Farming Druid - Chapter 64



Only Noblemtl

064. Huh? That’s….

The seed store owner looked at the two people.

“You mean salad seedlings?”

“yes-.

After hearing the tree’s answer, the boss walked across the shelf containing the boxes of sprouting seedlings, stopped somewhere, and called out to the two people.

“From here to there, there are various reasons why they are used for salad. Take a look around― and when you choose, call me―.”

After the boss left, one seedling caught the eye of the tree that was looking at the salad greens.

“Han-eum-ah―. Look at this.”

“What is it?”

Let Haneum come with curiosity.

What the tree was pointing to was spring.

“Isn’t this… a cabbage?”

The tree shook its head at Haneum’s question.

“This is spring onion, but I didn’t know it could be used in salads.”

When the tree saw the spring buds, it reminded him of his days at work.

That day was tough from the morning.

Perhaps because of his pale complexion, the female employees spoke to him one by one.

“Agent. Are you okay? Your complexion… is so pale.”

“Are you okay, Manager Han?”

“Huh? Mr. Tree. Are you okay?”

Since I was a tree who had to pretend to be normal while working, I smiled awkwardly and waved my hand saying it was okay.

Then, it was lunchtime.

The tree was lying face down on the table.

Percussion―.

I raised my head at the sound of something being placed on the desk.

“What is this?”

The tree looked at the female employee who had put down the square container and asked.

“Sir, eat. It looks like you haven’t eaten and are lying down, so eat something light and take your medicine.”

She was a female employee from the next department.

“It’s okay. I don’t have an appetite. Take it and eat it. I’m fine.”

The tree spoke and then lay down again.

“Eat something and lie down, Manager Han. I have a company meeting in the afternoon, and you don’t plan on going with a gaunt face, do you?”

“… … .”

Oh, now I remember.

It was Oh Jin-ah who was scheduled to meet with a trading company in the department next to the company.

“Eat.”

Oh Jin-ah put down a slightly sweet black tea drink along with a square container and left the office.

ha-

I had no appetite.

But, I guess I should eat it because I see the sincerity of the person who gave it to me.

When I opened the salad container lid, there was pickled spring onions with porridge.

I took a bite of the porridge with the spoon in the can and swallowed it.

It felt good to have food coming in from above.

Let’s pick up the spring onion kimchi with chopsticks and put it in our mouths.

It felt like it was refreshing my mouth from the porridge I had just had.

‘It’s delicious… … .’

As the tree looked at the spring onions, the freshness and spiciness of the spring onion pickles from that day came to mind.

“I guess this isn’t just a side dish.”

“Really? How do you make this into a salad? I’m curious. Just plant it and grow it.”

“Uh—I guess so.”

Let’s take a look around.

I saw the boss working in the distance.

“president-.”

“Have you decided?”

“Yes. Please give me 10 of each of these salad seedlings.”

“I guess there will be quite a few? Did you bring tea?”

“yes-.”

“Then we don’t need fertilizer?”

Do you need fertilizer?

When I thought about the condition of the field, fertilizer didn’t seem to be that necessary.

“I’ll just take some seedlings first.”

“Yes.”

The boss quickly began to place the seedlings in the tray.

Let’s wait a moment.

The boss came pulling something like a cart.

Inside the cart, there were boxes of seedlings packed in compartments.

“Where is the car?”

The boss loaded the seedlings into the back of the truck.

Let’s finish the calculation.

It was a tree that received a lot of bags of seeds for sale as a ‘service’.

“You can put these in the seedbed with the soil that was provided as a service, let them sprout, and then transplant them again. All of those seeds are salad seedling seeds.”

The manager’s face was bright with a smile as he handed me the plastic bag.

Is this what country people are like?

The tree greeted me politely.

“Ah—thank you.”

The tree that left the nursery stopped by a cafe on its way out of town.

He bought a cup of coffee for Han-eum, who followed him, and got in the car after getting some coffee to go.

While driving a car.

Haneum, who was sitting in the passenger seat, opened her mouth to look out the window.

“Yesterday―. Where was the sea that Bora and Saimdang talked about?”

The tree, which was driving ahead, glanced at me and asked.

“curious?”

“Oh. There’s a natural cave. I’d like to see it.”

I was curious about Haneum’s words, because I hadn’t been to the tree since I was little.

“Well, that’s what it is.”

Boohoooooooo

The tree turned the car around nearby.

We headed to ‘Gyeonggye Cape’ that Bora and Saimdang had talked about.

It took about 20 minutes by car?

The sea was occasionally visible.

Jiiing―

Haneum’s hair began to flutter as she rolled down the window.

“It smells strongly of the sea.”

“I know.”

Because it takes a bit of a walk to get to a place with an ocean view.

The tree parked the car and got out.

Percussion-

“Can I really go in there?”

I looked at the place Haneum was pointing to.

There was a narrow gap just big enough for one person to pass through.

“Oh. As soon as you pass, there will be a steep path going down to the right. If you go down carefully, you will come across a field of pebbles.”

The sound of the tree’s words first passed through the narrow gap.

Wow―

I let out an exclamation of surprise at the sight I saw.

The open sea appeared before my eyes.

Looking to the right, I saw a slightly gentle slope of stone.

At the end of the steep road, a beach full of pebbles appeared.

Let’s go down carefully.

We soon reached the pebble beach.

Wasrak-

Haneum looked back, feeling the pleasant sensation of stepping on the stone.

It was a tree standing on a slope and looking at the sea.

“What are you doing standing there? Aren’t you going to come down?”

The tree heard a voice while looking at the sea.

“Uh—I’ll go down. But what’s that black thing over there?”

As the tree reached the pebble beach.

Something was approaching, cutting through the waves of the sea.

