Chapter 17: Snake Grass Needles, the Real Treasure

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The next day, Li Zheng woke up to a series of chirping.

He looked at the time. It was already past ten in the morning.

Perhaps it was because he was too tired yesterday, but Li Zheng, who had a regular routine, slept in.

“Chirp, chirp, chirp!”

Chirpy flapped its wings and puffed up its face, clearly unhappy that Li Zheng only just woke up

“Are you hungry?”

After listening to Chirpy’s complaints for a while, Li Zheng finally concluded it was hungry.

“If you’re hungry, just eat. Don’t we still have a lot of ginseng flowers and honey fruit?”

Li Zheng mumbled as he got up to take two ginseng flowers and handed them to Chirpy.

“Here, eat.”

After saying that, Li Zheng opened the trading room. After searching, he realized that the small water purifier had been sold.

“Forget it. Since it’s already been traded, there’s no need for me to meddle in other people’s business. Let’s see how the deal with the meat from yesterday is going. If there are enough parts, I’ll try to craft the gravity shoes.”

Looking through his listings, the 30 pieces of toxic terror bat meat had been sold, so was the 50 milliliters of poisonous blood.

On the other hand, there was still one piece of non-toxic terror bat meat left.

Li Zheng was dumbfounded.

“Damn!”

Looking at the buyers’ information, he realized that they were not the same person. They were all from different channels and different countries.

However, the trading time was all around six in the morning.

“What happened this morning? Were these people crazy? Poisonous flesh can’t be eaten, yet they bought so much?”

“Eh?”

Li Zheng found a few familiar names among the buyers’ information. They were all active in the chatroom.

Feng Shan and Zhan Zhouzhou were among them.

“Let me ask them.”

He opened the private chat interface. Because the players had “Do Not Disturb” mode activated by default when they were sleeping, his private chat was empty.

“What happened this morning? Why didn’t you buy the normal meat instead of the poisonous ones?”

In less than 30 seconds after the private message was sent, Feng Shan sent a bunch of messages.

“F*ck, you’re finally up!”

“Quick, do you still have the poisonous meat? Give me more!”

“I’m telling you, you’ve suffered a great loss this time!”

“You don’t know? You were probably still sleeping at that time. A guy called William or something scolded you on the world channel.”

“He said you’re an unscrupulous merchant who sold poisonous blood and meat. Clearly, you had bad intentions.”

“But he reminded us of something.”

“He is a brainless idiot. He only realized that players would die after eating poisonous meat, but he didn’t think that the creatures in the matrix would also die if they ate them!”

“I thought I was fast enough, so I told others about that, but a bunch of animals were even faster than me!”

“After I told them, I immediately opened the trading room.”

“I thought my hands were fast.”

“But some were faster than me!”

“I only managed to get one piece of meat!”

“Please!”

“My dear brother, please give me two more pieces of poisonous meat!”

Looking at the messages that Feng Shan had sent over in just a minute, Li Zheng started scratching his head frantically.

There was too much information, and he didn’t know where to start.

First, Williamheld a grudge against him ever since he bought the small water purifier with the smell of urine.

This morning, he had used the speaker to appeal to the players to attack Li Zheng.

However, because he was too stupid, he didn’t discover the real use of the poisonous meat. Instead, he gave a hint to those who hadn’t had time to look at the trading room.

“Eh? It seems like I didn’t think of using the poisonous meat against the creatures too…”

Li Zheng suddenly realized.

“I’m actually an idiot?”

Secondly, Li Zheng realized that the most valuable item from yesterday’s harvest wasn’t the silver-grade flame flower.

Instead, it was the snake grass needle, which was the most unremarkable among the crops at that time!

When he turned to look at the mountain of snake grass needles, Li Zheng felt as if he was looking at a gold mountain!

They were all treasures!

Over 30,000 snake grass needles!

The third realization hurt Li Zheng the most.

He recalled the time when he was dealing with the terror bats yesterday. He had used a total of 40 snake grass needles, but only 15 of them had hit the terror bats.

Li Zheng’s heart was bleeding.

That was a total of 25 snake grass needles wasted!

If one snake grass needle could kill a terror bat, that meant he lost 50 pieces of poisonous terror bat meat! And 1,250 milliliters of terror bat blood!

“Ah, my heart hurts so much…”

“No, I can’t be the only one feeling this!”

Li Zheng sent a message to Feng Shan, “since you bought a piece of poisoned meat, have you tried it? How’s the effect?”

Very soon, Feng Shan replied.

“Amazing!”

“Your products are definitely high-quality!”

“I used two pieces of toxic meat to lure a bronze-grade two-tailed carrion wolf. After eating it, it began to vomit blood. As it vomited blood, it chased after me.”

“That…was exciting!”

“That was the first time I’ve killed a bronze-grade creature so easily.”

“It’s a pity that after the wolf was killed, its meat had no poison.”

“Please take pity on me and reward me with two more pieces of poisonous meat.”

Li Zheng looked at Feng Shan, who was constantly being flattered by others in the chat, acting so humble in front of him. A wicked smile appeared on his face again.

[“Snake grass needle.”]

Li Zheng sent a message to him about the snake grass needles.

“???”

“What’s this? Unknown toxicity?”

Li Zheng looked at Feng Shan’s message in surprise. He realized that the description about the snake grass needles they saw was different.

[Snake grass needle. Bronze-grade. Material/ammunition.]

[Leaves of mature snake grass. Poisonous. Black-iron-grade genetically-modified creatures will die when hit by it. Can cause great damage to bronze-grade creatures.]

“The poisonous meat you bought is from the decomposition of the terror bats killed by the snake grass needles.”

Li Zheng explained to Feng Shan.

Then, Feng Shan became even more excited.

“!!!”

“Good stuff!”

“Sell some to me!”

“I’m begging on my knees!”

He was hooked.

Li Zheng smiled even more wickedly. “How many do you want?”

Feng Shan said without hesitation, “I’ll take as many as you have, name your price!”

Ha, he’s quite generous.

“Snake grass needle x36927”

Li Zheng then sent the amount he had to Feng Shan.

“…”

“F*ck!”

Seeing that he had achieved his goal, Li Zheng quickly blacklisted Feng Shan and rejected all forms of communication. He set a time limit of twelve hours.

“I feel so relaxed now…”

After messing with Fengshan, Li Zheng closed the interface and prepared to craft the gravity shoes. After that, he would begin the day’s exploration.

However, he immediately saw Chirpy holding two ginseng flowers, flying in front of him.

“Chirp, chirp.”

Seeing that he had regained his senses, it handed him a ginseng flower.

“Oh?”

Li Zheng immediately understood what it meant.

“Do you want to eat with me?”

“Chirp!”

It nodded.

“Alright,” he said.

Li Zheng revealed a happy smile and said to Chirpy, “then let’s eat every meal together.”

“Chirp, chirp, chirp…”

Chirpy flew over and rubbed its face against Li Zheng’s cheek before landing on his open palm. It then started eating its breakfast in peace.

Li Zheng also picked up the ginseng flower it had given him and bit into it. The rich milk aroma filled and happiness instantly enveloped Li Zheng’s heart.
