Chapter 190: The mulberries are ripe

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, a year has passed before the tenth anniversary celebration of Qingyunmen’s school.

In the eleventh year of the Qingyun Sect's establishment, five mulberry trees planted outside the mountain gate were filled with mulberry flowers, and the rich aroma spreaded, and even could be smelled on Qingyun Peak.

In this season when mulberry flowers bloom, Qingyunmen welcomed a group of special guests.

"Hahaha, Master Zhou came so fast. Wang thought you would have to wait ten or eight days before you could come!"

Outside Qingyun Peak, Wang Cheng, who received the notice in advance, flew out of the mountain gate with a smile on his face to greet Zhou Yuru, the leader of Yufeng Sect, and his group.

It turned out that after the spiritual mulberry trees in the mulberry forest bloomed on a large scale, Wang Cheng suddenly had an idea and remembered the Yufengmen that tamed the spiritual bee. He immediately sent an iFlytek sword to inform Zhou Yuru, the leader of the Yufengmen.

Unexpectedly, after Zhou Yuru received his flying sword message, she immediately replied to the message thanking him, and organized people to bring the spiritual bees from the sect to Qingyun Sect.

Hearing his words at this moment, Zhou Yuru couldn't help but smile and said, "The flowering period is short. If you come one day earlier, you will get more rewards. I dare not be lazy at all."

"That's true. Then Wang will take Chief Zhou to Sanglin."

Wang Cheng nodded slightly, and immediately took Zhou Yuru and several Yufengmen monks to the Sanglin.

In order to arrive as fast as possible, all three foundation-building monks from the Yufeng Gate were dispatched this time, and they all flew with a female disciple in the Qi Refining Stage and several beehives to Qingyun Gate.

At this time, after arriving in the Sanglin under the leadership of Wang Cheng, they immediately picked a place to place the beehives, and asked Qingyunmen’s disciples to take care of the Sanglin to evacuate first, then opened the beehives and released the spirit bee that had long been restless because of the smell of mulberry flowers.

Those spirit bees were only as big as sparrows, seven or eight inches long, golden all over, and looked a few majestic and powerful.

As soon as these spirit bees flew out of the beehive, they first flew around the beehive for several rounds to get to know the surrounding environment, and then rushed to the spirit mulberry trees full of mulberry flowers.

In the air hundreds of feet away, Wang Cheng stood in the air. Looking at this scene from afar, he couldn't help but look at a look of interest on his face.

Just as Zhou Yuru, who was not far away from him, immediately smiled and explained to him: "Demon insects are not as good as monsters. They do not have the wisdom of monsters. Unless they encounter natural enemies, they will easily attack all enemies around them that threaten them, even regardless of whether they can win or not!"

"These spiritual bees now want to pick flowers and make honey. From now on, in addition to the female disciples of this sect who have been taking care of them, it is best not to approach the mulberry forest during the day by the head of the sect. The usual watering and catching insects will be left to the disciples of this sect to do, and ensure that there will be no problems with these spiritual mulberry trees."

In fact, what she didn't say is that the spirit bee itself is also a means of fighting the enemy.

These spiritual bees can not only pick flowers and make honey, but also help the disciples of the Yufeng Sect to kill enemies. The toxins of the bee needle are enough to cause fatal damage to the Qi Refining Cultivator.

However, these spiritual bees are all treasures of the Yufeng Sect. Until the last resort, the disciples of the Yufeng Sect will definitely not let them participate in the war.

"Wang will give instructions, so let your disciples take care of these Sanglins next."

Wang Cheng nodded to Zhou Yuru and left immediately.

He lent the Sanglin to Yufengmen to maintain beekeeping, mainly to repay Zhou Yuru's favor when he came to help Qingyunmen, and to deepen the friendship between the two sects.

As for those spirit bees, to be honest, Wang Cheng didn’t have much idea.

After all, Qingyun Sect is not Yufeng Sect, so it is impossible for the entire sect to develop a group of spiritual bees.

In this case, even if you get spiritual bees to be domesticated, you will not be able to form an industry at all, and you cannot even satisfy your own use.

Zhou Yuru did not stay in Qingyun Sect for too long. She left a foundation-building elder who had left a few disciples to watch Gu Lingfeng here, so she took another elder back to the mountain gate of Yufeng Sect.

And almost a month later, as the flowering period of mulberry flowers completely passed, the people from Yufengmen also brought the spiritual bees back to the mountain gate, and everything returned to normal.

But for the people of Qingyun Sect, now is the beginning of the harvest.

The flowering period of mulberry flowers has passed, and the mulberry fruits that bear fruit will ripen within two months, and then these mulberry trees will usher in a bumper harvest.

Moreover, because the cooperation agreement signed by Wang Cheng and the [Yunlong Chamber of Commerce] was to fulfill the acquisition contract ten years later, this means that the mulberry fruit produced in mulberry forests can still be disposed of by Qingyunmen.

Fresh mulberry fruits are full of spiritual power, and after eating them, they can directly refine and gain cultivation.

