Beiyin Great Sage

Chapter 516 Growing Mushrooms

Jimin Lane.

The houses here were built by the imperial court specifically for the victims of the disaster, and they could only provide shelter and shelter from the wind and rain.

The road in front of the door is narrow and muddy after the rain. In addition, there is no place to dispose of the excrement and urine mixed in, which makes the smell even worse.

but,

After entering an abalone shop, you won't smell the smell for a long time.

People who live here are already used to the environment of Jimin Lane.

People were coming and going on the street. Children were playing and adults were calling. Although everyone was dressed in rags, their eyes had brilliance.

"Paji... bangji..."

Walking in the alley with muddy feet and looking at the vibrant scene in front of him, Zhou Yi couldn't help but have a smile on his face.

Thank you!

Fortunately, I have no memory of the Ruins Realm.

Hundreds of years of complex experiences have made the 'body' become cold and ruthless, as if it has lost all the emotions and desires that normal people should have.

The world collapses without changing its color.

The extinction of hundreds of millions of living beings would not cause the slightest change.

He didn't want to be that kind of person.

That kind of calm and motionless mentality is no longer a human being. What's the point of living like this?

"Crunch..."

When the door opened, Ergou had already come back first. As he said, there were so many places to go down the mountain, so the possibility of catching him was very small.

"You are back."

Ergou, who had been squinting for a while, rubbed his eyes and grinned as if he thought of something:

"How was the harvest?"

"It's okay." Zhou Yi put down his cloth bag and said:

"Sold for seven grand."

There is a market for purchasing mountain mushrooms near the city gate. It is difficult to store these things, so naturally a few people sold them early and put them in their bags for safety.

"I have five." Uncle Zheng squatted down, rubbed his injured leg back and forth, and said:

"Your Aunt Bai also made two big bucks, plus the one given by Xiao Yi, there are three in total. Finally, the trip was not in vain."

"Hehe..." Ergou chuckled and said:

"How much do you think I earn?"

"How much?" Aunt Bai looked curious:

"It must be quite a lot, right?"

"That's it!" Ergou stretched out three fingers and gestured in front of him:

"This number!"

"Three..." Aunt Bai's eyes widened:

"Thirty bucks?"

"That's right!" Ergou patted his thigh:

"This deal was done forcefully."

"Oh my God." Aunt Bai's wrist trembled slightly and her voice trembled:

"Really thirty?"

"Of course." Ergou raised his eyebrows, took out a money bag from his arms, shook it in his hand, then took out one and handed it over:

"Aunt Bai, you don't have to prepare pancakes for me tomorrow. I bought my own meat pancakes."

"Oh." Aunt Bai's face froze, she looked at the big money in his hand, hesitated for a moment, then took it, nodded:

"Yes, Ergou is promising. Thirty yuan a day can make one or two silver a month, and he can find a house in the city for a year."

"Hehe..." Ergou looked excited, but he still said politely:

“There aren’t many months to pick mushrooms, so you can’t earn that much.”

"That's right." Uncle Zheng said with a wooden face:

“Mount mushrooms are more common after rains and are not easy to find in normal times. Even the mountain residents have not heard of anyone making a living by picking mushrooms.”

"And there are gangs, so it's better to be careful."

Ergou's face turned dark.

"Go to bed early." Zhou Yi walked closer and patted his shoulder:

"It's been a busy day, take a good rest."

"snort!"

Ergou hummed softly, put the money bag in his arms, curled up and lay down.

Zhou Yi lay on his back on the linen, relaxing his body after a day of running around. He could clearly feel the pain in his waist and muscles.

The sea of ​​consciousness light curtain emerged.

Name: Zhou Yi

Age: fifteen

Breakthrough (1/100)

Miscellaneous Skills: Mountain Climbing Proficiency (32/100)

Um?

Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows.

There was no such thing as miscellaneous skills yesterday, but today we did a lot of climbing in order to pick mushrooms. Could it be that there were more climbs because of that?

His thoughts turned and he shook his head slightly.

Both his original self and his self on Earth have experience climbing mountains, so this skill should have been there for a long time, but it was not shown.

Probably because I kept climbing today, it became visible.

skilled?

What will happen if the experience value reaches 100?

These are yet to be verified.

Close your eyes and gradually fall asleep.

"Um!"

"Ouch..."

The day after fatigue, muscle soreness is unavoidable, especially Ergou, who was overly excited yesterday and had a distorted expression.

"Two dogs."

Aunt Bai looked concerned:

"Why don't you go today?"

"No!" Ergou gritted his teeth and said:

"There are only so many days to pick mushrooms. If you miss one day, you will earn less money for one day. I won't go to get the porridge later, and I will go pick mushrooms first."

As he spoke, he touched his chest.

I still have the meatloaf I bought yesterday, so I don’t have to queue up to get the gruel that’s just soup.

Zhou Yi rubbed his legs, as if thinking of something, he rummaged through his pile of miscellaneous items and found a tattered book.

Then his eyes lit up.

After receiving the porridge, he carried the bowl to a middle-aged man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks:

"Mr. Zhao."

Unlike other refugees, the middle-aged man wore a long gown. Although the clothes were very inconvenient to move around and were in tatters, he still wore them without changing them.

The man who was drinking porridge looked up when he heard the sound and subconsciously protected his bowl. Fang said slowly:

"Xiao Yi, what's the matter?"

"Mr. Zhao." Zhou Yi squatted down, handed his porridge to the other party, then took out the booklet from his arms and said with a smile:

"I would like to ask you a few words."

