Zui Meng felt that standing with Qi Ge was really stressful.
In the real world, Zui Meng is a research-oriented person with a bit of social anxiety. He is used to being straightforward in what he says and does, and he rarely lies.
But Qi Ge was just the opposite. He opened his brain, half of it was clever, half of it was evil, with some tricks in between.
Especially now, Zui Meng had something to hide and was afraid of being caught by Qi Ge, so he couldn't help but be more cautious.
However, just when Zui Meng decided to think for at least 3 seconds before saying anything, Qi Ge suddenly stopped testing him.
"Oh, by the way, Brother Zuimeng, who built this city of yours?
You can actually build a city in this [Spice Rainforest], you are quite capable."
Zui Meng heard Qi Ge's question and thought about it in his mind.
He felt that there should be no trap in Qi Ge's question, so he replied:
“This city was built by a like-minded companion of mine, Xiao Ding. She entered the Yasha world much earlier than me and accidentally obtained a city-building order.
The reason why we chose this place is because it has rich plant resources.”
"Xiao Ding?" Qi Ge looked at Zui Meng with interest: "Is this an online name? Or do you know each other in real life?"
Zui Meng was well prepared and not panicking at all.
"Ding-crotch cat, Ding from Viola yedoensis, crotch from Pants crotch fruit, cat from Cat's whiskers grass.
I thought calling her "Little Cat" was too frivolous, so I just kept calling her "Little Ding."
“Oh, I see.”
Qi Ge's eyes moved slightly.
Dingdangmao, one of the top players of the Tianxiabaye Guild and the Avili (Barrier) faction, owned an extremely special plant city in his previous life - [Violet City]
[Violet City] The entire city is built on a giant tree. The city walls, buildings, and troops are almost all made of plants, and even the street lights are [light flowers].
A top player of the Tianxiabaye Guild in the previous life, now he is in Zuimeng’s team in this life?
Haha, that’s interesting.
Qi Ge said admiringly:
“Awesome! We can now build a city in the Spice Forest.
There are four intermediate wild monster areas near [Spice Rainforest]. [Spice Rainforest] itself is also a semi-chaotic area, so the defense pressure is very high.
It seems that Xiao Ding's fighting ability is very outstanding."
Zui Meng laughed and said:
"Yeah, I'm far behind Xiao Ding.
When I first entered the game, she was the one who guided me and helped me a lot.
If it weren't for her, with my gaming skills, I wouldn't be able to make any progress."
Hearing this, Qi Ge closed his eyes slightly and sorted out the information of his previous life and this life.
Zui Meng has a like-minded team under him. As soon as he enters the game, someone helps him level up. There are also top players who built a city for him to support his research.
If you only look at these, you might be an ordinary rich player.
But Zui Meng happened to be a botanist who was extremely knowledgeable about plants, and his subordinates were also extremely good at studying plants.
How come these people got together by such a coincidence?
How come this group of people got together and Zui Meng became the boss?
In all likelihood, Zui Mengde is a real-life big shot in the field of botany.
This kind of big shot must have an official background.
If Zuimeng is an official, then Chaohua, who is familiar with Zuimeng...
“I just found it strange.
Why does Chaohua have such unimaginable enthusiasm for me?
I mentioned inviting her to join the studio, and she bought all 23 floors above .
No matter how rich a second-generation person is, he would not act so recklessly. "
At this moment, Qi Ge suddenly realized a problem.
“Wait a minute! Even if Chaohua wanted to get close to me, it would be enough to buy the third floor.
Why did she buy the twenty-third floor?
Hiss~ Who lives on these extra twenty-three floors?
Could it be that I'm surrounded by three layers of people inside and outside?
Fuck, it’s really scary when you think about it.”
"The Great God of Seven Pigeons? The Great God of Seven Pigeons?"
Zui Meng shouted several times before Qi Ge came back to his senses.
Qi Ge touched his face awkwardly and said:
"Oh, sorry, I was distracted.
Brother Zuimeng, can you pull out two of the Insect Demons so we can study them together?"
"Yes, yes, I'll arrange it right away."
Zui Meng raised his head towards the two lizardman players beside him, and they immediately ran away.
Soon, four players came over carrying two [Insect Demons].
"clatter!"
Qi Ge snapped his fingers and said softly:
"Chaohua, get ready to start recording the video.
Brother Zuimeng, let the others step back and clear the scene."
Zui Meng: "Is it starting now? Okay, I'll follow your instructions, Master."
Chaohua: “Okay~~”
Qi Ge brought Zui Meng to the two insect demons and said to Chao Hua:
"We'll try to shoot the whole thing in one take without any editing. Chaohua, be prepared."
3, 2, 1, go.”
