Upon hearing this, everyone nodded solemnly, obviously realizing the seriousness of the situation. The atmosphere in the building became more tense due to the appearance of this mutant black snake.

As the steward of the tower, Song Mingtao immediately gathered all the men to wear bows and crossbows or take hoes and axes for the safety of everyone, and began to conduct a thorough search of the patio and surrounding areas to prevent similar mutant creatures from lurking.

Everyone searched the patio and surrounding areas carefully, leaving no corner untouched.

Suddenly, Song Da exclaimed: "Come and see, there are snake eggs here!"

Everyone rushed over and saw a few white eggs in a flowerpot planted with spinach.

"Could this be the egg of the three-headed black snake?" Liu Dadong guessed in a low voice.

Everyone looked at each other, feeling more and more uneasy.

Ye Mei also became nervous: "Hurry up and deal with it. If more strange snakes hatch, it will be troublesome."

Su Yue, who came over, also nodded in agreement: "That's right, these eggs are too dangerous and cannot be left in the tower.

Daxi, you are responsible for dealing with the pots and eggs. Uncle Song, have them search again carefully, especially the flower pots for growing vegetables. Don't miss any of them."

Liu Daxi quickly agreed. He picked up a hoe and crushed all the spinach and eggs, then threw the flowerpot outside the building.

Song Mingtao immediately directed everyone to conduct a more detailed search. The men dispersed and carefully checked each flower pot, not leaving out any leaves.

Their movements were cautious and quick, for fear of missing any corner where danger might be hidden.

Just as everyone was silently praying that no more snake eggs would be found, time passed by minute by minute. However, just when everyone thought the search was about to end, Liu Danan shouted again: "There are more here!"

Everyone's heart tightened again, and they hurried over to check. They saw a few more white eggs lying quietly in a flowerpot in another corner. This discovery made everyone feel extremely bad, and no one knew how many such potential dangers there were in the surrounding building.

Song Mingtao's eyes revealed determination and resoluteness. "Keep looking! Make sure nothing is missed."

Finally, after a long and careful search, no new snake eggs were found. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed their tense nerves.

Just as everyone was dispersing, Su Yue found Song Mingtao and said, "Uncle Song, animals can mutate, and plants may also mutate. Have someone pay more attention to the livestock and vegetables downstairs in the next two days to see if there are any differences between them?"

Song Mingtao was a little surprised when he heard this: "Girl, it's not that weird, right?"

"You saw that the snake had three heads. I'm not saying that they will definitely undergo strange changes, but it's always better for us to be careful." Su Yue said.

After listening to Su Yue's words, Song Mingtao still had doubts in his heart, but he still arranged everything according to her instructions.

Everyone began to pay close attention to the livestock in the enclosure and the flower pots filled with vegetables and grains.

A few days passed, and the rain still did not stop, and the livestock in the enclosure were still the same as usual, eating grass as needed and resting as needed, with no signs of anything unusual.

The person in charge of observing the livestock reported the situation to Song Mingtao and Su Yue. Su Yue breathed a sigh of relief and thought to herself, "It seems that the water in the space really worked."

The people and livestock in the tower had been drinking the water that Su Yue took from the small pool in the space. The water seemed to have some magical power that protected the people or livestock who drank it from the effects of mutation.

However, something was wrong with the vegetable pots. The vegetables and grains that were once full of vitality began to show strange changes.

The first abnormalities discovered were in a dozen pots of spinach. The originally emerald green leaves began to become mottled and the color gradually turned red and green.

The cabbages also began to show signs of changes, with some leaves twisted and deformed, and some growing strange bumps.

The leeks that originally grew straight became curled up like mosquito coils. When one was pulled out, the original leek fragrance was no longer there, but a foul smell was emitted instead.

Grain crops were not spared either. The wheat seedlings began to grow wildly in a few days, and the wheat stalks became thick and hard, as if trying to break free from Hana-nin's restraints.

The servant who was in charge of looking after the vegetables and food was terrified and hurriedly reported the situation to Song Mingtao and Su Yue.

Su Yue found it quite novel after listening to the servant's description. But when she went to the first floor to check, she was stunned by the scene in front of her.

Honeysuckle's eyes were filled with fear: "This is too scary, how come these vegetables and food have become like this."

Song Mingtao frowned and said, "Girl, this rainwater seems to be problematic. We can't use this rainwater to irrigate the land anymore."

Su Yue's face was also very solemn. After thinking for a moment, she said, "First, we need to dig up and throw away these abnormal vegetables and wheat seedlings. We can't let them continue to grow in the surrounding building. We don't know what these vegetables will become in a few days.

For the remaining vegetables that have not mutated, use the water you got from the meeting house to water them. Don't use the rain water anymore. Then continue to observe and see if these mutations will continue to spread."

Song Mingtao frowned and said, "Miss, this meeting house only has five or six buckets of water every day. I'm afraid it's not enough to water the vegetables now."

The water in the small pool in the space is inexhaustible, so Su Yue is not worried about this problem.

"I will put ten buckets of water in the meeting room every day. If it's still not enough, you can ask me for more. The water in the meeting room is also rainwater, but I used some medicine myself to make the water free of virus infection." Su Yue was worried that everyone would ask her where she got so much water, so she simply explained it in advance to shut everyone up.

After listening to Su Yue's explanation, Song Mingtao's doubts were slightly alleviated. He immediately arranged for people to do as Su Yue instructed and shoveled away the mutated vegetables and wheat seedlings.

When Su Yue turned around and wanted to go back to her room, she brushed past Zhong Tie's wife. She smelled a faint fishy odor on Zhong Tie's wife.

Su Yue subconsciously glanced at Zhong Tie's wife, and saw that she was scratching the back of her hand while watching others shoveling the vegetables.

Su Yue's eyes fixed on Zhong Tie's wife. The faint smell of stench just now set off alarm bells in her heart. She looked at Zhong Tie's wife scratching her hand, and an ominous premonition came to her mind.

Seeing Su Yue staring at Zhong Tie's wife, Nanny Yang asked in a low voice, "Miss, is there something wrong with Zhong Tie's wife?"

Upon hearing this, Rendong also looked at Zhong Tie's wife, only to see that she was scratching the back of her hand from time to time. In her opinion, there was nothing wrong with Zhong Tie's wife, she was just bitten badly by a mosquito, otherwise she would not keep scratching the back of her hand.
