Chapter 175: Planting Bamboo

"No need to thank me. That is what I should do." Mu Yucheng replied calmly.

"..... Mhm." Looking at his calm face, Xu Xiang was speechless.

She tidied up her messy hair and looked around. Seeing that they were standing in the middle of a dead forest, she asked, "Did you really sense the life force energy coming from here?"

Mu Yucheng didn’t answer her, but walked towards a tree not far from her. She saw him standing in front of a dead tall ancient tree, tilted her head slightly in confusion, and then walked up to him.

She stood beside him and asked, "What are you looking at?"

Pointing to the lowest branch, he said, "Look at that."

Hearing what he just said, she looked at the branch he was pointing at. When she saw the tender little leaf on the branch, she was pleasantly surprised.

Turning to look at Mu Yucheng, she asked, "The life force energy you sensed before was coming from this tree?"

Mu Yucheng nodded at her as an answer. She then looked at the small leaf and fell into deep thought. After a long silence, she asked, "Could it be that the growth of this small sprout is because of those seedlings?"

Turning to look at her, he said, "That’s what I thought. It seems that as long as there is enough time, the life force energy emitted from the roots of those seedlings can spread far away."

Hearing what he said, her eyes lit up. She looked at him and said, "Doesn’t that mean that we don’t need to plant the seeds one by one everywhere? As long as we plant enough and the seedlings can grow healthily, the surrounding soil can also be revived?"

He thought about what she said for a while, and said, "We can also do it like that. But I think that in order to achieve better results in the shortest possible time, we still need to sow these seeds in other places too."

Listening to his words, Xu Xiang nodded, sighed in disappointment and said, "Mhm, I think you are right. Then the first thing we need to do is to sow more seeds in the village and the surrounding areas."

Agreeing with her idea, Mu Yucheng nodded. Xu Xiang looked around and said, "Then let’s start with this mountain first."

After making a decision, she took a bag of seeds from the space. Opening the bag of seeds, she said, "These are purple bamboo seeds. I still have many varieties of bamboo seeds and we can plant them later if needed. So, let’s plant bamboo on this mountain. After three to four years, the villagers will be able to eat spring and winter bamboo shoots. They can also create many things with bamboo."

Mu Yucheng stared at the purple bamboo seeds, and felt that the spiritual energy emanating from these bamboo seeds was stronger than the spiritual energy emitting from the seedlings.

’If these seeds can really survive and grow, then the life force energy emitted from their roots will be several times stronger than those of the seedlings’ roots.’

"Where did you get these purple bamboo seeds?" He asked after a moment of silence.

She avoided looking into his eyes and calmly replied: "I have a bamboo forest and I collected these seeds from those bamboos."

After she finished speaking, she lowered her eyes and thought: ’I’m not lying, I really have a bamboo forest. However, it is inside my space.’

Hearing her answer, he stared at her in silence for a few seconds before saying, "I will help you sow these bamboo seeds."

Hearing what he said, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and thought: ’Fortunately, he didn’t find out that I was lying. If not, it will be hard to explain how I could plant bamboo in my space.’

Taking a glance at him and seeing his usual expressionless face, Xu Xiang took out another bag of purple bamboo seeds and handed it to him. She then took out two small shovels and two bottles of lake water from her space.

She gave him the shovel and a bottle of lake water, and said, "Here, take this."

"It’s very easy to sow these bamboo seeds. Come with me, I will teach you," As she spoke, she walked towards a barren area not far from where they were standing.

Mu Yucheng held the small shovel and one bottle of lake water in his hand, looked at her for a moment, then followed her. While the two were busy planting bamboo in the mountain, A Lu Da had just helped the refugees settle in a vacant house.

Standing outside the house, he looked at them and said, "All of you can stay here for now."

He pointed at the well in the middle of a residential area some distance away and said, "You can get water from that well for daily use. If you don’t know how to use a carbon filter, you can ask other villagers. If you need drinking water, you can go to the kitchen to get it. I will show you where the kitchen is. Please come with me."

After saying that, A Lu Da led the six elderly people to the north of the village, while the rest of them went into the house to rest. After walking for about ten minutes, they saw a tall two-story building. When the elderly people saw the kitchen building, they were amazed.

Although they had seen the houses in this village, but all those houses were not as big as this kitchen building. Standing not far from the kitchen building, A Lu Da turned to look at them.

He pointed to the kitchen building and said, "This is the kitchen. Only the kitchen staff can enter and leave this building. If you need drinking water or hot water, please ask the kitchen staff to fetch it for you."

After he finished explaining, one of the old women raised her hand and asked, "What if we want to cook? Can we borrow the kitchen?"
