Chapter 7 Sow and Harvest

In the following days, Lin Luoran doesn’t go out. She keeps trying to sow the seeds at home. A few days later, she manages to figure out some rules of that s.p.a.ce.

The “medicine field” is enlarged by a meter. The fleece flower is in the center of the field with seven ginseng seedlings growing around it. On the border of the field and the gra.s.s, two cherry tomato plants are thriving. Both of them are luxuriant, bearing a lot of fruits which are bigger than those in the market. The fruits also give off a pleasant smell.

Two cabbages grow beside the cherry tomatoes. Their stems are crystal clear and the leaves are fresh and strong. It can be seen from their appearance that they are of high quality.

Spinach is planted at the corner on the left of the cherry tomatoes. Red pepper is competing with the cherry tomatoes, and a single cuc.u.mber stem crawls on the bamboo pole. The yellow flower of the cuc.u.mber looks even prettier than the fleece flower, which has not yet bloomed. Lin Luoran plants every kind of seeds she bought from the store. She indeed plants a cl.u.s.ter of shallots, which are almost mixed with gra.s.s.

This land looks more like a vegetable field than a medicine field!

It is not Lin Luoran’s fault. After tasting the vegetables grown in the s.p.a.ce, she can’t swallow any vegetables bought from the market because they are surrounded by thick gray smoke…

The s.p.a.ce and the spring are magical.

Based on the growth circle of vegetables, Lin Luoran believes that one day in the s.p.a.ce equals to a year in the mortal world because whatever seeds she plants at night will ripen in the next morning. It makes sense. All vegetables shall ripen in “half a year”.

The most important thing is these vegetables will stay ripe rather than go bad as long as Lin Luoran doesn’t pick them up. The cherry tomatoes will not fall and the cabbages will not rot… Everything is perfect. It’s like these vegetables are frozen at the best moment in their lives by magic.

Even if Lin Luoran picks up the ripe fruit, they will stay fresh as long as they are in that s.p.a.ce.

The gra.s.s Lin Luoran pulled up is long, thin, soft and stretchy. Lin Luoran can’t think of what to do with them, so she weaves them into a mat. She puts the mat on the ground and piles the vegetables on it. During a few days of test, the mat now is nearly full.

There is also a way to obtain more seeds of vegetables. Lin Luoran just pours some spring water on the ripe vegetables, then they will burn out their life essence and bear seeds. Lin Luoran plants new seeds, and repeatedly, the vegetables grow in the field are of higher quality than before.

Lin Luoran a.s.sumes that she may be able to grow some “magical vegetables” if she keeps doing this.

Vegetables growing now are clean and fresh. If they do evolve into magical vegetables, they may be not only edible but also medicative… This is awesome.

Nevertheless, the ginseng has given the biggest surprise to Lin Luoran.

These seeds with Reiki are out of the ordinary. Since the ginseng seedlings break through the soil, Lin Luoran discovers surprisingly that the green smoke circling them seems to feed the spring back… Lin Luoran can see clearly that the green smoke of the ginseng seedlings tends to flow toward the spring and the blue smoke over the spring is pleased by this. Even if Lin Luoran does not water the ginseng, the blue smoke will flow this way and entangle with the green smoke. Both of the two smoke will get thicker.

There must be immortal energy in the ginseng seeds. The situation never happens to the fleece flower although they are both medicines. Lin Luoran is aware that she has accidentally got something valuable!

Only watering them with the spring water is not enough for medicines like this to bear fruit. Lin Luoran has to wait. Luckily, five days in the s.p.a.ce equals five years outside…

Lin Luoran is satisfied. It’s almost time when Baojia should arrive so she transports herself out.
