  Chapter 140 Inner Ghost

  After discussing for a while, everyone still couldn't find an effective solution, so they had no choice but to leave Lingzhi Garden one after another.

   "Cheng Ning, take me to find a dying Mizusawa spirit peach. I have some clues about these zerg, but I still need to verify it."

   After most of the people left, Lu Xuan said to the handsome young man who was still following behind him.

   "Huh? Okay, Senior Lu!"

  Hearing Lu Xuan's words, Zhang Chengning, who was already frowning, showed joy, and responded in a low voice.

  He led Lu Xuan through the mud, and after a while, he came to a Mizusawa Spirit Peach in a worrying state.

   "There are already a large number of hollow parts inside the torso of this spiritual plant, which has seriously affected its normal growth. The spiritual planter in the family tried their best to save it, so they had to let it fend for itself."

  Lu Xuan carefully inspected this watery spirit peach, and indeed, as Zhang Chengning said, there are many hollow areas in the trunk, branches and leaves.

  Without hesitation, he pulled out the seriously ill Mizusawa spirit peach, pretended to observe it for a while, and then planted it in the mud.

   After completing the procedure of [planting], Lu Xuan's mind was concentrated on the seriously ill Mizusawa Spirit Peach, and a message flashed through his mind.

  【Shuize Lingtao, a first-grade spiritual plant, usually lives in mud swamps. Ripe spirit peaches are rich in spiritual power and can be eaten as spiritual fruit, or used as the main material for refining certain elixirs. 】

[Being invaded and parasitized by grain-like insects, the vitality is greatly damaged. You can control the fire-type spells, bake the surface of the branches of Mizusawa spirit peaches, and under the stimulation of fire-type spiritual power, the grain-like insects will have an instinctive reaction, which is different from the normal branches of Lingzhi. open. 】

  【It is required that the ability to control fire spells should not be lower than the Xiaocheng realm, otherwise it may cause damage to Lingzhi. 】

"Stimulated by fire spells... This Mizusawa spirit peach is as afraid of fire as the grain-like insect, but under the baking of the spirit fire, the spirit plant does not respond at all, and the shape of the grain-like insect is the same as the branch of the spirit plant. It reacts differently when exposed to flames."

   "It is essentially a demon insect, and it will naturally make a choice of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, so that it can be selected from spiritual plants."

   "Normally speaking, spiritual planters would not use this method, because they are worried that Lingzhi will be burned by the flames in the process, so monks with exquisite control ability in fire magic are needed."

   Lu Xuan secretly thought in his heart.

   Turning his head and seeing Zhang Chengning looking at him expectantly, he said gently.

   "Don't worry, I have already learned a lot about this pest infestation, and I will be able to help you solve it soon."

   After finishing speaking, he brought Zhang Chengning back to the Zhang family.

   "Senior Sister Yao, I'm Lu Xuan. I've discovered something about the pest infestation of the Mizusawa Spirit Peach. I came here to discuss it with you, Senior Sister."

  After returning to Zhang's house, Lu Xuan went directly to the beautiful woman's resting place, knocked on the door and asked.

   "Junior Brother Lu, please come in."

  Lu Xuan pushed open the door, Yao Qing was sitting on the wooden chair, looking at himself with a smile.

   "Did Junior Brother find the source of those strange insects?"

   "Senior sister is familiar with me. I have no other hobbies, but I like some miscellaneous things about spiritual plants and beasts."

   "After I came back, I thought about it for a while, and finally remembered that I seemed to have seen information about that strange insect in a certain classic of the sect."

   "The strange worm is called a striatum, and its eggs are parasitic on the spiritual plant. During the growth process, it will gradually imitate the shape of the spiritual plant, so it looks as if it is integrated with the spiritual plant, and it is extremely difficult to find its trace."

   "When it enters the mature stage, after the mitophyte has grabbed enough vitality from the inside of the spiritual plant, it will leave the spiritual plant and multiply until the new parasitism begins."

   "Princetoid, I haven't heard of this name, but I believe in you, junior brother, but does junior brother have a way to deal with it?"

  Senior Sister Yao asked curiously.

  Although she manages a medicine garden for Master Zhuji, her main energy is still on practice. She only knows some methods of cultivating spiritual plants, and knows little about others.

  However, she already believed half or half of what Lu Xuan said. After all, Lu Xuan's improvement of the quality of Houmianlan left a very deep impression on her.

   "The method is not very difficult. It only needs a monk who is good at fire magic, bake it with slow fire, and according to the changes of spiritual plants, find out the weeds hidden in the branches."

  Lu Xuan paused, and continued.

   "However, there is one thing I want to tell you, Senior Sister, that this kind of tritium is not common, and its reproductive ability is low, so it rarely appears in large numbers in the same area."

  Hearing Lu Xuan's words, Yao Qing frowned slightly, with a cold expression.

   "Junior brother, this may be the Zhang family cultivator guarding himself?"

   "Of course, it is also possible that other monks sneaked into the Lingzhi Garden and placed the worm eggs on the Mizusawa Spirit Peach."

   "It's just that the Zhang family claims that Yutang should not know the inside story, otherwise he wouldn't ask Tianjianzong for help."

  Yao Qing quickly figured out the pros and cons, turned around and left neatly.

   "I'm going to discuss it with the Patriarch of the Zhang Family. Thank you Junior Brother Lu this time."

   Night falls.

  In the huge Lingzhi Garden, it was very quiet. The moonlight poured on the branches, leaves and fruits of the Mizusawa Spirit Peach, as if there were layers of water flickering, faint ripples appearing and disappearing.

  A black shadow dexterously entered the Lingzhi Garden through the hazy moonlight.

  He observed the surrounding area, everything was silent, and the monks who were patrolling the Lingzhi Garden also took a rest.

  Heiying was relieved immediately, and there were bursts of weird insect chirps from his mouth, the sound was as thin as a mosquito, and it was almost imperceptible.

  Not long after the sound of the insects, the branches and leaves of the Mizusawa Spirit Peach trembled all around, and a section of strange insects that looked like branches fell off the tree, crawled slowly in the mud, and rushed towards the shadow.

   "This insect repellent technique is indeed effective, and it can automatically gather the platypus worms. Unfortunately, it only affects the adults, and has little effect on the larvae that are still in a parasitic and simulated state."

  Heiying secretly thought in his heart that the arrival of the three monks of Tianjianzong made him feel a great sense of crisis, so he had to take a risk and use the obtained insect repellent technique to gather the mature weeds together.

  Although he knew that the habits and shapes of the tritomata were quite weird, and the possibility of being discovered in large numbers was very low, but after all, the opposite was a monk from a large sect, and he might really find a solution to the tritura.

  If the parasitic worms parasitic in the Lingzhi Garden wear too much, his reward will be much reduced.

   "I took this batch of Tritidae worms, and after two or three more visits, almost all of them are in my hands."

   "Hey, what about the Heavenly Sword Sect, planting so many Mizusawa spirit peaches in the Zhang family, it's not for me to make a wedding dress."

   Sombra is proud of himself.

  Suddenly, the misty aura lit up, and several figures appeared under the aura.

   "I didn't expect my Zhang family to have a young man like you."

  The Patriarch of the Zhang Family's indifferent voice sounded, and he paused every word, as if infinite anger was brewing.
