Yan Xiaonan helped Ye Chenming walk to the black soil at the foot of the mountain. Looking at the lush cotton seedlings, Ye Chenming was very excited.
So there's cotton here! Dad has a lot of friends who need a lot of cotton. Once the cotton here grows, Dad will bring people over to pick it. Just as Ye Chenming was thinking about when the cotton would bloom, Yan Xiaonan had already closed her eyes slightly. The lush seedlings grew instantly, and then the cotton fruit branches grew wildly one by one.
As if given life, those fruit branches sprouted dozens more, and then cotton plants appeared one by one, and then began to grow rapidly, with thousands of cotton bolls bursting open and snow-white cotton flowers blooming in abundance.
Ye Chenming watched this scene with reverence, his excited heart slowly calming down. He repeatedly thought to himself, "What virtue or ability do I, Ye Chenming, possess to be able to marry a fairy? I will protect Yan Xiaonan for the rest of my life. I would rather die a hundred times than let Yan Xiaonan be harmed in the slightest."
Just as Ye Chenming was inwardly grumbling and distracted, the fruit branches began to break and wither rapidly. The ten acres of land, once covered in snow-white cotton, vanished in the blink of an eye.
Ye Chenming was startled. Where was the cotton? He stared wide-eyed, looking around. Just as he was about to ask a question, the cotton reappeared on the black soil. The cotton was constantly flying in the air, and one by one, the cotton bolls were opened up by an invisible force, and the cotton seeds inside fell down one by one. Ye Chenming would never forget that scene in his life.
Suddenly, a hundred or so rough burlap sacks appeared on the land. The mouths of the sacks opened one by one, and the cotton seemed to be attracted by the sacks, lining up to squeeze into them. Before long, the sacks were all full, and the cotton was packed tightly.
Ye Chenming touched the cotton in disbelief. Good heavens, the soft cotton had turned into a compacted little ball, tightly squeezed together. This was absolutely beyond human capability. Just how strong must Yan Xiaonan's superpowers be?
"Nan Nan, no wonder my grandfather said I couldn't protect you until I achieved something great. It seems I need to speed things up." Ye Chenming became excited, as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
From then on, Ye Chenming had another nickname in the army: Ye the Madman.
The burlap sacks on the ground disappeared, and the soil began to churn, erasing all traces. Yan Xiaonan then planted another batch of cotton, growing it back to its previous lush state before withdrawing his supernatural power.
Ye Chenming understood that Nan Nan had planted the cotton. But he couldn't understand why, if the cotton could grow quickly, it would grow slowly and deliberately. Yan Xiaonan took out her indigo work ID and told Ye Chenming the whole story.
Ye Chenming was shocked. Nan Nan had joined a special department, which was a very dangerous department that took on the most difficult missions.
Yan Xiaonan nodded. Only the most dangerous departments can protect them. Even if the King of Hell himself came to invite them for tea, the country would still send people to protect them at all costs, because people with superpowers are too precious, and the country is unwilling to lose them.
The incredibly intelligent Ye Chenming quickly grasped the underlying meaning. While feeling sorry for him, he also felt that this was the right path; only by relying on the country could they live peacefully.
“Nan Nan, your uncle is right. Superpowers increase slowly with age, so those cotton plants have to grow slowly.”
Yan Xiaonan nodded, knowing her uncle was naturally on her side: "Ye Chenming, I have too much cotton now. We harvested another ten thousand jin today. What should we do?"
Ye Chenming smiled: "Nannan, I've already written to my aunt. She's going to Huacheng to take a look herself. If it's worthwhile, she'll buy a batch to trade. She'll contact you then. As for cotton, it's a rare find. Just wait, I'll help you use it all up."
Yan Xiaonan nodded. Ye Chenming's abilities began to slowly emerge. Although he relied on Ye Huili's connections and money, isn't that how large families pass on their wealth from generation to generation? Ye Huili also gradually grew up by relying on Ye Ren.
The two supported each other as they walked up the mountain. When they reached a hollow near a stream, Yan Xiaonan used her supernatural ability to summon a roe deer. After the roe deer bravely sacrificed itself, Ye Chenming took over all the work.
"Nan Nan, do you have a magic weapon? A magic weapon that can hide things?" Ye Chenming asked while cleaning the roe deer.
"Yes, it can hold a lot of things," Yan Xiaonan replied readily.
"Nan Nan, you're so kind to tell me all your secrets. I promise I'll never let you down," Ye Chenming assured him.
"Yes, I believe you." Yan Xiaonan said "I believe you" aloud, but inwardly she thought smugly, "You try being negative and see what happens."
The fire was lit, and the roe deer meat was cut and skewered. The meat sizzled in the fire, and the aroma wafted far and wide, attracting animals to approach, but they only approached and dared not actually step into the territory where Yan Xiaonan was warming himself by the fire.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Yan Xiaonan caught a few more wild rabbits and pheasants, took out a large basket, and put the game into it: "Ye Chenming, let's take this home later and have chicken soup for dinner."
"Alright, you eat first. I'll clean these things up, otherwise the smell will be too strong." Ye Chenming picked up a bucket and started cleaning the pheasants and rabbits. The mountain eagle soared in the sky and, at Yan Xiaonan's call, flapped its wings and flew down.
They love to eat the entrails of wild rabbits, pheasants, and roe deer. Ye Chenming thoughtfully gathered all the entrails together and set them aside for the mountain eagles to eat. There is no such thing as waste in nature.
Ye Chenming cleaned the rabbit and pheasant, put them into his basket, washed his hands, and sat down next to Yan Xiaonan. Yan Xiaonan had already grilled many skewers of roe deer meat, which tasted even more delicious after being brushed with honey.
The two men unceremoniously devoured half of the roe deer meat, tossing the remaining half to the mountain eagles, who joyfully swooped down to snatch the meat from the ground.
Suddenly, a mountain eagle let out a warning cry at Yan Xiaonan, took off, circled around, and then returned to its original spot, quickly eating what was on the ground. Yan Xiaonan closed his eyes slightly, and his consciousness spread out. In the distance, two bears were slowly walking towards him.
Yan Xiaonan's heart skipped a beat. She quickly put the basket into her spatial storage, extinguished the fire with water, and even stomped on it a few times to make sure all the sparks were put out. Then she grabbed Ye Chenming and ran down the mountain. She did all these actions quickly and fiercely, but Ye Chenming knew that Nannan must have discovered something.
Ye Chenming pulled Yan Xiaonan down the mountain. Being a man, he was strong and fast. In the blink of an eye, they reached the car, opened the door, and Ye Chenming prepared to drive away.