Huh—what—

omg-

Haneum burst into laughter at the sight of something approaching, and the tree also looked dumbfounded.

Piroik- Piroriik-

What came cutting through the water was a streamlined, small dolphin-like fish.

A dolphin without a dorsal fin.

It was a dolphin.

A finless porpoise whose entire body appeared to shine in the sunlight.

“Wow, this is really… … .”

The tree also agreed with Haneum’s words.

ha-

The tree opened its mouth as it looked at the finless porpoise.

“What brought our friend here?”

At the tree’s question, the dolphin looked up at the two people as if it was curious.

Piro-oik (Wow, how jealous we are.)

Haneum looked up at the tree as she heard the whale’s cry.

It meant that I wanted an interpretation.

“It’s amazing that he understands what we say. Does his tongue sound weird?”

The tree, tilting its head, took off its shoes to go towards the porpoise.

After rolling up my trousers, I walked a little into the sea water.

Visit – Visit –

As the tree entered the sea, the finless porpoise stepped back a little.

“Hey buddy – it’s okay. Oh – do you want to try?”

Pirorok―(Eww―)

The finless porpoise opened its mouth as the tree told it to, although it was a little nervous.

?!―

The tree’s expression hardened abruptly as it looked into the dolphin’s mouth.

“Han-eum-ah, there’s a toolbox in my car. Bring the toolbox to me.”

“Why a toolbox?”

Haneum asked, striding closer from behind.

“Hey, there’s a big fishhook stuck in your mouth, piercing your tongue.”

Han-eum, who had checked the inside of the finless porpoise’s mouth over the tree’s shoulder, let out a pitiful sound and ran up to the parked car.

Let’s wait a moment.

Haneum came down with a toolbox.

I took out the longnose, also known as ‘snake’, from my toolbox and approached the finless porpoise.

“Hey buddy, I’m going to take that thing out of your mouth, so can you make it a little bigger?”

Piroiik―(Ah― Ivane, this really hurts.)

Instead of muttering, the dolphin opens its mouth a little wider.

Haneum said, holding the open mouth.

“It’s so soft and smooth. It’s my first time touching it. By the way, what’s its name?”

The tree looked into the dolphin’s mouth and said.

“The finless porpoise, a native dolphin belonging to the family Dolphinidae in the suborder Toothed Whales.”

“Ah! It’s a dolphin.”

Haneum nodded and looked at the entire appearance of the dolphin.

“Would you mind opening your mouth a little more? That’s right—you’re doing great.”

Let’s tell the dolphin to open its mouth wider.

I opened it wider.

Haneum helped keep her mouth shut by holding it in place and shining a lantern into her mouth.

The finless porpoise was caught in a large fishhook, piercing its tongue.

The tree was pulled out boldly with a long nose.

Choaaaak―

Blood spurted out from his tongue like a fountain.

Karara-gak― (Ahhh―).

At the finless porpoise’s scream, the tree patted its head as if it was sorry.

“Sorry—it was too deep to pull out without hurting you. I’m sorry if it hurt.”

Kirararak- (It hurts.)

Blood continued to flow from the dolphin’s tongue.

“Han-eum-ah―Is there any way to stop the bleeding?”

Let’s look at Haneum.

He reached out and pressed up and down on the dolphin’s tongue.

“You hold it down like this.”

“uh-.”

Han-eum brought her own medical bag along with her toolbox, so she took out gauze and a Koban bandage from the bag and returned.

“But if you wrap this up, won’t I have to come here tomorrow and check the condition?”

“Really? You’re going up early tomorrow morning.”

“Let’s wrap it up and think about it.”

After attaching gauze above and below the tongue of the finless porpoise.

He wrapped his tongue with a Koban bandage.

Beep-(I feel strange-)

The tree patted the dolphin’s head and said.

“I’m a doctor here. I’m doing this to stop the bleeding from your tongue.”

Ppyeong-ong? (Then, should I come here tomorrow?)

“Will you come if I call you?”

In response to the tree’s question, the dolphin nodded its head.

“I guess the dolphin is quite intelligent?”

“Because it’s a dolphin… … .”

After the tree answered Haneum’s question.

I looked at the dolphin.

“I’ll be here tomorrow morning. Let’s meet tomorrow.”

Beep, beep, beep (Yeah, yeah, thanks for the treatment.)

After the finless porpoise has its hook removed.

My pronunciation has become a little more accurate.

I’m sure you’ll hear clearer pronunciation tomorrow.

A tree sitting on the pebble beach, roughly drying its feet with a towel from its toolbox and putting on its shoes.

Haneum stared at the tree and giggled.

“Why are you laughing?”

“No―. I was wondering if my friend was a real Druid.”

ha-.

The tree sighed and opened its mouth with a smirk.

“If there’s anyone who would most envy someone’s ability to communicate with animals, it would probably be veterinarians.”

“I guess so?”

The tree looked out at the sea, smiling.

From a distance, a finless porpoise was showing off its impressive jump.

It looked like a scene from a movie.

“Thanks for sending me such wonderful scenes.”

Haneum is looking at the sea.

“Did you take a picture?”

“Huh? No.”

“Take a picture quickly. Those are precious.”

The tree had already taken out its cell phone and was filming and taking pictures.

“Don’t you see it every day as a Druid?”

“What? It’s my first time in the ocean today. It’s my first time seeing a finless porpoise since the killer whale.”

“ah-.”

The tree was smiling happily while watching the video.

“You―. Are you going to upload it to that video channel?”

“Uh-. I think it’ll get views. These days, if you upload a video of the five cat brothers, the views go up quite a bit.”

Haneum burst into laughter at the tree’s words.

I’ve recently heard that along with direct sales of crops, there’s a lot of video revenue coming in.

Haneum, who was looking at the tree, spoke.

“If you make a lot of money… … .”
