Chapter 81

After answering, the little wolf cub ran towards A Yan, but after running a few steps, he turned around and saw the little white deer walking slowly with the little Zheng Xing, so he ran back again.

"Xingxing, I'll carry you over!"

After saying that, he picked up the child and continued to run towards A Yan in a hurry.

Seeing little Zhengxing being picked up and run away by the wolf cub with ease like a doll, Xiaolu Jiao was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but envy the wolf cub's physique -

Langze is really strong! When he grows up like Langze, will he be this tall?

"Yo yo! Come on!"

The cheerful voice of the little wolf cub, who had already run far away, came over.

The little white deer came to his senses and quickly responded, "I'm coming!"

He ran over there, and when he came behind them, Xiao Langze had already put Xiao Zhengxing down. The two of them squatted on the ground together, looking down at the mud in front of them.

"What are you looking at?"

The little white deer squatted down beside the wolf cub and watched curiously.

"Look at Xiao Miao!"

After answering the little white deer's question, the little wolf cub grabbed him. The wolf cub, who was always carefree, unexpectedly showed his cautious side at this moment.

"Don't step on them, A Yan said they are very fragile!"

Hearing this, the little white deer froze. At this moment, he finally saw what the "Xiao Miao" that the little wolf cubs were looking at was referring to.

I saw that the soil in front of me was softer than the surrounding soil, and the color of the soil was darker, looking pitch black. In this black soil, small green dots emerged one after another.

When the little white deer saw the tender green sprouts, it was stunned.

He knew what it was at a glance.

As a herbivore, the little white deer has a natural yearning for and affinity for green plants. When he was in the welfare home, his favorite thing to do every day was to go to the yard and bask in the sun with the plants.

In his room, there is a plastic bowl filled with sand and a small grass planted in it. Every night it emits a fresh grass fragrance, making him feel like he is always in nature.

But since arriving at the nursery, he hadn't seen a living plant in a long, long time. The little grass had also been left at the orphanage. He wondered if the robot nanny had taken good care of it...

Looking at the small green dots in front of him and feeling the vitality emanating from them, the little white deer suddenly felt a lump in his nose and his eyes became moist again.

"This is... this is a plant..." he murmured.

"Yes." A Yan's voice rang out, "These are seedlings. We just planted them today. Are they growing well?"

The little white deer nodded vigorously.

Yeah, it really looks good...

Feeling the vibrant energy coming from the seedlings, the little white deer felt a surge of emotion in his heart, and his nose felt increasingly sore. He tried hard to control his emotions and whispered, "Thank you for bringing me to see them..."

A Yan gave him a strange look, but still responded, "You're welcome."

At this time, he heard the little white deer ask again: "Will they grow well? I heard from Doctor Gu that the environment here is not good and it is difficult to grow plants..."

At this point, the little boy's eyes turned red again.

He stared at the little green sprouts emerging from the soil, and a look of distress and sadness appeared on his face at the thought that they might die in the future.

A Yan felt a slight headache when he looked at the little crying baby, but he still said patiently: "Don't worry about that. With Su Su around, they will of course grow up well."

The little white deer blinked, Su Su is here...

Yes, Susu is so amazing, there must be a way to keep these lovely plants alive!

Thinking of this, the little white deer immediately cheered up.

Then, he heard A Yan say, "Did you see those vines?"

The little white deer raised its head, and the little wolf cub pointed to a few star chain fruit vines nearby and said, "I know them. These are star chain fruits, the same fragrant and sweet fruits we ate yesterday!"

"right."

A Yan nodded and explained, "These are what Su Su brought back from the cultivation garden. They were originally withered, but now their vines have not only turned green again, but have also grown leaves."

Hearing this, the little white deer's eyes lit up a little.

The little wolf cub pointed at the leaves emerging from the Star Chain Fruit vine and said to Little Zhengxing, "The leaves of the Star Chain Fruit are star-shaped. They're very beautiful!"

Little Zhengxing is "observing" the small sprouts on the ground.

His mental strength has recovered a little bit now, and since the distance is so close, it doesn't matter if he releases a little.

However, after experiencing complete darkness just now and having to use other senses to observe the world, he was no longer satisfied with the information obtained by his mental power. He wanted to reach out and touch, and feel this little seedling full of life.

However, he couldn't do that.

On the one hand, there was the advice from A Yan, and on the other hand, the information released by the seedlings told him that they were very fragile now, and a slight touch could cause huge harm to them.

So Xiao Zhengxing restrained his thoughts, hid his little hands in his pockets and dared not take them out.

