After viewing the bird house, everyone moved on to the next attraction: the soundproof room of Mandrake.
Many people have heard of Mandrake. It has appeared in various fantasy works and is considered a famous name. At this time, when they heard someone calling Mandrake's name, they all ran over to watch out of curiosity.
The glass room that Mu You prepared for Mandrake is a space that is four meters long and one meter thick.
Because mandrakes like to dig holes, half of the glass house is covered with earth and rocks, but the part below the soil layer is made of one-way glass, and above the soil layer is the soundproof glass that can normally receive light.
In other words, after the mandrake penetrates into the soil layer, it will be dark when looking outside, but from the outside, the scene in the soil layer can be clearly seen.
Precisely because the space was soundproof, Mandrake didn't know that a large number of people were approaching it.
At this time, it is busy building its own underground palace, dragging a mini hoe in its hand, constantly digging out clods of soil from the soil and sending them outside. After working all day since yesterday, it has dug out a "basement" with two rooms and one living room underground.
In the open space outside its basement, it has also opened up an acre of mini fields, with several egg-shaped plants similar to watermelons planted in the ground.
Those were a few succulent fortune teller seeds that Mu You had given it before, and they were treasured in the buds on its head. After arriving at its new home, they planted them immediately.
After Mandrake worked on the ground sweating profusely for a while, he swaggered back to the ground with a small hoe, walked to its field, picked up the mini kettle set that Mu You had prepared for it, and started to give it to the mandrake in front of him. Water the succulent seeds.
After watering it, it sat down on the stone, picked up the kettle and poured some water into its mouth. As if it was exhausted, it lay leisurely on the stone with its eyes closed and basked in the sun, with a quite expression on its face. Comfortable.
It wasn't until a moment later that it noticed that the light around it seemed to be flickering. When it opened its eyes in confusion, it immediately saw the densely packed faces outside the glass room, all with a terrifying expression called "aunt's smile". Staring at it, they were holding brick-like things in their hands and constantly firing "flash attacks" at it.
The mandrake was immediately frightened to the point of death. It screamed, used all four limbs and short legs, kicked out sparks on the ground, and fled into its basement, huddled in the hole and shivered. , it was not until he confirmed that no one was chasing him outside that he relaxed a little, secretly crawled to the entrance of the cave, and looked out warily.
Little did they know that every move it made was watched by tourists, especially when it looked furtively and battled with the air, causing bursts of laughter among the outside crowd.
"This is too cute!"
All the tourists said they were attracted by the cuteness of the mandrake, especially the female tourists, who couldn't help but feel girly when looking at this scene.
In the more famous "Harry Potter" world view, the mandrake is an ugly creature that can even bite people's fingers, which is a bit scary. But the real mandrake is not only cute and adorable, Every move was filled with joy.
Who would have thought before that it is obviously a grass, but like a living little man, carrying a hoe and living a leisurely pastoral life in Nanshan. This contrast is also one of the most interesting points for tourists.
"Huh? There are tree people here too!"
At this time, the tourists on the edge seemed to have discovered something and screamed in surprise.
Next to the Mandrake soundproof house, another vegetable garden was opened. It was separated by a low fence and marked "No entry". Egg-shaped watermelons were planted in the garden. In addition, There are also many tree people who look like saplings, running back and forth in the garden, taking care of the growth of "watermelon".
"Is this also a mandrake?"
"They don't look alike...but they are all moving plants..."
…
Several people outside the fence were whispering to each other.
"This is called succulent fortune teller." Mu You said, minding his own business, he climbed over the fence and walked into the vegetable garden.
A group of little tree people in the garden immediately gathered at his feet, making babbling sounds like
Like every naughty child, they kept grabbing his trouser legs and trying to climb on him.
Few people have heard of the name Succulent Grass, but the group of small tree people that can move in front of them are not much less cute than the mandrakes next to them.
The most important thing is that the trees here are interactive!
As Mu You led a group of saplings to the edge of the garden, picked up a sapling and handed it to a tourist outside the fence, the tourists here suddenly became excited.
The several animals we saw along the road were all locked up in glass rooms and could only be seen but not touched. Now we finally had creatures that we could directly interact with.
The exclamations that erupted here also immediately attracted the attention of the nearby Mandela Thatched Cottage and some tourists in the distance.
More and more people were attracted and let out more exclamations, so the outside of the vegetable garden was soon crowded with people.
"Succulents are not dangerous and will not harm humans. Just be careful not to pull them. Also, do not try to feed them food and water. They only absorb nutrients from the soil and the sun and will not eat ordinary feed."
