Star Planter

When Su He was a child, his master often said to him that people should come and go in getting along with each other.People who only go in but can't go in look smart, but they are actually making the road narrower and narrower. As for those who just go out but can't go in, they are fools.Su He felt that the words he and Lu Li used were quite appropriate.

Not counting the inexplicable relationship between the two, Lu Li had already helped him several times, and Lu Li had saved him from the beast tide before.Including him now on the Iris, whose life is different from that of the refugees in the lower cabin, it was actually because of Lu Li.Su He accepted Lu Li's love, and felt that Lu Li and the others were different from the sentinels that Po Xing met, and wanted to repay Lu Li after he lifted his guard.He doesn't know much about other things, farming is the only thing he is good at.

Su He thought so, turned over the seeds and planted radishes all over the ground.There is no way, at first he brought the most radish seeds for convenience.After the seeds are planted, tender green seedlings will soon emerge.In a good mood, Su He reached out his tentacles, found Lu Li and poked him lightly.

Outside the Iris, Lu Li, Shen Shen, and Liao Kai, a part-time maintenance worker on the Iris, were talking about the progress of the repair of the starship's anti-gravity system.Liao Kai was a little embarrassed, "Several key parts of the anti-gravity system are damaged, and the Iris lacks the necessary maintenance tools. It will take about 2-3 months to completely repair it."

"2-3 months?" Lu Li was helpless. It would take 2-3 months to repair the starship, survey and map the nearby star maps, determine their location, and try to contact the Federation. It may take more time.He smiled wryly: "According to the general's temper, there has been no news of the Iris for so long, and the Fourth Army can probably be dismantled."

Shen Shen snorted, spread his hands and said: "No way, who made the Fourth Legion reluctant to part with energy stones. If they are willing to jump directly to our coordinates, maybe we have already returned to Planet Karn by now." Although it is a bit angry to say so , but if Raynor hadn't stretched out the energy shield, the Iris would have been torn apart by the warp space storm long ago.

Lu Li's attitude was fair, "The Fourth Legion has a mediocre relationship with us, and we followed the procedures. We were lucky. We had Renault first, and then met the Habitat Planet. Thinking about it from another angle, this planet can also be regarded as an energy star. , we can say it was a blessing in disguise.”

Shen Shen emphasized: "It is not only an energy star, but an energy star that can be recycled."

His views represent the mainstream views of the Iris, and everyone feels that the Iris is going to get rich.It would be best if they could keep these weird-looking plants in captivity, so that they could continuously produce energy stones in the future.

Lu Li smiled, not as optimistic as Shen Shen.He has always been very concerned about the malice that Su He perceives from the depths of the desert.The sentinel has keen five senses, and occasionally the sixth sense will burst out. He always feels that this planet is not as simple as he sees.He asked Shen Shen: "Assuming Wei Na's judgment is correct, have you ever thought about how those plants condensed energy stones in their bodies last night?"

Regarding this point, last night Shen Shen and the others who couldn't sleep happened to discuss it.Everyone agreed that the key lies in the green tentacles on the top of the plant, similar to the photosynthesis of ordinary plants, absorbing light energy or other free energy in the universe, and then condensing into energy stones in the body.

"That's right, that's it." Liao Kai added.

Lu Li was noncommittal, and continued to ask: "Then what does the mouth at the base do? What about the feeding and digestive organs in the body?" He didn't need Shen Shen and Liao Kai to answer, and he almost said to himself: "The birth of life in the universe Evolution cannot be separated from its living environment, and the mouth at the root of the plant is definitely not a decoration."

Shen Shen was about to speak, when Lu Li suddenly changed his expression slightly, and looked up at Su He's cabin.Liao Kai winked at Shen Shen, and mouthed: "Little guide?"

Shen Shen nodded cooperatively.The eyes of the two were flying wildly, Lu Li looked away, Shen Shen and Liao Kai turned their expressions straight at the same time, and they couldn't find the look of gossiping just now.Lu Li glanced at the two of them with a half-smile, and said, "Okay, let everyone be vigilant, don't be fooled by the energy stone."

It's still too early to draw conclusions, Wei Na has already set off with the third team to find live plants.The specific situation will have to wait until they catch the sample.After Lu Li gave his orders, he went to look for Su He. Thinking of the surprise that Su He said he would give him, Lu Li's brows and eyes softened.He had already heard about Su He's making a pile of sand in the morning, so he probably guessed what Su He was going to do.He thinks this is a good start, which means that Su He is less and less guarded against him, and it is also Su He's recognition of Iris.

Lu Li made up his mind to pretend to be surprised no matter what he saw when he knocked on the door.But in fact, he didn't need to pretend to cooperate with Su He at all, everything in front of him was enough to exceed his expectations.In the cabin where Su He lived, a piece of black land one meter square appeared out of thin air, and tender green seedlings were neatly scattered on it.Su He's mental body was actively burrowing around in the soil, and when he saw him coming in, he immediately buried two small leaves in the soil shyly.

Su He poked the exposed "butt" of the young seedling, and looked at Lu Li with a smile.He didn't even notice it himself, he was completely looking for praise at this time.

