Song Tian's Farm and His Daily Life 16 Local Market at Nigh

Before Song Tian press the next channel, headline news appeared. The news reporter said, "The mysterious bone found by a young man near Trisia Cave last week turns out to be a part of the elephant's spine after identified by the professor at the country Archaeology Department."

"Really? Elephant's spine? Here I thought it would be some dinosaur's bone," Song Tian said after he watched the headline news.

Song Tian switches the channel and found nothing interesting. In the end, he turns off the TV.

Song Tian pondered, "There's definitely some dinosaurs remain on this country. It's already strange that a small continent appeared out of nowhere, but it had no evidence of ancient civilization on it."

Song Tian was perplexed at how this country even exists. The country where Song Tian's lived in is a new small continent found about one hundred years ago, which made huge uproars when it's appeared on the Earth.

The country is located at Southeast of Taiwan around the Philippine Sea. The size of the country is 5.312 million km² which replace Australia as the smallest continent on Earth.

According to the history book, Song Tian read on his school back then, It was founded by a small group of an unknown mercenary.

As to why the country didn't write the name of its founder on the history book, no one knows as it's labeled as top secret by the government.

The name of the country is Archaine. It's said that the name was taken from Greek's language Archaíos/αρχαίος which means Ancient.

Some people were speculating that the actual founder of this country was murdered and there's one man who said that it was the cultivators who found the country.

The latter was explaining to the media that this land was actually part of the Earth before when Pangea began to break apart, he said the cultivator transfer this country to another dimension to prevent the destruction of his homeland.

A lot of people didn't believe the man and the government ordered to send the man to the mental hospital for treatment.

One week after the man was sent to the mental hospital, he's mysteriously disappeared with no traces found and causing a huge uproar.

At first, the government was suspected by the people. But, not long after they released the footage video.

In the video, the man was sleeping in his room at a mental hospital. After he woke up, the man suddenly disappeared just after he washes his face.

The footage was viral and causing so many people speculating around the world. Some say that it was CG and some say that he's teleporting to another place.

"There are so many controversies on this country," Song Tian shook his head.

Song Yi suddenly interjected, "Master, there's nothing impossible, you know," she said.

Song Tian said, "Yeah, I even found out recently that the cultivation world exists for real."

"Xiao Yi? I remember that I found you in this cabin before it was renovated. Did the previous owner of this cabin, your master?" Song Tian asked.

Song Yi answered, "No, before I'm here. I was traveling around the world to find the ones who are fated with me. After I can't find the candidate, I decided to settle here to wait for the fated ones appear".

Song Yi continued, "I thought the previous owner is the fated ones as he settled on this area, but it's not. When I'm in the book form, the previous owner always read it at night."

Song Tian asked, "That means your true form is the book, right? Since you're in the book form, what is the content of the book? Don't tell me it's all filled with your information?"

Song Yi laughed, "No, before our soul was bound. I can transform into anything I want as long as it's not a living thing. As for the content of the book, I filled it with a lot of quick history all around the world, which I copied at some library when I'm looking for the fated ones."

Song Tian shook his head, he hears the sound of the car coming, "Oh, Fatty Wang is finally here," he said.

"Brother, open the door," Wang Hai knocked on the door, and Song Tian goes to the front to unlock the door.

Sat on the couch, Wang Hai looked at Song Tian, "Brother, are you sure there's a lot of people at this hour on the local market on this area?" He asked.

Song Tian said, "Yeah, my grandma and my friend on the local market tell me it was lively at night. Rest first and take a nap at the guest room, you must be tired from driving. I'll wake you up at 11 PM."

Wang Hai stretches his body, "Yes, that's what I need right now," As he walked to the guest bedroom.

Song Tian then goes to his bedroom, turning on his PC since he's not tired at all and log into his game account.

A message appeared on his game launcher, and it was from SongSurvival, "Brother, are you busy right now?"

It was Song Xia username, she's using the same username for all of her accounts on social media and games.

Song Tian typed, "No, I'm free until 11 PM. Xiao Xia, did you want to raid another tribe?"

SongSurvival immediately replied, "No, help me build a small village on the PvE server."

Song Tian laughed and typed, "Alright, I'll open the voice chat software first."

Song Tian clicks the VoIP software in the taskbar on his desktop. After software opens, Song Tian immediately joined the voice channel of his private VoIP's server.

