Chapter 85 Chapter 85 The angel looked at the sunflower...
The angel looked at the sunflower and said, "This is indeed a mutant sunflower that the angel planted. But what do you want to do with it?"
Killing is a kind of disposal, taking it back is a kind of disposal, burning it is a kind of disposal, and waking it up can also be considered a disposal. There are many ways to deal with it. Which one do you want?
"Let this sunflower return to its normal state," Bai Tianming thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "and then find a place for it to stay. I won't take it away, okay?"
The angel thought for a moment and said, "It's not impossible. If you're willing to give it to me, I can help you with it. It's free, and you can watch the whole process."
"Okay then," Bai Tianming stuffed the sunflower into his hand and said without hesitation, "This is for you."
Angel was stunned for a moment, then took the sunflower and was stunned for a moment. He looked down at the sunflower, examined it, and smiled at Bai Tianming, "Are you really giving it to me? This kind of thing is very expensive out there. You really don't want it? Are you really giving it to me? Don't regret it!"
Bai Tianming waved his hand and said, "You won't regret it. Just take it. I won't be using it."
The angel nodded thoughtfully, "True. This kind of thing is very difficult to control when it goes crazy. Unless you pay an angel or have it delivered directly, it won't be cheap either way. If you can't use it, it would be a waste of money to keep it. It's quite a shame."
He put the sunflower in his pocket, looked at Bai Tianming and asked, "I'll take it. Will you come in with me?"
"Okay," Bai Tianming nodded. "It's a good opportunity to see how you guys handle it. It'll broaden my horizons." Although he'd seen plenty of things, one more look wouldn't hurt. It's free entry, so why not take a look?
If he had to pay, he would have turned around and left.
The angel smiled at Bai Tianming and said, "Let's go."
Bai Tianming nodded and waved to Enoch. Enoch hurriedly followed Bai Tianming, and the two of them followed the angel into the botanical garden.
The angel walked forward, pushed open a door along the path, and led them in. This place looked like a greenhouse, specially used for growing plants that are more difficult to survive.
There were already some angels inside, and they seemed to be checking the plants. When they saw someone coming in, they took a look and greeted the angel in front with great respect.
It seems that the angel Bai Tianming picked at the door has a high status among them.
The angel found a dug hole, threw the sunflower in, covered it with soil, stepped on it twice, put the shovel aside, clapped his hands, picked up the kettle, poured two laps of water, and said to Bai Tianming, "Okay, even if you go crazy in the future, there are angels nearby to deal with it. You won't make a fuss, and you probably won't come back to your side in the future. Don't worry."
Bai Tianming nodded, seeming to understand. He knew nothing about the mutant plants planted by the angel. After hearing what the angel said, he felt that the matter seemed to be resolved. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Then can I leave?"
"Yes," the angel nodded, "Do you want me to send someone to escort you out?"
Bai Tianming waved his hand quickly: "No need, I know the way."
The angel smiled and said, "Okay then, bye."
Bai Tianming nodded and walked out with Enoch. Before they completely left the botanical garden, the ground suddenly shook.
Bai Tianming squatted down and touched the ground. He felt something growing rapidly under the ground. He frowned and felt a little confused.
At the same time, a small crack appeared in the ground, and a thin plant root emerged from the crack. It touched Bai Tianming's hand, quickly turned pink, and swayed on the ground like a windmill.
In the blink of an eye, the long root system quickly retracted like a snake, flattened like a dehydrated cat's eye snail, and disappeared in a flash.
Enoch rushed over and held Bai Tianming's hand that had just been touched by the plant roots. He frowned tightly, his face pale. He took out a handkerchief and wiped the part of Bai Tianming that was touched by the plant. He was inexplicably panicked, like a cat frightened by a snake, and asked, "What did that thing do to you? How could it do this? What is it doing? What is it doing?"
Bai Tianming patted Yinuo and comforted him, "It's okay, it's just a bump."
Enoch had a mournful look on his face, his brows furrowed tightly, as if someone had thrown a handful of snowballs in the winter, and the snowball had landed right in his collar. He was practically trembling, stamping his feet fiercely, as if he couldn't wait to grab the plant and cut it in half. He angrily said, "Plants eat with their roots, and it practically stole a kiss from you! How could it be like this? It's too much! So rude! So abominable!"
