Li Changsheng thought for a while, grabbed a withered green bamboo, and pulled it out with a little force. It wasn't that Li Changsheng was extremely powerful, but that its roots were completely withered, without any moisture.
"Sure enough, during the gestation process, the natural elf's embryo will forcibly absorb a certain range of plant essences, causing these green bamboos to become its nourishment. This is why all the surrounding green bamboos withered except for the natural elf's green bamboo. The current situation is very bad. If there is not enough plant essence, this natural elf is likely to die in its womb!"
Thinking of this, Li Changsheng's expression became a little more serious. The birth of a natural elf is extremely harsh. It must absorb a large amount of plant essence during its breeding process. If the plant essence is insufficient, there may be a possibility of miscarriage.
Even if it is born by luck, it is likely to cause congenital deficiencies, and its measurements and size must be inferior to normal natural elves.
Li Changsheng once read a book about elves, which listed methods to save natural elf embryos. There are many methods. The simplest method is to fertilize the surrounding land to enhance the nutrients and fertility of the land, such as plant ash, rice fields, pond mud, etc.
However, this method takes a lot of time to slowly increase the soil strength, it is difficult to provide a large amount of plant essence in a short period of time, and at most it can only delay the trend.
"Since one doesn't work, then use three prongs!" Li Changsheng touched his chin and quickly made a decision.
He first took out a pocket, which contained a pile of colorful demon cores, which he had accumulated over the years, all of which were low-level demon cores.
Soon, Li Changsheng picked out the green demon core representing the wood system. He was not rich, and there were only five wood system demon cores in total.
The wood-type demon core is the energy source of the wood-type goblins, and according to the grade of the demon core, it contains a certain amount of plant essence.
Without hesitation, Li Changsheng pasted all these wood-type monster cores on the roots of the green bamboo that gave birth to the natural elves.
Almost at the moment of contact, the five wood-type monster cores changed, slightly emitting a dark green brilliance, which was continuously absorbed by the green bamboo, and finally became the nourishment of the natural elves.
The so-called rain comes after a long drought, and the embryos of the natural elves are absorbed very quickly, causing these wood-type demon cores to slowly fade at a speed that is almost visible to the naked eye.
This kind of absorption speed will only last for half a day at most, and the energy of these wood-type demon cores will be exhausted.
"Not enough, far from enough! The energy contained in the lower demon core is too little!"
Li Changsheng shook his head, and immediately took Aixi away from the bamboo forest after covering up the wood-type demon core with soil.
There are thousands of servants in Li's manor. Although Li Changsheng does not have a personal maid, he also has two servants who do odd jobs.
Under Li Changsheng's order, although the two servants were full of bewilderment, they obeyed and hurriedly dropped their work to collect various fertilizers for Li Changsheng.
There is a lot of ready-made fertilizer in the manor, and it is easy to collect manure and plant ash, so it is more troublesome to get the pond mud, but it is not difficult for them.
"Thank you for your hard work. These are rewards for you! Also, don't spread the word about this, or don't blame me for being rude. Did you hear me clearly?"
In order to avoid leaking the news and avoid being noticed by interested people, Li Changsheng rewarded them and at the same time warned them sternly.
Just in case, Li Changsheng didn't have the idea of letting his servants fertilize, but hid the fertilizer in a corner of the courtyard.
When it was dark, Li Changsheng dressed up specially, dressed up as a servant, and carried fertilizer on a pole. With the help of Ai Xi, he sneaked into the bamboo forest while avoiding everyone's eyes.
"Ai Xi, you stay here and watch carefully. If you find any movement, remember to use your roar to remind me!"
In the outskirts of the bamboo forest, Li Changsheng specially kept Ai Xi. With the value of a natural elf, once discovered by others, it is very likely that they will be picked peaches.
Soon, Li Changsheng came to the depths of the bamboo forest. He put down the fertilizer and did not fertilize immediately. Using the dim moonlight, he pulled out all the withered green bamboos and transplanted some from nearby.
This process seems simple, but it is extremely troublesome, especially not to make too much noise to avoid attracting nearby patrolling teams.
Ai Xi hid on the outskirts of the bamboo forest, with its ears pricked up, trying to listen to the movement around it, and was always ready to remind Li Changsheng.
