Chapter 18: Could It Be Such a Coincidence?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After Xi Hongshi left, the willow forest regained its calm.

Xiang Ye controlled Jiang Xiaocheng to carry a hoe and clear the surrounding weeds with the willow tree as the center.

It was unknown how the weeds grew, but Xiang Ye cleared up one batch after another endlessly.

If it grew further away, Xiang Ye would not care. However, if it grew at the foot of the willow tree and snatched its nutrition, he would be unhappy.

Therefore, as long as he discovered the weeds, Xiang Ye would remove them all without mercy.

“Hey, does this count as me hoeing myself? Do it gently, so that it’s painless.”

He glanced at the ground and said mockingly.

Wiping nonexistent sweat from his forehead, he threw the hoe away.

Having cleared the weeds that had quietly grown in the middle of the night, he looked up at the willow tree that was growing lusher in front of him and felt satisfied.

The branches on the outer edge of the willow tree had fallen to within a foot of the ground. With the willow tree as the center, the dense willow branches formed an outer circle. Xiang Ye gently parted the willow branches blocking the way and burrowed straight into the shade. Then, he found a suitable spot and sat down.

A breeze blew past, stirring the green willow branches and making a rustling sound. The shade of the tree was much cooler than the vicious sun outside, so Xiang Ye liked staying here more and more.

“Ding-dong!” A notification sounded. Xiang Ye looked in the direction of the sound and saw the vibration of the phone.

“Text message?”

“Let’s see what it is.”

He walked straight over and plugged out his phone that was charging.

“Oh, right, no one will charge my charger now that Xi Hongshi has left. I have to use it sparingly.”

Xiang Ye could not be bothered to worry about the source of the phone charger. If he was not wrong, it should have been bought with money. After all, the plastic buckets, pots, pans, hoe, and other daily necessities were all brought over by Xiang Ye.

The 200 yuan that had been confiscated from him had long been returned to Xi Hongshi. Anyway, it was useless to Xiang Ye.

As for the daily necessities, it didn’t matter if Xiang Ye kept it or not.

After turning into a piece of land, he had almost forgotten some of the daily actions of human life.

“Congratulations on getting rich, my friend + sister : 855 *******. Come and buy the lottery, there has already been 8 consecutive jackpot. You don’t want to miss this opportunity. You’ll know if it’s accurate once you buy it!”

“…”

“It’s really this!!”

Xiang Ye quickly pressed the delete button.

“Ding-dong!”

There was another ring, accompanied by the vibration of the phone. Another message had arrived.

“Are you busy? I’m President Li. If you’re not busy, you don’t have to pay any fees to help me. You can do missions for two hours a day and you can do whatever you want. You can just use your phone at home and earn 100,000 yuan a month. I’ll…”

“How annoying. Why are there trashy messages every day?”

Xiang Ye looked at these messages that affected his battery angrily. He wanted to stop them from sending trashy messages, but he did not know what to do.

For some reason, these messages had been sent to his phone openly over the past few days. Just deleting them every day would waste a little time.

“Delete it, delete it, delete it all! Out of sight, out of mind!”

Looking at the hundred or so unopened trash messages in the information bar, Xiang Ye felt furious.

In the era of the recovery of spiritual energy, could these things still exist? Why couldn’t those powerful espers capture all of them?

All the jewelry discounts, XX Finance, and spa clubs had been deleted.

Xiang Ye held his phone and chose the messages in batches. Then, he pressed the confirmation button to delete them…

“Eh? There’s a normal message here. From the Superpower Administration in Jiangnan City?”

A normal message was hidden in the batch of messages that he had selected. If not for Xiang Ye’s quick reaction, it might have been deleted.

“Orange Alert: Due to the appearance of a giant crocodile in Jiangnan City’s forest park, it has officially been closed. Please don’t go during the holidays. Citizens in the surrounding area of the forest park, please reduce your travels for the time being and be prepared to fight the vicious beast.”

“A crocodile? A vicious beast?”

Xiang Ye looked at the time of the message and saw that it was already 10 days ago.

“Why is there a crocodile in the forest park? And it’s even a vicious beast?”

After a brief pause, Xiang Ye memorized it and took a closer look to see if there was any other important information. After that, he pressed the confirmation button.

“Delete it, delete it. After that, I’ll search for information about vicious beasts on Baidu.”

Seeing the trash messages on the phone disappear quickly, Xiang Ye felt as light as the end of a spring cleaning. If he doesn’t delete these messages from time to time, the phone would quickly be filled.

Not only would it affect the smoothness of the phone, but it would also cost electricity!

“Ding-dong~!”

“It’s time for another activity. Bai Jiale, Qi Pai, Bu Yu! Sending you 88+/****”

“!!!”

“Ahhhhhhh!! Again? It’s neverending?”

Seeing another trashy message, Xiang Ye’s anger began to rise. He glared at the phone in his hand, wishing he could hammer the person who sent the trashy message to death.

“Bear with it… Bear with it… I still have to keep my phone… to take photos of the little willow tree…”

“Don’t be angry… Don’t be angry…”

“Life is like…”

After spending a long time reciting an incantation, Xiang Ye finally began to calm down.

“Ding-dong… Ding-dong… Ding-dong…”

“Howl!!!”

“F*ck you!!!”

“Don’t let me catch you. If I catch you, I’ll dig up your ancestral grave!!!”

Xiang Ye was furious and decided to add the WeChat number in the message immediately.

“Let me see your WeChat ID. You’d better not have shared your location in your WeChat Moments. Otherwise, if I find the address, I’ll get Xi Hongshi to dig up your ancestral grave. I mean what I say!”

With that, he opened the message.

“Red Alert! Red Alert! A giant crocodile vicious beast in the forest park in Jiangnan City has escaped the control of the Superpower Administration and has fled to the west. Please pay attention… Citizens living on XX Road and… XX Street and… Please avoid the escape route of the giant beast as soon as possible. Citizens on this route, please leave immediately. I repeat, please leave immediately. This is not a drill… This is not a drill… The out-of-control giant beast is difficult to resist… Don’t think that you’ll be safe just by hiding in the house… Please leave as soon as possible.”

Three similar messages in a row made it seem like things were extraordinary.

“Count yourself lucky!”

Taking a closer look at the message he’d received this time, Xiang Ye was glad that it was no longer a junk text.

“Hoho~ The crocodile escaped? Why didn’t they control it well? Is the Superpower Administration of Jiangnan City so useless?”

Seeing that it had nothing to do with him, Xiang Ye switched to gloating over their misfortune.

“They can’t even deal with a crocodile. The strength of the espers in Jiangnan City is worrying.”

“Hahaha, I wonder where the crocodile went. It seems to be quite capable to be able to escape from them.”

Xiang Ye naturally did not know the level of espers in Jiangnan City, but through Xi Hongshi’s explanation, he had a rough understanding.

In short, he was countless times stronger than the espers in Xiangxi. Otherwise, Xi Hongshi would not have come to Jiangnan City to seek help.

“Wait? Escape to the west?”

“Why does it sound so familiar?”

“Yes, Xi Hongshi seems to have said that my land is the western suburbs of Jiangnan City.”

“!!!!”

“Damn, it can’t be such a coincidence, right?”

As if in response, Xiang Ye immediately felt the ground tremble from not far away. It was rumbling towards his willow forest.
