I woke up to find myself transmigrated into a disabled child.

Chapter 59 Thunder Clan and Thunder Cultivator

"Lezhi, excuse me for bothering you. These people are from the Thunder Clan. They have some things to discuss with you in person. Do you have time now?"

As Le Chu introduced himself, Le Zhi looked curiously at the tall figures behind him. Their appearance was noticeably different from that of the Lingyu Clan. Le Chu was already considered one of the taller young men in the clan, and he was even comparable to Le Shan, who had already chosen to enter adulthood.

However, compared to the people behind her, Le Chu was slightly inferior in height and size. Besides that, the biggest difference between the Thunder Clan and the Spirit Feather Clan was their hair. Their hair was all jet black, and it even had a purplish tinge under the sunlight, unlike the Spirit Feather Clan, whose hair was multicolored, as if they had stumbled into a two-dimensional world.

Blinking blankly, Lezhi's eyes swept over the group of people. Besides Leyun, whom she had met before, the other three following behind Lechu were all members of the Thunder Clan. The first person to catch Lezhi's eye was the one in the middle wearing a black cloak.

He was tall and slender, and even when he was being helped, he stood out among the crowd. However, his face was mostly covered by a large hood, and people could only barely see a little bit of his chin.

For some reason, the moment Lezhi saw him, her heart skipped a beat, as if a long-lost half of her body had finally been reunited, and an indescribable joy welled up from the bottom of her heart.

Seeing Lezhi staring blankly at Lei Xiu, Le Chu's eyes flashed with understanding. So that's how it is.

"Lezhi, Lezhi, what's wrong with you..." Leyun called out softly to Lezhi. She only had a vague understanding of the bond between Lezhi and Leixiu, and was not as calm as Lechu.

"Oh, I'm fine. I'm so sorry, it was my rudeness to keep you standing here for so long. Please come in!"

Awakened by Le Yun's chanting-like voice, Le Zhi realized she had been staring at the guest in a daze for so long. Her blood rushed to her head and her cheeks flushed red. She quickly invited the guest inside.

Seeing Lezhi's predicament, one of the Thunder Clan members spoke up, "No, it's because we came here without permission. We are truly grateful that you have been so kind as to receive us."

"Alright, everyone, no need to be so polite. We're all from the same tribe. Let's go inside and talk." Le Chu smiled as she looked at Le Zhi's reaction and tried to smooth things over for him.

With the host's permission, the group filed into the living room of Lezhi's house and sat down.

Le Chu had visited Le Zhi's house before, so she wasn't too surprised by the decorations. However, it was the first time for everyone else to visit. Even though they had things on their minds, they couldn't help but be attracted by the beautiful interior decorations.

A decorating style that was so popular in her past life must have its unique features. Furthermore, Lezhi had decorated the house with all sorts of plants according to her preferences. These were all brought back by Maoqiu. For some reason, lately Maoqiu has been bringing Lezhi gifts every time she goes out, mostly beautiful plants in addition to food.

Some are beautiful flowers, while others are herbaceous plants with various shapes. Although they are different in shape, they all have one thing in common: they are beautiful.

Of the vines that Lezhi had previously tried planting on the house vine, only one type survived; the others couldn't adapt to the house vine's environment. The surviving one, Lezhi said, was called the earth vine, a very common and not very useful vine that grows everywhere in Jormungand. It's incredibly resilient and can survive in any environment.

Coincidentally, among the dead wood, the only plant that successfully grew was *Gynostemma pentaphyllum*. Rakuchi had checked the other plants and found that, besides unsuitable tissue, the biggest problem was malnutrition. This was completely unfounded with *Gynostemma pentaphyllum*, as the lavender planted on it grew luxuriantly, showing no signs of nutritional deficiency.

Having read this far, Lezhi already guessed the purpose of the Earth Vine. The reason people might think it's useless is because the Tree Spirits don't need it for planting. However, anyone with even a little planting knowledge knows that plant growth boils down to a few things: water, light, and nutrients. The Earth Vine is simply natural plant fertilizer.

Having discovered this, Lezhi abandoned the other failed vines and focused on developing the uses of the Earth Branch Vine. He managed to plant any plants with roots that Maoqiu brought back on the Earth Branch Vine. Perhaps because the Earth Branch Vine was resilient enough, or perhaps because Lezhi's bribes were effective, Wumu Teng has now also accepted the Earth Branch Vine's parasitism.

The dried vines in those wooden boxes were moved outside by Lezhi for planting. Inside the house, almost all the vines were live, so that they could thrive on their own without any extra care.

So now, Lezhi's home is filled with all sorts of plants, and with the wooden walls of the house itself, people who have just come in from outside feel as if they are in another forest. However, this little world has been created by human hands, so that people and plants can coexist better without affecting people's activities.

"I'm sorry for neglecting you all. Here, please have some cucumber juice."

Lezhi carried several cups of drinks onto a tray into the living room. The cucumber water was a beverage he had made himself. He only later realized that the Lingyu tribe people usually just drank water without boiling it or thinking of adding anything to make it taste better.

Lezhi couldn't accept this, as he disliked drinking plain water more than anything else in his life. So, after discovering the wonderful thing called "cooling fruit," Lezhi tried making drinks with various fruits, the most popular of which was cucumber water with added cooling fruit juice. Moreover, under Lezhi's influence, people like Leyou and Leju, who had always been close to him, also started to boil water before drinking it.

Call him pretentious or not, although Lezhi knew that the water quality in Jormungand was much better than in his previous life, his deeply ingrained ideas were not easily shaken. Moreover, Lezhi did not force his friends to follow his ideas. It was just that Leyou and Leju chose to accommodate Lezhi's little hobby, and boiling water was not a big deal.

"Okay, thank you. Please don't say that. We're the ones who have troubled you."

Curious, the Thunder Clan members took the water cup from Lezhi and watched as Lechu naturally drank the water. They imitated him, and as soon as the cucumber water entered their mouths, a cool sensation swept through their bodies, instantly dispelling the summer heat.

"Mmm, delicious..."

He exchanged a glance with his tribesmen, a look of surprise flashing in their eyes. The leader whispered to the man in the black cloak, "Lei Xiu, you should try it too, it's quite good."

"Ah."

It was just a soft response, yet it struck Lezhi's heart like a thunderous roar. Lezhi used all her strength to conceal her abnormality, gently sat down, and watched the person called Lei Xiu drink the cucumber water she had personally prepared before letting out a soft breath.

“Alright, let’s get down to business now.” Le Chu put down her water glass and her expression turned serious. “Le Zhi, this is Rein, the current patriarch of the Thunder Clan. He’s here to ask you for a favor. He can tell you the details.”

Le Chu nodded to Raine and remained silent. Having been prompted by Le Chu's suggestion, Raine composed himself and spoke solemnly, "Hello, Le Chu. I apologize for being so abrupt. I've heard you can cure the Shadow Disease; is that true?"
