Chapter 266: Bitten by A Dog
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
"Stop! You must return it!" In Fang Qi's Qzone, Su Tianji showed her chilling and ferocious face, disregarding her usual image!
"I only took a daikon! It's no big deal!"
"I nurtured it for three hours!" Su Tianji was furious. "And you stole stuff from my disciples too! Return them now!"
"They are all gone!" Mr. Fang looked shameless, and then he pointed at the dog, saying, "I spent the money on the dog. You can come and steal my plants and vegetable when they mature."
Do you think that I'm that kind of a person? I... She cussed silently, I can't do anything to this shameless guy right now. I'll mislead him with some gentle words and then steal all of his vegetables tomorrow! I'll see what he can do at that time!
No! It's not stealing! I will just be taking back what's mine! Su Tianji corrected herself in her mind with a cold expression. That's the plan!
I will come tomorrow! She thought in resentment
Then, she asked with a benign expression, "Why did you buy the dog?"
"Why I bought the dog? The dog..." Fang Qi thought for a long while and said, "It's good for the country!"
"What does growing vegetables have to do with the country?!" Su Tianji's face turned dark.
...
At this moment, Dong Qingli and Zhang Wanyu returned to Qzone to collect vegetables after finishing playing the games.
"I lost many oranges!" Zhang Wanyu yelled in alarm.
"Ugh? How come my big daikon is gone?!" Dong Qingli was baffled at the sight of a big hole in the field. "This big daikon was here only a moment ago!"
Elder Fu also discovered something. "It seems that one of the vegetables in my garden is missing?"
"I lost some vegetables too!" Nalan Hongwu looked at his vegetable garden in confusion.
"Where are my spiritual oranges?! Who took them?!" Xue Daolv froze.
Song Qingfeng, Xu Zixin, and the others were stupefied when they returned to their own fields.
Dozens of players who had grown vegetables were confused by the situation.
The players in the Jiuhua City Shop had created a group chat, but it was rarely used. But today, things were different.
Lan Yan, [One of my vegetables went missing! It's very strange! How about you guys?]
[I lost one as well!]
[I lost a big daikon!]
[I lost some spiritual grains!]
[My oranges went missing!]
Someone even sent [@Mr. Fang] in the group.
[Mr. Fang, what is going on?]
[I'll go and get some information!] Nalan Mingxue popped up.
She ran into Fang Qi's Qzone.
Three minutes later, Nalan Mingxue reported, [Don't ask Mr. Fang; he stole the vegetables, and he said that he wouldn't return the stolen goods, even challenging us to steal his vegetables!]
The crowd became indignant!
Su Tianji expressed her mind in the group. [This kid is outrageous. Tomorrow, let's go and empty his garden!]
Lan Yan: [I agree!]
Song Qingfeng: [Me too!]
Xu Zixin: [Count me in!]
Jiang Xiaoyue: [I lost my vegetable too! I'll steal from Boss!]
"..."
Mr. Fang emerged and voice his opinion in the group, [? Can you talk about this in private...]
Su Tianji: [ Who pulled Mr. Fang into the group?]
Nalan Mingxue, Lan Yan, and all the others were at a loss for words.
After all, few people had glanced at the names in the group chat...
At this moment, Mr. Fang was playing with the Akita Inu in his place.
"Come! Smile! Little Akita!"
Snap!
Fang Qi took pictures with a camera.
Thousands of gold coins were enough to buy these small items. More importantly, he found that he could use these pictures to make memes!
Fang Qi took the pictures and then began making memes of the Akita Inu.
It was soon 12 at midnight; Fang Qi closed the shop and went to bed.
...
On the next morning, Su Tianji came into the shop very early with her disciples. Without watching the TV series or eating breakfast, she went online impatiently.
At this moment, Mr. Fang sat down before the computer leisurely with a bowl of instant noodles in his hands.
There was no one in Fang Qi's Qzone. After one night, the vegetables in Fang Qi's fields looked quite tempting. The White-Golden Spiritual Daikon had big leaves, showing that they had matured long ago.
The spiritual peach tree was heavy with fruits, and these fruits were about to drop.
A small yellow dog was napping in the dog house by the side, and its face was on the ground, making it looked dull and silly.
