Chapter 44 Chapter 44 Sunlight Wheat

The morning mist had not yet dissipated when Tang Li brought the seeds home. She stretched and followed Xirang to the planting space.

The little brother and several yellow-named monsters he had just split off from were working diligently in the field on one side, while the robot that was unable to express its intentions occupied one side on the other side. There was a clear distinction between the two.

During this period, because Tang Li planted many strange and exotic plants, the originally neat planting space has turned into a primeval forest.

Walking around a group of unripe crops, Tang Li knelt on one knee, injected supernatural powers into the newly bought seeds, and then carefully planted them in the soil.

It would have ended like this, but before she stood up, she suddenly thought of the introduction in the book.

"Maybe I can try farming the NPC way." Tang Li's fingertips ran across the ridges in front of her, and she frowned, trying to feel the magic in the soil.

Perhaps it was because of her special abilities, perhaps it was because of her racial talent, and of course it was also possible that she instinctively started meditating during the process of feeling. Almost instantly, she felt the fluctuations of earth-attributed magic mentioned in the book.

Following the instructions in the book, I smoothed out the magic in the soil, and the next second, the seeds in the soil felt a sense of joy.

The positive feedback boosted Tang Li's confidence. Soon, she followed the instructions in the book and recited the formula for the growth magic:

“%#*о×…”

Thanks to the great magic book, there is even voice instruction.

Although it was a bit embarrassing to recite it at the beginning, as Tang Li found that she could actually capture the fluctuations of the magic net, it became just fun.

After the incantation and the magic net were in sync, magic power flowed out from her fingertips, like drizzle seeping into the soil. In an instant, tender green sprouts broke through the soil, and the whole crop grew taller and matured at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As the crops blossomed and bore fruit, the blue bar of the Tangli tree dropped visibly. At the same time, the system's prompt sounded again.

System: [Contribute your own understanding of Growth Magic and gain 1 free attribute point]

"If I had learned this magic back then, I wouldn't have to work so hard to buy steamed buns when I started my business." Looking at the crops that grew up in an instant, Tang Li couldn't help but think of the time when she used to get up early and go to bed late every day to plant and harvest wheat.

She already had so many fields that she couldn't finish planting them all, so learning growth magic would just be icing on the cake.

"It's not completely useless. It can be used when you need a certain plant urgently."

After planting all the herbs according to the records in the books and notes and writing down his insights in detail, Tang Li got up and went to the space warehouse.

"It's your turn next," she took out a large bag of seeds from the warehouse, picked up one from it, and carefully soaked the supernatural power into the inside of the seed.

I wonder if the combination of supernatural power improvement and localized cultivation can bring her new surprises.

Tang Li buried the wheat seeds in the soil, which were almost as crystal clear as emeralds. She drew on the magic power with ease and whispered the formula of the growth magic.

"Crackling..." A sound like muscles and bones stretching came from the soil. Then, Tang Li's blue bar dropped uncontrollably, and threads of magic power gathered in the soil.

Along with the shining sunlight, a bunch of golden wheat swaying in the fields makes people think of the sun.

System: [You have cultivated a new variety! ]

System: [You have obtained 1 piece of high-quality Sunlight Wheat.]

Sunlight wheat? Tang Li looked up at the sky. Was it because of the sunlight?

If it is harvested at night, will it become moonlight wheat?

Unfortunately, it’s still very early in the evening.

Tang Li picked up a grain of golden sunlight wheat and studied it carefully.

[High-quality Sunlight Wheat] A magical plant. When made into cooked food, it grants an additional +50 stamina. It also comes with the buff of Burning Sun, which increases attack by 150% and doubles damage to dark creatures. It lasts for one hour.

The magical plant evolved from ordinary crops carries a hint of ominous aura.

Magic plant, and it also comes with buff!

Tang Li's eyes were fixed on the Burning Sun buff. In addition to the Three Fresh Vegetables, she finally had a second cooking dish with a positive buff.

