Chapter 18: Turnips
"Alright then, you go to the living room and sit down, and we'll talk about something until we're done. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info," Sang Yu said.
Hearing Sang Yu say this, Yu Xiaoyun walked to the living room and sat there and waited.
Xiaoyue came out of the kitchen and saw Yu Xiaoyun and invited him to eat together, Sang Yu glared, meaning that she still remembered what I just said. Yu Xiaoyun immediately said that he had only come after eating, because he had something to find Sang Yu, and he could wait for them to finish eating here. During the meal, Yu Xiaoyun kept looking for topics to chat with Xiaoyue.
"Tell me, what's the matter with you coming to me?" After eating, Sang Yu asked.
"The day before yesterday, when I went out to kill zombies with a team from my community, I heard them mention a mutated plant called turnip, saying that this plant can confuse mental perception. In the past few days, I have observed that zombies perceive the humans around them by their mental power, and if we can find this grass and plant it on a large scale, wouldn't it be possible to create a safe zone. Yu Xiaoyun said.
She hadn't heard of the turnip mulberry, but she did know that there was a tree called Tranquility, which emitted a spirit wave against the brain-eating worm, and the brain-eating worm would quickly lose its vitality in this spiritual wave. In the memories left by Mulberry Elm's ancestor, a planet he once traveled to was also infested with brain-eating insects, so if the people there wanted to preserve the corpses of humans, they would sprinkle sleeping leaves on them.
But there is no such plant on the earth, and Sang Yu guesses that there was no such thing as a brain-eating insect on the earth before, and if the earth was also infested with brain-eating insects hundreds of millions of years ago as it is now, then it is impossible not to mention brain-eating insects in the memory that has been inherited.
"Sounds like it's a good thing, so did you come to me and ask me to go with you to find it?" Sang Yu asked.
Yu Xiaoyun nodded, and Sang Yu asked again, "Do you have a clue as to where this plant grows?" ”
"Yes, I do have clues about this plant, but I didn't come to you to ask you to join me in search of the vanilla. We're looking for a plant called the Weeping Tree, which you should know about. Yu Xiaoyun said.
The weeping tree is a common mutant plant, after the plant is planted on a certain scale, if the wind blows through it under certain conditions, it will make a whining sound like a person crying, hence the name weeping tree. It is common for people to plant this plant in large quantities in cemeteries and then make it cry on special days to mourn their ancestors.
"What does this weeping tree have to do with turnips?" Sang Yu asked.
"As long as you bury enough worms under the roots of the weeping tree, soon a plant called Cordyceps will grow on the weeping tree, and the seeds that grow after this cordyceps are mature and planted in the ground are turnips. So as long as we find the weeping tree, then we find the turnip. Yu Xiaoyun said.
Yu Xiaoyun said that Sang Yu didn't know, and Sang Yu didn't ask him where he got this information, everyone has their own secrets, and Sang Yu also has her own secrets, she doesn't want others to be curious about her secrets, so she won't be curious about other people's secrets.
"In that case, then we really only need to find the weeping tree, but although the weeping tree was common on the earth at that time, I don't know if there is one now." Sang Yu said.
The information they obtained was hundreds of millions of years old, and after the degradation of these plants, some of them simply disappeared in the following catastrophes, and during this period, many new species appeared on the earth. How difficult it would be to find a plant on Earth based on data left hundreds of millions of years ago.
"Yes, my former university tutor was a well-known botanist, and I saw a plant in him that looked very similar to the weeping tree in my memory, and we can go and confirm it. This plant grows on Qingquan Mountain in the east of Qingshi City, so we just need to take some branches and plant them. Yu Xiaoyun said.
Now that he knows the location, Sang Yu has no problem with Yu Xiaoyun going to find this plant, after all, if this plant is really a weeping tree, then its significance is very significant. However, according to Yu Xiaoyun's information, this plant grew on the top of Qingquan Mountain before the end of the world, so it was not so easy to take.
Qingquan Mountain is the first choice of Qing City mountaineers and lovers before the end of the world, this mountain is more than 400 meters above sea level, the mountain is round, the slope is gentle, the big stones are all over the mountain, the shape is different, the natural atmosphere on the mountain is strong, there are not many artificial traces except for the mountain climbing path. The air is very good, the forests are abundant, the water is abundant, and there are wild animals everywhere. But that was before the end of the world, and now it's synonymous with danger, and they will never be able to get there.
"I don't have a problem with going with you to find the Weeping Tree, but I don't agree to go now, Qingquan Mountain is a famous mountain in our Qing City, I think you should know it well, there is rich vegetation and wild animals can be seen everywhere. And these two points in the last days mean that it is a paradise for mutated animals and plants. With our current capabilities, believe me, we will never be able to go 1,000 meters. Sang Yu said.
"The first order is indeed too weak, but I still hope to go earlier, you must know that this thing is not something that can be used when you get it back, it will have to be cultivated twice." Yu Xiaoyun said.
"Then you can't let me die." Sang Yu said very politely.
"Of course, even if you don't go, it's nothing, it's just that you're the most capable of anyone I know, and you're the one who has the hope of getting the Weeping Tree in the near future. You know, if it's a weeping tree, it means a lot to humanity. We will be able to have a safe place to live, and even transportation between cities will be restored, and family and friends will be reunited. And you have to know that plants also evolve, and the later you go, the more dangerous it becomes. Yu Xiaoyun said.
"Okay, okay, you really know how to say, you have to let me think about it, I'll give you an answer tomorrow, and even if I want to go, I have to wait until I reach the third order." Sang Yu said.
Yu Xiaoyun agreed, and then he returned to his previous cheerful and optimistic self-motivated young man, and went back after saying goodbye to Xiaoyue and Wang Yishui.
As for why Sang Yu had to wait for the third order before going, because the qi cultivation technique she cultivated had a very practical skill after his third order: assimilation. She can mimic the mental fluctuations of the plants in the forest, and anyone whose mental power is weaker than her cannot see through it. This way, she can avoid most of the mutant plants in the forest.
The next day, Yu Xiaoyun came again, and Sang Yu told him that she needed 10 hours to get herself up to the 3rd level, and during these 10 days, Yu Xiaoyun was responsible for providing her with food, and after 10 days, Sang Yu set off for Qingquan Mountain.
Yu Xiaoyun agreed, at this time he didn't know what kind of problem he promised, with her current appetite, she would eat at least 10 first-order mutant rats a day, and as her level increased, this amount of food would increase again. Sang Yu's situation is very abnormal, there are people she knows who have such a large amount of food, and others have a slightly larger appetite, but others have not become a wrestler like her.
Although Sang Yu knew that there might be something wrong with her body, she had no way to deal with this problem, so she could only meet the requirements of her stomach. Sang Yu had spent a lot of time on catching food before, otherwise she would definitely have more than this strength now.
Soon 10 days passed, and in these 10 days, Sang Yu was cultivating every day, while Yu Xiaoyun went out every day to look for mutant rats, and Xiaoyue and Wang Yishui would go with her every other day, because his strength alone would no longer be able to satisfy Sang Yu in the next few days.
Sang Yu really felt that this problem had to be solved quickly, otherwise it would affect the improvement of her strength very much, and she really couldn't stand spending a lot of time looking for food and eating food. In the past 10 days, someone has provided her with food and let her concentrate on cultivation, which is really cool. When the time of 10 days was up, Sang Yu was also promoted to the third-order intermediate level, she found that she did not have a suitable weapon before leaving, and with the big slashing force that Yu Xiaoyun had used, she decided to go to Yu Xiaoyun to ask for a machete.
