Reborn through an arranged marriage, I awakened the Shennong farming system.
Chapter 95 Discovering clues
When they were almost in the city, Hua Jueming realized that the road closest to the city library was blocked and the car could no longer pass. If he wanted to get to the city library, he would have to take a detour.
"I'm sorry, Madam, it's my fault for not checking the route beforehand," Hua Jueming apologized to Su Bai as he turned around.
Su Bai, sitting in the back seat, waved his hands repeatedly, "This isn't your fault, we can just take another route!" He didn't know this road was going to be closed when he came here a couple of days ago, and the butler, Hua Jueming, knew even less.
“Xiao Su Bai is right! Xiao Jue Ming, you’re not a driver, so it’s normal that you’re not familiar with the road conditions. Don’t take all the blame!” Bai Ze also spoke up at the right time. In his eyes, Hua Jue Ming was already quite capable, much better than him, a demon who had lived for tens of thousands of years. He still couldn’t drive!
Hua Jueming nodded, turned on the navigation, and chose a relatively short route. This time, he would definitely not waste his wife's time again!
After the car arrived at the city library, Su Bai and Bai Ze got out. They were immediately hit by a heat wave. "This late summer heat is really fierce!" It was only eight or nine in the morning, and the temperature was already very high. They wondered how hot it would get in the afternoon.
Bai Ze wanted to look up at the sky, but as soon as he did, the intense sunlight forced him to look down. "I feel like this weather is abnormally hot..." The autumn heat wave can indeed last for a few days, but it is usually unusual for it to be hot from the morning onwards.
Su Bai didn't understand the weather, but he was a little worried about the vegetable seedlings in his greenhouse after hearing Bai Ze say that. Since he started planting, Su Bai had been particularly afraid of encountering strange weather, fearing that God would turn on him and not give him food!
After getting out of the car, Su Bai said to Hua Jueming, "Butler Hua, I'll probably be staying at the library for a long time, so you should go back first! I'll call you before I go home." He was determined to find out everything today. Once the seedlings were ready to be transplanted, he would be busy for a while, as the Su family would also need his help.
"Little Jue Ming, I'll be staying for a long time too. I'll go back with Su Bai then." Bai Ze wasn't sure if he could find any information about the Flood Dragon Clan here, but since he was here, he wouldn't let any clue slip by.
Hua Jueming glanced at Bai Ze and finally nodded in agreement. The brown bear spirit followed his master out. He had originally wanted to stay by Su Bai's side, but now that Bai Ze was there, it didn't matter whether he followed or not.
Bai Ze has lived for tens of thousands of years longer than him, so he can definitely protect Su Bai, as long as he's not so irresponsible.
"Then I'll head back now." Hua Jueming, still worried, reminded Su Bai, "Madam, remember to call me!"
Su Bai nodded obediently, and Bai Ze followed suit, but Hua Jueming didn't think Bai Ze was being obedient at all.
After watching Su Bai and Bai Ze turn and walk into the library, Hua Jueming took out his phone and sent a message to Bai Ze: You must protect Madam. If something happens to Madam, you can guess what Master will do.
Bai Ze had only taken a few steps when he received a message from Hua Jueming, and he was completely devastated!
How much do you distrust him?
Is he that bad?
What happened before was just an accident, an accident, you understand?
Angrily putting his phone away, Bai Ze pretended he hadn't seen the message at all and continued following Su Bai into the library. Although he had lived for a long time, he rarely came to such public places. He usually stayed in his Taoist temple and only came out for walks when he had something to do, but most of the time he went to Hua Gengchen's house.
After entering the library, Su Bai took Bai Ze to the computer area on the first floor and explained in detail how to use the computers to search for the books he wanted.
"Wow! That's amazing!" Bai Ze was truly amazed. He used to search for books one by one on the shelves, never knowing there was such a convenient method. "Shall I give it a try?"
Su Bai stepped aside and smiled, "Okay!"
Bai Ze rubbed his hands together, standing in front of the computer with a slightly excited expression. He knew a little bit about computers, just a little bit!
Click the search box, type 'mythology stories' into the search box with one finger, and then click confirm. A large circle immediately appeared on the computer screen. After the circle spun for a while, books related to mythology stories appeared one by one on the computer screen.
"They've actually all come out!" Bai Ze was excited as he watched the books pop up one by one. This was much faster than him searching for them one by one!
“Each message indicates where the book is located. You just need to remember the number, and then find the book on the corresponding floor, section, and bookshelf according to the number.” Su Bai pointed to the first search result on the computer screen and said, “For example, this book of mythology is located on the second shelf of the tenth row of the L section on the third floor.”
Bai Ze nodded repeatedly, "This thing is so useful!"
It's indeed very useful, saving a lot of time searching for books. Su Bai asked, "Have you mastered it?"
"Mm!" Bai Ze nodded. "I got it!" Su Bai had taught him in such detail, and the matter was so simple. If he still couldn't understand it, then he would be unworthy of his identity as a fairy, even though he only knew the One-Finger Zen technique.
