Chapter 180 Blacklisting
Meng Qingyin checked the information of the seed collector.
Seed Collector: Can collect seeds from all kinds of plants.
The explanation was simple and straightforward, but it didn't resolve Meng Qingyin's questions.
However, she plans to try it herself.
Meng Qingyin told Li the blacksmith what she was doing and then drove off to look for crops.
After walking for a few minutes, Meng Qingyin came across a pine forest.
She immediately told Little Elf to stop the car and took the seed collector to the pine forest.
This pine forest is very large and has many pine cones.
Meng Qingyin first picked a pine cone and peeled it open.
It was empty; there were no pine nuts inside.
She took out the seed collector.
The seed collector looks a bit like a temperature gun, with a scanner at the front and a handle connected to the scanner. There is a "Start Scan" button on the handle, and the outlet is at the bottom of the handle, from which the seeds should fall.
Meng Qingyin aimed the seed collector at the pine tree and pressed the "Start Scan" button.
[The current plant is a pine tree; we are collecting pine seeds for you...]
Meng Qingyin pursed her lips nervously.
Three seconds later, a pine nut fell out of the exit!
Meng Qingyin breathed a sigh of relief, unable to hide her excitement.
It really works!
With the seed collector, she could collect seeds, and the problem of red beans and lotus seeds was easily solved.
The only thing to do now is to find red bean plants and lotus flowers!
Although there are many fruit trees on this map, it is still too insignificant for one person to do it alone.
Meng Qingyin sent a message in the chat area: "If any players encounter red bean plants or lotus flowers, please message me privately. I am willing to offer 1 silver coin as a reward."
Century Egg and Lean Pork Congee: Bump!
Yu Cha is not a loser: "I passed by a lotus pond an hour ago, but unfortunately I couldn't go back, otherwise I could have crossed paths with Boss Mengmeng! What a pity!"
Bai Yu: "Lotus flowers are easy to deal with, but the problem is we don't recognize the red bean plants. They don't bear fruit, so how do we know if they're red beans, mung beans, or even soybeans?"
Mu Raining: "Hehe, my family used to grow beans, so I can tell them apart, but I don't know if I can find them."
Shi Yunlan: "I'm a little curious, what does the big shot want with these two crops?"
"..."
After sending the message, Meng Qingyin stopped paying attention to the chat area and started searching for it herself.
A short while later, someone sent her a message.
It was Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan: "I heard you're looking for lotus flowers? Perfect timing, I've come across a lotus pond."
Meng Qingyin unconsciously frowned.
From their first meeting, she didn't have a good impression of Zhang Yan.
Back when she was still in the orphanage, she was probably only five or six years old, a refined-looking man came to the orphanage.
The director said he wanted to adopt a child from the orphanage and urged everyone to behave well.
Every child tries to express themselves, and she is no exception.
They often went hungry in the orphanage, and the director would beat and scold them when he was unhappy.
Moreover, children in orphanages mature earlier, and they form cliques that exclude each other.
Because of her cute appearance, she was always the one who was ostracized. Sometimes they would tease her and deliberately ruin her clothes, and the headmaster would beat her with a rattan cane.
Sometimes, they would throw bugs into her porridge, which would frighten her so much that she would drop the bowl and be severely beaten by the headmaster.
At first, she would explain to the dean, but the dean didn't care about the reasons and would instead ask, "Why do they only bully you and not others?"
From then on, no matter what grievances she suffered, she would never complain to the dean again.
She resisted the children, but she was alone and couldn't fight them at all.
Eager to leave the orphanage, she tried her best to sing a song she had just learned.
Sure enough, the man chose her at first glance.
She was overjoyed at the time, feeling that she could finally leave the orphanage.
She will always remember that sunny day, just like her mood.
Soon, the dean led her to the reception room, where the man was already waiting.
After exchanging a few words with the man in the courtyard, he left her in the reception room and pushed the door open to leave.
Then, the refined-looking man drew the curtains and began to take off his clothes. Summer clothes are thin and light.
In just a few seconds, the man was completely naked.
She was so frightened that she didn't know what to do and just wanted to turn around and run away.
But the door was locked.
It was locked by the dean.
She cried and pounded on the door, but no one came.
As the man approached, she panicked and grabbed a teacup, throwing it at him.
It was a cup of scalding hot tea, and the tea spilled precisely onto the man's genitals.
The man immediately let out a pig-like scream.
She ran to the window without a care, pulled back the curtains, and jumped out.
The reception room was on the second floor. Jumping down wouldn't kill her, but it would break her leg.
Later, the dean angrily beat her with a rattan cane, locked her in a room, and only gave her a moldy bun each day.
That period was the darkest time of her life.
Her wounds were infected, and the fracture in her leg was tormenting her; she felt like she was living a life worse than death.
During this time, a beautiful white kitten would stay with her, bringing her water and medicine.
She didn't care whether the medicine could save her or not, and swallowed it haphazardly.
She had recurring fevers and occasionally dreamed that the little white cat was talking to her and telling her to get better soon.
Miraculously, she actually pulled through.
But the little white cat was never seen again.
Later, she seriously doubted that it was just a dream caused by her fever.
Later, she became silent and taciturn every day, making herself dirty, until she grew up and finally left that cage.
She worked part-time to finish university and then got an internship at a pretty good company.
Even though her boss made things difficult for her in every way, she didn't dare to resign easily because she knew that jobs were hard to find.
A sudden message notification interrupted Meng Qingyin's recollection.
Zhang Yan: "Are you there? Weren't you looking for lotus flowers? Do you still want them?"
Meng Qingyin frowned in disgust.
What she hates most is exhibitionists.
Although Zhang Yan was wearing a jacket that day, she still felt unwell.
There were so many lotus flowers; she didn't want to make a deal with him.
Meng Qingyin immediately blocked Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan waited a while longer, but still didn't receive a reply from Mengmeng.
He sent another message to inquire, only to find that he had been blocked.
He couldn't understand why the other party had blocked him after saying they needed lotus flowers.
Are all the people in District 30 this inexplicable?
Thinking of the human enforcers from yesterday and the snowman enforcers from this morning, he felt a lump in his throat.
Perhaps he should move to another district.
