Title: 幻想农场 Author: West Xu Raw Link: http://www.jjwxc.net/onebook.php?novelid=3588797 Lu Qingji was fired from his job decided to return to his hometown to farm. At first, he raised a pig but then the pig started asking him high leveled questions that even he can't answer. Then he decided to raise a group of chicken but he found out that the fighting power equal to ten per chicken. Finally, Lu Qingji found out that this old home seems strange and mysterious... especially a certain someone who is always around him with beaming eyes. Lu Qingji: "Are you drooling because of the spicy pot on my hand or at me?" Bai Yuehu pointed at the spicy pot. Li Qingji: "Then can you loosen your mouth first?" Bai Yuehu reluctantly looked at the arm of Lu Qingji then loosened his teeth. The author has something to say: Even though you guys are disappointed, I have to say that the pig will not become the gong~ I really want to mtl this just because of that summary but... I can't I've been digging my own pit these days~ I can't catch a break. I've been saving these for many days but looking at the list of my unread mtl BL novel lists.... I hope someone comes and spoil this for me~ Tell me what kind of animal ML is pls.~ Also will MC gain any powers? What about the plants he'll grow? @alexfilia pls. if you can just summon someone~
Oh I love this story!! I haven't finished reading it though, haha... (I'm not even halfway through, so take what I say about the tone with a pinch of salt, it could shift slowly to become more serious) The ML claims he's a fox spirit (huli jing), but the way he can eat everything makes me suspect he might be a taotie (like in the ppl who are supposed to kill me fell in love with me arc 2). The MC hasn't gotten any powers so far, and I don't think he will? This story isn't really set up as a 'supernatural battle' kind of thing anyways. The plots so far go in the form of MC meets some kind of supernatural being --> dealt with in some humorous way. Like if you want an idea of the tone, its more on the humour side like Kaleidoscope of Death by the same author. For instance, there's this ghost haunting the well in the MC's farm, so when MC and his friend got drunk together, the ghost crawled out of the well and asked them: "Do you know what I'm most scared of?" MC in his drunk state, looked at her Sadako-esque long af hair and then guessed: "Balding?" Then the ghost was just like "..." and left. Afterwards, after they solved her murder and all that, the people who came and prayed to the well ended up growing long, healthy hair overnight XD They even started selling it as a service to balding rich people lmao This novel also has a lot of food porn, which always makes me so hungry when reading it at night orz
Mmm... I kind of like the sound of that humorous ghostly novel. Thanks for answering my questions! How did they meet though? Was there any smut scenes? What is ML's character? Cold/CEO type or something?
Spoiler: spoiler 1. MC and ML first met when MC was in a taxi going to his village after leaving the city , the driver speaks of some supernatural happening around that village and how every driver is scared to go there , while they were talking they spot a figure on the road , the driver gets terribly scared while MC remains calm and tries to look clearly . When they reach near the figure MC asks the driver to stop and talks to the person (ml), asking why they are roaming so late at night , the person then advices MC to be careful as there had been accidents on the way before . MC thanks him and then leaves . Later when MC reaches home and mets his old friend , they then clean up his home and rest , then MC sees marks on his wrists why may have been left by the driver and realizes that the person may have saved his life from the driver actually. Later at night MC encounters a large gecko which may have been hiding in his house. The gecko attacks MC and tries to eat him but then some black fog encloses the geckoand saves MC and he hears shrieks and sounds of chewing from that , he also sees red eyes in the fog , next day MC wakes up on his bed thinking if everything was just a dream .Thei official first meeting was when Later he goes to town with his friend to buy some things for home and they decided to try the famous buns of the town . When they were eating MC noticed someone heavily staring at him to be exact the bun in his hand .It was the ML ,MC asks him if he would like eat them and ML nods . Then they order more buns and MC is surprised by how much ML can eat . MC pays for everything and after knowing ML has no place to live he ends up inviting him to stayy as a tenant in his house as a gratitude for saving him before which , he confirms when ML give him a bag which contains the tail of the gecko from before. 2,No there are no smut scenes , at least I didnt find any . 3. ML is a dragon , the creatures on the top of the food chain amd also very strong . ML isnt really the the cold president type , he is cold and indifferent but thats cuz he is a greater being and sees all as food in his eyes . He only cares about two things MC and food and get really angry when someone tries to take his food and totally dislikes sharing his food as he has a huge appetite. He is also very pitiful as he is really poor and before eating MC he could only eat raw food by killing those monsters ( not really platable ). The reason for that is because ML is a dragon and in human world dragons cant really eat food by their earning as the more they eat the more hungry they will become and thus the cycle will go on , so ML cant really integrate in the human society . ALso ML rarely shows any emotions on his face but he isnt really cold , he is actually pretty nice ,at least to MC. Also ML lies to MC that he is a fox when asked by MC what kind of creature he is , to prove that he also shows his nine tails and lets MC touch them ( this is really funny as later on also when MC astrts suspecting him , he lies with a blunt face that he is a fox and shows his ears tooHe is amandmant on being a fox and if anyone tries to reveal the truth he gives them death glare).All in all ML has a good character soo not overbearing cold CEO type.
What does this mean? Is it because ML is like a deity and can only satisfy his hunger with food given with intention to worship him?

