Chapter 248 The Efficacy of Ginkgo Fruit
Awooooo~!
The wolf now felt weak, pitiful, and helpless.
The old man's huge claws pressed it firmly to the ground, and the scimitar-like claws pried open its mouth, forcibly stuffing the poisonous fruit into its mouth.
It struggled desperately, trying to spit out the fruit.
But after Cangnian stuffed the fruit into its mouth, he slapped it on the head, almost making it faint.
Once the brain shuts down and recovers, it panics terribly!
The fruit that could poison a wolf is no longer in its mouth!
Finished!
The wolf now had only one thought in its mind.
It had personally witnessed how evolved creatures that ate the fruit died instantly!
Now that it has eaten this fruit, isn't it doomed?
Thinking of this, the wolf stopped struggling, lay on the ground, closed its eyes, and waited to die.
But after a while, when it was almost asleep, it suddenly woke up with a start.
I didn't die!
And...it seems like my breathing is easier?
"It seems that the properties of ginkgo fruit have not changed since before the spiritual energy revival. After being thoroughly cooked, it will no longer be poisonous."
I just don't know if the medicinal effects have been preserved.
At this moment, Qin Changyi glanced at the time on his mechanical watch and said in a deep voice.
"Ow~!"
Hearing this, Cangnian nodded, then gently patted the wolf and asked it in a firm tone if it felt any changes in itself.
It's good news that it's not toxic, but it's only useful to him if it's non-toxic and retains the medicinal properties of the ginkgo fruit.
Awoo~?
However, although the wolf understood the general meaning of his howl, it could not express its own feelings, so it shrank back in fear.
"Tiger, what's the point of asking? Since it's no longer poisonous, we can just eat it!"
If you're worried, I'll test the medicine on you!
Yi Chen, who was standing to the side, said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Cangnian finally came to his senses.
Yup!
Once you've confirmed it's not poisonous, you can eat it yourself and experience its effects for yourself!
"Let me eat first. Evolved creatures have different constitutions than humans."
What the wolves can handle might be a burden for us.
I'll eat one. If there's any problem, Yichen, please treat it immediately.
At this moment, Qin Changyi, who was standing to the side, maintained his usual cautious style and offered his suggestions.
"That works too. I think even if we humans are the worst, at least at the third tier we should be comparable to a second-tier evolved creature, right?"
"Uncle Qin, you can begin. I'll be ready to treat you at any time."
Yichen nodded.
Seeing this, Cang Nian was no longer in a hurry to eat it himself.
Anyway, there are plenty of these common ginkgo fruits.
Moreover, I'm not in a hurry.
After Qin Changyi finished speaking, he took a big bite of a ginkgo fruit that had been cooked, peeled, pried open, and had its green membrane removed.
"How's it going? Is it delicious?"
Bai Jue, who was standing to the side, asked curiously.
"The texture is soft and delicate, like water chestnut cake, and the taste is light and slightly sweet. It's quite delicious."
Qin Changyi swallowed the entire ginkgo fruit and gave a very serious comment.
"I can feel the effects of the medicine. How should I put it... my lungs feel cool and my breathing is smooth... perhaps it's improving my lung function."
Two and a half minutes later, Qin Changyi took a few deep breaths and then expressed his feelings.
"That's it? I remember that the original function of ginkgo fruit is to clear the lungs and stop coughing, right? This is too weak!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Jue couldn't help but complain.
Hearing this, Cang Nian felt that his expectations had been dashed.
Although this ordinary ginkgo fruit is certainly not as powerful as that specially mutated large ginkgo fruit.
However, a tree cannot bear two kinds of fruit, except for the pine tree, which has a special ability that allows it to change.
The ordinary ginkgo fruit improves lung function, and the larger ginkgo fruit probably has the same effect.
"Uh...is it possible that one isn't enough?"
Aren't there still so many left?
"Maybe if we eat a few more, the effect will be even better?"
At this moment, Yi Chen snapped his fingers and proposed a possibility.
"Ow~!"
Upon hearing this, Cang Nian also felt that this was indeed possible, so he let out a howl, signaling Qin Changyi to continue eating.
So Qin Changyi began to stuff ginkgo nuts into his mouth one by one.
Because this stuff was a bit gritty in his throat, he drank a lot of water while eating it.
If it weren't for the significant increase in his appetite after evolving, he wouldn't be able to eat many before feeling full.
Even so, he ate for quite a while.
Just when everyone thought that Yi Chen's guess was wrong, Qin Changyi's Adam's apple bobbed and he was stunned.
"What's wrong, Uncle Qin? Can't you eat anymore?"
Yi Chen raised an eyebrow and asked.
"No...it's because I ate ginkgo nuts that brought about a qualitative change!"
Qin Changyi swallowed hard, then a look of joy appeared on his face.
Upon hearing this, Cang Nian's spirits lifted.
"What kind of qualitative change? What are the effects?"
Yi Chen quickly pressed for an answer.
"I can't really explain it, let me just demonstrate it!"
Qin Changyi wanted to describe it, but felt that the feeling was hard to put into words, so he continued.
As he spoke, he went to the side and saw a rockery and pond in the courtyard. He then approached a large stone that looked like a millstone.
The artificial mountain at Chanlan Temple is not the kind of fake stone found in urban residential areas that is made of steel frame covered with several layers of cement bags and then painted. It is actually made of real bluestone blocks.
Upon arriving at the large rock, Qin Changyi took a deep breath, as if he were preparing something.
Huh~!
The next second, he suddenly blew air forward!
Then, a bluish-white light, as thin as a cicada's wing, burst forth from his mouth!
The bluish-white light, like a sharp sword, pierced through the bluestone, leaving a deep chisel mark on the artificial mountain behind it before disappearing.
"Holy crap! Talking trash!"
Upon seeing this, Bai Jue let out a strange cry.
"This is a good thing! Although I could easily smash this stone with one claw."
But this is a ranged attack, and it's quite fast.
Most importantly, it adds a powerful killing method that is difficult for the opponent to defend against.
Its usefulness in battle cannot be reflected simply by its displayed power!
Seeing this, Cangnian also became excited.
Improving lung function alone might enhance athletic performance, potentially increasing explosiveness and endurance.
But if that's all there is to it, then the benefits of ginkgo fruit are somewhat of a waste for me.
After all, if it's simply about improving attributes, one's own [Statistics Master] ability is undoubtedly the most professional.
What I lack now is not numerical value, but a wide variety of attack methods!
Once you've eaten enough ginkgo fruits and achieved a qualitative change, you can undoubtedly make up for your shortcomings!
