Farming in overlapping worlds

Linze held the head of Xihua, which was as big as his own head, and stood there hesitantly, "Can you guarantee that this is not a living thing?" Legends are legends after all, who knows what this thing is.

Daqing climbed onto Linze's shoulder again, "Of course not, only the steamed Huatouzi can make a sound. The ones in your hands are already cooked, how can you still be alive?"

"What's the reason?" Linze put away the fear in his heart a little bit, and was a little more eager to explore this strange plant that did the opposite.

"That's a long story..." Daqing looked like he was preparing for a long speech.

Lin Ze interrupted: "Let's make a long story short!"

Daqing was a little unhappy that his desire for performance was not satisfied, but he briefly said, "Huatouzi originated from a legend. According to the rumor, the Yan Lingniao cut off the heads of the dark spirits and dropped their heads to the ground. The soul is sealed in the head to become a flower head."

"What does this have to do with Huatouzi's crowing when it's ripe?" Linze pinched the Huatouzi again while speaking, and Huatouzi let out an "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" sound, which was a bit like a screaming chicken.

"Didn't I finish this?" Daqing continued to explain, "You also know that dark spirits are not good things. They will not only attack ordinary creatures, but also you humans. There is a period of time when dark spirits appear in the spirit world. Many creatures were killed because of this. In order to retaliate against the persecution of other creatures by the dark spirits, the bird who is good at cursing decided to let the dark spirits have a taste of being eaten by creatures, and sealed the souls of the dark spirits in the In the heads of the dark spirits, they become the current flower heads. When the flower heads are steamed and can be eaten by other creatures, the souls inside will wake up, so that they can watch themselves being eaten and feel it clearly. The fear of other creatures when they are persecuted. After being eaten, the soul of the dark spirit will grow back into a flower head."

"This explanation is very scientific." Lin Ze felt that after listening to this description, he couldn't say anything more. What kind of dark spirit, what kind of soul, it made people lose their appetite. He didn't ask what the dark spirit was, guessing it should be It's some kind of mythical creature.

Daqing saw that the heat of Huatouzi dissipated faster and faster, and hurriedly urged: "Eat it while it's hot, Huatouzi won't taste good when it's cold."

Linze was still hungry, so he opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.The screaming sound made him feel that it was a living thing. He could eat something, but he couldn’t eat a living thing. "Are you sure it's a plant? What if it's still alive?" A stone that can run, is it really a stone just because it looks like a stone?

Daqing retorted: "It's just moving."

Lin Ze added: "It can still bark!"

"Isn't it just that it can move and scream? I heard that your human world also eats those tentacle monster sashimi, and it can also move, and you eat it with great relish." Daqing said indifferently.

"You know quite a lot?" Linze thought for a while, and corrected: "You mean octopus sashimi, I have never eaten octopus sashimi!"

"That's right, before the passage between the two worlds was closed, I was also in the human world." Daqing was quite proud of this, and at the end he didn't forget to urge Linze to eat quickly.

Lin Ze stared at the head of Xihua who was still trembling in front of him, and suddenly felt that this was a bit like a "funny" expression without eyes.

Thinking about it this way, the terrifying scene suddenly felt a lot of joy.

When Linze was about to open his mouth to take a bite, he heard the commotion from the square.

Daqing came back to his senses and shouted: "The passage is open!"

Linze was interrupted from eating, but heaved a sigh of relief. He shifted his attention to the white vortex. The vortex gradually receded, revealing a black hole in the middle. The black swallowed the white vortex little by little, revealing a black hole. .

A shadow flashed at the mouth of the black hole, and the shape of the shadow did not look like a human being.

As time passed, the true appearance of the shadow was revealed, and it was a Chinese pastoral dog.

The moment he saw the earth dog, Linze staggered and blurted out: "Wangcai!"

That's right, the first one to come out of the passage was not a human being, but the only native dog in the south of Zhujingwan Village——Wangcai!

The distance between Linze and the dog was too far, and Wangcai obviously didn't hear what it was shouting just now, so he shook his head, throwing the head out of the double image, and then there were three heads on the dog's neck.

