When the blue light exploded, I was buying pancakes downstairs in the company.
At that moment, the world seemed to have been pressed on the mute button. The sounds of traffic on the roadside, the shouts of the breakfast stall man, and the sound of electric drills being renovated upstairs—all disappeared. Holding the seven yuan change in my hand, I looked up and saw that the sky was torn in half by a huge blue light curtain, as if someone had cut a slit in the sky with a knife.
A beam of light descended from the crack, covering the entire street.
Uncle Wang, who was queuing up to buy pancakes next to me, was the first to be hit. His entire body was held up by the blue light, suspended half a meter in the air, and his sweatshirt was blown by the wind. Then a golden panel unfolded in front of him, with words densely written on it.
"Congratulations on your awakening of [Pastoral Life System], the novice gift pack has been distributed: seed backpack, skill [Plant Affinity MAX], task [Planting the first spiritual plant]."
When Uncle Wang landed on the ground, his legs were weak, and he trembled and said, "I... I have been farming for forty fucking years, and now the system also allows me to farm?"
No one paid any attention to him. Because everyone is awake.
