Cheng Lin hugged his shoulders with no expression on his face:
"It's official. I'll hand you over to the special department. Then I'll report my losses and let the officials punish you."
Wu Que, who was entangled and imprisoned by the "Magic Vine Bound", seemed to be able to understand his words.
Hearing this, his little head nodded quickly.
It seems that, in its simple view of right and wrong, it is obviously much better to be handed over to the state than to fall into the hands of this horrible human being.
Cheng Lin sneered, reached for his ID card from his pocket, and slapped it on the ground with a "pop" sound.
Said: "I'm sorry, I am from the special department, I am the official. So, I decided to hand you over to me. Now I have made a ruling and sentenced you to physical compensation. What do you think?"
As he said that, he looked dimly: "Looking at your body shape... you seem to be quite fat. Steamed or braised, it's your choice?"
Wu Que was stunned.
He looked stupidly at the certificate on the ground.
The hair all over my body is about to explode!
"Chacha! Chacha!" he yelled, shaking his head desperately.
Cheng Lin glanced at it and said, "It seems that you don't want to go public. Well, we can keep it private, which means we have to pay for it."
With that said, Cheng Lin took out his mobile phone, opened the calculator, and started pressing:
"I purchased a total of about 60 plants here, more than two-thirds of them, and I got a discount when I bought them.
The latter ones are exchanged with rewards, because they are more expensive without discounts...
But the discount is my own special treatment, so it is not included in the value of the item...
Three million supplies, a rough calculation.
One plant is worth about 50,000 yuan... Well, it is very cheap. After all, it is an artificially cultivated spiritual plant, and it is not a good thing. It is far inferior to the wild one.
I won't cheat you on this one either.
Ha, I am very fair...
Let me see, well, you ate me a total of...twenty plants?
So five times twenty is exactly one million yuan."
As he spoke, Cheng Lin clicked on the calculator. After he finished speaking, he slapped the calculation result on the ground and said, "You only need to compensate me one million yuan and we can settle the matter. How about that?"
I haven’t even included transportation fees and the like. Is it affordable enough?
It's a small business, no credit required, just bring me the money and I'll let you go, how about that?"
After saying that, he hugged his shoulders and sneered, staring at the bird in front of him that had fallen into a "shocked" state.
“…Cha…Cha…”
The black magpie was bound by the vines and could only scream helplessly.
"What? You said you have no money? Why don't you think about whether you have money in your pocket when you eat secretly?"
Cheng Lin was angry.
Wu Que lowered his head in shame.
Probably because it had foreseen its own future, it shivered like a chicken in the ice and snow.
The scene was extremely silent for a moment.
About another minute passed.
Cheng Lin's anger finally dissipated a lot.
Things have already happened, and it is naturally impossible to find a bird to compensate.
He had also been angry before.
Now that I think about it, it's probably equivalent to my "clue" mission being in vain, so I can reluctantly accept it.
It was originally a free reward, but it was eaten by this bird. It’s not a loss, just a little distressed...
"Why are you still wronged?" Cheng Lin sneered, and after a pause, he said, "You don't want it in public, and you can't get the money in private... Fortunately, I don't like to kill people randomly.
People, let’s do this. I’ll give you a third option. Work for me to pay off your debts. If you don’t want to be eaten by me, just work for me and use your labor to pay off your debts!”
"twitter?"
Cheng Lin stopped talking, just stood up, waved his right hand, and a huge light door appeared in the air.
The spiritual world opens.
The black magpie was obviously frightened by this strange door and was stunned. Then its little blue eyes saw Cheng Lin starting to go in and out, moving all the things on the ground inside.
Wait until the last box is put away.
Cheng Lin stepped forward, beckoned, released the "devil vine restraint", grabbed the black magpie in his hand, then took a step back and entered the spiritual world.
"Buzz."
There seemed to be a faint buzzing in my ears, and the world in front of me changed instantly.
A wide space, about half the size of a football field, appeared.
The ground is covered with lush grass.
In the very center of the space, there is a vibrant and strange tree species, its branches almost spreading to the top of the space.
On one of its thick and short branches, there is a "sun" that is emitting soft light and hangs upside down.
Cheng Lin squatted down and dug some soil with his hands, then nodded with satisfaction.
The World Tree seems to have the ability to protect the land.
Only a few days have passed, and the quality of the soil has improved a lot compared to when it was first brought in.
The ants and other insects that were involved have also begun to make their homes in this small fertile soil.
In the opened "medicine field" of spiritual plants.
Those colorful plants were growing happily and emitting a hazy light, which made Cheng Lin very happy.
He lifted the black magpie to the edge of the flower field.
He was tied up again with magic vines.
Cheng Lin ignored it, just picked up the pickaxe, changed into work clothes, and started digging a new "medicine field".
Since there are less than forty plants left to be transplanted, the area of the medicinal field does not need to be large, and it will be finished in a short time.
"puff."
Stabbing the shovel into the ground, Cheng Lin started transplanting.
It stands to reason that even ordinary crops, such as tomatoes and peppers, will die during the transplanting process.
