Chapter 167 Daisy has a story
The little spiders surrounded the chameleon and stared at it with their big eyes without blinking. Without charging any power or using any big moves, the chameleon easily spit out a silk thread as thick as a young grass stem, and then spit out another silk thread of normal thickness, giving it to Daisy as teaching material.
A curious spider tried to explore how the chameleon silkworm could produce such thick silk. It touched the silk-spinning mouth of the chameleon silkworm without permission and was successfully tied up by the silkworm and turned into a teaching aid.
Aunt Daisy first let the color-changing silkworms demonstrate, then let them communicate with each other, and finally she herself gave a lecture, explaining everything from the accumulation of attribute energy to the direction of energy, in a very clear and logical way.
Josh was so excited after hearing this.
It's break time after class.
"Aunt Daisy is so amazing," Josh said with emotion as he watched Daisy, whose every move in front of the Mian Mian Spider students showed the temperament of a master teacher.
"This kind of little thing is not that simple." Daisy grinned, showing a bit of pride.
"By the way, Aunt Daisy, what kind of ability do you have?" Josh asked. Judging from her smooth communication with the spider and the color-changing silkworm, are you an animal speaker? Insect speaker?
"I'm not a user of attribute abilities." Daisy said with a smile without changing her tone.
"Ah? But you were able to become familiar with them so quickly, Aunt Daisy, you're really amazing!" Josh felt a little sorry and offended.
"Well, as an ordinary person, if you want to make a living, don't you have to work harder? I used to be a breeding apprentice in other big cities, breeding and raising many insect monsters. Mastering the skills to communicate with them is an important part of my job."
"Spiders are all similar when it comes to communication. Most of them have fierce appearances but timid hearts." Daisy looked at these little guys with love in her eyes.
Whether it was true or not, the perception of the monsters was the sharpest, and before long, the spiders were able to pat Aunt Daisy on the head, and the little bread-changing silkworms even treated their burrows as their own home and drilled in and out of them.
At noon, the spiders had to rest and hunt, and Aunt Daisy's meals had to be taken care of by the farm. Josh invited Aunt Daisy to the farm cottage to take a short rest while she prepared lunch.
Daisy, who was used to being busy, had no habit of sitting still and waiting for others to cook. She stood up and insisted on preparing today's lunch with Josh.
There was taro cooked by Josh in the small pot, and there were some dry long bread sticks in the cupboard, but these were a bit too simple to entertain guests.
Josh was wondering whether he should ask the brown-headed vulture to help catch a fish to eat, when he saw Aunt Daisy already starting to peel the taro.
"Aunt Daisy, you don't have to worry. I asked you to teach here. It is my job to prepare lunch for you. You don't need to help me." She quickly stopped him.
"Little Josh, I can't sit idle. If you let me sit outside without moving, I would rather go back to set up the stall." Aunt Daisy was also very persistent.
The two of them were in a stalemate for a minute. "Okay, Aunt Daisy, let's do it together today." Josh compromised helplessly.
"Not today, but every day in the future as long as I keep working here," Daisy emphasized.
"Well, Aunt Daisy, it's really not necessary."
"No Josh, it would make me feel uncomfortable, I like to work."
The two of them peeled the taro together, and the white and tender taro was quickly torn clean.
Looking at the basket of bread that Josh had just taken out of the cupboard, Aunt Daisy's eyes lit up, "Hey Josh, have you ever tried flavored taro puree?"
"Flavored taro paste?" Josh shook his head. There really wasn't any.
"Let me show you. I guarantee it's something you've never tasted before." Aunt Daisy smiled confidently.
Just like that, somehow it became Daisy doing the work while Josh watched.
No, it cannot be said that she was just a bystander. After all, she strictly followed Aunt Daisy's requirements. No matter what fruits she picked or what wild vegetables she dug, she was always there to assist.
But who knew that Aunt Daisy was so nimble and quick, even faster than the little farmer Josh.
With just a quick glance, she knew all the small wild vegetables growing in front of and behind the house.
Looking at Josh's dazed face, Aunt Daisy burst out laughing, "Don't be so shocked. When I first started working as a scavenger, I was extremely poor. In order to save some money on food and stay in the secret space for a few more days, I often only ate these small wild vegetables. I got used to them and I can tell these small vegetables from a distance."
"Rag scavenger? Aunt Daisy, why would you become a rag scavenger?" Josh was a little curious.
"Well, when I was young, when I was an apprentice breeder, I wanted to save money to open a tailor shop of my own and raise a few textile elves of my own. Unfortunately, I am not a person with special abilities, and my family is not well-off. I could not save any money no matter how hard I tried. I was always short of money, and I was bullied by the regular workers every other day."
She looked at Josh and asked, “Do you think I can tolerate this temper?”
Josh shook his head: "No."
"That's right. Later, I couldn't help it, so I kept my work clothes for a long time without washing them. When the foreman found fault with me again, I threw the dirty clothes on his head and ran away. You know, those clothes were all covered with monsters' feces and urine, and they stank to death. It really made me feel better." Daisy recalled the scene and couldn't help laughing again.
"But after I quit my job, I had no income and fell into a difficult situation for a while. At that time, there was a space collision in the city where I was, and the secret space was opened to the outside world uncontrollably. I followed my neighbor who was also a scavenger into the secret space. The undeveloped secret space was really a treasure trove. I earned the first huge sum of money in my life there, 100,000 federal points."
“Wow, that’s amazing!”
"Yeah, now that I think about it, I feel that I was pretty good. I stole countless eggs of some kind of strange beast. The day after I sold those eggs, I stepped into that secret space again. Oh my god, I almost died there. Who knows if the parents of those eggs have woken up? Maybe they were stunned by the huge spatial force when the space collided, or there was some other reason.
Anyway, when I went in for the second time, they found me and a few other egg stealers and attacked us crazily. "
"The secret realm was opened. We could go in, and they could naturally come out. Later, I took advantage of the time when those strange beasts were blocked by the city security guards, boarded the beast cart to Chaoyang City, escaped here, and became a pioneering scavenger."
“And then you settled here and had buns,” Josh added.
"No, no, no," Daisy shook her head, "It's not that simple."
"I became a new apprentice, a textile apprentice."
