   A pure biotechnology novel, unlike anything I've ever read before, it sends chills down my spine. It describes a potential form of warfare: agricultural warfare. This reminds me of the recent spy theft of parent seeds; could the author have made that deduction? The author uses top-notch agricultural science knowledge to construct a possible apocalyptic scenario. Most strikingly, the author doesn't just write wildly imaginative stories; every genetic technology described might already be a reality, either now or in the future. It left me with a chill down my spine. Could the author be the protagonist himself?

   Liang Dakuan stepped onto the slippery moss as he ascended the rock crevices. The sight before him made his pupils shrink—in the crevice beneath the jujube tree, clusters of violets burst forth from the soil like iron plows, their serrated leaves naturally forming the character for "poison." The flower stems, as thick as a middle finger, were covered in a purplish-blue sap that felt sticky to the touch like indigo ointment. Suddenly, a ginseng spirit's tendrils wrapped around his wrist, pointing to the leaves, and exclaimed, "Look! These plowshare leaves are 'boiler bulldozers,' specifically designed to push aside pus and blood clots under the skin, like sending a 'squad of excavators' to an inflamed finger!"
