A very low-key jeep drove into a small valley deep in the Hengshan Mountains in the afternoon.

As soon as he got out of the car, Gu Xi felt a wave of pure energy rushing towards his face.

Shen Yue jumped out of the car from the other side, turned around and explained: "The farms near here will send crystal nuclei here every once in a while..."

Gu Xi nodded, understood, this place is equivalent to the bank's vault before the end of the world.

only……

"Why are sweet potatoes planted everywhere here?" Gu Xi asked very puzzled.

It's not that she looks down on sweet potatoes, it's just that planting sweet potatoes all around the vault makes Gu Xi feel...how should I put it, it's kind of weird.

Shen Yue lazily raised his eyebrows, and sighed: "There's nothing you can do about it. Do you still remember the bag of sweet potatoes you gave Qin Yi back then?"

Gu Xi nodded. That day, when she met the sisters of the Qin family for the first time, Qin Yi was very enthusiastic and gave her a pack of compressed biscuits, so she gave her a bag of sweet potatoes as a gift.

When Shen Yue said this, he didn't know what he thought of, turned around and looked at Gu Xi with a little strangeness, and then explained the whole story.

It turned out that the bag of sweet potatoes was sent to the military experts at the first time. After several experts' research, although those sweet potatoes could not be used as improved varieties, the experts discovered another possibility.

That is, the reverse evolution of plants.

The military department's experiments in this area were much earlier than the experiments conducted by the two professors in the experimental field.

But not long after, the experts of the military department discovered that the reverse evolution of plants actually requires a lot of energy just like malignant transformation...

But the military department didn't have another Gu Xi, so they could only pay attention to the crystal core warehouse.

So the surrounding area of ​​this valley is forced to be full of sweet potatoes?
Gu Xi was stunned.

No wonder she felt a little strange before. The two professors chose upland rice and fruit, so why didn't they use sweet potatoes for the experiment?

You must know that sweet potatoes are the most important staple food today, especially in the past 30 years, more than 90% of the country's population is fed with sweet potatoes.

But it turns out that the military department has already started to do experiments in this area?

Do not repeat the experiment, but also save the waste of resources.

pretty good.

"...So why is the military looking for me this time?" Gu Xi looked at the sweet potatoes all around, and asked hesitantly.

"There is something wrong with our experiment recently, and we need your help, Comrade Gu." Shen Yue didn't answer her, but an old man dressed as an old farmer came out from the sweet potato field beside him.

"Hello, Comrade Gu, I'm Ouyang Rui." The old man smiled and stretched out his hand to Gu Xi: "I heard you were injured? Are you okay?"

Gu Xi smiled and held the old man's hands: "Hi, Professor Ouyang. My health is fine."

Gu Xi didn't expect to see Ouyang Rui again on such an occasion after many years.

And Ouyang Rui was one of the teachers she personally selected for Xu Yiersan back then.

It's just that I haven't seen him for many years. This old Mr. Ouyang has changed so much that she didn't recognize him just now.

But soon, Gu Xi wanted to understand the reason why Mr. Ouyang appeared here.

Professor Zhao said that almost all the seeds today come from the Ability Research Institute. If the military does not want to be controlled by others forever, they can only find another way.

So this old Mr. Ouyang, who was over eighty years old, became famous as a young man, and was already a botanical expert before the end of the world, would be the guest of honor of the military.

……

At night, just as Gu Xi came out of the military laboratory, he saw Qi Xiang walking around anxiously outside from a distance.

Gu Xi couldn't help raising her eyebrows:?
"Gu Xiaoxi." Seeing her, Qi Xiang hurriedly strode up to meet her, and said in a low voice, "Zhang Cheng took the initiative to contact us."

Ever since the incident with the Grand Canyon N0003, Zhang Cheng's attitude has become very strange, as if he wasn't the one who showed his affection and revealed the news.

At first, Gu Xi was a little puzzled.

Until Shen Yue told her that the matter of the crystal nucleus being stolen and changed, the superior had already found out the private breeding farm on the outskirts of Nancheng...

Gu Xi vaguely understood that Zhang Cheng probably planned to take advantage of them in this matter from the very beginning.

But at this time, the investigation is not over yet, why did the other party suddenly take the initiative to contact them?
This matter... is strange.

"What did he say?" Gu Xi asked after thinking about it.

"I didn't say anything specifically, I just said that I would take my friends to play at the Nancheng base when I have time." Qi Xiang curled his lips and said, "I heard what he meant, and it seems that he wants to talk to you face to face?"

so...

