Chapter 50 A new look

Seeing that the golden-armored dung beetles had gotten into the swing of things and were actively adapting to the new environment, Josh returned to the farm cottage with peace of mind.

Seeing Josh coming back, the jumping lambs gathered around from a distance.

"Meh" Josh Josh!

"Baaa" I'm back, I'm back.

The bleating sound gave Qiao Xi a headache. "Okay, okay, let's go home and have fun."

There was also a lamb that tried to lick Josh's hand, wanting to see if he had brought back anything delicious.

"Hey, it's so dirty, stop licking!" Josh pulled his hands away to stop them from licking, patted the butts of these disobedient little guys, and drove them away.

As expected, the place where Josh was standing was also filled with black unknown spheres.

Fortunately, he encountered the golden-armored dung beetle this time, otherwise he would have to find a way to sweep up these dung balls. Josh was secretly glad.

At the edge of the farmland, Josh settled the ladybug and then returned to the farm cottage.

The three little pigs ran out of the woods chasing each other, and when they saw Josh coming back, they turned around and ran straight to the farm cottage.

"Huff, huff." Mouth guard, Josh, put them on us quickly.

"Hmph!" Lots and lots!

"Hmph~" I can't finish it!

What the hell? Josh was confused, and then he saw the little pigs pushing for muzzles and asking Josh to put them on.

"Okay, okay, no rush, come on." She put the muzzles on them one by one, and before Qiao Xi could ask more questions, the muzzled burrowing pigs turned around and ran into the woods.

Could it be that a mushroom nest was discovered?

If you can’t finish it, then you can gain a lot.

Well, we’ll have to wait until they are harvested for dinner tonight.

This was the first time Josh put muzzles on them to pick mushrooms. He had only tried it twice before for fun and had never really let them do any work.

I wonder how much I can bring back? Qiao Xi is looking forward to it.

Pick the ripe fruits from several milk jug fruit trees and set them aside. The jumping lambs have been well fed and watered in the past two days, and some of them have started to swell up underneath, probably because they have given birth to lambs.

I just don't know why all the lambs I bought are adults. What about the lambs? Qiao Xi didn't dare to think about it anymore. It would make him uncomfortable.

It was still early to make dinner, so Josh walked around to see what was going on around the farm.

Hey, have the golden-armored dung beetles started working? Qiao Xi saw the huge insects flying around, as if they were communicating with each other.

Looking closer, it was calling for its companions to come and deal with the poop near the farm hut.

Seeing Josh, they made a "click" sound, telling Josh not to go over there, as it was dirty.

They are just tiny dung beetles, not the ferocious elves favored by offices and pioneers. They know that their habits may be annoying, but they cannot help it.

They know that many people dislike them for being dirty, but there is very little they can do. They can only try their best to keep their nests clean, and help the neighbors around them deal with their feces to the best of their ability. They keep that small space tidy and pile the feces into balls neatly.

But misunderstandings happen from time to time, and the round balls of dung sometimes stain the pants and shoes of guests or staff.

Every time this happens, they will encounter some small punishments, and hunger will accompany their lives. For this reason, they can only work harder to find food in the surrounding nests. However, since the distance is too far, more small accidents are likely to occur, and the cycle will repeat over and over again.

Life in the Elf Professional Office was not really happy for them, but they had no choice but to leave.

They were originally raised by the firm. Unlike other wild or owned elves, they cannot leave. As long as no one employs them, they will never leave.

Although the Elf Career Office was originally established to enhance elves' identity and develop together with humans, valuable things will never be discarded at will.

Even dead elves will not be thrown out at will.

They thought about playing dead, but when they saw the carapace of their dead companion appear on a shield, they became even more silent.

They long to return to all natural environments such as mountains, grasslands, and swamps. Day after day, the unsuitable living environment causes their reproductive capacity to decline, and many small dung beetles die while still in eggs.

Josh didn't know that the little dung beetles in the breeding balls they brought back had already exceeded the normal hatching time but had not hatched yet, they just didn't give up.

These dung beetles are already very old, but the people in the office don't care, and Josh doesn't know either.

When they arrived at the new environment, they were excited and thrilled, but more importantly, they were happy because they could finally escape from that prison.

The poop all over the ground that bothered Josh made them even more excited. This was a perfect breeding ground for them. They would work hard for the farmer, maintain the farm environment, and breed their next generation of dung beetles.

Each of them had a body the size of a palm, but at this moment they were pushing a dung ball that was several times bigger than a giant lemon. They saw Qiao Xi staring at them closely.

One particular dung beetle even stopped and held its dung ball above its head to show it to Josh, who exclaimed in amazement.

Hearing her shocked voice, it also made a "click" sound, it was laughing at her.

Josh was indeed surprised. The small sheep dung balls on the ground were rolled into a big ball by them and pushed along the designated route, one by one, in an orderly manner and without any panic.

The flying dung beetle is their route commander, which confirms the route for its companions in the air and avoids obstacles.

Josh looked at them for a while and felt relieved. Looking at these hardworking little guys, Josh felt indescribably happy. This could be considered as finding a treasure.

Although others look down on them, they are very powerful to her.

Not knowing how they were doing in the office, Josh felt a little distressed when he saw their big, shriveled bodies.

He evenly mixed the big-tailed yak milk left over from today with a spoonful of fine-leg honey, and crushed a few crisp honey lemons into it. Qiao Xi put these things into origami leaves, divided them into pieces, and placed them on the path that the yak must pass through to provide them with nutrition.

As soon as he put them down, Josh saw them cheering "click" and "click", and then ran up to have a big meal. They also like to eat these things.

Not wanting to disturb them while they worked, Josh packed up his things and prepared to make dinner.

The timing was just right. As soon as Josh reached the front of the cabin, he saw the three little pigs running back from the woods, panting.

They gathered around Josh and asked her to remove the muzzle.

When Qiao Xi saw that the three mouthpieces were stuffed full, she quickly poured out the contents. She didn't want to overload and damage the space equipment, so she had to keep them for a few more days.

After the contents of the three muzzles were poured out, Josh was stunned.

There were three full piles of mushrooms, and sweet mushrooms were not even rare among them.

Only then did Qiao Xi deeply experience what it meant when he bought the Digging Pig that it was good at finding precious mushrooms.

I realized I forgot about the ladybug, so I added a sentence to supplement it, hehe.
