“Immortal, what’s the theme this time?”

“Farming.”

“You’re not going to plant Cthulhus or Sadakos, are you?”

“Howcould you have such a bizarre idea?”

Wang flipped through his previous chat logs with Fang Cheng, then circled the entry that read “Spreading Traditional Culture Starting from Me” and highlighted the educational tag.

“What’s wrong with this game? It’s very educational.”

Seeing Fang Cheng’s reply, Wang sighed, knowing this kid was beyond help.

Of course, he didn’t rule out the possibility that the other party was feigning ignorance, but Wang felt the guy probably really thought there was nothing wrong with his game.

If there had been even a shred of self-awareness, he wouldn’t have been completely devoid of it.

However, since the other party had provided him with a test code and rewarded him with a spaceship, Wang knew he had to repay this favor no matter what.

Heading to the bathroom to change into adult diapers and ready to put on a heart rate monitor, Wang even washed his face to make himself look a bit cleaner, thinking at least he would look better while running away in tears.

And, looking at the game’s name sent over by the other party, Wang sighed again.

“Plant Grass.”

Fair enough, succinct and clear, certainly a title that made one think of farming.

Apart from being a bit abstract, there were no other issues.

After the download was complete, Wang set up the livestream, put on the heart rate monitor, and went online punctually at 8 PM, then began the livestream, saying to the room, “Guys, we’re not playing ‘Quiet Cultivation’ tonight.”

[Fine, I’m out then, Old Man.] Someone immediately said.

Noting down the speaker’s name on his blacklist, Wang continued, “Today, we’re playing a game sent to us by our old friend, the Living Immortal. The name is ‘Plant Grass.’

[The Living Immortal… that’s the author of “Spreading Traditional Culture Starting from Me,” right!]

[Yes, when I can’t sleep, I still go watch videos by Mom of Pingping for explanations, and I discover something new every day.]

[Enough, don’t talk about other creators in the livestream.]

“No problem, no problem,” Wang hurriedly said. “Feel free to mention Mom of Pingping. It’s okay. She even sent me a box of vegetables from her garden last time. I just finished eating them yesterday.”

Because of Wang’s previous outspokenness, he had a good reputation among creators like Mom of Pingping.

Some would send him things they’d grown every now and then, making Wang feel a tad embarrassed.

After settling down this little digression, Wang continued, “Today, our game is ‘Plant Grass.’ Don’t be misled by the quirky title, but games by the Living Immortal always have a unique charm, so I’m really looking forward to it.”

“By the way, I’ve discussed it with the Immortal. This game can be freely downloaded. If you’re interested, you can get the download link at the top of the comment section. All right, let’s officially start.”

While Wang was livestreaming, Fang Cheng was on Spirit Grass Planet, watching Wang as he entered the game below.

Even though he had jumped from the original world to this one, enlarging the size of the Spirit Gathering Array and strengthening the spells left on the person’s body slightly meant there would be no problem controlling it.

The character controlled by Wang looked blankly around with an expressionless face, resembling nothing so much as a lifeless block of wood.

But at the same time, Wang’s somewhat apprehensive voice rang out, “The game seems pretty normal, huh? But I won’t rule out the Living Immortal preparing a big surprise for me. Alright, since it’s a farming game, let’s start by chopping trees. Speaking of which, how did this meme of chopping trees before farming start? Seems like everyone’s doing it now.”

Approaching a big tree, Wang shakily started to cut it down, occasionally stopping to check his surroundings, just in case something jumped out to scare him.

Even though he knew the Living Immortal wouldn’t resort to such simple scares, he was still frightened.

The original “Spread” had left too deep an impression on him.

But this game was clearly not of that kind.

The sun shone brightly, the branches were lush with leaves, and there were no insects or beasts around, only a world made up of plants which was exceptionally quiet and harmonious.

After felling a nearby tree in just a few strokes, Wang felt as though he had actually chopped down a tree and couldn’t help saying, “This feels even better than ‘The Forest’s Second Son.’ Ah, I’m not trying to promote one at the expense of another, it’s really true.”

“[Wang’s right.]” one viewer, who had downloaded the game and was playing it while watching the live stream, said, “[I can testify, it really is better than ‘The Forest’s Second Son.’ You’ll know once you try it.]”

“[I am that tree, I can prove it!]”

Without Wang needing to prompt, viewers in the live chat would automatically make jokes, livening up the atmosphere and giving him an easy time.

Using the felled trees to construct some tools, Wang carefully searched the underbrush and found some seeds, then cradling these hard-earned seeds, he returned to his camp.

“This game has no tutorial, everything has to be explored on your own. Independent games often come without tutorials, but it’s still better to have one next time. However, it’s no issue without a tutorial, I, Wang, have played many farming games, so I know what to do even without guidance.”

Having planted the seeds in the plowed fields, Wang watered them and then chatted with his audience while keeping an eye on the seeds.

However, after chatting for half an hour, discussing everything from national affairs to adult anime and then on to the military conflicts of northern neighbors—with Wang having drawn over a dozen situation maps—there was still no sign of life from the soil before him.

“Is there a problem with this game?” Wang couldn’t help but say, “We’ve got sunlight, we’ve got water, so what’s the deal with the grass not sprouting? Don’t tell me these plants sprout according to real-time, how long do I have to wait then?”

“[Old Man,]” a player who had downloaded the game bragged, “[I’ve already harvested, oh! The plant I got is Kitty Grass, these grasses meow like cats and don’t shed, so cute to death.]”

To prove he wasn’t lying, this player even shared a photo of himself with the Spirit Grass.

In the photo, the player with a vacant look flashed a peace sign while a large group of kitties surrounded him, each with a tail connected to the stem of a plant.

Thanks to the inherent quality of the game, these kitties looked both realistic and adorable with the filter applied.

Especially since these Kitty Grass require only a little water and sunlight each day to live, effectively turning a farming game into something that feels like a “pet house.”

At that moment, the DNA of cat lovers was activated.

They began downloading the game en masse and, after installation, voiced their questions.

[Why aren’t my plants sprouting?]

[Where did you get your seeds? Why can’t I find any nearby?]

[Mine have sprouted, but why did I grow a dog? I’m scared of dogs the most! Don’t come over here!]”

[Um, mine is a goldfish…]”

[Mine is an octopus, and it’s quite cute…]”

[That’s not an octopus, that’s Cthulhu…]”

[Even cuter!]”

Seeing the variety of strange things everyone had grown, and then looking at his own barren field, Wang felt that there was a major problem with the game.

“Good one, Living Immortal, you had me play a game full of bugs, huh?”

I thought you had stopped messing around this time, but it turns out you’ve still created a bunch of chaos, now let’s see howl’ll…

[I know why now!]” A viewer suddenly exclaimed excitedly, “[Have you guys noticed? Those who have grown something, all have one thing in their fields!]” [What thing? Love?]”

[It’s white stones! You love-brain!]”

Wang immediately swallowed what he was about to complain about and then went off searching far and wide for white stones.

When he planted the white stones, he watched the plants in the field start to grow rapidly and turn into clumps of Cactus, Wang felt that this game was still kind of interesting.

It seemed that this was supposed to be a healing, farming game.