Seeing Chaohua giving him an OK gesture, Qi Ge pointed at Chonghuomo and said to Zuimeng:
"Teacher Zuimeng, you have also done a lot of research on plants in reality.
What are some carnivorous plants similar to the insect demon in real life?
Could you please introduce it to us?"
"sure!"
When talking about his professional field, Zui Meng seems very excited.
“Plants that have the ability to kill bugs are not uncommon in our world.
For example, pine trees can produce resin to wrap insects to prevent them from biting them.
But just killing does not make it a carnivorous plant.
Only plants that have the ability to kill and digest insects to obtain nutrition can be called insectivorous plants.
This carnivorous plant, which can produce digestive enzymes and absorb decomposed nutrients, is distributed in 10 families and about 21 genera, with more than 630 species.
Common ones include Droseraceae, Nepenthesaceae, Sarraceniaceae, Glandulariaceae, Pyriculariaceae, Utriculariaceae, etc.
Some large pitcher plants can even prey on small mammals or reptiles, so insectivorous plants are also called carnivorous plants.
In addition, there are more than 300 genera of plants that have the function of catching insects, but they do not have the ability to digest prey and can only be called insect-catching plants.
The earliest insect-catching plant currently recognized in the world is the long-necked ancient pitcher plant. Fossil evidence shows that they lived in the early Cretaceous period about 120 million years ago.
Through our research, we found that the insect demon fully meets the characteristics of a carnivorous plant - it can obtain nutrients through photosynthesis when natural conditions are good, and it can also obtain nutrients by digesting prey .
Autotrophy and heterotrophy occur simultaneously.
Dear Yasha God Chosens, please watch the demonstration."
Zui Meng clapped his hands, and a skeleton soldier player immediately came over with a lively chicken.
This chicken has two black leaves on its head. It is a level 0 creature with very weak combat power. It is the most common poultry in the Yasa world and is named [Raw Chicken].
The skeleton soldier threw the noob towards a [Insect Demon].
The fruit part of this [Insect Demon] is a red-haired girl wearing a cheongsam-like outfit. From the two pea-shaped protrusions on the cheongsam, it can be clearly seen that there is no other clothing underneath the cheongsam.
Just as [Rookie] flew over, the cheongsam girl stretched out her hand with a cold face and grabbed [Rookie]'s neck in mid-air.
Then she pinched it hard, and the [Newbie] who was still screaming and struggling frantically let out a loud cry and rolled his eyes instantly.
The cheongsam girl turned around and picked up the [rookie]. The plant behind her that looked like a pitcher plant opened its feeding sac and held the [rookie] whole.
The plant's feeding sac moved in an orderly manner for a while, and the whole [chicken] was eaten up, even the bones were sucked dry.
Zui Meng raised his eyebrows and continued:
"The Insect Demon is very special.
Although the insect demon has many characteristics of a carnivorous plant, it is difficult for me to classify it as a carnivorous plant. I even have doubts about whether it is a plant.
In reality, there is a very important feature in the definition of plants.
Plants must have no ability to act independently, or only have weak ability to act.
As you can see, the bait fruit part of the insect demon is almost indistinguishable from that of an animal.
It will actively hunt prey and even make calls for help to attract prey to take the bait.
This is not something that plants should be able to do.”
Qi Ge smiled and said:
“Regarding this point, I think the definition of plants in the Yasa world is different from that in our reality.
Whether or not a plant has strong mobility is not a criterion for judging plants in the Yasha world.
Please look. "
Qi Ge smiled and snapped his fingers, summoning a dead tree guarding the heroic spirit.
“This is the fifth-level soldier of the Avili force, the Deadwood Guard.
As you can see, it has powerful mobility and also possesses plant-type special skills.
Similar types of soldiers include flyweed, snake sword flower, swamp mud flower, etc.
But I very much agree with the main point that Teacher Zuimeng just made.
The [Insect Devil] is indeed very special."
As Qi Ge spoke, he took out a dagger, tore open the clothes on the cheongsam girl's back, and cut into the connection between the cheongsam girl's back and the plant body!
"Pah", a stream of green blood splashed, and the cheongsam girl fell down straight as if she had lost her soul, with her face hitting the ground.
The plant body of the [Insect Demon] kept shaking like crazy.
Since Qi Ge had not communicated with Zui Meng in advance, even Zui Meng was shocked at this moment.
He asked hurriedly: "Great God Qi Ge, what are you doing?"
"Don't worry."
Qi Ge smiled and replied, "Now use the [Perspective Method] to look at the plant body and the girl's fruit separately, and read out what you see."
As if waking from a drunken dream, he immediately used the [Perspective Technique].

"The daughter of Senluo?!"
Zui Meng’s mouth opened wide.
Qi Ge likes to see Zui Meng's reaction, as it gives him a sense of pleasure as if he has succeeded in playing a prank.
