Chapter 14 Where did the sweet potato go
There are quite a lot of moths and butterflies in this forest, without Gu Xi taking action, Qin Yi quickly caught a bunch of them by himself.

Guessing that it was enough, the two returned along the same route.

Wei Heng is a diligent person with quick hands and feet. When they returned, more than half of Gu Xi's one hundred acres of wasteland had been cleared.

And Qin Shi with a cold face stood in the cleared ground, using supernatural powers to strangle the roots of those plants deep underground.

Qin Yi glanced at it, then handed those moths and butterflies to Gu Xi, while he happily ran back to the other side of the creek, and brought watermelon seeds.

Hearing that there are watermelons, Wei Heng's envious eyes straightened.

He jumped off the farming machine and asked the two wood-type supernatural beings present, "Which one should we plant first?"

"Watermelon." Gu Xi and Qin Yi said in unison without hesitation.

Gu Xi originally wanted to see what would happen to the plants grown by other wood-type supernatural beings; unexpectedly, Qin Yi directly stuffed the watermelon seeds into her.

Gu Xi couldn't shirk the reason she gave.

"Gu Xi, of the watermelons I planted before, only one or two times out of ten are edible, but the coefficient of variation is very high; the taste is worth mentioning. It is completely different from the taste depicted in those food videos before the end of the world. no the same."

"Besides, I only have these watermelon seeds in my hand. If I fail again, there will be no watermelon to eat." Little Sweet Girl said pitifully.

Watermelon seeds are extremely rare seeds in the major bases, and I don't know when I will have to wait until I apply next time.

Gu Xi was silent.

Soon, she knew the reason why Qin Yihui's planting failed.

——These watermelon seeds contain a lot of weird energy. According to the existing measurement standards, the coefficient of variation should be around 2.5.

The seeds are all like this, how can it be possible to grow watermelons with a low coefficient of variation?

Ordinarily, the situation is unclear now, so Gu Xi shouldn't expose herself.

But she really wanted to eat watermelon.

As the saying goes, people with high skills are bold.

Because Qin Yi, a wood-type supernatural being, was by his side, Gu Xi was extremely careful in his operations this time.

After she injected her own abilities into these watermelon seeds, although she didn't devour them, she directly enveloped those strange energies, and then spawned and germinated...

One minute later, seeing the watermelon seedlings blooming, Qin Yi quickly made a cage out of rose vines without Gu Xi needing to speak, and caged all the moths and butterflies in the watermelon field.

After waiting for a few more minutes, Gu Xi continued to use supernatural powers to give birth.

Soon, ripe green-skinned watermelons covered the ground.

Only then did Gu Xi calmly withdraw her ability. From the beginning to the end, she did not devour that part of the strange energy.

Seeing that the watermelon in the field was ripe, Wei Heng and Qin Yi glanced at each other, and both jumped excitedly at the big watermelon.

Even the cool sister Qin Shi had a look of anticipation on her face.

Soon, the two picked the biggest watermelon. Qin Yi couldn't even wait to get a knife, so he condensed water into a knife and divided the watermelon into four big pieces.

Gu Xi took a piece and tasted it, the taste was far worse than those watermelons she had eaten before, I can only say that it was barely edible.

But the other three on the side ate with a look of happiness and contentment.

"Delicious!" Qin Yi took a bite, and his eyes lit up: "It's even more delicious than the watermelons I planted before."

"It's not bad." After all, Qin Shi is the elder sister, she is much more stable. Before eating, she even took out a portable measuring instrument to measure it: "The coefficient of variation is only 2.7, Gu Xi, you are very good."

These watermelon seeds were applied by her hand, so Qin Shi naturally knew what was going on.

To be honest, the coefficient of variation has only increased by 0.2. She has only seen this kind of situation at the Ability Research Institute of the Central Base.

But the person who shot that time was a high-level wood-type ability user with a level 9 ability.

Qin Shi couldn't help but look at Gu Xi more, maybe this person's use of wood-type abilities is even more powerful than her sister.

