I manifested the Shushan game

Chapter 18 Cancer Cells' Underhanded Tactics, Vanishing Lifespan!

Seeing Lin Nan's expression, Zhao Kang asked, "You haven't been to the old elm tree yet today?"

Lin Nan shook her head: "We just arrived today, and I took the kids to experience planting vegetables in the countryside. They ended up playing in the mud!"

Zhao Kang understood, smiled, and explained with the air of someone who had been through it all: "These three old elm trees of the Chen family have a deep history. In the past, there were constant disasters, and people from all around prayed to the Demon-Subduing Heavenly Venerable worshipped by the Chen family for blessings. The current head of the family felt this and planted three old elm trees because elm trees have the meaning of protection, protection, and suppression of evil spirits."

"Even the Qing Dynasty's Yongzheng Emperor came to water the three elm trees. The key is that the three elm trees have been nourished by the Chen family for a long time, and they have developed a spiritual nature and emit spiritual energy. People who are in the vicinity of the three old elm trees will have a magical feeling."

"Uncle Zhao, what you're saying is too far-fetched, isn't it?" Lin Nan said, somewhat incredulously.

So does everyone else.

Although there is a saying that ancient trees have spirits, who has ever actually seen a tree develop a spirit?
"Whether it's mysterious or not, we'll find out when we go take a look," Zhao Kang said with a smile.

Lin Nan and his group were indeed intrigued and wanted to see for themselves, so they followed him out of the tourist accommodation area and headed to the place where the three old elm trees were located.

Soon, Lin Nan saw the three old elm trees in the distance.

Even in the darkness of night, the silhouette of this 300-year-old tree gives one a sense of magnificent canopy.

As you get closer, you can see that the old elm tree is surrounded by some specially made retro lanterns and night lights. Although they are not very bright, you can still see clearly around them. They are quite unique and in line with the style of Chen family ancient buildings.

“Come on, you can feel that wonder as you get closer to the ancient tree,” Zhao Kang invited, and took the lead to walk inside. Sure enough, he felt that wonderful sensation after a while.

Seeing that Uncle Zhao spoke with such certainty, Lin Nan became even more curious and followed him. However, after getting close to a certain distance, he was completely stunned.

In that instant, a feeling of complete comfort spread throughout my body, and I even felt my hair follicles opening up with each breath, as if I were suddenly in an oxygen bar.

This……

The sudden sensation made him instinctively take a step back, and with that one step, the feeling vanished instantly.

He took another step forward, and the strange feeling returned once again.

The others also noticed it, and they were all filled with surprise.

"It feels really amazing, it just appeared out of nowhere."

"Yeah, I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't experienced it myself."

"..."

Lin Nan was also shocked, staring incredulously at the magnificent canopies of the three old elm trees in the darkness. Or... did these three old elm trees really possess some kind of spiritual power? Otherwise, how could this magical feeling be explained?

...

Time passed, and a night went by.

Chen Han woke up to the sound of an alarm clock. It was already 4:30 in the morning, almost Mao Shi (5:00 AM).

He got up immediately, but he was even more tired than usual today, all due to the side effects of taking painkillers.

Looking at the game interface in his mind, he saw many game-related prompts while he was asleep.

[Congratulations! Elder Gongtang has completed the special furnace for refining Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea. You can begin processing the Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea!]

Clearly, my uncle had built the furnace overnight.

Under normal circumstances, such a stove and wok should be left to air dry for at least 5-7 days after they are set up before they can be used.

However, the existence of the game system obviously bypasses the air-drying process.

There are also 9 messages: "[Congratulations! The image transmitted through the Spirit Mirror has gained you a follower, earning you 1 reputation point!]" and 7 messages: "[Congratulations! The Chen Clan's wondrous scenery is awe-inspiring, reputation +1!]"

Clearly, the video that stirred up infighting among the dog demons brought him nine more followers. He checked his phone and saw that he already had over 2400 likes, but the numbers had stopped moving.

Additionally, the breathtaking scenery added 7 reputation points, which should be for Mr. Lin and his group of 6, plus Mr. Zhao.

This made his eyes light up.

If that's the case, then it's not like a tourist can only farm the reputation for "Manifestation in Public" and "Awe-inspiring Wonders" once; they should be able to farm them again the next day or after some time.

Therefore, we can ask Mr. Lin and his group to conduct an experiment today.

Chen Han glanced at his reputation.

With these 16 points added, the total reputation reaches 143 points.

Next, he looked at the lifespan he was most concerned about: 25 days and 18 hours and 20 minutes.

He was stunned for a moment.

wrong!

Yesterday at this time was 27 days and 18 o'clock.

Having eaten the dog demon's flesh and undergone a spiritual energy cleansing, the loss of one day's lifespan should have been offset.

So today should still be 27 days and 18 o'clock.

Now it's 25 days.

Two days have mysteriously disappeared. Was it because my cancer cells acted up last night?

