In the blink of an eye, Fang Xiong has been back for five days, and today is the day that Fang Xiong will deliver books to Zhang Sui.

In the morning, Zhang Sui didn't go to school. He got up and did several breathing exercises. He was sweating profusely, and took a shower with cold water from the yard, which made him shiver all over.

If it hadn't been for the fact that he hadn't stopped practicing the breathing method during this period, Zhang Sui wouldn't have dared to do so. Unexpectedly, after just a few days of practice, the effect of the exercise method was clearly reflected. A praise: The talent is amazing!

"Ah-choo! Ah-choo! Ah-choo!" Zhang Sui was bragging in his heart, but his body shook, and he sneezed three times in a row, with snot and tears coming out!Zhang Sui hurried back to the room to dry himself off, put on his clothes, and did a set of breathing exercises to warm up.

"Don't get the cold anymore, or your brain will not be able to bear it if you wear personal memories!" Zhang Sui thought.I also regret my previous recklessness.

Go straight to the canteen. At this time, there is no one in the canteen, and the students have all gone to class.Only the two masters were there to drink tea and rest.After Zhang Sui went in, he first asked the cook for a bowl of ginger soup, and after drinking it, he brought some food and prepared to find a place to sit down.

A master who was drinking tea waved to him. Zhang Sui saw that it was the master he met when he came to the dining hall on the first day. He picked up the meal and walked over to salute the two masters.

The master asked: "Why didn't you go to the school today?" Zhang Sui replied: "Mr. Shuqian has given the students a list of books these days and asked me to study by myself. He will do the assessment when the time comes."

The master nodded and said, "I see. My name is Zhou Li, and I teach agronomy in the ethnology department. I heard Mr. Shu Qian mention you many times, saying that you have a photographic memory and you have your own opinions."

Zhang Sui cupped his hands with a smile and said, "Mr. Zhou is good, Mr. Shu was absurd at that time!"

Zhou Su waved his hands and said, "You don't have to be humble. Mr. Shu's temper is not just praised by anyone. If he can catch his eyes, it must be something good."

Zhang Sui smiled and said nothing.The short and fat wife next to him smiled and said: "This kid really has some knowledge. I saw him looking for six or seven books in the Library Pavilion a few days ago, and he finished reading them in one day. At first I thought he was just general. Look, but later found that his records on a piece of paper, every sentence is the key point in those books, so I know that he really read it."

Zhang Sui looked at the master, and Zhou Su introduced, "This is my good friend, and also Qi Dai of Zangshuge, who is in charge of everything."

Zhang Sui saluted quickly.I thought to myself: "Hey, I'm still a colleague!"

Zhou Su introduced with a smile: "Don't look at him as a manager, but he is a teacher of Mr. Meng. If you talk about it from Mr. Meng, you should call him senior brother."

Hearing the words, Zhang Sui quickly stood up and saluted, and said, "It turns out that the elder brother is face to face, so I'm being rude!"

Qi Dai took his arm and sat down, and said: "You don't need to be polite, I only knew about your situation when I heard the teacher said a few days ago that he was going to accept a junior apprentice. A few days ago, I saw that you were reading hard and didn't say hello to you. "

With this relationship, several people are much closer.

Qi Dai asked: "I saw that what my junior brother read in Zangshu Pavilion are all books of strange records, are you interested in these?"

Zhang Sui said with a smile: "I originally studied mountain and river geography and historical research from Mr. Meng and Mr. Shu, in order to help me see the vast world and appreciate the scenery of thousands of miles. Those strange books are also my own. If you are interested, you may meet in the future, so let’s learn about it in advance.”

Qi Dai sighed: "Junior brother has great ambition!"

Zhou Su heard the words and said: "If you want to talk about strange things, they are actually not just those recorded in the books. In fact, there are quite a few things happening around us in recent years."

Upon hearing the words, Zhang Sui quickly asked, "I wonder if Mr. Zhou can let the students learn more."

Zhou Su stroked the goatee on his chin, and said, "I teach agronomy, and you must know that the most important thing about agronomy is practice. In the past few years, I have come into contact with many strange poultry and crops. Like a hen that gave birth to glowing eggs, Beef cattle that are twice as big as normal can grow fruit-flavored rice, red dates that are the size of oranges, and so on. It’s just that these are special cases, and it’s a pity that they can’t reproduce!”

