Jiang Yue and others finally understood.
It turns out that Ga Ye's recruitment of mushroom people like them was really not a spur-of-the-moment move. He had already made a plan early on. And having said that, the mushroom people have become the most suitable group to take care of these elixirs.
Of course, the old master also said that this is also the result of his recent research. It will take some time to know whether it will be useful.
That said, it must be more reliable. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have gone to such great lengths to fight.
Next, the old master explained to them all the details of taking care of these elixirs.
This is typical cramming teaching, but fortunately it is not particularly complicated. After listening to it twice, even the stupidest mushroom man has already accepted it.
After the teaching was completed, the master conducted some random checks on them and found that they had basically mastered the skills. The random checks on everyone showed that the answers were reasonable.
"Yes, your mushroom people's understanding is higher than I thought. Maybe if it falls on you mushroom people to take care of these elixirs, there will be unexpected results." The old master praised.
A mushroom man from Jiang asked: "Master, the growth cycle of these elixirs is so long, does it mean that we have to wait here until they grow up?"
"Master Ba must have made this clear to you a long time ago, right? How long you stay is not up to me. I am only responsible for teaching you how to take care of these elixirs."
"So, how much will these elixirs be worth after they grow up? Master, can you tell me?"
The old master gave the mushroom man a meaningful look and said calmly: "If you don't want to die quickly, don't ask these questions blindly."
The mushroom man smiled coquettishly: "Are there really such big sales for so many elixirs? Where are they sold?"
The old master's face became even colder: "You have many problems. I think you may not live long enough to mature these elixirs."
The mushroom man's face was stern, and he was about to turn his face, but was kicked by the leader of the mushroom man Qing Zhe.
"You talk a lot of nonsense. If you want to die, don't take everyone else to eat melons."
The mushroom man was obviously more afraid of Qing Zhe. He mumbled, but in the end he said nothing more.
Jiang Yue chuckled and said, "If you ask me, we still made a profit. Working here is temporary, but learning these skills will last a long time. I really want to thank the master for teaching me everything."
The old master was a little surprised when he heard what Jiang Yue said. I couldn't help but look at Jiang Yue twice, obviously I didn't expect these mushroom people to have such a large-scale existence.
The two apothecary boys grinned, with a hint of smile emerging from the corners of their mouths, which seemed to have a faint sense of ridicule.
Jiang Yue observed the words and expressions and took in the medicine boy's reaction.
However, he remained calm, as if he didn't notice it at all.
The old master, on the other hand, sighed softly and said: "Among the mushroom people, you are considered to have a sharp eye. I hope you can take good care of these elixirs and try to impress me."
"Haha, we must do our best to live up to the master's teachings and the salary that Master Hu has given us."
The old master nodded again, looked deeply at Jiang Yue for a moment, waved his hand, and said nothing more.
"Okay, now the medicine garden is handed over to you to divide the areas of responsibility. In order to prevent you from passing the buck and arguing with each other, and to prevent someone from taking advantage of each other, the responsibilities of each medicine field must be assigned to individuals. I will come to check the situation every three to five times. . If anyone of you is found fishing, it won’t be me who will come looking for you, but Mr. Hu’s men who are like wolves and tigers."
The old master said, and then said to the two medicine boys: "Take out the distribution map of this medicine garden and divide each piece of medicine field into individual heads. It must be fair and just, and there must be no favoritism. Fraud, no favoritism to anyone.”
The two apothecary boys obviously couldn't show favoritism to anyone, so they assigned the responsibility to each specific person with a few clicks.
After all this was completed, the old master took the two medicine boys and left.
Jiang Yue and the six mushroom men were left, looking at the thousand-acre medicinal field in a daze.
The leader of the mushroom men, Qing Zhe, chuckled and said, "Brother Zuyao, I didn't expect you to have such a big heart. Even this old master praised you. It seems you really want to learn your skills here."
Jiang Yue said modestly: "The skills you learn can be used for a lifetime, so of course you have to study hard."
Qing Zhe sighed: "I really have to learn from you in this regard. We are used to wandering in rivers and lakes, and suddenly we are riveted to this place and cannot leave for a long time. This mood is really a bit depressing. It seems that we must learn This is the mentality of brothers Zuyao."
