Chapter 1006 This Is Discrimination
The pistils could be removed within a quarter of an hour, or 15 minutes, of the bone lotus flower blooming.
If one delayed it too much, it would be very easy to be late.
By that time, the pistils would not be available.
Qi Zhi’an reached out and tried to take the pistils off, but just as his finger touched the stamen of the bone lotus flower, the originally transparent petals snapped shut! It closed up! Wrapped his finger in it!
There was a moment of consternation.
The old man and Huo Zijun were both stunned.
This flower could close at will?! What kind of strange plant was it?!
Everything from its flowering to closing just now showed that it was definitely not an ordinary plant.
There were so many plants in this world that the existence of this plant was not strange.
However, it was shocking that the open flower could close, and so fast too.
Was this a mimosa?
Qi Zhi’an’s expression was interesting. He kept the same pose as before, with an embarra.s.sed face.
After a while, he pulled his finger out.
Then, he looked at Xia Xibei.
The old man and Huo Zijun also followed and looked over.
Xia Xibei pointed to herself, “Shall I do it?”
Qi Zhi’an looked very conflicted.
“Yes.”
His mind was still lingering on the excitement from the bone lotus flower just now.
Let Sister do it!
Qi Zhi’an didn’t know what expression he should use to face Xia Xibei. Ever since she appeared, these spiritual plants were not treating him well.
This was simply terrible!
What kind of magic power did Xia Xibei have in her? What magic power did Xia Xibei have that made these plants so crazy?
Before, those plants were very arrogant, but the performance of the bone lotus flower today completely changed his impression!
Looking at the reaction of the bone lotus flower just now, Xia Xibei was a little embarra.s.sed. She also did not expect that it would be so capricious. “Um… Let me do it then.”
Qi Zhilan nodded and moved out of the way.
Elder Huo and Huo Zijun looked at each other, their moods very complicated.
This plant could even pick people!
This was too incredible!
They really had an eye-opening experience today!
Even Huo Zijun was shocked.
Although he knew that Xia Xibei was different from normal people and had magical abilities, he was dumbfounded when he saw it close-up with his own eyes today.
This was too exaggerated!
The old man looked at Xia Xibei with a complicated gaze, then looked back at Huo Zijun with a little frustration and dislike.
When he met his grandfather’s eyes, Huo Zijun was confused.
Xia Xibei ignored their reactions and walked to the side of the water vat, then reached out to touch the bone lotus flower.
The transparent petals wrapped around the pink stamens; they looked as delicate as a work of art, enchanting people.
When Xia Xibei’s hand was about to reach it, the bone lotus flower snapped open again!
This scene made the other three people’s expressions very wonderful.
Qi Zhilan was even more helpless.
This was blatant discrimination!
These days, even spiritual plants could discriminate?
If other people in the family knew about this, they would definitely suspect that he was lying.
Xia Xibei smiled as she gently bent her fingers and tapped the stem of the bone lotus flower, which shook a little, as if it was pouting.
Although its swaying was not dramatic, everyone was silent.
It was too much!
Xia Xibei reached out to pick the pistils, quickly removing them.
Then, as if the petals lost their vitality instantly, they fell down and landed in the water.
Xia Xibei handed the pistils to Qi Zhi’an and asked, “Do you want the petals?” Qi Zhi’an hesitated for a moment.
“Do you want them?”
