I'm a Druid at a farmhouse.

Chapter 64 [Terra World Tree]

Song You's breathing paused for a moment.

Before his eyes, it seemed as if a line of words, emitting a faint glow, appeared that only he could see.

[Druid's Diary: Discovered a special plant from the Golden Legend—Terra World Tree (sickly seedling stage).]

[Type: World Tree Branch]

[Effect: During its growth period, its root system deeply connects with the soil, forming miniature energy nodes that slowly and continuously transform the surrounding land, increasing soil fertility and energy concentration. Upon maturity, it has the potential to give birth to a special world space. Its fruit contains pure life energy and can be used to craft special high-grade druidic potions.]

[Note: This is a miracle from another world; it shouldn't be here. Please save it quickly, or it will wither away completely within seventy-two hours.]

Golden Legend!

Song You's heart clenched suddenly.

Having played so many games, he naturally knew what those four words meant.

That's a synonym for top-tier, rare, and something you can only come across once in a lifetime.

He forcefully suppressed the wild beating in his heart, showing no sign of it on his face.

His gaze lingered on the half-dead plant for less than a second before naturally shifting to a thriving money tree next to it.

"Boss, your money tree is nice, the leaves are quite green." Song You's tone was casual, no different from that of an ordinary customer genuinely choosing a free gift.

"Absolutely!" The salesperson immediately perked up and launched into a long, enthusiastic introduction, "Look at these leaves, sir! They're so glossy and shiny! That's called excellent quality. Buy them and put them in your shop, and I guarantee your business will boom!"

Song You nodded, then pointed to a potted green ivy with long, trailing vines next to him: "That one's fine too, it looks easy to take care of."

"Good eye! Pothos purifies the air and is suitable for both home and shop!"

The salesperson was overjoyed to see that he had chosen two large pots and enthusiastically offered to help him carry them.

"Wait a minute," Song You called out to him.

He slowly walked to the corner, squatted down, and poked the dry soil of the "Terra World Tree" with his finger.

"What's wrong with this pot? It looks like it's about to die."

The salesperson glanced at it, a look of disgust on his face: "Oh, don't even mention it. This was brought over from the last batch. They said it was a special species from Latin America, but I only realized I'd been ripped off after buying it. It's been half-dead ever since, and watering and fertilizing haven't helped. I guess the roots are rotten. I'm thinking of throwing it away in a couple of days to save it from taking up space."

Su Yunxi also came over to take a look, and frowned slightly.

Although the leaves of this plant have a peculiar silver-white stripe around their edges, most of the leaves are yellowed, curled, and lifeless, truly looking like they are about to die.

"It's such a waste to throw them away." Song You stood up, patted the dirt off his hands, and said, "How about this, boss? I'll take the money tree and the pothos, and I'll take the third one."

The salesperson was stunned: "Sir, are you sure? This thing won't survive if you take it home; it'll be a waste of your time. How about I get you a more healthy one?"

"No need." Song You waved his hand, a strange confidence on his face. "I like to challenge myself with difficult tasks. It looks like it's about to die, but what if I manage to revive it? That would be so satisfying."

"Or I can choose another one and give this one to me."

Seeing his insistence, the salesperson stopped trying to persuade him. After all, it was a free gift, and the customer was happy with it.

"Alright! You're a straightforward person, brother! I'll give you one, it's settled!"

With the deal finalized, Song You readily paid the money. Six thousand yuan for a high-spec electric tricycle, plus a free sapling of the Golden Legend World Tree.

This deal was incredibly profitable.

The salesman worked quickly and efficiently, pushing out a brand-new, fully charged blue tricycle with a gleaming cargo bed.

He also included a raincoat, a padlock, and a basic car repair tool kit.

Song You carefully placed the four potted plants into the corner of the truck bed, especially the World Tree seedling, which he secured with several pieces of foam board to prevent it from being damaged by the bumps on the road.

Then, he walked up to Su Yunxi, picked up her seemingly heavy suitcase with one hand, and easily put it into the truck bed.

Su Yunxi's eyes widened slightly.

