In the Qin Dynasty, people changed the world by brushing entries

Bai Yuan nodded after hearing this.

"You're right."

Then he briefly explained to them the magic of the Peach Blossom Sword.

His description was not detailed, so Ningyan and Jimo Huaxue both felt a little confused and awe-inspiring.

But they didn't dwell on this. Bai Yuan was very satisfied anyway, so they were happy for him.

In the evening, Ningyan and Jimo Huaxue prepared a sumptuous dinner for Bai Yuan as a reward for his hard work in refining equipment for so many days.

Bai Yuan, who hadn't eaten properly for many days, didn't hesitate to eat and drank several bowls of rice in one breath.

After dinner, Bai Yuan, Ning Yan and others sat in the yard, resting quietly under the moonlight.

In this environment, Bai Yuan actually fell asleep!

After Ningyan and Jimo Huaxue found that he had fallen asleep, they looked at each other.

They understood that Bai Yuan was really tired. Normally he would not go to bed so early.

Ningyan walked into the room with a smile, and soon brought a blanket and gently covered Bai Yuan with it.

When Bai Yuan woke up the next day, he found that he had fallen asleep in the yard, and Ning Yan was there with him, sleeping in his arms.

Ningyan may have also noticed Bai Yuan's actions and slowly opened her eyes.

Bai Yuan reached out and gently pinched the tip of her nose.

"Why didn't you wake me up?"

"I saw that you were too tired, so I didn't have the nerve to wake you up."

Hearing this, Bai Yuan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

After washing up and finishing breakfast early, Bai Yuan began to dig a hole in the yard, preparing to plant the magical tree seed given by the system yesterday.

Seeing Bai Yuan digging holes and planting trees there, Ningyan and Jimo Huaxue also came over.

"You want to plant trees? What kind of trees do you want to plant?"

“I don’t know what kind of tree I’ll grow.”

Bai Yuan shook his head slightly. He really didn't know what kind of tree could grow from this thing.

After burying the seeds, Bai Yuan watered them.

Then, something surprising happened to them. A emerald green sprout grew out of the seed that had just been buried. After a while, it was more than ten centimeters tall.

Such a terrifying growth rate was completely beyond their imagination.

Bai Yuan was fine, as he was mentally prepared for this kind of thing, but Ning Yan and the others were completely unable to understand it.

They saw Bai Yuan burying the seeds with their own eyes. He just watered them. How could it be possible for them to grow so fast?

But the surprising thing is yet to come.

The tree's growth rate seems to be somewhat out of control.

When Bai Yuan woke up the next day, he found that it had grown to more than one meter tall.

He had a bad feeling, so he dug the tree out while its roots were not too deep, and then found another place on Taiyi Mountain to transplant it.

Facts have proved that his decision is absolutely correct.

After only three days, the tree had grown to more than ten meters tall, and it took several people to hug it.

Its branches spread out, covering an area of ​​more than ten meters in radius. The only puzzling thing is that this tree has no leaves!

Such a strange tree suddenly appeared in Taiyi Mountain, and soon attracted the attention of Chisongzi and others.

When they discovered that this tree was related to Bai Yuan, they were not surprised.

They also asked Bai Yuan what kind of tree it was. After all, it could grow so tall in such a short time, so they were naturally curious.

Unfortunately, Bai Yuan’s answer has never changed, and he doesn’t know what this tree is.

Although he did not get an answer, Chisongzi was not disappointed. He even sent someone to take care of the tree and record its growth rate every day.

On the fifth day, the tree had grown to thirty meters tall, and its branches were large and complex.

On the tenth day, the tree had grown to a hundred meters high, and its branches covered a large area.

After the tenth day, the tree stopped growing taller and instead expanded its branches. Its lush and complex branches covered an area of ​​hundreds of meters in radius.

Bai Yuan became more and more curious about what species this leafless tree was.

Chapter 143 The Colorful Taiyi Mountain

"Uncle Junior Master! Something happened to that tree!"

That day, Bai Yuan had just put on his clothes with the help of Ning Yan and had not had time to eat breakfast when he saw Xiao Ling running over.

Hearing his words, Bai Yuan raised his eyebrows.

"What happened?"

"That tree was covered with leaves overnight, and the leaves looked a little strange. I can't really explain the details. The head master and the elders have already gone there. Junior uncle, you should go and take a look too!"

Xiao Ling seemed a little anxious. These days, he and several disciples have been taking care of this strange tree, recording its growth every day. After all, this thing looks quite extraordinary, and they are also doing their best.

But who would have thought that just when everyone thought that the tree would not grow leaves, sprouts actually began to appear on the bare branches of the tree.

What's more, the growth speed of the leaves is also incredibly surprising. The tree is covered with leaves overnight.

Bai Yuan did not waste any time and took Ning Yan and Jimo Hua Xue to check the specific condition of the tree.

Before they arrived at the tree, Bai Yuan and others saw the extremely tall tree from afar. Under the sunlight, its leaves emitted colorful light.

Such a wonderful sight made Bai Yuan and the other two even more curious, and they couldn't help but quicken their pace.

As Bai Yuan and others approached the giant tree, they gradually saw clearly what was going on with the leaves on the tree.

The leaves it grows are not soft green leaves, but jade-like in texture and are colorful, and its branches also emit a faint golden light.

At this moment, Bai Yuan thought of a word.

Golden branches and jade leaves!

When they arrived under the tree, they found Chisongzi and others had climbed up the tree and gathered together to observe the jade leaves on the tree.

"This leaf is so strange. It can grow so big overnight. It feels like a piece of soft jade and it even emits fluorescence. It's amazing!"

"I always feel that this jade leaf is more than just glowing!"

"How can a jade leaf that grows from a tree be simple?"