Zhang Sui asked, "When did this happen?"

Zhou Su thought for a while and said, "Actually, it has existed for a long time, but it has appeared more frequently in recent years. It is a pity that these are irregular. Otherwise, those high-yielding plants can benefit the common people."

Qi Dai also nodded in agreement.

Zhang Sui thought for a while and asked Zhou Su, "I wonder if there are any variations in the practice of our ethnology? Can you give me some insight?"

Zhou Su smiled and said, "Why not? There is a mutated jujube tree in the place where we practice, which is the one I said can grow to the size of an orange. If you want to see it, I can take you there to see it and learn a lot."

Zhang Sui was overjoyed when he heard the words, and said, "Then trouble Mr. Zhou!"

Zhou Su waved his hand and said, "It's a trivial matter. It's rare that you are interested in agriculture. You finish your breakfast first. I'll take you there."

Zhang Sui said in his heart, "I'm not interested in agronomy, but in mutated things."

Zhang Sui ate the contents of the plate in a few mouthfuls and cleaned up properly.Qi Dai greeted him, took his leave and went back to Zangshu Pavilion.

Zhou Su led Zhang Sui all the way to the place where ethnology is practiced in agriculture.This is outside the ethnology, next to a farm next to it.The scope is not large, only five or six miles in radius, but there are many kinds of crops inside.

Zhang Sui looked at it, and there were a dozen or so species he knew, and dozens of other crops that he had never seen before.There is also a breeding place in the distance, and the sounds of various animals come from it.Many students in short shirts are recording something on the edge of the farmland under the leadership of several gentlemen.

When a team leader saw Zhou Su, he greeted him from a distance, and Zhou Su responded.

Zhou Su led Zhang Sui through the farmland and the breeding place, and came to a mountain forest. This forest was divided into dozens of blocks, and each block was planted with a separate kind of fruit tree.The middle is separated by a curtain, which is probably to ensure the pure problem of pollination of various fruit trees.

In the innermost part, it is surrounded by curtains, and there is only one jujube tree inside.The jujube tree is not very big, only the thickness of the mouth of a bowl, about two feet high.The strange thing is that it is late autumn now, and the leaves of the surrounding trees are basically gone. Only this jujube tree is still luxuriant, and there are still many jujubes hanging between the branches and leaves, which are real jujubes , each one is the size of an orange, and the color is ruddy, which is different from the color of ordinary dates. This red is a kind of bright red, which looks full of water, and each one is like a small lantern, which is really gratifying to look at.

Feeling a little excited, Zhang Sui stepped forward and held the tree trunk with his right hand, but to his disappointment, there was no response from his right hand.

"Is the mutation of this jujube tree not related to the two forces? Is it really a natural mutation?" Zhang Sui thought to himself.

Zhou Su smiled and said: "How is it? Isn't it amazing? It's a pity that there is only this one, and the jujube tree cultivated with its jujube pit is an ordinary jujube."

Zhang Sui's heart moved, and he asked, "Is there any difference between the jujube it bears and the ordinary jujube?"

Zhou Su said: "There are some differences. The jujubes produced by this jujube tree taste very sweet. If you use it to make wine, there is still a certain effect on rheumatic bone disease, but it is also limited. One thing is very miraculous. If this kind of jujube is stored in a jade box, even if it is stored for a year or two, it will be the same as fresh when taken out."

Zhang Sui asked in surprise, "Who discovered this? It was kept in a jade box?"

Old Zhou Su blushed, and said: "A friend had a birthday two years ago. At that time, he was in short supply, so I found a jade box and put a jujube in it to give him. But when I met him this year, he mentioned to me This matter, I thought it was some treasure, and I only knew about it when I was invited to drink."

Zhang Sui chuckled, and asked, "So this date is not so precious, but rather novel, isn't it?"

Zhou Su nodded helplessly and said, "Yes, if this variety can be bred, it will be very useful, but it's a pity that there is only one such tree."

Zhang Sui said, "Can you give me a taste?"

Zhou Su smiled and said: "Of course, we have kept a lot of this kind of dates, and they are all reserved for planting dates. We will see if we can try our luck and grow another one. If the second son wants to taste it, I will go and tell the manager."

