The successful cultivation of mushrooms became a turning point in Lin Chong's journey to another world.

From that day on, Lin Chong finally lived his ideal retirement life, reading books, watching movies, watching TV series, and playing games every day, especially online games. In less than half a month, he had reached the maximum level of the "World of Warcraft" nostalgic server that he had never had time to play before.

Of course, he did not forget to increase the mushroom production. After digging out nearly thirty pieces of "white wood" from the snow in Kunlun Mountain, Lin Chong planned to turn the single bed in the workshop and the entire balcony into a mushroom cultivation house.

First, in the living room, I used a hand saw to cut the white wood into small pieces.

It's quite pleasant to watch a movie while sawing wood.

This work lasted about two days.

The creaking sound of sawing wood would normally have attracted complaints from the neighbors, but now no one paid any attention to Lin Chong.

Lin Chong couldn't help but miss the old lady from Shanghai who always came downstairs to complain that Lin Chong watched movies too loudly.

On the third day, Lin Chong emptied the single beds in the workshop and filled one of the bed compartments with white wood and the scraps that fell on the ground when sawing wood - these scraps were also precious.

Lin Chong did not believe that the white wood on the top of Mount Kunlun in the other world was endless. A lot of them would be blown away by the storm, or blown over by the storm. In short, most of them were buried in the snow. Lin Chong could not go out, so the number he could get was definitely not much.

The bed compartment is filled with white wood and sawdust, as if it were filled with white jade, then sprinkled with water, starch, and mushroom seeds, and covered with a bed sheet to completely block out light. This is done according to the bathtub cultivation method in the bathroom.

The single bed had two compartments, and the other one was taken to the balcony by Lin Chong.

It was also filled with white wood and sawdust, but this time it was uncovered. He wanted to see if mushrooms could grow in full sunlight.

On the first day, before going to bed, Lin Chong discovered that mushrooms had grown on the balcony.

“This growth rate is amazing.”

Lin Chong was wearing pajamas, holding a notebook and a tape measure, recording the number and size of mushrooms on the balcony.

"Twelve. The plant height is between one centimeter and three centimeters, and the circumference is about one centimeter."

It looks like sparse bean sprouts growing in a large flowerpot.

The next morning, Lin Chong took a toothbrush and observed the mushrooms on the balcony while brushing his teeth.

I saw that the number of mushrooms in the bed box had increased to dozens, and the largest one was as big as a baby's fist.

"This is a monster mushroom that grows in the wind."

Lin Chong was amazed.

Record:

On the second day, there were seventy-eight mushroom plants, the tallest being five centimeters tall and the circumference being five centimeters.

On the third day, there were 113 mushrooms, the tallest being seven centimeters and the circumference reaching eight centimeters.

On the fourth day, there were 150 beads, the tallest was 15 centimeters, and the circumference reached 16 centimeters.

…

On the seventh day, there were fifty-six mushrooms, the tallest was seventy-eight centimeters, and the circumference reached fifty-six centimeters.

"The number has actually decreased... Were these dozens swallowed?"

Lin Chong was surprised to find that after the mushrooms grew to a certain number, the big mushrooms actually began to devour the small mushrooms and turned them into part of themselves. Now the bed box was like a small jungle, and it was a forest where the dark law of survival of the fittest was being played out.

I fucking think this is kind of scary.

Lin Chong's balcony has turned into a giant mushroom house. The half-human-high mushrooms grow at a terrifying rate every day. Lin Chong has not even watered them. They are just absorbing the sunlight from another world - the balcony is connected to the real world.

"This thing isn't going to come alive, is it? It's not going to grow so big it's going to break through the ceiling, is it?"

A little scary.

Lin Chong poked one of the mushrooms. It still felt like a mushroom, but it was incredibly big. He tried to pinch one of them and applied a little force. With a crisp sound, the mushroom was twisted off.

There was no weird phenomenon like mushrooms screaming in pain.

Lin Chong breathed a sigh of relief.

Now he was holding a huge mushroom that was half a person's height and thicker than his arm, wondering how to eat it?

I went to the kitchen and tried to cut it with a kitchen knife, but the knife just wouldn't work.

“This is just like cutting cowhide!”

Lin Chong couldn't help but become suspicious. It clearly broke when he bent it just now, so why is it so hard now?

I broke off another one, and it broke again. Then the knife still couldn't cut into it. It seems that I can only pick it as a whole and can't cut it into pieces?

Or does it become hard after leaving the roots?

I did another experiment. I used a kitchen knife to cut the mushrooms that were still growing on the tree. Sure enough, I could easily cut off a piece. However, the piece I cut off became particularly solid and could not be cut by the kitchen knife.

It really is the magical property of becoming hard as soon as it leaves the root.

As for whether it really can’t be cut?

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"I still don't believe this."

Lin Chong took out an angle grinder from the toolbox - the angle grinder is used to grind the surface of the chip, using a grinding wheel and sandpaper, with a rotation speed of over 12,000, there is no reason why it cannot cut a mushroom.

Sure enough, buzz buzz!

The angle grinder was turned on, and the surface and inner layers of the mushroom were broken one by one. Lin Chong found that this mushroom was very strange, and its hardness and toughness were really like cowhide.

Lin Chong took a piece of cut mushroom, tried to take a bite, but couldn't bite it. He looked at the mushroom again and found there was not even a tooth mark on it. This thing must taste like a belt!

fail.

The mushrooms grown on the balcony are obviously not suitable for eating.

Although the balcony mushrooms are not suitable for eating, Lin Chong did not remove them completely. After all, being hard has its advantages and may be useful in the future.

"But if you grow too tall, we will have to pull you out and wipe out your clan," Lin Chong said to the mushrooms on the balcony.

Mushrooms are mushrooms and they cannot occupy human living space.

Lin Chong allocated half of the balcony to them, and if one of them was too tall or too strong, Lin Chong would cut it down.

After another half a month, the mushrooms on the balcony completed their growth process. All the mushrooms were absorbed by one plant and now formed into a huge umbrella-shaped mushroom tree.

It is 1.68 meters tall, the circumference of the mushroom cap is 1.8 meters, and the circumference of the root is 80 centimeters.

Like a tree, various mushroom branches grow around it, but none of them exceed the space where it should exist.

It is slightly shorter than Lin Chong and two centimeters shorter than the diameter of the bed box where it is planted.

Then it doesn’t grow any longer.

Lin Chong thought that the dog must have understood, or had adapted to his trimming during the process of evolution. Just like humans raising pet dogs, dogs evolved according to human preferences.

"Your performance is good, but you must always be aware of your status. You can neither be eaten nor used. Your main function now is to be viewed, so you must work hard to look better."

Lin Chong said to the mushrooms on the balcony.

The balcony mushrooms were silent.

During the time that Lin Chong was taming the mushrooms on the balcony, the No. 1 mushrooms cultivated in the bed box in the workshop had already been mass-produced. They tasted exactly the same as those grown in the bathtub and were growing well.

On average, Lin Chong picked twenty mushrooms every day, and a corresponding number of mushrooms would grow the next day, creating a satisfying planting cycle.

The construction of these two mushroom producing areas fundamentally solved Lin Chong's problem of food and clothing.

Now that the problem of food has been solved, Lin Chong turns his attention back to the biggest obstacle in his dominance of the three realms, the little red snake.
