The rhizome only grows downward, while the secondary roots grow sideways. The root network is not generated by branches of the main root, but consists of roots that grow from the base of the stem and branch out in large numbers.
There was indeed an abnormality.
However, this abnormality is not obvious from the outside, except that it is a little dense, and the roots are just beginning to branch out rapidly.
Is it the effect of rain?
I don’t know whether it is good or bad.
Wei Xiyin squatted down and thought for a moment, then simply started digging with Luoxue, carefully digging up the soil to reveal the entire stem.
Xie Ruian didn't know what the girl wanted to do, so he quickly squatted down and wanted to help.
"Don't touch it with your hands." Wei Xiyin stopped her. "Don't touch anything outside if you are not sure, understand?"
She spoke in a very gentle manner.
"I understand. Thank you for your advice, Miss." Xie Ruian quickly agreed. She was a little puzzled. "Does the girl think there's something wrong with the plants?"
Wei Xiyin continued to move her hands and replied, "Well, it seems that the plants are not aggressive at the moment, they are just growing faster. But we still need to observe carefully."
Slowly, as she dug, all the roots underneath were exposed.
The rhizome grows from the end, and the root tip is protected by a needle-shaped root crown. Behind the root crown is the apical meristem, which has groups of small, actively dividing branches.
It looks like a tentacle monster.
Wei Xiyin poked open the roots with her sword, and juice oozed out. It was milky white in color and had a faint plant fragrance.
"It looks quite normal, but I don't know if it's edible." Wei Xiyin wondered whether she should get an animal to experiment on.
She herself did not have the physique to attract animals, so she could only use the livestock raised in the dock for experiments, and among the livestock, only piglets were more suitable for research observation.
I just hope my cousins don’t get mad when they come back.
