Chapter 157: New Vegetables
“Wizards lurking at the high levels is probably not a matter of a day or two. Was it Li Yitian?” Xiao An guessed.
Xiao Huan shook her head. “No. Li Yitian hates this group of superstitious people, the wizards, the most. He doesn’t believe in gods, only in himself. To have him cooperate with wizards is worse than cooperating with Mutants.”
“If it’s not him, who else could it be? This person has hidden himself really well, only to show his true colors now.”
Zhang Can’er turned her gaze to Peng Zezhi. She asked Jin Fengqing in a low voice, “Do you think that forbidden art can be transmitted from person to person?”
Jin Fengqing followed her line of sight, then turned to look at Xiao Huan and asked, “How long have you been with that man?”
Xiao Huan was stunned for a moment, turned to look at Peng Zezhi, and after thinking for a moment, she said, “About half an hour, I think. He came to complain in the morning, and after he finished, I let him go back. After that, Miss Can said she was coming, so I called him over. All together, it’s about half an hour.”
“Then that should be enough. I remember there is a kind of witchcraft that can be transmitted through smell. The level of this kind of wizard is very high, and their strength is very strong. I haven’t seen it for many years.”
“Smell? Transmitting a forbidden art through smell? Are you kidding me?” Xiao Feng said in disbelief.
Not only Xiao Feng, but many people present also didn’t believe it in their hearts. After all, transmitting a forbidden art through smell was a bit too incredible. It didn’t conform to logic at all.
Jin Fengqing was too lazy to talk to her about those things. She shrank into Zhang Can’er’s embrace and squinted her eyes, a lazy look on her face. After just lifting the forbidden art, her mind was greatly consumed and needed sleep to replenish. But in this situation, it seemed that she couldn’t sleep.
Zhang Can’er looked down at the little person. Her originally pink and tender little face was now a little pale. She was also yawning, trying hard not to fall asleep.
She looked up at Xiao Huan and said, “We might not be able to investigate the matter today. Sister Feng and I will take Fengqing back first. Children still need to sleep more.”
Xiao Huan nodded, glanced at the sleepy little ball, a hint of a smile in her eyes. “I’ll notify you when there’s news.”
“Okay.”
When Zhang Can’er took her back to their residence, she saw a woman in a black butler’s uniform standing at their door.
When the woman saw them come back, she curled her lips into a gentle smile. “You must be the sister that the family head mentioned, right?”
Zhang Can’er nodded. “Mhm. And you are?”
“I am the family head’s personal butler.”
“The Jin family’s butler?”
“The young lady’s butler.”
Zhang Can’er squinted her eyes and sized up this woman, then suddenly smiled. “You’re here to pick up Fengqing, right? Don’t worry, she’s definitely better off here with me than in your Jin family.”
The woman was stunned for a moment and didn’t speak for a long while.
Zhang Can’er didn’t plan to talk too much with this person. She felt that the Jin family couldn’t even protect a child, and they were unworthy of the Jin family’s great name. They had also lost the face of the number one assassin organization, the Golden Rope Connection.
After all, the child had called her sister. It was impossible for her to just hand her over, especially when the little person was in her sleep.
The woman didn’t say any more. Instead, she watched as Zhang Can’er and the others entered the house and closed the door. She stood outside for a long time. In the end, she didn’t say another word and turned to leave.
The Jin family had come in a hurry, and many things needed to be arranged by the family head. For the past few days, Jin Fengqing had actually not had a good night’s sleep.
Even after arriving in the Starshine Federation, those assassins would still constantly come looking for her. There were not many people left around the family head. After a round of cleaning, the Jin family was not as good as before, and there were very few people who could be used.
The woman sighed and walked quickly toward the Jin family’s mansion.
At night, Jin Fengqing opened her eyes. She knew that she had been in a safe place, so she had slept very soundly and had a rare good night’s sleep.
Looking at the familiar layout, Jin Fengqing propped herself up and sat up. Only then did she realize that her clothes had been changed, completely changed.
Her little face was instantly ashamed, but she also felt that it was no big deal. Zhang Can’er and Wan Feng were her acknowledged real sisters. It was only normal for them to change their little sister’s clothes.
As a mature child, Jin Fengqing comforted herself like this.
When she saw Zhang Can’er and Wan Feng, she was a little awkward again and didn’t dare to make a sound.
“What are you standing there for? Aren’t you going to eat?”
The fragrance of the food entered her nose, and Jin Fengqing’s little stomach rumbled.
Thinking of the fish she had eaten before, Jin Fengqing swallowed. She moved to the dining table. Wan Feng held her and sat her down on a stool, and also placed a bowl and chopsticks in front of her.
In the small bowl was the most precious white rice in the apocalypse. The clearly defined rice grains emitted their unique rice fragrance, which made Jin Fengqing forget all the rules.
She ate a hearty meal.
After putting down her chopsticks, Jin Fengqing wiped her mouth with a tissue. She looked at Zhang Can’er and asked, “Sister, the food here is much better than in Lingxi. How is this maintained? Are you not short of cattle, sheep, chickens, and ducks? And are there still harvests of vegetables?”
Zhang Can’er ate the scraps from the bowl of fish and smiled. “The farm in the Starshine Federation is not very large, and there is actually not much meat. But I have a lot of vegetables. I have as many as you want. Even a portion of the Federation’s vegetables are from me.”
“Sister’s skill?”
“Mhm-hmm.”
“Oh, speaking of which, I just saw that my creation list has been updated.”
With that, Zhang Can’er took out a cucumber and a tomato.
Shield Cucumber Seeds: Holding the seed can provide a layer of shield for five minutes. One layer of shield can block one attack. If the shield is broken, it can be regenerated within the time limit. Eating the fruit can provide five layers of shield for ten minutes. The inner shield is a golden shield, which can block three heavy attacks and cannot be regenerated. The other four shields can be regenerated. (Increases with level)
Tomato Lava Soup Seeds: Throwing the seed can create a five-meter range of lava soup on the ground for five minutes. Enemies in the circle will be instantly melted and become a part of the soup, which can attract monsters with a keen sense of smell. Throwing the fruit can create a ten-meter range of lava soup on the ground for ten minutes. The taste is more intense, and the damage is also higher. It has no damage to the skill owner and their own personnel. The soup can be eaten. (Increases with level)
After looking at the skill table, she looked at Jin Fengqing with a grin. “Which one do you want to eat?”
Jin Fengqing still found it a bit magical that she could take out vegetables at any time. But she didn’t want to delve into this problem. After all, it was better not to ask what shouldn’t be asked.
“I want to eat both.”
“Okay.”
The cucumber in Zhang Can’er’s hand suddenly became the length of a middle finger, and the width was about the same. When it was handed to Jin Fengqing, Jin Fengqing blinked a few times, but she still chose to believe Zhang Can’er.
She took the cucumber and ate it bite by bite. The fresh fragrance of the cucumber was very strong, much stronger than the ones she had eaten before. The taste was also sweeter. People who didn’t like cucumbers would probably not be able to eat it.
