The prompt for panel upgrade was so unexpected that Lu Lingxi was stunned for a moment before realizing that he had already collected a thousand points of plant hearts.
Last night, the willow ecological community was formed, and the panel rewarded 500 points of plant hearts. Lu Lingxi remembered that he had taken a special look at it at that time, and he was still more than 30 points away from the upgrade. Unknowingly, he had collected all the points today. Somewhat surprised, but more excited, Lu Lingxi stared at the white panel without blinking, wondering what changes would happen to the panel after the upgrade.
The system has been successfully upgraded, the mental scanning range has been extended by thirty meters, plant evolution has been enabled, and a pack of grape seeds has been randomly awarded.
As the prompt appeared, Lu Lingxi had a palm-sized black package in his hand. Having had this experience before, Lu Lingxi was not surprised at all that there was something in his hand. He shook his hand habitually, thinking that it was already September this year, and if he wanted to plant these grapes, he would have to wait until next year. After collecting the grape seeds rewarded by the panel, he focused on the first half of the panel prompt.
As usual, the prompt on the panel was concise and clear, without any explanation. Lu Lingxi stared at the prompt and read it again. He understood that the mental scan range was extended to 30 meters, but what was plant evolution? Since he needed to explore the functions of the panel himself, Lu Lingxi glanced around and picked a pot of spider plant hanging on the balcony. The mental scan spread out, and the spider plant appeared on the panel.
Plant name: Chlorophytum comosum
Plant requirements: None
Plant survival rate: Very high
Vegetative state: Primary peak
To trigger the plant evolution conditions, please select the plant evolution direction.
A new prompt appeared at the bottom of the panel, followed by different evolution options: 1) Absorb formaldehyde +20% 2) Release oxygen +20% Lu Lingxi was a little surprised. He stared at the two different options for a long time and hesitated to choose to release oxygen +20%. This pot of spider plant is kept at home, and there is not much formaldehyde to absorb. Compared with that, releasing oxygen +20% is more practical. After choosing the evolution direction of the spider plant, the spider plant in front of him did not seem to change. Lu Lingxi did not know whether it was considered a successful evolution. After thinking about it, Lu Lingxi found other green plants at home and looked at them one by one.
Tomatoes, no. Calla lilies, no. Instead, the pot of dianthus in the corner had the same options.
Plant name: Dianthus
Plant requirements: None
Plant survival rate: Very high
Vegetative state: Primary peak
Lu Lingxi looked at the state of the plants at the bottom and somewhat understood the evolutionary conditions of the panel selection. It seemed that a plant had to reach the primary peak required by the panel before the evolution selection would be triggered. But to his surprise, the evolution of the dianthus did not have two choices, but only one evolutionary direction, absorbing sulfur dioxide +20%. He did not hesitate this time and directly chose yes.
Wang Shuxiu cleaned up the kitchen and came out to see Lu Lingxi squatting in the corner, staring at the pot of dianthus in the corner. His cell phone had been ringing for a long time, but no one answered it. "What are you looking at? Didn't you hear your phone ringing?" Wang Shuxiu walked over and gave him a strange look.
Lu Lingxi came back to his senses and realized that his cell phone was ringing. Just as he was about to answer it, the ringing stopped.
Wang Shuxiu saw his dumbfounded look and couldn't help but stretched out her hand to pinch his face. "You haven't seen enough of this in the store every day? Go take a shower and clean up. I'm going to visit Sister Hu next door."
"Aunt Hu?" Lu Lingxi was a little surprised. Wang Shuxiu had an average relationship with the neighbor next door and seldom visited her. So why would she want to go and sit down at this time?
"Where is the plastic bag at home?" Wang Shuxiu was thinking about packing a few tomatoes and looking for the bag while explaining to Lu Lingxi, "Your Aunt Hu sold her house. I heard that the other party liked the environment of our community and offered a lot of money. Isn't your brother Hu getting married soon? He is short of money and it's a coincidence. We have been neighbors for more than ten years and he is moving away tomorrow. I have to go and see him anyway."
Lu Lingxi helped her find a plastic bag in the drawer. Wang Shuxiu picked up a dozen large tomatoes and muttered casually, "In the past two days, quite a few people have come to our community to inquire about houses. I have met several agents. They all say that the community environment is good. I don't know if our house is worth the money. But..." She changed the subject, "The environment of the community is really good now. I really don't want to sell it. I, your mother, will take root here. When I have money, I will buy you a house outside."
Lu Lingxi took a bite of a tomato and didn't care much about the house. "I think it's good here, and I don't want to be separated from my mother."
Wang Shuxiu laughed and slapped him on the head. "You only know how to make your mother happy. You won't say that when you get married."
Lu Lingxi: “…”
If Wang Shuxiu hadn't mentioned it, he hadn't thought about how to tell Wang Shuxiu about Yan Yue. He didn't have any idea about Wang Shuxiu's talk of getting a wife. He was used to being alone before, and Yan Yue was the first person he liked. But if he liked her, would Wang Shuxiu like her too? Would Wang Shuxiu mind having a male wife?
"What's wrong?" Wang Shuxiu saw that his face was not right and felt amused. "Are you shy?"
