Chapter 153

Su Ci was quite satisfied with the water demon's ability to know the situation. Seeing A Yan's smile, he paused slightly, then reached out and rubbed his head hard.

Then, he continued to look at the fainted giant panda.

The giant panda's completely dry hair became fluffy, and it looked not as skinny as before. It looked much cleaner after being washed by the river water.

and……

Su Ci came to the side of the giant panda and squatted down, putting his palm on its big head, touching the soft and fine hair and the two semicircular black ears, and felt that the touch was really good.

A Yan, who was secretly happy because he was protected, couldn't help but curl his lips when he saw this scene.

Looking at the furry giant panda, A Yan suddenly realized that he seemed to have a new formidable enemy, and he couldn't help but ask, "Since it's a human transformed, should we hand it over to the base?"

If I hand it over to the base, I won’t be able to hang around Susu anymore, right?

However, Su Ci shook his head and said, "It has eaten many spiritual fruits before."

Although he didn't finish his words, A Yan already understood what Su Ci meant and could only nod and say, "Indeed, we need to make it do some work first to compensate for it."

Su Ci curled the corners of his lips, feeling pleased that he and A Yan had a tacit understanding.

At the same time, a faint light slowly emerged from the palm of his hand that was stroking the giant panda's head, and he injected soul power and purification power into the giant panda's body.

Soul power can regulate and suppress its bloodline power, while the power of purification will dispel and purify the resentment that has invaded its body.

However, this iron-eating beast has lived in the red fog for too long, and the resentment in its body has accumulated too much, even invading its bone marrow and blood. It is much more difficult to restore its rationality than it is for Ran Lie.

After injecting just a little bit, Su Ci felt the limit of what the iron-eating beast could bear, so he had to withdraw his hand.

"Let's go, let it rest here first."

There is plenty of food and it is very safe on the river bank. I guess it won't run around even if it wakes up - of course, even if it runs away, Su Ci has a way to get it back.

Su Ci and A Yan got up and walked downstream along the river. Finally, they came to the mouth of the waterfall and looked into the distance.

The river flows endlessly, unstoppable.

The plains below were still shrouded in red mist, and even with a water supply, they were still unsuitable for life.

Of course, in addition to the resentment contained in the atmosphere, the most crucial thing is those that he sealed in the earth.

It is difficult for green plants to grow on land infected by resentment, so if this resentment is not removed, that half of his soul will be suppressed in the seal forever.

Whether relying on purifying monsters to obtain the protection of heroic spirits and then obtain pure land, or relying on small spiritual garlic to expel the resentment in the land, neither is a completely appropriate method.

After all, the number of heroic spirits is limited, and the effect of the small garlic on resentment is only to expel it. The expelled resentment will not disappear, but will only gather in the process of being expelled, which can easily lead to other troubles and is still very troublesome to deal with.

Su Ci frowned, unable to think of a better solution for the time being, so he stopped worrying and asked A Yan to take out the water demon hiding in the spirit storage bag.

The water demon still looked like a small water ball. After being taken out, it lay anxiously in A Yan's hand.

Although it wanted to escape when it saw the waterfall, its previous experiences had taught it that escape was useless and it was better to be obedient.

"Do you see the plain below?" Su Ci said to the water demon without any further ado, pointing to the vast plain.

A pair of small eyes opened on the blood-red water ball. After looking down, it made a puffing sound as a response.

To be honest, when the water demon saw the rushing river below, he felt his whole heart trembling.

That's obviously its water source!

It had finally defeated and devoured other water monsters to obtain the water source, but after just a few years, it was all gone... Just thinking about it, it couldn't help crying.

As a result, Su Ci said, "From now on, your task will be to water this plain every day."

In fact, most of the land on Prison Star does not lack the nutrients needed for plant growth. The main reasons why plants cannot grow are three: resentment, extreme weather, and water.

Resentment and extreme weather cannot be solved for the time being, but water can be arranged.

However, when the water demon heard this, his body froze.

Did it hear correctly? It had already handed over the water source, but it was still not satisfied and wanted it to water the plain every day?

Su Ci thought for a moment and said, "You don't have to water it every day. A Yan will tell you the exact rainfall amount."

Then he looked at the water demon, "Do you understand?"

