Because of the troublemaker Tang Huai's previous incident, which angered the idol, Xia Qing reported the situation directly after getting through the phone without waiting for the idol to curse, "Third brother, the green light tree in my territory suddenly sprouted two hours ago. The smell it released not only attracted a large number of insects, but also caused the sheep boss to lose control and hit the tree. I was also affected by the smell while wearing a level 3 outdoor protective mask, and became anxious and angry."

Xia Qing's story aroused Zhang San's interest. He asked calmly, "What kind of gas and insect?"

call--

Xia Qing breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "It has no color and the smell is very faint. I checked it with the air toxin detector I exchanged with you, and it showed 'unknown gas'. I used a packaging bag to cover a sprouting branch, which should preserve the gas. I don't recognize the insect either. Shall I send it to you now?"

Zhang San replied, "No, I'll have someone go get it."

"Okay, thank you, Third Brother." Xia Qing took the opportunity to ask for an exchange. "After you find out the situation, can you give me a batch of insecticides that are suitable for the symptoms? I estimate that when the temperature rises above zero tomorrow, there will be more insects flying over."

Zhang San snorted, "Let's test first."

Ji Li, the courier from Territory No. 7, quickly arrived at the north gate of Territory No. 3 and took away the gas sampled by Xia Qing and a bag of insects.

Xia Qing had just prepared the bath water for Boss Yang, and before the meal was ready, Zhang San called.

"The one attacking the big toon tree is an evolved species of the Chinese toon borer. This evolved insect has a very strong ability to withstand cold weather. It can overwinter in the branches of trees as an older larvae. In spring, it crawls out of the branches to feed. After forming a cocoon, it quickly pupates and hatches, mates, and lays eggs. Are there any rough swollen callus left by the Chinese toon borer on the branches of the toon tree in your territory, or wood holes left by the bark shedding?"

Xia Qing was silent for two seconds. "There are definitely no big holes. Third brother, what does the callus tissue look like?"

Zhang San was silent for longer than Xia Qing, "Go under the tree now, I'll take a look myself."

Xia Qing immediately put on an airtight protective suit, ran to the big Chun tree, illuminated the trunk of the tree with a flashlight, and then made a video call to her idol.

Zhang San is usually lazy, but he is serious and calm when doing research. He carefully observed the main trunk, side branches, twigs and many clusters of young buds of the Chinese toon tree before he came to a conclusion. "There is a small amount of callus tissue, which means that an evolved borer once laid eggs in the wound of the bark of this tree. After hatching, the larvae bored into the bark and ate between the phloem and the xylem, forming hyperplastic callus tissue. Yes, that's where your finger is pointing now."

Xia Qing looked at the raised bumps on the tree trunk and remembered its scientific name: hyperplastic callus formed after being eaten by insects.

After talking about insects, Zhang San asked Xia Qing to hang up the phone and find a safe place to talk.

After Xia Qing returned home and confirmed that it was safe, she called her idol again. Zhang San then mentioned the unknown gas that Xia Qing had sent over. "According to your description, the tree's self-protection method is to release gas when it sprouts to attract animals and drive away the Evolutionary Borer, but the types of animals it attracts are somewhat abnormal. Who else have you told about the Chinese toon tree being able to release gas?"

Xia Qing immediately replied, "I didn't tell anyone except you."

Zhang San was satisfied and spoke in a gentler voice. "The sample gas contains a new synthetic element. Its function and efficacy have yet to be confirmed. Don't tell anyone yet. I'll ask Zhang He to take a sample and send you a batch of insecticides that are more effective against this type of evolutionary borer. Keep an eye on your evolutionary sheep and don't let it knock down the tree. This tree is very valuable for research."

In the exchanged information, Xia Qing had seen the Yi synthetic element.

The Yi synthetic element is a type of Yi synthetic substance. Its formation principle is similar to that of the Yi synthetic substance. It is a new substance formed by the combination of the Yi element and some substance.

However, most synthetic substances, especially synthetic toxins, can cause great harm to the human body, while the vast majority of synthetic substances are harmless to the human body and may even be beneficial.

It seems that when this tree formed the Yi synthetic element, the biomagnetic field in its body changed greatly, so Xia Qing was able to capture its difference using his magnetic perception evolution ability. The value of this tree now far exceeds that of ordinary green light plants, and it must be well protected.

"Don't worry, Third Brother. I will definitely protect the big tung tree." After making the promise, Xia Qing continued to ask, "Third Brother, on the third day after I met Boss Yang last spring, it went out of control in the rain. Could it be that it was affected by this Yi synthetic element, causing an imbalance in the two elements in its body?"

Xia Qing suspected that the synthetic elements released by this big tung tree were unusual and could pose a threat to humans and other animals.

Zhang San asked with great interest about the details of the sheep boss's loss of control, and then gave a cautious answer, "There is this possibility. What is the current level of the two elements in that sheep?"

this……

Xia Qing, who was wiping the sheep's wool, paused for a moment and lowered his voice again, "Last April, it had a 4‰ content of the element of chlorine and a 4% content of urinary tract. It has not been tested since then."

Zhang San was silent for a long time this time, and then he said with regret, "It would be better if the killing element was lower."

Lower, better taste...

Xia Qing was drooling with greed, so she didn't dare to answer the question and continued to ask, "The sick wolf was also under the tree at the time, but it was not affected by the smell. Could it be that this gas also chooses animals?"

Zhang San's voice became lazy. "There are three possibilities: First, the sick wolf's body has not recovered yet, so the Yi synthetic element has little effect on it; second, it is not a Yi-evolved animal, but just an ordinary animal; third, this smell has a more prominent effect on strength-evolved animals."

After that, Zhang San showed concern for the sheep boss again. "Your evolved sheep can still maintain such high-quality green light quality after losing control once. It is also very worthy of research. After the rainy season is over, you can cut a tuft of its hair and draw a tube of blood so that I can test it?"

Xia Qing made her attitude very clear. "You can draw a tube of blood and cut a tuft of wool. Big Sheep is an important companion of mine and the wolf pack. Please keep it a secret for me, Third Brother. Don't let anyone know about his physical condition."

No more blood can be drawn, but a few more handfuls of hair can be given.

"Of course." Zhang San responded readily, "I remember you said that the Chinese toon tree was also of good quality?"

"Yes, when tested last spring, the content of element yeast was 1, and the content of element dextrose was 0.23‰." Xia Qing had wanted to send it to her idol before to change the taste, but was rejected by her idol who did not like to eat toon sprouts.

Zhang San is now interested. "The low level of Yi element may be related to the fact that it synthesized the Yi element in its body into new substances. Let Zhang He break off some and bring them back as an exchange material for the insecticide."

Just like Zhang Song who was carried here by Ji Li last time, Zhang He, who was wearing an airtight protective suit, was carried here by Yan Long.

After she recovered, she immediately began testing and taking samples from the big camphor tree.

After sampling the bark, soil, and toon buds, Zhang He obtained Xia Qing's consent, cut a branch, and broke off a small bag of toon buds before handing the agent to Xia Qing, carefully instructing her, "This agent not only kills insects, but also blocks odors. Miss Xia, you'd better spray it now, and then spray it every eight hours. Because the toon buds of this tree will continue to grow, the odor they release will attract the evolved borer again, and then attract birds or other animals that feed on the evolved borer."

After saying that, Zhang He added thankfully, "Fortunately, this outbreak occurred at night."

If it were daytime, the birds would have been attracted by the insects and caused a bigger stir. (End of this chapter)