Linze almost thought he was dazzled, so he blinked. Wangcai strode towards the square with three dog-headed males on his back. Behind him was an old man pushing a tricycle, and humans appeared one after another.

There were too many people, and Wangcai disappeared in the crowd.

People either carried loads or pushed carts, and began to put their things on the square.

The square became lively in an instant, and all kinds of creatures flocked to the square with their own things.

Some of the items on display are daily necessities in the human world, and some are some vegetables and fruits, but it is unclear which class they belong to.

Daqing stretched his head to look at the crowd in the square, and urged, "Aren't you looking for humans? Why don't you go there?"

Linze searched for Wangcai's figure, and replied after hearing Daqing's question: "Everyone is busy now, how could you have time to talk to me?"

"Then I'll go there first, maybe I can do some more business today." As a translator, Daqing naturally wants to help with translation at this time.

A strand of Daqing's butt stuck to Linze's clothes, and jumped into the pile of creatures.

When Linze pulled the silk thread up again, Daqing was no longer there.

Linze was very suspicious that the reason why Daqing was so eager to let him go to the square was because he wanted to get the modern walking tools.

But he also wanted to find Wangcai, so he also walked to the square, holding the head of Xihua who was screaming "ahhh" in his arms.

Since Wangcai will appear here, maybe he can go back with Wangcai.

"Gee-chi-"

A group of uninvited guests surrounded him.

The egg yolk chickens sniffed Lin Ze, probably smelling the same kind of smell, and rubbed against his feet.

Lin Ze didn't know where to put his feet.

"Wang Wang!"

"Ugh-"

"Ow—"

There was a lot of noise in the market, and Linze discerned the direction of the dog barking from the various sounds filling his eardrums, and finally saw Wangcai with three dog heads in various biomes.

It's just that he was blocked by egg yolk chickens, Linze was a little bit hard to move, "Can't you let me go first?"

An egg yolk chicken flapped its wings and jumped up, and hugged Linze's thigh.

I didn't expect that Linze would have the opportunity to be hugged on the thigh like You Ke, which is really a great honor (not).

No need to think about it, this group of egg yolk chickens must be coveting the flower boy in his arms, and he paid for this flower boss on credit, how could it be used to feed the chickens!

"Gee-chi-"

Just when Linze was thinking hard to find a solution, a small green figure passed between the egg yolk chickens, and immediately attracted the attention of the egg yolk chickens.

A grasshopper stopped about three meters away from Linze.

Perhaps because of the instinctive pursuit of bugs, the egg yolk chickens stopped the moment the grasshopper appeared, and the egg yolk chicken closest to the grasshopper twisted its round body and was about to gnaw, but was easily avoided by the grasshopper.

When the other egg yolk chickens saw this, they were immediately aroused to be competitive, and rushed forward, ignoring Linze for a while.

The egg yolk chickens around Linze scattered, and he also regained the ability to move freely.

The grasshopper was still able to do a job well under the chase of many egg yolk chickens, and it jumped more than ten meters away in a blink of an eye.

Lin Ze no longer hesitated, turned around and walked towards Wangcai.

Although there is no egg yolk chicken, there are still many other creatures around. In order to avoid collisions with other creatures, it took a lot of time to come to Wangcai.

"Wangcai!" Linze walked up to Wangcai who was holding three heads: "Why are you here? Did you come from the passage?"

The dog head in the middle saw Lin Ze, grinned his teeth, and barked fiercely at him a few times.

Already accustomed to being fierce, Linze remained unmoved, and asked again: "Do you know how to get back?"

The dog head on the right has a cold face, and doesn't respond to Lin Ze's questions at all, like a noble dog queen.

Linze stepped up: "You take me back, how about I buy you a canned dog?"

When the dog head on the left heard that Linze was going to give it canned dog food after returning home, he immediately smiled and narrowed his eyes, sticking out his tongue and whining in favor of Linze.

Very good, this is very prosperous.

Linze never knew why Wangcai was so good at acting, he always had a different face every time he saw it, now he finally knows the reason, this dog originally had three heads.

