Chapter 57 From a distance, Boss Yu saw the forest behind the farm, but the middle of the forest seemed to be bald...
From a distance, Boss Yu saw the forest behind the farm, but there seemed to be a bald spot in the middle of the forest. When he walked closer, Boss Yu found that there were actually trees, but they were all small saplings.
Boss Yu didn't think much about it. He saw Ying Yuanxing sowing seeds and looked at the lush crops on the farm.
Ying Yuanxing had just finished harvesting the garlic, so Boss Yu was not shocked by the smell of garlic. He only saw the carrots, strawberries and other crops on the side. Even if he was just looking at them, he could feel the strange energy in them. Boss Yu couldn't help but have a hint of longing in his eyes.
Especially when he saw Lan Ying happily eating strawberries, Boss Yu's eyes were filled with surprise and heat. He recognized Lan Ying. Wasn't this the fish that Ying Yuanxing had rescued before? After arriving at the farm, it could actually eat food that was better than grass. It really made Ying Yuanxing so envious.
If I had known that this would be the treatment I would receive on the farm, I should not have brought my son and brother back.
Boss Yu thought about what happened before and felt a little regretful. If his son and brother could have stayed on the farm all the time, maybe they would have been the ones to enjoy this treatment.
Lan Ying didn't know what Boss Yu was thinking. If he knew, he would probably roll his eyes. Although he ate well, he didn't eat for free. Nearly 7,000 plots of land on the farm were waiting for him to water them. It could be said that the burden of watering the entire farm fell on his shoulders.
He demonstrated his ability to control water. Originally, he wanted to eat more crops from the farm so that he could accumulate more strange energy. But now, although he ate a lot every day, he couldn't accumulate any strange energy because using the ability to control water was too strenuous. He consumed as much as he ate every day.
However, Lan Ying couldn't say that he had no gains. At least by watering the plants every day, his ability to control water had improved a lot. In addition, his body was washed by the pure strange energy, and through the continuous cycle of absorption and consumption, some of the hidden injuries in his body had healed a lot.
And the best part is, after his water control ability improved, the amount of strange power consumed was reduced, but the number of strange plants supplied to him by Ying Yuanxing did not decrease. Lan Ying believed that it would not be long before he would be able to accumulate strange energy to grow.
Boss Yu retracted his gaze and felt that he didn't need to envy Lan Ying too much. Although the Yu family had missed the previous opportunity, by offering the Strange Domain this time, they could also get in touch with Ying Yuanxing.
Ying Yuanxing also saw Boss Yu, who was standing outside the farm and called him in. Boss Yu took a look at the fields on the farm and knew that Ying Yuanxing was very busy. He didn't say hello and went straight to report on the harvest of the past three days.
When Ying Yuanxing heard Boss Yu say that the area of the strange domain had expanded tenfold, he showed a look of surprise.
Boss Yu had been paying attention to Ying Yuanxing's facial expression and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although the strange emotions might be a disguise, Ying Yuanxing would not lie to him about such a small matter.
"Are you sure you want to give me the Strange Domain?" Before accepting the Strange Domain core, Ying Yuanxing still asked for the final confirmation.
Boss Yu glanced at Lan Ying and nodded more firmly than before.
Before seeing the blue shadow, Boss Yu was also worried. What if Ying Yuanxing accepted the Strange Domain but was unwilling to give any small profits? Although the possibility was very low, it was not impossible.
Just thinking about the situation of the Yu family: Yu Yan and his family were in much better condition after eating the grass, even though they hadn't eaten grass for a long time, they were still in good condition, but this good condition could only last for a limited time. If they couldn't get in touch with Ying Yuanxing, their condition would definitely get worse. Boss Yu still had a firm belief.
And seeing that Lan Ying can actually live so comfortably on the Ying family farm, although Lan Ying seems to have to work, this further proves that on Ying Yuanxing, hard work will be rewarded.
Although Boss Yu didn't say it, Ying Yuanxing also knew what the other party's purpose was in offering the Strange Domain.
He could just accept it without giving any name, but...
