Chapter 138

The picnic blanket was filled with dishes prepared by A Yan. Among the meats alone, there was barbecued meat, steamed meat with taro, and stir-fried meat with garlic sprouts. In addition, there were fish soup, roasted taro, and stir-fried star fruit vines.

In addition to the fruit, other parts of the Star Chain Fruit are also edible. Of course, A Yan only allowed the cubs to pick the freshest vine leaves.

The vine leaves are tender green. After stir-frying over high heat, they become fresh and refreshing, with a light sweetness, which is perfect for relieving greasiness.

In addition to the star chain fruit, the leaves of the Yingcui beans can also be eaten as vegetables. However, due to the small quantity, A Yan kept them for the time being and only stewed and stir-fried the picked Yingcui beans.

The aroma of food wafted across the riverbank, and it really felt like a picnic.

Among all the dishes, Su Ci finally found a plate of grilled fish. The fish was burnt yellow and slightly black, and its tail had been roasted into charcoal. If you peel off the outer skin, the fish meat is still edible.

The Red Flame Tiger, who had been squatting nearby, noticed Su Ci's gaze and lowered his head in shame.

"I will continue to work hard." Ran Lie said.

Su Ci didn't say anything, took a sip, and nodded: "Not bad."

As for the burnt fish, they had all turned into ashes and were buried in the soil by A Yan to be used as fertilizer for the fields.

Ran Lie finally felt better.

"That afternoon..."

He wanted to continue practicing grilling fish, but the breeder said, "We're still going to the Magic Flower Valley this afternoon. You need to use up all of your Red Flame Power before returning."

"Okay." Ran Lie agreed.

He has also realized the benefits of this training method. In the past, he would not have been able to perform such delicate operations as controlling the Red Flame Grilled Fish, nor would he have been able to do the simple retraction and release of the fire as easily as he does now.

After these few days of "devil training", I can control myself even more, but I can control myself freely.

As Chi Yan was controlled by him, Ran Lie could clearly feel that the violent blood power in his body was becoming tamed bit by bit.

He believed that before long, he would no longer have to consume all the power of the red flame before he could restore his human form like he did now.

At this time, Rong Heng and the others had finished stir-frying the Yingcui beans. After sprinkling spices on A Yan and mixing them carefully, the crispy and delicious fried beans were ready to be served.

All the cubs sat together on the tablecloth.

Everyone got their own bowl and spoon. Although they had already guessed what would happen, the cubs couldn't help but cheer when Su Ci nodded and told them to eat whatever they wanted.

Even the calmest Rong Heng started laughing, not to mention the always noisy little wolf cub.

"Yeah, Susu is the best!"

It’s no wonder they were excited. Although the food has improved a lot now, their staple food is still nutritious porridge. They have never tried eating only meat and vegetables like this!

A Yan put a large piece of roasted taro in each cub's bowl as the staple food. So, after Su Ci gave the order, the cubs began to enjoy the fruits of their labor.

The surface of the roasted taro is sprinkled with magic honey. After roasting, it exudes the unique sweetness of caramel. The roasted taro is not dry and hard, but soft and dense, with a particularly good taste, and it makes you feel full when you eat it.

Although you may feel choked if you eat too much, you will feel comfortable immediately after taking a sip of the sweet and delicious fish soup.

Stir-fried vine leaves, beans, and garlic sprouts were the first time for all the children except Xuewei. Even little Langze, who loved meat the most, thought these green "vegetables" were particularly delicious, not to mention Lu Jiao and the others.

The newly added delicacies are very popular, but barbecue is our unchanging love.

Of course, there are also steamed meat with taro and stir-fried meat with garlic sprouts. The cubs only then realized that there are so many ways to eat meat!

The cubs, who were enjoying this kind of treatment for the first time, buried their heads in eating quietly and forgot to talk.

The breeze blew gently, and the new green leaves on the river bank swayed in the wind. The fish in the water swam peacefully, and the aquatic plants at the bottom of the river gradually grew lush.

