Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World

Zhao Hai and the others entered the village. It was a small village, but there was a small shop in the village. Although the village was next to the road, it was not a major traffic thoroughfare, so they only had one small shop here. That's enough.

Zhao Hai and the others walked into the shop. There were two tables of customers in the shop, but they looked more like people from the village. They only ordered two side dishes and drank some wine.

Zhao Hai and his group of sixteen people sat at two tables. Zhao Hai casually asked the shopkeeper to serve some simple meals, and he would drink ordinary tea from the large porcelain bowl on the table.

The planter in his thirties who had spoken to Zhao Hai before also poured himself a bowl of tea, but after taking a sip, he put the bowl down. Then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Sir, why don't we ride horses?" ?And what about walking?"

Zhao Hai glanced at him. He knew this person. The teacher of the College of Physicians and Teachers in the college was named Cai Wanpeng. Among the teachers in the college, he was considered young and promising. However, it was obvious that he had always been in the college's conditions. Living in a very good environment, he suddenly came to such a small shop, which made him very uncomfortable.

Zhao Hai looked at him, smiled slightly and said: "It's nothing, because it's inconvenient. You must know that the plant masters are very independent, especially in the Soldier Soul Continent. There are many plant masters. They would rather stay in the woods every day to observe the plant masters." , I also don’t like to enter other people’s homes and become offerings to their homes, because that way there will be no freedom, and for planters, staying with plants is more interesting than staying with people, just like us this time, We are going to Cangwu Mountain. If we go there on horseback, I'm afraid it won't take more than two days to get there. But what happens after we get there? What to do with the horse? It's a big expense to stay in someone else's home. , take it with you? But the place we are going to may not be suitable for horses at all. Once we start observing plants, we don’t have much time to take care of horses, so when planters travel, there are many I choose to walk all the time, not only because it is inconvenient, but it can also be regarded as a kind of spiritual practice."

Zhao Hai looked at Cai Wanpeng and said: "The practice of a planter is very lonely. Because if you want to become a qualified planter, a good planter, you need to stay in the forest for a long time to observe plants and talk to them. Stay together so that you can not only observe the plants better, but also communicate with those plants for a long time. Practice your communication skills. In addition, you can also exchange energy with those plants and let your own Your strength increases faster. For all these reasons, you will become a qualified planter in the country. Likewise, most of these trainings are carried out in the forest, which requires you to stay there for a long time. In the forest, what is the scariest thing about being alone in the forest? Loneliness, the feeling of loneliness is the scariest thing. A good planter must adapt to loneliness. It is best to learn to enjoy loneliness, but you will definitely not get used to it at the beginning. This kind of loneliness, and walking on the road is a kind of practice. Because when you are on the road, it is very likely that you are alone, and you will feel this kind of loneliness, but if you continue to walk, slowly you will I’m used to this feeling of loneliness.”

Cai Wanpeng nodded. Without saying anything, the shopkeeper also brought the food. They were all very simple meals. Zhao Hai and the others were also a little hungry, so they ate hungrily.

The food in this store really didn't taste that good, but Zhao Hai tasted it delicious. After they had eaten, Zhao Hai called the shopkeeper over.

After the shopkeeper arrived, Cai Wanpeng immediately settled the bill. After the bill was settled, Zhao Hai turned to the shopkeeper and said: "Sir, shopkeeper, are there any plant-related issues that need to be dealt with in your village? ? We are planters from the academy who come out for trials. If there is any, please tell us and we can help you deal with it."

When the shopkeeper heard what Zhao Hai said, he couldn't help but be stunned. Then he immediately said with a happy face: "Sir, are you telling the truth? That's really great. There is really something happening in our village. We need the help of the plant master. An ancestral tree in our village has recently lost a lot of leaves. We are preparing to ask the college to help solve it in the next two days. If you can, sir, It would be best if you help solve it."

Zhao Hai nodded and said: "We can help you take a look, let's go." After saying that, he stood up, picked up the wooden box next to him and carried it on his back.

The shopkeeper became even more happy when he saw Zhao Hai's actions. He immediately said: "Sir, please follow me." After that, he led Zhao Hai and the others out.

Zhao Hai and the others followed the shopkeeper as they walked into the village. After a while, they stopped in front of a courtyard. The shopkeeper came forward and knocked on the door. After a while, an old voice came from the yard and said: "Who is it?" .”

The shopkeeper immediately said: "Fourth uncle, it's me, I'm Haizi." As he spoke, the door of the courtyard was opened, and a man walked out of the courtyard. He was an old man, he looked to be nearly seventy years old. , his hair is almost white, and his back is a bit hunched, but he is still in good spirits.

As soon as the old man saw the shopkeeper, he nodded and said, "It's you. If you don't look after your shop, why are you here? Oh, who are these adults? Haven't we asked the academy for help yet?"