If she had enough ingredients, she would have cooked a steamed bun on the spot to see the result.

"Come on!" Tang Li was so curious about the properties and taste of the steamed buns made from sunlight wheat that she felt like she had been injected with chicken blood. She became very excited and started to input her supernatural powers into a large bag of seeds.

The number of seeds accumulated over such a long time was considerable. When Tang Li's supernatural power was exhausted, she would plant wheat and use growth magic. When her magic power could not be restored, she would use her supernatural power again to improve the seeds. She was very busy and had a lot of fun.

Thanks to her efforts, one grain, two grains, three grains... the golden wheat grains are like sunshine adorning the branches, swaying gently in the breeze and scattering fine dust of light.

After harvesting a wave of Sunlight Wheat, Tang Li gave all the remaining rice dumplings to Xirang and asked her to plant the seeds as soon as possible with her younger brother and the yellow-named monster.

As for the robot, reprogramming it was too troublesome, so Tang Li didn't bother with that half.

Tang Li put the sunlight wheat into the stone mill and turned it into golden powder. She stood in the kitchen and started cooking with anticipation.

System: [You received 1 high-quality sun-wheat steamed bun.]

Not surprisingly, Tang Li saw three entries on the high-quality sun-soaked wheat buns, namely:

【Delicious】: Delicious food that will captivate your heart

[Curse]: Magic resistance -20 after consumption, duration 10 minutes.

[Burning Sun]: After consumption, it increases attack by 150%, doubles damage to dark creatures, and lasts for one hour.

The buffs are the same as those seen on the Sunlight Mai. The deliciousness and curse have been upgraded. In addition, the physical strength has also been increased a lot.

Tang Li picked up the steamed bun and took a careful bite. In addition to the original milky aroma and chewiness, there was an extra layer of feeling like sunshine sprinkled on wheat waves. The rich taste made the steamed bun more than a level higher.

"Delicious!" Tang Li finished the sun-dried wheat bun in a few bites and felt her whole stomach was warm. She really wanted to lie down on the ground and have a good nap.

Excellent food can make the eater feel happy. If it weren't for her career ambition, Tang Li would probably have just given up on this beautiful morning.

But since the steamed buns have been made, it doesn’t matter if some flower language is made. After all, the popularity of these two has always been high.

Soon, Tang Li made the Sunlight Wheat version of the steamed buns.

Maybe it's because of the characteristics of Sunlight Wheat, the buff of the produced flower rolls is also scorching sun, and the taste is also the same blessing, which is a curse... The original 3 seconds to fall has been changed to 6 seconds.

The debuff of "definitely falling within 3 seconds" has not been eliminated yet, and he has successfully won the title of King of Flower Scrolls. This time it becomes six seconds... Tang Li touched his nose silently and pretended not to see it.

Some people like to enjoy delicious food alone, while others are happy to share. Tang Li belongs to the latter. She can't wait to share the deliciousness of Sunlight Wheat Buns with all the players who support her.

After completing another round of sowing, Tang Li, who hadn't farmed for a long time, sighed tiredly and looked at the vast land planted with crops in the distance.

"Are you exhausted?" He poked Xirang's jelly-like belly, "Do you want to take a break?"

As he spoke, Tang Li gave a Sunlight Grass Bun to a Slime, and even gave some to a few yellow-named monsters, letting them finish eating before continuing with their work.

"Ji!" Xirang still had some bossy demeanor. He did not show too much joy even when he got the delicious steamed buns. Instead, his younger brother grew three meters tall when he heard the words. He did not look like a boss with several helpers.

Beneath their feet, newly sown seeds were absorbing the magic of the earth and striving to grow upwards.

For the entire morning, Tang Li and Xirang were busy and happy planting and harvesting sun wheat and cooking steamed buns and flower rolls.

Thanks to her unremitting efforts, the warehouse was soon filled with rows of sun-baked wheat buns and flower rolls.

If the planting speed could not keep up with the cooking speed, Tang Li would have used up all the wheat seeds accumulated during this period.