The secret of the [Insect Demon] in my previous life was told to me by Zui Meng. My expression at that time was exactly the same as Zui Meng's now.
This, this is called Thirty years on the west side of the river, Thirty years on the east side of the river.
"Yes. This is the most special thing about the Insect Demon. It is a combination of troops.
The girl and the plant body are actually separate.
When combined, they are one branch of the military; when separated, they are two branches of the military.
The two individuals can be completely symbiotic and yet both can exist independently.”
Qi Ge pointed at the girl and said, "If you advance in the form of a bug demon, then the girl will always be a bait fruit.
But after separating , and then training with the girl to advance to the next level, the girl will gradually gain intelligence.
After reaching level 5, the girl will be as intelligent as a normal human being and will even have the ability to cast spells.
However, at level 1, the girl had no intelligence at all and no ability to act.
If you want her to gain combat experience, you have to use some special methods.
But because of this, as long as you train the girl, she will be like your property, extremely obedient and loyal to you. "
"It's incredible! It's incredible!"
Zui Meng said this as he approached the girl with shining eyes.
He stepped over the girl and walked straight towards the [Giant Mouth Worm Tree].
"What kind of plant is this? It can actually parasitize humans and even completely control them.
Parasitic plants in our reality only obtain all or most of the nutrients and water they need from other plants, causing the host plants to gradually wither and die.
For example, ghost orchid and dodder.
In the real world, most of the organisms that can parasitize and control organisms are fungi.
For example, the ergot fungus of Cordyceps sinensis, and the zombie fungus that can control ants.
[Giant Mouth Worm Tree] is actually both a carnivorous plant and a parasitic plant.
Since it has parasitic abilities, it should be able to extract nutrients directly from the host.
So why did it evolve the ability to hunt?
Interesting! It's amazing. I really want to be parasitized and study the whole process of parasitism.
Great God Qi Ge, is there any way to let the [Giant Mouth Worm Tree] parasitize me?"
Seven Pigeons: ...
"Oh."
Qi Ge laughed helplessly.
It is indeed a drunken dream, and it is exactly the same as in the previous life.
Even though the [Shinra Girl] was lying in front of him without any resistance, he remained indifferent, with only the plant body in his mind.
This situation did not improve until Zui Meng found a wife in the game.
By the way, Zui Meng’s wife in his previous life was the first Level 5 [Senra Girl] he trained.
Maybe it was the one he just stepped over.
"Teacher Zuimeng, are you curious about the symbiotic relationship between the Senluo Girl and the Giant Mouth Worm Tree?
According to the information I have read, [Insect Demon] is not a native soldier type in the Yasa world.
It came to the Yasa world from a destroyed world.
Shall we go and have a look together?"
When Zuimeng heard this, he nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, okay! I agree!"
“Crack!”
Qi Ge gestured to Chao Hua, indicating to stop recording the screen.
He woke up from a dream and realized that he and Qi Ge were recording a video.
Qi Ge patted Zui Meng's shoulder and said with a smile:
"Teacher Zuimeng, thank you for your hard work. Your acting is really good."
"No matter where you are, you are acting yourself."
Zui Meng waved his hands repeatedly.
Qi Ge laughed and continued:
"Brother Zuimeng, you are really humorous.
When I called you Teacher Zuimeng just now, your reaction was so calm, and you didn't seem to be uncomfortable at all.
If this is a true-to-life performance... I guess there wouldn't be many people calling you teacher in real life, right?
With your knowledge, are you a teacher at some university?"
Zui Meng: ...
The drunkard was almost dumbfounded, he never dreamed that even the name contained temptation and trap.
"I am……"
Zui Meng finally thought of an excuse, but was interrupted by Qi Ge just as he was about to speak.
"Hahaha, just kidding.
We are playing games, so we cannot just ask about other people's real-life identities.
Next time someone asks you about your identity, you must not tell it.
Although we are separated by a network world, there are many people with great powers.
For example…”
Qi Ge glanced at Chao Hua and said deliberately:
“For example, if someone takes a fancy to one of your game props and blocks you in real life, that would be very dangerous.
If ordinary people like us encounter such a thing, we can only lie down and let the money go, or call the police."
Chaohua walked over with a pouty mouth, grabbed Qige's hand, and said angrily:
"Let's see who dares! Great God Qi Ge, don't worry, I will protect you in reality.
Don’t look at me because I’m skinny and small, but I have a lot of bodyguards at home.”
“Oh~”
Qi Ge's eyes lit up:
"How much is a lot? Are there more troops?"
Chaohua: ...
Zui Meng: ...
This time, even Chaohua's expression looked a little strange.
"Hey, why are you so serious? I was just joking.
Um, is it too cold? Not funny?
Blame me, blame me, don’t take it to heart.”
