Ice Age: I can control plant growth

Chapter 9: Appearing as a saint in front of others!

"Lao Li, we are not questioning your trust.

But the importance of this matter is too great to ignore, as food is crucial to our future survival.”

Cheng Cheng looked at Li Mu with complicated eyes. In fact, he was more willing to believe the truth of this matter.

This way, he no longer had to worry about suffering from hunger in the future.

"I understand that you may not be able to accept it now, but let me prove it to you with my actions, and then you will understand."

Li Mu firmly believed that seeing with one's own eyes was worth a thousand words. As long as he demonstrated his abilities once, Cheng Cheng and Asao would completely dispel their doubts.

Li Mu took out the prepared Chinese cabbage seeds and flower pot from his schoolbag, scattered the seeds into the flower pot, poured a little warm water on it, and gently pointed his palm at the flower pot.

A bright green light began to shine, and as Li Mu's mind pushed it, the green light fell on the soil in the flowerpot.

In just a moment, the seed grew from a sprout to the size of a palm.

A pot of chicken feather vegetables that can often be seen in the vegetable market appeared in front of the three people!

Cheng Cheng and Asao widened their eyes, looked at Ji Mao Cai in disbelief, and then looked at Li Mu.

Then he stood up suddenly.

"No, you are serious!"

"I thought you were just bragging and was ready to forgive you, but it turns out you really have supernatural powers!"

Cheng Cheng couldn't believe what was happening before his eyes. It only took three seconds to grow the seeds into Chinese cabbage!

Three seconds! Not even as long as the Barbarian King's.

"Okay, kid, I'll hang out with you from now on!"

Ah Sao also said from the side.

"Keep a low profile, keep a low profile. Only the three of us need to know about this matter. If you encounter other survivors in the future, don't let anyone know!"

Although Li Mu enjoyed the feeling of showing off in front of others, he knew that this secret must be kept well hidden.

At least we can't let others know now. As for when we have enough ability to protect ourselves in the future, that's another matter.

"Can you make any plant grow and mature quickly?"

Asao asked.

"So far, I have tried tomatoes and Chinese cabbage, and both are fine. I haven't tried the others yet, but they should be fine."

Although Li Mu has not tried other plants yet, he has some guesses about his own abilities.

The green light that appears when the ability is activated is like the wood spiritual power in the novels of immortal cultivation. It can quickly replenish all the nutrients needed for plant growth and shorten the growth time of the plant.

However, based on the experience of tomato wilting, this rapid growth will consume the vitality of the plant itself, so Li Mu cannot use this ability unlimitedly on the same plant and needs to control it moderately.

"Then our food problem will be solved in the future. With just a few seeds, you can let us eat fresh vegetables."

Cheng Cheng said happily.

"Yes, and we can also try to grow other crops, such as rice, wheat, etc.

This way we can not only be self-sufficient, but also have surplus food to exchange for other supplies when we meet other survivors in the future.”

Ah Sao also said excitedly.

Li Mu nodded, and his heart was full of hope. With his ability, their lives would become better and they no longer had to worry about food.

However, he also understood that this ability was not omnipotent.

Although he can grow a large amount of food, other necessities such as daily necessities and medicines cannot be obtained through this ability.

Therefore, they also need to find other ways to solve these problems.

"The arrival of the Ice Age only paralyzed the power system, but fuel engines and other things could still be used normally.

Besides, it is only extremely cold now. Isn't it often minus 50 degrees in the Northeast? Even without modern technology to keep warm, there must be other survivors."

Li Mu was very clear-headed. The Ice Age had only just begun for ten days. As long as there was enough food and heating supplies and they stayed indoors honestly, survival would not be a big problem.

The days ahead will be difficult. After another half a month, when the food runs out and humans have no way to keep warm, they will face the problem of going out to find supplies.

The severe cold weather outside will cause a sharp decrease in the number of surviving humans. China's population of 1.4 billion will probably be reduced by 70% to 80%!
But these have little to do with Li Mu. With his current ability, he has no problem protecting three people, but it is absolutely impossible to rescue others.

If he meets other survivors in the future, he will observe carefully and only save those who should be saved. As for those who are not worthy of help, he will let them fend for themselves.

He didn't want the story of "The Farmer and the Snake" to happen to him.

After the three of them had rested, they began to carefully check every corner of the villa to ensure that no important information was missed.

After some exploration, they found that the villa had three floors.

It doesn't look like someone lives there all year round, but rather like a vacation spot.

Many items in the villa are brand new and do not show many signs of having been lived in.

The first floor is mainly a living room and dining room, and the kitchen is on the right. The kitchen is fully equipped with natural gas and a common earthen stove in rural areas.

Various seasonings and kitchen utensils were neatly stacked, many of which were even unopened.

The second floor is a spacious flat equipped with various exercise equipment, a swimming pool, and even a barbecue grill, making people feel like they are in a resort.

There are seven or eight rooms of different sizes on the third floor, and the decoration of each room is full of luxury and taste.

The master bedroom is especially luxurious, and the spacious balcony offers a panoramic view of the entire villa's courtyard.

However, the most surprising thing is the basement of the villa.

The entire basement is about several hundred square meters and is filled with various daily necessities, including clothes, emergency medicines, wine on the wine racks, and various domestic brand-name wines. The only regret is that there is no meat.

This discovery undoubtedly solved the three people's supply problems.

The life of rich people is so good!
“This place is really amazing. I never thought we would be able to live in a house like this one day!”

Cheng Cheng couldn't hide his excitement.

Li Mu was also very emotional. From only being able to rent a house to living in a big villa now, the gap is quite big. If the Ice Age had not come, they might never have lived in such a house in their lifetime.

The end of the world not only brings suffering, but also breaks the previous class stratification. For capable people, the end of the world may be a carnival party!
Cheng Cheng and Asao couldn't help laughing after hearing what Li Mu said.

"Yes, although the Ice Age brought disasters, it also gave us new opportunities," said Asao.

The three of them smiled at each other, all full of expectations for their future life.

"It's time to eat. Now that we've moved to a new home, we have to have a good housewarming party."
