There are four people in the room, one is Chen's father, and the other three are also acquaintances, Lan You who was on the spaceship to tide over the difficulties together, and Lan You's teacher Gu Jihong and his younger brother Chen Xingkong.

The four of them were all taken aback when they saw Chen Yaozhi's ferocious attire.

Father Chen was the first to react, and asked Chen Yaozhi to wash up first.

Waiting for Chen Yaozhi to change into a refreshing attire, he returned to the living room, and found that Chen's father was talking happily with Gu Jihong.

Chen Bitzhi wondered, Father Chen is a kind person, but he is not defenseless, how could he allow several strangers to enter the house, and still be able to talk and laugh happily.

In front of Chen's father, Chen Yaozhi would be a bit obedient, sitting at the table making tea and water, listening to the conversation between the two of them by the way.

Hearing this, Chen Yaozhi frowned.

Gu Jihong actually claimed that he was Chen Yaozhi Jiudingxing's teacher when he was studying.Not to mention that the predecessor Chen Yaozhi and Gu Jihong are basically parallel lines, as for the virtue of the predecessor Chen Yaozhi, I am afraid that he would not have studied seriously for a day.

Chen Bitezhi remained calm and looked at Gu Jihong.

Chen Yaozhi's first impression of him was not bad. Although he came to inquire about the idiom wine, he was gentle, kind and thrifty, with a rigorous and old-fashioned demeanor.

I thought this person was successfully fooled by Du Kang last time, but now it seems that he still underestimated the enemy.

Chen Yaozhi was listening to Professor Gu's nonsense.

In the story of Professor Gu, Chen Yaozhi is his favorite student, well-behaved and obedient, respecting teachers and teaching, with excellent grades.All kinds of good words came crashing down like a torrential rain, which made Father Chen elated.

The corner of Chen Bitzhi's mouth twitched into a smile, seeing that Father Chen was so happy that a chrysanthemum was wrinkled on his face, he simply let Gu Jihong make up the story.By the way, following Gu Jihong's words, he cooperatively called Lan You and Chen Xingkong to his senior brother.

Lan You and Chen Xingkong were not as old-fashioned as Gu Jihong. They were a little shy when they heard the master talking nonsense, but now they were yelled by Chen Bitzhi, and they immediately blushed.

Seeing that Gu Jihong's story was almost finished, Chen Yaozhi interrupted at the right time. "Father, it's late, you should go to bed early. I'll talk to the teacher."

Father Chen looked at the time, nodded, said goodbye to Gu Jihong and the others, and walked slowly back to the room.

When Chen's father's door was closed, the smile on Chen Yaozhi's face disappeared instantly, and he looked at the three people in the living room with cold eyes.

"In these days, whenever you go home, someone will arrange a cheap teacher for you." There was no teasing in Chen Yaozhi's tone, just like the daily booing and asking for warmth.

Lan You was a little embarrassed. Chen Yaozhi had saved him in the interstellar spaceship, but now he is like this, which is a bit ungrateful.

Chen Xingkong had relatively no sense of guilt, but the master's nonsense made him feel a little guilty.

Gu Jihong stroked his clothes without any sense of shame. "People are floating in the rivers and lakes, and making up random things is a basic skill." Gu Jihong drank the last sip of tea in his cup slowly, looking at Chen Bitzhi with burning eyes: "Besides, the ability to make up things is far worse than that of Boss Chen and Boss Du." , Gu is still willing to bow down."

Chen Bitzhi narrowed his eyes slightly, meeting Gu Jihong's gaze.It seems that Du Kang's rhetoric last time did not dispel this person's suspicion.

Seeing that Chen Yaozhi was not flustered, Gu Jihong felt suspicious.In fact, Gu Jihong believed Du Kang's rhetoric last time.Not to mention that the ability is difficult to dissolve in red wine, the ability itself is too unique.Du Kang's explanation is a relic left by advanced civilization, but it is indeed the most explainable rhetoric.

Originally, Gu Jihong planned to go back home, but before leaving, he suddenly wanted to investigate Chen Yaozhi's information, and found the problem after a search.

The impression that Chen Yaozhi was ignorant and idle was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and he could find out by doing a basic investigation.Although after the awakening of the ability, the personality also changes, but the awakening time is not long.

Gu Jihong has been obsessed with academics for many years, but he is not ignorant of political and business people.