"Excuse me. Maybe we are stupid and don't have any other skills. Learning something down-to-earth is the only way out we can think of, right?"
Qingzhe said: "Brother Zuyao is humble, I will learn a lot from you in the future. By the way, this task has been assigned today. We will work together for a long time in the future. I still have a few bottles of wine here, why don't I work today? After we're done, let's get together and have a little party? The days ahead will definitely be very boring, and we have to learn to entertain ourselves."
"Haha, the three of us have boring temperaments, but we are not afraid of boring life. Let's forget about getting together. With our unsociable temperament, don't make everyone unhappy. By then, the friendship will not be successful, but we will become enemies. .”
"No, not really. We are brothers from the same ethnic group after all. It's the same thing, but we are acquainted twice. Ordinarily we have been friends for a few days, and it's time to keep in touch. We can't let outsiders see the joke and think that we are The mushroom people are not united. They work together as if they are strangers."
Jiang Yue chuckled and said: "Apart from us, we don't see many outsiders here all day long. It's just the guy who delivers the food, the old master and his two boys."
Qingzhe saw that Jiang Yue and the others were still struggling, but he didn't turn his back. He smiled bitterly and laughed at himself: "It seems that brothers Zuyao are still suspicious of us. That's all, as time goes by, you will see people's hearts. Work, work, everything." Cheer up and do your job well. If you don't do your job well, be careful Mr. Tiger comes back to deal with us."
Jiang Yue and the other three also went to their respective responsible medicine fields and started working.
Although everyone knows that it is like being a monk for a day and hitting the clock, you still have to do it seriously. If you ring the bell half-heartedly, it's hard not to arouse others' suspicion.
To say that the work of taking care of the elixir is indeed huge, but to say it is too difficult is not to say it. After all, serving the elixir is not like taking care of a child, nor does it need to be guarded all the time.
Go through the necessary procedures every day, and then patrol several times a day to observe whether any unexpected behavior will occur with the elixir.
As long as you follow the steps, you don't have to worry about big changes.
The characteristics of mushroom people are really suitable for serving elixirs. The bodies of the pure type people do not have the fanatical blood energy and evil spirit of the mad type. Their aura is relatively mild, and the impact and impact on the elixir is obviously very subtle and can even be ignored.
Even so, at the end of the day, Sangou was still complaining a lot.
After dinner, when he returned to the room, Sangou lamented: "Second brother, I have never suffered so much when doing farm work in Panshiling. This Mr. Hu is really a core business. With this workload, even double the manpower will be tired." It’s quite annoying.”
Jiang Qiao smiled and said, "I think it's okay. You'll be fine once you get used to it. Sangou, you are from the countryside. You don't look like such a squeamish person."
Sangou said depressedly: "Second uncle, I'm still a child, okay?"
He wanted to continue to complain, but Jiang Yue interrupted him with a gesture.
Then, a strange smile appeared on the corner of Jiang Yue's mouth, and he murmured: "These damn lizard people are really persistent. They actually want to break into this medicine garden."
"Ah? Are the lizard men coming?" Sangou's eyes lit up and he was gearing up, looking very excited as if a good show was coming.
Jiang Yue smiled mysteriously and said: "Not only the lizard people, but also the mushroom people. The mushroom man named Xiaoqi is heading towards the hunting trail. It seems that he wants to find a way down the mountain?"
Sangou was stunned: "Second brother, are they unable to hold on and want to escape? If they escape, can we escape too?"
"Escape? Is it really that easy to escape? How can Master Hu manage the manor so well? Besides, doesn't that hunting trail lead to the territory of the Arrow Wolf Tribe? Do they want to deliver food to the Arrow Wolf Tribe?"
Sangou said: "Second brother, what do you think they want to do?"
"It's obvious what they want to do, which is to find a way out."
"Didn't you say that they came for us? Are they retreating now?"
"Haha, they have found a way out, and then come back to fight us. Then they will steal our silver coins, seize our rough stones, and maybe even torture us about the origin of our rough stones."
Sangou chuckled and said: "These mushroom people from Te Niang are ugly, but they are quite beautiful when you think about it. Second brother, according to this, we will eventually have a battle with those mushroom people. When the time comes to kill them, we won't be able to keep them." Here?"
