"Mianmian?" Chen Qian walked forward and called out.
Damn it, would her snow wolf be mad and run away?
Bai Chimian pulled a smile from the corner of his mouth, then pointed at Jiang Lingrui and explained, "Neither of us has eaten yet."
Chen Qian, who had been able to argue just now, finally felt guilty now. She tried to make amends, "You continue to rest, I'll go cook for you!"
Her family loves to eat the "delicious food" she makes~
Bai Chimian politely declined, "...You should take a break."
After saying this, he disappeared from the kitchen door gracefully and swiftly, not giving the contract owner any chance to refuse.
Chen Qian could vaguely see someone fleeing in panic from his back.
It must be an illusion.
The other party must be starving!
Then let her cook for Bai Chimian next time!
Chen Qian looked back at Jiang Lingrui, who was already drinking tea, and said, "A Ling~"
Will the nanny be mean to her?
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
Jiang Lingrui did not feel anxious at all after waiting for a long time, and he was very relaxed.
It seems that he won't scold her anymore.
Chen Qian immediately took Huo Xiao to sit across from him and said, "We didn't go anywhere crazy, we just played for a while~"
Seeing them like this, Jiang Lingrui couldn't help but chuckle, "I know."
He seemed to have thought of something and added, "We don't want to control you, we're just a little worried."
I don't know why, but they both came back early today, and inexplicably couldn't help but nag a few more times in the morning.
But then he thought that Wei Jingzhe had just left yesterday, and Jiang Lingrui thought that he did this because he was afraid that his contracted master would be sad.
Chen Qian didn't feel that he was being strictly controlled.
"It's okay."
She reached out to take the tea that Jiang Lingrui handed her and drank it in one gulp. "You are my match, you can control me however you want."
What's more, her two precious children are worried about themselves~
She enjoys it!
...
After they finished their meal, Chen Qian mentioned the news she had learned from Phyllis. "Phyllis said that although this ancestral tree was the birthplace of their tribe, it itself has no intelligence. It only gained some spirituality because it has survived for so long."
"The reason why the ancestral tree dies is to give birth to the next generation."
This is the instinct of all living things and has nothing to do with intelligence.
Also, its death is somewhat similar to the principle that when a whale dies, all things come to life. This is why the planet Zhiya can grow so many plants.
"However, after the first generation of mother trees emerged, they also developed another method of reproduction called 'dropping branches'. For example, Mosang and Dali were born by dropping branches."
"Although they look like plants that can grow on sticks on Earth, they are fundamentally different."
"For example, although they are all residents of Zhiya Planet, these Zhiya people, who were born from fallen branches, value their mother tree more than their own planet."
"This is a bit like the pact we made. If the mother tree dies, its children will die with it. The mother tree's health also affects the level of their innate abilities and the length of their lifespan."
Hearing this, Bai Chimian's face darkened. "You gave the wrong example. It should be something like that ugly thing Alan you brought back earlier."
Mother and son?
hehe.
His indenture master is really great.
"Yes, yes, it's Alan and the others!"
Chen Qian asked why he felt that the person looked familiar. Wasn’t he the same as Alan and the others?
When the mother dies, the son dies; when the mother is weak, the son becomes weak.
The influence between them is even stronger than that between the contractors.
She praised sincerely, "You have a good brain."
Bai Chimian changed his sitting position, looking as if he was choked by the words of his master.
"Then the power of rules you discovered in the forest, Qianqian, should be related to the racial talents of these Zhiya people, right?"
Jiang Lingrui's brain worked very fast and he guessed the key point quickly.
Chen Qian looked at Jiang Lingrui in surprise, "You can even guess this? I haven't even mentioned this yet."
“I can probably think of some things. According to Phyllis, there’s nothing wrong with this ancestral tree. That should be the reason for this first-generation mother tree.
I've learned about their racial talents before. For example, Dali and the others can only ask for each other's names and then conclude a short-term contract."
This type of low-end contract can force the other party to do something. Although it has many restrictions and can be easily broken free by the other party, it can be very effective if used occasionally.
"The Mother Tree's racial talents are more complete than those of ordinary Branch Asians, and the effectiveness of the contracts they form will be even stronger. They can even manipulate the other party to their own death."
Jiang Lingrui frowned slightly when he said this.
"I don't think such a contract can generate the energy to allow Han Zi to recover. The power of those rules should only be related to the other party's racial talent, but it is definitely not the main reason."
Chen Qian was already numb at this moment.
I didn't expect that her son A Ling could find the key point with just this little information.
"You guessed right. These eight mother trees are the ones who currently hold power on the planet Zhiya. The truth of history is entirely up to them, so I only half-believe Phyllis's words."
Chen Qian believed half of what Phyllis said because he had a face-to-face conversation with her, and he found out the other half by exchanging conditions for other things. However, Chen Qian didn't dare to tell his match so openly.
She changed her story, "It only told the truth after I threatened Phyllis again."
"In fact, that ancestral tree was intelligent. Before it died, the first generation of mother trees had already been born. It took advantage of the ancestral tree's trust and, after signing a contract with it, it controlled it, leading it step by step towards death."
The planet Zhiya may be very big, but it is not very big compared to the ancestral tree.
If the mother tree wants to survive and wants to survive with its own people, then it is inevitable that it will compete with the ancestral tree for resources on the branch planet.
The claims that it grew from the roots of the ancestral tree and that it was in the same place as the trunk of the ancestral tree were all excuses to deceive the outside world.
How could such a powerful racial talent not be hidden? Only the low-end version is suitable to be shown to the alliance.
There may be some blood relationship between the ancestral tree and the mother tree, but if you look closely, they are definitely not the same species.
"After the ancestral tree died, those fluorescent balls began to appear on this planet. Most of them emerged from the remaining roots of the ancestral tree. They are bright day and night, but they will dissipate after a while, and then new ones will emerge, day after day."
Chen Qian pursed his lips, feeling somewhat embarrassed. "This is all I have learned. Only Han Zi can discover the power of those rules, and the ancestral tree is already dead. It is too difficult to figure out the relationship between them now."
