Leisurely Farm Life in Beast World

Ya Li spat out a seed, "It’s just a common stalk, what’s sweet about it?"

Mo Qi casually snapped off another arm-thick stalk and handed it to Ya Li behind him, "You taste it, it’s sweet."

Mo Qi suddenly transformed into an Orc, causing Ya Li, who was hanging onto his back unsuspectingly, to tumble off.

A little annoyed and embarrassed, Ya Li picked himself up from the ground, "Dumb beast, can’t you give a heads up before you morph?"

Mo Qi scratched his head in embarrassment, "Forgot."

Then he held out the sweet stalk towards Ya Li again, "Sweet."

Ya Li took the so-called sweet stalk from him with a snort. He put it absentmindedly into his mouth and bit down.

Ouch! His usually lazy eyes suddenly widened. It truly was sweet with a juicy sweetness. Quite tasty.

He turned, snapped off a few more stalks, "Let’s go, let’s take these to Ji Nuan to try. See if she can make something delicious with them."

Mo Qi nodded, and continued chewing the sweet stalk in his mouth.

Hmm, sweet!

"Ji Nuan! Come and look at this, what is it?" Waving a green stalk in his hand, Ya Li called out to Xiu Yan and Ji Nuan.

"Huh?" Ji Nuan turned to look. A green tree branch?

As Xiu Yan ambled over, Ji Nuan finally had a clear view of what Ya Li had in his hand. Her eyes instantly shimmered, "Sugarcane?"

With a slightly puzzled look, Ya Li glanced at the green stalk in his hand and scratched his head, "Dry? Not dry, it’s quite juicy and sweet."

Amused by his words, Ji Nuan took the green stalk from him. Peeling off the hard outer layer, she nipped off a small piece. Instantly, a stream of sweet juice flowed into her mouth.

Ji Nuan frowned, this wasn’t sugarcane. Although the juice was sweet, it did not have a high sugar content.

She turned to Ya Li, "Where did you find this, can you take me there to have a look?"

Ya Li shrugged, "This was found by that foodie, Mo Qi, just over there."

Saying so, he pointed to where Mo Qi was standing.

Ji Nuan jumped off Xiu Yan’s back and ran to the spot pointed out by Ya Li.

A few plants, about her height, were growing robustly. Identifying the familiar leaves and shape, Ji Nuan broke into a grin. Judging by the shape of these plants, aren’t they corn plants?

"If I’m not wrong, this should also be a type of food. Like the Stinky Fruit and Purple fruit, it can also make us feel full. We need to remember this location, and once it’s ripe, we can pick the fruits."

They had discovered another plant that could be used as a staple food. Moreover, corn was easy to cultivate. Who would have thought that this trip would yield such a great find?

The Orcs were astonished upon hearing that this short plant was a food comparable to the Stinky Fruit and Purple Fruit. They immediately gathered around for a closer look.

Seeing their serious faces, Ji Nuan laughed, "We can’t tell much now. We can only gather the fruits to be used as food once it’s mature and bearing ears."

"Stop eating, stop eating, didn’t you hear Ji Nuan say this is an important food? If you eat it all, what will grow?" Ya Li gave two swift kicks on Mo Qi’s bottom. How dare this guy eat two corn stalks while Ji Nuan was explaining!