No the ML is not a diety, there are also gods in the novel but they are different from what ML is . The God's need faith to survive and be powerful , which is not the case with ML. But although he is not a god , he is stronger than one. Spoiler: ML The shuifu village( where MC lives) is the only remaining place which has the connection to the other world. It is the Yinlong dragon's duty ( the kind of dragon ML is) protect it and prevent any harmful monsters from entering the human world. These dragons have a gaurdian with whom the they lives as a tenant . The gaundian's duty is to look after the dragon by providing them meals and washing their dragon forms , etc. In ML's case his previous gaurdian was MC's grandmother but later she died . Usually the the gaurdian's child would become the next gaurdian but , at that time MC's mom was already dead and MC was living in city and as his grandmother wanted him to live a normal life ,she prevented him from coming to the village , so there was no gaurdian . Thus the ML had no one to provide him food and could only wander around insearch of food , until he met MC.
Awwww... That's feels so sad! How does MC realise that ML is the dragon? Does he wash ML's dragon form? And where do the pig and the chickens come in?
Nice and cute. Spoiler: Small spoiler MC is quarter dragon. His grandfather was previously guardian with his grandmother but then the grandfather got polluted and left the grandmother. Later the grandfather killed/ate MCs parents. Because if dragon are polluted they eat their loved ones. But it is hinted that the grandfather wanted eat mc not his parents.
Except that they are not the real bees, pfft . I also love the other animals in their home especially Xiaohua , its really funny how he acts like a human despite being a pig . MC realises ML 's true form after linking all the clues , such as how everyone is afraid of him and how they show unnatural expressions when MC tells them ML is a fox , then one time when MC was cuddling with ML 's tail ,it broke off and MC was sooo panicked but ML just assured him that it will grow back in summer and that it doesn't really affect him ,though MC was really skeptical . Also despite being a fox ML foent know anything much about foxes . Then one night during one of ML's fight MC saw black scales fall from the sky , alhough he couldnt see them properly as they were covered in fog , he could more or less guess as the black scale was same as that of the dragon he had seen in ML's world . Although he guessed ML's true he still pretended not to know anything when ML asked him if he saw anything . He was wondering why ML would lie about his identity to him but he didn't want to force him to reveal it as he saw that ML grew rellly nervous when they talked on this topic ,so he was waiting for the time when ML himself would tell him the truth . It was rellly funny seeing ML lie so clumsily when MC knew everyeverything . Yes he does wash ML's dragon form but it takes many days to completely was him and it was really a hard task. When MC and Yin Xun (his friend) had gone toto the town, were looking for pigc to raise there MC found the two skinny black piglets after seeing that the pigs were quite smart and taking pity on them , he bought them along with two white pigs . It was only later on MC came to know that the pigs could talk and were very intelligent when he overheard them talking to their neighbours child , who always sneaks away to their pigsty. The chicken were also bought from the poultry , but it was YinXun who had caught them . the chickens are also different from usual chicken as they were quite fierce and really strong .I don't remember the exact chapter but they come quite early in the novel.
Thanks for the spoilers mereumsama! Since it seems like the story isn't going to go through some dramatic toneshift, I think I'm gonna try my hand at translating it It's pretty consistent at about 6200 words per chapter tho, so I think I'm definitely going to die doing this orz Here's a teaser from chapter 1~ Spoiler: Chapter 1 It's unedited, so please excuse some awkward phrasing Chapter 1: Going home to sell sweet potatoes When Lu Qingjiu got off the train, the sky had already completely turned dark. He lugged along his heavy luggage, originally thinking of renting a car, but who knew the moment the rental car drivers heard where he wanted to go, they all refused one after another. “Shuifu is too remote, not going.” The rental car driver looked Lu Qingjiu up and down, his eyes gaining an added hint of alertness. Lu Qingjiu was being inexplicably sized up. He replied: “Sir, would you reconsider if I pay more?” The driver hesitated for a moment. “You’re returning from the city?” Lu Qingjiu nodded. “Yup, from A city,” he pointed at the suitcase by his side. The driver looked at Lu Qingjiu’s luggage, before gritting his teeth and asking: “How much more are you offering?” Lu Qingjiu calculated the distance, then said: “Does an extra two hundred work?” Only then did the driver relax. “Fine, get on.” Lu Qingjiu was inwardly relieved. He hurriedly loaded his luggage into the trunk, before sitting down in the front seat. It was already the early hours of the morning, the streets were completely empty, with only the occasional few rental cars speeding past. Spring had only just begun, so the weather was still a little cold, causing the short sleeved Lu Qingjiu to clutch at his arms, shivering slightly. This place was far from A city, belonging to the outer suburbs of the province. Similarly, its level of economic development was far from that of A city, most of the surrounding buildings were low-rise buildings, giving off an old-fashioned air. As the driver drove onwards, he struck up a conversation with Lu Qingjiu, finally revealing the reason behind his unwillingness to go to Shuifu. Shuifu was a relatively remote village, and was still quite a distance from the county town. Previously, two rental car drivers had died in that area, and the murderer still hadn’t been caught to this day. Afterwards, there was a rumour that those two drivers hadn’t been killed by a human, it was because they had bumped into some unclean thing, so at this time all the rental car drivers were unwilling to go to this area now, especially in the dark of the night...