Su Tianji copied Fang Qi and walked into the field with a spade. She muttered with a cold expression, "I'll take back all of your illegally acquired goods!"
After walking into the courtyard, she first dug out a daikon.
Good! She got a daikon.
Then, she began picking peaches.
[Beep!]
The alarm sounded, and she got a warning, [Don't be greedy.]
Su Tianji froze and then thought, No wonder that kid only stole one. I thought he wasn't too greedy, but the truth is that he can't steal more than one!
Forget it. More people will come and steal from him. Since she had reached the limit, and there would be more people coming to steal from the garden, Su Tianji was ready to leave.
Your garden will be empty sooner or later! She glared at the field and was about to leave when a yellow dog blocked her way.
"Bark! Bark! Bark!"
"How come this dog is so ferocious?"
"Ahh!"
...
One minute later, a message appeared in Fang Qi's QQ. [Fang Qi! Come out!]
The message had Su Tianji's beautiful photo as the avatar on the side.
[What?] Fang Qi just finished his instant noodles.
On the other side, Su Tianji was looking at her list of costs in fury!
[Rabies Vaccine: 800!
Medication: 100!]
That was what she got for stealing a daikon that was worth only 300!
What was more infuriating was that she dropped the big daikon in the garden and forgot to pick it up!
[Explain what is going on with your dog ????..." A row of kitchen knives showed Su Tianji's murderous spirit.
[What dog?] After just finishing his breakfast, Fang Qi was baffled.
[Don't play dumb!]
[When are you returning to Jiuhua? I'll invite you to a meal!] Su Tianji's words oozed chills.
"I won't return for the time being, Sis!" Fang Qi added the meme of the Akita Inu smiling that he took yesterday. [So you can't fight me in real life!]
[So, you know that I will fight you! ????]
Suddenly, she paused and asked, [Where did you get that picture?!]
[Do you want it?] Fang Qi typed. [I'll sent you a set of such memes, okay?]
At this moment, bedlam broke loose in the group chat.
Lan Yan, [Who went and stole the shop owner's vegetables? This damn guy has a dog ?!"
Song Qingfeng, [I knew that the shop owner would be on guard. He heard our conversation yesterday; why would you go!]
Lan Yan: [You didn't go?]
Lin Shao: [Bullsh*t! He went! We were bitten first, and he fled ?!]
[Trashy shop owner!]
[I agree! Trashy shop owner!]
[Beep.]
At this moment, the system prompt sounded, and all of them received the message, [Your friend 'Mr. Fang' is inviting you to watch Jade Dynasty. Do you accept?]Chapter 267: The Tourist Group of Jade Dynasty
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
Inviting me to watch Jade Dynasty? Everyone froze. What is he up to?
[Guys! Don't accept!] Su Tianji called out in the group chat. [This kid is too despicable! He not only stole our vegetables but sent a dog to bite us! He wants to gain our forgiveness by showing two episodes of Jade Dynasty? No way!]
[Right!]
[I think so too!]
[Guys! Don't accept!]
[Keep the consensus going!]
[I wasn't bitten by the dog. I've clicked 'Accept' already?...] Song Qingfeng sent an embarrassed emoji.
People didn't know what to say to him for a moment.
Su Tianji said, "You don't have to go even if you accepted (Akita Inu fierce face)!"
Lan Yan suggested, [When the shop owner is watching the TV Series, we'll go and steal his vegetables together! I don't think that dog can bite all of us!]
[Ugh? How come you have this picture?] Jiang Xiaoyue sent the ? Emoji.
Fang Qi soon sent a meme of his Akita Inu being silly while wearing a scarf.
"Oh! So silly!" Jiang Xiaoyue sent the ? Emoji.
Dong Qingli was also interested, [Where do you get these?]
Su Tianji, [Don't change the topic (Akita Inu baring teeth)!]
Fang Qi sent the meme of Akita Inu playing cute with head leaning to one side.
Su Tianji, [(Akita Inu disdainful face)!]
[(Akita Inu leaning his head to one side)]
[(Akita Inu ferocious face)]
"..."
Lan Yan: [Ugh? Isn't it the silly dog in the shop owner's field?]
Dong Qingli: [Why does it look so silly?!]
Lin Shao: [The more you look at it, the sillier it looks!]
Xu Luo: [Can we cook it ??]
[TL Note: LOL, the dog-eating stereotype.]