Lu Lingxi shook his head and urged Wang Shuxiu to go to Aunt Hu's house. It was almost nine o'clock. He was not good at changing the subject. Wang Shuxiu wanted to make a few jokes, but it was really late. While muttering to herself why the little bastard looked so stupid, she hurried out the door.
Lu Lingxi washed his hands and returned to his room with some trepidation, wondering whether Wang Shuxiu would mind having a male wife. His cell phone rang again, and he took a look. The caller ID showed that it was Yan Yue.
"Brother Yan."
"What were you doing just now? No one answered the phone?" Yan Yue's voice on the other end of the phone was low and magnetic, and very pleasant to hear.
Lu Lingxi took off his shoes and sat cross-legged on the bed. After thinking for a while, he replied, "I'm watering the tomatoes." Yan Yue never mentioned the changes in the flower garden. Lu Lingxi didn't know if Yan Yue had noticed anything. He hesitated whether to tell Yan Yue about the panel. Yan Yue was different from Wang Shuxiu. Wang Shuxiu didn't worry about the micro-gardening, but Yan Yue was with him every day. The changes in the flower garden and the courtyard, as well as the future evolution of plants, these things could not be concealed. Besides... Lu Lingxi didn't want to lie to Yan Yue. But he didn't know how to say it. If he just said that he had a magical panel on him, would Yan Yue think he was lying to him? Lu Lingxi hesitated for a long time, but decided to keep it a secret for the time being.
Hearing about watering, Yan Yue laughed. He knew this habit of Lu Lingxi. "Are you tired? I'll help you water the plants in the future. I can do all the work in the yard." Yan Yue said softly. Three months ago, he would never have thought that one day he would use his ability to work to please someone.
Sure enough, Lu Lingxi laughed, "Brother Yan, what are you doing? We don't live together."
Yan Yue couldn't help but coaxed, "Xiao Xi, do you want to live with me?"
Lu Lingxi was stunned for a moment, and somehow he thought of the male wife. He said hesitantly: "Brother Yan, are you going to tell mom about us? But I don't know if mom would mind having a male wife?"
Lu Lingxi said this abruptly, but Yan Yue understood what he meant at once. He remembered what the boy said in the morning that he was not lying to him, but wanted to try to be with him, and his heart softened instantly. The boy might not understand his feelings, but his attitude was not perfunctory, but he was seriously considering the future. Even when he heard the somewhat awkward word "male wife", Yan Yue felt indescribably happy. He didn't want to burden Lu Lingxi. These were things he had to consider and solve. As long as Lu Lingxi was happy, that was enough.
"Don't worry, Xiaoxi. Leave these matters to Brother Yan. Trust me."
"Okay." Lu Lingxi said obediently.
Yan Yue smiled silently and decided to tell Lu Lingxi in advance, "Xiaoxi, I bought the house next door to yours and will move there soon. Then we can live together."
"Brother Yan, did you buy Aunt Hu's house?" Lu Lingxi was surprised.
Yan Yue nodded, and then thought that he couldn't see it, so he hummed. Lu Lingxi thought of something and said excitedly: "Then Brother Yan, can we open up the small courtyard behind?"
"Of course." The house Yan Yue bought was next to Lu Lingxi's house, belonging to the second door of Building No. 3, and the small courtyard behind it was connected to Lu Lingxi's courtyard. Yan Yue's idea was to break through the fence between the two houses, so that he and Lu Lingxi would not only meet conveniently, but also live together to some extent.
"Can I grow grapes in the yard?" Lu Lingxi was still struggling with how to allocate the ratio of tomatoes and grapes next year, when Yan Yue took advantage of his sleepiness and handed him a pillow.
"Of course." Yan Yue said patiently, "Xiaoxi can plant whatever she wants."
Lu Lingxi was still excited about this until he went to bed at night. Thinking carefully, being with Brother Yan every day seemed to make him happier than growing more grapes. Lu Lingxi turned over in the quilt, scratched Dahei's chin at the head of the bed, and whispered, "Good night."
Dahei called out, as if he was also saying good night.
After waking up, Lu Lingxi didn't bother to wash his face and went straight to the spider plant and dianthus. After he chose the plants to evolve last night, the spider plant and dianthus had not changed. He didn't know what they would become. Was the evolution last night considered successful?
Lu Lingxi was a little nervous and excited, but when he saw the spider plant and the dianthus, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. From the outside, the two were no different from before. The mental scan spread out, and the image of the spider plant appeared on the white panel.
Plant name: Chlorophytum comosum
Plant requirements: None
Plant survival rate: Very high
Plant evolution direction: release oxygen +20%
After watching till the end, he finally felt relieved. After sweeping the spider plants, he swept the dianthus again, and it also evolved successfully. Lu Lingxi became interested, and planned to go to the store today to evolve all the green plants that can be evolved in the micro-gardening. He would go to the flower garden to try in the evening, and it would be great if the big willow tree at the entrance of the village could also evolve. I don't know what the evolutionary direction of other plants is? Thinking about the various possibilities of plant evolution, Lu Lingxi washed his face and brushed his teeth with full motivation, and prepared to go to the store right away.
Wang Shuxiu came back from the morning market with a bag of eggplants. Seeing him get up, she said, "Remember to talk to Yan Yue about dinner tonight."
Lu Lingxi: “…”
He was so focused on going to the flower garden that he almost forgot about it.
