Chapter 138
The picnic blanket was already covered with dishes prepared by A Yan. For meat alone, there were grilled meat, steamed taro meat, and stir-fried meat with garlic sprouts. In addition, there were fish soup, grilled taro, and stir-fried star chain fruit vines.
In addition to the fruit, all other parts of the star chain fruit are edible. Of course, A Yan only let the cubs pick the freshest vine leaves.
The vine leaves are tender green. After being stir-fried over high heat, they are fresh and refreshing, with a light sweetness, which is perfect for relieving greasiness.
In addition to star chain fruit, the leaves of Ying Cui beans can also be eaten as vegetables, but because the quantity is small, A Yan kept them for the time being and only stewed and stir-fried the Ying Cui beans that were picked.
The aroma of food spread along the river bank, and it really felt like a picnic.
Among all the dishes, Su Ci finally found a plate of grilled fish. The fish was burnt brown and slightly black, and its tail had been roasted into charcoal. If the outer skin was peeled off, the fish meat was still edible.
The Red Flame Tiger, who had been squatting beside him, noticed Su Ci's gaze and lowered his head in shame.
"I will continue to work hard." Ran Lie said.
Su Ci didn't say anything, but took a light bite and nodded: "Not bad."
As for the burnt fish, they had all turned into ashes and were buried in the soil by A Yan to fertilize the fields.
Ran Lie finally felt better.
"Then in the afternoon..."
He wanted to continue practicing grilling fish, but he heard the keeper say, "We'll go to the Magic Flower Valley in the afternoon. You need to use up all the power of the red flame before going back."
"Okay." Ran Lie agreed.
He has also realized the benefits of this training method. In the past, he couldn't control the delicate operation of grilling red flame fish, let alone simply controlling it.
After the "devil training" in the past few days, he can control it freely, not to mention how strong his control is.
As the red flame was controlled by him, Ran Lie could clearly feel that the violent blood power in his body was becoming tamed little by little.
He believed that in the near future, he would no longer need to use up all the power of the red flame like now before he could restore his human form.
At this time, Rong Heng and his friends had also finished stir-frying the Yingcui beans. After A Yan sprinkled spices on them and mixed them carefully, the crispy and delicious fried beans were ready to be served.
All the cubs sat around the tablecloth.
Everyone got their own bowl and spoon. Although they had already guessed, when Su Ci nodded and told them to eat whatever they wanted, the cubs couldn't help but cheer.
Even the calmest Rong Heng laughed, not to mention the always noisy little wolf cub.
"Great, Su Su is the best!"
It's no wonder they were excited. Although the current diet has improved a lot, their staple food is still nutritious. They have never tried eating meat and vegetables alone like this!
A Yan put a large piece of roasted taro in each cub's bowl as the staple food, so after Su Ci gave the order, the cubs began to enjoy the fruits of their labor.
The surface of the roasted taro was sprinkled with magic nectar, and after being roasted, it exuded the unique sweetness of caramel. The roasted taro was not dry and hard, but soft and dense, with a particularly good taste, and it made you feel full after eating it.
Although you will feel choked if you eat too much, you will feel very comfortable immediately after drinking a mouthful of the sweet and delicious fish soup.
Stir-fried vine leaves, beans, and garlic sprouts, except for Xuewei, the other children were eating it for the first time. Even Xiao Langze, who loves meat the most, thought that this green "vegetable" was particularly delicious, not to mention Lu Jiao and the others.
The newly added delicacies are very popular, and barbecue is an unchanging true love.
Of course, there are also steamed meat with taro and stir-fried meat with garlic sprouts. The cubs only then knew that there are so many ways to eat meat!
The cubs, who enjoyed this kind of treatment for the first time, buried their heads in eating quietly and forgot to talk.
The breeze blew gently, and the new green that continued to emerge on the river bank swayed in the wind. The fish in the water swam safely, and the water plants at the bottom of the river were gradually lush.