Hearing what Xiao Langze said, he subconsciously raised his head and turned towards the fruit vine with star-shaped leaves he mentioned. However, it was a bit far from here, and he had only recovered a little mental strength and could not touch that place.

“I can’t see…”

His voice was very soft, but little Langze, who had been leaning against him, heard it and then remembered—yes! Little Xingxing’s eyes were blind!

Looking at the child's lifeless blue eyes, little Langze suddenly felt very uncomfortable, as if someone was pricking him with a needle, stinging and hurting.

He used to feel sorry for Number Three, but it wasn't this hard on him. But now...

Little Langze felt very sad when he thought that the little star had been living in a dark world and could not see so many beautiful and interesting things.

He imitated the way the keeper comforted him, reached out and placed his hand on the child's head, gently patted it, and said softly, "It's okay, I'm here with you. When I learn to play the flute, I will play the world for you to listen to."

Feeling the hand caressing his head, although he was still a little uncomfortable, Xiao Zhengxing no longer felt any resistance, and...

Langze said he wanted to play the flute for him...

He nodded his little head and responded with a crisp "OK" in a soft, baby voice.

Playing the flute is so difficult.

Little Zhengxing, who has realized how difficult it is to learn to play the flute, occasionally feels uneasy. If he cannot learn to play the flute for a long, long time, will he never see such a beautiful world again?

But now, Langze said he wanted to play the flute for him!

Among the three of them, little Langze has the fastest learning progress, and he will definitely be the one who learns to play the flute the fastest in the future!

Thinking of this, the corners of Xiao Zhengxing's mouth curled up slightly, and the expression between depression and numbness just now disappeared from his face.

Because, even if he couldn't learn to play the flute in the future, Langze would still play it for him! He didn't have to worry or be afraid anymore!

Feeling Xiao Zhengxing's joy, Xiao Langze breathed a sigh of relief and became more motivated to learn to play the flute.

At this time, A Yan spoke.

"Actually, you can touch it."

His clear and calm voice, like that of a steady and powerful older brother, made people trust him. Little Zhengxing couldn't help but turn to him, "Can... can I?"

"Yeah." A Yan operated the communicator, "The leaves of the Star Chain Fruit Vine have grown well. It won't hurt if I touch them lightly."

"Wow! Let's go over there!"

Little Zhengxing didn't react at all, but little Langze stood up and pulled him up, then took his little hand and walked towards where the star chain fruit vines were planted.

When planting, A Yan left enough space for people to walk around, so as long as you are careful, you won't step on the newly planted seedlings.

Faced with these tender little lives, even the little wolf cubs who like to rush around become cautious in their actions.

After a while, he brought Xiao Zhengxing to the Star Chain Fruit Vine.

These star chain fruit vines had already been blessed by Su Ci with the magical power of bringing dead trees back to life, and with the addition of spiritual water, they were also watered closest to the two small spiritual buds, so they were growing very well.

Even after experiencing extreme weather such as blood frost, the leaves that grew did not wither. They have grown from a small green tip to the size of a thumb.

In addition, new buds have sprouted, and it is estimated that they will grow into new leaves tomorrow.

Seeing this touch of fresh green amidst the gray and black is really eye-catching.

"This star leaf is so cute!"

Little Langze couldn't help but admire, then he took little Zhengxing's hand and led him to touch the largest leaf on the vine.

Xiao Zhengxing couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

He had already gathered his mental strength and focused all his attention on his fingers. However, when his fingertips actually touched the leaves of the Star Chain Fruit Vine, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

It was a very wonderful feeling.

The small leaves were slightly cool. When he touched them, he vaguely heard a childish laughter, full of vigor and vitality, which made people feel very happy.

Little Zhengxing couldn't help but retract his hand and turned to the wolf cub in confusion.

Was it Langze who was laughing just now?

"You don't want to touch it anymore?" asked Xiao Langze.

It doesn’t seem to be…

Little Zhengxing turned to the Star Chain Fruit Vine again, stretched out his finger and touched the small, star-like leaf. Unfortunately, this time, he did not hear the laughter again.

Next to the pool, Su Ci, who was delivering a new batch of spider meat to the cold storage, raised his head slightly and glanced in the direction of the Star Chain Fruit Vine.

After a while, he lazily withdrew his gaze, yawned slightly tiredly, and started to process the spider meat again, ready to finish it quickly and go back to sleep.

Little Langze and Little Zhengxing were playing with the leaves of the star chain fruit. Little Lujiao saw that it was too crowded over there and was worried that they would step on the seedlings, so he didn't follow them.