But the biggest use of these mulberry fruits is winemaking and alchemy. [Yunlong Chamber of Commerce] has a unique secret recipe. You can use mulberry fruit as the main material and match other materials to make high-quality spiritual wines with various effects, and you can also use them to refine some elixirs with unique effects.

However, just as Wang Cheng and many Qingyun Sect disciples were waiting for the mulberry fruit to ripen with anticipation, Lin Yuanshan, who was in charge of the mine, suddenly came to Qingyun Peak, bringing him some bad news.

It turns out that after so many years of over-mining, the [Silver] vein that made an indelible contribution to the prosperity and development of Qingyunmen was finally about to completely dry up.

According to Lin Yuanshan, as the latest mine tunnel is dug to the end, even if the mine can still produce ore in the next six months, the output will be ten times lower than at its peak.

Such mineral veins have no mining value at all.

"Junior brother, you must still remember the [Fire Crystal Iron] ore we found in his nest when we killed [Chirou Zheng]. Now we have four foundation-building monks in our Qingyun Sect. It is time to find and mine the possible [Fire Crystal Iron] ore vein!"

In the yard where Wang Cheng lives alone, Lin Yuanshan looked at Wang Cheng with bright eyes and said his plans in a deep voice.

When their brothers were plotted against by Liu Hongyan, the poisonous woman, and almost fell into the hands of each other. It was Wang Cheng who killed Liu Hongyan at the critical moment and saved the lives of the two.

At the same time, when searching for the nest of the strange beast [Red Horned Cyrus], the two of them also found a special treasure in their nest, a piece of the unrefined [Fire Crystal Iron] ore.

However, the two of them had low cultivation at that time, and the Qingyun Sect was also small and weak. Even the [Silver] ore veins were not capable of mining and refining, so they did not even think about finding the [Fire Crystal Iron] ore veins.

But both of them were undoubtedly remembered and never forgotten.

Now that the [Silver] vein is about to dry up, and the huge profits obtained from mining are about to end, Lin Yuanshan couldn't help but pay attention to opening another mine, preparing to find and dig the [Fire Crystal Iron] vein that is hidden in no way.

At this moment, facing Lin Yuanshan's proposal, Wang Cheng had his own plans and couldn't help but wave his hand and said, "I understand what the senior brother means. But I don't know where the [Fire Crystal Iron] ore vein is located, and it is not convenient to search for it with great fanfare. It is probably difficult to find its location."

"Second, the [Fire Crystal Iron] ore vein is not as good as the [Silver] ore vein after all. This is a precious spiritual gold that can be used to refine second-level spiritual weapons. With the current power of our Qingyun Sect, it is hard to say whether it can really save it!"

"So my idea is that it's better to slow down for a few more years. When my junior brother advances to the middle stage of foundation building, the third and fourth brothers also build the foundation, it's not too late to find this [Fire Crystal Iron] ore vein."

After experiencing the war with the Huangshi Sect, Wang Cheng became more cautious about this.

A small mixed ore vein containing only [steel and silver] spiritual gold has caused Jiang Yunhe, the leader of the Huangshi Sect, to bet on the fate of the sect to come and compete for it.

If it were replaced with a more rare [Fire Crystal Iron] ore vein, even if Qingyun Sect is no longer as good as before, it is hard to guarantee that no one would follow the influence of greed and use the same trick again.

It was already a miracle to be able to defeat the Huangshi Sect by the weak and a strong one, a miracle that is difficult to replicate.

If such a war comes again, Wang Cheng will not be sure to create such victory again.

When Lin Yuanshan heard Wang Cheng's words, he also felt that it made sense.

But he couldn't help but suggest, "Even if it is mined in the future, you have to find the ore veins first. Junior brother, you said that the ore veins are still buried, and we cannot search them with great fanfare. If we don't find them in advance, will we have to waste time searching when we have enough strength to mine in the future?"

This proposal is a pertinent statement.

After a moment of pondering, Wang Cheng nodded slightly and said, "What the eldest brother said makes sense, then the eldest brother and the second sister will be responsible for this matter. I will let Elder Xu go to the mine to take over your work."

Lin Yuanshan also knew that Wang Cheng was busy rushing to the middle stage of foundation building, so it was not convenient to be distracted by him. He had no objection to his arrangement, so he agreed immediately.

As the days passed, the mulberry fruits produced by the spiritual mulberry trees in the Qingyunmen mulberry forest began to mature one after another.

When some of the spiritual mulberry trees were born last year, Wang Cheng was still running outside to recruit disciples, but he was not able to see this scene.

Now the season when the mulberry fruits are ripe, he has finally seen the fruits he has achieved through these ten years of hard work.

I saw that on the spiritual mulberry trees that were three or four feet tall, there were strings of purple and red mulberry fruits hanging on the treetops like high-quality agate. Each one was one finger long and two fingers thick.

Looking at the plump and crystal mulberry fruits, Wang Cheng was feeling extremely comfortable as if he had drunk honey, and his heart was filled with the joy of harvest.
