Chapter 10 Stirred Up a Ginseng Nest
Chapter 10 Stirred Up a Ginseng Nest
Looking at the ginseng at her feet, Ruan Mianmian grinned foolishly.
Ginseng was the first medicinal plant she remembered from reading a plant encyclopedia.
As for why it's the first one? Because it's the most valuable in the plant encyclopedia!
Children from poor families mature early, especially an orphan like her. From a young age, she could accurately distinguish between valuable and worthless items.
Therefore, it's not surprising that she could recognize it as ginseng.
Carefully moving her feet away, Ruan Mianmian began digging for ginseng with her bare hands. She first dug a small hole, then followed the veins of the ginseng tendrils deeper and deeper.
But as she dug, Ruan Mianmian began to have doubts. Was this really ginseng? She remembered that ginseng was only the size of a palm, shaped like a human, with long tendrils.
So, what is this thing in front of her?
Ruan Mianmian stared blankly at the radish plus version she had dug up, deeply filled with doubt.
Holding the "giant radish" in her hands, Ruan Mianmian asked the system, "System, is this the energy you mentioned?"
If the system had a tail, it would definitely be shaking wildly right now.
"Yes, host, hurry up and recycle it!" The system urged, eager to absorb the energy.
Ruan Mianmian silently recited "reclaim," and the "radish" in her hand vanished. A busy signal came through the system: it was updating...
Hearing the system update notification, Ruan Mianmian stopped paying attention to it. Now that she was here, she wanted to observe the situation carefully.
Ginseng, or plants in general, grow in large patches. Since one has been found here, there must be others nearby. Ruan Mianmian needs to search carefully.
The system was updating, and she didn't dare go far because she couldn't check the level of danger nearby, and she was afraid of something unexpected happening.
She conducted a thorough search of the area within two meters of the ginseng plant.
Believe it or not, look what she discovered!
She discovered a large patch of ginseng connected together!
Ruan Mianmian didn't care about anything else and quickly found a tree branch to start digging a hole, determined to take all the ginseng in the vicinity.
Why wipe them all out without leaving any minor ones? Are you kidding? Who knows if she'll ever come back here again? If we don't take them all now, who knows who'll benefit!
Anyway, this continent is rich in resources, so she might as well play the role of "Extinction Master" for once!
As she dug, she carefully observed her surroundings; at this point, the system was unreliable, and she had to rely on herself.
Whether it was a matter of timing or she was incredibly lucky, she managed to dig up all the ginseng without any unexpected incidents.
At this moment, the ground beneath her became uneven and pitted.
After the system update, the system was extremely surprised to see the mess on the ground. Then, looking at the small mountain of debris next to Ruan Mianmian, the excited electronic voice sounded again.
"Host, host, hurry up and update!" At this moment, the system was as excited as a dog seeing meat when it saw this pile of ginseng!
Ruan Mianmian pointed to a pile of ginseng on the ground and said "Collect," and the ginseng disappeared into thin air. At the same time, the pile of ginseng appeared in her storage space.
Seeing that she had stored these ginseng, the system couldn't help but say, "Host, let me update the system so that you can use it better and more clearly. As energy is replenished, some functions will gradually be unlocked."
Ruan Mianmian rolled her eyes when she heard its words. Of course, if the system could materialize, Ruan Mianmian might give it a good punch.
"It took you almost an hour to absorb one ginseng. How long would it take if you absorbed all of this?"
Upon hearing Ruan Mianmian's question, the system carefully calculated the time.
"It will take about 38 hours."
Upon hearing this, Ruan Mianmian let out a cold laugh.
"Yes, it will take 38 hours! During these 38 hours, I'll be helpless and unable to call for help. By the time you finish updating and absorbing, my flesh will probably be completely devoured!"