He lowered his head and began to count the seedlings, then he noticed something -

"Is there anything special about those two seedlings? Why are we all surrounding them?" Xiaolu Jiao noticed the two small spiritual buds and couldn't help asking curiously.

"This is a spoiled kid and a lazy bum." A Yan said.

Xiaolu Jiao blinked. Why are these two names so strange?

"Susu named them."

As A Yan spoke, he walked over with a bucket of water. "They can promote plant growth, but they also require a lot of fertilizer and water. They need to be watered several times a day."

Unlike the Star Chain Fruit Vine, the two small spirit buds were obviously not as energetic today after being frozen, and their demand for water and fertilizer was much higher than before.

The little white deer followed A Yan and nodded when he heard his words, silently keeping them in mind.

He knew that plants also need to eat, and fertilizer and water are their food. Without these, they will die soon.

"Do you have to feed them every day?" asked the little deer Jiao.

Hello? Ah Yan thought about it and felt that this was not wrong.

"Um."

He nodded. Now that Su Su had given him this task, he also enjoyed doing it.

Xiaolu Jiao showed a look full of envy.

He looked at the flying cup of water, slowly pouring the water in the cup on the little spirit bud. Seeing the leaves of the spirit bud turn emerald green, he finally couldn't help but ask, "Then... do you need help?"

"What?"

"That's right...I can help feed them!" Little Deer Jiao volunteered.

A Yan looked at him, thought for a moment and asked, "Can you hear their voices?"

Xiaolujiao shook his head blankly.

A Yan was lost in thought. It seemed that not everyone could hear the sounds of plants...

He continued, "I can hear their sounds, so I know how much fertilizer to give them and how much water to give them. If I give them too much fertilizer or water, they will get sick and die."

A Yan could see that the little white deer liked these seedlings very much, so he didn't mind telling him these precautions.

Xiaolu Jiao's eyes widened. "So that's how it is. You're so amazing!"

It turns out that Number One is so capable. No wonder Su Su likes him so much. Not only does she live with him, but she also gives him such an important job.

The little boy lowered his head in frustration. "I can't hear the plants, so I can't water or fertilize them..."

Seeing the little white deer's two ears drooping, a strange look slowly emerged in A Yan's dark red eyes. Actually...

Why not?

Although he likes to water and fertilize the plants, A Yan knows that there will definitely be more and more plants here. This can be seen from the large piece of land opened up by Su Su.

It took him quite a while just to dig the holes and plant those thirty or so seeds of ordinary plants in the ground. What if it became three hundred or three thousand seeds in the future?

A Yan was not worried about the seeds of the plants, because one star chain fruit could produce more than a dozen seeds. After the more than 30 seeds he planted blossomed and bore fruit, he would not have to worry about seeds at all.

So back to the question just now - does he have time to plant so many seeds?

The answer is, yes, but not many.

He also needs to learn divine texts and formations to make delicious food for Susu - when these plants grow up, he will have more abundant ingredients and can cook different dishes for Susu every day!

Besides, Susu likes eating meat so much that he would get tired of eating spider meat every day. When he becomes stronger, he will go to the red fog to catch other monsters to make the food more diverse.

These are very time-consuming!

So, if Xiaolu Jiao wants to do the planting, why can't we leave it to him?

A Yan tilted his head and thought about it, and found that this was completely feasible.

His gaze shifted slightly, falling on the two children not far away who were still looking at leaves in the Star Chain Fruit area.

The work of digging the soil and applying fertilizer is not so bad now that there are few plants, but when the planting area becomes larger in the future, it will be very tiring to complete the watering work every day. Just walking around such a large area will take a lot of physical strength, not to mention carrying water and fertilizer.

Therefore, in addition to Xiaolu Jiao, other cubs should also participate in this work. After all, A Yan can feel that Xiao Langze and Xiao Zhengxing also really like these plants.

Little Langze is needless to say. Even A Yan is envious of his strong physique, and little Zhengxing...

A Yan recalled the feeling the child had just given him.

His spiritual awareness was very strong, so perhaps he couldn't judge the amount of fertilizer each plant needed as accurately as he did, but he should be able to roughly -

Just like knowing how to use a food processor when he sees it, when arranging work for several children, A Yan knows which position they are suitable for without even thinking about it.

It was a strange intuition. He couldn't explain why, but he believed that his feeling should not be wrong.

Of course, it doesn’t matter if he is wrong, he has the opportunity to try and fail.

After making the decision, A Yan's eyes had changed when he looked at Xiao Lu Jiao, but he was not so anxious. He naturally knew that this matter had to be done step by step.