Gu Xi squeezed the hand of the sweet potato vine and paused slightly.

"That's fine." She gently broke off the sweet potato vine in her hand: "When I finish my work here tomorrow, let's go to the Nancheng base again."

But what Gu Xi didn't expect was that this time Zhang Cheng actually played a big game for her.

"Little Gu, don't be cautious. This is Director Zhou of the Ability Research Institute." Zhang Cheng was honest, and said straight to the point: "This time, Director Zhou mainly wants to see you, and I am just a middleman. "

Gu Xi lightly tapped Ya Bao's hand, paused slightly, and looked up calmly.

In Zhang Cheng's office, besides himself, there were Zhou Jinyu, Ye Nan, and Ye Junhan.

Zhou Jinyu actually brought Ye Nan and Ye Junhan to Nancheng secretly, but she didn't hear any news beforehand.

Is Li Ming deliberately concealing it?Or... Gu Xi's gaze passed Ye Junhan's body without showing any trace, and finally fell on Zhou Jinyu's body.

Zhou Jinyu nodded to Gu Xi with a smile, and said gently, "Little Comrade Gu, I invited you in this way, didn't I scare you?"

Immediately, he looked at Qi Xiang who was standing next to Gu Xi, and added with a smile: "Xiao Xiang is also here. Just in time, I was worried that Comrade Xiao Gu would feel uncomfortable alone."

"Why did Uncle Zhou come to Nancheng suddenly?" Qi Xiang calmly put his arm on Gu Xi's shoulder, and sat on the sofa opposite them.

She was apprehensive in her heart, but she smiled sweetly on her face: "You are such a busy person, it is rare to see you leave the central base..."

As she said that, she shifted her gaze to the two people behind him: "Hey, Team Ye and Miss Ye are here too?"

Zhou Jinyu smiled gently: "This time I came to Nancheng for a private trip, mainly for Xiaoye."

For Ye Nan?

Qi Xiang raised his eyebrows slightly, and subconsciously looked at Ye Nan beside him.

On the side, Gu Xi pressed her wrist calmly.

Seeing Zhou Jinyu looking over from the opposite side, she explained gently: "It's like this, Xiaoye is also very interested in the reverse evolution experiment of plants. Two days ago, she found some information... So this time, we are Came to ask for advice."

Zhou Jinyu was honest, and directly stated the purpose of this trip.

Zhang Cheng sat on the side with a happy face, but he was very disdainful in his heart, why did he come to ask for advice?Isn't it just for the sake of asking for other people's scientific research results?
Therefore, some people look so sanctimonious, but eating is really ugly.

Zhang Cheng involuntarily looked at the young girl opposite.

At first, he thought that Gu Xi was just a refugee girl who had just returned to the human base. No matter how outstanding her planting talent was, as long as she was favored by those big shots, it was just a matter of saying a word.

But now...

Thinking of 01's warning to him, Zhang Cheng no longer dared to think so.

Gu Xi was also taken aback, she didn't expect Zhou Jinyu to push Ye Nan out.

Does Ye Xin know about this?
Gu Xi's eyes subconsciously fell on Ye Nan.

This girl is really similar to her mother.Looking at her, it was like seeing Ye Xin back then...

"What does Miss Ye want to ask?" She collected herself and asked.

Ye Nan was clearly prepared.

She nodded at Gu Xi, opened her palm slightly, and opened the light screen: "Miss Gu, I'm sorry to trouble you. It's like this, I'm in the experiment..."

Ye Nan's questions were very sharp, almost pointing directly at the core of the experiment.

Qi Xiang was a little dissatisfied, what happened to Ye Nan?Everyone is in the same circle. Does she not know what to ask and what not to ask?

Those who know, say that she is dedicated to learning and are not ashamed to ask; those who don't know, think that she is blatantly trying to steal Gu Xi's scientific research results.

Qi Xiang frowned, and was about to choke back, but Gu Xi answered without reservation.

Gu Xi has not systematically studied theoretical knowledge in this area, so her answers are not limited to certain fixed formats, but are more concise.

Especially in the handling of supernatural powers, some subtleties made Ye Nan feel suddenly enlightened.

Even Ye Junhan, who was on the side, couldn't help raising his eyes to take a deep look at her after hearing this.

Zhou Jinyu still had a gentle look on his face. He nodded and turned his head to look at Ye Nan: "Xiaoye?"

Ye Nan was a little absent-minded, and her mood was a little complicated.

After a long silence, she looked up at the young girl opposite, and said slowly: "Miss Gu, are you willing to work in the Ability Research Institute? I can introduce you to my mother..."
