Disaster Descends: I Pick Up Trash and Achieve Financial Freedom

Zuo Qingya inexplicably became bound to the system "Little Darling." While others convert trash into various items, she only converts it into rare seeds.

Initially, she planted them o...

Chapter 72 Carnivorous Flower Spirit 7

"I can only expel the bugs from you little by little now, because I'm afraid your bodies won't be able to handle it if I expel them all at once. I'll come over every night to expel them from you once."

Ling Che nodded, "Okay, thank you, you've worked hard."

"You're too kind, Grandpa, no need to thank me." After all, this was her own task—to help these carnivorous flower spirits solve their pest and disease problems.

Every night, Zuo Qingya's task was to cut the skin of the man-eating flower spirits and help them drive away the insects. Time passed quickly, and ten days went by. The black skin on the spirits' bodies had decreased a lot and slowly returned to its normal color. However, there were still a few black spots, which showed that the expulsion was very successful. In a few more days, all the insects on their bodies would be driven away.

Little Qiuqiu has changed completely. The flower on her head has become embedded in her body, turning into a small tattoo. It's no longer a flower headpiece. Little Qiuqiu is very cute and chubby. Zuo Qingya couldn't help but pinch Little Qiuqiu's cheeks. [Wow...so cute! It's so adorable, so irresistible!]

Little Chiu Chiu giggled foolishly, letting Zuo Qingya pinch her.

Xu Yongjie, who had been unable to find the man-eating flower spirit, was furious and overturned everything on the table, leaving the floor in a mess.

"So many days have passed, and we still haven't found that man-eating flower spirit?"

"Yes, Dr. Xu could not be found."

"Then... that's the only way."

"Are you sure, Dr. Xu?"

"OK, hurry up and get it done."

"Okay, I'll get on it right away."

As usual, Zuo Qingya poured Liu Man a glass of water when night fell, and only after Liu Man fell asleep did Zuo Qingya leave the house, using an invisibility talisman.

Just as she was about to reach the forest, she noticed a glimmer of fire in the direction of the forest. Zuo Qingya flew over in confusion to see what was going on. Why would someone set a fire here?

Upon closer inspection, the arsonist looked somewhat familiar. Wasn't this someone from Xu Yongjie's lab? Did they really have the audacity to set a fire just to lure out the man-eating flower spirit? That's utterly depraved.

Xu Yongjie must be obsessed. Is this the method they were talking about before? Thinking about it, yes, there really isn't any other way. After all, the forest is so big, how are we supposed to find it?

When Zuo Qingya arrived, the little chicks all panicked.

"What should we do? Xiaoya's fire is so big, we definitely have to move."

Zuo Qingya nodded, "Hmm...okay!"

Where are we moving to?

"Let's go to another forest!"

"Which forest are we going to? We don't know the way!"

"I'll check for you."

"How's it here?" Zuo Qingya showed Ling Che the location of the search.

"I think this place is fine."

“This is a forest reserve, I think no one would dare to set fire here.”

“There must be arsonists. If you encounter someone like Xu Yongjie, he’ll do anything, no matter where he goes.”

"That's right, once we get there, we shouldn't come out."

"Especially little Chiu Chiu, stop threatening to run away from home."

Little Chirp said sadly, "Okay!"

"Hmm... let's choose this place then!"

"I think that's fine too."

"Let's go here! Besides, this place is even bigger than the forest we live in now."

"I like it here."

"This is still a forest reserve."

The fire spread rapidly, engulfing the entire forest. Sirens blared, and news reports covered the situation. Several people had already died in the fire, especially nearby villagers, whose houses were reduced to charred frames.

"Who set the forest fire?"

Just then, a bunch of pictures appeared online, and the person who posted them was Zuo Qingya.

Luckily, she took the photos back then, otherwise there would have been no evidence, and Xu Yongjie and his group would have escaped legal punishment. These people have no moral bottom line. Just to catch the man-eating flower spirit, they burned down the entire forest.

Zuo Qingya packed up the entire carnivorous flower fairy clan and flew directly to the chosen forest. After dropping them off, she left them there, as it was almost dawn and she needed to go home. Otherwise, Liu Man would worry if she couldn't find her, since she was still Liu Man's child. What if Liu Man called the police if she didn't go back? That would be a huge problem. How would she explain her disappearance?

With the evidence provided by Zuo Qingya, Xu Yongjie and his group were quickly apprehended.

"Don't arrest my dad, please don't!"

"Waaaaah... Daddy."

Zuo Qingya looked at Xu Weizhou, who was crying heartbrokenly, and didn't know how to comfort him, after all, she was the one who provided the evidence.

It wasn't until evening that Zuo Qingya appeared before the carnivorous flower elf clan.

"Xiaoya, you're finally here! We've missed you so much!" Little Chirp pulled Zuo Qingya along, asking her all sorts of questions and even showing her their house.

"Xiaoya, look at the house I built, isn't it beautiful?"

Zuo Qingya looked at the big tree and felt a little sorry for it. What a tragedy! It had been hollowed out. Zuo Qingya had seen the home of Little Chiu Chiu and the others before. How to put it? It was quite amazing, because these man-eating flower elves all lived inside trees. Hollowing out a tree only took less than an hour. It was even more terrifying than insects.

Zuo Qingya nodded. "Yeah, it's pretty good. It would be better if the door were a little taller." Zuo Qingya was still a kid, but it was still a bit cramped inside.

Little Chirp was a little dejected. "Hmm... the tree we chose is too small, that's why you felt a bit cramped, Xiaoya. But Grandpa's tree is bigger, so we can go play at Grandpa's house."

"Oh, I see."

"Xiaoya, shall we go to Grandpa's house to play?"

Zuo Qingya had no objections, "Then let's go!"

When they arrived at Lingche's house, Zuo Qingya nodded, "It is indeed quite big, a bit bigger than Xiaojiujiu's house."

Big Flower and Little Flower also arrived. They had changed and were now almost like humans, except for the tattoos on their faces and their height. They were about the size of a two-month-old baby, and Zuo Qingya's current height was already considered very tall by them.

"Let's begin!" Zuo Qingya started expelling the insects from the bodies of the man-eating flower spirits.

"Let's start with Grandpa!" Zuo Qingya first made a small cut on Ling Che's arm before expelling the worms from his body. Zuo Qingya was now quite skilled at this, and the worms were quickly expelled from Ling Che's body.

"Alright, let's stop here for now. We might need to expel them one or two more times before they're all expelled."

"Thank you so much."

"You're welcome. You've already paid me, so this is what I should do." Even if these carnivorous flower elves hadn't paid her, Zuo Qingya would still have treated them. After all, helping the carnivorous flower elves solve their pest problems was her mission.

After another ten days or so of treatment, Task 2 finally showed the word "completed".

If the task doesn't show as completed soon, she's really going to throw up. After all, looking at those bugs every day is quite disgusting.
