Chapter 006: System Commissary

Qingzhu returned to Qingsongguan with the big black bear, the black bear sat in the courtyard to eat, and Qingzhu returned to the quiet room to continue sleeping.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day, as soon as the morning dawned, Qingzhu got up early.

When I walked out of the quiet room, I saw the black bear leaning against the big pine tree and snoring, with a lot of saliva on his chin, not to mention how fragrant he was.

"This fool is really full of food and sleep!" Qingzhu smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Now, the entire Taoist temple is taken care of by Qingzhu alone, and he has to do a lot of things every day.

He didn't have the strength to work without breakfast, so he started boiling water for cooking.

Breakfast was a bowl of millet porridge and nothing else.

Although it's a little harder, but now Qingzhu is too poor, and there is nothing to eat well, and there is no way to do it.

Boiling a bowl of delicious millet porridge is a craft passed down to Qingzhu by the old Taoist.

The millet should be pot under cold water, and when it is almost cooked, put a few sun-dried toon leaves and sprinkle with a little salt.

That taste, not to mention how delicious it is.

As soon as he put the porridge into the bowl and was about to start eating, Qingzhu suddenly noticed that a huge shadow appeared around his body.

Looking back, the black bear actually woke up, staring at the porridge bowl with glowing eyes, and its two fat paws were wiping saliva, looking like a starving ghost reincarnated.

Qingzhu asked the black bear curiously: "Xiong, didn't you eat a lot last night, why are you hungry again so soon?"

The black bear licked his nose and said pitifully: "I used to be in the circus for a while, and it was because I ate a lot that the owner of the circus couldn't afford to raise me, so he sold me to the zoo ......"

I didn't expect this black bear's life to be quite tragic.

In fact, Qingzhu also felt that this bear didn't look like it was wild, it turned out to be a bear raised by a circus, otherwise how would he know about chocolate?

The fate of the black bear was so troubled, Qingzhu relented, so he had to take an empty bowl and pour half a bowl of millet porridge for it.

The black bear is not afraid of heat, so he drank all the millet porridge in the bowl in one bite, and after licking the bottom of the bowl, his little eyes were still staring at the bowl in Qingzhu's hand.

Qingzhu shouted angrily: "What are you doing, this is mine, don't even think about it, if you are still hungry, go to the mountains to find food for yourself, there are many wild fruits to eat in the mountains, but you can't disturb the villagers......"

This black bear is simply a big stomach, relying on the current living standard of the Taoist temple, Qingzhu can't afford to raise this bear, so he can only let it go to the mountains to find food for himself.

However, Qingzhu told the black bear that if he encounters passers-by on the mountain, he must avoid it immediately, and he is not allowed to run out to scare people, let alone go down the mountain to steal chickens and dogs in the village.

The black bear pouted and left, and Qingzhu drank up the remaining half bowl of porridge, barely half full.

Picking up the dust, he was about to clean the offering table, but when he reached the door of the temple, he smelled the smell of burning incense.

Qingzhu, who grew up in the Taoist temple since he was a child, is too familiar with this smell, could it be that there are pilgrims who come to burn incense?

Qingzhu ran to the main hall excitedly, and saw two sticks of incense inserted in the incense burner, wisps of light smoke slowly rising.

However, there were no pilgrims in the main hall.

Qingzhu guessed that this should be Liu Qian's incense.

That's right, last night, in this barren mountain range, if Qingzhu hadn't helped, Liu Qian and Li Feng would definitely have been ravaged by the black bear, and the two of them came to Qingsong to watch the incense in order to repay Qingzhu's life-saving grace.

As for Liu Chuan, he failed to complete the task of the head of the garden, and he didn't know how to deal with it when he went back, so he was naturally not in the mood to come to the Taoist temple to burn incense.

Therefore, there are only two sticks of incense in the incense burner.

There are many fine incense sticks on the offering table in the main hall, and pilgrims can take them at will.

Because the main hall is dedicated to the Sanqing Daozun, generally pilgrims will draw three fine incense sticks and light them.

These three sticks of incense are even one stick of incense.

After the incense is applied, the pilgrim will take out some money and stuff it into the merit box, but there is no rule on how much it is, it is regarded as incense donated to the Taoist temple, also known as incense money.

Qingzhu looked left and right, and after making sure that there was no one around, he put his hand into the merit box, and when he touched it carefully, there were indeed banknotes inside.

When I pulled it out, it was two large red bills of 100 yuan.

"Good guy, I finally saw the money!! Qingzhu's eyes moistened, and his heart was suddenly filled with happiness.

I looked down at the money in my hand and quickly put it in my pocket, but fortunately it was not discovered by the system.

Although 200 yuan is not much, the standard of living in this mountain is not high, and you can buy a lot of delicious things in the village below the mountain.

Qingzhu cleaned up and prepared to go down the mountain to the village store to buy some delicious food.

However, as soon as I walked to the gate, I heard the voice of the system in my head.

“…… Ding! Friendly reminder, the host should not be too far away from the green pine view. ”

"For ...... Why?!" Qingzhu asked puzzled.

"The host's range of activity is directly proportional to the reputation value of the Taoist temple, and the reputation value can also be called influence, the higher the value, the greater the host's range of activity, given that the current reputation value is too low, therefore, you cannot leave the top of this mountain. The system explained slowly.

