Chapter VII: Fraud

The tree removal project has been going on for three days, and more than 100 trees of all sizes are piled up on a meadow not far away.

Cheng Ming chose some ones of similar thickness, asked someone to trim them slightly, and simply set up a triangular tent, wrapped in some straw and cloth, which looked a bit like an Indian.

This is Cheng Ming's makeshift laboratory, where he is tinkering with those little mice.

With the support of essence, the lower cell division no longer needs to absorb the nutrients from the parasite, and the transformation of the parasite can be completed in the blink of an eye.

The reason why it was given the name of a parasite is really because it is too vivid.

Mice that have been completely transformed by lower cells can no longer be called mice in nature.

Cheng Ming sat there motionless, only staring at one of the little mice with his eyes.

I saw that the mouse shook its body, and the tail of the dead buckle was naturally broken, and there was no blood at the end.

The little mouse fell to the ground and flicked its tail, and the broken part suddenly swelled, and the tip of the tail grew back little by little.

Seeing that the mouse suddenly got the gecko's magic skill, Cheng Ming was also a little surprised.

The simple replication and division of the lower cells can reach this level.

You don't even need to be distracted when you are growing, you only need to move your mind, and the lower cells will automatically regenerate.

Cheng Ming's heart moved, stretched out his hand, and the little mouse naturally crawled into the palm of his hand.

"My consciousness is always the highest priority, interesting!"

Cheng Ming sent a wisp of sperm over, and the little mouse shook its body, and it grew larger at a speed visible to the naked eye.

From the beginning, it was only a palm-sized mouse, and it only took a few seconds to grow to two hands to hug each other.

Cheng Ming put the big mouse on the ground, it only took two steps, and suddenly stopped moving.

Cheng Ming frowned slightly, "The body is too big, the heart can't bear it, so what about shrinking?" ”

With the extraction of essence, the big rat emaciated at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a large number of cells in its body were consumed, and soon fell to the ground like a dried corpse, and finally simply turned into a pile of white ash.

Cheng Ming carefully distinguished, the essence seemed to be missing, and it seemed that the metabolic consumption of the rat itself was very serious.

Remove the two little mice again, close them together between their palms, and open them again after a few moments, revealing a larger mouse.

The mouse was placed on the ground and observed for a while, with no unusual reaction.

"Can it be reconstituted directly at the cellular level? As long as the cells are aligned correctly, there is no problem for two mice to synthesize one, if so... ”

Cheng Ming took down a little mouse again, but first catalyzed and amplified the little mouse, and then he didn't see any movement, only to see that the little mouse's body stiffened slightly, and there was a calcification reaction from the bottom up, as if it had been hit by Hancock's petrified eye, and it turned into a sculpture in the blink of an eye.

Reaching out and knocking, there was a distinctly bony crisp sound.

Cheng Ming thought about it, took the little mouse that had completely turned into bones in his hand, and made a pressing motion.

The bone was really softened like dough, and gradually formed a thin sheet of uniform thickness.

found the law, Cheng Ming simply gave up the assistance of external forces, and directly manipulated the bone cells to reorganize, and the thin sections gradually deformed, forming a small and delicate axe.

The edge is sharp, the surface is smooth and natural, and the axe handle has wooden lines, if not with a bone-like paleness, it is simply a real axe.

Taking this axe and looking left and right, Cheng Ming smiled.

"I see, this has solved a lot of trouble."

Grabbing a branch and throwing it out of the tent, several small mice fell and scattered into the forest.

"I'm pretty much on the idea, now let me see what nature thinks!"

-----

Two days later, Sun Jiuniang returned, bringing with a cart of ingredients and a gagged Lang Zhong with his limbs tied.

The guys were not surprised, Cheng Ming asked a little more, and the proprietress replied very simply.

"Who let this old boy push back, the old lady has already spoken first, give more medical fees, carriage pick-up, and he also pretended to be a trick for me. I was not used to his stinky problem, and I got it directly. ”

Cheng Ming was speechless for a while.

Fortunately, the situation is stronger than people, and Na Langzhong is not dead-eyed, he honestly treated him for a few days, and Lao Xi'er's injury is really much better.

Sun Jiuniang was overjoyed and rewarded a few taels of silver and put Lang Zhong back.

Lao Xi'er escaped death, and the guys were very happy and went to visit.

Cheng Ming also showed his face in the past, which meant it simply.

His main energy is still on renovating the yard, going around the construction site a few times a day, and assigning some tasks to Dong Hua and Zhang Dadao. More than a dozen people worked together, and the speed of construction was not slow, and in less than ten days, the ground had almost leveled.

On this day, Cheng Ming invited Sun Jiuniang over.

"Boss, look, I'm going to set up another two-entry yard here, east and west wings, east and west ear rooms, plus the front porch and back porch, master bedroom and living room, and then build two rows of lower rooms, basically we can fit all the people in our store into it."

Sun Jiuniang glanced at Cheng Ming, and then at Zhang Dadao and others who were in full swing on the side. They were sharpening the ends of the split trees with strange tools and smashing them into the ground with a rudimentary stone hammer, as if they were making the walls of the wooden house.

