Today is a day when none of the adults are home.
Zhao Gang went out early in the morning to participate in voluntary labor, while the Meng brothers drove their truck to the Taoyuan base city, intending to first see if there were any domesticated dairy calves there.
If you can't buy it, then go to Jiangcheng.
The road connecting the planting area to Jiangcheng is not yet completed, so people have to take a detour to get there, which is too far and inconvenient.
The two brothers went to Taoyuan Base, which was much closer, and also bought some supplies that the patrol station didn't have.
Granny Meng went to Territory Number Nine, where the Lord of Territory Number Nine brought back a cage of mutated flying chicken chicks to raise. Granny Meng caught two fish from the pond, intending to go and learn from others how to raise flying chickens.
As the weather warms up, many hunting groups head into the mountains, and hunters can often be seen passing through the plantation areas within the territory.
With the roar of road construction machinery and the chatter of the road-paving lords, the planting area suddenly became lively with people coming and going.
However, ever since the Green Fairy settled in Zhao Xiaoxiu's house, almost no one has come to her house to recharge.
Only Sheng Qingyang comes every day, either in the morning to supervise his apprentice's practice progress, or in the evening after finishing a whole day's work to teach him some new skills. He comes and goes in a hurry.
Zhao Xiaoxiu used to hate that there were too many people chatting in front of her house, but now that it's finally quiet, she feels unaccustomed to the loneliness.
Fortunately, I have my lively and talkative friend Youyou who comes to visit every day, so I don't find it too boring.
After three consecutive days of planting, the branches of the Green Fairy were successfully planted all over the north, south, and east borders of the poplar grove in the territory.
These branches only absorbed a small amount of Zhao Xiaoxiu's diluted blood, so their growth rate was not as terrifying as the original body's, and they did not bloom.
However, Zhao Xiaoxiu was already very satisfied, feeling a strong sense of accomplishment that she had finally claimed her territory.
Now only the west side, near the main road, hasn't been planted yet. Zhao Xiaoxiu got up early to practice her swordsmanship and is just waiting for the recruits to come.
At 9:30 a.m. sharp, Youyou arrived to report for duty.
"Xiaoxiu! I brought the 'Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf' series. Let's watch it together in a bit!"
Youyou jumped off the centipede's back, put on her small backpack, and rushed straight towards the flower wall in the territory.
He was the only person who could enter Territory No. 13 directly without needing Lord No. 13's permission.
Anyone else who doesn't inquire about entering the territory will be stopped by the newly grown green wall that forms the border. Once those thorny branches entangle you, the toxins they release can instantly paralyze your nerves, causing sudden shock and death within five seconds.
A warning sign was placed at the entrance, written in childish handwriting: "Beware of the green wall. Please ring the bell to obtain the owner's permission before entering the territory, or you will be responsible for the consequences."
Next to the warning sign stands a three-meter-high wooden pole with a green, rusty copper bell hanging from it. A rope is attached to the bottom of the bell; when it is shaken, the bell rings, and the owner of the flower wall immediately knows that a guest is coming.
Youyou proudly stepped over the green wall and skipped into the beautiful flower wall full of various flowers, greeting the green fairy that swayed in front of her in a good mood.
As soon as they arrived in the yard, he excitedly took out the memory card for the "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" cartoon and wanted to share it with Zhao Xiaoxiu.
To his utter surprise, Zhao Xiaoxiu snatched his backpack, threw it into the pavilion, and grabbed him, running away.
"Where are we going?" Youyou asked, puzzled.
Zhao Xiaoxiu didn't say anything, but raised her hand and pointed forward. Monkey Sister was standing there waiting for them, holding a floating board, water, and planting tools.
Youyou's expression changed drastically. "Do we still need to plant cuttings?" He didn't want to plant any more!
Zhao Xiaoxiu patiently comforted her friend: "There's only a little bit left. Master said that you should finish what you start and not give up halfway. Just think, the two of us will plant a solid green wall with our own hands, and no mutated plants or animals will dare to come near it. How cool is that?"
"...Is it cool?" Youyou wavered a little, but Zhao Xiaoxiu didn't give him a chance to hesitate. She pushed the hoverboard up and told Monkey Sister to run fast.
Before long, the two children and the monkey arrived at the western border. One dug a hole and filled it with soil, while the other watered it, and they started working skillfully.
Although Youyou complained a little, she quickly became very motivated after Zhao Xiaoxiu praised her.
Monkey Sister and Youyou were working diligently, and with the recent influx of people, they didn't notice a furtive, hurried green figure sneaking into the southwest border.
As she ran, Green Shadow kept looking back, seemingly wary of something. She hurriedly ran to the foot of the southern hillside and frantically hid in a pit.
Zhao Xiaoxiu's ears twitched, and she suddenly stood up from the ground, turning her head in confusion to look behind her.
Was it footsteps? She wondered to herself, unsure.
But if you listen carefully, you can only hear the roar of road construction machinery all around.
Zhao Xiaoxiu frowned, her mind filled with doubt, and she was about to put down her hoe and go over to take a look.
Suddenly, the fierce roar of the monkey sister and the warnings of the two guards came from beside her. Zhao Xiaoxiu hurriedly turned around and saw that the monkey sister and the evolved centipede had suddenly started fighting for some reason.
Two guards tried to stop him, but Youyou dropped the water ladle and shouted worriedly, "Harry!"
Without a second thought, Zhao Xiaoxiu drew her sword and rushed forward, slapping the back of the blade against the arched centipede's head. Then, she turned around and kicked the leaping Monkey Sister away.
With a loud "thump!", Sister Monkey fell to the ground, leaving a long trail, and her buttocks instantly felt burning hot.
Harry shook his dizzy head back and forth on the road, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Youyou stared wide-eyed at Zhao Xiaoxiu, who stood menacingly between Harry and Monkey Sister, her mouth agape enough to fit a mutated bird egg the size of a fist.
Zhao Xiaoxiu was also surprised; her strength had increased a lot!
But it was only for a moment. After all, she had just eaten a large plate of tentacles not long ago and had been practicing her skills every day. It would be strange if her physical strength hadn't changed at all.
"Squeak!" Sister Monkey angrily accused Zhao Xiaoxiu of hitting it.
The two guards, being professionally trained, quickly recovered from their shock and calmed Harry, who was losing control due to dizziness.
The two main characters who were fighting were finally separated.
After understanding the situation, the male guard said, "Harry said the monkey was mocking it."
Monkey Sister nervously pounded her chest, and Zhao Xiaoxiu immediately knew who had started the fight.
Zhao Xiaoxiu knew her own monkey's temper perfectly well, so what could she do? She went up and apologized.
As she approached, Harry frantically pulled his legs back, feeling utterly terrified of the human cub in front of him!
Zhao Xiaoxiu had no choice but to apologize to Youyou.
Youyou closed her surprised mouth and quickly waved her hand, "N-nothing."
Zhao Xiaoxiu grinned at him, then turned to the pitiful-looking Monkey Sister. She immediately put on a fierce face, raised her knife, and warned her not to mock others indiscriminately in the future—no, not even evolved animals!
Sister Monkey was indignant, but remembering the kick she had just received, she had no choice but to lower her head.
Concentrating on resolving the feud between the two evolved animals, Zhao Xiaoxiu no longer remembered the footsteps she had vaguely heard earlier.
