Chapter 123
Little Langze looked at the candy in his hand with a confused look on his face.
He had a keen sense of smell and could smell the sweet aroma of the candy even through the wrapping paper. Recalling the wonderful taste of the candy, little Langze couldn't help swallowing.
"Xingxing, do you think that stinky monkey put anything bad in the candy?" He looked at the candy in his hand eagerly, as if he wanted to eat it but didn't dare to.
When Xiao Zhengxing heard his words, he controlled his mental power and scanned the candy.
"No." He said softly.
When Little Langze heard this, his brows knitted even more tightly together. Finally, he made up his mind and said, "It would be a waste if I don't eat it!"
Besides, he can't be bought off with just one candy. If you want to be friends with him, just one candy won't do!
Thinking of this, little Langze couldn't wait to open the candy.
"Xingxing, do you want to eat?"
Xiao Zhengxing shook his head, but the boy still bit off half of the candy, which was not very big to begin with, and stretched out his hand to hold it in front of him.
"Xingxing, open your mouth."
Little Zhengxing hesitated for a moment, but finally opened his mouth obediently, and then half a candy was stuffed into his mouth.
It tastes sweet and a little cool, like the smell of wind.
Little Zhengxing curled up under the leaves, tasting the sweetness in his mouth and heard the boy's hearty laughter. After a while, a melodious flute sounded.
The cheerful, jumping and joyful sound of the flute reached his ears, and slowly, the corners of Xiao Zhengxing's lips curled up.
He felt as if he saw the bright light again...
When Su Ci brought A Yan to the green land, he heard the sound of Xiao Langze's flute. He couldn't help but stop and looked at the wolf-eared boy playing the bamboo flute with some surprise.
This least-favored little wolf cub not only learned a complete flute piece, but also touched the threshold in the field of music cultivation.
Next, he can teach him the mantra of sound cultivation.
Su Ci nodded with satisfaction, and his mood became more cheerful as he listened to the sound of the bamboo flute.
Zhuang Shisong was the first to notice his arrival, and quickly nudged Wei Ming beside him with his elbow, and then the two of them stood up together.
"Breedkeeper Su!" the two shouted almost in unison.
Su Ci looked at them and nodded calmly as a response.
Cen Liang, who heard the noise, hurried over and said, "This is Zhuang Shisong and Wei Ming. You've met them before. I'll let them be my assistants. Shouldn't that be a problem?"
"Yes, sure."
Su Ci had a good impression of Zhuang Shisong, and his professional ability was also strong. As for the other one... he looked at Wei Ming.
Wei Ming was also looking at him. When he met Su Ci's gaze, his face flushed and he seemed to be trying hard to say something.
Su Ci had some impression of him. He was a very responsible cultivator, but he had a slightly impatient temper.
Just as he was about to look away, Wei Ming suddenly stepped forward, bowed deeply to him, and said loudly, "I'm sorry, teacher!"
Su Ci: ...?
A question mark slowly appeared above Su Ci's head, and Wei Ming also realized that he had said something wrong and felt extremely embarrassed, but since things had come to this point, he could only give up.
He shouted, "Keeper Su, I shouldn't have doubted your planting techniques before. I'm just ignorant. Please accept me as your student!"
Zhuang Shisong was also stunned by Wei Ming's action, but his eyes soon lit up and his gaze towards Su Ci became fiery.
"Please accept me as well, Teacher Su!"
Zhuang Shisong also followed Wei Ming's example and bowed to Su Ci with a very sincere attitude.
Cen Liang, who was standing next to him, was also stunned by the two boys' actions. However... he looked at the lush green land, then at the two mutant plants...
It seems that it is really worthwhile to learn from this teacher!
He felt a little regretful. If he were not so old and unwilling to give up his reputation, he would have wanted to follow the example of these two clever little guys and become their apprentice.
but……
He looked at Su Ci. Would this young man who always looked lazy and dull be willing to accept two students who looked older than himself?
Su Ci was indeed hesitant.
He had thought about establishing a cooperative relationship with the plantation and using the human race to help him restore the vitality of the earth, but he had never thought about accepting these humans as students.
After all, he didn't have much to teach about planting...
Su Ci's gaze swept across the two small spiritual buds, then looked at the several star chain fruits that had already bloomed, his eyes showing thought.
Spiritual plant masters are indeed needed.
Although he did not master the complete inheritance of the spiritual plant master, with his abilities and his innate affinity with plants as an earth spirit, it was not difficult for him to create this inheritance.
The question is... are these two humans worthy of trust?
Unlike cubs, there are very few adult humans with pure minds. Even if there are, the social relationships they have are not necessarily simple.
For now, Su Ci doesn't want to get involved in anything too complicated.
So, he said calmly: "It depends on your performance."
