A long string of ding sounds lasted for a long time before stopping. Ruan Xi breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart was filled with excitement she had never felt before.
This is definitely more exciting than upgrading my superpowers in my previous life!
Ruan Xi was still there excitedly. The big tree poked him several times with its branches, but he didn't react at all. In the end, the tree had no choice but to wrap it around his waist and lift him up high.
Ruan Xi: "...Dashu, what are you doing?" Ruan Xi, who was forcibly lifted up high, finally came to his senses. He looked at Dashu with an embarrassed face, feeling that he was being coaxed like a three-year-old child.
The big tree sighed heavily in Ruan Xi's mind and said, "You finally woke up. How is it? Have you unlocked the atlas? Have you upgraded it? Is there any planting space?" The big tree asked three questions in a row, and every question hit the point, which made Ruan Xi's mouth open a little bit, with a bit of pride in his smile.
"The atlas currently unlocks 107 kinds of plants. Each unlocked plant has a corresponding planting space, and the atlas has been successfully upgraded. Big tree, look, there are still so many plants that have not matured. These are my upgrade resources! That's awesome!" It was the first time that Ruan Xi showed his emotions so openly, and he was happy. You know, in his previous life, he had hardly been truly happy since the end of the world, and was eventually betrayed by his companions. He didn't expect that he could experience such happiness after living again.
Well, this rebirth is already worth the price of admission. It is foreseeable that his life will become more and more exciting. No matter what, he cannot waste the opportunity to live again!
"That's great! As long as the illustrations can be continuously upgraded, your wood-related abilities can also be upgraded accordingly, so you don't have to think of other ways." The tree was genuinely happy for Ruan Xi, and in return, Ruan Xi rubbed it lovingly. The man and the tree looked so loving to each other that He Ziqian, who came back with the cleaned prey, was speechless.
This person and this tree, are they always so close? Is it really necessary for their relationship to be this good?
However, He Ziqian did not say these words, nor did he deliberately avoid them. He walked up to Ruan Xi with a swagger, raised the prey in his hand and gestured to him to inform him of his arrival.
He Ziqian was about to light a fire to grill some meat when he looked up and saw a patch of plants in front of him that had already matured, with various fruits hanging from them. He was a little shocked and asked, "Are these plants ripe?"
Such a rapid growth rate is obviously unscientific, so what is the reason? Is it the Tree of Life, or Ruan Xi?
"Well, this is a Feng Shui treasure land, and the tree here is the Tree of Life!" The name "Tree of Life" alone suggests its vibrant vitality. How could land that can support the Tree of Life be barren? Its fertility seemed perfectly natural, but He Ziqian felt something was amiss, and he couldn't quite put his finger on it, so he gave up for now.
After all, Ruan Xi clearly didn't intend to tell the truth. Even if he took a step back, he and Ruan Xi had no friendship at all, and they were even on guard against each other. How could he be completely defenseless against each other? If he were in her shoes, He Ziqian would make the same choice.
"That's right, congratulations." He Ziqian could feel Ruan Xi's emphasis on planting, and even his persistence, so this congratulations really pleased Ruan Xi, and made him give He Ziqian a sincere smile.
"Thanks."
After the two finished talking, they went about their own business. He Ziqian started a fire and grilled meat, while Ruan Xi began to collect the seeds of plants that had been catalyzed to maturity. By putting them into the backpack, he actually scattered them all into the corresponding planting space. There was no need to water or fertilize. The planting space was an all-round planting manager. He only needed to sow the seeds and then he could be at ease as a hands-off boss.
It couldn't be better!
Ruan Xi stated that he had completely forgiven those who betrayed him in his past life. After all, if it weren't for that self-explosion, he wouldn't have had the chance to be reborn, let alone possess the botanical encyclopedia. In the blink of an eye, Ruan Xi completely let go of all the grudges and disputes from his past life.
Soon, Ruan Xi's seed collection work was nearing completion, and He Ziqian's barbecue work was also about to be completed. The air was filled with the rich aroma of meat. Even if there were not many kinds of seasonings, the rich smell was enough to whet one's appetite. Ruan Xi's belly immediately rumbled for a while to show his respect for the barbecue.
He Ziqian couldn't help but curl his lips slightly when he heard the gurgling sounds. He took out a dagger and neatly sliced the barbecued meat into slices of appropriate size. He placed them on clean leaves and handed them to Ruan Xi. "Eat it. You'll have more energy to work after you're full."
"Thank you." Ruan Xi was never polite with He Ziqian. After thanking him, he sat down cross-legged and ate the barbecue with big mouthfuls. From time to time, he took a bite of the fruit that the big tree brought to his mouth. He felt so happy that the self-reliant He Ziqian who was standing aside could not help but shake his head and laugh.
The interaction between this man and this tree was the most interesting thing he had ever seen in his life.
Sure enough, Ruan Xi was the most special child, so special that He Ziqian felt that even if they never met again, he would probably never forget this person for the rest of his life.
In the next three days, He Ziqian would bring prey to Ruan Xi at regular times for three meals a day, as if to make sure that Ruan Xi was safe. Even if Ruan Xi was slow-witted, he could see it and felt a little grateful in his heart.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. You don't have to run around three times a day." Ruan Xi knew how much He Ziqian cared about his mecha.
"It doesn't matter. Without key materials, my mecha cannot be completely repaired." This was also a subtle reminder to Ruan Xi that his request for help was still in effect, and he asked him not to forget it.
Ruan Xi: "..." Well, he had a deep understanding of He Ziqian's persistence. He had helped him a lot, so he should give something in return.
"I'm going home tomorrow and will ask my grandmother about the merchant ship trading. Will you stay here or go back with me?" After all, in the eyes of the Ruan family, He Ziqian is his newly hired temporary worker, so it is normal to keep him by his side.
"I'll go back with you."
"It's settled then. Let's go to bed early tonight."
"good."
He Ziqian is a man with self-discipline that is almost terrifying. He always does what he should do at the right time, to the minute.
However, Ruan Xi couldn't sleep.
Because, the plants in the planting space in the illustrations have all grown into mature plants in just three days, and some of the faster-growing ones have even begun to bloom.
This growth rate is amazing!
