Chapter 208

C208 – The White Earth

They positioned themselves in the kitchen to consume their meal.

Su Ming refrained from eating for the entire day.

Hunger began to significantly affect him.

Completing his meal brought Cao Mingyuan to his thoughts.

“Father, Mother, are you aware of Cao Mingyuan’s current hospital location?”

Lee Sumei pondered briefly before responding, “It appears he has been discharged and is now receiving IV treatment at the clinic.”

The news had circulated throughout the village by the afternoon.

Even Lee Sumei, seldom leaving her home, was informed of it.

The video, in particular, became widely known; it was a common possession among villagers.

“I will pay him a visit then.”

“Alright,” Lee Sumei expressed no objection.

Su Ming proceeded to his bedroom.

He prepared a water bottle by dissolving a Body-stretching Pill in it.

Subsequently, he positioned a unique plant carefully in a corner.

He then secured his room and made his way to the clinic directly.

Within the clinic.

A corner was occupied by the doctor and a young nurse from the police station.

They engaged in watching a video and shared a laugh.

Upon noticing Su Ming, they acknowledged him with a nod and a greeting.

Being locals of the same village facilitated their mutual acquaintance.

It was common knowledge that Su Ming’s visit was to see Cao Mingyuan.

Acknowledging them with a smile, Su Ming headed towards a side room filled with several beds.

Among these, a bed was occupied by an individual.

This individual was Cao Mingyuan.

“Cao Mingyuan exclaimed to Su Ming about becoming a sensation, receiving numerous gifts that afternoon, and queried about the unfolding events.”

Cao Mingyuan eagerly sat up upon spotting Su Ming, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

During his hospital stay, he was frequented by numerous visitors.

Cao Mingyuan was left bewildered, unclear about the cause of the attention.

Upon his return to the village, the fervor escalated.

The clinic became a hub of activity with his arrival, filling the room to its capacity.

All but Cao Mingyuan were privy to the situation’s details.

“Have you not checked your mobile device?”

Su Ming gave a playful blink.

With a sigh, Cao Mingyuan revealed his phone was inoperative.

“Are you truly oblivious to the ongoing events?”

Su Ming inquired, wearing a playful smile.

“Please, I implore you, enlighten me,” Cao Mingyuan pleaded.

Attempting to contain his amusement, Su Ming cautioned, “Are you certain you wish to be informed? Be wary of regret.”

Staying in the village was no longer an option for him.

Despite Cao Mingyuan’s belief in his own thick-skinned nature, comparable to that of a city wall.

The moniker “Little Drill” proved too much for him to tolerate.

Su Ming opted to spend another day at his residence.

Subsequently, under the guidance of his parents, he made his journey back to the urban area.

Su Ming experienced a sense of urgency during his trip.

The ripeness of the blueberries served as a contributing factor to his unease.

Given the abundant blueberry harvest, another advancement in level was imminent for him.

With the upcoming advancement, a new ability was within his reach!

An additional cause for his concern was his unintended discovery of an extraordinary plant in the forested mountains.

He had previously utilized the scanning system to examine this unique flora.

Yet, the system’s response left Su Ming somewhat taken aback.

The system informed him, “This item’s level exceeds the scanning system’s clearance, rendering it unscannable!”

The inability to scan the item brought about a mild disappointment in Su Ming.

Nonetheless, this piqued his curiosity even more.

It indicated that the system would incorporate an increasing array of functionalities moving forward.

He eagerly anticipated these developments!

By the time Su Ming reached his abode, night had fallen.

The absence of President Chen and Wang Guohui suggested their prior departure to their own homes.

Despite Su Ming’s three-day absence, the courtyard remained impeccably tidy.

It was devoid of any weeds.

The diligence of President Chen and Wang Guohui was commendable.

He praised their efforts, saying, “They performed excellently!”

He resolved to reward them with two small red flowers in the future.

Upon parking his vehicle at the entrance, Su Ming retrieved his backpack from the car and hastened towards the field.

From the perimeter, the field appeared to be sown with wheat, yet the moment he set foot on it,

The wheat miraculously transformed into blueberries.

As Su Ming was about to examine the blueberries more closely,

Something unusual caught his eye.

He promptly looked in its direction.

Exclaiming in surprise, “Damn it!”

He questioned, “What is happening here?”

Su Ming found himself in the initial two-acre plot where the System was activated.

Positioned with the villa behind him, he faced the two acres, with the breeding zone, an earlier System creation, to his left.

The breeding zone housed both pigs and chickens.

To the right side of Su Ming,

He discovered a small 1 x 1 square section of land that had inexplicably turned white.

The once normal soil had transformed into white soil.

Puzzled, Su Ming wondered aloud, “What could this be?”

He approached quickly for a closer inspection, asking again, “What is this?”