As he spoke, his eyes turned red, perhaps out of anger or anxiety, as if he was about to cry. He choked and could hear his own voice. Realizing that he was a little too emotional, he quickly withdrew his hand, turned his head, faced away from Bai Tianming, took two deep breaths, and finally calmed down.
Bai Tianming patted him and said softly, "Okay, okay, the plant is gone. Don't worry about it."
Enoch, who had been trying to calm down, couldn't help crying when he heard Bai Tianming's comfort. He hugged Bai Tianming tightly, like a golden retriever trying to get into the nest where he slept when he was a few months old. He buried his head in Bai Tianming's arms, crying and sobbing, and said in a complaining tone: "That's not a good thing! Don't like it!"
"I don't like it, I don't like it," Bai Tianming patted his back to comfort him, "Okay, okay, don't cry. It's just a touch, isn't it? It's nothing serious. That thing isn't poisonous."
Bai Tianming tentatively touched Enoch's forehead, suspecting that he was poisoned. He cried even louder, tears falling like a flood that broke through a dam.
His face flushed red, as if with shame, grievance, and a little bit of anger, and he shouted, "I'm not poisoned!"
Bai Tianming quickly said, "No, no, it's just that you seem a little too excited right now. You were..."
Bai Tianming hesitated to speak: "You haven't been like this before."
I never saw you cry so sadly when you were about to die before. What’s the point of you crying like this now?
Wait, Bai Tianming suddenly became alert. Could it be that the plant had released something nearby? While it might not be poisonous, it could affect people's emotions, so that's not impossible.
Bai Tianming immediately checked Enoch and found that he seemed to be affected by something, so he immediately cleared it for him.
Enoch was stunned for a moment and wiped his face. His face was covered with tears from crying. His face immediately turned red. He turned his head and quickly wiped the remaining tears from his face, feeling a little embarrassed.
He turned his back to Bai Tianming and said vaguely, "I was a little too excited just now. I'm sorry."
"No need to apologize for this, right?" Bai Tianming smiled.
Yinuo responded, turned around, lowered his head, not daring to look at Bai Tianming's face, and asked tentatively: "Are we leaving now?"
Bai Tianming glanced at the direction of the crack on the ground, frowned, and said worriedly, "I'm afraid we can't leave for the time being. If anything happens to them, it's better for us to help them."
"Then let's go back." Enoch nodded in complete agreement.
The two returned to their starting point.
The angels were lying all over the place inside, looking as if they had been knocked unconscious. The air was filled with a strange smell, a bit like mushroom spores and a bit like the smell of rotten oranges, which would spray out colored particles if you pressed them lightly.
In the middle of this building, a huge plant grew out, sensing the air in mid-air with its fresh, long vines, waving like octopus tentacles.
There used to be all kinds of small plants planted in that place, but now those small plants have been overturned and are lying on the ground, motionless, as if they are dead, but their colors have not completely faded, and there seems to be a little hope of saving them.
Bai Tianming took a step forward and was about to check the condition of the nearest plant. Before he could reach out his hand, a thick fog suddenly came over.
He took half a step back, waved his hands in front of his eyes, coughed, and suddenly felt that the situation in front of him had changed. He raised his head and looked around. It seemed that he was no longer in the botanical garden, and Enoch, who had been following him, was nowhere to be seen.
In front of him was an old, dark, and eerie ancestral hall.
The threshold was not high and was made of wood, painted red on the surface, but the color was somewhat mottled, showing the traces of the passage of time, revealing the gnawed wood chips inside, as if they would scatter like straw if touched accidentally.
There were some traces of glue on the edge of the door, as if something had been pasted on it before, but it was torn off. Finally, after being weathered by wind and rain, only this little bit of glue was left, which looked sloppy and pitiful.
Bai Tianming frowned and looked inside the door. There was no light inside, it was pitch black, but on the black altar stood a flickering candle, trembling and flickering in the wind, as if it would go out in the next second, or like an eye peeking through the crack in the corner of the wall.
In front of the altar stood a dusty cushion, on which a man was kneeling, prostrating himself with his forehead touching the ground. A gust of wind suddenly blew by, and the trembling candle suddenly went out. The entire ancestral hall was plunged into darkness. The man inside did not raise his head, but from his back he looked inexplicably familiar.
Bai Tianming frowned and looked at him for a while, and suddenly recognized that it was the priest Abel from long ago.
He opened his eyes, but before he could make a sound, a gust of wind blew past him again.
