Chapter 20: Lucky Four-Leaf Clover

"No problem, Xuan Ge'er'er, rest assured; I'm very familiar with the whole Flower Sea, I've worked for many people there before and have walked many places." Bai Wen patted his chest, agreed without hesitation, and after speaking headed outward.

"Brother Bai Wen, don't be in a hurry; our flower seedlings are already cultivated, and I'm not in a rush to go out and stroll the Flower Sea. Let's chat first, tell me some basic information about the Flower Sea." Li Xuan said with a smile to Bai Wen.

Not to mention Li Xuan, even his previous incarnation died shortly after arriving at the Flower Sea. Li Xuan has only been at the Flower Sea for a week or two and has been busy cultivating flower seedlings, having no time to wander outside.

So finding a guide familiar with the Flower Sea is indeed correct.

"Our Flower Sea is divided into four zones: the East District and South District are woody flowers, the West District and North District are herbaceous flowers. The plants in the East and West zones are very precious, while those in the South and North zones are more ordinary. People from the South and North districts must pass a test to enter the East and West zones. The East and West zones have excellent provisions—food, drink, even bride gifts." Bai Wen organized his thoughts and told Li Xuan everything he knew.

"Then… what about outside the Flower Sea? For example, which direction leads out of the Flower Sea?" Li Xuan asked Bai Wen seriously, staring.

"We, as Flower Slaves, live in the canyon; how could the Spirit Hall give us a chance to leave the Flower Sea? Xuan Ge'er'er, outside the Flower Sea there are soul masters and guard patrols, so there's no chance to escape. We shouldn't entertain such thoughts." Bai Wen waved his hand and said indifferently.

Li Xuan realized that Bai Wen was urging him not to daydream about leaving.

However, Li Xuan could not heed Bai Wen's advice; after all, he had a once‑in‑a‑lifetime transmigration and didn't want to waste the chance to see the vast world outside.

"Brother Bai Wen, are we in the West District or the North District?" Li Xuan asked Bai Wen again.

"We're in the North District; this is the largest area of the Flower Sea." Bai Wen told Li Xuan directly.

After hearing Bai Wen's words, Li Xuan nodded and began to contemplate.

That means his position is at the north side of the Flower Sea; if he keeps digging north, he could carve a road out of the Flower Sea.

But it probably won't be that simple; north of Li Xuan's Mao Cao Wu is a massive mountain, and carving a passage through it by human effort is essentially a pipe dream.

Yet Li Xuan will not give up easily; he wonders if strolling the Flower Sea might reveal some exit routes, and also seeks Heavenly Material Earth Treasure or Immortal Grade spirit plants within the Flower Sea.

Since he's trapped here, Li Xuan also plans to use those Heavenly Material Earth Treasure and Immortal Grade spirit plants to boost his strength; after all, he can't waste time.

"Brother Bai Wen, let's have a good walk around the North District today." Li Xuan stood up and said to Bai Wen.

Bai Wen looked up, glanced at Li Xuan, and seeing his serious demeanor, swallowed the words he was about to say.

After all, Li Xuan had made up his mind, so Bai Wen saw no need to continue persuading.

"Alright, Xuan Ge'er'er, I'll take you to stroll the North District's Flower Sea. Most of the Flower Slaves you helped cultivate seeds for recently are from the North District's Flower Sea overseers; they're pure slaves, not good at planting, and many die each year. If it weren't for you this year, they'd have to bring in a batch of newcomers." Bai Wen smiled at Li Xuan, then stood up, pushed open the door, and prepared to walk around with Li Xuan.

Li Xuan also smiled and shook his head, following behind Bai Wen as he left his Courtyard.

In the Flower Sea, doors cannot be locked; after Li Xuan closed the main gate, he left.

After leaving his small Courtyard, Bai Wen first took Li Xuan to the Flower Sea he himself was responsible for.

The Flower Sea under Bai Wen's charge is about ten mu of Rose flowers.

