Chapter 742: Chapter 742: What a Sin
Confronted with a sea of resentful faces, Xuzhou pursed his lips and, after a second of silence, said, "You’re welco, it’s what I should do."
Crowd: "..."
"Pff—" Ji You couldn’t help bursting into laughter, saying, "Little Zhouzhou, I didn’t expect you to be so cheeky!"
Cheeky?
Xuzhou didn’t understand, but his eyes were still fixed on Senior Brother Han Zheng’s 3-star warrior dal, his tone tinged with evident excitent: "I think raising cows is great! The higher the difficulty, the greater the progress."
Hearing this, everyone else sported constipated expressions, but Ji You patted his thigh and praised, "Good job, Little Zhouzhou! I admire courageous people like you! I’ve decided—let’s crown you the ’Cattle Raising Vanguard!’"
Xuzhou: "..."
What is a ’Cattle Raising Vanguard’?
Ji You promptly explained: "It ans that you will take the lead in all the cattle raising tasks and blaze the trail."
With a stern face, Xuzhou, his rough features unflinching, said, "Okay."
...
The matter was settled, the outco irreversible, everyone resigned themselves to their fate, and under the sympathetic gaze of other teams, Ji You and the rest hurriedly boarded a floating car that had sped to their location, heading for the Cow Farm.
minutes.
It took that long to arrive at the destination; Ji You estimated that they had taken a very long detour.
The distance from the camp was probably not less than 1000 kiloters, practically impossible to reach by foot in one day.
Ji You slapped his forehead, "Miscalculation! Our assignnt location isn’t limited to just near the camp."
The others had long since realized this, and their expressions were none too pleased.
The Cow Farm was vast, one could only see endless green pastures at a glance, with a row of modern buildings on one side containing all cows.
There were yellow cows, black cows, dairy cows, water buffalo...
Countless, innurable.
On the floating car, everyone was clicking their tongues in astonishnt, "This... so many!"
The person responsible for bringing the students was an intelligent robot, which said, "Not many, there are only 500,000 cows maintained across the entire planet to sustain natural grass supply."
500,000!
And this wasn’t considered a lot?
Also—
500,000, all left to their care, just the 10 of them?
Clearly, Ji You and the others’ ominous premonitions soon ca true. The robot’s tone, flat and digital, stated, "Group 44 students, in the coming days, these lovely cows are entrusted to you, please take good care of them."
Yue Qiguang was the first to jump up, loudly protesting, "Hold on, I object! Dear Mr. Robot, what’s lovely about this herd?"
"That’s right!"
"Not lovely at all."
"They’re practically devils!"
For once, everyone unanimously agreed with Yue Qiguang.
The robot’s tone remained steady, stating, "Then—please take good care of these not-so-lovely cows."
Ji You and the others: "..."
Ji You waved a hand, saying, "Forget it. Let’s not dwell on this minor issue. Mr. Robot, what exactly do we need to do? Any guidelines?"
The robot handed Ji You an instruction sheet, saying, "Everything’s here, you just need to complete these tasks daily."
Everyone crowded around and looked at it, a bit speechless:
First, every morning at 5 AM, drive all the herds into the grazing areas of the ranch. After 9 AM, bring the cattle back to the barn.
Second, at 9:10 AM, begin milking the cows.
Third point: the herd of water buffaloes must be scheduled for a 1-2 hour river bathing ti every day, and once they are in the water, they are reluctant to co ashore, so they must be driven ashore within 2 hours.
Fourth point: pregnant cows must be supplented with an extra batch of fresh grass, which needs to be completed before 5 p.m.
Fifth point: If necessary, assist the cows in giving birth and ensure the safety of mother and calf.
Sixth point.
Seventh point.
...
The task arrangent is not much, just 10 points, but each one looks really troubleso.
Everyone looked at each other and then all turned towards Xuzhou, shouting loudly: "Xuzhou— hand over your life!"
Xuzhou: "..."
Xuzhou couldn’t help but take a step back, slightly embarrassed: "The problem may not be as severe as everyone imagines."
Everyone: "It is severe!!!"
Xuzhou couldn’t help but take another step back.
anwhile, the robot said: "These are all the tasks, but I need to remind you that if any task is not perford properly, there will be a punishnt."
Everyone: "..."
Everyone covered their chests, pleading: "Please, no more, we can’t handle it."
But the robot, ignoring these protests, continued chanically: "For each day a task is not completed, add a day to your work schedule. There is no upper limit. Also—if there are any mistakes or incompletions in a day, the food supply for everyone will be canceled for that day."
Everyone: "!!!"
Ji You opened her mouth: "No upper limit? Does that an they want us to spend our lifetis here raising cattle~"
Chu Jiaojiao wailed loudly: "I’d rather die than raise cattle here!"
Yue Qiguang frantically grabbed his hair: "Dad wants to hit soone!"
At this, everyone once again glared at Xuzhou with murderous eyes completely focused.
Xuzhou swallowed hard, feeling— a bit overwheld by the pressure.
Ji You also took a deep breath: Fortunately, it wasn’t her who drew straws. But Little Zhouzhou’s luck is really bad, from now on, no matter how tough, exhausting, or difficult it gets, he won’t be allowed to draw straws."
After explaining so precautions, the robot then announced: "It’s now 2:30 p.m., just a friendly reminder, the water buffaloes haven’t bathed today, and the milking hasn’t been done either. Students, hurry up and get to work."
With that, the robot turned itself off imdiately!
No matter how much everyone called, the robot just wouldn’t turn back on.
Everyone: "..."
Originally, they had hoped to get more cow raising techniques from the robot, Ji You sighed and said: "Stop calling, it’s obviously Elder Mu who initiated the forced shutdown. Now we can’t rely on anyone but ourselves."
Saying that, she looked at her 9 teammates and asked, "By the way, does anyone have experience with raising cattle?"
Sheng Qingyan cursed and mumbled: "What a silly question, how could soone cute like
end up raising cattle?"
Ji You pointed it out, saying: "You are raising cattle right now."
Sheng Qingyan tottered and yelled with all his might: "No no??I don’t want to believe it??"
"Another one goes crazy." Ji You shook her head, not just Sheng Qingyan, but Chu Jiaojiao, Yue Qiyuan, Yue Qiguang, Lou, Lance, Zhang Ye, even the usually calm Shen Changqing showed a hint of panic in his eyes.
"Ai!"
"Unreliable!"
"All unreliable!"
Ji You loudly sighed, then turned to Xuzhou: "Little Zhouzhou, you caused this, you go try first."
Xuzhou: "..."
His biggest wrongdoing, was it not taking her place to draw straws?
