Chapter 4 The Strange Tower

With Ji Zhimo's help, Ji Xing'er's enrollment went very smoothly. He even bought Ji Xing'er a mobile phone and reported Ji Shi'an's safety. Ji Zhimo also responded to Ji Xing'er's doting on her.

After all, we all grew up together.

Ji Shian finally felt relieved after learning that his little sister had entered school safely. Next, he had to consider how he could repay everyone for the help he had received over the years.

Let's not talk about it remotely, let's just say that Ji Shi'an will find a way to pay back the 10,000 yuan that Ji Zhimo borrowed.

In fact, Ji Shi'an had already made a decision. As early as 5 years ago, Ji Shi'an had discovered a wild ginseng in the mountains. Although he didn't know how old it was, wild ginseng must have become more valuable as time went by. At that time, Ji Shi'an found a wild ginseng in the mountains.

An didn't pick them, she marked them and kept them in captivity.

Due to the country's progress and development in recent years, many virgin forests have been extensively destroyed, and some rare wild plants have become increasingly rare.

As for the wild ginseng, it was even rarer. Ji Shian had never thought of selling it before, but it was not easy to find a buyer. Xing'er was in a hurry for money, so he asked Ji Zhimo for help.

Now that Ji Xing'er's affairs are stable, Ji Shi'an has also come up with the idea of ​​​​the wild ginseng. He plans to sell it at a high price and pay back all the money he owes. Although he doesn't know how much he can sell it for, he thinks it should be about the same.

How many.

Following the signs along the road, Ji Shi'an quickly came to the wild ginseng.

The branches and leaves have grown more and more lush. Ji Shi'an smiled and kept moving his hands, preparing to start planting.

Qiyun Mountain is vast, and since it has not been damaged by humans, there are still many rare animals and plants in it. Wild ginseng has been encountered before when hunting with the hunting team in the mountains, so Ji Shi'an naturally used this method of gathering ginseng.

It's within reach.

Ji Shi'an dug up the wild ginseng carefully, fearing that he would damage the roots of the wild ginseng. You must know that the price of an unharmed wild ginseng has doubled.

But what Ji Shi'an didn't expect was that the roots of this wild ginseng grew very deep, and even after digging a long distance, they didn't reach the bottom.

"hiss!"

Ji Shian suddenly took a breath. While digging for ginseng, his finger was scratched by something, and blood immediately flowed out.

Ji Shian looked at the wound, but fortunately it was not too deep.

After a while, Ji Shian dug out the object that scratched his finger, which was a small and exquisitely shaped tower.

The small tower is copper-green in color, about half the size of a palm, and is covered with soil. I don't know what material it is made of. It looks a bit like bronze and a bit like iron, but it looks quite old.

Ji Shian's blood still remained on the top of the small tower, as if it was shining red.

"Isn't this an antique?"

Ji Shi'an muttered for a moment, but didn't think too much about it. Although the small tower looked a little old, it was beautifully shaped and would be good to take home as an ornament.

He put it into his pocket conveniently, and then concentrated on digging up the ginseng.

Finally, after more than ten minutes, Ji Shi'an dug up the entire wild ginseng plant. Thinking that such a complete wild ginseng could be sold at a very good price, Ji Shi'an couldn't help but feel happy.

After returning home, Ji Shi'an placed the wild ginseng, thinking that he would go to Huzi's father later. He knew many people to see if anyone would be willing to take the wild ginseng.

When Ji Shian was washing his hands, he touched the pocket of his pants and took out the small tower he had just dug out.

“I almost forgot about this”

There was still a lot of dirt around the small tower, but what Ji Shi'an didn't notice was that the blood stains on the small tower began to disappear at some point. Of course, Ji Shi'an didn't notice these details at all.

The small tower was washed with clean water and restored to its original appearance. Ji Shi'an couldn't help but look at it carefully.

Although the small pagoda is small, it has nine floors and has all the structure it should have. Ji Shi'an couldn't help but exclaim that it was exquisite.

After cleaning, although it still looks dull, it still makes people feel that this small tower is extraordinary.

After studying it for a while, Ji Shian really couldn't see any clues, so he put it on the table in the room and turned around to go to Huzi's house.

Unfortunately, Huzi's dad went to the city to do some business and would not be back for two days. He could only borrow a phone from the village chief and told Huzi's dad about the wild ginseng. Huzi's dad was also happy and immediately said no.

Question, he said that wild ginseng is in high demand in the city, and he promised to help Ji Shi'an bring customers when he comes back.

Seeing that the matter was settled, Ji Shian breathed a sigh of relief. He and Huzi thought it was okay, so they ran for a walk in the mountains again. After a few hours, they only hunted two hares, which was better than nothing.

Ji Shi'an, who was carrying the rabbit, hummed a little tune and rushed home, but he couldn't help but feel disappointed. Normally, this girl Ji Xing'er would definitely make a fuss about Ji Shi'an roasting the hare. Now that he was gone, Ji Shi'an

An is also feeling empty. After all, Ji Shi'an has been both a father and a mother since he was a child.

