After many years, Xia Lunong stood on the stage again.

He had mostly performed and hosted on the stage before, but this time he was giving a speech.

The content of the speech was not the professional content he had studied, but the agricultural content he had simply figured out.

However, standing on this stage, he was braver than any time before.

Xia Lunong glanced around and met Kong Zhi's eyes.

Kong Zhi was sitting in the middle of the first row, looking at him encouragingly.

Xia Lunong smiled, stood on the stage and spoke the first sentence.

An expert can tell whether something is good or not

just by looking at it. The audience below was a little careless at first, and even made jokes, but after hearing him speak the first sentence, almost everyone sat up straight.

Xia Lunong has learned a lot in the past year, and some of it is not just experience, he also knows a lot of knowledge from books.

Combining these, he speaks very clearly and profoundly.

The audience below, regardless of age or education, understands.

He talks about the issues that everyone cares about the most, and no one wants to be distracted.

Xia Lunong originally planned to speak for only 40 minutes for this presentation.

As he spoke, he couldn't stop talking and spoke for more than 70 minutes.

The audience below kept raising their hands to ask questions, and after an hour and a half, they didn't finish the presentation.

Xia Huoqu and Yan Xinian were sitting below.

Yan Xinian said to Xia Huoqu: "We all underestimated Xiao Nong. We originally thought that he would be stage fright, but he performed better than we thought."

Xia Huoqu thought of the past and looked at his brother on the stage. His voice softened involuntarily. "He has had countless experiences of performing on stage since he was a child. How could he be stage fright? I just didn't expect him to speak so well. It's much better than I thought."

"Children grow up so fast." Yan Xinian said, "It seems like it was just yesterday when he was born, and in the blink of an eye, he has grown up and is about to start a family."

Xia Huoqu glanced at him, "You look so old-fashioned, you are only a few years older than him?"

Yan Xinian smiled, "It has nothing to do with age, I could already remember when he was born. I remember you were not very happy at that time, for you were afraid that your brother would snatch your toys from you."

Xia Huoqu also remembered the past and laughed, "We were all annoyed with him back then, but we didn't expect that he would follow us around for so many years."

Xia Lunong knew that her two brothers were talking about their own embarrassing stories off the stage.

He finally finished speaking, and ended the topic in the audience's reluctance. After the host announced the end of the show, he excitedly came down and looked for Kong Zhi first, "How was it? I spoke well, didn't I?"

Kong Zhi praised: "Very good, profound and simple, easy to understand."

In the early spring weather, Xia Lunong's head was sweating.

He chuckled, wiped the sweat from his forehead, turned around and looked around, "Where are my brothers? I just saw them."

"There are too many people. They may have gone out to wait, or they may have gone home. We will know when we go out."

Xia Lunong and Kong Zhi went out.

As expected, the two brothers were waiting for them outside.

Xia Lunong ran up to them and asked for credit: "How was it? Did I speak well? Did I not let you down?"

"Very good, much better than I thought. We were just discussing that and were worried that you would be stage fright." Yan Xinian raised his thumb, "I think if the school reopens after the disaster, it would be a good idea for you to study agriculture."

Xia Lunong waved his hands shyly, "We'll talk about it later. It's good that everyone understands."

Xia Lunong not only explained it to the people at the base, but he also wanted to practice farming himself.

Compared with last year's wolf, they were much more comfortable this year.

That night, Xia Lunong and Kong Zhi came back from work and bumped into their two brothers at the intersection.

Xia Huoqu and Yan Xinian's clothes were all dirty, with black oil stains all over them. Even from a distance, Xia Lunong could smell the pungent smell of gasoline.

Xia Lunong was startled, "Why do you smell so much gasoline? Where did you go today?"

Yan Xinian said, "Isn't it spring? We have found out the distribution of agricultural machinery before, and we went out to get it back today."

Xia Lunong asked, "Are those agricultural machinery broken?"

"Not much. Most of the damage is to parts. There's just a little oil leakage. We just need to bring it back and fix it." Yan Xinian smiled. "Let's not talk about us. How was your planting today? Those cows plowed the fields smoothly, right?"

