Ji Xiao and Lu Zhi'an chatted for a long time, as the old man himself said, although he did not have the power of the origin, he had not lived in vain for so many years, and his knowledge was far from being comparable to Ji Xiao, and there were many things that Ji Xiao did not understand.

Ji Xiao's experience comes from his grandfather and the flowers and plants planted at home, but it is only a drop in the ocean compared to the plants in this world, and there are many plants in this world that Ji Xiao has never even heard of, let alone understand their habits.

And Lu Zhian was a scholar at the Institute of Botany in his early years, but at that time they were not studying mutant plants, but even so, what he knew was far from being comparable to Ji Xiao.

During this period, Ji Xiao also asked about the technology of ripening plants, and she remembered that Zhou Ying said that many scholars were studying this problem.

The old man also gave her the answer, just two days ago, the old man found a kind of soil called "black gold soil" with several chemical drugs can quickly ripen plants, unfortunately, those chemical drugs are harmful to the body, he is now experimenting, hoping to reduce the chemical composition to the level that the human body can bear, but will not affect the effect of ripening.

Of course, there is no urgency in this matter, after all, it is already very good to be able to successfully grow crops, and the technology of ripening is just take-out.

It wasn't until evening that Ji Xiao came out of the old man's laboratory with a bunch of bottles and cans, which were all kinds of crop seeds.

Put these seeds into his laboratory, Ji Xiao only picked a bottle of rice seeds and put it in his backpack, and then left work.

Speaking of which, this laboratory has no other effect on Ji Xiao except for placing items, maybe he won't use it in the laboratory in the future, and he can work from home.

When I returned home, the old man had not come back, and there was a note on the table, saying that he was going to send flowers, and several old customers had ordered a lot of potted plants with him, and he could only come back after sending them.

Ji Xiao smiled helplessly, grandpa is in good health now, but he can't be idle.

Throwing down her backpack and coming to the balcony, Ji Xiao took out the rice seeds, and took out another pot filled with soil and water, and after everything was ready, she began to input the power of the source to ripen it. Crops are indeed fragile, especially when they are still seeds, and they cannot be careless.

After ripening two seeds one after another, Ji Xiao was already sweating profusely, and the source power in his body was also exhausted.

Looking at the golden rice, Ji Xiao showed a satisfied smile, yes, if you ripen a little more, you will harvest the mutated rice seeds, and it will be easy in the future. And it won't be long before she can eat the white rice that her grandfather used to hang on her lips.

After half a night's horse walk, Ji Xiao still woke up from the floor for the second time, today is Wednesday, the ancient martial arts class is still in the morning, Ji Xiao went to finish the ancient martial arts class before returning home, and went to the research institute with only two lonely rice pots.

Of course, today's ancient martial arts class Ji Xiao was abused even worse, obviously it was still yesterday's training content, but Mu Chiyi was like he had just crawled out of the ice, and the whole process exuded a cold air that no one could approach, and Ji Xiao even felt a faint resentment on him, which made her very inexplicable.

After coming to the research institute, Ji Xiao did not alarm anyone, and plunged directly into his laboratory, and did not stop until the evening, when there were already nearly twenty rice trees in the pot.

Because it had been ripened, Ji Xiao fell down in a hurry and fell into the muddy water at the bottom of the basin.

When I went out with a basin, it was already dark, and only the warm street lamps were shining. Ji Xiao sprinkled all the soil mixed with rice into Lu Zhi'an's paddy field, and then washed his hands and went out.

At this time, the highway is exceptionally quiet, because it is close to the wild area, no one dares to come here at night, and no one in the wild area will come back at this time, so there is not even a pedestrian on the road.

On both sides of the road, except for some sparse old buildings, there are bare mountain bags, and occasionally the howl of monsters can be heard from the direction of the wild area. Ji Xiao was stunned in his heart, and couldn't help but speed up his pace.

For a while, there was only the sound of Ji Xiao running and wheezing on the road.

The bloody pictures of the wild area channel suddenly flashed in her mind, and Ji Xiao only felt that her whole body was hairy, as if a monster would pounce on her from behind or from the side in the next moment.

Damn, I'll never get off work so late in the future.

Ji Xiao hated in her heart, her steps were a little faster, and suddenly, a shadow appeared on the ground around the corner in front of her, and I don't know if God deliberately tricked her, just when this shadow appeared, a deafening monster roar sounded, which frightened Ji Xiao and turned around and ran.

How can "pop pop ......" be two footsteps? In addition to their own, there are ......

It's not going to catch up, is it?

Ji Xiao didn't even dare to turn his head back, and sped up the speed on his feet, and at this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him, "Ji Xiao, it's me." ”

Ji Xiao was stunned for a moment, hurriedly turned his head, and after seeing the person who came, he breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time his anger rose slowly, "You have a problem, the scary in the middle of the night will scare people to death, okay?" ”

This person turned out to be Mu Chiyi.

Mu Chi spread his hands, looking quite innocent, "I heard your scream, and I thought something happened to you, who knew that you just ran away." ”

Ji Xiao thought about it, she was frightened by this guy's shadow, and she was completely dominated by fear at that time, coupled with the cry of that monster, she didn't even see what the shadow looked like before she ran away.

Ji Xiao patted his frightened chest and gasped for a while before saying, "Why are you here?" ”

Mu Chi stiffened, a suspicious flush flashed on his face, and he pretended to be calm: "I live here, it's not normal to appear here." It's you, why are you here in the middle of the night? ”

The street lights were dim, where could Ji Xiao see his face clearly, and Mu Chiyi was reasonable, she didn't doubt it.

She replied, "Just got off work." Speaking of this, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said with a smile on her face: "Teacher Mu, are you free now?" ”

Her flattering smile made a fool tell she had a purpose.

Mu Chi was amused, but his face was full of arrogance, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Ji Xiao condescendingly, "Something?" ”

"Uh-huh." Ji Xiao nodded repeatedly, "If you're okay, send me back, right?" "It scared her to death just now.

She really doesn't understand those rich people now, why did they build the manor in such a remote place, did she enjoy listening to the screams of monsters every day?

But it's okay that although the manor area is close to the wild area, there is still some distance from the wild area, but it is the research institute, which is only separated from the wild area by a wall, and when she was in the research institute just now, maybe there was a monster outside the city wall, and it was terrible to think about.
