Chapter 169: Mutation - Granary 14
Upon hearing this, Gao San's heart instantly sank.
Are they being treated as guinea pigs?
There's no way I'd find a chance to escape!
Gao San squinted his swollen eyes and glanced at Pu Huai in front of him.
Captain Pu, brothers! Hurry up and wake up! We are being used as experimental subjects!
Whether you can escape alive depends on you!
The man on the right pulled his hair again and squinted at him.
The senior high school student looked horrified.
I don't know what he wants to do.
The man frowned, and after a while he managed to say, "Why does it look so crooked?"
After saying that, he raised his hand and punched Gao San in the left cheek again.
Only then was he satisfied: "Finally it's symmetrical."
……
Xianggu and Anjiu traveled all the way.
It calls this vegetation 'Night Buffet'.
No matter where they hang out during the day, all the mutants will come back at night.
"And then leave early in the morning." Anjiu finished the rest of the sentence for it.
"That's right."
There is always an area that you can’t explain what’s so good about it, but you just can’t forget it.
"It may be thin-skinned, juicy, and sweet."
After nightfall, the mushroom lies at the bottom of the leaves, casually inserts its mouthparts into the leaves, and sucks them whenever it is hungry.
No need to work, food is available everywhere, and there are no natural enemies.
Isn't this the retirement life it has always dreamed of?
"By the way," Shiitake suddenly remembered something, "where are the flower buds I brought back for you?"
An Jiu remained calm and said, "I was in a hurry to escape and didn't have time to take it."
"Oh~" Xianggu had no doubt, his mind and body were filled with the scene of himself fainting.
——How embarrassing!
The mushrooms were a little grateful for the steps brought by the thoughtful little brother.
"It's okay, I'll take you to eat nectar, there are more suitable buds over there!"
And you don't need it to bite the bottom~
Anjiu nodded.
The area mentioned by Shiitake is next to the 'night buffet area'.
Before I even got close to the edge, an extremely strong floral scent spread before my eyes.
Anjiu felt an itch on the tip of his nose and sneezed violently.
She looked at the pink air ahead.
Under the light, pollen grains fly densely.
——Anjiu had never seen pollen being captured by the naked eye.
She lifted her collar to cover her mouth and nose and slowed down her breathing.
The shiitake mushrooms had long since hidden their mouthparts back in their stomachs.
But the dense pollen also makes it feel uncomfortable.
He muttered, "Oh no, I'm too late. The flowers have already bloomed. What should I do now..."
Anjiu didn't hear it carefully, so he leaned closer to ask what it said.
Shiitake raised his chin, and his voice came out from his neck, sounding a little muffled, but his tone was cheerful.
"I say, can you bear it? If not, let's come tomorrow."
Anjiu: “No problem.”
Shiitake: “…really?”
Anjiu proved it directly with actions.
Gorgeous yellow double-petaled large flowers slowly bloom on the tall branches.
A breeze blew.
Roll out the pollen inside and spread it forward like a ribbon.
As soon as Anjiu and Xianggu stepped into this area, they were hit hard in the face.
I looked down at the pollen particles on my body, each one looked like a landmine.
Anjiu grabbed a corner of his clothes and fanned it, trying to brush it off.
But this pollen is very sticky and it still sticks firmly after being shaken several times.
She stretched out her finger and flicked it, and the "mine" exploded immediately, leaving a fingernail full of yellow.
I can't even rub it.
I have no choice but to do this for now.
Deal with it later.
The mushroom did not stop for a moment, and from time to time it swung its proboscis into the air to sniff. After determining the direction, it walked towards the right path.
Anjiu discovered that it was avoiding the newly opened flower buds.
This area not only has large yellow flowers, but also super-giant flowers that are as gorgeous as falling fireworks, flowers with petals curled like pipes and arranged repeatedly, and flowers with stamens hanging upside down and the pistils almost touching the ground...
Each contains a large amount of nectar, but is also very difficult to pick.
For example, the first type is too tall, and the branches grow too long and are bent by the flowers.
The second type has many thick petal tubes, and you will easily slip in if you are not careful.
The simplest one is the last one - the nectar seeps directly from the top of the pistil and hangs heavily towards the lower half.
The whole body is crystal clear and exudes an attractive fragrance.
But the mushrooms didn't dare to get close at all, and even started to take a detour when they saw them from a distance.
He did not forget to impart his experience to his younger brother: "Next time you see it, don't get close to it. You can't touch the nectar. It's like glue. If you get a little bit of it, it will slowly eat you up!
"I witnessed several stubborn people die tragically in there, and I came to this conclusion bit by bit!"
Anjiu never goes against the other party on such matters.
After making a mental note of this information, I looked around, silently recording every bit of vegetation that the mushrooms had ignored.
Finally, the mushroom stopped in front of a clump of extremely strange-looking vegetation.
Anjiu jumped off it.
Looking at the white and sturdy flower plant in front of me, it looks like a chicken leg mushroom.
——Just as she described, the branches of this plant are milky white, smooth and fleshy.
The height is about 7 stories high, not straight, some grow diagonally.
What they have in common is that they all have a large pink, hot air balloon-like bud.
Looking from below, you can only vaguely see four dark pink pointed corners on the top.
It is impossible to see how the buds bloom.
But the fact that the mushrooms can stop means that it is safe to collect nectar from this plant.
While Anjiu was looking at her carefully, Xianggu was one step ahead of her.
It ran up to it and poked the smooth surface with its mouthparts, making a sizzling sound.
It's just like the sound of cleaning glass.
Anjiu: “…”
Don't know what it's doing.
This plant grows in a clumping pattern, with two short but thick plants just emerging in the middle.
The flower bud on the top has not yet formed and is flat, but has already turned a dark pink color.
Anjiu walked over, pushed himself up with both hands, and jumped up to take a look.
Even though she was wearing shoes, she could still feel the sizzling sensation of flesh.
——The underdeveloped flower buds look completely different from the others.
Anjiu planned to use a fruit knife to cut off a piece and take a look.
Just as she was about to take action, her feet suddenly trembled.
Looking closely, I found that I was actually rising slowly.
At this moment, a pair of slender hands rested on the edge, yelling at Anjiu to pull it.
The moment Anjiu held its hand, it felt like he was pulling a jack.
It was so serious that I almost got dragged down.
She gritted her teeth and fell backwards, her heels pressing against her flower bud, slipping slightly with each step.
Shiitake Mushroom's other hand was also probing the flower bud, but somehow it kept slipping and he couldn't hold on.
Anjiu took great effort to finally pull it up.
The mushroom lay on the flower bud with a snap, and its two long legs and two arms slid happily on the flower bud flesh, as if lubricated, without any feeling of sluggishness.
It looked at Anjiu with a smile and asked her, "Do you know what this plant is called?"
Of course Anjiu didn't know.
Shiitake pointed his index finger to the sky, full of pride: "We all call it the slippery helicopter elevator~"