After filling his stomach, Su Ci lay down comfortably and closed his eyes comfortably.

Noticing that he had his eyes closed to rest, the cubs consciously slowed down their movements, being careful not to make any noise, and carefully swept away all the food on the plates, even the juice.

If A Yan hadn't stopped him, the little wolf would have wanted to pick up the plate and lick it.

When A Yan took away the dishes and had the Red Flame Tiger carry them back to the nursery to wash them, he still looked reluctant because...

It’s so delicious! How can Brother Ayan make so many delicious things!

The little wolf cub touched his bulging belly with a look of satisfaction on his face. He felt that this was the happiest day of his life!

He took a fancy to the seat next to Su Ci, moved over secretly, and then lay down happily next to the young man.

The boy lay on the tablecloth in a big letter shape, feeling the slightly moist breeze from the river bank. He stretched out comfortably and found that he would soon feel sleepy if he lay like this.

With the first person following the trend and lying down, there will naturally be a second and a third...

When little Lihua rubbed her eyes and wanted to pull her brother to lie down and sleep together, Xuewei took out a picnic blanket and spread it on the ground so that all the cubs could lie down.

Of course, except for Xiao Zhengxing who never likes to join in the fun.

After eating, he hid in the tent again and began to digest the insights he gained from controlling the spacecraft today.

Admittedly, he gained a lot of knowledge from the base's intelligent computer, but to fully transform it into his own, he still needed some practice.

However, it was indeed easy to feel sleepy after eating, and he had expended a lot of mental energy in the morning. He yawned slightly, then forced himself to stay awake and continue to digest those insights.

He thought, wait until Langze comes to find him, then sleep well...

Outside the tent.

The little wolf cub who lay down first suddenly opened his eyes and sat up abruptly when he was about to fall asleep.

He looked around, then stood up and walked into the tent. Sure enough, he saw Xiao Zhengxing curled up in the corner. He was obviously getting sleepy, but for some reason he refused to sleep.

"Xingxing, let's go out for a nap. Everyone's outside! And it's so stuffy in the tent. It's so comfortable to have a breeze outside!"

As he said that, the boy bent down and picked up little Zhengxing.

As expected, after hearing his voice, little Zhengxing was obediently picked up by the boy, then rested his head on his shoulder and let his consciousness fade away.

Langze carried him out of the tent and lay down in the same position as before. Little Zhengxing was placed between him and Su Ci. Then he could no longer hold on and closed his eyes and fell asleep.

When A Yan and Chi Yan Hu came back, they saw the cubs sleeping next to Su Ci.

He pursed his lips and let Chiyanhu find a place to sleep. He walked over, moved Langze and Zhengxing away a little, and squeezed himself next to Su Ci.

The place next to Susu can only be his!

Of course, before lying down, A Yan did not forget to cover the cubs with blankets to prevent them from catching cold.

I have to say, the sight of these cubs sleeping huddled together like little animals is quite heartwarming, and it becomes even more adorable after the furry red-flamed cat lies down.

When A Yan was covering the cubs with blankets, he also imitated Su Ci and touched the furry animal ears on each of their heads.

The sleeping cub was completely unaware. Even if it was woken up, it would just turn over, rub the blanket against itself, and then go back to sleep.

In addition to the fact that this situation is indeed suitable for sleeping, these young children are indeed tired after a busy morning and need sleep to restore their physical and mental strength.

A Yan didn't feel sleepy. After Chi Yanhu fell asleep, he sat next to Su Ci and took out a notebook to write the divine text.

The last time he dismissed Blood Rain, he had used up all his previous stock, so he had to replenish it as soon as possible.

When Su Ci woke up again in the afternoon, the cubs were gone - they were woken up by A Yan and went back to the nursery for class.

Moreover, it is not good for the cubs to leave the nursery for too long, after all, people from the nursery will be coming now.

So when Su Ci woke up, only A Yan was by his side.