Obviously, he had been bitten several times by this dog.
"If you right-click on the image, you can save it and send it!" Someone discovered this function.
Soon, the group chat turned into a flood of memes! The original topic was completely forgotten!
Meanwhile, the indignant chatters and the angry members were silently pulled into a newly-established group chat.
Nalan Mingxue: [That kid obviously wants to change the topic! Don't be fooled by him! Who knows his ID in the Legend of Mir 2?]
Su Tianji: [What do you want to do?]
Lin Shao: [You want to sneak-attack him? Count me in!]
Ye Xiaoye: [I like it!]
Su Tianji: [Good idea! Count me in!]
Nalan Hongwu: [I'm out. You guys go ahead.] Anyway, he wasn't bitten by the dog and had no intention of joining in on the revenge.
Standing behind Su Tianji, Xiao Yulv saw the conversation, and he immediately raised his hand, yelling, "I know his ID! I can find his whereabouts for you!"
After all, he had often watched Jiang Xiaoyue play the games.
Su Tianji was pleased. "You finally can do something useful!"
"..."
Soon, a battle of wits and courage against Mr. Fang began.
...
[It seems that you succeeded in changing the topic.] Nalan Mingxue sent him a meme of Akita Inu's disdainful face in a private message.
[Not at all. They are touched by my warmth and sincerity (Akita Inu silly smile)!] Fang Qi replied, [Come and watch the TV Series.]
Nalan Mingxue: [How come your face is thicker than the city wall?]
[TL Note: This is a common saying in China to describe a shameless person.]
[Coming or not?]
[Of course ?!] Of course, she would come! She must get the interest on her revenge first!
Soon, Fang Qi saw that most of them had accepted his invitations.
...
"Sir, what are you doing?" Ruan Ning stood behind Fang Qi with a bowl of instant noodles. "Aren't you going to play the Legend of Mir 2 today?"
"I'll watch the TV Series first!" Fang Qi said, "I'll play the game after that."
"What Series?" Ruan Ning said with a frown, "What's that?"
Fang Qi pointed at a line of words in the middle of the small blackboard. "Jade Dynasty."
Although the players in the new shop couldn't play other games, they could watch the TV Series.
With the Legend of Mir 2 written on the top of the blackboard, many customers were playing this game. Besides, the people in Half City hid good stuff from others, except in the case of the Legend of Mir 2 in which they had been forced to pull teammates into their group to survive.
Many people were addicted to playing the Legend of Mir 2 and couldn't spare a thought for other stuff. Even though they noticed the TV Series, they didn't have time to try them.
That was why only a few people watched Jade Dynasty in the new shop.
Ruan Ning and the others didn't even have enough time to level up with Fang Qi and thus didn't have time to try the new stuff.
"I recommend you girls to watch it when you have time," Fang Qi said. Whatever the customers did in the shop, they would spend money. Therefore, he only talked and gave tips to the girls in his guild.
What's that? You're being vague about it, yet you are also asking us to watch it...Ruan Ning was frustrated.
Qzone had the function of inviting friends over to watch the TV Series together.
Even the people from the distant Morning Star Sea Realm could join the people from Jiuhua City to watch the TV Series together. For a small gathering of a few friends, they could sit in the living room, sharing a pot of good tea. As for a large group like that one that Fang Qi was having today, the situation was...
Fang Qi said, "Welcome to the Death Souls Abyss Tour!"
Mr. Fang took a large group of people to the Death Souls Abyss in the Ancient Ten-Thousand Bat Cave.
In the depths of the dark abyss floated faint whitish light.
When the faint light shone on the floating souls from the underground, some faint-hearted people hid behind others.
In the Death Souls Abyss, they witnessed the deep love between Zhang Xiaofan and Lu Xueqi who were ready to die for each other and the horrifying ancient beasts in the Merciless Ocean.
They also saw the nimble and playful girl in green, Bi Yao.
The audience experienced dangerous adventures and narrow escapes with the characters in the TV Series and were moved by the good sides of human nature and the true feelings revealed in the adventures.
In Blood-Dripping Cave, the audience had their hearts in their throats when they watched Zhang Xiaofan and Bi Yao being trapped inside.
"Where is this place?" While they walked deeper into the cave behind Fang Qi, Dong Qingli and the others clicked their tongues in wonder.
