Da Si Nong: I really don’t want to farm

Chapter 497: Causing Poultry, Livestock, Vegetables, and Fruits to Mutate?
Someone really did try to take advantage of Big Yellow.

The first wave was arrested as soon as they entered Taoyuan Village.

Those idiots actually entered Taoyuan Village fully armed. If we don't arrest you, who will we arrest?
This was a group of mercenaries with little organizational foundation; in the mercenary world, they would be considered a bunch of independent cultivators.

There are some plans for the second wave.

They were all disguised as tourists, and although they were still discovered, they were not arrested immediately.

After all, they didn't make a move.

Catch the thief red-handed.

However, they can be arrested immediately if they make any unusual moves.

During the day, they scouted the location.

That night, they took action.

"What are you looking at?"

Zhang Ruoxi saw Xu Yue standing on the balcony, gazing into the distance.

"Several people went to Uncle San's house."

Xu Yue spoke.

"Trying to take advantage of Big Yellow?" Zhang Ruoxi said. "Are these people stupid? If they did any investigation, they wouldn't dare to make a move."

“Wealth can corrupt people’s hearts,” Xu Yue said. “Those in the cultivation world who wield firearms may not necessarily think they are that powerful. With a gun in hand, one can rule the world.”

Have mercenaries ever come into contact with people from the cultivation world?
They must have had contact with them.

However, the cultivators they encountered likely met their demise under their guns.

They may have investigated the matter of cultivators in Peach Blossom Village, but probably didn't pay much attention to it.

Perhaps they didn't even check.

"Both the Special Administration and the military have people in the village; they're really bold."

Zhang Ruoxi shook her head. What could she do if others wanted to die? As for Da Huang and Xu Jianghe's family, she was naturally not worried at all.

Let alone Xu Jianghe's fourth realm and Wang Yun's third realm, those people probably wouldn't even be able to get past Da Huang.

“They were there as security personnel,” Xu Yue said. “We know that, but how could outsiders possibly know that? Besides, they didn’t carry guns when they patrolled the village.”

Are there guns in the village?
There are some in the camp, of course; Xu Yue had been there before.

I'm not very interested anymore.

Even if he didn't have any protective magic items, a pistol or something similar couldn't penetrate his skin.

After reaching the Divine Fusion Realm, the physical body continuously becomes stronger.

"You are interested in?"

Zhang Ruoxi asked.

They are not far from Xu Jianghe's villa, so they can indeed see it.

However, Zhang Ruoxi felt that Xu Yue was not seeing with his eyes, but with his divine sense.

“I want to see just how good Dahuang is,” Xu Yue said. “That guy has been at the camp for a while and seems to have learned a lot.”

Dahuang was comparable to a cultivator, something Xu Yue had already sensed before.

Whether it's strength, speed, or resistance to impact, Da Huang has undergone a qualitative change.

It felt like I had broken free from the shackles of my bloodline.

And it wasn't just a breakthrough once.

It's estimated that the three pandas, Xiao Hei, Xiao Hua, and Da Bao, have all broken through a layer of bloodline shackles.

Whether one mutation is equivalent to becoming a cultivator, Xu Yue did not know.

However, it must have been a long time ago that Da Huang broke through.

It's estimated that he returned not long ago.

As for how many times it has broken through, Xu Yue really doesn't know.

At least twice, maybe three times.

However, I think Big Yellow can easily deal with those mercenaries.

"what happened?"

Seeing Xu Yue's expression and looking towards Xu Jianghe's villa, Zhang Ruoxi couldn't help but ask.

"That's terrible!" Xu Yue said. "Dahuang was too ruthless."

"Bite someone to death?"

Zhang Ruoxi frowned and asked.

In Zhang Ruoxi's view, the fact that a yellow dog bit someone to death was not a big deal.

But she was worried about provoking Dahuang's ferocity.

After all, Xu Yue's younger cousin and his two children all loved playing with Da Huang.

“No, not at all.” Xu Yue shook his head and said, “Those guys were holding tranquilizer guns, but they couldn’t hit Da Huang. Instead, Da Huang got close and bit their genitals.”

Zhang Ruoxi's lips twitched, then she turned and went back to her room.

I was curious and wanted to see it a moment ago, but now I don't want to at all.

Xu Yue then turned around and went back to his room.

Xu Jianghe will handle this.

He didn't make a move, nor was there any need for him to.

He had already sensed them approaching.

Xu Jianghe had already received the news when those people left.

Those people thought they had hidden themselves well, but little did they know that they had already been spotted as soon as they entered Peach Blossom Village.

After the second wave of losses, there was a period of time during which no one came back.

The school's new laboratory has been completed.

Xu Yue had already set up the relevant formations; they only needed the octopus to arrive to be activated.