Hearing that he did not directly refuse, Zhuang Shisong and Wei Ming could not help but look at each other and saw the joy in each other's eyes.
They nodded hurriedly, "Of course!"
In the circle where the two grew up, their teachers were all accomplished people, and they were able to patiently stay on the Prison Star with harsh conditions, which also shows their perseverance and persistence on the road of cultivation.
Judging from the results, Su Ci's ability is beyond doubt. Wei Ming is convinced and his attitude towards him has changed from the bottom of his heart.
"Then let's get busy!"
The two continued to complete the task assigned to them by Cen Liang, and at this time, Wu Yunqin also arrived with people from the logistics department.
Because the demolition work of the greenhouse is quite arduous, it cannot be completed by Luo Shengfei alone. Moreover, Wu Yunqin issued an urgent task, requiring it to be completed within today, so there are two maintenance teams coming this time.
Naturally, everyone who saw the green space behind the nursery building was shocked.
Apart from anything else, they have been staying on Prison Star all year round, exposed to a cold, boring and dangerous environment. Suddenly, when they felt such vibrant greenery, their mood became different!
"Okay, everyone, stop standing there and get to work." Wu Yunqin clapped his hands to bring the maintenance workers back to their senses.
"Now is not the time to be idle. You have seen the condition of this green space. We must rush to build a greenhouse before the next extreme weather event!"
The members of the maintenance team also realized the urgency of the incident. Although they still had many doubts in their hearts, they suppressed them for the time being and began to act quickly.
The nursery hasn't been this lively for a long time.
The cubs didn't go back to their rooms, but instead stayed around the green space, looking up curiously at the maintenance team building the greenhouse.
The materials of the greenhouse are transparent to visible light and will not block the sunlight. The light is even more beautiful under the refraction of the transparent material.
They watched with their own eyes as the greenhouse was built bit by bit, covering the entire nursery building like a dome.
It was the first time for the little boys to see such a large building completed, and they watched very attentively.
So, was a tall building like the nursery also built piece by piece in this way? They had no idea about this before.
They also suddenly realized that the destruction of the nursery during the fight didn't seem to be the right thing to do...
Although part of the reason was due to frenzy, they also knew that when they were conscious, they had fought a lot and rarely held back.
Thinking about how the nursery became a mess after every fight, and sometimes even the walls were broken through, the cubs felt inexplicably guilty.
Not now, they thought.
With Susu around, their bloodline frenzy problem has improved a lot, and they no longer dare to fight like they did in the past.
Little Lihua, who is not keen on fighting and has never destroyed the environment, has taken out her paintbrush and drawing board and is painting the scene in front of her.
In addition to the greenhouse under construction, of course the beautiful flowers of the Star Chain Fruit are indispensable!
She plans to give this painting to her sister Weiwei.
As the sun gradually rose higher, Xiao Xuewei, who had been sitting quietly, suddenly said, "Let's go prepare some tea."
"What is tea?" Little Langze pricked up his ears and asked curiously.
"It's tea leaves soaked in water." Xiao Xuewei paused and said, "I have tea leaves. They're in the room."
"Is the tea delicious?" Little Langze continued to ask.
"I quite like it, but everyone has different tastes, and first-time drinkers might not be used to it." Xiao Xuewei thought for a moment and said, "However, if it's made into milk tea, there shouldn't be many people who don't like it."
"What is milk tea?" Little Langze's eyes had become sparkling.
"It's a drink made with milk, tea leaves and sugar." Xiao Xuewei called Xiao Zhi and used pictures and videos to show her friends the process of making milk tea.
The cubs watched intently, and little Langze was already swallowing his saliva frantically.
"Wow, that looks delicious!" he said.
"Yeah, it's a pity we don't have milk." Xiao Xuewei said regretfully.
She closed the light curtain, and Xiaolu Jiao brought the topic back to where it had strayed. He asked, "But why do we need to prepare tea?"
In the video demonstration, everyone already knows what tea is.
"Give it to the maintenance workers," Xiao Xuewei said. "They're helping to build the greenhouse. Who knows how long it'll take. Don't you think they're working very hard?"
Everyone followed her gaze and looked at the maintenance workers who were urgently building a greenhouse and climbing up and down.
It seems... quite hard?
They weren't quite sure, after all, they had never tried it, but if Weiwei said it was hard, then it must be hard.
"Tea can quench thirst and refresh them. They should like it."
Xiao Xuewei remembered that when she was at her lady's house, whenever repairmen came to the house to do some repairs, the housekeeper would prepare tea and snacks for them to eat after they finished their work.
Unfortunately, there were no snacks now, and she had also realized that the nursery was short of supplies and food was not something that could be taken out casually.
But as for tea, it shouldn't be a problem, right?
The little girl spoke softly with a faint smile on her face, which made the boys, who were easily persuaded by soft words, want to do what she said.