"This place seems to be the headquarters of the so-called Blood Refinery Hall which, is an evil faction." Nalan Hongwu, Xue Daolv, and the others looked around and saw a big stone room. On the left of the room was a statue with a benign face while the statue on the right looked ferocious with a black face and ghost horns.
"Do you think that they will find some treasures here?"
"They found a bell!"
"Look here!" Someone yelled in astonishment.
Meanwhile, Bi Yao also exclaimed in the scene, "Heavenly Book?"
All the people in the audience didn't expect this, and they were pleasantly surprised. They gasped in excitement as they read the words on the wall – First Chapter of the Heavenly Book!
[At the beginning of the world, chaos filled the space with the sun and the moon concealing their light and the heaven and the earth blurring their boundaries. Then, they began to take shape, and the pure and turbid began to separate...]
According to the ancient myths, all the spiritual spells and techniques of the Saint Faction (Demon Faction) came from the Heavenly Book!
In this world, the cultivators used heavenly power while the warriors tried their best to strengthen their bodies. However, the Heavenly Book seemed to cover everything they could imagine!
Mr. Fang: "The Dead Souls Abyss Touring Group has arrived the Heavenly Book Stop. Please read the book at your leisure!"
"..."
Chapter 268: Fled offline and new recruits
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
All the people were elated. While they watched the TV Series, they couldn't get the main character's treasures, but they could learn from his adventures and obtain his techniques!
They had learned the Tai Chi Mystic Pure Dao Technique, and now they had the opportunity to obtain the Heavenly Book!
However, to their regret, the first chapter of Heavenly Book was extremely profound and mysterious since it was the most important chapter of the Heavenly Book!
Special talent and lots of time were needed to understand it!
"This is so deep!" Nalan Hongwu lamented in frustration, feeling dizzy in front of the words which explained the ultimate truth of the world. "We still have many questions about the cultivation methods and spiritual spells in this world. It's difficult for us to understand the words on the stone tablet..."
People like Xue Daolv, Ye Songtao, and Lan Mo sat down cross-legged and began to study the words in concentration and tried to understand in their own ways.
"I think the words aren't describing high-level techniques or cultivation methods." Nalan Mingxue studied each word on the stone tablet. "They explain the special rules and truth."
"This girl got it right." Lan Mo nodded and said, "In short, they are the ultimate truths about the world!"
Hearing Lan Mo's words, everyone looked surprised. "Why would they show this stuff to us?"
They were stunned!
"Are you guys finished?" Fang Qi said, "The touring group is about to leave!"
"Give me another half hour!" Nalan Hongwu said.
"Half an hour is not enough!" Lan Mo said, "One hour! At least one hour!"
"One hour is not enough!" Su Tianji said.
"Let's go now!" Fang Qi looked down on them. "We're watching an episode! Who would pause an episode for one hour?"
He clicked [Start] immediately.
"Don't!"
"Sir! That's not kind! Everyone wants to read the Heavenly Book!" Ye Songtao said, "Give me one moment!"
"I will need a moment too!" Nalan Hongwu yelled immediately, "Pause! It will pass if you don't pause it!"
"Right! We can watch the episode later!" Lan Mo said, "But we must study the Heavenly Book carefully!"
"Take your time. I'll go and read the second chapter of the Heavenly Book," Fang Qi said casually.
"There's a second chapter?" Like a bomb, Fang Qi's words attracted everyone's attention.
"Did that senior give you some tips and important spoilers?" Lan Yan asked suspiciously, "How do you know that there's a second chapter?"
Fang Qi pointed at the first line on the stone tablet, asking, "Do you know these three words?"
"The First Chapter?"
Fang Qi spread his hands and shrugged. "See? Since the first chapter is here, there must be a second chapter, and there might be a third or a fourth chapter! Do you want to read them?"
"Of course!" All of them looked interested. "Go on and let me see what the second chapter of the Heavenly Book looks like!"
"Oh! Can Zhang Xiaofan and Bi Yao escape from this cave?!" After all, the return route is now blocked!
Everyone began to watch the episode in concentration.
"Come and look at this!" After Bi Yao had walked out of the stone room, the audience read a small line of words under the white bones.
