1047 A Scam
He Zhiqiu looked at the bare spiritual field as he sighed with disappointment. “This is a precious piece of land, but unfortunately, I can’t plant anything.”
Yu Huang sympathized with He Zhiqiu when she heard this.
Yu Huang asked him, “Sir, has your field never grown grass?”
He Zhiqiu thought about it and said, “Not really. When I first came to Ascension Town, there were actually spiritual herbs on this land. But ever since I sprinkled the bag of seeds that the black-hearted boss gave me on this land, it stopped growing things.”
!!As He Zhiqiu spoke, he slid down from the ridge.
He was wearing military green rubber shoes as he bent down and continuously scattered his spiritual power along the ridge of the field. However, no matter how much spiritual power he poured in, the field didn’t react at all.
Yu Huang observed the spiritual herbs and fields of the other ascenders and discovered that those people were also using their spiritual power to irrigate those herbs. As soon as those herbs received their spiritual power, they grew.
Clearly, using spiritual power to irrigate the spiritual herbs was the right idea. But why was He Zhiqiu’s field barren?
Yu Huang squatted on the field ridge. Seeing He Zhiqiu speaking to his spiritual field, she asked curiously, “Mr. He, is your Bone Nurturing Grass seed still alive?”
He Zhiqiu beckoned at her. “Come and take a look.”
After Yu Huang jumped down from the field ridge and walked to He Zhiqiu’s side, she asked him, “What are you looking at?”
He Zhiqiu carefully threw away the soil with both hands and said mysteriously, “Come and take a look. This seed is still alive!”
Yu Huang bent down and stared at the black seed in the soil with a puzzled gaze.
This seed the size of black sesame was the seed of the Bone Nurturing Grass?
“The black-hearted boss said that as long as the seed of the Bone Nurturing Grass is black, it means that it still has vitality. If the seed of the Bone Nurturing Grass becomes light yellow, it’s an eliminated bad seed.” He Zhiqiu dug a few more pits with his hand. Yu Huang discovered that the seeds inside were all black.
Yu Huang casually picked up a seed and threw it into her mouth to chew.
Seeing this, He Zhiqiu was immediately stupefied.
“Ah Huang! This is a Bone Nurturing Grass! This is a seed of a Rank 9 Spirit Grass! Why did you eat it? Do you know that the Bone Nurturing Grass has long become extinct? Now, only a few are stored in the Spirit Grass warehouse of super large worlds. If you eat one seed, there will be one less Rank 9 Spirit Grass in the world!”
In He Zhiqiu’s eyes, the black sesame seed wasn’t a spiritual herb seed, but a child. It was the kind of seed that could only be obtained by spending a lot of money on test-tube babies.
He cherished it.
Usually, when he observed these seeds, he couldn’t bear to break them or hurt them. Yu Huang, on the other hand, actually ate one!
He Zhiqiu suddenly regretted bringing Yu Huang here.
When he brought Lin Jiansheng to the field yesterday, Lin Jiansheng also frightened him. He said that seeds that couldn’t sprout were trash, so he decided to shovel them all and plant them again.
However, Lin Jiansheng was just saying that. He couldn’t bear to actually shovel them all.
Yu Huang, on the other hand, actually ate them!
This mentor-disciple pair was really problematic.
Unlike He Zhiqiu, who treated the Bone Nurturing Grass seed like a treasure, Yu Huang said aloofly, “Mr. He, what are you panicking for? If this seed can’t sprout, it’s trash. Why plant it?!”
“Your words are exactly the same as your mentor’s. Hurry up and leave!” He Zhiqiu was afraid that Yu Huang would destroy all the seeds. At that time, the losses would be on him.
He was filled with regret.
If he had known that Yu Huang was so unreliable, he wouldn’t have brought her here.
Yu Huang suddenly laughed and said to He Zhiqiu, “Don’t be in a hurry to chase me away. I have a question to ask you, Mr. He.”
Mr. He subconsciously stopped.
He asked dubiously, “What?”
Yu Huang said, “What did the black-hearted boss say when he handed these seeds to you?”
This was ten years ago, so He Zhiqiu couldn’t remember clearly.
