Chapter 20: Astonished by the Scenery of the Herb Field
Looking at these vibrant new shoots, my heart was filled with joy. However, just then, I noticed something strange. Some of the shoots seemed to have become unusually bright in color, while others began to twist and deform.
I became suspicious and immediately checked the composition of the nutrient solution, but found nothing unusual. Could it be due to the special properties of this top-grade medicinal herb field? Or are there other unknown factors at play?
Filled with doubt, I decided to observe the changes in these buds more closely. As time passed, their mutations became more and more obvious, and some even grew strange fruits. These fruits emitted a mysterious light, as if they contained some kind of powerful force.
I carefully plucked a fruit, sensing the energy it emanated. This energy was so pure and powerful that it astonished me. Perhaps, this was the true secret of the top-grade medicinal herb field...
I gazed at the fruit in my hand, a surge of impulse welling up within me. I couldn't resist putting it in my mouth, and instantly, a rich, sweet flavor spread throughout my mouth. Then, I felt a warm energy flowing through my body, bringing a sense of complete comfort.
Just then, something unexpected happened. My body began to glow, and the surrounding air began to distort. A mysterious portal slowly appeared, radiating dazzling light from behind it.
I hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to step through that door. When I entered, the sight before me stunned me—a strange world unfolded before me.
This place is filled with exotic flowers and rare herbs, brimming with spiritual energy. I felt as if I were in a fairyland, my heart filled with awe.
Perhaps this is the secret of the top-grade medicinal herb field, a place that holds endless possibilities...
I wandered around, looking here and there, and finally, in a small cave, I saw ancient records about the top-quality medicinal fields and how to utilize these fruits.
With a thought, I returned from that magical place. With another thought, I went back behind that door. I tried it out: I could walk back and forth with the door open, and I could walk back and forth with pasta. But looking at the two little guys outside the door, it seemed like they couldn't get in.
I went back to them and tried to lead them inside, but I sensed that they wouldn't let me in. I put them down and I was able to go in again. It seems that for now, only I am allowed to enter this place. Let's call it the World in the Herb Field.
After settling the two little ones in, I went to the area with the mutated plants and transplanted them one by one to another corner, picking off all the fruits that had grown on them.
As I was about to leave the medicinal herb field, the two little ones stared at the fruits in my hand. I was worried they would get sick from eating them, so I gave one to each of them.
After the two little ones finished eating, they both fell into a deep sleep. I checked them with my spiritual power and found nothing wrong, so I left the herb field to see if the shrimp and fish were cooked. Once I came out, I soaked the cooked shrimp and fish in cold water and waited for them to cool down.
I sat at the table, thinking about everything that had just happened.
What's so special about these fruits? Why do the little ones fall into a deep sleep after eating them?
As I was thinking, I suddenly felt a wave of drowsiness wash over me, as if an invisible hand was tightly gripping my eyelids, preventing them from opening. My vision gradually blurred, and everything around me became hazy.
I tried to struggle, but my body wouldn't obey me, as if suppressed by a powerful force. Finally, I gave up resisting and let myself sink into the endless darkness.
In my dream, I saw a mysterious figure, who seemed to be a wise man with boundless wisdom and knowledge. He told me the true purpose of these fruits and gave me some hints on how to use them.
When I woke up, I found myself lying on the ground, surrounded by fruit that still smelled enticingly sweet.
I decided to follow the guidance in my dream and try to make a special potion from these fruits. After some effort, I successfully extracted the essence from the fruits and added some other ingredients to create a mysterious potion.
After the potion was made, I carefully picked up the bottle and observed the liquid inside, which shimmered with a strange light. It looked like an ordinary potion, but I knew it contained enormous energy.
Next, I need to find a suitable test subject to test the effects of this medicine.
I took a picture of the bottle of medicine for them in the group chat and tagged them, explaining its effects and how powerful it is, saying that just one drop is enough to achieve the desired effect. Since it's a new product I developed, I don't know about the side effects.
A short while later, a string of unfamiliar numbers called. Judging from the voice, it was clear that the unfamiliar number belonged to Ye Dongjun, who must have gotten it from Sikong Feng.
As soon as I answered the phone, I heard the sounds of two people arguing over something. When they heard the call connect, they obediently stopped what they were doing.
Dongjun said in a cute but fierce tone, "Little Lele, you went to the auction with them last time and didn't wait for me. I was so angry! Humph! But since you've been busy lately, I'll let it go this time. Don't do it again! Hehe..." His voice gradually became indistinct, as if he had been interrupted by someone.
Immediately afterwards, a commotion broke out, and a man's voice could be faintly heard: "Give it back to me, that's my phone, Brother Si, don't go too far~" Then, silence fell again on the other end of the phone.