After whining twice, the dog on the left opened its mouth and bit Linze's trouser leg, pulling him in one direction.

Without hesitation, Linze followed Wangcai into the biome.

Shuttle among the creatures, Linze had to lower his head and pay attention to his feet, so as not to lose Wangcai after him or accidentally trample some small creatures to death.

Two minutes later, Linze clearly felt that the surrounding space was much larger, and a grasshopper reappeared, hopping away from Linze's feet.

Then a few more grasshoppers appeared in his field of vision, and in a blink of an eye, dozens of grasshoppers were bouncing back and forth nearby.

This is not a bush, where are there so many grasshoppers?

When he was puzzled, a green grasshopper jumped and jumped directly onto the head of Xihua that Linze was holding.

Lin Ze was startled when he saw the appearance of the grasshopper. The grasshopper in front of him was vivid, but it was not a real grasshopper. Its body was covered with traces of cross-weaving. It was obviously a grasshopper with exquisite handicraft.

He stared, always thinking that the appearance of this straw-woven grasshopper was the handicraft of Seventh Uncle.

The straw grasshopper just stayed on top of Xihua's head for a few seconds, then jumped to the ground again, and jumped away.

Lin Ze's eyes followed the straw grasshoppers, and he accurately recognized the one that just stood in front of his eyes among a bunch of hopping grasshoppers.

After jumping for a certain distance, the straw grasshopper jumped directly onto a straw mat, just like a real straw grasshopper, and did not move.

By the time he realized it, he was already standing in front of this straw mat stall filled with various straw toys and bamboo products.

"Five children?"

Linze heard a familiar voice, and looked at the stall owner. The stall owner wearing a big straw hat and sitting on a small bench weaving bamboo baskets in front of him turned out to be Uncle Qi.

"Seventh Uncle!" Linze exclaimed in surprise, with Seventh Uncle here, he would definitely be able to take him back.

"Wu Wazi, why are you here?" Aunt Lin next door found Lin Ze and asked curiously, "Why don't I remember that you followed us here today? Didn't you go to the city to find a job?"

Aunt Lin has been delivering meals to Jun Yan and Jun Yan for a few days. A few days ago, Lin Ze said that he was going to the city to find a job, but he disappeared after that. Meet people here.

Aunt Lin was sitting next door, with two baskets of white radishes in front of her.

He can now be sure that the white radish in Aunt Lin's house is the seaweed that grows in the overlapping world.When she was in the human world, Aunt Lin would cut off the radish leaves under cover, but the two baskets of radishes now have seaweed-like leaves.

Uncle Lin was holding two radishes in his hand, and was making a deal with a creature from the spirit world.

Linze blinked, and didn't know how to explain for a while, "I didn't come here today, I came here with it, I don't know what happened, after falling into his mouth, I came here .” He pointed to the whale following in mid-air.

Aunt Lin obviously didn't know this big whale, but she still knew a little about Linze's affairs. Seeing that Linze was still in a daze, she understood that he didn't know much about the situation, so she didn't ask any more questions.

Linze looked around and found that several neighbors from the south of the village were here.

Just then, his stomach growled.

Aunt Lin took out a radish from the basket, "Are you hungry? Do you want some radish to fill your belly?"

"Yes!" Linze looked forward to normal food, and his eyes almost glowed green.

Aunt Lin helped him peel the radish and handed it to him.

Linze was a little embarrassed holding a Xihua leader who was screaming "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh", looking left and right, not knowing where to put it.

Uncle Qi said: "Where is the head of Xihua? Put it on the mat, and I will cut it up for you."

Lin Ze didn't understand this, so he was right to hear what Uncle Qi said.

Head Xihua was placed on a straw mat with banana leaves on the ground.

Uncle Seven took over a watermelon knife from Aunt Lin, as if the Xihua head in front of him was a watermelon, he cut it neatly, and Xihua head was cut in half. And stop.

The inside of Xihua head is also yellow, and there are no miscellaneous things in Linze's imagination, such as the brain, intestines, etc...