"I also thought there would be a battle eventually, but it's hard to say. The show is about to begin. Xiaoqi is less than a kilometer away from the lizard man exploring the path, and he is about to encounter him." Jiang Yue He smiled a little weirdly, not hiding his excitement at watching the fun.
"Second brother, are you saying they are going to fight?"
"If necessary, there will definitely be a fight."
"Then the Mushroom Men are definitely not strong enough to fight against the Lizard Men. With the Mushroom Men's miserable combat power, one Lizard Man can rub three Mushroom Men, right?"
Jiang Yue shook his head: "It's hard to say, let's see. Mushroom people must be very weak in face-to-face combat. But mushroom people have a special physique, and they still have many unique talents. If it's a sneak attack, it's hard to say that lizard people are safe. win."
In the direction of the hunting trail, the mushroom man Xiaoqi was ordered to explore a way to escape the medicine garden. As soon as they find a way out, they will immediately attack Jiang Yue and the others, seize the silver coins and rough stones they want, then destroy the corpses and traces, and run away.
This plan has been unanimously approved by them and has been implemented in full swing.
Qingzhe and the others also knew that they couldn't afford to delay. Every day it takes, the situation becomes worse for them. They must try to get it done as quickly as possible and get rid of Jiang Yue and the others before the lizard people find this place.
It's a pity that Qingzhe never calculated that those lizardmen were so courageous that they had already reached the direction of the medicine garden.
Moreover, lizard people are particularly good at escaping from the ground and their whereabouts are mysterious. Their ability to drill through the earth is no worse than that of mushroom people.
Both are two groups that are good at underground operations, and the lizard people's combat effectiveness is definitely stronger.
However, the two antenna-like tentacles on the top of the mushroom man's head are not decorations. Obviously, it is possible to warn of crises in advance.
Xiao Qi was secretly exploring the road conditions when he suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness, and then noticed the aura of the lizard man who was exploring the road.
The pure-type mushroom people group is particularly sensitive to mad-type creatures like lizard people. Because the qi and blood of mad type creatures are very powerful, and there is a unique amplitude in the aura, pure type creatures can clearly sense the existence of this kind of blood and qi.
The aura of pure creatures is relatively more concealed, and no aggressiveness is revealed. Therefore, when they meet on a narrow road, it is reasonable for the pure mushroom people to discover the mad lizard people first.
Xiao Qi immediately broke away from the original rules and hid towards the edge area. The lizard man quickly came to the area where Xiao Qi moved. He breathed his nose on the soil a few times and faintly noticed a strange smell that was different from his own.
Immediately, the lizard man's tail trembled strangely in the mud a few times, as if he was sending out some exclusive signal.
Xiao Qi, who was hiding in the dark, felt a little uneasy when he saw the lizard man's strange movements.
He had an inexplicable intuition that he had been exposed. Even if the lizard man couldn't locate his specific location, he must have sensed his aura.
The weird twitching movement of the tail just now was probably to attract friends.
Xiao Qi secretly screamed, and immediately dodged from the side, trying to avoid the lizard man, and returned to the medicine garden.
But in his panic, he obviously alerted the lizard man.
"Haha, the damn mushroom man is finally found. Do you still want to escape?"
When it comes to speed, there is definitely a huge gap between clean-type creatures and mad-type creatures with manic blood. Pure creatures inherently like silence, and their characteristic has never been speed.
Before Xiao Qi could escape halfway, he was caught up by the lizard man.
The lizard man slashed Xiao Qi's leg with a knife, and Xiao Qi suddenly let out a scream. But this was underground. The scream was buried deep in the ground and was directly drowned by the surrounding soil, turning it into a feeble groan.
Xiaoqi's leg was injured, but he was not dead. Looking at the ferocious lizard man, his eyes were full of fear.
"Tell me, are those three lizard men part of your group?"
"No...no. They are them, and we are us. We also dislike those three bastards, and we have long wanted to beat them up."
"Humph, why do I think you are a group of them? But it doesn't matter, whether you are a group or not, I will send you on your way together to save you from loneliness."
