Chapter 142
That day, before dawn, Xie Juanhan heard some noise outside.
He was so sleepy he wanted to curl up under the covers.
Before he could move, a pair of warm, large hands gently covered his ears and pulled the blanket up to wrap him up.
Xie Juanhan mumbled something and quickly drifted back into a sweet dream.
Telingewei saw that he was fast asleep and bent down to kiss his hair.
After kissing him, Telingewei gently patted his chest through the blanket before slipping on her shoes and walking out.
The sky outside was just beginning to brighten.
A group of Goblin arrived and gathered under the Magic Wand Tree.
Their slender little hands reach into the soil, both to loosen the soil around the Magic Wand Tree and to allow it to use its unique Goblin magic.
Having just absorbed the Dragon Power Crystal, the Magic Wand Tree had grown considerably taller, and now, having been soothed by Goblin magic, it seemed quite happy.
The dense canopy swayed in the wind, making a "whooshing" sound.
It looks like someone is fanning themselves.
The Magic Wand Tree and the Goblin were having a great time, and they didn't even notice Telingewei until he was almost right in front of them.
"Squeak?" The Goblin immediately hopped and skipped to Telingewei's feet, tilting their heads up to look at him.
Telingewei crouched down. "Why did you arrive so early?"
"Squeak?" The Goblin looked at the sky and realized they had indeed arrived too early.
They scratched their bodies somewhat sheepishly. "Squeak."
The Goblin received a letter from Moli yesterday, informing them of new Elemental Crystal, and that these were different from the last Elemental Crystal. That's why they rushed over.
I didn't expect that we would arrive in such a rush.
"Squeak, squeak," the Goblin obediently indicated that they would wait outside for a while.
- Play with the Magic Wand Tree.
Telingewei went to the kitchen to pour out the spring water that the Cyclops had given them, then went back to hug Xie Juanhan and catch up on her sleep.
Xie Juanhan didn't truly wake up until the sun was about to rise.
He finished washing up and came out to Goblin.
The Goblin were huddled together under the Magic Wand Tree, snuggling close together like a cluster of docile mushrooms.
Xie Juanhan walked over and petted one of the Goblin: "You've come too early. You can come later next time."
"Squeak, squeak." The Goblin looked up, indicating their interest in the new Elemental Crystal and their eagerness to come and see them as soon as possible.
Xie Juanhan took out a box of Dragon Power Crystal from his spatial arm ring, opened the box, and gave one to each Goblin: "This is it."
The Goblin stretched out their long, thin hands and hugged the Dragon Power Crystal, remaining motionless.
Xie Juanhan: "It combines my Dragon Power and water element, but it mainly relies on magical elements to stably form a crystal shape."
"I feel that these Dragon Power Crystal should be more useful for planting than simple Elemental Crystal. Why don't you try turning them into fertilizer?"
"Why--"
Xie Juanhan rarely spoke so much, but the Goblin didn't react much.
He poked the nearest Goblin with his finger. "What's wrong?"
"Squeak!" The Goblin seemed to wake from a dream, "Squeak squeak squeak!!!"
-Great! These Dragon Power Crystal are excellent!
The Goblin hugged the Dragon Power Crystal, even gently pressing their cheeks against it.
Their potato-like faces have dreamy expressions.
"Squeak!"
-Such tempting energy!
Xie Juanhan: "Right? The moment I condensed it, I knew it would be very useful."
"I'm also entrusting this batch of Dragon Power Crystal to you. Do you think you can brew the corresponding fertilizer?"
Before he could finish speaking, the Goblin squeaked and loudly indicated that it was fine, no problem at all!
Xie Juanhan smiled, "Next is the reward. It'll be the same as before, Star Berry as the reward—"
"Squeak!" The Goblin quickly interrupted him, stood up straight, and looked up at him with their big, round eyes, indicating that they wanted to change the payment.
"Want to change it? Sure, what kind of compensation do you want?"
"Squeak?!"
"You want Dragon Power Crystal?" Xie Juanhan in surprise. "You want these?"
The Goblin nodded eagerly, "Squeak."
"Squeak squeak squeak!"
The Goblin said they didn't want much; they just wanted one Dragon Power Crystal in return for brewing a thousand Dragon Power Crystal!
After saying that, they looked at Xie Juanhan pleadingly.
Xie Juanhan was only surprised that they wanted this, but he didn't object. "Trading one thousand Dragon Power Crystal fertilizer for one Dragon Power Crystal is too low a reward. How about five hundred?"
Xie Juanhan offered a higher price. "If you help brew five hundred Dragon Power Crystal fertilizers, I'll give you one Dragon Power Crystal."
The Goblin looked at each other, and finally one of Goblin stepped forward and cautiously asked, "Squeak?"
Isn't that too much?