After a while, Sikong's apologetic voice came through: "I'm sorry, that kid saw me about to call you, snatched my phone, memorized your number, and called you directly. I'm really sorry for revealing your phone number without your permission."
I smiled casually and said, "It's okay, we're all friends, don't worry about such a small thing. By the way, what are you planning to do about what I mentioned in the group chat before? Also, most of the plants you gave me have grown well, but a few have mutated, and I'm not sure if they've grown properly."
After I finished speaking, I couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, waiting for Sikong's response.
Sikong seemed a little excited. "We'll drive over now to pick you up so we can talk in person. When you come to the herb field, you can take us in to see what's going on. It's alright, mutations are very rare. I'm already grateful to you."
I agreed to his suggestion and waited at home for them to pick me up. Less than 10 minutes later, I received a call telling me to come downstairs. After I hung up, I realized that the clothes I was wearing after the change were the ones I wore to work, and it felt like I had changed into a tracksuit.
After going downstairs, the back seats of the car seemed to be full of people, so I could only get into the front passenger seat. After fastening my seatbelt, the car shot off like an arrow. The feeling of being pushed back in my seat was amazing. Good cars are indeed fast at starting.
Han Heng was driving, still as aloof as ever, but not so cold, occasionally joining our conversation. Yes, Ye Dongjun and Sikong Feng were sitting in the back. Ye Dongjun was like a chatterbox, the kind who couldn't stop talking once he started. If Sikong Feng hadn't been constantly keeping him in check, he probably wouldn't have stopped talking non-stop.
"This kid kept chattering the whole way; I almost wanted to throw him off!" Han Heng said with a laugh.
"Haha, ignore him. That's just how he is. Once he gets excited, he just keeps going on and on." Sikong Feng shook his head helplessly.
"Stop your back-and-forth, you two. I'm not that annoyed!" Ye Dongjun protested.
"Alright, alright, let's not talk about that anymore. What are we going to do this time?" I asked curiously.
"Hehe, you'll see when we get there, I guarantee it will broaden your horizons!" Ye Dongjun said mysteriously.
My heart was filled with anticipation, wondering where they were taking me. The car sped along, the scenery outside the window constantly changing, and I gradually became immersed in this unknown joy.
We arrived at our destination quickly; it was a huge manor. After Han Heng parked the car, we got out together, and I followed them into the underground passage. When we reached a place where facial recognition was required, Sikong Feng scanned his face, and the door opened.
The moment it opened, I felt a wisp of spiritual energy. Following them through the door and a tunnel, a green expanse came into view.
"Welcome to my family's plant base. Most of the plants here are common ones, and we used the ancient book I gave you before. I've watered them with my own concoction, but it's not as good as yours, and the effect isn't as noticeable." Sikong stretched out his arms, introducing the greenery in front of me.
I carefully observed the plants around me, and a sense of awe welled up within me. Although these plants were ordinary, the vitality they exuded made me feel very comfortable. I walked up to a plant, gently touched its leaves, and felt its life force.
“These plants each have their own characteristics and effects; you can observe them carefully,” Sikong Feng said from the side.
I nodded and began to study the plants seriously. Each plant had a unique shape and color, as if it were a work of art carefully painted by nature. I carefully observed their leaves, flowers, and fruits, trying to understand their growing environment and effects.
During this process, I felt Sikong Feng's love for plants and his trust in me. He was willing to share his research findings with me, allowing me to better understand the mysteries of plants. I was filled with gratitude and also looked forward to this planting base.
We soon arrived at what appeared to be a place for researching and preparing medicines, and we disinfected ourselves before entering.
To explain my purpose for coming here, I took out the bottle of medicine, used a dropper from the lab to draw up a little, and handed it to Sikong Feng. By then, Sikong Feng had already changed into a white coat and put on medical gloves.
Looking at the pile of equipment in front of me, I felt a little dizzy; everything around me was white.
Han Heng seemed to sense my discomfort and used his unique healing spiritual power to infuse me with it. Gradually, I felt less uncomfortable and gave Han Heng a grateful look. Han Heng seemed to understand my gratitude and gently shook his head, saying that we shouldn't disturb Sikong Feng.
Sikong Feng seemed to be conducting various experiments and recording the results.
Ye Dongjun seemed to know that this matter was important, and unlike in the car when he was joking and playing around with us, he quietly poured me a glass of purified water.
After nodding and thanking Ye Dongjun, Ye Dongjun obediently sat to the side and waited quietly with us for the results.
Sikong Feng seemed to have confirmed the function I mentioned. He excitedly walked towards us with a stack of reports in his hand, staring straight at me, which made me a little uneasy.
