Chapter 3 The Clone of the Ancient Tree
The morning sun rises over the mountains in the distance, golden in color, but not dazzling at all.
Li Ming, who had slept all night, woke up from his dream and was lying on the table looking at the sun outside the window in a daze.
Although I still couldn't believe what happened yesterday, the small turquoise fork was on the table in front of me.
As soon as his soul moved, Li Ming's soul really entered the body of the little tree fork, and when he moved again, he returned to his body.
Li Ming sighed: I really didn't dream last night.
Taking a closer look at the little tree fork, Li Ming found that the kind of dew that restored his body last night had reappeared.
Except for the dew on the topmost leaf, which was used up by itself last night and did not produce again, the other eight leaves have one drop of such dew.
Li Ming guessed that it might be that every leaf could produce a drop of dew every night.
Li Ming lay on the table, looking at the crystal clear dew on the eight leaves, and didn't know what the use of this thing was.
His fingers gently fiddled with the leaves, and suddenly, Li Ming accidentally let a drop of dew slip off the leaf and landed right on the cactus ball used to purify the air next to the computer desk.
As this drop of dew entered the cactus, Li Ming's ears seemed to hear a slight cracking sound.
The cactus in front of me seemed to be a balloon that someone was blowing, and it was rapidly expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it expanded to twice the size of the original in one breath.
Looking at this cactus, which was bigger than a flower pot, Li Ming couldn't believe that this was really made of the dew on the leaves.
Li Ming remembered that the vendor who sold him the cactus balls said that this kind of cactus balls grew very fast, and they could grow to double their original growth in almost a year.
Looking at the cactus ball in his hand, Li Ming thought in his heart, that is to say, a drop of spiritual liquid can instantly accelerate the growth of plants for a year.
Li Ming sighed, where is this dew, it is spiritual liquid at all.
At this time, the chaotic footsteps in the corridor sounded, and after looking at the time, Li Ming found that it was time to go to work.
Hurriedly put the remaining seven drops of spiritual liquid into a mineral water bottle that he had drunk by himself, and then hid the small fork in his clothes, Li Ming pretended to be working.
Wang Qiang and ** thought that they were the first to arrive at the unit, but they didn't expect to open the door and see Li Ming already sitting in the seat.
The two couldn't help but be surprised in their hearts, glanced at each other, and took the lead in saying: "Hey, isn't this Brother Li, who came so early." ”
Looking at the ** with a hint of schadenfreude in his eyes, Li Ming was too lazy to see such a villain.
In the office, there are many such villains, they are used to climbing high and stepping low, and today you are famous, he will definitely compliment you like a dog.
However, if you are unlucky one day, he will never mind stabbing you in the back again, and you don't have to pay too much attention to such a person.
Hearing the mocking tone, Li Ming said indifferently: "I got up early today, so I came first." ”
** The words were originally thorny, and they deliberately knocked on the side to say that Li Ming was unlucky, but I didn't expect Li Ming to have such an indifferent attitude.
**Sneered in my heart: Let your kid pretend to be high, in another three months, I want to see if you can pretend to be able to pretend on the day you are dismissed by Zeng Ruo.
When Wang Qiang passed by Li Ming's side, he just politely greeted Li Ming and returned to his seat.
Seeing Wang Qiang's attitude, Li Ming knew in his heart that he must have known what Zeng Ruo had done to him, and he didn't dare to say anything to himself, worried that if he was seen by other people in the unit, he would go to Zeng Ruo to complain.
After a while, the colleagues of the production department came to the unit one by one, a total of more than ten people, most of them walked past Li Ming without looking at Li Ming, and only two or three people politely greeted Li Ming.
Li Ming knew that he was a plague god now, and whoever said a few more words to himself would definitely be unlucky.
Seeing that everyone was chatting with each other but no one was talking to him, Li Ming was also happy that no one cared about him, and devoted all his thoughts to this small fork and the remaining seven drops of spiritual liquid.
Just as Li Ming was sitting in front of the computer and closing his eyes and pondering, suddenly, the little girl Xu Qing quietly appeared from behind Li Ming and secretly patted Li Ming's left shoulder.
Li Ming looked back to the left, but he didn't see anything, and when he looked to the right, he saw the cute little expression of the little girl snickering.
I wanted to gently knock on the little girl's forehead, but when I thought of my current identity as a plague god and the surprised eyes of everyone in the office, Li Ming pretended to be calm and said, "Is there something wrong?" ”
picked up a pen in his hand and wrote a note: Girl, so many people in the office are watching, don't show too good a relationship with your brother, be careful that they go to Zeng Ruo to complain.
Originally, Xu Qing was a little sad when she saw Li Ming's cold attitude, thinking that her behavior just now made Li Ming unhappy.