After filling his stomach, Su Ci lay down comfortably and closed his eyes comfortably.
Noticing that he closed his eyes to rest, the cubs subtly slowed down their movements, carefully not making any noise, and carefully swept all the food on the plates, not even leaving out the juice.
If A Yan hadn't stopped him, the little wolf would have wanted to pick up the plate and lick it.
When A Yan took away the tableware, had the red flame tiger carry it on his back, and took it back to the nursery to wash it, he still looked reluctant, because...
it was so delicious! How could brother A Yan make so many delicious things!
The little wolf touched his round belly, his face full of satisfaction, and felt that this was the happiest day of his life!
He took a fancy to the position next to Su Ci, secretly moved over, and then lay down happily next to the young man.
The young man lay on the tablecloth in a big letter shape, feeling the slightly moist breeze on the river bank, and stretched his waist comfortably. He felt that lying like this, he would soon feel sleepy.
With the first one lying down, there was naturally a second and a third...
When Xiao Lihua also rubbed her eyes and wanted to pull her brother to lie down and sleep together, Xuewei took out a picnic blanket and spread it on the ground, so that all the cubs could lie down.
Of course, except for Xiao Zhengxing who never liked to join in the fun.
After eating, he hid in the tent again and began to digest the insights he gained from controlling the spaceship today.
It is true that he has gained a lot of knowledge from the base's intelligent computer, but to completely transform it into his own things, he still needs to go through some practice.
However, after eating, it is indeed easy to fall asleep. In addition, he has consumed a lot of mental energy in the morning. He yawned a little, then forced himself to be alert and continued to digest those insights.
He thought that he would sleep well when Langze came to find him...
outside the tent.
The little wolf cub who lay down first, just before he fell asleep, suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.
He looked around, then stood up and walked into the tent. Sure enough, he saw the figure of little Zhengxing curled up in the corner. He was obviously getting sleepy, but he didn't know why he didn't sleep.
"Xingxing, let's go out for a nap. Everyone is outside! And it's so stuffy in the tent. It's so comfortable to be outside with the wind!"
As he said that, the young man bent down and picked up little Zhengxing.
As expected, hearing his voice, little Zhengxing was picked up by the young man obediently, and then rested his head on his shoulder, letting his consciousness pass out.
Langze carried him outside the tent and lay down in the same position just now. Little Zhengxing was placed between him and Su Ci, and then he couldn't hold on any longer, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
When A Yan and Chi Yanhu came back, they saw the cubs sleeping next to Su Ci.
He pursed his lips and let Chi Yanhu find a place to sleep, and he walked over, moved Langze and Zhengxing away a little, and squeezed himself next to Su Ci.
The place next to Su Su can only be his!
Of course, before lying down, A Yan did not forget to cover the cubs with a blanket to prevent them from getting cold.
It must be said that the picture of these cubs sleeping together like little animals is still quite heartwarming, and they are even more adorable after the furry red flame cat lies down.
When A Yan covered the cubs with blankets, he also imitated Su Ci and touched the furry animal ears on their heads.
The sleeping cubs were unaware, and even if they were woken up, they just turned over, rubbed themselves against the blanket, and then continued to sleep -
in addition to the fact that this scene is indeed suitable for sleeping, these young children are indeed tired after a busy morning and need sleep to restore their physical strength and spirit.
A Yan didn't feel sleepy. After the Red Flame Tiger also fell asleep, he sat next to Su Ci, took out a notebook and wrote the sacred text.
The last time he dismissed the Blood Rain, he had used up all the previous stocks, so he had to replenish them as soon as possible.
When Su Ci woke up again in the afternoon, the cubs were gone - they were woken up by A Yan and went back to the nursery for class.
Moreover, it was not good for the cubs to leave the nursery for too long, after all, people from the breeding garden would come over now.
So when Su Ci woke up, only A Yan was with him.
