A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 92 Yuba's Blessing

After saying that, Gunther took out a dark green strip of object from under the counter. It looked like a stone, or some kind of gem. In any case, Leon couldn't tell what it was made of.

"Take it, it is the key to giving vitality to the ancient seeds." Gunther handed the thing to Leon. Leon took it curiously and held it in his hand. It felt very smooth, like a piece of jade that had been polished for a long time, and a little heavy. Obviously, this thing was very dense.

At the same time, just like last time when he got the bone fragment from Gunther, the system prompt came the moment he got it.

"Yuba's Blessing (???): A gift from the most ancient gods. The holder can call upon the power of nature to awaken the vitality of life. It is only effective for non-intelligent life."

Just like the ancient mystery last time, after the system prompt appeared, this dark green object weathered into debris and appeared in Leon's personal panel in the form of a special ability.

Gunther was not surprised by this, but urged Leon: "Pick up other seeds and try them. I'm curious about what the ancient seeds will look like after they come back to life."

Lyon nodded and took out another seed. As soon as he took the seed in his hand, he felt a faint desire conveyed by the seed. It was almost an instinctive reaction. Lyon held the ancient seed in his hand.

The next moment, a burst of emerald green fluorescence emerged in Lyon's hand. The ancient seed in Lyon's hand, wrapped in this ball of fluorescence, actually conveyed joy to Lyon. When the fluorescence dissipated, Lyon opened his palm and found that the ancient seed with the originally dry seed shell had cracked, and an extremely slender sprout emerged from the crack.

"Ancient Seeds (Seeds): Ancient seeds that have sprouted, but can they really grow?"

At this moment, the system's label changed the name and type of the ancient seed, from an antique to a seed.

"This is truly a miracle, just like a phoenix rising from the ashes." Gunther looked at the ancient seed in Leon's hand with a very happy expression.

"I don't know if I can grow it." Lyon complained while holding the ancient seed. After all, the system's notes were really intimidating.

"You'll know if you give it a try. After all, Mr. Leon, you own the most fertile land in Stardew Valley. I believe these plants from ancient times will regain their glory under your care." Gunther encouraged Leon.

"Compared to this seed, I'm more curious about whether Mr. Gunther knows the origin of the thing you gave me?" Leon smiled, then put the ancient seed that had regained its vitality into his backpack, performed a show of disappearing out of thin air, and observed Gunther's reaction.

Unfortunately, Gunther shook his head as if he hadn't seen it. "I only know that it contains a very strong vitality. I don't know the details. This is also something my friend gave me. It doesn't belong to me."

"I see. Then I won't bother you anymore, Mr. Gunther. As you said, I'm going to go back and plant these ancient seeds and see if I can give them a second life on my farm. Goodbye."

Leon didn't take Gunther's perfunctory response seriously. There weren't so many coincidences in the world. He took out the ancient seeds, and Gunther took out Yuba's blessing that could awaken the vitality of the ancient seeds. But Gunther didn't say it, and he couldn't force him to say it.

In the end, he was the one who benefited the most. Who cared what the truth was? When smart people get along, they see things clearly but don't speak out. This always helps avoid unnecessary trouble. "Goodbye, Mr. Lyon. I wish you good luck in your work." Gunther took off his hat and placed it on his chest, bowing slightly.

After leaving the library, Leon rode his bike back to the farm, and transformed the ancient seeds in the bag into plantable ancient seeds one by one. After finding a separate area to plant the seeds, he made a scarecrow for these seeds to provide protection.

Compared with other seeds on the farm, the value of these four ancient seeds is too great. Leon doesn't want the blind crows to eat these four seeds, otherwise he is not sure whether he will decide to commit genocide on all the crows in Stardew Valley.

After planting the ancient seed, Leon opened the panel and stared at the newly appeared blessing of Yuba in the special ability column. He found that its introduction was the same as the initial mark of the system, without any changes.

The description of the effective restrictions on non-intelligent life made Leon feel a little regretful. If there was no such restriction, did it mean that he could rely on the ability granted by this ability to awaken the vitality of life and bring the dead back to life?

After all, it is an ability related to Yuba, the creator god of this world, so it should be able to do this. It's a pity that there are limitations. It is not clear how large the scope of this non-intelligent creature is. After all, wisdom is something that, in addition to humans, animals seem to have a weak wisdom. Does that mean that this ability is also ineffective for animals?
Although he was curious, Leon was not cruel enough to catch a small animal in the forest and kill it to test this range for the sake of experiment. He could only abandon this idea for the time being and wait until the next time he encountered a related incident to experiment again.

After planting the ancient seeds, Lyon returned to a state of having nothing to do. He looked at the time and saw that there was still some time before nightfall. Since he had nothing to do anyway, Lyon carried his fishing rod and rode his bicycle towards the coal forest.

A morning of fishing time made Lyon appreciate the joy of fishing. In other words, he seemed to be addicted to it. Since he had nothing to do anyway, he might as well cast a few rods. If he caught something, he could not only have an extra meal in the evening, but also earn some extra income. Why not do it?

When Lyon arrived at the lake pier in the southern coal forest, he found embarrassedly that he seemed to have forgotten to prepare the bait.

The bait for fishing in the morning was provided by Willy, and Leon did not prepare any bait himself.

Looking at the empty fishhook, Leon was wondering if the fish in Stardew Valley would bite the hook regardless of whether there was bait on it or not, when he heard someone greeting him.

"Hi! Leon."

Lyon looked over and found that in the northwest direction of the lake, Leah was sitting by the lake with a drawing board in front of her and a paintbrush in her hand, waving at him.

"Oh, it's Ms. Leah, good afternoon." Lyon greeted Leah across the lake. Because the two were a little far apart, Lyon shouted.

"Good afternoon." Leah also shouted loudly, and then realized that such communication was a bit difficult and hurtful to her throat, so she took the initiative to put away the easel and put it in her armpit, and walked towards Leon.
