Xie Sen looked at Maine in surprise. Did he know that he was the master of the plant contract beast? When did he know that?
No, he is not at all!
Xu Da laughed: "I told you that, you live together and have such a good relationship, there's no way he doesn't know."
Xie Sen smiled awkwardly, thinking that he had never told Maine that he was a plant-type beast master.
He turned the topic to business, and spread his hands to Xu Da: "I'm sorry, I can't help you, and I don't know why it can't sprout."
"It's okay," Xu Da's disappointment soon dissipated, and he said in an open-minded tone, "Plant research is a long-term thing. I just don't want to give up any hope, so I came to ask you."
Xie Sen was a little curious: "You also work in the research institute?"
Xu Da was in a trance for a moment, then smiled and said, "I am a nominal staff member of the institute. After I retire from my job, I will study the plants I am interested in."
Xie Sen nodded and said, "So that's how it is."
Xu Da stood up and prepared to leave, but then he thought of something and reminded him, "By the way, many people have become suspicious of your identity. In the past few days, many people have called to inquire about Ma Qun, and he always gave vague responses. However, those people are smart and probably guessed it."
"Guess what?" Xie Sen asked.
"Of course I guessed that you are the owner of a plant-type contracted beast," Xu Da looked at him with a smile, with some teasing, "Based on my life experience, I can infer that more and more people will pursue you recently."
Xie Sen thought of the scene at Rui Luo's birthday party where someone inexplicably courted him, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "Not really, right?"
Seeing his ignorant look, Xu Da patiently explained: "The plant-type beast master has not appeared for a long time, not to mention the ability to give birth to offspring..."
"Cough cough cough..." Xie Sen was choked by his saliva. What the hell is giving birth to offspring?
Xu Da smiled knowingly. As a person who had experienced this, he could understand why young people without experience would be shy when hearing such a topic: "It's okay. You are an adult and can get married at any time. You should know more about physiological knowledge."
"Stop talking..." Xie Sen waved his hands speechlessly. He was a grown man, getting married? A ghost story?
Xu Da smiled and said, "In addition to the reasons I just mentioned, the plant-based beast master itself is a huge temptation for others, not to mention that your plants can provide extinct plants - peppers!"
At this point, he showed a puzzled expression: "I still don't understand where your potatoes came from?"
Xie Sen lied, half-truthfully, "Maybe my contracted plant is not a mimic beast but a mimic plant. It can disguise itself as any plant."
"Really?" Xu Da was stunned and even took a step closer to Xie Sen involuntarily.
"Haha, I'm kidding, there are only peppers and potatoes, nothing more!" Xie Sen said quickly.
Xu Da couldn't hide his excitement: "I have never seen such a magical plant contract beast in historical documents. If this is true, it would be great!"
Xie Sen poured cold water on him: "Don't be too happy. The biggest effect is just to produce fruits to improve my diet and enhance my combat effectiveness. It has little to do with others. You have already tried it. They can't be planted."
Xu Da came back to his senses, sighed and shook his head: "That's right."
After a while, he perked up again, looking at Xie Sen with shining eyes: "When are you going to make bacon jerky again? When are you going to make potato stew again? Make more, I'll buy it!"
Xie Sen shook his head, waking him from his sweet dream: "I won't do it recently."
He had already decided to activate the third plant on Saturday, and he wasn't prepared to expend any energy to ensure it.
Xu Da showed disappointment, then looked at him expectantly: "Then you must tell me when you do it!"
Xie Sen looked at him with amusement as he and Long Teng had the same expression when talking about food, and nodded: "Okay, but let me make it clear first, even if we are acquaintances, the money still cannot be less!"
"Of course, I won't do it if you don't want money!" He said, and couldn't help asking, "I see you go out early and come back late every day, are you working?"
"Well, I'm working at Gold Medal," he said, laughing, "I've been given a permanent job!"
Xu Da laughed out loud: "Not bad, not bad. If you encounter any difficulties at work, remember to look for me. I happen to know the boss of the gold medal company."
Xie Sen was surprised and asked, "Is there anyone you don't know?"
Xu Da laughed again, very modestly: "I am old now, so I must know more people than you. Well, I won't bother you any more," he said, his expression becoming serious: "If you have any new discoveries in plant cultivation, remember to inform me."
Xie Sen nodded: "Okay."
