Xia Lunong was so shocked by the facts that he shut himself off.

He squatted at home and didn't want to go out

at all. Kong Zhi looked at him, and suddenly reached out and picked him up with his legs bent, and carried him out like a potted plant.

Xia Lunong was caught off guard and his whole body left the ground. His face turned pale in an instant. He stretched out his hands and grabbed Kong Zhi's clothes, wrinkling his clothes. "Put me down, I will walk by myself."

Kong Zhi said, "It's just a few steps."

Kong Zhi carried him outside and settled him down, then went back to the house to get the bamboo.

Xia Lunong felt his eyes hurt every time he looked at the bamboo. He couldn't understand why he actually planted this thing himself.

He turned his head away listlessly and didn't look at the bamboo.

Kong Zhi took out a machete and said to him, "I'm going to start chopping bamboo."

Xia Lunong didn't answer, so he waited for her to speak, and Xia Lunong could only respond indifferently.

Kong Zhi started chopping from the bottom.

He looked at the bamboo, then used the knife to chop it from the middle of the lower section. Unexpectedly, as soon as he chopped it open, a large splash of water fell out of the bamboo, soaking the mud under his feet and half of his pants.

This was not the end. The water in the bamboo joints seemed endless, leaking down, dripping, and didn't even have time to seep into the mud, accumulating into a small puddle on the mud.

No matter how slow Xia Lunong was, he could tell that something was wrong. He stood up and looked at the pool of water in shock, then looked at Kong Zhi, "Did you just break a small bamboo node? Or did you break the whole bamboo? How could there be so much water?!"

Kong Zhi handed the bamboo to him to see.

Xia Lunong didn't care about being autistic at all, and quickly took the bamboo, holding it with both hands, and looked up from below.

The bamboo was fine, except for the bottom bamboo node that was cut open, the rest was intact.

It seemed that the water on the ground was stored in a bamboo node.

Xia Lunong looked at the bamboo in his hand.

The bamboo was only as thick as a bowl, and the bamboo node was about 20 centimeters. It didn't look like it could store so much water.

He blinked his eyes vigorously. Because he didn't sleep well, his whole brain was confused and buzzing. He couldn't think of anything, and he couldn't think about what was going on.

He shook his head, but still couldn't figure it out. He had to look at Kong Zhi next to him for help.

Kong Zhi spread his hands and said, "I don't know what's going on either."

Xia Lunong said, "Then continue to break the remaining bamboo joints?"

Kong Zhi took the bamboo back and said to him, "I'll go get a bucket from inside."

Xia Lunong nodded blankly.

Kong Zhi put the bamboo on the ground and went back to the house to get a bucket.

He just came out when Xia Huoqu and Yan Xinian came back.

Xia Huoqu asked, "Why did you take out the bucket? Why is there so much water on the ground? What did you do just now?"

"I just split a bamboo." Xia Lunong pointed to the ground and said blankly, "It seems that a bamboo joint can hold so much water."

Xia Huoqu looked at him and asked, "Are you feeling better now?"

As soon as Xia Lunong came back yesterday afternoon, he fell into a state of isolation, silent and silent.

His family accommodated him and didn't say anything. They quickly finished their meal and let him go to rest.

Xia Lunong nodded, still in shock, "This bamboo seems unusual."

"What's unusual?" Xia Huoqu took a look and asked, "Is it dangerous?"

Kong Zhi weighed the bamboo in his hand, "It's an ordinary bamboo, it's hard to imagine that it's dangerous."

Yan Xinian said, "How about I do it, you guys stand back a little, what should I do with this bamboo? Just put it in the bucket and break it open?"

Kong Zhi said, "Let me do it, I'm more skilled."

Kong Zhi didn't waste any words after he finished speaking, he put the bamboo in the bucket and stood it up, and chopped it down with a hatchet, cutting off one of the bamboo joints directly.

The lower half of the bamboo fell into the bucket, making a "dong" sound, and then a "bang", the water in the bamboo tube suddenly fell into the bucket, directly falling into most of the bucket.

Half a bucket of water, at least more than 20 kilograms, it doesn't seem like a small bamboo tube can hold it.

When they took the bamboo, they didn't feel how heavy it was. It was hard to imagine that it could hold so much water.

Three people, six pairs of eyes looked at Xia Lunong together.

Kong Zhi asked: "What were you thinking about when you planted the bamboo yesterday?"

"I didn't think about anything, just like usual." Xia Lunong took the bamboo and looked at it carefully, feeling even more confused.

Xia Huo said: "Don't worry, let's study it slowly. Sit for a while, I'll make you a cup of honey water." Xia

Lunong nodded, her mind was in a mess, trying hard to recall what she was thinking about when she planted the bamboo yesterday.

Xia Lunong sat there, holding the bamboo and thinking carefully for most of the day.