"this!"

As soon as Ji Shi'an pushed open the courtyard door, the sight in front of him frightened him so much that the hare dropped to the ground.

In the small vegetable garden in the yard, two huge, bright red tomato plants stood upright in the soil, almost as high as the yard wall.

Ji Shi'an has never seen tomatoes before, but have you ever seen such a big tomato?!

Ji Shian rubbed his eyes to make sure that he was not dreaming, and hurriedly walked towards the small vegetable garden.

The small vegetable garden usually grows some small vegetables, some potatoes, tomatoes, etc., but the tomatoes in the vegetable garden have not yet come to fruition.

But now the tomato that appeared in front of Ji Shi'an was not only very big, it was already covered with eight tomatoes, each tomato being twice as big as an ordinary tomato.

He didn't know if it was Ji Shi'an's illusion, but he even felt that there was a faint light flowing on the tomato.

Now even a fool knows that this tomato is no ordinary tomato.

Ji Shi'an gently picked one. You may not believe it, but this tomato actually has a very fresh aroma. Yes, you heard it right. As the most common vegetable, it has an aroma at this time.

Ji Shian couldn't help but swallowed. The tomato on his hand was so tempting that people couldn't help but want to take a bite.

But Ji Shi'an still held back. After all, he was still confused about what happened to these two tomato plants, and he didn't dare to speak so rashly.

After thinking for a long time, Ji Shi'an still couldn't figure out why the tomatoes in the vegetable garden suddenly changed so much.

Ji Shi'an simply picked all the tomatoes, and the rhizomes, which were almost taller than the courtyard wall, were trimmed to a normal shape by Ji Shi'an. After all, for such a strange thing, Ji Shi'an felt that it would be better if fewer people knew about the appointment.

At this moment, Ji Shi'an was holding his head with both hands and staring stupidly at the eight tomatoes in front of him for half an hour.

"Nothing special happened today, except digging ginseng and hunting two hares with Hu Zi."

"Oops! By the way, how could I forget it?"

At this moment, Ji Shian's eyes glanced at the small tower placed quietly on the table, and he immediately picked it up.

"Could it be it?"

But looking left and right, I didn't see anything strange about the small tower.

Ji Shian frowned for a moment, and suddenly seemed to understand something, "Could it be?!"

Ji Shi'an remembered that when he cleaned the small tower today, he did it next to the vegetable garden.

"Could it be that the water used to clean the small tower flowed into the vegetable garden?"

With a full greeting, Ji Shi'an took a bowl, filled it with someone, and then threw the small tower into the bowl. He decided to verify it.

Five seconds after Ji Shi'an threw the small tower into the bowl, Ji Shi'an was surprised. The bowl of clear water slowly turned green as visible to the naked eye, a crystal clear green.

Ji Shi'an took out the small pagoda in the bowl, but saw that the patina of the small pagoda was also a bit darker.

"Is it possible that the bubbles have faded?"

Ji Shian also thought with a smile, but Ji Shian picked up this bowl of crystal clear green water and poured it into the tomatoes that had just been trimmed.

Then he moved a bench and stared at the tomatoes in front of him.

Sure enough, something surprising happened. The tomato branches and leaves that had just been pruned were already growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This scene really shocked Ji Shi'an. In just ten minutes, this tomato plant grew rapidly and did not stop until it was shorter than before pruning. However, this time the fruit had just grown and was not yet mature.

"Damn! This is simply fairy water! It only takes ten minutes. What is the concept of letting the plants bear fruit directly? And judging from the tomatoes I picked just now, the quality is definitely ten times better than ordinary tomatoes."

Ji Shi'an couldn't help but curse. After all, what happened in front of him shocked him too much. It would not be an exaggeration to call the scene before him a miracle.

It seemed that this magical little tower was really a treasure. After confirming this, Ji Shian immediately started repeated experiments.

Ji Shi'an, who worked hard until the evening and didn't even have time to eat dinner, finally got to know Xiaota a little bit.

The water after soaking in the small tower, Ji Shi'an tentatively calls it spiritual water, has some unimaginable ripening effects on plants, and the quality of the water is definitely better than ordinary fruits and vegetables.

But Ji Shi'an also discovered that the small tower is not endless. After each soaking, the spiritual water will be a little darker, and the ripening time will be gradually reduced, but it is still hundreds of times faster than natural growth.

Finally, after seeing that the patina of the small tower slowly became dull, Ji Shian did not dare to try again. He was afraid that the small tower would really turn into scrap metal by then.

Looking at the tomatoes, potatoes and cabbage all over the house, Ji Shi'an couldn't help but regret a little. If he had known better, he would have used Lingshui to drink some wild ginseng. The older the wild ginseng is, the more valuable it will be.

But Ji Shi'an, who was doing experiments at the time, didn't think about it at all. He looked at the small tower in his hand and just hoped that it wouldn't turn into scrap metal.
