Chapter 176 Protection Duty This last piece of advice was, of course, meant for Senior Brother Liu. It wasn't that she didn't trust him, but his current state was really a little... too excited. In fact, it is not difficult to understand. As a low-level monk, he has lived in poverty for too many days. Every day when he opens his eyes, he is worried about the future and troubled by the shortage of various resources. Everyone has pressure, especially those low-level monks who want to advance but are mostly powerless to do so. Now, the years of suffering seemed to be over, and suddenly a huge opportunity fell on his brow. The feeling of becoming rich overnight made him so excited that his hands shook constantly. But if you think about it carefully, it was actually normal. But at the same time, out of excitement, he picked the spirit stone flowers that were not old enough, which seemed normal. "Brother, I know." Liu Zhen blushed embarrassedly, scratched his head, and quickly responded. The front of this mountain is in a semi-enclosed crescent shape. The location where the Lingshi flower grows is mostly close to the slope of the mountain and a small piece of the ground nearby. There are already a lot of Lingshi flowers growing in the mountains ahead, but when we go around to the back, we find that after passing through the strong wind and approaching the cliff, although the terrain is a bit steep and dangerous, the geographical area that is conducive to the growth of Lingshi flowers is also much higher. The endless spiritual stone flowers surround the entire mountain range. The three people divided the area and started picking.
This thing is precious and difficult to preserve, and the petals are relatively easy to break, so picking it is a very troublesome job. Zhou Ling's original idea was very simple. He would use Taoism to control the soil and lift it up a layer. Then he would use wood-based Taoism to control the roots of the Lingshi Flower. Then he would use earth-based Taoism to control the soil to which the roots were attached. If he gently separated the two sides, he might be able to achieve a perfect separation. The idea is right, but the implementation is wrong. Don’t ask what’s wrong, because everything is wrong! In order to avoid wasting things, she chose a small area to do an experiment to see if this method was feasible. The result was... As soon as his Taoism touched the spirit stone flower, it vaporized before his eyes. "You can't touch it with spiritual power, Junior Sister!" In the divided areas, Liu Zhen's area was adjacent to Zhou Ling's. Although the two of them were picking separately, they could still see each other's actions if they occasionally raised their heads. He was happily collecting spirit stone flowers when he suddenly felt something was wrong. Why was there a faint fluctuation of Taoist spiritual power in the air? His heart was pounding as he hurriedly looked for the specific place where the spiritual energy was fluctuating, and as a result, he saw... that second beautiful junior sister, destroying things. She destroyed a large area of the beautiful Lingshi flowers! It hurts, he seemed to hear the sound of heartache, and he opened his mouth to shout, but it was too late. Zhou Ling looked at his empty hands and felt discouraged for a moment. It was not easy for her to read so much information in a short time, but she didn't expect that there were some details she had not paid attention to. If she walked in this secret place, she would really lose things! For example, when Senior Brother Liu said this, she vaguely remembered it, as if she had indeed seen that sentence. At the end of the introduction of the Lingshi Flower, it said that people should pick it with human power, and not use spiritual power. Thinking back on it now, I really want to flip the table. Why? For such an important matter, he didn't just enlarge the font and put it in the front, but he actually deliberately shrunk himself and put himself in the back? Just! Outrageous! The small piece of soil she used for the experiment had at least eight or ten Lingshi flowers growing on it. Compared to the large patch behind her, it seemed insignificant. But if she took them out individually, each one was worth a lot. Thinking of this, she began to feel distressed again. Zhou Ling collected all the spiritual power and picked each one carefully, not daring to waste even a single bit. Fortunately, after they had made the clear plan to enter the secret realm, her mother and she knew that they would inevitably have to collect more spiritual plants after entering, so they stocked up a lot of jade boxes and forbidden talismans to store the spiritual plants. Now, almost all of them come in handy.
As Zhou Ling's hands became more and more skillful, the jade boxes of various sizes were filled up and were all stuffed into the storage bag. Although storage bags are convenient to use, they have a disadvantage, that is, the space between them cannot be folded. In other words, when a storage bag is full, she can only find ways to tie things to different places on her body and hide them in different places, instead of finding a new storage bag to put the full bag into to save some space for herself. She felt refreshed and relaxed when she came, but after collecting items in everyone's area and was about to leave, she found that each of them had a bulging storage bag hidden around their waist or in their sleeves. The space inside the storage bag seems to be compressed and sealed. If the space inside the storage bag is about to be full, the outer shape of the storage bag will be like a cloth bag full of things, and it will be very bulging, so that people can tell at a glance that the goods inside are full, perhaps there are good things. If they appeared in front of others with a few storage bags like these, they would probably be targeted as fat sheep in no time. "Find a way to sew it into the inner sleeve." Zhou Li spoke up at the right time and offered an idea. "Yeah!" Zhou Ling nodded. In fact, she thought so just now. Sometimes, her mother would make some clothes for her in her spare time. Scissors and needles were indispensable tools, which had always been kept in her storage bracelet. Now they were used to sew and modify storage bags, which was very convenient. This is the greatest benefit of the world of cultivating immortals. Having a space magic weapon for storage is equivalent to carrying a home with you at all times. It can carry various small items. As long as you are careful enough and prepare everything, you will never be troubled by the lack of the right tools when you are out. My mother was good at sewing, so she took on all the sewing tasks for the three of us. Zhou Ling took out a few empty jade boxes that had not been used yet. Since he had nothing to do, he planned to go back to his own area and pick a few more spiritual stone flowers that were old enough to take with him. But she had just squatted down and relaxed her vigilance, so she didn't notice a black shadow flying from the other side of the mountain in time. Until the flower she reached out to pick was crushed into mud, and the dark shadow pressing down her flower turned out to be a person! The man was dead. His body fell on the soft soil without making much noise, but it was enough to wake up Zhou Li and Liu Zhen, one who was picking flowers and the other who was sewing storage bags. They rushed over here almost instantly. Zhou Li blocked her, and Liu Zhen blocked the mother and daughter. Although he had witnessed the sisters wielding swords with his own eyes, no matter whether they were sword cultivators or not, and no matter how powerful they were, in terms of cultivation, he was still the one with the highest cultivation among the three. Being called senior brother, he had the responsibility to protect the junior sister behind him. (End of this chapter)
