Chapter 29 Chapter 29 She wants to take back Lesong and make braised food at noon...
After hearing what Gu Yu said, He Yang also felt that this suggestion was very feasible.
If other people could see that there were natural plants in the wild in the Xisha area, it would not only attract tourists but also investors. At that time, it would be much easier for her to ask the federal government for more funds.
Moreover, they had never imagined that the Xisha area could also develop tourism.
As Gu Yu said, with so many plants planted indoors, even if you just put one outside, it will immediately attract a lot of people.
But to achieve this goal, one core condition must be met: the plant must be able to grow and survive successfully in the wild.
Even if they can carry out comprehensive post-maintenance, it must be meaningful for everyone to witness the natural growth process of plants in the wild.
It's just too difficult to achieve this.
But if you put a plant from the laboratory outside and it can't stand the outside environment and dies immediately, the gain will outweigh the loss.
Hou Sen was also thinking about this problem. Although he had promised Ye Ning, after asking the researchers to collect outdoor data, he was still not optimistic about this matter.
First, under the influence of the extreme environment, no plants can adapt to the climate of the Xisha area; second, the pollution concentration here is extremely high, which will greatly hinder the normal growth of plants.
Hou Sen thought about it over and over again, but still felt that it was too impossible to grow plants in the wild.
Although Ye Ning is very talented and can make plants grow in large quantities, that is all in a laboratory environment.
But taking a step back, they still didn't know how the seeds she'd grown would perform in the wild. It would be a good opportunity to study them.
However, resources are currently limited, and it would be more costly to spend a lot of resources to maintain a plant in the wild.
But on the other hand, if plants can be successfully cultivated even in a place with a harsh environment like the Xisha District, then wouldn’t other areas have more hope?
If they can really achieve this goal, it will definitely cause a huge sensation in society and excite everyone.
The reason why the rebel forces have grown so rapidly in recent years is closely related to the people's despair about the future of Sea Dust Star.
He had previously worried about the worsening pollution. Their research had always focused on how to efficiently utilize plants to purify pollutants. However, precisely because there were so few plants, they needed to pursue such intensive research.
As long as we can grow as many plants as possible, we can solve all the current difficulties!
After Hou Sen explained the difficulties and problems to Ye Ning, Ye Ning immediately nodded and said, "I won't affect the cultivation in the laboratory."
Ye Ning knew the importance of this. With such a shortage of plants, a grow room was the only place where they could be most efficiently grown and harvested. These plants could save lives, so the grow room was definitely the priority.
But she feels that planting outdoors must also be put on the agenda.
Pollutants are becoming stronger and pollutant waves are becoming more frequent. The most direct related factor is that the pollution concentration in the Xisha area is getting higher and higher.
Little Mushroom said that the seeds in the mall can absorb pollutants very well. Even if they are eaten by pollutants, they can still absorb the pollution in their bodies.
Gu Yu also told her that the lower the level of pollutants, the less pollutants there are in the body.
Therefore, only by growing a variety of plants that absorb pollution can we fundamentally curb pollutants.
Ye Ning looked at Hou Sen and said, "You said before that newly produced seeds would be more adapted to the current environment. So I thought, if I can let plants produce seeds in the wild, perhaps those seeds will also be better adapted to the current environment and have stronger vitality."
"If the first generation fails, we can continue to cultivate the second and third generations. As long as we keep persisting, we will definitely be able to cultivate plants that can adapt to the current environment."
The plants in the mall can absorb pollution. The more plants there are, the less pollution there will be, and the environment will naturally become more suitable for plant growth.
It will definitely be difficult in the early stages, but everything is difficult at the beginning. You always have to try it first to find out where the problem lies and how to improve it.
“I can grow it in a very small open field.”
"It doesn't require a lot of resources. I have the Green Singing Stones to help me. Besides, the Empire sent a lot of Green Singing Stones here. I just want to try and see if I can grow plants in a natural environment. I can just ask a researcher to help me."
Hou Sen nodded, sighed, and informed the researchers below of the news.
When people first heard about going outside to plant plants, their first reaction was that it was impossible and impossible. This was almost a subconscious reaction etched in their bones.
Everyone has their own research going on. If they put it aside and do something that seems hopeless and impossible...
A researcher's research career is also very valuable. The researchers looked at each other, and no one stood up.
Someone even whispered, "Professor Hou, in the wild, even if she relied entirely on her innate ability to grow it, it would not be able to survive naturally."
"Yes, yes. Our research will soon produce new results. If we distract ourselves with other things now, it will definitely delay the progress at hand."
