Return from the second dimension

Chapter 42 The Food Sources for the Residents of Black Rock City!

As soon as he walked into the medicinal material shop, Tang Zhen smelled a very special smell.

He had smelled it a few years ago, in a temple full of incense.

It is said that this scent is derived from a precious spice, and the production of this spice is scarce. Sometimes a piece of top-quality spice can even be exchanged for a villa!

Taking a deep breath, Tang Zhen felt it carefully, the flavor of the spice was really good.

Turning his head following the taste, Tang Zhen saw a simple stone table on which a small bone incense burner was placed, and the smell escaped from the incense burner.

Seeing Tang Zhen's gaze on the incense burner, a delicate girl in a pale green leather jacket came over and said to Tang Zhen with a smile: "This is just from our shop from the Xiangdu Loucheng thousands of miles away. Spices are sweet and pure in taste, refreshing, and if used for a long time, they are also very helpful for cultivation!"

Compared with the wanderers outside, there was no trace of wind and sorrow on the girl's face, and her clothes were clean and decent.

After Tang Zhen glanced at the girl, he nodded gently and asked about the price.

Perhaps it was the reason for the high output of the different world. The price of this spice was not very expensive. Tang Zhen did not hesitate to take out the brain beads and bought a pack.

After putting away the spice, Tang Zhen looked at the other products in the medicinal store.

After looking around, Tang Zhen discovered that there are many types of medicinal materials here, but he almost didn't know it. This made his original plan to buy a few hundred-year-old ginseng, but his plan to go back and sell a high price failed.

Tang Zhen also discovered that many of the medicinal materials in the medicinal material shop were collected from monsters.

Bone marrow, gallbladder, blood meal, the raw materials of these medicinal materials all come from monsters in the wilderness.

Even in some bottles, the organs of the monsters were directly soaked, and the girl introduced that it was a medicinal wine with nourishing effects.

A variety of finished medicines were placed on the counter with transparent glass-like objects inlaid on the surface. After Tang Zhen asked about the efficacy, he bought a few bottles at random and prepared to take them back for experimentation.

Walking out of the medicinal material store, Tang Zhen was thinking about looking for a chance to get inside the building, but he inadvertently discovered that dozens of people were driving a team of carriages towards the entrance of an underground parking lot.

Tang Zhen moved in his heart, found a hidden location and opened the quantum invisibility light curtain, and walked over without a hassle.

This underground entrance is very spacious, and there are several Black Rock City monks guarding the entrance. Tang Zhen tried to relax his movements as much as possible and walked over quietly.

After Tang Zhen entered, a Black Rock City monk who was in charge of the guard looked at the underground passage with some doubt. He just seemed to hear a slight abnormal noise coming from the passage.

After confirming that there was nothing abnormal in the passage, the cultivator turned his head and ignored it.

Tang Zhen walked along the underground passage for nearly a hundred meters before realizing that he was in a huge underground space. Judging from its scale, it seemed to be similar to a square on the ground.

Perhaps this underground space is built under the square.

He carefully observed the surrounding walls of this underground space and found that the texture was extremely solid, and it was indeed a building built by Tiandiweili.

This underground space is artificially divided into countless small areas, which are filled with soil after piled up with stones.

Pouring a layer of viscous liquid with a faint smell on the surface of the soil, Tang Zhen took a look and found that every small area was like this.

Tang Zhen was very curious when he saw this, and secretly guessed what would be under the mud?

Taking out an engineer shovel from the space, Tang Zhen walked to a dark corner and dug it down with the engineer shovel.

After only digging two shovels, he felt that the engineer shovel had touched something.

When the engineers shoveled upwards forcefully, Tang Zhen saw a white raw spherical object the size of a human head, which was dug out by the engineers.

Tang Zhen cautiously stepped forward to observe, only to find that this thing turned out to be an extra-large'potato'!

Whether this thing is a potato or not, even Tang Zhen can't tell, but judging from its appearance, it does look like a potato.

Tang Zhen had never heard of such a large potato.

Tang Zhen dug a few more shovels, and found that under the soil layer, there were densely packed things like this.

Tang Zhen estimated that this thing is the main food for the residents of the Loucheng. Looking at the size of the basement and the size of the potatoes, God knows how many tons of output you will get in one harvest!

If this kind of potatoes can be harvested continuously, residents who want to come to Loucheng will not have to worry about the source of food.

Tang Zhen once felt puzzled before. If the residents of Loucheng didn't cultivate the land to sow grain, what do they eat every day?

Now he knows it, his feeling is to eat such giant potatoes!

He dug out two potatoes and put them in the storage space. He wanted to take them back and try to plant them. If successful, they would definitely fill the stomachs of many people.

However, Tang Zhen guessed that the probability of success in this matter is probably very small. If this kind of potato is so easy to cultivate, how can there be so many wanderers in the wilderness?

At this moment, the entire underground space was empty, and those people and carriages could not have disappeared for no reason, so Tang Zhen guessed that there were other spaces here.

After looking for it carefully for a while, Tang Zhen really found that in a dark corner, another sloping downward channel appeared.

"Is there another layer of space under this underground plaza?"

Tang Zhen walked into the passage while thinking.

A few minutes later, another underground space of the same size appeared in front of him. Like the square above, there are also huge potatoes planted here.

It's just that in this space, there are still a few scattered residents pouring the sticky fertilizer on the soil, but the carriage still disappears.

After Tang Zhen observed for a while, he found another entrance extending underground.

Stepping in without hesitation, Tang Zhen wanted to see how many levels of underground space this Black Rock City had?

After walking out of the passage this time, Tang Zhen did not see the spectacular potato planting scene, but saw slices of "mushrooms"!

Okay, Tang Zhen doesn't know how to describe the scene he saw, but these are more than two meters high, more than fifty centimeters in diameter, and the umbrella cover is as big as a parasol. It is indeed exactly the same as a mushroom!

These giant mushrooms are clustered next to each other, and there are small mushrooms growing below them. Except for a three-meter-wide road, these giant mushrooms are everywhere.

Among these mushrooms, residents of Loucheng cut down and cut them into small pieces, and put them into big baskets.

It seems that this kind of mushroom is also one of the foods of the residents of Loucheng. It can just adjust the monotonous taste of potatoes, or come with a pot of potato and mushroom soup, it should taste good!

Tang Zhen thought about it, feeling a little hungry.

After shaking his head and throwing this thought into his mind, Tang Zhen also dug a piece of mushroom meat and put it in the storage space.

After walking through the huge mushroom jungle, another underground passage appeared.

Tang Zhen was no longer surprised, but stepped on again.

Compared with the upper floors, Tang Zhen just walked into the passageway on this floor and smelled a fishy smell, similar to the smell of fertilizer poured on mushrooms and big potatoes.

At the same time, there was a sound of conversation and the sound of horses stomping on the ground. It was the carriage team that Tang Zhen had been chasing before.

Tang Zhen walked out of the passage and observed intently, and soon he was a little surprised to discover that in the underground plaza on this floor, there were also many pool-like isolation areas built.

And in these isolated pools, a huge white meat worm measuring two meters long is slowly creeping.

They were soaked in the liquid that fertilized the big potatoes, bite by bite, eating the feed that the residents of Loucheng scooped out of the bucket of the carriage.

Tang Zhen roughly estimated that the number of meat insects raised in this underground square would be at least thousands!

Is this fleshy big white bug the main source of meat for the residents of Loucheng?
