Chapter 002: The Battle Chicken Among the Birds
In the past, Aoki could pinch them to death with a casual pinch of such a small insect, but now he can't, so he can only sit and wait to die.
Aoki had been watching the two bugs to see what they were going to do.
They're moving! They are constantly wriggling, crawling around, and then finding places where the leaves are more tender.
"......, you dare to be a picky eater?!" Aoki scolded.
Then I saw them open their hateful teeth and gnaw straight down on the leaves.
A slight ache hit me.
Then, as bursts of pain continued to rush towards him like a tidal wave, Aoki watched as his body was eaten away little by little.
"You are so cruel! Ling Chi torture! If you do such a heinous thing, you will surely be punished! "Aoki is a little chilly.
After three days, Aoki felt sick, and it was so sick that even the leaves drooped down, and he was no longer as energetic as before. At this point, the leaves on Aoki's body had been half gnawed by the two damn bugs. I saw that large piece, almost all the leaves had been gnawed off the fat mesophyll, and only the bare petioles and leaf trays remained.
And those two insects are already big and round, full of fat intestines, round and thick, it seems that Aoki provides them with good nutrition.
Looking at their fat appearance, and his own eaten leaves, Aoki's hatred for them soared to a million.
In order to kill them, Aoki tried his best to secrete insecticides and secrete scents that lured other spiders and other natural enemies of insects. But it turned out that the organ that secreted these things was not found, or rather, the sapling did not have this ability at all.
Later, Aoki tried to take advantage of the heavy rain to wash them away, but in the end he failed again, only to see the two damn bugs, alertly hiding under the leaves before the rain.
Aoki was helpless.
"Am I going to die like this at the hands of this damn bug??"
"Ah......h Why do others start with rebirth, but I have to struggle to the death here, and I don't even have a chance to struggle. Don't you have any defense systems for grass and trees? Why didn't I? Clean, yo-yo, why am I so pure? ”
Finally, one day, Aoki finally ushered in a life-saving Bodhisattva, this Bodhisattva is a bird the size of two thumbs, but at this time Aoki's leaves have been gnawed to only one-tenth of them.
It is said that the early bird has worms, and it gets up so early, so God gives it the best gift. I saw it fly to Aoki's side and unceremoniously pick up a worm that was destroying Aoki.
"Ying~Xiong! Bird, you're a hero! Aoki wept bitterly, the scourge of the insect was finally removed.
"Huh? No, what about heroes? Birdie? Where did it go? Aoki suddenly found that the "hero" was gone, and the remaining fat green-skinned worm was still swaggering and roaming at Aoki's body.
"Ying~Xiong!! Don't go!! Help me!! Aoki's whole body trembled, and he realized his turbulent emotions.
After a while, I finally saw the little bird fly back again, grabbed the remaining worm, and flew away.
"Ying~Xiong! Thank you! Aoki finally saw the moon and couldn't help crying a little.
Looking at the leaves that he only had less than a tenth left, although miserable, he was very happy.
My life can finally be decided by me.
Well, I'll have to thank that little bird for a chance in the future.
After the danger of the bugs was gone, Aoki began to pounce on the growth with all his might.
The first is to extract nutrients from the soil from the roots, but fortunately, the roots of the saplings are strangely large and very efficient.
The second is to urge the growth hormone in the body to send to the top of the branches to promote the growth of branches and the budding of leaves;
The third is to photosynthesize at full power, providing organic matter for the body to grow.
The sapling has wisdom, and no one can stop it. I saw that the whole body of the tree is running at high power, constantly absorbing nutrients, producing growth nutrients, and using various resources more efficiently than other trees and flowers.
Most of these nutrients are delivered to the branches of the trees whose leaves have been gnawed off, prompting the growth of new shoots.
In less than a week, dense new shoots and leaves have grown in those areas that have been gnawed off. Feeling his whole body return to its previous state, Aoki finally relaxed.
But Aoki didn't give up his vigilance, if there were more bugs, it was estimated that he would want to die. In order to cope with this situation, Aoki constantly studied himself.
"What kind of tree am I?" I studied and studied, but I still didn't know what I was, and then I simply stopped thinking about it and turned to studying pesticides.
In the plant kingdom, there are two ways to deal with insects, one is to secrete an insecticide (gas or liquid) by itself, and the other is to secrete a smell that can attract odors such as spiders.
The first four days had been fruitless, and on the fifth day, he finally discovered everything.
"What is this?"
Aoki discovered a special organic substance that was synthesized directly from the roots of the tree and transported directly to the leaves. Then it stopped motionless inside the foliage tissue, which was new and not found in any other foliage location.
Aoki swung it around in order to study it, but he didn't find out what it was for. Later, I tried to transport it through the leaf holes to the surface of the leaf, and after a minute, I noticed that it began to gradually become sticky, and finally gradually began to harden again.
"Hahaha!" Aoki's figure is eerily dancing in the absence of wind.
"In the future, I will call you 5.02 all-purpose glue!" Aoki playfully gave the organism a name.
"Bugs, come if you have the ability! Welcome to Uncle Ben! ”
Aoki believes that with it, these damned, hateful, child-giving bugs with no assholes and no jj can be easily trapped, immobilized, and starved to death when the time comes.
"But why is this organism inexplicably there? It turns out that it hasn't been there all along, huh? Aoki couldn't help but be curious.
Aoki carefully senses his roots, where the organic matter is produced. Several nodules grow here, and many chemical elements and substances are constantly transported here from the roots and trunks, and then the "502 all-purpose glue" is constantly synthesized.
Aoki can swear to his "human" personality, there was no such "tumor processing factory" before, why did it appear inexplicably at this time?
"Could it be that I kept thinking about how to deal with the bug, and it just showed up the way I thought?"
Suddenly Aoki thought of one thing, six years ago, a botanist in the United States published an article: there is a kind of grass that has a particularly powerful ability, whenever it encounters a crisis, it will continue to 'research, produce' new substances to deal with this crisis, and the success rate is very high.
The report was published in Nature and attracted worldwide attention. This grass was once known as a sacred grass, and this research ability is known as the light of life by scientists all over the world. As a result, this grass has been cultivated and used in research by scientists from all over the world, hoping to find drugs to treat major diseases such as cancer and AIDS, and some institutions even want to use it to develop drugs against human aging.
However, later humans discovered that this kind of grass has a flaw in this ability, that is, this ability can only be used ten times in a lifetime, and after ten times, this ability will never appear again.
Since human research on plants has not yet developed to a higher level, many things cannot be resolved, so the progress of research is extremely slow. Subsequently, many institutions and individuals withdrew from this kind of research one after another. In the end, only some of the more powerful countries are still working on it.
It wasn't until Aoki was reincarnated as a young sapling, as a graduate student in biology at Tsinghua University, that he vaguely knew that a research team jointly organized by several universities in Beijing had not yet produced useful results. As for the medicine for cancer and AIDS, there is no shadow.
"Could it be that I have this ability too? Wouldn't I be awesome? Hahaha! ”
After Daxi, another question came to mind: "I don't know how many times I can use this ability, as a tree, how can it be a little better than grass." However, even if there is more grass than grass, it cannot be used indiscriminately, and good steel must be used on the blade.
Calm down, Aoki carefully perceives this thing, and the more he looks at it, the more cute he feels.
