Interstellar Gardener

The three gardeners standing next to Yan Yang were almost dumbstruck with fright. They didn't understand why Yan Yang cut off the roots of the eucalyptus with a shovel.

Yan Yang's strength was not small, he went down with a shovel and dug out a lot of soil, even some tiny roots were exposed to the air.

He came in a hurry without gloves, and Gu Yu behind him was about to go to Ke Jin for a pair, but just after taking two steps, Yan Yang, who couldn't wait, started to use his hands directly, and his white fingers were instantly stained with black soil, which made Gu Yu look so beautiful. Yu frowned.

At this time, Su Su came to her senses, and handed the gloves that had been snatched from Xiao Curly to Yan Yang: "Put on the gloves, be careful not to cut your fingers in the cold weather."

Yan Yang waved his hand to signal that he didn't need it, and pointed to the tree roots that had been dug out of the soil and asked softly, "What do you think this is?"

A few people came over to have a look, and their faces turned pale with shock: "There are also frostbite down there!"

I saw that the root turned out of the ground was covered with dense brown spots the size of rice grains, as if there were countless bugs lying on it to absorb the nutrition of the root.

Yan Yang twitched the corners of his mouth, if it wasn't for the mud on his hands, he would have beaten them hard.The elm's head is already obvious, and it is said to be frostbite, which is almost suffocating.

He stretched out his hand, and gently wiped off a brown spot the size of a grain of rice in the sight of several people who were facing a formidable enemy. Only then did everyone realize that the brown spot was not frostbite, but something like an insect egg. up.

Everyone who watched felt their scalps go numb.

Things similar to insect eggs were tightly attached to the roots of the tree, and even gnawed out a hole in the roots, and stuffed themselves in, so at first glance, the roots did not have the unevenness of the adsorption, and everyone mistook them for brown spot.

"It's not frostbite!" Yan Yang pursed his lips, "It should be insect damage."

"It's impossible!" Little Curly couldn't believe it, because to detect the water absorption of eucalyptus, the camp's equipment has been closely monitoring the underground situation. If these are really insects, why didn't the equipment give an alarm?

As soon as he asked this question, Yan Yang immediately reacted: "Go, communicate with the inspector and ask him to check the instrument. If there is still no life response, maybe this kind of bug is weird."

At this time, Ke Jin persuaded the anxious people outside with all his words, and ran over sweating profusely: "Mr. Yan Yang, have you found out any problems?"

Yan Yang picked up the tree roots with a shovel and motioned Ke Jin to look carefully. The dense spots made Ke Jin's scalp tingle and goosebumps arose.

"What is this? Frostbite?"

Yan Yang is discouraged, although it is very similar to frostbite, but Minister Ke Jin, use your clever head to think about it, with the current temperature, how can the roots that take root in the ground be frostbitten? !

"No, it's pests."

"It's impossible!" Ke Jin's first reaction was that it was impossible, after all, the detection equipment was running at full speed these days.

"Yangyang...cough boss, the inspector said everything was normal with the equipment, and he checked it and found no life reaction." Panting, the little curly-haired man ran over with a bald mouth, and the blurted address seemed to reveal something.

Gu Yu, who was quietly behind Yan Yang, took a few glances at the little curly hair, and immediately made his heart shudder.

Yan Yang, who was concentrating on observing the roots of the eucalyptus, didn't care about the name of the little curly hair, and frowned. He didn't know this kind of insect. From the inspector's words, it can be inferred that this kind of insect can fool the machine.

"Minister Ke, can you call some entomologists, geological surveyors, and the group of people outside and let them in, let's brainstorm and see if we can recognize this kind of bug."

If you don't know this kind of insect, rashly killing insects may cause damage to the tree.

Ke Jin nodded, and the assistant at the side hurriedly left to ask the group of people outside to come in.

Not long after, the people who recommended themselves just now came over, they saw Yan Yang and nodded their heads as a greeting, then they circled around the eucalyptus tree to carefully observe the roots dug out by Yan Yang, took out their smart brains and took a high-definition big picture, Yan Yang stepped aside to make room for others.

"It's a bit like the larvae of silk termites!" One of the scholars came to this conclusion after careful observation.

"No, no, the larvae of silk termites don't eat tree roots, they look like hornworms to me."

"But for hornworms, the color should be green."

Yan Yang stood aside and listened to their discussion. He has no research on interstellar insects, and experts are still needed at this time.

