1064 We’re All Country Bumpkins (2)
He Zhiqiu thanked Si Cheng and returned to the town with Yu Huang.
After finding the new boss, He Zhiqiu asked him for a Bone Nurturing Grass.
The new owner was surprisingly easygoing. He said, “Your assessment mission is to plant the Bone Nurturing Grass,
so according to the rules, you should have obtained a Bone Nurturing Grass seed. Wait a moment, I’ll go get it for
you now.”
The plant base was very spacious. There were many display shelves inside. On the shelves, there were neat boxes
filled with all kinds of precious spirit herb seeds.
Bone Nurturing Grass was already extinct, and its seeds were also very precious, so they were treasured on the
highest floor of the last row of display shelves.
The owner flew up to the top of the display rack and carefully pulled out a wooden box. Then, he carried the box
towards He Zhiqiu and the others.
When He Zhiqiu saw this scene, he couldn’t help but recall the past ten years ago when the black-hearted owner
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcasually took out a bag of black sesame seeds from the display shelf and threw it to him.
He could only blame himself for being stupid. Why didn’t he notice anything at that time? Could the seeds of the
Bone Nurturing Grass be randomly stored in a cloth bag?
The new owner opened the wooden box and solemnly took out a seed that looked like a black sesame seed.
When He Zhiqiu saw the black sesame, his expression instantly became extremely ugly. “You’re still planning to fool
me with black sesame seeds?”
The new owner froze for a moment before he realized that He Zhiqiu had misunderstood.
“Mr. He, the seeds of the Bone Nurturing Grass are indeed very similar to the seeds of the black sesame seeds, but
their scents are completely different.” The owner handed the seed to He Zhiqiu and said, “The seeds of the Bone
Nurturing Grass actually have the scent of death. If you don’t believe me, you can smell them.”
He Zhiqiu leaned closer and took a sniff. As expected, he smelled a scent of death that made his hair stand on end.
He Zhiqiu’s expression softened slightly. Then, he glanced into the box and saw that there were more than ten
grains at the bottom. He said, “Give me a few more.”
The owner smiled politely, but he rejected him firmly. “Mr. He, there are only 11 Bone Nurturing Grass seeds left in
the entire Cang Lang Continent. We can’t hand it to you without permission.”
He Zhiqiu thought about it seriously, then he raised a condition. “Let’s make a deal. If I can successfully plant this
seed, give me the other seeds. I’m willing to help you plant them for free. But after all the Bone Nurturing Grass
sprout, I only need to keep two. I’ll give the rest to you guys.”
The owner hesitated.
In fact, in the beginning, there were a total of 100 Bone Nurturing Grass seeds preserved in the Cang Lang
Continent. Later, the Pharmacist Association handed 88 of them to the most outstanding herbalists to cultivate new
Bone Nurturing Grass. Unsurprisingly, they all failed.
From then on, the Pharmacist Association couldn’t bear to waste any more Bone Nurturing Grass seeds.
If He Zhiqiu could really plant the Bone Nurturing Grass and use two Bone Nurturing Grass in exchange for ten Bone
Nurturing Grass, wouldn’t this be a win-win deal?
At the thought of this, the owner relaxed and said with reservations, “If you can really make them sprout, I will fight
for this cooperation opportunity from the association.”
“Okay.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter He Zhiqiu took the seeds and left the base, he said to Yu Huang, “If I can really plant them, I’ll give you one
and give the other to Brother Lin.”
Yu Huang was somewhat shocked when she heard this and asked He Zhiqiu, “Why are you giving one to me?”
He Zhiqiu looked at Yu Huang with a meaningful gaze as he said, “You wouldn’t follow me to the Spirit Grass base to
look at the Bone Nurturing Grass for no reason. You actually need the Bone Nurturing Grass very much, right?” He
Zhiqiu knew the miraculous effect of Bone Nurturing Grass, so he guessed that Yu Huang probably wanted to revive
someone important.
Yu Huang smiled, but didn’t deny He Zhiqiu’s guess. “Then I wish you the best of luck in planting the Bone Nurturing
Grass as soon as possible.”
“I definitely can.”
They were about to get what they wanted, so their sojourn at Ascension Town should come to an end.
They came here from the Time Pavilion, so they had to leave from the Time Pavilion.
Si Cheng stood under the roof of the Time Pavilion and watched them leave. Like a guide, he pointed at the other
end of the grassland and said, “After passing through the space-time barrier at the end of the grassland, you guys
will see the space station of a super Great World. After you show your identity cards, you can board the spaceship
heading to the Cang Lang Continent.”
