– Yundian Upper Realm –
“How are things going in the Cultivation Realm?” Gongyang Jun asked, “The extra spots that Messenger Feng promised us...”
“Our candidates have all gained access to Cultivation Realm, and the Three Saint Gate gave us the spots that should be for the Wuwei Daoist Alliance,” Gongshu Kuo said, “It’s heard that Messenger Feng spoke for us and did a lot of work.”
“Then, we must do our part as well,” Gongyang Jun smiled smugly. “Otherwise, we’ll look bad. If they refuse to submit, we’ll take down some of their cities, conquer the Wuwei Daoist Alliance, and even besiege Jingshi.”
Gongshu Kuo nodded, thinking that it was a good deal for them to deal with the Wuwei Daoist Alliance in exchange for three spots. “You can make the arrangements.”
...
While Ji Wu and his men were searching for the entrance to the Corpse King Hall, Mr. Fang decided to check the so-called Qzone.
Jiang Xiaoyue felt bored killing monster alone in the Legend of Mir 2. Now that she was at a high level and was in no hurry, she decided to watch the TV Series episodes that she had missed.
Fang Qi clicked open Qzone and looked around. It was a vast world, and the place he stood at had green mountains, clear rivers, and vibrant forests. It looked like a perfect living place for a hermit.
He looked around and found that there seemed to be many other options for spawn places, such as a peach forest, a bamboo forest, a pine forest, and even a cliff, an island, a wasteland, and a riverside...
It seems that the players are supposed to grow vegetables here... Grow vegetables...
With so many places to choose from, Mr. Fang scratched his head and couldn’t make up his mind.
“I’ll take this spot!” Mr. Fang chose a place that was beside a mountain and a river with a peach orchard. “I can read the Peach Blossom Spring here! If I put an Eight Trigram Array around here, I can call it the Peach Flower Island!”
[TL Note: The Peach Blossom Spring, or Peach Blossom Spring Story or The Peach Blossom Land, was a fable written by Tao Yuanming in 421 CE about a chance discovery of an ethereal utopia where the people led an ideal existence in harmony with nature, unaware of the outside world for centuries.
The Peach Flower Island is mentioned many times in Jin Yong’s Condor Trilogy, therefore gaining its popularity.]
He had forgotten that he was just a vegetable farmer.
After he made his choice, a farmhouse appeared before him with a field in front of it.
At this moment, five vegetables were growing in the field, and one of them had matured.
In this space, there was a beginner’s manual, teaching the new players how to harvest the matured vegetables.
Fang Qi took a digging spade from the house and dug out the vegetable. He looked at its description and saw its name, White-Golden Spiritual Daikon.
“... What daikon?” Fang Qi froze.
He could sell it to the shop for 272 gold coins, or he could eat it himself and gained some cultivation strength.
Fang Qi carried the big daikon in his arms and thought, So, that’s how things work here?!
This is a big daikon; do you want me to bite into it like this? Fang Qi was puzzled.
He sold it and saw that the price of daikon seed was 125 gold coins. He bought two seeds and planted them, and he entered the house after watering them.
It was a clean wooden house with one big living room, wooden chairs, and a wooden desk.
He opened the windows, and the bright sunshine shone into the room, making the room look warm and cozy. While living here, one would feel like a hermit with no intention of getting involved in worldly conflicts.
Fang Qi took a look and found that the shop had seeds for tea trees. On top of that, Fang Qi saw that he could keep dogs, cats, and fish!
There were even elixir furnaces and elixir recipes!
Players can even make elixirs here?!
Fang Qi continued to browse in the shop and looked at the items as he exclaimed, “I can even buy computers here?!”
Fang Qi was confused. I can enjoy the Legend of Mir 2 on the computers in the real world; what’s the use of computers for me in this place?
He almost dropped onto the ground on his butt when he saw poker cards in the shop!
Hey! We’re here to grow vegetables, no?
Dizzy, Fang Qi walked out of the house and found that the daikon he just planted had matured!
He blinked, thinking that he had seen wrong. Have the White-Golden Spiritual Daikon matured in a few minutes?!
At a closer look, he heaved a sigh of relief when he found that the matured ones had been planted before he came; they were not the ones that he had just planted.
However, it seemed like the White-Golden Spiritual Daikon had a short growing cycle, and he estimated that they would mature in a few hours.
He was alarmed. After all, the White-Golden Spiritual Daikon, which could increase people’s cultivation strength was a spiritual plant, but it could mature in a few hours.
Amazed, Fang Qi harvested the daikon. Then, while looking around the scenic farmland, he nodded in satisfaction.
He studied the other functions of Qzone as well.
On the interface were icons of [Invite Friends into Qzone], [Enter Friends’ Qzone], and [Invite Friends to Watch TV Series], etc.
“Hey! Are you done with the testing?!” Impatient, Su Tianji sent him a message in QQ.
“Done!” Fang Qi stretched and tossed the spade to the side.
[Your friend Mr. Fang invites you to enter his Qzone. Do you accept?] Su Tianji saw the prompt on QQ.
She immediately clicked [Yes].
On the screen appeared a flourishing peach tree forest, and there was a farmhouse in the depth, behind which was a clear winding river. In the fenced field in front of the house, some vegetables were growing.
Looking at Mr. Fang who wore simple cotton clothes, Su Tianji widened her eyes. “You’re really farming?”
Then, she looked down at herself and found that she was also wearing simple cotton clothes like those in the early stages of the Legend of Mir 2!
She thought they were ugly!
Su Tianji who put great importance on her self-image felt sulky.
Mr. Fang took out two big daikon and said, “Do you want to eat them? It’s heard that eating one can extend one year of your life; if you eat them all, you will live as long as the earth and heaven! Super White-Golden Spiritual Daikon!”
“Pooh!” Who would believe his nonsense!
“Forget it!” Fang Qi was indifferent. Each of the daikons is more than 200 gold coins; do you think I want to give one to you?
He immediately sold them in the shop and bought several more seeds.
Seeing Fang Qi loosening the soil and planting the seeds, Su Tianji was at a loss for words. “What’s the use of growing these things?”
“It’s useless. You can leave!” Fang Qi said.
“... Tell me!”
“You can look around the things in the shop,” Fang Qi said in displeasure, “You can try it yourself! Don’t just ask me!”
“You’re the shop owner and have lots of playtime!” Su Tianji said with a cold face, “We can only play eight hours each day.”
While she said that, she opened the shop. “There aren’t many things here. These spiritual plant seeds can only grow in this virtual space...”
“Keep looking.”
Su Tianji rolled up the list and exclaimed in a louder voice, “Dragon Drool Tea Recipe?! Nine-Cycle Heaven Heart Elixir Recipe?! Almighty Elixir Recipe?! Street Fighter 97 Gaming Disk?!”
“Ugh?” Su Tianji froze. “What’s the last item? Why is that here?”