"We know Lord Ye Ning is very capable, but growing plants in the wild is really..."
Hou Sen had long anticipated this kind of reaction from the crowd.
He didn't have the patience to persuade her, so he asked directly, "What if she really grows it?"
Everyone was silent for a moment.
If it can be grown, then it must be...
Hou Sen sneered, "If you're all unwilling, then I'll transfer someone else. Don't waste time on me."
In the corner, a short-haired girl wearing glasses raised her hand awkwardly, "I want to go."
Everyone's attention suddenly turned to her.
She had regular features, clear and sincere eyes, and wore the same standard lab coat as the researchers around her, but there was an unnatural feeling in her every move.
Hou Sen thought for a moment before remembering her name, Bai Qing.
He was not impressed by her because she was not his student but was specially recommended to him by another professor.
She is not only honest and hardworking, but also has outstanding abilities.
Once this group of researchers came here, it would be impossible for them to return to Gaojiang District or contact anyone outside, at least before Ye Ning was announced.
When you think about it this way, her personality and abilities are perfectly suitable.
Hou Sen made the final decision and decided on her.
*
Le Song came here excitedly early this morning, carrying a large bag of things on his back.
He didn't expect that so many days would have passed in the blink of an eye, even though he thought they would meet in 36 hours.
When he reached the door, he was still nervous for a long time, and even looked at himself in the mirror secretly for a while. After confirming that his smile was exactly the same as before, he knocked on Ye Ning's door again.
As soon as he entered the door, he couldn't help but smell the scent in the air.
It was still Ye Ning's unique scent, but this time, it was clearly mixed with the fresh scent of other plants. It seemed like the mint scent Ye Ning had given him, along with some other plants he couldn't identify! Just taking a few deep breaths here immediately made him feel much more relaxed.
He knew there was a large growing room here, but he wasn't actually in one yet, yet he could still smell such a rich plant scent. Living here every day would be such a blessing.
I guess he will be almost fully recovered after staying here for a day.
When he saw Ye Ning again, Le Song's face, which had been deliberately bright, suddenly became even brighter uncontrollably.
It's been a while since we last saw each other, but the little cub seems to have grown a little. It seems everyone is taking good care of her!
Ye Ning was also a little surprised to see him. She ran over and looked him up and down, "Are you healed?"
The last time we spoke, he looked seriously injured, but now it's completely invisible. Orcs' recovery abilities are truly remarkable.
A purely human being would never recover from such a severe injury so quickly. Even someone like her, whose physical fitness far surpassed that of an average person and even possessed some healing properties, would hardly recover even half as quickly as he did.
But the bright smile on Le Song's face froze for a second. He hesitated for a moment, then said honestly, "I'm still a little way off recovering."
"But don't worry. Even if I haven't fully recovered, I can still protect you." He became more and more guilty as he spoke, and his tone became less firm. After a while, he said, "I'm afraid if I haven't appeared for too long, you will forget me..."
"Long Qi is nearby, Hou Lin is here too, and everyone else is busy, so I came first today."
He originally wanted to become stronger, but he still didn't make a breakthrough this time. However, he already had a vague feeling of a breakthrough, and he was just a little bit away from becoming S-level!
Le Song squatted in front of her, feeling a little ashamed of his little thoughts.
The puppy's eyes looked wet and pitiful. Ye Ning thought of the big dog in her dream again.
"You should get some rest first."
"I've rested enough. I've rested for a long time!" Le Song looked at Ye Ning eagerly. After a moment of hesitation, he moved his head closer to her. He lowered his head, his eyes focused on Ye Ning's feet. He said with a bit of embarrassment and anticipation, "I washed them before I came."
Did he want her to touch his head?
Ye Ning was thinking about it, and her hand had already touched it involuntarily.
The snow-colored hair seemed to become softer. After Ye Ning touched it, she couldn't help but smooth it down.
If she were in front of a large dog, she would probably use a brush to comb its fur. Orcs seem to enjoy petting or combing their fur.
Even Feng Qi liked to let her use that rough nylon brush to scrub her skin after turning back into her beast form.
She didn't use much strength, and the touch was hardly noticeable, but Le Song's heart finally settled down, and a long-lost feeling of comfort and relaxation swept over his whole body.
A bright smile appeared involuntarily on the corners of his mouth. He knew that even though they hadn't seen each other for a long time, the little cub still liked him very much!
Le Song happily let Ye Ning touch his head, and only stood up after Ye Ning put down her hand.
