Chapter 287 The Bad Little Bird The end of summer is coming soon. …
The end of summer is coming soon.
When the temperature of the entire Forbidden Stone Mountains reaches its highest point, the end of summer arrives quietly. The fruits on the plum trees are ripe. The green fruits turn completely red, with deep and shallow blood spots on the skin. The whole fruit exudes a rich aroma.
He Qi stood under the plum tree and looked at the fruit. The strange power all over the fruit was enough to prove that Ye Lu's guess was correct. It was indeed a blood-grudge-level seed.
Compared to the ripe and fragrant fruits, the plum tree looks much older. Many of its leaves have fallen off, and many branches on the crown have turned yellow and bare. Only the branch that bears the fruit still has some green.
"Seventh Uncle, you are responsible for planting these seeds, so you should pick them too." Ye Lu reminded.
"Okay!" He Qi finally reacted and answered hurriedly. He walked forward cautiously, stretched out his hand and carefully plucked the fruit from the branch. After picking it, he put it in the palm of his hand. His whole body felt happier.
"Remember to peel the skin before planting it." Helan reminded.
Logically, this seed should be grown into a seedling first, but the land that had been prepared in front of the He family's doorstep was very fertile and had enough strange power. The He family had already used a lot of strange flesh and blood to nourish it early on. As long as the fertility was sufficient, it didn't matter whether the seed was grown into a seedling or not.
The vitality of the strange plant is much stronger than that of ordinary fruit trees.
"Yes, yes." He Qi listened to He Lan's words and came to the door of He's house and responded repeatedly. There was already a large group of people waiting at the door of He's house. There was a big pit of about one or two meters at the door. The whole door was about seven or eight meters on each side, almost a small orchard.
It is called the He family, but in fact it is the He family?
A dozen or so families each allocated a piece of land, which almost formed the small orchard that you see now.
When He Qiyi came back, holding the seeds in his hands, he could not see anyone waiting around. All he could see was a large pit dug not far away. The soil in the pit was dark black, and even from such a distance he could see a smell of oil in the soil.
He Qi carefully placed the seeds into the hole, and then covered the hole with soil with his hands. Then he stood up and asked, "Where's the water?"
Someone immediately responded: "Here, it's here!"
After saying that, a young man with slightly raised eyebrows took out a clay pot filled with water and handed it to He Qi. He Qi took the pottery pot and poured the water carefully on the soil, soaking the soil.
He Qi withdrew his hand, listened attentively, and then seemed to discover something. He relaxed and said, "Okay, I can feel the seeds stirring. I think they will sprout soon."
The time of late summer is very good, it is enough for the seeds to germinate. When the seeds grow out, in winter, the seeds should be able to withstand the cold of winter and survive the winter safely, and the plants can grow more steadily.
"Huh!" When the people around heard He Qi's words, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
"Uncle, this seed is really a blood-grudge-level weird plant!" Before Uncle He Qi went out, some kids came up to him and said impatiently. It's not that they didn't believe that this seed was a blood-grudge-level weird plant, they were just too excited and wanted to talk.
Not to mention them, all the adults in the He clan have been very excited these days. Although it has been agreed that half of the output of this strange plant will go to the village and the other half will go to He Qi, this strange plant can be planted in front of the He family's doorstep. This alone makes many people happy.
This kind of atmosphere has been going on for many days. The atmosphere among the He clan has been much more exciting than usual these days.
"Okay, now that we've finished looking at the weird plants, let's go about our own business. It's the end of summer, when weird things are still active. It's better to catch some weird flesh and blood to feed the weird plants than to stay here and watch." He Si stood in front of He Qi and said to the people in the clan with an expressionless face.
He Qi was also standing in front of the strange plant seeds. At the moment, his words were not as effective as his brother's.
He Si is very influential in the clan, and many people in the clan respect him. Not to mention that his expressionless face at this moment is enough to calm everyone down and stop getting too excited.
He Si saw everyone's expressions and nodded contentedly. Fortunately, he was not overwhelmed by the strange plant. He continued, "This strange plant is still a treasure in the village. Everyone should be clear about this."
"The strange plant can be planted in front of the He family's doorstep not for any other reason, but because of various considerations and the traditional rules of the village. Don't be overwhelmed by the strange plant when you go out." The planting of strange plants depends more on the will of the discoverer, and the He villagers always listen to the discoverer's ideas. In fact, He Si was a little wrong. If the strange plant really needs to be divided, the discoverer and the villagers should each get half. It's just that He Si didn't want the He family to be proud and complacent, so his words were also meant as a warning.
"The seeds of the strange plant have not sprouted yet. He Qi has been guarding it during this period. During this period, other people will take over the protection according to the order that He Lan had discussed with everyone long ago." He Si spoke again.
As soon as He Si finished speaking, Helan next to him came out and nodded to everyone. As the captain of the guard, Helan was very powerful and had a high status in the clan.
"yes."
"That makes sense."
"I've finished looking. I'm going to the guard team too." The young man who first handed He Qi the pottery jar filled with water stretched his arms up, then said lazily, "Anyway, it will take a long time for the flowers to bloom and bear fruit. We'll have plenty of time to look at them later."
He was the first one to leave in a cool manner.
Some people nearby also reacted and quickly started doing their own things. Some people with sharp eyes saw that He Tu probably saw He Lan up there and ran away impatiently.
"Is there anyone who wants to go to the mountains? We have planted a strange plant at the gate of our He family, but don't forget that there are two more strange plants in the ancestral hall. Don't let the strange plants mistakenly think that we are fickle. It would be okay to hunt more strange flesh and blood and give them to the strange plants." There were also people and their families who were currently on rotation at home. They knew that there would be no need for so many people to stay during the germination period of the strange plant seeds, so they directly called people to work.
