Plant elves, popular on the Internet by planting

"It will hurt the bamboo too!" Zhu Xiao puffed her lips and snorted coldly, then turned her head away.

Si Yao paused.

The elves before never had much desire to control the plants they cultivated. Instead, they were very enthusiastic about letting others eat the plants they grew.

Only little Bamboo is stubborn. If he says something is inedible, then it really is inedible.

but……

Si Yao looked at the ears on his brother's head and was silent for a moment. Well, showing the ears is a bit against the rules...

Who can resist a panda that looks pitifully at you wanting to eat bamboo?

Si Yao knew not to mess up Xiao Zhuzi's hair, so he just gently stroked his cheek and looked at him with a chuckle, "Is it because these bamboos are your little friends?"

Zhu Xiao nodded, then shook her head violently, lowered her head in frustration, "I know they don't have spiritual consciousness and are not elves, so they should indeed be used as food, but I don't want others to eat them..."

Zhu Xiao was a little conflicted. He was actually a little envious when he saw that the plants grown by Pingping and Xianxian were so popular, but he was also a little reluctant.

"I want them all to stay with me all the time." Zhu Xiao's face looked a little depressed. If she had ears, they would have drooped down by now.

Si Yao gently smoothed his brows, "Then let them stay with you forever, don't be sad, it's okay. But can I plant some other bamboos somewhere else?"

Si Yao lowered his voice and pointed in the direction of Lan Zhuochi, speaking in a low voice that only the two of them could hear, "His animal form is a panda, and his food is bamboo. You can't completely stop him from eating bamboo, right?"

Zhu Xiao looked at Si Yao and nodded slowly. What he said made sense.

“Can I grow other bamboos then?”

Zhu Xiao hugged Si Yao's fingers tightly and shook her head, "You can...eat mine, but not too much. Just...just the ones over there."

Zhu Xiao pointed to the bamboo that he had deliberately moved to another place, with a generous attitude.

Si Yao took a closer look and was silent for a moment.

The bamboos in that patch all looked a little crooked, either not that long or not that straight. They were the ones that Zhu Xiao had deliberately put aside, or perhaps she had seen Xiao Zhuzi throwing the crooked bamboos over there with disgust when she was on the second floor.

It’s okay, as long as it’s edible.

"Thank you, Zhu Xiao, that's great. From now on, can I take any piece of bamboo I want?"

Zhu Xiao glanced over there, then quickly retracted her gaze and nodded vigorously, "Okay."

Those bamboos are too ugly to be called bamboos! Only bamboos as beautiful as him are worthy of being called his kind (°ー°〃)!

Si Yao stood aside and watched Lan Zhuochi cut down the bamboo, properly stored it and put it in a box, with a puzzled look on his face.

Is this him?

Planning to set up an exhibition hall?

Why put it in the box if you have nothing to do?

Si Yao didn't want to go into the house to meet someone he didn't want to see for the time being, so he simply sat in the backyard and watched the video tutorial on how to live broadcast.

Until darkness fell, Si Yao did not move at all, sitting quietly on the bench in the backyard looking at the night sky.

The night sky viewed by such a person is actually all in his memory, the memory that runs through the entire sanatorium.

Si Yao's eyes swept across the open space in the backyard. In fact, he could build another swing in the yard that was exactly the same as the one in the sanatorium, right next to Zhizhi's flower bed.

Si Yao stretched out his hand and gestured, suggesting that it would be convenient to make a bigger swing, and then make a few small swings for the elves.

Suddenly, the soil in Zhizhi's flower bed was turned over.

Si Yao looked at the flower bed in a daze. She could feel that Zhizhi should be asleep.

Zhizhi is an alienated plant spirit, or it can be said that he is not an elf, but an alienated plant with his own consciousness. He spends most of his time in a coma, and when he is awake, he is in a daze, or helps his brothers to make some soil and change the direction to get a better sun exposure.

Although his brother showed no signs of recovery, he had been persisting and would not let anyone take his brother away. He would even transfer most of the energy he absorbed to his brother.

But when Zhizhi is asleep, she normally doesn't move at all and won't sleepwalk or turn over in the dirt.

Si Yao completely blocked his breathing and quietly looked at the flower bed that suddenly made some noise.

The piece of dead wood, which had always looked like a dead object, suddenly turned over, changed direction, rolled up an energy stone from the ground, and then buried it in another direction, and became completely quiet.

Si Yao looked at the scene in front of him with some surprise and rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

If she remembered correctly, she had just confirmed last time that this dead tree did not have the slightest breath, but how could he move?

In other words, Zhizhi kept talking about her brother not because she felt she couldn't let go of her brother because he was dead, but because he was indeed not dead?

Si Yao held his breath in confusion as he approached the flower bed, staring straight at the dead tree in front of him.

Instantly the dead tree became quiet and motionless. If it weren't for the signs that the soil had just been turned over, she would have thought she was seeing things.

Si Yao tried to transfer some energy into the dead tree, but it completely dissipated in the air and he could not feel any breath or feedback from the dead tree.

Si Yao was silent for a moment, then poked him with his finger, "Are you alive?"

The dead tree lay quietly in the ground without saying a word, just like a dead tree.

Zhizhi noticed Si Yao's breathing and stretched lazily. The branches and leaves leaned back and shook them at the same time. The fragrance of the gardenia on the branch became stronger.

Zhizhi reacted and quickly put away the fragrance of the flower. She shook the flower bud and was a little confused as to why Si Yao was not sleeping in the middle of the night and was standing here looking at him.

I haven't seen her come to see him usually?

"Is your companion alive or dead?" Si Yao always spoke directly to Zhizhi. Zhizhi was different from other elves and could hardly understand those roundabout words.

Zhizhi patted his brother beside him in confusion and said seriously, "It's dead."

Si Yao stroked the marks on the dead tree. Does that mean Zhi Zhi also doesn’t know about his brother’s situation?

“But I saw him flip over today.”

Zhizhi:!!!

Zhizhi turned around and patted him with her branches and leaves, then touched him again, tilting the flower bud in confusion, "No?"

Si Yao rubbed the leaves of Zhizhi and said, "Okay, then you should go to bed early."

After coaxing Zhizhi, his eyes involuntarily fell on the dead tree. This kind of tree trunk should have been recorded in some books, so he could check its species first.