At this moment, Han Heng stood up and stood in front of me. After Han Heng turned around and helped me up, I saw that Sikong Feng's previous look was gone.
But his body was still trembling with excitement. "Little Lele, you are a genius. My family has studied that ancient book. I have also studied it, but at best it only covers the plants you just saw. But I only gave it to you for a short time, and you have already developed such a good medicine."
Before I could say anything, Sikong Feng called over several men and women dressed in black shirts. Each of them carried a bucket of purified water, and the buckets were of different sizes and seemed to be of different ages.
Sikong Feng turned around again and placed a row of test tubes behind him in front of me, asking me to use a dropper to put a drop of the medicine I had prepared into each one.
Then, the people standing opposite me started opening the caps of the purified water bottles, and another person lined up to receive a test tube. The youngest of them had the largest water buckets. They stood in order of the size of their buckets, poured the reagents from the test tubes into the buckets in front of them, closed the caps, and shook the bottles back and forth.
After shaking it, we unscrewed the caps together and gulped it down. When I came to my senses, I glanced at Sikong Feng.
Sikong Feng understood what I meant. "Little Lele, don't be afraid. These are all our family members. Besides, I just tested the water volume. They will be fine. Don't worry."
After hearing what he said, I felt a little more at ease, but I still kept my eyes fixed on those people.
After a while, perhaps the medicine took effect, the boy who used the least amount of water, meaning the least diluted solution, was followed by the girl with the second least amount. The third, fourth, fifth, and so on, until the last one.
After a while, presumably the effects of the drug wore off, they all picked up their tablets and wrote down their feelings after using it, the effects of the drug, and the duration and duration of its effects. They wrote it down very comprehensively.
Sikong Feng waved goodbye to them one by one. After returning, Sikong Feng clicked on something on the largest computer.
Han Heng held my hand with one hand and tapped Ye Dongjun's head with the other. Ye Dongjun saw that it was Han Heng who tapped him, but he didn't make a sound. He obediently followed behind us to the screen.
Looking at that pile of data, I roughly understood that those people's bodies were still connected to data sensors at all times, probably for better information extraction.
"Sikong Feng, what happened?" I asked, interrupting Sikong Feng who was lost in thought.
"Oh, oh, oh. This potion is excellent. It has restorative effects for cultivators. Although the quantity is small, long-term use can repair old ailments and cleanse the spiritual energy within the body, making it purer. Little Lele, I won't ask for your formula, but could you sell me a few and prepare them yourself? Several of my family's elders have old ailments, and with these potions, they won't have to suffer from pain anymore. Of course, if you don't have that many, selling me one bottle is fine too, one hundred million per bottle, okay?"
"Ahhhh. What? One hundred million? No need, no need, it's just that I only have this one bottle right now." I stood there, rooted to the spot.
"One hundred million it is, not a penny less, otherwise you don't consider me a friend!" Sikong Feng seemed genuinely angry.
Ye Dongjun chuckled and tried to smooth things over, saying, "Second Brother, you'll scare Little Lele like that. Don't be afraid, it's just a mere 100 million. Sikong is very rich; this amount is just a drop in the ocean for him. Besides, your medicine can cure their family's elders, which is worth more than 100 million. I reckon once those old guys are all better, they'll definitely send you a bunch of gold and silver jewelry or a bunch of magical artifacts!"
I calmed down and immediately used the only materials available in the lab to take out the six fruits I had in my pocket, and made three of them into 12 bottles of medicine.
I gave one of the other three to each person, and Ye Dongjun happily twirled around in the lab with the fruit in his hand.
Han Heng's usually cold face first showed confusion, then relief, and finally his handsome lips turned up as if he were saying thank you.
Sikong Feng was so excited that he almost knelt down before me, but Han Heng helped him up and whispered something in his ear.
Sikong Feng calmed down a bit, took the 12 bottles of potion and the fruit, and said, "Little Lele, it's getting late. You have to go to work tomorrow. It's quite far from here, so stay in the guest room first. I'll send someone to take you to work tomorrow and pick you up after get off work. Then we can study the mutated plant you mentioned."
I ended up living in a huge manor that I never even dared to dream of before, and my little cutie rewarded me with a "laid-off coin" right on time that night.
And so I drifted off to sleep, but Sikong Feng and the others were still busy. Sikong Feng arranged for someone to take me to work early the next morning, and also arranged for his trusted confidants to deliver all 12 bottles to his family's elders who had old ailments.
Han Heng, meanwhile, lay on the bed staring blankly at the fruit.
Ye Dongjun was indeed excitedly pacing back and forth in the room, making phone calls to his family.
