Chapter 139 Bamboo

Bamboo, which is a classification of Qiao Ke, also known as bamboo, not only has a wide variety but also grows rapidly.Some are as low as grass, and some are as tall as trees. Most of them are distributed in tropical and subtropical regions.

This is the introduction about bamboo in the "Plant Illustrated Book", which is what Lu Lingxi read all night.During the meal, Yan Yue accidentally mentioned the characteristics of bamboo, such as good toughness, good elasticity, and low density, and the three chatted accordingly.It was just a chat, but Lu Lingxi had something in his mind, and started looking for information on bamboo when he came back.

In fact, there are many records about bamboo in Huaguo.The earliest bamboo was associated with the characters of Huaguo, and then it was used in science and technology, architecture, tools, musical instruments and other aspects.Lu Lingxi found a lot of information, but he only glanced at the irrelevant information, focusing on the development history of bamboo in construction and tools.According to records, bamboo has a long history of being used in construction. As early as more than 2000 years ago, skilled craftsmen used bamboo to build a palace.In the south where bamboo is abundant, bamboo houses are the most common houses for ordinary people, and there are still people living in bamboo houses until now.

Lu Lingxi found these records interesting, and found out that around the 50s, some buildings in Huaguo actually used bamboo instead of steel bars. However, due to the special circumstances at that time, it was necessary because of the lack of steel materials, and this method was not widely promoted.But this also shows from the side that bamboo really has the possibility of replacing steel.

After closing the file, he remembered what he said to Yan Yue in the afternoon, hoping to find some plants that could replace steel.In fact, what he was thinking at the time was trees like clams.Lu Lingxi once read in a book before that there are several kinds of precious trees in nature. The wood is as hard as steel, which can be anti-corrosion, bullet-proof and anti-corrosion. etc.But these kinds of trees are all precious and unusual, especially the slow growth is not easy, which is not conducive to large-scale promotion.

In Lu Lingxi's view, the biggest advantage of bamboo over them is that it grows quickly, and it is convenient and low-cost to plant.If bamboo can really replace steel after proper treatment... Just thinking about this possibility makes him excited, and he can't wait to find some bamboo plants right away.These thoughts ran back and forth in Lu Lingxi's mind, and he didn't fall asleep until midnight.

When he opened his eyes the next day, Lu Lingxi's mind was full of bamboo, so that he seemed a little absent-minded all morning.

At 08:30, Yan Yue came to pick up Lu Lingxi to the store on time as if he clocked in at work.Usually Wang Shuxiu always regards her appearance as empty, but today she unexpectedly smiled at him.Yan Yue was a little surprised, but his expression remained calm.When he saw Lu Lingxi's slow reaction, he realized what Wang Shuxiu's change of attitude meant.

As soon as the two of them went out, Wang Shuxiu asked Xiao Feng in a low voice behind him, "Did Xiaoxi and Yan Yue quarrel, why do you look listless?"

Xiao Feng didn't believe that the two would quarrel at all, and comforted Wang Shuxiu with a smile, "Why, don't worry about it." He then teased Wang Shuxiu, "Besides, it's not good for the two to quarrel, Xiaohua, don't you like them together? "

Wang Shuxiu gave Xiao Feng an angry look, Xiao Feng shook his head with a broken smile, and didn't speak any more.Maybe all mothers are like this, don’t look at Wang Shuxiu’s yelling that she doesn’t want Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue to be together, the two really have a problem, she starts to worry about whether Lu Lingxi will be unhappy, and hopes that Yan Yue can make Lu Lingxi happy , This is the so-called caring makes chaos, so worry about it.

Wang Shuxiu was thinking wildly at home, Yan Yue helped Lu Lingxi fasten her seat belt, and asked him with a smile: "Xiaoxi is still thinking about bamboo?"

Lu Lingxi nodded, a little embarrassed, "Brother Yan, do you think I'm whimsical?"

"No." Yan Yue affirmed, "Now we have the relevant technology, but we usually don't care about it."

Like Lu Lingxi, Yan Yue checked a lot of news last night.He didn't pay much attention to these things before, but only last night he realized that replacing steel with bamboo was not a crazy idea of ​​him and Lu Lingxi, but a direction for the development of the international environmental protection industry.Whether it is the bamboo reinforced concrete in the past or the current high-tech research, relevant people have been working hard to apply it to practice.Certain pavilions at the Haicheng World Expo in the past two years are the best examples.

Especially with different concerns, Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue looked at the materials in different directions.Lu Lingxi didn't understand the technology Yan Yue was talking about, but he thought that technology was only one aspect, and the most fundamental thing should be the bamboo itself.

Yan Yue nodded in agreement, "Xiaoxi is right, the most fundamental thing is the bamboo itself."

"Brother Yan, shall we try to find a few suitable bamboos? I still have 5 Force of Nature points." In addition to returning the Force of Nature rewards from the panel upgrade last time to the panel, Lu Lingxi herself still has 5 points left.He has been reluctant to use it, thinking about keeping it just in case.Now it can be used to evolve bamboo and see what effect it will have.

His eyes were eager, and Yan Yue couldn't help laughing. "Okay, let's try to find a few suitable bamboos."

There are many types of bamboo, but not all of them are suitable for construction, generally speaking, the most common is Nanzhu.Yan Yue told Xue Yongtong to help him find some bamboos.Xue Yongtong who received Yan Yue's call was a little strange, why did Xiaoxi miss bamboo again?Although most of the bamboos are produced in the south and not very common in the north, it is not difficult for Xue Yongtong to find a few bamboo plants, and he readily agreed.

