Witch, I'm really not an ancient god of the deep sea!

Chapter 89 Chance Encounter
On the grassland, a gentle breeze blew by, and the deep-sea creature beneath the two shivered.

The Flower Witch, holding the bowl, remained silent for a long while.

"Do you dislike your name? Or are you unwilling to say?" Chen Qi paused, as if he had asked a question he shouldn't have.

The Flower Witch is a well-known figure on gaming forums.

However, neither the Flower Witch herself nor the players really like the name "Flower Witch".

In the Witch Sea, only titles recognized by the world are true names.

The Flower Witch picked up a cabbage and said slowly:

“Fen, my name is Fen, a very ordinary name.”

Chen Qi smiled slightly:
"A simple, but nice name."

In this world, many people's names consist of a single syllable and a simple meaning.

Just like his name in this world, Qi, it symbolizes possibility, enlightenment, and so on.

In the kingdom of golden flowers and birds, "Fen" means fragrance.

The Flower Witch may have been running around every day and hadn't bathed for many days, but she smells really good.

A name that suits her quite well.

But Fen is a fairly common name in the Golden Flower and Bird Kingdom, and it's a name used by many men, much like Zhang Wei.

The Flower Witch is of noble birth, but her name is surprisingly ordinary.

Therefore, the Flower Witch doesn't like people mentioning her name.

Chen Qi changed the subject:
"By the way, Flower Witch, how much are the vegetables in your garden? I'd like to buy some."

The Flower Witch wiped the grease from the corner of her mouth:

"Friendship price, three thousand... no, take it if you want. The Dragon Breath Grass you gave me is very valuable, enough to buy a lot of vegetables."

Besides, I'm not very good at cooking, so if I could turn these ingredients into delicious food, both my teacher and I would be happy.

"Take it if you want..."

Chen Qi's mouth was slightly open.

This is an entire vegetable garden!

The Flower Witch laughed proudly:
"Although you can't tell, I'm very good at growing vegetables."

"Growing vegetables?"

The Flower Witch made a hoe-carrying motion and explained:

"Yes, when I was a child, I lived in the countryside because of illness. Our family motto is nobility and elegance!"
However, in the countryside, there was no piano, no flower seeds, no friends my age, and I wasn't allowed to interact with pets.

Many elegant things are beyond my reach.

However, after thinking about it, if growing flowers is elegant, then growing vegetables should also be elegant.

So I started planting vegetables with the maid, and afterwards I got scolded.

"Did you grow all this vegetable garden?"

Chen Qi was somewhat impressed and imagined it.

A young flower witch, carrying a hoe twice the height of a person, clearing land.

With so many dishes, it's quite a project.

The Flower Witch seems to have found a kindred spirit, since her parents and relatives all told her that growing vegetables is something only vulgar people do.

A few lively little yellow flowers sprouted from her head:
"That's right, by the way, did you know? After I fulfill the Flower Witch's long-cherished wish, I plan to give myself a more elegant and domineering title."

Chen Qi asked curiously, "What title?"

The Flower Witch inherited the wishes and legacy of the first Flower Witch, and has therefore always referred to herself by this title.

Blood flower witch?
The Flower Witch's ultimate move is for flowers to bloom amidst blood.

Or the Fragrance Witch? That's a fairly common title, but it fits the identity of the Flower Witch.

"Hmph, hmph, this is a title I've thought about for a long time, and it's exceptionally elegant."

"what?"

The Flower Witch puffed out her chest, wiped her nose with her index finger, and said with a hint of pride:
"The Vegetable Witch".

"!?"

Chen Qi almost choked on the cabbage slices.

What kind of weird titles are these? Why not call her the Potato Witch or the Cabbage Witch?
This is like the Gluttony Witch turning into the Dry Rice Witch, the Angry Witch turning into the Punk Witch, the Ice Witch turning into the Ice Cream Witch, and the Despair Witch turning into the Depression Witch.

In Chen Qi's view, food has another layer of meaning.

When it comes to cooking, just practice more.

