Chapter 110 Biology Class (Part 2)
“Aaaaaaaaaa——”
A rope was hanging from the window, and then a dark shadow flew down, pulling the rope, and landed steadily on the ground with a thud.
Ding Pingsu loosened the rope and waved his right hand gracefully: "Good morning, everyone! Today is another happy day of survival!"
Live happily?
Chen Xiao'er's face fell: I can't be happy, Professor Ding, my biology teacher has to be you.
I thought it would be Professor Miroku...
Professor Ding seemed not to notice her sad expression. He hummed an unknown tune and walked happily to the center of the crowd, facing his classmates.
"Okay, your Professor Miroku has something urgent to do, so I'll take over for a few minutes. Don't be too touched."
Phew! Great! It sounds like Professor Milo will be here soon?
A smile appeared on Chen Xiao'er's face, and her eyes drifted towards the ceiling.
The dome of the botanical garden is very high, and the tallest trees can grow up to twenty meters. Looking up from below, it gives the illusion that it is supporting the sky.
"Chirp." Colorful balls of sparrows and motley birds rolled around among the high and low branches.
So cute... Chen Xiao'er's vision was blurred, and suddenly she heard the sound of digging soil next to her. She quickly lowered her head and pretended to fix her hair.
It turned out that Professor Ding took out a shovel from behind him, swung it hard at the soil next to him, and scooped up a piece of moist slime mold.
He scooped up the slime mold with a shovel and showed it to everyone.
"Everyone, please be careful! This form of fungus is extremely poisonous. Don't eat it, even if you're starving. Eating it might turn you into a zombie, and you won't be able to die. Aww, aww."
He put his fingers next to his ears and imitated the roar of a zombie. Chen Xiao'er laughed and said: Professor, don't worry, no one will eat it.
However, this kind of blue-green slime mold with warning colors seems to be very common.
She used to often find it when she followed a charity team to the suburbs to pick wild vegetables.
She was young at the time, and her uncles and aunts asked her to follow behind with a garbage bag. Every time they dug up such slime mold, they would put it in the garbage bag in her hand and throw it away together when they left.
Chen Xiao'er was immersed in the wonderful outing. Professor Ding had already put down the common slime mold, walked under a tree trunk, dug around a few times, and pulled out a small mole without eyes.
He held the mouse by its neck and showed it around carefully.
"Look, this little mole and its relatives are also poisonous. Wear gloves when handling them. Their venom is deadly; a bite will kill within three hours. Unless you can rush to the central hospital immediately and ask the doctor to give you a shot of serum that costs 100,000 yuan."
Wow, antitoxin serum is sold for 100,000 yuan, is that robbery?
Chen Xiao'er thought about it carefully, maybe because few people would be bitten by it, so it was sold so expensively in order to spread the cost of drug research and development?
The logic made sense, but the mole also looked familiar. She seemed to have seen it on the outskirts of Changhe City.
Chen Xiao'er took out her phone and took pictures of the little mole, imitating her classmates. She turned and quietly asked her senior, "Is this kind of mole very common? I've seen it quite a few times in the suburbs."
Ling glanced at the low-level anomaly wriggling in Ding Pingsu's gloves and replied quietly, "This mole has many close relatives and is widely distributed. It's generally not very dangerous. When walking in the wild, remember to wear long pants and long sleeves to avoid being bitten."
"It's an anomaly that often appears in contaminated areas. It generally doesn't possess rules or high-risk abilities. Its toxins are highly toxic, but they can be completely protected with protective clothing, so it poses little threat."
It doesn't look dangerous, but considering that a bite would cost 100,000 yuan...
It turns out that I took such a big risk when I went on an outing when I was a kid. Chen Xiao'er leaned on her senior's shoulder and patted her chest, looking scared.
Ding Pingsu put the mole aside and squatted down to touch the mushrooms around the roots. "See these fungi? They're edible after removing the caps. For those who aren't good at identifying mushrooms, forget it. The spores inside are quite toxic and very sour after cooking."
"See these abnormal growths? The bottoms are excellent materials for making supplements. Students with hands-on skills can try collecting and making them. Be careful with radiation when handling. The juice that spurts out after boiling is highly corrosive and can destroy level 1 protective gloves."
