30. Grass new ding
With no internet or even electricity, such nights are boring.
Yang Shubao has nothing to do but lie on the roof and watch the starry sky, fortunately, the starry sky in the wetland park is very beautiful.
Endless brilliance hangs in the dark night, the stars are not one color, there are orange-red, pale yellow, and green, and the stars of the rainbow country are also colored.
After staring at the night sky for a while, he had a new way to entertain himself, shaking his head vigorously and then looking at the stars, feeling that the sky was full of stars shaking, which was actually quite interesting.
Single young people have to have fun with themselves.
Before going to bed, he took the goblins out for a walk as usual, and there was nothing to gain except for several pimples bitten by mosquitoes, and the grassland at night was very calm, and there was nothing to defend against as the dryads said.
As he was about to go back to the hut, Nate pointed to a scattered forest and said, "City Lord, there is a pond in that forest, I saw it during the day, do you want to go and see it?"
Yang Shubao shone the bright flashlight, and the scattered and chaotic acacia trees were intertwined and terrifying, and he said categorically: "Don't go and look at it, what's so beautiful about the grove?"
They turned around and walked back, looking back as they walked Lao Yang, and looked at it a few times but didn't see anything.
Nate asked, "City Lord, what are you looking at?"
Yang Shubao muttered, "I always feel that there is something behind us." ”
Growing up, he felt something was wrong behind him whenever he walked at night or was in a dark environment.
Walking at night is a horrible thing!
After returning to the tree of life, his feeling has changed, it is still very dark, but he is much more steady, he arranged for the goblins to keep vigil, last night there was a matter of hanging corpses in the sky, he was afraid that the iron beast would make some small moves tonight.
Nate kept the first half of the night, Danny kept the second half of the night, and Old Yang slept soundly.
In the morning he woke up to the sound of a thump, rhythmic, which swirled around the hut inside and out, tirelessly.
The air in the house was sticky, steamy, and humid, and he knew it was raining again.
Habitually lying on the bed for a while, he felt really bored and got up lazily.
Pushing open the window, the prairie was foggy.
The foggy world was quiet, except for the occasional chirping of birds, and small raindrops knocked on the roof and flowed down the eaves, and he watched the raindrops bloom like crystal flowers.
Chaos, ethereal, ethereal, an illusion that he was abandoned by the world began to brew in his heart.
It seemed that the whole world was gone, and he couldn't help but start thinking about a few questions: Who am I? Where am I? What is space? What is time? Where did space and time come from and where will they go?
Several questions eventually turned into one, what to eat this morning?
The parrot couple flapped their wings and flew in through the window, and when they entered the house, they flew very affectionately to Yang Shubao's shoulders and stood still, and then began to flap their wings vigorously to shake off the raindrops on their bodies.
It's okay now, you don't need to wash your face, Yang Shubao is sober.
Couple parrots can't speak, but they are very fond of calling, chirping and squeaking, so that the two parrots entered the house and made him feel that there was a flock of ducks in the house.
Their cries don't have any meaning, they just like to call blindly, Yang Shubao shook his head helplessly and took out two eggs to make an omelette to eat, and then saw him break the eggs and the parrot couple chirped and flew away.
Couple parrot eggs are a bit like eggs, and they may have misassociations.
The golden omelet is paired with dried meat, and Yang Shubao boils a pot of water to brew a bowl of milk cereal, and breakfast is just a matter of dealing with it.
The light rain continued on and off, and he went out to ask Nate, "Was it okay last night?"
Nate said, "Thank you Lord for your concern, it's fine, we slept well." ”
Yang Shubao: (O_o)??
The rain moistens the vegetation and plants grow unbridled during the rainy season.
The elephant grass expanded very quickly, and Yang Shubao saw that many grass sprouts had grown in the grass that had been planted, and there were also grass sprouts on the peripheral land, and they could be pumped to twenty or thirty centimeters in just one or two days, and the growth rate was amazing.
There was a rustling sound in the grass, and he thought it was a hare, after all, this was a grassland, and it was too normal to have a hare.
As a result, he followed the sound and looked over, and there was a big snail lying on the pole of the elephant grass!
The snail was about the size of his slap and had a cone-shaped shell on its back, which was the African giant snail.
Seeing this thing, Yang Shubao pouted in disgust, and he didn't know where they came from, maybe they were brought by the elephant grass, or they may have stayed on this grassland and now climbed on the elephant grass.
He had seen this kind of snail in a university textbook, and many countries in Asia and Europe were guarding against it as an invasive species, and these snails were particularly edible and long, and some subspecies could grow up to 20 centimeters long, like a small rabbit - a rabbit that could run and jump, not the kind on a human body.
The big snail eats everything, crops, trees, fruit trees, vegetables, flowers and other plants are all on their diet, they will eat the corpses of their companions when they are hungry, and the big snails in the city will eat and digest cement when they are really hungry!
Europe has a tradition of eating snails, but large snails cannot be eaten, it is an intermediate host for many animal parasites and pathogenic bacteria, especially tuberculosis and eosinophilic meningitis, which have to be prevented.
Big snails are useless, but there are quite a few of them, and Yang Shubao walked around in the grass and saw more than a dozen of them.
This has to be controlled, the African giant snail can lay hundreds of eggs at a time, the hatching rate is super high, the fecundity is extremely strong, once they flood then his carefully cultivated anti-mosquito garden is finished.
Old Yang wanted to catch the snail with his own hands, but then he thought of the rock python, so he said to Nate: "Go and call the python over and let it prey on this snail." ”
Nate was embarrassed and said, "The little snail is so cute......"
"Why don't you let that python eat you both?" Yang Shubao sneered.
"I'm going to call it over. Nate turned and ran.
It just so happened that the rock python was short of food, and Yang Shubao decided to let it deal with the big snail.
The big snails are also shrewd, and they specialize in staring at the young shoots of elephant grass to eat.
Lao Yang also thought that this sprout was good, so he decided to take the lead, carrying a net bag around his waist and holding a dagger around the elephant grass to dig the elephant grass sprouts for cooking.
The drizzle was hazy, the grass was soft, he was busy working step by step, the elephant grass shoots grew from the grass roots, there were a lot of them, he dug a bag out and looked around, there were still many on the grass.
So he called for the goblins to help, and the goblins were like picking up mushrooms, reaching out and plucking a grass sprout.
In this way, Yang Shubao relaxed, and he decided to tell the two goblins a fairy tale: "This fairy tale is called a little goblin pulling weeds and sprouts, there used to be a goblin sleeping in the sun in the grass, and a female goblin named Pretty Little Red Riding Hood came to the grass to pull grass sprouts, and she counted while pulling, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, ......"
