The sun rises early in summer.
At about half past five, my mother got up to cook and was chopping vegetables when she suddenly smelled a refreshing and light floral fragrance coming in from outside the window sill.
She looked over curiously, only to find Li Zhe holding a large flowerpot outside the window sill.
"Why did Xiaozhe get up so early today?"
My mother was surprised. Li Zhe usually couldn't wake up and had to be called several times before he got up to eat.
Li Zhe looked at the results of a night's work with satisfaction. In front of him was a dazzling rose tree, which he had pruned to make it more artistic. He planted it in a large flowerpot that was several times larger than before, and it was already filled with flowers. Full of fresh soil.
The colorful roses sway slightly in the breeze, and their fragrance floats.
Throwing away the scissors in his hand, Li Zhe took a few photos of the flowerpot with his mobile phone and sent them to his circle of friends:
"The grafted roses have bloomed and are so beautiful. If anyone wants to take them for themselves, give them away!"
By the way, it was synchronized to QQ space. Li Zhe looked at it with satisfaction and went to wash up.
Maybe it was because he drank water from a strange white porcelain bottle and didn't sleep all night, but he still felt full of energy.
"Where did this rose come from? Why is it so strange?"
While brushing his teeth in the bathroom, Li Zhe heard his father's curious voice coming from the yard.
Li Zhe quickly shouted: "It's the rose in my room, I moved it out."
When he ran out, he found that his father had already taken scissors and started pruning the potted plants. Obviously, Li Weiguo was not satisfied with Li Zhe's pruning technology.
After pruning, Li Weiguo looked around the rose tree twice, studied it for a long time, and exclaimed: "This is the first time I have seen such a beautiful rose tree. It's strange. This thing can also grow more than a dozen different colors of flowers. New varieties. ?”
It was already past seven o'clock after breakfast, and the family of three walked toward the orchard with the sprayers on their backs.
The energetic big yellow dog went wild for a night without knowing where. When he came back, he happened to see his owner leaving home, and he quickly followed him happily, wagging his tail.
After applying pesticides to the fruit trees, it was almost ten o'clock, and the big yellow dog was circling at my feet. This guy hadn't eaten in the morning and started to howl in protest.
Li Zhe simply ignored it and took out his phone to open WeChat. He found that there were dozens of replies to the friend circle he had posted before, as well as @himself's information in the classmate group. As soon as he browsed through it, his face suddenly darkened.
"In 666, Li Zhe went home and planted fairy flowers. The great god created miracles for the Chinese flower industry!"
"Where did you find this picture? It's so beautiful!"
"A potted rose plant has more than a dozen flowers of different colors. The colorful roses imported from the Netherlands are so impressive! If this flower is real, it would be worth at least several thousand yuan."
"If you don't accept anyone, I will accept your p-picture ability!"
"Hey, if this is true, I'll eat it!"
"Chinese Valentine's Day is coming soon. I have reserved these flowers. Don't grab them. I guarantee that they will make my goddess happy."...
There were a lot of replies to the messages, but most of them were in a sinister tone. It was obvious that no one took the photos as real.
Rolling his eyes, Li Zhe sighed: This is the trust between people.
"Xiao Zhe, you should go back first and cook the food first."
The summer sun began to shine, and his parents were still busy, but they urged Li Zhe to go home quickly. Although their son planned to go home and farm with them, they really couldn't bear to let their son suffer this fate.
Recently, they also persuaded their son to return to the city early to continue looking for a job, otherwise he would go to college in vain, but Li Zhe was determined not to go back.
"knew."
Li Zhe packed up his farm tools and was about to go home. The big yellow dog snored up from under the fruit tree, followed him with a swaying head, and started to pounce on him.
On weekdays, he would feel extremely tired after doing farm work to this point, but today it was as if he had taken stimulants. He was not tired at all. He seemed to have endless strength. Even if he was basking in the sun, his whole body was always full of energy. It is a state of refreshment.
As soon as he got home, Li Zhe ran to the rose pot in the yard, spinning around and recording a short video on his mobile phone.
The classmates actually suspected that the picture was from p, which made him very unhappy and he had to give him a slap in the face to clear his name.
During the photo shoot, he even pulled off a few petals from the flowers to prove that the photos were real flowers!
When the video was uploaded, Li Zhe chuckled. For you guys in the group, I'll let you know that what I grow is different.
When he returned to the house, he immediately looked at the strange white porcelain bottle.
When he left in the morning, he deliberately filled the white porcelain bottle with water and placed it on the desk. As he expected, the water in the bottle had become extremely clear and rippling slightly. He picked it up and drank a few sips, and then he felt a rush of water all over his body. Shivering, I felt like I was in a state of ecstasy.
"Woooo~woooo~"
The hungry big yellow dog protested dissatisfied, staring at Li Zhe with his big head, staring longingly at the bottle in his hand.
"Look at your sister, this is water, not food..."
Just as he was about to kick the rhubarb away, Li Zhe suddenly had a thought. He grabbed the bottle and walked to the dog basin in the yard. He poured some water from the bottle into it, pointed at the basin and shouted, "Here, let me drink it."
The big yellow dog originally thought that Li Zhe was going to feed him, so he ran to the dog bowl happily wagging his tail, lowered his head and saw the water inside, then looked up at Li Zhe, then looked down at the water, and finally twisted his head. , and ignored Li Zhe directly.
"You bastard! You looked like a fool just now. Didn't you want to drink..."
Li Zhe angrily grabbed the big yellow dog by its neck and pushed it into the dog bowl.