It's very sour after cooking, so it should be eaten raw? But the spore powder is poisonous, so it sounds like it should be cooked... So should it be eaten cooked or raw?
Chen Xiao'er was taking notes on her phone. Since she had no class notes in her hand, she went around to look at Lin Lang next door.
Lin Lang was also quite single. She waved her hand and said, "This kind of thing isn't dangerous at all. I didn't remember it."
As for Zheng Lu, she did take notes. What she wrote was [Look up the biology encyclopedia after returning and memorize the processing steps].
Chen Xiao'er had no choice but to sneak to the back to look at the notes of Xing Shuyao and Liu Ping'an, the two top students. She found that they had not taken any notes and had not even taken out their mobile phones.
"Excuse me..." she asked shyly, "I'm not very familiar with the fungi the teacher just introduced. Could you tell me its scientific name and some basic knowledge about it? Thank you~"
Puff.
Liu Ping'an had been chewing bubble gum in his mouth. He took out the earphones in his right ear when he heard her speak, and said nonchalantly, "Big brother, why are you learning these things? I know how to do it, and I can help you with it when the time comes. It's not a big deal."
Liu Ping'an's tone was quite calm, even deliberately friendly, but Chen Xiao'er still felt a prick in her heart.
She really couldn't figure out whether Liu Ping'an was joking or being sarcastic, so she had to look at Xing Shuyao.
This disabled but strong-willed classmate did not disappoint her.
After a moment's thought, he said, "There are similar fungi on pages 26 and 33 of the encyclopedia. These fungi have symbiotic relationships with many animals, so memorizing them by rote is difficult. If you care about your test scores, just remember whether they are edible and the specific edible parts."
These anomalous derivatives always appear alongside larger anomalies, making it difficult to distinguish between them. If you're concerned about school assessments, just remember their dangers and their usefulness.
"Thank you~"
Chen Xiao'er thanked her in surprise, then jumped back excitedly and rubbed against her senior sister.
Zero tilted his head slightly, a blue light flashing in his eyes. "You look happy, is it because of their answer?"
Chen Xiao'er nodded, sighing sincerely, "Yes, I just asked some questions. Xing knows a lot. He memorized the entire Biology Illustrated Book that was just handed out."
"Student Xing does have an extraordinary memory, somewhat similar to someone with hyperthymesia."
Ling said calmly: "I can do it too. You can ask me if you have any questions in the future."
Does the senior also have a memory similar to hyperthymesia?
Chen Xiao'er's eyes suddenly widened. In her eyes, Zero was already attached with many layers of halo: temperament, student union status, athletic nerves... It felt like she could do her best in anything she wanted to do.
I don’t know why, but I feel both happy and worried. Am I worried that my senior is too far away from me?
Chen Xiao'er ignored her delicate feelings and asked softly, "I used to often see a silver butterfly with huge black spots in the mountains outside Changhe City. Do you know what kind of butterfly it is?"
Zero shook his head. "I don't have enough information. I don't know which one you're talking about."
Just as Chen Xiao'er was about to change the question, she saw a silver butterfly fluttering stealthily towards the flowers.
She quickly raised her finger: "That's it!"
Brush——
A silver-blue figure passed by, and Ling appeared next to the flowers. She quickly pinched the butterfly with her fingertips and then gently crushed it.
Ling shook off the scattered scales from his palm and said calmly, "This is a silver-faced butterfly, a very common pest that harms the growth of various crops. It also has a very high reproductive capacity, so if you see it, I recommend getting rid of it immediately."
"It's a common anomaly associated with anomalies that have hallucinogenic rules. If too many of them accumulate, it can easily cause hallucinations. Therefore, it's recommended to immediately eliminate them upon sighting."
Chen Xiao'er stared blankly at the scale powder sliding from her senior's fingertips, emitting a translucent color under the light.
It's so strange, even when Zero does such an action, it doesn't seem cruel, but instead has a strange beauty... It's clearly killing, but it seems like he is protecting something.
She was delayed for a few minutes, but Professor Ding didn't stop and went on to the next knowledge point.
The teaching assistant brought over a three-foot square wooden box from somewhere and opened it in front of everyone.
