Chapter 971 Framed?

"We can't let this go!"

At the northernmost part of the villa area in Yanzhong Base stands a villa covering an area of ​​over 2,000 square meters, which is also the largest villa in the area. The villa is luxuriously decorated, with gleaming tiled floors and huge crystal chandeliers that constantly sparkle. When the lights are turned on, the entire room is filled with twinkling stars.

The living room is very spacious, with a set of large, luxurious leather sofas placed in it, adding to the house's elegance.

However, the atmosphere in the villa was heavy. Seven or eight people sat on the sofa with furrowed brows, and one of them paced back and forth with his hands on his hips.

"Why don't you think of a solution?" he said anxiously when no one spoke.

“What can we do? Unless you can make Yuanmu Xia disappear,” said one of the people sitting on the left sofa.

"It's probably unlikely." One of the men sitting on the sofa shook his head in disappointment, recalling the previous failed assassination attempts. "Besides, Fang Yanlei and Han Junxiang have both gone to Yandong."

“Why not? No matter how powerful Yuanmu Xia is, she’s only at the fifth or sixth rank. Don’t forget we have a secret weapon,” said the person on the right.

"No, it's not the right time yet. If we expose ourselves now, it will affect our plans. Yuanmu Xia... it's not worth it." The middleman objected.

“This won’t do, that won’t do. Are we just going to let her swagger around like this? Be careful she doesn’t steal all those planters away,” the person standing said.

"Actually, there is a way." The person sitting in Changsha smiled.

"Brother Yun, what's the plan?"

"Think about it, what makes Yuanmu Xia have her current status? And why are we being hindered at every turn now?"

"Wood-based superpowers?"

"Yes and no! There are plenty of people who possess wood-type abilities."

"But those people are in our hands."

"Yes, ultimately, we can't control Yuanmu Xia, so how can we bring her under our control?"

"Kill Yuan Lei!" the standing man blurted out.

The person on the sofa, Yun Ge, rolled his eyes. "Do you think her current status is entirely because of Yuan Lei?" This method might have worked at first, but now that Yuan Muxia has done so much, she has long been valued by the Yan Zhong Base, recognized by the base's residents, and even loved.

"Um, what should I do?"

"Let's go back to the original question."

Is it vegetables?

“Yes!” Brother Yun nodded. “Although we don’t know why Yuanmu Xia’s production output was so high as soon as she awakened her superpower, it is undoubtedly an important reason why she was able to gain a foothold so quickly.”

"So we need to find a way to reduce her vegetable production?"

Yun couldn't help but roll his eyes. He regretted having such a bunch of useless teammates countless times.

They once had the opportunity to keep Yuanmu Xia at the breeding base, but because of their arrogance, they allowed such a powerful weapon to be left to languish outside.

"Then tell me how to reduce it?" he couldn't help but retort sarcastically.

"Uh..." Everyone was speechless.

He rolled his eyes again and continued, "Besides the large vegetable yield, another point is that it can reduce the activity of 'viruses' in the human body. This has been proven in the laboratory, and it is three times more effective than vegetables produced in cultivation bases."

It is precisely because of its effectiveness that those who ate the vegetables revered Yuanmu Xia as a deity.

Everyone looked at him, somewhat confused about what he was trying to say. Why was he praising his opponent?
Of course, Brother Yun didn't care about the looks from his incompetent teammates. He continued, "However, everyone has overlooked one thing: where are these vegetables grown?"

"Outside the city!"

“That’s right, it’s grown outdoors outside the city.” Brother Yun smiled slightly. “As we all know, planting is a very difficult thing after the apocalypse.”

"Not only do we have to carry out difficult breeding in the laboratory, but we also have to purify the soil, purify the water, and even control the amount of 'viruses' in the air."

"So, what exactly has Yuanmu Xia accomplished?"

"what?"

"Yuanmu Xia didn't do any of that." Everyone blinked, what did that mean? Yuanmu Xia indeed didn't do it, but didn't she still successfully cultivate, no, grow vegetables? So what does it matter whether she did it or not?
Upon seeing this, Brother Yun knew that his teammate had completely misunderstood him. So, he decided to cut to the chase and asked, "So how can we be sure that those vegetables are safe to eat? How can we be sure there are no hidden dangers?"

"Huh? But haven't we already checked them?" The results are even better than the vegetables they carefully cultivate at their breeding base.
She rolled her eyes for the third time today. "We did the inspection, but were the poor people inspected? Besides, even if they were inspected, how can you be sure the results are correct?"

"We still haven't figured out a way to eliminate the 'virus'!" Brother Yun sneered.

"So you framed her?" someone asked.

"What do you mean by framing? The problem is clearly with the vegetables. They seem to reduce the activity of the 'virus' in the body, but in reality, they are nutrients for the 'virus.' If you eat too much of them, they will mutate!" Brother Yun said calmly.

Everyone's eyes lit up. "We'll go arrange it right away."

"Yes, be more discreet."

"it is good."

……

"Quick, Fuyuan Supermarket has restocked with fresh vegetables."

Grandpa Li, who was weaving a rattan basket, quickly put down what he was doing, called out to the house, and then walked with trembling steps toward Fuyuan Supermarket.

More than an hour later, Grandpa Li struggled to walk out of the crowd. Before he even reached the alley, a figure suddenly darted out and knocked him down, scattering the lettuce he was holding all over the ground.

"Ouch!" Grandpa Li winced in pain.

"Excuse me, sir, are you alright?" The man quickly picked up the lettuce and carefully helped the old man up.

Despite the pain, Mr. Li said, "It feels like my leg is broken."

The man lowered his eyes, looking guilty. "Sir, I'm sorry, I have two hundred contribution points here. Please take them. I have other things to do."

As he spoke, he took out two hundred contribution points and stuffed them along with some vegetables into Grandpa Li's arms, then turned and ran away.

Grandpa Li's eyes widened, and he shouted angrily, "Where did this little bastard come from? Don't let me see you again!"

Just then, Mo Fengsheng, who had returned from grocery shopping with his daughter, saw Grandpa Li sitting on the ground and quickly went over to help him up. "Grandpa, how did you fall? Are you alright?"

Grandpa Li launched into another tirade of curses.

Upon hearing this, Mo Fengsheng asked, "That young man from just now?"

"you know?"

"No, he just rammed into me and Feifei like he was drunk. Luckily, I've been feeling much better lately, and I narrowly dodged it." Otherwise, they would probably be lying on the ground like the old man.

"Drunk? I think he's been thief." Old Li said bluntly.

Mo Fengsheng nodded. What Grandpa Li said made a lot of sense. Even if he wasn't a thief, he probably hadn't done anything good either.

"Sir, let me take you to the hospital."

"No, no need, just help me home to rest." Grandpa Li quickly waved his hand.

“But Grandpa Li, you’re injured,” Mo Feiyu said worriedly.

"It's alright, I'll just go back and eat something good. Look, I even managed to snag two pounds of lettuce today," Grandpa Li said cheerfully.

Mo Feiyu nodded, "Yes, lettuce is delicious, and it can also cure diseases."

Grandpa Li nodded.

The father and daughter helped Mr. Li home, and only went home after making sure he was alright.

"What bad luck! He doesn't even look where he's going. He might as well donate his eyes!" Just then, a burst of angry curses rang out from outside Grandpa Li's door.

Grandpa Li craned his neck to look outside, "Sister Zhao?"

"Brother Li, it's me. Oh dear, what happened to you? Why is your knee so swollen?" A thin woman walked into the house and was shocked to see Grandpa Li sitting in the chair.
