Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 1713: Natural Botanical Garden


...This is no coincidence.

While he was pretending to be concentrating on looking at the map, Lin Sanjiu's mind was already wandering to where he didn't know. It felt as if someone else was walking beside her; she had seen the world through Uichi Liu's eyes, struggled to save her fate with his hands, and when the heavy rain hit him, she was shivering with cold. But to Yaichi Liu, she is just a stranger without warmth.

She was so in a trance that once, when the wind messed up Wu Yiliu's hair, she almost reached out to help him brush it away.

Although Lin Sanjiu restrained her impulse in time, Wu Yiliu seemed to have noticed something strange. While remaining polite and decent, he looked at her inquiringly.

"You look a bit like a friend I used to know," Lin Sanjiu explained with a natural smile, knowing that she could never make him suspicious.

"Maybe people with ordinary looks are more similar." Yaichi Liu also replied with a polite smile.

To say that he is ordinary seems to be correct from a certain perspective - he obviously does not like to steal other people's attention, and prefers to wear this "ordinariness" as a coat.

Different from the young man sitting in the forest on a rainy night, today's house is dry, light and cool. Even when he occasionally smiled, the look in his eyes was as distant and indifferent as the silent thin clouds on the distant mountains. His movements were as quiet as the wind moving the shadows of the clouds, which would soon make people relax and almost forget or get used to his presence.

It is not easy for him to impress people at first sight; this is why Lin Sanjiu didn't pay much attention to him before he recovered his memory.

But now, Lin Sanjiu quietly took in all the details of his body: his hair was longer than before, hanging down his ears and neck, with soft curls; a few light white scars It spread from the side of his neck and into his collar; he was wearing the most ordinary loose blouse and black jeans. If it weren't for the various strange small objects wrapped around his hands, he could have disappeared into the pre-apocalypse without leaving a trace. Among the crowds on the streets of the world.

Lin Sanjiu just noticed that among the small objects on his hand that had no obvious function, he was also wearing a dull, ordinary-looking silver ring.

"Have you found the direction?" Wu Yiliu suddenly asked, causing her to snap back to reality.

When she and Fengzhen said goodbye, neither of them expected that Lin Sanjiu had just arrived and didn't know the way back. She had to go back to the building where she landed the aircraft before she could follow the path back to Exodus with the help of Salesis; according to the receipt issued to her by the parking lot, she knew the name of the destination building, but she had to rely on a map. Only then did I know how to go.

"I don't spend most of my time walking in the clouds," Uichiyanagi explained apologetically when she asked before, "so I'm not familiar with the roads here either."

Lin Sanjiu was not surprised at all.

She had never had this kind of misunderstanding before. She really thought that Ichiyanagi was a craftsman who deconstructed objects.

Since he is not a businessman who needs to come and go, it is natural that he cannot keep track of the journey; but she must act surprised and regretful, because before returning to Exodus, Lin Sanjiu cannot reveal the truth. , letting him see that she knew his origins - even though she felt that she was in a daze and might have exposed the secret long ago.

Shortly after recognizing Yaichi again, she thought about it and felt that only in Exodus could she truly be sure to trap Yaichi.

After all, Exodus can take off from the ground and enter high altitudes at any time, with Shales as a monitor and guard; except for Exodus, no matter where - in the building, on the road, or in the dungeon - she is not sure that she can do it without harming her. In his case, trap him without allowing him to escape and counterattack.

If it had been anyone else, throwing out a copy of Ah Quan would have been enough to solve the problem; but Lin Sanjiu knew very well that this trick might not work against Wu Yiliu.

Even if she is indeed a bit quick-witted, she is not arrogant enough to think that she can deal with Yayanagi. This kid - to Lin Sanjiu, Wu Yiliu will always be that young kid who hasn't graduated from college yet - has a flexible mind and a careful mind. Even if the person opposite him suddenly turns his face on him, he can still manage to do it in a thousand ways. He remained motionless under the impact of hundreds of thoughts.

Lin Sanjiu would never act rashly unless he was at his home court where he had an absolute advantage.

Thinking about it carefully, she couldn't even determine how Yaichi Liu's current combat power level compared with her own.

The first impression he left on people was very weak, and it was also matched with a combat power that seemed not enough to make people alert; only when she began to think about Wu Yiliu carefully, did she develop feelings for his indifferent and harmless temperament. I was confused - it seemed like I was surrounded by thick layers of milky white mist, and I couldn't see the bottom.

This made her more cautious. Facing a cautious and resourceful person, it was not easy to disguise her true intentions. She quickly determined what she should do to make him feel at ease to go back with her - simply, naturally, and only tell the truth; she could not tell the truth. Let’s just not talk about the part.