Inside was a pile of crop seeds, each seed in a separate glass bottle, the size of a sunflower seed. Next to the seed bottle was a bag of soil and a glass bottle of nutrient solution, much like the baby gardening sets sold on Taobao.
Professor Ding picked up a bottle, deftly opened the cork with his index finger and thumb, poured the seeds into one of the bags of soil with a "pop", and then quickly sealed it.
He waved the small bag of soil in his hand and introduced cheerfully, "This sunflower is a special variety developed by the school. It's very easy to grow. You can plant it. Be careful not to kill it. The roasted sunflower seeds are delicious."
"This plant's abnormal morphology has been artificially treated. If successfully cultivated, it could become excellent raw material. However, the cultivation process is still somewhat risky, so be careful."
The teaching assistant picked up the bottle and began to distribute the seeds one by one from left to right. Professor Ding was not idle either. He picked up the remaining bottles and distributed them from right to left.
He sent them one by one, and when he reached Chen Xiao'er, he paused and greeted her in a very happy tone: "Oh wow~ Hello, Miss Polaris."
Good, good opportunity. I must find a way to fight back and make him dare not call me that again!
The corner of Chen Xiao'er's mouth twitched, but before she could even think up a plan, Professor Ding had already withdrawn the bottle in his hand, muttering, "You won't need this. Forget it, forget it. Don't waste your time."
"Your superpowers are incredibly restrained. Never mind. I can't waste your time."
Huh? You're going to stop pretending and start something in front of the whole class?
Chen Xiao'er's eyes widened in shock.
Did he personally distribute the plants that everyone was supposed to plant in biology class, then skip me, and then deduct all my regular marks for "not doing homework"?
It's really disrespectful of you to use such crude means to deal with me!
Chen Xiao'er felt an inexplicable anger rising in her heart. She grabbed the bottle from the teacher's hand and snatched it away with force.
Huh~ Even if you are a professor, I will not admit defeat!
Chen Xiao'er mustered up her courage and shouted loudly under Ding Ping's astonished gaze, "Professor, you just forgot to give me the seed."
She stared at Ding Pingsu's eyes: You know best whether you have forgotten or not!
Professor Ding was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head good-naturedly. "Hey, that's right. You're young after all. It's okay. Take it home and try it. Maybe you can grow it."
"Hey, that's right. Your superpowers are subjective, after all. Take it home and give it a try. Who knows, maybe you can grow it?"
The underlying meaning of "maybe I can grow it" is "you probably can't grow it", which is really an undisguised disdain.
"Hmph..." Chen Xiao'er pursed her lips seriously, not swearing at the professor in front of everyone. "There's still plenty of time. I won't give you the chance to hurt me."
Ding ding~
A radio hidden in the ceiling made a pleasant dinging sound.
Professor Ding smiled casually, pulling out his phone and pointing to the passageway at the other end of the botanical garden. "Your Professor Milo is here! Okay, okay, come over. She's more knowledgeable about this stuff than I am."
"Thank you, Professor."
"Goodbye, Professor."
The classmates said goodbye to Professor Ding in unison, and Chen Xiao'er also lowered her voice to blend in. She murmured "thank you professor", and her mind was completely filled with the elegant figure of Professor Mi Luo.
That's great! I'm sure I can learn faster and better with Professor Milo teaching biology.
…
Ding Pingsu watched the students leave from the passage, and touched the stubble on his chin with a smile.
He turned and stepped onto the smooth sealing stone slab, muttering to himself: "Milo should show them the epic of mankind and the remains of the beings..."
Click.
He stopped and looked at the plant-type sealed area outside the stone slab with a frown: The plant-type anomaly seems to be particularly quiet today.
Is it because of Chen Xiao’er’s superpowers?
But according to intelligence, the emotions displayed by the malicious anomalies when facing Chen Xiao'er were closer to fear, but now their emotions are closer to... excitement?
Beep beep.
Ding Pingsu turned on the communicator and a text message came in.
Xing Shuyao: Hello, Professor Ding. Ye Xiaoyu said she saw the building collapse.
The "credibility" of prophetic superpowers has always been in doubt, especially these suggestive images.
However, Ding Pingsu did not hesitate for even a second and directly pressed the emergency contact button on the communicator.
"Hello, this is Ding Pingsu. Tell them to go into alert mode, immediately!"