Xia Lunong nodded. "Very smoothly. These cows were originally raised by humans. They have a gentle temperament and high IQ. As long as they are taught, they will know how to plow the fields."

Yan Xinian patted his shoulder with his clean hands. "That's great. In the future, if it's inconvenient for agricultural machinery to pass through, such as terraced fields, let the cows plow the fields. Where it's convenient, let the machines do it. We'll do both."

Speaking of this, Xia Lunong Asked: "In addition to the pear fields and farming, are there any harvesters? Have you found them?"

Yan Xinian nodded and said, "We have found them and are repairing them. But there is no rush. Let's talk about it when we are ready to harvest. Many agricultural machinery are multi-purpose. Sometimes you can replace a part and use them for other purposes."

After Yan Xinian finished speaking, he saw that there was no one around, so he lowered his voice and said, "The current terrain is more complicated, and there are some mutant plants in the ground. The Fire Base is researching agricultural machinery suitable for the modern era."

Xia Lunong was curious and said, "Even if that's the case, the agricultural machinery left behind should be enough. Isn't this the only reason for researching new machinery?"

"Smart." Yan Xinian praised, "It's mainly because of energy. In the past, we used diesel and gasoline for agricultural machinery. Now the industrial system has not been established and transportation is not convenient. If we still use diesel or gasoline, it will be very troublesome."

Xia Lunong didn't expect that this actually involved the issue of new energy.

He looked at Yan Xinian in shock and swallowed his saliva, "Brother Xinian, the Fire Base also told us, what is the new energy they found?"

"It hasn't been found yet, but it is related to the meteorite we provided, so we were told, remember to keep it confidential."

Xia Lunong said, "Where can I tell it?"

After talking, the few people returned to their homes.

They were too tired to move, so they simply went to the cafeteria to order dinner.

The spring ploughing activity in the base went smoothly.

Xia Lunong and Kong Zhi finished planting all the land at home in about a week. Xia

Huoqu and Yan Xinian did not participate in the planting. They were told clearly that they would not participate in the profit sharing of this planting. They were allowed to plant and harvest by themselves, and all the harvests belonged to them.

The crops planted by Xia Lunong and Kong Zhi were not ordinary crops. With Xia Lunong's special ability, the value of the crops could be very high.

Xia Huoqu and Yan Xinian explained it in advance at the beginning, also for the sake of future harmony.

Even though both of them knew that with the two little personalities, it was impossible for them to care about such things.

Despite this, Xia Lunong still felt a little sad after hearing what his brother said.

He said to his brother, "We used to hang out together, it's too strange to say that."

Xia Huoqu said, "A family is a family, and now you are considered a family. In addition to the big family, you also have a small family. It's not appropriate to hang out together anymore. It's a good thing to separate early."

Xia Lunong let out a long sigh, "Kong Zhi doesn't mind this."

"It's his business if he doesn't mind. As brothers, we can't fail to do our best."

Xia Lunong felt a little uncomfortable, "Then brother, what about you and brother Xi Nian? Have you formed a small family too?"

Xia Huoqu's face was cold and stern, and a small bump appeared on his brows. "What did he say to you?"

Xia Lunong shook her head, "He didn't say anything, but I'm not stupid, I can still see this. Brother, are you officially together?"

"It's already now, how can it be formal?" Xia Huoqu rubbed his brows, "Don't ask, if there is any news, I will take the initiative to tell you."

Xia Lunong said fearlessly, "Brother, I feel that my brother liked you very much in the past."

Xia Huoqu looked at him and said, "Your brother used to have a girlfriend."

Xia Lunong didn't expect this, "Ah?"

Xia Huoqu said in a low voice, not knowing whether he was talking to himself or his brother, "The so-called love may just be an illusion in a special environment."

Xia Lunong didn't want to interfere with her brother's love, so she didn't say anything else.

After the land in the base is plowed, the plain below can be reclaimed.

There are basically no mutant animals on the plain that dare to come over now.

There are a lot of people here, and the mutant animals have high IQs. As long as they don't take the initiative to seek death, they will walk around this plain.

There are many mutant plants in the plain now.