[The bell weeps, and all flowers wither; lovers turn haggard with white hair. Love is bitter and torturous, and the sentimental will always be hurt by the heartless.]
...
The audience watched the story of Lady Golden Bell (Jin Ling), Xiaofan and Bi Yao' starvation without food or water, and their search for the way out.
"Zhang Xiaofan and Bi Yao are so pitiable..." Holding a middle-sized stuffed Pikachu which she had bought with one day's income of growing vegetables, Dong Qingli felt like crying while she watched this episode. "They had just read the Heavenly Book, and now they might die here?"
"Nonsense!" A passing Cloud Ocean Faction elder said, "I think they will find a way out!"
In the moment of desperation, the two people found that there was something wrong with the word 'hurt' in the line of 'the sentimental will always be hurt by the heartless.'
The dent in the word fit perfectly with the bell that they had found!
"They found it!" The girls were excited.
The others were also elated.
However, when they walked, they didn't find an exit, but some words looking like those that they had seen in the Heavenly Book in the previous stone room!
"Is it the second chapter of Heavenly Book?" Excited, everyone read the words out loud subconsciously.
[Gloomy souls in the Hell and demons and gods in the heaven, I'll sacrifice my body to you and fall into the Hell forever for my love without regret.]
"Turning a woman's essence blood into a ferocious curse?" They read the words of the curse passage, and they felt terrified.
If this curse was used, the woman would stay in Hell forever. It was so evil!
"Love Curse?" Hearing Bi Yao's explanation, all the viewers were surprised. "This curse is so evil; what does it to do with love?"
"Will anyone use it?" All of them looked doubtful.
At this moment, the area dimmed.
"It ended! Ahh!"
"The two episodes already?! Will Zhang Xiaofan and Bi Yao come out in the end?"
All of the viewers were frustrated.
"Sir! Where's the second chapter of the Heavenly Book?!"
"It might be in the next episode."
The others yelled, "Don't run if you dare!"
"I'll forgive you if you let me beat you!"
"Can't you release 100 episodes altogether?!"
"Can't you put the chapters of the Heavenly Book in one episode?!"
"Em? No! How come some of my vegetables went missing again?!"
"Where's Mr. Fang?"
All of them froze. "He's offline!"
At this moment, Mr. Fang had gotten offline without hesitation. Anyway, no one could come through the internet cable to beat him! Getting offline ended all the trouble for him!
In Half City, with the popularity of Fang Qi's shop and the Legend of Mir 2, no one dared to mess with him.
Besides, the Heaven-Defying Online Games Guild had destroyed Qin Honglin and thus became the biggest force of the 36th block.
Occasionally, some cultivators asked to join the guild. Although Fang Qi hadn't established his guide in the game yet, the guild in the real world now had about 30 members.
Since the guild didn't have a lot of members, sometimes Fang Qi would ask Ruan Ning and other girls or even Zou Mo to manage the guild, which made him look like the leader of the big guilds in his previous world. In short, he didn't have to do any work and almost delegated all of his duties.
Today, Fang Qi was a bit surprised while he looked at the people who wanted to join the guild.
"Guild President, what do you think?" Ruan Ning whispered to him smugly, "I personally recruited three grand cultivators!"
Fang Qi looked at the embarrassed Mo Tianxing, a short and chubby old man who was rubbing his hand bashfully, and an old Daoist in dark Daoist robe.
"Well! Little... Guild President Fang," the short and chubby old man said while rubbing his hands, "Do you still need people in your guild?"
Beside him, Mo Tianxing and the old Daoist looked embarrassed for him and didn't want to be around him.
"Can you take us with you to get good items?"
"Can you give us some of the items that you replaced?"
"Can you tell us some good places to level up? We've been hacked at while we tried to level up..."
Guild President Fang's face twitched at the series of questions and thought,Your last question is what you really want the answer to, right?
Chapter 269: The System Is Facing a Shortage of Materials?
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
[New Task: Personal Teleportation Array
Task Description: This is a teleportation array for personal use activated by essence blood; it will connect the Morning Star Sea Realm and Jiuhua.
Materials Needed (rare materials which can be found locally): Blood Soul Crystal, Spatial Spiritual Rock, and Spiritual Marrow.
Common Materials: Not needed at the moment.