Lu Li smiled and said sincerely, "It's amazing."

The smile on Su He's face widened, and the pride in his expression couldn't be hidden.With gentle eyes, Lu Li smiled and sat beside Su He.Both of them sat directly on the floor, Lu Li rubbed some soil, and his senses came out.The black soil in his hands is fertile and full of vitality, full of energy flows in it, and there is no barrenness of yellow sand at all.

He knowingly asked: "Is this the sand you made this morning?"

Su He nodded.Lu Li was thoughtful, "Is this ability the ability of a plant's spiritual body?"

Su He hesitated: "Not all."

Lu Li was not the first person to ask him this question. Like Lu Li, Han Rui also regarded the formation as the ability of the spirit body of plants.Su He once explained to Han Rui the principle of arranging formations, but Han Rui couldn't understand them at all.Su He simply admitted that this is the ability of the plant spirit body, but the formation is an auxiliary, and the two complement each other.He brushed away the soil at hand to reveal the energy stone underneath, looked at Lu Li and said, "The ability of the plant spirit body is only part of it, and we need to arrange a formation to assist it."

"Array?" Lu Li pointed a finger into the soil and felt the simple and perfect energy circulation inside. He was surprised, "Energy field?"

Su He: "...you can also say that."

Lu Li thought for a while and said, "If you want to deploy this formation outside the Iris, how many energy stones do you need?"

"That depends on how big the arrangement is. But..." Su He said honestly, "I'm... I don't have enough mental strength, so I can only arrange small and medium-sized formations. If it's too big, I can't do it." He guessed Lu Li's intention , "Do you want to open up farming in the desert?"

Lu Li nodded. "The Iris is seriously damaged, and it will take three months to fully repair and leave. We stay on this planet, and the people in the bottom cabin can't stay on the Iris and do nothing all the time. We need to find something for them to do."

Strictly speaking, Lu Li saved these people from Poxing only out of human morality, there is no reason for Iris to keep them all the time, and Lu Li does not intend to do so.Besides, I don't know how many exiles from the Federation have been mixed among these people, and it is impossible for the Iris to treat them as ordinary civilians.Lu Li needed them to support himself and relieve the pressure on the Iris.At the same time, when people have something to do, they won't think wildly, lest these people cause any trouble.

Su He did the math, with a little more work, the formation for more than 300 people to farm could still be arranged.It's just...he looked at Lu Li hesitantly, and Lu Li understood what he meant, and assured him, "I will strictly limit the range of activities of those people in the bottom deck, and they won't know who arranged the formation."

Su He laughed and said, "Old man, oh, it's my master. He often says that he doesn't show his wealth, and that he is different from others." He trusted Han Rui, Lu Li and the Yuanwei, who were friendly sentries to him. , but don't trust those people in the bilge.It's not that he doubts what other people will do if they find out, it's just an instinct to avoid trouble.

Lu Li nodded in agreement, "The old man is right. Just like the plant that can produce energy stones discovered by the Iris, everyone didn't think about handing it over to the Federation for research. Provide energy stones."

Su He blinked, with a cunning expression, imitating Lu Li's tone and said solemnly: "Masters have precious morals, even if you are far away from the Federation, you will never forget to defend the Federation's honor..."

Lu Li laughed and praised, "You're very similar."

Su He smiled and couldn't continue.Lu Li was very calm, "Slogans are for others to hear. No matter what you do, it will always be easier to use the banner of righteousness."

Su He nodded vigorously, "Understood."

Seeing his appearance, Lu Li couldn't help but reached out and rubbed his head.Su He turned his face slightly, the tips of his ears turned red.

The atmosphere in the cabin began to be a little strange, several screams came from outside the Iris, and the noise interrupted the seemingly invisible pink link between the two.Su He looked outside in surprise, Lu Li quickly got up, "You stay here, don't run around." He expanded his perception as he walked, and the scenes of the sea emerged one by one.

It was the activity time for the residents in the bottom cabin, and these people didn't know about the skirmish between the Iris and the plants last night.Shen Shen requested that their range of activities should not be too far away from the Iris, and most of them obeyed this order.But the few surviving girls wanted to take a shower and were reluctant to be in crowded places.They walked farther and farther along the seashore, discussing how to get out of the sensing range of the sentry.When Jiang Bo realized that he was going to call them back, green tentacles suddenly emerged from the sandy bottom, and the gray rock opened its ferocious mouth, biting off the girl in front with one bite.

Red blood splattered, and green tentacles quickly penetrated into the girl's body.Her body wasted away at a speed visible to the naked eye, and one of her legs had been chewed clean by the gray rock.The few surviving girls backed away in horror, and Jiang Bo arrived almost immediately.The eating plants were quickly killed, but the girl who was killed could not be rescued.

Jiang Bo picked up the green tentacles, and countless tiny flagella protruded from the respiratory organs all over them. These flagella were not dead yet, wriggling and trying to wrap around Jiang Bo's hand.Even though Jiang Bo had seen all kinds of dark beasts, he couldn't help but shudder.
