Chapter 208: Cold and hostile, Yuanling ginseng, sowing discord (Monthly ticket plus more) Autumn rain is not as lingering as spring rain, as impatient as summer rain, or as obstructive as winter rain. It is more eventful, elegant, open-minded and unrestrained. The same was true for Guan Zizai. He left as soon as the rain stopped. The mountain breeze after the rain was a little murderous, and it sounded like a sad flute in the distance. He walked along the mountain path to the mountainside when he noticed a rustling sound like rain. There was a faint sound of footsteps. Guan Zizai suddenly stopped and shouted, "Come out!" The sound of brisk footsteps behind me paused. Then a little girl with two pigtails tiptoed out of the rice field, holding two corn cobs tightly in her hands. Her bright black and innocent eyes stared timidly at Guan Zizai, and her simple and healthy wheat-skinned face seemed to have become thinner. On this cold autumn day after the rain, the girl was still barefoot, and her toes twisted unconsciously in the mud.

She hesitated for a moment, then took out a corn cob and said. "Uncle, are you still hungry?" Guan Zizai turned around and saw this scene. His face, which was as tense as beef tendon, relaxed slightly. But then he thought that this little girl might be sent by the Lord of Longyuan City to soften his will, and he shouted coldly. "I'm not hungry, go away!" The power he inadvertently released when he shouted frightened the little girl so much that she turned pale and fell down into the mud on the edge of the field, with the corn also falling into the mud. The little girl hurriedly picked up the corns in the mud. She didn't understand why her kindness was met with cruelty. She couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat and started sobbing. Guan Zizai frowned, raised his hand to pull her, and then dropped it again. He firmly believed that the little girl was probably sent by Chu Ge. The last time, it was because he met this girl that he softened his heart and killed Li Lianxin, and gave Chu Ge a chance, otherwise he would not have been able to complete the prince's mission. He snorted coldly, turned and left, but his ears perked up, listening to the movement behind him. Not long after, a chaotic sound of footsteps was heard coming from the mountain path, and soon someone rushed to the little girl. His heart was as hard as stone, and he thought to himself that this girl was indeed arranged by the Lord of Longyuan City, otherwise how could someone approach her so quickly at this moment. "Little girl, it's you again, stealing corn from the mountain again!" "Wuwuwu Grandpa Wu, Nunu didn't mean it. Nunu is hungry. After dad left, Nunu has nothing to eat every day." Guan Zizai suddenly paused, feeling as if his heart was scratched by a cat, and his face suddenly turned red. The sound from behind still came. "You, I told you to follow Master Gu and the others in the mountain so you wouldn't starve, but you were stubborn and refused to go. I asked you to go to the relief hall in the town below, but you wouldn't listen. How can you keep stealing corn? These are counted and must be handed over to the city." "I am weak and can't squeeze into the relief hall every time. The food I get is snatched away." "What? Robbed? There are unruly people in town again."

Guan Zizai just felt a little breathless, and his heart, which had been a little hard-hearted just now, softened again. He wanted to turn back, but he forced himself to hold his neck stiff, as if he was facing the criticism of thousands of people. He limped away at a faster pace and left quickly. He was afraid that if he walked any slower, he would not be able to report back. A dozen miles away from Longpan Mountain, in a valley with lush vegetation. Chu Ge followed Xiao Qian and Xiao Gui here, and soon found the Tianshengdiyangjing who was knocked unconscious by Xiao Qian in the hole of a big tree in the valley. This thing looks like a human-shaped ginseng, and the many ginseng tendrils of different sizes growing on it are its hands and feet. The head is slightly oval and plump, with two slits that look like eyes, and the thin whiskers on the chin look like a beard. A faint aura and spiritual power emanated from the ginseng, highlighting its unusualness. "This looks like a little old man with ginseng? Could it be the legendary medicine?" Chu Ge observed the unconscious ginseng in the tree hole with a strange look on his face. With his super hearing, he could even hear the extremely subtle breathing of the ginseng old man. But the more important thing is the ginseng fragrance emanating from this old ginseng man. Just one sniff is enough to invigorate people. They can't help but salivate, and they have an urge to swallow this old ginseng man in one gulp. Chu Ge immediately saw a severed ginseng beard from the ginseng old man’s body. There was even crystal juice at the wound, emitting an enticing ginseng fragrance. “Slurp!” The kid licked his lips helplessly, wanting to move closer and continue sucking. Chu Ge asked, "You two disappeared for a few days. Are you hiding here to eat? How come you only ate one ginseng beard?" "It's not that we don't want to eat more, it's just that the old man's ginseng is very, very intoxicating." Xiao Qian put her hands on her hips and organized her words to describe it. She tilted her head and thought for a while, "It's almost as good as the drop of wine you used before, Zhuzi. We ate a ginseng beard and slept for several days. Fortunately, Xiao Qian had knocked the old man unconscious before, and the time it took to nap was longer than when we were unconscious, so it can’t escape now.” Chu Ge knew that the drop of wine Xiao Qian was talking about was the fine wine of Lu Zongzhao, one of the Twelve Strange Wines. It was he who used that drop of wine to get Xiao Qian drunk. Unexpectedly, Xiao Qian said that the intoxicating effect of this ginseng beard was comparable to that of Jiuyi's fine wine. "This ginseng is so intoxicating. If the wine lover Lu Zongzhao found it, he would be ecstatic. It is a good spiritual material for making wine." Chu Ge asked curiously, "What benefits did you get from eating a ginseng beard?" Xiao Qian, "Xiao Qian's spirit is stronger, her spirit body is condensed and stable, and some of her vague memories have become much clearer." The little ghost nodded woodenly and gestured with his hands to show that the improvement was quite good. "It can actually improve the spirit? Then it seems that it is also very useful for the Spiritual God Realm." Chu Ge looked at the ginseng in the tree hole and said, "Xiao Qian, you call it Old Ginseng. Do you know what this thing is? How did you subdue it?"

