In the evening, the military sent someone to inform that they would be able to leave for Rongcheng tomorrow, but they could only rest in Rongcheng for three days, and then they would leave after three days, and the destination was also determined, the desert in the northwest. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This news made countless people feel disappointed, originally people thought that they would be able to live a stable life when they arrived in Rongcheng, but they knew that Rongcheng was just a transit station, but the goal was the northwest, and it was to go to the desert.

This night, countless people are thinking about it, some people have already made up their minds, and they will not leave after they arrive in Rongcheng, some people are thinking about how to make a profit in Rongcheng, and some people are thinking about whether they can meet a few nobles and run from this time...

A thousand thoughts, thousands of ideas, time flies, and it is dawn in a blink of an eye.

The large army formed a long dragon, first crossed the Leopard Ridge, then crossed the Tonghe River, and then crossed the Hutou Mountain and came to the Rongcheng Plain.

At the moment before crossing Hutou Mountain, Lin Xi was holding a kind of hope, after all, the destination had arrived, but seeing the situation under Hutou Mountain, Lin Xi's hope directly turned into disappointment.

"It's almost the same as the two sides of Anrong Highway," Lin Xi muttered.

The only difference is that there is more water in the woods, which is like a swampy forest, because this is the Rongcheng Plain, which belongs to a relatively low terrain, and a lot of rain has no time to be discharged, so the water accumulates more and more.

"Looking at this situation, it seems to be even worse than Anding City."

The more water there is, the more flora and fauna will flourish, and there may not be many large animals, but there are absolutely countless mosquitoes and insects, and these are deadly killers for people, and sometimes a bite will end in death.

For such an environment, Lin Xi did not dare to neglect it, and quickly ordered Xiaogun to send people to cut down the surrounding trees, and collect wet firewood to make torches.

"At least one of the ten people must have a wet torch, the kind that must emit thick smoke, even if we will be smoked to death, we must not let mosquitoes bite." That's what Lynsey said.

After Lin Xi's team made the torches, the teams in front and behind did the same, so the road was also full of smoke in broad daylight, everyone choked and coughed, but no one dared to run out of the range of the smoke, although it was uncomfortable, small lives were more important.

The team was not fast, so they walked for three days, and a huge plaque appeared in front of the highway, with mottled lacquer words on it, and the first line read: Welcome to Rongcheng... The second line is: there are still forty-three kilometers away from Rongcheng.

When I arrived here, I could be regarded as entering the boundary of Rongcheng, and the environment here had finally improved, no longer the swampy forest just now, and there were many fewer mosquitoes.

Countless tall plants grew on both sides of the road, and Lin Xi could tell that these plants should have been planted artificially, and these plants looked quite familiar, and someone in the team was already yelling: "I'll go, are those cabbages?" How did you grow so big? ”

Lin Xi looked at it again, weren't those plants just cabbage? It's just that these cabbages are too huge, so Lin Xi didn't recognize them at once.

The height is close to fifty meters, and the diameter may be more than twenty meters, such a huge cabbage is very shocking, anyway, Lin Xi looked at it, and said in his heart How many people can such a cabbage feed? It's enough for people to eat for half a year, this is really big... Cabbage.

It's a pity that no one picked such a huge cabbage, and then went forward, Lin Xi saw some people in the cabbage field, these people pointed at Bai San, and remembered something in the book, Xu Daguang liked to join in the fun, ran over and asked, and finally came back to tell Lin Xi that it turned out that from here all the way to the urban area of Rongcheng, many new plantations were planned, and these cabbages were planted by order of the government/government, and don't look at the huge size of these cabbages, in fact, they can't be eaten at all.

There are huge fiber tendons on these cabbage leaves, just these fiber tendons are several meters thick, with the existence of this fiber tendon, ordinary people can't bite at all, even if they are deeply processed and ground these fiber tendons into powder, people will be like eating sand when they eat it, and their throats will be flustered, so don't look at the cabbage so huge, you can only see it and can't eat it.

These plantations were made by the government/government, Huaxia was originally a big agricultural country, if the grain did not grow insects, Huaxia would not be short of food for fifty years, but unfortunately now it is necessary to study how to grow these new types of food, after all, there are too many people in Huaxia, food is extremely scarce, and it is impossible for everyone to rely on foreign animal meat to fill their stomachs.

Further ahead, the two sides of the highway are not planted with cabbage, some are planted with bamboo, some are planted with corn, some are planted with sorghum, these plants are all particularly tall without exception, and the height of some bamboos is more than 100 meters, the height of corn sorghum is almost almost, but it must be fifty or sixty meters high, but don't look at these plants growing so tall, but they are just shocking, bamboo does not grow bamboo shoots, corn does not grow cobs, sorghum does not grow sorghum, can only feast the eyes.

Many biologists have a clear analysis of this, now plants are crazy to evolve, competing for each other's living space, in order not to be extinct, so they will not consider the matter of inheritance at all, which is also the reason for the scarcity of plant fruits today, this is the instinct of all living things, in a short period of time, human beings can not change at all.

As we got closer to Rongcheng, the scarcity of plant species was planted, and in the end, only one plant was planted, and this plant was the cactus, and the country was obviously already preparing for how to survive in the desert, after all, the cactus is an iconic plant in the desert.

Seeing these cacti, Lin Xi's first feeling was terrifying, those bamboos are as high as 100 meters, even if they are particularly tall, these cacti can actually grow to about 200 meters, they are not the plants that grew slowly before, and most plants do not grow as fast as it.

There are countless huge spines on the cactus's body, these thorns are thirty or forty long, and they look very sharp and sharp, if they are pierced on a person, they are guaranteed to be able to string people together.

There are many government officials here who are studying how to use these huge cacti, such as whether they can be eaten, whether they can be juiced from them, or whether they can be used to build fortifications, which are all issues that need to be studied urgently.

"When we get to the desert, shouldn't we just eat these cacti?" Someone in the team had already reported that they understood what the cacti would be used for, and the tone of this person's voice was a little desperate.

Eating cactus and drinking the juice squeezed by cactus, this kind of life feels quite unpleasant just by thinking about it. Only when the big fish and meat are tired of eating, they will eat some vegetarian solution, except for the monks, no one wants to eat vegetarian every day, especially just a vegetarian, and this vegetarian is still a cactus that many people have not eaten.

Thinking of this situation, Lin Xi sighed and suddenly felt that the barbecue that had been eaten for a month was actually quite delicious. (To be continued.) )