He couldn't wait to show Ye Ning the package he brought, "I brought you a lot of delicious food!"
As he spoke, Le Song took out things from the bag one by one.
"I've been searching for a lot of purely human recipes lately, and I've even learned how to make fresh food."
"I'm going to make braised pork for you!" he said, and prepared to put on his apron.
Ye Ning looked at the piece of meat he had taken out, which was still bleeding, and quickly ran over to stop him from putting on the apron. "No, no, I have to go exercise later. I can't eat too much in the morning. Let's eat at noon."
She didn't expect that Le Song would make such a heavy-tasting food for her so early in the morning.
Le Song thought for a moment, "Exercise with Hou Lin?"
Ye Ning nodded.
Le Song then stopped what he was doing and said, "You can't eat too much. I'll make you an omelet then!"
He fried an egg, carefully wiped off the grease around it, drew a simple picture of a puppy on it with seasonings, and then handed it to Ye Ning with satisfaction.
Ye Ning took a bite and the yolk immediately flowed out. It was a little undercooked and had a strong eggy smell. Although everyone would cook for her, Shao Yu was the best cook.
Ye Ning silently and quickly finished eating the fried eggs under Le Song's happy gaze.
She decided that she would take back Lesong's right to make braised pork at noon.
Le Song followed Ye Ning all the way, happily sharing with her what he had seen and heard recently.
From the thrilling mission a while ago to the happy family event of my sister giving birth to twins yesterday.
He gestured as he spoke, "A newborn baby is only this big, and its eyes haven't opened yet. In its animal form, even the pads of its paws are pink. When I get close, it wags its tail wildly at me."
Ye Ning could imagine how cute it was just by listening to his description.
Ye Ning was moved by what he said, "Newborn puppies must be super cute."
Le Song nodded happily. "The cubs of any animal are cute."
As he spoke, he suddenly whispered, "I also saved some of the mint water you gave me for my sister. She just gave birth, and I want her to recover quickly."
Ye Ning nodded and whispered, "Then I'll give you a few more watermelon leaves later."
Her watermelons have grown a lot of leaves, so giving Lesong a few leaves will not affect the watermelon production.
But Ye Ning's generosity made Le Song feel embarrassed. A conflicted look appeared on his face. "I'm not asking you for plants."
He just couldn't help but share it when he said this.
Ye Ning nodded and smiled: "I know, I want to give the baby a gift. I have a lot of watermelon leaves."
"You can crush the leaves and soak them in water, then filter out the leaves and give it to them to drink. That way you won't be able to tell there's a plant in it."
But Le Song still shook his head and said, "There are still many injured soldiers in the Xisha area who need treatment. My sister drank the mint water and is feeling much better now."
Those are his teammates who fought alongside him. Everyone needs to recover as soon as possible so that they can better fight against pollutants.
"When I was in the hospital, no one knew that there were plants in the water and equipment. They all said the water tasted good, and then they all said that for some reason their bodies recovered faster." Le Song said happily again.
They had never enjoyed such treatment before. During the last wave of pollutants, several officers were seriously injured and stayed in the hospital for several months without recovery. But recently they have gradually recovered and even been discharged from the hospital.
They all thought it was the result of the new equipment in Gaojiang District, and no one thought that it might be because a highly talented plant therapist appeared in Xisha District.
So he was very happy every time he saw everyone discussing.
There is a sense of happiness of "exclusive secret" that only he knows the truth.
If everyone knew that the plant was grown by Ye Ning... then everyone's reaction would definitely be amazing!
While they were talking, they walked to the exercise room.
Hou Lin was already waiting inside. He had emptied the place today, leaving only the lob rod. He had no impression of Le Song. He looked at him carefully for a few times, confirmed his identity and abilities, and then looked away.
Le Song had a strong impression of him, despite their rather unpleasant first meeting. He still remembered the scene of his head being stuck in a cactus and being mocked by them.
However, Hou Lin's attitude at this time was completely different from what he saw that night. He was a completely normal person.
Hou Lin helped Ye Ning stretch and warm up, then took the lob pole in his hand.
"Yesterday I only lasted three minutes, let's see if I can last ten minutes today. I'll slow down, and you just try to avoid it."
Ye Ning nodded. She felt that although this training looked simple, there were many things that could be trained.
Reaction, agility, endurance.
When she was lying in bed in the middle of the night last night, she even thought about the trajectory of the ball, because Hou Lin's control was so precise and perfect.
