Chapter 849 -449: How Many Immortal Grass Will Fox Mountain Waste?

Amidst the “crack, crack, crack” sound, the mud shell was chipped away bit by bit.

This Return Dragon Valve is very precise and fragile. Buried in the soil for millions of years, it’s like a glass doll that can’t withstand any force and must be handled carefully.

The two foxes were fully focused. After scraping away a layer of mud shell, it seemed something wasn’t right.

“Eee, eee, eee?”

White Ears rubbed the last bit of the mud shell with his fox claw and found another layer of a fossil shell beneath it, enveloping the valve!

“Ooo, ooo, ooo?”

The same thing happened on Black Ears’ side!

This thing is like a multi-layered dessert straight out of a canteen, with one layer inside another!

Inside the mud shell, there is a fossil shell, and inside the fossil shell is the valve needed by Fox Mountain!

What to do now?

The hard fossil shell definitely can’t be chipped away, right?

If we chip away the shell, we’ll damage the delicate structure of the valve inside!

The two foxes exchanged a glance, furrowed their brows, and discussed in their mysterious fox language.

“Eee, eee, eee, ooo, ooo!”

“Ooo, ooo, eee, eee!”

They decided to leave the fossil shell for now and clean up other areas!

When it’s lunchtime, they would get from the warehouse a special concoction to dissolve fossils and then deal with this fossil lump!

The two foxes cast a glance at the fossil lump with a “We’ll let you have your moment for another afternoon” attitude, then swaggered off to other places.

…

The morning whisked by hurriedly.

At Fox Mountain’s canteen, the aroma wafted once more.

Today’s lunch was fragrant date cake!

Beside the little stone table, Black Nose proudly boasted while holding a piece of dark red date cake.

“Eee, eee, eee, ooo, ooo, eee, eee!”

This date cake has five different kinds of dates mixed into it!

Some dates were added raw, some cooked, some dried, and some were over-baked…

After a complex procedure, this piece of date cake has achieved a composite texture and taste!

It has the fresh sweetness of raw dates, the dense texture of cooked dates, the richness of dried dates, and the charred fragrance of baked dates!

It can be said that this small piece of date cake embodies the three-year legacy and foundation of Fox Mountain’s canteen!

Once out of Fox Mountain’s canteen, you can’t eat such a quality date cake again!

While gnawing on his date cake, Black Ears leaned on Guo Kezhao’s shoulder and boasted, sharing his morning experience of cleaning machinery.

Guo Kezhao perked up his ears and listened intently.

Occasionally responding.

“Eee, eee, eee?”

“Ooo, ooo?”

After all, in the excavation field, he is a new fox and doesn’t know anything.

…

“There’s definitely some skill here!”

In the canteen’s corner, Bai Mo took a bite of the fragrant and soft date cake, chewing gently, and nodded firmly!

He had never tasted such a good date cake in the present world.

While eating, he browsed the tablet, skimming through documents he hadn’t read carefully in the morning.

He went through several instruction documents, a flowchart, and then landed on a photo of a Copper Plate.

“Huh?”

Again it’s the Marquis’s notes.

[Today, the workshop’s trial production involved three thousand herbal materials, totaling ten thousand kilograms, put inside]

[I, along with the alchemists, shuttled across the production lines and facilities in the workshop]

[The sound of flowing water made us all feel excited!]

[The foundation of the Pill Palace starts here]

[After a cup of tea, someone came to tell me that the condenser pipe was blocked]

[I didn’t want to curse, but damn it, I’ve never seen a condenser pipe so tightly blocked!]

[This single pipe block-up halted the entire production line, with upstream water tanks’ levels rising, threatening to overflow with the concoction]

[Thousands of kilograms of herbal materials are about to be wasted]

[But the damned problem is, how on Earth to unclog this pipe?]

[Just leave a pip so that I can stick my arm in and unclog it!]

Bai Mo seemed to see these words morphing into an angry face of the Marquis, spewing furious saliva!

He rejoiced mischievously, snickering.

“Condenser pipe… seems to have emergency unclogging methods annotated, doesn’t it?”

[Thousands of kilograms of herbal materials indeed went to waste]

[Later, we found the emergency unclogging method notation inside on the first spiral of the condenser entry]

[The idiot who designed this condenser buried the annotation there just to irritate people, not marking it would’ve been better!]

