Chapter 104



Chapter 104

Selaginella is worthy of being called the herb that can bring back the dead.

After the leaves spread out, there was a little change almost every once in a while. The cubs gathered around the can of spiritual water, watching in amazement.

Even Xiao Zhengxing couldn't help but come over and feel the vitality emanating from this revived Selaginella.

Su Ci, who had originally planned to take them back, stayed in the spaceship temporarily after seeing this.

He couldn't help feeling a little relieved as he looked at the Selaginella trees that had regained a hint of green.

This Selaginella may have entered a dormant state of suspended animation before the red fog appeared on the planet, so it was not as severely affected by the red fog as the small weeds and mosses.

This also means that once it recovers, it can be transplanted outdoors quickly.

Of course, Su Ci is more cautious. Although Selaginella has strong vitality, not all environments are suitable for its growth. If you want it to grow well and reproduce quickly, you still need to do some research.

But this is not a big problem for Su Ci.

"If I remember correctly, Selaginella is also a medicinal herb." Su Ci said, "It can reduce inflammation and stop bleeding. Whether it is applied externally or taken internally, it has good effects."

Although Selaginella has the word "cypress" in its name, it is not a tree but a fern that can grow in extremely arid places. Once it lacks water, its leaves will curl up and its roots will leave the soil, waiting for the environment to become suitable again.

Its leaves can be used to stop bleeding and are the raw material for making wound medicine. The whole plant can also be burned into ashes and taken orally, which is very effective in treating internal bleeding.

The little white deer and the little Zhengxing nodded as if they understood, but the little wolf cub's eyes lit up slightly.

The other cubs have become accustomed to medical spray and medical cabins. No matter what injuries they have, they can just lie down in the medical cabin and be fine. However, the little wolf cub, who has been beaten and scolded by pirates since childhood, understands that medical spray and medical cabins will not always be available.

Without these medical equipment, he would have to bear the injuries on his own. However, now, the breeder has opened the door to a new world for him.

He looked at the Selaginella with eager eyes. It was the first time he knew that plants could heal wounds!

"I wonder if there's any more immortal grass outside the base?"

"It's really tenacious. It can survive in such harsh conditions..."

Seeing several cubs gathered around Selaginella to discuss, Su Ci did not join them. He turned and walked to the exit of the spaceship, and A Yan followed him closely.

Although No. 244H is close to retirement, its configuration is actually not low. There is a transmission platform at the exit, which can directly transmit personnel out of the spacecraft or quickly connect personnel into the spacecraft.

"Xiaozhi, can the spaceship's transmission platform be connected to the nursery?" Su Ci asked.

There is a transfer platform inside the nursery, which makes it convenient to transfer the cubs back to the room in case of emergencies.

Su Ci thought that if the spaceship's transmission platform could be connected to the nursery, it would be much more convenient to travel back and forth. Unfortunately, the idea was beautiful, but the reality was cruel.

"No." The base's intelligent computer replied mercilessly.

The teleportation platform of the spaceship works on a different principle than the nursery. It can only teleport objects around the spaceship, and cannot teleport objects a little further away.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be more convenient to just use the teleporter to transport the goods back and forth between the spaceship and the warehouse? Furthermore, the teleporters used throughout the base also have distance limits, otherwise there wouldn't be any need to use the spaceship to transport supplies to the supply depot.

After hearing the explanation from the intelligent computer, Su Ci couldn't help but sneer.

Although the human race in the Dharma-Ending Age has found something to replace the formation, it is still inferior and has many limitations.

Su Ci nodded and simply pulled A Yan over. The two of them squatted on the ground and carved a new magic circle next to the teleportation platform.

Seeing the new formation, A Yan couldn't help but feel refreshed and began to read it attentively. While Su Ci was carving the formation, he was also explaining the structure of the teleportation formation to him.

This kind of functional formation can bring many conveniences in real life. Even if A Yan cannot learn how to draw it in a short period of time, he must at least master how to use it.

Hearing Su Ci's request to him, A Yan nodded quickly and listened more seriously.

After the formation was successfully drawn, Su Ci did not demonstrate to him how to use it. Seeing this, A Yan blinked in confusion.

But soon, he figured it out.

"Susu, this is a teleportation array, so it requires two sets of accessories to use it, right?" A Yan asked.

Su Ci nodded and rubbed his furry ears. "You have good comprehension. Keep it up."

A Yan grinned, and a blush appeared on his little face because of being touched on the head.

Next, Su Ci took him back to the cabin, and the three children were still surrounding the Selaginella tree.

I saw that the leaves of the Selaginella had all stretched out and were floating in the spiritual water. The green spots that were originally just scattered dots had spread outward.

Perhaps this Selaginella will be fully alive without having to wait until tomorrow.