Fortunately, her last bit of common sense stopped her. If she used it up now, she wouldn't be able to experiment at night to see if she could grow moonlight wheat.

He suppressed his curiosity and kept some seeds, and gave the rest to Xirang to plant.

After saving up seeds for so long, they are still not enough for a day. It seems that the gang’s wheat planting task not only cannot be stopped, but the workload must be increased.

Speaking of this, Tang Li remembered that the gang seemed to be recruiting new members today, and she didn't know what the situation was now.

I quickly opened the gang channel and saw that the gang, which originally had 300 members, had grown to 500 people at some point.

The logistics staff are really efficient.

Tang Li clicked on the lively gang channel, everyone was chatting enthusiastically, and the most conspicuous one was Benming Mantou.

At this moment he is bragging about his achievements to the new gang members.

[Wind and Rain Together Service Hall] Benming Mantou: I saw that person turn around and directly pull me to attract hatred, but I am not someone who is easy to bully, so I just sneaked away and eliminated them with the boss, and reaped the benefits.

There are a bunch of newcomers coming to support them.

In addition to Benming Mantou, several team leaders, finance, and logistics staff were also very active. Some of them even gave out red envelopes under everyone's encouragement, and sometimes gave out some equipment. Li Zi also took out several space backpacks.

Although it is not very valuable and cannot be compared with professional players who receive salaries, the atmosphere on the scene is also very heated.

Tang Li thought that she had contributed a lot, so she took out some money to give out in red envelopes. Looking at the sun-soaked wheat buns and flower rolls in her hands, she casually stuffed a few in. It all depended on who was lucky enough to get one.

[Through the Storm Service Hall] Benming Mantou: Hey, Boss Lucky Star is finally done with his work!

[Through thick and thin service hall] For example: you are the only one missing, and you really should be introduced to everyone.

[Through the Storm Service Hall] Qingfeng: Boss, we have many fans of yours in our gang!

[Through Thick and Thin Service Hall] Dafengchui: That’s right, who in our Silver Camp hasn’t tasted the food cooked by the boss!

Tang Li was familiar with these two IDs. If she remembered correctly, she was their friend. When there were not many steamed buns and flower rolls in the past, they would often come directly to her to buy them. After they opened the store, they didn't bother her much. They were a group of very cute and sensible foodie players. Tang Li had a pretty good impression of them. She didn't expect that they would join Feng Wei Tong Zhou.

[Through the Storm Service Hall] Lucky Star: Thank you everyone, and I will give you a few more red envelopes.

Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, Tang Li decisively gave out dozens more red envelopes, some of which contained new steamed buns and flower rolls as usual.

As more and more were sent out, many people got them.

[Weather Together Service Hall] Kaka: Wow, those are steamed buns I've never seen before! [Sunlight Wheat Steamed Buns], so lucky!

[Through the Storm Service Hall] God’s Hand: I have two too.

[Wind and Rain Together Service Hall] Benming Mantou: Huh?! New Mantou, how come I didn’t know about it?

[Fengyutongzhou Service Hall] Benming Mantou: Boss, look at my name. Considering my love for mantou, isn’t it worth it for you to send me a new product privately?

[Through the Wind and Rain Service Hall] Benming Mantou: There is also the Hand of God. Why should one person eat two? Give me one and I will come to you right away!

[Through the Storm Service Hall] Hand of God: Get out!

Tang Li closed the gang channel with amusement, looked at the inventory of steamed buns and flower rolls, hesitated for a moment, and sent it privately to Cibuduoyi and several managers.

I had originally planned to give it to him when we were doing the dungeon at night, but since Benming Mantou brought it up first, I can give it to him in advance.

I’ll give the rest to you after killing monsters at night.

"Alas, there are still not enough raw materials." If there were enough high-quality wheat seeds, she wouldn't be so stingy.

[Benming Mantou]: I love you, I love you!

[Chestnut]: Thank you, Xiaoli, muah!

…

After closing the chat bar, Tang Li stood up, stretched, and left the planting space to eat something.

