Chapter 915: Chapter 920: The Siberian Husky is taking revenge on her
In the cave.
It seemed to have been deliberately cleaned, and even a beast skin had been laid over the originally bare stone bed.
Su Tang lay sprawled on the bed in the shape of a star, not wanting to move at all.
There were no torches lit inside the cave; it was pitch black. After a day of labor, in such an environment, she wasn’t even scared, just overwhelmingly sleepy.
Su Tang was very tired, but she kept feeling something underneath her that prevented her from sleeping, and she was too lazy to move. 𝖓𝔬𝔳𝔭𝖚𝖇.𝔠𝔬𝖒
So she just lay there for quite a while.
Finally, Su Tang couldn’t stand it anymore!
She reached under, grabbing and pulling out the thing beneath her.
It turned out to be the Xiluo tree branch she had snapped off in the forest that afternoon.
After a Xiluo tree branch is broken, it secretes a crystal-mud-like transparent substance from the break, which is soft and can be shaped at will.
But now, when Su Tang touched it, the transparent substance had hardened somewhat, gaining some elasticity and seeming to have become much sturdier.
Su Tang suddenly sat up in bed, using the last light of day to carefully examine the Xiluo tree branch in her hand.
After looking for a long time and not figuring anything out, Su Tang decided to use the system to identify it.
Thinking of the system, Su Tang again remembered Erha, her mischievous pet that she had stuffed into the space after leaving Taoyuan. Having been cooped up for so long, who knew how it would behave once let out?
"System, help me look up information on the Xiluo tree and what its sap is used for?"
[Ding!! Information related to your query has been found. Would you like to spend 10,000 exchange points to view 1/1?]
Almost the instant after Su Tang’s words fell, the answer panel popped up.
The sound was so intense it struck right at Su Tang’s mind.
However, she became silent for a moment when she saw that the question actually cost ten thousand exchange points, and it would also consume her once-a-month access to the Advanced Survival Q&A.
She suspected Erha was getting back at her.
"That expensive? Then forget it, I won’t look at it."
As she spoke, Su Tang made a motion as if she was going to close the system.
[Ding~ An unknown error has occurred with the system, it has been corrected for you. Please re-enter your query.]
A flash of realization swept through the depths of Su Tang’s eyes, a hint of amusement lifting the corners of her mouth.
"Look up the related information on the Xiluo tree."
[Ding~ Information related to your query has been found. Would you like to spend 1,000 exchange points to view? 3/4]
This price seemed much more reasonable.
Su Tang nodded with satisfaction, "Yes."
Afterward, the information about the Xiluo tree appeared on the light screen panel.
Xiluo Tree: Unique species to Xiluo Forest, also known as ’the weeping tree.’ Xiluo trees have a high oil content and are very flammable, while also producing a substance called Xiluo Glue, which can change shape freely. Once dried, it is very tough and resistant to cutting, but it is susceptible to fire.
The introduction was brief, but Su Tang felt like she had stumbled upon a treasure.
From this description, it was practically a replica of the rubber tree, but even more useful.
If it really were a rubber tree, the process of refining the sap into rubber would be more complicated.
While the Xiluo tree didn’t need to worry about this at all. Once broken, it automatically secretes a non-sticky substance like glue, which is extremely convenient!
Eagerly, Su Tang inquired, "System, can the Xiluo tree be transplanted? What’s the survival rate? How is it done?"
[Ding~ Information related to your query has been found, would you...]
"Yes, yes, yes."
Xiluo trees are easy to grow. Simply bury the broken branches in the soil.
