Chapter 61 - Big Brother is so Lonely


Living in this world was so dull. There was no entertainment of the past life, it was even more torturing during the night. Yue Qianchou gradually got used to it after spending a few years. However, Fu Rong's room didn't even have any lightning source, he wondered how she could bear living here for so many years.

There were a lot of fluorescent stones inside the golden bead space. Yue Qianchou wanted to take some of it to light the room, but he thought about it again. The light emitted by the fluorescent stones was pan-blue. He was afraid he would scare himself to sleep seeing Fu Rong's face.

This night, Yue Qianchou climbed to the roof to gaze at the stars. He looked at the little dark room under his butt then turned his sight to the other places where people were living. It was bright and envious. He could only heave a sigh as he returned to his current dwelling.

Inside the dwelling, Fu Rong was sitting cross-legged. Unfortunately, Yue Qianchou's Qi Condensation had reached its limit and he could no longer cultivate to improve it. He planned to ask about the whereabouts of the spiritual plants, with this girl's IQ, she should not suspect anything.

Covered by the bedding that was stretched out, Yue Qianchou secretly took out the jade slip containing the pills' formulas, he prioritized the safety over anything. The purpose was to reconfirm the spiritual plants needed according to the Foundation Establishment pill's formula, making mistake would be foolish.

The divine sense injected into the jade slip and he quickly found the Foundation Establishment pill's formula, Yue Qianchou carefully checked the content.

Core Guarding Orchid, Golden Gang Fruit, Ribs Forging Grass, Spiritual Ice Mushroom, Hybrid Golden Grass, hundred years old ginseng, hundred years old Lingzhi mushroom, Taint Purifying Grass, and Spirit Assembling Grass.

Alright! It's exactly the nine spiritual plants as I have remembered. I didn't know that these hundred years old ginseng and Lingzhi mushroom are also considered as spiritual plants. As far as I have searched the Mulberry Garden, only five kinds were found.

"Martial Aunt Fu Rong." Yue Qianchou recovered his jade slip and called the other party through the rags curtain between them.

"Yes." Replied Fu Rong.

"Does our Mulberry Garden has hundred years old ginseng and hundred years old Lingzhi mushroom?"

Fu Rong answered in wonder, "No, but the forest on the mountain behind the Mulberry Garden has all those kinds. There are not only hundred years old but even some thousand years old, some ginseng even estimated to be perfect grade."

Shit, there is even the legendary thousand years ginseng! Yue Qianchou got excited as he listened, he proceeded to sit down and asked again, "Are the plants abundant?"

"There are a lot of hundred years old but only a few of the thousand years old."

"Haha, I heard that those could be used as medicine. I want to try to eat some." Laughed Yue Qianchou.

Fu Rong replied with a smile, "Ginseng and Lingzhi mushrooms are common plants even in the secular world. It doesn't take a lot of effort to grow them either. The age is what makes them precious. Usually, they would turn into spiritual plants after reaching hundred years old, this case is uncommon in the secular world. For us cultivators, it is wasteful to directly eat the hundred years old ginseng or the hundred years old Lingzhi mushroom, the best way is to take the efficacy by refining them into the medicinal pill."

"I only said it casually." Yue Qianchou smiled and asked again, "Does our Mulberry Garden has Taint Purifying Grass and Spirit Assembling Grass?"

"Not in our Mulberry Garden, there are actually two types of land on the mountain outside our garden. Those were especially for the Taint Purifying Grass and Spirit Assembling Grass." Fu Rong paused a bit and explained thoughtfully, "These two spiritual plants are necessary for the refinement of medicinal pills. Taint Purifying Grass has the function to remove the impurities in the medicine, while the Spirit Assembling Grass can lock the spiritual Qi and the efficacy of the medicine so it won't diminish. These two spiritual plants are used almost for all kinds of medicinal pills. The demand is very high and so these two are the most grown spiritual plants of our Myriad Fragrant Garden."

Originally, he had spent a month searching for all kinds of spiritual plants needed to refine the Foundation Establishment pill, he finally discovered that he hadn't searched far enough. Yue Qianchou heaved a sigh and exclaimed, "There are so many kinds of spiritual plants in our Myriad Fragrant Garden. It must have taken a lot of painstaking efforts to collect those."

Fu Rong replied, "Well, there are disciples of our Immortal-Enchanting Island who have long searched for rare and precious spiritual plants. After collecting many kinds of spiritual plants, our Myriad Fragrant Garden would plant the seeds and grow them in large numbers. Venerated Aunt Jiu of our Mulberry Garden is in charge of the seeds of the various spiritual plants. As long as it is the spiritual plants in the Myriad Fragrant Garden, almost all of the seeds are possessed by her and the elders she is in charge of."