"I know what you want. Since you are willing to give me the Ghostly Territory, I will also give you what you want." Ying Yuanxing said. Without waiting for Boss Yu to speak, he continued, "I have two plans. One is to give you ten portions of fodder every month for three years. The other is to become an employee of the farm and receive a monthly salary. The salary can be used to buy crops on the farm."
"I choose the second one." Boss Yu chose the second one without much hesitation.
If he hadn't come to the farm, he would naturally want to choose the former one, but seeing the abundant crops on the farm, Boss Yu subconsciously felt that it would be more useful to get his salary and buy crops on the farm.
Since Ying Yuanxing can grow strange plants without impurities, is it possible to grow strange plants without impurities in the future?
"Are you sure?" Ying Yuanxing asked.
"Sure." Boss Yu nodded firmly.
Since Boss Yu has made the decision, Ying Yuanxing said nothing more and told him to open his mind. He was going to take the core of the strange domain.
Boss Yu calmed himself down and relaxed his body and mind. Ying Yuanxing looked at Boss Yu, thinking about how to take out the core of the strange domain. Although Boss Yu looked like a physical entity, he should be just as strange.
Recalling the feeling of taking the core of the strange domain before, Ying Yuanxing looked at Boss Yu again and felt that the other party's existence became a little illusory. A somewhat dim core was at the chest, waiting for him to take it.
The core of this mysterious domain does not have Xuanying’s flash!
The Ghost Domain Core given by Xuanying was as bright as the stars in the sky, and even if the light was blocked, it was still a shining gem. Then the Ghost Domain Core given by Boss Yu was like the scraps cut from the gem mine. It was more like a stone than a gem.
Ying Yuanxing stretched out his hand and found something wrong. There was a layer of gray mist on his hand.
"?" Ying Yuanxing looked at Xuanying, puzzled.
"Wear gloves to hold it, it's more hygienic." Xuanying whispered.
The corners of Ying Yuanxing's lips twitched slightly. Why didn't Xuanying tell him to wear gloves when he took it before?
But looking at Boss Yu's body, Ying Yuanxing still accepted the gloves Xuanying made for him. He stretched out his hand and felt his hand inserted into the melted butter. It was clean and neat. The gloves even had auxiliary functions, allowing his hand to land steadily and accurately on the core of the strange domain.
Ying Yuanxing concentrated and calmed himself, grasped the gray translucent stone, and pulled his hand out.
The audience watched with great fascination. When Ying Yuanxing took away Xuanying's strange domain core before, the fog was too thick and they couldn't see it at all. Now they could finally see it for once.
The sketch artists of the Dawn Bureau stared at the screen intently. Extracting the core of the strange domain was information they had never come across before. It only appeared once in a blue moon, so they had to write it down well.
Although it may not necessarily work, there is still a difference between knowing and not knowing.
[Wow, so this is how you extract the core of the strange domain. It looks pretty simple.]
[But the strange core looks so plain. If I hadn’t seen the host take it out, I would have thought it was a crystal stone of poor quality.]
[Simple is relative, right? It feels like if we just search inside the body, the host doesn't have X-ray vision, so it wouldn't be easy to get the core. After all, it's just a small stone, it's not easy to find.]
[Look at this, it's so weird. He said it so easily before, I thought it was easy to offer the Weird Domain Core, but looking at him now, it doesn't seem that easy.]
Boss Yu's face was pale and he looked a little exhausted. Although he had made preparations long ago, the core of the strange domain was bound to the strangeness. The feeling of extracting it was like taking away the most important thing in his body. Even though he had not been integrated with this strange domain for a long time, removing the core of the strange domain still caused some damage to him.
But even so, Boss Yu still admired Ying Yuanxing a little. It was not easy to extract the core of the strange domain. One had to find the core, then cut off the domain master's control over the core, and then take it out.
When he took it before, it took him a long time and caused considerable damage to the domain master. But when Ying Yuanxing took it, he was much faster. He was worthy of being the big weird he had chosen. He was powerful and had rich experience in extracting the core of the weird domain.
Ying Yuanxing looked at the Guiyu core in his hand, but didn't use it directly. He put it away, looked at Boss Yu's face, subconsciously glanced at Xuanying, and then took out the carrot juice and handed it to Boss Yu: "Eat this to replenish yourself first."
