BXBX NOVEL Chapter 259 Finding Herbs
In the evening, the sky started to get dark. It was about 7 p.m. when Bai Chen got back home and dined with his parents.
Of course, he was back to his 18-year-old form.
Then, he went up to his room and take a shower.
After that, Bai Chen sat on his bed and thought about what happened during the day with the drug dealers.
He and Xu Xin Tong had waited for the backup for 20 minutes.
Once they arrived at the scene, he’d excused himself immediately.
However, he had not been able to leave because he had to speak with the officers at the station about what had happened.
That was why Bai Chen had arrived home late at night. He’d spent some time speaking to them.
Other than giving his statement, he had also received thanks from Xu Xin Tong.
He had merely politely accepted it and excused himself.
Then, he’d used his thousand-face skill to change back to his 18-year-old self, as he was right now.
“Only 240 more magical bonuses and I’ll be able to do an exchange for a medium-grade item!”
Bai Chen talked to himself excitedly. He could not help but expect the best result from the medium-grade skills or items.
Bai Chen knew that he had to quickly complete more missions to gain as many bonuses as he wanted.
“Let’s see what the next mission is,” he said and opened the mission window up.
---
[Mission 30: Search for herbs]
Description: You have to search for a herb called the ‘four-petaled dewdrop flower’.
Reward for success: Win 60 points + 60 magical bonuses
Penalty for failure: -30 points
---
“Search for a herb?” Bai Chen repeated immediately after reading the details of mission 30. He frowned.
The thing that made him frown was not the name of the mission. It was something else.
It was because there was no green guiding arrow this time!
No! There were no green arrows to guide him at all!
This was the first time without a green arrow. Thus, it was only normal for Bai Chen to frown.
“Why is it like this?”
His eyebrows furrowed even tighter as he thought about it. His mission would be a lot harder without it.
Bai Chen gave serious thought to this for a while. Then, he finally realised something.
It was about mission 30: ‘Search for herbs’.
He thought that maybe there would not be any arrow if the mission was about searching for something.
He was not so sure about what he had thought of because it had never happened before. However, he could not think of any other reason for it.
“Forget about it. I’ll wait until there are more missions like this and see if there will be an arrow that will lead the way.”
Bai Chen shook his head before thinking about where he should start searching for this ‘four-petaled dewdrop flower’.
No matter how much he thought, he could not find any way because he’d never heard of this herb before.
“Maybe there’s some information in Baidu.”
Bai Chen thought about using Baidu, the search engine. Thus, he did not hesitate to take out his phone and search on Baidu.
However, he could not find anything about the four-petaled dewdrop there.
“How is this possible?” Bai Chen did not want to believe it because Baidu was a massive, wide-reaching search engine. Thus, it was impossible that there was no information about the herb at all.
“Maybe it’s such an ancient herb there’s no information about it.”
Bai Chen complained a little bit about it, but he did not think that it would be impossible to find.
The reason why he thought so was that there were 60 points for the mission. Therefore, he did not think that it would be any more difficult than the previous mission.
The previous one must have been harder because there were as many as 100 points for it.
Bai Chen was confident that he would surely find it even without any guiding arrow or information about it.
“I should go ask at herbal shops,” Bai Chen said. “I’ll drop by the shops in town tomorrow.”
Bai Chen did not plan to do the mission today. He was going to start tomorrow.
This was because it was already nighttime. It was inconvenient to go out and do it.
That was why Bai Chen quickly turned off the light and went to bed.
................................................
The next morning, Bai Chen had to go to school because it was Monday. He left home early after helping his parents with shop preparations.
He went through his usual routine in school until school ended at around 4 p.m.
Bai Chen quickly got out of school immediately. He did not want to waste any more time.
Of course, he had a task to find a herb called the ‘four-petaled dewdrop flower’.
If he could not do it, he would fail the mission for sure. There was no time limit for it, but he did not want to be complacent and fail the mission.
Failures affected him a lot as they would delay his revenge.
Bai Chen waited for a taxi. He would take one downtown to find a herbal shop. He wanted to see if the shop would have this four-petaled dewdrop flower.
“Bai Chen.”
While he was waiting, he heard a voice calling his name.
It was none other than Li Lin. Her dress suited her figure and her cute, doll-like face.
“Li Lin, why are you still here?” Bai Chen turned to look at her and asked. “I thought you had something to do.”
Before this, Bai Chen and Li Lin had parted ways because Li Lin had told him that she had some business to take care of.
“I don’t have any more business. My father said that he wanted to talk about something important, but he has this urgent business that he has to rush off to, so I don’t have to hurry home anymore.”
Li Lin gave her an answer. She stopped at Bai Chen’s side.