He seemed to be holding the pole casually, but he could precisely control the path, angle, and frequency of each ball. In comparison, it was really easy for her to just dodge the ball.
After the simple and efficient ten-minute training session, Hou Lin clapped his hands again. "Not bad, not bad! Your reaction speed today is 0.01 seconds faster than yesterday!"
For a moment, Ye Ning was not sure whether she had really made progress or he was encouraging her.
Le Song, who was standing by, watched with great interest.
He was no stranger to the lob poles, as this was a favorite game of many young cubs. Some orcs who were born with a talent for speed would split into several camps and place seven or eight lob poles for a large-scale melee, making it even more difficult to dodge.
The speed of the stick controlled by Hou Lin was really slow, and the force of the ball hitting him was also very small, which required very strong control.
I don't know who is better, him or the captain.
Le Song was a little skeptical about Hou Lin at first, but after half an hour of observation, his feelings towards Hou Lin increased dramatically. So when he looked at Hou Lin's expression, he also became sincere.
Hou Lin looked at him in surprise and felt that he was more comfortable than Mu Yan.
After Ye Ning finished, Le Song hurried over with his handkerchief.
He squatted in front of Ye Ning, carefully wiping her sweat, and gave her some tips, "You can listen carefully to the sound of the wind. When the ball hits you, there will be a slight wind sound, which is quite obvious."
Ye Ning nodded and wanted to wipe the sweat off her face, but Le Song held the handkerchief tightly and was reluctant to let go.
She pulled it twice, but couldn't say anything, so she gave up.
She could also hear the sound of the wind, but even if she knew the direction and speed of the ball, she would still be hit because she didn't have enough physical strength.
If she could use her special abilities, her strength and speed would be even better. However, this simple training would actually help her improve her physical strength.
Hou Lin also told her some precautions and arranged some other training plans based on her problems.
Le Song thought about it and realized there was a small detail he hadn't noticed. This was completely wrong, so before leaving, Le Song sincerely praised Hou Lin, "You are worthy of being an S-level orc in Gaojiang District. You are really professional."
Hou Lin felt relieved instantly. He had already said that he was the most powerful S-class orc here, but Professor Hou still looked disgusted! Look, there are still people who know what they are talking about.
Although he was very happy in his heart, he didn't show it on his face. He just glanced up and down at Le Song and asked, "Are you trying to get to S-rank recently?"
Le Song nodded, "But this time I was seriously injured and failed."
"You were seriously injured because your skills were flawed, and you failed because you simply haven't reached the limit of your ability." Hou Lin said arrogantly, then turned around and looked at Ye Ning with a good attitude, "Professor Hou said he has arranged someone, you can go find him now."
Le Song recalled thoughtfully.
Ye Ning's breathing had almost stabilized. She nodded, changed her clothes, and took Le Song to find Hou Sen.
Hou Sen was looking at her small vegetable garden at this time.
Her small vegetable garden is growing more vigorously than the surrounding plants, and the watermelons change every day. Yesterday they looked only the size of a fingernail, but today they look as big as a baseball.
Look, it will be ready to eat in a few days.
"Teacher!" Ye Ning ran to him in high spirits.
Hou Sen supported her and gestured to the researcher behind him, saying, "This is the researcher assigned specially for you."
Ye Ning looked at her and greeted her happily: "Good morning, Baiqing!"
When Bai Qing heard Ye Ning actually calling out her name, she felt a little embarrassed but also a little excited.
She was used to being an invisible person, and people often couldn't remember her name before. After she came here, she only met Ye Ning on the first day and never said a word to her after that. Unexpectedly, Ye Ning actually remembered her.
She held the information in her hand and handed it to Ye Ning. "This is what I found. It is very difficult to grow plants in a natural environment. Although the historical materials are very detailed, it has been more than a hundred years since then. The environment, climate, and even the plants themselves have changed a lot. Moreover, the plant was discovered in the capital area, where the pollution concentration is only..."
She spoke a lot of professional data in one breath, and only after she finished speaking did she realize that she seemed to have made it too complicated.
Bai Qing pushed up his glasses. "In short, based on our inferences from past and current data, the probability of successfully cultivating plants in the natural environment of the Xisha Islands is zero."
Le Song followed behind Ye Ning and was almost dizzy from what he heard.
Ye Ning's brain was also confused for a second.
She held Bai Qing's hand at the right moment and said, "Then we won't look at the information or refer to previous experience."
“If experience is not useful, it will become an obstacle and a burden.”
"Let's start with us and create and accumulate new experiences."
