When the female supporting role has a beauty system

Chapter 1289 Farm Owner 42
Could Chen Xiaojun outmaneuver Minister Huang? Of course not. Chen Xiaojun was somewhat disappointed that he'd missed a good opportunity to impress the leadership. But the thought that someone else had taken over, meaning he and Li Yong could go back and enjoy their persimmons sooner, made him feel less disappointed.

He immediately brought over the other three boxes as well: "Alright, then I'll trouble Minister Huang to make the trip."

Minister Huang left satisfied, carrying four boxes. Chen Xiaojun immediately grabbed Li Yong and ran back to the dormitory. As soon as they entered the room, Chen Xiaojun hurriedly closed and locked the door: "Quick, quick, let's see what the benefits of these persimmons are?"

Li Yong couldn't help but be curious, as he remembered that there were no persimmon trees on the farm before. But now, almost every time he went there, there would be some mutated plants on the farm.

"Beep, Level 3 mutated fire crystal persimmon, pollution index 0, moisturizes the lungs, relieves dryness, and cures mouth ulcers."

Chen Xiaojun chuckled as he held the persimmons: "That's great, Yong-ge, you've been coughing a lot lately, this is just what's needed."

He handed his two persimmons to Li Yong, saying, "Eat more."

Li Yong looked at Chen Xiaojun with a complicated expression: "Give it all to me? Then you won't have anything to eat."

“I just like to eat,” Chen Xiaojun waved his hand, “but it’s not good for you to cough like this all the time. If I want to eat persimmons, we can go to the farm and eat regular persimmons. Sister Wei will definitely let me eat my fill.”

Li Yong looked at the four persimmons in his hand, and finally pinched Chen Xiaojun's neck. Chen Xiaojun, ticklish, flinched away: "Brother Yong...don't pinch my neck!"

"So sweet." Tan You saw this scene on the screen, took a slow bite of the persimmon, and it was unclear whether she was saying the persimmon was sweet or expressing something else.

"Eat quickly, if you hide them, those animals will easily see them, and then you won't get a single one." Chen Xiaojun quickly washed the persimmons. If he weren't afraid that he couldn't beat Li Yong, he would have liked to help Li Yong eat them.

Li Yong looked at Chen Xiaojun with gentle eyes and ate the four persimmons, each the size of a baby's fist, as instructed. The effect was immediate; Li Yong instantly felt a cool sensation in his lungs, and the ulcers in his mouth no longer hurt.

As for the cough, it seems to be completely gone.

Li Yong looked at the few persimmon seeds in his hand and carefully put them into a small box. These were given to Chen Xiaojun by Tan You, so he would return them to Tan You later, not to the Legion.

Chen Xiaojun thought so too. He carefully put the small box away: "We're going on patrol the day after tomorrow. We'll bring this to Sister Wei then. I wonder what delicious food Sister Wei is making at the farm. The Laba porridge we had last time was really good. I want to eat it again."

Tan You considered the farm's inventory and decided that the hot weather was perfect for enjoying a fragrant Laba porridge.

Without hesitation, Tan You quickly soaked all kinds of beans. Doumi, who was lying on the kang (heated brick bed) pretending to be asleep, glanced at Tan You, lazily turned over, and slept sprawled out.

Tan You glanced back at Doumi and saw its large body curled up in a contorted shape, and couldn't help but laugh. The kitten sleeping like that undoubtedly meant it knew its environment was safe and could be itself freely and easily.

After soaking all the ingredients, Tan You sat down on the kang (heated brick bed). Instead of resting, she sat cross-legged and began to meditate. She had felt her supernatural abilities were nearly fully built up the day before yesterday, and now it was time to upgrade.

Tan You held a level-four wood-element crystal core in her right palm, focusing intently on replenishing the wood-element factors in the air. With the aid of the crystal core and the accumulation of many days, Tan You felt as if she had pierced through a layer of mulberry paper, and her advancement was a natural progression.

She didn't stop cultivating; instead, she continued absorbing the energy from the crystal core. Only after completely stabilizing her realm did Tan You open her eyes. The moment she opened them, she felt the weight on her legs. Doumi had its entire head resting on her lap, and even its two front paws were wrapped around her waist. If it weren't for its large size, Doumi probably would have crawled into her arms.

"No wonder my legs are numb," Ming Jiu pinched Doumi's ear, and seeing Doumi's blissful expression, she simply smiled and lowered her eyes: "Doumi, get up, my legs are numb."

Doumi made a gurgling sound in its throat, its eyes half-open and half-closed, unwilling to look away. Tan You helplessly tugged at its whiskers: "Be good, Doumi."

As she spoke, she used her supernatural power to soothe Doumi, who then moved away, though its two front paws remained on Tan You's legs. The cat didn't know how it got onto Tan You, but it felt incredibly comfortable on her.

Tan You held Dou Mi's two front paws. Dou Mi's paws were bigger than her hands, and they felt soft yet strong when she squeezed them.

Perhaps because she had just upgraded, Tan You couldn't fully control her superpower yet. She stared at Dou Mi, and then suddenly frowned. Why did she see a very strong halo around Dou Mi?

The halo was mixed with a deathly gray aura, which gave Tan You a very unpleasant feeling. Looking at that gloomy aura, Tan You subconsciously activated her supernatural power and pinched it.

A wisp of gloomy aura was plucked away by Tan You and vanished into the air, while the light emanating from Dou Mi seemed to brighten even more.

Doumi rolled over and shoved its paws back into Tan You's hands. Tan You became interested and quickly shredded the thick, grayish-white mist on Doumi's body, which was the size of a basketball, into the size of a volleyball.

At this moment, Doumi and Xiaohulu woke up and were sleeping soundly on the kang (heated brick bed).

Tan You sensed her supernatural ability; compared to level four, level five was terrifyingly strong. She had struggled so much to purify the cherry trees before, but now she felt she could purify five cherry trees in one go.

As she said this, Tan You strolled into the courtyard. At this moment, in her eyes, these mutated plants had lost their original appearance; they were all clumps of energy.

Some energy entities have a stronger aura, while others have a weaker one. The mutated plants below level four have exceptionally pure energy, without the slightest trace of deathly aura.

While the mutated plants at level five and above also have very clean halos, there are still wisps of deathly grayness at their very center.

"Could this stagnant air be pollution?" Tan You's mind raced. She walked to the apple tree and placed her right hand on it. To others, it seemed Tan You was purifying the apple tree.

In Tan You's own view, she had specifically targeted the clump of dead energy inside the core of the apple tree. After thoroughly extracting this clump of dead energy, Tan You used her terminal to test it: "Beep, Level 5 mutated apple tree, pollution index 0, edible, long-term consumption can nourish the heart and calm the mind."

"As expected, my guess was right." Tan You put away the terminal and touched the apple tree again: "I purified it for you as soon as I upgraded, so you can't rush me anymore."

The apple tree stretched contentedly, then shook itself, and a branch drooped down in front of Tan You, covered with bright red apples.

Tan You picked one: "I'll save it and eat it slowly. You should get some rest. I've checked on everyone, so I'm going in to rest too."
