Chapter 207 Xuxu Grass
[A small potted plant that can talk? It sounds interesting.]
Si Er immediately became interested and asked curiously, "Where are the small potted plants that can talk?"
"Look, aren't they all on the stalls here?" Ouyang Caicai pointed to the right half of the stall behind the willow tree and said, "These potted plants can all make sounds, but most of them are echo grass, Xuxu grass and hole trees."
"After all, there are relatively few plants that can talk."
Si Er looked in the direction of Ouyang Caicai's finger. He didn't pay any attention to these ordinary little potted plants just now.
It turns out that the ordinary ones are the most magical?
Si Er curiously picked up a pot of small green grass that looked like green onions, poked the grass and asked: "Hello, can you talk?"
"Yes, yes, yes..."
Si Er: -_-||...
〖It sounds like calling mom.〗
"What's your name?"
"Something, something, something..."
Si Er put the grass down: "Is this the echo grass?"
Ouyang Caicai smiled: "Yes, it's still small now, and can only echo the last word."
"As it grows up, it can echo more and more sounds, and sometimes it can repeat what people say completely."
Si Er puzzled: "So what's the use of this thing?"
Ouyang Caicai smiled: "Since it exists, it should be useful, right?"
Although he doesn't know what the use of this thing is now, anyway, his sister just likes to fiddle with these strange plants.
Si Er asked again: "How many people know about this thing?"
[If not many, it should be very useful to play tricks.]
Ouyang Caicai thought for a while and said: "People in the central city should know about it, and people in medium and high-level cities may also know about it, but people in more remote places may not know about it."
[Then it won't work if you want to play tricks. 〗
Guagua also curiously plucked the tip of the echo grass: "This seems to be a toy of wild alien beasts."
"Toys of wild alien beasts?" Si Er asked curiously, "Do alien beasts like to play with this?"
"Yeah." Guagua nodded his big head, "Some alien beasts are lone rangers. Although they think it's cool to be alone, they will also feel bored."
"Some lone alien beasts will secretly pull out a few echo grasses and take them home to raise, and then they┗|`o′|┛ 嗷~~"
"Echo grass will 嗷嗷嗷嗷..."
"Then they will feel very happy."
Si Er: "Ah, this..."
〖Is this happy? If I saw alien beasts and echo grass performing like this in front of me, I would feel very happy. 〗
〖But if I put myself in the shoes of that alien, I would feel that I am quite stupid...〗
〖The happiness of aliens is really simple.〗
Si Er picked up another small potted plant. The grass planted on it looked like a miniature version of dogtail grass. The "dogtail" on the top was particularly fluffy and looked very cute.
Si Er couldn't help but stretch out his hand to rub the "dogtail". It felt like soft cotton and was very nice to touch.
"Hehe, it's itchy..."
Si Er couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Can this thing really talk?"
Ouyang Caicai nodded: "It can talk a little, but not much, and it's long-winded."
"The 'xuxu' of xuxu grass is the 'xuxu' of chattering, and the fluffy things on it are also a kind of grass fluff."
"The grass fluff carries its seeds, and when it flies out, it looks like a dandelion being blown away."
"The picture looks beautiful, but it sounds scary."
Si Er was curious: "How scary?"
"It's just that the little seeds flying all over the sky are all laughing. People who don't know xuxu grass must think they have seen a ghost."
"Indeed." Si Er nodded in agreement.
〖The effect of laughing all over the sky is much more scary than an echo. This xuxu grass is really interesting. 〗
Si Er's brain hasn't reacted yet, and he has already held seven or eight pots of Xuxu grass in his hands, and he's just short of taking out his pocket to pay for the soul stones.
Yu Beixuan asked curiously, "Er Er, why are you buying so much?"
Si Er smiled and said, "I think this grass is cute. I'll buy some to decorate the yard."
〖Mainly, I really want to enjoy the scene of the sky full
of laughter. It is definitely a great wonder in my life.〗Yu Beixuan didn't quite understand why Si Er wanted to enjoy this scene. Isn't it noisy to have laughter all over the sky?
But he showed respect for this and paid for Si Er's soul stones.
Si Xu was too lazy to care about such trivial matters. They kept buying and buying along the way, and they paid casually. Whoever remembered to pay first would pay.
The two of them now use all kinds of things together, and naturally they also pay for them together, which seems to mean that they are indistinguishable from each other.
Si Xu could not help but grit his teeth, and took out his soul stone to buy a dozen pots of Xuxu grass.
Si Er asked with a smile: "Does the second brother like this grass too?"
Si Xu smiled: "I suddenly thought of grandpa. We grandchildren are all studying outside, and we can't be filial to him. He must be very lonely."
"So I bought him some potted plants that can talk and bring them back to keep him busy."
When the time comes, they will be full of laughter, which will definitely annoy him to death.
Si Xu had only seen Xuxu grass in some niche books before, and this was the first time he saw the real grass.
He, who often studies spiritual plants, was like this, and the old man must not know about it.
But it would be a bad idea to plant them in a conspicuous place, as the old man would pull them out as weeds.
Si Xu remembered that the old man's yard was full of colorful hydrangeas, and the seeds were taken from the warehouse when Si Lao San asked him for money.
But the old man didn't know this, or maybe he wouldn't care even if he knew.
Anyway, he was coaxed into being very happy, and gave Si Lao San a large sum of soul stones. He also listed hydrangeas as his favorite flowers, and then planted them all over the yard.
Therefore, when he was expelled from the City Lord's Mansion, the elders transplanted all the hydrangeas in that yard into Si Lao Ye Zi's new home for fear that he would refuse to leave.
Although the house they allocated to the old man was not big, the yard was big enough to plant all the hydrangeas. It was just that it would be difficult to walk through the yard, and there was basically no place to stay.
But the elders thought it was not a big problem. They hoped that Si Lao Zi would stay in the yard and retire honestly, and never come out for the rest of his life.
But Grandpa Si had to squeeze out the flowers with great difficulty, and ran out every few days to find his other two sons to change their minds.
Si Xu no longer thought about the annoying old man, he planned to find someone to secretly plant catkins in the hydrangea bush.
Those hydrangeas were moved from the big yard to the small yard, all crowded together. Even if something else was planted underneath, the old man would not be able to find them for a while.
When the season comes, the seeds of catkins will be blown away by the wind, and the sky will be full of laughter,
which will definitely scare the other party! Si Xu thought, since grandpa always says that he is unfilial, he can't bear this title in vain, right?