"Shall I go look up something over there?" Su Bai pointed to the computer next to him. Perhaps because they arrived early today, there weren't many people using the computers, only a few here and there, and quite a few computers were empty. "You can look up all the books you want first, then take pictures of them with your phone before going up to look for them, so as not to waste time going back and forth."
"Mmm!" Bai Ze nodded, inwardly lamenting once again how blind Heaven was, how could it have paired such a good person as Xiao Su Bai with that iceberg Hua Gengchen?
"If you encounter anything you don't know how to do, just call me. If I don't answer, I'll contact you as soon as I find out." Since phones need to be silenced in places like libraries, Su Bai couldn't guarantee she'd receive Bai Ze's call immediately.
Listening to Su Bai's nagging, Bai Ze felt a strange mix of amusement and pleasure, as he rarely experienced being nagged like this before.
"I've noted it all down, you can go now!" Bai Ze's voice softened unconsciously, and his gaze towards Su Bai became exceptionally tender. Hua Gengchen must have been incredibly lucky in his past life!
However, Hua Gengchen has lived for tens of thousands of years in this life. How long did he live in his previous life? Did he burn incense every day to pray for this good marriage with Su Bai?
Imagining Hua Gengchen praying to gods and Buddhas, Bai Ze suddenly shuddered, frightened by his own imagination.
Let's focus on our work! The city library truly lives up to its reputation as the largest library in the northern part of the city; its collection is indeed quite impressive. Bai Ze felt that he might actually be able to find some clues from it.
After confirming several times that Bai Ze could really manage on his own, Su Bai found a computer to search for the books he had found last night. He couldn't find some of them, but he did find others. He even found books that were basically similar to those in the same category. Su Bai took pictures of them all, planning to find them and take a look later.
After Su Bai took pictures of all the books, Bai Ze hadn't finished looking for the books he wanted. Su Bai said goodbye and went upstairs to find the books first. However, they agreed to meet at the desk by the window on the third floor later.
Bai Ze dared not lose contact with Su Bai for too long. If anything happened, that treacherous Hua Gengchen would skin him alive.
Having barely escaped death last time, Bai Ze didn't want to put himself in danger again so soon.
Su Bai went to the second floor based on the location found in the search, intending to search from the second floor down the floor, and finally go to the third floor to meet up with Bai Ze.
It took Su Bai some time to find the books. When Su Bai carried more than a dozen books to the third floor to find Bai Ze, there were already dozens of books in front of Bai Ze, one stack on the left and one stack on the right.
"So many!" Su Bai was somewhat surprised; Bai Ze was quite quick!
Bai Ze pointed to the bookshelf behind him and said casually, "I moved all the books on the third shelf of that bookshelf over here." To avoid missing any important information, he wanted to read anything that had even the slightest connection to the Flood Dragon Clan. Anyway, he reads very quickly, so this number of books was nothing to him.
Su Bai followed Bai Ze's gaze and, sure enough, saw that the third shelf of the bookshelf was completely empty. Swallowing hard, Su Bai realized that his understanding of Bai Ze had been completely redefined.
"Have you finished looking for all your books?" Bai Ze asked with concern, casually putting the book he had finished reading on his right, taking one from the stack on his left and placing it in front of him. His eyes swept over the book Su Bai was holding, and sure enough, the book Su Bai was looking for was still related to Shennong.
"That's all for now, I'll read them first." These dozen or so books will keep him occupied for a day. Su Bai's reading ability is only slightly better than that of an average person, and he certainly can't reach Bai Ze's amazing speed.
Bai Ze nodded in agreement. After all, he was a demon, and his spiritual power was many times stronger than that of humans. If he wasn't afraid of scaring others, he would have liked to read ten or so of his books at once.
Su Bai placed the book on the table, pulled out a chair, sat down, and began to read. The unofficial histories and anecdotes were much more interesting than the official histories, and Su Bai became engrossed in them after only a few pages.
Suddenly, Su Bai's gaze fell upon a tale of the strange and supernatural. It stated that Shennong cultivated five grains imbued with spiritual energy, which demons who consumed were greatly benefited from in their cultivation.
This statement is easy to understand; it means that Shennong could grow grains imbued with spiritual energy, which would greatly benefit the cultivation of demons.
Su Bai suppressed his excitement and continued reading. The tale of the strange and supernatural he was reading was about a fairy falling in love with a human; it could be based on reality or it could be fictional.
The story is quite cliché: a scholar rescues an injured white rabbit on his way to take the imperial examination. After the rabbit recovers, it repays his kindness by marrying him, and the two live happily ever after. However, the ending isn't about a demon hunter or a Taoist priest breaking up the couple. Instead, it's about the lack of spiritual energy in the human world. For demons to survive in the human world, they must eat vegetables containing spiritual energy to replenish their spiritual power and maintain their human form.