"Character?"

Looking at Zhou Yi, who was tall and thick, with a dull look on his face, Mr. Zhao had a funny look on his face, then he finished the porridge in his bowl and poured the porridge in Zhou Yi's bowl into his own bowl. At the same time, he spoke slowly, as if he was preaching. attitude:

"I just thought of learning how to read now. I'm a little too old, but it's never too late to learn such things. As the old saying goes: Live until you're old and you'll learn."

"Yes." Zhou Yi nodded repeatedly without arguing:

"Please also ask Mr. Zhao to read the content above."

"Read it again?" Mr. Zhao raised his eyebrows with disdain on his face:

"Can you remember it after reading it once?"

As he spoke, he took the booklet and glanced at the cover:

"'Book of Mountain Treasures and Hundreds of Medicines', your book is not complete, it is only a part of a medicine book, or a very small part of it."

"It doesn't matter." Zhou Jia took out a piece of sharpened charcoal from his pocket and said:

"Mr. Zhao, please speak."

"Yes." Mr. Zhao straightened his clothes, took a sip of the gruel first, and then said slowly:

"The flat-headed cloud mushroom is beneficial to the intestines and stomach, resolves phlegm and regulates qi..."

Zhou Yi held a 'charcoal pencil' in his hand and marked it with simplified characters. Fortunately, the other party spoke slowly, so he could barely keep up.

"Truffles, nourish qi and blood, nourish essence..."

As Mr. Zhao read, he looked at his movements curiously, puzzled. What are those ghostly drawings and talismans?

I don’t understand, so I ignore it.

The booklet has a total of six sheets of paper, and there are simply sketched images on them. There is not much text, and I can read it in just a cup of tea.

"There are seventeen kinds of herbs in total, mostly mountain mushrooms and truffles."

Gently stroking his beard, Mr. Zhao smiled lightly and said:

"I'm a little tired after reading today. If there's anything I can't remember, come back here tomorrow and ask me. Of course it won't be in vain."

Then he pointed at Zhou Yi's empty bowl.

"Yes Yes."

Zhou Yi closed the book with a smile:

"I see."

next time?

no more chance!

…………

Perhaps due to the excitement of yesterday's harvest, more people went into the mountains to pick mushrooms today than yesterday, and the waves were like ants emerging from their burrows and swarming into the mountains.

There are tens of thousands of people, and there are no edges or edges.

Zhou Yi looked back and his face turned pale.

"It seems that the good days for picking mushrooms are shorter than expected." Uncle Zheng held a machete and chopped down the vines blocking the road in front:

"Tens of thousands of people can chew up all the bark on a mountaintop in a few days, so a few mushrooms won't be enough unless you go inside."

Zhou Yi nodded silently.

He also escaped from the disaster area, but he saw with his own eyes that the refugees gnawed away the mountains, drank up the river water, and sometimes even ate the soil.

Wherever the refugees pass, nothing is left.

As for going deeper, we spend most of the day on the road, coming and going all day long, and there is no time to pick mushrooms at all.

Unless you go to the cliffs where no one dares to go.

Um……

As soon as the thought moved, the light curtain of the sea of ​​​​consciousness emerged.

Mountain Climbing: Proficient (34/100)

The experience value has increased by two points. If you experience it carefully, you can really feel that climbing the rock is easier. Uncle Zheng even praised it repeatedly.

"Let's take a step and see."

Shaking his head, Zhou Yi walked towards the place where he tested the mushroom cultivation technique yesterday.

The dead branches and leaves are still there.

Below is a dead tree covered with ax marks.

When he lifted up the dead branches and leaves, he saw a scene that made his breath quicken, his eyes shine, and his heart beat loudly.

But I saw small mushrooms that were just beginning to appear densely on the dead wood.

Although the mushrooms are still small, as long as they are given a certain amount of time, they will definitely grow into a group of mushrooms.

There is a door!

After leaving yesterday, his seemingly random chopping and hitting were actually the mushroom-growing technique. By giving vibration stimulation, the inert hyphae were reactivated to achieve the purpose of growing mushrooms.

As the saying goes: There are layers of yellow clouds and no mushrooms can be seen. If you ask for help, don’t blame heaven.

Among them, the yellow cloud is the apparent state of the hyphae, and it is also the prerequisite for performing the mushroom technique. Otherwise, beating it will be useless.

However, Zhou Yi remembered that it would take several days for the mushroom technique to take effect. How long had it been before the mushrooms had already appeared?

Could it be the difference in environment?

In any case, mushroom cultivation should be feasible in this world, and the effect may even be better than in the previous life.

"Crash..."

The sound of footsteps came from behind, which also made Zhou Yi frown.

Although the technique of growing mushrooms is good, it takes a certain amount of time from planting to fruiting. The length varies depending on the type of mushroom, and some can even take several years.

Nowadays, there are mushroom pickers all over the mountains and plains, and it is impossible to avoid people.

I am afraid that the mushrooms that I have worked so hard to grow will fall into the hands of others before I can pick them.

unless……

Go to farther places, or dangerous places.

"snort!"

With a soft hum, Zhou Yi picked out a few larger oyster mushrooms, and then started climbing the rocks not far away using his hands and feet.

Mountain mushrooms can also be found in the gaps between rocks, and they are not easily discovered. Even most of the valuable mountain mushrooms are hidden in dangerous places.

A busy day.

Gained nine big coins.