When spring comes, everything grows and mutates, and the plants are also particularly thriving. Several teams of people walking on the plain have been injured by the mutant plants.

Xia Lunong was temporarily entrusted to patrol the plain and check the condition of the plants in the plain.

Xia Huoqu was worried about his safety and originally wanted to protect him personally, but he was persuaded by him.

With his current strength, it is enough to ensure his safety when he goes out with Kong Zhi.

After Xia Huajiao knew that they were going down for patrol, he also wanted to go with them.

But this year's Xia Huajiao is far from the physique of last year. The diameter of its trunk has exceeded ten centimeters, and the thorns on its body are sharp and long. There is no way to pull out the roots and jump on the ground, so it can only give up.

For this, the summer pepper plant was so aggrieved that it waved its branches "whooshing" in the yard for half an hour.

Rose won this time and said, "Trees are not suitable for frequent moving. If they need to be moved, vines like me can move more easily."

Xia Lunong was worried about Rose. "We are not going out for fun on this inspection. Why are you following us?"

"You guys are free anyway, and I'm not heavy. It would be great to

take me with you. If you really encounter some mutated animals or plants, I can help you fight." Xia Lunong said coldly, "If we really encounter mutated animals or plants that we can't deal with, Kong Zhi can fly into the sky and pick me up and take me away. You have thorns all over your body, and it won't be easy to claw at you."

Rose said without hesitation, "Then just leave me behind. I have so many bodies anyway, it doesn't matter if I lose one or two."

Rose was willing to follow, but Xia Lunong was not.

This one is so talkative. It’s really a disruption to the two of us to bring such a big and talkative light bulb!

Xia Lunong finally discussed with it and decided to take it with him once out of five times at most.

Rose was not very satisfied, but it was the only one among the plants in the yard that could go with him. After a few quarrels, he had to compromise.

Xia Lunong and his friends had to go to many places, and they would also go to see the honeysuckle.

The honeysuckle had been planted on the plain for almost a year. After being washed by wind, frost, rain and snow, it grew very large and had grown hundreds of meters along the river.

It is not the time for honeysuckle to bloom yet.

When it blooms, I am afraid that hundreds of meters along the river will be paved with golden and silver corridors.

Xia Lunong likes honeysuckle very much, and he would go to see it almost every time he was nearby.

On this day, he went to visit the honeysuckle nearby as usual.

He originally just wanted to take a look, and if it was lacking fertilizer or water, he would replenish it.

Unexpectedly, when he walked over to take a look, he immediately felt something was wrong.

This honeysuckle seemed to have consciousness.

It was a very strange feeling.

Xia Lunong often walked outside, and he could clearly distinguish between mutant plants and non-mutated plants.

The honeysuckle that originally grew here was also a huge mutant plant, but the degree of mutation was not that serious.

Now the honeysuckle Xia Lunong has reached the point where he feels his scalp tingling at a glance. Obviously, this is a powerful mutant plant.

Xia Lunong couldn't tell at first whether this was a new mutation or the consciousness of the honeysuckle had finally moved over and settled here.

He looked behind the honeysuckle.

The honeysuckle grew by the river, and not far away was their newly built factory.

People were coming and going in and out of the factory.

If a large honeysuckle really mutated under their noses, the consequences would be disastrous if it suddenly attacked and hurt people.

Xia Lunong and Kong Zhi looked at each other with serious eyes.

Kong Zhi and he had a tacit understanding, and from this glance, he already understood that the plant in front of him was very dangerous.

Kongzhi held his hand, the muscles in his body tense, ready to transform back into his animal form at any moment and take him away.

Xia LuNong cautiously leaned over and said hello to Honeysuckle.

It took Honeysuckle a while to respond, "You're here?"

Xia Lunong frowned, "What's going on? Why do I feel that your aura is different?"

"You're not wrong." Honeysuckle paused for a little while, "My body couldn't hold on any longer, so I moved my consciousness here, but it can't be done all at once."

"So half of your consciousness is here, and the other half is still here. "No, they are all here. "

Honeysuckle said to Xia Lunong distressedly, "The problem is that I now have two consciousnesses."