The shopkeeper immediately said to the old man: "Fourth Uncle, these adults are the plant masters in the academy. They came out for training. They just had dinner in my shop and later asked me if there was anything about plants in the village. The matter needed to be resolved, so I thought of the big tree in our village, so I invited them over. Fourth uncle, do you think you can take some adults to see the ancestral tree?"

When the old man heard what the shopkeeper said, he couldn't help but be stunned. Then he immediately turned to Zhao Hai and the others and said, "Are these adults really willing to help our village solve the problem of the ancestral tree? Is this true?"

Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said: "Of course it is true, village chief, can we go and see the ancestral tree? I want to be called the ancestral tree, he must be not young, right? They should go and see it earlier, earlier Wouldn’t it be better to work things out?”

The old man nodded and said: "Okay, adults, please follow me." After saying that, the village chief led Zhao Hai and the others towards the village. After a while, the group of people came to the middle of the village. Once they arrived in the middle of the village, Zhao Hai and the others were stunned. Because there is a big tree in the middle of the village. This big tree is very big. Its trunk is as thick as ten people hugging each other. Such big trees are rare.

The old man walked to the foot of the big tree very respectfully. Then the old man turned to Zhao Hai and said: "Sir, this is our ancestral tree. According to legend, this ancestral tree was planted by our ancestors when our village existed. Then it grew up slowly, and finally grew into Such a towering tree. Now this tree is our ancestor, so we call it the ancestor tree. He is the god of our village. But I don’t know what happened recently. There are a lot of yellow leaves on the tree. Look, sir. ?" After speaking, the old man pointed to the tree.

Zhao Hai glanced at the direction pointed by the old man. I found that there were a lot of yellow leaves on some of the thicker branches on the tree, and they looked like they were dead.

Zhao Hai nodded and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I understand the village chief. Please stand aside and leave this place to us. Teacher Cai, you can try it first."

When Teacher Cai heard what Zhao Hai said, he also responded. He walked to the big tree and observed it carefully. Then he tried to communicate with the big tree. Then he stepped aside and was about to speak, but Zhao Hai waved. Wave your hand and let others step forward to observe.

Soon everyone had observed it and communicated with the ancestral tree. Afterwards, Zhao Hai called them together, looked at them and said, "Everyone, let's talk about what's wrong with this ancestral tree. Teacher Cai, let you tell it first."

Cai Wanpeng nodded and said: "Yes. Sir, I think there is something wrong with this ancestral tree. He is just too old and died naturally, so there is no way to cure it."

As soon as Cai Wanpeng said these words, the village chief's face couldn't help but change and turned very pale. It was obvious that this answer was definitely not what he wanted to hear.

Zhao Hai nodded and didn't say anything. Instead, he turned to look at the others and said in a deep voice: "You guys can also tell me whether you have the same opinion as Teacher Cai." The others looked at each other and nodded at the same time. They nodded, and it seemed that they agreed with Cai Wanpeng's words.

As soon as he saw them all nodding, the village chief's face instantly lost all color. Then he looked at the ancestral tree with a painful expression. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Zhao Hai taking the wooden box off his back, and then After sitting on the wooden box, he said to the others: "Okay, everyone, sit down, let's talk about the ancestral tree." When the others saw Zhao Hai's appearance, they also took off the wooden box. He sat on the wooden box and looked at Zhao Hai steadily. This made the village chief even more curious. He really didn't expect that among these people, the tall Zhao Hai was the main one. .

Zhao Hai looks much younger than Cai Wanpeng, so the village chief thought that Zhao Hai was just a follower sent by Cai Wanpeng and the others to talk to him, and it was Cai Wanpeng and the others who really had the final say. Although Zhao Hai's behavior before was a little undesirable, but He didn't think much about it because he was worried about his ancestral tree. Now it seems that the reality is much different from what he imagined.

Zhao Hai saw that everyone was sitting down, and then he said: "Everyone, tell me, why do plants die?"

When Zhao Hai said this, everyone couldn't help but be stunned, and then they all looked at it with some confusion. They didn't know why Zhao Hai asked this. Of course, plants will die. Is there anything else to say?

Looking at their appearance, Zhao Hai couldn't help but shake his head secretly in his heart, and then he said: "There are two types of plants here in Wenji Continent, one is wild plants, and the other is tamed by us. , plants that can be planted, purely wild plants are like those trees in the woods, no one cares about them, and there are many tame plants, such as glutinous rice. I think everyone knows this, but the death of plants is absolutely It’s not that simple to define. It’s easy to say that it’s a tame plant, because just like glutinous rice, what we need is glutinous rice, so when the glutinous rice matures, it will naturally die, but the seeds of glutinous rice remain. When it comes down, it turns into glutinous rice and is eaten by us, but wild plants are different, especially perennial trees and plants."