In the afternoon, Tang Li planned to refine the two potions that she had not finished yesterday.

We have an appointment to play a dungeon together tonight. With the instant blue and instant red potions, we can have a better chance of winning.

After packing up the kitchen things and going to the workshop, Tang Li took out her beloved crucible, set it up, and lit the magic bonfire.

After preparing the necessary herbs, Tang Li poured an appropriate amount of life essence into the crucible. As the life essence slowly melted in the crucible, Tang Li picked up the herbs in an orderly manner and processed them while waiting for the right opportunity to put them into the crucible.

Tang Li was busy having fun holding a magic wand in one hand and medicinal herbs in the other, and guiding the magic power to flow in the pot according to her wishes.

With a light flick of his fingertips, he scratched the eggplant-red berries on the magic wand, squeezing out the dark red juice.

Amidst the bubbling sound of "gurgling", the flowing red medicine slowly solidified, forming a thick liquid with the texture of jelly.

"Okay." Holding the 100% pure instant red potion, Tang Li took a sip out of curiosity and was surprised to find that it had no taste at all.

"It looks so delicious." Tang Li was puzzled for a long time, until she saw the description of the potion and realized, "So the debuff of the instant red potion is that you lose your sense of taste for one minute. What a terrible curse."

Tang Li couldn't believe how sad it would be to lose the ability to taste delicious food.

But she quickly thought, "Maybe I can try something more interesting next time."

He refined more than a dozen pots of instant red potion for use at night. When everything was almost ready, Tang Li attacked the last instant blue potion.

Like the Instant Red Potion, the Instant Blue Potion is also a relatively viscous liquid. The common point between the two potions is that they need to be compressed, so their properties are particularly unstable and it is easy to explode during the refining process.

No matter how careful Tang Li was, she still couldn't avoid overturning the car a few times.

Fortunately, the final result was gratifying.

The task of refining five potions with 100% purity was successfully completed.

The progress of refining medicine was much smoother than expected. Seeing that it was still early for the gathering time, Tang Li simply went back to the planting space to get some medicinal materials, intending to use this time to refine more potions. As a big mana consumer, she would use them even if others didn't.

In addition, Tang Li also replenished some night vision potions. A lot of night vision potions were consumed yesterday. Although there are still many in the package, she doesn’t know how long she will be busy today, so it is better to prepare more.

As for the red and blue potions, the gang has recruited several capable pharmacists, so Tang Li doesn't have to worry about it. Sometimes when she is lazy, she will directly exchange them in the gang warehouse.

[Words don’t express the meaning]: It’s almost time, remember to gather.

【Lucky Star】: Coming right up!

Tang Li had just finished cleaning up the studio when she received the news that was not what she wanted to say. She immediately got up and walked out.

"Let's go." Cibudiyi, who had been waiting outside the door, nodded to Tang Li who was hurrying out, and the two of them went to look for other people side by side.

After the five people reunited, they took out the teleportation talisman and returned to the copy.

"Thank you for your hard work," a lovely female player had replaced the AFK player in the dungeon. Tang Li felt that it was tiring for them to take turns guarding here, so she took out a few sets of steamed buns and flower rolls and said, "Take these back and share them with the people who helped today."

"Thank you, big boss!" The player's eyes widened in surprise when he saw what Tang Li took out. He quickly took the steamed buns and flower rolls, only to realize it later and feel shy. "Um, hehe, it's not hard..."

"Go back." God's Hand simply couldn't bear to see his team member being so useless. Seeing that she still wanted to stay here to get close to him, he quickly waved his hand and signaled her to leave quickly.

"The leader is so mean." The player left muttering.

Before the Hand of God could breathe a sigh of relief, he turned around and saw that his natal bun was also dead.

"That..." Benming Mantou said hesitantly, "That mantou is delicious. When will it be available for sale?"

"We're running low on raw materials, so we can't sell in bulk right now." Seeing Benming Mantou's face fall, Tang Li smiled and took out the steamed buns and flower rolls she had prepared long ago, "But it's enough for our own consumption."