Task Reward: Personal teleportation array (Morning Star Sea Realm—Jiuhua)
Task Instruction: Blood Soul Crystal and Spatial Spiritual Rock are unique in this area, and their locations will be pointed out. You must find Spiritual Marrow yourself.]
Fang Qi looked at the task in surprise. "I never imagined that you face a shortage of materials. You can even reproduce the runewords in Diablo!"
System, [Items in virtual reality are not real; the material shortage and consumption are severe.]
Fang Qi replied, "I can't refute that."
After all, the items that the System recreated were not high-level ones.
[New task: Be Prepared
Task Description: Prepare the materials for the prizes of the first Sand City Master Event.
Sand City Master Prizes: Wilma Cornett, Bone Jade Scepter, Judgement Staff, and Dragon Mark Sword.
Task Description: The weapons are enhanced mimics; the Cornett is a one-to-one exact reproduction.
Materials Needed: Wilma Cornett doesn't need materials; Bone Jade Scepter needs Bones of a Master; Judgement Staff needs Deep Ocean Black Iron; Dragon Mark Sword needs dragon bones.]
Fang Qi stumbled and almost dropped to the ground. "F*ck! Do you think I can get these things?! They sound lofty and grand already!"
System, [Host, please work harder.]
Maybe I should take Sarbark City? And I don't care if I get the prizes or not. Fang Qi thought.
System, [Host, please read the rewards carefully.]
"What?" Fang Qi looked down.
[Task Rewards: Godly Weapon Fragment *1; one day access to Movie and TV Series Cultivation Room; Sword God (Proficiency)
Task Levels: This task is divided into three levels. The Host completes one level whenever one material is obtained. All three rewards could only be claimed when all three requirements are completed. Otherwise, only partial rewards will be distributed.]
Fang Qi replied powerlessly, "You win! I will do the task, okay? But... what is the Movie and TV Series Cultivation Room?"
System, [You can choose characters from a movie or a TV series and practice with them as you did in the Game Cultivation Room.]
Fang Qi said, "It means that I will be killed by the characters countless times, right?"
Anyway, the Movie and TV Series Cultivation Room was not bad. Maybe he would master Sword 23 after dying hundreds of times...
Of course, Mr. Fang was probably overthinking.
After reading the Heavenly Book, Fang Qi had some understandings.
Since he almost mastered the Godly Sword Lightning-Controlling True Spell, he had a deeper understanding of the Heavenly Book than the others.
Maybe I should take some time and go out to practice the sword techniques...
However, he must get the work done first; there was a lot on his plate.
Crossing his arms, Fang Qi replied after thinking for a while, "You can join the guild, and I'll help you level up and even give you items."
"Really?" The short and chubby old man's eyes lit up.
His two friends looked embarrassed.
Fang Qi nodded. "I want to ask you about some items."
"Items?" The others looked at each other and were surprised.
The short and chubby old man said, "Please go ahead."
"Blood Soul Crystal, Spatial Spiritual Rock, and Spiritual Marrow," Fang Qi asked, "Have you heard of them?"
The three of them were silent.
Fang Qi frowned. "Are these things so rare that even you haven't heard of them?"
Mo Tianxing said, "We've heard of Spiritual Marrow which only appears in the core of some extremely huge spiritual crystal mines. They are sold occasionally in the inner city, but it's very precious!"
"How about the others?" They all shook their heads.
Fang Qi continued, "Are Deep Ocean Black Iron and Dragon Bones hard to get?"
The three old men's eyes brightened. "We heard of them; they are treasures but not as precious as the Spiritual Marrow."
"Oh..." Fang Qi stroked his chin. "Can I buy them in the city?"
"Ugh..." The short and chubby old man shook his head. "It's hard to say. Although people say that you can buy anything in Half City if you have money, you must be lucky to get the rare stuff. However, you'll have better luck at obtaining dragon bones in Black Dragon City than in Half City. Besides, if you want, you can hunt a dragon yourself."
"Really..." Fang Qi touched his pocket, reluctant to spend his hard-earned money on prizes for others!
It was better to hunt one!
"Ms. Ruan." Fang Qi looked at Ruan Ning, who was standing by his side, and asked, "Can you help these new members level up on my behalf?"
"..."
"I had an epiphany from the TV series just now, and I must go out and test some of my theories!" With a wave, he already walked out of the shop and said, "As for the privileges of the members, you can explain them to the new people for me!"
