Chapter 3: Chapter 3: Searching Crew, Farm and a Knock at 3 am

Massive. T was glad together with his new buddy. I may inform by the way in which he croaked to me.

“What a cutie,” I mentioned.

However Massive. F could not keep exterior. It was too harmful for a fish to be there. He wasn’t pretty much as good at defending himself as Massive. T.

I made him an aquarium inside my tiny cabin. It took up among the area, which was already scarce, however at the least Massive. F was secure.

The solar had set by the point I acquired again, and the employees had been gone, however I may see their progress by way of the window: some supplies scattered within the lot, logs, and the bottom of the buildings.

It had been solely a day, however I used to be fairly impressed with how briskly they labored. Based mostly on my calculations, it might take them a month to complete every part.

My abdomen growled with starvation, and the dinner for that night time was fish. I will not lie. I felt a bit responsible cleansing the fish whereas taking a look at Massive. F. They weren’t his family members or something, however seeing his face watching me made me uneasy.

I needed to eat, and it was not like I had many choices to select from.

“Massive. F, I promise I will eat much less fish as soon as my farm begins producing crops. Okay?” I whispered to him.

I may swear he nodded again. The starvation was actually messing with my head.

Anyway, after cleansing the fish it was time to prepare dinner them, and for that I used my wooden range! It did not take lengthy for the aroma of cooked fish to fill the room and escape exterior!

However I anticipated my system to say one thing about cooking, but it didn’t present. Possibly I used to be lacking one thing?

The scent was so tempting that Massive. T jumped on my window, taking a look at me and Massive. F.

“Croak. Croak.”

He wished to come back in, and naturally I let him. Massive. T had been my good buddy because the starting, so why would I say no to him?

I opened the window, and he immediately hopped on my shoulder. Lovable.

Whereas I cooked the fish, Massive. T hunted the mosquitoes and different bugs that had been flying close to my oil lamp. He was a useful boy.

All of us ate collectively that night time, and Massive T returned to his effectively afterward, leaving solely me and Massive F. I turned off all of the lights and went to mattress, sleeping like a child.

The one purpose I wakened was due to the noise coming from exterior. The employees I employed weren’t slacking off, arriving for work nearly earlier than daybreak.

Massive. F was in his aquarium. I gave him a number of worms, after which headed again to the river.

Was I going to fish extra? No, in fact not. I needed to take a bathe!

The entire reincarnation factor was so new and thrilling that I forgot to bathe because the first day I got here to this world!

I used to be glad that Massive. T and Massive. F, my two true pals, did not thoughts my scent.

I walked by way of the close by forest with ease. There have been hardly any harmful animals inside, and people who had been harmful posed no menace to me.

As a 3rd layer Qi Condensation cultivator, I may deal with them.

The river was the rationale Riverside acquired its identify. It was so large that it was arduous to identify different folks whereas bathing.

Nonetheless, regardless of being early, I seemed for a secluded spot, checking the world a number of occasions earlier than taking off my garments and coming into the river.

The water was chilly as a result of the solar hadn’t warmed it up but, but it surely felt good. It was stress-free and refreshing. The sensation of washing off all of the dust from my physique was fantastic.

I promised myself I might by no means go that lengthy with out showering once more. Heck, with all of the guide labor, I ought to bathe on daily basis!

The climate in Riverside was nice. Not too chilly and never too scorching. I did not know if it was the season, or perhaps my physique was extra immune to the atmosphere, however I cherished it both manner.

After cleansing myself, I went to Riverside. Solely then did I understand that I had just one set of garments, and that was an enormous downside.

Fortunately for me, the small village of Riverside had a tailor and a service provider who bought some clothes.

I spoke with the tailor, who was an older girl with a mild smile, and ordered some good robes, however they might take a while to complete. So I spoke with the service provider and acquired some atypical garments.

Nonetheless, it was good to have extra garments, in order that I may lastly wash those I used to be carrying. I nonetheless had no thought what I might use to scrub them, although.

“So that you’re the brand new face round right here,” a mature-looking man mentioned to me as I walked within the village’s streets.

The person wore a leather-based armor and had a bow behind his again. He seemed like a hunter. What caught my consideration was that he was not a mortal however a primary layer Qi Condensation cultivator!

