I'm a Druid at a farmhouse.

Chapter 70: Complete the [Beastmaster Druid] advancement quest.

An invisible force was unleashed, instantly causing a huge uproar in the chicken coop.

"Giggle giggle—!"

"Gah!"

The chickens that had been docilely circling around his feet suddenly erupted into chaos.

The chickens flapped their wings and ran around in panic, some even crashing into the fence. Feathers flew everywhere in the coop, which was filled with sharp and fearful squawks.

The reaction was much stronger than he had expected.

Song You immediately withdrew the "Whisper of Nature".

He understood that these poultry, unlike the fish in the reservoir or the wild boars in the back mountain, had never been exposed to this kind of power that directly affects the mind, and their instinctive reaction was fear.

Hearing the commotion, Su Yunxi, who was sweeping the floor in the yard, peeked out with a worried look on her face.

"Boss, what's wrong with the chickens?"

"It's nothing, I was just too excited while feeding her," Song You replied casually, reassuring the curious junior student.

He squatted down again, opened his palm, revealing the grains soaked in bayberry juice.

The unique, sweet aroma quickly overwhelmed the chickens' panic.

A bold speckled hen tentatively approached, pecked away a grain of rice, and then let out a satisfied "cluck cluck".

The power of example is boundless. Soon, all the chickens gathered around, scrambling to peck at the grains in his palm, as if the earlier chaos had never happened.

Song You patiently fed the baby, and at the same time, activated [Whispers of Nature] for the second time.

This time, he did not directly convey the idea of ​​submission, but instead gently and peacefully enveloped the entire flock of chickens like a gentle stream.

The effect is much better.

The chickens slowed down and became less impatient, but a subtle resistance could still be felt.

Especially the largest rooster in the flock, with its glossy feathers, stopped pecking at its food, raised its head, and stared warily at Song You with its small, black bean-like eyes.

It is the leader of this flock of chickens, and its will determines the attitude of the entire group.

Catch the thief first to catch the king.

Song You focused all his thoughts into one, aiming precisely at the rooster.

There is no coercion in this idea, only demonstration.

He showed it more delicious food, a safer environment, and his unquestionable status as the master of this land.

The rooster froze.

The wariness in its eyes gradually turned into confusion, and then into struggle. It looked at the remaining grains in Song You's palm, and then felt the gentle power that made its soul feel comfortable.

A few seconds later, the proud rooster slowly lowered its proud head and let out a low, submissive "cluck" sound.

Once it gave in, the other chickens immediately abandoned all resistance, completely immersed in the feeling of peace, and became very docile.

It became.

In Song You's mind, a series of crisp notification sounds rang out.

[Druid's Log: You have gained the initial trust of the chickens and won over their leader.]

[Beast Mastery Druid Advanced Quest: The Chickens' Trust, 100% Complete!]

Congratulations! You have completed the advanced mission (3/3)!

[Beastmaster Druid beginner progress +25%]

[Beastmaster Druid beginner progress has reached 100%!]

boom!

A vast and pure power surged from his limbs and bones, rapidly nourishing his body.

Song Youneng could clearly feel that his bones had become denser and his muscle fibers were more resilient.

The ability to improve physical fitness has been greatly enhanced once again.

His current strength has probably reached the level of the five pigs.

That's about the strength of an ox.

Feeling the surging power within him, Song You didn't waste a moment. He immediately turned around and went back into the house, arriving in front of the dying little Bodhi tree.

He took a deep breath, held his palm above the seedling, and mobilized the natural power that had just grown within him.

This time, the energy transfer process was several times smoother. That pure life energy, like a torrent finding its outlet, was precisely and gently injected into the seedling, repairing the necrotic roots.

On the Druid's diary, the numbers representing the countdown to death jumped up rapidly.

[Remaining lives: 173 hours... 250 hours...]

Finally, the number stopped at [264 hours].

Eleven days.

The crisis has been temporarily averted.

Song You breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

The tree's life has been extended, but to truly revive it, I'll probably have to wait until I officially advance to the first-tier druid level.

Just then, the sound of a car engine came from outside the courtyard.

We have guests.

Song You walked out of the house, and a black Honda stopped at the gate of the yard. A family of three got out.

"Boss, is fishing still possible today?" the man asked with a smile.

"Of course, welcome." Song You greeted them with a smile.

Seeing this, Su Yunxi quickly put down the rag, nervously clutching her notebook, and ran over.

"Xiao Su, take the guests to the reservoir to choose fishing spots and explain our pricing to them clearly," Song You commanded naturally.

"Huh? Oh, okay, okay, boss!"

Su Yunxi paused for a moment, then reacted, took a deep breath, and tried to appear professional as she led the family of three toward the reservoir. Her back was ramrod straight, but her gait was still somewhat stiff.

Song You watched her retreating figure, then turned and went into the kitchen to begin preparing ingredients for lunch.

Throughout the morning, four or five groups of guests arrived at the farmhouse, some to fish and others specifically to eat. The courtyard suddenly became lively.

Su Yunxi also began the first real test of her internship.

At first, she was flustered and seemed very nervous.

When taking a customer's order, I almost wrote "sweet and sour fish" instead of "braised fish"; when taking a customer to pick vegetables in the garden, I couldn't tell the difference between chives and wheat seedlings; when paying the bill, I scanned the QR code for a long time before realizing that I hadn't turned on the internet.

Song You was so busy in the kitchen that he barely had time to breathe, but he always managed to keep an eye on everything in the yard out of the corner of his eye.

He didn't blame Su Yunxi, but only gave her a light reminder when she made a mistake.

"Xiao Su, the menu is on the wall, just read it."

"The short, green ones are chives, and the tall ones are scallions."

"Without internet on your phone, you won't be able to pay even if you scan all day."

Su Yunxi was easily embarrassed; after being told off a few times, her cheeks turned as red as tomatoes in the yard.

But her indomitable spirit was ignited, and the more mistakes she made, the more serious she became.

In the afternoon, a wonderful chemical reaction occurred.

Su Yunxi no longer needs to look at the notebook to fluently recite all the dish prices and charges.

She can lead guests through the vegetable garden, accurately pointing out which patch is cucumbers and which row is potatoes.

She even learned how to help fishing customers choose better spots.

In the evening, the last group of guests left satisfied.

Su Yunxi was holding a rag, carefully wiping the last table. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on her, giving her comical work clothes a soft glow.

Sweat still clung to her forehead, and her face was smudged with dust, but her eyes shone with an astonishing brightness.

Song You leaned against the kitchen door frame, watching this scene with a mix of emotions.

This junior is a real gem.