Elders, you speak to me.

At this time, Chisongzi noticed Bai Yuan coming and coughed twice.

"Junior brother, you are finally here. This is the tree you planted. Come and see what is going on."

Bai Yuan nodded, secretly asked the system, and soon got the relevant information about the tree.

【Name】：Papermaking Tree

[Entries]: Jade Leaves (gold), Paper Tree (purple), Rapid Growth (blue)

[Golden Branches and Jade Leaves]: This tree is an aristocrat in the tree world, with golden branches and jade leaves. Its branches are as hard as gold and stone, and difficult to be cut by swords. Its leaves are as precious as gems, and hard to find in the world. It doesn't just look noble. Different colored leaves have different effects. Red leaves nourish people, orange leaves ward off evil spirits, and green leaves can be used to record knowledge, and so on. It's a pity that these jade leaves regenerate very slowly.

[Papermaking Tree]: There was papermaking tree in the world, and then there was paper. As the aristocrat among trees, it was not originally called a papermaking tree, and it did not have the ability to make paper. But humans invented the papermaking technique and cut down trees on a large scale for papermaking, causing great suffering to the tree world. In order to avoid being cut down, it had to evolve the ability to make paper. Every month it grows many special white leaves, which when the leaves fall to the ground, become sheets of fine paper.

[Extremely Fast Growth]: This is a very fast growing tree, it only takes one month from planting to full maturity.

Looking at the information about this paper-making tree, Bai Yuan was a little stunned.

System, you will be fined for using puns!

"How is it? Junior brother, did you see anything?"

Chi Songzi saw the expression on Bai Yuan's face and asked impatiently.

Bai Yuan rubbed his temples, thinking about how to explain to them. After all, this tree was a little too strange.

There are actually trees that help people make paper because they are afraid of being cut down!

Although this tree is strange, Bai Yuan has to admit that it is very useful.

Without mentioning the function of jade leaves for now, its ability to make paper alone is enough to change the times.

Paper is a groundbreaking product. After using bamboo slips for so many years, Bai Yuan actually knows how inconvenient they are. He also wants to explore papermaking technology.

But he knew nothing. He only knew that the main raw materials for papermaking were plants, and he knew nothing about the process steps. It would take too much time and effort to explore from scratch.

In the end, it is likely to be a waste of effort.

So he could only follow the trend of the times and use bamboo slips or expensive cloth.

Now that he had the paper-making tree, he could finally get rid of the heavy bamboo slips.

After preparing his speech in his mind, Bai Yuan introduced the paper-making tree to Chisongzi and others.

Chi Songzi and others were naturally confused after hearing this.

In their impression, paper is a kind of cotton wool or silk residue, which refers to the cotton residue attached to the bleaching vessel when bleaching silk cotton. It is completely different from the paper that Bai Yuan mentioned.

Before they saw the paper that Bai Yuan was talking about, it was hard for them to imagine that this thing could be used to replace bamboo slips and cloth.

Bai Yuan had no choice but to accept this. After all, there were leaves of all colors on the tree except white.

Chisongzi and others could only temporarily suppress their doubts and turn their attention to the colorful jade leaves on the tree. Although there were no white leaves, there were many other leaves.

Bai Yuan said that each color of these leaves has a different effect, which naturally made them extremely curious.

After asking, Chisongzi got Bai Yuan's permission and immediately tried to pick a leaf.

He waved his fingers and the Xue Ji sword he carried with him flew out.

They had tried it before Bai Yuan came, and found out that these leaves were not the kind that could be picked off easily.

A crisp sound was heard, and Chisongzi plucked a red jade leaf that was bigger than his palm.

On the jade leaf, fine lines were clearly visible, and through the surface of the jade, he could even see the red light flowing inside.

A trace of warm power flowed out from the red leaves, making Chi Songzi feel extremely comfortable.

"It's really amazing!"

His face was ruddy and he seemed to be a few years younger. There were even a few strands of black hair among his originally white hair, which shocked the elders.

After experiencing the power of the red jade leaf, Chisongzi and others immediately realized how important this tree was, and it was not enough to just send disciples to take care of it.

He immediately ordered that from that day on, the elders would take turns to look after the tree.

Not only that, the area within a few miles around the tree was designated as the forbidden area of ​​Tianzong.

Disciples are not allowed to approach this place without permission.

Bai Yuan also agreed with his arrangement. After all, this tree was too precious and would definitely attract the covetousness of many forces, so it was necessary to take some protective measures.

After arranging the matter of the tree, Bai Yuan was dragged by Chisongzi to the bamboo forest in the back mountain to find Bei Mingzi and reported the situation to him.

By the time Bai Yuan and the other person came out, the sun had already set.

At this time, they discovered that there was an extremely brilliant light in the distant sky. They were stunned for a moment, and then immediately realized that it was the jade leaf that was glowing.

At this moment, they could already imagine that Taiyi Mountain must be colorful when viewed from a distance.

Chapter 144: A sudden enlightenment, the sword immortal is just around the corner

Looking at the colorful lights in the distance, Chisongzi and Bai Yuan both felt a headache.

During the day, under the sunlight, they did not realize how bright the jade leaf was, but when it got dark, they realized that they had underestimated it.

This light was much brighter than ordinary lights, and the colors were so brilliant that Bai Yuan felt like he had returned to the afterlife.

Chisongzi also realized that they could not hide the existence of this tree and sighed.

Since it cannot be concealed, just let it be!

Anyway, no matter what, this tree can only be used by other Taoist forces. If they want to get their hands on it, they can consider whether they can withstand the wrath of Tianzong.

After saying hello to Bai Yuan, Chisongzi left in a hurry, probably to make some preparations to deal with possible threats.