He could not inform my stage as a result of he was too weak to take action, however I used to be stunned to see one other cultivator within the space.

I appreciated him. If he was in Riverside it meant he selected a special path from everybody else, so he was man.

“Sure, that is me. And you’re the hunter?” I mentioned.

He laughed, taking a look at his personal garments. “Is it that apparent?”

“Yeah, fairly apparent.”

I did not suppose somebody would cease to speak to me with out having an ulterior motive. Why did this hunter all of the sudden wish to speak to me?

My intestine feeling was proper.

“I used to be questioning you probably have any curiosity in studying find out how to hunt. My looking crew wants a brand new member,” he mentioned.

There it was. A traditional individual would simply settle for the provide and be glad to assist the village with the meals provide, however I used to be not a traditional individual.

Why ought to I be a part of one thing with out getting one thing in return?

Properly, I might be a part of anyway due to my curiosity. I wished to see if my system would work with looking.

However I could not make it that straightforward for him.

“What’s in it for me? I do not lack cash or else I would not purchase the land,” I mentioned.

The person checked out me with half-closed eyes and mentioned, “What would you like?”

I simply wished to go, however pretended to suppose arduous about it.

“Are you able to assist me promote the pelts from the looking? I need you to purchase them at a better value than the opposite retailers.”

If my system labored with looking, then perhaps I may get higher-grade pelts, and people had been price some huge cash! Relying on the grade, even cultivators would need them.

“Is that every one? No downside.”

The person accepted the provide, and I used to be glad due to it.

“How does the looking works then? Do you go on a regular basis or what? I’ve different issues to take care of,” I mentioned.

I wasn’t mendacity. The day was simply beginning, and my preliminary plan was to start out my farm. The earlier, the higher.

“Some folks from the looking group do go on a regular basis, however you anybody can go at anytime, so don’t fret about it. Simply go once you’re free,” he mentioned.

“Marvelous!” n/)o–v/)e/)l-.B(.1-.n

Nobody appreciated being bonded to one thing, so I used to be happy with the carefree side of that looking group. It was not just like the village was poor and struggling with meals issues.

That they had cows, chickens, plantations, and traded issues with close by villages. It was a easy place but one which was good with its villagers.

After talking with that man in regards to the looking factor, I headed again to my plot of land, grabbing my hoe, and beginning my farm!

The very first thing I selected to plant was potatoes. Potatoes had been nutritious and simple to promote. Additionally they grew quick, often inside 90 to 120 days.

That was below regular circumstances. With the assistance of my Qi, and perhaps my system if it labored as I hoped, the expansion can be a lot quicker.

So I dug some rows with my hoe, and made a fence round my potato area to forestall anybody from stepping on it accidentally.

The one factor left was to plant the potatoes, and as quickly as I touched them, a notification popped up in entrance of my eyes!

[Farming Level 1]

[Anything you plant has a chance of becoming a Spiritual Herb.]

Sure! That was precisely what I wished. A Religious Herb was a uncommon treasure within the cultivation world. One thing arduous to search out and valuable to alchemists who may flip them into tablets.

With my system, getting a inventory of Religious Herbs was only a matter of time.

“Possibly I ought to discover ways to make tablets too,” I muttered.

The fishing a part of my system confirmed me the share, however the farming half didn’t. Was it even decrease than the fishing one? I had no clue, however contemplating the massive plot of land I had, I used to be sure to get a Religious Herb eventually. It could not not occur.

So I acquired busy planting potatoes, carrots, cabbages, and herbs for cooking. Whereas the villagers constructed three extra homes on my property, I created my farms!

It gave the place a beautiful look. My small home on a hill with a country effectively subsequent to it. Some crops in entrance of the home, a forest round it with a river close by.

The entire place gave me a peaceable feeling, significantly better than that room I wakened in. Simply fascinated by all of the crap I must cope with within the sect made me sick.

I tended to my farm and land for 2 weeks in blissful tranquility. Me, Massive F and Massive T loved each second of our peace till one thing occurred.

Somebody knocked on my door at night time. I used to be startled. It was raining exterior and the darkness inside my tiny cabin did not assist both.

I walked towards the door with my fists prepared, making ready for a struggle.
