Chapter 244: Journey to the Plant Planet
After listening to the introduction of the Plant Alien King, the king was silent for a short time.

Then, he looked up at the Plant Alien King and said, "Since both creatures have the ability to parasitize, they have something in common. The striped worms cannot be used as research samples, but maybe the plants on your planet can be used as research objects!"

The Plant Alien King hesitated: "Although what you said is true, one of them is an insect and the other is a plant. Do they really have anything in common?"

The King of the Plant Aliens felt that even if Wang Wei really wanted to do research, he might not be able to find anything useful from the parasitic plants on their planet.

Instead of doing this, it would be better to continue researching the tapeworms, which would make things easier for them.

Wang Wei shook his head slightly. "Although the two organisms are essentially different, they both survive by being parasitic. Perhaps we can find out the root cause of why the striped worm must parasitize organisms from the parasitic plants, and solve the problem from the source."

Wang Wei understood that the reason why he insisted on going to the plant planet was not because studying parasitic plants would definitely yield some results, but because plants and insects have always been in a state of mutual growth and mutual restraint. In Xia Country, everyone understands that the natural environment is a whole, and if any link is missing, problems will arise.

He thought that there should be something to be gained on the plant planet.

At the same time, they have no other choice but to look for more possibilities through limited clues. Of course, if the Plant Alien King is unwilling, he will never force it.

"Do you have any unspeakable secrets? If your plant planet does not welcome outsiders like us, we will find other ways to deal with it."

The Plant Alien King has a lot of things that can be said directly and clearly without having to hide them anymore.

After hearing Wang Wei's words, the Plant King waved his hands and said, "We don't have any unspeakable secrets. The people of our planet are very easy-going. I'm just worried that you might have made a wasted trip."

Wang Wei expressed his understanding of the concerns of the Plant Planet King, and it also further proved that the people of the Plant Planet yearn for peace more and will not look upon them with hatred because of their visit.

"Is it a wasted trip? We have to go there in person to know the result. Before we get any results, our worries are groundless!"

The King of the Plant Alien people looked puzzled after hearing what Wang Wei said and asked Wang Wei what it meant to worry about nothing.

Wang Wei chuckled and began to explain to the Plant Star King the origin of the person who worries about the sky: "There was a person on the planet where I lived before. He didn't understand astronomy, so he always felt that the sky would collapse one day."

"He was worried all day long because of this incident, and later he passed away very early because of this incident. So some people say that he was worried about something that would never happen, which is called worrying about nothing!"

This was the first time the Plant Alien King heard this statement, and he couldn't help but marvel at the profoundness of the culture of the planet where Wang Wei lived.

But even so, the King of the Plant Alien still did not recommend Wang Wei to use the study of parasitic plants on the plant planet as a breakthrough. He believed that such an idea would likely make Wang Wei fail, and it would be better to continue with the current meatworm experiment.

Wang Wei only had his worries. The situation of Ouyang Zhifeng and Wu Zhigang looked definitely not simple. He felt that even if they continued the experiment on the striped worms, they might get nothing. So he simply planned to change the direction of the experiment. Even if they might not be able to get any useful results, it would be better than waiting for Ouyang Zhifeng and Wu Zhigang to dominate the fate of their group.

"Although I shouldn't say this, it seems that everyone in our Interstellar Federation Base is on the verge of death. If your people and you, the king, do not resist the approach of outsiders like us, I still hope to visit your planet. Don't worry, even if this investigation will not yield any results, we will never blame the Plant Planet for this."

After being silent for a long time, the Plant Alien King finally agreed to Wang Wei's request, "Okay, then you drive the spaceship and follow behind my spaceship. I will take you to see our planet."

The Plant Alien King finally reminded Wang Wei: "I advise you not to have too much hope, so that you won't be disappointed when the time comes."

Although the Plant Alien King believed the promise Wang Wei had just made, he also understood that the people in the Interstellar Federation Base had been infected with the fleshworms, which made Wang Wei, the manager, very worried. If Wang Wei really had too high expectations for this trip to the Plant Planet, he would definitely not get a good result.

Wang Wei certainly understood this truth, and nodded to the Plant Alien King, "I know this!"

The two of them immediately set off for the plant planet. Perhaps it was because Ouyang Zhifeng and Wu Zhigang didn't care about Wang Wei's movements at all, and even hoped that Wang Wei would leave the Interstellar Federation Base, so no one knew when Wang Wei left.

The two traveled in space for about three days. Wang Wei's spaceship followed the spaceship of the plant alien king, and finally saw a green planet floating in the dark space.