After Xia Huoqu brought the honey water, he drank it in one gulp and said, "I really didn't think about anything yesterday. It was just like usual. I hoped that the bamboo would grow faster and produce more fruits."

Xia Huoqu said, "Think about it carefully. There must be something wrong, otherwise it wouldn't be the result now."

Xia Huoqu glanced at the bamboo, "The bamboo has no fruits, but the bamboo joints store so much water. Were you thinking about something related to water?"

"No." Xia Lunong shook her head to deny it, but quickly remembered, "I didn't think about anything related to water, but I was distracted yesterday afternoon. At that time, I was thinking, if we could bring more things when we go out, it would be great."

Xia Huoqu asked, "Is that it?"

Xia Lunong became more and more certain the more she thought about it, and nodded, "Yes, I was just a little distracted yesterday, thinking that it would be great if I could bring more things out."

The four people's eyes fell on the bamboo again.

Yan Xinian asked, "You think, after Xiao Nong thought that, could bamboo be related to storage? Space power?"

Xia Lunong was stunned and was the first to speak, "There are space powers and the like? Isn't that too unscientific?"

Yan Xinian said, "Yes. There are all kinds of things in the world. Your power is not that scientific."

Yan Xinian looked at the bamboo and said, "The more I look at it, the more I feel that it has some characteristics of space power. Look, a small bamboo joint can store so much water, and when I picked it up, I didn't feel any change in weight. If this is not a typical space power, then what is it?"

Xia Lunong was dumbfounded, "Isn't my power a planting power? How can it be related to space?"

Xia Huoqu said thoughtfully, "Maybe we all guessed wrong before. Your power is not a planting power, but something else."

Xia Lunong murmured, "If it's not a planting power, then what is it? Is it a wish? Whatever I want it to do, it can do it?"

He finished speaking with a ridiculous look on his face.

It felt impossible for this to happen.

Whose power is to make wishes come true? He is not a magic lamp, how can he encounter all the good things in the world?

Yan Xinian said: "I think both are related. It is the ability to plant and it can make wishes come true? What do you want that can only be grown by yourself?"

Xia Lunong felt a little dizzy. He held his forehead and said slowly: "I have to slow down."

"Slow down." Xia Huo said, "I will get two more buckets to see how much water this bamboo can store. When all the bamboo joints are split, we will probably know the truth." Xia

Lunong sat in a chair in a daze, watching his brother and others start to split the bamboo.

There were two bamboos in total, and they finally filled nine buckets of water.

All this water can be drunk. Except for the fragrance of bamboo, it is no different from mineral water.

Xia Huoqu said, "It has been confirmed that there are indeed small spaces inside these bamboos."

Xia Lunong looked at the messy buckets in the yard, then looked at his hands, and still found it hard to imagine how all this happened.

Kong Zhi said, "Don't think about it if you can't figure it out. Let's slowly explore it, and one day we will be able to figure it out."

Xia Huoqu touched his brother's head, "Didn't you sleep well last night? Go back and sleep for a while, maybe you will feel something in your heart after you wake up."

Xia Lunong nodded, stood up like a wandering soul, and dragged his feet back to the room to sleep.

He thought he would not be able to sleep, but he fell asleep as soon as he touched the bed with his messy mind, and didn't even have time to cover himself with the quilt. Kong Zhi came in from behind and tucked the quilt in for him.

He slept until about four in the afternoon.

When he woke up, the groggy feeling was almost gone.

He also came back to his senses from the huge shock.

He ran out and saw Kong Zhi tidying up the ropes in the living room, and asked: "Where are my brother and the others? Are they out again?"

Kong Zhi: "Yeah."

Xia Lunong muttered, "Why are they inseparable? They have to go out together to do everything, even more annoying than us."

Kong Zhi said: "The degree should be about the same."

"Ah?" Xia Lunong blinked, "What do you mean by about the same?" "

The degree of annoying should be about the same." Kong Zhi walked over, touched his head, and asked: "Feeling better?"

"Much better, I feel like my thinking ability has finally returned." Xia Lunong said, "I think you are right, my ability may not be a pure planting ability. If it is a pure planting ability, I won't be able to grow bamboo that can absorb water."

Kong Zhi nodded in agreement, "It's obvious."

Xia Lunong sat down on the sofa, "I don't think I have the ability to make my wishes come true, and I can't make plants grow whatever I want."

Kong Zhi said, "Then what is the source of the bamboo's spatial ability?"

Xia Lunong paused, organized her words and said, "I think "I think there are two reasons why the bamboo became like this yesterday."

Xia Lunong's expression was very serious, "First, my ability can indeed promote the growth of plants in different directions according to my wishes. For example, sometimes I want roots, sometimes I want leaves, and sometimes I want fruits. Generally, I can grow whatever I want."

Kong Zhi nodded, "Indeed, what about the second point?"