Xu Da left with relief. Xie Sen saw Xu Da off and went to the kitchen to cook dinner. While cutting meat, he called out in his mind: "Adan, Adan..."
"Asen, do you miss me?" A soft male voice sounded in my mind.
"Yeah," Xie Sen nodded very naturally, "I have something else to ask you." He repeated the fact that peppers and potatoes cannot be grown.
"Of course I can't plant them. I haven't found the red energy and yellow energy yet. They are now equivalent to dead objects."
Xie Sen paused while cutting meat and tilted his head in confusion: "Red energy and yellow energy, what are those?"
"That's my original energy." As soon as A Dan finished speaking, Xie Sen felt the peony on his right shoulder getting slightly warm. He turned on the faucet to rinse his hands, pulled down his collar, and a faint glow appeared on the surface of the five-colored peony.
Adam continued in his mind: "My body energy is composed of the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, which represent the five colors of white, green, black, red and yellow. Each energy corresponds to all the plants that represent the color. Peppers and potatoes belong to red energy and yellow energy. Only with the original energy can they have life and can be planted."
Xie Sen thought about his words for a long time, staring at the dull petals of the peony on his shoulder, and suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Does this mean that your energy is divided into five parts? If I want my body to fully recover, I must find all the energy?"
A Dan said vaguely: "Maybe..."
"What do you mean by not necessarily?"
A Dan raised his voice and advised: "Think positively about everything. Maybe there are two energies together? Besides, as long as you activate the three plants, I can feel the energy's location. It won't take long to find it!"
It added: "It's easy!"
I believe your lies! Xie Sen said without hope: "It is absolutely impossible for the same energy to be dispersed, right?"
A Dan was silent. Xie Sen asked again, and A Dan stammered, "It's not impossible, but the possibility is very small. Besides, it will definitely not be dispersed too much. It is more difficult to disperse the same energy than my own energy."
Xie Sen's eyes went dark. He felt that it would take him a very long time to fully recover. He couldn't help but said excitedly, "Your energy has been dispersed! How difficult can it be?"
"Asen, you're so fierce." A Dan accused aggrievedly.
It used a boy's voice, which sounded quite distressing. Xie Sen thought that its energy was dispersed because of saving him, and he felt guilty: "I'm sorry, I was wrong, you are right, we should think in a positive way, maybe all five energies are together! I have good news for you, I can activate the third plant the day after tomorrow!"
"Wow!" A Dan's voice did not sound aggrieved at all, but rather excited and full of energy. "Asen, you are awesome! Don't worry, for every energy you find, your uncontrollable time will be extended by four hours, and your body will get better too."
Xie Sen's eyes lit up. In other words, if he found one kind of energy, his safe time after waking up would become twelve hours. If he found two kinds, it would be sixteen hours! In this way, it would basically not affect his daily activities.
He breathed a sigh of relief, finally knowing some good news. He smiled and said, "That's good. I'll call you when I activate the third plant."
"Okay!" Adam agreed and went to sleep to replenish his energy.
"What kind of plant is this?" Maine's voice suddenly came from behind. Xie Sen was startled and turned around suddenly.
Maine was very close to him. When he turned around, they were almost touching each other. His heartbeat suddenly quickened and he subconsciously took a step back and bumped into the kitchen counter.
"How come you walk without making any sound?" He patted his chest and sighed softly.
Maine said, "You are too focused." He reached out and pulled down Xie Sen's collar on his right shoulder, exposing the peony that was covered by the cloth because Xie Sen let go. He asked again, "What kind of plant is this?"
"Peony," Xie Sen's shoulder was accidentally touched by his fingers, and he couldn't help but shiver. Maine looked at him strangely, "Cold?"
Xie Sen shook his head: "No," he slapped Maine's hand away, pulled up his collar, and said nonsense, "I'm hungry."
He turned around and continued cutting the meat: "Go wait outside for a while, dinner will have to wait a little longer."
Maine leaned on the table with his hands, tilted his head to look at him and asked, "Are all the plant-related animal patterns on the right shoulder?"
"I don't know." Xie Sen answered honestly.
Maine: "That's right. It's been a long time since a plant beast master appeared." He pondered for a moment, "The peppers and potatoes are grown by it?"
That's correct, Xie Sen nodded.
"The color it looks like seems a little wrong. Is it injured?" Maine asked again.
