Chapter 111: The Bustling Underground City 2
When Xia Ru came looking, he happened to see the two of them talking, so he didn’t go forward, but waited to the side. After Sang Chu saw him, she was about to walk over when Lu Min Feng said softly:
“Just because you are like me, you should be able to understand me. Very few people can enter our hearts, so we will cherish them even more. You don’t want me to be with Mu Xue, don’t you want to be my enemy? But I can guarantee that whether Mu Xue and I can reach the end or not, I will not be your enemy. Being enemies with you would be the beginning of my greatest disaster.”
“Mm, I believe that. Let’s go, Xia Ru is here.”
The two walked towards Xia Ru. Xia Ru said, “Sister Sang, Brother Feng, my brother and the others found some things at the breeding farm, and they don’t know how to deal with them, so they want to ask you to come over.”
“What things? Grandmother doesn’t know either?”
Sang Chu was very confused. The greenhouses in the underground city were all planted with things brought back from the Demon Realm. Hadn’t she already told Grandmother?
Xia Ru said, “I don’t know. They look like fruit trees, but the fruits that grow are very strange in appearance, I’ve never seen them before. And Uncle Gao said they look a bit like poisonous fruit?”
Lu Min Feng glanced at him. “Uncle Gao doesn’t have supernatural abilities, does he? Even a Wood Element Supernatural Ability User couldn’t check it, but Uncle Gao discovered something unusual?”
Xia Ru was also very confused. “Yes, he said it was a very strange feeling. But even Ma Ya Ru didn’t detect that the wood plants were poisonous, so everyone dared not act rashly. Grandmother Lin asked me to come find you to take a look. Si Yu has already gone to find Brother Wen and Brother Yi.”
Sang Chu nodded. It was a good thing that everyone was very vigilant in the apocalypse. “Then let’s go.”
The three walked towards the greenhouse and happened to meet Sang Jing Wen and Xiao Yi Fei on the way.
“Brother, Brother Yi, what are you two doing?”
When Xiao Yi Fei saw Sang Chu, he couldn’t help but run towards her, laughing heartily, “Sang Sang, do you know your brother’s sword…”
Before he could finish speaking, Sang Jing Wen covered his mouth. “Sang Sang, your Brother Yi is acting up, let’s hurry and go see the things Grandmother mentioned.”
Sang Jing Wen, who was a head taller than Xiao Yi Fei, dragged him away with sparkling eyes. Lu Min Feng looked curiously at their retreating backs, always feeling something was strange. “A Chu, Brother Yi and Brother Wen…”
“It should be about my brother learning Sword Control Technique. The process was very cool, but the ending…”
Lu Min Feng asked, “What about the ending?”
Sang Chu smiled mischievously and said, “You’ll know next time you spar with my brother. Let’s go, let’s go see that strange fruit.”
The conversation between the two made Xia Ru ponder. Sword Control Technique was not a supernatural ability, but if Sang Jing Wen could do it, perhaps he could too!
Having made up his mind, he quickly followed. As soon as they entered the greenhouse, a towering tree could be seen growing out of the ground. Around it were some unknown flowers. These seemed to be seeds brought back from Butterfly Valley?
When Grandmother Lin saw Sang Chu and the others arrive, she immediately walked over. “Sang Sang, look at this, why has it suddenly grown so tall?”
Sang Chu took out a booklet from her Bracelet Space. This was the Monster Plant Compendium that Tu You bought in the Demon Realm, just in case she bought too many seeds from the Demon Realm and didn’t recognize them or know what would grow.
“Grandmother, don’t worry, let me take a look.”
She directly sat on a stone stool beside her. Sang Jing Wen and the others also gathered around. Sang Chu observed the tree while reading. At this moment, the sharp-eyed Xiao Yi Fei suddenly pointed at a milky white, coconut-like thing beside them and said, “Look, doesn’t this look like the fruit above?”
Mu Xue squatted beside it and looked for a long time. “It looks a bit like it. Look, there are patterns on it, and the big tree also has them.”
Sang Chu glanced at Gao Qiu and said, “Gao Qiu, go up and pick one down to see.”
“Okay.”
Gao Qiu was agile and climbed the tall tree in an instant. With a swift movement, he picked the fruit.
“Sister Sang.”
He handed the fruit to Sang Chu. She looked at the patterns on it for a long time before picking up a knife and cutting along the crevice. A sweet milky fragrance instantly spread out.
Tu You, who had been sleeping, woke up as soon as he smelled the fragrance. “So fragrant, so fragrant…”
Following the scent, he crawled out. Without using invisibility, he was seen by everyone, but he didn’t notice their gazes, only focusing on the fruit’s aroma, slurping it down greedily.
*Burp~*
“So full, so full~”
“This thing is so delicious to drink~”
Tu You, with his belly full, suddenly lay down. This scared him. He found that not only Sang Chu and the others were staring at him, but even those outsiders were staring at him.
“Why are you looking at me!”
Sang Chu smiled and gently rubbed his belly. “We just picked this thing and wanted to study what it was. You followed the scent and came out to eat it. How are you now?”
What Tu You liked must be good stuff. Sure enough, after a while, he moved his little short hands and was overjoyed. “I’ve recovered?”
His rabbit eyes widened, full of disbelief. “I’ve really recovered! I thought I would sleep for a long time. A Chu, I really love you to death! What is this thing!”
He buried his head in Sang Chu’s arms, too excited to contain himself. When he decided to help Sang Chu, he had already prepared to faint. He didn’t expect that, alas, he was alive again!
Lu Min Feng looked at the introduction above and said, “It says here that this is Milk Fruit, which can instantly restore the energy in the human body. It is generally used for infants when they are just born. Regularly consuming Milk Fruit can achieve the effect of awakening the bloodline in advance.”
He spoke the key points, omitting some details, and his words made everyone present look at the large tree. Ma Ya Ru immediately thought of her younger brother and parents. “Brother Feng, does this mean that as long as one can consume Milk Fruit, ordinary people can also awaken?”
Lu Min Feng shook his head. “It’s unclear at the moment, but there’s a possibility. Everyone should take care of it. I see here that the older the Milk Fruit, the better the effect, but it will grow a companion flower. This companion flower likes to eat people. I presume it’s the circle below. It’s just that you might have used supernatural abilities to accelerate the growth of the Milk Fruit tree just now.
The power of this companion flower hasn’t reached the level of awakening, so we were able to pick it so smoothly just now. Next time, it might not be so lucky. Everyone must be careful in the future. These things were obtained by Sang Chu with great effort. They are very good, but also very dangerous. Don’t act rashly on anything you’re not sure about!”
Ma Ya Ru said, “Brother Feng, Sister Sang, don’t worry. We won’t touch what we shouldn’t. Can we pick some now while the companion flower hasn’t bloomed?”
Seeing that they didn’t speak, Ma Ya Ru immediately added, “Sister Sang, I’ll go pick it. I know this might make you think I’m greedy, but I want my brother and parents to try it. What if they can awaken? In the future, if you have any orders, I, Ma Ya Ru, will do my utmost, and will not betray the Base until my death!”
