Chapter 21 Catch the Tail of Spring(1/2)

After Lin Xing resigned from the factory, he went home to have a casual lunch and had a good sleep.

The house he lives in is located at the foot of the mountain. There are some old houses near the house. The neighbors of those houses have built new houses one after another a few years ago. They are close to the roadside, so life will be more convenient.

Only Lin Xing and his family are poor and still live at the foot of the mountain.

However, there is also a benefit, that is, the home is very quiet.

Lin Xing slept for three hours straight. When he woke up, he stretched out and felt very comfortable.

“It’s so nice not to have to work!

You can sleep whenever you want."

When he calmed down, he thought about his powerful skills.

"The spiritual water is so awesome, it transformed my body to the point where I can run nine floors without losing breath.

The speed has improved, the eyesight has improved, and it is no problem for one person to challenge three or four people alone.

I wonder if the spiritual water can transform me even more powerfully?

It would be even more fun if you could become more powerful all the time and defeat ten or even a hundred.

Fight against invincible opponents all over the world, and seek defeat alone!

Let me see who dares to bully me!"

Lin Xingguang's blood boiled just thinking about that possibility.

With this idea in mind, he entered the magic needle space.

After entering the space, the first thing he saw was the things he had packed in the dormitory, piled there scatteredly.

He had no idea of ​​packing his luggage yet, so he took a cup and a chair from his luggage and went straight to the puddle.

After almost a day, the water level in the puddle has risen and is almost level with the ground.

Lin Xing took a sip of water from the cup and drank it all without hesitation.

This time, he tasted the water carefully. It felt sweet and clear, and the taste was better than any water he had ever drunk.

"As expected of spiritual water."

After taking the water, Lin Xing sat on a chair, closed his eyes, and quietly felt the changes in his body.

After waiting for a short while, he opened his eyes without any obvious feeling.

Observing the surface of the skin, there was no black dirt discharged like before.

Lin Xing was a little disappointed. He thought that every time he drank the spiritual water, his body would change, but it turned out that it was only the first time that was most effective.

"Just drink the spiritual water as drinking water. Drink a little spiritual water every day. It should be subliminally effective."

The water content in the human body reaches 50% to 80%, and the effect of water on people is much higher than others.

This is why rich people spend a lot of money to buy the best water. It is said that the most expensive water in the world costs 300,000 to 400,000 yuan for 800 ml.

"If my water could be mass-produced, it would probably knock the world's most expensive water out of the top spot."

Spiritual water can make people reborn and strong, and it can also speed up the growth of plants and make fruits delicious.

Lin Xing is reluctant to sell this precious water.

After knowing that there was no change in his body, Lin Xing did not get into trouble and returned home with one thought.

"With the help of spiritual water, it doesn't mean that you don't have to work. You have to start planning for the future of agriculture."

He put on long, breathable clothes and trousers, footwear, and found some equipment at home.

Wearing a worn-out straw hat, carrying an antique-level sprayer, preparing a sickle and a long stick, and carrying the two large canvas bags made by the magic needle last time.

After getting all the equipment, he started going up the mountain.

At four or five o'clock in the afternoon, the weather became cooler. When going up the mountain, Lin Xing felt comfortable in the cool breeze.

Lin Xing's nose was full of the stuffy smell of earth, with a slight chill.

"Catch the tail of spring, and the hot summer is on its way."

Lin Xing went to see the guava tree this time.

Last night, he picked half of the guava from each tree to sell. Some of the guavas left on the trees were not yet ripe, and some were almost ripe.

Other guava trees that have not been watered with spiritual water, from tree to fruit, are far inferior to those that have been watered with spiritual water.

"Let's do an experiment."

Lin Xing entered the magic needle space with a manual sprayer on his back, poured some spiritual water into the puddle and poured it into the sprayer.

After coming out, he installed a spray head with a relatively fine water output, picked up a long pole, and prepared to ripen the fruits in a targeted manner.

"The experiment on honeysuckle was successful, so guava should be fine too."

The advantage of having a long pole is that it can spray onto fruits on higher branches.

"Zizzizi..."

Several nearly ripe guavas were irrigated with spiritual water and covered with a thin layer of water mist, which was immediately absorbed by the fruits.

Lin Xing stopped and saw changes visible to the naked eye in those guavas.

From the immature green skin state to the mature green and yellow skin state in an instant.

“It can be ripened in a targeted manner!”

Lin Xing was so excited that he found a few more marble-sized guavas to spray the spiritual water on. This time he sprayed more water than before.

The marble-sized fruit suddenly turned into a fist-sized ripe guava.

"success!"

After going back and forth, Lin Xing probably mastered the amount of spiritual water sprayed.

He did not continue to spray the spiritual water, but wrapped the sickle and the stick with wire, and then hung the cloth bag under the handle of the sickle.

Stretching the long stick upward, he easily picked off the ripe guava with a sickle and dropped it directly into the cloth bag.

After picking some ripe fruits, Lin Xing stopped.

The main reason he came today was not to pick fruits.

He passed by the guava grove to see the peach grove.

April is the season when peach trees bloom and bear fruit.

"I don't know how it looks. Logically speaking, after the guava is sold out, it's the peach's turn."

Lin Xing climbed over a small hill and saw twelve peach trees on the slope from a distance.

Maotao is their local name, which refers to peach trees that grow naturally in the local area without grafting.

Lin Xing remembers that some of the trees were planted by his grandfather after he spat out the pits from eating peaches.

These peach trees are growing very well.

Most of the branches are already hanging with small fruits, and there are still pink flowers on some branches. When the wind blows, the petals of the branches flutter to the ground.

"The human face has gone nowhere, but the peach blossoms still smile in the spring breeze."

Somehow, Lin Xing remembered this verse.

"I wonder where Sijiu went?"

Almost every village has a madman or fool.

Every March and April when the peach blossoms bloom, there is a man named Sijiu in Wutong Village who suffers from peach blossom disease.

During the attack of peach blossom disease, he would walk up and down the road, drool when he saw little girls, and occasionally attack people.

When Lin Xing was a child, Sijiu was kind to him when he was normal and gave Lin Xing snacks several times.

In recent years, Sijiu has disappeared. Some people say that he was taken to a mental hospital for recuperation. Some people say that Yiyi was moved around by trucks pulling nearby lunatics.

Lin Xing’s specific whereabouts are unknown.

Lin Xing approached the peach forest and saw densely packed fruits hanging on the branches, which were still light green.

"There are many fruits, so this harvest should be good."

However, when Lin Xing picked off a small fruit and looked at it carefully, his brows wrinkled.

There are several small holes on the fruit.

"I almost forgot, these peaches are prone to worms. If they all get worms, it will be difficult to control them."

The bugs in peaches are called peach borers, and they are very difficult to get rid of.

If you want to prevent and control it, you have to take action when it blooms.

Because the insects will lay their eggs in the flowers, and as the fruit grows, they will grow inside the fruit.

When the fruit grows, these bugs will eat it from the inside out.

When I was young, it was very popular for local children to do an experiment. They would break open overripe or rotten peaches and dry them in the sun. Soon, they would see many small black and light brown bugs crawling out.
