Facts have proved that Xu Chunniang's guess was not wrong.
As time went by, more and more disciples came to the top of the mountain, but without exception, they all looked shocked.
Xu Chunniang's calmness was somewhat eye-catching among the mournful faces of the disciples.
She lowered her head slightly and bit her lip hard. Her face turned pale from the pain, tears welled up in her eyes, and she finally looked a little pitiful.
"Shut up, everyone!"
Manager Sun was so noisy that he couldn't help shouting loudly, which finally stopped all the disciples from complaining.
It's just that although the disciples didn't dare to complain anymore, their faces were full of pleading, which gave Steward Sun a headache.
This time there was a large-scale loss in Lingdao. We really cannot place the blame on these disciples.
After all, when there was a problem with the spiritual rice before, the inner sect foundation-building master uncle personally investigated it and gave a solution.
If we really want to hold him accountable, I'm afraid that the inner sect uncle's responsibility will be even greater.
Even if Sun Eryong was given a hundred courages, he would not dare to accuse the uncle of the foundation-building master.
But the matter of Lingdao must be resolved.
This time, the entire Lingzhi Peak suffered heavy losses and no harvest. As the steward of Lingzhi Peak, he must give an explanation to the sect.
After thinking over and over again, Manager Sun wrote down the whole story without any personal feelings and sent it to the inner sect.
After doing all this, Manager Sun turned to look at the disciples.
"I have informed the sect of the whole matter. As for whether the sect will be exempted from this season's spiritual rice, I don't know. I can only wait for someone from the sect to come and deal with it."
Hearing this, all the disciples had mixed feelings of joy and sorrow on their faces.
They were hoping that this matter would turn around, but they were afraid that the sect's handling would end up like last time, with the disciples bearing the losses themselves.
Sun Eryong sent an urgent letter. This time, the people from the sect came quickly after receiving the letter.
After all, nearly two hundred spiritual fields up and down Lingzhi Peak suffered from disasters and had no harvest, which is enough to attract attention.
The visitors were all elixir masters from Danfeng. There were three people who came. In addition to Uncle Zhao from last time, there was also a middle-aged man and an old woman.
"I've met three martial uncles."
Manager Sun quickly greeted the three of them.
Other disciples also followed suit and bowed before him.
The old woman twirled her beard, shook her head and said, "No need to be polite, the matter is important, take us directly to the spiritual field."
Manager Sun quickly led the way, leading the three uncles to the nearest spiritual field.
The disciples followed silently, wanting to know in their hearts what was wrong with Lingdao.
Next to the spiritual field, the foundation-building old woman looked at a field of green spiritual rice and pondered in silence.
Zhao Weiruo's face didn't look good. She used her spiritual consciousness to sense it again, but she didn't sense anything special at all.
It was obviously just a minor problem, so the medicine she prepared couldn't be ineffective.
But if the medicine is really effective, Lingdao should not be like this.
Is there somewhere else... that she hasn't explored clearly?
Thinking of this, Zhao Weiruo felt a sudden change in his heart.
The middle-aged man also released his spiritual consciousness and carefully sensed the entire spiritual field. Suddenly, he seemed to sense something, his face moved slightly, and he transmitted a few words to the old woman.
The old woman turned back and glanced at him approvingly, "Yes, it's the tick spirit insect."
Manager Sun was stunned. What was a tick spirit insect? Why had he never heard of it?
The disciples also heard what the foundation-building old woman said, but like Steward Sun, they were as confused as to what the spirit tick was.
Xu Chunniang, who was mixed in the crowd, had a flash of surprise in her eyes.
Are ticks the little green bugs that hide in spiritual rice?
When she used the spiritual silk technique to explore the spiritual rice, she did clean up several such little bugs.
Zhao Weiruo's face suddenly turned ugly when he heard the word tick spirit insect.
If these spiritual rice plants were really caused by ticks and spiritual insects, then she would be responsible for negligence and misjudgment.
The foundation-building old woman was very cautious, and after using several detection methods to confirm, she spoke quietly.
"The tick spirit insect is a kind of insect that likes to eat spiritual energy. It is very rare. In the world of cultivation, it has not been seen for hundreds of years.
Tick spirit insects like wood spirit energy but dislike fire spirit energy. These insects can be killed by treating the spiritual rice and spiritual fields with fire spirit energy. "
As she spoke, she used a wisp of fire energy to easily force out a small green insect from a spiritual rice plant, and then burned it to death.
Seeing this, Manager Sun showed obvious joy on his face.
"Then if we get rid of these ticks and spirit insects now, will these spiritual rice plants be saved?"
"No."
The old woman shook her head, "It's not that the spiritual rice that has been eaten by ticks has no ears, but that the ticks have already eaten away all the ears.
Even if all the ticks and spirit insects are killed, these spiritual rice plants will not be able to produce ears again. "
Manager Sun smiled helplessly. It seemed that the losses of this season were irreparable after all.
The loss of nearly two hundred spiritual fields is not a small amount. If he doesn't handle it well, he may not even be able to keep his position in charge.
He bowed deeply to the foundation-building old woman and spoke sincerely.
"Uncle Yuan, this Lingzhi Peak is a natural disaster. All the disciples suffered from insect pests last year, and this year... the harvest is bleak. I hope that you, Uncle Yuan, will be considerate and don't have to turn in the spiritual rice this season. "
As soon as he finished speaking, Manager Sun felt a sharp gaze fall on him, making him sweat and unable to straighten his waist.
He groaned secretly in his heart, fearing that his words might have offended Master Zhao to death last time.
After all, the root cause of Lingzhi Peak's second disaster was Master Zhao's misdiagnosis and misjudgment last time.
Yuan Hongxing hadn't spoken yet, but Zhao Weiruo couldn't bear it any longer, with anger and frost on his face.
"Sun Eryong, are you blaming me?"
Manager Sun turned pale with fright and kept saying, "Disciple doesn't dare."
Yuan Hongxing frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "Junior sister Wei Ruo, the disaster in Lingdao this time was caused by your poor skills and wrong diagnosis. How can you blame the outer door manager for no reason?"
Zhao Weiruo pursed his lips and clenched his fists unwillingly.
In front of Senior Sister Yuan, she didn't dare to be as casual as she was with Sun Eryong.
Yuan Hongxing pondered, those who plant the spiritual fields here are the most ordinary outer disciples.
Having been hit so hard now, their faces were full of sorrow and sorrow, but they looked at her with admiration and hope.
Yuan Hongxing made a decision in her heart and spoke quietly.
"The disaster at Lingzhi Peak is the fault of Zhao Weiruo, the inner sect's spiritual medicine master, so I will exempt all the disciples from the spiritual rice that they have to turn in this time."
Hearing this, all the disciples felt that they had been rescued from a desperate situation. They were all so excited that they couldn't control themselves. They bowed deeply to Yuan Hongxing and said, "Thank you, Master Yuan, for your understanding."
"Senior sister, why are you like this? How will these outer disciples see me in the future if you act like this?"
Zhao Weiruo was ashamed and angry, but she did not dare to openly disobey Yuan Hongxing, so she had to message her alone.
Yuan Hongxing raised her head, glanced at Zhao Weiruo, and said through a message, "Junior sister Zhao, the factual evidence is clear, and you did something wrong in this matter."
Zhao Weiruo was very unwilling, "I was just careless... Besides, I have never seen this tick spirit insect before."
Zhao Weiruo admitted that she had done something wrong, but she couldn't be entirely blamed for this!
After all, who could have expected that such a rare insect pest would appear in a small outer gate Lingzhi Peak.
