Chapter 55: Loose cultivators full of embarrassed looking for a monthly ticket)
Because it is close to the Purple Jade Mountains, there is no shortage of first-grade purple jade flowers. Whether it is Xiaofang City, Cormorant Lake Xiaohui, or Xiaokanshanfang City, the price of purple jade flowers is not high.
However, the first-level low-grade purple jade flower is good news for those who want to raise purple jade green bees. Although it cannot be planted on a large scale, planting a few plants will be of great benefit to the future purple jade green bees.
Therefore, after getting the Purple Jade Flower, his first thought was not to sell it, but to transplant it and take it back to the cave to plant near the spiritual veins. The little he added made more, and he could expand the scale to satisfy the Purple Jade Green Bees to collect pollen and brew spiritual nectar. At the same time, he could also use a small amount
Sell in exchange for spirit stones.
In the past few months, with Zhao Shoushou's investment and careful cultivation of five low-grade spiritual stones every month, the originally weak spiritual veins have stabilized, and the amount of spiritual power emitted every day has increased.
Although there have been no other obvious changes yet, he firmly believes that as long as he cultivates it step by step and carefully, it can one day develop into a true first-order low-grade spiritual vein.
According to the current energy estimation of the spiritual veins, in addition to supplying the growth of spiritual rice, it is still possible to cultivate three or five first-order low-grade elixirs, and the first-order low-grade purple jade flower is currently the most suitable choice.
The hunt for the first-level low-grade Purple Jade Green Bee worker bees lasted for two days. Perhaps because the large reduction in worker bees made the queen feel that danger was approaching, the pollen-gathering operation was canceled starting from the third day.
In two days, Zhao Shoushou killed a total of 115 worker bees and picked three first-grade low-grade purple jade flowers and one first-grade low-grade earth element grass. It was a considerable harvest.
Among the seven casual cultivators, Lao Mang, a physical cultivator, still took the lead in hunting down worker bees, successfully hunting 130 worker bees; Zhao Shoushou ranked 2115th, and Qian Jin ranked 391st;
Liu Lou ranked fourth with 75 birds; Kunxing ranked fifth with 36 birds; Wang You ranked fifth with 30 birds; and Wu Bi ranked last with only 15 birds.
In the two-day operation, a total of 424 first-level low-grade Purple Jade Green Bee worker bees were killed, which was more than half of the worker bees in the entire hive. It can be said that the results of the battle are impressive.
Although the worker bees are no longer leaving the nest, the area around the Green Bee hive is much quieter. This is the best time to launch an attack on the hive.
"Most of the worker bees have been killed by us, but there are still some fish that have slipped through the net, but there is nothing to worry about. Lao Mang feels that we should continue our efforts and capture the hive in one go."
"Although the loss of worker bees is not small, there are still a lot of purple jade green bees left. Qian thinks that he can wait a day or two and kill one round."
"Since the queen bee has sensed the approaching danger, she will definitely try her best to hatch bee pupae and cultivate new worker bees. If the delay continues, it will be us who will lose after all. Zhao actually agrees with fellow Taoist Mang's opinion."
"One vigorous effort, then another failure, three times exhaustion, it is just a hive. Liu is willing to pioneer the way. If it attracts the attention of interested people, it will be a side issue. Only by getting it in the heart as soon as possible can we be at ease."
A few obeyed, but in the end the seven monks decided to attack the hive immediately. In fact, it was the last sentence that moved the monks the most.
The first-order low-grade Purple Jade Green Bee is an advanced version of the ordinary bee. Although it has become a first-order low-grade spirit insect, it still has the disadvantage of being afraid of fire. Each of the seven casual cultivators contributed a first-order low-grade Fireball Talisman to be used as the first wave of attacks.
The blazing fireball scatters the spiritual bees gathered in the hive.
The reason why the threat of Purple Jade Green Bees made the seven casual cultivators hesitate is that the bee venom brought by attacking in groups is unbearable. To deal with the spiritual bees and annihilate them separately is the most effective strategy.
As for whether the fireball talisman method will work, they are not too sure. They are just slowly exploring according to the methods they currently have. At least it can bring a certain amount of damage and panic to the Purple Jade Green Bee, and then they can attack in groups.
It can be regarded as weakening the strength of the Purple Jade Green Bee.
"First-class low-grade fireball talisman, edict". After Zhao Shoushou, who was at the front, shouted loudly, the seven casual cultivators activated the talisman in their hands, and eighteen hot fireballs surrounded the hive.
.
"Buzz buzz" Before the fireball exploded, the special sound of the first-order low-grade Purple Jade Green Bee, who felt the threat of death, had already come.
Only the remaining four hundred worker bees were seen in the darkness outside the hive. Using the weak body of the bees to overcome their natural fear, they lined up in a neat queue like moths rushing to the flame. Every twenty or so workers formed a team and rushed towards the first level in the opposite direction.
The low-grade fireball is just to ensure the integrity of the hive.
It seems like a spectacular scene, but it has already been determined that the purpose of worker bees' existence is to brew Lingfeng honey to feed the bee colonies, and to fight to the death when encountering foreign enemies.
"Fellow Taoists, set out to kill the Purple Jade Green Bees. Lingfeng honey and royal jelly are waving to us." Lao Mang, who was impatient during the battle, shouted and was the first to rush towards the hive.
The remaining six casual cultivators were also unwilling to lag behind. After each swallowing a first-class low-grade detoxification pill, they might use talismans, brew spells, or use magic weapons to launch fierce attacks on the hive.
In addition to a small number of worker bees in the hive who were lucky enough to survive the fireball explosion, more than a hundred obviously stronger drones were already lingering at the entrance of the hive. They usually take care of themselves and are responsible for mating with the queen bee. They also fight against the queen bee to protect the hive.
in the end.
The strong body of the drone naturally carries more bee venom and combat power. These drones are also the last obstacle for Zhao Shoushou and other seven monks to obtain the hive.
As the core, these worker bees and the drones desperately protect the queen bee, but they have no fighting power. The queen bee's only mission is to reproduce offspring.
However, when the queen bee feels that all her subordinates are dead, she will kill herself immediately. It is impossible for the monks to master the ready-made queen bee. If they want new purple jade green bees, they can only breed them again.
It was said that it was too late, but it was so fast. From the activation of the fireball talisman to the outbreak of the battle between the seven casual cultivators and the remaining spirit bees, everything happened in an instant.
The talismans and spells flew together. Under the control of Zhao Shoushou and Liu Lou, the only two magic weapons showed their power, killing the spirit bees that were trying to fight back to the ground. Lao Mang waved the heavy mace in his hand.
The dance was so strong that the spirit bees it bumped into were ejected far away.
Whether it was water arrows, earth thorns, or fireballs, the five-element spells could kill several spirit bees every time. Although the seven casual cultivators had the upper hand, the counterattack of the spirit bees who still had the numerical advantage was equally heartbreaking.
Even though Zhao Shoushou and others were mentally prepared, when the spirit bee carried the stinger on its tail and made close contact with the skin, the heart-wrenching feeling still made the monks scream in agony.
I don't know whether it was after a cup of tea, a stick of incense, a quarter of an hour or an hour, but when the last spiritual bee was killed, the seven monks looked at their heads full of buns and let out a burst of hearty laughter.
As the saying goes: It is not easy to practice as a casual practitioner. It is full of pain and heartache. Just to find the honey of Lingfeng, move forward bit by bit.