Sensing his movements, A Yan turned his head to look at him and gave him a lovely smile, "Su Su, you're awake."
Su Ci was not fully awake yet, and did not respond. He stared at him for a while, then stretched out his hands, grabbed A Yan's ears and rubbed them.
A Yan not only did not resist, but also smiled happily.
After a long time, Su Ci finally woke up completely. He let go of the child, sat up slowly, looked at the river bank that had become empty again, and asked, "Did they all go back?"
"Yes, they went back to class." A Yan said with a smile.
Su Ci nodded, stretched his waist, stood up, and said to him, "Let's go, let's go downstream."
A Yan quickly put away the notebook, and then followed him along the river all the way to the place where the river water was blocked downstream.
This is a cliff. Once the river becomes running water, it will flow down the cliff and become a huge waterfall. Unfortunately, the source of the river is blocked for some reason.
Water is the source of life, and this river must be dredged sooner or later.
Su Ci led A Yan to the bottom of the cliff.
It can be seen that there is a large pit several meters deep under the cliff, which should be formed by the impact of the water flow, and then a river meanders southward.
This river has naturally dried up.
However, the rain yesterday made the dry riverbed wet. Like the river upstream, it gathered a lot of mud monsters that rely on resentment.
Su Ci eliminated and purified these mud monsters, and then directed A Yan to draw a clean water barrier at the bottom of the river.
The impact of the water flow is very strong. It is difficult for a single water purification barrier to purify it as it passes by, so it needs to be set up in sections.
Once this river channel is dredged, the water flow can carry moss and water plants to far places, and the fish will be washed away. Over time, a new ecology will be established.
Although the purified water will inevitably be polluted again as it continues to flow forward, things must always be done step by step.
At least first ensure the water supply of this plain, and then expand the territory little by little.
Su Ci, who has endless life, has enough patience to complete such a plan.
It was not until dusk that they set up more than a dozen barriers. The rest can only wait until the next day to continue.
When Su Ci returned to the nursery, Zhuang Shisong and Wei Ming had not returned yet. When they arrived, the cubs were all having classes next to the green space, and they did not notice that the children had gone out for a picnic.
Even if the children were not there, they might not be in the mood to pay attention, because -
a mutant star chain fruit was missing!
After asking the cubs, they learned that this mutant star chain fruit was moved away by Su Ci.
This made them very confused.
In addition to the nursery, where else could the keeper Su move this mutant star chain fruit?
Moreover, this star chain fruit has grown very lushly, and many vines are entangled with other star chain fruits, but there does not seem to be much damage at the scene.
So, how did the keeper Su do it?
The two of them thought about it for an entire afternoon, but they still couldn't figure it out. As for the cubs, they also didn't get an answer, so they were unwilling to leave.
Fortunately, they finally waited for Su Ci.
Facing their inquiries, Su Ci did not answer, but just asked: "How is the garlic sprout?"
"The situation is a little more stable today. You can get within ten meters of it without being dizzy." Zhuang Shisong said, "Of course, it won't work if you get any closer."
And the strong smell will still spread from time to time, giving the researchers a headache and confusion.
"Boss Cen hopes you can go over and take a look." Zhuang Shisong relayed Cen Liang's words, "The mutant garlic is in the most important differentiation period. We are not sure whether this situation will have an impact..."
Unconsciously, Su Ci has established his authority.
The fact that he has plant bloodline has also spread in the cultivation garden. When Cen Liang asked him to go over and take a look, no one questioned it anymore.
However, Su Ci shook his head and said, "I won't go over for the time being."
The little spiritual garlic was probably excited again when it saw him. It was now emitting garlic smell when it was happy, which was indeed helpless and funny.
"Its smell can dispel pollutants." Su Ci said, "You all carry pollutants to a certain extent, so you will faint when you smell too concentrated gas."