The Flower Witch asked expectantly, "How was it? Wasn't it elegant?"

"Hmm...not bad, I guess."

Chen Qi nodded in agreement.

The Flower Witch revealed two happy little yellow flowers:
"Isn't it elegant? Unfortunately, I can't give up this name until I fulfill the Flower Witch's wish."

I must follow the teacher's path to make everything better and to get better..."

As the Flower Witch spoke, the flowers on her head withered, and a heavy sense of fate and illness pressed down upon her. To make a name for oneself alone on this vast ocean was no easy feat.

To fight against the giant whale is to go against fate.

This is a miracle that only a legendary person could accomplish.

Beneath the feet of every legend lie countless piles of bones.

No one knows how many people who went to sea have been buried in the Witch's Sea.

While chatting, the food on the table was almost finished.

And the alchemical boiler was making a gurgling sound.

The Flower Witch reluctantly got up from the water spirit and resumed her work of concocting medicine.

Chen Qi asked the deep-sea water sprite to clean up the dishes.

Under his tutelage, the deep-sea creature has learned to wash dishes and clean.

He was confident that before long, the deep-sea creature would also learn to fold blankets and give massages.

Chen Qi asked, somewhat bored, "Flower Witch, how much longer?"

"A few hours, I guess."

Watching the Flower Witch make medicine all the time isn't a good idea... Chen Qi patted the book:
"I want to go outside the black soil and see what's there. I saw some amazing ingredients during my voyage."

"Ingredients?"

The Flower Witch reminisces for a moment.

Indeed, there are many rare and extraordinary fish species in the black soil region.

However, Blackbeard posed no danger to her whatsoever.

But if Chen Qi enters the black soil without taking precautions, it's like a little white lamb entering a wolf's den.

The Flower Witch took out a bottle of black potion and handed it to Chen Qi:

"The scent of this potion can repel Blackbeard. If you want to go out, you can apply this potion, and then Blackbeard will not attack you."

"Thank you."

Chen Qi took the medicine and applied it from the top of his head to the soles of his feet.

Then, he passed through the crack and returned to the island of black earth.

The morning sunlight shone on his jet-black hair.

Chen Qi enjoyed the feeling of the sunlight washing away his fatigue: "Is it already daytime?"

The entire black soil island is like a huge reed field.

However, these reeds are much taller and have black tendrils.

Chen Qi walked through the dense thicket of black stubble, glancing at the water as he ventured deeper into the forest.

After some time, he successfully located a rare sea creature.

"This is?"

Chen Qi squatted down and picked up the black clam at his feet.

Black Clam

Description: Extraordinary clams that can bite humans with their sharp shells, causing those bitten to suffer nightmares.

Its black pearls are eye-catching, making it a truly exquisite piece of jewelry.

"Ten black clams, that's a lot of money. We can transplant them to the White Tree Land."

Chen Qi put the black clam into his bucket.

The black soil region is too remote and dilapidated.

He decided to give the black clams a better home.

A single black oyster pearl can sell for around 70,000 yuan, so ten pearls would be worth 700,000 yuan.

Moreover, unlike ordinary clams, black clams are no ordinary creatures; they produce pearls extremely quickly.

With the help of the ghost fire fish, it's not a dream for him to save up enough money to buy a big ship.

A path to wealth has appeared before his eyes.

Chen Qi continued to carefully walk inside the black whiskers, hoping to find more black clams.

Suddenly, he heard some familiar sounds, as well as the sound of a knife cutting meat.

Boom! Boom!
In addition, there was the rumbling of large machinery.

"So, our great little boat doctor, what's the concentration of this black whale blood?"

A familiar voice came from behind the Blackbeard Wall.

Chen Qi stopped and gradually slowed down his movements.

In this forbidden land of black beard, there are others...

Thank you to Yi Shang Yi for the 100-point reward, and thank you everyone for reading and subscribing. Arigato! (°°)
P.S.: Choosing a name is really hard; I feel like I'm still more comfortable writing "The Flower Witch"...
