Chapter 205
After burying himself properly, Yu Tu Miao suddenly realized that something was wrong.
He has only been studying plants for a year, which is not enough time for him to understand all the details about plants, such as the fact that plant roots can not only be used for walking, but also for receiving information.
Before, whether in the Plant Clan or in the school dormitory, the spiritual soil he used was specially made, delicious, nutritious, and could promote the growth of young trees, without any impurities. But the five-colored soil prepared by Olivia was obviously not processed at all, and the huge amount of information attached to the soil surged over in an instant. Yu Tu Miao shook his leaves and suddenly bent down, falling to the ground with a 90-degree posture.
If we must use a vivid metaphor, it is like a computer that is overloaded with information and crashes.
The desert rose that was shaking its leaves crazily more than ten meters away was also tired. He turned a flower and looked at the small tea tree seedling that had fallen to the ground. The words "As expected" were almost written on the petals.
The young tea tree sapling lay on the ground for a long time before its trunk finally stood up trembling and arching, displaying a flexibility that was not typical of a tree.
After finally straightening up, the young tea tree sapling twisted into a soft noodle like a drunk, its branches and leaves gathered together and then spread out, and finally... it successfully tied itself into a knot.
After Olivia placed the other three people at the designated training site, she came back and saw a group of more than one-meter-tall knotted tea tree seedlings swaying in the wind on a five-color plate with a diameter of ten meters.
Olivia's blue eyes showed an obvious smile: "It seems that you have adapted well. Have you even got your hair done?"
The knotted branches turned silently towards him, and every leaf sticking out from the cracks seemed to express confusion.
Olivia cast a magic circle of lightness under her feet, stepped over the five-colored soil and walked to the small tea tree seedling to untie its branches. When she pulled the branches out, several leaves fell from above and floated miserably to the ground.
"It seems that you haven't tried any soil other than the special spiritual soil..." Olivia smiled, "Unprocessed soil contains a lot of information."
He pointed in the direction of the Yutu tree roots and said, "When it transforms into its original form, you can think of it as your external brain. It will tell you what is contained in the soil. The information is mixed, so you must learn to guide and distinguish it, and selectively receive it."
"Of course—" Olivia smiled like a devil, "The information about soil is all-encompassing, such as whether there have been dead people buried in this soil, whether there have been animals rotting in it, whether there has been fertilizer produced in it..."
Feeling the stiffness of the tea tree seedling under her palm, Olivia thoughtfully plucked off a shaky leaf for him: "As long as you can distinguish the useful information from these five types of soil taken from different places with an accuracy rate of 80%, this month's training can be completed early."
He patted the branches of the young tea tree saplings and said: "After all, I am not a devil teacher~"
As he finished speaking, the edges of the remaining leaves of the young tea tree saplings began to turn a burnt color.
Olivia turned a blind eye, left the five-color plate where Yu Tamiao was, and walked towards Robert.
The desert rose, which had finally calmed down after the frenzy, was so frightened that it folded its flowers, and the red flowers turned white in an instant.
"I know you've been looking forward to Yu Tu's arrival these days so that you can copy his homework. But although the five earth colors of blue, red, yellow, white and black are the same, I didn't dig them from the same place." Olivia's eyes were like bright sapphires in the sun, and her smiling face was like an angel, but her words made the plants shudder. "Do you understand now? My dear Robert?"
The desert rose repeated the experience of the small tea tree seedling. It fell to the ground at a 90-degree angle, raising a cloud of dust. It trembled and raised a branch with a white flower on it and shook it to show its surrender.
Olivia snorted and laughed: "Work hard, Robert. I don't allow any shortcuts here."
*
The knotted branches and leaves were untied, and Yu Tu didn't even care about the leaves that fell off. Overwhelmed by the large amount of information in the soil, he now had only one feeling - dizziness.
It's like riding a crazy roller coaster ten times and then riding a pendulum. The pendulum sends you to a pirate ship halfway, shakes you around three times and then drops you on a bungee jumping platform. Then it spins on the spot a hundred times and then sends you to a not very safe ship sailing in strong winds and waves at the speed of light.
Yu Tu's mind was like a fuzzy mess, and he felt dizzy. He couldn't even tell which were his roots, which were his branches, and which were his leaves. Fortunately, plants don't have mouths, otherwise Yu Tu would have vomited all over the floor.
Now he finally understood why Robert reacted like that...it really made the plants feel miserable!
Yu Tu tried hard for a while, and finally sent the correct instructions of his consciousness under the impact of a large amount of information—his roots were under his feet, not on the top of his head or on the tips of his leaves.