Originally, the big yellow dog refused to drink, but when the corner of its mouth touched the water, its eyes suddenly opened wide, as if it had licked the delicious broth, and it drank the water in the dog basin with a burst of squeaking.
After drinking, the big yellow dog still licked the edge of the basin with unsatisfied interest. He raised his head and stared at Li Zhe, wagging his tail crazily, and his eyes were gleaming.
"This bottle is indeed a treasure, it's amazing!" Li Zhe laughed heartily, and seeing the big yellow dog being so greedy, he got up to fill it with water again.
Next, the big yellow dog became a guinea pig and was fed more than twenty bottles of water. This guy still wanted to drink, but finally his belly was so round that he couldn't drink anymore, so he waddled outside.
After a period of exploration, Li Zhe gradually discovered some characteristics of the white porcelain bottle. Even water with impurities will become clear after being put in for about a minute. The longer the time is, the more obvious the magical effect will be.
He plans to find more media to experiment with.
At this moment, the corner of his eye moved and he spotted a large transparent glass wine jar under the Eight Immortals table in the living room.
The wine jar was filled with wine, and a slightly swollen ginseng was soaked in it. Looking at the dusty red gauze on the wine lid, Li Zhe muttered: "I haven't drunk this wine in a few years. It's probably expired."
The ginseng in the wine jar was dug by Li Weiguo in the mountains before. It was wild ginseng, but it was very old and could not be sold for much money, so he simply kept it for himself to make wine.
He carried the wine jar to the table and opened the glass lid. Suddenly, an unpleasant smell of alcohol came to his nose, which made him frown. It was obvious that the farmer's homemade wine inside was no longer drinkable.
The wine can is a wide-mouth cylindrical shape, and the palm-sized white porcelain bottle can be easily thrown into it.
The white porcelain bottle sank to the bottom, and Li Zhe stared at it.
Soon, the already delicate and motionless white porcelain bottle suddenly began to shake slightly with a strange rhythm. At the same time, ripples spread in the wine jar. The originally turbid and yellow wine gradually became clear. …
Li Zhe was ecstatic.
This thing is so amazing!
"Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang! Old Brother Li, Old Brother Li is not at home!"
There was a violent knock on the door, startling Li Zhe who was concentrating, and then Uncle Wang's loud voice came over the wall from the courtyard door.
"Uncle Wang, my dad went to the orchard! What's the matter?"
Li Zhe quickly went to open the door and saw a dark-skinned middle-aged man holding a cigarette in his mouth standing at the door.
"Hurry up and see your dog. It's a rebellion. I don't know what's going on. It's going crazy on the roof of my house. Go and get it down. All the tiles are broken!" Uncle Wang looked a little angry and pointed. shouted from a distance.
"ah?"
Li Zhe was a little surprised. How could his big yellow dog, which was always very well-behaved, run into Uncle Wang's bungalow?
Darling, it’s not like you drank the water from the white porcelain bottle and had any side effects or was poisoned!
I also drank two bottles of that water, nothing will go wrong...
Thinking of this possibility, his scalp went numb for a while, he quickly locked the door and ran towards the village with Uncle Wang.
Because he had contracted the hilltop to plant orchards, flower beds, and take care of fish ponds, Li Zhe's home was a bit far from the village. He was a little anxious, so he left Uncle Wang behind and ran over first.
Along the way, he discovered the changes in his body. With a slight step of his legs, he could run at a speed that he could not imagine before. The wind was blowing in front of him, his face was not red and he was out of breath, and he ran faster and faster...
Uncle Wang behind him originally wanted to start the pickup truck and take him with him, but when he looked up, he found that he had almost reached the village at the end of the road.
"Is this guy born in the year of the monkey?"
As soon as I ran into the village, I heard a barking dog and Aunt Wang's scolding.
I ran over and took a look, and sure enough I found that the big yellow dog was standing on the roof of Uncle Wang's house, jumping up and down from time to time, trampling down many tiles on the roof, making a loud banging sound.
"How did this dead dog get up there?"
The village is full of tile-roofed houses, but it would be great if an ordinary native dog could jump over the wall. This was the first time I saw a dog jump onto the roof.
Li Zhe sweated profusely and shouted quickly: "Damn dog, come down quickly!"
The big yellow dog that had been having fun on the roof heard his voice, barked twice excitedly, jumped steadily from the roof to the wall, and jumped off the wall again.
Li Zhe was stunned. Damn, this dog is so awesome that he can perform acrobatics!
And he didn't know if it was an illusion, but he found that the big yellow dog at this moment was larger than before, and its lines were smoother.
"Aunt Wang, I'll tell my dad later and let him pay for your tiles..."
One person and one dog ran away in confusion, and Aunt Wang's curses came from behind. Li Zhe ran away angrily and kicked the dog.
But the big yellow dog didn't seem to know the pain at all. It was jumping around next to him, playing very happily, and seemed to be too energetic.
After being rushed and scolded all the way, as soon as he got home, Li Zhe found a dog chain and tied up the big yellow dog to prevent it from going out to cause trouble again.
The big yellow dog looked reluctant and shook Li Zhe's trousers to protest, but he kicked him away.
I returned to the house and prepared to continue studying the white porcelain bottle.
The originally yellowed spirit in the wine jar had been 'purified' to become extremely clear, and the ginseng inside was not as edematous as before. Li Zhe lay down and took a closer look. The next moment, his eyes almost popped out!
"Holy shit! This ginseng actually sprouted new buds!"