There is already a simple wooden house next to it, which is more than 20 square meters in size, and has not yet been capped.

"You want to build this yard with just these few people?"

"Naturally not, to build a house, you still have to hire a carpenter and a stonemason. It's just a temporary stay. ”

"Want me to spend money? No way! ”

Sun Jiuniang said it categorically, and there was no room for negotiation at all.

Cheng Ming was a little crying and laughing, and said: "It's not for you to spend money, but I want to ask you for leave to go to Mengzhou City." ”

"You are a foreigner, you are not familiar with the place, can you find someone?"

"So I'm going to borrow someone from you!"

"Who?"

"That liar!"

"No, it's minced buns!"

Cheng Ming smiled, "Boss, you are still using me as a child." Although I haven't been here for a long time, I have understood some things.

Selling steamed buns in the name of a shop in Shilipo, eleven out of ten people dare not eat them. You're a money-hungry character, don't stare at you, I'm complimenting you. With your character, are you willing to throw away a dozen catties of white flour every two days?

Besides, you kill people to make stuffing, where are the human bones? The whole inn is so big, how can there be a smell of blood, and you can't hide it. And every time you throw away the buns, they disappear inexplicably. Could it be that we have a land father-in-law in Shilipo who specializes in eating steamed buns? ”

Sun Jiuniang looked at Cheng Ming without saying a word.

Cheng Ming said with a smile: "The boss lady lent me the liar for use, and I promise not to ask a word that I shouldn't ask." ”

Sun Jiuniang turned around and left, with a strange expression, and scolded in a low voice: "It's as fine as a monkey, there is a dragon species in the loach pit, it's really a ghost!" ”

At night, Cheng Ming sat in a simple wooden hut with his eyes closed and recuperated, in front of him was a very rough wooden table, on which were teapots and bowls.

A starry sky had already appeared in his sea of consciousness, and each point of light represented a creature that had been completely transformed by a lower cell.

More than 100 little mice, which have been released in a row for more than ten days, have blossomed and borne fruit.

They either ate a large amount of food to provide Cheng Ming with essence. Or it can become the food in the mouths of other animals, infecting the organisms at the top of the food chain, and then expanding the circle of erosion of the lower cells again.

The transmission of lower cells is somewhat like a virus, but it is more powerful than a virus, and with the support of essence, no opponent can contend with it.

A large number of creatures in the back mountain were quickly infected, and a large amount of essence qi gathered, and the clouds and mist in Cheng Ming's body had become denser and denser, and they could almost turn into water.

Cheng Ming had a hunch that the liquid essence was still useful. It's a little short, and we'll have to wait.

Cheng Ming opened his eyes, picked up the teapot and poured two cups of tea, took a sip of a cup, and said lightly: "You have been hesitating outside for a long time, do you want to drink a cup of tea before continuing?" ”

The wooden door clicked open softly, and a man walked in.

He was a little restrained, and he didn't even dare to look at Cheng Ming's eyes, obviously he had an explanation from the proprietress before coming.

Cheng Ming pushed the teacup in his direction, made a gesture of please, and said, "How many years have you been doing this?" What do you call it? ”

"Jiang Li, Henan people."

Jiang Li picked up the teacup and held it in his hand, with a wry smile on his face, "How can there be such a thing, I'm just opportunistic, for two meals and one night." ”

"I don't know much about Qianmen, I only know about bees, sparrows, guns, fires, and so on. You run a single gang like this, but you are all a master. ”

Jiang Li opened his mouth to speak, but Cheng Ming waved his hand and said, "Don't bother making up words, I'm just saying it casually." Actually, I was a little surprised that you could come over today. After all, the proprietress covered it up very well, I was just a little suspicious, and I deceived her, but I didn't expect to really cheat something. ”

Jiang Li was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile.

"You are a Jianghu person, you must be well-informed. I invite you to come over this time, and I have something to ask you about. After all, I'm young, and I don't know what to do on the market. It's up to you to do this, I only have three days, and if it's done, I'm here to thank you! ”

Cheng Ming raised the teacup and signaled, Jiang Li hurriedly raised the teacup, and the two took a sip together.

"You seem to be afraid of me?"

Jiang Li sneered, "Master Cheng's methods, I've heard the proprietress mention it many times in the past two days. To tell the truth, as soon as the sun went down today, I had already arrived at the inn, and I had been hiding in the back mountain to watch those brothers work, and the more I looked, the more frightened I became. How dare you be disrespectful to Master Cheng. ”

"That's good!"

Cheng Ming got up and patted Jiang Li's shoulder, "The same method, you have already drunk it just now." Don't worry, it won't happen anytime soon. The matter is done, you are safe and sound, and I have a heavy thank you here. If I'm not satisfied, and you're wasting my time, I'm sorry, there's still a shortage of people in the woods outside. ”

"Don't dare, don't dare, you must do your best!"

Jiang Li hurriedly stood up, sincerely afraid.

Cheng Ming raised his teacup, with a little smile on his face.