Boss Yu hesitated for a second, but gave up and took a sip of the carrot juice. His complexion immediately looked much better.
Even if he wanted to restrain himself, he was not uninjured during the three days of robbing the strange domain, but he forced himself to suppress the injuries. The loss of strange energy was also great, and the removal of the strange core also aggravated his injuries. Faced with the food that was pure with strange energy, Boss Yu tried to hold back, but still couldn't, and drank the carrot juice in two or three gulps.
Ying Yuanxing watched how fast he drank the carrot juice and silently gave him another portion. Boss Yu couldn't wait to take it and gulped it down. He drank five portions of carrot juice in a row. Boss Yu didn't take any more. He felt that his injuries that were aggravated by extracting the core of the strange domain were all healed, and even the injuries from the previous battle were much better.
Drink it again and it will be over.
When Xuanying saw that Boss Yu refused, he snorted lightly, thinking that this guy was not that greedy. If he still wanted to take it, he would have to teach him a lesson.
Ying Yuanxing also nodded in his heart, not knowing whether it was because he absorbed the core given by Xuanying. He could not feel the strange state before, but now, he could feel a little bit. For example, Boss Yu’s current condition was better than when he first came. This was the effect of the fifth serving of carrot juice.
The fact that Boss Yu was able to control himself at this time shows that the other party is not that greedy.
"Boss, please deduct the money for this weird food from my salary." Boss Yu said quickly when he heard Xuanying's snort.
Ying Yuanxing shook his head: "No need, these five glasses of carrot juice are your welcome gift for joining the company."
If he hadn't drunk the carrot juice, Yu might have refused to let Ying Yuanxing go, but since they had already finished eating, it would have seemed hypocritical. Yu said nothing, looked around the farm, and asked, "Boss, what should I do on the farm?"
"First, notify the other monsters in the Weird Domain and ask them to pay attention. I will annex the Weird Domain and move it to the farm. Tell them not to panic. By the way, if you don't want to come, you have one hour to leave. If you are late, we will not wait for you."
When moving to the forest before, Ying Yuanxing didn't think too much about it. After all, there should be nothing weird in the forest. However, there must be something weird in Boss Yu's strange area. If he didn't tell him in advance, it might cause panic.
Boss Yu nodded and quickly notified everyone that not many monsters left. After all, it didn't matter who they worked for. At least they were familiar with their hometown. If they moved outside, they might be eaten by other monsters.
After giving the notice, Ying Yuanxing asked Boss Yu to wait aside first, and then went into the house. Xuanying followed him consciously.
Upon seeing Xuan Ying, Ying Yuanxing suddenly remembered Boss Yu's reaction just now, and couldn't help asking, "Didn't you feel uncomfortable when I took away the core of the Ghost Domain?"
Xuanying touched his chest. It felt a little empty, but it seemed to be filled with something else.
"No, Boss Yu was already weak, and he got hurt after the core of the Ghost Domain was extracted. I'm fine."
Ying Yuanxing glanced at Xuanying and thought about Xuanying's previous reaction. There was indeed no change, except...
"When can you turn into a human?" Ying Yuanxing felt that it would be easier to discern Xuanying's emotions when he turned into a human. Otherwise, with the appearance of a ball, it would be easier to discern when his emotions were revealed, but if his emotions were restrained, how could he watch the ball?
"The transformation may take some time." Xuanying stuttered for a moment. He was still not satisfied with his current appearance and tried to make himself look better. However, he didn't know what happened. After a while, his appearance returned to its previous state.
Hearing Xuanying's somewhat guilty words, Ying Yuanxing suspected that Xuanying might have already transformed, but was not satisfied with his appearance, so he wanted to change it.
Ying Yuanxing suddenly wanted to eat some pickled garlic to see what Xuanying looked like at this moment.
When Xuanying met Ying Yuanxing's gaze, he felt something was wrong and couldn't help but take a step back.
Ying Yuanxing blinked and collected his thoughts. Since Xuanying could be seen at any time, he decided to focus on his business first.
