2630 Chapter 2630-elder inspection
The disciple in charge of the mulberry garden was called Huo Zhi. After Mu Wu was injured, he was sent to the Mulberry Garden.
The Mulberry Garden was originally the best job. Since the Snow Jade Silkworm was the treasure of Tianji Peak, the disciples in charge of the Mulberry Garden would get some extra resources from the sect. Moreover, the specific work was done by the odd-job workers. The disciples in charge were just supervisors, so it was very easy.
However, it was different now!
Recently, these snow jade silkworms had been inexplicably irritated. The higher-ups of Tianji Peak had asked Beast Tamers to check on them, but they couldn’t find the reason. After all, Beast Tamers couldn’t control adult demon insects, therefore, they didn’t know why these snow jade silkworms were so irritated.
What was more depressing was that no odd-job workers were willing to come to work. Therefore, Huo Zhi had been moving these snow jade silkworms around on his own for the past few days. When he moved them around, he had to be 120% careful to avoid being hurt by the venom of the snow jade silkworms.
Unfortunately, he was still attacked by a snow jade silkworm two days ago. Fortunately, he had set up a spiritual energy barrier in advance, so he wasn’t injured. Furious, Huo Zhi killed the snow jade silkworm with one palm strike.
Huo Zhi knew that he had caused trouble!
These snow jade silkworms were the treasures of Tianji Peak. The elders would come to check the number and condition of the snow jade silkworms on a regular basis. If one of them was found missing, he would be punished.
Killing a snow jade silkworm would not only cost him a year’s worth of resources, but he would also have to spend at least three months in meditation.
After much thought, he finally came up with a solution. Therefore, he posted the mission on the Bulletin Board of the General Affairs Department. He paid for the 300 contribution points himself, not the official contribution points of Tianji Peak.
Huo Zhi’s plan was very effective. Those three idiots didn’t know anything. When the elder came to check on them the next day, he would push the blame onto the three of them and clear his name.
The next morning, when Yun Chujiu and the other two were about to move the snow jade silkworms out of the silkworm room, Huo Zhi came in and stopped them.
“Today is the day of the regular inspection of the elders in the peak. Don’t move these snow jade silkworms outside for now. Wait for the elder to check them before moving them out.”
Yun chujiu and the other two nodded. They went out to get some fresh golden silk mulberry leaves and placed them in the silkworm room.
Huo Zhi looked on coldly from the side and sneered in his heart. They were really three idiots! When he heard that Yun Chujiu was very smart during the test, he was still a little worried. He was afraid that Yun Chujiu would see through his intentions, so he left in a hurry yesterday.
Now it seemed that those people were just exaggerating. She was just a little girl. How powerful could she be? !
After a while, someone called for the door outside the Mulberry Garden. Huo Zhi brought Yun chujiu and the other two out to welcome them.
There were three elders standing outside the door. Huo Zhi quickly bowed. “Disciple Huo Zhi greets elder Jiang, elder Ding, and elder Wan.”
Yun Chujiu and the other two followed behind Huo Zhi and bowed.
The three elders nodded and then looked at Yun Chujiu and the other two. “Aren’t they the odd-job workers in the peak?”
“The three of them accepted the task given by the disciple at the Odd-job office, so they came to raise the snow jade silkworm,”Huo Zhi answered respectfully.
Elder Wan frowned. “What nonsense! They don’t have any experience in raising the snow jade silkworm, what if something goes wrong? ! Aren’t there a lot of odd-job workers in our peak ? Is there no one willing to come ? If it’s really not possible, increase the treatment.”
Huo Zhi nodded repeatedly in agreement. “Disciple will observe them for a few days first. If it’s not possible, disciple will think of a way to replace the odd-job workers on our peak.”