"Xiao Qian doesn't recognize it, but she has seen this kind of natural and naturally raised plant elves before. Their bodies are very precious and are often captured." Xiao Qian said, and then displayed her weak spiritual power, which may be only one-tenth of that of a spiritual god, and rushed towards Chu Ge. "This is an attack method that Xiao Qian has in her memory after she awakened from the breakthrough. Xiao Qian used this method to subdue the old man." The little ghost nodded woodenly. Chu Ge only felt a weak but cold spiritual power invading him, as if it was going to rush to his brain, block his spirit, and freeze his thoughts. He couldn't help but praise. "You have a good method." Xiao Qian said, "It can run very fast and burrow underground. Fortunately, Xiao Qian and Xiao Gui can pass through walls and burrow underground, and Xiao Gui can also lock its position. Xiao Qian and Xiao Gui attacked it from all sides and front and back before they finally captured it underground. Zhuzi, it was not easy for us, you can’t eat alone, you have to share some with us.” The kid continued to nod woodenly. Chu Ge shook his head, stretched out his hand, and carefully took out a ginseng root as thick and long as an adult's forearm from the tree hole, saying, "This is a good treasure. It would be a waste to eat it all directly. We may not be able to afford it for the time being. We can keep it and eat a ginseng root every once in a while." Xiao Qian and Xiao Gui were stunned when they heard this, and suddenly felt that Chu Ge’s words made sense, and they nodded quickly. The ginseng old man seemed to be subconsciously frightened, and his ginseng whiskers trembled twice. Chu Ge threw the ginseng into the Dragon Bell before it woke up to check the specific status of the ginseng. "Yuanling Ginseng (Old) (Current Status: Coma): Introduction: (A spirit born from nature and nurtured by nature, it was once born on the Lingyun Hill where the vitality was abundant. It woke up when the vitality tide fell. In order to survive and grow, it followed the direction of the retreating vitality tide and fell into the Tianyuan Demon Cave, hiding in the ancient ruins. When the Tianyuan Demon Cave saw the light of day again, the Yuanling ginseng escaped from the Tianyuan Demon Cave to avoid capture by warriors. It was difficult for it to survive in the outside world where the Yuan Qi was thin, so it followed its survival instinct and roamed around following the breath of the Yuan Demon blood. Yuanling ginseng will burrow into soil when it encounters it, and can hide in the soil, making it extremely difficult to capture. The ginseng roots can turn bones into flesh and revive the dead. They contain abundant vital energy and can be used for spiritual practice to enhance supernatural powers and even spirit. Taking the whole plant can prolong life and it was a rare medicine in ancient times. Yuanling ginseng possesses wisdom, can speak human language, and knows ancient secrets. Compared to its own medicinal value, perhaps its wisdom and knowledge are more valuable)." Chu Ge quickly read through the information about Yuanling ginseng given by Long Zhong, and was quite surprised. In less than ten breaths, he quickly took out the Yuanling ginseng from the dragon bell. The Yuanling ginseng that had walked through the Dragon Bell seemed to sense a great crisis subconsciously. Suddenly, its body trembled slightly and it woke up. Its two slit-like small eyes opened and it saw Chu Ge's face at the first moment. "what!--" The ginseng that looked like a little old man suddenly opened another slit-like mouth and screamed, and dozens of ginseng tentacles and limbs on its body began to sway together. "Master, please spare my life, Master, please spare my life. I have hands and feet. Master, please take my hands and feet, but don't take my life." Chu Ge looked at the ginseng old man in his hand in amazement, who looked so humane. I finally understood what Long Zhong meant by speaking human language and having wisdom. This thing is really valuable. Perhaps it is a living history book that has survived from ancient times to the present. Even if it spends most of its time sleeping in the soil, as long as it reveals some of the ancient secrets or the location of the secret cave of vital energy, it will be priceless, more valuable than eating the ginseng raw. Chu Ge immediately said to the Yuan Ling Ginseng that was dancing with joy, "You should be the Yuan Ling Ginseng from ancient times, right? You call yourself an old man, it seems you have lived for a long time, you should know a lot about the ancient times and some dangerous places.

