Chapter 771: Chapter 411: The Fox Disciples’ Worries and the Work Their Master Does (Part 2)

Crack!

Coffee Claw held a pair of scissors, crouching in the medicine field, using its fox claw to cut off the tender leaves of the Seven-Aperture Exquisite Pagoda Grass closest to the stem.

"Yip yip yip!"

For this kind of pruning and leaf-cutting ground cultivation work, neither Ghost Eye nor the pipeline could handle it, it could only be done by the foxes’ own paws.

The mentor has already decided to transfer the thousand fox brothers who initially opened the medicine field into the "Medicine Field Groundwork Department," specifically in charge of tasks like pruning, cutting leaves, grafting, and applying treatments.

With its tail wagging while threading through the medicine field, Coffee Claw frowned, its chubby face showed some anxiety.

Pruning the Seven-Aperture Exquisite Pagoda Grass was easy, but other types of Immortal Grass were not so easy to deal with.

"Howl howl howl..."

Would the Medicine Field Groundwork Department have a lot to learn in the future?

Looking at the scissors in its paw, Coffee Claw reached out to touch its chubby head, feeling suddenly a bit scared.

It wasn’t afraid of hardship or difficulty, but it was scared of being too dumb, scared of not being able to learn the complex operations, afraid of slowing down its mentor’s pace, afraid of delaying the development speed of Fox Mountain!

...

Swish!

The construction vehicle stopped at the edge of the medicine field.

"Yip yip yip!"

With a giant banana leaf in its arms, Coffee Shoe jumped off the vehicle.

"Howl howl howl!"

Following behind, Coffee Waist carried a basket full of bottles and jars of medicinal soup.

The two foxes at the edge of the medicine field found the root of Ghost Eye One and fitted the giant banana leaf onto it, letting the banana leaf connect with Ghost Eye’s root.

Immediately after, they poured some potion from the bottles and jars, wielded a shovel to cover the soil, counted from one to five, and saw the banana leaf stand firm, making the two foxes grin broadly.

"Yip yip yip!"

"Howl howl howl!"

This was a brand new facility in the medicine field, first installed in a part of the field and gradually to be installed throughout.

The two foxes took a glance at the banana leaf.

The leaf looked special, with a vast area of several square meters, yet its surface had densely packed yellow-green small squares, resembling pixels.

"Yip yip yip?"

What is this for, exactly?

Neither fox knew.

The mentor was very busy today, hurriedly assigning them the task before rushing off to the Ghost Eye Machine Room.

A chilly wind blew, ruffling the fur on their faces and bodies.

The two foxes instinctively looked into the distance, at the endless expanse of the medicine field.

"Yip yip yip?"

"Howl howl howl?"

Suddenly, they felt a bit scared.

Previously, Fox Mountain had ten thousand acres of medicine field, with one thousand fox brothers each cultivating an acre.

Now, Fox Mountain had thirty thousand acres of medicine field, with less than three thousand brothers cultivating it, and the variety of medicinal plants was about to become more varied!

The current medicine field had become an incredibly vast, incredibly complex system, where incidents could occur at any time. Yesterday, it was said that there was an accident in the water supply system, with water rust causing a pipeline to break, something none of the foxes had heard of before, and they couldn’t possibly handle it.

"Yip?"

"Howl?"

Could they really manage it?

Wasn’t the mentor placing too much trust in them?

The two foxes looked at each other’s fluffy faces, seeing the anxiety in each other’s eyes... Could they really do it? After all, they were just foxes.

...

The morning passed quickly.

In the cafeteria, groups of fiery red foxes sat around small stone tables.

Today’s menu included roasted mushrooms, fried dumplings, and corn porridge!

"Yip yip yip, howl howl howl howl!"

Quanquan Hu, Bai Xingxing, White Moon, and a group of foxes grasped roasted mushrooms, chatting boastfully in fox language about today’s digging work, feeling proud.

"Howl howl yip yip yip!"

Hu Hufeng, Piaopiao Xue, Wind Chasing Claw, and another group of foxes held fried dumplings, discussing which filling tasted the best.

"Yip yip yip, howl howl howl!"

Peach Blossom Eyes, while licking porridge from the corner of its mouth, patted Coffee Claw’s shoulder, advising it not to overthink!

"Yip yip yip, howl howl howl howl!"

At worst, they could just go ask the mentor later about anything they wanted to learn.

Crunching on a dumpling, Coffee Claw nodded vigorously!

It looked up and immediately beamed with excitement, "Mentor! The mentor has entered the cafeteria!"

"Yip yip yip!"

It dashed forward, pouncing toward the mentor, eager to seek guidance from him!

But, in the vast cafeteria, it was not alone... Swish swish swish, whoosh whoosh whoosh, one figure after another dashed toward the mentor, surrounding him entirely.

"Ah? All of you?"

Bai Mo looked at these fox disciples.

Coffee Ear, Coffee Claw, Coffee Shoe, Coffee Waist... all were part of the pioneering team, about to transition into the Medicine Field Groundwork Department.

"What do you want from the mentor?"

Bai Mo picked up Coffee Claw, reaching out to touch Coffee Shoe’s chubby head.

However, the foxes suddenly didn’t quite want to ask anymore.

They suddenly realized that with ten thousand new types of Immortal Grass, each type requiring ground cultivation work, each needing pruning, leaf cutting, peeling, grafting, and propping... there was just too much content.

This wasn’t a problem for one fox or one type of grass.

This was a problem for a thousand foxes and more than ten thousand types of grass.

If the mentor taught them one by one, type by type, even teaching a hundred types a day would take a hundred days!

"Yip..."

"Howl..."

They each lowered their heads, their ears drooping.

"Hmm? Why so unhappy?

"Groundwork will have a rational plan, there will be dedicated tools, and the intensity won’t be too high.

"It will actually be easier than your previous pioneering work.

"In the future, there will be very cool toolkits!"

Bai Mo rubbed Coffee Claw’s chubby head, lifting its chin to look into its eyes.

Then bent down to scoop Coffee Ear into an embrace too.

"Or are you scared, scared the operations are too complex, scared you won’t learn them?"