"Are there really mutated octopuses?"

When Ma Bohan asked Xu Yue, he seemed eager and impatient to try.

"It's already on its way, and should arrive in a few days," Xu Yue said, looking at Ma Bohan. "Are you in charge of this research?"

"I'll participate."

Ma Bohan shook his head.

He has a PhD in life sciences and has gained some insights after years of research at the university.

At least some health supplements are genuinely effective.

However, the actual breakthroughs have been very limited.

Xu Yue was not surprised by his involvement.

"The person in charge of this research is Lei De, one of the top genetic scientists in China," Ma Bohan said. "I don't know why, but I have a feeling that the breakthrough in my research lies in this mutated octopus."

Xu Yue seemed to be thinking about something.

He knows absolutely nothing about life sciences or genetics.

But Ma Bohan's "faint feeling" gave him a different idea.

Don't underestimate the feelings of researchers.

Many times, a major breakthrough is achieved simply because of a feeling.

Always remember, there will be reverberations.

Sincerity can lead to foresight.

Ma Bohan is truly dedicated to his research, and that intuition he has is sometimes remarkably accurate.

Life sciences and genetics are inherently linked.

Dr. Ma is a life science expert, so he must have done research on genes and the like.

“That octopus is very powerful, comparable to a fifth-realm cultivator,” Xu Yue said. “In the words of novels, it might be like breaking through five bloodline shackles, gene shackles, or something else.”

Big Yellow has probably broken through three times, but it's still quite a distance from that giant octopus.

Xiao Hei and Xiao Hua should have only broken through one or two levels.

This is something Xu Yue really needs to study.

He's in the animal husbandry business; hopefully, he won't raise any mutant beasts. Poultry and livestock—that's probably impossible.

After all, they are raised in batches.

But what about aquaculture?

There are always some who slip through the net.

As for dairy cows and such, that shouldn't be a problem.

If mutated beasts are successfully raised, the quality of the milk should be even better.

"Where's Rhubarb?"

Ma Bohan's words immediately brought Xu Yue back to reality.

"You guys are after Big Yellow too?" Xu Yue said. "Two groups of mercenaries tried to take it before. The first group went into the village fully armed and got captured. The other group disguised themselves as tourists and went to capture Big Yellow at night with tranquilizer guns, but they all got bitten in the groin. It was like being bitten to death!"

Upon hearing this, Ma Bohan glanced at Xu Yue's ambiguous smile and the direction his gaze was directed, and immediately felt a chill run down his spine.

Is that big rhubarb really that ruthless?

Ma Bohan had seen Dahuang before, and it had never been aggressive towards some overly aggressive tourists, but he never expected it to be so vicious.

They are not to be trifled with, nor can they afford to be.

A few days later, Yan Tian and Zhang Zhixuan escorted the octopus to the school.

The journey was not smooth sailing.

As for what they went through, they didn't say, and Xu Yue naturally didn't ask.

He could sense the traces of battle on those people.

Especially those armed soldiers, who smelled of smoke, must have handled guns.

It was estimated that they would be attacked by mercenaries on the way.

They're a bunch of people who value money more than their lives.

The octopus arrived, Xu Yue activated the formation, and Red also arrived with his team.

Yan Tian and Zhang Zhixuan went to Xu Yue's house for tea.

"You guys were still attacked despite having such a force?" Xu Yue said with a sigh. "Are those foreign mercenaries crazy?"

"Do you know how much the bounty is on a mutated beast?" Yan Tian said. "Ten billion US dollars, while that octopus is worth five billion. Those mercenaries abroad are lawless people. They know it's like moths to a flame, but they still take the risk. You should also be careful. Your dog, Dahuang, is quite famous online, so it will definitely attract attention."

“Two waves have already come,” Xu Yue said, shaking his head. “The West wants to use the power of technology.”

“Cultivation is a process of evolution,” Zhang Zhixuan said. “Using the power of science to promote human evolution may not be impossible; the only question is whether current technology can achieve it.”

“Humans can evolve through cultivation or other means, so perhaps plants and animals can too,” Yan Tian said. “If octopuses can do this, then your dog Dahuang probably can too, so there must be other animals in this world that have already evolved.”

In his view, animals are naturally more dangerous than plants.

"You're not trying to trick me into going into the restricted area again, are you?" Xu Yue shook his head and said, "I have other things to do lately. Do you think some mutated beasts might be spawning in Taoyuan Village?"

"possible!"

Yan Tian frowned, but nodded and said.

Zhang Zhixuan nodded as well.

Xu Yue's dog and panda were already different.

They have mutated most of the time.

It's just not as powerful as an octopus.

Or rather, it didn't mutate as many times as the octopus.

