Chapter 522 Strawberry
"I always feel like there's nothing to do recently except training and practicing." Su Yunjin took a sip of tea, glanced at Yan Yu calmly, and said with a smile, "I feel like I'm doing nothing and wasting my time."

"Isn't peacetime good?" Yan Yu sneered at the words. "When we were deep in the southern border, we didn't eat, drink, or sleep. All we did was rest and move. It was all fighting. Compared to that, it's better to waste time leisurely every day like now."

"That's true." Su Yunjin smiled softly, "People are really strange. When they are busy, they want to rest, but when they are resting, they want to work."

"Speaking of work, how is your collection of the acquired five elements' essence going?" Yan Yu asked.

"The dew is almost collected." Su Yunjin replied.

In the world of cultivation, this kind of thing depends entirely on the right time and place, and is indeed an extremely troublesome and time-consuming task. Yan Yu's simple dew collection device has made great contributions in this regard, saving countless time.

Su Yunjin would take time out every day to fly back to Jinling on his sword to check on the dew collection situation - most of the dew had to be discarded directly because it was not pure enough, and sometimes he would not get anything for two or three days in a row.

I continued to work hard for several months, accumulating little by little until now, and finally I can see the end.

Click, click, click! There was a sound of footsteps behind me.

Yan Yu and Su Yunjin turned around and saw Zhao Yuanzhen's puppet Ami walking down the stairs, then picked up the fruit salad on the dining table and walked up again with a click.

"Sister Zhao's method of hosting spiritual consciousness is very convenient." Su Yunjin sighed, "Even if the person is not present, he can remotely control the puppet to do more things. It makes me want a puppet too."

"The essence of a puppet is a magic weapon, and it takes a lot of time and energy to master it." Yan Yu quickly reminded him, "If you can master the Southern Dipper Galaxy Secret Art to the point where it looks effortless, I can consider letting you practice it as a supplement, but even if you do, sword control will definitely take priority."

"I'm just joking, Captain." Su Yunjin said with a smile.

I think you're just joking... Although Yun Jin didn't release gravity, Yan Yu suddenly felt nervous, fearing that she would make such an extremely unreasonable request as Ning Ning did, "Captain, we must treat everyone equally!" "I have to have everything she has, too."

Alas, even without releasing gravity, one can still feel heavy. Isn't this a high-level method of gravity? I underestimated you, Yunjin!
"Would you like some fruit salad?" Lin Ning's voice came from the other side of the table. "Hey, why is there one plate missing?"

"Sister Zhao's puppet has been taken down." Su Yunjin replied.

"Really?" Lin Ning didn't ask any more questions. She had already cut the fruit into many portions and came over with the remaining fruit bowl.

The strange thing is that no matter whether Yan Yu is alone with Ning Ning or Yun Jin, the two of them have a lot of topics to talk about, but once the three of them get together, the scope of the conversation will be strangely narrowed to team-related matters, as if there is some unspeakable hidden taboo.

What the hell is going on?
"It seems like strawberries are on the market this month." Yan Yu tried to break this taboo.

"Then I'll buy some next time." Lin Ning immediately said.

Su Yunjin didn't respond, so the topic naturally ended. Yan Yu narrowed his eyes calmly and watched the secretary pick up the teacup and take a sip elegantly.

If Lin Ning wasn't here, Su Yunjin would almost always respond to every conversation, not to mention the easy-to-answer topic of seasonal fruits... So why was he silent?

"Things involving food are Ningning's strong suit, right?" Su Yunjin swallowed her tea and thought to herself, "It would be bad if I could bring up some topics like how to cut and arrange strawberries, and make the captain take notice of her again. I'll just feign indifference."

"But it seems that strawberries can also be grown at home." Yan Yu followed up on Lin Ning's previous topic and said to Su Yunjin, "Cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, and strawberries are all quite easy to grow."

Since the captain was looking at him, Su Yunjin could only smile and say:
"Sure. Although I usually grow flowers, I guess vegetables and fruits are similar."

