Jiang Yuebai took root beside the bitter grass and refused to leave no matter how it cried.
I finally found someone with intelligence. Can't I ask him how to make grass
"Hmm~ How can there be grass without knowing how to make it? You're annoying~"
The idea conveyed by the bitter vine made Jiang Yuebai feel like a woman with a soft waist, so fragile that she could only cry while holding a handkerchief.
Little do they know that when the bitter vine grass grows up, it will be as strong as a mountain and as powerful as the world.
Jiang Yuebai remembered that it was recorded in the "Compendium of Materia Medica" that bitter radish tasted bitter and could be used as medicine to clear away heat and remove fire, and could dissolve the chaotic spiritual energy in the body. It was one of the auxiliary medicines for the Jiangchen Pill for removing erysipelas.
But the roots of the bitter grass are poisonous. Its roots taste sweet and can be used to make poison. Those who are poisoned will start to melt from the internal organs. The poison will make people feel no pain and feel as comfortable as soaking in warm water, and die in exhaustion.
"Oh~ I eat meat. Don't your cloud grass absorb the moonlight to grow? Why are you asking me?"
Jiang Yuebai grew two small white leaves from the white vine. This time she learned her lesson and locked the spiritual energy in the roots. She also rubbed the leaves in the soil, but they were all dirty and not shiny at all.
The bitter vine beside him sneered, "Your fragrance spreads ten miles away, no matter how much dirt you rub, it's useless. If you don't want to be bitten, you have to make your leaves bitter like me."
Huh? That makes sense!
"How do we do it?" Jiang Yuebai asked.
The bitter vine swayed its withered yellow and slender leaves, "Hmm~ Are you from the plant tribe? You don't even know such basic common sense? And this is all the instinct of plants and trees?"
Jiang Yuebai scratched the leaf on the right with the leaf on the left. "To be honest, I lost my memory after being hit by a monkey. My intelligence is a little damaged. I can't remember many things."
As he spoke, Jiang Yuebai sucked in a ball of spiritual energy and slapped it into the leaves of the bitter vine.
"Small gifts are not enough to show respect."
The whole grass of the bitter vine shook, and dust fluttered in the air.
"Burp~ You actually gave me spiritual energy?!" Bitterwort exclaimed in disbelief.
Jiang Yuebai scratched the leaves, "Is it not possible?"
"Ah~ In the forest, apart from the tribes that live together, all energy has to be plundered by oneself, just like... look at that red-backed rat."
The bitter vine pointed to the distance with its slender leaves. Jiang Yuebai looked over and saw a skinny red-backed rat sniffing and digging everywhere.
"I sucked all the water from this grassland into its roots, so it can't find any water to drink."
The red-backed rat is just an ordinary rat, not that smart. It couldn't find water, so it could only nibble on a nearby clump of bitter grass.
The red-backed rat is very small and starts to gnaw from the lower part of the bitter grass. The leaves of the bitter grass are slender and the more pointed they are, the more bitter they taste.
The bitter taste is a bit unpalatable at first, but it can provide the red-backed mouse with some moisture. As it gnaws down, sweetness and more moisture seep out as it approaches the root, making the red-backed mouse unable to stop and eat more and more.
Finally, of course, the poison in the roots seeped into the red-backed rat's body, and it fell next to the grass. The roots of the bitter vine emerged from the soil, wrapped up the red-backed rat's body and ate it.
"The red-backed rat doesn't have much spiritual power, it can only fill the gaps between teeth."
"Why don't you just make the whole grass sweet? Wouldn't that attract bigger animals to come and eat their fill all at once?"
The bitter vine shook its leaves, "Oh~ I'm so weak, how can I stand being eaten by those big beasts? Of course I have to be a little bitter, so that they will despise me and stop eating me."
Jiang Yuebai's mind swept across the dry grassland, and a group of huge fire rhinos came over with their families, lowered their heads to eat grass, and defecated as they ate.
"Hmm~ A gift from the Fire Rhino. I love the Fire Rhino~"
"Zhizhi, do you want some?"
Jiang Yuebai's leaves shrank, "Uh~ No need."
"It's delicious, how can you dislike it?"
The bitter vine swayed, not letting go of any poop, absorbing and swallowing it all.
"My leaves can help the fire rhinoceros eliminate impurities in its body, and these impurities are the best nutrients for me, allowing my roots to grow better and stronger~"
Jiang Yuebai probably understood a little bit about how plants and trees survive.
In fact, if she thinks about the process of growing spiritual plants, she will understand that they need to absorb sunlight and rain, and also need to be fertilized, so that they can thrive.
But the spiritual plants cared for in the spiritual fields are different from those in the forest. There is no one to protect them, and no one to fertilize and bring rain to them. They have to rely on themselves for everything.
Jiang Yuebai secretly set two important goals for himself.
First, it turns bitter to prevent being bitten again, or it can even make itself poisonous, which can be done by absorbing other poisonous plants.
Second, eat shit (crossed out)
She should just do the first thing first. Things should be done one by one, and one should not be too anxious when making grass.
In addition, bitter radish is a carnivorous plant. Although she doesn't mind eating meat, Yunzhi grass itself does not eat meat. She has to find a vegetarian grass to ask for advice.
"Kuluoluo, I still have a few questions to ask you..."
Jiang Yuebai pulled back the roots far away and coiled them firmly around the rhizome of the bitter vine. The two white leaves were almost sticking to the bitter vine.
The bitter vine suddenly shivered, and there was a feeling that a storm was coming.
"Were you born bitter or did you become bitter later? What was the process of becoming bitter like? And how did you open your spiritual wisdom? Besides eating meat and shit, do you have any other methods of cultivation? What do you usually rely on to improve your cultivation?"
"Are you going to stay here forever, or can you go somewhere else? To what extent do plants need to cultivate before they can transform? In the forest, besides guarding against herbivores, what else should we guard against? Is there a place where our plant demon tribe can gather together to exchange cultivation experiences? And..."
Bitterroot: (＠_＠*)
Not far away, a fire rhinoceros that was eating grass suddenly stopped and found that the grass in its mouth was more bitter than before, and the grass on the entire grassland suddenly became wilted.
Huo Xi looked up in confusion. It was cloudy but not the scorching sun. What happened to the bitter grass
Three days later, Jiang Yuebai finally figured out the basics. He put away the leaves once again, focused his mind on the roots of the white vine, and wandered from underground towards the rainforest farther away.
Along the way, as long as it was night, she would stop, and when everything was quiet, she would use her vines to climb up the trees, and absorb the moonlight in a place where there was no obstruction and no animals.
The overall strength of the Little White Grass increases rapidly, making her leaves stronger and stronger. She begins to feel more spiritual energy from the heaven and earth, and can try to perform some minor magic.
The demon realm is extremely vast for a small white grass. Jiang Yuebai encountered not many small grass monsters along the way. Most of them were just ordinary plants without intelligence.
She would not let go of any of the poisonous creatures that were not intelligent at all, and would absorb all of them and turn herself into a poisonous cloud fungus.
More than ten days later, Jiang Yuebai finally found the Wanmusen mentioned by Kuluocao, the main gathering place of the plant demon clan.