If you tell me some valuable information, such as the information about the sudden break in the history of the Yun Dynasty, I can spare your life." A trace of surprise flashed across Yuan Ling Ren Shen's two slit-like eyes, and then he quickly waved a dozen hands and said, "No, no, no, you guessed wrong, master. I have only lived for ten sixty years, and I have been sleeping in the soil for most of the time. I just came out to breathe recently. It's still a long way from the ancient times, ah——" Before it could finish its words, it cried out in pain. One of its ginseng whiskers had been pulled off by Chu Ge expressionlessly. It felt so painful that it was about to cry. Chu Ge looked at the ginseng whiskers in his hand, worried that he would get drunk if he ate them. He considered for a moment and put them in his mouth to taste the juice. He said coldly, "I don't like people lying to me, not even ginseng. If you lie, I will pull out a ginseng whisker from you. When you have no more whiskers to pull out, I will eat you." The Yuanling Ginseng was immediately terrified, and then he looked at Xiao Qian and Xiao Gui who were excitedly staring at its body full of ginseng whiskers on the ground, eager to try something new, and he knew that he had encountered a gang of ruthless people. He felt like crying but had no tears, and howled. "We were born from the same heaven and earth, why are we so anxious to hurt each other? I really don't know the ancient times——" Before Yuanling Ginseng could finish his words, he cried out in pain again, and another ginseng beard and limb was torn off. At the same time, in Jizhou, the Manno Palace. More than a dozen big men in black, holding torches, stood around the palace square, guarding a tall and thin man who was kneeling on one knee in the center of the square. In the pavilion opposite the tall and thin man, a tall man in black clothes with dragon patterns embroidered on them was holding a brush and splashing ink. After a while, he put down his pen and hung it on the mountain-shaped pen holder, and gave orders in a dignified and steady tone, "This Lord of Longyuan City does have some ability and potential, no wonder he can survive in the cracks of Hengzhou and gain a firm foothold. But his strength is increasing too fast, and it is difficult to control such a person. If you try to control it by force, it will only backfire, but this king never likes people who disobey! " Wen Shi, who was kneeling on one knee in the back, tried to figure out the meaning of King Zhenye's words and said, "Your Majesty, what do you mean?" "You went to Longyuan City last time and brought my goodwill and intentions. Now there is another half a year, and it is time for him to show his kindness." King Zhenye picked up the painting, put it in front of his eyes to admire it, and said calmly, "But these six months will also give him more time to develop, let his ambition grow, and make his mind change a lot. Gongye Zhengtai, will you give up recruiting him? Now, there is a new kind of poison on the battlefield of Cangzhou where the Ji family is stationed. It is said that this poison comes from the Yellow Turban Sect. Is there anyone in the Yellow Turban Sect who is proficient in this art?" Wen Shiyong's forehead suddenly broke out in sweat. He understood the meaning of King Zhenye's words, and a nameless anger rose in his heart. What a good Lord of Longyuan City! He actually pretended not to cooperate with the Yellow Turbans, but ended up secretly colluding with them. This proved that his last efforts were a dereliction of duty and that he was fooled. The king did not punish him, which was already giving him a chance. Wen Shiyong immediately knelt on his knees and said, "Your Majesty, please give me instructions. I will definitely make amends for my sins this time." King Zhenye spoke calmly, emphasizing each word, "Sowing discord and using it for your own benefit!" Wen Shiyong's heart moved and he immediately understood King Zhenye's intention. However, since the king has paid so much attention to the Lord of Longyuan City, he must have known about the innate magic weapon in his hand that assists in rapid cultivation. Why doesn't he have any thoughts about it at this time? He pondered for a moment and felt that the king would temporarily need this important chess piece that had taken root in Hengzhou, so he tried to keep it in his hands. After using it for the sake of usefulness, the innate divine weapon will naturally not be able to escape from your hands. "I understand. Your Majesty is wise. I will do it right away."