Gu Yu, who was still there just now, did not know where to go now, and the three gardeners also squatted beside them to listen to the discussion.

A long leg blocked Yan Yang's view, and when he looked up, it was Gu Yu holding a wet towel.

"Where have you been?"

"Go get the towel." Gu Yu waved his hand, the towel in his hand was still steaming.

He squatted down under the gaze of Su Su, the little curly-haired Dahe and the three without changing his expression, covered Yan Yang's hands with a wet towel and wiped it gently, cleaning up the mud left between Yan Yang's fingers bit by bit, that was very careful. As if they were caring for a precious treasure, they saw their faces flushed, and they were ashamed to continue to be light bulbs, so they stood up and fled.

After Yan Yang's hands were wiped clean, Gu Yu stuffed him with another cup of hot tea, looking at the steaming tea in his hand, wondering if it was hot, Yan Yang's whole body softened.

"The discussion over there will take some time, do you want to take a break?" Gu Yu asked.

Yan Yang shook his head: "No, I hope it can be resolved soon, and then we will go home together."

Gu Yu smiled, and sat beside Yan Yang, watching him drink tea without blinking, Yan Yang was calm, anyway, he did everything he should and shouldn't do, he just watched and didn't know how to do anything , Thinking of this, he continued to listen to everyone's discussion in the distance with peace of mind.

It's a pity that Yan Yang's idea of ​​solving it early was doomed to fail, and no one told him clearly what this kind of bug was after half an hour.

Many people greeted him, and then took the bugs away, as if they were taking them to the laboratory for experiments. Yan Yang thought that the matter would be resolved soon, but he didn't expect to find nothing after a long time.

Jumping for a long time and a long distance, even if Gu Yu's spaceship has been modified, the two of them are not enough, and after sitting outside for a long time, the result is not ideal, Yan Yang soon couldn't hold it anymore, and was carried back by Gu Yu rest.

It was Gu Yu who forcibly pulled him up and fed him dinner, otherwise Yan Yang would have been able to sleep until the next day.

Early the next morning, Yan Yang went to see Eucalyptus after a hasty breakfast. The person in charge of testing told him that the condition of Eucalyptus was getting worse, which made Yan Yang's expression very ugly.

"They don't know each other. You can post it on the Internet for everyone to identify. There is a saying that is very good. The masters are among the people." Gu Yu reminded him.

Yan Yang's eyes lit up, and he quickly logged into his gardener account, uploaded the pictures he took yesterday to the space, then ran under the eucalyptus tree, cut off a section of tree root under the distressed eyes of everyone, and peeled off the bugs on it Shoot, ask everyone for help.

Yanyang V: Urgent help, the eucalyptus has been infested by insects, no one knows this kind of insects, does anyone know?As long as you know its detailed information, you can find out how to target it. Please help forward it.

Well-informed netizens have already known the cause of the incident. Even the dull ones, seeing the people who came and went to the experiment site in the past two days, realized that it was unusual. Now that Yan Yang posted the news, everyone felt that it was so true .

Energy is really important to everyone, so without Yan Yang saying much, everyone has already forwarded and spread it, hoping that someone can recognize this bug.

At the same time, they also had heated discussions in the message area.

"I was guarding outside yesterday, and I saw that Minister Ke Jin invited many people in, but no one knew him?"

"I thought Yan Yang was so capable, but he was helpless after a pest infestation."

"Fuck, your brain was kicked by a donkey? Yan Yang is a gardener, not an entomologist. Those who specialize in insects can't tell why. It's normal for Yan Yang not to know."

"Only if you know the specific information about the insects, can you take measures, otherwise, repelling the insects rashly may damage the roots of the eucalyptus trees. Don't open your mouth and spray. Have you read the dog's stomach?"

"I just took the picture of the bug to the smart comparison, and the data shows that there is no information about this bug. There are two possibilities, either it is a mutated species, or it is a new species."

"That's it, no matter it's a mutant or a new species, entomologists must be overjoyed. I feel sorry for Yan Yang. Before he can study the living habits of the insects, his experiment may be in vain."

Since posting the news, Yan Yang has been paying attention to the message, hoping that someone can stand up and answer the doubts.

It's a pity that none of them seem to be reliable.

Prudent people are helping him @编辑研究的研究大先生, and there are also people who tell Yan Yang that this is a certain bug, but the result is either he is speechless when he is refuted, or he flees after being questioned. No one is reliable. .