She remembers clearly that the suitcase was filled with her carefully selected books and clothes, as well as dressing and grooming items, making it difficult to even drag.

After Song You finished doing all this, he clapped his hands, got into the driver's seat, and smiled back at her.

"Get in the car, intern. Let's go back to the farmhouse."

Su Yunxi's cheeks felt a little hot.

She has lived for twenty years, and has ridden in luxury cars, high-speed trains, and airplanes, but this is the first time she has ever ridden in the back of an electric tricycle.

She climbed onto the truck bed somewhat awkwardly and sat down next to the suitcase.

The tricycle started up, making a slight electrical hum, and smoothly merged into the city's traffic.

At first, Su Yunxi felt a little uncomfortable, as she felt that passersby were subtly glancing in her direction.

But as the tricycle drove out of the city and onto the road leading to the countryside, the surrounding scenery gradually opened up and the air became fresher.

The evening breeze, carrying the scent of mountains, grasses, and trees, felt exceptionally pleasant on my face.

Her tense body relaxed without her even realizing it.

"How are you feeling?" Song You's voice came from the front.

"It's great." Su Yunxi brushed aside her wind-blown hair and looked at the fields and trees rushing past by the roadside. "It's more comfortable than riding in a car."

"From now on, I'll have to trouble you with the farm stay business." Song You glanced at her through the rearview mirror.

"Whatever you ask me to do, senior, I'll do it." Su Yunxi immediately declared, her words loud and clear, though she was a little apprehensive inside.

From childhood to adulthood, she has rarely done farm work, let alone housework. This internship was purely on a whim. If she were to actually plant vegetables and feed chickens, she really doesn't know if she could do it.

Song You smiled and didn't continue the topic, instead changing the subject.

"Speaking of which, that yellow-dog senior at our school used to steal takeout food."

"Pfft." Su Yunxi couldn't help but laugh. "It's still there? I found out when I was a freshman. It stole one of my durian pizzas."

"I've been robbed too," Song You said, empathizing. "I suspect that half of my takeout meals during my four years of college ended up in its belly."

The two chatted about interesting things at school, and the atmosphere became more and more relaxed.

"Oh, right, senior," Su Yunxi suddenly remembered something, "Do you remember when I first started university, you were the one who picked me up?"

Song You paused for a moment while gripping the handlebars.

The floodgates of memory were suddenly opened by this sentence.

He actually remembered.

That day, as a member of the student council, he was responsible for welcoming new students at the registration point.

A girl in a white dress, dragging a huge suitcase, stood silently on the periphery of the crowd, neither speaking nor asking for help.

She exuded an aura that kept strangers at bay, making her stand out from the lively and exciting environment around her.

"It's you." Song You was a little annoyed that he hadn't thought of it now. "I remember you weren't very talkative back then."

"Mmm." Su Yunxi's voice lowered a bit. "Back then, I had just arrived in a strange place and was a little unaccustomed to it. Actually, come to think of it, I was the first person in our dorm to meet you, senior."

"Later, it was you who helped me with all the procedures and showed me around the campus." Su Yunxi looked at Song You's back with a distant gaze. "It was also you who told me that university is a platform to showcase myself and that I shouldn't always keep things bottled up inside."

"You even recommended that I join the student council."

Song You remembered that he had indeed said a few words because he thought the junior was too aloof. He even recommended her to Jiang Yuexian, who was then the head of the student council.

I never imagined that my unintentional remark would have such a big impact on her.

"Back then," Su Yunxi's voice carried a barely perceptible sense of relief, "I was always subjected to suppression and discipline at home. My parents always felt that I wasn't doing well enough here or there. So I got used to being silent and not being noticed."

"It was you, senior, who told me that I could do well."

The electric tricycle rounded a bend, and the mountain road ahead became clearer.

Song You felt a mix of emotions.

It turns out that this seemingly aloof junior has such a past.

He could sense that Su Yunxi now was completely different from the quiet girl she was in college.

She became more cheerful, confident, and better at getting along with people.

That's good.

Song You felt a sense of relief.

However, he reconsidered.

This junior girl has a much more cheerful personality, but why does she seem less sharp-minded than before?
