Miler, who has a system for giving up
Chapter 17 My God, I'm Rich!
Lei Wujie looked at me with his beautiful eyes, a slight smile playing on his lips, and said, "Long time no see."
I was a little surprised and hesitated for a moment before replying, "Oh...long time no see! Lei Wujie, what are you doing here? Do you know Sikong Feng too?"
The scene was still replaying in my mind, and I asked these questions in a daze.
“Let’s go, let’s sit over there and talk.” Lei Wujie said, pulling my arm and leading me inside. By the time I realized what was happening, we were already at a stool, and Lei Wujie had already pulled it out, waiting for me to sit down.
I slowly sat down, still filled with doubt. At that moment, Lei Wujie picked up the teapot again, gently poured me a cup of tea, and placed the cup in front of me.
I held the teacup in both hands, feeling its warmth, trying to calm myself down.
At that moment, I realized that this encounter with Lei Wujie was not accidental; perhaps it concealed more stories and secrets. However, all I could do was wait quietly and see what would happen next.
"My name is Han Heng. Lei Wujie is my game name; I like thunder. Wujie is my nickname. Sikongfeng is Shikong Changfeng, literally. As for Baili Dongjun, his name is Ye Dongjun. We are from a prominent family and grew up together. I'm a few months older than them, so they call me Big Brother, Little Si the Second, and Dongjun the Little One. You haven't told me your name yet." Han Heng explained to me earnestly, his eyes revealing sincerity and earnestness, as if afraid I might misunderstand or forget any detail.
Just then, a commotion arose outside the door, as if two people were arguing or discussing something important. Immediately afterwards, footsteps approached, the door was pushed open, and two figures appeared in the doorway.
He was Ye Dongjun, his face filled with excitement and anticipation, his eyes darting around, searching for someone or something. "Really? Little Youyou's here? Where? How did you arrange this? Take me to see her!" Ye Dongjun's voice was full of expectation and eagerness as he spoke.
There was also a voice from Sikong Feng, who wasn't very interested: "I didn't know it was Xiao Youyou at first. Later, I ran into her and even wanted to buy what she had. I had someone check the surveillance footage, and it turned out that Brother Wujie saw the photo and that's how I found out. After all, only Brother Wujie had seen Xiao Youyou. I should have known better than to be so cold-hearted back then. I don't know if I scared her."
I listened intently to their conversation, my eyes fixed on the open door. Two figures slowly entered the room, one of whom was none other than Sikong Feng, whom I had seen that day.
Today, he was wearing a brand-new dark blue suit, looking exceptionally energetic. The other person, dressed in a sporty outfit brimming with youthful vitality, walked briskly towards Han Heng, his eyes revealing intense curiosity and enthusiasm.
His eagerness made it seem as if he couldn't wait to learn more about me.
This action instantly transformed the somewhat quiet room into a vibrant and energetic space, while also gradually easing my initial wariness and tension.
I smiled warmly, then slowly stood up, looking at them with friendly and gentle eyes. I gracefully extended my hand to them and said in a soft but firm voice, "My name is Miler, and it's a pleasure to meet you!"
At this moment, Ye Dongjun jumped up excitedly, his eyes sparkling, and said with a happy face, "Just call me Dongjun, and Xiaoyouyou's real name is also very nice. From now on, we'll call you Xiaolele."
After saying that, he quickly grabbed my hand and shook it vigorously, his face beaming with a warm smile.
Seeing this, Sikong Feng scratched his head awkwardly, but finally decided to extend his hand to shake mine, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I really didn't expect you to be Xiao Youyou. You can call me Sikong or Afeng."
Hearing his words, I smiled slightly and shook my head gently to indicate that I didn't care. Then, I looked at him with tender eyes and replied softly, "It's alright, Sikong. Actually, I wasn't scared at all. On the contrary, I should thank you."
Throughout my speech, I maintained a relieved smile, which emanated a warm aura.
"Little Lele, you're a cultivator too? You're probably cultivating, right? Otherwise, why haven't you logged into the game these past few days, and why haven't you replied to our messages in the group?" Ye Dongjun looked at me with a questioning expression, as if waiting for my answer.
I took out my phone and opened the group chat. There were 99+ red dots. I clicked on them and saw a lot of messages. After looking through them, I realized that most of them were Ye Dongjun calling out to me in the group, only to be rebuffed by Sikong Feng.
