Together With the System to Become a Pharmacist at Once a Doctor
Chapter 43's
“This does not fit together!” said the man. “Are you sure?”
“Yes. So please send my house to them.”
“Oke.”
There were saplings of trees, but no one had come to buy them at this time. In addition, the types of plants he chose are very diverse, including medicinal plants, economic plants, and ornamental plants. All of this together looks like a hodgepodge with no thought going into it.
“Ah. I thought, You're going to work too hard for nothing.”
Wang Yao ignored him and still insisted on taking the saplings. He made a quick settlement and then the sale delivered the seedlings to the foothills of Nanshan by car.
“Are you going to plant it on a hill?!” Looking at Nanshan hill, the seller was surprised.
“Yes. What's wrong?" Wang Yao asked with a smile.
“Nothing. If you manage to plant saplings, I'll give you all the saplings you need for free in the future!” said the seller.
“Are you serious?” Wang Yao asked.
“I'm not a gentleman, but I'll keep my word!” The man patted his chest.
“OK, this is a deal!”
“Deal.”
The man helped Wang Yao deliver the seedlings to the hill and he saw medicinal plants growing in the fields.
“What is this?” As a child entrepreneur, the man knew nothing about herbs.
“Renquet medicine.”
“Renquet medicine? It's almost winter, but they're still green. Are they green all year?”
Wang Yao hesitated and said, "Yes."
“They look good,” replied the man.
The man left when he put a bunch of young trees on the ground but not before leaving Wang Yao his business card.
Wang Yao was busy as the man left. He walked around the cottage many times and then he took out a book, the Five Lines Method of the system to read carefully. He made a mark on the ground according to the book, then he went back to the cottage to pick up his shovel. He started digging holes in the ground and then he started planting trees.
It was the most basic form of battle he had learned from the book he had been studying for a while. That's a trick, actually. The trees and rocks of the hill are the base and then there will be illusions when laid out successfully. People could enter from the entrance, but they would see the illusion of a tree or stone that actually did not exist, and this would prevent them from entering.
Since this was the first time, Wang Yao was not sure what to do. This was in the legends, so he had to follow the ancient customs done in the past. He simply dug and planted according to the description of the battle. Arbors and bushes also work with each other by intertwining and overlapping.
He needed to dig a hole and plant a tree, so his progress was slow. He had just planted a few rows of trees to the east of the cottage and the herb field, but it was now dark. He watered them with mixed ancient tears and then he returned home for dinner. Then he went back to the hill.
The next day was the same.
Then, there is gossip in the village because strangely trees are planted in winter.
“Do you that Fenghua boy has done something crazy!”
“Planting trees on a hill?”
“Let him be a fool. That's none of our business.”
“Nanshan Hill is very nice but now it has become a waste!”
“This is very wasteful. Nanshan Hill has been there for many years and there are no plants that can be planted well. So it's a good thing it's contracted. I heard that he has been contracting the hill for 20 years and he has promised that he will give 20 thousand yuan to the village every year!”
“Hm. He shouldn't have jumped into the river again!”
The rumor was heard by Wang Yao's parents.
“Yao, you planted a tree on the hill?” Zhang Xiuying asked at dinner.
“Ya, what's up?”
“It's almost winter, so why are you planting trees?”
“Yes. One of my college classmates was making microbial fertilizer and she heard that I was growing plants at home, so she wanted me to try some fertilizer. He seems to be in a hurry, so I bought some saplings to try it.” Wang Yao had thought of an excuse to fool his parents, but he was still so relaxed when lying.
“Oh, so? It's okay then.” Zhang Xiuying was relieved when he heard that. He thought his son was heading towards a dead end again.
Wang Yao heaved a sigh of relief after secretly escaping from the meeting with his parents.
After which, his parents turned a deaf ear to the gossip in the village and Wang Yao was able to handle the fields peacefully. He practiced to awaken his Qi, studied the battles and read the verses from the scriptures, which was a full day for him.
Wang Yao took nine days to finish the battle. The sun sets on the ninth day and it starts to get dark.
It's finished!
Wang Yao looked at the illusory battle formed by the young tree and the rock of the hill. He had retreated and then he felt dizzy all of a sudden.
“Ah? What's going on?" He was stunned because he clearly remembered that there was nothing in front of him but now there was a young tree in front of him. It was over a meter tall and as thin as a little finger.
“So, this is the power of illusion war?”
Wang Yao walked back and then he walked out of the hut according to the path defined by the battle. He looked from the outside and he found that the hut was surrounded by rows of young trees. There was something strange when he took a closer look. There was one more row of saplings in front of him and they were stronger than the ones he had planted just now. They were actually three times stronger. He reached out to them but there was nothing there. The tree sapling disappeared as he approached. In fact, there was only a stone in front of him and half-man-sized trees on both sides.
He did use hill stones in battle but the largest one was only tens of centimeters tall because he could not move the larger one. However, this stone was much larger.
“Is this really a battle power?!”
Wang Yao retreated and then the stone disappeared and became a tiller again. This illusory battle was extremely strange. The saplings are now too small, so it will take time for them to play their own role.
When the battle was over, Wang Yao spent less time in the Five Line Method and more time reading and learning from Natural Classics. He bought other famous Taoist scriptures as references, such as Daode Jing, Zhuangzi, Huangting Jing and so on.
On this day, the sky was dark and the breeze was cold.
