Chapter 2446 - 1423
Tang Feiyang instructed the team to stop here, intending to fight with those monkeys again during the day.
They chose to stay in this place because they wanted to pick some fruits to eat.
If they couldn’t win the fight, they could still trade items with the monkeys.
Why must they steal? Why must they rob?
They could just trade.
They hadn’t considered this before, but now the idea came to mind.
What do monkeys like?
They could communicate, even if the less capable monkeys couldn’t, the Monkey Immortal should be able to, right?
It’s just that before coming here, they didn’t know what kind of food the Demonic Beasts inside liked.
What kind of items would the Demonic Beasts prefer?
During the exchange process, of course, they needed the other party’s consent to achieve their goal.
Since they couldn’t win in battle, they thought of alternative methods to obtain substances.
Negotiating with monkeys to exchange their fruits, using other things as barter, like different fruits.
Apart from the Monkey King who contracted with the owner and got some fruit trees from him, seedlings were then planted in this space.
But that’s just part of the fruit trees, and the variety is obviously not that complete.
The fruit trees Jiang Tang provided back then were not as complete as those planted in the current base.
After all, Jiang Tang of that time didn’t have the experience like now, traveling through many realms, obtaining different realm fruits.
Last time, they gained a lot of fruit trees in a certain realm, in a particular forest.
Those fruit seeds left behind, apart from those seedlings, could be grafted branches.
Planted at the base, they could also be distributed to many people, who after receiving would plant them in their orchards or families’ orchards, some even in their Planting Treasures.
Everyone’s Planting Treasure is different, but they all desire the same treatment where seedlings planted in treasures wouldn’t vary with seasons.
After their improvement, the trees wouldn’t bear fruit only once every few years or decades.
If it takes that long to bear fruit, what would they eat?
The improved seedlings could bear flowers and fruit throughout the year, simultaneously blooming and fruiting; if the owner doesn’t pick the fruit, they won’t fall off.
Throughout the seasons during growth, fruits are produced, making fruit consumption convenient for cultivators.
Some might not like eating fruits, some might not enjoy drinks, but many do love drinking wine.
Fruits can be brewed into wine.
Fruits produced year-round not only beautify and nourish but also enhance abilities.
The conditions proposed by Tang Feiyang’s team for fruit exchange were agreed upon by the Monkey King.
Owning the orchard, they too wanted to taste other fruits.
Eating primarily fruit from the orchard can become tiresome over time.
Though the Monkey Immortal could fast, they didn’t desire Pills, choosing to eat fruits, Spirit Grass, absorbing ambient energy to enhance their power like other monkeys.
They also desire to taste other delicacies, similar to humans catching other Demons for roasting.
They can also catch fish from rivers and lakes for grilling.
They haven’t ruled out adopting human agriculture for rice grain consumption.
However, as a monkey group, they aren’t truly human. Achieving true human-like farming, fertilization, and harvesting?
The Monkey King doesn’t want it; they would be lazy.
Knowing if this space could cultivate grains.
Fruit tree planting is certainly easier to manage than cropping food grains or vegetables.
Moreover, there’s naturally growing Spirit Grass in the space’s orchard.
To alter the space planting, they need technology, which they lack.
The flourishing fruit growth is due to magical practices.
Tang Feiyang’s team successfully exchanged for many fruits, personally picking them from various fruit trees.
The joy of fruit picking involves removing large, red fruits from the trees.
Cut down ripe bananas.
The monkeys agreed, but on the condition that humans must complete the trade for desired fruits first. Otherwise, taking fruits without trading would deceive them.
Other monkeys can only follow the Monkey Immortal; when seeing unfamiliar fruits, they can’t help but swallow.
Delighted, they disregard humans picking fruits.
Although while humans pick fruits, they secretly watch, fearing all their fruits might be taken away.
Tang Feiyang’s group isn’t overly greedy because many picked fruits contain seeds, all viable for planting.
If some fruit juices lack seeds, they use branches for grafting.
Every fruit must be obtained, later transplanted to diversify fruit species in the future.
After picking fruits, they left the orchard, only staying in nearby areas.
They didn’t venture further, enjoying sunshine energy absorption during the day, besides flower gathering, leisurely cultivating.
At night, occasionally haunted by ghosts, they were easily subdued and eliminated.
Ever since the team dealt with ten of the most powerful ghosts, only the foolish ghosts dared to provoke them, others wouldn’t.