Su Ci was very satisfied. Seeing that the time was almost up, he finally ignored the pleading eyes of the cubs and took them out of the spaceship and came to an empty hover bus again.

When the hover bus arrived at the nursery station, he got off with a few cubs. Seeing this scene, Xun Xiaoyu and her teammates who were guarding outside the nursery could not help but look at each other.

Weren't the keepers and cubs supposed to be off the hoverbus? How did they get off the bus?

Because of reports that the keeper was traveling alone with three cubs, the task force naturally had to follow up for safety reasons.

As a result, the four teams searched for an entire afternoon but could not find the whereabouts of the breeder and the cubs in the base.

If it weren't for the dangers lurking outside the base and the layers of procedures required to go out, they would have been unable to help but wonder if the breeder had kidnapped the cubs.

What's even more strange is that when they reported the matter to Captain Yan, the response they received was to withdraw and not to deal with the matter anymore. This was really abnormal.

Although Xun Xiaoyu withdrew the team members, he was still worried, so he brought people to guard outside the nursery.

If the keeper and the cubs still didn't come back by dark, she would never give up. Unexpectedly, at the last moment before dark, the keeper finally showed up with the cubs.

Moreover, he came back on a hover bus.

Xun Xiaoyu led her team to meet them. Just as she was about to speak, she saw the little wolf cub running ahead, calling out to her happily, "Sister Xun!"

His sudden call of "big sister" made Xun Xiaoyu slip and almost fall to the ground.

"You...what did you just call me?" Xun Xiaoyu looked at the boy in shock.

The young boy in front of me has a pair of wolf ears, a big furry tail, gray-black hair and green eyes. He is definitely number eight, right?

She couldn't have mistaken the person, so...did she hear it wrong just now?

Although the title "Big Sister" is not particularly nice, it is a bit flattering when it comes from No. 8's mouth.

However, Xun Xiaoyu's reaction caused Xiao Langze to misunderstand. He scratched his head, glanced back at Su Ci, and then looked at Xiao Lujiao for help.

Of course, he remembered one of the new rules of the nursery: be polite! And since it was in front of Su Ci, he didn't dare to break it, but...

The action team's sister's reaction seemed a little off. Did she yell the wrong thing?

With "Uncle Little Camel" in front of him, he certainly knew how others would react if he showed politeness, so he was inevitably at a loss when Xun Xiaoyu was so shocked that she lost control of her expression.

If not calling her "big sister", should I call her "auntie"?

Before the little wolf cub was about to change his words and call her auntie, the little white deer spoke.

He walked to the little wolf cub, looked at Xun Xiaoyu with clear eyes, and called out softly and gently, "Hello, Sister Xiaoyu."

This soft and tender childish voice, when it sounded, seemed to have some kind of power to heal people's hearts. Anyway... Xun Xiaoyu felt like her heart had melted into water when she listened to these "Sister Xiaoyu".

She subconsciously looked towards the little white deer, and her voice softened unconsciously, adopting the kind of soothing tone that one would unconsciously reveal when addressing a young cub. She said with a smile, "Hey, little deer, how are you?"

After she responded and looked at the little white deer clearly, she realized belatedly that—

Oh my god, this is actually Number 7 who can choke people to death just by talking!

Xiao Langze next to her did not notice the shock in Xun Xiaoyu's eyes. He only saw Xun Xiaoyu's smile and her subconscious change in attitude towards the little white deer, and he felt that he had understood.

So that’s it, I learned it!

Little Langze immediately changed his tone and shouted, "Hello, Sister Xiaoyu!"

Xun Xiaoyu looked at him again with a look of surprise on his face.

Seeing this, little Langze couldn't help feeling aggrieved.

They are clearly called the same thing, why does this elder sister treat them differently?

Fortunately, when Su Ci slowly walked over with little Zhengxing, Xun Xiaoyu had already managed her expression again. She suppressed her shock and even astonishment in her heart, and also gave the little wolf cub a smile in return.

"Hello, little wolf."

Her smile was clearly filled with relief and emotion.

The four teams led by Xun Xiaoyu are mainly responsible for guarding the nursery. Whenever something happens in the nursery, she is the one who deals with it.

It can be said that these cubs were basically raised under her care, and it would be a lie to say that she had no feelings for them - the little red flower hairpin for No. 5 was given by her.

She secretly hoped that these children would get better day by day, and she understood that they were not bad by nature, but were mostly affected by the power of their bloodline, which caused their personalities to become worse and worse. When they first arrived at the nursery, these cubs were still quite well-behaved.

Unfortunately, things went against her wishes. She could only watch them suffer from the power of their bloodline and become more and more aggressive, but she was powerless to do anything. She felt only deep reluctance and helplessness in her heart.

But……

What did she just see?