With great difficulty, he pulled the four roots out of the red, yellow, white and black soils and plunged them all into the green soil. The chaotic and huge flow of information stagnated, and although it was still complicated and dizzying, it was much better.
The emphasis on rooting all five types of soil at the beginning was to give him a head start! Damn teacher Olivia!
Yu Tu Miao dropped a leaf in anger.
He endured the nausea and dizziness and tried hard to feel the information in the green soil. After the impact of five pieces of information was reduced to one, Yu Tu's consciousness finally had room to breathe. The spiritual attribute of the green soil tends to be wood, and it is also the soil that Yu Tu can receive a little more smoothly in the chaos.
According to the science of the surface world, soil contains aluminum and iron elements. If it is soaked in water for a long time, the soil will appear blue-black, which is commonly known as "blue soil". Blue soil is rich in nutrients and minerals and is often found in low mountains and hills.
But for the science of the inner world, the reason for the formation of green soil is similar to the above. The only difference is that because the soil contains wood aura, while retaining the characteristics of green soil, it also retains the disordered "memories" attached to the green soil, like fragments.
What Yu Tu needs to do now is to sort out these "memories", classify them according to their importance, and understand which ones are needed and which ones are not, which ones should be discarded when contacted, and which ones need to be considered.
Yu Tu knew that Teacher Olivia could not teach him how to distinguish the information in the soil because he was a mermaid, not a plant, so Yu Tu had to figure everything out on his own.
Thinking about the huge workload in Green Soil, and there are five copies of this huge workload, he felt a sense of urgency that time was not enough—80% of the information volume is also a big project!!!
The young tea tree sapling quickly adjusted its mindset and threw itself into its studies with great effort. However, the desert rose, which was more than ten meters away from it, was digging its trunk in the ground, making the soil a mess, but it was unwilling to get up and face the cruel and cold reality that "it had high expectations, but ended up having no homework to copy and no loopholes to exploit."
All the beautiful flowers of the desert rose have withered, giving the whole plant a kind of decadent beauty that feels like "it's okay to die, it's okay to live."
It was dark, and while Yu Tu Miao was trying to discern the message in the green soil, the desert rose was spreading its branches and leaves in sorrow;
It was late at night. As Yu Tu Miao tried to discern the message in the green soil, the desert rose continued to spread out its branches and leaves sadly.
At dawn, when Yu Tu Miao was still trying to discern the information in the green soil, the desert rose turned itself over and continued to spread its branches and leaves...
"Olivia, look--" the familiar loud voice echoed through the two five-color plates after dawn, "Robert is being lazy--"
The desert rose, which had turned itself over evenly four times in one night to bask in the moonlight, suddenly stood up straight and sprang up from the messy soil at an incredible speed, with its branches, leaves and flowers all retracted and straightened as if it was standing in a military posture.
Plants have a 360-degree field of vision, and the startled Desert Rose soon discovered that there was no one around Bella the Black Crow that flew down from the sky.
really---
"Robert is so stupid——" Bella landed on the edge of the five-color plate, "coward——"
The desert rose shook its branches angrily, but they were too short to reach.
Bella laughed even louder: "It's not enough - it's not enough -"
Robert plucked his own flower and threw it accurately, hitting Bella the Black Crow on the head.
The desert rose is a plant of the Cyperaceae family. It has a non-toxic smell, but one cannot come into contact with its juice. Robert is a desert rose that can transform. When it is angry, the toxicity increases n times. Bella turned on one foot three times on the spot, and then fell to the ground with a thud. The juice of the desert rose is not fatal to Bella, nor is it too dangerous, but it can embarrass her.
As a magical creature that had signed a contract, Olivia was the first to notice the change in Bella's state. A magic circle emerged out of thin air next to the five-color disk, and Olivia appeared in the magic circle.
Olivia lowered his head, and Bella's ostrich-like appearance came into his sight.
Olivia: “…”
He pulled Bella's head out of the soil, and there seemed to be a mosquito coil in Bella's eyes - she was poisoned.
Olivia sighed, and with her fingertips she drew out a healing magic circle. Bella's drooping wings soon regained strength. She flapped her wings and jumped onto Olivia's shoulder, accusing loudly, "The bad rose bullies the crow—"
"I think you are just too idle." Olivia, who knew Robert and Bella's personalities well and was proficient in the temporary retracing magic circle, was not confused at all. He turned his head and looked at Bella, "From today on, you will also learn."
Bella: "...Gah?!"