Noticing his movement, A Yan turned his head to look at him and gave him a cute smile, "Su Su, you're awake."

Su Ci was not fully awake yet and did not respond. He stared at him for a while, then stretched out his hands, grabbed A Yan's ears and rubbed them.

Not only did A Yan not resist, he also smiled happily.

After a long while, Su Ci finally woke up completely. He let go of the child, slowly sat up, looked at the empty riverbank again, and asked, "Have they all gone back?"

"Well, they went back to class." A Yan said with a smile.

Su Ci nodded, stretched, stood up, and said to him, "Let's go and take a look downstream."

A Yan quickly put away the notebook, and then followed him along the river all the way to the place downstream where the river was blocked.

There is a cliff here. Once the river becomes flowing water, it will flow down the cliff and become a huge waterfall. Unfortunately, the source of the river is blocked for some reason.

Water is the source of life, and this river must be dredged sooner or later.

Su Ci and A Yan flashed to the bottom of the cliff.

You can see that there is a large pit several meters deep under the cliff, which should have been formed by the impact of water flow, and then a river meandered to the south.

This river has naturally dried up.

However, yesterday's rain made the dry riverbed moist. Like the river channel upstream, it gathered a lot of mud monsters that lived on resentment.

Su Ci eliminated and purified these mud monsters, and then directed A Yan to draw a water purification barrier at the bottom of the river.

The impact of the water flow is very strong, and it is difficult for a single water purification barrier to purify it as it passes through, so it needs to be set up in sections.

Once the river channel is dredged, the water flow can carry moss and aquatic plants to far places, and the fish will be washed away. Over time, a new ecology will be established.

Although purified water will inevitably be contaminated again as it flows forward, things always have to be done step by step.

At least we must first ensure the water supply of this plain, and then expand the territory little by little.

Su Ci, who has an endless life, has enough patience to complete such a plan.

By evening, they had set up more than a dozen barriers, and the rest would have to wait until the next day.

When Su Ci returned to the nursery, Zhuang Shisong and Wei Ming had not yet returned. When they arrived, the cubs were all having classes next to the green space, and they did not notice that the children had run out for a picnic.

Even if the children are not around, they may not be in the mood to pay attention, because -

A mutant star chain fruit has disappeared!

After asking the cubs, they found out that this mutant Star Chain Fruit was moved away by Su Ci.

This made them very confused.

Apart from the nursery, where else can breeder Su transfer this mutant star chain fruit?

Moreover, this star chain fruit plant has grown very lush, and many of its vines are entangled with other star chain fruits. However, there does not seem to be much sign of damage at the scene.

So, how did breeder Su do it?

The two of them thought about it for an entire afternoon but still couldn't figure it out. As for the cubs, they also didn't get an answer, so they left unwillingly.

Fortunately, they finally waited for Su Ci.

Facing their question, Su Ci did not answer, but just asked: "How is the garlic sprout?"

"The situation is a bit more stable today. I can get within ten meters of it without being stunned." Zhuang Shisong said, "Of course, getting any closer is still not possible."

Moreover, the strong smell would still spread from time to time, causing headaches and confusion for the researchers.

"Boss Cen hopes you can go over and take a look." Zhuang Shisong relayed Cen Liang's message, "The mutant garlic is in its most critical differentiation phase. We're not sure if this situation will have any impact..."

Unconsciously, Su's poems have established authority.

The fact that he had plant bloodline also spread in the cultivation garden. When Cen Liang suggested that he go over to take a look, no one questioned it anymore.

However, Su Ci shook his head and said, "I won't go there for the time being."

The little garlic must have been excited again when it saw him. It was emitting garlic smell when it was happy, which was really frustrating and funny.

"Its smell can dispel pollutants," Su Ci said. "You all carry pollutants to some extent, so you faint when you smell an overly strong gas."

After hearing Su Ci's explanation, Zhuang Shisong and Wei Ming suddenly understood.

