Chapter 373: Dig a hole, bury some soil, and count one, two, three, four, five
Qiurong was frightened by Qin Shaoyou and was holding the kitchen door, ready to escape at any moment. While shaking his head, he gestured towards the lobby where the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch was enshrined.
Qin Shaoyou understood what she meant: "Are you trying to say that it was Grandmaster's order for me to plant the branches of the Hibiscus Ghost Tree? You don't know whether you can do it or not?"
Qiurong nodded quickly, indicating that this was what she meant, and did not forget to give Qin Shaoyou a gesture of approval.
Qin Shaoyou couldn't laugh or cry. It felt weird to be praised for being smart? It was like...as if he was a trained little animal?
He waved his hand and asked: "Then did the Patriarch tell you how to plant this branch?"
After all, the Hibiscus Ghost Tree is not an ordinary tree. There must be a lot of care in planting methods and site selection. If planted randomly, the plant will most likely not survive.
After listening to Qin Shaoyou's words, Qiurong turned around and drifted out of the kitchen. On the way, she didn't forget to look back and waved to Qin Shaoyou, gesturing for him to follow.
Qin Shaoyou put down the kitchen knife, picked up the branches of the Fusang ghost tree, and followed Qiurong out of the kitchen.
Although the sky was already dark at the moment, Qin Shaoyou could still clearly see the surrounding situation with the help of the faint starlight and the candlelight coming from some houses in the Demon Suppression Department.
Qiurong took Qin Shaoyou straight to the back of the lobby where the statue of the founder of Jiutiandang Mo was enshrined.
This position is due north of the Demon Suppression Division. It belongs to the Kan position on the Bagua, and Kan belongs to water and can produce wood.
It seems that Qin Shaoyou guessed right. He was really particular about the location for planting the hibiscus ghost tree.
Qiurong slipped around on the dirt floor behind the lobby, looking left and right, and finally locked on a location.
She floated over and compared it carefully to make sure she was not mistaken. Then she tapped the ground with her toes and signaled Qin Shaoyou to plant the branches of the Fusang Ghost Tree here.
“Are there any particular methods of planting?”
Qin Shaoyou walked over and took out an engineering shovel from his body while asking.
This engineer shovel was made by the craftsmen of the Demon Suppression Division when he was still in the Demon Division of Luocheng Town.
It can be used to dig holes to bury corpses, to chop ghosts and monsters, and to use it as pots, shovels and other cooking utensils. It can be called a multi-function.
But Qiurong looked straight at it.
She couldn't figure out where Qin Shaoyou took out this shovel - when she went to collect Qin Shaoyou's dirty and wet clothes before, Qin Shaoyou had already taken out all the weapons and equipment hidden on his body. Although she saw a full
Weapons and equipment, but did not expect that these were actually hidden by Qin Shaoyou.
What's more, her attention at that time was not on those weapons and equipment...
As for Qin Shaoyou's inquiry, Qiurong didn't know how to answer, and could only look at the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch enshrined in the lobby.
Qin Shaoyou also followed her and looked at the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch.
From the incense burner in front of the statue of the Patriarch, a line of green smoke slowly floated up, turning into two lines of words in mid-air:
"Dig a hole, bury some soil, count one, two, three, four, five; plant branches and grow a tree. In fact, this is simple."
"..."
Qin Shaoyou looked confused.
What is this? When did the Patriarch’s statue learn to make jingles?
But is it that simple to plant a hibiscus ghost tree? Just dig a hole and bury it with some soil.
Although he was skeptical, Qin Shaoyou decided to do it.
Because compared to the Patriarch, he didn't know how to plant the Fusang Ghost Tree.
Anyway, it is best if the seeds are alive, but if they are not alive... these branches can also be used for cooking and eating after washing.
After figuring this level out, Qin Shaoyou no longer hesitated. He immediately dug a hole according to the method taught by Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch, put the branches of the Fusang Ghost Tree in, then buried them with soil, and actually counted them.
One, two, three, four, five.
As soon as he finished counting, Qin Shaoyou felt that the aura around him seemed to have changed in some way.
He raised his eyebrows slightly, felt carefully, and found that the energy of the five elements around him began to flow towards the branches of the Fuso Ghost Tree.
"Is it possible that this two, three, four, five is a spell that activates the energy of the five elements?" Qin Shaoyou was a little surprised.
However, he also knew that the changes in the Qi of the Five Elements were mostly related to the location selection and the statue of the founder of Jiutiandang Demon.