In less than two days, Xue Yongtong found the bamboo that Lu Lingxi wanted. He specially selected a five-year-old healthy bamboo body, and planned to transplant it to the flower garden of Micro Gardening.When Xue Yong called, Yan Yue and An Jie were accompanying Ye Kang to find a suitable apartment outside.Ye Kang lived in Yecheng's house for two days. On the first day, Erha could restrain his nature, pretending to be innocent and well-behaved, but on the second day, Erha turned Yecheng's house into a demolition site.

Ye Kang still dare not recall Ye Cheng's expression when he saw the scene at home. At that time, he only felt that his back was chilly, and Ye Cheng's dark face could scare people to death.Erha probably knew that he had caused trouble, so he hid in the bathroom and refused to come out.Ye Kang wanted to go to the bathroom after cleaning up the house, so he had to go around to Ye Cheng's bedroom, and was poked countless times by Ye Cheng's eye knife.Ye Cheng endured it all night with great perseverance, and packed Ye Kang and Erha the next morning and drove them out.

When Ye Kang talked about this incident, he was rather gloating, and he even specially showed Yan Yue and Anjie the photos he took of the scene.Those who are familiar with Yecheng know that he has a slight obsession with cleanliness in addition to being vengeful. Considering the tragedy of the demolition site, it is incredible that he could resist driving Ye Kang and Erha out that night.

"How is this apartment?" Yan Yue asked Ye Kang.

Ye Kang circled around, touched Erha, who followed him step by step, "What do you think, Erha?"

Erha looked at Ye Kang with a pair of innocent big eyes, and Ye Kang gave it a funny finger, "You just pretend." He chose to live in an apartment because he could raise a dog here, and no matter how Erha struggled, someone would give it to him. Clean it up, he just needs to pay for it.

"Okay, let's go here. Next door is An Jie's room, Erha can have one more place to play."

The corners of An Jie's mouth twitched slightly when he heard this, he really didn't want his place to become the place Ye Kang said Erha played.

While several people were chatting and laughing, Yan Yue received a call from Xue Yongtong.On the phone, Xue Yongtong mentioned that he had transplanted the bamboo to the flower garden, and asked when they would go to have a look.

"So fast!"

Xue Yongtong laughed, "Xiaoxi's matter must be taken care of."

After hanging up the phone, Yan Yue planned to pick up Lu Lingxi and go to the flower garden later, and he could live in the flower garden at night.Before he had time to tell Lu Lingxi, Ye Kang eagerly wanted to go with him.Yan Yue was helpless, so he simply took An Jie with him and went to join in the fun.

Because they had to rush back to the city at night, they left the house after lunch, and it was less than two o'clock when they arrived at the flower garden.Compared with Fengcheng City, the environmental changes in Lingshui Village are more obvious.Before Ye Kang entered the village, the first thing he saw was the big willow tree rooted at the entrance of the village.Looking from the road along the way, the big willow trees are tall and majestic, with luxuriant branches and leaves, the crowded willows are hanging down, and thousands of green ribbons are fluttering in the wind.

Ye Kang was taken aback. When he came to the flower garden last year, the big willow tree was not so tall. In just over half a year, the big willow tree seemed to be two or three meters taller.

"I remember you saying that this willow tree was struck by lightning once?"

"how?"

Ye Kang joked, "I suspect that it was a tribulation when it was struck by lightning."

Yan Yue glanced at him speechlessly, and Ye Kang laughed.

Compared with the newly transplanted bamboo, Ye Kang is obviously more interested in the big willow tree.As soon as I got out of the car, I asked Erha to go and have a look around the big willow tree.An Jie came to Lingshui Village quite a few times, and he was not as sensitive to the changes of the big willow tree as Ye Kang, but he became curious after being told by Ye Kang, and they went to the vicinity of the big willow tree together.

Both of them knew the door, so there was no need to worry that they could not find their way back.Yan Yue left them outside at ease, and went to see the transplanted bamboos with Lu Lingxi.Nanzhu does not have high requirements on the soil, as long as it is fertile, moist, and has good drainage and air permeability. The soil of micro-horticulture has been purified, which almost meets all the requirements for the growth of Nanzhu.

When the two passed by, Uncle Li was curiously looking at a few solitary bamboos.As for this southern plant, Uncle Li saw it once in Fengcheng Botanical Garden a few years ago.He smiled and asked Lu Lingxi, "Does Xiaoxi want to eat bamboo shoots?" Otherwise, he couldn't think of the reason why Lu Lingxi transplanted so many bamboo plants.

Lu Lingxi was a little embarrassed when she heard this, and she didn't know which would be more funny, the real reason or the desire to eat bamboo shoots.Seeing that he didn't speak, Uncle Li thought he had guessed what Lu Lingxi was thinking. The little baby was thin-skinned, so he laughed and smoothed things over.

Uncle Li watched it for a while and went to do other things. Lu Lingxi clicked on the white panel, and Nanzhu's information appeared on it.

Botanical name: Bamboo

Plant Requirements: None

Plant viability: high

Generally, plants that have just been transplanted need a process of adaptation, and the survival rate of Nanzhu shows that it is obviously very adaptable to the environment here.Lu Lingxi looked at the panel, thinking about what to do next.According to his experience, plants will show their current state when they meet the evolution conditions, and bamboo bamboo obviously does not meet the evolution conditions at present, and it can only consume 5 points of natural force to promote its evolution.The problem is that last time the Dong Lingcao evolved by mistake, he couldn't find any prompts to choose the evolution of Nanzhu on the panel.

The thought flashed, and a line of green words appeared on the panel.

After receiving the spiritual command from the host, is it possible to consume five points of natural force to start evolution?

Lu Lingxi was stunned for a while, and decisively chose yes.
