Liszt can see the loss of magic power. He is not a magician and cannot explore the essential reason for the loss. But as a traveler with a scientific mind, he has his own unique insights.
"What's the biggest difference between shiitake mushroom ingredients and new ingredients?"
"According to what Bob Crooked Neck said, in fact, the growth conditions of most mushrooms are pretty much the same. At most, there are differences in temperature, humidity, and nutrient ratio."
"However, flame mushrooms can grow in the ingredients of shiitake mushrooms, which shows that it is not so repulsive to the ingredients of shiitake mushrooms. It has been so long to explore new ingredients, and various ratios have been tried, but it still cannot survive the flame mushroom species. This should not be a problem with the ingredients. "
"It's not about the ingredients, so what's the problem?"
After a while.
He infers that the biggest difference between the shiitake mushroom ingredients and the new ingredients is that there are shiitake mushrooms growing on the shiitake mushroom ingredients!
Shiitake mushrooms have been planted for many years, and no other mushrooms have invaded, but flame mushrooms have been produced, indicating that flame mushrooms are probably a variant of shiitake mushrooms. This variation may not form an independent new variety, but an associated variety in the growth of shiitake mushrooms.
Mushrooms are fungi.
Fungi are always strange. The hyphae of shiitake mushrooms and flame mushrooms may entangle and promote each other.
So, he said: "Mr. Gao Ertai, please go and inform the serfs who participated in the cultivation to mix the flame mushroom seeds with the shiitake mushroom seeds and see if it is possible."
"Mixed breeding?" Gao Ertai didn't quite understand, but he still did it.
Crooked-necked Bob heard Liszt's words, his spirits lifted: "My lord, Bob will try to mix and breed, and must cultivate flame mushrooms for my lord!"
"This shiitake mushroom shed, remember not to move around, and don't destroy the growth environment of the flame mushroom." Liszt then warned repeatedly.
It doesn't matter if the cultivation speed of the flame mushroom is slower, he has not yet reached the stage where he needs to take medicine to improve his fighting spirit.
But if he kills all the flame mushrooms, he will go crazy.
…
In a blink of an eye, five days passed.
Liszt would go around the bramble and cordyceps bushes every day to see the progress of fertilization and logging. The logging team has rich experience, especially after the blacksmith has created a batch of sharp axes, the tree cutting efficiency is faster. A large circle of trees around the bush had been cut down.
Basically, Cordyceps thorns can affect the trees in the area, and they are all cleared.
The fire dragon horse is quietly eating weeds. It is pregnant, but it can't be seen, and it is riding normally. According to Marcus, it doesn't matter if you continue to ride for a few months.
Inside the box, the thorn worm was lying on the jade powder, wriggling comfortably.
In the past few days, Liszt can clearly feel that the thorn bug's emotions are high and he is always in a state of excitement. This is very abnormal. Under normal circumstances, the emotional fluctuations of elf worms are very small - after all, no matter how magical the elf worm is, it is still a bug in essence, and you can't expect the worm to show emotions.
"Could it be that this little guy really wants to evolve?"
As soon as this idea came up, he quickly killed it, because the possibility of success is too small, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment in the end, it is better not to have unrealistic illusions.
At this time, Blair, who was in charge of supervision, came over.
"grown ups."
"Have you found anything?"
Blair was a little hesitant, but he still said: "I don't know if it's because of my fuss, but around the bushes, there are many thorny seedlings, which emerge from the soil like grass, and they are already as long as half a finger. .”
I frowned.
Liszt followed Blair to check these thorn seedlings.
Indeed, in the clearing where the trees have been cut down, thorn seedlings emerge from the fallen leaves one by one, very immature but very energetic.
Brambles are not similar to earth species, but simply a small thorny shrub that can grow up to the height of a person at most. It is non-toxic, does not bloom, and does not bear fruit. Its reproduction depends on the continuous expansion of roots and the growth of new seedlings. Strictly speaking, thorns are the ranks of weeds and trees, and thorn bugs are also wild spirits.
There are always a small number of naturally bred elves living in untouched wild jungles.
But the grass and trees in the wild are very messy and the land is barren, so the probability of elf insects being bred is very low. It is far inferior to the species cultivated by humans for a long time, and the number of elf insects bred is large.
Besides.
It is also difficult to guarantee the species of elf insects in the wild. It may be a weed or a poisonous fruit tree, and its use value is relatively low.
The thorn worms are contracted by humans, and their greatest use is to build hedges.
Especially some big nobles will plant a hedge around the manor to isolate the contact between the nobles and the common people.
In Huahua Town, the thorn worms are really not very useful - the outside of the castle has been transformed into a horse farm, and there is no need for hedges at all.
Anyway, it is also an elf worm, and Liszt still needs to cultivate it.
"Did such a large area of thorn seedlings grow out in the past two days?" He gently pulled out a seedling. It was very tender, but there was no trace of magic power flowing on it.
"At the beginning, I didn't pay much attention." Blair shook his head. "Not only did I not notice, but all the serfs didn't notice either. They seemed to grow overnight."
Liszt checked carefully.
It was indeed not the imagined "potion thorn", but just an ordinary thorn seedling.
He still decided to call out the smoke mission first to see the situation. When the smoke twisted into a serpentine script, he suddenly realized—"Complete the mission and reward the fast-growing species of thorns."
This means that the task of nourishing the Cordyceps thorns has been completed, but the reward is more regrettable, and there is no potion of thorns, just a kind of thorns that can grow rapidly.
"The fast-growing species of thorns, what's the use of this thing?" Liszt sighed in his heart. Not every smoke mission can bring rich rewards.
He no longer entangled, and turned to look at the newly released mission.
"Mission: Without the ravages of fruit-stealing monkeys, the fragrant coconut trees can finally bear mature fragrant coconuts, but the fragrant coconuts of one of the fragrant coconut trees seem to be a little different, please find out the reason. Reward, A spirit worm."
After finishing the task, the feeling of regret just now was quickly calmed down and excited.
Why is the fragrant coconut fruit of the fragrant coconut tree different
Because it is giving birth to the coconut tree elf worm!
Familiar routine, familiar rewards, Liszt turned his eyes away from the thorn seedlings, and said to Blair: "Don't stop the fertilization of the bushes, but you can stop the logging work and build fences instead. You stare carefully, record The growth of these thorn seedlings."
"As you wish."
…
After a while.
Liszt has appeared in the oyster village.
The construction of the houses in Shenghaotun was not fast, and it barely accommodated hundreds of serfs. The houses were no longer built in a disorderly manner, but arranged in an orderly manner according to the sketches planned by Liszt himself.
There is a huge square near the sea in the community.
On the square, a hill made of colorful shells symbolizes the specialty of Shenghaotun—seafood.
On the beach on the east coast, there are clusters of tall fragrant coconut trees, among which there is a cluster of fragrant coconut trees near Shenghaotun. Under the trees, there is a slightly larger house and yard—the fruit-stealing monkey training ground.
The best serfs who domesticated the fruit-stealing monkeys live here. They have been liberated from the fields and the sea, trained and raised the fruit-stealing monkeys full-time, and have become glorious coconut farmers.
"My lord!"
Seeing Liszt, several fragrant coconut farmers knelt down and saluted.
"Get up, you guys have been training the fruit-stealing monkeys for a long time, can the monkeys go up the tree to pick the fruit?"
