The general is above [rebirth]

Since spirit plants are the food of contracted beasts, does Xiaobai's performance mean that there are spirit plants nearby! ?

Alvin scratched his head: "This is really unclear, and I don't have a contracted beast, but I have heard this saying that contracted beasts can sometimes be used as a spirit plant detector. After all, foraging is the instinct of living things. But they They also have a limited sense of smell, mostly only detectable when food is placed in close proximity."

"So that's it." Ye Ze glanced at the unresponsive detector and thought, maybe he was worrying too much.

"Speaking of which, why did the flying saucer turn?"

"Oh, there is the Astiga Mountains in front of us, which is not our search range. Originally, the probability of producing spiritual plants in the mountains is much higher than that in the plains, so they are the key objects of large-scale mining. As a result, the spiritual plants in the mountains are not as good as those in the forest. There are so many of them, so we small retail investors hardly go up the mountain.”

Ye Ze glanced back at the mountains that were fading away, and Xiao Bai in his body gradually calmed down.

He shook his head and continued to chat with Alvin: "What is the highest number of spiritual plants you have ever collected?"

"This, the luckiest time I picked up a remnant core of a three-star spirit plant! It probably fell during the large-scale mining. I was surprised, happy and scared at the time. I didn't dare to tell the people around me until I quietly Sell ​​them. Guess how much?"

"How many?"

"A whole [-] diru! It's just a fruit core! If it is a complete fruit, the price may be tripled! You know, there are only one hundred and one star grass plants, and I can only pick three or five plants a day. That time The windfall is almost equivalent to my monthly income."

Ye Ze was a little surprised: "Is there such a big difference between one star and three stars? How much do you sell high-level spiritual plants?"

"How should I put it, the three-star grade is not low. The middle and high-level spiritual plants can not only help contracted beasts replenish their physical strength, but also have other different functions, such as healing and healing, and even help contracted beasts advance. Ordinary rich children may not buy them. Affordable, let alone ordinary citizens. Moreover, high-level spiritual plants are not allowed to circulate in the market, and ordinary people can’t see them, so the three-star spiritual plants are considered precious to us ordinary people..."

"Di-"

The detector issued a sharp electronic beep, interrupting his words, Alvin looked down at the dial, and the next moment, the green pupils suddenly tightened.

"It's an orange signal!!"

The detector will use different colors to mark the spiritual plants of different stars. One star is yellow, two stars are orange, and three stars are red—it is a two-star spiritual plant!

Ye Ze's body also leaned forward unconsciously, could this be the reason why Xiao Bai suddenly became excited?

A small orange light flashed on the screen, and Alvin grabbed the steering stick and steered the aircraft to drive there.

Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the light spot, Alvin raised his head, and finally found a fiery red plant in a mangrove forest!

This plant did not grow on the fertile land, but took root abruptly into an extremely thick mahogany tree!

The stems and leaves of the plant are bright red, and bears a vermilion fruit on it.

"Two-star Vermilion Flame Fruit!" His big emerald green eyes lit up, and Alvin opened the glass cover on the outer layer of the aircraft, and slowly approached the fruit, intending to pick it.

At this moment, Ye Ze suddenly pointed to another light spot on the monitor that was rapidly approaching them, and asked, "What is this?"

The young man who was staring at the fruit was preparing tools, and when he heard this, he lowered his head and glanced casually, but his face suddenly turned pale.

"What's the matter—" Before he finished speaking, Ye Ze suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing towards them!With sharp eyes and quick hands, he hurriedly held the steering rod with one hand, and hugged Alvin with the other, leaning over to avoid it!

"Who?" Ye Ze squinted his eyes, looking at the unexpected guest in front of him.

Appearing in front of them was a young man in his 20s. He was also driving a small aircraft, parked beside the mahogany tree, holding the vermilion fruit they found in his right hand, and smiling provocatively.

The young man had a punk head, his hair was dyed a dazzling fluorescent orange, he wore seven or eight studs in his ears, and he was wearing a rock-and-roll denim jacket. He looked like a hooligan.

"Hey, you're pretty lucky, you little brat~" The young man raised his chin towards Alvin, "I was following you to ask you for two star grasses, but I found this, haha ~"

The PM3000 landed slowly, Ye Ze glanced at the blond boy in his arms, but found Alvin's pale face, did they know each other?

The young man threw the bright red fruit high and grabbed it when it fell: "I accept this fruit with a smile."

Alvin's body stiffened immediately, but he still didn't make any statement, he just bit his lips and didn't speak.

Ye Ze raised his eyebrows, they obviously discovered Zhu Yanguo first, this person has been planning to grab it since he crashed into them with his aircraft, right?

He pursed his lips and walked towards the young man with big strides. Even this kind of bastard wants to snatch something from him, Ye Ze?

Unexpectedly, as soon as he took a step, he suddenly felt his sleeves tighten, and a white hand grabbed the corner of his clothes.

Alvin lowered his head, unable to see his expression clearly, he could only hear the voice coming from his mouth: "Forget it, Ze, let him go."

Ye Ze frowned a little bit: "Alvin..."

"Hahaha, your little wimpy personality hasn't changed at all! But I like it!" The young man smiled and put Zhu Yanguo into his basket, "For the sake of this Zhu Yanguo, I advise you , you are not expected to do this job at all, Fury and I are basically in charge of this area, what are you messing with! Have you paid off the money for buying this PM3000? Why don’t you make a fool of yourself? It's for sale..." When the number fell into excitement, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and subconsciously closed his mouth.

