2804 Conscription Begins(1)
“Eh! Demon nts? I hadn’t seen any bamboo demons in the human race before.”
“Hey, Shopkeeper Bamboo, are you from the Water-Wood World?”
“Mr. Bamboo, what’s your business exactly?”
“Mr. Bamboo, is the signing of Master Human Emperor real?”
“Shopkeeper Bamboo, introduce your shop first. Otherwise, we don’t know what we’re queueing to buy.”
“That’s right, that’s right… This store appeared too suddenly. We weren’t prepared!”
This green bamboo was naturally Han Fei, but he was just one of Han Fei’s loose living beings. He said, “Don’t be hasty. I made you wait for four hours because I was preparing a bulletin. I’ll answer your questionster. Now, I’ve sorted out some manuals. You can read them first after the manuals are distributed. But please line up in an orderly manner. There is no manual if you don’t line up.”
“Oh! This Shopkeeper is quite tough.”
“Interesting. Let’s line up and see what he is up to.”
After only a moment, there was a long line of hundreds of people at the entrance of the store. In order to avoid traffic jams, Shopkeeper Bamboo even made an “S”-shaped passage that could amodate nearly a thousand people at once.
Even though the shop was not in themercial center, the ce was still not big enough. A thousand people were already the limit of the line.
However, when there was a crowd of people, there would be a special phenomenon, which was the bystander effect. To put it bluntly, people liked joining in the fun. When the peopleing and going saw arge group of people gathered together, they would be curious ande over to watch. In just the time they lined up, there were already more than a thousand onlookers.
At this moment, Han Fei said, “Fellow Daoists, today is the joyous day of the opening of my little store, “All about Demon nts”. The opening time is scheduled to be two hours from now. Please wait patiently. Perhaps you still don’t know what our store is about, so I’ll give you half an hour to ask questions! After half an hour, I’ll have to get busy with the opening matter. You can only read the manual…”
Someone immediately said, “Mr. Bamboo, is the signature on your signboard real?”
Han Fei said, “It’s true. This is written by Master Human Emperor himself. Master Human Emperor thinks that other than cultivating, we don’t have any fun in life. And the Chaotic Wastnd is special, so he asked us to open these shops.”
The audience whispered to each other.
“I knew it. The signature can’t be fake. Look where we are. Who dares to pretend to be Master Human Emperor?”
“That’s right. Master Human Emperor is so considerate. He’s afraid that we’ll be tired from cultivating, so he wants to add some fun to our lives.”
“Since it’s a shop approved by Master Human Emperor, it can’t be bad. No matter how long I have to wait, it’s worth it.”
Someone continued to ask, “Mr. Bamboo, I saw several “All about Demon nts” shops this morning. Are the Shopkeepers all bamboo demons? Why haven’t I seen your bamboo demons in the Raging Sea before?”
Han Fei said, “Well, we’re not demon nts in the Raging Sea. Our lineage is a demon nt tribe outside the Chaotic Wastnd. We’re just following Master Human Emperor now. Our tribe is not good at fighting, but we’re quite knowledgeable about ntation. This is our first trip to the human race. Nice to meet you.”
“Huh? A race that follows Master Human Emperor!”
“Haha! Don’t worry, Shopkeeper Bamboo. Our human race is the most hospitable. Since you’re followers of Master Human Emperor, you’re our friends!”
“Yes, yes, we humans are quite friendly to our friends. I’m not bragging. You won’t even want to leave as long as youe.”
“That’s right. Don’t worry, Shopkeeper Bamboo. No matter what you sell today, I’ll buy something from your shop.”
Han Fei shook the leaves on his body and replied, “Thank you, my human friends. Let me exin a little bit to you. Our shops specialize in selling demon nt seeds. With the infusion of spiritual energy, these demon nts can grow quickly. As long as they are continuously nurtured, they can reach at least the Dangling Fisher Realm in a very short period of time. Furthermore, many demon nts can give birth to various spiritual fruits as they grow. Some can restore the spirit, some can increase the soul power, some can strengthen the blood and Qi, and some can provide energy… As the time to nurture demon nts increases, the level and strength of the demon nts will also be better and better…”
“What? We can nt spiritual fruits ourselves now?”
“Wait, a demon nt that can give birth to spiritual fruits will take hundreds or thousands of years to grow, right? Boss Bamboo, you only sell seeds in your shop. Then it will take at least 800 years to grow spiritual fruits, right?”
Han Fei said, “It’s not that slow. In a while, Master Human Emperor will transnt my race’s life demon nts to the various cities. Where there are life demon nts, the growth of the demon nts can be shortened to a few months or even a few days. The stronger you are, the more spiritual energy you inject into the demon nts, the faster the growth of the demon nts. If you are a Sea Establisher, it will only take a moment for you to grow a demon nt.”
“Really?”
“Then how much spiritual energy should I inject? We aren’t that strong. For example, the Hidden Fisher realm is the mainstream now. How long will it take for a seed to grow into a demon nt for Hidden Fishers?”