As Mu You spoke, he reached out toward the ground. The saplings at his feet scrambled to crawl along his fingers and onto his palm, and then were delivered to the waiting tourists outside.
Fortunately, the tourists at the scene were all relatively well-educated, and the store manager Mu You was watching personally. The order on the scene was maintained well. Those who received the succulent fortune tellers carefully held the saplings in their hands, and then several people They watched together, reaching out to tease each other from time to time, but there was no snatching.
The succulent fortune teller in the form of a treant has an outstanding appearance. It has a pair of small bean-like eyes and a less conspicuous muzzle on its green body. Its body is covered with thick and juicy succulent leaves, especially its neck. The ring of fleshy leaves on the top protects the sapling's round head like armor, making it look quite cute.
These succulent fortune tellers that hatch into tree people have been sterilized. After sterilization, their size will stop growing, and they will maintain a length of about one decimeter for a long time, making them perfect pets.
Most of the people who crowded in the front row to watch the little tree people were women. In this case, the old men in the back row were too embarrassed to come over and squeeze in. They could only stand on tiptoes and look enviously.
Lin Hai, on the other hand, had changed into a nun's skin at some point, and took advantage of his gender to squeeze in front of the fence to take close-up shots.
Looking at the more than 30 saplings being played with by the tourists, Lin Hai was moved. He looked at Mu You and asked, "Master, there are so many of these little tree people, are they ready to be sold?"
"Yes." Mu You nodded.
Succulent plants are one of the easiest organisms to cultivate for him. Whether he borrows his grandma's harvest horn or his own "crazy growth", he can quickly cultivate plants.
In fact, these are already the second batch of succulent fortune tellers. The first batch of trees sent back were planted in the lock core space, and many seeds have been saved.
Of course, it is not advisable to sell too much at once, as too much may cause flooding and devaluation in the market, and may also arouse others' suspicion, so Muyou only planned to sell limited quantities from the beginning.
Tourists were even more surprised when they heard that this thing was still for sale, and asked about the price.
Muyou didn't want to whet his appetite, and directly announced the price he had already set: 40,000 per plant!
Forty thousand yuan, converted into a life span of about five years, is undoubtedly extremely expensive. Spending forty thousand yuan just to buy a plant of grass is unimaginable to ordinary people.
However, even at this price, it was still being robbed at the scene.
"I'll buy one!"
"Boss, I want one too, no, two!"
"Keep one for me too!"
…
After Muyou announced the price, many people at the scene rushed to raise their hands and expressed their intention to buy. Some people even wanted to buy four or five as soon as they asked, without blinking an eyelid. The gap between the rich and the poor was fully reflected at this moment.
"Don't worry, because the number of pets in our store is currently limited, and we need
The quantity requested is too large. Each person is limited to one purchase of each creature, and a maximum of two of each creature for sale will be sold at each exhibition. "Muyou announced new rules.
Nowadays, the only creatures officially sold in his store are succulents, Bulbasaur seeds and several kinds of ornamental fish. They sell two per session, ten per day. This sales rate is almost the same as their breeding rate. At the same time, through this limited marketing method, the store can continue to remain popular.
"Huh? Why only two?"
Everyone immediately complained. There were at least forty or fifty people who had just raised their hands to buy. If they only sold two, it meant that they had to compete with many other competitors, and they might not be able to buy it even if they had money.
"Boss, can I pay more for it?" someone asked hurriedly.
Mu You shook his head firmly: "The price is fixed. Our store does not conduct auctions. Anyone who wants to buy can use the APP to scan the code here to make a reservation. Ten minutes before the end of each session, the price will be randomly selected from Those who have made reservations will be selected for purchase."
Everyone tried to persuade him for a while, but seeing that Mu You wasn't going to change his mind, they all had no choice but to run to swipe the code to make a reservation.
Although some people are reluctant to use this method of fighting luck, they have to admit that this method is the fairest at present. At least everyone has the opportunity to buy it, and it will not be monopolized by a few rich people.
When everyone scanned the QR code to sign up, a relevant agreement called "Guarantee for Raising Magical Creatures" immediately popped up on their mobile phones. They had to read and agree before they could sign up.
The content of the agreement is not much, the main thing is that the buyer must ensure not to abuse, resell, or throw away the magical creatures in hand!
In addition, there are some scattered small clauses. In short, they guarantee that the purchased pets cannot be used for purposes other than breeding.
Of course, if you encounter problems while raising the pet, such as if you no longer want to keep it or cannot keep it for various reasons, you can return it to the pet store at any time. The pet store will recycle the pet at a certain price based on the state of the pet.
This agreement is also one of the conditions for approval by the Academy of Sciences. In the future, all magic pet-related stores will have similar agreements.
