Chapter 902: poisonous fruit
"At the beginning of last year, your second sister-in-law bought a fruit forest. The fruit grew very well. When I ate peaches in summer, the big and red peaches were all rotten when I cut them open. Later, the pears, dates, and apples were all rotten. It’s the same situation. Some people say it’s a poisonous mountain. We’ve inquired about it. It was normal last year, but the fruit produced was much less. In fact, it’s not just last year, the fruit trees have decreased since the first two years. , The fruit growers sold it when they couldn’t support it.”
Su Hua talked about the strange things he encountered. He also asked a doctor to study, but he didn\'t come to any conclusion. The land can\'t be moved now. When Su Xiaolu came back, Su Hua wondered if Su Xiaolu could go and have a look. See if you can find the reason.
"I consulted several doctors, and they said that the soil quality is non-toxic after research, but they don\'t know the reason for the rotten fruit, and it\'s normal for the fruit trees to flourish. At first, I suspected that there was a monster, but I found it. I went to check, and there are no monsters there."
Su Hua is also depressed. The family is very rich now, and it doesn\'t matter if the orchard has no income, but it will be the family business in the future and must be passed on.
What can this piece of land do? Now that there is such a thing, it cannot be sold. Of course he wants to solve it.
"It\'s okay, I\'ll take a look these two days."
Su Xiaolu agreed with a smile.
Su Hua smiled and said, "Thank you Xiaolu, the second brother won\'t bother you to rest."
Su Xiaolu nodded, Su Hua got up and went back.
After Su Hua left, Mrs. Zhao came.
Mrs. Zhao smiled gently and said, "Little Lu, can mother come and sleep with you?"
Su Xiaolu stepped forward and hugged Mrs. Zhao, she took a deep breath: "Of course, I miss my mother so much, my mother smells good."
Zhao\'s heart warmed up, and all the tension disappeared.
The two of them slept together, and Zhao Shi gently asked some household questions, and Su Xiaolu answered carefully, because in this way, Zhao Shi could feel more at ease.
Su Sanlang and Mrs. Zhao are in their old age, Su Xiaolu hopes that they can spend their old age peacefully and don\'t worry about them.
Su Kuo said that the road to cultivation will be very, very long. Ordinary people like Mrs. Zhao and Su Sanlang who cannot practice will have better health and less suffering from illnesses.
She is already a cultivator, and at the golden elixir stage, she can live at least two hundred years, and she can spend these decades with her parents well.
Su Xiaolu chose to settle down and cultivate her mind, that\'s what she meant.
Su Xiaolu leaned on Zhao Shi\'s arms, unknowingly, it has been thirty years since she came to this world, and she didn\'t know how much longer her mother-daughter relationship with Zhao Shi would last.
Said she settled down, but she didn\'t actually stay with Mrs. Zhao, she just didn\'t take risks anymore.
Early the next morning, Mrs. Zhao woke up gently.
As in previous years, she cooks Su Xiaolu her favorite meals.
When Mrs. Zhao got up, Su Xiaolu woke up, but she smiled and didn\'t get up, she was lazy on the bed.
When the rice was ready, Su Hanzhen came to wake Su Xiaolu up.
"Sister-in-law, grandma has cooked a lot of dishes you like."
Su Hanzhen counted on her fingers, her eyes sparkling.
Su Xiaolu couldn\'t help swallowing, and got up immediately.
After dinner, Su Xiaolu went to find Chen Shi and asked him to take her to see Guolin.
Su Xiaolu looked at the unsmiling Chen Shi, and she asked, "Xiao Shi, did uncle and aunt promise you a kiss?"
Chen Shi is also in his twenties. Now, he is actually considered older.
Su Xiaolu remembered that he was still the one who delivered the baby, and immediately sighed that time passed too fast.
Chen Shi\'s face turned hot, and he nodded embarrassingly: "We said we\'re kissing each other, it\'s already settled."
Su Xiaolu asked again with concern, and Chen Shi answered politely, like a junior facing an elder.
Gradually, I arrived at the fruit forest. In winter, the fruit trees are all bare.
A layer of fallen leaves accumulated on the ground.
Su Xiaolu broke off a branch at random. The broken part was green, and the tree was alive.
Chen Shi said: "The trees are all alive, but I don\'t know why the fruit is all rotten, and the peel is very good. At first, when I saw such a good fruit, the fruit seller even made a fuss with my second brother, saying that he was losing money. Afterwards, something went wrong with the fruit, and he ran away without a trace, fearing that there would be trouble."
"The land looks healthy, but the second brother is worried that it will all rot if it ends this year."
Chen Shi accompanied Su Xiaolu to inspect the fruit forest while talking.
Su Xiaolu looked around, the distance between the fruit trees was sufficient, and the land was not rocky. If the land is not good, the geology will harden.
There is no poisonous fog, no miasma, but the fruits are all rotten.
Su Xiaolu saw that there were still some dried fruits on the jujube tree, so she picked them off. The jujube looked fine, and the skin had already dried up.
Chen Shi sighed: "This is not finished. It looks good on the outside, but it\'s rotten inside."
He broke open one, and the inside of the fruit was already moldy. After breaking it, there was still a rotten smell.
Su Xiaolu sniffed it close to the tip of her nose, and she took out the silver needle and tried it.
The fruit is non-toxic, but such fruit cannot be eaten at all.
There are still a few frozen black pears on the pear tree. Su Xiaolu picks them off and sees that the skin has turned black, which is caused by natural frost. The skin is not rotten. It is not difficult to see that if it is a good fruit, it must be delicious.
But she squeezed it open with a little force, and a foul smell came out from inside, and stinky water flowed out. Su Xiaolu still tried it with a silver needle, and it was not poisonous.
That\'s a little strange.
Arrived at the top of the mountain, Su Xiaolu looked around and saw a few families living at the foot of the mountain, Su Xiaolu couldn\'t help asking: "Who are they living there?"
Chen Shi replied: "It\'s the villagers here, and they also hire long-term laborers to help manage the fruit forest. They live here, and they also raise a few hounds to patrol the mountains to prevent theft."
When the fruit forest became like this, those families were also worried. Chen Shi brought Su Xiaolu here, and they all pretended to be busy outside the yard, but actually kept paying attention to the fruit forest on the mountain.
"Second brother was afraid that it was a monster, but I asked someone to see it. There was no fluctuation in the power of the monster, and everyone was living normally."
Chen Shi was distressed when he talked about it. In recent years, the appearance of demons and ghosts is not uncommon, but no matter whether it is a human being, a demon or a ghost, as long as the reason is found, it is easy to solve it.
He believes that the fruit forest is the same, but what is the reason?
It\'s very sad to see so many good fruits with rotten cores.
"I will take some fruits, trees and soil to go back and have a look, and go to those families to see."
After Su Xiaolu finished speaking, he collected a few fruits, broke off two branches, took some soil and put it into the space.
She went down the mountain with Chen Shi, and Su Xiaolu walked towards the place where there were households. Su Hua must have checked these households, so she also walked around to see if she could find anything.
"It\'s Brother Chen, come in and have a meal." When Chen Shi and Su Xiaolu walked in, the shy man immediately greeted him with a warm smile, and his two sons followed him with smiles. , is the old wife and daughter-in-law.
