Chapter 836 Dilemma

Feng Jun got the blue lotus from Xue Hongsheng's storage bag. The number of people this thing can carry is limited, and it is not as good as the time shuttle. However, Xuande Cave Heaven is also from the Taoist lineage, and he does not want to take out Kunlun's things.

When Feng Tianyang saw it, his eyes lit up, "What an exquisite flying magic weapon. Master Feng deserves to have a profound knowledge."

In fact, it's not far from the mountainside to the peak, only more than 300 meters. You can climb up in the blink of an eye by stepping on the green lotus.

The mountain peak looks steep, but the area at the top of the mountain is really not small, almost... the size of one hundred acres of land, which is more than 60,000 square meters.

Of course, this is just a rough estimate. The peak is not flat, but also has uneven heights. It is covered with shrubs and trees, but the most numerous ones are tea trees, with four to five hundred plants.

Feng Jun took a quick glance and saw clearly the distribution of the tea trees. It was obvious that the three trees in the middle, guarded by many tea trees, were the legendary thousand-year-old tea trees.

The other tea trees are quite far away from these three trees, and the nearest one is forty or fifty meters away.

In fact, there are not many tea trees forty or fifty meters apart. There are about ten trees in total. They seem to be quite old - if not a thousand years, they must be hundreds of years old. Some of them are obviously hundreds of years old. .

Further out from these tea trees are the younger tea trees, but there are a few that are nearly a century old.

How could a Taoist lineage that has been passed down for thousands of years not have some profound accumulation?

The two of them descended from the sky, and saw a Taoist priest with white hair and beard walking from a hut, "I've met Junior Brother Feng."

This person is the person who looks after the tea trees. Due to the steep terrain here, it is extremely difficult to go up and down the mountain. Slings are usually used to transport supplies.

The Taibai lineage has been operating here for thousands of years, and they once carved out a steep stone step. However, they found that after passing the stone step, the secret of the top of the mountain could not be kept. Later, they spent countless manpower to destroy the stone step.

Feng Tianyang's senior brother, whose surname was Zhang, led Feng Jun to a place about seven or eight meters away from the three tea trees. "You can't get any closer, otherwise it will cause damage to the tea trees."

Feng Jun gave him a dissatisfied look, you are asking for help, you still have so many problems?

Feng Tianyang knew what he was thinking and snorted coldly, "Senior Brother Zhang, we have to be close to you every year to pick tea. Lord Feng is the expert I invited to deal with the problem. Don't neglect this distinguished guest."

Feng Jun strolled to the middle of three tea trees, looked around, frowned again, twitched his nose, and finally closed his eyes.

He stood there with his eyes closed, giving Feng Tianyang a very strange feeling, as if his whole person was integrated into nature.

Senior Brother Zhang took a breath, silently poked him, pointed forward - and looked at his feet.

Feng Jun's feet actually left the ground, not much, just about ten centimeters, and you wouldn't even notice it if you didn't look carefully.

"Senior Brother Zhang, don't talk about it," Feng Tianyang said in a low voice, "This is the state of 'walking through the sky', but you can call him the mountain master."

There are two possibilities for the state of physical body walking in the sky, one is innate, and the other is in the mortal stage. Director Feng originally wanted to call his family the Master, but later Feng Jun changed his mind and asked him to call him "Shan". host".

Senior Brother Zhang nodded excitedly, "Then our Wendao Cha may really be saved."

Feng Jun closed his eyes and felt it for three or four minutes before opening his eyes and couldn't help but sigh, "What a great place, the natural spiritual formation... Which generation of ancestors in your family discovered this?"

This mountaintop is a natural spiritual gathering array, and it is self-circulating. There is no need to place spiritual stones. Although the effect is very ordinary, the earth veins, luck, feng shui, and location selection are really amazing.

Let's put it this way, it is not easy for Feng Jun to set up such a poor spirit gathering array. It would take him too much time to just find a suitable terrain with mountains, rivers and rivers.

Otherwise, people would say that nature is so miraculous, and sometimes they really won’t accept it.

Feng Tianyang hesitated and replied, "It is said that a real Jindan was invited to modify it according to the terrain."

"Golden elixir..." Feng Jun nodded slightly, thinking that only this explanation could make sense. "It is indeed a real person's work. I think the Xuande Cave is not as good as this."

Feng Tianyang smiled sarcastically, "Xuande Cave was originally a place for Taoism. Of course, there were also places for spiritual cultivation, but most of them are now in ruins. I wonder if the mountain master can help build a spirit gathering array?"

Feng Jun didn't answer, but took out his phone and pulled it up.

Feng Tianyang and Feng Tianyang exchanged glances and didn't dare to say anything more. They didn't think that Feng Jun would be bored and check Moments or wear scarves on the top of the mountain. He probably... was calculating something with a calculator, right?

After a while, Feng Jun raised his head and said, "The spiritual energy on the top of the mountain has been decreasing, right?"

Aren't you talking nonsense? Senior Brother Zhang secretly hummed in his heart, in the Age of Dharma Ending, spiritual energy must be decreasing year by year, could it be possible to increase it?