Seventh Uncle held the knife again and chopped off the cut Xihua head into eight pieces, and then cut them into small pieces.

The heads of Xihua were scattered on the banana leaves, there was no strange sound, and it looked like food.

"It's ready to eat." Seventh Uncle didn't pay much attention. After putting the watermelon knife away, he picked up a piece of yellow Xihua head with his fingers and stuffed it into his mouth. One piece fits perfectly.

Linze imitated Uncle Qi, picked up a piece of Xihua head, stuffed it into his mouth, and tasted it carefully.

Now Linze believed that the head of Xihua was a plant.Xihuatouzi has a peculiar fragrance, which attracts people's appetite. It tastes a bit like taro, but it tastes finer than taro.

"Delicious!" After Lin Ze finished eating the flower head, he took another bite of the radish that Aunt Lin helped him peel, oh!Perfect match!

For a while, Linze temporarily put aside all the messy questions in his mind.

Huatou's head was so big that Linze couldn't finish it by himself, so he shared it with other neighbors in the south of the village.

The grasshoppers and butterflies on the Seventh Uncle's straw mat were flying around, and the cubs of many creatures were attracted one after another. They wanted to exchange things with Seventh Uncle for grasshoppers, and some adults wanted to exchange baskets or other bamboo products.

It was also at this time that Linze found out that Boss Boar's big steamer was custom-made by Uncle Qi.

He originally wanted to ask if anyone had brought a mirror, so that he could take it back to Boar Boar first, but unfortunately he couldn't find the mirror after asking around, so Linze had to temporarily give up this idea.

Everyone was busy selling things and waiting for the market to end. Uncle Zhang, two houses away, was selling what seemed to be their kitchen knives. He was introducing his family's knives to the guests as an ancestral handicraft.

Before he was in the village, he had heard that the Zhang family's blacksmithing skills had been lost, but now why are they still selling his ancestral skills?Lin Ze seriously suspected that he was talking nonsense, but these kitchen knives didn't look like stainless steel on the outside either.

Uncle Zhang was unhappy with Linze's suspicious eyes, "Wuwazi, what kind of eyes are you looking at? This is our family's ancestral bone knife craft, which is completely made of bones."

While talking with Linze, Uncle Zhang sold another knife and exchanged a bunch of bones with the other party.Seeing that pile of bones, Linze believed it a little. Besides for making bone knives, who would collect a pile of bones?

Linze is also familiar with Grandma Zhang who is next to Uncle Zhang. Grandma Zhang is a tailor in the village, and she usually does some work to modify the size of clothes. At this moment, she is helping a tall man with a height of more than two meters to measure the size.

The organisms here are different, and it is inevitable to have custom-made clothes to wear. Creatures who can afford the price will save supplies to buy a set.

Lin Ze sat down to help Seventh Uncle and Aunt Lin sell things after eating and drinking.

Most of the things that were exchanged were unknown to Linze. Aunt Lin and the creatures here exchanged some plant seeds, among them were sea radish seeds, and besides that, there were also some other vegetable seeds, varying in quantity. Aunt Lin planned to grow her own food.

Linze has a lot to ask, such as the relationship between the human world and the spiritual world, such as why everyone in the south of the village comes here?Another example is why everyone has so many weird things to sell.

He has a lot of questions, and he plans to ask them clearly when he goes back.We are too busy now, and everyone is obviously not in the mood to answer his questions.

At this moment, Daqing suddenly appeared.

"Hey Linze! I'm back."

At this time, it was already afternoon, the bustle of the market had dissipated a lot, the things that should be exchanged were almost exchanged, and Daqing also finished his part-time job and came back.

Linze thought of the reward he wanted to give Daqing, and asked, "I haven't asked yet, you said earlier that you wanted some food as a reward, do you think it's okay to return the radish?"

There were still some sea radishes in Aunt Lin's basket, and he had thought of Daqing before, the reward Daqing wanted was plant food.So he asked Aunt Lin if he could sell him some sea radishes, but Aunt Lin didn't care about it, she just let him take whatever he wanted, and she would just plant some more later.