"Hey!" Before Ruan Ning could continue, Fang Qi had flown away on the sword.
"Are you the Guild President or not?!" Ruan Ning waved her hands in fury!
However, she had no choice but to smile awkwardly and say, "Should we go... and level up?"
...
After reading the Heavenly Book, Fang Qi had indeed got some inspirations, and he took the opportunity to go out of the city and practice sword techniques. Then, he would try to find the Blood Soul Crystal and Spatial Spiritual Rock that the System mentioned.
Since the System said that these things were in this area, they shouldn't be far away.
This System is not helpful. Fang Qi complained silently, It didn't give me a cultivation room, and I must travel far to practice sword techniques. Besides, I have to find stuff for...
Since Fang Qi was going to practice the Godly Sword Lightning-Controlling True Spell instead of an ordinary sword technique, he couldn't do it in the nearby area. Otherwise, he would ruin the nearby houses.
I will just think of it as a day trip in this world... Mr. Fang thought. After all, he rarely went out after he came into this world, and it felt good to be out once in a while.
He could also practice his flight technique on the sword while he was out, and he might be able to fly to Jiuhua after he reached a really high level with this technique.
Having been in Half City for a while, he was familiar with the rules of this city.
The outer range of Half City was guarded by an array which was like a huge and natural Soul-Confusing Array.
However, Fei didn't spend so much money to establish a force in Half City for nothing. He had received the official token which was not only a symbol but something that he could use to protect himself against the array outside of Half City.
Flying on the sword, Fang Qi found that this area was gloomy even during the daytime, looking as if it would rain at any moment.
However, the moment that he left this sea area, he saw the clear, blue sky with white clouds as if he had come into another world!
Chapter 270: Laotie of Jiuhua City
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
"I heard that the grand masters of Dajin are all playing a game of stealing vegetables... They are enjoying it a lot!"
"They aren't playing anything else!" someone said in surprise, "I saw those guys today, and they have very high levels! How could they have time to play other stuff?"
Another person answered, "The other game doesn't affect the playing of the Legend of Mir 2. You just need to check on it when you have time. It's very easy!"
"So easy?!"
In the Half City Shop, a few players had just finished playing the game and were talking among themselves. Obviously, the news of the new form of entertainment had spread from Jiuhua City to Half City.
"Stealing vegetables?" Huang Shan had just entered the shop and he heard this conversation. "What is that anyway?"
"Yesterday, someone mentioned it in the world channel," Iron Rock Daoist said, "It seems to be talking about this thing called Qzone. Shall we go and have a look of it?"
With the nearby forces and some independent players entering the game, the 1,000 computers were usually fully occupied.
Fortunately, the lines were not long.
After getting online, they didn't enter the Legend of Mir 2. Instead, they opened Qzone.
"Choose your birth place?" They looked around and found that it was easier to understand than the Legend of Mir 2. The process of collecting vegetables, buying seeds, loosening soil, and growing vegetables was super simple.
Looking around at the green fields and plants, Huang Shan exclaimed in appreciation while digging into the soil, "This is really a good place!"
After collecting the vegetables that had matured when they entered their spaces, they bought seeds and planted them.
"That's it?" They found that this was all they needed to do.
"What can these vegetables do for us?" They remembered someone mention that they could sell the vegetables for money to buy other stuff in the shop, or they could eat the vegetables to gain a little cultivation strength.
Immediately, Huang Shan opened the shop and browsed the contents. He was shocked and thought to himself, Thousand-Year-Old Ice Silk Worm Raising Manual?! It's the method of raising Thousand-Year-Old Ice Silk Worm that had disappeared for many years?
"I'll have a look too!" Iron Rock Daoist opened the shop and browsed two pages hurriedly. "Iron Net Flower Growing Manual?! Aren't those flowers almost extinct since the growing method was lost about 3,000 years ago?"
"Blood-Swallowing Worm Raising Manual?!" Zha Gu browsed the contents in astonishment and said in a heavy accent, "With this manual, my venom techniques will enter a higher level!"
"Hahahaha!" After growing their daikon, the three people looked at each other and laughed, "With these things, our Huang Family's strength will gain a tremendous growth!"