Wei Ju'an, the boss of the First Chamber of Commerce, is also a topical figure. When Wei Ju'an was a fledgling and Gu Jihong hadn't broken with the family, he had met him several times at receptions.

Wei Ju'an looks sincere and enthusiastic on the outside, giving people the illusion that he is easy to get along with, but in fact he is quite old-fashioned in his words and deeds. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is wise but stupid.The rapid rise of the First Chamber of Commerce in these years is inseparable from his step by step.

If such a person really discovers the remains of advanced civilization, they will definitely maximize their utility.It is obviously unreasonable to hand him over to a young man who opened a wine shop for only a few months and was a street gangster before.

After having this suspicion, Gu Jihong checked the dynamics of the 1848 wine shop again. After seeing the gambling event, he was even more sure that Du Kang's words were lies, at least half of them were true and false.

If it is said that Chen Yaozhi's participation in the Four Flowers Festival is to make a name for the supernatural red wine, then it is understandable.But he regards supernatural red wine as a prize for ordinary red wine, which clearly shows that in his heart, he values ​​ordinary red wine more than supernatural red wine.Including during the game, his words and deeds also expressed this point of view.

Since it is inferred that Chen Yaozhi pays more attention to ordinary red wine, it means that he and Wei Juan are obviously not in the same boat, and it is impossible to be in the same boat, and it is impossible to meet all the conditions for cooperation.

But he also investigated that Du Kang was indeed a member of the First Chamber of Commerce, and the Fourth Star Field Branch of the First Chamber of Commerce did have news about supernatural red wine, but the information was very vague.

So all the blame and mystery were placed on Chen Yaozhi.

Gu Jihong quickly poured out all his suspicions, did not give Chen Yaozhi time to think of countermeasures, and expressed his request openly and honestly. "Let's put it this way, Boss Chen, I'm not interested in the origin of the wine and so on. I just want to ask for cooperation."

Chen Bitezhi didn't speak, and silently refilled the tea for the three of them, and sat back in their chairs.After a long time, he said lightly, "Professor Gu, I want to ask, do you think I have unlimited wine to encourage growth?"

Gu Jihong was silent for a while.

Supernatural red wine, as the name suggests, must first have supernatural powers.He believes that the most ideal situation is that Chen Yaozhi knows someone who has the ability to promote the rapid growth of xenografts.But after seeing the 1848 wine shop continuously launching all kinds of incredible supernatural wines, this conclusion is difficult to hold.After all, it is impossible for someone who happens to have so many special abilities and who happens to be able to transform those abilities into red wine.

Gu Jihong was silent for a long time, and the fallen leaves in the courtyard circled around several times, Gu Jihong finally spoke.

"I know, this wine must be rare, and I don't want to go into the details of its origin and quantity. I'm here because I have something to do." Gu Jihong took out a wooden box from the storage bracelet while talking.

The wooden box looks a little old, with a brown-red background and intricate carvings.

Gu Jihong opened the wooden box, and the inside was empty, only a fist-sized rock.

Gu Jihong carefully took out the stones: "This is a tenth-grade heterophyte, a millennium photo flower. As the name suggests, this flower blooms once a thousand years, but it will record all the environments it has experienced in the past thousand years, so it is called a millennium photo flower."

Chen Yaozhi had already read the Handbook of Alien Plants and Beasts before, and he knew it from the bottom of his heart without Gu Jihong's introduction.The Millennium Picture Flower can be judged as a tenth-level heteroplant because no method has been found to damage it.But it has almost no attack power, and its greatest value is to study history and ecological changes.

The millennium photo flower blooms once every thousand years. The flowers in the pictures and texts are flourishing and gorgeous. After unfolding, they are nearly three stories high. The colors are erratic and dreamlike.

It was also the first time for Chen Yaozhi to see a tenth-level alien plant, so he couldn't help but take a closer look.The thousand-year photo flower looks like the meat plant he raised before time travel, but the name is not so elegant, his meat plant is called the butt flower.

"If you don't talk about it, you won't be able to find it if you throw it in a stone." Chen Yaozhi said.

Gu Jihong smiled slightly: "Yes, this flower blooms once in a thousand years, but the flowering period is only three months. I have seen it bloom once, how lucky I am."

Chen Bitzhi: "So, Professor Gu came to appreciate the heterophytes with me?"

"No." Gu Jihong finally stated the purpose of this trip. "I watered it with your red wine before, and all the flowers were sucked away. I guess, the flowering period of these thousand years should have been reduced, but I don't know how much it has been reduced."

