Chapter 333 Magical, cold
Mother Xiao is not blind, so how could she not see it?
It's just inexplicable why mushrooms grow on this sycamore tree?
Obviously it hadn't grown out in so many years before.
Could it be that Xiao's mother turned to look at Xiao Xiao doubtfully and guessed: "Xiao Xiao, did you grow the mushrooms?"
Xiao Xiao was stunned, hesitating for a second between admitting and denying, and then shook his head at Xiao's mother, "No, I don't know how to grow mushrooms."
He had no experience in growing shiitake mushrooms, so it was better not to get involved.
If Xiao's mother asked him about mushroom cultivation later, wouldn't he reveal his secret immediately?
"I just discovered that there is a shiitake mushroom growing here."
"That's it."
Xiao's mother knelt down and took a closer look at the mushroom. She was only a stone's throw away from the mushroom man.
The fungus was obviously frightened, but he didn't dare to make any big moves.
Instead, he moved back carefully and slowly.
From time to time, she looked up at Xiao's mother, looking as if she was facing a formidable enemy. It seemed that as soon as she found the slightest sign of something wrong, she would run away.
Xiao Xiao looked a little speechless and amused.
……
"Did this sycamore tree really grow by itself?"
"It's amazing."
Mother Xiao's eyes were filled with surprise and excitement.
"However, it looks a bit dry?"
"Is it because it hasn't rained recently?"
Under the horrified gaze of the mushroom man, Mother Xiao stretched out her fingers and touched the edge of the mushroom.
"It's quite big."
This mushroom is much larger than what Xiao’s mother has seen before, and its growth is very gratifying.
Don’t know how it tastes?
The fungus trembled under Xiao's mother's gaze on the food, and looked at Xiao Xiao with a look of help.
Xiao Xiao pursed his lips to suppress the laughter rising in his throat, coughed a few times, and then slowly said, "Mom, just keep this mushroom and don't pick it, right?"
"Because it's just one. If other mushrooms grow later, we can pick them later."
"Same."
Since Xiao Xiao said this, Xiao's mother would not refute her son's intention, and said, "It took a hundred years for this sycamore tree to grow a mushroom. It must be kept."
"Who knows if it will grow back later?"
"This is a good sign."
Xiao's mother is not superstitious, but the appearance of this mushroom is indeed magical.
It is also grown on a century-old sycamore tree, so it feels a bit unusual no matter how you think about it.
She didn't expect it and wanted to eat it just now. Now that Xiao Xiao's mother thought about it, she would not touch it even if Xiao Xiao didn't ask her.
This is a good sign to take good care of.
Xiao's mother's eyes were bright and she said, "I want to give it some water."
With that said, Xiao's mother got up and went to get water.
……
Although the development of things was a bit unexpected, the results were not much different.
As long as this mushroom can stay on the tree safely, it will be fine.
"Mom." Seeing Xiao's mother turning her head and looking like she couldn't wait to get water, Xiao Xiao felt helpless, but he didn't feel offended anymore.
"Mom, then I'm going back to school."
"Well, be careful on the road."
Xiao's mother waved her hand, turned around quickly and entered the house.
Xiao Xiao:......
"Ha~"
Xiao Xiao still couldn't help laughing. He squatted down and said to the fungus: "Now you can live here with peace of mind."
"My mother has already regarded you as a good omen."
"I will never pick your mushrooms again."
"Gugu~"
The mushroom man stood on the cap of the mushroom, bowed down solemnly to Xiao Xiao, and did not get up for a long time.
There was a bit of shrillness in the childish voice, which trembled slightly.
It really appreciates the human being in front of it. Saved it and found a new habitat for it.
……
Xiao Xiao accepted the bacteria's bow and raised the corners of his mouth lightly, outlining a shallow but warm smile.
He stretched out a finger and gently touched the bacterium's forehead, raising its head.
"Okay, you can live here peacefully now."
"If you have any problem, you can ask me or Yingshao."
"I'm leaving."
"Goodbye."
"Gugu~"
……
Until Xiao Xiao's back disappeared behind the half-closed door, the fungus man was still standing on tiptoes staring at the direction Xiao Xiao left, his small hands still waving and swinging tirelessly.
It wasn't until Xiao's mother brought the watering can and sprinkled water on the mushrooms that she interrupted its movements and called its attention back.
The fungus who suddenly became a "soaked rat" was not annoyed at all. Instead, he looked up happily to receive the cool and moist water.
Well, it's very comfortable.
Inexplicably, the fungus seems to be less afraid of Xiao's mother than before.
Sure enough, Master Xiao Xiao's mother is also a good person.
The fungus is indeed thirsty.
This water really solved its urgent need.
Fungus people like to drink water.
…….
The fungus man was in a good mood, and even the mushrooms under his feet seemed a little moister.
This made Xiao's mother wonder, and she became more and more interested in taking care of this mushroom.
……
Xiao Xiao and his party returned to school, just in time to catch up with the afternoon class.
It is almost the end of November, and the weather in Yanjing is getting colder day by day.
The cold wind was biting, making a rustling sound on the window glass.
The sky is boundless, with large expanses of grey-blue spread out wantonly. The branches stretching into the sky are bare, but strong and simple, without a trace of twilight.
A particularly lofty and cold scene appeared in front of Xiao Xiao through the window.
Clean and clear lines, without a trace of sloppiness or hesitation, outline the unique charm of late autumn and early winter.
……
Xiao Xiao rested his jaw with one hand and looked out the window sideways.
He was quite pleased with the dramatic scenery at this time.
……
After class, the cold wind that hit me when I walked out of the teaching building made me shiver all over.
The students who grimaced and grinned could not help but miss the previous "embarrassment".
Although it was crowded and extremely crowded, at least it was warm.
……
"Ha~"
Zhuge Yun took a breath of air, "I'm freezing to death."
"Hmm."
Zhao Luzheng, who was wrapped tightly in a scarf, made a vague response.
"Leave quickly."
Zhang Bo took the lead and strode forward.
Today, Zhang Bo can't bear it anymore.
The slightest bit of cold wind penetrated into the cracks of people's bones along the tiny gaps and spread wantonly, making people's limbs feel stiff as if they were bound by a thin layer of ice.
"Yeah."
Zhuge Yun and Zhao Luzheng followed Zhang Bo and walked quickly to the cafeteria.
Xiao Xiao leisurely followed a few people, his steps seemed to be unpleasant, even a bit slow and procrastinating, but he stayed close behind Zhang Bo and the others.
The distance between them has not shortened at all.
The surrounding students were in a hurry, and the biting cold wind made them half-close their eyes. They had no extra energy to pay attention to such an indifferent person, let alone notice some unusual behavior on the other side. .