But no matter what, these branches of the Hibiscus Ghost Tree were successfully planted.
And looking at the current situation where the energy of the five elements is gathered and nourished, there should be no problem with farming.
I just don’t know how long it will take for it to grow into a big tree so that I can have a steady supply of fusang ghost trees to eat?
At the same time, there is another confusion in Qin Shaoyou's mind: This ghost fusang tree seems to eat people and swallow ghosts? At least the fusang ghost tree in the underground cave is like this. Even because there are too many cannibals and ghosts,
A small hell has also developed.
Then will the branches of the hibiscus ghost tree I just planted have to eat humans and ghosts to grow?
If you just swallow ghosts, it's easy to deal with it. If you encounter evil ghosts that cause harm to people in the future, you can kill some and arrest some.
The ones that were killed were used for cooking, and those that were captured were fed to the Fuso Ghost Tree.
It's not a loss anyway. If the fusang ghost tree grows new branches, won't they go into your belly?
Oh...and enter the belly of the Patriarch's statue.
But if it is cannibalism, it is not allowed. Even if there are no fusang ghost trees to eat in the future, its roots must be dug up and destroyed.
However, since this ghost fusang tree was planted by the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch, there should be no need to eat people.
However, we still cannot take it lightly and need to monitor it more.
After all, they had all experienced the power of the Fuso Ghost Tree in the underground caves.
Thinking of this, Qin Shaoyou suddenly raised his eyebrows and thought to himself: "The Fusang ghost tree can create an environment. If these branches are planted and grow into a big tree, will they also have this magical ability? If it can be done, then
In the future, in the Demon Town Department of Mianyuan County, besides the 'concierge' like the Jiutian Demon Patriarch, wouldn't there be an additional gatekeeper tree?"
Who can say no to a tree that is both a gatekeeper and a food source?
Qin Shaoyou looked at the loaded fusang ghost branches and showed a smile that said, "Grow up quickly, I will be delicious."
This frightened Qiurong beside her so much that she stepped back repeatedly, and finally simply disappeared and hid back in her human-skinned ghost drum.
"You are a ghost after all. Are you embarrassed to be scared like this by me? I won't fatten you up and eat you." Qin Shaoyou shook his head.
Putting away the engineering shovel, he saluted the statue of the Patriarch of Jiutian Dangmo and said: "Grandmaster, whether we can eat casserole ghost pot more often in the future depends on whether it can grow. You should pay more attention...
By the way, it won't eat people, right?"
Jiutiandangmo Patriarch Statue’s answer is simple.
Green smoke rose from the incense burner and turned into a big word "Roll".
Although the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch made no sound, such a big word still made Qin Shaoyou feel as if there was thunder in his ears.
"No, I can't. Why are you shouting so loudly?"
Qin Shaoyou muttered quietly.
Although the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch only had the word "go", he knew from this word and the attitude of the Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch statue that most of the branches of the Fusang Ghost Tree would not eat people.
So he felt relieved and quickly rolled into the kitchen.
The statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch's eyes no longer looks kind. If he runs faster without realizing it, he will be beaten and punished.
After he left, the green smoke rising from the incense burner floated straight out of the lobby and enveloped the branches of the Fuso ghost tree.
After a while, the light smoke dispersed.
The branches of this hibiscus ghost tree also changed their appearance.
It looks like a sapling of a peach tree.
It is normal to plant peach trees in the Demon Suppression Department. After all, Peach Tree is also known as 'Dragon Subduing Wood' and 'Ghost Horror Wood'. It is a material that can suppress evil and ghosts. Therefore, in many Demon Suppression Departments, peach trees are planted.
There are peach trees planted.
Mianyuan County Town Demon Division has also planted several trees. There is such an extra 'peach tree' behind the lobby. Others will not be surprised when they see it.
Qin Shaoyou returned to the kitchen and continued to be busy.
Although the branches of the Hibiscus ghost tree were taken and planted, some fragments of the Hibiscus ghost tree are still included in the mysterious recipe.
My dream of eating clay pot and ghost pot as a midnight snack tonight can still come true.
Qin Shaoyou took out the fragments of fuso ghost wood from the mysterious recipe, cleaned them, took out the casserole, and prepared to cook the casserole ghost pot.
The statue of Jiutiandang Mo Patriarch in the lobby would glance towards this side from time to time.
That is to say, the old man is made of wood and has no saliva to drool. Otherwise, the incense in the incense burner in front of him would be extinguished by his saliva...
