It was a night with a solemn atmosphere.
On the planet Xiaohua, on the highest peak of Xiaohua Mountain and its vicinity, all the exotic beasts lay obediently in their own nests, not daring to run out and have fun or fight as usual. Even the ordinary wild beasts with low intelligence curled up their tails or lowered their heads and dared not say a word.
Because tonight is the day when their little flower star boss gives birth to babies!
No, it should be called the day of flowering and fruiting.
Jinchu is a little flower demon, who is exactly one thousand years old this year. He doesn’t know what kind of flower he is, he only knows that he has a flower bud that looks like white jade. For so many long years, the flower bud has always been a flower bud, a round ball, but tonight, it is finally going to bloom!
Jinchu had turned into his original form early on. On the flat and moist ground on the top of the mountain, countless branches extended out, with leaves of varying sizes on them. Each leaf was emerald green and crystal clear, fresh and plump, as if containing flowing liquid, which was very cute.
Jinchu stretched out its body wantonly, and the branches filled the entire top of the mountain and even extended to the hillside below. The complex root system went deep into the ground, almost like a net that wrapped up the entire mountain.
If someone saw this scene, they would probably think it was a large patch of vines, and would not imagine that it came from a single plant.
Of course, Jinchu prefers to call himself a flower. He is a cute and lovely little flower fairy because he has a crystal clear and lovely flower bud.
In the center of the vast green branches and leaves, a white jade-like flower bud stood prettily on the branch, and its outermost petals were tremblingly opening, swaying gently in the night breeze.
Directly above the head is the loyal satellite of the planet Little Flower - the red moon. It is a full moon at this moment, and the light pink moonlight sprinkles down, dyeing the entire night sky with a misty light pink. It looks a bit dirty, but the red moonlight falling on the flower buds seems to be a huge amount of nutrients, which are all absorbed into it, and then one petal after another opens.
Jinchu was thrilled. Although he didn't know his origins, he instinctively knew he only had the chance to bloom once every thousand years. Only by blooming could he bear fruit, and only by bearing fruit could he give birth to another little flower demon—his child. When the little flower demon grew a little bigger, it would be able to transform and pull its roots out of the soil. Then he could take it with him across the mountains and planets!
Thinking that there would soon be a chubby white ball calling him "Dad", Jin Chu was so excited that all the leaves began to shake, making rustling sounds.
He has been lonely for a long time. Although there are more and more exotic beasts and plants here, and some of them have awakened their intelligence and can communicate with him, the temptation of having a baby of his own is still too great for him.
Time passed slowly, and the layers of jade-white and delicate petals finally bloomed, revealing the stamens inside.
A straighter and thicker pistil, surrounded by a circle of thinner and more curved stamens, slowly stretched and stood up under the moonlight.
Jinchu was incredibly excited and curious. This was the first time he'd known what his flower buds looked like. They looked no different from ordinary flowers. He anxiously waited for them to mature. As long as he applied the pollen to the pistil in the center, he'd finally have his own fruit!
At the same time, a nearly scrapped silver mecha glided through the dark space.
"...The mecha is 93% damaged, with less than 5% remaining energy... Zizizizi...Searching for a safe landing spot, Zizizizi..."
The electronic synthesized sound of the mecha "Pili" was replaced by a crackling sound. Ye Ruisheng woke up vaguely, raised his bloody face, and wanted to reach out to the control panel, but dropped his hand halfway. An alloy spear as thick as a bowl pierced through the chest of the mecha, piercing his chest and nailing him firmly to the seat. If the mecha had not immediately activated the final survival mode and ensured the pressure in the cabin, he would have become a few pieces of debris in space by now.
But even so, the damaged mecha cabin is still in danger of disintegration at any time.
Ye Ruisheng's mind was in a state of confusion. He had just been besieged by twelve mechas. They were well prepared. Each of them was an ace pilot who had thoroughly studied his fighting style, and their mechas' performance also restrained his thunderbolt. The most troublesome thing was that three of the twelve possessed psychic powers, and they combined their strength to continuously interfere with and attack him.
Ye Ruisheng was overwhelmed and made frequent mistakes. Finally, his mental power exploded, crushing the spiritual cores of the three opponents, but he also entered a state of mental frenzy. In short, he lost his mind and went berserk. After that, he only vaguely remembered that he tore apart all the opponent's mechas, and then the present.
That transport ship should have been rescued. Since the other party's target is me, they should not pay much attention to that ordinary civilian transport ship.
Ye Ruisheng curled his lips when he thought of this. He didn't expect that such a thing would happen during a vacation. Those people were really impatient.
As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, his mind fell into chaos again, his spiritual core was shattered, and the mental storm continued, making it difficult for him to think.
"Zizizizi, an unidentified planet has been discovered. Coordinates... cannot be marked, radius of the planet... unmeasurable. Should we connect to gravity? Zizizizi..."