Feng Tianyang nodded, "Master Feng is right. A hundred years ago, half a catty of Wenwen tea was produced here every year. Now it is almost less than one catty. The decrease has been particularly severe in the past two years."

"The decrease in production is related to the loss of ground veins," Feng Jun said calmly, "But in the past two years, there should be insects."

"High!" Feng Tianyang gave a thumbs up. He knew the situation of these three tea trees very well. He hadn't explained it clearly before, but he also wanted to weigh up what this Feng Shanzhu, who was suspected of being in the world, was like. Such level.

At this moment, he was really convinced, "It's just that this bug is very strange, I don't know where it came from..."

Strictly speaking, it is normal to have bugs on trees, and the same goes for tea trees.

But the top-quality Wenwen tea comes not only from these three ancient tea trees, but also from the first crop every spring.

A total of three trees can produce one pound of tea. You can imagine how high the requirements for tea buds are.

Generally speaking, even if it is not Wenwen tea, just ordinary green tea, the best tea is the first one picked before the Ming Dynasty, that is, the first bud that grows after the tea tree has been stagnant for a whole winter. That is really the best tea. The best of the best.

It's just like Chinese toon. The first crop that grows in spring is the most fragrant. In summer...who still eats Chinese toon?

But the reason why the green tea picked in Mingqiantou is expensive is that, in addition to being fresh and tender, there is another important point - no pesticides.

Tea trees will grow insects. Before Qingming, the insects have not developed after winter, so there is no need to spray pesticides.

Of course, this Ming Dynasty is just a general term. For places further south, harvesting may begin before Jingzhe, while for places further north, harvesting may not begin before Qingming.

Taibai Mountain is not particularly far to the north, but Wenwen tea grows on the top of a high mountain. There is no way to pick tea before dawn. It would be good to pick tea before it rains.

But again, this is the top of the mountain. Before Guyu, there were basically no insects. Even if the insects at the bottom of the mountain have revived, they can't fly so high.

There are more than 400 Wenwen tea plants in Taibai Mountain, ranging from the top to the most ordinary. They are never treated with pesticides. They are absolutely green food, purely natural and pollution-free.

When it comes to tea, you have to ask, if pesticides are used, what does that mean?

If we don’t use pesticides, what should we do if there are insects? Introduce natural enemies, or...just catch them with your hands.

Especially for the three ancient tea trees, it is purely manual pest control. Unless it is in autumn, maybe a wave of pesticides is sprayed occasionally, which is also to kill the bugs and not let them survive the winter.

In the past two years, traces of insects have been found before the new buds of Wenwen tea have emerged. Especially in the areas where the buds are about to explode, the small black bugs are extremely dense.

Brother Zhang can remove the insects by hand, but no buds have grown. Even if you rub it a few times, it will be fine. But if you rub it a lot, will the buds still grow?

What's even worse is that he has been looking at tea trees for most of his life and can't recognize what kind of insect it is.

He feels like there's nothing he can do about it. "I feel like it's because of global warming."

He caught a few small black bugs and showed them to Feng Jun. "Look at these bugs, I have never seen them before. The key is that they still have a strange smell. If you wash them off with water, you can't drink the tea."

Feng Jun had never planted tea trees before, so he didn't know what kind of insect it was. Although he felt that it might not be possible to search for this thing using pictures - after all, even the old tea workers didn't know it, but he still searched it.

Sure enough, it couldn't be found.

But he knew the reason why this insect... appeared roughly, "Fellow Daoist Feng, this is not a problem for you. I can help you solve it, but at least one ancient tea tree must be destroyed. Can you accept it?"

"No," Senior Brother Zhang jumped up first, "Three trees, there are only three trees left in total... Do you want to destroy one more?"

"I mean at least one tree," Feng Jun said calmly, "Maybe two, but...if the old ones don't go, the new ones won't come."

Feng Tianyang hesitated for a long time, and finally smiled bitterly, "It's hard for you to do this for me, it's a tree left by our ancestors."

"What's so embarrassing about this," Feng Jun sneered at this, UU Readingｗww.uｕkanshu.net "Are people immortal? Are trees immortal? I think you at least want me to ask... Why are there trees dying? ."

"Okay," Feng Tianyang sighed, "Why are there ancient tea trees dying?"

Feng Jun chuckled, "I think your attitude in asking questions is too casual and not serious enough."

"Okay," Feng Tianyang nodded, "Let's go down the mountain first, halfway up the mountain, and I'll help you, the mountain master, to wash away the dust... When you ask for advice, of course you have to have an attitude of asking for advice."

Without saying a word, Feng Jun offered Qinglian again, "Okay, don't be so stressed. The headache you have is not a big deal at all. I have several ways to deal with it. If you don't believe it, , you can ask Tang Wangsun or Guan Shanyue to be witnesses."

Guan Shanyue's Magu Mountain is very average now, but Maoshan, where Tang Wangsun lives, has become really famous in the Taoist sect this year.

Feng Tianyang pondered for a moment and asked, "Does the ancient tea tree have to die?"

"Who can escape birth, old age, sickness and death?" Feng Jun sighed, and then raised his voice a little, "I said, are you going to go down the mountain? If you want to go down, come up to Qinglian!"
