Chapter 45 Kneeling


Chapter 45 Kneeling

Liu Wangxue followed Xu Qingsong's instructions and touched along the lotus stem. A cool, gel-like touch was immediately conveyed through the rubber gloves.

But she touched it for a long time and started over with a few more lotus stems. They were either mud or lotus stems that had not rotted.

This is also the case with Du Yunkai.

Turn around and look at the others. The novices are all the same and have gained nothing. The three veterans have achieved results one after another.

Liu Wangxue asked: "Are you just looking for them one by one? Is there any trick to selecting lotus stems?"

After hearing this, several people straightened up and looked at the connected lotus stems in front of them. green.

Wenxi said: "Don't they all look the same? They are all the top leaves on the same pole."

Du Yunkai asked: "Can they be distinguished by their height, shortness, fatness and thinness?"

Wenxi doesn’t think so: “I think it’s just luck, right? This is both water and mud, just like opening a blind box.”

Li Yu was physically weak and already tired after a while. He put his hands on his hips and took a deep breath: "It's okay to open the blind box. After all, you are sure to be able to open something, but if you touch it with this hand, you can't even touch a lotus root joint."

Over there, Yue Cheng joked: "Brother-in-law, are you hiding something secret? Hurry up and hand over the secret!"

Liu Wangxue asked Xu Qingsong: "So there is really a secret?"

Xu Qingsong spread his hands and said with a smile: "I have always been very lucky, I don't need a secret."

Wenxi picked a lotus leaf and put it on his head as a hat: "Look, I said it was luck."

Tao Huayu plucked the few lotus pods in front and placed them on the foam floating board, and said, "There is indeed a secret, brother-in-law, please explain it to me."

So everyone gathered around the brother-in-law, who broke it off Several lotus stems pointed at the lotus leaf in the middle that had just emerged from the water - the kind where "little lotus leaves only show their sharp corners", and said: "There must be such a lotus leaf underneath, and the direction of the growth of the lotus joints is in line with the direction of the leaves. The direction is opposite."

As he said this, he bent down, touched it a few times, and dug out one.

The method is really simple. Everyone spreads out to find it. After a while, the scores of all the novices changed from 0 to 1.

Tao Huayu dug out another one and said: "It's boring to dig like this. How about we have a competition? It just so happens that there are three teams now."

Yue Cheng followed up and shouted: "There must be a prize in the competition!"

"Okay, I will pay the prize." Du Yunkai became interested. He had already learned from Xu Qingsong that these people were from "The Great Zhao II" Players of "The Eleventh Case" said, "Qingsong and I want to make a PC game next. If you win, I will give it to the closed beta."

"Great!" Everyone cheered together.

Li Yu interrupted: "But Brother Qingsong and Boss Du are originally from the same company. If they win, won't there be only one place for the internal beta?"

" Yes, yes, this won't work!" Everyone clamored for personnel adjustments, and finally Xu Qingsong and Tao Huayu changed.

The rules of the competition are simple and crude, that is, weighing, and whichever team digs out the heaviest lotus roots at the end wins.

In addition, the "Lotus Root King" will be selected. Lan Xiaoxi suggested: "I heard that the Fish King is selected every year during fishing in the Northeast. Let's make one too."

" Where is the lottery?" Wenxi asked.

Liu Wangxue said: "How about sticking it with a small porcelain sticker?"

"This is good!" Everyone agreed.

Because except for Liu Wangxue, Xiaoci attacks everyone with cat fists indiscriminately, and even Wenxi is not touched. Li Yu was immediately full of energy. He wanted to hug Xiaoci the most. When he thought of being able to play with the cat, he still had to do it no matter how weak his physical ability was.

However, this kind of bending down work is indeed quite tiring. Although the waterproof clothing is in the style of overalls, it is not breathable. In addition, it was really not easy to walk in the mud. After a while, everyone was sweating profusely.

Although the early morning sun is not that scorching, it does make your face hot when it shines on it. Everyone imitated Wenxi and picked a lotus leaf and put it on their heads.

Pangpeng on the shore was originally lying on his stomach, and Xiaoci slept on its back as motionless as a blanket. Suddenly Pengpeng stood up, shaking Xiaoci awake.

It stretched out its front paws to reach the lotus leaves in the field, but the distance was a bit far and it couldn't reach them, so it barked "woof" in the direction of Liu Wangxue.

The sister on the side didn’t know what happened to the dog. She was afraid that it would run into the lotus field with the cat, so she called Liu Wangxue.

Liu Wangxue looked back, smiled and said, "Sister, just pick a lotus leaf for it and put it on its head."

Sister looked at the bumping head. , picked a piece of about the same size and put it on, Pengpeng immediately became quiet, took a few steps with his legs, and then lay down again.

When Xiao Ci saw that there was an extra hat on her head, she stretched out her paws to scratch it, then looked at her sister and said "meow".

My sister, who had never raised a small animal, suddenly felt blessed. She picked a smaller one and put it on Xiaoci. Xiaoci let out a "meow" and continued to sleep on Pengpeng's back.

She thought it was so strange. She looked at it again and again, was it really a cat and a dog? I took out my phone and took a few photos.

The competition in the lotus field was still going on. My brother-in-law's team was the first to fill up the floating boards. Yue Cheng pushed them to the shore, and his sister helped put them into the plastic basket. This floating board was put in and it was half filled in an instant.

When he walked back with the floating board, he said as if to start a fight: "It seems that our team has a great chance of winning!"

Tao Huayu immediately expressed his dissatisfaction: "You Wait!" He said and put on another one. The floating board was almost reaching its limit and he pushed it towards the shore.

Xu Qingsong also pushed his team's floating board to follow.

Du Yunkai straightened up and punched his lower back, which was always bent like this. Even someone who works out on a daily basis would find it difficult for him: "No wonder farmers are said to be hard-working. After experiencing this, it is indeed very hard."

Liu Wangxue and Wenxi also turned around and moved around. Li Yu was the only one who kept searching and touching.

Wenxi said: "Xiaoyu, take a rest, be careful of hurting your waist."

Li Yu raised his head, his tender face flushed with heat: "I want to take it." Lotus King'."

"You can't be too tired then." Liu Wangxue also advised him to rest for a while.

My brother-in-law smiled when he heard this. He has a simple and honest appearance, and his skin is tanned by the sun and wind from working in the fields: "You are tired, right? You can do this."

He knelt down as he spoke In the lotus field: "This way you won't be tired to the waist, and the heat in the waterproof suit can be squeezed out, which is very cool."

"Hey, this is a good method." Yue Cheng followed suit .

My brother-in-law supported him from the back and said, "Kneel down, don't sit, and keep your upper body upright, otherwise water will get into your clothes."

"Oh, okay." Yue Cheng adjusted his posture and looked at the other people, "It's true, it saves effort and is cool. Try it."

Then, everyone came one after another. Kneel down in the lotus field.

I don’t know who suddenly laughed. You infect me and I infect you. The laughter floats above the lotus field and is blown by the wind among the lotus leaves.
