Chapter 196 Fertile Land, Abundant Spirit Herbs
In front of Lu Yu was a large piece of black land.
The color of the soil was as black as coal, and the soil was spa.r.s.e and loose. Not only was it rich in nutrients, but it also had a high water storage capacity.
Such valuable land was naturally used to grow all kinds of spirit herbs.
The spirit herbs grown on this land were so good that they could even double their effects!
Lu Yu squatted behind an inconspicuous rock and carefully looked at the plants in the herb garden.
These spirit herbs were ripe, and they were all rare herbs. Among them were the spirit herbs Lu Yu needed to make his medicinal bath.
If he could occupy this herb garden and occupy another hunting ground, he would not have to worry about the blood essence medicinal bath he needed in the future.
It was already autumn, and the air was a little colder. The herbs in the stronghold ahead had matured, and it was time to harvest.
Lu Yu continued to observe and found that there were more than just herbs, with spirit grains and spirit fruits around.
Eating these would be a great help for one’s cultivation.
This large piece of land was naturally fertile, and the area was about the size of ten football fields!
If they took over this stronghold, then the Featherwing Club would never lack medicine and food in the future.
Lu Yu continued to observe. He saw more than ten people from the Pharmaceutical Club, and they seemed to be harvesting a portion of the matured medicinal herbs.
Lu Yu could easily deal with these people.
The key was where the captain of this stronghold was. That was the person Lu Yu had to deal with first.
As long as he defeated the captain in charge of this place, Lu Yu would be able to let the people of his club take over the place.
At the edge of this land was a row of wooden houses. It was the residence of the members of the stronghold.
Among those wooden houses, there was a unique one. It was built with rare and expensive gold-threaded wood, looking luxurious from the outside.
At that moment, the wooden house opened its door, and a man in a black suit walked out with a few underlings beside him.
After he gave a few orders, the people with him dispersed and began to harvest the matured spirit herbs.
He stood beside the field and supervised their work.
It appears that he was the captain here.
Lu Yu was not in a hurry to make his move and just watched as they finished harvesting all the spirit herbs in the field.
After harvesting, they put the spirit herbs on the ground and further categorized them.
After categorising them, the captain pointed to the warehouse not far away.
“Move everything into the warehouse.”
More than ten people put the bundled-up spirit herbs into the warehouse. At the same time, each of them would take a few spirit herbs and put them into their own storage.
This kind of situation was common. It’s the same as a chef taking a few morsels from a dish. Even if these members took more than ten spirit herbs each, it was completely undetectable.
Everyone gathered in the middle of the wooden house. The captain looked at everyone and shouted, “This year’s harvest is a great success, and everyone has worked hard! Later, you can collect your rewards and then prepare for the next sowing.”
“Yes!”
The crowd replied loudly.
Then, the captain took out his cell phone and dialed a number.
“h.e.l.lo, brother Liu. I have finished harvesting here, and it’s ready for sale.”
“Oh, uh, which stronghold are you from? I forgot.”
“I am the Pharmaceutical Club’s main stronghold in the wild forest. My name is Cao Long, and I am the captain here. When can you come over to collect the goods?”
“Oh, right, Cao Long, don’t worry. I’ll be there in two days. Just wait for a while, as I’m busy here.”
The other party hung up the phone. Although Cao Long was a little unhappy, he didn’t say much.
The market for spirit herbs was huge. So when it was time to harvest, anyone in this line of work would be busy, and Cao Long knew this.
“Everyone, you can go rest for a few days. These spirit herbs will be sold soon. When the time comes, we can go and enjoy ourselves!”
Everyone was excited and cheered one after another.
A smile flashed across Cao Long’s face. He suddenly remembered that he still had a new mission to do.
That was to suppress the newly formed Featherwing Club!
However, he couldn’t do that over the next two days. Only after selling the spirit herbs could he go and find trouble with the Featherwing Club!
With this thought in mind, Cao Long found a chair and sat down. He began to think about how to deal with the Featherwing Club.
While Cao Long was in his thoughts, Lu Yu had already walked out of where he hid.
Lu Yu walked toward this group of people with quick steps. They were immersed in joy, and no one paid attention to Lu Yu.
After some time, someone finally noticed Lu Yu. He couldn’t help but shout, “There’s someone there!”
The rest of the cheering crowd stopped and looked over.
To their surprise, they discovered a figure walking toward them.
“Who is this guy? Why is he here?”
“I don’t know. It doesn’t look like he’s one of us.”
“Could he be someone sent by the club? Why don’t we go and take a look?”
The people from the Pharmaceutical Club rendezvous with Lu Yu. No matter who it was, they had to stop him in advance.
If the person was here to cause damage, they might be able to save a large area of the plantation if they stopped him in advance.
Cao Long, who was resting, saw that his subordinates were walking in the same direction. He hurriedly stood up and followed them.
“Hey, who are you? Why are you here?”
“Are you lost? Hurry up and go back the way you came!”
“You don’t have our badge on your chest, which means you’re not a member of the Pharmaceutical Club. You can leave now!”
“Hey, we’ve already warned you. If you take another step forward, you’ll be attacked!”
Someone threatened.
Faced with their threats, Lu Yu didn’t panic and continued to walk forward.
“f.u.c.k, are you deaf? We want you to go back. Do you understand?”
“You still dare to walk forward? You’re playing with fire!”
Lu Yu looked at the crowd and shouted, “I want to meet your captain!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure walked out of the crowd.
“My name is Cao Long, and I’m the captain here. What’s the matter?”
“I’m the President of the Featherwing Society. I want this stronghold!”
Hearing this, everyone was stunned.
They had all heard of the Featherwing Club’s name. To them, this was a rare new club and was simply a joke to them.
But what surprised them was that in the Battle of the Hundred Clubs, this new club had obtained first place…
Cao Long looked at Lu Yu with a grave expression. “You want it? Are you taking yourself seriously? You are just a new club; why should I be afraid of you?”
“I’ll tell you the truth. The higher-ups of the Pharmaceutical Club have already informed me about chasing the Featherwing Club out of the wild forest!”
“I didn’t expect that you would actually come knocking on my door. Since that’s the case, I’ll just make a move. I originally planned to wait two days before doing this.”
Cao Long’s face revealed a scornful smile. Today was sure a big harvest. First, he successfully harvested his crops, and then his mission target came knocking on his door. It was simply a wonderful day.
Lu Yu’s face also revealed a smile. A confident smile. “That’s great. I was starting to think you don’t dare to fight me.”
