"Master, wouldn't it be unlucky for the Qingcheng Sect and the Situ family to enter the Shu Ruins this time?"

Although he couldn't see the orchards of the other two sects, Gu An still glanced over there as he spoke.

"Yes, especially the Situ family. Two people could have entered, but only one entered. It is conceivable how much space they can have in the orchard this time."

Gu Zheng's voice paused and then became serious: "We are about to enter the orchard. Our overall strength is not high. If we encounter high-level spiritual beasts, we must be cautious. Another point is that when encountering danger, I

I don’t want you to always think about me. I have self-defense means. The most important thing is that you pay attention to your own safety. I hope there are four of us when we enter Shuxu and we will still be four when we leave Shuxu!"

With the Misty Body Illusion Technique and the Emei Ring in their possession, if life-threatening situations still occur, the situation of Gu An and the three of them will definitely be more dangerous, so Gu Zheng needs to remind them not to be too impulsive.

Gu An and the other four were stunned for a moment, then immediately nodded like chickens pecking at rice. Gu Zheng's cultivation level was not very high, but in their hearts, he was already an almost omnipotent being.

"Let's go from easy to difficult. Let's clean up the spiritual beasts in Zhuguo District first."

Gu Zheng took the lead into the orchard, followed closely by Gu An and others. The group moved forward cautiously, trying not to make any noise.

The exotic fruits will mature in three days. There must have been a lot of spirit beasts gathered in the orchard now. Although these spirit beasts are not very united, they are only compared to the entire spirit beast group. At least the same kind of spirit beasts are still more troublesome.

Yes, provoking one is sometimes equivalent to provoking a group of them.

The red fruit tree is the tallest of the three types of fruit trees. Almost every tree is eight meters high. The red patch you see when you first enter the orchard is actually the crown of the red fruit tree.

"Hey, what a wonderful alien fruit! I don't know how many of them will belong to us by then. It would be great if the prehistoric space could directly collect them. It would be like a waste of time!"

There are almost a dozen exotic fruits hanging on each red fruit tree. Looking at the red fruits with a faint light hidden in the gaps between the branches and leaves, Gu Zheng is very impressed.

The fact is just as Gu Zheng lamented, the prehistoric space cannot directly collect such rooted and growing things, otherwise he would directly collect the thousand-year-old snow lotus during his trip to the Tianshan Mountains.

"The immature red fruit will be of lower grade after ripening, which is better than the small fragrant pears you ate before. The internal strength that one red fruit can increase is equivalent to four small fragrant pears."

The voice of the weapon spirit rang in Gu Zheng's mind, and in the grass not far away, a chubby guy with black hair, about one meter in length, stood up.

"Gulu..."

The thing that stood up had a pig's head and a pig's brain, and it let out its signature cry at Gu Zheng and others. This guy was exactly the kind of low-level spiritual beast Gulu Pig that he had encountered on the road before.

Grur pigs are the most common low-level spiritual beasts in the entire Shu Ruins. They are not picky eaters and have strong reproductive energy. They are deeply loved and hated by cultivators.

I like them because their elixirs are easy to hunt, but I hate them because a lot of resources will be wasted by them.

Gu Zheng stretched out his hand and Zhang Tiancheng immediately walked towards the Grur Pig. Not to be outdone, the Grur Pig lowered his head and hit Zhang Tiancheng. Even though the Grur Pig is only one meter long, it is a spiritual beast after all. In addition to its speed,

Very quickly, the force of its impact is enough to crack a rock as big as an ox.

Zhang Tiancheng dodged, and the Grur Pig was knocked out of the way. However, its figure unexpectedly stopped in an instant. It was not affected by inertia at all. At the same time, its two front legs supported the ground, and its two front legs retreated like a donkey kicking someone.

, and kicked Zhang Tiancheng in the stomach.

Zhang Tiancheng, who was well prepared, dodged again, and his inner energy immediately hit the Gulu Pig on the waist.

"Click..."

"Gulu..."

The sound of broken spines and screams were heard at the same time. The Grur Pig lying on the ground was punched in the head by Zhang Tiancheng, ending its life.

