v2 Chapter 198： New Potatoes

,

Wang Liang tentatively believed the old man's judgment, walked into the laboratory, turned his head and asked, "Then what should we do now?"

The old man pointed to the bag in Wang Liang's hand and said, "We need more samples for observation now. You can make these plants grow quickly, so we don't need so much time."

"It's quite simple." Wang Liang looked at the bag in his hand and nodded.

Soon, the people in the experiment planted these seeds one by one on the ground, and Wang Liang used his ability to make these seeds grow rapidly. In just a few minutes, some purple buds emerged from the soil.

Such a scene caused people around to talk about it, but Wang Liang's face was not very good-looking. These seeds grew faster, and they were different from yesterday.

The old man stared at the leaves on the ground, touched his white beard with one hand and said, "This new type of potato should grow by absorbing some kind of energy in the air, so it's hard to judge what it grows."

Wang Liang pondered for a while, then turned to the old man and said, "These things are still potatoes in essence, I just changed their growth method, from absorbing light to absorbing energy in the air."

The old man shook his head when he heard the words, and disagreed with Wang Liang's statement: "The growth method has changed. This is already a new type of plant. It can only be said that it has the characteristics of potatoes."

In the past day, small trees grew one after another in the experimental shed, with some yellow fruits hanging on them.

Looking at this scene, the surrounding researchers and technical experts were all dumbfounded, and some even looked like they had seen a ghost.

However, they have all experienced the end of the world, and their tolerance is relatively strong. Isn't it just the rapid growth of plants? It's not a big deal either.

Wang Liang looked at these small trees in a daze: "Don't potatoes grow in the ground? Why are they hanging on the trees now?"

He didn't quite understand what was going on, it was obviously a plant he had transformed, but in the end even he didn't recognize it.

The old man touched the branches of these small trees and said: "It's still a herbaceous plant, but it's too thick. If these fruits can be eaten, at least we won't be short of food in the future."

"Just relying on you, little friend, to cast spells, we can get a lot of food."

Wang Liang smiled awkwardly and said, "Controlling these plants is already my limit."

Seeing that Wang Liang didn't understand what he meant, the old man explained patiently: "This new type of potato has grown fast enough. Even without your spell, if it can be eaten, we only need to plant it in large quantities."

As he spoke, the old man reached out to grab a potato fruit and tore it off.

Seeing this, Wang Liang hurriedly stopped him, saying: "Old Qin, don't eat this stuff indiscriminately, I won't be responsible if someone dies from eating it."

The old man cast a glance at Wang Liang and said, "I'm not a fool, why would I eat recklessly, I just smell it and observe it."

He put the yellow fruit in front of his nose and smelled it, then touched it with the skin of his mouth, then took out a small knife from his waist, cut it open and observed the flesh inside.

Except for the difference in appearance, the pulp inside is similar to potatoes.

"It looks edible." The old man said to himself.

Wang Liang emphasized: "This thing should not be eaten indiscriminately. Maybe we should find a small white mouse or something to experiment."

The old man nodded, thinking that what Wang Liang said was very reasonable, he handed the potato to a person next to him and said, "Wang Yi, go fry this thing, let's have a taste."

He turned his head and said, "We are guinea pigs. These days, guinea pigs are no longer suitable for experimentation. Only we can do it ourselves."

"According to my experience, as long as it doesn't kill people, it can be eaten."

Wang Liang scratched his head with his hands, feeling very unreliable, but he knew there was a reason for the old man's eagerness.

After such a long time, food has been in short supply, and because of the accelerated oxidation reaction, meat products rot very quickly, even if they are air-dried and stored, they will still go bad.

Many granaries that store grain are also damaged. Some bug-like monsters in the black mist will steal the grain and eat a lot of it.

Potatoes fried with some chili and a few slices of fat must be fragrant. A plate of hot potato fried meat is placed on the table, and the aroma is overflowing.

Everyone couldn't help drooling, but they just watched, no one dared to eat.

The old man took a deep breath and said with a smile: "Have you noticed that this fresh potato has a special fragrance, which can arouse people's appetite."

He paused, then changed his voice and said, "Do any of you want to try it?"

Everyone was silent, just silently looking at the old man and the plate of potatoes.

Looking at this scene, Wang Liang hesitated and said, "Old Qin, let me do it. After all, I am an Extraordinary with a better physique, and I also made this thing."

The old man shook his head repeatedly and said, "That's not okay, it's because you are an Extraordinary. You can't die from eating it, and it's okay to eat it. That doesn't mean that ordinary people can't die from eating it, and it's okay to eat it."

"It's better for me to come. Anyway, I'm a lot of age, and it's not a pity to die."

Another young man in a gray coat and glasses, Wang Lihui, said aloud, "I'll do it for Section Chief Qin. It's not your turn to do this kind of thing."

After finishing speaking, before the old man could reply, he picked up a quick chip and put a piece of potato into his mouth, closed his eyes tightly, with a ferocious expression on his face, as if he was taking some kind of poison.

Without chewing twice, he opened his eyes and said with a look of surprise: "It tastes very good, delicious! It still tastes like potatoes, but it's different."

With that said, he took two more bites.

Everyone stared at him with their eyes wide open. There was no sound in the room, only the sound of him chewing vegetables.

Wang Liang asked, "How is it?"

Wang Lihui nodded and said, "The taste is really good."

"I mean, do you have any other feelings?" Wang Liang asked again.

Wang Lihui stopped fast, and said thoughtfully: "I feel my body is light, and my mind is also very clear. It doesn't have any stimulant ingredients."

Before he finished speaking, he fell backwards and was supported by the old man, the skin on his face turned ashen.

"I said that there must be a problem. The energy in the air absorbed by this plant is related to Extraordinary people. Ordinary people will not be able to bear it if they eat it."

Wang Liang suddenly reacted and slapped the table with one hand.

The old man pointed to the person next to him: "Send him to the infirmary quickly, he doesn't eat much, so there should be no major problems."

Immediately after ~www.novelhall.com~ Wang Lihui was carried to the infirmary by four or five people.

The doctor is a middle-aged man, he was originally a military doctor. He looked at Wang Lihui's situation, looked surprised, and said in a puzzled way:

"His condition doesn't look like he's been poisoned, but more like he's deficient. What did he eat? Millennium ginseng?"

Wang Liang thought for a while and said, "He probably just ate potatoes."

"Potatoes?" The doctor was still puzzled: "Can you eat potatoes like this?"

Wang Liang gestured and said, "That's a new type of potato developed by our department. This brother should be fine."

The doctor thought for a while and said, "It's okay, just take a rest, don't give him that thing again."
