Bringing the farm to another world

Chapter 15992 Notification
Huo Lei did not object. Although he was the gang leader, he also had to work. Such a small gang could not possibly allow a gang leader who was completely off-duty. So Huo Lei led the men down into the river first. In less than an hour, they came up from the river, but their faces were all pale and they did not look well.

Wu Lingfeng was startled. He quickly went to greet Huo Lei and asked, "Boss Huo, what's wrong? Why do you all look so pale?"

Huo Lei shook his head and then said, "You're oversimplifying things. There are many aquatic plants in this river, but you need to know water-based magic. Also, the water temperature in this river is very low, and people really can't stay in it for very long. No wonder half of the people from each gang rested on the shore before. If they stayed in the river for an hour, they would have almost no fighting power when they first came up. If they were attacked at that time, it would be like waiting to die. So you have to be careful after you go down. Also, remember, you only need this kind of aquatic plant." After he finished speaking, he took out a kind of aquatic plant. This aquatic plant was all green and very long. Many small leaves grew on a very soft long stem, which looked quite beautiful.

Wu Lingfeng and the others glanced at each other, then responded. They then dived directly into the river. As soon as they entered, Wu Lingfeng immediately used a water-repelling technique, but he quickly understood what Huo Lei meant. Huo Lei had said that the water temperature in the river was very low, and it was indeed true. Although he used the water-repelling technique, the water temperature was really low. He felt as if he had entered a frozen wasteland, which was not a pleasant feeling.

Fortunately, the energy in the water seemed decent. They dived to the bottom and saw large patches of aquatic plants, almost all of the same kind Huo Lei had brought out. They immediately started harvesting the plants. After about an hour, Wu Lingfeng and the others swam to the surface. Wu Lingfeng's complexion was pale and bluish-white. The water temperature was too low, and after an hour, they were finding it unbearable.

Of course, Wu Lingfeng could endure it, but he couldn't do that, as it would be too conspicuous. So he returned to the shore with the others. Huo Lei and the others had already recovered. Huo Lei told Wu Lingfeng and the others to stay on the shore while he led his men back down. After repeating this several times, it was getting dark. Seeing the time, Huo Lei immediately ordered everyone to return to their courtyard. After eating, Huo Lei invited Li Tong and Wu Lingfeng to the tavern. Huo Lei always made sure to take the two of them with him when he went out. This wasn't because Huo Lei liked to show off, but because the incident with the demonic cultivators had made him wary. He was worried that there might be danger if he didn't bring Wu Lingfeng. After all, he would have been in danger last time if it weren't for Wu Lingfeng.

Not long after Huo Lei arrived, Boss Gong arrived as well. Huo Lei quickly invited Boss Gong to sit down, and then they started drinking together. Boss Gong also brought two other people with him. The group ate and drank happily at the table. Huo Lei asked Boss Gong some questions about harvesting aquatic plants. Boss Gong told Huo Lei that, just as he had said before, there was no competition between them and Huo Lei. The Green Wood Sect had a high demand for aquatic plants and poplar trees, so they didn't need to compete. No matter how much aquatic plant they harvested, the Green Wood Sect would take it all. What was there to fight for? Moreover, each of them had a limit on how much aquatic plant they could harvest each day. Even if you occupied a large area, it wouldn't matter. As long as the number of people in your gang didn't increase, the amount of aquatic plants harvested each day wouldn't increase. Therefore, they had no intention of competing.

Moreover, these independent cultivators' gangs are all like the Azure Wolf Sect. There's no such thing as being a gang leader and not having to do anything, just waiting for your subordinates to pay you tribute. That won't work. If you really do that, everyone in your gang will run away the next day. You could say that the gang leaders of these gangs also have to do their own work. So under normal circumstances, they won't expand their gangs. No matter how big the gang expands, they won't earn an extra spirit stone, so why bother expanding the gang?

Over the next few days, the Green Wolf Gang gradually learned how to harvest water plants from the river. On the tenth day, Huo Lei settled the accounts, and this time their income was almost equivalent to a month's income when they used to cut down trees. Keep in mind that only ten days had passed, which was definitely good news for the Green Wolf Gang. They were all even more motivated.

About a month passed. That evening, Wu Lingfeng had finished his training and was about to rest when a jade sword suddenly appeared in front of him. Wu Lingfeng was startled and immediately took the jade sword to look at its contents. His expression became serious.

This jade sword was given to him by Lu Yi. The jade sword said that the tavern owner had made a move. He sensed a very slight energy fluctuation in the direction of the tavern, which had never appeared before. The energy fluctuation seemed to be the energy fluctuation of a communication array. Although the energy fluctuation was very slight, Lu Yi still felt it.

