Chapter 868: Strange Red Fruit, Eat with Caution
Lu Xingchen grabbed it and shoved it back into the pet bag with a "whoosh".
Meimei was stunned. It had originally rushed towards the fruit, but was frightened by Lu Xingchen's actions and slowed down a step.
Lu Xingchen had already arrived in front of the fruit and was examining it carefully.
Finally, she carefully pried open the crack in the stone and completely dug out the fruit's stem, examining it for a long time.
Meimei came over and asked, "What's wrong, Master?"
Lu Xingchen frowned: "We just passed this place, but I don't remember seeing this fruit. Why did it reappear after we came back?"
"Huh?" Meimei was taken aback and tilted her head. "Really?"
Lu Xingchen nodded: "Such an eye-catching fruit, there's no way we wouldn't have noticed it, and besides..."
She looked around. The area was lush with vegetation, and there were many small animals, with many birds chirping and flying around.
Lu Xingchen: "Such good fruit, and so many little birds, why aren't they eating it?"
"Oh right?" Meimei was taken aback.
That seems to make sense.
Not to mention birds, even lambs and chicks would come over and peck at this fruit and eat it. How come the fruit is so well preserved?
Lu Xingchen took out a glass box, carefully dug out the fruit's stem, and planned to put it in the box.
To everyone's surprise, as soon as the fruit was separated from the rootstock, it rolled onto the ground with a "gurgle," and the tender white rootstock quickly withered and turned dry.
The lush green leaves quickly withered and died.
A gentle breeze blew by, and with a "whoosh," the withered roots and leaves were scattered like dust.
In just a few seconds, without leaving a trace.
Only that one red fruit remained alone on the ground.
Lu Xingchen paused for a moment, then carefully picked up the red fruit and put it into the glass box.
Thank goodness, the fruit didn't disappear.
Lu Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief. By this time, Lanlan had already caused quite a ruckus in the pet bag.
Lu Xingchen released it.
As soon as she came out, Lanlan started throwing a tantrum: "Why, why, Xiao Lu, are you being unfair? Did you secretly give the fruit to the lamb? I won't do it! I won't do it!"
It turned around and said, "You shameless little lamb, you always have to be the first to get everything! Give it to me, give it to me!"
Meimei rolled her eyes: "You think I'm like you, eating everything?"
Lanlan: "You dare say you didn't eat?"
Meimei: "I didn't eat it, I didn't eat it. What good stuff could it be? Hehe, it might be a poisonous fruit!"
Lu Xingchen stopped Lanlan: "I'll keep it here for now. I'll give it to you after I find out what it is and make sure there's no problem."
Lanlan turned around and saw the red berries in the box. Her eyes welled up with tears: "Ah, give them to me!"
Lu Xingchen returned the fruit to his storage space without hesitation.
The baby seal lay on the beach, crying out, "Waaah, I can't eat this! I can't eat this!"
Lu Xingchen asked in surprise, "Why can't we eat it? Is it poisonous?"
The little seal held his head with his two paws in distress: "Woohoo, I don't know, I can't eat it!"
Lu Xingchen nodded: "Okay, the little seal is very powerful. If you say it can't be eaten, then it can't be eaten."
Lanlan immediately wilted.
Lu Xingchen took notice. This abnormal thing had an inexplicable attraction to Lan Lan. This was not good. She didn't dare to let Lan Lan out. What if it ate something random?
After thinking for a moment, Lu Xingchen secretly instructed Meimei to keep an eye on Lanlan and not let her eat anything indiscriminately.
Mee Mee whispered, "Master, actually, I want to eat too, but I always feel something is wrong, so I control myself."
I see?
Thus, Lu Xingchen dared not underestimate these red fruits.
She led Lanlan and Meimei to explore the island further, collecting some flowers, and strolled around until it got dark before returning to the raft.
This island isn't big, so we don't need to come tomorrow.
The raft continued its journey.
