Rebirth Space Farming

Chapter 413 Unfamiliar old friend

Nanmen used to be a wonderful flower in the Chinese flower art school.

Even at its peak, the number of disciples in the South Gate was only ten.

Although the number is small, Nanmen's disciples can occupy a place in the domestic flower art circle and even the international flower industry after graduation.

Nanmen was on the decline in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, and the five "Song, Bamboo, Orchid, Meiju" who represented the last generation of Nanmen were the personal disciples of the last head of Nanmen.

Among them, except for Hu Song who abandoned his teacher halfway and Fang Wulan who died young in his prime, the rest Mao Dazhu and Mei Xiangbai Juyi had made some achievements in their respective fields when they were young.

Only Mao Dazhu and Bai Juyi were the only ones Xiaoxian had ever come into contact with. The two old men had divergent personalities, and their final endings were also quite different.

Although Mao Dazhu has no promise in flower art, he is in his twilight years, full of children and grandchildren, and is very busy between bamboo art and the nursing home.

After Bai Juyi and Mei Xiang separated, they lived alone for many years, and their temperament became increasingly withdrawn. When the fuel was exhausted, they met Xiao Xian, and they found someone who could learn the skills.

And what kind of person will Hu Song be?

Curious about the only senior among the "Five Gentlemen" who left the country to make a living in another country, Xiao Xian, accompanied by Locke, went to the home of old man Hu Song.

There are no great achievements in Hu Song's life that are worthy of praise. He is one of the countless young people who were forced to give up their ideals by family and life in the backward era.

The first half of his life was extremely rough, and when he was old enough to enjoy the blessings, he unfortunately encountered that sudden car accident.

His cranial nerves were not damaged in the true sense, but in a state of blockage, a disease that could not be solved medically.

After Hu Song suffered from amnesia, his behavior basically reverted to his childhood. His wife died young, and his filial children hired a nanny for him to take care of the elderly.

"Most of the time, the old man just sits in the yard, just in a daze. He doesn't beg for food when he's hungry, and he cries when he falls. He's not easy to get along with," Locke said when he took Xiao Xian to Hu Song's apartment. , and talked to Xiao Xian about the old man.

A child's temper comes from his temper, so he doesn't know how to look at the faces of the people around him.

Locke would come and sit for a while every once in a while.

The old man didn't recognize him anymore, and Locke could only sit dry.

"Uncle Hu, I brought your nephew over here." When Locke and Xiao Xian arrived, the old man was still sitting in the courtyard, motionless, as if he hadn't heard the other party's words at all.

The spring is sunny, and several cedar trees transplanted from Northeast China are growing just right.

Hu Song's nanny installed a bench for him in the yard, with a thin layer of blankets spread on it.

Hearing the greetings from others, the old man Hu Song seemed to have never heard of it. His eyes were fixed on the ground, where a row of black ants were crawling across the ground.

"No, he ignores people most of the time, even when Jeff comes here." Jeff is the eldest son of the old man, and he also inherited Yuelai Building.

Xiao Xian and Locke stood beside the old man Hu Song for a long time, and the old man didn't react extra, until the ants crawled out of sight, the old man moved his neck, and uttered a sound like a chasing sound towards Locke.

"He doesn't recognize you at all?" Xiaoxian wondered, because of her friendship with Mao Dazhu, she often went in and out of Fangjie Nursing Home.Most of the old people in the nursing home are healthy old people like Yu Shanyang who have busy children.But there are also a few special cases, such as dementia or poor memory.

Even in that case, at least when their children and relatives come over, there will be some reactions.

But old man Hu Song's amnesia is very thorough, he doesn't remember anyone or anything.

"We need to have a good chat with him. I have always suspected that Father Hu has special secrets of beekeeping. The batch of queen bees in the research center is not the first batch of bee species. Afterwards, I got the entrustment. It has been several years, and there is still no progress." The batch of queen bees that Locke successfully bred was introduced by the son of the old man Hu Song in the beehive of the farm, and he then handed over to Quinn was hired to help cultivate it.