Water Demon: “…”

This human looked gentle and harmless, and his black eyes were warm and peaceful, but as soon as the water demon looked into his eyes, he felt tremendous pressure.

"Puchi..." It responded obediently.

"very good."

Su Ci nodded, and looking at its blood-red color, he couldn't help feeling a little disgusted, so he asked A Yan to put it away.

Seeing that it was getting late, he did not stay outside any longer and returned to the nursery with A Yan.

The cubs have already entered the nursery building and returned to their rooms after dinner. Zhuang Shisong and his friends usually come to the nursery in the afternoon, but after the red fog and monsters swept across the base, they were unable to come.

A Yan went to prepare dinner, while Su Ci brought the water monster to the water purification pool on the side of the nursery building and threw the water monster into the pool.

As soon as the blood-red water ball fell into the water, it activated the water purification array carved on the bottom of the pool.

The water monster naturally likes to stay in the water, but as soon as it fell into the pool, it felt something was wrong. Just as it was about to jump out, it heard the voice of the "keeper" coming from the shore.

"Water demon, transform into water and merge into the pool. Do not come out without my order."

As the voice sounded, the water demon felt his body uncontrollably transforming into a pool of water, completely merging into the pool.

The entire pool of clean water instantly turned blood red.

The water purification array that was originally only activated by Qian Qian suddenly shone brightly and began to operate continuously, constantly absorbing and purifying the resentment, and transforming the pool water into spiritual water.

The calm pool water suddenly began to boil, as if a water demon was wailing in pain.

As a monster, spiritual energy is something very annoying to it. Not only can it not help it, but it also weakens its power.

Su Ci also knew that if he continued to purify endlessly like this, he might kill the water demon directly, so he stood by the pool and observed for a while before making some modifications to the formation at the bottom of the pool.

He set it to activate once every hour and last for ten minutes, which gave the water demon enough time to recuperate.

If it was an ordinary monster, Su Ci might not go to so much trouble. After all, monsters and beasts are different from monster plants. Once their bloodline changes, it is impossible to transform them by purification.

Demons are even more extreme than monsters. Once they are free of demonic energy and resentment, they will often dissipate, just like the monsters transformed from the resentment he purified.

But the water demon is quite special. Water is originally a dead object without attributes. After it is born with intelligence, it should become a water spirit.

However, the environment in which it was born was too harsh, and after becoming a spirit, it directly degenerated into a demon, which is the evil spirit that Su Ci had mentioned before.

If he had not stopped it in time, the fledgling book spirit would probably have become a demon when it grew up, but now everything is different.

That's why Su Ci hasn't completely given up on this water monster.

It is not easy for a dead object to give birth to intelligence. Since it can be saved, he will lend a hand. After all, there is not much he can do. Whether it can purify all the resentment and eventually transform into a water spirit depends on its own luck.

The water demon naturally didn't know Su Ci's "good intentions". It endured the pain brought by the purification and finally couldn't help but emit extreme anger and resentment.

If it had a mouth, it would probably have started cursing by now.

Unfortunately, Su Ci was not soft-hearted at all.

"Just stay here and don't make trouble." Then he went to look at the plants in the green space.

Today's battle did not affect the nursery, and the red fog could not invade this pure land, so the plants in the green land grew very well and were not affected at all.

The area of ​​green space has now doubled, covering all areas that were not planted before.

"Long! Long! Long!"

I don’t know if it’s due to the influence of the surrounding green plants or the increase in nutrients in the soil, but the growth rate of the two small pear trees planted first has also increased significantly.

When Su Ci approached, one of the small pear trees emitted clearer emotional fluctuations, swaying its leaves as if to seek credit.

Su Ci bent down slightly and tapped the delicate young leaves with some disdain.

Although it grows faster, it is still much slower than the Star Chain Spirit Fruit.

"snort!"

Perhaps sensing Su Ci's disdain, the spoiled girl released an emotional wave of dissatisfaction, then bent down the branch and touched the companion next to her.

The lazy little guy who was originally sleeping soundly "woke up" in a daze.

"Grow! Together - grow! Grow! Grow!" The spoiled boy shouted the slogan again.

The other little spiritual pear tree, not knowing what was going on, could only follow suit, slowly releasing waves: "Long... long... long..."