Seeing the note in Li Ming's hand, the little girl instantly understood Li Ming's concerns, smiled at Li Ming with a small face, and said with concern in that cat-like weak voice: "Brother Li Ming~, where did you go yesterday, I couldn't find you after work, so I'm easy to find." ”
Li Ming didn't expect the little girl to be so good to her, and she didn't care about others suing her, but the more the little girl was like this, the more Li Ming was worried that the little girl would be targeted.
Write on the note again: Go get busy first, don't let your brother worry about you.
But he said: "It rained heavily after going up the mountain yesterday, I thought it was a thunderstorm to find a place to hide for a while, but I didn't expect the rain to get heavier and heavier, and when the rain stopped, it was already night, and I missed the last train." ”
After seeing the note, the little girl nodded knowingly and said, "Then you are busy, I will also go to work." ”
After speaking, he left with brisk steps.
Xu Qing's little girl has been in the unit for two years, and with her beautiful appearance and cute expression, she has always been the most popular girl among male compatriots in the unit in addition to the goddess of the unit.
Even if the more than a dozen people in the production department are married, they also love Xu Qing's little beauty.
Now seeing that the little beauty is so good to Li Ming, the plague god, some people can't help it.
Taking advantage of Xu Qing's departure, ** took the lead in provocatively saying to Li Ming: "Oh, it turns out that Brother Li didn't catch the car last night to live in the unit, no wonder Wang Qiang and I saw Brother Li sitting on the table when we first came in the morning, it turned out that we disturbed Brother Li's good dreams." ”
There was a burst of laughter.
Li Ming knew that if he continued to stay in the house, he would definitely become the object of ridicule from everyone, so he was too lazy to listen to the nonsense of these people, and he didn't go to see **, so he packed up his things and walked towards the mountain alone with a small fork, and continued today's work - patrolling the mountain.
It wasn't until noon that Li Ming came down from the mountain, I don't know if it was the reason for the drop of spiritual liquid, Li Ming walked all morning, his forehead was only slightly sweaty, and his back was only a little wet.
If it was as usual, if he walked down like this, Li Ming would have to be soaked and sweating profusely.
I wanted to go directly to the cafeteria to eat, but the phone rang, and when I picked it up, I saw that it was Xu Qing's little girl calling.
My heart was instantly surrounded by warmth, and after connecting, Li Ming said softly: "Little girl, what are you looking for my brother." ”
The little girl said mysteriously: "Brother Li Ming~, don't go to the cafeteria yet, you wait for me in the office, and after everyone in the building has gone to eat, I will go to your house to find you." ”
After speaking, without waiting for Li Ming to ask the reason, the little girl hung up the phone.
Looking at the phone that was hung up, Li Ming said, since the little girl said so, Li Ming returned to the house and waited.
It just so happened that the people in the production department were going to eat in the cafeteria.
When everyone saw Li Ming coming back, everyone had a trace of disdain on their faces, and they passed by Li Ming, and no one greeted Li Ming.
Seeing everyone's attitude towards him, Li Ming didn't bother to take care of them, so he returned to his seat alone to rest, and by the way, he looked at the small turquoise fork he hid in his clothes.
Not long after, when all the people in the office building went to the canteen to eat, the sound of light footsteps came, and Li Ming looked back and saw that it was indeed a little girl who came.
Li Ming was about to ask why, but the little girl made a silent gesture, and pulled Li Ming quietly out of the office building, went around to the back of the office building, and came all the way to the little girl's dormitory.
Li Ming didn't know what the little girl was going to do, so he followed the little girl into the dormitory, and after seeing the little girl close the door, he patted his little chest and said with a scared look: "Little girl, what are you going to do." ”
Xu Qing blinked her big eyes, pointed to her bed and said, "Let you sleep, I must have slept very badly when I sat on a stool last night, lie down on it and sleep for a while, I'll help my brother cook." ”
After speaking, the little girl pulled Li Ming and sat on her bed.
As soon as the little girl's words spoke, Li Ming's head exploded, Li Ming really didn't expect that the little girl was so considerate and so kind to herself.
When she reacted, Li Ming had been pulled by the little girl to sit at the head of her bed, smelling the fragrance in the room and the fragrance of the girl on the bed, and then thinking that she had just walked for a morning, and her clothes were full of sweat and dust, Li Ming was embarrassed to lie on the little girl's bed anyway.
Hurriedly stood up, and said to Xu Qing at a loss: "Sister, this is not good, my brother just came down from the mountain, covered in dirt and sweat, his body is too dirty, I slept in your bed, but it smells, how do you sleep at night, I'd better go back." ”
Xu Qing grabbed Li Ming's arm, and said with a cute little face with a strange expression: "Brother~, it's okay, you can lie down quickly." ”
Li Ming wanted to leave, but Xu Qing's hands firmly grasped his arm, looking at the stubborn little expression on the little girl's face, Li Ming knew that if he didn't go with the little girl's wishes today, he wouldn't be able to leave.