Xia Lunong said, "The second point is that plants have the potential to mutate. My ability only accelerates and amplifies this mutation."

Kong Zhi raised his head and motioned for him to be more specific.

Xia Lunong said, "You see, ordinary bamboo can absorb moisture from the soil and store it in the bamboo joints, so when I need water, I can plant bamboo to store water. This just amplifies the amount of water storage, and the bamboo has not actually mutated."

Kong Zhi vaguely understood what he was saying, "So when you want bamboo to have storage capabilities, use superpowers to activate it, and after it mutates, it will have spatial superpowers?"

Xia Lunong nodded quickly, "Yes, that's what I think, and I don't know if this idea makes sense, We will know after we do another experiment in two days."

Kong Zhi said: "It is a very useful and interesting conclusion."

Xia Lunong said: "Whether this conclusion is true or not, we have to wait until we finish the experiment. But I think this is probably the truth."

Kong Zhi said: "How much of your ability do you have left now?"

Xia Lunong shook her head, "I used it too thoroughly yesterday, and now I can't recover. I estimate that I have to wait until tomorrow to continue using it."

Kong Zhi said: "Then you take a rest, they will come to experiment tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

"Okay." Xia Lunong said, "Now I roughly understand what's going on. When we do the experiment, I will just expand the space inside the bamboo and stop drawing water. Let's see if it will be better."

Kong Zhi arranged the rope, stood up and said, "What do you want to eat? I'll go to the cafeteria and order some stir-fry."

"Let's cook it ourselves. I want to eat meat. I've used my superpowers so much. I'm so hungry today." Xia Lunong touched his stomach.

He was thin to begin with, and now he was so hungry that his belly was about to collapse.

Kong Zhi said, "I'll go to the cafeteria to see if there's any animal meat. Timmy will go and change some."

Xia Lunong stood up and said, "I'll go with you. I've been sleeping for a long time and my body feels stiff."

There are crocodiles in the cafeteria today.

Xia Lunong had never eaten crocodiles before. When she saw the giant crocodile in the cafeteria, which was over three meters long, she was shocked and said, "How can this crocodile be so big? How did they get it back?"

Li Mingfei was helping Lao Huang, who was handling the crocodile. Hearing this, he said, "Hu Wenxuan and Ba Niu brought it back. How is it? This crocodile is scary, isn't it?"

"This is too scary. Are they both not injured?"

"Injured, but not seriously." Li Mingfei turned the crocodile's head slightly to show them, "Baniu shot the crocodile's eye with a gun. You see, the bloody hole is still there."

Lao Huang was butchering a crocodile. Seeing him moving around, he kicked him lightly, "Don't mess around. It's hard for me to cut."

After saying that, Lao Huang looked at Xia Huoqu and Kong Zhi and asked with a smile, "How about some crocodile meat? This is definitely a good thing. Eating it can make you stronger."

Xia Lunong looked at this big guy and asked, "How do you cook crocodile meat?"

"I heard that it tastes similar to beef. You can cut it into thin slices and stir-fry it over high heat. Aren't your peppers delicious? Add some peppers and pickled peppers and stir-fry them over high heat. I guarantee the taste will be great."

Xia Lunong was interested. "Then give me ten pounds."

"Okay." Lao Huang smiled and sharpened his knife with the whetstone next to him. "Wait a moment. I'll give it to you after I peel the skin off. One pound of crocodile is ten pounds of rice or ten credits. Do you have enough rice or credits?"

Xia Lunong was shocked. "Why is it so expensive? We used mutton to exchange for rice before, and it was only one pound of mutton and five pounds of rice."

Lao Huang said, "This crocodile is very dangerous, even if it's not as good as the one you exchanged that time. The snakes we encountered didn't matter much. How about exchanging ten kilograms or a little less? "

Kong Zhi said beside him, "Ten kilograms is enough. Give us the meat first, and I'll send the credit coins over later." "

Old Huang said happily, "I like big customers like you. Wait a minute!"

Xia Lunong looked at the big crocodile in front of her, and secretly counted the supplies stored upstairs. She felt that she had to go out and collect some things quickly, otherwise she wouldn't be able to afford meat in the future.

They took the crocodile meat back.

Crocodile meat is pure lean meat, and it really looks like beef. Xia Lunong followed the method of beef, marinated the crocodile meat first, cut pickled peppers and ginger, and then stir-fried it over high heat.

They have a large family and are also good at eating meat.

He cut the crocodile meat into two parts, took out about five catties of crocodile meat to stir-fry, blanched the remaining five catties in water, and then put them in the pot to blanch.

Xia Huoqu and Yan Xinian came back from watching the sheep.

As soon as Xia Huoqu entered the house, he stuffed a bag of wild fruits into Xia Lunong's pocket, "How do you feel now? Are

you feeling better?" Xia Lunong leaned over to look at the wild fruits, and heard him say, "It's almost healed, nothing's wrong, don't worry, brother."

