Chapter 222: Trade with Roger 3
“It can let Rose travel through time-space with me?”
Qin Si Feng: “Otherwise, why do you think Qin Si Mian specifically asked Sang Chu to ask me for this umbrella back? Although this is something rewarded to her, it belongs to me. Without my consent, even Sang Chu cannot use this umbrella, let alone you, an outsider.”
Roger did not doubt Qin Si Feng’s words at all. After all, his strength was evident. If he were to confront Qin Si Feng, he would gain no advantage.
Roger handed over the dozen or so storage rings he had prepared to Sang Chu: “These were just prepared. See if they are enough. If not, I can make another trip to bring you more.”
Sang Chu exchanged some items with him. Seeing that one storage ring was full of magic pet little elves, she casually handed it to Qin Si Feng: “Senior, do you think these are enough?”
There were four or five storage rings full of magic beast cards, enough to form a large beast army. Moreover, they appeared to be third and fourth-tier magic beasts, with combat power several levels higher than those bought by Sang Jing Wen and the others.
Qin Si Feng glanced at Sang Chu and then at the storage rings in her hand, saying, “You don’t need to give them to me. Tell me when you’ve prepared the place, and I’ll move. For now, get out, I want to sleep.”
Roger and Sang Chu did not disturb him further. After they left his house, it instantly vanished without a trace.
“Thank you.”
“You’re welcome. I’m helping for free, and we both get what we need. By the way, I told Rose to see if there’s anything in the base she can use that you can take back for her. Let’s go take a look.”
Sang Chu led the way, with Roger following silently behind her. As soon as they entered the greenhouse, they heard laughter coming from inside, which made Roger pause. It had been a long time since he had heard Rose laugh so heartily.
Rose was a sheltered young lady who longed for life outside. However, due to her health, she had never left the castle. Her first friend in life was Roger. Later, her parents went to the Imperial Capital to find a doctor who could cure her illness, and they never returned.
In fact, Roger knew that Rose’s parents were gone when the old butler came to find him. The Magic Continent was not as safe as it is now. The roads were filled with either bandits or magic beasts. Without the Cold Attack, at night, the wilderness was a hunting ground for bandits and magic beasts.
Rose’s parents were ordinary people. Despite hiring wizards to protect them, they still did not return.
The old butler knew his thoughts and repeatedly tried to persuade him, hoping he would become the new butler and take care of Rose’s daily life and meals. However, he dared not accept the job at first.
Rose was the first person who did not distance herself from him because of his background. She even let him into the castle to rest when his uncle and aunt kicked him out, and when he was starving and freezing. She also gave him warm soup and hot meals.
He thought Rose had always been a very introverted girl, but he didn’t expect her to laugh so heartily and unrestrainedly.
Roger: “When Rose becomes a Demon Spirit, can I bring her to find you?”
Sang Chu looked at the tall, gentlemanly man beside her, nodded, and smiled, “Of course. Rose is my friend, and you are both welcome to visit. By then, Hai Shi should be built.”
“Yes, I hope City Lord Sang’s Hai Shi prospers.”
Sang Chu: “Thank you for your good wishes. Let’s go in.”
She went in first, only to see Xiao Bao Yu and Ma Si Yu, two lively characters, covered in vines and dancing with extremely uncoordinated limbs.
Ma Si Yu was also singing at the top of his lungs with his off-key voice, while Xi Rui and Ma Ya Ru stood far away, covering their ears with expressions of despair. Only Xiao Bao Yu was extremely supportive.
Rose had seen Sang Chu and Roger early on and, with a smile that made her eyes crinkle, shouted loudly, “Sang Sang, Roger!”
“Cough cough!!!”
Ma Si Yu was startled and choked, coughing violently. Xiao Bao Yu quickly ran to his side and patted his back:
“Are you okay, A Yu! How could you be so careless? What if your King of Singers’ voice is ruined!”
Sang Chu blinked her eyes, looking at the two of them in disbelief: “King of Singers…?”
Ma Ya Ru was too embarrassed to speak. Xi Rui saw him walk over to Sang Chu and, remembering the commotion the two had caused earlier, couldn’t help but shiver: “Ma Si Yu claims to be the King of Singers and that he sings very well. Xiao Bao Yu believed him and listened. After listening, he believed him even more.”
Sang Chu’s eyes widened. This…
Ma Ya Ru smiled awkwardly, “Sister Sang, the children are just playing. One dares to say it, and the other dares to believe it.”
Sang Chu: “Alright, as long as they’re happy.”
As soon as Ma Si Yu heard this, he became energetic and quickly ran up to Sang Chu: “Sister Sang, you also think I sing well, right? I also think I sing very well, but my sister says I’m tone-deaf. But Xiao Bao and Sister Rose both think I sing well. Listen again, I’ll sing another song for you!”
As he said this, just as he was about to burst into song, Ma Ya Ru covered his mouth: “My little ancestor, please stop your magic. If you keep singing, your sister’s ears will be gone!”
“Mmmph mmmph mmmph!!!”
Ma Si Yu struggled desperately, wanting to prove that his singing was fine. However, their bickering made Rose laugh even more happily.
Sang Chu looked at the siblings speechlessly and walked into the greenhouse with Roger: “Sorry, the children are being rowdy.”
“It’s fine, as long as Rose likes it.”
Rose: “Sang Sang, Roger, are you done with your business?”
Sang Chu: “Yes, Roger and I came to find something for you that you can use, and then he can take it back for you.”
Rose looked at Sang Chu joyfully and said, “Can I?”
“Of course. You can choose what you like, and I’ll help you pack it.”
Speaking of which, Sang Chu suddenly remembered something. She looked at Ma Ya Ru: “Ya Ru, are there any Milk Fruits and Demon Peaches left in the kitchen?”
Ma Ya Ru was still covering Ma Si Yu’s mouth. Hearing Sang Chu’s words, she quickly replied, “There should be some left. If you need them, I’ll get them now?”
“Yes, take as many Milk Fruits as you can. For the Demon Peaches, take half, as this is the senior’s food, and we need to leave some for him.”
“Okay, I’ll go now.”
Ma Ya Ru left the greenhouse with Ma Si Yu and Xiao Bao Yu, and the atmosphere suddenly became somber.
Rose looked at Sang Chu and Roger and pointed to some small blue flowers nearby, asking, “Sang Sang, what kind of flowers are those? They look so beautiful. Roger, can I grow some too?”
Following her gaze, they saw a patch of small blue daisies that looked like weeds. Sang Chu herself didn’t know what they were. She walked over and saw that all these small flowers were growing along the edges of the field ridges.
“These don’t look like the Monster Plants I brought back?”
Roger: “These are Spirit Devouring Grass. They usually grow near Demon Plants and Spirit Plants. Their roots steal spiritual energy from the Demon Plants and Spirit Plants, but the flowers are harmless. You can gather all these flowers, and I’ll take them back for Rose.”
“These flowers are okay?”
“Yes, only the roots and stems of the Spirit Devouring Grass absorb spiritual energy. If you have time, you can dig them out. Although their roots and stems are small, the spiritual water they contain is extremely pure.”
“Alright, let’s get them out together then.”