Chen Bitzhi smiled: "You came to me because you plan to buy wine to water the flowers?"

Gu Jihong did not deny it, but nodded.

Lan You and Chen Xingkong, who had been acting as sculptures in the living room, looked surprised.They always thought that Gu Jihong was so anxious to find the owner of the red wine because of the research of Bai Guojie.Unexpectedly, an unheard of thousand-year photo flower appeared out of nowhere.

Chen Yaozhi: "I can't see that Professor Gu is so elegant and obsessed with this flower. But Professor Gu, I really don't have any extra wine here. I'm afraid it won't be able to satisfy Professor Gu's wish to see youth again."

Gu Jihong looked haggard, like the dead branches of grape vines piled up in the corner of the yard, full of despair and struggle in life.

After another long silence, Gu Jihong finally spoke quietly.

"I want to see this flower bloom again because I want to know the cause of my daughter's death."

Everyone present was taken aback.

Chen Xingkong has only studied under Gu Jihong for three or four years, and he has never heard that Professor Gu has any children.Lan You had heard that Gu Jihong lost his wife in his early years and had a daughter, but he had never heard of it from Professor Gu.

The night wind suddenly became bitter, and the wind blew into the house from the small courtyard, blowing the frivolous objects on the table into a mess.

Chen Yaozhi tightened his clothes and closed the window.

At this moment, Gu Jihong had no previous style, suddenly he changed from hale and hearty to sluggish, and his usually bright eyes also became dull.He half supported the table, sat down, and talked about the past.

Gu Jihong is the heir of the Gu family of the central star, and the Gu family is also considered a famous family. If Gu Jihong is willing to accept the protection of the family, his life will definitely be more comfortable than now.

But Gu Jihong has a strange temper, he is obsessed with the study of xenoplantology.The Gu family is considered a military and political family, and there have been no scientific researchers for several generations, so they naturally cannot understand Gu Jihong's pursuit.

Gu Jihong is not a child of a good-for-nothing family who cannot walk independently. With his own ability, he quickly made his way in the academic world.He is keen on research, and has little interest in other things, so his marriage is also arranged by the family.

The other party is a lady from a well-matched family, she has no emotional basis, and the relationship after marriage is also very cold.A few years later, the lady of the family passed away due to a genetic disease.

They have a daughter named Gu Qianying.After his wife passed away, the burden of taking care of his daughter naturally fell on him.

It's strange that he has no feelings for his wife, but unexpectedly likes this daughter.In addition to scientific research, all his energy is spent on his daughter.

Like him, his daughter is also obsessed with the study of xenoplants, even crazier than him, so he is naturally happy to see the results.

On the day his daughter turned 20, he bought a millennium photo flower at an auction.Ten-level heterophytes are naturally valuable, but the Millennium Photo Flower is special. So far, it has not played much role except for the study of ecological changes, so the price is within the range that Gu Jihong can afford.

His daughter inherited his duplicity, laughing that he bought a piece of useless thing, but she always carried the thousand-year-old picture flower with her.

In the third week of her 20th birthday, the Millennium Photo Flower was in full bloom.This once-in-a-thousand-year opportunity actually happened to them.

During the three-month flowering period, the father and daughter made records around the Millennium Photo Flower, and archived the images recorded on the petals.

Later, the daughter went to the newly opened planet in the fourth star field alone to do research on xenografts.

In those years, although the father and daughter had never met each other, their communication was never interrupted.

He knew his daughter had found a new xenoplant.

He knew that his daughter had discovered a special form of a foreign plant that was not recorded.

He knew that when his daughter was on a field trip to record the growth of heterogeneous plants, he saved an injured officer.

after that.

He knew that his daughter fell in love with the officer, but she did not tell him the origin of the officer's name.

He knew that his daughter was pregnant, but her daughter told him that she would bring her lover back to him soon.

He couldn't bear his daughter being bullied by a brat, and rushed to kill her, but found that her daughter had lost contact.

At first, he thought it was a short-term loss of contact. After all, some special situations would appear from time to time during field trips, but after waiting for many days, there was still no news.

He went to the new planet in the fourth star field, but found no clues.

His daughter, as if she had never appeared in this world, disappeared completely.

He investigated for several months, even with the help of his family, but still had no clue.

Just when he was disheartened, his authenticator received a message to meet him, saying that there was news about his daughter.
