"Oh, I was beaten," Qin Le held his stomach aggrievedly, his body arched like a shrimp, "It hurts so much."
"No way? I didn't try my best..." Sherlock saw his face turned pale and suddenly became a little nervous, "Are you okay?"
"Haha, I'm pretending." Qin Le stood up straight for a second and returned to his normal state, "Your fist is still so weak."
"Isn't it normal for a mage's fist to be weak and weak?!" Sherlock jumped in anger.
Yi Liuling recalled the few mage friends she knew, Kun Yi, the holder of the Skull Crushing Staff, and Angela, who had a broken leg, and shook her head silently in her heart.
Qin Le just shook his head and taunted: "They are all mages, but your fists are not as powerful as Hill's."
Yi Liuling now agrees with what Sherlock said before. Qin Le really deserves a beating.
"Wait, wait until I make my ice mecha, and you won't be able to bear a punch." Sherlock said with a grunt.
"Gulu..." At this time, someone's stomach rang. Sherlock immediately turned to look at Yi Liuling, "Junior, are you hungry? Let's go to the cafeteria and ignore this nonsense."
Then, Sherlock freed up a hand, dragging Yi Liuling, who had a puzzled look on his face, and strode away proudly.
Yi Liuling lowered his head and glanced at his stomach. Although he was indeed hungry, it wasn't his stomach that was making the noise.
Thinking of this, he looked at Sherlock's face, which was obscured by his hair, and wondered whether the senior was hungry and didn't want to show his timidity in front of Qin Le? In this case, Yi Liuling could not let her eldest brother stand down, so Yi Liuling decided to remain silent.
After the two of them walked away, Qin Le also had a speechless expression on his face: "Idiot."
As he spoke, his stomach growled again.
Yi Liuling followed Sherlock to the cafeteria for lunch. Since the afternoon game didn't start that early, he considered going back to take a nap, so he said goodbye to Sherlock and turned around and walked back.
When she was about to walk to the dormitory, Yi Liuling saw Randy outside the dormitory door.
"Oh, you're finally here." As soon as Randy saw Yi Liuling, he walked over with bright eyes, "Follow me."
Yi Liuling was immediately very alert: "I have a spinning top competition to participate in later, so I can't use up my energy now."
"What I want you to do has nothing to do with expending physical energy. It's better to say that if you dare to expend physical energy, I will beat you to death." Randy's eyes widened. "It's too late. I'll tell you on the way."
Yi Liuling was dragged all the way by Randy like a kite, until she ran into the woods on the back hill and stopped outside a flower bush.
"This is the noon orchid?" Yi Liuling knelt down and looked at the blue flowers blooming on the bush, "Does this still grow in the school?"
The noon orchid is not a rare plant, nor is it even a spiritual plant, but it has a certain symbolic meaning. It is similar to the rose in the Blue Star world and is a commonly used confession flower.
It is an upright shrub, and its flowers look a bit like blue magnolias, but the petals are more translucent, like crystal, and they also emit a faint fluorescence at night.
Although the noon orchid is not rare, it is not easy to get a bouquet of flowers. First of all, as you can tell from the name, it only blooms at noon of the day, and it only blooms for ten minutes at a time before it withers. If you pick the flowers when they bloom, they can be kept for about an hour. If you use ice to keep them fresh, it can only be extended to one day at most.
There are reasons for this characteristic of Noon Orchid. First of all, the reproduction method of this plant relies heavily on a soldier-level monster called Pier Bee. Although the individual combat power of Pier bees is at the bottom among intermediate-level monsters, they cannot withstand large numbers, and they are similar to wasps in that they do not die from stinging people, so they are extremely brave in battle.
The venom of the Pier bee is not fatal, but it is very annoying because it causes a person to become swollen and unable to see anyone for a long time. Of course, if the amount is large, the throat will swell and people will suffocate to death.
However, this venom, which is extremely troublesome for animals, is necessary for the development of the fruit of Noon Orchid. The noon orchid is also a complete flower, and it is closed for pollination, so its flowers exist purely to obtain the venom of the Pier bee.
When the orchid blooms at noon, it will emit a fragrance that is fatally attractive to the Pier bees. The ten-minute flowering period is the Pier bee's lunch time. When feeding, Pier bees inject venom into the calyx, causing the ovary to rapidly develop into fruit.
Sometimes, if the venom at one time is not enough, the same flower will even grow and bloom again.
In addition, the noon orchid needs enough light, so it usually does not grow in places with taller vegetation. Therefore, Yi Liuling felt that it was strange to have noon orchids growing in the woods in the back mountains.
In short, if a person wants to pick noon orchids, he must brave the scorching noon sun, resist the ferocious attack of the Pier bees, and then deliver the flowers to his beloved in a short time. This way of tossing oneself has always been the favorite way for men and women in love to express their love.
Of course, the mortality rate is not low. For example, the reason why the Pierre bee is named is because a bard named Pierre went to pick flowers to express his love to the girl he loved and was stung to death. Not only that, he also broke the world record for the number of stings by a single person. Therefore, scholars obtained an extremely complete data report from his body and named this Warcraft Bee after him to commemorate him.
"This was transplanted by me." After Randy said, Yi Liuling looked at him with admiration.
Some people say that since Pier bees are so dangerous, why not transplant the shrubs before the flowers bloom? The answer is that the attack will be worse, because the flowers of the noon orchid are just a good meal for the Pier bee during the holidays, but the tree itself of the noon orchid is of great significance to the local ecological environment. .
The fruit that has absorbed a large amount of venom can relieve pain and stop bleeding. The sap obtained by chewing the branches can clear away heat and detoxify. The leaves of the noon orchid are used by many monsters to breed and prevent pregnancy. This effect seems to be related to its popularity. People think about love flowers.
Therefore, if someone is trying to pick flowers, only Pier bees will sting you. But if you want to dig out the Noon Orchid from the roots, you will have to face the wrath of the entire region.
Probably, only a guy like Randy who is strong enough can dig one back, right?
"So, why did you call me here? Aren't these flowers about to bloom?" Yi Liuling glanced at her watch and estimated that they would bloom in a few minutes. She turned around and asked, "I'm not a bee."
"Yes, the flowers are about to bloom," Randy said, "but Alessa-senpai is missing."
