Chapter 7 Mutant Giant Lemon

Josh recalled that these small giant lemons seemed to be picked from the same tree.

Compared with other giant lemon trees, the tree looks much smaller and the fruits are much smaller than others. These small giant lemons are only the size of a thumb, while normal giant lemons are the size of an ordinary grapefruit.

Logically speaking, if they were all giant lemon trees of the same size, even if they were poorly managed and malnourished, this one wouldn't be the only one that's short and has miniature fruits.

And the taste is sweet and sour, which is very different from the normal giant lemon. It must be a problem with the tree.

Qiao Xi thought about it and realized that the giant lemon is a very mature edible and medicinal magic fruit tree. Generally, it will not hybridize with other ordinary fruit trees.

In the orchard behind, many native plants of the forest have grown. There may be wild magic fruit trees in it. I have to go and take a closer look.

But after thinking for a while, the sky had already darkened and a cold wind began to blow.

Feeling that the weather was about to change, Josh quickly cleared the dishes, washed the pots and pans, quickly washed up, and got into bed.

As expected, it rained.

It was not convenient for Qiao Xi to go to the orchard on rainy days. The road leading there had not been repaired and it was bound to be muddy.

However, this rain was what Qiao Xi had been looking forward to. Taro bamboo grows very quickly when it rains. Once this rain comes, Qiao Xi will be able to pick taro sprouts in less than half a month.

It was raining and I couldn't go to the fields, so I went into the city to see where I could rent an iron-beaked woodpecker. I had to get rid of the greedy longhorn beetle as soon as possible.

It is spring, the season when fruit trees grow and sprout. The longer you delay, the greater the loss.

The Weiguang Farm is located in a remote area, so Qiao Xi could only put on a raincoat, sit on a big-tailed yak, and walk slowly over.

It’s not that the big-tailed yak can’t run away. It’s just that it’s been well fed and rested for the past few days. The main reason is that Qiao Xi’s butt has surrendered.

When running on the cow's back, it was bouncing back and forth, and Qiao Xi felt like her butt was about to break, so she could only walk slowly.

Besides, the weather was too cold. When he started running, the cold wind blew on Qiao Xi's face. Who could stand it?

It was already noon when Qiao Xi arrived at Chaoyang City. Although it was called a city, it was actually just a large settlement. It did not have a complete urban structure like other cities.

Everything here is prepared for the opening up of war.

The main suppliers of farmers like Josh are the major pioneering corps and free pioneering fighters.

At the signal from the guards, Josh dismounted the cow and walked into the street holding the reins.

As expected of a pioneering city, there are quite a few monsters of all sizes, but most people carry auxiliary monsters with weak offensive power. Overly violent monsters are not allowed to be released.

Qiao Xi pulled the big-tailed yak, carefully avoiding passing pedestrians and vehicles.

There are all kinds of magic fruit shops, pharmacies and equipment stores on both sides of the street, and even some that rent out large mechanical equipment.

This world relies heavily on Warcraft, and this kind of large machinery is rare, so Josh also went over to see what was going on.

I looked around but couldn't find anywhere that rented out iron-beaked woodpeckers. All I could find were wild bulls, elf monkeys, and the like.

Josh scratched his head, feeling like he had forgotten something.

Oh right! I should have gone to the free market. How could I have forgotten about it?

Chaoyang City is a pioneering city. The place with the most goods and the richest variety is not on the streets, but in the free market.

Qiao Xi led the big-tailed yak and hurried to the free market.

Sure enough, the closer you get to the development point, the more stalls of all sizes you see on the roadside.

"Bobo Chicken, Bobo Chicken, Bobo Chicken for 100 Per Piece" "Delicious and Affordable, Double the Effect - Exclusive Nutrient Solution"

Renting Myself, Two Hundred a Day

…………

It’s a big city indeed, with so much variety.

Soon, Qiao Xi found a stall that said "Professional insect exterminator, part-time mail delivery."

There was an iron-beaked woodpecker standing on the stall owner's shoulder, with its pale yellow crown standing upright and its straight beak shining silver even on the cloudy day. It was obvious that it was well-bred.

Josh walked over and asked politely, "Excuse me, how much does it cost to rent a woodpecker?"

Seeing the customer, Buda immediately became excited: "Excuse me, are you catching insects or delivering letters? The prices are different for each type.

Letters can only be sent to the area near Chaoyang City. If it is too far away, the Iron-beaked Woodpecker will not be able to find the place, and you will need to find the Spread-winged Dove or the Spotted-tailed Vulture.

When catching insects, there are two prices: one for the dead insects and the other for the dead insects.

"I'm an insect catcher. I don't want the corpses. I want to catch longhorn beetles, but you need me to check the entire forest." Qiao Xi answered quickly.

The corpses of Warcraft can also be sold for money. The carapace and tentacles of the gluttonous longhorn beetle are brightly colored and have some effects such as glowing and dazzling.

It is made into an enlightenment toy and is very popular among wealthy families.

"Greedy longicorn beetle? Sure, if you don't want the corpse, each one will only cost 80 federal points. How big is it? Did you see it?" Buda immediately agreed to the deal.

If you don't want the corpse, you can let the iron-beaked woodpecker eat it. This will not only train your combat skills but also replenish your nutrition.

Earning 80 points can be considered as buying snacks. The price of a greedy longhorn beetle is more than that.

"I'm not sure how many there are, so I can only ask Iron-beaked Woodpecker to check. How can we contact each other then? If it doesn't rain tomorrow, I'd like you to go there tomorrow morning."

Two hundred federal points was beyond Josh's expectation. Although he thought it would be cheaper without the corpse, this man's Iron-beaked Woodpecker looked well-bred, and he didn't expect it to be so affordable.

Buda chuckled, noticing Qiao Xi's surprise, "This is my dad's Warcraft. He came with me just to make some extra money. Good work, cheap!"

"Do you have a communicator? I'll add you. Send me your location. I'll have the Iron-beaked Woodpecker arrive on time at 8 a.m. tomorrow."

A communicator? Qiao Xi's brain short-circuited. She really didn't have one.

Qiao Xi didn't have any relatives or friends, and she didn't have anyone she needed to contact on a daily basis, so she really didn't understand this.

Seeing Qiao Xi choking, Buda was also shocked. There were still people in Chaoyang City who didn’t know about the communicator.

"Can you wait for me? I'll go buy it right away." Josh asked awkwardly.

"It's okay, it's okay. Go buy it, sir. I'll wait for you here." Buda waved her hand, indicating that he would wait for her here, and pointed to the store selling communicators for Qiao Xi.

The communicator is like a low-end version of a mobile phone. After Qiao Xi traveled through time, she learned about it and thought it was a mobile phone, which made her excited. However, after learning about it, she realized that it was not even as good as Xiao Tiancai's phone watch, which made her very disappointed, so she never bought it.

But it's been a long time, I don't know if there are any new changes in the communicator now.

Josh walked over. There were quite a few people in the small machinery shop. Josh walked to the counter and looked at the communicator.

It is indeed more fancy and has many new features than before.
