Chapter 860: Chapter 456: Marquis Qing Yue Appears

Hoo...

A wild wind blew over the workshop’s rooftop, causing it to tremble slightly.

At the workshop entrance, beside a giant water tank, four foxes were bustling around.

"Ying ying ying!"

Guo Kezhao hugged a large bundle of fish scale golden circle grass and tossed it into the tank.

"Awoo awoo awoo!"

Night Cat’s Eye held a bamboo pole, pressing the floating clumps of herbs underwater.

"Ying ying ying!"

Mianmian Fruit wielded a wooden paddle, stirring the pool water to get it flowing.

"Awoo awoo awoo!"

Sugar Beans brought another basin of white-striped potatoes, looking up to check the pixel banana leaf for animated instructions, confirming he hadn’t made a mistake.

This is the most basic workshop task: feeding materials!

It’s something to be done every morning moving forward!

More and more herbs were thrown in, and the pool water gradually turned yellow-green, growing cloudy, starting to bubble, beginning to go "glug glug," pouring into the valve leading downstream in the production line.

The feeding work was thus completed.

The four foxes immediately dashed away, rushing into the workshop interior!

There they saw rows of equipment, sections of pipes, and valves, some entwined with lush green vine silk, some pierced with furry roots. Some valves were tied with robust plant stems, some pipes lined with petal membranes planted by the master.

"Ying ying ying!" ℯ𝔴ℯ

"Awoo awoo awoo!"

They scattered around, each inspecting the facilities under their responsibility, checking not only the bronze facilities but also the plant sensors, plant installations, and plant antennas... The master had mentioned that bronze facilities are rather stable, not prone to issues. It’s instead these plants that sometimes need watering, sometimes need fertilizing. That’s part of their duties too.

Running a quick circle, confirming no anomalies were seen.

The pixel banana leaves displayed nothing but fox smiles.

Nut Claw confirmed, all was normal with his part of the production line.

He then swaggered back to his desk... next to the Return Dragon Valve, underneath the pixel banana leaf, a large cattail woven cushion, a soft, warm fox nest!

Lying sprawled out, he grabbed the nearby water bottle, took a sip of honey pomelo water, squinted, stretched lazily.

"Ying ying ying!"

Now, he’s in standby mode.

As long as the banana leaf doesn’t sound an alarm, there’s nothing to do.

Hooru luru luru... was the sound of water flowing through the nearby valve.

Squeak... was the sound of plant roots automatically twisting the valve, adjusting water flow size.

Nut Claw lay in the fox nest, grabbed an orchid lentil from nearby, popped it in his mouth, crunch-crunch-crunched it down, then took another sip of honey pomelo tea, feeling quite blissful.

"Awoo awoo awoo!"

Initially, he thought the work in this workshop would be particularly complex...

Turns out, the work here is indeed complex...

But the most intricate, toughest parts are managed by the plant sensors, plant antennas, Ghost Eye Machine Room, and plant operation facilities.

The four of them in this workshop mainly oversee, handle emergencies, and manage those odd plants.

"Aw..."

Guo Kezhao lay in the fox nest, rubbed his plump belly.

He felt like he knew very little, not exactly an engineer.

But having to manage these chaotic plants truly meant bearing certain responsibilities.

"Aw..."

He furrowed his brow, puckered his lips, internally confirmed... he’s become a leader!

...

Hoo...

The wind howled.

The dormitory hall was pitch black.

The foxes sat in circles, gesturing to each other, speaking in fox language, boasting about their day’s work.

Night Cat’s Eye was surrounded by a group of fellow apprentices, proudly puffing his chest, bragging about things at the Elixir Skin Workshop.

"Ying ying ying, awoo awoo awoo..."

Bragging while thumping his chest!

Saying he’s Night Cat’s Eye, the most reliable in the world, guarding the Elixir Skin Workshop, ensuring nothing goes wrong!

Not far away, Bai Mo sat on the bed, explaining Immortal Grass planting to Peach Blossom Eyes and Star Ear.

"...Therefore, you need to pin the petals up.

"The first petal folds behind the second petal, the second petal then folds behind the third petal, and so on, until at last, you have this effect..."

Bai Mo showed them a treated flower.

"Folding like this, the petals will grow longer and larger and won’t interfere with each other."

The two apprentices seemed thoughtful.

"Ying ying ying!"

"Awoo awoo awoo!"

They nodded then carried the flower away.

Leaving Bai Mo sitting on the bed, holding a tablet, communicating with the Ghost Eye Machine Room, understanding today’s Danpi refining.

While receiving messages from the Ghost Eye Machine Room, occasionally nodding, making some notes on the tablet with quick strokes.

Before long, he understood everything.

"Hmm... Most of this refining process is slow reactions.

"Still have to wait a few more days for the Danpi to fully mature.

"So far, everything seems normal."

Suddenly, two figures clutching thick stacks of Copper Plates ran over from a distance.

"Ying ying ying!"

"Awoo awoo awoo!"

It was the two fox apprentices, Little Fire Cloud and Big Fire Cloud, who were scheduled to accompany the master tonight, having cleaned up the literature and brought it to the master’s side!

The two foxes clunked the Copper Plates down and jumped onto the bed, snuggling in on either side of the master, craning their heads, eyes wide, waiting for the master to pick up the first Copper Plate, then together with the master, directing their gaze to the Copper Plate, reading along with the master.

Though they couldn’t understand, participation was what mattered!

Bai Mo smiled, patting their heads, seeing familiar text on the first piece of literature, once again from Marquis Qing Yue.

[...Today I feel quite good]

[Trial production still failed]