She touched her forehead sheepishly, "I'm sorry, I just found a job a few days ago, and then my boss gave me a new project. I've been busy with cultivation, work, buying and planting plants. I've been so busy that I haven't had time to check my phone."
Ye Dongjun seemed about to say something again, but Sikong Feng stopped him, asking, "Did you come to see me because there's something wrong with the Spirit Grass?"
When Ye Dongjun heard the words "Spiritual Grass," the face that Sikong Feng was holding down stopped struggling. His eyes widened like copper bells as he stared at me.
I took a deep breath, gathered my thoughts, and slowly said, "I used the ancient book you gave me to prepare a nutrient solution, and then watered the Spirit Grass. At first, I didn't notice anything unusual, but when I checked on it again this morning, I found that it was growing very well. However, when I tried to get closer to it, a strange unease suddenly welled up in my heart. As the Spirit Grass continued to grow and develop, this feeling became stronger and stronger, as if it was emitting a mysterious and dangerous aura. Every time I approached the Spirit Grass, an indescribable tension and unease would surge up from the depths of my heart, and this feeling became more and more obvious."
After hearing this, they exchanged glances, their eyes filled with surprise. One of them couldn't help but speak up, "Brother, have you ever encountered this situation when you were planting before? When I planted them myself, I didn't have this strange feeling unless I used that special liquid. But as long as I used that liquid, the Spirit Grass would grow exceptionally well. However, it might be because I didn't have an accurate grasp of the proportions, so I only experienced the feeling that Xiao Lele described at harvest time."
He frowned, trying to recall past experiences, hoping to find some clues to explain the phenomenon before him. "Perhaps there's something wrong with the composition of the nutrient solution."
Han Heng said thoughtfully, "If the proportions are not right, it may produce unexpected results."
“But I prepared it according to the recipe in the ancient book.” I shook my head in confusion.
"Could the recipe in the ancient book be wrong?" Ye Dongjun interjected.
“That possibility cannot be ruled out,” Sikong Feng calmly analyzed. “Or there may be other factors affecting the growth of the Spirit Grass.”
“We need to observe for a while longer to figure out what’s going on,” Han Heng suggested. “At the same time, we must also pay attention to safety, as this feeling of unease cannot be ignored.”
Han Heng pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Spiritual herbs are extremely rare, and their growing environment is quite special. The reason for this unusual situation is probably not simple. Perhaps we should investigate further and not take it lightly."
Sikong Feng nodded. "I agree with your opinion, elder brother. This matter is of great importance, and we need to proceed with caution. Perhaps we should observe for a while and see if the Spirit Herb will undergo any further changes."
Ye Dongjun said anxiously, "What should we do now? We can't just sit here and wait!"
Sikong Feng reassured him, "Don't worry. I will send people to gather more information about the Spirit Rhyme Grass."
After careful consideration, I put them at ease, and they trusted me. I successfully led them into my top-grade medicinal herb field. They must be from a large family with extensive knowledge. When they saw the three plants on my medicinal herb field, they headed straight for the Spirit Rhyme Grass.
Contrary to expectations, the Spirit Grass did not wither; instead, it grew even stronger. Its leaves displayed unusual patterns and emitted a faint spiritual glow.
"How about I record it with a camera and ask the elders in the family?" Sikong Feng said to Han Heng. Han Heng nodded. Sikong Feng took out a thin stone from his pocket, pointed it at the Spirit Rhyme Grass, and then put it away.
"Little Lele, let's go out first and wait for Xiao Si to ask. This place is very close to his senior who never leaves his house." Han Heng gave me a suggestion, and I used my divine sense to take them out of the herb field.
As soon as Sikong Feng left the herb field, he set off to visit his family's elder.
Dongjun and Hanheng were telling me a lot about the cultivation world that I didn't know. We chatted for about 30 minutes. Just as I was wondering whether I should call Sikong Feng to ask what was going on,
Sikong Feng helped an old man slowly walk in. Perhaps Sikong Feng had told the old man on the way how I brought him into the herb field, because he directly asked me to lead them into the herb field together. With Sikong Feng's help, the old man came to the Spirit Rhyme Grass.
He carefully picked up the Spirit Grass, examining every detail with a solemn expression. His voice was deep and serious, as if he were telling a story of utmost importance: "This is no ordinary Spirit Grass, but a rare mutated variety. Such a mutation is a once-in-a-millennium occurrence. If we can use it properly, it might bring unexpected opportunities."
