Chapter 294: Chapter 286: Dragon Whisker Grass and Ancient Kelp

As Han Qiwu got closer, he realized that these large bees were not cliff bees.

Their body color was darker than that of cliff bees, their frames larger, and the noise they made in flight was also greater.

"Could it be ancient bees?" Han Qiwu was a bit surprised as he walked over to the first beehive he had discovered and began to observe.

After a while, he noticed that there were roughly two types of bees here: the original small black bees and these large bees.

After flipping through the logs for a whole five minutes, Han Qiwu finally found the record.

[The queen bee has absorbed the ancient bee’s sting and started producing ancient bees, doubling the honey gathering range of the small black bees, while the gathering range of ancient bees is unlimited]

Indeed, they were ancient bees.

Han Qiwu had a bit of a headache because these ancient bees had a vast honey-gathering range.

Let’s wait and see if the newly brewed honey shows significant changes in a few days. If there isn’t much change, leave it as is; if there’s a considerable impact, then we might have to find a way to cover the mutated Xiao Wang flowers.

Moreover, Han Qiwu was vaguely looking forward to something.

What if it brews into stinky tofu-flavored honey?

That stinky yet fragrant taste should be quite interesting, right?

Thinking about it, Han Qiwu headed towards Jilei Mountain to feed the livestock.

After just a couple of steps, he spotted two grass plants resembling serpents out of the corner of his eye.

"What is this?" Han Qiwu grew curious and walked over.

As he got closer, the names of the two plants popped out.

[Dragon Whisker Grass]

[Usage: Feed for various livestock]

[Special Effect - Ripening Acceleration: Speeds up the development of juvenile livestock when consumed]

[Special Effect - Dragon Transformation: Dragon Whisker Grass has a moderate probability of transforming surrounding ordinary wild grass into Dragon Whisker Grass]

[Note: Its appearance is very majestic]

"So it’s Dragon Whisker Grass. Just today marks its maturity. Its appearance is indeed majestic." Han Qiwu reached out and picked one, discovering the grass was vividly styled with an artistic abstraction, with even a faint outline of dragon horns discernible.

Next to these two Dragon Whisker Grass plants, several wild grasses were slowly transforming into Dragon Whisker Grass, with their forms changing.

Han Qiwu thought for a moment, circled the courtyard, and discovered the dragon transformation ability of Dragon Whisker Grass was quite strong.

Initially, he had only purchased ten Dragon Whisker Grass seeds, and now there were over thirty fully transformed Dragon Whisker Grass plants in the courtyard.

This doesn’t even count the dozens of plants currently undergoing transformation into Dragon Whisker Grass.

That’s enough for the little cows to eat.

Han Qiwu picked fifteen Dragon Whisker Grass and walked over to the chopping knife in Jilei Mountain. After setting them up, he gave a strong chop.

"Kacha"

The sound of it was extraordinarily satisfying!

After finishing up, Han Qiwu distributed the grass one by one to the little cows.

Originally, he wasn’t going to give any to the Kui Niu.

This fellow had already grown up, couldn’t produce milk, and it felt like a waste if it ate.

But watching the Kui Niu stare at the grass in his hand with a pitiful expression, Han Qiwu couldn’t bear it.

He walked over and let it sniff the Dragon Whisker Grass scent on his hand.

To help stimulate its appetite.

Kui Niu: "????"

The bewildered Kui Niu looked up at the sky and bellowed.

The sound of thunder rumbled.

[Kui Niu Special Effect - Thunderous Voice Triggered, Current Crop Yield of Farm Increased by 15%]

Seeing the system’s prompt, Han Qiwu cheerfully handed over the Dragon Whisker Grass.

"Thanks for the hard work, now eat up."

Sometimes, if you don’t push a cow, it doesn’t realize what’s going on.

After feeding these cows, Han Qiwu went inside the house, took a sip of water to rest, then walked to the storage, grabbed some supplies, and cycled to the secret realm.

Time to earn some money by fishing!

And maybe gather some scrap wood.

These past few days, the axe upgrade was completed. Besides the Little Prince’s osmanthus wood harvest, another vital wood harvest for the house is the recycling machine.

The scrap wood accumulated from previous fishing trips had mostly been used up, turning into quite a bit of timber.

Let’s go!

At the entrance to the secret realm, Han Qiwu parked his bike and gently pushed the reef.

[Today’s available stay time: 1 hour]

"One hour, not bad." Han Qiwu quickly walked inside, bypassed the secret realm trade point without buying anything, and quietly headed to check the beach situation.

Hmm, the weather was calm.

The giant nautilus had gone away.

Before fishing, Han Qiwu walked over to the nearby crab cages and pulled them up with effort.

"It’s been two or three days now; the yield should be pretty good." Han Qiwu anticipated pulling them up eagerly.

[Scrap Wood] x1.

Han Qiwu: "...."

Keep pulling.

[Scrap Wood] x1.

.....

All Han Qiwu harvested was scrap wood until he reached the last two crab cages.

"Actually, it’s not so bad; just think of it as stockpiling wood." Han Qiwu consoled himself as he reached to pull up the second-to-last crab cage.

As soon as he touched it, Han Qiwu spotted a crab inside.

At first glance, it seemed to be a green crab, entirely emerald, and quite large.

[Butter Crab] x1

"Butter Crab? Such luck?" Han Qiwu was slightly surprised and hurriedly took out the Butter Crab from the storage to examine it against the light.

Sure enough, its joints showed translucent butter-like substance, which was quite delightful. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

[Butter Crab]

[Stamina +150]

[Health +120]

[Note: One in ten thousand]

Butter crabs were essentially green crabs but very rare; they only formed when green crabs were stimulated, causing the crab roe in the body to decompose into golden oil, permeating throughout.

"Tonight I can eat well." Han Qiwu chuckled and continued to pull up the last crab cage.

This time, the crab cage was unusually heavy. As soon as it emerged from the water, it revealed deep green leaves that wavered slightly with the ocean’s movement.

It was a large piece of kelp.

[Ancient Kombu]

[Usage: Vegetarian Fish Food/Carnivore Fish Food]

[Lifespan: 120 days]

[Feeding Capacity: Feeds up to 20 fish fry]

[Usage Method: Use by placing into the fishpond]

[Special Effect - Adaptation: Kelp can grow in most environments]

[Note: Ancient Kombu can survive in seawater for over a hundred years]

"Kombu? Kelp?" Han Qiwu laughed and didn’t dwell on the name of the thing.

Whatever it was, as long as it could be used as fish food, it was good!

Moreover, looking at the special effects of Ancient Kombu, they perfectly matched the complex conditions of his family’s fishpond.

Kelp truly is a great thing.

Today’s luck seems quite good, with great gains from the crab cages too.

In a good mood, Han Qiwu directly bought a heap of crab bait, placed them one by one, and tossed them into the sea.

Time to fish.

Sitting by the shore, Han Qiwu donned a straw raincoat and fisherman’s hat, happily flicking his fishing rod into the water.

Fifty minutes later.

A thrilled Han Qiwu sprinted past the secret realm trade point and promptly sold out all his catches, including the Golden Chef Sharks and Swordfish.

[From the trade, you earned 19,566 gold]

With a quick glance at the system notification, Han Qiwu swiftly left the secret realm with a smile on his face.

Having money sure feels good.
