The Zerg climate is indeed distinct in four seasons. It's only been a short time since December, and the temperature has already begun to show signs of rising. Chu Yang reclaimed the empty space in the backyard and asked Dean Li for a lot of planting materials and some fruit trees.
"Your Excellency Chu Yang, would it be convenient for us to come over and learn about your planting process?"
On the other end of the computer, Dean Li asked somewhat anxiously. He had originally planned to find another opportunity to go and study it, but he did not expect Chu Yang to come to him personally.
"Yes, I will start planting at home tomorrow. Today I will just turn over the soil."
Upon hearing that Chu Yang was reclaiming the wasteland, Dean Li exclaimed excitedly.
"I'll prepare the things right away and send them over. Your Excellency Chu Yang, please wait for us to arrive before you start. Please wait for me."
After hanging up, he immediately instructed the three students to prepare what Chu Yang needed, and then took them in a flying vehicle to Chu Yang's home at top speed.
Before long, the group of four insects arrived. When they got off the aircraft, Mu Yong was carrying a large bag of seeds, while Zhang Lang and Wu Ge were also carrying some saplings.
"Dean Li, I'm so sorry to trouble you to deliver it in person."
"Hehe, no trouble at all. On the contrary, I should thank you for giving us the opportunity to witness your planting techniques."
After exchanging pleasantries for a short while, Chu Yang led them to the backyard. Inside the glass greenhouse, the chives had sprouted new leaves, and the other vegetable patches were almost half empty.
Wow~ I didn't see that wrong, did I?
Mu Yong rubbed his eyes, somewhat unable to believe what he was seeing. Although his teacher had said that this male insect could grow vegetables, he was still greatly shocked when he saw it with his own eyes.
While Mu Yong was still standing there, filled with emotion, Zhang Lang and Wu Ge had already taken action. Just like Dean Li's reaction last time, they squatted down and picked up the soil to examine it carefully.
"Please don't take offense, Lord Chu Yang. These three are my students. I brought them here today to conduct some research together."
"It's alright, I'm honored to be able to help you."
So Chu Yang continued to cultivate the open space next to him. Just like last time, he buried some meat bones, eggshells and other kitchen scraps, sprinkled some fertilizer, and filled the cultivated soil back in, but did not compact it.
Dean Li and his students recorded the entire process with recording equipment. They tried to replicate every step Chu Yang took and were full of anticipation for this planting.
After the soil was prepared, it was time to plant the seeds. Three or four seeds were placed in each hole, and after all the seeds were planted, a little water was added.
"Don't water too much, otherwise the seeds will get moldy from being too damp. After planting them, wait a few days for it to rain, and they should sprout soon."
Chu Yang, holding a watering can, stood with his back to the row of insects and said, "These things are so simple, so why can't the insects of the insect race grow?" He had thought about this question before, but only superficially, since it had nothing to do with his own interests.
After they finished planting, Chu Yang invited them to his home for a cup of tea and brought out a plate of frozen roasted chestnuts.
"These are chestnuts I picked in the mountains last year. There were too many, so I froze them. Try them, they taste cool and sweet."
Dean Li appeared quite calm, but his three students were very reserved, as this was the first time a male insect had ever hosted them.
Perhaps noticing their reserved demeanor, Chu Yang smiled and grabbed a handful of insects for each of them.
"Try it, it's delicious."
After exchanging glances with the teacher, I dared to put one in my mouth. The ice chestnut was cool to the touch, and because it had been thawed beforehand, it wasn't hard; it was slightly soft, chewy, and sweet.
"Delicious! I never expected that chestnuts, which even wild animals on the mountain wouldn't eat, would taste so good."
Zhang Lang blinked his bright eyes excitedly and couldn't resist eating another one. The other two insects had the same reaction. Eating iced chestnuts and drinking warm green tea was truly enjoyable, and they felt that their mental state had relaxed a lot.
Looking at his three students who seemed completely unsophisticated, Dean Li curled his lip in disdain. "Eating cold food and drinking hot food, aren't you afraid of getting a stomachache later?"
"Your Excellency Chu Yang, if the vegetables you planted this time sprout, can we still come over to continue our research?"
"Sure, no problem. You can come anytime you want to do research, I can handle it."
Chu Yang answered quickly because the seeds and saplings were given away for free this time; they didn't charge any money.
Half a month later, the Zerg welcomed their first spring rain of the year. Chu Yang had to admire the wisdom of his ancestors; the spring rain truly nourished everything silently.
When I woke up this morning, I noticed that the leaves of the plants in the yard still had tiny water droplets clinging to them after the rain. The spring rain wasn't heavy; it only lightly dampened the ground. Some seeds in the backyard had also started to sprout one after another after this spring rain.
Upon receiving the news, Dean Li led a group of students to observe the field early in the morning. Looking at the tender shoots that had just emerged from the ground, four adult insects were half-lying on the ground, turning their heads to look at the tiny green dots. Their eyes welled up with tears.
"Teacher, are you saying that Lord Chu Yang is a god of our insect race? If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed that insects could grow vegetables in the soil."
Mu Yong stared at the tender sprouts in the ground and talked to himself. Countless predecessors had studied planting generation after generation, and without exception, they all concluded that the insect race could never have any insects that could grow plants in the soil.
Although science and technology have made great progress, we can only achieve this through scientific and technological means.
"I don't know if Lord Chu Yang is the Insect God, but I do know that once we succeed in our research, it will be a milestone in the history of the Insect race, and Lord Chu Yang will become a hero that is unprecedented and will never be surpassed."
Dean Li, with tears in his eyes, looked at Chu Yang harvesting chives in the glass greenhouse. Suddenly, a brilliant idea struck him, his eyes narrowed sharply, and he shouted excitedly.
"I have a new research idea."
The three students watched curiously as their teacher excitedly ran towards the glass greenhouse, and then quickly followed.
"Lord Chu Yang, could you please give me some of the seeds from this place?"
Chu Yang, who was cutting chives, looked up at the vegetable garden behind him. Most of the crops were seedless, and only the green beans had turned into soybeans because they hadn't been eaten in time.
"Sure, take whatever you think is helpful to your research."
After receiving confirmation, Dean Li, along with his three students, excitedly collected all the seeds they could from the glass greenhouse.
The experimental plots we worked on last time all got moldy again because of the rain. So now the only option left is to try the seeds that Chu Yang planted.
Chu Yang likes spring, summer and autumn, but doesn't like winter. To be precise, he doesn't like cold weather because when he was a child, it was cold and he didn't have any thick clothes to wear. He could only put on thin clothes one by one, and he was often ridiculed by other classmates for this.
The insectoid race experiences distinct seasons. Spring has just arrived, and one feels refreshed and full of energy. Chu Yang stood in the courtyard, looking up at the distant mountains. In another month or two, the wild vegetables on the mountains should be in season.
No insects here would think that wild vegetables are edible, so there are no rivals here. For this reason, Chu Yang specially bought new equipment for digging wild vegetables in the mountains, and also made an appointment with Wang Xingyu to come together.
Wang Xingyu wasn't really keen on going, but when he remembered Chu Yang saying that those wild vegetables could be used to make many dishes that tasted like home, he immediately agreed.