"Long live!" shouted Benming Mantou!

"Everyone gets one." Noticing the eager looks of the others, Tang Li took out their share with a smile.

"Yeah!" Now everyone cheered.

"The debuff of steamed buns is quite strong. Let's just eat them after we go back." Benming Steamed Bun picked up a steamed bun and was about to bite it. Seeing this, Tang Li thought of the side effects of steamed buns and quickly reached out to stop him.

As for Huajuan, the side effects are also quite strong, but the advantage is that they last for a short time.

Try one or take them all home to enjoy.

"Then let's go back and eat both." After thinking for a while, everyone chose the latter.

"Night vision potion, share it with everyone."

"And the instant red and instant blue that I just made."

"Wow, I feel like I'm being kept by a rich woman." Li Zi took the things in his hands and sighed from the bottom of his heart.

"Yes, yes, this is the happiness of a gigolo!" Everyone agreed very much and almost rushed over to shout "Rich woman, I'm hungry!"

"Write it down and let Qingtuan calculate the contribution when we get back." He looked at Juerlizi, who didn't express his meaning clearly.

"No problem." Ju Renzi nodded.

"It's almost time, let's go." The bright moon hung in the sky, the dark forest rustled, and the group put on night vision potion and returned to the dense forest last night.

It was still the same watchtower as yesterday, and still the same black robes as yesterday. Everyone learned from yesterday's lesson and directly split into two groups to launch an attack at the same time.

"3, 2, 1—" God's Hand observed for a long time, a smile appeared on his lips, and he raised his fingertips lightly, "Now, do it!"

Just as he finished speaking, the next second, several skills came down quickly, and with the sound of breaking through the air, they directly hit the throat of the black-robed man on the watchtower.

The man in black robe, who had been on alert the entire day, didn't even have time to groan before he fell straight down and turned into a stream of experience points to fill everyone's experience bar.

The same situation occurred with the watchtower on the other side.

"Beautiful!" The melee fighters watching the battle chuckled and raised their shields, "It's finally our turn to play!"

Everyone quickly approached the base of the wall, climbed up quickly, and disappeared into the village in an instant under the cover of darkness.

"Look for lone patrol teams." Although the black-robed patrolmen in the village were of a high level, the number of people in the team was generally not as many as those outside the village. Everyone was acting without intention, and with the help of the darkness and the concealment of the houses, it was easy to catch the enemy off guard.

This was like a rat entering a rice jar. The black-robed men had no idea that they had sneaked into the village. They were caught off guard and didn't even have time to react before everyone focused their fire and took them away in one wave.

This is called not having enough level, so you have to make up for it with manpower.

With everyone's tacit cooperation, more and more patrol members were defeated one by one, and Tang Li's level rose to level 15 like a rocket.

"It's so exciting!" Tang Li tried her best to perform explosive impact, thinking that she could keep fighting monsters like this until tomorrow.

"Yeah, hahaha, this is the charm of the game." Benming Mantou just happened to hear it and agreed with a smile.

However, the two did not talk for long, and soon caught up with the main force and worked together with everyone to defeat the black robe.

However, the good times did not last long. The sudden disappearance of so many people was soon discovered by the black-robed men.

"Enemy attack!" The entire village exploded in an instant, and countless black-robed people poured out, roaring and war howls tearing through the night sky.

The lights came on one by one, and the whole village was as bright as day. The players had nowhere to hide and could only passively reveal their figures.

The word "freeze" didn't quite express its meaning. With a light tap of the staff, a new ice star exploded under the feet of the black-robed men. Taking advantage of this opportunity, everyone quickly found a place to hide.

The place God's Hand had already found was an abandoned cellar in the village with several exits. Even if he was caught accidentally, he could leave through other exits.

They retreated to their destination without any haste. Just as they were about to discuss their next strategy, a wall in the cellar moved away, revealing a young elf.

"Are you adventurers from outside?"