Of course Linze would not refuse to give the money, and planned to make up for Aunt Lin after returning home.

He is also guilty at the moment, last time he pulled out a small piece of Aunt Lin's sea radish without knowing it, how dare he have the cheek to ask for Aunt Lin's radish now.

"Sea radish?" Daqing is a vegetarian. When he saw sea radish, his heart was obviously moved. "How much do you plan to pay me?"

Linze didn't know the price situation here, so he went to ask Uncle Qi, and finally took out five sea radishes from the basket and handed them to Daqing as a reward.

Linze was still a little worried: "There are so many sea radishes, how do you plan to bring them back?"

"Don't worry, I'll ask my friend to take it away for me." After Daqing finished speaking, he jumped directly onto the sea radish, rubbing it back and forth excitedly.

"The passage is about to be closed. Let's pack up and get ready to go." Seventh Uncle exchanged the woven basket for a large piece of meat, and put today's harvest into the basket.

Others also began to pack up their own things. Some pushed carts, and some carried burdens, all preparing to leave.

Linze also put on his backpack, waved goodbye to Daqing who was behind him, and walked into the black hole behind Seventh Uncle and the others.

The whale didn't follow, Lin Ze looked back at it and signaled to follow.

The whale just barked in response, and had no intention of following.

Linze is not afraid that the other party will be trapped in this world, it obviously has a way to connect to the two worlds.

In the end he just waved his hand, and the whale said goodbye: "Goodbye!"

The whale turned over and called out to bid farewell to Linze.

This scene seemed familiar, and Linze felt a soreness in his heart, and his emotions were quickly suppressed by him.

"Fifth baby, follow up." Aunt Lin saw that Lin Ze hadn't followed for a long time, so she called out to him.

Surrounded by dark and dark passages, except for the feet, there is no practical thing to be seen elsewhere.

Aunt Lin and the others had already walked ten meters away, and Linze trotted to keep up, her toes landed on the black ground, creating white ripples in circles.

The feeling was like walking on water, making him wonder if he would fall directly into the dark world beneath his feet.

There are many pedestrians on the road leading to the human world, and they will also create circles of ripples when they step on the ground, and the light they arouse allows people to see things in the dark.

Apart from a few neighbors from the south of the village, there were many people Linze didn't know walking on the road.

After walking for about 5 minutes, light spots with different positions appeared in front of my eyes.

Seventh Uncle knew that Linze didn't know the route, so he explained it to him carefully, "The sixth exit from the left is the exit to Shuwhalu Bay, and other people come in from other entrances."

Lin Ze can analyze some information from the words, the entrance to the spirit world is not only Shuwhale Bay, it seems to have become a scale.

After entering the spirit world, Linze also knew that everything he encountered before was no longer a matter of gods and ghosts, which inevitably reminded him of Jun Yan who he regarded as a ghost.

It turned out that he had misunderstood his savior all along. Thinking of this, Lin Ze felt even more guilty.

They walked into the point of light going to Whale Cove.

As soon as he stepped inside, Linze felt a burst of cold pressing against his skin. This feeling was a little familiar. When the white light quickly faded, Linze could see clearly where they were.

Seventh Uncle explained to him: "This is the overlapping part of the two worlds. When the tide rises, we can go back."

Of course, Linze also recognizes this space. The place where the whale brought him last time is the Overlapping Realm, surrounded by the familiar red staghorn coral. Last time, he even picked up several pearls in the clam shell.

Linze thought of this grotesque world, and while everyone was not busy, he quickly asked, "Seventh Uncle, why can your straw grasshopper dance like a real grasshopper? It's amazing, it's as if it's alive."

Uncle Qi explained to him with a hoarse voice: "That is my special ability. As long as I can weave something similar to a living thing, that thing will have a certain degree of activity."

"It's amazing, can I learn it?" Linze actually thinks this skill is quite cool, not to mention other things, as long as he learns this skill, he will be the object of adoration by thousands of children.

When he was a child, he also admired Seventh Uncle so much, after all, only he had so many toys in his hands.