After hearing Su Ci's explanation, Zhuang Shisong and Wei Ming suddenly realized.
No wonder Su the Keeper didn't faint!
They originally thought that it was the plant blood he carried, but if it was because of this, it would make sense.
Because Su the Keeper has only been on Hell Star for a short time, the concentration of pollutants in the base has also decreased recently due to unknown reasons, so the pollutants accumulated on his body should be very small.
"That is to say, when the pollutants on our bodies are close to zero, we will not faint even if the smell is strong when we get close to the mutant garlic, right?" Wei Ming asked excitedly.
"Yes." Su Ci nodded, "As for the differentiation period, as long as it is guaranteed to have sufficient nutrition, it should grow normally."
With Su Ci's words, Zhuang Shisong and Wei Ming were completely relieved.
However, they did not give up the mutant star chain fruit.
"Keeper Su..."
They were interrupted by Su Ci before they finished speaking, "I know what you want to ask. I will tell you after you pass my test."
These two are really good at planting. Su Ci will never let them go. However, Su Ci is still waiting to see whether to show his ability in front of them or to train them to become spiritual plant masters.
Zhuang Shisong and Wei Ming were stunned for a moment, and then they remembered that they had asked Su Ci to accept them as students. When
Keeper Su said that he was testing them, he was really giving them a chance!
The two of them were overjoyed and said to Su Ci: "Okay, we got it! But this test... what exactly is it?"
Su Ci shook his head, "Just do your job, I will make my own judgment."
So, Zhuang Shisong and the others did not dare to ask any more questions.
"Then we will leave first and come back tomorrow!"
After saying goodbye to Su Ci, they hurried back happily, ready to share the important information of the mutant garlic with other growers.
After watching their hurriedly leaving backs disappear into the night, Su Ci retracted his sight.
As a result, when he turned around, he saw the Red Flame Tiger squatting behind him, staring at him eagerly, and did not go back to the room.
Su Ci then remembered what he had said to him at noon, so he had to take the Red Flame Tiger to the Magic Flower Valley again.
The giant spider's nest, where spiders of all sizes live, constantly looking out of the nest.
It's getting dark, and the little tiger that can spit fire shouldn't show up! With the arrival of night, all the giant spiders that went out to avoid disasters slowly returned.
However, just when they were glad that they could finally rest, the violent breath appeared again...
When they sensed the breath coming from the cave entrance, all the giant spiders were angry.
Is it over yet!
They waved their joints and crawled to other passages in the cave. If they can't afford to provoke, can't they hide? Unfortunately, how could Su Ci let them run away like this?
Transparent barriers appeared one after another, directly blocking the giant spiders that had no time to escape in the nest.
Now Ran Lie, who had grown braver, roared at the entrance of the cave, and rushed directly into the giant spider's nest to fight, and fought without any regard for anything.
He was rescued by Su Ci until his red flame power was exhausted.
It is worth mentioning that Ran Lie persisted for five minutes longer than yesterday, and the number of giant spiders killed also increased significantly. He was making progress every day.
After returning, Su Ci threw the boy to the nanny robot, and then went to inspect the green land. He transferred the three most tenacious star chain fruits into the soul storage bag, preparing to transplant them to the mountain tomorrow.
The three star chain fruits directly filled the first soul storage bag. Su Ci returned to the dormitory and began to weave a new soul storage bag.
Before going to bed, there were three more soul storage bags.
He gave one to A Yan and kept the other two. Su Ci then went to wash up and go to bed. The next day, he brought A Yan to the Magic Flower Valley through the teleportation array.
A Yan didn't know why Su Ci came to the Magic Flower Valley so early, but he followed him obediently. Then he saw the young man leading him out of the valley and to an open space in the mountains.
This open space was obviously different from other places, and the land had been purified.
Moreover, there were many footprints that looked like those of animals on the open space. As for the dozen or so star chain fruits that Su Ci left yesterday, they had all disappeared.