"This is a strong grunt pig, even if it dies, it doesn't call for its companions!"

Gu Zheng sighed and commented on the dead Grur Pig.

Although the Grunt Pig is small and has no ability to fly, its ability to pick exotic fruits is top-notch. When the exotic fruits are ripe, the Grunt Pig only needs to bump against the trunk of the tree, and the exotic fruits will fall to the ground like rain.

Such high efficiency is beyond the reach of even practitioners, because tree trunks have special resistance to internal energy, and the effect of internal energy hitting it is much worse than that of a grunt pig hitting a tree.

Compared with the Grunt Pig, the method used by cultivators to collect exotic fruits is much slower. They usually hit the tree trunk twice first, and all the exotic fruits that can fall will fall off. It is useless to hit too many exotic fruits that cannot fall out.

Almost all foreign fruits that fall on the ground will be broken. If you pick up this kind of foreign fruit, you will eat it yourself. After all, the broken fruits will spoil quickly. As for the foreign fruits left on the tree, use them outside.

The inner energy gently sweeps it down and picks it up with hands. Such exotic fruits are almost always in good condition and are used to bring them back to the sect or pay tribute to Shushan.

Spiritual beasts all have their own territory, and the same goes for occupying orchards. After clearing out a grunt pig, usually in a red fruit tree, there will be no second spiritual beast.

Although there are more than a hundred red fruit trees, they are still quite sparse in the orchard of more than fifty acres. If you clear out the spiritual beasts next to a red fruit tree, you often have to walk a certain distance before you can encounter the second one.

.But this is also good, as it saves you from provoking multiple spiritual beasts at the same time.

"Let's go to the Zhuguoshu No. 78."

Gu Zheng looked at the Grur Pig on the ground with hatred, and left with his disciples.

The Grunt pig has a very good body shape and has a higher meat yield than the wild boar! There is not much fat on their small bodies, all of which are lean meat that looks very beautiful. But it is a pity that the Grunt pig has a higher meat yield than the wild boar.

It's not a domestic pig, their meat is very spicy, otherwise Gu Zheng would definitely not let it go easily.

Every fruit tree in the orchard has a number. The location of the red fruit tree No. 78 is not far from where Gu Zheng and the others entered the orchard.

The reason why I have to go to the Zhuguoshu No. 78 is because there are medicinal materials planted by Ziyun Palace when the Shu Ruins were opened last time.

In fact, not only Ziyun Palace will plant plants, but also other sects. Since the ranking will change, no matter which sect plants the plants, they must clearly inform Shushan after leaving Shu Ruins, so that they can

Inform the corresponding sect after the next ranking change.

Near the red fruit tree No. 78, there is a big pear tree with two people hugging each other. The fruit produced by this pear tree is nothing special except that it is sweeter than those in the outside world.

The pear tree is very old. It is so old that it has a large tree hole close to the ground. The medicinal materials grown in Ziyun Palace are inside. In order to protect the medicinal materials grown inside, Ziyun Palace even has a tree outside the tree hole.

, a small formation was arranged that could serve as a cover, so that future generations could gain something from it.

The old pear tree was very tall and they had seen it early. It didn't take much effort for Gu Zheng and others to find it. However, when Gu Zheng saw the hole in the tree, his expression changed instantly.

"damn it."

The plants growing in the tree hole were medicinal materials, but they had all been eaten by pigs, which made Gu Zheng curse bitterly.

The medicinal material that was eaten by pigs looks very much like Chinese cabbage in appearance, and its name is 'Red Heart Crisp'. It only grows on this kind of red soil in the orchard, and its growth cycle is among the medicinal materials produced in Shuxu.

It's relatively short, only ten years.

However, although the growth cycle is short, 'Red Heart Crisp' has a wide range of uses. In addition to being used to refine beauty elixirs, it is also an ingredient with a great taste.

There is no "Red Heart Crispy" in the outside world. Their quality is almost ordinary, and their taste is so good that they are also on the list of tributes accepted by Shushan.

