Chapter 421

~Thank you "Le Hana" for dropping the New Year's money red envelope, this month should be the end month of this book, hehe, stay tuned~
After Locke gained a firm footing, what he saw was a dead cypress, a variant of the pine tree.

To eradicate the dead pine tree, it can be imagined that a few years ago, it was a big tree with a crown of three to four meters and a tree height of nearly five meters.In particular, this tree still grows under the seaside cliffs where the environment is quite harsh and there is almost no soil.

The roots of the tree had penetrated into the rock, and the gaps in the cracked rocks were filled with darkness. Below the cracks, only the sound of waves beating.

"It's unbelievable that such a tree can grow in this kind of place. Why is Father Hu so confused? After he found this tree, he should immediately report it to the government and protect it in time," Locke said with emotion. Like Xiao Xian, after being surprised, he soon noticed that there were traces of bees on the pine tree.

It still maintains a half-complete tree shape, and on the tallest dead branch, hangs an old black beehive with a corner missing.

Xiao Xian was agile, and with a few light climbs, he plucked off the old beehive.The beeswax in the hive has been dried, and a layer of sea salt-like substance has formed on the surface. When you scrape it gently with your hands, the beeswax will fall off, and some sticky matter will flow out of it.

"It's honey, isn't that the smell?" The brown mucus smelled sweet, and the mucus on Xiao Xian's hand looked like honey.

Locke took a sip, his eyes sparkled, and he said without hesitation: "It's this kind of honey. Papa Hu really used this pine tree to raise bees? It's a pity. If we came here earlier, maybe this honey A pine tree can still be saved."

From the cliff to the side of the pine tree, Xiaoxian and Locke also found some detached and cracked water pipes, a few rusty shovels, and a few scattered bags of soil, which seemed to be left over from lawsuits.

The growth environment of the cliff is too bad, and there is not enough water and soil. Before Hu Shi's accident, he must have come down to take care of the pine tree. After his memory deteriorated, the tree died without someone to take care of it.

Although the real reason for the queen bee's honey production has been found, the result is not satisfactory, and Locke can't help but feel a little disappointed.

"Professor Locke, it's not too surprising. I found a few pine cones nearby. You can bring them back to the laboratory for research. With your research ability and the excellent environment of the underground botanical garden, I can't think of a few years. Similar cliffs The cypress will definitely be planted successfully," Xiao Xian comforted Locke, and Locke thought it made sense after thinking about it.

After the two left, several lead gray seagulls stopped on the dead pine tree and combed their feathers.

"Xiaobai, take a look, isn't this sea area a bit special?" The female voice who went back and forth frightened several seagulls into flying.

From the cliff, Xiao Xian jumped down a few strides and stood in front of the pine tree again.On the way back to the research center, she found an excuse to separate from Locke, and hurried back to the cliff area.

There were very few people coming from the abandoned farm, so Xiao Xian took the courage to release Bai Jiao.

"Little master, the seas in the United States are different from those in China. Besides, it's not confirmed that the pine trees are dead, so what can we see next? There can't be another pine tree growing on the bottom of the sea." Xiao Baijiao was not very happy to go into the sea. Jump, it has been living in fresh water, those water and salt are not compatible, don't soak its beautiful scales.

"If you haven't soaked in seawater, it's still considered a jiao? Don't shiver, go down," Xiaoxian said angrily, and kicked the white jiao down.

The sea wind roared, and the silver-white figure of Xiaobai Jiao disappeared in a flash.

Xiaoxian waited for a few minutes, but there was still no response from Xiaobai Jiao.

"This Xiaobai's skin is itchy again, I still have to go down," Xiaoxian was dissatisfied, released the Consonance Scissors, and flew down, under the blue sea and blue sky, his figure was a little lighter than that of a seabird.

Lingxijian broke through the sea surface, and Xiaoxian's body was filled with a white aura, which cut off the sea water that rushed back after being broken by Lingxijian, forming an airtight aura shield.

"The oxygen in the aura shield lasts for less than an hour, so we must go up quickly," Xiaoxian urged Lingxijian to open the way ahead, and then controlled the aura shield to go down with the body.

She didn't tell Locke that when they saw the thuja tree, what appeared in front of her eyes was: twin thujas, perennial tree species, one tree divided into two, with terrestrial and aquatic sides.

Perennial tree species is a new term for Xiaoxian. After working in Locke's research center for a while, she came into contact with a lot of information about plants that she didn't have enough access to in China.Regarding perennials, what she has learned is about perennial flowers.

The so-called perennial flowers refer to those flowers that enter a state of "hibernation" due to environmental changes in winter.For perennial flowers, after the above-ground part withers and dies, the underground roots or bulbs will accumulate nutrients to survive the winter in the soil, and the above-ground part will grow again in the next spring.

It was the first time Xiaoxian had seen this so-called cypress with two sounds of sea and land, so she boldly made the move of going back and forth.