"Oh, we should go from the Natural Botanical Garden next," Lin Sanjiu replied with a smile, clicked on the map posted on the wall, and said, "My aircraft is in the parking lot of this building... You see, the Botanical Garden seems to be the nearest way."

When Zaiwu Yiliu just heard her say that he needed to take a plane to reach his workplace, he thought for a few seconds with suspicion before nodding. Lin Sanjiu looked at him with a look that was a little funny: She I can be absolutely certain that his doubts are all false. Even if she told him that her workplace was below the smog layer, I'm afraid he would still nod, right?

She did not expect that a place called "Natural Botanical Garden" has nothing to do with nature or plants.

"This...is this the Botanical Garden?" When Lin Sanjiu and Wu Yiliu followed the flow of people and walked behind the tall green glass door of the Botanical Garden, she looked around and swept her eyes from the rows of cells under the shed. , couldn't help being surprised: "Where are the plants?"

Not far away, a square-faced man squatting under the pergola happened to hear her words, pointed to his side, smiled and said casually: "Don't these grow in pots?"

Lin Sanjiu stared at the basin at his feet, not knowing what to say.

If you use some imagination and set the standards very loosely, then indeed, you can barely tell that it is a "plant" - long strips of steel bars growing out of the soil in the flower pot. , isn’t it just like the branches and stems of a plant? Don’t the iron-colored squares hanging at the ends of the steel bars look like plant leaves?

"What on earth is this..." She wanted to ask but didn't know where to start. She looked at the flower pot and found a label on it that read "Construction Site."

She could still guess without labels, but with labels it made her even more confused.

Besides the square-faced brother, there are several identical terracotta flowerpots surrounding him. Not just around him, looking around, there were varying numbers of terracotta flower pots with the same appearance sitting under each pergola; the only difference was the "plant" in each pot.

In some pots, a straight black wooden pole sticks out. The wooden pole is covered with fine thorns, and small, invisible "fruits" are hung on the fine thorns; in some pots, there is a large bush of lush The "antlers" and each downy leaf are clones of the same small round beads - the flower pots are often labeled with various labels, from "Construction Site" to "Eye of Jealousy" , to name a few.

The botanical garden occupies a small area, with not many pergolas, but a lot of people. Among the endless crowd, there are faces looking back and forth at the "plants". From time to time, someone stops and talks softly with the owner of the flowerpot. On the far right side of the botanical garden, against the wall, is a pavilion with a "Buy Flower Pots" sign.

"The flower pot is a one-time item, specially used for mass reproduction. It is the exclusive signature of the Rainforest Group and one of their main financial resources." Yaichi Liu opened his mouth in time and asked: "Do you know about mass reproduction? ?"

Lin Sanjiu looked confused.

"It's very simple. Taking this flower pot as an example, as long as the special item planted in meets the conditions, a plant will grow; when the plant grows and matures, it will produce more of the same special item. ."

For Wu Yiliu, this seemed to be a very ordinary and natural thing, and even his tone did not fluctuate much. On the contrary, Lin Sanjiu was so surprised that his voice rose five degrees: "Ah? Can you copy more Items? How many of them can you plant? Is there such a good thing?"

Yaichi Liu smiled politely. "Their group only produces a few dozen flowerpots a year at most, so their influence is mainly limited to the two twelve realms. It's normal that you haven't heard of it."

"Then...every plant is a special item?" Lin Sanjiu walked a few meters along the pergola and had to pull his eyes away from the last plant~IndoMTL.com~ Only then can you immerse yourself in the next plant again. "They all seem very small...are their effects and powers the same as the original items?"

"It's all the same," Wu Yiliu replied patiently: "But the fruit can no longer be planted in the flower pot. Oh, this is good."

Lin Sanjiu followed his gaze and found that there was a small tree in the flowerpot, but it only had five or six branches. The branches were about as long as a girl's forearm, and on each branch, there were people sitting on them. There is a beautiful little house with a peaked roof and whitewashed walls; the label on the flowerpot reads "Luxury Mobile Home."

The small house attracted the attention of several people, but for Lin Sanjiu, it was useless. She said "hmm" through her nose, and continued walking forward without stopping; Wu Yiliu seemed to be very interested in it, and after looking at it for a few more times, she followed and sighed: "It's a pity that a mobile home must be very interesting." Expensive. In Wandering Cloud, ordinary residences are almost unaffordable... Where do you live?"

Lin Sanjiu thought for a while and said, "Have you heard of Big Fish Market?"

Wu Yiliu turned his head, looked at her, and showed an almost tolerant smile.

"...Since when did you know that I am not a craftsman of decomposition?"