Time passed slowly, the moon set and the sun rose, and after a night of hard work, Li Changsheng combed the surrounding land, and I also fertilized the transplanted green bamboos, which can continue to provide nutrients for the natural spirits.

After everything was done, Li Changsheng sat down on the ground, his body was covered with dirt, and there were even a few scratches on his hands.
Li Changsheng suffered a lot from the dark environment.
But the result is undoubtedly gratifying. Under Li Changsheng's careful care, the green bamboo that bred the natural spirits has completely recovered from the withered and yellow upper half, and the emerald green bamboo body gives people a feeling of greenness.
After taking a breath, Li Changsheng released his mental power to check the status of the natural elves.
[Fairy Name]: Natural Elf (breeding stage)
[Fairy Realm]: None
[Fairy race]: low-level warrior
[Fairy Quality]: Unknown "The more plant essence absorbed, the greater the possibility of quality improvement"
[Fairy bloodline]: Elemental power (unknown)
[Fairy attribute]: Wood type
[Fairy Status]: Health
[Fairy Weakness]: Fire
Compared with yesterday, the state of the natural elf has changed, from malnutrition to healthy, as long as it continues, a healthy natural elf will be bred.
After withdrawing his mental power, Li Changsheng came to the green bamboo, pulled away the covered soil, and revealed five demon cores that were almost completely white.
"So fast!" Li Changsheng said with emotion. Judging from the color of the demon cores, their energy is about to run out, and they will be exhausted in a short time.
"The more plant essence absorbed, the greater the possibility of quality improvement!"
Thinking of the content in "", Li Changsheng couldn't help hesitating. If it was just an ordinary natural elf, he didn't need to do anything else, but if he wanted to obtain a higher quality natural elf, he had to pay a lot of wood-type demon cores.
Li Changsheng didn't want to give up, but the natural elves had a big deal to do. They wanted to buy or replace a large number of wood-type demon cores from other people, but they were afraid of being noticed by those who wanted to.
The most important thing is that Li Changsheng's financial resources are limited, even if all of them are used to purchase wood-type demon cores, it may be difficult to improve the quality of natural elves.
Of course, there is another way, which is to borrow money. It's just that he doesn't have many relatives and friends, and he doesn't have any suitable collateral in his hands. It seems that only his second uncle wants to borrow a large number of wood-type demon cores for free.
Although his second uncle is lazy and rarely participates in family affairs, he is very powerful and can even be compared to the elders of the family, so he is naturally rich.
After making a decision, Li Changsheng returned to the courtyard and met Li Haoqiong.
By the pond in the small courtyard, Li Haoqiong was sitting on a low stool with his back leaning against a willow tree, his eyes were closed, and he looked like he was sleeping.
Coming in front of Li Haoqiong, Li Changsheng was full of vigilance, and called softly: "Second Uncle!"
"No matter who you are, I will never forgive anyone who disturbs my sleep!" Li Haoqiong squinted his eyes and stood up, his aura of getting up was unusually terrifying, no matter who was in front of him, he punched Li Changsheng in the face.
"You don't hit someone in the face!" Li Changsheng seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and hurriedly squatted on the ground with his hands on his face, and what greeted him was Li Haoqiong's violent beating.
After a long time, Li Haoqiong stopped his movements, and turned to look at Li Changsheng with confused eyes, showing an expression of sudden realization.
"Ah, it's longevity!"
"It hurts! I knew it would happen, Second Uncle, I have reason to believe that you are jealous that I am more handsome than you, and want to destroy my handsome face, pull my charm to the same level as yours, and finally defeat me with your rich experience in picking up girls. I didn't expect you to be such a Second Uncle!"
Li Changsheng stood up with his head in his arms. He had ten thousand reasons to believe that Li Haoqiong was jealous of his handsome face.
"Ah, ah, how can such a thing happen! Well, looking at you, you must be looking for me for something? Shhh, don't tell me, let me guess!"
Li Haoqiong waved his hand, acting like I didn't mean it, and then changed the subject as quickly as possible.
As for whether he did it on purpose, only he himself knows.
"Second Uncle, don't change the subject!"
Li Changsheng didn't speak, and stared straight at Li Haoqiong, making his heart shudder.
Ignoring Li Changsheng's complaints, Li Haoqiong said in a joking tone: "I guess you found a natural elf that is being bred, and you are looking for me to borrow some resources to improve its quality?"