No wonder Keeper Su didn’t faint!

They originally thought it was the plant blood he carried, but if that was the reason, then that made sense.

Because Breeder Su has only been on Prison Star for a short time, the concentration of pollutants in the base has recently decreased for unknown reasons, so the pollutants accumulated in his body should be very small.

"That is to say, when the pollutants in our bodies are close to zero, we won't faint when we get close to the mutated garlic even if the smell is strong, right?" Wei Ming asked excitedly.

"Yes." Su Ci nodded. "As for the differentiation period, as long as it is adequately nourished, it should grow normally."

With Su Ci's words, Zhuang Shisong and Wei Ming were completely relieved.

However, they did not give up on the mutated Star Chain Fruit.

"Keeper Su..."

Before they could finish, they were interrupted by Su Ci, "I know what you want to ask. I will tell you after you pass my test."

These two people are truly experts in planting, and Su Ci will never let them go no matter what. However, Su Ci is still waiting to see whether to demonstrate his abilities in front of them or to train them to become spiritual plant masters.

Zhuang Shisong and Wei Ming were stunned for a moment, then they remembered that they had previously asked Su Ci to accept them as students.

When breeder Su said that he was testing them, he really meant that he was giving them a chance!

The two of them couldn't help but be ecstatic, and quickly said to Su Ci: "Okay, we understand! But this test... what exactly is it?"

Su Ci shook his head. "Just do your job well. I will make my own judgment."

Therefore, Zhuang Shisong and the others did not dare to ask any more questions.

"Then we'll leave first and come back tomorrow!"

After saying goodbye to Su Ci, they happily rushed back, ready to share the important information about the mutant garlic with other breeders.

After watching their hurried figures disappear into the night, Su Ci withdrew his gaze.

When he turned around, he saw the Red Flame Tiger squatting behind him, staring at him eagerly, and did not go back to the room.

Su Ci then remembered what he had said to him at noon, and had to take the Red Flame Tiger to the Demon Flower Valley again.

The giant spider's nest, where spiders of all sizes live, constantly looking out of the nest.

It was getting dark, so the little fire-breathing tiger wouldn't show up anymore! As night fell, all the giant spiders that had gone out to avoid disaster slowly returned.

However, just when they were rejoicing that they could finally rest, that violent aura appeared again...

When they sensed the breath coming from the cave entrance, all the giant spiders became angry.

Is it ever going to end?

They all waved their jointed legs and crawled towards other passages in the cave. If they couldn't afford to provoke them, could they just hide? Unfortunately, how could Su Ci let them run away like this?

Transparent barriers appeared one after another, blocking the giant spider in its nest before it could escape.

Now Ran Lie, who had grown bolder, roared at the entrance of the cave, then rushed directly into the giant spider's nest to fight, completely recklessly.

He was not rescued by Su Ci until the power of the red flame was completely exhausted.

It is worth mentioning that this time Ran Lie persisted for five minutes longer than yesterday, and the number of giant spiders he killed also increased significantly. It was visibly improving every day.

After returning, Su Ci handed the boy to the nanny robot, then went to inspect the green space and transferred the three most tenacious Star Chain Fruits into the spirit storage bag, preparing to transplant them to the mountains tomorrow.

The three star chain fruits directly filled the first soul storage bag. Su Ci returned to the dormitory and began to weave a new soul storage bag.

By the time I went to bed, there were three more spirit storage bags.

After giving one of them to A Yan and keeping the other two, Su Ci went to wash up and go to bed. The next day, he took A Yan to the Demon Flower Valley through the teleportation array.

A Yan didn't know why Su Ci came to the Demon Flower Valley so early, but he followed him obediently. Then he saw the young man taking him out of the valley and coming to an open space in the mountains.

This open space was obviously different from other places, the land had been purified.

Moreover, many footprints that looked like those of animals could be seen on the open space. As for the dozen or so Star Chain Fruits that Su Ci left behind yesterday, they had all disappeared.