Lin Ning did not follow up with the topic of "Can you grow XX vegetables?" and looked absent-minded, which made Yan Yu look at her sideways in confusion - You are not interested in the topic of ingredients either?

"Buying vegetables is also my responsibility within the team," Lin Meimei thought to herself. "If Yunjin is asked to grow vegetables, wouldn't that be like taking my job away? If the captain is serious, I'll try to refuse by saying things like 'the ones I grow are too small'." The three of them were silent for a while, and then Yan Yu stood up and said,
"I'm going to watch their training."

As soon as he left, it was as if some kind of ban was lifted and the two girls started chatting.

"Does Yunjin have any plans to grow vegetables and fruits?" Lin Ning asked tentatively.

"It depends on what the captain wants." Yun Jin guessed what she was thinking and said with a smile, "Homegrown vegetables and fruits are enough for one person, but there are six of us on the team, so growing them all ourselves is not practical."

"Indeed." Lin Ning smiled and said, "I'm planning to go buy strawberries. Is Yunjin free to go with me?"

"Now?" Su Yunjin pondered for a moment, then nodded and smiled, "Okay."

--------

Zhao Yuanzhen controlled the puppet and brought the fruit salad back to the room with a smug expression on his face.

The normal method of puppet manipulation is to use spiritual consciousness to remotely connect to the puppet and manipulate it to perform various actions; after completing the spiritual consciousness hosting, there is no need to bother to maintain the connection. It is equivalent to having a strong sense with the magic weapon anytime and anywhere, and the ability of mind transmission is almost like the upgrade from 2G to 3G.

If it was a magical weapon like the White Bone Locking Heart Hammer, where one could simply issue an attack command and leave it alone, the advantage of using a spiritual consciousness would be very limited. However, puppets were extremely complex magical weapons to operate, and using a spiritual consciousness enabled Zhao Yuanzhen to issue more and more intensive commands to the puppet within the same amount of time, greatly increasing the puppet's flexibility.

Now this puppet can not only be used to kill people, but it can even thread a needle, carve patterns on tofu, pick up marbles with chopsticks... Even the most complicated movements can be performed with ease, just like the person himself.

In addition, Zhao Yuanzhen is in an abnormal state now, so he is naturally happy to let the puppet go outside the room to work on his behalf. It can do everything except talking, which is extremely convenient!
After eating some fruit salad, Zhao Yuanzhen suddenly became depressed again.

Why are there no strawberries? Cream strawberries should be in season! This Ningning is so ignorant!

Normally, this would be something he would just sigh and forget about, but now his emotions were so strongly amplified that the more Zhao Yuanzhen thought about it, the more depressed he became. At the same time, he also felt a strong desire to eat cream strawberries. He couldn't suppress it at all and quickly picked up his phone to send a message to Yan Yu:

"Please take care of me! I want to eat strawberries with cream!"

In the training ground under the villa, Yan Yu was watching Chen Lingyun and Xie Ruoxi training.

Today's practice item is dodging. Chen Lingyun urged the Five Ghosts to restrain the enemy and used the Black and White Impermanence as the main attacker. Xie Ruoxi was restricted from using thunder magic and could only rely on the Divine Movement Technique and Cloud Ascending Technique to dodge the attacks.

The training results were clearly unsatisfactory. The pretty loser's control over his true energy was surprisingly poor, and after sprinting like a god, he often didn't have time to stop himself with the Cloud Ascending Technique. Nine times out of ten, he would overshoot, and Yan Yu almost cursed at him.

I was feeling irritated when I suddenly received a message from Zhao Yuanzhen. I was immediately furious and replied:
"I don't have time, handle it yourself!"

I finished typing and was about to send it, but then I remembered that she was in an uncontrollable emotional state and might even kill someone out of anger, so I quickly re-edited the message:

"Tell Ningning she's going to buy groceries."

After sending the message, Yan Yu suddenly sighed.

Why is it that the demon girl is the one with the problem, but I have to take care of her emotions?