"Then tell me, would eating mutated poultry, livestock, or even vegetables and fruits be more beneficial for cultivation?" Xu Yue said. "Right now, the vegetables, fruits, poultry, and livestock on the farm only contain spiritual energy; they haven't mutated yet."

"You want to cultivate exotic beasts, vegetables, and fruits?" Yan Tian asked, somewhat surprised. "Weren't you researching seeds before?"

“Same here!” Xu Yue said. “Director Yan, I’m a researcher, not a combatant. You can’t keep sending me into battle.”

Yan Tian's lips twitched upon hearing this.

When did I ask you to go and fight?
You went off to fight and kill, didn't you?
Who in the global cultivation world doesn't know that you, Xu Yue, are a ruthless killer?
You've already claimed to be the world's number one expert, and you're telling me you're a researcher, you want to do research, and you don't want to go...
Huh?
Yan Tian seemed to have found the key point.

“Those restricted areas are also worth studying,” Yan Tian said with a smile. “The sooner we discover them, the sooner we can resolve them. If they suddenly erupt, we will be in a very passive position.”

In their view, the restricted area definitely posed a potential danger.

"Let's wait," Xu Yue said. "You can monitor those places first, and go there only if you find anything unusual. Going there now might not yield any results."

Yan Tian nodded and stopped insisting.

There are definitely differences before and after the recovery.

Just like the Yin Sha Land where Li Liang almost died before, it was just an ordinary valley before it was revived.

“Exotic vegetables and fruits are manageable,” Yan Tian said, “but what about mutated poultry and livestock? Won’t that cause any harm? Ordinary people can’t control them.”

"So we need to think about it and do some research," Xu Yue said. "Actually, those poultry and livestock are still within a controllable range, but I'm worried about aquaculture."

"A fish that slipped through the net?"

Yan Tian seemed to understand immediately.

If poultry and livestock are right under our noses and we really can't control them, then we'll just kill them and eat them.

However, aquaculture is different; it's simply impossible to catch them all at once.

If it's missed, then it becomes uncontrollable.

“That is indeed a problem,” Yan Tian said. “I remember a large python was spotted near Gaogang Reservoir. Fish may have mutated and be unable to leave the water, but we are afraid of other things. We should probably pay more attention to the reservoirs on the farm.”

"There shouldn't be any problems in the short term," Xu Yue said. "Taoyuan Village should be a bellwether."

If the people in Peach Blossom Village haven't mutated yet, then it's naturally impossible for other places to do so.

"Wang Haolin's group specializes in reservoir fishing grounds, agritainment, and folk customs, right?" Yan Tian continued. "I think we should remind them. Especially Chilongtan Reservoir, which is even before Gaogang Village Reservoir."

Xu Yue nodded.

Not only before Gaogang Village, but more importantly, Wang Haolin and his gang also bought a lot of big fish.

Large fish are much more likely to mutate than small fish.

Some may have already reached their limit, and under the nourishment of spiritual energy, they may have already undergone mutations.

and many more?

Was Yan Tian referring to "that group of people"?
This form of address seems a bit inappropriate; no wonder it sounds awkward.

"Let's go back to Jincheng and take a look," Xu Yue said. "The possibility of that reservoir is quite high."

Yan Tian didn't say anything more.

He believed Xu Yue could handle the problem.

If Xu Yue can't handle it, then they're even less capable.

They're professionals, after all.

Ancient farmers may indeed have been able to raise exotic animals and cultivate exotic vegetables and fruits.

What does "unexplained expectation" mean?

After having tea at Xu Yue's house, Yan Tian and Zhang Zhixuan did not leave immediately, but instead ate a meal before departing.

The food at Xu Yue's house is indeed the best.

It is the most spiritual.

How could Yan Tian and the other two not know about this?

Since we're already here, we should definitely give it a try.

"Are you going to Chilongtan Reservoir?" Zhang Ruoxi said. "Why don't you go find Wang Haolin and the others first? I heard they're doing a great job."

Who did you hear that from?

That's probably Mu Xiaoyan.

They chatted from time to time.

"Let's talk at Chilong Reservoir first, and then we'll go check on them." Xu Yue looked at Zhang Ruoxi and said, "Shall we come together?"

"Never mind, I'll just stay home and spend time with the kids."

Zhang Ruoxi thought for a moment, then shook her head.

These days, her two children aren't as attached to her as they used to be.

“The fish in the reservoir shouldn’t mutate that easily,” Zhang Ruoxi said. “You don’t need to worry so much.”

“I’m not afraid of them mutating,” Xu Yue said, shaking his head. “I want them to mutate. If there are indeed fish mutating in the Chilongtan Reservoir, we can study them.”