Well, let’s first decide on Xiao Lu Jiao who has the strongest desire, and then consider Xiao Langze and Xiao Zhengxing.

So he started operating the communicator.

In his clear, young voice, as calm and steady as ever, A Yan said to the deer Jiao, "If you really want to water and fertilize them, it's not impossible."

Xiaolu Jiao, who was originally disappointed, couldn't help but raise his little head and look at where he was with hope after hearing this.

"Really?" he said, "But I can't hear the plants..."

If something goes wrong, the seedling will die...

"We can first number the plants, and then I'll write down the amount of fertilizer and water they need every day and tell you. Then you can do it for them. That's it."

A Yan gave a solution.

In fact, Xiaolu Jiao can also control the dosage within a range, which will not cause much damage to the plants, but the effect may not be as good as his precise control plan.

There are still few plants at present, and they have just sprouted. A Yan thinks it is better to adopt the method of intensive cultivation. When there are more plants and they become stronger, there will be no need to use such precise dosage as now.

Xiaolu Jiao thought about it and also felt that Ayan's plan was feasible, but...

"Wouldn't this be too much trouble for you?"

The little boy looked a little uneasy. It was obvious that A Yan could have done it directly, but in order to accommodate him, he had to do one more step...

"It won't be a problem." A Yan said, "But if you really want to do it, you have to do it well. These seedlings are very important to Su Su. If anything happens to them, Su Su will be sad."

A Yan was telling the truth, so he didn't dare to give all the work to Xiao Lu Jiao at once. He would still come to observe every day, and only after he was sure that Xiao Lu Jiao was capable of doing the job would he give him more work.

Xiaolu Jiao nodded quickly, a sense of mission rising in her heart. "Don't worry, I will definitely complete it well and won't let Susu down!"

Seeing him so motivated, A Yan said with satisfaction: "Okay, then come here at seven o'clock tomorrow morning, and I will teach you how to water and fertilize the seedlings."

The little boy's eyes lit up, "Okay, okay, I'll be there on time!"

He didn't hesitate at all, because the breeder said that he could go anywhere in the brooding house during the day, and tomorrow morning at seven o'clock it would already be daytime!

The little white deer was very happy at the thought that he could come to see the seedlings tomorrow, water them and feed them. Smiling eyes and eyebrows showed the true innocence of a young cub.

Little Langze, not far away, raised a pair of furry ears.

He seemed to have heard something... The young boy ran over curiously and asked directly, "What were you talking about just now? What do you mean by coming on time?"

Xiaolu Jiao couldn't wait to share with him, "Brother Ayan said he would teach me how to water and fertilize the seedlings tomorrow!"

Brother Ayan...

Hearing this name, A Yan couldn't help but blink. He scratched the furry ears on his head, tilted his head and thought about it, and it seemed to be a good name.

He is older than them, so he is the older brother!

The little wolf cub was also startled when he heard this title. He didn't think that whoever was older could be the leader. After all, Number Four was younger than him, but his fists were bigger than his...

However, when I think about the fact that A Yan knows so many words, can become invisible, and can run so fast, and most importantly - he can also cook delicious food!

If A-Yan can make delicious food for him, then it seems that it is not impossible to recognize him as a brother?

Of course, he was soon distracted by Xiao Lujiao's subsequent words.

"What? Are you going to water and fertilize the seedlings tomorrow?" The little wolf cub immediately grasped the key point -

Yoyo can come out and play tomorrow too! Because Ayan wants to teach him how to water and fertilize the seedlings, he naturally has to leave the room and come here!

The little wolf cub, unaware that they were now free to leave the house, was immediately envious. He couldn't help but say anxiously, "I want one too! I want to water and fertilize the seedlings, too!"

Then, he used the same method on A Yan that he used on Su Ci.

The little wolf cub wagged its big tail and said softly to A Yan, "Brother A Yan, can you teach me too? I want to learn too..."

A Yan: “…”

In fact, he was still thinking about what conditions could attract the little wolf cub to help. After all, among the three children, the little wolf was the strongest and would definitely be able to help him a lot in the future.

Unexpectedly, the little wolf cub would be so proactive?

However, what he didn't expect was that Xiao Zhengxing, who was squatting in the distance and touching leaves, suddenly stood up and stumbled over to him.

The child wasn't as shameless as the wolf cub, but he also mustered up his courage and said with his soft, baby voice, "Ah... Brother Ayan... I... I too..."

As he spoke, his voice became smaller and smaller.

Finally, Xiao Zhengxing said, his face flushed red, "Is it okay?"
