Chapter 1154

"That amazing?" Lin Cheng had no interest at first, but now he was a little interested.

In nature, there weren't many plants or fruits that could make living beings mentally stimulated, so it was worth a look.

"Go take a look? There's a large bitter-bean grove nearby, enough to feed the current Blue Fox tribe." Pink Fox hopped straight off the ground and climbed onto Lin Cheng's shoulder, then pointed in a direction.

"Right there. Just a short run and we'll arrive."

"Alright then." Lin Cheng stepped off toward the direction Little Red had pointed.

It really wasn't far. After only a few dozen steps, Lin Cheng could already see a large stretch of fruit trees in the distance, completely different from the surrounding trees.

The trunks and branches of these fruit trees were hung with yellow fruits — truly laden with fruit — a vast stretch of trees all bearing yellow fruits.

Judging by the quantity of fruit here, as long as the Blue Foxes stored this food, getting through the winter would be no problem at all. And the following year these trees would bear the same quantity of fruit again, so food was completely sufficient. Occasionally catching a small animal for a treat, life would be no problem at all.

Unfortunately, this place belonged to a magical-beast zone. Even if the Blue Foxes were willing to live here, sometimes magical beasts would inevitably break in suddenly, causing tremendous trouble for the Blue Foxes' lives.

Precisely because of this, the Blue Fox tribe barely managed to live here.

"Try one?" Little Red hopped onto a tree and, fawningly, plucked a yellow fruit for Lin Cheng.

Lin Cheng broke open the yellow fruit. The fruity aroma spread out at once. It smelled not bad. He picked away the white fluffy bits, took out a seed and put it in his mouth. He chewed it, expecting it to be especially bitter, but the bitterness was still within the range humans could accept.

Moreover, he felt the bitterness was very familiar — like eating dark chocolate.

Could this be a cacao tree?

The thought struck him suddenly.

To verify whether these really were cacao beans, Lin Cheng right there on the spot flame-roasted the seeds, then manually ground them into powder, and finally dipped a little to taste.

His eyes lit up.

"Mm, they really are cacao beans!"

At this, Lin Cheng seemed to have thought of another good idea for getting rich.

"What are cacao beans?"

Little Red's face was full of puzzlement — they were just eating a bitter fruit, so why had he suddenly changed like a different person?

"In any case, you've done a great deed!" Lin Cheng affectionately rubbed Little Red's head, his gaze turning to the large stretch of cacao trees before him. "These cacao beans are wonderful stuff for making chocolate!"

"Get your tribesfolk to help me gather every cacao bean here. I also want to dig up a few trees and plant them in the canyon space..."

Now that the Faith God Tree had successfully settled in the canyon space, according to Valkyrie Ailin, within the Faith God Tree's range plants could absolutely be grown, adding vitality to the entire space.

As long as these plants were planted within the Faith God Tree's range, some harsh growing conditions could be ignored — almost anything planted could be kept alive.

Of course, the Faith God Tree's range within the canyon space wasn't large right now either — only about a hundred meters centered on the Faith God Tree.

But this range was expanding little by little every day. There would come a day when it spread across the entire canyon space.

Planting things like cacao trees and tea trees was absolutely no problem.

No sooner said than done. Lin Cheng immediately made a hoe and a shovel on the spot, and together with Miss Qianhui and Valkyrie Ailin prepared to transplant the cacao trees into the canyon space.

There was also a tea tree before, which could now also be transplanted into the canyon space.