But I've never had this problem before when I vomited blood.

This made him frown deeply.

Cancer patients need to keep painkillers on hand because cancer cells can cause trouble from time to time, and won't let you die peacefully even if you're just waiting to die.

In his case, the cancer cells flared up twice in a short period of time.

Coughing up blood before didn't affect my lifespan, but last night, not coughing up blood actually affected my lifespan.

It seems to be probabilistic.

It should be related to the direction of diffusion, the size of the volume, and the damage caused to surrounding tissues, organs, and nerves.

This was also the unexpected situation he was worried about.

If that's the case, the extra time each day gained from the dog demon flesh and spiritual energy alone is simply not enough to stop the depletion caused by this cancerous external attack.

For a moment, Chen Han felt somewhat agitated.

We still need to upgrade our sect's headquarters as soon as possible to obtain new rewards.

Thinking about it, he hurriedly went out and headed to the special spiritual cave.

This situation has already added a crisis buff to his situation; the guaranteed time for the spiritual energy cleansing and the dog demon meat absolutely cannot be compromised again.

Upon arriving at the special spiritual cave again, the surrounding light was already dim. Chen Han's gaze was first drawn to the vines and flowers on the fence, as they were somewhat wilted.

Although my uncle and his family used local materials, the root system was inevitably damaged, unlike the cultivated plants they bought.

But it doesn't cost any money; you can just go back up the mountain and use whatever you can find there after you die.

He entered the pavilion and sat cross-legged to wait until the morning sun's rays crossed the distant mountains and fell upon the earth, triggering the spiritual energy cleansing of the special spiritual cave.

That magical feeling returned. As the spiritual energy appeared, every pore on my body felt refreshed, like a thirsty fish frantically absorbing the cleansing spiritual energy.

When the spiritual energy cleansing ended and he emerged from that magical state, Chen Hanzhen felt a sense of emptiness, like a man after a cathartic release.

"Sigh!" Chen Han sighed. When he looked at the vines and flowers on the fence again, he found that they were no longer wilted at all. In a short time, they had become lush and green, thriving under the bright sun.

This is clearly the benefit of being cleansed by spiritual energy.

He suddenly felt a pang of envy.

一次灵气冲刷就能让这些藤系植被和花卉从蔫了的状态彻底恢复，他却是只能增加12小时寿命，从25天18时变成了26天6时。

These two days of life that just vanished for no reason are truly heartbreaking.

He didn't waste any time. He went to the visitor reception kitchen, found another piece of meat, cut it into slices, and then headed out of the village, intending to do his daily task of instigating infighting among the dog demons.

Dogs are early risers, and three dogs were already wandering around the village entrance early in the morning. Among them was the white dog that was beaten up yesterday. Its leg had obviously recovered a lot, and you couldn't tell anything when it walked away.

He also took out the Spirit Mirror to begin today's recording: "For the safety of the family, I have decided to once again venture into the dog demon's territory and continue to incite infighting among them."

Since this can bring in fans and attention, it's natural to continue filming to increase reputation.

Having learned from yesterday's experience, he successfully led the stray dogs outside the village to the village entrance today. The white dog seemed to have two companions today, and it even barked fiercely at the group of stray dogs outside the village.

But while it was barking, its two companion dogs had already run into the village. So when several stray dogs from outside the village pounced on it, it realized it was too late and was beaten badly again. It carried one leg and ran back into the village in a sorry state, barking all the while.

Then, the little mongrel appeared again with a pack of dogs, fiercely attacking them, only to be defeated and dispersed by the stray dogs from outside the village once more.

When the fighting finally ended, Chen Han appeared at the scene of the battle, looking at the two pieces of dog demon meat enveloped in white light with great pleasure. It seemed that the drop rate was not fixed.

After storing the two pieces of dog demon meat in the warehouse, Chen Han returned to the Chen family. When he arrived at his uncle's courtyard, he could see three bamboo trays with bamboo leaves and bamboo leaf cores that had been cooling. They had all softened and a lot of moisture had evaporated, so they were ready to be stir-fried.

In the kitchen, my uncle was already cooking porridge.

While his uncle wasn't looking, he took out a piece of dog demon meat from the warehouse, enough to make two servings of medicinal cuisine.

"Xiao Han, the porridge will be ready in a bit, please have a seat." Chen Lin greeted his nephew with a smile, then noticed the piece of meat in his hand and asked in surprise, "What's this?"

"Uncle, you can handle the meat for the medicinal dish," Chen Han said, making up an excuse as he handed the meat to his uncle.

This dog demon meat is difficult to process, and it always leaves him exhausted. After last night's incident where his lifespan was cut off, he decided to do less of this kind of energy-consuming work, as excessive consumption would always put a strain on his body.

Chen Lin nodded. It was just processing a piece of meat; it was a trivial matter.

He took the meat, drew his knife, and began to cut the skin as usual, then froze: "??????"

This meat is so tough!