Uncle Qi laughed and said: "This is my personal ability, even if you want to learn it, you will not be able to learn it."

Although the result was somewhat disappointing, Lin Ze was not hit, and asked instead: "What's so important about this?"

Uncle Seven pointed to Aunt Lin and said, "Everyone's abilities are different, just like your Aunt Lin, she has the power to be friendly with plants, allowing her to grow vegetables in this overlapping world. Others want to be here Planting vegetables is basically impossible to grow on a large scale, and the overlapping world has been deserted, and plants cannot survive without regular care."

"That is to say, if you take care of it regularly, you can also grow spiritual plants here?" Linze's eyes brightened.

Seventh Uncle broke his dream: "Don't think about it, the overlapping world can only enter through the passage when the tide recedes to reveal the road of the overlapping world. After entering, we have to wait for the high tide to go out. We can enter in a month One to three times."

Linze suddenly remembered that sometimes when the tide ebbs, the neighbors in the south of the village will go to catch the sea. "You usually rush to the sea when the tide is low, is it just to come here?"

Seventh Uncle didn't deny it either: "Yes."

No wonder the last time they took advantage of the low tide to catch the sea, no one from the south of the village saw them. Linze asked again, "What are you doing here?" Could it be picking pearls?Last time he just walked around and picked up pearls, maybe everyone is the same.

"Planting."

"Didn't it mean that except for Aunt Lin, no one can survive planting here?"

"It's impossible to survive if it is planted in a large area. It can still survive if it is planted in a small area." Seventh Uncle walked up to a red coral and poked the red coral with his hand.

A hole in the coral swelled rapidly, and when it reached a certain limit, a stream of white juice was sprayed out, and a red bead was also sprayed out.

Uncle Qi continued: "Pick up these juices and water them on the plants you grow, and you can maintain many things that the plants need to grow, so that they will not wither and die in a short period of time. Although it cannot be planted in a large area, it can feed a small area. Some plants are still ok, we have opened a small plot of land here."

Linze saw these corals the last time he came here, and he was very curious about what kind of corals they were. "Are these corals plants? Or fungi or animals?"

"Staghorn corals belong to the creatures of the spirit world. They have strong vitality. After the overlapping world is blocked, there are very few creatures that can survive in the overlapping world. Staghorn corals are one of them." Seventh Uncle sighed slightly, "The balance here is broken Otherwise, it will be more beautiful, and there will be more surviving biological species.”

"Seventh Uncle, can you tell me about the spiritual world and the human world? It's like I'm living in a dream." Lin Ze pestered Seventh Uncle to tell him more about the relationship between the human world and the spiritual world. between things.

Uncle Qi said: "It's a long story... I can only pick out some general frameworks to tell you about."

Lin Ze nodded and heard him talk about news related to the spirit world.

It turns out that outside of the world recognized by ordinary humans, there is also a spirit world. The creatures in the spirit world are rather peculiar, and are collectively called spirit world creatures by humans.

The creatures in the spirit world are generally pure in mind and do no harm to humans. In the past, there were some creatures that resembled the creatures on the earth and modified their real appearance to live in the human world.

There is also a creature in the spirit world that can harm humans and creatures in the spirit world, that is, the dark spirit.

Dark spirits are originally living beings, but when the evil thoughts in them accumulate too much, they will deteriorate into dark spirits.

Some creatures can't control their own evil thoughts and greedy thoughts, they will lose their consciousness and become dark spirits. After becoming dark spirits, their strength will increase greatly, and they will attack creatures other than themselves, which is a very dangerous existence.

In the past, living beings would travel to and from the human world, but a major event happened a few years ago. People from the Human Special Ability Bureau blocked the passage between the two worlds, and it has become a one-way passage since then.

Now only humans can enter the spirit world, and creatures from the spirit world cannot enter the human world.

The reason is that creatures from the spirit world who stay in the human world for a long time are more likely to become dark spirits.

A few years ago, it was because the dark spirits lurking in the human world rioted and attacked humans and creatures, causing huge losses to both the human world and the spiritual world.