Of course, Xiao Luli's ideas might be a little different.
Since Weiwei said so, let’s go! They are quite curious about the taste of the tea anyway.
After it’s brewed, they should be able to drink it, right?
Little Langze stood up first, "Let's go!"
Thinking of the water he drank from Luo Shengfei when he went out before, he thought to himself: He wants to let Uncle Little Camel taste what delicious water is!
Little Lu Li was the second one to stand up.
Little Langze glanced at him and snorted. Although his attitude was still bad, at least he didn't turn his face black as soon as he saw him like before.
So, except for Xiao Lihua and Xiao Zhengxing, the other cubs ran away together.
Su Ci lazily sat on a chair in the corner, listening to the cubs' conversation, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.
These little guys are becoming more and more humane.
He closed his eyes again and fell into a light sleep. Above his head, a vine was growing vigorously. Its broad leaves formed a shadow, blocking him from the warm afternoon light.
Wei Ming and Zhuang Shisong noticed that the plant's growth rate was abnormally accelerated, and quickly recorded this scene.
Without 4586 leading the way, the cubs came to the kitchen as if they were familiar with the place, and Xiao Xuewei pretended to go back to her room and brought over a can of tea.
There is warm water in the kitchen, just fill it up in a thermos and carry it to the back of the nursery building.
Under the curious gaze of the cubs, Xiao Xuewei took out the tea leaves and put them into the boiling water.
The water quality in the nursery has been purified by a water purification array, and the pollutant content is extremely low. It also contains a faint spiritual energy. Once the tea leaves fall into it, they quickly expand and dye the clear water light brown.
Seeing that her friends were curious, Xiao Xuewei poured them each a cup.
Little Langze picked up the cup, not caring about the heat. As soon as he tasted it, he frowned slightly. He was about to say that it tasted bad and was bitter, but he suddenly stopped before he could say anything.
He smacked his lips and felt that after the bitter taste, there was a sweet taste in his mouth, but it was not quite the same as the sweetness of candy.
He couldn't help but take another sip, and soon finished it all.
I can’t say I like it, but I don’t hate it either, because the taste left in my mouth is sweet!
The other cubs felt much the same way.
At this time, a voice that seemed unfamiliar to Xiao Xuewei came from the direction of the kitchen door.
"What are you doing here?" The boy's voice was still childish, but obviously more mature than the other cubs, yet different from the clear and melodious voice of his brother A Yan.
Xiao Xuewei couldn't help but look towards the door, and saw a strange red-haired boy wearing a brand new cub suit, standing there frowning at them.
"Lielie, you're back!" Xiaolu Jiao said happily when she saw Ran Lie turning back into human form.
Fierce...
Xiao Xuewei blinked her eyes, ah, so he is the little red flame tiger!
"Um."
Not long after Ran Lie woke up, he felt that the red flame power in his body was completely consumed, and his body had never felt so light.
Of course, his animal ears and tail also disappeared, which made him a little uncomfortable when he just woke up.
He stayed in the room for a while, but as he was already used to his freedom, he couldn't stay any longer, so he ran out to take a look at the green space.
Unexpectedly, after going down the stairs, I heard strange noises here. When I came over to take a look, I found that almost all the cubs were here.
Looking at the bustling scene in the kitchen, Ran Lie felt a little uncomfortable. When Rong Heng cast a slightly hostile look at him, he became even more indifferent.
"Where is Susu?" he asked coolly.
"In the green space, they're building a greenhouse over there." Xiaolu Jiao poured him a cup of tea. "This is tea, Xuewei made it. Do you want to try it?"
Ran Lie glanced at the light brown tea and was about to turn around and leave, but he took it and took a sip.
It tastes slightly bitter at first, but gradually becomes sweet.
Ran Lie, who had originally had a somewhat casual expression, gradually became serious. He savored the tea and, combining it with the Buddhist cultivation method taught to him by Su Ci, he seemed to have some enlightenment.
Seeing that he was gradually becoming absorbed in the food, Xiao Lujiao was about to ask him how it tasted when Rong Heng stopped him.
Rong Heng looked at Ran Lie's sudden enlightenment. He was very familiar with this state. This was exactly the state he felt when he had some insights when reciting the mental method.
He couldn't help but have a complicated expression. Although given his bad relationship with Ran Lie, it wouldn't matter if he didn't stop Xiao Lu Jiao, but... Rong Heng just disdained to use such means.
Su Su said that such opportunities for enlightenment are rare, and it is best not to disturb them at such times.
Rong Heng took a deep breath and felt a sense of urgency.
He couldn't continue playing around, he had to continue practicing and absolutely couldn't be caught up by Ran Lie!
After he explained quietly, everyone realized that Ran Lie was in a special condition, so they all took their tea and tiptoed out of the kitchen.
At this time, it was around five o'clock in the afternoon.