Compared to the Earth where Wang Wei lives, this planet looks even greener, and there is almost no trace of water on the surface.

But Wang Wei understood that a planet that could allow plants to grow so densely and vigorously must have no shortage of water. Perhaps the Earth trillions of years ago was not much different from this plant planet.

Following the plant alien king's spaceship, they landed smoothly at a carefully built landing site.

The moment he stepped off the spaceship, Wang Wei was shocked by the scene before him.

He even wondered if he had entered a world that only existed in fairy tales.

Almost every child on earth has read fairy tales when he was a child. In fairy tales, there are towering trees with all kinds of creatures living on them.

There are also small animals living in the tree holes, making them very cozy.

And this is the scene before his eyes.

There are no tall buildings on the plant planet, only various kinds of towering trees.

The people of the Plant Planet live among these towering trees. They hollow out the tree trunks to make their homes, build stairs outside the trunks, and build suspension bridges between the trunks of the giant trees.

Although they do not have reinforced concrete buildings, their living environment is still planned in an orderly manner.

Seeing the green plants everywhere and various flowers filling every corner of the planet, Wang Wei felt much better.

The Plant Planet King walked to Wang Wei's side and smiled at him: "Welcome to the Plant Planet."

"Is this place completely different from any planet you've seen before?"

Wang Wei could feel that the King of the Plant Planet had no ill will towards him, and the people of the Plant Planet who welcomed them off the spaceship all stared at him with curiosity.

At this time, several ministers from the Plant Planet came forward and saluted the Plant Planet King and said hello: "King, this is..."

The Plant King immediately introduced Wang Wei's identity to his people, "This is the person in charge of the Interstellar Federation Base, his name is Wang Wei."

"The purpose of coming to our plant planet this time is to investigate a parasitic plant on our planet!"

Wang Wei could see that although this group of people did not reject his presence, they still seemed very curious about his purpose.

When he thought of this, Wang Wei also felt that it was time for him to stand up and say something: "Hello, I am the person in charge of the Interstellar Federation Base, my name is Wang Wei."

"The reason I came to the Plant Planet this time is because the King of the Plant Planet said that there is a parasitic plant on your planet that is very similar to another parasitic organism we encountered recently, so we plan to come here to investigate. You can rest assured that we have no improper intentions towards the Plant Planet."

The Plant Planet Minister's expression became much more relaxed after Wang Wei finished speaking, and he invited Wang Wei with a polite smile on his face.

Walking into the palace of the Plant Planet, Wang Wei was even more amazed at the magnificence of the Plant Planet and the intelligence of the people there.

The palace of the plant planet is made up of trees of different heights. All parts are connected together by suspension bridges and plant trunks, which makes it look unreal.

The Plant Alien King saw Wang Wei looking at the environment of their planet along the way, and asked curiously: "Is there no such place on your planet?" Wang Wei shook his head slightly: "It's not that there is no such place. In fact, we have also imagined living like you, but the number of humans and other creatures on the planet we live in is quite large. If we live like you, I'm afraid there is no way to meet the needs."

Although the technological level of the Plant Planet is not low, Wang Wei has discovered through observation that the number of people on this planet is not large. For a planet that is not much different from the Earth, the population is only one-tenth of that of the Earth. This is enough to show how peaceful and quiet it is here.

On the way to the palace of the plant planet, the pleasant chirping of various beautiful birds and the walls made of flowers and vines on the roadside made Wang Wei amazed.

"King of the Plant Aliens, your country is built very beautifully, and your people are really ingenious."

Hearing Wang Wei's praise, the Plant King also showed a gratified smile on his face: "They don't have the same warlike ideas as the creatures on other planets. The reason they elected a king is that they hope that someone can stand up and make judgments on some bigger things."

Wang Wei strongly agrees with the ideas of the people on the plant planet. In fact, there can be no war where resources are not scarce.

Those who really want to start a war mostly do so because of the scarcity of resources and the ambitions of those in power.

But none of these exist on the plant planet, so they can naturally build their homes peacefully and not do anything that would make others feel uncomfortable or hurt others.

However, we cannot ensure that everyone will have such an idea. Everyone is different, so their ideas will naturally be different.

This is the fundamental reason for establishing a country and electing rulers.

After arriving at the palace of the plant planet, Wang Wei separated from the king of the plant planet. He was taken by a beautiful girl to a palace specially for guests to rest.

The girl politely introduced to Wang Wei: "The king has just returned and there are still many things to deal with. Please take a rest here. We will hold a welcoming ceremony for the king tonight, and you are also invited to attend!"