Zhang Sui quickly thanked him.

Zhou Su ordered the people who took care of the forest here to invite the steward, and the steward came over after a while.It was the person who greeted Zhou Su just now. He had dark and rough skin, big hands and feet, and his trouser legs were covered with mud.

Zhou Su introduced: "This is Bi Mo, who is in charge of farming. Bi is in charge." He introduced to Bi Mo: "This is Zhang Sui, Mr. Zhang, the younger brother of the head of the Zhang family."

Bi Mo hurriedly saluted and said, "I've met the second son!" Zhang Sui returned the salute and said, "You're welcome to manage Bi, just call me Zhang Sui."

Zhou Su said: "I brought the second son over to see this mutated jujube tree, and I want to taste the taste of this jujube. I don't know if it will work."

Bi Mo said with a smile: "There's nothing wrong with it, and it's not something too precious. As long as the second son doesn't cut down the jujube tree and take it away, he can eat as much as he wants."

The three of them laughed, and Zhang Sui said, "Then thank you, Steward Bi, I'll try it first, and if it's delicious, I'll bring some back to the elders at home to taste."

Bi Mo praised: "My lord is filial." So he ordered the person in charge of the tree to bring a long pole, Bi Mo went down with two poles, and directly dropped a dozen jujubes.

Zhang Sui repeatedly stopped Bi Mo, who was still swinging, and said, "Enough is enough, let's leave some seeds for it, maybe some of them can grow new products."

Bi Mo ordered someone to wash the jujube, put it in a clean cloth bag, and handed it to Zhang Sui.

Zhang Sui picked up a jujube and looked at it carefully. The jujube was red and attractive, but the fragrance was very weak, and it was different from ordinary jujubes.Zhang Sui swallowed it down, chewed it a few times, his mouth was full of sweetness, swallowed it into his stomach, and suddenly felt a clear and spiritual energy rising from his stomach, which quickly spread to the internal organs.

Zhang Sui's spirit lifted, and he felt that a power different from the power of merit and the power of doom was absorbed by him. He didn't know what effect it had for the time being, but Zhang Sui's intuition told him that this power was very important.

After Zhang Sui finished eating the jujube in his hand, he felt that this kind of power was entrenched between his internal organs, and he obviously felt that his body welcomed this kind of power, "Let's study it after we get back!" Zhang Sui thought.

Seeing that Zhang Sui ate the jujube, Zhou Su remained silent, as if savoring it carefully.He smiled and asked, "How is it? It tastes good, right?"

Zhang Sui nodded and said, "Yes, it's really delicious. I don't know how many people have tasted this kind of jujube?"

Bi Mo said: "Not many people have eaten it, and many of them have been preserved. The main reason is to keep the seeds. Only a few gentlemen from our agricultural department tasted it, and took some for Mr. Meng to soak in wine."

Zhang Sui asked, "Do you have any other feelings after eating?"

Zhou Su and Bi Mo looked at each other, not understanding Zhang Sui's meaning, Zhou Su said: "I don't feel anything, I just think it's sweet and delicious. Does your lord feel any discomfort after eating it?"

Zhou Su and Bi Mo became anxious, for fear that something would happen to Zhang Sui after eating. After all, everyone's body is different, some people can eat some things, and some people can't.This is the second son of the Zhang family. If something goes wrong, they are inseparable from each other.

Seeing the nervousness of the two, Zhang Sui hurriedly said: "You don't need to be nervous. I feel refreshed and very comfortable after eating the jujube. I want to ask if you feel the same way."

The two breathed a sigh of relief, and Bi Mo said: "I don't have any other feelings. I guess it's the first time the young master has eaten this kind of jujube, and I have some reactions in my heart. But it is said that the jujube soaked in wine has certain medicinal effects, and I don't know the truth. Fake."

Zhou Su said: "There is such a thing. Mr. Meng sent a jar of wine soaked with jujube to his classmate. The gentleman knew the art of Qihuang, and later told Mr. Meng the effect. When we chatted with Mr. Meng Mr. Meng mentioned it."

Everyone was stunned.

Seeing that it was getting late, Zhang Sui was worried that Fang Xiong would be waiting for him in the academy.So I greeted Bi Mo and thanked him for the jujube.Then I returned to the School of Ethnology with Zhou Su