With the joint efforts of two maintenance teams and construction robots, the greenhouse of the nursery was finally completed.
Luo Shengfei came down from the sky and was about to take a breath when he heard the enthusiastic voice of the young man: "Uncle Little Camel! This way!"
He looked in the direction of the sound and saw the boy with wolf ears jumping on the spot and waving at him vigorously, "Uncle Little Camel, come here quickly!"
Luo Shengfei didn't understand what was going on, but he still said hello to his companions and then rode the flying saucer closer.
As he got closer, he saw the thermoses the children were holding. He was slightly startled and was about to ask when he heard the boy chuckle and say, "Uncle Camel, come and try this tea!"
"This is..." Luo Shengfei widened his eyes in disbelief.
"This is the black tea I prepared for you." Xiao Xuewei said with a smile, "You've worked hard today. You must be thirsty now, right? Have some tea to quench your thirst."
Looking at the soft and cute little rabbit speaking in such a soft voice, Luo Shengfei felt a sense of comfort in his heart.
Little Langze, who had become familiar with him, directly took the thermos cup hanging on his waist, opened the lid, and seeing that it was empty, he quickly poured tea into it.
"Here, drink!"
Luo Shengfei was indeed thirsty. He had finished the water he brought with him long ago. In order to catch up with the progress, they did not eat lunch and only hurriedly ate a piece of compressed biscuit.
"Okay, okay, thank you!"
Luo Shengfei took the thermos cup and took a sip of the warm black tea. As soon as the tea entered his stomach, he felt refreshed and as if all the fatigue in his body was swept away.
Is it because of the tea? Why does he think this water tastes so good?
The water was warm to begin with, so he wasn't afraid of the heat. He drank sip after sip, and soon finished the whole cup of tea. Finally, he sighed comfortably.
"Wow, that feels so good!" He couldn't help but sigh.
"Hehe, it tastes good, right?" Little Langze looked proud.
Luo Shengfei nodded, then picked up a thermos in one hand and gave it to other members of the maintenance team to drink.
When the maintenance workers heard that this was the tea prepared for them by the cub, who were reluctant to approach the cub because of the "little monster's" reputation, all showed an incredible look.
"Is it really prepared by the cubs? Don't lie to us!"
"Why would I lie to you? Didn't you see the keeper has been sleeping over there? This is what the cubs prepared for. I told you, the cubs have changed a lot now!"
Luo Shengfei spared no effort to publicize the changes in the cubs, and the maintenance workers drank the tea skeptically, and then they were conquered by the tea that contained a faint spiritual energy.
"Isn't this tea really delicious?"
"What kind of tea do you use? It's so refreshing! I feel like after drinking a cup, I feel refreshed!"
The others nodded in agreement. They drank tea and looked at the cubs playing around the green space not far away. Many of them had a dazed look on their faces.
Apart from the action team and the medical purification department, the maintenance team is undoubtedly the group of people in the base who have the most contact with the cubs.
So they also knew what the cubs were like before, but today...
After they urgently finished building the greenhouse, they belatedly realized that the cubs were so quiet today! They even looked... a little well-behaved?
Drinking the tea prepared by the cubs in the thermos, the maintenance workers felt like they were in a dream. It would be a lie to say they were not touched.
Especially compared with the cubs’ previous performance, they are now simply little angels!
Suddenly realizing something, everyone looked at the young man who was sleeping comfortably in the chair.
The cubs have changed so much, and the keepers must have made great contributions.
I never thought this incredibly pretty trainee breeder would be so amazing! It really is true that appearances are not to be judged!
Finally, all the maintenance workers divided up all the tea prepared by the cubs, and then left to rest and eat at Luo Shengfei's urging.
Although they were curious about why such a green area was opened up in the nursery, they left obediently after being warned by the base's intelligent computer that they did not have enough authority.
Luo Shengfei stayed to explain to Su Ci the precautions of the greenhouse.
"The greenhouse's materials are heat-resistant and cold-resistant, and are very strong. They can withstand all kinds of extreme weather, but they can't withstand monster attacks."
Su Ci was not worried about this, so he nodded calmly.
Luo Shengfei continued, "As for temperature and humidity control, it can be controlled by the intelligent brain. All of this has been automated..."
After finishing all the explanations, although his stomach was growling with hunger, Luo Shengfei was still reluctant to leave.
He looked at the star chain fruit flowers that covered the entire rope net. Although it had only been less than a day, he found that many flowers had begun to fall off and produce small fruits.
You can tell with your toes that there is something wrong with these plants!
Su Ci ignored him, but at A Yan's suggestion, he stood up and walked towards the two golden taro plants closest to the little spiritual buds, and directed the cubs to dig.
Hearing that the golden taro was ripe, the cubs didn't need to be urged at all. They took their shovels and started digging hard.
We have taro to eat tonight!