Wang Wei nodded slightly and said that he did not need anyone's service. He could let the girl leave first and he could rest alone.

The girl didn't seem to expect that Wang Wei didn't need anyone to serve him. She was stunned for a while before nodding: "If you need anything, you can call me at the first time. I'll be waiting outside."

Wang Wei didn't want to chase him away. Maybe the other party had a mission to accomplish and didn't have to stay just to serve him.

So, after Wang Wei simply washed up, he lay down to rest.

Perhaps because the air quality of this planet was so good and the environment was so quiet, Wang Wei finally had a good sleep.

In the evening, Wang Wei attended a ceremony held by the Plant Planet to welcome the Plant Star King. Everyone was very happy at the ceremony. After worshiping and congratulating the Plant Star King, they started a carnival.

Seeing them so happy and living a carefree life, which was so different from the lifestyle of the insects, Wang Wei once again felt the wonder of biodiversity.

He was not the protagonist of this carnival.

But when the people of the Plant Planet knew that he was a distinguished guest invited by the King of the Plant Planet, they became very friendly to him.

When the carnival was over, the Plant Alien King asked him to have a good rest. After he finished his official business tomorrow, he would take Wang Wei to find the parasitic plant.

"On our planet, we don't have much affection for this kind of parasitic plant, because parasitic plants kill animals and also have an impact on the parasitic plants themselves, so we don't have any good feelings towards this kind of creature itself."

Of course Wang Wei could understand their thoughts, but he still thanked the Plant Alien King.

the next day.

Wang Wei rested in the palace and learned about the general environment of the plant planet and their living habits from the girl who served him.

On the plant planet, they also pay more attention to farming, but they pay more attention to protecting the environment. Even if they farm, they will not overdo it, so their planet can always maintain a green environment.

Until the King of the Plant Alien sent someone to invite Wang Wei over.

Wang Wei then followed the Plant Alien King and his guards to a canyon some distance away from the palace to look for the parasitic plant he most wanted to see.

On the way, the King of the Plant Alien introduced this parasitic plant to Wang Wei.

"This parasitic plant is called the Ghost Vine. You may have never seen a similar plant before, but it is actually very aggressive. It looks no different from an ordinary vine, but it will catch animals that approach it, strangle them to death, and then pull them to its roots, where it survives by devouring the flesh and blood of the animals."

"Plants parasitized by the ghost vine will become unable to breathe due to the ghost vine's constant entanglement, and may eventually be strangled to death by the ghost vine. At that time, the ghost vine will leave the parasitic plant and look for the next parasitic plant!"

"Will the ghost vine reproduce quickly?" Wang Wei looked at the plant alien king.

He guessed that the reproduction speed of this ghost vine should be very slow, so it is impossible for it to spread all over the plant planet, so they had to come to such a remote place to look for traces of the ghost vine.

Sure enough, just as he imagined, the ghost vine actually used its own vines to pierce the body of the parasitic plant and coexist with the parasitic plant.

When the nutrients of the parasitic plant are completely absorbed by it, it will switch to another plant to continue parasitizing. It has no instinct to reproduce at all.

If the ghost vine cannot find its next parasitic plant, it will completely wither and die, without causing any impact on the environment or other creatures living on the planet.

"If that's true, then it's safer than the striped worms we've seen."

After listening to the introduction of the King of the Plant Alien, Wang Wei suddenly thought that there seemed to be a similar vine on Earth. The two looked similar, but in fact they were not the same thing at all.

"There is also a similar creature on our planet. However, on our planet, the plants that also rely on parasitism for survival will not cause damage to the parasitic plants like the ghost vine does."

"They have a more complementary relationship. The vines will parasitize on the plants, relying on the height of the parasitic plants to obtain more nutrients without destroying the parasitic plants themselves!"

The Plant Alien King was also curious after hearing this: "Are there many plants on your planet?"

Wang Wei smiled and nodded: "In fact, our planet is not much different from your planet on the surface, except that our planet has more water sources."

"Our planet looks like a green and blue planet from space."

The King of the Plant Aliens became even more curious and asked Wang Wei why they had to come to space and travel between different planets since their planet was so beautiful.

Wang Wei's answer was: "Although our planet is very beautiful, we are all very interested in the civilizations of other planets in space. We hope to learn from them and thus strengthen our planet and make it even stronger."

The Plant Alien King tactfully did not ask any further questions. After all, this matter had nothing to do with him.

At this time, the guards brought by the Plant Alien King discovered the location of the ghost vine and immediately notified them. They were also ready to go over and take a look.