"What do you mean, system, you mean, I can't go anywhere, I can only stay at the top of the mountain, I've been kidnapped by you, right?!"

The system did not answer and fell silent again.

Qingzhu thought to himself: If you go down the mountain, you can get rid of this damn system, and it's okay to take a risk.

Actually, Qingzhu doesn't have any big wishes in this life, he just wants to find a wife, and Wang Erya in the village is quite good, he is Qingzhu's elementary school classmate, or at the same table.

In my memory, Wang Erya at that time always deliberately lent an eraser to Qingzhu, is it obviously interesting to him......

So, Qingzhu asked the system tentatively: "System, what if I have to leave the top of the mountain?!"

"You can give it a try. The system said coldly.

"Try it, try it, do you think I'm scared?"

After speaking, Qingzhu ran out of the Taoist temple, rushed to the edge of the top of the mountain in one breath, and was just about to go down the mountain along the path, but a boulder beside him broke into two for no reason.

With a bang, half of the stone hit the ground, and Qingzhu's footsteps suddenly stopped.

Qingzhu scolded in his heart: "Count you ruthless!!"

Then, Qingzhu drooped his head and returned to Qingsongguan very depressed.

Walking into the kitchen, Qingzhu found all the food and put it on the table, he asked the system angrily: "System, take a look for yourself, there is only less than a pound of millet, you don't let me go down the mountain to buy food, do you want me to starve to death in this Taoist temple?!"

“…… Warm reminder, there is a vacant land behind the Qingsong Temple, a little reclamation, the host can grow their own food, and the food problem can be solved. ”

"I'm hungry now, you let me plant now, I'm afraid I'll starve to death before the seeds germinate!"

After speaking, Qingzhu raised a middle finger in the air.

Rumble!!!

A bolt of lightning shot towards Qingzhu's feet, but fortunately, he learned the internal strength and mental method, and retreated backwards with the fastest pace.

When I looked down again, I saw that the ground where I was standing just now had been burned and scorched.

“…… Insulting gestures are tantamount to invective, and the punishment will become more and more severe!" the system reminded again.

Qingzhu held back his anger and had nowhere to vent, but he couldn't do anything about the system.

Wiping the cold sweat on his forehead, Qingzhu chose to compromise: "Alas, okay, okay, otherwise, let's talk about farming, farming is okay, but you won't let me go down the mountain, and I don't have seeds in my hands, how can you let me farm?"

"The host can buy seeds from the system's commissary, which sells seeds for a variety of crops. ”

"There is also a commissary in the system, what can I buy, can I take a look at it now?" Qingzhu asked, touching his nose.

"Of course, welcome!" the system's voice suddenly became excited.

As soon as the words fell, in front of Qingzhu, a huge square interface appeared, with the top line written Classification, and the crop seeds column was clicked, which listed the names of many plant seeds.

The prices are ranked from low to high, the cheapest seeds are 10 yuan a seed, and the most expensive is the ginseng seed, which has countless zeros behind, and Qingzhu is too lazy to count, anyway, he can't afford it now.

"System, it seems that I have to spend my own money to buy seeds, right?"

"Of course, you go to the commissary to buy something, and people don't pay for it to give you things?" the system retorted with confidence.

"Uh......" Qingzhu was speechless for a moment.

"Host, don't you have money in your hands?" the system said suddenly.

Hearing what the system said, Qingzhu was shocked into a cold sweat.

Why didn't you say that there was a commissary before, and I just had 200 yuan in my hand, and the system popped up for me to consume, this system is too dark, right?!

However, Qingzhu thought about it again, he can't go down the mountain now, he has been kidnapped by the system, even if he has more money in his hand, there is nowhere to spend it, okay, okay, just buy something in the system commissary and pass the system.

Qingzhu's attention is focused on the seeds that are ranked at the top, because they are cheap, for example, the seeds of chili peppers have the lowest price, 10 yuan a seed.

Although chili peppers are cheap, they cannot be eaten as rice.

After choosing for a long time, Qingzhu aimed at pumpkin seeds, and felt that pumpkin was still relatively affordable.

Pumpkin is a good thing, whether it is steamed or boiled porridge and drunk, it can relieve satiety and is nutritious.

However, pumpkin seeds are more expensive than chili peppers, 20 yuan each.

"System, what do you say about the pumpkin seeds?" asked Qingzhu.

"The yield is large, the growth is fast, the non-GMO is high, and the nutrients are abundant, which can definitely make you eat healthy!" said the system in one breath.

"If it's as good as you say, I'll buy a seed and try it first!"

"I'm sorry, but I don't ship one capsule. The system immediately said coldly.

"Uh, how much can it be shipped?" Qingzhu asked with a frown.

"From 10 capsules. ”

"Can you make a bargain?"

"No, you can't. ”

"Uh, okay, okay. ”

Qingzhu took out the money and looked down and counted it, 20 yuan a piece, 10 pieces were just 200 yuan, and he didn't have a dime left.

"I'll it, system, you've calculated it, and you're going to pit me for two hundred yuan?!" Qingzhu couldn't help muttering.
