Demons are different from monsters. The form of a demon changes unpredictably according to its temperament, and there are too many uncontrollable situations.
My good mood has turned sour.
Subconsciously, I took out a cabbage and rubbed it.
I glanced at the cabbage, then at the two leisurely creatures by the pond.
After all that commotion, the sun had already set behind the mountains, and the light and shadows had dimmed, but the valley was still warm and cozy.
Set up the tent on the grass, place the brazier, light it, hang the earthenware pot, and start boiling water.
The Dream Weaving Vine and the Star Silkworm grow side by side. The purple vines twine around the mulberry trees and spiral upwards, forming a sturdy platform at the foot of the trees. At this time, the Star Silkworms have stopped spinning silk, and the entire mulberry grove is filled with white cocoons, which sway gently in the breeze.
She placed her hand on the trunk of a mulberry tree, and her spiritual energy flowed through the tree and into the entire mulberry grove, enveloping the Dream Weaving Vine below. She then moved the Star Silkworms, which hadn't yet completed their silk-spinning process, to the outer mulberry trees, confirming that none of them were alive.
"receive!"
The entire mulberry forest and the Dreamweaving Vine, along with the mountain below, were all relocated into the cave. Behind the main hall, beside the giant dragon mine, relying on the mine, the soil covered the mountain, and the forest took root. The Dreamweaving Vine seemed oblivious, unaware of the relocation.
I watched intently as the white, translucent cocoons swayed and trembled for a moment, then three, then nothing.
It didn't explode!
【Tuanzi, the silkworm cocoons are ready to be harvested.】
Tuanzi looked at the large hollowed-out section of the mountainside before her, the exposed gray-black rocks and soil looking rather unsightly. "The Star Silkworms are encased in their cocoons, so the cave can't sense any life. If the Star Butterflies can survive when they emerge, then it'll be truly time to collect them," Tuanzi said with a smile. "You really don't hold back! You've collected everything except those that haven't formed cocoons yet. If they explode, you're going to wipe out the Star Silkworms' lineage!"
Ning Xiaoxi ignored it, not wanting to tell it that she had already secretly thrown in two cocoons for testing.
"Goooooooooo!"
Ning Xiaoxi returned to the brazier, opened a package of ingredients provided by her mother, and poured them all into the earthenware pot.
Looking up at the edge of the pool, Ning Xiaoxi saw Jiuyu lying limply by the water. Startled, she quickly ran over, picked up Jiuyu's soft body, and retreated far away from the pool.
Looking down at the noodles that were practically hanging from his arm, and his rosy, smiling face, was he drunk?
Xiaoxue dragged the water bag with difficulty to Ning Xiaoxi's feet. Ning Xiaoxi picked up the water bag, and lo and behold, it was empty. She had soaked herself in it. "My lord, you are made of vines. Although you won't dissolve in water, this is really not in line with your wisdom and might!" Ning Xiaoxi couldn't help but mutter to herself. If she didn't seize the opportunity to scold him now, she wouldn't have the chance to reprimand him once Jiuyu became familiar with this vine body and could control it flexibly.
The sap of the Three Mulberry Tree and the vines are both plant-based, and thus share a common origin. Its powerful nourishing properties allowed the vines of the Nine Realms to be reshaped once more. Previously, only the face resembled a vine; although the body was long, it was barrel-shaped. Now, the body has shrunk to thigh height, revealing a more defined figure—broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs!
This time, not only was Xiaoxue drooling, but Ning Xiaoxi was almost drooling too!
Damn it, that's a foul!
She took thirteen years to grow to 135, and she's only grown for less than a day now? I'm so jealous!
After Jiuyu recovered, he felt a little embarrassed. He returned to his cave, only to find that he could no longer enter the little beast's den. So he lay down on the edge of the den, his arm draped over the edge, his head resting on his arm, and closed his eyes, falling asleep.
Little Snow skipped over, but dared not get too close to the little nest. Instead, it lay down at Jiu Yu's feet and fell asleep as well.
Ning Xiaoxi enjoyed her meal and then took a walk around the valley to digest.
At this moment, the crescent moon had risen into the sky, and its white light bathed the valley, making the entire valley shimmer with silver light, like a dream.
The Invisibility Grass has leaves shaped like butterfly wings, as thin as cicada wings, and a rootstock that is so fine it is almost invisible. Its color and shape can change with the surrounding environment, giving it the ability to conceal itself and other objects.
This is good stuff! I'll put it away and place it next to the mulberry tree.
The psychedelic thorn grass is a small plant with long, slender, dark green leaves covered in sharp thorns. It produces small, trumpet-shaped purple flowers on its stem. When a creature approaches, it releases a numbing aroma that disrupts the nervous system, causing temporary dizziness and disorientation, thus confusing and disorienting the person.
Haha, although the effect is a bit lackluster, a lackluster thing is still a lackluster thing! I'll put it away.
The Phantom Tree has a tall, thick trunk with gray, twisted bark. Its leaves are oval and pale green. It can create realistic phantoms to confuse approaching creatures. The phantoms vary depending on the user.
Create an illusion; good people will be ecstatic, and bad people will be terrified! (Collect it.)
After happily finishing collecting the food, feeling I'd had enough to digest, I looked up and wow! A flock of slender birds with broad wings were flying in the air. Their feathers were pale blue, shimmering with a dreamlike light. The feathers on their tails were longer, forked at the ends like two ribbons. The birds flew silently, scattering blue dust from their bodies, creating a mirage-like beauty around them.
Birds! Alive! We can't catch them!
【Dream Bird, creating dreams, enter dreams!】
Ning Xiaoxi drooled. How could such a beautiful bird not be mine?
"Cuckoo!"
"Chirp!"
"Chirp chirp!"
"Squeak!"
A series of chaotic and disordered sounds came from behind; the sounds were not loud, but they were very penetrating.
"Whoosh!" From the grass beside them, a group of flat, oval-shaped insects with a pair of transparent wings on their backs, some black spots on their wings, and many tiny hairs on their abdomens, brown or gray, jumped out and ran towards the direction from which the sound came.
After they jumped out, all the sounds turned into "Chirp!" "Chirp!".
The insects charged forward fearlessly, and one by one, small birds with colorful feathers, a unique crest on their heads, large and bright eyes, and hooked beaks fluttered up and down, catching the insects one by one and enjoying their meal.
The Sound-Mimicking Bird can mimic various sounds, including the calls of other animals, human language, and various sounds from nature, to lure and capture prey.
The Shadow Bug possesses excellent concealment and deception abilities. It can blend into its surroundings and release black smoke to cover its escape when in danger.
The lively hunting activity soon came to an end; the birds returned to their nests, and the insects disappeared into the grass.
The valley returned to calm, and Ning Xiaoxi felt she had suffered a huge loss this time!