The discussion on the Internet was raging, and the heat continued unabated after three days, but Yan Yang was desperate.

Over there, the person in charge of testing told him that the water absorption of the eucalyptus trees had dropped to a terrible number, and if no measures were taken, these trees would only end in death.

Yan Yang gritted his teeth, since it is an experimental product anyway, why not try it with an anthelmintic medicine first, it doesn't matter if you don't know it, a kind of anthelmintic medicine is responsible for a tree, and it will be tested sooner or later.

"Su Su, go and buy all the insecticides on the market."

Can't wait any longer.

As soon as these words came out, the three gardeners present all looked surprised. They realized that there was really no way this time, and they had to take a gamble.

The little curly hair struggled: "Do you really want to do this?"

If one is not careful, the pest damage will turn into a phytotoxicity!

"I'll go right away." Compared to the two men, this girl was the most decisive one.

Within an hour, Su Su came back with all kinds of insecticides, and the little curly hair was very surprised.

"So fast?!"

"Minister Ke Jin's assistant has already prepared it. I just said it, and she gave it to me."

Drop drop-

At this time, Yan Yang's brain rang.

In the past few days, many people have privately believed in him, and put forward many suggestions, some of which are feasible, and some of which can be seen as nonsense by laymen. Yan Yang refuses to let go of any clue, so no matter how unreliable the private letter looks, he will take it seriously I really read it.

He opened his brain and found that the content was very long, with a graphic explanation attached.

The pattern above is exactly the bug that has troubled them for a long time!

"Wait a minute!" Yan Yang hurriedly stopped Su Su's little curly hair from pouring medicine into the soil.

He scanned the private message quickly, his eyes became brighter as he looked at it, and the corners of his mouth gradually raised.

"Yangyang, have you found a solution?!" The three of them ran over after throwing away their medicines as well.

Yan Yang easily enlarged the private message, and the virtual screen suddenly popped up in the air for everyone to watch.

The private letter told him that this kind of insect is called leech treeworm. Unlike leeches, this kind of insect likes water very much and absorbs a lot of water to grow, but they can only absorb water through tree roots, which is called leech treeworm.

It is said that this kind of bug is a native species of the planet. It was gradually extinct thousands of years ago as plants were difficult to survive. I didn't expect them to reappear.

It can be seen that the boss of the private letter is very excited, and he feels a bit inconsistent, but the habits of the leech tree insect are clearly introduced, and it shows that this kind of insect will climb to the ground when it grows to a certain extent. The only way to get rid of them is by booby trapping.

The boss also stated that he had already boarded the spaceship and was heading to Huiyun star immediately, and would assist Yan Yang in killing insects.

Yan Yang heaved a sigh of relief, no matter what, it would be best to kill. He cut off a section of the eucalyptus root as he said in the private message, squeezed out the sap and added the M095 insect attractant recommended by the boss. Leech treeworms create the illusion that they are grown enough to crawl out of the ground.

Yan Yang sprinkled the things on the tree pocket and waited quietly for the result.

Afterwards, Yan Yang and the three gardeners with Su Su's curly hair squatted under the big tree, holding their breath and staring at the ground.

Gu Yu in the distance shook his head and laughed.

These few days, seeing Yan Yang having trouble sleeping and eating because of bugs, he felt uncomfortable. After thinking about it, he planned to use his contacts to contact the honorary professor who won the Galaxy Award in the main star, but he didn't expect things to turn around suddenly.

Right now, watching Yan Yang squatting under the tree concentrating, the words asking him to rest lingered on the tip of his tongue several times, but finally he didn't say it.

Gu Yu walked over, put a small bench behind Yan Yang, and said helplessly, "Be careful of numb legs."

Yan Yang nodded and sat on the small bench, his eyes never leaving the ground, watching Gu Yu annoyed and amused.

In the evening, Yan Yang keenly noticed that some leeches crawled out of the ground, lying there for a short time and then stopped moving.

"Success!" Little Curly howled.

In the distance, rows of staff who were squatting and did not dare to disturb them immediately jumped up and cheered loudly.

Yan Yang turned around and looked at Gu Yu who was silently guarding behind him, the light in his eyes was as bright as stars, and he threw himself into Gu Yu's arms excitedly.

"Ayu, we succeeded!"

The author has something to say: There is another chapter tonight, which is also the last chapter of the main text. The time is uncertain, but it will definitely be updated, okay?