Upon seeing the letter, Wu Lingfeng immediately replied, mainly asking if he had reported the news to the sect. If so, he should wait and see what the sect's response would be.

After replying to Lu Yi, Wu Lingfeng sat quietly in his room waiting. The communication jade sword arrived again soon. This time, Lu Yi told Wu Lingfeng that the sect had replied to him. The sect already knew about the matter and would send people to support them. Moreover, this time, the people coming to support them would be experts.

After reading the contents of the jade sword, Wu Lingfeng couldn't help but frown. It was a good thing that the sect had sent people to support them again, but there was also a problem. Whenever the sect sent people, he would have to contact them. If this happened too often, it would arouse Huo Lei's suspicion, which was not a good thing.

Thinking of this, Wu Lingfeng took out a jade slip, entered some information into it, and then took out a communication array. He placed the jade slip on the array and teleported out. However, before that, he first used a protective shield to cover himself, so as to block the energy fluctuations of the communication array. Although the energy fluctuations of the communication array were very small, he was still worried that he would be discovered. Wasn't it because the tavern owner did not pay attention to this matter that Lu Yi discovered it?

After sending the jade slip out, Wu Lingfeng sat there quietly waiting. A short while later, a jade slip returned from the sect. Wu Lingfeng immediately picked it up, glanced at its contents, and upon reading them, his expression relaxed. He then stood up, disregarding the fact that it was already past midnight, and went straight to Huo Lei's door, knocking. Huo Lei's voice immediately came through: "Who is it?"

Wu Lingfeng said, "Boss Huo, it's me. I need to talk to you. Can we go inside?"

Huo Lei's voice came from inside: "Old Wu, come in." Wu Lingfeng responded and then pushed open the door and went in. Huo Lei also came out of the bedroom inside.

After the two sat down in the living room, Huo Lei looked at Wu Lingfeng and said, "Old Wu, why can't we talk about this tomorrow? Why do we have to talk about it today?"

Wu Lingfeng shook his head and said, "Boss Huo, this matter is very important, and I want to tell you as soon as possible." Actually, this matter could be discussed tomorrow, but Wu Lingfeng still felt it was better to say it tonight, because he didn't know when something might happen, and he had to tell Huo Lei as soon as possible.

Huo Lei nodded and said, "Okay, then you go ahead."

Wu Lingfeng nodded, then immediately used a soundproofing spell, so that only the two of them could hear what they were saying. This surprised Huo Lei even more, and he looked at Wu Lingfeng with some confusion. Wu Lingfeng looked at Huo Lei and then said, "Boss Huo, there's something I lied to you about, and that's my identity." He paused here and glanced at Huo Lei.

Huo Lei looked at Wu Lingfeng and said, "I guessed it. You're quite strong, maybe even a bit stronger than me. If you hadn't run into some trouble, you wouldn't have joined us. But we need your strength, and you need a place to stay, so I've kept you here. What? Have your enemies come after you?"

Huo Lei was getting a little nervous by the end, and when Wu Lingfeng heard what Huo Lei said, he couldn't help but smile wryly before saying, "Brother Huo, you're really mistaken. I don't have any enemies. My identity is actually that of a disciple of a sect, the Qingyang Sect. I don't know if you've heard of it?"

Huo Lei was taken aback, then his expression changed. He looked at Wu Lingfeng and said, "You're a disciple of the Qingyang Sect? The Qingyang Sect? Why does it seem so familiar? Right, isn't it the sect that was attacked by the Flame Pirate Gang a while ago?"

Wu Lingfeng nodded and said, "Yes, I am a disciple of Qingyang Sect. Last time, we were caught off guard and attacked by the Flame Pirate Gang. Our sect leader was very angry about this, so he formed a revenge team and selected some disciples from the sect to infiltrate other sects. We suspect that the Flame Pirate Gang has planted spies among the rogue cultivators in various sects. The purpose of the revenge team is to find these spies and see if we can discover who the Flame Pirate Gang is planning to attack next. This way, we can prepare in advance and teach the Flame Pirate Gang a lesson."

Upon hearing Wu Lingfeng's words, Huo Lei's expression changed. He looked at Wu Lingfeng and said, "You're the Qingyang Sect disciple who infiltrated the Qingmu Sect? What? Did you discover the Flame Pirate Gang?"

Wu Lingfeng nodded and said, "I did find the Flame Pirate Gang. You know this guy? He's the owner of the tavern we often go to drink at. I found him on the day we celebrated killing that demonic cultivator. He had the Flame Pirate Gang's mark on him. Lu Yi is also from our sect. He was sent by the sect to support me. Lu Yi has been monitoring that owner these past few days. The reason I'm telling you this today is because tonight, that owner made some unusual moves. He used a communication array to contact someone, which is very likely the Flame Pirate Gang."
