Chapter 54: The Experience of Failure
"Failure experience..."
Mu Zhong rubbed the cover of his notebook. He felt a little sad about what Master Pule said. Although he didn't know much, he could clearly feel that Master Pule disagreed with his parents raising rabbits.
Shaking his head: "Forget it, it's other people's family affairs, and it's a different world version. Even if I know the whole story, I probably won't be able to change anything."
The sky is a little dark, and the wind is a bit strong here in Duoerpo. It looks like it is going to rain, but it doesn't seem like it will rain at all.
While observing Duoerpo's movements, Mu Zhong read this note.
The first half of the notes are very trivial. They are all about raising rabbits, failing to raise rabbits, raising rabbits again, and failing again.
Mu Zhong had a headache when he read it, but the words above made him feel funny, "Are these two fools? They don't know how to raise rabbits, and they raise so many rabbits at one time. No wonder they will go bankrupt."
In order to raise multi-eared rabbits, they spent a lot of money to build a rabbit garden. It is really hard to understand.
【Tianxuan Calendar Year 731
April 3: I bought fifteen cute rabbits. Their coats are very beautiful and I am very happy.
April 6: The rabbits refused to eat grass and one of them starved to death. We were so sad that we braised it.
April 7th: Two more died, but we still treated them as the last one.
April 8: The hot pot banquet was held today.
April 9: The last one died.
April 12: Bought twelve cute rabbits. The rabbits are quite strong. We believe that we will be able to feed them this time.
April 16th: Alas, it failed again. While I was stewing the rabbit, I suddenly remembered what it looked like in life, and I kept crying.
······】
——Most of the content in the first half of the note is like this.
So Mu Zhong was a little confused for a while. Looking at the contents of the notes, it was better to say that he was eating rabbits than raising rabbits...
"Well...this couple looks quite cute."
Mu Zhong didn't believe that the other party deliberately used light-hearted sentences to record those things. It was very possible that the other party was very interesting.
Then, the contents of the lower half of the notebook began to mutate.
【Tianxuan Calendar Year 733
July 6: The multi-eared rabbit ate the small dwarf fruit that accidentally got mixed into the fresh grass.
…
July 15: It is certain that multi-eared rabbits like to eat dwarf fruits very much.
…
July 23: This batch of rabbits all died. Dwarf fruits cannot be used as the staple food of multi-eared rabbits.
…
October 3: We blended the dwarf fruits into paste and mixed it with the grass.
October 4th: The multi-eared rabbit eats.
…
November 16th: The rabbits began to hit the guardrails and walls crazily. By that night, a total of eleven rabbits were dead.]
The following contents are all like this, repeated, and then all end in failure.
The last line of the notebook is:
【Tianxuan Calendar Year 734
February 5: She also died.]
…
The note ends abruptly here. Although the previous content is trivial, it can make people feel the happiness of the couple from between the lines. However, the result is...
Mu Zhong closed the book and sighed softly: "For them, the two of them are happy when they raise rabbits together..."
He was a little confused. This book was not like a notebook recording failed experiences. It should be said that it contained more elements of showing affection, although the result was very sad.
After feeling sentimental for a while, Mu Zhong put the book into his magic pocket and continued to observe the movements on Duoerpo.
Thinking of something recorded in his notes, he searched for a small bag of dwarf fruits and cut a bundle of grass near sunset.
Return to the forest cabin.
Mu Zhong went to the kitchen to find a bowl and a wooden pestle, and mashed the collected dwarf fruits.
He was still mumbling: "Mash the dwarf fruits into a paste and mix it with the grass..."
"This is equivalent to a food attractant, right? In that case, I can mix it with carrots, right?"
Just do it as soon as you think of it, and soon the finished product will be out.
Judging from the surface appearance, carrots, tomatoes, and grass were originally covered in muddy, mushy dwarf fruits——
"Looks like a bad habit."
"Well...it's not me who eats it anyway."
Mu Zhong put three dishes of feed into the rabbit cage. As he watched, the rabbit did not dare to eat, so after doing this, he went to do other things.
——The next day——
As soon as he woke up, Mu Zhong couldn't wait to run to the first floor to check the eating situation of the multi-eared rabbit.
The sound of walking woke up the multi-eared rabbit. The rabbit hurriedly squeezed into the corner, shivering...
Wooden Bell squatted in front of the rabbit cage, and the sight before him made him very happy: "It has eaten, there is less fodder, carrots, and tomatoes."
"Is this the first step completed?"
He stood up, stretched, and then his expression became serious: "According to what is written in the notes, the next step is to go crazy."
The rabbit will hit the wall.
This kind of thing is very complicated and may be a psychological problem or an environmental problem.
For example, if you are in a bad mood, you hit a wall; if there is no hope in your life, you may just hit a wall; or it may be because the content of a certain substance in your body is too low; the environment is too depressing and you cannot bear it, etc.
Mu Zhong only had this rabbit on hand, so he couldn't check so many possibilities of death. He was not like that heartless couple who bought another rabbit after a litter died.
But there is nothing we can do now.
"Forget it, just take it one step at a time."
"Having said that, multi-eared rabbits don't seem to be expensive. Even if you raise more than a dozen at a time, for a wealthy noble, it shouldn't go bankrupt..."
Can't think of a clue.
"Perhaps it is the result of many reasons, and the multi-eared rabbit is just the most conspicuous among them."
——Doerpo——
Mu Zhong’s job as an assistant is to ‘observe and record data about multi-eared rabbits’.
However, after such a long period of observation, part of the data has already been collected enough, and it is meaningless to continue.
Looking at the descriptions listed in his notebook, Mu Zhong felt bored again for the first time in a long time.
He shook off the notebook in his hand: "I don't understand how Master Pule improves magic based on these data..."
In order to relieve his boredom, he took out the language textbook and read it for a while, feeling even more bored.
"..."
Raising his head and looking at the sparse leaves above his head, the wooden clock suddenly remembered something.
He... seems to know a 'leaf-falling technique'.
Heh...defoliation technique.
Mu Zhong slapped his forehead sadly: "I must be so bored that I would use this magic to create fallen leaves."
"If you have this skill, you might as well see how many magic tricks I can do."
There were a few things he didn't use every day, and he had almost forgotten them.
Taking out the origin pocket watch, his mind moved, and nineteen magic spells appeared in front of Mu Zhong's eyes.
With a quick glance, he noticed one of the magic spells: plant growth.
This magic can speed up the growth of plants, but it requires 'fertilization'.
Things like 'fertilizer'... are a bit inelegant in real form, so after learning this magic, he has never used it.
"Anyway, I'm so free..."
After thinking about it for a while, Mu Zhong picked up some rabbit excrement nearby, then found a small dwarf fruit plant, and buried the picked things in the soil under the plant...
“Plants spawn!”
The magic is released, and the white light sweeps across the target in a wave shape. The plant emits soft green light instantly, then sprouts, leaves, and fruits...
"oh--"
