Farming Games are All About Grinding

As for the whereabouts of the other white cogongrass roots, there's no need to say more.

They must have all been eaten by this guy!

"Chomp chomp"

The meaty chicken in the water struggled a few times, saw that Han Qiwu was unmoved, and gave up the performance, skillfully swimming to the shore.

As a bird, it's one thing not to be able to fly, but not knowing how to swim? That's a no-go.

This is a basic skill!

After climbing ashore, the meaty chicken hadn't realized its trick had been seen through, and still put on a pitiful face as it approached Han Qiwu.

"You picked so many white cogongrass roots today? That must've been tough on you." Han Qiwu said with a smile.

The meaty chicken quickly nodded and pointed to the Wutong beside it, putting on a tired look.

Master, I'm tired and want to go in to rest!

Han Qiwu glanced and knowingly asked, "Do you want to stay inside the Wutong?"

"Cluck cluck." The meaty chicken quickly nodded.

Han Qiwu shook his head reluctantly, "That's not possible. I was planning to buy a new little rooster to put in there. From now on, you'll stay in the tree. You seem quite energetic these days."

"Crash"

Han Qiwu's words were like a bolt from the blue, directly striking the meaty chicken's head.

What did Master just say?

He's going to buy a new little rooster to put in there???

No!

This can't be true!!!

"It's just that I see you've been working so hard these days. Going back to sleep is too much trouble, so later, I'll make you a nest so you can rest well in the tree." Han Qiwu laughed as he patted the meaty chicken's head.

Heh, trying to play tricks with me?

I won't scare you to death!

Without you, little meaty chicken, do you think I won't get any eggs?

"Cluck cluck cluck!!!"

The meaty chicken frantically bounced on the spot, suddenly realizing, "Master isn't letting me go back to sleep because he's worried I'm too tired from working day and night? But I'm not tired at all! I have to clarify this."

Even if I'm punished, I must dissuade Master from the idea of buying a new little rooster!

It quickly hugged Han Qiwu's leg and started gesturing.

I'm not tired. I've been resting all day!

I didn't pick those cogongrass roots!

They were all picked by Little Prince and Little Shui.

To reduce the difficulty of explanation, it even ran over to eat the one root it brought back and placed the rest beside Little Prince.

Pear syrup!

"Ah, so you've been slacking off all day? That really disappoints me." Han Qiwu shook his head in mock disappointment.

"Cluck cluck cluck!!!"

The meaty chicken pointed to the spot of white cogongrass roots, gesturing a two-hand motion, indicating it could double the amount of roots it brings back tomorrow!

Making up for the mistakes.

Not only that, it even climbed up the tree and wrapped itself in branches and leaves.

Pear syrup!

Don't bring back a little rooster!

"Alright then, since you're showing such a good attitude, I'll give you a chance. I'll watch your performance tomorrow." Han Qiwu waved his hand.

Little fellow, I can't handle you?

Watching the whole process, Little Prince shook his head and imparted wisdom to Little Shui, pointing to the meaty chicken.

Never deceive the Master, the one who suffers will always be you.

Little Shui obediently shook her head.

I won't deceive Master!

After dealing with the meaty chicken, Han Qiwu came over to pick up Little Shui. After inspecting her carefully, he noticed that a third of her claws had turned into a bone-gold color, looking very noble.

Smoothing her fur for a while, Han Qiwu took out the evolution fruit and said to Little Shui, "Little Shui, this is the evolution fruit, and it contains the power of water. Eating it might cause you some pain, are you willing to eat it?"

Little Shui's eyes lit up immediately, she quickly nodded, recognizing this fruit, as little brother Electric had eaten it before!

Eating it would make her stronger!

Little Shui also wanted to eat it!

"Then eat it slowly." Han Qiwu placed Little Shui on the ground and handed her the evolution fruit.

The evolution fruit looked quite appealing; it was dark gray with a splash mark on it, about the size of an apple.

"Squee squee!"

Little Shui exclaimed happily, rolling over to gobble up the evolution fruit.

In less than a minute, she had finished the evolution fruit.

Then, nothing happened.

Han Qiwu: "????"

Little Shui: "Squee squee squee!"

Han Qiwu squatted down and picked up Little Shui, turning her over multiple times, feeling quite puzzled.

Could it be a fake fruit?

That shouldn't be.

"Squee squee squee."

Suddenly, Little Shui wriggled out of Han Qiwu's arms, scurried back to her nest to grab the bone-gold giant claw, and leaped into the Hospital River.

Soon, a water bubble centered around Little Shui slowly emerged from the Hospital River.

[Your aquatic pet, Little Shui, is evolving and is expected to take 12 hours]

It's happening.

It seems the evolution fruit just takes a bit of time to kick in.

"Roar roar."

Seeing Little Shui enjoying a good fruit, Little Prince standing nearby was displeased, rushing over to hug Han Qiwu and growled twice.

"What are you growling about! You're already so strong, why do you need more fruit." Han Qiwu smacked Little Prince's bear paw and jumped to the ground.

"Boo hoo"

Little Prince, not knowing from whom he had learned it, after hearing this, raised his hand and pretended to wipe his tears.

The little one is hurting inside.

Seeing this, Han Qiwu had a thought, retrieving a honey jar and placing it on the stone table, pointing to the space behind the side room, "Little Prince, if you can dig a pit the same length, width, and height as you back there, this jar of delicious honey will be yours."

"Roar!"

Seeing there was honey to eat, Little Prince immediately rushed to the back of the side room and started digging.

"Just right, the house needs a cellar dug anyway. If today's small goal can be achieved, the total cost of this cellar should be between four to six jars of honey." Han Qiwu nodded satisfactorily, handing Little Prince a shovel, "Use this, it's faster."

Surprisingly, Little Prince neither turned back nor accepted the shovel, using his large bear paws to dig rapidly, even faster than using a shovel.

"Be careful not to hurt your hands," Han Qiwu cautioned before grabbing an axe and heading to the big osmanthus tree, using skills to hasten its growth while chopping away.

Half an hour later, Little Prince, squatting by the Hospital River, washed his hands and happily took the honey to enjoy.

Han Qiwu jumped down into the pit to take a look, feeling quite pleased with what he saw.

Little Prince's efficiency was indeed impressive.

Putting away the axe, he returned to the house, took a shower, and lay comfortably on the bed, picking up "The Circus Without Horses" to read.

He had originally planned to copy down some interesting passages from the book, but after reading so much, he hadn't found any suitable sections, so he decided to hurry and finish reading it to move to the next one.

Outside, the meaty chicken glanced at the Wutong, pondering how to bring back more white cogongrass roots tomorrow.

It wanted to return home!

Inside, half an hour later, Han Qiwu casually placed the book beside him, tilted his head, and fell into a deep sleep.