But Cheng Lin, who owns the World Tree, doesn't have to worry about this problem.
He transplanted so many without any death.
After planting, he used the "qi refining pot" to draw water and watered it. Cheng Lin wiped the sweat and showed a simple smile again.
Only then did he turn his head and look at Wu Que again.
But I saw this bird stretching its neck desperately, trying to eat a flower on the edge of the medicinal field.
Just because the magic vines bound its body very firmly, even if it was about to pull its neck into "Luffy" shape, it still couldn't eat it.
"snort!"
Cheng Lin snorted coldly and said: "The thief will never change his nature! It's better to eat it. I haven't had dinner yet."
Upon hearing his words, Wu Que instantly turned to stone.
Then the next second, it retracted its neck, chirped, and shook its head like a rattle.
Seeing this, Cheng Lin's face turned slightly, "If you don't want to be burned, then be honest with me. Did you see that the spiritual energy crops here are the same as those in the medicinal fields?"
If you dare to eat, even just peck a leaf.
Our contracts will be terminated immediately.
I will pluck your hair, roast it and eat it to compensate for my losses!
Don't try to escape, this space is only so big, the entrance is in my hands, you can't escape.
Furthermore, with your newly awakened poor cultivation, I can kill you with just one finger!
Do you understand?"
After some threats, the black magpie was obviously frightened so much that the whole bird swore an oath.
He even tried to flap his wings and slapped his mouth. Cheng Lin was dumbfounded and thought that the awakening of this animal was different... No wonder the animals in No. 16 Spiritual Land are so humane.
After waving his hands to remove the vines, Wu Que was free. Sure enough, he didn't try to escape. He just waved his wings and flew twice in front of Cheng Lin.
Then driven by instinct, he looked at the World Tree.
"That tree will be your nest from now on. If you have the ability, you can find a way to build a nest by yourself, but I remember that stupid birds like magpies can't build nests at all... Forget it, it won't rain here anyway, so the nest will be
unimportant."
Cheng Lin pointed forward and said in a farmer's tone: "Your job is to take care of the medicinal fields. Once you find bugs in the medicinal fields, get rid of them for me, eat them, or throw them elsewhere."
No matter what, in short, if any spiritual plant in the medicine field is infested with insects from now on, I will take it from you!"
"As for the grassland outside the medicinal fields, don't care about it or mess with it. It is necessary to have some insects in the soil and it is a good thing.
You only have so much work to do, it's very easy.
As for the salary... considering that you are an awakened bird after all, you can be considered extraordinary.
It's only 600 yuan a month for the time being.
What to look at?
This is not low, okay.
The starting point author only works full time for 600 words a month, and at least 4,000 words a day. Even if one day less is not enough, how much more do you want if you just catch a bug?
My salary will be deducted from the one million you owe me.
Let me do the math... Well, if nothing else happens, you can pay off the debt by working for me for about 140 years.
When the time comes, I’ll let you go free, that’s it.”
The farm owner, Mr. Cheng, made the decision without any doubt.
Wu Que could only passively accept the job, with tears streaming down his face.
At this moment, it was extremely regretful. Why couldn't it have been controlled? With his status as an awakened animal, no matter which spiritual place he went to in the country, he would definitely be fed delicious food and drinks by Tris... As a result, he ended up in such a situation...
After deciding to finish the work, Cheng Lin felt refreshed. After threatening him for a while, he ignored it and walked to the edge of the spiritual world, next to his bed, table and chairs.
Sitting on the chair, he opened the drawer and took out a dark green jade bracelet. As soon as he thought about it, a lunch box was taken out.
It's just that he bought it in the city before and put it in a jade bracelet, which has a first-class preservation effect.
It's even still hot when you take it out now.
Breaking open the disposable chopsticks, he was ready to finish his meal.
The black magpie, which had been flying around in space, flew back, saw the lunch box, and swallowed.
He folded his wings carefully and landed on the other side of the table, staring eagerly without calling out.
Seeing that Cheng Lin ignored it, it came closer...and came closer...
"What are you doing? Why do you still want to eat? You weren't full just now?!" Cheng Lin was unhappy. There were twenty spiritual plants. He even wondered how a bird's stomach could miraculously be completely eaten.
Did it fall out of the space dimension stomach?
"Catch bugs for me! You can't eat until you finish catching them!" Cheng Lin slapped his chopsticks on the table and shouted, scaring Wu Que into hurriedly catching bugs.
Cheng Lin nodded and quickly finished his meal.
At this time, the "sun" on the World Tree also transformed into a silver-white "moon".
The light in the spiritual world is dim.
Cheng Lin turned on the bedside lamp and felt better.
Having eaten and drank enough, he was not ready to rush out tonight.
After thinking for a while, he stood up, rummaged through the suitcase next to him, and took out a stack of papers.
At a glance, there are twenty or thirty pages.
These are all the fourth-grade and above abilities that he currently masters.
After spending several days in Level 4 and Level 1, he finally felt that he could learn new abilities.