The water depth is constantly decreasing, and the aura shield is also compressed from the initial round shape to an oval shape, and it becomes dangerous when it goes down.

Fortunately, this area is still near the bay, and the water depth is no more than [-] meters. Further down, Xiao Xian saw the little white flood dragon circling around a cluster of "coral reefs".

"Why is there a coral reef?" Xiao Xian took a few steps closer and found that the cluster of suspected "water plants" was an aquatic thuja about one meter high and half a meter high.

Xu Shichang has grown this thuja under the water for too long, and its shape is already very similar to ordinary aquatic plants.Its rhizomes penetrate the bottom of the seabed, and the exposed trunk is blue-green throughout. The needle-shaped leaves are as soft as silk hair to the touch, unlike conifers on land.

"Master, this thing is a treasure, but it's an out-and-out aquatic tree spirit." If it wasn't for diving into the water, the mouth of Xiaobai Jiao would be full of saliva.It frantically shook its head and tail beside the tree, trying to gnaw off a few leaves.

Xiao Baijiao, who had seen the dodder fern, had good eyesight, and recognized this Thuja rooted in the seabed as a treasure at a glance.

To the touch, this thuja doesn't look like a terrestrial plant at all, it feels soft and contains moisture.

"This thing should have been growing on the bottom of the sea for many years." Xiaoxian looked at it, but she didn't immediately see the age of this aquatic thuja tree. Should be able to see clearly.

Xiaoxian took out the Lingxi scissors and motioned for it to cut off a branch.

Lingxi, who has always been invincible on land, got the order to cut, and immediately aimed at the aquatic thuja, and made a neat horizontal cut.

Unexpectedly, the soft-looking aquatic thuja, after sensing a sharp attack around it, those seemingly weak needles suddenly flew up gracefully, entangled with the consonant scissors.

Lingxi scissors are not easy to bully, a beautiful carp straightened up, the scissors cut a brilliant knife halo, wherever it goes, water splashes dodge.The soft as hair thuja branches snapped off.

The broken branches and leaves floated along the water flow towards Xiaoxian and Xiaobaijiao.

"No, little master, that thing." Xiao Baijiao didn't take it seriously at first, but after a broken leaf hit him, its nails went numb. open.

"Damn it, this thing has become fine, what is that?" People are naturally not as flexible underwater as they are on land.

Xiao Xian had no choice but to slide the water flow, driving the spiritual energy shield back.

As she retreated, the broken leaves also began to retreat. As soon as she approached the aura shield, those broken leaves immediately turned into countless blades suspended in the water and hit the aura shield.

After going deep into the bottom of the sea, the aura in the aura cover on Xiao Xian's body has been consumed to a certain extent, and its strength has been greatly reduced. Although Xiao Xian is not suffocating at this time, it is not comfortable either.

The broken leaves of the aquatic thuja swarmed up like countless small fish, which made it impossible to guard against. It drove the current of the seabed to rush up. With the aura shield protecting the body, Xiaoxian was not afraid of suffocation at the bottom of the water for a while.

More and more broken leaves hit the aura shield. Their strength was not strong, but there were enough of them. The aura shield was undergoing slight changes, and waves suddenly rose from the calm sea.

"Xiaobai, be careful," Xiao Xian noticed that the situation on Xiaobai Jiao's side had also become critical. Many scales on Jiaolong's extremely sturdy body had been beaten off, and blue-purple blood oozes out.

Apparently both she and Bai Jiao underestimated the power of those broken leaves. The frightening thing is that under the action of the water flow, the power of those broken leaves is constantly changing, becoming more stable and stronger.

"Huh", when Broken Leaf was destroying the aura shield, the sugarcane seedlings in the space were breaking through.After the aura shield was broken, the oxygen she relied on for breathing immediately dissipated, and the suffocation became more and more intense.

There was no expected suffocation, Xiao Xian only felt that the pores all over her body suddenly exploded, and a fresh fragrance like pine and cypress penetrated into her body.

The broken leaf disappeared, and several auras gushed out from it.

The aquatic thuja trembled violently, continuous streams of tree spirit air, several blue airs, came towards Xiao Xian, first circling around Xiao Xian, and swarming like a school of fish that had found their nest Drill towards the deepest part of Xiaoxian's nose.

In the space, the flower buds of the "sugar cane seedlings" that had not been moved for many days kept expanding, emitting colorful lights. In this strange light and color, Xiao Xian's facial expressions were also changing.

The aura on her body was stretched by the spirit of the tree spirit flying around, and Xiaoxian felt the salty sea water washing against her nostrils and facial features.

The waves on the bottom of the sea are getting bigger and bigger, but on the sea level, it has gradually returned to calm. Several fishing boats going out to sea are sounding their whistles, and their white sails are slowly unfolding on the boundless sea level.

The sudden infusion of too much aura made Xiao Xian feel weirdly struck by lightning instantly.

Losing consciousness, the whole person seems to have fallen into the clouds and mist, dazed and indescribably comfortable.