Song Tian's VoIP's server only used whenever he plays the game with his sisters, cousins and Wang Hai.

Not long after, Song Xia joined the voice channel and said, "Brother, make new invite link for Su Wen."

Song Tian asked, "Su Wen? Did she plays the game too?" He immediately created an invite link to his VoIP's server and send it to the text channel.

Song Xia laughed, "She had the game, but never played the game. She just told me after she found out I also play this game," Song Xia said while copying the invite link and sends it to Su Wen on private message.

Su Wen joined the channel and asked, "Hello, can you guys hear me?"

Song Tian's ears ringing and said, "Su Wen, are you using your phone? Don't speak too close to your headphone's mic."

Su Wen asked, "Is it too loud? Usually, it's quite when I put the headphone's mic far."

Song Xia giggled, "It is, just let your headphone hangs and you'll be fine," she said.

Su Wen asked, "How is it now? Is it still loud? Sorry, this is my first time using this app."

Song Tian laughed, "It's fine, but it's like hearing you shouting right into my ears," He said.

Song Xia said, "Alright, I'll invite both of you now."

At 10.45 PM, Song Tian finished his gaming session with his little sister and Su Wen.

Su Wen said, "Wow, didn't expect this game to be this fun to play."

Song Xia giggled, "See, I told you it's definitely fun when played with a friend."

Song Tian laughed, "It's funny to see how she's getting chased around by sea monster when she falls off from the raft."

Su Wen said, "Hmph, next time, I will tame those for my mount."

Song Tian said, "Great, you need to learn on how to tame it first and don't just focus on building the base. Alright, I need to prepare and waking up Fatty Wang."

Song Xia asked, "Brother, where are you going with Brother Wang in this late at night?"

Song Tian said, "I'm going to the local market nearby with him, Grandma Zhao told me the market is lively at night."

Song Tian continued, "Alright, I'll log out now. Xiao Xia, don't play until morning," Song Tian clicks the disconnect button on his VoIP software.

After Song Tian put his shirt after a shower, he goes to the first floor to wake up Wang Hai.

Wang Hai wakes up after hearing Song Tian knock the door and he goes to his car to get another shirt.

Wang Hai said, "Brother, I'm going to prepare first," He said as he goes to the bathroom on the first floor.

15 minutes later, Song Tian and Wang Hai walked to the local market.

Looking at the lively crowd on the local market, Song Tian surprised with this and said, "Damn, it's totally different at night."

He could see the previous stalls now replaced with a different kind of things such as street food, traditional games, fortune teller, and many other stalls.

Song Tian turns back to look for Wang Hai but didn't find him, but he could hear Wang Hai is calling him.

"Brother, here," Wang Hai waved his hand to Song Tian.

Song Tian looked at the source of the voice, he found Wang Hai at the street food stall, chewing his food while waving at him.

Song Tian speechless and he walked toward the stall, "Damn, I thought you're lost or something," He said.

Wang Hai laughed, "How can I resist when there's such aroma. Brother, you have to try this smoked barbecue brisket" He said as he looked at the stall's owner, "Boss, another one for me and two portions for my brother here."

Song Tian took the food from the stall owner.

"Wow, it's really good," Song Tian said after he took a bite from the brisket. He quickly finishes two portions of it.

Song Tian looked at Wang Hai and said, "Follow me, there's someone I knew who opens a small restaurant here. He said he's open from 11 PM - 08 AM."

Song Tian and Wang Hai arrived at a small restaurant, "There's a lot of people here, Wang Hai, let's go to that table first before it's taken from people," Song Tian led Wang Hai to the only empty tables.

Lin Hua noticed there's a new guest on the table, She walks there to takes an order.

"Hello, what would you like to order?" Lin Hua said.

Song Tian turned back and smiled, "Yo, it's really lively at this hour, huh," he said.

Lin Hua surprised to see Song Tian, "Oh, it's you! Of course, it's lively, and this is?" She said as she looks at another young man on the table.

Song Tian laughed, "It's my brother, Wang Hai," And he said to Wang Hai, "Wang Hai, she's Lin Hua, the owner's younger sister," Song Tian said as he introduced them to each other.

Wang Hai immediately shakes the young woman's hand, "Hi, I'm Wang Hai. You can call me Brother Wang," As he introduces himself.

