Socially anxious people transmigrate to another world; living in seclusion is too difficult.
Chapter 28 Farming Life
While the conspiracies and schemes of various parties on the island were being carried out in the wrong direction due to Su Yang's appearance, Su Yang was peacefully fast asleep on the second floor of the cabin.
The next morning.
A soft ray of morning light streamed into the room through the window, while the crisp chirping of birds in the forest awakened the slumbering earth.
As Su Yang stepped into the morning light, he arrived at the stream flowing gently within his territory. Breathing in the air that belonged only to his own domain, he stretched and couldn't help but sigh that it all felt like a dream. Nearly three years had passed since he came to this other world, and now he had truly realized his dream of living in seclusion. A self-sufficient life was beckoning him.
After a quick wash, I looked around. I had pots and pans, but I had no food to cook with, nor any farming tools or seeds. How could I cook? I couldn't just keep eating dried meat.
Su Yang was annoyed by his carelessness, but also glad that he had learned from his mistake. After all, it was a kind of encouragement that a college student who had transmigrated without any skills could survive. After thinking it over, Su Yang still set off for Bailu City to buy food.
Based on his experience living in the original world, he knew that there would be some relatively cheap vendors near the city where he could buy things at a lower price. However, Su Yang's expectations were too optimistic. The area outside Bailu City was deserted, with only a few early-arriving explorers on their way. He had no choice but to prepare to enter the city from the south.
Because it was early morning, most of the shops on the third floor of the commercial area were closed, and even the food shops were preparing to open.
"Looks like I arrived too early."
With a sigh, Su Yang could only wait near several vegetable and meat shops.
Once the gates opened, Su Yang immediately went to buy food. Fortunately, there was no one around in the early morning, so Su Yang didn't have to worry about communication. He quickly bought enough food and meat for two days. The vegetables were all common on the island, which was similar to the original world. However, the meat came from relatively docile edible beasts.
After buying the food, Su Yang went to the place to buy vegetable seeds, as introduced by the shop owner. During this time, Su Yang also thought about whether he could buy some farm tools, but then he thought that he had only ever made hoes. If he could successfully make other farm tools, wouldn't that also train his mental strength? So he gave up on the idea.
After buying the seeds, it was already broad daylight, and the commercial district had returned to its bustling and prosperous state. Su Yang hurriedly took the seeds and food and headed back.
After arriving home, Su Yang ate some dried meat to stave off hunger, since it would take nearly an hour to travel from home to Bailu City and back. The sun was already high in the sky. After finishing his meal, he began to sort the seeds.
Su Yang knew what vegetables the vegetable seeds he bought were, such as tomatoes, cabbage, cucumbers, eggplants, green beans, etc. He also bought two kinds of fruit seeds from another world. One was called Xiluo Fruit, which was the fruit of a vine plant similar to a watermelon. The other was called Qiuye Fruit, which was a tree fruit. With the seeds in hand, Su Yang started to make his own farming tools. Although using elemental power would be faster, he still needed to exercise his body.
Based on Su Yang's observations at the market, the technology for using iron in this world should be quite advanced. However, if agricultural tools are made of iron, not only is iron material needed, but also a forging workshop, which is too time-consuming. It would be better to make some stone tools.
Without further ado, Su Yang found some relatively hard stones nearby. He relied entirely on elemental power to shape them, polishing each stone into the shape of the farm tools from his original world. Then he tied them to wooden handles, and a batch of stone farm tools was completed.
Su Yang made a complete set of farm tools, including seven or eight different sizes and types of tools such as stone hoes, stone picks, stone axes, and stone mills, gaining considerable experience in crafting them. Once the tools were complete, Su Yang began digging. He added elemental power to the digging process; otherwise, not only would the speed be slow, but Su Yang's strength wouldn't be able to keep up.
With the aid of elemental power, Su Yang quickly cleared a small plot of land, sorted it according to different vegetables, and planted the seeds. After watering it, Su Yang sat in front of the hut, letting the warm breeze caress his face.
"Consider this a test. If we succeed on the first try, we can be self-sufficient from now on."
Su Yang was thinking to himself when he suddenly realized, "In the original world, in addition to farming, people in rural areas also raise chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, dogs, cattle, and sheep. I wonder if there are similar livestock in this other world. Judging from the meat I bought this morning, it is mostly meat from ferocious beasts. It seems that there are no ordinary livestock on this island."
After thinking it over, Su Yang decided to build a shed for the livestock first. He then set off to the nearby forest to collect materials. With his experience in building houses, building a shed was still easy. Soon, a shed was built, close to the wall, which would make it convenient to expand it in the future.
By the time the shed was finished, it was nearly dusk. Su Yang returned to the hut to cook, simply preparing vegetables and meat before eating a tasteless meal.
"I forgot to buy seasonings..."
Just as Su Yang was regretting his actions, the stationary radar detected a large number of creatures approaching. The three leading lights were followed by a group of lights, and their route was heading towards Su Yang's territory. This startled Su Yang: "Could it be a pack of rabid dogs? There are quite a few of them." But then Su Yang thought, "Hey? That's all money!"
So Su Yang rushed out of the room and went behind the wall to observe the situation.
Soon, dust billowed ahead, creating an apocalyptic scene under the twilight. Three gray-furred, canine-like beasts with small wings on their backs and single horns on their heads charged forward. Behind them followed a pack of ferocious, rabid dogs. Su Yang initially assumed these three beasts were the leaders of the rabid dogs, but upon closer inspection, he noticed numerous wounds on each one, clearly indicating they were the targets of the rabid dogs. Unsure whether these beasts were as ferocious as the rabid dogs, Su Yang hid behind the wall and observed them silently.
Soon, the three ferocious beasts arrived at the wall. Seeing that their path was blocked, they quickly turned around and ran to the side of the wall. A large number of rabid hounds had already surrounded the three beasts. In this desperate situation, the three beasts had no choice but to fight again. The battle was extremely brutal. All three beasts were water elementals and could even unleash elemental power, severely injuring the pack of rabid hounds. However, they were no match for the sheer number of rabid hounds. Soon, they were covered in wounds, and one of the beasts collapsed to the ground.
Su Yang observed for a long time and saw that the eyes of the three ferocious beasts were not as fierce as those of the rabid dogs. Moreover, after witnessing the power of their elemental forces, he believed that he could control them. So he climbed over the wall and launched a violent cyclone that exploded in the center of the pack of rabid dogs. Several smaller cyclones scattered outwards, constantly tearing at the bodies of the rabid dogs. This was a new technique that Su Yang had developed. He controlled the release of the cloud element to coincide with the impact of the cyclone, using the cloud element to control the air element to generate a small cyclone for a secondary attack.
As soon as the attack began, Su Yang activated his fog element. Soon, the fog spread, and under its cover, Su Yang carried the three ferocious beasts back inside the enclosure one by one. The thick fog not only disoriented the rabid hounds but also masked their sense of smell. After some hesitation, they finally retreated.
