"Rest here for half an hour, then continue on our way. We will return at two o'clock in the afternoon," Sha Qilin gave the order.
Following his words, the experts and professors who had long since given up on holding on quickly sat down on the ground, gasping for breath and taking a sip of water.
Su Nian is still young and pays attention to exercise and health preservation. His physical strength is much stronger than those experts and professors.
However, Su Nian also sat down and fiddled with the plant specimens he had picked.
After the photo incident in the morning, Sha Qilin felt itchy in his heart, but he didn't dare to get close to her and show his affection.
Rest time also includes eating time. Everyone is provided with dry food and drinking water, and everyone takes them out and chews them silently.
Sha Qilin watched from the side, but Su Nian did not eat anything. After sorting out all the plants, she carefully put all these things into her backpack, then picked up the water bottle and drank two sips of water.
Sha Qilin sighed slightly and looked at his watch. The break time he mentioned was almost up, but Su Nian hadn't eaten yet. Sha Qilin pretended that he had forgotten the time and extended the break for another five minutes.
As they continued to move forward, Su Nian took the initiative to come to Sha Qilin's side, which made the latter surprised and happy, but he did not dare to speak rashly, and could only look at Su Nian with an inquiring look.
"Team Leader Sha," Su Nian inadvertently changed the way he addressed Sha Qilin, from his original nickname Qilin to Team Leader Sha.
This sound made Sha Qilin sigh again.
"I discovered a plant that can effectively chelate heavy metals. However, the growth cycle of this plant is relatively long. It takes about three months from sowing to its growth," Su Nian went to find Sha Qilin just to report his discovery.
"Three months?" Sha Qilin frowned. It was indeed a long time, but if it could solve the problem once and for all, it would be a good method.
Looking at the two people in front of him talking intimately, Liu Xiping's expression became sinister.
Liu Xiping no longer had time to analyze what Su Nian was saying to Sha Qilin, or how she had caught Sha Qilin's attention.
Liu Xiping's heart was filled with jealousy.
Seeing that the road ahead was getting narrower and narrower, Liu Xiping suddenly came up with an idea. He took a few quick steps, walked past Su Nian and Sha Qilin, and overtook them.
Su Nian and Sha Qilin were discussing this orchid plant and didn't notice Liu Xiping's little action at all.
"This plant absorbs a lot of water. If it can be planted on a large scale along the riverbank, its pollen will float into the river. After the pollen combines with heavy metal ions, it will settle at the bottom of the river and will have no effect on the human body!"
Su Nian laid out his plan in full.
Sha Qilin frowned and carefully weighed the pros and cons of this plan.
At this moment, Liu Xiping, who was walking in front of Su Nian, suddenly staggered, tilted his body to the side, and naturally pulled the green vine above his head.
After hearing some creaking sounds, everyone looked up and saw a piece of bluestone on top of Su Nianti's head.
The bluestone was originally fixed halfway up the mountain by green vines. When Liu Xiping pulled it, the bluestone was about to fall down. If it fell, Su Nian, who was walking below, would be the first to be hit.
When Sha Qilin saw this scene, his pupils suddenly shrank. He didn't care about anything else. He reached out and pulled Su Nian into his arms while backing away.
"Be careful, Team Leader Sha!"
"Oops, the rock fell!"
"Oops, they fell into the river!"