"I guess so." Xie Sen thought for a moment and took the opportunity to explain the situation. "It also has something to do with my body. Do you remember when I said my body needs to find something to heal it? It will tell me where those things are."
"I'll help you look for it." Maine said immediately.
Xie Sen put the cut meat into a large bowl, turned on the fire, and said while cooking dinner: "The location cannot be determined, maybe it is far away."
Maine suddenly reached out and grabbed his shoulder. He didn't use any force, but moved closer to Xie Sen, saying firmly, "No matter how far it is, I will go with you. You must tell me where you are going, and you are not allowed to leave alone!"
Xie Sen glanced at his tense face and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I will definitely tell you. I'm not the kind of person who would leave without saying goodbye." He shrugged his left shoulder, "Take your hand away, it's in the way."
Maine was satisfied, and she curled her lips slightly, taking her hand off his shoulder: "I am also planning to go out, but I haven't decided on a destination yet, so it's just right for me to go with you."
Xie Sen was shocked. What he feared most was that Maine would suddenly leave Star City. "Going out, what do you want to do?"
"Find a contracted beast." Maine looked sideways at the wound on his shoulder with a cold look in his eyes. "With a contracted beast, I will be even stronger."
Xie Sen glanced at him and asked the question he had been wanting to ask but hadn't dared to ask for the past two days: "Are you planning to... take revenge?"
"Of course," Maine said with a gloomy look in his eyes, "I don't care whether they like me or not, but I can't stand them deceiving me for so long, let alone..."
His tone became extremely low and dark, and Xie Sen instantly understood what he was going to say next. What's more, his father's death was closely related to the Kes family.
Maine concluded in a cold voice: "I won't let any of their family members go!"
Xie Sen quickly asked: "What do you want to do?"
Maine did not answer, but asked: "What do you think is the most painful thing?"
Xie Sen immediately said: "Definitely not death."
He didn't want Maine to retaliate against the Cox family by destroying them. He was worried that Maine would attack indiscriminately like in the book.
He quickly organized his words: "Death is only a matter of a moment. The real pain is standing on a high place and then falling to the dust. Everything you want and have is lost, and you are stepped on by people you look down on."
"You're right," Maine said, "Last night in the forest, I was madly wanting to send them all to hell, and then... I had the same idea as you."
Xie Sen was extremely surprised. What Maine meant by this was that even if he didn't say what he just said, he wouldn't use the extreme methods in the book?
And was Maine's change of mind due to him?
Xie Sen smiled and said, "We are of the same mind. However, the Kes family is very powerful. It will not be easy to deal with them."
"No rush," Maine said calmly, "We are still young, we can take it slow."
"Yes, and besides revenge, there are many other things worth doing," Xie Sen continued, curiously asking, "What is your dream? Is there anything you want to do?"
Maine looked at him intently. "When I was very young, all my friends had people to play with, but I didn't. I thought at the time that I would design a robot to play with me in the future."
"Later, I got used to being alone and didn't want a robot to play with me anymore. I realized that strength is the most reliable thing, so I wanted to design a robot that could fight with me."
"Now..." He paused, "I think you've always been here."
Xie Sen was stunned for a moment, his heart beating wildly. He laughed and said, "I said I would always be with you. Robots sound cool, and I am looking forward to you making them. Nowadays, robots are mostly used in factories. I think your idea is great. If you make it, you will definitely make money. It can be used as a way to accumulate funds. To deal with the Kes family, you must have enough money."
"Well, I have sorted out the design I made in college these past two days. I have a complete program for a child companion robot. In a few days, I plan to open a robot programming company and cooperate with a manufacturing company to jointly develop robots."
Xie Sen exclaimed: "So you've already thought about it! But why do you want to start the company in a few days? Don't you have enough money? I still have more than 500,000 yuan here, why don't you use it first?"
More than 200,000 of it was earned by asking Maine to borrow money.
Maine's lips curled slightly: "I have enough money, but I'm under 18 years old, so I can't start a company."
Xie Sen turned his head in disbelief: "You, are not yet eighteen? Not yet fully an adult?"
Maine nodded.
Xie Sen suddenly felt that people really cannot be compared with each other, it is completely self-abuse!
"You're so good!" He couldn't help but sigh, and suddenly felt that he was too green.
After saying that, he thought about what it meant that Maine was not yet eighteen, laughed, and jokingly said, "Hey, call me brother!"