Aunt Pocky Jiu has all kinds of spiritual plants seeds on her hand? Yue Qianchou's heart was beating faster as he was listening, he swallowed his saliva and carefully asked, "Since she has so many seeds, why I don't see many kinds of spiritual plants in the Mulberry Garden?"

Fu Rong explained, "Mulberry Garden is primarily responsible for developing various spiritual plants seeds, not for planting a large number of spiritual plants. There are more precious and rare spiritual plants that cultivated in the Mulberry Garden."

Yue Qianchou did not speak anymore, he sat down on his bed and carefully thought about the information he got. It was a troublesome matter that the spiritual plants' seeds were in Aunt Pocky Jiu's hands. The key problem was that he knew almost nothing about her. Moreover, the old woman had a cultivation of late-stage Tribulation Crossing, it would be very difficult to get the things from her hands. Yue Qianchou's teeth aching endlessly.

Fu Rong was not the kind of person who spoke on her own initiative. Seeing that Yue Qianchou no longer asked, she naturally stopped her speak. Only that she wasn't aware that the latter was worrying about the seeds.

Recalling the scene of Aunt Pocky Jiu that day, even her gaze could already send a shiver to my bones, it's going to be hard ah! However, she seemed to be very affectionate with Yan Zixia on that day. It's really strange, how could a disciple who had just joined was already familiar with Aunt Pocky Jiu? Come to think of it, when I was about to leave, I seemed to have heard someone addressed "Ancestor Grandmother". Who was it? At that time, there were only a few people except Aunt Pocky Jiu.

They are relatives! Yue Qianchou jolted awake from the bed.

If they weren't relative, in this ridiculous self-centered cultivation world, Aunt Pocky Jiu would have no reason to be so affectionate to Yan Zixia. It wasn't because of her beautiful look! Yue Qianchou suddenly realized and slowly laid down, his mind fell on Yan Zixia.

Fu Rong had no idea what he was thinking. She kept surprised by his antics.

As the saying goes, hope is good, but the reality is always cruel.

Since Yue Qianchou arrived at Mulberry Garden, his days would start before the dawn, sometimes he could be seen carrying the buckets of excrement, such days go by. In order to get the spiritual plants seeds, he hit the idea to get closer to Yan Zixia, he often passed by the courtyard gates, hoping to encounter her. Unfortunately, it was to no avail. After several days of checking, Yan Zixia seemed to have disappeared from the Mulberry Garden, not a single glimpse of her figure was seen.

Living at the Mulberry Garden, Yue Qianchou eventually took care of the spiritual plants that were mentioned in the Foundation Establishment pill's formula. Every time, he had the idea to secretly pulled several strains of those spiritual plants. However, Yue Qianchou felt that the seemingly loose environment had an all-looking eye observing every single spot, there was no chance for him to execute his plan. Then, Yue Qianchou hit the idea to gather spiritual plants on the mountain, but it was also failed. When he went to the forest to dig a few hundred years old ginseng and Lingzhi mushrooms, he was driven out and got severely warned.

After trying several times, Yue Qianchou didn't dare to do it again, afraid he would get suspected, he could only wait for a new opportunity to arise.

On a secluded valley in the Myriad Fragrant Garden, a small river was running to the sea, it harbored silvery white fishes. Yue Qianchou casually caught one to eat it and found that the fish taste was unusually delicious. From then on, whenever he got hungry, he would come here to fish. From the corner of the Mulberry Garden, the smell of grilled fish often floated. Fu Rong joined to eat the unique flavor of grilled fish, although her mouth didn't say anything, her facial expression told that she liked it very much.

In the blink of an eye, a year passed by, there was still no sign of the Alchemy Pavilion to ask Yue Qianchou to go back. Although it wouldn't be a good thing to return. The deadlock with Yan Shu had not been resolved. In this way, Yue Qianchou who was waiting for the opportunity led his daily life very regularly. Before the dawn he would pick the excrement from the women's toilets, in the morning he would fertilize the spiritual plants. When he got free time, Yue Qianchou would pass the courtyard gates to try his luck. In the afternoon, he would go fishing then roast the fishes he caught. Yue Qianchou would also occasionally went inside the golden bead space to encourage Chen Feng to return to his business and strive to improve his craft. Guan Yu would often ask him how was his life on the Immortal-Enchanting Island, even if it would get him killed, Yue Qianchou would never say it. After all, picking excrement for a whole year was not a glorious thing, he didn't want anyone in the golden bead space to know. Otherwise, it would be too damaging to his reputation as the Boss.

Day after day, it was so depressing for Yue Qianchou. There were many beautiful women in the Mulberry Garden, he really wanted to snuggle those little or big sisters to find a relief, but none of them let him get close lest having any interest. Late at night, Yue Qianchou was hiding in his blanket and sorrowfully wailed, "Big Brother is so lonely!"