"Brother Bai Wen, that's great—you get to be with Roses every day." Li Xuan teased Bai Wen with a smile.

"What's the use? I'm barely getting enough to eat; no matter how beautiful or fragrant the flowers are, they don't satisfy hunger." Bai Wen shrugged helplessly, then led Li Xuan into his own Courtyard and drank some water.

After drinking water, Li Xuan entered the Flower Sea that Bai Wen was responsible for.

The Medicine Appraisal Technique requires no cooldown and consumes no mana, so Li Xuan spent an hour completing the inspection of Bai Wen's Flower Sea.

Unfortunately, he only found two plants of rare quality; he saw no Heavenly Material Earth Treasure or Immortal Grade spirit plants.

But that's normal; after all, those things aren't like common cabbages on the street, easily within reach.

Li Xuan used diluted Green Spirit Liquid to accelerate the two rare‑quality roses, harvested their seeds, then used one seed to accelerate a rose to its original form; only then did Li Xuan leave Bai Wen's Flower Sea.

Bai Wen waited for Li Xuan outside the Flower Sea, did not enter the Flower Sea with him, and had no curiosity at all about what Li Xuan did inside.

"Brother Bai Wen, I've already seen the Flower Sea you're in charge of; where to go next?" Li Xuan asked Bai Wen with a smile.

"Next door, Liu Lao Gui; his Flower Sea is like yours, also orchids." Bai Wen pointed to the neighboring Flower Sea and nodded.

After Li Xuan entered his own Flower Sea, Bai Wen thought over the next route, which is why he replied to Li Xuan so quickly.

"Alright." Li Xuan responded, then went with Bai Wen to Liu Lao Gui's neighboring Flower Sea.

Liu Lao Gui's Flower Sea is indeed filled with orchids, and the quality of the orchids there is far higher than the orchids in Li Xuan's Flower Sea.

It seems the Flower Sea's overseer, seeing Li Xuan's youth and fearing mishaps, assigned him a tiny orchid Flower Sea to manage.

Now is the time for cultivating flower seedlings, so Flower Slaves usually rest in their own Courtyard at this time.

After all, without a task, no one wants to go to the Flower Sea.

To avoid stirring up trouble, Li Xuan and Bai Wen tiptoed into Liu Lao Gui's Flower Sea.

After all, since they hadn't greeted the Flower Sea's owner before entering his area, it's better to be cautious.

After arriving in the Flower Sea, Li Xuan entered the Medicine Appraisal state again, discarding each appraisal technique without cost.

After nearly an hour, Li Xuan finished inspecting Liu Lao Gui's Flower Sea; unfortunately there was only one rare‑quality orchid, but Li Xuan was unhesitant, reusing the technique to obtain that orchid's seed.

Having harvested the orchid seed, Li Xuan thought about leaving.

He signaled Bai Wen, and the two walked together toward the outside of the Flower Sea.

Just as Li Xuan was leaving the Flower Sea, at its edge he discovered a particularly ordinary four‑leaf clover.

Yet this four‑leaf clover gave Li Xuan a special attraction.

Li Xuan hesitated, then unleashed a Medicine Appraisal Technique.

【Plant: Lucky Four-Leaf Clover】

【Quality: Heavenly Material Earth Treasure】

【Cultivation: 2 years】

【Description: A miraculous Heavenly Material Earth Treasure; possessing it grants good luck, with no special growth requirements】

"Xuan Ge'er'er, we're on someone else's turf. Stop staring at the clover; let's hurry up and go." Bai Wen, seeing Li Xuan's gaze fixed on the clover, whispered a reminder.

Li Xuan gestured at Bai Wen, then took out his tools, uprooted the Lucky Four-Leaf Clover with its roots, cradled it, and left the Flower Sea together with Bai Wen.

Dear readers, today we had rain all day here, which exhausted me; only now have I begun to write, and today's 4,000 words will not fall short of you, dear readers.
