Eternity Starts From His Seed

Chapter 17: Sick?

Mortals falling sick is normal, and in this backwards era, there is a higher probability of falling sick due to the bad living conditions.

However, the bodies of cultivators have been nourished with Qi, making it much more difficult for normal illnesses to plague them.

At higher cultivation levels, unless it was from poison, curses, or other mysterious cultivation-related means, it might not even be possible for cultivators to get sick.

As a late stage qi-refiner who had nourished his physical body, there should be no reason for Manager Qin to become sick... at least not from normal means.

Taking a step closer to Ah Ji, Bubai continued to interrogate in a low voice, "Did she say anything else?"

Ah Ji looked at Bubai strangely, taking a step back, "Miss WeiWei said she will stay in Manager Qin's residence to take care of him and said none of us can enter to avoid disturbing him."

Bubai furrowed his brow, "Anything else?"

Ah Ji fell silent for a moment, scratching his head as if thinking, "Oh, and Miss WeiWei said she will be in charge of the farm until Manager Qin recovers."

When Bubai heard this, he almost cursed out loud. Son of a witch, he knew it! The magpie occupying the nest!

He had an ominous premonition that this day would come sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to be so soon. How many days had it been?

Okay, there were many months before this point, but it had only been a couple of days since he got mixed into the mess. That is why it seemed so abrupt.

It all seemed as if the demoness could continue the charade with Manager Qin, but suddenly decided to drastically change everything on a whim. What caused her to make the changes? It couldn't be him, right?

If other men discovered that a woman made changes to cater to him, he might have been overjoyed. Is there a better way to stoke a man's ego?

But Bubai wasn't happy with these changes because he knew that his situation had just gotten more dangerous, from code orange to red!

Manager Qin had been taken down. This meant the demoness had means to deal with a late-stage qi-refiner, let alone him, a mere mortal on the surface.

Heck, even if he used his full-blown Qi-refining level three cultivation, it would still be useless!

Bubai did his best to avoid changing his expression, keeping his silly smile intact, "Haha, thanks."

Out of politeness, Bubai patted his chest confidently, "Ah Ji, if there's anything you don't understand, you can come to me." Then, Bubai walked away with steady steps.

"Oh..." Ah Ji nodded as he watched Bubai walk away.

After Bubai was far away, Ah Ji patted his head, as if remembering something, "Oh, I forgot to tell him about the new field-rotation schedule due to there not being enough workers... Well, he'll find out eventually when Miss WeiWei announces her selection for the chore boy for Manager Qin."

Well, the group of workers gathered around the residence for a reason, and it was clearly not for a simple announcement. Only something important could cause them to forgo their work and waste time waiting here.

Of course, no one wanted to tell the latecomers of the situation, but most of the workers on the farm were already here. Not everyone chose to wake up late because they weren't confident they could complete the designated task on time.

Only a couple had that leisure: Tie San, Ba Fang, and the honest Chen who had just walked away.

As for the rest, they could only give up sleep, working hard everyday, and it was all for an opportunity to climb. Now, their chance was here!
