Chapter 6651
: As Spiritual Herb Fertilizer
Scarcity makes things valuable; the fewer good things there are, the more valuable they are.
The magical herbs and medicines in the Haoyue Realm are extremely rare and are basically monopolized by the major sects.
It is difficult to meet one's own needs and it is almost impossible to flow out to the outside world.
Due to limitations on site and environment, the types of spiritual medicines produced within each major sect vary.
Occasionally some of it flows out and is used for trading in exchange for various extraordinary items that are needed.
Practitioners within the sect often cannot obtain what they desire, let alone independent practitioners from outside.
If you know that True Man Liehuo is a casual cultivator, you will understand his behavior and feelings. The spiritual herbs that he cares so much about are being picked and destroyed at will. Such a thing is absolutely intolerable.
Beating the other person up was already showing mercy, at least he saved his life.
However, the elixirs in this city, although seemingly without an owner, actually all have owners.
Neither the Taoist Master Liehuo nor the monk who stole the medicine were qualified to pick the fruits.
However, from beginning to end, Tang Zhen did not impose any restrictions and tacitly allowed the people in the city to pick spiritual herbs and fruits.
Many spiritual fruits and medicines were eaten by the people in the city, resulting in shocking waste.
The six monks also felt heartbroken at first, but they gradually got used to it after seeing it more often.
The good news is that the magical herbs and fruits are so effective that ordinary people will develop resistance after eating one serving.
For a long time, he would instinctively reject spiritual medicines and fruits and would absolutely refuse to eat more than one bite.
In fact, its own protection function takes effect, preventing spiritual energy from damaging meridians and internal organs, leading to sudden death.
Nowadays, the residents of Green Water City turn a blind eye to magical herbs and fruits, and stay away from them when picking fruits.
Precious magical herbs and medicines were thus preserved and grew at an extremely fast rate.
A day of change is like a hundred years of time.
Although they already knew that Green Water City was full of incredible things, Pan Song and other monks were still deeply shocked.
Being in Green Water City, I actually have a strange feeling that one day in the real world is equivalent to a hundred years here.
The monk who stole the medicine was extremely angry and couldn't help shouting, "These spiritual herbs are all ownerless. Whoever has the ability can get them. Why do you claim them as your own?"
When Taoist Liehuo heard this, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
He didn't want to pay attention to the other party, but with Pan Song and other monks present, some things had to be made clear.
To avoid misunderstanding and thinking that he is bullying others by taking advantage of his power.
"You yourself admit that whoever has the ability can obtain it. If I beat you up and use my strength to stop you from picking the spiritual herbs, what's wrong with that?"
The monk who was stealing the elixir was surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect such a response.
This statement is not wrong. Taoist Liehuo did obtain it by his own ability, and no one has ever said that violent robbery is not allowed.
Just as he was about to open his mouth to explain, Pan Song suddenly spoke up in a cold tone, "I want to remind you two that these spiritual herbs are not really ownerless. It may be okay to pick one or two, but your destructive plundering is likely to cause trouble."
Upon hearing this, the monk who had been stealing the elixir trembled slightly and revealed an expression of fear.
When he accidentally came into this place before, he was surprised and happy. He did not rush to act, but hid quietly in the grass.
After observing for a long time and confirming that there was no problem, he mustered up the courage to take action.
He planned to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune and bring more spiritual herbs out to sell.
No one can guarantee that they will be able to enter this place in the future, so they must not miss this God-given opportunity.
With this thought in mind, he began to pick the herbs crazily, not caring whether the method was correct or not.
There was also a severe shortage of containers for storing elixirs, so they were simply stuffed directly into bags.
Such an operation would cause serious loss of medicinal properties. No wonder the surrounding monks were so angry that they gritted their teeth.
Use the standard method to pick the herbs, and it’s okay to pick a few extra. At least they won’t be wasted or damaged.
Anyone who encounters such an opportunity hopes to gain more benefits.
After learning the details of what happened, Pan Song and others had the same idea that the monk who stole the medicine deserved to be beaten.
If they were the owner of the spiritual herb, it would not be as simple as just beating him up, they might even kill him outright.
At this moment, the monk who stole the medicine finally woke up from his unwillingness to be wronged and realized that his situation was extremely dangerous.
Taking something without permission is a crime, and the mysterious existence in Green Water City will not let it go. The uneasiness in his heart made him feel at a loss, and he looked at Green Water City with fear in his eyes.
Faced with the mocking looks of several monks, this guy suddenly turned around and ran in the opposite direction of Green Water City.
He held the space backpack filled with spiritual medicine tightly in his hand and tried to take it outside.
Looking at the fleeing monk, True Man Liehuo did not chase after him, but just watched silently.
Pan Song and the other six monks did the same, looking at the escapee's back with gloomy eyes.
This greedy guy is probably going to be in big trouble.
There were many monks outside the city, also watching intently, their eyes full of mocking anticipation.
The monk who stole the medicine was running when suddenly he started to stand still, but he was completely unaware of it.
He continued running without stopping, digging a sand pit in the ground, but he still couldn't stop.
How could the soft sand withstand the digging by the monk's feet? Soon the sand pit buried half of the monk's body.
The monk who stole the medicine seemed to realize something at this moment and gradually stopped running.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a strange scene appeared.
Grass sprouts suddenly grew on the monk's head and grew at an extremely fast speed.
Not long after, a string of bright flowers appeared above his head.
Things like vines grew out from his eyes, ears, mouth and nose, wrapping around his body like armor.
"don't want……"
The monk who stole the medicine struggled, but the sound suddenly stopped.
The monk who was half buried in the sand had green leaves and flowers growing on his body, which would tremble from time to time.
The entire transformation process took only a few minutes.
Witnessing this scene, many monks remained silent, but a trace of fear flashed in their eyes.
The monks who stole and destroyed the elixir received the punishment they deserved, which was the result many monks wanted.
This hated guy has ruined the elixirs that many monks wanted and has become a public enemy.
Even if he escapes, he will not have a good life as he will definitely be wanted and hunted by the monks.
But the punishment he suffered chilled the monks to the core and filled them with an unspeakable fear.
"Have you noticed that the flowers and plants growing on that guy seem to be the elixirs he picked to cause trouble before?"
After observing, a monk spoke out his findings with deep fear in his tone.
After discovering the truth, they will become even more panicked.
“The body is rooted in the earth, acting as fertilizer for the stolen spiritual grass, cultivating it anew.
I don’t know if this unlucky guy can withstand the extraction of so many spiritual herbs. If he can’t, he will surely turn into a pile of dry bones.”
Another monk spoke up and told about the situation of stealing medicine and repairing water.
The monks were accustomed to life and death and were not frightened by the sight of death, but this strange way of death was indeed terrifying.
The monks felt horrified when they imagined being buried in the sand, still conscious but unable to move, with all kinds of plants growing inside their bodies.
The monks from all sides finally realized at this moment the horror and danger hidden behind the beautiful scenery of Green Water City.
At the same time, they also realized that the fairyland filled with spiritual herbs was definitely not a place that they had reserved in advance and could plunder at will.
Unless you have enough skills to ensure you can go there and come back, you may lose your life.
Those monks who had always been hoping for luck and only wanted to take advantage suddenly felt like backing off at this moment.
Certain things that are extremely valuable and easily obtainable may actually be deadly traps.
As long as you are greedy and have a sense of luck, you will jump into it actively.
These are just the known dangers. Once war breaks out, perhaps even more terrible means will be used.
Whether or not to stay and face the possible risks has become a question that many monks consider.
