She Shocks The Whole World After Retirement

1049 Very Strange

Yu Huang still had a confused expression.

She continued, “Everyone came early, but why is it that only your spiritual field is the most vigorous?” With that said, Yu Huang stared at the woman’s voluptuous figure and said with a smile, “Could it be that spiritual herbs are the same as men and like beautiful women?”

As a herbalist, the woman dealt with spiritual herbs and soil all day long. When had she ever heard anyone praise her so bluntly?

Especially since the person who praised her was a woman.

Compared to men’s compliments, women preferred compliments from the same sex. The woman blushed at Yu Huang’s praise.

She seemed to be annoyed and bashful as she glared at Yu Huang and said angrily, “You’re quite young, but you’re quite a sweet talker.”

Yu Huang said with a cheeky smile, “Madam, if you really have a secret technique, please tell me. I guarantee that I won’t spread it. When I complete the assessment mission, I’ll never appear in the Spiritual Field Base again.”

They were both herbalists, so they were competitors.

Yu Huang said this to completely dispel the woman’s concerns.

As expected, when the woman heard Yu Huang’s guarantee, her smile became even more sincere. “You’re quite tactful.” Otherwise, why was Yu Huang a Beast Tamer when she could only be a herbalist?

The woman hesitated for a moment before telling Yu Huang, “Actually, the reason why the spiritual herbs in my spiritual field are growing more vigorously than elsewhere is really not because I have any unique secret. It’s just that…” The woman raised her head and looked at the other spiritual fields.

Yu Huang noticed that the spiritual herbs in the spiritual fields the woman looked at were generally lusher than those on the mountain or below.

Yu Huang narrowed her eyes. Her intuition told her that there was something fishy about this.

In the next second, Yu Huang heard the woman say, “The spiritual fields in this base are also divided into fertile and barren. In this base, there are 200 high-quality spiritual fields. The rent of these Spiritual Fields is ten times that of ordinary Spiritual Fields. This Spiritual Field is one of the high-quality Spiritual Fields. Look, those Spiritual Fields that grow lushly are all high-quality Spiritual Fields.”

Yu Huang looked in the direction the woman was pointing at. As she had said, the spiritual herbs in those Spiritual Fields were even more vigorous than those in other Spiritual Fields.

“I see.” After Yu Huang reached out and scratched her face, there were more mud marks on her face. She looked a little comical yet innocent.

Yu Huang tilted her head and asked again, “These Spiritual Fields are all in the same space, so the spiritual soil and the spring water used for irrigation are the same. Why are these 200 Spiritual Fields special?”

The woman glanced at He Zhiqiu’s spiritual field.

At this moment, the administrator of the western district of the Spiritual Field suddenly appeared above the hill and asked Yu Huang loudly, “Which family are you from? Why haven’t I see you before?!”

After shouting, without waiting for Yu Huang’s reply, he glared at the woman warningly. “What are you talking about during work hours?!”

The woman’s expression changed slightly. Then, she hurriedly picked up her small hoe and lowered her head to work. As she worked, she said to Yu Huang in a low voice, “I don’t know the answer to what you asked just now. We’re just herbalists. Our job is to plant spiritual herbs. We don’t know anything else and don’t need to know either.” With that said, the woman ignored Yu Huang and focused on taking care of the spiritual herbs.

Seeing this, Yu Huang knew that she could no longer get information from the woman.

At this moment, the administrator walked over.

Yu Huang hurriedly stood up and told the administrator her background. “I’m an ascendant from Ascension Town. This is my first time here today. I saw that her spiritual field is doing well, so I came to ask for guidance.”

Hearing this, the administrator frowned and waved his hand impatiently. “Hurry up and go back to do your assessment. Don’t wander around the Spiritual Field. Every blade of grass here is a spiritual herb. If you step on it, you will have to compensate.”

“I’ll go back now!” Yu Huang hurriedly ran away.

After she left, the administrator stood on the field ridge where Yu Huang had been standing earlier and asked the woman, “What did that little girl say to you just now?”

The woman was afraid of causing trouble and knew she had revealed too much, so she didn’t dare to tell him everything. She only said, “She’s new and doesn’t know how to plant spiritual herbs. Seeing that my land is growing well, she asked me about planting techniques.”

Upon hearing this, the administrator stared at the woman skeptically for a long time before saying, “You know what to say and what not to say. There are countless herbalists on the continent. Your employer hired you because he trusts you. The more you say, the more you lose. Job opportunities are hard to come by. You should know your place.”

The woman nodded repeatedly.

On the other side, Yu Huang finally returned to He Zhiqiu’s spiritual field.

He Zhiqiu sat in his spiritual field with a dejected expression. It was unknown what he was thinking, but he looked like he was about to fall asleep.

“I’m back.”

Upon hearing Yu Huang’s voice, He Zhiqiu perked up and raised his head to ask Yu Huang, “Where did you go just now?”

Yu Huang remained silent.

She jumped onto the ridge above the spiritual field and counted the spiritual herb seeds planted by He Zhiqiu.

After counting, Yu Huang asked He Zhiqiu, “Mr. He, how many spiritual herb seeds did the black-hearted boss give you back then?”

He Zhiqiu said angrily, “They’re black sesame seeds!”

Yu Huang glanced at him and hurriedly changed her words. “How many black sesame seeds did the black-hearted boss give you?”

He Zhiqiu replied quickly, “200.”

Back then, He Zhiqiu really thought that the bag of seeds was filled with the seeds of the Grade 9 Spirit Grass Bone Nurturing Grass. Therefore, before planting the seeds, he very solemnly counted them before digging 200 shallow pits in the Spiritual Field and planting them with devotion.

So He Zhiqiu couldn’t be mistaken.

“200 pills?” The corners of Yu Huang’s lips suddenly curled up in a strange manner and her almond-shaped eyes suddenly narrowed into two sharp slits, but her gaze was cold.

Yu Huang then asked He Zhiqiu, “Mr. He, when do you instill spiritual power into this farmland every day?”

He Zhiqiu said, “In the morning.” The moment he arrived, he couldn’t wait to irrigate this spiritual field with spiritual power.

Yu Huang had personally seen He Zhiqiu irrigating this spiritual field with spiritual power in the morning.

“What’s wrong, Ah Huang?” He Zhiqiu didn’t understand why Yu Huang asked these questions. He said, “Is there a problem?”

What was the problem?

There was a huge problem.

“Mr. He.” Yu Huang’s expression was cold. She licked her lips and said hesitantly, “If, if I said that Mr. Philand was using you from the beginning to the end, and that he used the lie of planting the Bone Nurturing Grass to deceive you into staying willingly and providing vitality to the Cang Lang Continent’s spiritual herb base day after day, would you believe me?”

He Zhiqiu’s eyes widened.

“Wh-what?” He Zhiqiu couldn’t believe Yu Huang’s words.