Number 8, who is usually irritable and arrogant, actually greeted her and even called her "Sister" as soon as they met. Number 7, who is usually ruthless and aggressive, also sweetly called her "Sister Xiaoyu"?

Moreover, Number 7 and Number 8 are usually incompatible, so why do they look so harmonious today?

Of course, Xun Xiaoyu knew that this was not a dream, but something that was actually happening before her eyes, so how could she not be happy and excited?

The little wolf cub, who was originally feeling aggrieved and dissatisfied, felt overwhelmed by Xun Xiaoyu's gaze.

He couldn't understand her look, but he suddenly felt embarrassed, so he turned his head and looked at the breeder.

He was so polite just now, Susu should like it, right?

The little wolf cub's eyes seeking praise were too obvious, and even Su Ci couldn't ignore it. However, his polite behavior was indeed worthy of encouragement.

If you want to suppress and control the power of blood, relieve your emotions, and cultivate your mind and character, it is important. And isn’t being kind to others also a kind of practice?

After he approached, he pressed down on the wolf cub's head and rubbed it, and rubbed the boy's furry ears. Then he greeted Xun Xiaoyu: "Captain Xun."

"Breedkeeper Su." Xun Xiaoyu also responded.

She looked at the breeder in front of her, who seemed too thin in her opinion, and her evaluation of him had changed.

After all, the changes in No. 7 and No. 8 are obvious to all, and the only person who can bring about such changes to them is the breeder Su in front of them - it is actually easy to see from their intimate interaction just now.

Xun Xiaoyu was shocked, but also happy that the nursery finally had a reliable breeder.

Although No. 7 and No. 8 were not as severely affected by the power of their bloodline as the other cubs, it was surprising that they could have such a big change.

As for the more serious cases No. 2, No. 4, and No. 6, although Xun Xiaoyu did not have high expectations, this... should more or less bring some good changes to them, right?

but……

Thinking of this breeder Su, who actually dared to leave the nursery with three cubs alone without asking the guards or the action team to accompany him, Xun Xiaoyu frowned in disapproval.

Although Captain Yan had told her not to interfere in the affairs of the breeder Su, as he seemed to be of great importance, she still couldn't turn a blind eye when it came to the safety of the cubs.

However, just as Xun Xiaoyu was about to ask Su Ci where he had taken the cubs today and warned him to inform the action team in advance next time...

"Hello, Sister Xiaoyu."

The sweet and sticky voice of a baby sounded like glutinous rice balls rolled twice in icing sugar. Although it was very soft, it clearly reached Xun Xiaoyu's ears.

She suddenly forgot what she wanted to say, and lowered her head in a daze, looking at the little boy who was hiding behind Su Ci with only half of his head sticking out.

Because No. 3 is blind and has autism, he always stays quietly in his own world and is the cub with the least sense of existence in the nursery.

Just now, Xun Xiaoyu subconsciously ignored him.

Now, her expression froze, a voice echoing in her mind: What? Number Three can actually speak? How come she didn't know?

The key is... it's so cute!

Although Xun Xiaoyu's expression was dull, the emotional fluctuations she released were very active. Feeling her enthusiasm, Xiao Zhengxing...

He retracted half of his head and hid himself completely behind the breeder.

Unfortunately, the breeder was not prepared to act as his cover all the time. When Xun Xiaoyu was shocked and speechless, he said, "If there is nothing else, let's go back and eat first."

Then he walked past Xun Xiaoyu and continued forward, exposing Xiao Zhengxing who was hiding behind him.

Little Zhengxing felt Xun Xiaoyu's gaze again. He hugged the metal ball tightly in his arms, quickly stepped forward with his short legs, rushed to the front of the breeder, came to the side of the little wolf cub, and stretched out his little hand to him.

"Tired?"

Little Langze thought he was tired, so he bent down tacitly and carried little Zhengxing on his back.

Little Zhengxing lay on his back and buried his little face in his shoulder, as if that way no one could see him.

"Let's go, let's eat!"

Little Langze was already starving. When he heard Su Ci talking about eating, he couldn't bear it any longer and started running with little Zhengxing on his back.

The little deer looked at them, then turned back to look at the breeder who was walking slowly.

Seeing his hesitation, Su Ci shrugged and said, "Go ahead."

Xiaolu Jiao finally smiled and said, "I'll be leaving first." Then he called out to his friends who had already gone far away, "Langze, Xingxing, wait for me!"

This time, Little Langze, who had already rushed to the gate of the nursery, stopped when he heard his voice and turned around and shouted, "Yo Yo, hurry up!"

“Here I come!”

There was no physical work to do in the afternoon, so Xiaolu Jiao ran very fast and came to the wolf cub in a flash. The three of them ran into the nursery building together.