No wonder the higher-ups took the news so seriously...

Gu Xi didn't know what she was thinking, but when she saw her, she just smiled lightly and didn't speak; in private, she quietly "purified" the piece of watermelon in her hand with a supernatural power.

Without that strange energy causing trouble, Gu Xi tasted the familiar taste in her memory again, and immediately narrowed her eyes comfortably.

In order not to leave traces, she decided to eat the watermelon rind as well.

And after being purified by her abilities, the watermelon rind tastes extra crisp, sweet and delicious.

Qin thought that she should eat watermelon rind, and was stunned: "Gu Xi, no matter how much you like it, you don't have to do this, there are plenty of watermelons in the field..."

Gu Xi was still thinking about how to confuse this problem, when Wei Heng suddenly coughed twice, and said in a low voice: "Well, Gu Xi has always lived alone in the ruins..."

Qin Yi suddenly stopped talking, living in the ruins, food and water are always the most important things, as long as it is food, there is no reason to waste it...

Qin Yi felt a little sorry, thought for a while, and said to Gu Xi: "Gu Xi, you planted these watermelons, and they are all for you, but can you give me some watermelon seeds, and then grow me watermelons to eat?"

Gu Xi thought about it and agreed.

——Who told her to be so poor now, without a penny in her pocket?

Moreover, she really couldn't refuse such a small request that was not too much from such a lively and cute little sweet girl.

After eating the watermelon in their hands, the four of them sharpened their knives and rushed to the melon field. ——These watermelons have to be picked as soon as possible, and then left in the field, who knows if the coefficient of variation will suddenly become higher?

After harvesting the watermelons in the field, Gu Xi thought that the butterflies caught back could not be wasted like this, so he turned back to the house and took out those tomato seeds.

The same operation, once raw and second ripe, this time the tomato planting was very successful, because the coefficient of variation of the seeds itself is relatively low, and the taste of the fruit produced is even better than those original ecological watermelons before.

Wei Heng ate four of them in one go!

You know, these are mutated tomatoes, and each fruit weighs more than one catty.

Not to mention, he just ate a large watermelon weighing at least five catties!
After finishing these tomatoes, Gu Xi glanced at the time, turned around and went to the kitchen to bring out a pot of big sweet potatoes that had been steamed in the morning.

After taking the first bite of these sweet potatoes, the eyes of the Qin family sisters changed!

Since the great variation of animals and plants 30 years ago, there have been very few foods with a coefficient of variation within 1!

Not to mention that the coefficient of variation of these sweet potatoes is basically around 0.5.

This is the first time for the two sisters to eat such pure and sweet food!

Even Qin Shi, who is as steady as Qin Shi, seems to have tears in his eyes.

The two sisters secretly exchanged a look.

Gu Xi held the sweet potato in her hand, lowered her eyes, and ate it in small bites. The little green sprouts sneaked out and spun around her fingertips.

She was thinking, where will the bag of sweet potatoes she sent out yesterday afternoon be sent?

In the darkest period of the end of the world for many years, Gu Xi is used to being vigilant - no matter how deeply she sleeps, she will wake up at the slightest sign of trouble.

As soon as the man approached the other side of the creek last night, Gu Xi found out.

She had seen too much darkness and embarrassment in the last days... Thinking that there were two young girls living there, Gu Xi was a little worried, so she released a ray of spiritual power.

Then I "saw" a man in black taking the big bag of sweet potatoes from the hands of the two sisters...

At this moment, Qin Yi suddenly said: "Gu Xi, our sisters will work for you from now on, okay? We don't want anything else, just give me some sweet potatoes..."

Unexpectedly, before she finished speaking, Wei Heng on the side flatly refused: "No way. It is enough for Gu Xi to have me as a worker!"

He thought, Gu Xi only needs a hundred acres of wasteland in total, and she herself is a civil engineer. With this little land, how can she need others to work?

It is enough to have him alone!

Wei Heng is determined to keep his job, and will never give anyone a chance to take it away.

Gu Xi: "..."
