Chapter 254 253. Affinity Variation
Zhou Qian was speechless.
He was prepared for Huaiyu to scream in fear, but the other party's head was full of "points, points, points"... He is worthy of being someone who can live alone in the Rose Corridor!
At this moment, he asked, "Do you still want this centipede?"
Huaiyu sighed: "Its death is so pitiful... Let's do it, what if Ketaro also eats meat?"
Zhou Qian: "...To be honest, I'm not sure there is meat in the centipede's body. Does it count as meat?"
This is a good question. Huaiyu doesn’t know either.
She watched Zhou Qian pick the centipedes into the backpack, and then she felt proud: You said you don't want to collect them!
So now——
Each of them held one of the two leaf triangular buckets, aimed at the bright red raspberries, and gently plucked them! Zhou Qian moved quickly, and when he turned his head, one of the raspberries touched his lips, and Huai Yu was looking at him expectantly.
Zhou Qian opened his mouth.
Zhou Qian chewed.
Zhou Qian spat out "Pooh" with his facial features distorted.
While he was gargling frantically, Huaiyu exclaimed, "Ah!" "I thought it was dirty and unpalatable... I was right!"
Then she handed over another one. Zhou Qian stared at her with an innocent look on her face: "This one is purified. Don't you want to try it?"
Zhou Qian: “…”
The trust between people has disappeared. He picked one and placed it in his palm, then raised his chin to Huaiyu: "Come on, purify it."
This time it was Huaiyu's turn to be speechless.
After a while, she reached out her hand and lightly touched the raspberry. Zhou Qian stared at it for a long time before carefully putting it into his mouth.
acid.
The fruit is three parts sour and seven parts sweet, and it is tender and juicy. If you hold it in your mouth with a little force, abundant juice will burst out, and your whole mouth will be filled with that intoxicating aroma.
He said nothing, but his hands moved quickly. The bright red raspberries on the large vines were quickly picked, and the two leaf buckets were piled high.
Zhou Qian still didn't give up. He took out a clean plastic bag from the basket, poured them into it, and started picking again.
Huaiyu looked at the communicator and saw that more than 10 minutes had passed just picking raspberries.
Who said this would waste time? The rest of the journey felt more and more like a mountain hike.
Huaiyu followed behind him, holding a leaf bucket in his hand, which was filled with raspberries piled high. He ate them as he walked, which was so comfortable.
Zhou Qian walked in front, discarding the leaf bucket and hanging a plastic bag around his waist. At this moment, he held a long stick in one hand and took a raspberry out of the plastic bag with the other hand from time to time to eat slowly...
In the end, Huaiyu reminded him, "Don't eat too much, or your teeth will get sour!"
Zhou Qian remained calm, temporarily stopped and put the plastic bag back into the backpack.
At this moment, the two were walking on a section of the plank road that had not been completely destroyed. Huai Yu looked at a tung tree growing under the plank road and couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Zhou Qian stood still silently, looking at the densely packed green fruits on the tung tree: "Can we eat it?"
Huaiyu nodded: "This tung oil can be squeezed out and mixed with rice. Mix tung oil with rice and add a little soy sauce... It won't kill you if you eat it all at once."
Zhou Qian immediately turned around and left: "It's too dangerous, don't look at it."
Huaiyu looked at his back and felt that if she hadn't said that last sentence, he might have started picking the fruits.
At this moment, the two had been climbing the mountain for nearly an hour.
Because many of the roads in the middle were not visible, it took some effort to go around. Huaiyu walked for so long that he was a little out of breath: "How about finding a place to rest?"
Climbing the mountain is really tiring.
Zhou Qian turned around and stared at her, saying incredulously: "Only one hour!"
Huaiyu: "...I used to be able to find food in less than an hour and bring it back."
But now, following Zhou Qian, there are more species than in spring, but I can't collect anything. Apart from picking raspberries, I just walk around the rest of the time. It's so boring!
Zhou Qian paused and pointed ahead: "I heard the sound of running water. There should be suitable shade for resting. But be careful and stay a little further away."
Huaiyu nodded quickly, but when he turned around, he saw the top of a tree and was surprised:
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Look, look! We really took a long detour! That's the big pine tree! The big pine tree that's been so kind to me!"
Zhou Qian subconsciously tensed up.
But Huaiyu had already started to go into the woods: "Let's go! If the big pine tree wanted to hurt me, it would have done so long ago. It won't be so kind to me. This forest is very well behaved. Don't worry, go ahead!"
The big pine tree is old after all, so if the other small trees around it are a little more obedient, it is also filial piety in the plant world! She walked ahead quickly, and Zhou Qian followed closely behind, but found that Huaiyu in front was not right——
Branches of all sizes stretched out in all directions, and the branches of the bushes below were also crisscrossed. However, Huaiyu walked all the way, not only did he not need to hold a long stick to push away obstacles at any time like he did, but he was inexplicably smooth, as if there was a strange force field around him, repelling all obstacles...
No, not exclusion.
These plants were consciously moving to the sides so as not to interfere with her route.
No wonder she said she walked faster alone before. It was probably not because they took a detour, but because she was unconsciously guided by the plants to the shortest route.
Is this the affinity variation of the wood-type ability?
He took a deep breath, then turned and saw that the branch in front of him that had just dodged the elm tree was rebounding heavily, about to hit his face! So he skillfully used a long stick to block it, and then lightly pushed it away.
I thought the direction of this mutation was too friendly.
Huaiyu knew nothing about it. She walked ahead and quickly passed through the woods and came to another familiar forest. Then she turned to Zhou Qian and said in surprise: "Look, these are all members of the same family as the big pine tree. I have picked pine pollen here before and earned a lot of contribution points!"
Especially since this score was provided by Wu Yue's mother, I don't know why, but I just feel happy. But the price is too cheap, I have to be bolder next time.
Zhou Qian looked at the seemingly endless green pine forest in front of him, and somehow a chill suddenly arose in his heart.
Before he could react, Huaiyu had already casually broken off a pine branch with a bunch of fluffy green pine needles scattered on it. "Look, they're all very good. I'm going to pick some of these pine needles and bring them back to make pine needle tea. Do you want to join me?"
Thinking of this, Huaiyu felt a little regretful - there were no other bigger bags in the backpack except the plastic bag.
If Zhou Qian agreed to let her bring a sack, they could collect the things in the sack now and put them here, and then take them back when they go down the mountain.
Anyway, no one else will come to this mountain.
Update one.