Ying Yuanxing took out the hidden core of the strange domain, opened the map, and placed the gray stone on it. The map suddenly became larger. Ying Yuanxing looked at the newly appeared map and thought about where to put it.
Part of the strange territory that Boss Yu seized was flat land, and there was also a part with small hills, a river, and a beach along the coast. This coast was a real coast. From the beach, you could walk about five meters into the sea, and then it ended.
Thinking that the ocean in this world is also a strange place, Ying Yuanxing suspected that this ocean might be a mudflat, which only becomes an ocean at high tide. However, even if this is the case, Ying Yuanxing is very satisfied.
If it weren't for Boss Yu getting this beach, he wouldn't know when he could go to the beach.
Ying Yuanxing looked at the map and felt that this strange area was not easy to place, because it was large enough and had a rich terrain. No matter where it was placed, it seemed inappropriate. It would be best to split it up...
Ying Yuanxing looked at the strange domain that automatically separated according to his will, took a deep breath, and without moving the map, he got up and went out, asking Boss Yu to make arrangements for all the strange things to leave this strange domain. If the house could be moved, it would be best to move it as well. He was going to do a big project, and if he continued to stay in the strange domain, he might get hurt.
Boss Yu didn't understand why, but he still gave the order. While the other strange people were moving, Ying Yuanxing should take advantage of the opportunity to plant garlic.
No, we need to find someone to learn how to sow seeds, or to improve the efficiency of sowing seeds.
Ying Yuanxing was running frantically to scatter seeds, thinking that the farm could now plant 7,000 plots of land, plus the strange domain sent by Boss Yu, there were almost more than 8,000 plots of land. Even if he sowed very quickly, he could only sow one plot of land at a time. It would take almost five hours to walk through the entire farm.
This is just for sowing and harvesting, which also takes about five hours. However, because the crops mature at different times, it is rare for all the crops to be sown and harvested. But the land is getting bigger and bigger, and if he doesn't shorten the time for sowing and harvesting, even twenty-four hours a day may not be enough.
Although it was possible to let Xuanying find some more shadows to do the work, Ying Yuanxing thought about the work that was on Xuanying and couldn't bear to let him do so much.
To be honest, Xuanying is the busiest person in the entire farm. He has to have his clones working, supervise the shadow's work, and protect him. It can be said that at least one-third of the farm's work is done by him.
Even if those who are capable should do more work, Xuanying should not be exploited too much.
Thinking about the weird things in the weird domain that was about to be annexed, Ying Yuanxing felt that if he could keep these weird things secret, he could find capable weird things to do odd jobs on the farm.
But these are all things that happened later. After Ying Yuanxing heard Boss Yu report that all the weird things had been moved, he began to dismantle the map.
For flat land, he placed it at the edge of the farmland. For hills, Ying Yuanxing placed it at the edge of the forest, turning the road to the forest into an uphill road. As for the river, Ying Yuanxing looked around and decided to fix the source on the hill, and then let it meander down and flow over the gaps between the fields, making it much more convenient to get water.
For the last beach, Ying Yuanxing placed it directly south of the farm.
After doing all this, Ying Yuanxing closed the map and heard a loud rumbling sound, and the ground shook.
Ying Yuanxing rushed out of the wooden house and saw a river running through the farm, which had forcibly divided the originally neat farmland, but fortunately the crops were not damaged.
The biggest change is the south. Originally, there was a fence in the south of the farm, but now there are golden beaches and blue oceans. The wind blowing from the ocean feels particularly warm, making people feel the taste of summer.
Boss Yu looked at all this in amazement. He had annexed other strange domains before, but his annexation only made the other party's domain stick to the edge of his domain. He could not split the domain and then integrate it into the terrain of his own domain.
Taking this problem into consideration, when he went to seize the Strange Territory, he deliberately arranged the order, for fear that the terrain of the Strange Territory would become irregular, which Ying Yuanxing would not like. But now, he felt that he had really worried in vain.
The audience was also stunned. When the forest was annexed before, although it was shocking to see a forest behind the wooden house, the shock was limited. After all, the change in the farm was only in that corner.
