Chapter 89: Crystal Mall
On the way, Sang Ye met Huanhuan.
She pulled him out of the swamp of despair.
Lin Huanhuan stood on tiptoes and kissed the corner of his mouth. “I believe you.”
Sang Ye suddenly hugged her tightly.
He buried his face in her neck.
Lin Huanhuan felt her neck turn wet with warm liquid.
Her heart melted, and she wrapped her arms around his waist.
…
The heavy rain lasted for three days and two nights.
With his powerful self-healing ability and the effects of Huanhuan’s blood, Sang Ye completely recovered on the third day. On the other hand, the pitiful Huanhuan fell sick because she had lost too much blood and her emotions had fluctuated too much.
She was ordered to lie in bed and rest. She was not allowed to get out of bed until she recovered.
Bai Di stayed at home to take care of her. Shuang Yun went down the mountain to take care of the vegetables and fruits in the field. Sang Ye returned to the swamp alone to look for the clothes he had left there. He also cleaned up the scene so that no one would find any traces of the oracles.
Lin Huanhuan lay in bed in boredom. The long-awaited system notification suddenly rang in her mind.
“Ding! System No. 438 has been upgraded! The Crystal Mall is now officially open!”
Lin Huanhuan immediately perked up. “Little Brat, you’ve finally leveled up!”
System 438: “Why the hell are you calling me Little Brat?!”
“That’s your nickname. If you don’t like it, I can change it. How about Big Brat?”
System 438: “You can call me by my full name.”
“You don’t like being called System Big Brat?”
Although System 438 didn’t understand what that meant, it could guess from the host’s tone that it wasn’t anything good. Hence, it wisely chose not to ask. “You can call me Little System.”
“The term brat is usually used to refer to naughty children…” Huanhuan’s tone suddenly became very meaningful.
System 438 was silent for a moment, then it decided to give up struggling. “You can just call me Little Brat.”
“Bah, I’m not going to call you Little Brat. It’s not like you’re my child. Don’t try to take advantage of me!”
System 438: “…”
Lin Huanhuan waited for a while, but there was no response. She couldn’t help but poke it. “Why aren’t you saying anything? Chat with me. I’m so bored now!”
The system still said nothing.
It was only when Huanhuan asked about the function of the Crystal Mall that System 438 finally spoke again.
“Host, you can use crystals to exchange for goods in the mall.”
Lin Huanhuan quickly asked, “What goods are there?”
“Host, your level is low now. You can only exchange your crystals for two beginner plant seeds. They are sunflower seeds and long bean seeds.”
Lin Huanhuan was very surprised. She did not expect to see sunflowers and long beans in this world!
She asked the price of the two seeds.
System 438 said, “You only need to use low-grade crystals to exchange for beginner plant seeds.”
Lin Huanhuan had earned a lot of colorless crystals from selling vegetables. She didn’t know if the things the seeds planted would be the sunflowers and long beans she had seen in her previous life. To be safe, she only exchanged crystals for ten sunflower seeds and ten long bean seeds.
Shuang Yun returned with a large bag of fish and prawns.
“The rain in the past few days has filled the pond. Many fish and prawns came overflowing out of the pond. I caught some big ones and threw the rest back into the pond.”
Bai Di said, “We can eat fish hotpot today.”
Upon hearing that there would be delicious food, Huanhuan and Shuang Yun drooled.
Huanhuan handed the 20 seeds to Shuang Yun and instructed him to find a sunny place to plant them.
Shuang Yun said, “No problem. Leave this to me!”
Sang Ye found his clothes.
Lin Huanhuan looked at the robe on his body and couldn’t help but ask, “What material are these clothes made of?”
“It’s shark silk, a specialty of the merfolk. Do you like it? I can make it into a dress for you.”
Lin Huanhuan quickly waved her hand. “No need. I’m just curious.”
Thinking of the clothes on the birds, Lin Huanhuan couldn’t help but ask, “Are the clothes on the birds also made of shark silk?”
“No. When the birds reach adulthood, they change their feathers three times. They collect the feathers that fall and weave them into feather clothes, which are what they wear. The birds only have one feather robe in their lives, so they cherish their clothes.”
“I see…”
Lin Huanhuan recuperated at home for two days and finally completely recovered.
Bai Di and Sang Ye took care of the vegetable fields. Shuang Yun began to train the male beasts and tried his best to increase their combat strength.
Lin Huanhuan squatted beside the vegetable field and saw that the sunflowers and long beans had sprouted.
The young green leaves were very cute.
She couldn’t resist touching a leaf with her finger. The little leaf seemed to tremble immediately as if in response.
Huanhuan found two sticks and inserted them beside the long beans. She made a simple wooden frame so that the long beans could grow along the wooden frame.
The heavy rain a few days ago had flooded many places. Fortunately, they were on higher ground here, and with the help of the canal, the vegetable fields and fruit forests were spared. Unfortunately, many of the seedlings were smashed. Bai Di and Sang Ye picked out the broken seedlings and threw them away before planting them again.
Three days later, it was time for the market again.
Huanhuan’s family had just placed the vegetables and fruits when many beasts rushed over.
In addition to the rabbit beasts, there were many other races, such as sheeps, bulls, pigs, deers… Huanhuan even saw kangaroos!
They were all here to buy vegetables and fruits.
The last time they bought vegetables and fruits from Huanhuan’s house, they all said that they were especially delicious when they went back. Unfortunately, they did not buy much and the produce was quickly eaten up. They had no choice but to hold back their cravings and work hard to find herbs. When the market opened, they swarmed over!
Dong Ya tried his best to squeeze through the group of tall beasts and shouted with difficulty, “I-I want to buy cabbage sprouts, field mustard, and sweet fruits!”
The other beasts were also shouting, “I want to buy field mustard too!”
“I want fragrant and crispy fruits!”
“I want cabbage sprouts! I came first! You have to sell them to me first!”
“I was here first!”
…
Just as they were about to fight, Bai Di suddenly released the pressure of a four-starred soul beast.
Many beasts’ hearts skipped a beat, and they all shut up.
The noisy scene was instantly silent.
Bai Di’s aura was terrifying, but his tone was still calm. “If you want to buy something, please queue up. If anyone dares to cut the line or cause trouble, I don’t mind adding another meat dish to tonight’s dinner.”
The beasts were too frightened to say anything else. Dong Ya was the smartest. Before anyone could react, he stood first in the group.