Qi Ge pulled Zui Meng's sleeve and said:
“But what I just said in the video was not a joke. The Insect Demon is really not a type of soldier in the Yasha world.
According to the information I found, the place where the insect demon first appeared was in the [Spice Rainforest].
In other words, there is a high possibility that there are void fragments of the [Insect Devil] here."
Zuimeng asked curiously:
"Great God, what are void fragments?"
“The Void Fragment is a game copy.
Game copy, a game term, means a place where you and your teammates can explore, adventure or complete tasks in a private area without being disturbed by others. No one other than your teammates can enter your private area.
We are in the big world now, and other players can enter us at any time.
But the [Void Fragment] was closed as soon as we entered, and we were the only ones inside.
There is a high possibility that there is a copy of [Insect Demon] in [Spice Rainforest].
How about it, are you interested? "
"Interested! Master, please take me with you."
Qi Ge said seriously:
"It's very dangerous in there. If you want to go, you must follow me closely and obey my orders. You can't act on your own."
Zui Meng nodded vigorously.
“God, I know.
Although my fighting ability is weak now, I will definitely not be a drag. "
I have experience in this. I used to go to Sanjiangyuan with the 13th Division to conduct research..."
“Cough cough cough!”
Chaohua coughed violently.
Zui Meng:... Damn, I blew myself up again.
Qi Ge pretended not to hear and said to Zui Meng:
"Brother Zuimeng, get ready, we'll set off right away."
"Okay, okay, Master, what do we need to prepare?"
Qi Ge knocked on the Giant Mouth Worm Tree and said to Zui Meng:
“This has to start with the habits of the insect demon.
The insect demon lures creatures, but can also be lured by them.
The best bait to lure the insect demon is a handsome man.
For example, my charm is 30.
But I am the main force in our team, so you have to be the bait.
The preparations I'm talking about are some treasures that can increase your charm.
At least the charm must be stacked to 14 or above to have the effect of bait."
"14 points... um, I only have 9 points."
Zui Meng was a little embarrassed.
"It's not even one-third of what you have, Great God."
“I have passed.”
Qi Ge smiled and said:
"The human race is born with a charm of 0 to 10, with a median of 5.
The fact that you have a 9-point charm shows that you have a good foundation."
"Ah, speaking of this, Master, I read your guide when I entered the game, and when I created my character, I maxed out my appearance."
“Yeah, well done.
If you pull it up to the maximum, you can add 3 points of natural charm, which means that your appearance system gives you a score of 6. From the standards of the Asian Sand World, you are already a very handsome guy. "
Chaohua pulled Qige's sleeve and whispered proudly:
"Boss, I just made a slight adjustment. The charm value is now 10 points!"
"Isn't this normal? You are beautiful."
Qi Ge rubbed Chao Hua's head, just like stroking a cat.
After a while, Zui Meng said to Qi Ge in embarrassment:
“Master, we don’t have any treasures that increase charm in our team.
If we order from outside, we can get a few, but it will take a long time, maybe several weeks. "
Outside adjustment...
The seven pigeons remained silent.
When you say "outside", do you mean other official teams in the Asian Sands world, or do you mean the reality?
Hiss, don’t scare me. Can you still get equipment from reality to the Yasa world?
I can only take artificial gemstones.
Qi Ge knew that there was only a thin membrane separating him from the mysterious organization behind Zui Meng. He wanted to wait for this membrane to hit and break on its own, and did not want to take the initiative to puncture this membrane.
Then the Seven Pigeons sighed and said:
"Forget it, I'll lend it to you."
Qi Ge said as he started taking things out of his backpack.

Everything else is fine, but...
Zui Meng looked at the [Deep Purple Psychedelic] in Qi Ge's hand and took a deep breath.
"Hiss! These two ropes and a piece of purple triangle cloth are actually a level 6 alchemical treasure?
It's outrageous!
Damn, what man would wear this?!"
Qi Ge rolled his eyes at Zui Meng and said, "Do you know how hard it is to find charm equipment without [Female Only]?
It's good enough to have it, but you still dislike it.
This is just a game equipment. You put it in the equipment column and then put on a costume. Who knows what you are wearing underneath? "
Zui Meng: ...
Zui Meng looked at Qi Ge suspiciously: "Great God, could it be that you took this off yourself?"
Qi Ge said with disdain: "Haha, I was born with a natural charm of 30, do I still need this?"
Do you understand the value of the most handsome guy in Asia Beach?
Chaohua looked at the deep purple psychedelic in Qi Ge's hand. The pattern on the deep purple psychedelic was constantly flowing and changing, just like a purple starry sky.
Chaohua was so envious that she almost cried, and said hurriedly:
“This is so beautiful.
Boss, why don't you lend it to me? I can even dress up as a man and serve as bait for you guys!"