Lin Hua smiled as she shakes her hand with Wang Hai, "Alright, here's the menu. Just tell me or write it on this paper," She said while she handed the menu to Song Tian and Wang Hai.

Song Tian said, "I'll order pork and pepper stir fry for three portions, but put the Carolina Reaper on if you still had it and also, three glass of coffee," He said and looked at Wang Hai, "What about you? You want to try Carolina Reaper too?" He asked.

Wang Hai shook his head, "No way. I'm not a freak like you," He said.

Wang Hai continued, "I'll order Char Siu for a double portion, and two glass of lemon tea," He said to Lin Hua.

Lin Hua laughed, "Both of you ordered a lot of foods. Alright, for Song Tian's order, I'll tell my brother to replace the pepper with Carolina Reaper," She said as she walks to the kitchen.

Several moments later, Lin Hua arrives to deliver the foods for Song Tian and Wang Hai.

Wang Hai looked at Char Siu in front of him, salivating, "Woah, don't mind me," Wang Hai said as he grabbed the plate and shoving the pork into his mouth.

Song Tian laughed, and Lin Hua smiled looking at Wang Hai eating the foods, "Alright, I'm going to help my brother in the kitchen," She said as he walks to the kitchen.

Wang Hai said, "Brother, we should come here more often. The food here's really good," As he picks another pork with his chopstick.

Song Tian nodded his head and pointing at the pork meat on his plate, "Yes, it's a nice place to hang out at night. Fatty Wang, you have to try this meat. It's really great," he said.

Wang Hai hesitantly pick the pork on Song Tian's plate, "Are you sure? It has Carolina Reaper on this, right?" He asked.

Song Tian laughed and puffed his chest, "Since when I ever lie to you? Just try it, and you'll know," He smirked.

Wang Hai put his chopstick closer to his mouth, hesitantly, he ate the pork.

"Wow, it's really good" Wang Hai laughed, but he suddenly feels his throat burns, "Oh my god, I fell for your trick again," He gritted his teeth and picks the lemon tea in front of him.

Song Tian looking at Wang Hai drinking the lemon tea, "But I'm not lying, right? It's good, haha," He laughed.

Wang Hai felt relieved as the hot feeling on his throat slightly disappear, "Damn, if it's not for my spicy tolerance increased by eating with you, I would've died," He cursed.

Song Tian laughed, "I'll order some sauce online from the USA, there's a 9 million Scoville unit's sauce. It's great to increase your spicy tolerance," He said.

Wang Hai shivered, "Hell no, I'm not going to take the food from you again," He said.

Both of them continued to hang out in the restaurant until 2 AM.

Wang Hai patting his stomach, "I'm full, I can't even stand," he said.

Song Tian laughed, "Who told you to order more Char Siu," He said.

Lin Qiang walked to both of them, sat on the chair beside Song Tian, "Xiao Tian, you and your friends really eat a lot, huh," He laughed.

Song Tian laughed, "Brother, the market still lively at this hour. Looks like I'm going to come here often. Oh, where's Lin Hua?" He asked.

Lin Qiang laughed, he took out the cigarette and lits it up, "It is going to stay like this at least until 4 AM, and Lin Hua's already asleep. Oh, what's your name young man," He asked as he looked at Wang Hai.

Wang Hai said, "Brother, I'm Wang Hai. You can call me Xiao Hai. The Char Siu here is really good," He introduced himself to Lin Qiang.

Lin Qiang laughed, and after three of them talked for almost an hour, Song Tian and Wang Hai bids farewell to Lin Qiang.

Arrived at the cabin, Wang Hai yawned, "Brother, I'll stay here. I'm so sleepy," He said as he walks toward the guest room.

Song Tian laughed, "Just sleep, I'm going to collect the chicken eggs and watering all my crops before sleep," He said and picks up the Basic Watering Can.

Song Tian goes to the planted area, "I think I need to install some lamp post around this area," He said as he took out his phone and turning on the flashlight.

After Song Tian finishes watering all strawberries and garlic, he goes to the fruit trees. He pours the water on big tilled soil and notices that the soil repelling the waters.

Song Tian surprised, and he suddenly heard Song Yi voice, "Master, you only need to water the fruit trees once a week," She said.