Don’t get me wrong, Shushan doesn’t need ‘Red Heart Crisp’ to refine beauty elixirs, they just want to eat it! Chicken Fong, Red Heart Crisp, and Duck Palm are the only three food tributes that Shushan receives.

In the words of Qi Ling: "The crispy deliciousness of fried red hearts is no less delicious than that of stewed purple ones."

In addition to hearing Qi Ling talk about Red Heart Crisp, Gu Zheng also heard it mentioned many times by the two elders Wuyou Wuyou. They also asked Gu Zheng to bring some of Red Heart Crisp back if he entered the Sichuan Ruins. They had not done so for ten years.

I tasted the crispy taste of red hearts.

Unfortunately, apart from the orchard areas of the six sects, there are very few places where Red Heart Crisp can grow and plant in the entire Shu Ruins.

However, when the red heart is ripe, it is also the time when the exotic fruit is ripe. At this time, there are many spiritual animals in the orchard, among which a large number of grunt pigs are very fond of harming the immature red heart. Anyway, eating this kind of thing is not very beneficial.

, it doesn’t matter if you become immature, the harm will be the harm.

"If you bite me, I'll bite you all to death. I'll make them all shapeless, which makes people sad to see you!"

There were a total of ten Red Heart Crisps in the tree hole, all of which were bitten by the grunt pigs. Liu Ying was so angry that she gnashed her teeth.

"Damn the Grur Pig, every Red Heart Crisp tree has been chewed once or twice by it. Although it is not dead yet, it will definitely die within two or three days. Moreover, after being chewed by it, the level of the ingredients has also changed.

There is no use in lowering it or digging it out.”

Gu Zheng's sighing voice paused, and then he smiled coldly: "The formations left by Ziyun Palace can't stop you, can they? Today's lunch is yours!"

"Master, you're not so angry that you want to eat the Grur Pig? Its meat is very irritating!" Gu An reminded hurriedly.

"What are you afraid of? Don't you still believe in my cooking skills? Can you relieve your anger by not eating it?" Gu Zheng rolled his eyes.

"I can!"

Gu An answered subconsciously. He had already remembered a rumor inside the door.

It is said that the sweet and sour pork smells spicy and tastes even better, especially the balls of the male sweet and sour pig. Apart from the elixir, the only thing left in the sweet and sour pig that can be used as a resource is the two balls of the male pig.

.

The reason why the Gulu pig has strong reproductive ability is closely related to the boar, and the two eggs of the boar can indeed be used to refine special elixirs for some people with special status to take to improve their health.

Some male abilities.

Once upon a time, a Shushan senior who claimed that there was nothing he dared not eat, got a grunt pig egg. He gave it to an Emei disciple named "Lu Zhu Chen" and asked him to help clean it up.

‘Lu Zhu Chen’ is a disciple from the outside of Emei and is responsible for a century-old braised pork restaurant in Emei.

After removing the stinky tendons from the pig’s eggs, ‘Luzhuchen’ soaked them in water and marinated them with cooking wine. He used all the methods he could to finally get rid of the stinky smell from the pig’s eggs.

When making braised food in the evening, ‘Lu Zhu Chen’ threw the pig eggs cut into two halves into the century-old braised soup, along with a lot of braised food to be sold the next day.

Early the next morning, an old customer came to the door and asked for some braised meat to put in the fire. He vomited it all over the floor in one mouthful. For no other reason than it was too exciting!

‘Lu Zhu Chen’ didn’t believe it. After all, there was no irritation in the broth or the customer’s braised food. So at the customer’s third request, ‘Lu Zhu Chen’ also put some braised food on the fire and ate it.

After one mouthful of braised food, ‘Luzhuchen’ vomited into the pot of centuries-old soup on the spot.

Later, Senior Emei, who claimed that there was nothing he dared not eat, forcefully ate a pig egg with a grin on his face and disappeared immediately. When everyone saw him a month later, he had become so thin that only skin and bones were left.

.

"Go to hell!"

Gu Zheng laughed and scolded, then kicked Gu An on the butt. He naturally knew what Gu An had in mind.