"Are you sure it's the bee species imported from the original farm? And the person in charge of cultivating it, is it possible?" Xiaoxian has also been in Locke's research center for a while, and the quality of those queen bees is better than ordinary bees Many, but she hasn't seen the original bees, so she can't draw conclusions directly.

"The one who helped me grow bees was another senior researcher from Monsanto, whom Zi Ang also knew. That man was an orc. No one in the United States could compare to him in terms of animal cultivation. In other words, except Rost Serling, Quinn is the domestic authority in this regard," Locke has great confidence in Quinn.

Before Zhou Ziang came to Monsanto, Monsanto was mainly divided into two fields in the field of biological research, the field of animals and plants.There are corresponding leaders in their respective fields. Celine and Quinn belong to the field of animals, while Locke alone leads the research and development of plants.

Therefore, for decades, Monsanto's senior researchers have maintained the status of the Iron Triangle.The relationship between Locke and Quinn is closer, so after encountering the difficulty of breeding queen bees, Locke went directly to Quinn.

"Beastman," Xiaoxian's impression of orcs was based on Yiyi's foundation. Since the old man Hu Song couldn't get any useful information, Xiaoxian suggested to go to Quinn to see his training environment.The initial stage of breaking the pupa of the bee is completed in Quinn.

Only after Xiaoxian put forward such an idea, Locke hesitated.

Quinn's place of work is the most special and secret among all Monsanto, and the underground biological garden is not open to everyone.

"I'm afraid this is a little unreasonable. Besides, Quinn is a very irritable person. If there is no reason to meet him that interests him, he will not easily meet outsiders." Locke shook his head. He knew his friend's temper very well.

At this time, Hu Song who was sitting on the bench made a noise again, protesting that there were two more irrelevant outsiders in the room.

The nurse could only apologize and ask the two to leave first.

Before leaving, Xiao Xian looked back at the residence of the old man Hu Song. It was an unremarkable and simple western-style building, imitating a gray Chinese-style building. It could be seen that Hu Song's eldest son was a dutiful son who took good care of his father. It is still very meticulous. Although the old man has amnesia, his clothes are very clean, and even his hair is meticulously combed by the nurse.

Compared with the tidiness of the old man, the most striking thing about the whole building is the small courtyard, not because of the special plants and gardening in the small courtyard, but because of the sharp contrast between the small courtyard and the tidy old man.The ground of the small courtyard is very clean, but all the trees in the courtyard have not been pruned, the branches and leaves are disordered, all kinds of flowers are growing randomly, and there are a lot of flower remains in the flower pots.

After leaving the small bungalow, "Mr. Hu Song must have cared for flowers and trees during his lifetime. Why did he always ask someone to take care of his small courtyard?" In foreign countries, the cleaning of the general family garden is taken care of by the family.

"Yes, no matter how busy Mr. Hu used to be, he would tidy up the small courtyard on weekends. Before his accident, his small courtyard had always been a model garden in the street, and many people went back to get scriptures. But in his After the accident, the small yard was messy. I also asked someone to take care of it, but when those people came to trim it, Father Hu cried and made noises, and drove them out. After coming down several times, people were scared , let the vegetation in the small courtyard die by itself." Locke regretted that he was also an expert in plant cultivation, but he was good at the study of mutant plants, and he was not familiar with this kind of traditional gardening at all.

"So that's the case. Anyway, I still hope to discuss with the person you mentioned who cultivated the queen bee. As for what you said that interested him." Xiao Xian pondered for a moment, "Professor Locke, how many people are there in the world?" Orcs?"

Seeing that Xiao Xian suddenly changed the topic to the orcs, Locke hesitated, "The orcs are a very delicate branch in the human evolutionary chain, but most of the orcs will die when they are young, and they can live to adulthood and even carry on normally. There are no more than ten orcs in the world, according to Monsanto’s statistics.”

ten people?This number surprised Xiao Xian.In other words, Yiyi suddenly became a rare species that is much more precious than the panda baiji.If Yiyi knew about this, she would be proud for a while.

