Huang Xiaocui kept asking Zhan Lingfeng about the details of this matter, unable to believe that it was true.
Zhan Lingfeng did not mention the three hundred yuan he had spent, downplaying the purchase of clothes and other expenses. He took out one thousand yuan and placed it on the table, saying, "Mom, aside from the expenses, this is all the money I made this time."
Huang Xiaocui's gaze was fixed on the money. Their family was so poor that they could barely make ends meet; they had never seen so much money before.
People in the village did not eat Soft-shelled Turtle, claiming it was harmful to their descendants, which was why there were so many Soft-shelled Turtles in the Qingshui River of this village.
"Will anything happen if you catch Soft-shelled Turtles?"
"What could happen? We're already this poor; what more could go wrong?" Zhan Lingfeng retorted.
As if she had made up her mind, Huang Xiaocui said, "You're right!"
"Mom, we people from the countryside don't like eating Soft-shelled Turtles, but people from the city do. Now that I've established a connection with Chef Yang, we can send Soft-shelled Turtles to him in the future. While everyone is still unaware, we can secretly do this business."
"We won't tell anyone else?"
"If we tell others, we won't be able to do this business. There aren't too many Soft-shelled Turtles anyway; we can only catch a few more before they run out. No matter what, let's make some money first."
Huang Xiaocui thought for a moment and said, "It's a pity your dad went south; otherwise, it would be even better if he were here to handle this."
At this point, Huang Xiaocui added, "Xiu, this matter cannot affect your studies; you don't have time to run to the city."
"Mom, I can do this every weekend; don't worry, it won't affect my studies."
Seeing her son bring back so much money at once, Huang Xiaocui no longer viewed him as just a child. She nodded and said, "Alright, just manage it as you see fit."
Zhan Lingfeng thought for a moment and said, "Mom, we can't let this get out. We should catch a few every day and keep them at home. Then we can deliver them once on the weekend."
"Okay."
"This is the clothes I bought for you, try it on."
Opening the package, Zhan Lingfeng looked at her mother's worn-out clothes and let her try them on.
Shaking her head, Huang Xiaocui said, "Our family owes over ten thousand in debt. If we go out wearing nice clothes, everyone will come after us for the money. Let's wait until we have more money to change."
Zhan Lingfeng thought about it and realized that was indeed the case. With a bitter smile, she had no choice but to put away her own clothes and change back into her old ones.
"You can read by yourself; I'm going to the water storage pond to do something for later use to hold Soft-shelled Turtle."
Now Huang Xiaocui was full of energy and hurried off to work.
Seeing her mother change from a worried expression to one of determination filled Zhan Lingfeng's heart with joy; things at home were starting to change.
When she entered the house and took out the herbs she had found on the way, Zhan Lingfeng felt extremely satisfied. She had gathered all the herbs needed for the Spirit Awakening Liquid and was just waiting to brew it.
Her mother was busy outside, so after cleaning the iron pot, Zhan Lingfeng started heating water.
Seeing smoke rising from the chimney, Huang Xiaocui hurried back inside and called out loudly, "Xiu, why are you making a fire for no reason?"
"Mom, I got a recipe for an herb that is said to enhance physical fitness. I found some herbs and I'm going to try brewing it."
"Just don't cause any problems."
"This recipe is something I saw at a book stall in the city. I'm just going to give it a try; it's nothing."
For her son, Huang Xiaocui no longer viewed him as an ordinary person after witnessing his transformation today. She thought it unnecessary to involve herself further and went out to attend to her own matters.
For an ancient being like Zhan Lingfeng, concocting this medicinal liquid was no longer a challenge. Each herb required special attention, and Zhan Lingfeng added them one by one.
After a while, a fragrant aroma began to emanate from the pot.
At that moment, his mother was called away by a playmate from her village to play cards, but Zhan Lingfeng appeared even more focused as he reached the final stages of brewing the medicine.
When the ginseng was added last, the previously rich aroma suddenly vanished, leaving only a small amount of liquid in the pot.
Zhan Lingfeng's eyes lit up; with his keen eyesight, he immediately recognized that his concoction had been successful.
He poured the liquid from the pot into a bowl, which filled perfectly.
"It worked!"
While waiting for the liquid to cool down, Zhan Lingfeng tidied up the herbs used in the brewing process and cleaned the pot thoroughly.
The process of awakening one's spirit is akin to flushing out impurities from the body, resulting in a significant expulsion of toxins. Having experienced this once before, Zhan Lingfeng naturally would not perform such a procedure at home.
After transferring the entire bowl of medicinal liquid into several bottles, Zhan Lingfeng left his house and headed to a secluded spot downstream of the Qingshui River.
This location featured gentle water flow and shallow depths.
Quickly stripping off all his clothes, leaving even his underwear behind, Zhan Lingfeng drank down all of the oat medicinal liquid in one go.
As soon as the liquid entered his stomach, Zhan Lingfeng distinctly felt a force flowing throughout every part of his body.
After quickly entering the river, Zhan Lingfeng's entire body began to exude a large amount of greasy substance.
While rapidly scrubbing himself, he also sensed the changes within his body.
The awakening had begun!
Zhan Lingfeng's whole body trembled. Although he had experienced this process once before, going through it again still made him feel extremely excited, as it marked the beginning of his cultivation journey.
Time passed slowly, and there was no intense pain, but every part of his body was undergoing transformation under the power of the medicinal liquid.
Although his originally frail body still appeared weak at this moment, it was filled with a sense of strength, as if he had boundless energy.
Zhan Lingfeng knew that in the year to come, his body would undergo a significant change; this was a gradual process.
Exceptional Spiritual Root!
His Spiritual Root had finally been activated!
He took out the specially purchased soap and washed himself thoroughly until all the greasy substances were gone. Zhan Lingfeng felt refreshed afterward.
After drying off, when Zhan Lingfeng got ashore and put on his clothes, he realized that his strength had significantly increased. Now, carrying over thirty pounds felt effortless, and even carrying over a hundred pounds to the countryside would be completely manageable.
