Chapter 217 216. Kuang Biao's True Heart
It rained heavily for a whole day and night, and Kataro and Dapang were both very unhappy.
The former is because the rain and mud hindered its work progress. As a chosen worker, every minute of rest seems like a crime.
Moreover, after this rain, the flowers and plants that Kataro had originally liked could no longer be used, or became even more difficult to use, which made it difficult for him not to be depressed.
At this moment, I had no choice but to dig out the big box in the nest, pick out a favorite ball from it and hold it in my arms, as a little comfort.
As for Big Fatty, the rain soaked the soil, and the environment that he could adapt to became more and more disgusting and uncomfortable. There was a strange energy in the soil that wanted to get into his flawless body. How could Big Fatty, who was so white and so good, be willing to absorb all of this and make himself manic and ugly!
So for the whole day and night, it could only be stuck in the hole of the square brick that was originally used as a flowerpot, with its roots lightly touching the soil in the pot, which was better than nothing.
Only Kuang Biao was happy and unrestrained. At this moment, the branches and leaves rustled in the rain, and he shouted, "Sooner or later, I will become stronger!"
But this domineering attitude only lasted for less than 3 seconds, and soon it hurriedly bent down the front of its body, trying to shield the sunflowers in front from the heavy rain:
"Xiao Kui! I am willing to give everything for you!"
The bamboos piled up one after another, struggling to create a space for the tall sunflowers to absorb less rain. However, the rain was still absorbed by the ground.
Kuang Biao felt heartbroken instantly: "Xiao Kui, wuwuwu... It's all my fault that I'm not strong enough to protect you from the wind and rain..."
To be honest, if he wasn't only 6 years old, this performance would be able to offset the greasiness during the day.
Zhou Qian saw Huaiyu leaning over the window and watching with great interest, so he couldn't help but move closer. After a while, he looked away with a complicated expression:
"Is this character of his really unrelated to your ability?"
Huaiyu's eyes widened: "I didn't touch him at all!"
“It’s born that way!”
"Are the other mutant plants on Mount Sanqing like this too?"
Huaiyu: “…”
She recalled the other trees' silence during the fight that day, and replied with difficulty: "Maybe... the others are more low-key."
Zhou Qian stared at her, his eyes full of suspicion: "So tell me the truth, do you have another ability that can naturally attract these strange things..."
He sums it up: "Biological."
Huaiyu wanted to explain, but she didn't know where to start. Then she looked Zhou Qian up and down, and suddenly she was curious: "You said so much, do you want to go to Sanqing Mountain with me?"
Zhou Qian's face was serious: "It's not bad."
What kind of answer is "It's not bad"?
Huaiyu glanced at him and thought, if you want to go, just go. Why are you being so tactful? The reason she hasn't been going recently is because she hasn't finished the housework yet!
But after this rain, the vegetables in the fields need to be purified for a long time before they can be eaten. Since I have nothing to do, it’s not a bad idea to take him to the mountains.
It's hot now, maybe it's cooler in the mountains.
"There's just one thing—"
Huai Yu hesitated: "Last time I wanted to go deeper, but I ran into Kuang Biao as soon as I went deeper. If I run into mutant plants again this time, can you defeat them?"
Zhou Qian touched his nose and said, "If I had a weapon, I should be able to fight some."
Coincidentally, he retired and all his weapons were taken back, leaving him with only a long sword, which he could not use for digging or chopping wood, so he had to keep it at home.
After being equipped with biological prosthetics, his abilities were somewhat stronger, but they were limited. He might be very experienced in close combat, but he could not deal with mutant plants from a distance as conveniently and efficiently as a psychic.
Huaiyu was a little conflicted.
"I heard there is a Taoist temple on Mount Sanqing, and I want to go there to take a look. But the road up the mountain is all occupied by mutant plants, and it's hard to find it once you go deep into the mountains." "If we can't win, let's just wander around the periphery. There is a big pine tree there, which is good for me."
This text sounds very niche.
But Zhou Qian still nodded to show his satisfaction:
"That'll be fine."
He really wanted to see how much affinity Huaiyu had for mutant plants, especially after the polluted rain, when plants generally became more aggressive.
This kind of irritability is just like the normal state of those plants in the wilderness that have seen blood.
And if she can enter and exit Sanqing Mountain freely, then Zhou Qian will have more confidence to go to the wilderness.
But now——
The two looked at the continuous rain and sighed again.
Just as he was listening in silence, he suddenly heard Kuang Biao yelling again, as if he had been beaten.
The two men did not dare to get wet by the rain, so they had to lie down in front of the window and look out. They saw that the rose branches that had jumped over from the edge had grabbed the bamboo tips and wrapped them tightly again.
Zhou Qian became curious: "Does the Rose Corridor also need it to protect it from wind and rain?"
But on second thought, it's not impossible.
Many mutants with low desires would hate this kind of high pollution rain. They even took the last rain seriously and only dared to shout loudly from a distance to notify Huaiyu, because they were afraid that the Rose Corridor would riot and lose its temper in the rain.
But now, maybe because he really likes Huaiyu, he just makes a fuss in the Rose Corridor when he gets angry.
That didn't seem so scary anymore.
Zhou Qian thought silently.
However, the next moment, Kuang Biao cried out again:
"I just crossed the line a little bit!!! You hit me in the rain and took advantage of the bamboo's danger like this, isn't that too much!?"
He defended himself, "I was trying to protect Xiaokui from the rain. It's too far away. Even if the bamboo bends over, it's not high enough to block the rain. What's the point?"
It screamed at the top of its lungs, like a pig being carried to the chopping board, and now it shouted loudly:
"Xiao Yu, help! Xiao Yu! Help—"
"Tell Rose Corridor that I didn't mean to take advantage of the opportunity to dig next to your foundation. I just wanted to give Xiaokui a home to shelter from the wind and rain!"
What do you mean?
Huai Yu was also angry: Bamboo roots have such destructive power!
Just look at the fat bamboo shoot with a hole drilled in it and you will know that until now, due to lack of materials, the hole has not been completely filled.
Kuang Biao said that he was protecting Xiao Kui from wind and rain, but once he got into the bamboo roots under the wall, would it be able to retract?
If I want to get close to Xiaokui at that time, and a few more bamboos pop out -
Well, her newly built house is about to crack at the foundation.
How can I bear this?
"I won't allow it!" She also shouted through the window: "No! No way! Kuang Biao, don't steal our territory!"
"If you keep doing this, I'll transplant your little sunflowers when the rain stops!"
Update 1 is here! Oh my god, it's so laggy lately!!! The plot of the wasteland is all set up but I just can't make the transition! Damn it!
Wait for me to absorb the essence of the sun and the moon!