Bai Mo laughed while eating date cake, as if seeing, through the Copper Plate, the furious incompetence of Cyan Moon Pill Palace’s makeshift ancient team from millions of years ago.

This document is severely damaged.

The following are broken records of the issues the Marquis encountered during trial production.

[The Return Dragon Valve has surprisingly formed a thick layer of limescale]

[I’m really disgusted to death]

[That thing’s structure is so fancy, clogged with limescale, how do you repair it?]

[The Green-Purple Umbrella Crystal Solution that flows through that valve…]

Green-Purple Umbrella Crystal Solution?

Bai Mo recalled the name and instantly remembered.

That thing is mixed from several Sequence Seven Herbal Materials and a few Sequence Eight Herbal Materials, quite precious!

But it has a flaw… if the flow slows, it will crystallize!

If using this thing, you must ensure the flow rate, it mustn’t slow down.

“If it passes through the Return Dragon Valve… uh… didn’t the Elixir Skin Workshop add a speed-up turbine in front?”

Bai Mo went to look through his recorded facility blueprints, rummaged for a while, and found that the Marquis’s Elixir Skin Workshop indeed lacked a “speed-up turbine”!

“Uh…”

He couldn’t comment.

“For such a big workshop, to not cover every detail… it’s normal, I guess.”

…

After a meal, every workshop, herb field, and digging site on Fox Mountain resumed its bustling work.

Amid the strong wind, sand flew everywhere.

Black Ears and White Ears, guarding the Return Dragon Valve that wasn’t cleaned in the morning, held a bottle of medicine, dipped a brush gently to apply it onto the fossil.

They dipped sparingly, applying it evenly!

This medicine is expensive!

It must not be wasted!

Based on their extensive experience, just a little brushing is enough to make the fossil bubble, crack, shatter, and peel off!

At this moment, they were grinning, staring at the medicated fossil, only to see no bubbles nor cracks on the fossil.

“Ow?”

Whoosh…

A gust of wind blew, drying the medicated soup on the fossil, leaving only faint brush marks.

Black Ears tapped the fossil lump with a paw, producing a solid “dang dang” sound, as if mocking them.

The two foxes widened their eyes!

“Ow!”

The foxes were very angry, with serious consequences!

They looked at the precious medicated soup in their paws, thinking, since a brush layer couldn’t solve the fossil, then pouring the whole bottle on… definitely wouldn’t work either.

After all, the medicated soup is quite expensive, can’t be wasted frivolously.

The two foxes screwed the cap back on the medicine bottle, yapping “Ow ow”, and dashed to find their master!

…

“This?”

Several foxes gathered their fluffy heads around.

Seeing the master stretch out a hand to feel the fossil lump clogging the valve.

“This… Green-Purple Umbrella Crystal Stone?

“After thousands of years, this stone buried in the earth has slowly grown larger?

“And, it’s clogging the valve even more completely?

“This isn’t an ordinary fossil, our current general-purpose potion can’t dissolve it.

“We need specially prepared potion, coupled with a turbine accelerator to flush it away!

“Preparing this potion requires Purple Fragrant Lotus, Nai Luo Ge Gen…”

The nearby foxes were already dumbfounded.

The ingredients Master mentioned, why are they all Sequence Seven and Sequence Eight Herbal Materials? None are cheap?

“Ying ying! Ow ow ow!”

White Bracelet ran over, holding up a piece of fossil for Master to see!

Over there, a stratified filter was blocked by fossil; can the potion Master wants to prepare possibly clear it too?

Bai Mo took the piece of fossil with a pitted green-scaled surface.

“Uh… this is Silver Carp’s Liquid Fossil, also a very tricky fossil, requiring a specially formulated solution…”

More and more foxes ran over!

White Necklace looked at the ripple-patterned layered fossil in its fox claw, the fox’s face fell.

“Ow?”

So its precision temperature control furnace, clogged by layered fossil, also needs a specially formulated solution?

Black Necklace instinctively turned back to look at its currently being cleaned underground pressure cellar, the walls of which were covered in black-brown granules, they also needed a specially formulated solution?

The foxes looked at each other, fluffy faces drooping.

“Ow?”

How many weird solutions are needed for all these random things?

How many Immortal Grass of Fox Mountain will be wasted?𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ
