Chapter 161 Negotiation



Xia Huajiao is not a human being, and has little experience in talking to living things.

It did not feel that there was something wrong with the rose, and it was quite happy to talk to the rose.

When Xia Huajiao asked if these roses were from the same plant, the rose readily admitted, "Yes, these are all my branches. I am the only rose in the entire Shangyan District."

Xia Lunong subconsciously straightened her back.

After the rose finished speaking, all the branches turned around and faced Xia Lunong, "Didn't you guess it a long time ago? Why are you so surprised?"

Xia Lunong did not expect it to come directly to her. She was stunned for a moment, and reached out to hold the rose's branch, "Do you know me?"

"I know." The rose said, "The guy from Honeysuckle told me about you, and it has a good impression of you."

Xia Lunong simply did not know what to say for a moment.

Rose said, "Don't embarrass this prickly ash tree. What do you want to do here? Just tell me directly."

Summer Pepper: "Huh?"

Xia Lunong didn't know what to say for a moment. He looked at Kong Zhi and his brother, and then at the others who were waiting not far away.

The attitude of this rose was so strange that all his previous assumptions were useless.

This was the first time he encountered such a lively plant that changed its attitude faster than turning the pages of a book.

The rose seemed to be impatient to wait, and its branches turned around and pointed at him in unison, looking unfriendly.

Xia Lunong spoke, "Honeysuckle also told me about you."

He spoke slowly, trying to buy himself time to think, "It was because we heard it talking about you that we decided to come and take a look."

Rose's message was a little cold, "I know, you should stop talking nonsense."

Xia Lunong did not follow its instructions, and continued, "My ability can promote plant growth and achieve mutual benefit, so I get along well with most plants. My friendship with Honeysuckle is almost the same." When

Rose heard this, its branches relaxed a little and were no longer so tense.

Kong Zhi and Xia Huoqu, who were ready to transform back into beasts at any time, also relaxed their muscles.

The atmosphere just now was too bad, and they were almost ready to take action.

Xia Lunong was quick to notice the change in the atmosphere and continued, "After Honeysuckle told me that there was a Chinese rose here, I was very curious and wanted to come and take a look, so I came."

The Chinese rose said, "You have already seen it, you can leave. Shangyan District is my territory, and I don't welcome creatures other than prey."

Xia Lunong looked at the Chinese rose in front of her and said, "Honeysuckle is in a very bad condition."

The Chinese rose said bluntly, "That's because it's stupid."

Xia Lunong said, "You are not in a good condition either, and your mental state is not right."

The branches of the Chinese rose moved in unison, and it seemed that it wanted to attack Xia Lunong directly.

Kong Zhi suddenly turned into a giant golden eagle, took a few quick steps, rushed into the sky, and circled, ready to rush down and take Xia Lunong away at any time.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Xia Lunong tightened her abdomen, ready to transform back into a beast at any time, staring at Yue Jihua, "I have no hostility towards you. If I had any hostility, we should have launched a long-range attack by now."

Yue Jihua was full of sarcasm, "I didn't know that cunning humans have the virtue of restraint?"

Xia Lunong said: "The gap between people is greater than the gap between plants."

"Don't talk nonsense. There are only two reasons why you don't attack me. One is that you can't be sure that you can kill me directly. The second is-you have some plan for me?"

Xia Lunong said: "What do you think our plan is?"

"How do I know this? You mostly want the flesh and skin of mutant plants and animals?" Yue Jihua said, "The only thing you can plot against is my body."

Xia Lunong never expected the conversation to develop in this direction.

He felt both amused and sad when he heard Yue Jihua

's words. This was too strange, like a child insisting on saying what an adult said.

Xia Lunong inexplicably relaxed a lot. He raised his hands to indicate that he was harmless. "If that's the case, can we chat first? Anyway, you have nothing to do now, so we can chat for a while. As a reward for chatting, I will input some superpowers into you."

Rose was very cautious, "How do I know if your superpowers are directed at me?"

"You will know after trying it." Xia Lunong did not touch Rose. "You can extend a relatively unimportant branch by yourself. If my superpowers are harmful to you, just cut off the branch in time."

Rose thought for a moment and reluctantly agreed to this proposal.

Xia Lunong grabbed the branch that was extended and sincerely input the superpowers that promoted the growth of Rose.

In the first moment after his superpowers were input, the branch of Rose began to grow longer and thicker at a speed visible to the naked eye, and grew tender green buds.

The rose watched its branches grow with amazement, and said, "It really did it! How did it happen?"

Xia Lunong said, "So the relationship between me and the plants is generally a partnership, and we can benefit each other."

The rose branches turned to the summer pepper.

It asked the summer pepper, "How many years have you grown? Does he usually give you a lot of this superpower? How much taller have you grown this year?"

The summer pepper answered honestly.

When Rose heard that the summer pepper tree grew so tall in just one year, her mood seemed to turn to jealousy in an instant, "Why did you plant this pepper tree? To get its peppers or the trunk? I heard that the trunk of the mutant plant is very useful."

"I usually collect some peppers." Xia Lunong said, "I like the peppers it produces, but the main purpose is that I hope it grows outside the yard to help me resist humans with bad intentions. Producing peppers is just a side effect."

Rose didn't quite believe that there was such a good thing, and it asked the summer pepper carefully.

The crown of the summer pepper tree shook and gave a positive answer.

Rose asked Xia Lunong, "You came to me, do you also want me to guard the yard for you?"

Xia Lunong said, "You have grown too big, I hope you can come and help me guard a city."

Rose didn't understand what he meant.

Xia Lunong said, "There is a plain at the foot of our base, where the original body of Honeysuckle is planted. There are no humans there yet. If possible, I was planning to ask you to live there and help us protect that land."

Rose didn't quite believe it, "So simple?"

"The reason we came to you at the beginning was that simple." Xia Lunong said, "Honeysuckle didn't tell us that your original body was so big, nor did it say anything else. I originally wanted to ask you to plant it by the river. I am confident that after you are stimulated by supernatural powers, the scale will be large enough to cover most of the plain."

Rose didn't think he had made such a great wish, and was stunned for a moment.

Xia Lunong didn't urge it, just waited there quietly, waiting for it to think.

After a while, Yueji said, "You can see my situation. This large area is all my original body. I don't have time to help you guard a plain."

Xia Lunong said, "We didn't know before, but we guessed it when we saw you like this."

Yueji expressed some regret. It was not interested in Xia Lunong and the plain, but was very interested in his supernatural power.

It was really regrettable for plants to have seen such supernatural powers but not be able to obtain them.

Xia Lunong saw that its hostility was not so strong, and said, "Your situation is really not very good. May I ask you what's going on?"

Yueji asked back, "Didn't you ask?"

If it were a human, it would almost roll its eyes.

Xia Lunong smiled and waited quietly for its answer.

He has a power that makes plants feel at ease.

Rose hesitated for a while and told him, "I encountered the same problem as honeysuckle."

Xia Lunong didn't expect it to be this, "Is the root system also rotting?"

Rose seemed reluctant to mention this question. After a pause, he reluctantly said, "Yes, the root system has a tumor and is starting to rot."

Xia Lunong subconsciously looked at the summer pepper next to him.

The root system of summer pepper is very healthy, strong and tough. It doesn't worry about the root system at all, and often uses the root system to replace the animal's feet and jumps around on the ground.

Rose also realized that there was nothing wrong with the roots of the summer pepper. It hummed, "My roots were fine before, but they started to have problems this spring."

Xia Lunong asked, "Did something special happen?"

Rose seemed to be evaluating whether he was trustworthy. After a pause, it said, "Earthquake. I felt an earthquake once, and then my roots slowly started to have problems."

Xia Lunong had only encountered one major earthquake since he woke up, and that was the one that caused the tsunami.

He asked, "Is it the one that caused the tsunami?"

"I don't know which one it was, but it was an earthquake." Yueji said, alert again, "But even if there is a problem with my roots, I am still alive and well, don't think of anything bad."

Xia Lunong could vaguely sense Yueji's solution, and asked, "You are still alive and well, are you increasing your hunting volume and using a large number of prey to maintain your survival?"

"Humph, is it not possible?"

"Of course you can, but this place is so remote, how many prey will come here after your reputation spreads?" Xia Lunong asked, "You still bloom so many flowers in the middle of winter, just to attract prey, right?"

Yueji was silent for a moment and said, "Human, I still don't trust you."

"I understand." Xia Lunong said, "The place where you are is very far away from our base."

Yueji felt puzzled, "Of course I know you are not close."

Xia Lunong said, "Because it is too far, we rarely come here. After we go back this time, we will not come here until at least next year."

Yueji: "What does this have to do with me?"

"When I first saw honeysuckle, it gave me a section of its offspring vine and a section of its body. I planted its offspring behind my yard, and the section of the body is on the plain." Xia Lunong said, "I still admire your ability very much. I wonder if you are willing to give me a chance, and give yourself a chance, and give me a section of your offspring or body."

Yueji didn't expect him to come up with this idea, "You are really bold."

Xia Lunong said, "A suggestion and Even if you don't agree, I won't lose anything. "

Yue Ji said: "I don't know what Honeysuckle thinks. Giving away our original bodies is not as simple as you think."

Xia Lunong asked: "What about the offspring?"

Yue Ji snorted coldly, "Even if it is a offspring, what does it have to do with other roses? Why should I give it such a good opportunity?"

Xia Lunong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This was the first time he met a plant that couldn't do this or that.

He asked: "Then what do you want to do?"

Yue Ji was impatient, "Wait for me for a while, I need to think about it!"