Ye Ruisheng reluctantly raised his eyes and looked at the misty, light red planet on the shattered screen. He had never seen this planet before, and it looked mysterious and dangerous. However, crashing on the planet was better than having his mecha scrapped and become space junk. His eyes were unfocused, and he moved his lips: "Connect..."
"Starting to connect to gravity... Gravity connection completed, calculating gravity... Zizizizi, correcting landing trajectory... Beep, beep, beep! Alarm! Alarm!"
After the silver mecha approached a certain range from the light red planet, it was affected by a huge gravitational force. The entire mecha flew towards the planet like a cannonball, and due to the intense friction with the atmosphere on the planet's surface, it turned into a huge fireball.
The mecha's intelligence could only use its remaining energy to create an energy barrier to wrap around the entire mecha. After more than ten minutes, the energy was completely exhausted, the mecha was closer to the planet, and its speed reached a terrifying level.
“Ahhhhh——”
On the Little Flower Planet, strange beasts and ordinary beasts raised their heads.
—Look! What's that? A burning rock?!
—Idiot, that’s a shooting star!
——What is a meteor?
——A meteor is a stone that burns as it falls!
——…So where did the meteor go?
——That’s...Oh my God, that’s Xiaohua Mountain!
…
Jinchu finally waited for this moment!
The stamens and pistils are mature, and the next step is pollination. This step is very critical and the time is very short.
He picked left and looked right, hoping to find the strongest and most beautiful stamen with the best pollen so that he could get the healthiest fruit!
After searching for a long time, I finally found it. This is it!
He pulled up a small whisker from the ground, carefully hooked it onto the stamen, and tremblingly moved towards the pistil in the center that looked particularly arrogant and cold.
At this moment, the sky suddenly brightened and a tongue of fire fell straight down.
Jinchu: “!!!”
What?!
Seeing that the thing was about to hit his little flower, he immediately mobilized countless branches to rise from the ground and whip towards the fire.
In an instant, the top of the mountain was like a place full of tentacle monsters and demons dancing wildly.
Countless strong and powerful branches exerted force together, and with a snap, the strange fire was blown away. However, something fell out of the strange fire and slid down the branches.
Jinchu: “!!!!!!!”
The terrifying speed and acceleration were too much for Ye Ruisheng's severely injured body to bear. He was bleeding from all seven orifices, and his bones, internal organs, and flesh were on the verge of breaking. At this time, a huge force blew away the mecha that had burned into a pile of scrap metal, and also broke it in the process. Ye Ruisheng fell out of it and slid down along the long rope (?).
He instinctively grabbed a rope, and his thick, calloused hands pulled off... several leaves?
The crystal clear and plump leaves shattered, and a light green liquid flowed out of them, seeping into Ye Ruisheng's body through the wound on his palm. His whole body shook, and his broken limbs were repaired quickly as if they were immersed in warm medicinal liquid.
Jin Chu was angry. What the hell actually tore his leaves!
He rolled up a branch, tied it up, and threw it away!
But don't forget that there was an alloy spear piercing Ye Ruisheng's chest. The handle of the spear was caught by other branches. When Ye Ruisheng was thrown away, it was suddenly pulled out, and blood splattered everywhere. One drop of blood passed through the barriers of many branches and happened to fall in the center of the small white flower - the stigma of the pistil!
Jinchu: “…”
There was a long silence.
All the branches that were standing upright froze, and time seemed to have stopped at this moment.
Wow——
The loud sound of someone being thrown into the river in the distance broke everything. Jinchu: "Ahhhhhhhhh!!! Wrong, wrong, it can't be like this!!!"
The branches were dancing wildly, a real riot of activity. But the little white flower was clearly not among them. It had been waiting for this moment of union for a long time, hadn't it? It was all because of its trunk's slowness.
The stigma of the pistil immediately absorbed the drop of blood and combined it... Hey, something seems wrong.
It doesn't matter. The pistil was very capable in selecting a cell with a still existing nucleus from the countless cells in the drop of blood. It broke through the nucleus and found the chromosomes it needed, one by one, without missing a single one. It dragged them to itself and paired them one by one with the ones on its side, leaving no more and no less.
Neat and tidy, perfect!
It can be said that it follows genetic rules very well.
A brand new cell was born and sank contentedly, becoming an ovule in the ovary, while the pistil and stamens above began to wither rapidly, and the beautiful white petals also began to fall off, until only a bare and ugly branch remained.
“Ahhhhh no!!!” Jinchu frantically waved his arms and legs (branches), but was completely unable to stop this from happening. Extremely sad, he suddenly turned back into human form, and all the branches, leaves, and roots disappeared. Only a handsome young man was left on the lonely hilltop, slumped on the ground, with more than a dozen white petals falling on his head, body, and surroundings. He closed his eyes, tilted his head back, and cried recklessly: “Wow——”
