Ice Age: I can control plant growth

Chapter 40 A Drink
"How long has it been since we had a good drink together?"

Li Mu looked at the two of them and smiled faintly.

"It's been a few months, everyone has been busy and hasn't thought about this."

Ah Sao is actually a person who loves drinking. When they lived together before, he would always take the two of them to a pub to drink every weekend.

The reason for going to the tavern was not to see girls nor for the lively atmosphere.

I simply feel that the wine mixed in the pub does taste better than the wine I buy myself.

The three of them went to the tavern and ordered two barrels of beer. They drank and boasted, and then left after they finished.

"It's only half a month until the New Year. Let's have a good drink together on that night!"

Li Mu was not a drinker before, and he didn't even smoke.

But as I grow older, there are too many frustrations and depressions that I have no way to vent and no one to talk to.

Later I discovered that lighting a cigarette and drinking a few glasses of alcohol could actually help relieve a lot of the depression in my heart!
Looking at the two good brothers of many years in front of him, Li Mu thought secretly that maybe it was time to find them a wife!
If I had someone to accompany me and a family, things would probably be much better than they are now.

……

Beside the bed, there were four pots of Polygonum multiflorum, one large and three small, shining brightly in the green light, and the branches and leaves were gently dancing with Li Mu's breathing.

Li Mu gently opened his eyes. Since entering the fifth level, his strength has not increased as fast as before.

It seems that He Shouwu's breathing method is no longer enough. This time, going out to hunt mutant beasts is a good opportunity to find more source plants.

It's time to continue improving your breathing method!

After a simple wash, Li Mu came to the first floor. Asao and Chengcheng were already eating breakfast at the dining table.

"We may not come back until the 31st this time. Wanling City will be handed over to you."

Li Mu said while drinking porridge.

"Don't worry, leave it to me."

"But if there is something urgent, how should I inform you?"

Cheng Cheng was still a little worried. It would be difficult to contact people without a mobile phone.

"Don't worry, I have prepared an emergency contact method."

Li Mu stretched out his hands, and a thumb-sized gray-brown seed grew rapidly in his palms.

In the blink of an eye, a tender green plant appeared in front of them.

The root is like garlic, but the head has a butterfly-like flower, which is white with pink and the size of a palm.

"This is a new plant I transformed from hyacinth and phalaenopsis, and I gave it a name."

"Homecoming!"

"It can sense my source energy and find me by following my energy trajectory."

“If something urgent happens, I just need to pinch off the butterfly-shaped flower on it and it will automatically come to me.

A thousand miles away, in one day!"

After finishing speaking, Li Mu handed the “Return Home” in his hand to Cheng Cheng.

"I will protect it."

Cheng Cheng took the return trip and promised solemnly.

Li Mu waved his hand and smiled gently.

"Ah Sao, it's time to go!"

The towering war tree stands at the gate of Wanling City, just like the guardian gate god of the past.

After several months of growth, the war tree had grown several meters taller and became thicker. It now looked almost as tall as the hemlock tree.

A team of more than a dozen people were standing under the giant war tree, ready to go. This time Li Mu brought most of the hunting team with him. With his protection, they could be trained.

Apart from the necessary fire and weapons, everyone did not bring any food or tents.

With Li Mu around, all this is just a matter of waving his hand.

"Are you all ready?"

Li Mu stood on the branch of the giant tree of war and said while looking at the team below.

"Everything is ready!"

Uniform voices came from below, and a solemn smell began to float in the wind.

"set off!"

The gate of Wanling City is in the east, and Li Mu’s goal is to first eliminate all the mutant beasts within a radius of twenty miles.

Then choose a general direction to sweep based on the results of the exploration.

As the order was conveyed, the hunting team, led by Asao, headed eastward.

Before setting off, Li Mu had already discussed with Asao that he would not stay in the team all the time, but would stay in the dark.

He would only take action when the team was in irresistible danger. Otherwise, how could he gain experience like a babysitter?

But he would provide the hunting team with enough food or other resources every three days, and the rest was up to them.

Li Mu's usual role is a mobile warehouse. In his opinion, experience is fighting, and there is no need to waste time on trivial matters such as looking for food.

What's more, time is running out, and only more battles can stimulate their potential and accelerate the improvement of their strength.

After the team walked away, Li Mu took out a few seeds from his pocket and blew them gently.

The seeds sprouted and grew quickly, and soon, eight huge clovers appeared in front of Li Mu, floating gently.

He waved his right hand again, and thick vines appeared out of thin air. Soon they intertwined and combined into a two-meter-wide and three-meter-long green sedan.

Then eight clovers fell around the top of the sedan chair and began to take root and entwine around it, carrying the sedan chair suspended in the air.

Li Mu stretched out his legs and sat in it. With a slight movement of his mind, the sedan chair rose higher and higher, until it was more than 200 meters above the ground, and then it began to fly in the direction the team had left!

This time the purpose was to train the members of the hunting team, not Li Mu himself, so he naturally would not walk slowly on the ground like them.

As for Asao, he is also a member of the hunting team.

What's more, if you stay on the ground all the time and have no broad vision, how can you observe the surrounding situation?
Li Mu in the sedan waved his hands again, and the vines grew into a wooden table again. Several fruit plates appeared on it, filled with fresh fruits.

Li Mu picked up an apple and began to chew it gently. After being busy for so long, he had to enjoy it.

Watching Wanling City gradually disappearing into the distance, Li Mu remembered the agreement he made with Cheng Cheng that he would not return until he was drunk, and suddenly he recalled a poem.

"Green ants brewing new wine, red clay stove.

It's going to snow tonight, can you have a drink with me?"

Sometimes separation is for a better reunion, and it won’t be long before they will be drinking together again.

While Li Mu was sighing, the hunting team ahead encountered the first mutant beast and the battle was about to begin.

This is a third-level mutant beast similar to a snow leopard, with snow-white fur and some spots on its body.

However, its size is much larger than that of an ordinary snow leopard and looks almost the same as an elephant.

Looking at the open paw and the sharp claws, Asao had no doubt that this guy could tear an ordinary person in half with just one grab!

"Zhang Tiankuo, you are responsible for holding it back. I will take the lead in the attack. The rest of you can act according to circumstances."

Zhang Tiankuo nodded slightly upon hearing this. In the blink of an eye, several blood vines as thick as thumbs stretched out from his body. He was ready for battle!

I hope everyone can have a good time with friends and family during this holiday.
