Chapter 184 183. Looks a bit familiar
Huaiyu was anxious, and took the fat ginseng and put it on the ground: "Go, find a place to grow."
Then she stopped the tense Zhou Qian and said, "There can't be any mutant plants in my vegetable garden! I went in to pick them yesterday—"
oh.
She slowly loosened her grip again.
Because there really is a plant with a slightly mutated appearance.
That's it...
She smiled sweetly and said, "Brother Zhou Qian, I know you are anxious, but don't be anxious yet."
"There is indeed a vegetable in my garden that looks a little different, but it is a good vegetable. It can't talk, it can't run, and it won't attack people."
"It's just that he looks a little rough. How about I take you to have a look?"
Zhou Qian was skeptical.
A moment later——
"You call this - a little rough?"
Pulling aside the tall weeds and looking at the vegetable field in the middle, I saw a cowpea vine with a diameter of about 60 cm coiled around behind the dense bean and cucumber racks, winding like a giant python and surrounding the entire vegetable field.
Judging from the appearance, it is at least 40 meters long.
Although its branches are thick, the leaves and lavender flowers on them are exactly the same as those of ordinary cowpeas in color and size.
It was as if the mutation simply amplified its yield, so that one bean could be eaten for a year.
Zhou Qian took a deep breath and looked at Huai Yu again: "So, the cowpeas you gave me to eat during this period were picked from here?"
Huaiyu nodded, very sincerely: "The cowpea needs to be tested by the detector. I have sold it before. It's normal."
This kind of normal is the most abnormal.
Zhou Qian had just been discharged from the hospital, and the biomaterial on his legs had integrated quite well. Logically, he should be in high spirits now.
But at this moment I feel powerless.
He let out a long sigh, and subconsciously wanted to hold on to something to support his precarious beliefs, but the touch under his hands didn't feel right.
Looking sideways, he saw a chili tree as tall as his chest standing next to him, with the stem about two or three centimeters in diameter.
There are many green and plump peppers hanging on it, which look very firm and lively.
But, can normal peppers grow like this in May? And the eggplant in front has also grown into a small tree of this size.
Looking at Huaiyu beside her, she didn't seem to think it was abnormal that there was an exceptional vegetable tree in each vegetable plot! Instead, she proudly showed it to Zhou Qian: "Look, only this cowpea is growing a little bit hard, the others are all good."
"Didn't you say that the mutation direction of my wood-type ability might be to promote growth? This is what it looks like after promotion. Don't other wood-type abilities grow crops in this way?"
She acted as if it was a matter of course, and the little bit of guilt she had left disappeared instantly when Zhou Qian gave up questioning the cowpea python.
At this moment, he was patrolling the vegetable fields with his men, and he was inexplicably proud when he spoke.
"I also planted yams, sweet potatoes, peanuts, and soybeans...Brother Zhou Qian, if you need vegetable seedlings, you can dig them from me."
Zhou Qian pinched the bridge of his nose, then raised his hand to make a stop gesture: "Thank you for your kindness, but no, I'll go to the market to buy vegetable seedlings."
Compared with Huaiyu's home and vegetable garden close to the Rose Corridor, since his house can be built, it will be indispensable for entertaining friends in the future.
He didn't want the other person to come to his house, so he had to set up a ladder and climb up the two-meter-high pepper tree to pick vegetables before he could entertain them.
Looking at Huaiyu again, even though she swore that her vegetables were normal, it was impossible for them to grow to one or two meters high...
But Zhou Qian no longer intended to believe her.
When he saw Huaiyu dig out fifteen or sixteen melon-sized yellow potatoes from under a potato plant, his whole body began to shake.
"Forget it." I had just recovered from a serious illness and mentally could not accept this kind of shock yet. I decided to go back and rest first.
He turned around and was about to leave, but Huaiyu stopped him again: "Um, Brother Zhou Qian, if you have nothing to do, can you... do me a favor?"
Some of her tanks have not yet been put in their designated locations.
Zhou Qian nodded helplessly: "Okay, I'll move it for you."
Compared with the garrison troops, their defense forces do not have special powers, but their physical fitness is far beyond that of ordinary people. Carrying a few pottery jars is no problem at all.
But Zhou Qian swore that their strength was only physical and had no effect on the spirit.
Now, following the stuttering ginseng that looks like a radish and the cowpea that coils like a giant python, the vegetables that grow into small trees...
Is the strange beetle in front of me, about 40 to 50 centimeters tall, with colorful black flashes on its shell, really not an illusion? He looked at the most suspicious Rose Corridor, and his spirit was in danger at the moment.
I even saw the beetle staggeringly holding a red ball, walking slowly towards the shack in front of Huai Yu's house.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Has the world changed again after the catastrophe? Zhou Qian was silent, and at the same time, in his trance, he seemed to have seen the quail egg-sized meatballs again.
But my impression is that it is a mixed color, not as bright as the big red ball held by the beetle's two front paws.
Huaiyu said, "Ah!" "Ketaro, you're here so early today?"
Usually, Kataro would choose a place and collect the balls there until night before moving them back.
It's only morning now.
As soon as I asked, I saw Kataro flapping his wings and nodding his two antennae.
She couldn't speak, but Huaiyu could understand what she meant. At this moment, she looked at the dark sky and felt the gradually cool breeze.
"Yeah, it's raining today."
After saying that, he looked at Zhou Qian: "I'm sorry, Brother Zhou Qian, I didn't expect Ketaro to come back so early, were you scared?"
I stood there blankly for quite a while.
After a while, Zhou Qian took a deep breath and asked, "Did you raise this too?"
Huaiyu nodded - although it was only temporary, it was still a temporary measure.
"What's wrong? Kataro has a good temper, don't be nervous, Brother Zhou Qian."
Zhou Qian looked at Huai Yu, not knowing for a moment whether she was playing dumb and avoiding the main point.
After all, the focus of all this is not whether the plants and animals have mutated, nor whether the beetles can form balls, but Huaiyu herself! She is the one who should protect herself the most!
She has wood-related abilities, which everyone knows are very weak. The direction of her mutation is [Plant Affinity], which is obviously closely related to her being able to live peacefully in the Rose Corridor.
A little girl without any background, living here alone, didn't even hide these secrets from him...
Zhou Qian sighed deeply.
at the same time--
"That red ball looks familiar - is that where the mutant beetle got it from?"
Zhou Qian pondered subconsciously.
Update 2, good night. Writing furiously next door.