The young man raised his head and met a pair of pure black eyes.

Those were a pair of too deep black eyes. The owner of the eyes was obviously not scary at all, but those bottomless eyes seemed to contain an indescribable sharpness, which made him swallow the second half of the sentence. Back in the stomach.

Ye Ze glanced at the little bastard, and then turned his gaze back to the boy who was pulling his sleeve.

It seems that this guy's life is not so easy, he still owes foreign debts?Ye Ze sighed in his heart for accepting himself rashly like this, what a little idiot.

The sound of the launch of the aircraft came, and the young man who returned with a full load stared at Ye Ze several times. He wanted to provoke him a few more words, but in the end he didn't dare. He just snorted coldly and drove the aircraft away.

Ye Ze looked at the dejected blond boy, and asked after a while, "Why are you holding me back?"

There was imperceptible gentleness in his eyes, but his voice was cold.Alvin trembled again, and said in a low voice, "Well, he picked that fruit first..." His voice became smaller and smaller, as if he felt embarrassed too.

"Tell me Alvin, has he been doing this to you all this time?"

Judging from the way the little gangster got along with him, the other party was obviously a habitual offender!The most frightening thing is that Alvin seems to have become accustomed to this kind of thing, and he accepts it.

Sure enough, Alvin's head was a little lower, and he didn't make a sound, but he was already in a default posture.

Ye Ze was also silent, and he was a little surprised when he heard Alvin just said "sell the three-star fruit core without telling the people around him". After all, Alvin gave him the impression of a simple-minded boy, I didn't expect to have such thoughts.Looking at it now, he must have been bullied and blackmailed more than once by these older gangsters, which not only hurt himself, but also contributed to the arrogance of the other party.

"I, I don't want to..." Unable to bear the awkward silence, Alvin finally spoke first, his voice trembling, as if trying to suppress something.

"I tried to resist, but, but...they came to beat me...a lot of them..." The young man choked up slightly as he spoke, and big teardrops began to fall down.

He thought to himself, A Ze saw his cowardly side after all.Will be looked down upon, a "boss" like myself who can't even afford wages.

The more Alvin thought about it, the more sad he became, the hand that was holding the corner of Ye Ze's clothes was shaking.

Ye Ze was at a loss for words for a while, saying that men don't shed tears lightly, he actually doesn't like men who shed tears easily, but when such a thin and small boy was crying in front of him so that his body trembled, he still inevitably softened his heart .

Ye Ze gently put his hand on Alvin's shoulder, and his hand was very thin. The young man's shoulder was thin, as if he could hold it with one hand.

Alvin's emotions gradually calmed down, and he raised his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes. The fine teardrops were still hanging on the long golden eyelashes, reflecting crystal light in the sun.

He began to feel embarrassed, simply over-sexed, bit his lip and said nothing.

"Forget it." Ye Ze sighed helplessly, and gently embraced the thin young man.

Almost like a hug.Alvin opened his green eyes wide, and was a little stunned.

The sun gradually rose, and the whole forest was steamed with a faint fragrance of green grass. This kind of smell is like the person in front of him, the boy thought.

A man's voice came from above his head: "Forget it this time, but Alvin, do you intend to continue like this forever?"

Hearing this, the boy's tears, which were about to stop, began to flow out again, and Ye Ze suddenly had one head and two big ones.

"Then what should I do? I, I can't beat them... That Dali just now dealt with many gangsters of this generation, and even knew people from the Oswell family, I, I dare not sue them..."

Another member of the Oswell family?Ye Ze was stunned, it seems that the Oswell family is quite powerful on this planet.

"Hey, don't cry." Ye Ze looked at the young boy who was crying intermittently in his arms, feeling helpless, and tried to comfort him, "Look at him, people with real power will not follow him. This kind of hooligans are dating." Ye Ze explained, and patted Alvin's small shoulder lightly.

"It's probably a guy who pretends to be a tiger. The more you do this, the more arrogant they will be. Forget it this time. If there is another time, you can just refuse. If they dare to beat you, you can call me."

Alvin raised his head when he heard the words, his big emerald green eyes were shining, it was not the color of water stained by crying, but a luster full of hope, he asked softly: "Really?"

Ye Ze smiled, nodded and said, "Really. Alright, let's go to work."

The flying saucer slowly flew into the air, and Ye Ze looked at the strange plants below, and suddenly thought of something: "There are no plants in the mountains that humans can eat? Why don't we pick some and make them ourselves, not to mention saving money, and the taste is also delicious." It’s better than those nutritious liquid foods.”

"Do it yourself!?" It was just an ordinary suggestion, but Alvin opened his eyes wide, as if he had heard some terrible news.

"You mean—you can cook!?"

"I know how to do it, it's just mediocre craftsmanship. What's the matter?"

This is actually a modest statement. When living on the earth, cooking has always been a skill that Ye Ze is proud of.It's just that he doesn't know the tastes of people in this time and space yet, so he dare not boast.

Then again, what's so amazing about being able to cook?Why does Alvin have this expression?

"Aze! You are simply amazing~!" The boy with a slumped face just now had both eyes shining: "You have learned cooking? Could it be that you are a chef??"

Ye Ze always felt that something was wrong: "Could it be that here... only chefs can cook?"