Xia Huoqu nodded, "That's good, try your best to adjust yourself if you encounter any problems."

Xia Lunong smiled at his brother and continued to look at the wild fruits, "What kind of fruit is this? Why haven't I seen it before?"

"August bomb." Xia Huoqu said, "We tasted it before, it tastes quite sweet, you can try it and see if you like it."

"Isn't it October now?"

Yan Xinian interrupted, "August in the lunar calendar, almost. This should be the last batch of wild fruits, and we happened to come across it."

Xia Lunong nodded, "Thank you, brother Xinian, thank you brother."

"You're welcome. What did you cook tonight? It smells so good, my mouth is watering."

"Crocodile meat." Xia Lunong said, "Baniu and Hu Wenxuan brought back a crocodile that was more than three meters long. The canteen was distributing the meat, and we ordered some."

"Good guys, they are great!"

The family washed their hands and went to the table to eat.

Crocodile meat is similar to beef, but tougher.

Xia Lunong made sure it was safe and fried it for a little longer. The crocodile meat tasted very chewy and became more fragrant the more you ate. It tasted very good. Xia Lunong

liked the taste very much. She ate three bowls of rice in a row, and at least a pound of meat, which made her stomach round.

According to the old rules, Yan Xinian and Xia Huoqu washed the dishes, and the family sat in the living room and started chatting.

Xia Lunong told him his guess about his superpowers.

Xia Huoqu said: "Your idea makes sense. We'll know after trying it in the next few days."

Xia Lunong said: "I think so too. Brother, Brother Xinian, why don't we test our superpowers before we go out. If I can really stimulate bamboo to develop space superpowers, then we might be able to bring a lot more things this time."

Xia Huoqu said: "That's fine. Anyway, it's not urgent to go out. Let's try to go out before it snows. If it really snows, let it snow. At worst, we can drive slower."

Xia Huoqu said and looked at Yan Xinian.

Yan Xinian immediately said, "I agree with this. We should first understand the superpowers, so that we can have more tricks."

Xia Lunong said, "Then I won't go anywhere for the next few days and concentrate on experimenting with superpowers at home."

Xia Huo said, "Let's go outside. There are many people in the base and we should keep it secret as much as possible."

Xia Lunong said, "That's fine, but to experiment with superpowers related to planting, we'd better find a relatively fertile piece of land."

Xia Huo said, "The valley where we raise sheep has so much sheep manure now, so the soil is more fertile and relatively hidden, which is just right for our experiments."

Xia Lunong thought about it and nodded.

They have been eating sheep for some time, and there are only more than 30 sheep left in the flock.

The scale was already small, and even if the sheep attacked them, it would not pose any danger to them.

Xia Lunong was trapped in the sheep herd alone, but he was sure he could get out.

The next morning, after eating crocodile noodles, the four of them took seeds and fertilizers and set out for the valley.

Xia Lunong and Kong Zhi arrived first.

Within a few minutes, Yan Xinian and Xia Huoqu also arrived.

In order to plant the bamboo well, Xia Lunong specially cleared a piece of land, sprinkled water first, and then placed the bamboo seeds on the ground.

He specially picked the bamboo seeds for the experiment. The ones he picked were large and full, and they were heavy in his palm.

He looked at the bamboo in his palm, glanced at the three people around him, and said, "I'm starting?"

The sheep had been driven away by them.

Three people were protecting one person, and there were plants everywhere around them, which was a double protection.

Xia Huo said, "Let's start. We'll be on guard at the edge."

Xia Lunong took a deep breath, nodded and placed the bamboo seed in the soil. He only planted one seed for this experiment.

This time he didn't think about letting the bamboo absorb water, nor did he think about how tall or big the bamboo grew. He just wanted these bamboos to be able to transform into space powers.

As he thought about the bamboo, tender shoots emerged little by little, and then grew at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The bamboo grew very slowly, but several of them waited patiently by the side.

Several people waited without blinking, and after waiting for more than half an hour, the bamboo grew from a tender shoot to a plant.

This bamboo grew short and thick, with a bamboo pole of about ten centimeters. It stopped growing when it grew to a height of more than one meter, and then the whole bamboo began to wither and turn yellow, and the bamboo leaves withered.

Xia Lunong looked at the bamboo with a dreadful look, watching it grow so tall little by little, and then completely die.

He stretched out his hand and gestured. The part of the bamboo exposed on the ground had six sections in total.

Xia Lunong stared at the bamboo with his dark eyes, swallowed his saliva, and said, "Let's start now. Cut it down and see what's inside. We'll know roughly."

He pushed Kong Zhi and said, "You guys come. I'm a little nervous now."

After saying that, he stepped back half a step to make room, and his palms were damp.