He Zhiqiu thought about it seriously and said with a hesitant expression, “The black-hearted boss said that there are Bone Nurturing Grass seeds inside. If I can plant the Bone Nurturing Grass, I’ll be considered to have completed the mission…” With that said, He Zhiqiu asked Yu Huang,” Is there a problem with this? ”
“How is there no problem?” Yu Huang sneered and said, “Having Bone Nurturing Grass seeds inside is completely different from being Bone Nurturing Grass seeds!”
He Zhiqiu was speechless.
He thought about it carefully and immediately felt that Yu Huang’s words made sense. “You mean that there are indeed Bone Nurturing Grass seeds in that bag of seeds, but they’re not all Bone Nurturing Grass seeds.”
Nodding her head, Yu Huang continued, “You also said that the Bone Nurturing Grass is almost extinct. Now, only a few stalks are stored in the spiritual herbs warehouse of super large worlds. Then tell me, if the Bone Nurturing Grass is so precious, aren’t its seeds also very precious? How can they be at ease with giving you such a large bag of such a precious thing?”
“If the seeds die, that will be a huge loss to the spiritual herbs warehouse.”
Hearing this, He Zhiqiu was suddenly speechless.
He sat down on the seed pit and frowned at Yu Huang as he asked in anger, “You think they’re toying with me?”
Yu Huang also sat down beside He Zhiqiu.
Yu Huang dug out a black seed from the soil beside her, then she handed it to He Zhiqiu and said, “Do you want to try it, Mr. He? Perhaps the taste will surprise you.”
He Zhiqiu hesitated for a moment, then he reached out to take it. Like Yu Huang, he threw the seed into his mouth and chewed.
Gradually, He Zhiqiu’s expression changed.
When Yu Huang saw He Zhiqiu’s hesitant expression, she asked him, “Doesn’t it taste like sesame?”
He Zhiqiu was speechless.
“F*ck, this is sesame!” He Zhiqiu was so angry that he spat out the chewed-up seed and scolded angrily, “They tricked me! They gave me a bag of black sesame seeds, but they wanted me to plant a Bone Nurturing Grass. Aren’t they bullying me?!”
“Despicable!”
He Zhiqiu was old, so after discovering that he had been deceived, he was so angry that his chest heaved violently. His face was pale and livid, as if he would die at any moment.
“Sir, don’t be anxious. There’s something fishy about this matter. Listen to me analyze it.” Yu Huang couldn’t watch helplessly as He Zhiqiu was angered to death, so she silently chanted the Purifying Spirit Incantation to help He Zhiqiu calm down.
With Yu Huang’s help, He Zhiqiu gradually regained his composure.
After calming down, He Zhiqiu asked Yu Huang, “Little girl, what else did you discover?”
Yu Huang stared at the bare ground in front of her and said, “These black sesame seeds haven’t rotted after ten years, but they haven’t sprouted either, so there must be something controlling them. I guess that there is indeed a Bone Nurturing Grass seed in your field. As for where it is hidden, we still have to find it out slowly. However, what I can’t figure out is why they lied to you.”
What was it about He Zhiqiu that was worthy of their scheme?
He Zhiqiu couldn’t figure it out either.
He said, “I’m not a powerful person. Back then, among the Beast Tamers who ascended from the Central Pagoda with me, there were countless experts who were even more powerful than me. However, the Cang Lang Continent gave me a pass back then, so I thought I was a big shot.”
However, after spending ten years in the medicinal field, He Zhiqiu’s ambition had been reduced to nothing.
Yu Huang suddenly thought of what He Zhiqiu had said to Lin Jiansheng that day. She suddenly turned around and asked He Zhiqiu, “Mr. He, you said back then that after your beloved wife passed away, you successfully revived a herb that was on the verge of extinction and even let it bloom and bear fruit. What’s the name of that herb?”
He Zhiqiu subconsciously replied, “It’s called the Fortune Grass. Although this Fortune Grass is rare, there are still many Fortune Grass in the Hongyan Continent. However, among the million Fortune Grass, only one has a chance of evolving into a Fortune Tree and producing a Fortune Fruit. And on the Hongyan Continent, it has been a thousand years since a Fortune Grass evolved into a Fortune Tree and produced a Fortune Fruit. Back then, I successfully planted the Fortune Tree and obtained the Fortune Fruit. It even caused a commotion on the continent and I was interviewed by the media a few times.”
He Zhiqiu felt proud whenever he thought about it.