Su Ci looked at the two spiritual pears with completely different personalities and couldn't help but smile. Although their bodies grew slowly, their minds had grown a lot.

When he inspected the green space and returned to the dormitory, A Yan had already prepared dinner.

In addition to the usual dishes, he also served Su Ci a bowl of hot lotus seed soup.

Fresh lotus seeds give off a light fragrance. They are cooked until they are soft and sticky, melting in your mouth. Add in the light sweetness of magic nectar, and you will have a lingering aftertaste.

Su Ci took just one bite, and his eyes lit up slightly, and he quickly ate the whole bowl.

"Do you want more?" A Yan asked.

"Yes!" Su Ci nodded.

A Yan served Su Ci a bowl, and then sat down to eat together. The two sat face to face, quietly enjoying the food, just like every day before.

During the day, the subtle gap between them seemed to be gradually disappearing.

After dinner, Su Ci lazily slumped on the sofa, not wanting to move at all. He listened to A Yan clearing the table, putting the plates into the dishwasher, and finally coming to sit next to him with a pot of hot tea.

This tea was naturally given by Xuewei.

Su Ci took a sip of tea, and then heard A Yan ask: "Su Su, do you want to drink?"

liquor?

"Okay, okay."

Looking at Su Ci's slightly shining eyes, A Yan smiled and said, "Then wait a little longer. Although we don't grow rice, we can also make fruit wine from the Star Chain Fruit."

The main reason is that the production of Star Chain Fruit is too much and we can’t eat it all, so we might as well make some fruit wine.

"Okay." Su Ci nodded and continued to lie on the sofa.

He closed his eyes to rest, and after a while, he suddenly opened them and turned his head to look at A Yan.

The young man sat on a single sofa, the light from above his head pouring down, making his platinum hair glow softly. There was a teacup next to him, but he didn't drink from it. Instead, he stared into the air, frowning and thinking intently.

Su Ci's heart moved and he asked, "What are you doing?"

His voice suddenly rang out, and A Yan couldn't help but pull himself out of his concentrated state. He looked at Su Ci and said truthfully: "I'm sorting out the disordered rules."

Extreme weather occurs because of the disorder of rules, which falls within the scope of the power of the Spirit of Rules.

"As long as the problem of extreme weather is resolved and the climate returns to normal, the process of earth recovery can be accelerated."

Hearing these words, Su Ci suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he couldn't help feeling something strange in his heart.

Ah Yan had indeed grown up, and just as he expected, he had become his most capable assistant. But when the moment came, Su Ci discovered...

It feels really good to have someone to share the burden with.

"Um."

He nodded in a dissembling manner, then stood up and walked towards the bathroom, saying as he walked, "Don't force it, you can take your time."

"Okay, I understand."

A Yan watched his back disappear into the bathroom, his mind full of thoughts, but in the end he shook his head, cleared away those distracting thoughts, and continued to sort out the rules.

There are just some problems that always have to be faced.

for example……

Where will he sleep tonight?

At night, when Su Ci returned to his bedroom and lay down on the bed, he felt something was wrong.

He looked at the empty side of him and frowned again. Then, there was a knock on the bedroom door and he turned his head to look.

I saw the young man standing at the door, his big furry tail hanging low behind him, the animal ears on his head drooping, but there was still a smile on his handsome face.

"Susu, I know you're not used to the way I look now, so... I'll sleep in the next dormitory tonight."

Rooms 301 and 302 next door are idle and no one lives there. The nanny robots clean them every day, so there is no need to worry about having no place to sleep.

Su Ci looked at him and said nothing.

A Yan and Su Ci looked at each other for a few times, and seeing that he had no intention of keeping him, he had no choice but to lower his head, turned around and left the room in frustration.

Su Ci was aware of this seemingly considerate but actually retreat-to-advance little thought, so he did not show any mercy this time.

After A Yan left, Su Ci lay down, closed his eyes and went to sleep.

The light in the room dimmed and fell into silence.

After an unknown amount of time, Su Ci suddenly opened his eyes in the darkness and stared blankly at the ceiling shrouded in the night.

He has always been a sleepyhead, but tonight...

I can't sleep.

He touched his side, but felt neither soft and furry ears nor the fluffy, warm, and pleasant-to-the-touch tail. There was only the empty and cold bed, just like his heart at the moment.