"Not much at all." Xie Juanhan stretched out two fingers and touched it. "Besides you, there are no other creatures that can help me brew crystal fertilizer."
The Goblin hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed happily, promising to brew the best crystal fertilizer.
For the first batch of fertilizer, Xie Juanhan gave them one hundred Dragon Power Crystal, and also paid an extra Dragon Power Crystal as a reward.
The Goblin, clutching the small box, hesitated for a long time before finally making another request. "Squeak."
Xie Juanhan asked in surprise, "You want to hire Moli as your little beast bodyguard?"
The Goblin nodded vigorously, indicating that they were too weak and it was unsafe for them to carry the Dragon Power Crystal.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak."
The Goblin' eyes sparkled as they said that Moli had helped them chase away the Human-Faced Smoke Bird several times, and afterwards the Human-Faced Smoke Bird never dared to come and catch them again.
Xie Juanhan softened his voice. "Then I'll take you back with Telingewei, and tell Moli while we're at it."
The Demon Wolf and Griffin still live near the farmland.
The two dragons escorted the Goblin back, and while they were at it, they told Moli about it.
Upon hearing the Goblin's request, the composed great Demon Wolf let out a low howl.
It looked intently at the Goblin, indicating that it would maintain local order.
Watching the majestic Demon Wolf from the side, Nibote imitated it, letting out a low "howl" to indicate that he would also maintain local order.
However, when his husky voice starts to wail, it sounds a bit out of place.
Even Moli turned to look at it, and it licked its lips with a self-satisfied air.
"Then it's settled. If you encounter any other trouble, you can come to Moli or come to us."
"Squeak!"
Xie Juanhan entrusted the Dragon Power Crystal to the Goblin, originally thinking that he would not see the Goblin again until he received the crystal fertilizer.
A few days later, one evening, the Goblin reappeared outside their fence.
This time, the Goblin made an even more embarrassed request. "Squeak, squeak squeak."
We want to write a letter inviting our kind to come and live in the Magic Forest.
They explained in a low voice that when they heard the Goblin of the Magic Forest had run away, leaving empty spaces, their clan split into two groups: one group stayed in their old home, while the other group rushed over.
After arriving, I found that this place was indeed very beautiful.
When this part came to a beautiful point, the Goblin's squeaks even turned into an aria.
Xie Juanhan watched as the group of Goblin earnestly and earnestly praised their kin, drawing out their words in a drawn-out tone. He couldn't help but tilt his head and laugh, leaning against Telingewei's shoulder to avoid the Goblin seeing his face.
After praising them for a while, the Goblin cautiously asked, "Squeak?"
-May I?
They explained that their relatives back home migrate with other birds in late autumn and can fly directly over here.
If their own kind could come over, their work efficiency would increase significantly.
Perhaps they won't even have to wait until next spring to finish brewing all the Dragon Power Crystal Fertilizer.
"There's no rush to brew fertilizer." Xie Juanhan's smile faded as he squatted down and earnestly asked the Goblin, "Do you really want to accept your kind and let them come and share this space with you?"
The Goblin looked up and answered earnestly, "Squeak!"
Seeing that they showed no sign of reluctance, Xie Juanhan smiled and said, "Then write a letter inviting them over."
The Goblin moved quickly.
Xie Juanhan and his group saw the Goblin coming on a pumpkin harvest day.
In late autumn, the pumpkins in Xie Juanhan's family were fully ripe.
The once dark green pumpkin leaves withered and turned yellow under the howling autumn wind, leaving only the golden vines lying dormant.
Unlike the desolate branches and leaves, the pumpkins have finally ripened.
These enormous pumpkins, as big as carriages, lay scattered across the vast plains.
Because they were fully ripe, their golden-red color turned into a rich orange-yellow, so orange-yellow that it resembled the sunlight dripping directly from the sky, forming these giant light spheres on the ground.
The pumpkin is way too big.
Xie Juanhan and the others walked around in the field, carrying heavy machetes.
When they encounter a ripe pumpkin, they have to use a machete to aim carefully and chop directly at the vine.
With a "pop," the completely dried vines were cut, and a bountiful harvest of large pumpkins could be obtained.
The pumpkin was too big; even Moli and Nibote couldn't pull it.
Ultimately, the pumpkins were carried by the dragon to the depths of the newly repaired dragon cave, where they were stored in a cold, dry place.
Just as they were working diligently, Demon Bird resembling a wild goose flew down from the sky.
These Demon Bird flew slowly in a straight line, flapping their wings.
As it flew over them, a creature peered down from the back of the Demon Bird.
They were Goblin shaped like potatoes.
Xie Juanhan knew at a glance that his fellow Goblin had arrived, so he waved to the sky and greeted them in a friendly manner.
The Goblin, who were initially a little shy, became excited as soon as they saw him wave, stretching out their tiny, slender hands and waving them vigorously.
