Chapter 5 Unlock the upgraded version of Tomato

Jiang Ci returned home , he changed out of his blood-stained clothes. After eating spinach at noon, he still didn't feel hungry at night.

He first found a small earthen pot and transplanted the lily of the valley into it, and then tried to concentrate on reviving the withered lily of the valley.

Maybe I was too mentally exhausted at noon, and my brain couldn’t bear the slightest use of Naojiang Ci .

He had no choice but to give up first and sit on the iron chair. In the end, he didn't give up and lightly scratched his fingertips with a rusty blade, squeezing a few drops of blood into the basin.

Then he carefully watched the reaction in the earthen basin.

The yellowed leaves are still yellow. Well, it seems that the reaction with blood is much slower than the mental power.

Perhaps because of the powerful healing agent, Jiang Ci felt that his physical strength recovered quickly. He slowly tried to feel the mental power in his mind. After using it once at noon, he still seems to feel empty in his mind?

In other words, it is difficult to concentrate.

He stretched out his hand and clenched his fist. His strength was recovering. Maybe he would feel better after resting for a while. Thinking this, Jiang Ci lay down on the small bed in the middle of the room and started to sleep.

clouds in the sky through the leaky roof .

There is no sunlight in the sky of the wasteland world, and the moon cannot be seen after dark. Except for a group of humans who have almost given up living in the edge area, no one is willing to devote more resources to this place, so at night, it is completely dark, with only the sound of the wind blowing. Pass.

Jiang Ci woke up, he felt energetic.

He found a mobile phone that had no signal and checked the time. It was two in the morning.

Slept for six hours.

The light source in the room comes from an old kerosene lamp.

He looked at the lily of the valley first. After eating his blood, the leaves of the plant that had been growing all night turned slightly greener.

It seems that blood can promote the growth of plants, but the speed is very slow compared to spiritual power.

He stretched out his fingers to touch the single petal of the lily of the valley. The white petals looked bright and lovely under the light.

Somehow, Jiang Ci remembered the person who saved him during the day.

Jiang Ci took out the pink-packaged fruit candies in his pocket and looked at them, then raised a corner of his mouth and smiled .

Putting Lily of the Valley on the table with missing legs next to the bed, Jiang Ci sat down at the table.

Looking at the dried tomatoes steaming, he tried to concentrate, and his mind felt very clear. While he was thinking about the growth of plants, the picture of tomatoes sprouting and growing quickly played in his mind.

The tomato vine began to sprout, the leaves began to grow, and then produced a small green fruit.

The wind outside the window was even stronger, causing the iron door to shake.

The small green fruit slowly grew up, and finally became larger than an apple and then stopped growing. The green color also slowly faded and began to dye red. Finally, it became bright red and round, with a sweet smell that was very attractive.

After the tomato was finished, Jiang Ci felt weak and leaned back on the chair again. A few drops of blood flowed from his nose and fell on his white denim shirt.

He looked at the tomato, which was larger than an apple, and the images of growth that flashed through his mind when he used his mental power to induce growth. He roughly understood how to induce the growth of plants and his body's ability to withstand it.

This time , the physical condition is obviously much better than after the mental control at noon, and it lasts longer, and the plants grow better.

In other words, mental power can be trained to control plants.

And judging from the fruity aroma exuded by tomatoes, combined with the effects of eating spinach at noon, it can also stimulate the effects of the plant itself.

Tomatoes are very nutritious, and eating them can replenish the vitamins the body lacks to the maximum extent. If you do some exercise, you can train your body in the shortest time, and you will not always look weak.

Jiang Ci was hesitating whether to eat the big tomato now or exchange it for self-defense equipment, there was a slight noise outside the house.

He immediately walked to the door attentively and carefully, listening closely to the movement at the outer door.

There were messy footsteps, muffled breathing, and someone's low voice.

Jiang Ci sneered , he was being targeted.

Someone wanted to attack him in the middle of the night , but what was there about him as a pauper with nothing to worry about?

Could it be that Jiang Ming couldn't help but wanted to secretly take him away to use as a mobile blood bank, but Jiang Ming must have kept the secret for so long in order to prevent Jiang Ci from discovering his secrets .

Jiang Ci in the room silently moved his wrists. Although this body has no strength and poor physical endurance, Jiang Ci is also very content. With his training skills in his previous life, it is not difficult to practice it.

He has never fought with others in this world, but with his skills in his previous life, it is easy to deal with a few bluffing people who have been malnourished for a long time.

Jiang Ci looked around in the drafty house. Except for the bed in the middle, the table in front, and the broom behind the door, which could barely be regarded as a weapon.

The movement outside the door was getting closer and closer. Jiang Ci stuffed the rusty knife into his sleeve and put the broom under the table. When he felt the movement of the door lock outside, Jiang Ci opened the door generously.

Several people outside the door were raising their feet to kick down the door. The iron door suddenly opened, and several rough and cruel men looked at Jiang Ci .

The person who came was holding a machete and had the unique ferocious aura of a desperate gangster. Jiang Ci knew at a glance that this group of people were habitual murderers.

Jiang Ci looked confused, as if he didn't understand why someone was at his door in the middle of the night.

The few people at the door felt guilty for a moment. Seeing Jiang Ci's appearance, they looked at each other and then glared at Jiang Ci with ferocious expressions. The machetes in their hands glowed with silver. The wind blew in the middle of the night, making it easy to kill!

"What are you doing here?" Jiang Ci opened his innocent eyes with a frightened expression, silently stepped back and leaned on the table.

In the eyes of the gangsters, this action made Jiang Ci even more cowardly and cowardly.

In the eyes of the people in front, they were no different from those who had been dealt with before. They relaxed and waved their hands, and several people rushed home.

Jiang Ci's lowered eyes flashed with light.

Before the gangster could take action against Jiang Ci , his eyes were attracted by the bright red tomatoes on the table, and he looked at them like a wolf seeing meat.

What people in the fringe areas eat the most is the compressed meat distributed once a month in the central city. The only opportunity to get access to vegetables is through hunting in the back mountains and the distribution of supplies every three days.

Not everyone will have the supplies distributed, and even if they do get them, they will only be a few vegetable leaves.

The people who rushed in saw such a big tomato for the first time.

The leader was wearing a torn windbreaker. He reluctantly moved his sinister eyes to Jiang Ci and looked at her carefully. Finally, he almost cursed angrily, "Why are everyone so hungry, skinny, rough, and ugly, but you have thin skin, tender flesh, and long hair?" So beautiful!”

Then he pointed at the bright red tomatoes on the table and said with a surprised expression, "It turns out there is food in the house."

The refreshing fruity aroma spread out, making them salivate. They couldn't imagine taking this bite. The sweet and sour taste was so satisfying.

Jiang Ci held the corner of the table with one hand, his chin down, his body slightly bent and looking a little weak.