Xun Xiaoyu watched this scene from afar, then looked at Su Ci's gradually receding figure under the street light. She opened her mouth, but ultimately said nothing more.

Forget it, the cubs were so happy, why should she spoil their fun? After all, they had returned safely, and nothing had happened.

But she felt that the next time Keeper Su took the cubs out, he should still notify them.

After all, if it was number two or number four who went out, he would definitely not be able to control them alone. Those two cubs are like two mobile bombs, and ordinary people really can't withstand it.

Because of such concerns, Xun Xiaoyu finally took measures -

She called the intelligent computer and said to it, "Next time, if Keeper Ruosu takes the cubs out, please be sure to notify me immediately."

.

As soon as Su Ci walked into the nursery and confirmed that Xun Xiaoyu did not follow him, he took A Yan and quickly returned to the dormitory.

A Yan went to prepare dinner, and just as he sat down, he received instructions from the base's intelligent computer regarding Xun Xiaoyu - as the captain of the action team responsible for the safety of the nursery, she had the authority to obtain the whereabouts of the keepers and cubs.

Su Ci nodded. "If I left the nursery in a normal way, just tell her."

Base AI: "Got it. What exactly does it mean to leave the brooding facility in an abnormal way?"

Su Ci shrugged, "That's a lot."

Anyway, walking out the door or taking public transportation to leave is definitely the normal way.

Speaking of transportation...

Su Ci couldn't help but feel envious when he thought of the flying saucers used by the action team. Although he could also fly in the air, it would consume soul power after all.

What's more, using this flying method requires using invisibility, which doubles the soul power used.

However, after checking the redemption points for the flying saucer, Su Ci temporarily gave up the idea of ​​getting one to play with. Of course, this was only temporary.

When the Star Chain Fruits in the field ripen, he shouldn't have to worry about points anymore.

Thinking of this, Su Ci came to the living room and began to draw the teleportation array in the open space - this way, it would save a lot of time and effort to travel back and forth between the spaceship and the nursery in the future.

I'll go to the river tomorrow and draw another one, then connect the three formations together so we can share what we have with each other...

They left for the entire afternoon, and the nursery was peaceful and calm, with nothing happening. Number Two and Number Six were still dormant, and as for the lion siblings...

After drawing the formation, Su Ci glanced at Xiao Lihua, who was still buried in front of the desk, writing his name stroke by stroke. He silently lit a candle for her in his heart, and then withdrew his spiritual consciousness.

He came to the living room and looked at the little weed.

This small wild grass had two dry and red leaves. Now those two leaves have become full again, and the vitality of the whole grass is many times stronger than when I first saw it.

It was just planted in normal soil and watered with spiritual water, but such a big change occurred in such a short period of time, which shows how tenacious its vitality is.

Of course, Su Ci didn't plan to plant it in the ground until its leaves turned completely green again.

He took out the Selaginella and replaced the water with clean spiritual water. As for the dry red mosses, he also created a humid environment for them.

Looking at the three plants placed in front of him and feeling their breath of life that was completely native to the area, Su Ci couldn't help but slightly curl his lips, feeling happy.

Things will get better and better in the future.

Maybe it was because he was in a good mood, but Su Ci ate obviously more tonight than before, which made A Yan a little worried.

The spider meat in the cold storage should only be enough for three more days. Adding the giant black beetle, it is estimated that it will only be enough for five days at most.

So, should the plan to fight monsters be put on the agenda?

Although he wanted to fight monsters, A Yan also knew that he was too weak now, so after dinner, he began to study the formation seriously again.

He has basically transformed some commonly used formation structures into new forms.

So, before going to bed, A Yan gave Su Ci a surprise -

He successfully drew the first formation he came into contact with, the Water Purification Formation, and successfully activated it.

Su Ci looked at the successfully operating water purification array, then looked at A Yan who was looking at him anxiously, waiting for his evaluation, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Although it is understandable that A Yan, as a rule-based spirit, has talent in formations, this talent... is a bit too strong.

How long had it been? You know, he originally planned to teach for a year or so...

Never mind, this is a good thing.

Su Ci reached out and rubbed A Yan's head hard, praising him generously, "Very good!"

This way, some of the work can be done by A Yan...

While Su Ci was thinking, A Yan, who was being patted on the head, was still not satisfied. He did not continue to talk about the formation, but asked: "Su Su, what kind of tail do you like?"

The boy's gentle and clear voice was obviously synthesized, and there should be no emotion in it. However, Su Ci, who was a little distracted, was a little dazed at this moment.

He seemed to see a young boy, about eighteen or nineteen years old, who had just grown up, looking at him with fervent yet slightly shy eyes, and asking him this question...

Su Ci blinked, and the young man disappeared from his sight, but after all, he left some traces in his heart.

He likes...

What kind of tail...
