241: Mo Qiang is unconscious

Mo Qiang is unconscious

Mo Qiang wasn't being greedy instead she was being practical, though she was lucky today. Something like this happened only once in a blue moon, what if she ended up getting into trouble with another mutated animal?  0

And it was surely going to happen as neither she nor Xiao Jiao were going to stop their nature revival plans. So, Mo Qiang was in desperate need of levelling up her king of the jungle aura lest she was to face another animal like this turtle tuber. 

The turtle tuber did not move, she only stared at Mo Qiang just as Mo Qiang was thinking that the turtle tuber was going to snap that gigantic mouth of hers and bit her head off, the turtle tuber turned her neck and then picked out a big tuber that resembled an oval miniature boulder, with veins etched on it. 

  The turtle tuber clutched the tuber with her mouth before twisting her neck slowly around and then letting go of the slimy boulder.

Seeing the boulder drop, alarm bells started to run in Mo Qiang's head as she pushed the baby turtle tuber on the ground and rushed to catch the tuber. If it falls on the ground then she was going to become a goner! 

Mo Qiang did not fancy the boulder exploding and poisoning her in a manner where she will lie in this cave for the next seven days and thus jumped in the air before cradling the boulder in her arms like it was a bomb. 

"Humph!" Mo Qiang caught the tuber just in the nick of time but before she could heave a sigh of relief she realised that she had no wings on her back and without no damned wings on her back there was no way she could stay hanging mid-air. Which meant —— all hail gravity! 

" AHHHH!" Mo Qiang screamed as she twisted in the air and stretched her hands out making sure that the tuber will not receive any impact. 

And since she was in no movie with no one taking extra shots of her grand fall, Mo Qiang's back smacked on the concrete floor quite soon. 

Thud. 

With a bone-crushing noise, Mo Qiang hit the ground. The impact of her fall was so hard that her hands trembled but even so, she tried her best to make sure that her trembling hands wouldn't affect the tuber in any way, in case it exploded—— she was going to remain stuck here in this cave for seven days! 

But the thing about unlucky people was that no matter how much they were away from the edge of death somewhere something will happen and they will die. Like if a man was hanging onto a cliff for his dear life at the north pole but if he was unlucky, he will die because somebody pulled a chair at the South Pole ——the moral of the story is if you are unlucky, you are dying no matter how bad you try. 

And because Mo Qiang was in a group of unfortunate souls, the thing that she did not wish to happen was bound to happen. Thus, even if she somehow managed to save the tuber from receiving an impact at the cost of her body, something still triggered it. And the thing was —— 

A teeny tiny piece of startite's orb. 

Mo Qiang: Fck my life. 

Because her landing was hard, the dangling piece of a startite orb broke free from the long jarred end of the sharpened blue edge and then fell on the tuber causing it to hiss and froth. Mo Qiang threw her head back, while staring at the roof of the cave she arched a savage brow and questioned, " Really? Is...Is this the time for this ?" 

However, the explosion she was waiting for did not happen. Instead, the tuber only made sounds like a fissure but after a short while it went 'poof' and turned silent.

She turned to look at the turtle tuber who seemed to be watching a clown show and asked with narrowed eyes that were filled with suspicion, " You …did you hand me a tuber which was defective?" 

The turtle tuber looked at her as if she was stupid and then sighed before shaking her head. Mo Qiang was sure that somewhere, the turtle tuber was even questioning whether or not to let Mo Qiang take her baby boy.

" Tell me something like sooner!" Mo Qiang snapped, two red clouds appearing on her cheeks as she realized how embarrassing she must have looked just now trying to save a tuber which was never going to explode! 

She pushed herself from the ground and then looked at the turtle tuber before saying in a low voice, " These things just happen because of panic there is no need for you to look down at me. I am not usually this stupid." 

Though she clarified, the turtle tuber still looked at her with a suspicious expression which made Mo Qiang quite angry as she retorted, "… I am telling the truth you know?! And even if you don't believe me, you have no choice but to trust me because I am your one and only hope." 

The turtle tuber's expression was distorted as if she was waiting for another hope to arrive but seeing that it did not, she allowed Mo Qiang to save her child. 

The disease from which the baby tuber was suffering was called King's hands, though the disease had a rather fancy name, it was not at all wonderful. 

From what Mo Qiang could see on the blue screen, this disease was due to a missing gene at the time of birth which had led to the slow and stunted growth of this baby turtle tuber. Even if he was treated by the greatest vet of the imperial star, this baby might have not survived but it was all thanks to the turtle tuber's good fortune that she met Mo Qiang! 

The vet might not be able to save this child but Mo Qiang with the help of her green fingers could save this turtle tuber with ease as the green fingers can give life to new things! This means that Mo Qiang had the power to generate the missing gene inside the baby turtle tuber!