Then, he noticed two other plants nearby, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.
He turned around, his gaze falling on me, and asked softly, "Hey, aren't these the common cacti and tulips found in the mortal world? Were they also grown using that special formula? They seem to have mutated as well." I nodded silently in affirmation.
His gaze sharpened as he pressed on, "So, what exactly is the purpose of these mutated plants?"
I took a deep breath and slowly replied, "When I first tried using this formula, I chose cacti and tulips as test subjects. Now they have both successfully mutated, but I don't know exactly what their effects are."
After a moment of contemplation, the old man said, "The mutation of this Spirit Grass is truly rare. Perhaps it has some special effects that we haven't discovered yet. Let's observe it for a while longer and see what changes it undergoes."
Han Heng nodded in agreement, "In that case, let's wait patiently and see what surprises this Spirit Herb will bring us."
At this moment, Ye Dongjun asked curiously, "So what should we do with this Spirit Grass now?" The old man smiled and replied, "Don't interfere too much for now, let it grow naturally. At the same time, keep a close eye on its condition, and notify me immediately if there are any abnormalities."
Everyone nodded in agreement, deciding to follow the old man's advice. Afterwards, I led them out of the herb field and began discussing the next steps...
Before leaving, the old man asked Sikong Feng to buy the two mutated plants at the highest price if possible, as he wanted to study them.
Since I had already broken through to the Golden Core stage, I heard their conversation very clearly.
Sikong Feng had his men take the old man home before returning to ask me, "Little Lele, I want to..."
“I can sell it to you. I’ve sent you the card number. Find a container and I’ll take it out for you. I’ll also give you a little bit of my soil. My soil is very expensive, you know.” I interrupted Si, and winked at him playfully.
"Okay, I've already transferred the money to you. Could it be that you're already a Golden Core cultivator? I'm only at the Foundation Establishment stage. No wonder you could hear me." Sikong Feng transferred the money to me without hesitation, and was a little surprised.
After hearing this, Ye Dongjun circled around me, then looked at Han Heng, muttering, "Ah, Little Lele is also at the Golden Core stage, just like Big Brother, he's a monster. I've only just reached Foundation Establishment, while Second Brother Si is already at the peak of Foundation Establishment."
I couldn't help but laugh when I heard this. Ye Dongjun then realized that I could hear him and ran to the next room in embarrassment.
Ding-dong, my phone beeped. I don't usually check my phone, so I didn't take it out to look, but Sikong Feng told me to. I took out my phone, unlocked it, and saw that it was a notification that my bank card had received a deposit.
I was stunned. There were seven zeros, and it even started with a 6! That's 60 million!
I stood up excitedly and looked at Sikong Feng. "Sikong, did you press a few extra zeros? Why did you transfer so much money to me?"
Han Heng glanced at the 6000 million yuan deposit notification on the screen and said something that left me even more confused, "Not much. Even with the soil you gave me, I'm probably still short of yours. I saw your soil, and it's really good!! Xiao Si should be secretly happy."
Sikong Feng gave me a transparent box and hurriedly said, "It's not much. The main thing is that this is the highest limit on your card. I originally wanted to transfer 200 million to you, but it was returned to me. I can only transfer this much for now. If you want anything else, I can find it for you."
I transplanted the two mutated plants and placed them in the transparent box Sikong gave me, adding some soil from my herb garden. I closed the lid, handed it to Sikong Feng, and said, "Thank you so much! I have other things to do, so I'll be going now!"
"Okay, contact me if you need anything." Sikong Feng said goodbye to me with a smile.
Even after I left, I was still thinking about that huge sum of money. It was no small amount; I needed to carefully plan how to use it.
At the same time, Sikong Feng and Han Heng were also discussing the matter of Lingyun Grass and me.
"Brother, do you think Xiao Lele might be a disciple of some reclusive family?" Ye Dongjun guessed.
"It's possible, otherwise how could she have such a magical medicinal herb field and mutated plants?" Han Heng nodded.
"No matter what, we should maintain a good relationship with her. We might even get more benefits in the future," Sikong Feng said.
They decided to keep a closer eye on my movements in the future, hoping to build a deeper friendship with me.
Ye Dongjun hadn't heard me when I left. By the time he composed himself and came out, he realized I was already gone.