But now, the farm has changed in all aspects, from an ordinary plain farm to one with hills, rivers, and a small ocean.
[Annexing the strange domain feels like creating a world]
[I used to feel that this strange world was the world, but now I suddenly feel that it is still a bit like a game]
[No wonder the weirdos all like to annex other weird domains. If I had this ability, I would also like to annex them and transform my own weird domain at the same time. This would be too cool.]
[I can’t even play games so happily, but the anchor can be so happy. I’m so envious]
[It seems that there is still not much land suitable for farming]
[It’s okay. Since we can annex this strange domain, the host will definitely be able to annex more strange domains. By then, there will be a lot of farmland.]
[Although it’s a bit unethical, I suddenly want to go out and rob. I don’t even need ghost coins. I can just rob some ghost domains and I’ll feel like I’m making a killing.]
Ying Yuanxing didn't know what the audience in the live broadcast room expected of him. Looking at the huge changes in the farm, Ying Yuanxing's mouth corners curled up, but his hand unconsciously touched his stomach.
He seemed a little full, as if he had eaten too much.
But the problem is, he didn't eat anything today. Most importantly, since he entered this strange world, no matter how much he ate, he never felt full. But today...
Ying Yuanxing thought about what happened today and his eyes fell on the map. Could it be that he was too full from the annexation of Guiyu?
Ying Yuanxing felt that he seemed to have had this feeling of being full three days ago, but the feeling was relatively mild and he did not pay much attention to it. At that time, he was about 70% full, and now he was 90% full, and the feeling was particularly obvious.
Ying Yuanxing looked at the forest, then at the newly annexed strange territory today, and felt that his guess was not impossible. The combined area of these two strange territory was about twice the size of the farm. It seemed normal for them to expand so much at one time.
"Is it uncomfortable here? Is there something wrong with the strange domain core he gave me?" While Boss Yu was still in shock, Xuanying noticed Ying Yuanxing's little movement, quickly came over and asked in a low voice.
At the end, he looked at Boss Yu with a somewhat unfriendly look. In his opinion, Ying Yuanxing was fine before, but he felt a little uncomfortable after swallowing up the other party's strange domain core. There must be something wrong with Boss Yu.
"No, it's not his problem. Maybe he was a little too full from annexing the Strange Domain." Ying Yuanxing shook his head.
"Overeated?" Xuan Ying was stunned, remembering that he had also been overeated when he devoured the weirdness before, but there seemed to be no way to relieve the overeating unless he vomited out the food.
"Or you vomit..." Xuanying stopped talking before he could finish. No, ordinary food could be vomited out, but the strange food, if you eat it and then vomit it out, it will hurt your body.
Seeing how much the farm had expanded, Xuanying looked towards the forest behind the cabin, feeling a little annoyed. The forest was so big, he should have let Ying Yuanxing eat half of it instead of swallowing it all. Now...
Ying Yuanxing suppressed his discomfort from eating too much and called Boss Yu over: "It's not good to keep those weirdos who moved away outside forever, but there is no place for them to live on the farm. Ask them if they want some subsidies to live somewhere else, or to move to the village."
Ying Yuanxing remembered that many places in Taoxi Village were uninhabited. No, there were no weird people living there. Letting these weird people move in would add some popularity.
"But it's weird to move here. I like people who are honest and don't cause too much trouble." Ying Yuanxing added.
Boss Yu nodded. He decided that he couldn't inform the person over the phone and had to talk to him in person. After all, if they were just moving to Guiyu, it would be fine. But if they were moving to Taoxi Village, it would be a bit strange and they would not want to come.
After Boss Yu left, Ying Yuanxing felt a little overwhelmed. He really didn't expect that the feeling of being overwhelmed by the annexation of the Strange Domain would be so uncomfortable. He had previously thought about expanding the area a little more, but now it seems that maintaining the current area is good enough.
"I, let's go see a doctor." Xuanying looked at Ying Yuanxing frowning in pain and at a loss, and suddenly remembered the village doctor and said immediately.
Ying Yuanxing actually didn't want to see the weird doctor, but considering his current state, he thought about it and nodded. Xuanying picked up Ying Yuanxing and rushed to the clinic.