A group of people were noisily scanning the QR code. Muyou called Xiaoya to help watch, and he went to rest for a while.
After leaving the scene, Mu You quickly discovered Coke lying on a stone platform not far away.
Coke was pulled over by Mu You today to make up for the numbers. It was a magical animal after all. Mu You was going to pull it over to be a lucky cat or something, but it turned out that this guy was too lazy and found such a comfortable place after entering the space. Lie down on the rocks and bask in the sun and sleep.
Pedestrians would pass by it from time to time, but they had no intention of stopping. After all, Coke looked like an ordinary shorthair, nothing new.
"Look at that cat, it's so fat and short!"
"What's so good about beautiful short hair? Come and see Magic Pets. Let me tell you, the mandrake opposite is so cute. You must take more photos for me and post them on WeChat Moments... "
…
Two little girls passed by the stone platform, looking in the direction of Coke and giggling.
Cola was completely unmoved by this, and lay lazily on the warm stone. His eyes followed the direction in which the two girls left, and he sneered in his heart: Huh, stupid mortals, I don't care about pleasing you guys. The woman who screams at a blade of grass!
Stretching his body, Coke looked up and saw Mu You walking in the distance. He jumped up and complained to him: "Mu You, why isn't it over yet? I'm going back to watch anime!"
"When can you not watch anime? While there are many customers now, why not go and interact with them? If you behave well, others will feed you."
"I'm not interested, meow. And these fools are so ignorant. That woman just now thought I was fat? Am I fat?" Coke said unhappily.
Mu You looked at it with disdain, thinking to himself, if you don't pee and look like yourself, you really have no self-awareness at all...
Mu You did not directly attack it, but shook his head and said: "You should cherish the opportunity. This is your last day on earth. Tomorrow you will go back to your master. You
Don't you plan to strive for a title like "star animal" before leaving and take it back to show your master? "
"Celebrity animal? What is that?" Coke was stunned.
"I opened a poll for "Today's Cutest Animals" on the APP. Each visitor can vote three times for his or her favorite three animals. The top three animals with the final votes will receive the label of "Today's Star Animal". "Mu Youyou.
"Oh? How many votes do I have?" Coke became a little interested. When it followed its owner at the Magic Academy, it participated in several similar votings. At that time, it was often the top vote-getter.
"Hmm...three votes." Mu You said while looking at his phone.
"Why only three votes?" Coke frowned. The difference between the number of votes and the number of votes was slightly larger than what he imagined.
Mu You glanced at it speechlessly. These three votes were the friendship votes cast by him and Lin Xue Xiaoya.
"Then where do I rank?" Coke asked unwillingly.
"Hmm...last one." Mu You said.
"Countdown?" Cola looked at Mu You in disbelief, and it took him a while to realize: "I'm the last one? Are you kidding me? I'm obviously the most valuable familiar in the audience, okay!"
"If you don't believe me, see for yourself." Muyou showed it the screen on his phone.
Cola hurriedly grabbed his phone to check, and saw a row of more than 40 pet portraits. His cat head was indeed the last one, and besides him, other animals, no matter how few, still received double-digit votes.
"how so……"
Cola felt as if he was struck by lightning. Looking at his white gloves and flesh pads, the whole cat fell into a state of suspicion.
"Am I... no longer attractive?"
"...Then when I go back, will the master not want me?"
Coke looked distractedly at the tourists coming and going around him, but no one looked at him, and he suddenly felt even more disappointed.
Just when Mu You was worried that the silly cat had been over-struck, he saw Cola suddenly get excited and yelled: "No, I can't embarrass the master! I want to prove that I am the cutest familiar! I want to Be an animal star!"
While meowing, Coke jumped off the stone platform and rushed towards the two nearest figures in the distance.
Coke ran towards the two girls who had just laughed at him.
The two girls were discussing something excitedly when they saw a spherical pig, a spherical creature, rushing toward them. They were startled, and then they saw clearly that it was a cat running towards them.
Coke rushed directly to the short girl among them, rubbed against her leg and meowed, trying hard to show off all the cute moves he knew.
The girls who were entangled were stunned: "Hey, why does this cat keep pestering me!"
The round-faced girl next to her stared at the Coke for a few seconds, and suddenly said, "Hey, this cat seems pretty cute too!"
However, the short girl next to him immediately shook his head in disgust: "Let's go quickly, I feel that this cat is not mentally normal... and the short hair is shedding too much. I am allergic to cat hair..."
Coke was once again struck by the disgusting look in the short girl's eyes. After a brief moment of disappointment, he quickly changed his target. He held the round-faced girl's ankles with his two front paws and continued to meow non-stop, looking at him pitifully. she.