Huang Shan stroked his beard. Now that I've planted the White Golden Spiritual Daikon, I'll just wait for them to mature! One daikon can get a little more than two seeds. If this continues, hahaha!
It gave him great pleasure just thinking about it.
"Beep!" At this moment, a message came from the QQ.
"Hongyin from Jiuhua City wants to add you as a friend. Do you accept?"
"Langhua from Jiuhua City wants to add you as a friend. Do you accept?"
"Little Ye from Jiuhua City wants to add you as a friend. Do you accept?"
"..."
How come so many people want to add me as their friends?! Huang Shan froze for a moment and then thought, Maybe they know my Huang Family will prosper and want to gain my friendship?
No... How can they know that? Huang Shan shook his head and drove this thought out of his mind, but he couldn't think of another explanation.
Forget it! I will just click [Agree]!
After clicking many [Agree]s, he turned his head and saw the weird expressions on Iron Rock Daoist and Zha Gu's faces.
"What's wrong with you two?"
Zha Gu said, "Hahahaha! So many people want to add me as their friends! Maybe they know that I'll become a great figure?"
Iron Rock Daoist froze. "Strange! I got these messages too!"
"Guys! What are you so happy about?" At this moment, a guy wearing a black robe stood before them, and he was accompanied by a grey-clothed cultivator.
"Black Demon?!" Huang Shan was a little surprised, knowing that Black Demon had great strength and a powerful force!
He cupped his hands and said, "It's not a secret. Since Brother Black Demon asked, I don't see any reason to hide it from you."
He pointed at the computer screen and said, "We're growing vegetables in Qzone, and it can bring us lots of benefits. The spiritual vegetables can not only increase our strengths but get us money to buy items. There are many precious treasures in the shop, and they are rarely seen in other places!"
"Really?" The two guys glanced at the farmhouse and the fenced field on the screen and said, "Thank you for telling us."
Then, they went online to grow vegetables.
After planting, they received many messages.
"Qingli Moonlight from Jiuhua City wants to add you as a friend. Do you accept?"
"Young Master Song from Jiuhua City wants to add you as a friend. Do you accept?"
"..."
How come so many people want to add me as their friends? Black Demon was confused.
He added them all and even sent them messages.
[What are you doing?] After putting in these words, he felt like they couldn't reflect his style, so he searched for a while in the column of emojis and added ?s.
"That's it."
No one replied except the guy named Young Master Song, [Hello! Laotie from Morning Star Sea Realm (Akita Inu silly face).]
[TL Note: Laotie means friend, and it is commonly used in Northern China.]
"Hahahaha!" Black Demon laughed at the silly meme and thought, This guy looks honest from this picture. Good! I like him!
Still, he didn't understand what 'laotie' meant.
"Boss!" At this moment, the grey-clothed cultivator Wang Jin yelled, "Get into the game! A brother found a secret place in Mengchong Province! The zombies there drop many new skill books!"
"New skills?!" After hearing the news, Black Demon immediately entered the game. "What skills?"
After all, he was still killing monsters with nothing but the Lightning Spell!
"A lot!" Wang Jin glanced at the techniques. "Explosion Flame! Fire Wall! They are all good stuff! I told them to leave some for us!"
"Go! Show me the place!"
– On the other side in Huang Shan's group –
"Brother Huang, someone in Earth City seems to be selling the skill book for Lightning Spell!"
"Skill Book?!" After all, he was still killing monsters with the Fireball Spell!
"How much is it?!" Huang Shan asked immediately.
"50 crystals!" Iron Rock Daoist looked at the screen and said, "And there's also skill books for Soul Fire Rune Note!"
"Let's go and have a look!"
A while later, they exclaimed, "Wow! This Lightning Spell is so cool!"
"This Soul Fire Rune Note is awesome, too!"
Meanwhile, a slim figure sneaked into Huang Shan's vegetable garden in the courtyard. "These damn guys killed me and made me drop items! I'll steal one of your big daikons today first!"
Ye Xiaoye dug into the soil with a spade in a huff.
Soon, a big mature daikon was dug out. Seeing that no one was around, she ran with the daikon in her arms.
– A while later –
"You robbed half a pack of chicken meat from me before, and now I'll take a daikon as a small act of revenge!" Bai Lang walked into the courtyard with a spade and dug out one daikon!
Soon after, another black figure sneaked in...
