Natural God's Gift

#42 - Baizhi's bad idea

Mountain Master Ziyun purchased a large quantity of Primal Force food from Xuanyu, and also took four God-given Strawberries soaked in honey. The heaviest items were two jackfruits, one carried by Mountain Master Torch and one by Mountain Master Green.

After the transaction was completed, Mountain Master Ziyun and the others bid farewell and left: "We still have to make a trip to Huzhang, Banxia, and Cang'er, so we won't stay here any longer. You continue to be busy."

Mountain Master Green: "Baizhi, Siyue, are you leaving or not?"

Baizhi and Siyue had eaten three or four large strawberries in a row, their bellies bulging. They were lying there sprawled out, and only when they heard Mountain Master Green calling them did they struggle to turn over.

"I'm done for," Baizhi thought, feeling ominous. It had originally planned to sneak away, but who knew the strawberries would be so delicious that it had forgotten.

It hid behind Siyue, its eight small eyes peering at Xuanyu, cautiously following Siyue's footsteps.

Xuanyu felt that this stupid spider Baizhi was hopeless. Siyue was in its third instar, with a leg span of only a few centimeters, while it was in its fifth instar, with a leg span of more than twenty centimeters. How could Siyue's small body block it?

Xuanyu glared at it: "Where do you think you're going?"

"Hehe," Baizhi chuckled foolishly: "Xuanyu, my elder, I'm seeing Mountain Master Ziyun and the others off."

"Hehe, do they need you to see them off? Stay here obediently and pick strawberries for me, or be careful I'll hang you up and beat you."

"Oh," Baizhi said dejectedly.

Xuanyu waved a claw at Siyue: "Siyue, you can go."

"Ah?" Baizhi was shocked and desperately clung to Siyue: "Siyue, my good friend, don't go! Don't leave me alone here, Xuanyu will beat me to death!"

Siyue: "..."

It looked at Baizhi, who was begging bitterly, and helplessly sent out a mental message: "Mountain Master Ziyun, let Baizhi and I stay here and work for Xuanyu."

"Then we're leaving." The few spiders in the Ziyun merchant team glanced at the two little spiders with pity and left gracefully.

"You come with me," Xuanyu didn't treat the two spiders as outsiders and directly led them to work.

The two spiders followed it to a strawberry field. Xuanyu threw them a specially made No. 3 spider silk bag, raised a claw and pointed to the strawberry plants inside, saying: "You pick all the strawberries inside and throw them into the spider silk bag. I'll carry them over to feed the little flame spiders later."

Seeing that the area Xuanyu pointed to was over ten thousand square meters, the two little spiders were dumbfounded: "Ah? When will we finish picking so many?"

"Hmph," Xuanyu said smugly: "Today I'll tell you, nothing is free. Hurry up and work, or I'll whip you with spider silk threads."

"Slave owner," Baizhi muttered indignantly, and reluctantly started picking strawberries with Siyue.

The two little spiders were too small, they could only pick one or two strawberries at a time and hug them, then run between the spider silk bag and the strawberry plants on their eight short legs.

"Don't be lazy, remember to fill the spider silk bag." Xuanyu only glanced at the two spiders symbolically, not expecting them to really do anything, and started to busy itself with its own affairs.

It had to pick all the flowers and fruits of all the strawberries during this time, shovel all the plants, and then select good seeds for breeding and replant new strawberries, so that the probability of birthing a God-given seed would be higher. The task was still very heavy.

The two little spiders hummed and moved the strawberries. Seeing Xuanyu leave, they were not very serious, moving and playing at the same time.

Baizhi turned its body and looked around. Seeing that there were no spiders around, it put down the strawberry: "Siyue, we ate so much just now, don't rush to move things, let's take a break first."

Siyue: "? ? ?" We just started picking, right?

It kindly reminded: "Xuanyu is still very close to here, if it finds out you're slacking, it will really hang you up and beat you."

Baizhi felt that what Siyue said made sense, and immediately crawled up and hugged a strawberry, pretending to move it.

Siyue: "Xuanyu planted too many strawberries, right? How many little flame spiders will eat so many strawberries?"

Hearing Siyue say this, Baizhi explained: "It planted these strawberries not for eating. Theoretically speaking, under large-scale planting conditions, there is a very small probability of randomly birthing a God-given seed. It wants to have another strawberry God-given seed."

"It can be like this?" Siyue was shocked, this was something not recorded in the inherited memories.

Baizhi: "What's so good about strawberries? The yield is low and they are not easy to transport, and they can't be sold for a good price.

When I advance to become an intermediate warrior and manage my own territory, I will plant Baizhi, which is easy to transport and much better than strawberries.

What do you want to plant, Siyue?"

Siyue: "..."

"I like clover, I want to plant clover, clover is beautiful."

Baizhi: "What's the use of clover? The output of Primal Force food it produces each year is pitifully low. I heard that the price of good top-quality plant seeds and poor inferior plant seeds differs by thousands of times each year.

Last time, Mountain Master Huzhang also said that the total price of the fruits that God-given clover can sell each year is not as high as the value of the fruits of ordinary Sea Soul Fir life seeds. What are you doing planting so much clover?"

Siyue put a claw in its mouth, listening to Baizhi's nagging: "Is that so? The yield is a bit low, but I like it so much."

Baizhi said angrily: "What's the use of liking it? Evolving to the Mountain Master level, or even the Lord level, is the most important thing. If you don't have resources, how can you evolve?

Why don't you plant Baizhi with me in the future!"

Siyue bit its claw, full of innocence: "But Baizhi's yield is not very high either, and I already have three God-given seeds as life seeds, so evolution shouldn't be a big problem, right?"

Baizhi: "..."

It was heart-wrenching, having a God-given seed as a life seed is good. Baizhi closed its mouth in depression, it suddenly didn't want to say anything.

The two little spiders picked strawberries for a while, and Baizhi suddenly lowered its mental message and asked: "Do you know when Mountain Master Ziyun will set off to travel as a merchant?"

Siyue: "It should be in the next few days, what's wrong?"

Baizhi suggested: "How about we sneak into their merchant team and travel with them?"

"Huh?" Siyue was startled by Baizhi's idea.

Siyue: "We are so small, Mountain Master Huzhang won't let us go out with the merchant team. If we get caught, we will really be hung up and beaten."

Baizhi: "That's why I said sneak into the merchant team. So what if we are small? Aren't there also small warriors of the other five Flame Spider tribes who are about the same size as us who go out to travel as merchants to gain experience?"

It tempted: "Anyway, we have nothing to do in the territory. Didn't Hei Nuo and the others say that there are all kinds of insects in the Myriad Races Continent, and it's very fun? Let's go and broaden our horizons too.

Moreover, we can search for God-given seeds in the wild, isn't that much better than being scolded every day in the territory?"

Siyue was a little tempted, but also a little hesitant: "But what about our life seeds?"

Baizhi said plausibly: "Aren't your life seeds being taken care of by Lord Qingfeng and Mountain Master Huzhang? You won't manage the territory anyway, so staying in the territory is useless.

On the contrary, if we can find a God-given seed outside, we will make a fortune."

Siyue was tempted. After all, it was also a small warrior and also liked to play: "Then how do we sneak into the merchant team? Mountain Master Ziyun is a smart spider, it's not easy to deceive."

Baizhi turned its small body and, seeing that there were no spiders around, said cautiously: "Let's work first, and then we'll think of a way."
