“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…
