When the female supporting role has a beauty system

Chapter 1274 Farm Owner 27
Chen Xiaojun, with his dog-like nose, exclaimed, "Brown sugar steamed buns? So sweet!"

He never stood on ceremony with Tan You, devouring a brown sugar steamed bun in just a few bites. Li Yong did the same; the two of them leaned against the motorcycle and finished off a bag of steamed buns and two roasted sweet potatoes.

Tan You handed over a glass of water at the right moment: "Cleanse your mouth, I'll treat you to grapes in a few days."

“Okay,” Chen Xiaojun’s eyes sparkled, “Can I eat raisins from now on?”

Li Yong slapped Chen Xiaojun on the back of the head: "You look like a raisin to me. Alright, we need to hurry back. You should go inside too, it's too cold outside."

"By the way, Mu Nan is currently trying to plant those lychee seeds..." Li Yong hesitated for a moment before saying it anyway. He was a soldier, and naturally leaned towards the legion.

However, Mu Nan felt uneasy about using Tan You's lychee seeds to induce labor without telling her, as if he were betraying a friend.

Tan You chuckled: "I don't mind. In fact, I've tried to grow them, but so far they've only produced ordinary lychees. If Mu Nan can grow mutated lychees, that would be a good thing, as it would benefit more people."

Tan You never thought that having something that others don't is a good thing. In life and in work, it's best to be just a little better than others. Possessing great treasures without strong capabilities will only attract endless covetousness in the end.

If Mu Nan can really grow mutated lychees, Tan You might even have to thank him. With him sharing the firepower, there will be fewer people watching her.

Don't think she's unaware of her online obscurity just because she doesn't leave the farm. She's just lurking online, not living in complete isolation. Tan You understands she's highly sought after, but because she's low-key and rarely goes out, those schemes can't reach her.

If someone from the Third Army Corps were to stand in front of her, Tan You would be happy to see it happen; the best food is best enjoyed in its own bowl.

Li Yong couldn't help but admire Tan You's magnanimity. From the time he met Tan You until now, she had always acted in the same way: magnanimous and never petty. Her way of dealing with people was nothing like that of a young girl; she was as mature as an adult.

Considering that she has lived alone for so long, Li Yong can understand. A child without the protection of elders naturally has to think very carefully about every aspect.

Chen Xiaojun watched as Tan You pushed the motorcycle into the farm, then stepped onto Li Yong's vehicle. Li Yong turned the handlebars, and the motorcycle quickly disappeared into the darkness.

After pushing the motorcycle to the shed, Tan You went into the kitchen. Now that she had a vehicle, getting around would be much more convenient. However, in the wasteland world, it was best to avoid going out if possible, especially since she was all alone and quite fragile.

Anyway, whatever she needs, she can just tell Minister Huang, and he'll bring it over for her when he makes his purchases. Being alone might be a bit lonely, but at least she's safe.

It would be even better if we could get a dog.

Reclining on the heated kang (a traditional Chinese bed-stove), Tan You's eyes were filled with joy as she imagined her future. This pure farming life was truly delightful.

It was late at night, a time when all should be quiet. But Tan You suddenly opened her eyes; she seemed to sense something was wrong. Releasing her mental energy, Tan You saw a swarm of mutated rats rushing towards the farm.

Tan You sat up, and with a flick of her wrist, Little Leaf flew to her wrist. As she left the courtyard, Tan You grabbed a shovel. As a wood-type ability user, her offensive methods were truly limited; she could only hope that these mutated rats wouldn't burrow into her yard. "Little Leaf and I will go fight the mutated rats. You guard the yard," Tan You said, patting the mutated cherry tree as she left. "If they dare to come in, leave no one alive."

The branches of the mutated cherry tree twitched, as if in response to Tan You's words.

Tan You rode her motorcycle, carrying a shovel, straight out of the farm. Coincidentally, the mutated rat army arrived just as she reached the protective shield. Without Tan You even having to say anything, Xiao Yezi quickly grew larger and rushed out.

Also flying out were small grass stems, namely dodder. The two attacked in similar ways, but the small grass stems strangled the mutated rat, while the small leaves devoured its flesh and blood, leaving only a withered rat skin in the end.

The little grass stem was a level six mutated dodder, possessing astonishing combat power. It and the little leaf fought bravely in front, while Tan You simply stood behind, leaning on her shovel, occasionally swatting a few mutated rats to death.

Of course, some mutant beasts tried to burrow into the farm, but the grass stems and dodder were deeply rooted in the soil, and these mutant rats simply couldn't get past their barrier.

Little Leaf was really into the action. Although Tan You would take it hunting in the mountains, it wasn't as enjoyable as this buffet. These mutated rats were mostly Tier 2, with very few Tier 3.

The small leaves of the third-level heterophyte are completely capable of handling the task, even very easily.

After fighting all the way, the third leaf of the little leaf grew from half the size of the palm to the size of the palm, which shows that it had a full meal this time.

The mutated rat swarm, which had been initially aggressive, unexpectedly encountered two monstrous forces before it even got off to a successful start. One of them strangled the rats, leaving them a bloody mess, while the other had piles of rat skins next to them, making the scene even more terrifying.

The only living person standing was Tan You, who had nothing to do and no chance to make a move.

Tan You arrived outside the farm at 2 a.m., but the battle continued until 5 a.m., just as dawn was breaking. Relying solely on two mutated plants, they managed to hold off the horde of mutant rats.

The rats were truly terrified. Two squeaks rang out from the back, and the mutated rats slowly retreated like a tide. This signified that Tan You and her team had achieved final victory.

Tan You was also exhausted. Did they really think that fighting with alien plants wouldn't be tiring? It was because she was the "charging station" constantly resupplying her from behind. She felt like she was being completely drained.

On the contrary, the two exotic plants, the small grass stem and the small leaf, seemed to have taken a tonic. The small grass stem looked radiant, and as for the small leaf, it had leaped to the fourth level, growing a fourth leaf, which was almost the size of the palm of the hand.

Tan You couldn't count how many mutated rats they killed that night. Xiao Yezi could keep track, but Xiao Caojing's body was completely mangled and bloody, and it was impossible to piece together a complete mutated rat corpse.

"This can't be seen by anyone." Tan You looked at the equally horrific scenes on both sides and began to clean up. She took out a lighter, and the flame burned the rat skin and flesh to ashes, leaving only a pile of ash.

Apart from the patch of soil where the grass stems had been growing darker, nothing else seemed out of the ordinary, and no one knew that a battle had taken place there in the middle of the night.