As soon as these words were spoken, many people in the crowd responded.
"I."
"Add me in."
"Let's go together. Let's go together."
"I'm fine, are you guys still missing someone fast? I'm pretty good at agility, add me in."
Another group of people? Team up to go to the mountains to hunt weird things.
The people who were surrounding the strange plant seed at the gate of the He family left in groups of two or three. In the end, only a few people were left, and Ye Lu also spoke up to say goodbye.
"Fourth uncle, seventh uncle, third aunt, there is no problem with this strange plant, I will go up the mountain first." Ye Lu bowed and said, "There are still people waiting on the mountain."
The He siblings also knew that their nephew had been down the mountain for quite some time and must be missing Guizhi and his brothers. They understood and said directly, "Don't worry, go up the mountain. If there is anything, we can send someone to tell you."
Ye Lu stepped forward to take another look at the pit with the seeds and confirmed that there was no problem. The seeds in the pit were also very active. He had sensed this with the talent of the Son of Taishan God, and there was definitely no problem. As long as this strange plant did not encounter a catastrophe such as being eaten by a strange creature or attacked by a strange plant, it would most likely grow. Only then did he feel relieved and went up the mountain.
He had been down from the mountain for so long, and he didn't know if Ah Xi missed him on the mountain. Ye Lu went up the mountain with a smile on his face, and couldn't help but look forward to it in his heart.
As soon as Ye Lu returned to Chongshan, he did not go to the two-story building halfway up the mountain. He was like every parent who had been away from home for a long time and couldn't wait to see his furry children. He hurried to the kindergarten teacher on the top of the mountain to pick up his naughty child.
As soon as he reached the top of the mountain, Ye Lu felt Qingsong's spiritual consciousness coming towards him.
The mood in Qingsong's consciousness was very bad, and he seemed to be disgusted. Seeing that his companion didn't look happy, he threw something over and said, "Take this bird away quickly."
Ye Lu reflexively caught the fiery red little figure that was thrown to him and felt the scorching temperature in his hands. He then looked at Qingsong's spiritual consciousness that was emitting a cold aura on the opposite side. For some reason, he suddenly felt a sense of guilt in his heart.
Maybe it was because the temperature of the bird in his hand was too hot, or maybe the color of the little bird in his hand was much redder than he had imagined.
What's more important is that the fearless little bird Anxi actually lay obediently in his hands without any resistance. God knows, Qingsong just threw him over. If it were in the past, the little bird Axi would have jumped out immediately and started to strike with anger.
Now nothing has moved, which only proves one thing: this little bird is very guilty.
I feel guilty and unreasonable.
Ye Lu was just like every parent who knew that his child had made a mistake. When facing the teacher, he felt very guilty, as if he was the one who made the mistake.
Ye Lu couldn't help but sound a little humble when he spoke. God knows, he hasn't spoken like this for a long time. Even in the Star Network, others are more humble, but people have to bow their heads under the eaves. He can only speak humbly: "Qingsong, what happened? Did Ah Xi do something to make you angry? Calm down. He is still young and his brain is not fully developed. It's not his own idea to make mistakes. Some cubs just can't control their instincts."
Ye Lu never thought that one day he would say such words.
In his previous life, he was the kind of person who couldn't help but feel disgusted when he heard such words.
Qingsong's tone was still very cold, and he didn't take his companion's words seriously at all. He said, "Fortunately, it is still in its infancy. If it were an adult, it would not be in your hands but hanging on my tree canopy."
The green pine is very lively.
It finally understood why its original inherited memory had shown such disdain for the little birds of the Ancestral Phoenix lineage. Even though the little birds were very much in line with its aesthetic taste, its past self had never said that it wanted to raise these little birds, so these little birds should not have been raised.
Too bad, really? Too bad!!
How could there be such a bad little bird in the world? Qingsong couldn't figure it out.
This little bird actually burns the crowns of trees. It chases after flowers and plants and plucks their flowers. It also plucks the feathers of passing small animals.
The baby grass that had been staying under the pine tree was scared by the little bird and hid away. The little bird obviously didn't like to eat grass, but when it found that the baby grass was afraid of it, it pretended to move closer, then suddenly opened its beak, pretending to eat the grass.
How could a timid baby Zhicao not be afraid? !
Qingsong glared at his companion angrily, and tried his best to send him everything he had encountered in the past few days through his spiritual consciousness.
"..." Ye Lu, of course Ye Lu sensed it, Qingsong almost poured all the things into his head, this little bird teased cats and dogs, and it would kick any dog that passed by.
Ye Lu could only put on a smiling face and endure the scolding, while holding the little Ah Xi bird pretending to be dead in his hand, and at the same time looking at the mess on the ground under the green pine tree, feeling guilty, he couldn't imagine how a little bird could have caused all that.
"I will teach it well. These strange beads are just my apology. When the next caravan comes, I will also find some resources suitable for the baby grass." Ye Lu had no choice. Who asked him to raise a cub? He could only offer to make amends for the little bird. While making the promise, he handed out a wooden box.
After Qingsong heard what Ye Lu said, he took the wooden box and slowly calmed down, but he still snorted coldly.
The main thing is that Qingsong also knows that this fiery red little bird really can't control its instincts. Most of the strange beasts in the world are like this when they are young, and even dogs despise them.
The Golden Winged Dapeng lineage is naturally more irritable and particularly wicked. Qingsong cannot possibly bother with a kid who can't control his instincts, so he would just vent his anger on his companion.