The round-faced girl felt a little soft now. She looked at the feed bucket in her hand and hesitated: "But looking at how pitiful it is, it must have been hungry for a long time. Why don't you give it something to eat?"
"Ah? Are you sure you want to give it? But this feed bucket is for Chocobo. The feed bucket here is too expensive. I don't have money to buy a second bucket." The short girl was a little reluctant.
At this time, Coke hurriedly waved his paws at the feed bucket to signal that he would not eat, and then kept barking at the mobile phones in their hands.
"Huh? It doesn't seem to want to eat... it points to the phone... does it want us to vote for it?" The round-faced girl came to her senses.
"It's impossible, right? Does a cat have such an IQ?" The short girl looked unbelieving.
As soon as he finished speaking, Coke began to nod his head, indicating that this was it, and both of them were
Stupid.
The two women looked at each other and realized something.
"Boss, is this cat also a magical animal?" The two hurriedly found Mu You not far away and asked.
Mu You glanced at Coke, nodded, and helped to promote it: "Yes, it is called the Phantom Cat. Although it looks like a short-haired cat, it is actually a very precious civet cat. Its abilities are comparable to those of others. Creates illusions in vision."
"Wow!"
When they heard this, both of them looked at Coke in disbelief.
The short girl thought for a while and suddenly said: "Then can you become a ragdoll cat?"
Cola frowned when he heard this, and meowed in displeasure: Are you kidding? These two stupid women actually want it to turn into another cat. Doesn't this still mean that it has no charm?
"If you can become a Ragdoll cat, I will vote for you!" the girl added.
Coke transformed on the spot without saying a word.
In the blink of an eye, he transformed from a chubby short boy into a fluffy fairy doll.
"Wow, things have really changed!"
The two women looked at the beautiful puppet in front of them in surprise, stepped forward and gave it a wild vote, and finally voted for it as agreed.
After watching the two people vote with his own eyes, Coke finally found the trick and hurriedly went to Muyou to send a message: "Muyou Muyou, please quickly write me a sign asking for votes. Remember to write down my ability. Said I can perform transformations for them, as long as they vote for me! "
A few minutes later, Coke got the sign it wanted from Mu You, held it in his mouth, and went straight to the next tourist.
Looking at Coca Cola in the distance looking for tourists to roll around in a cute way and perform tricks to get votes, Mu You rolled his eyes and ignored it. He continued to inspect the situation in the park. Soon, he saw two familiar figures in another direction. He walked over somewhat surprised.
"That one with glasses, don't feed it randomly! It's called a salamander. It was born and grew in flames. The only food it can eat is chili peppers and plant ashes that are hot enough. Eating ordinary feed will only make it suffer from diarrhea..."
"Nonsense! This is called Chakarosaurus. Even though it looks like a small velociraptor, it is actually a kind of magic chicken. You can tell this from the comb on its head..."
…
Near the exhibition area where several animals were brought back from the Academy of Sciences, an energetic old man was standing in front of the crowd, talking to the animals around him, and from time to time pointed out the obvious mistakes of some tourists.
"Huh? Why are they all gone..."
The old man was talking in high spirits. When he looked back, he realized that the crowd around him had already moved away, and he was the only one who was still talking to himself.
"Dean, you have such a strong aura!" A pony-tailed girl from behind said with embarrassment. She was obviously a normal science animal, but she felt like she had been in a big class in the academy. She always felt like she would be called upon in the next moment. He stood up to answer the question.
"Dean Chen? Why are you here?" At this time, Mu You's voice came.
Mixed among the tourists in front of them, an old man and a young man pretending to be ordinary people, were none other than Chen Yichuan and Song Wenjing whom they had met at the Academy of Sciences a few days ago. Behind the two men, there were several young men and women, all of whom seemed to be members of the Academy of Sciences.
"Dean Chen...you are not really bringing people here to buy Bulbasaur seeds, are you?" Mu You walked up to the two of them and said with a strange expression.
"Of course not." Chen Yichuan's eyelids twitched and he said with a serious expression: "I'm here to check whether the animals you took away have been well taken care of!"
"Oh... what do you think?" Mu You asked.
Chen Yichuan looked around the space and nodded: "Not bad..."
But after looking around, his eyes rested on Coke, who was looking for someone to bump into.
"This phantom cat, it seems you didn't register it that day, right?"
"Yes, because it is not a pet from a pet shop." Mu said.
"Oh?" Chen Yichuan was a little surprised.
"Those who have been fostered by others will be returned to me in a few days." Mu Youyou said.