After confirming the rarity of the orcs, the thought in Xiaoxian's heart a few minutes earlier became more firm, "Senior researcher Quinn should have not seen the same kind for a long time, we can introduce an orc to him, or even be his." His successor, believe that, is enough to arrange for him to meet with us."

The orc that Xiaoxian mentioned was Yiyi.

Arranging a meeting between Quinn and Yiyi may spark some sparks. As far as Xiaoxian knows, there is no second case of orcs in China. An example of orc like Yiyi.Such a small ratio has certain advantages, but there are also many disadvantages.

The advantage is that the school attaches great importance to Yiyi, and this student exchange activity is the best proof.

For example, in the central computer, there are surprisingly few courses for Yiyi to study, and she doesn't have any seniors or internal materials to communicate with.Although Xiao Xian's situation is also very special, she still has the guidance of Mei Nian, Space Immortal Miao and even Bai Jiao, but Yiyi is different, her studies are always in the stage of self-exploration.

There is another reason for introducing Quinn to Yiyi. Yiyi seems to have diverted her attention and started to develop a relationship with Qu Yang. Here, he will not be furious when he sees Wang Shuai.

And Wang Shuai undoubtedly has a good impression of Yiyi. After Yiyi disappeared, and when Zhou Ziang explained that the Bronx was the most chaotic area in New York, Wang Shuai rushed to that area as quickly as possible without saying a word, and frantically searched for her. Yiyi's breath.

The words and deeds of the two and the concern for each other also made the future of this relationship more complicated and confusing.

Yiyi has lost her mother's love, and Xiaoxian still hopes in her heart that she can find a new emotion to make up for her mother's love.

During the exchange student period, any activities away from Yi Sejia must be jointly approved by the team leader of the home country and the hospital. He greeted Wang Shuai according to the procedure.

Hearing that the two were going to meet a senior researcher at Monsanto, and that they were going there under the recommendation of another senior researcher Locke, Wang Shuai became nervous. Reluctantly agreed to their request, but Wang Shuai added another condition, "I must go with you."

Xiaoxian couldn't find any reason to decline Wang Shuai's "good" offer, so she had to agree to Wang Shuai's company.

When Quinn learned that Locke was going to bring a new orc to visit, he readily agreed.

After Xiaoxian introduced Wang Shuai's identity, Locke heard that the other party was from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and put on a "spies" and "spy" face, scanning X-rays at Wang Shuai for a while.

Wang Shuai did not show weakness, pouted at Locke's broccoli hairstyle, and secretly questioned, Laomei is Laomei, with a serious degree of liberalization, and even such an important person as a senior researcher looks weird.

It was a long way to go to the underground botanical garden where Quinn was, and the four of them took the intercity high-speed rail.While sitting in the carriage, in order to ease the atmosphere, Xiaoxian had no choice but to gossip: "Professor Locke, can I trouble you to briefly talk about Dr. Quinn? You also said that he has a special temper."

It is already very polite to describe Quinn's temper as special.

In the eyes of the outside world, Locke is already a troublesome research maniac, but if you compare him with Quinn, Locke is absolutely normal.

"Oh, it's time for an introduction. Your name is Zhang Yiyi, right?" Locke spoke fluent English.

As a Jew, his talent for language flows in his blood. He took Chinese as an elective at Locke University, and he also worked as a training instructor for Chinese employees in Monsanto for a while.

He saw that Yiyi's English was not very good, so he switched to Chinese.Such a thoughtful move made Wang Shuai raise his eyebrows, and Yiyi nodded gratefully.

"What kind of orc do you belong to?" Locke asked inexplicably.

"Which category?" Yiyi didn't understand.

"Cold-blooded or hot-blooded? That is to say, do you usually have violent tendencies, eat raw meat or 'Locke asks more and more wrong.

Yiyi shuddered, while Xiao Xian and Wang Shuai looked at each other in blank dismay. Is that Quinn human?Or a monster?
