Chapter 115 The Lighthouse of the Sea (Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation)
Taking advantage of the fact that everything is going well in Qingping County now, and Mingfeng County is in the honeymoon period, the Dragon King decided to go back to Tiejiabao and go to the beach by the way to see the salt fruit, because he heard Tie Yong say that the salt fruit tree is a bit too terrible now, and he wants to see what is terrible.
If the Dragon King wants to go back, Tie Yong, Tie Ling, and Wang Yong also want to go back, it just so happens that Zhang Xiaoyang is also tired of staying in the county, she feels that the county town is not as fun as home, so Liu Dalu said to Quan Gang and set off directly.
Halfway through, you can see that some vines have just been planted on both sides of the cement road, and the reason for planting these grapes is not only to sell, but also to look good, and when the grapes grow up, they are used for shade, after all, these grapes grow quickly, and the effect is much more obvious than planting trees.
If there is no better cash crop than glowing grapes, it is estimated that any place in Qingping County will have to plant grapes in the future and become a large grape producing county.
Back at Tiejiabao, the Dragon King went to visit Tiema, Tiema was very happy, and told him one more thing, the peach tree had been dug back, and it was about to be transported to Qingping County.
Everything was as usual in Tiejiabao, and the Dragon King didn't stay long, and rushed to the beach with his people.
Because he was going to the beach, and there were delicious coconut crabs on the beach, Wang Yong brought a lot of spices and a small barrel of freshly brewed grape vinegar...
The seaside is too far away, when passing through the Dragon King's Palace, everyone did not stay, found a wooden shed at night to rest casually, to the mountain, the Dragon King can show his skills again, this night to eat pheasant, fat and oily, after Wang Yong's careful cooking, the taste is excellent, everyone is full of praise.
Seeing that the cement on some pavements was actually peeling off, the Dragon King asked Tie Yong to remember that in the future, the people who transported the salt fruits should remember to bring some cement on them, and repair them immediately if they saw where the pavement was broken.
It took two days to finally reach the beach.
The wooden house by the sea for people to live has been built a long time ago, there are several in total, and even a few pieces of land have been reclaimed on the edge of the wooden house.
Nodding at these people, Liu Dalu saw the salt fruit tree.
From the last time he planted the salt fruit tree to the present, the total time has been almost two months, Liu Dalu remembers that when he left, the height of the salt fruit tree was about 12 meters, as for now, the height of the salt fruit tree has not grown much taller, that is, about 15 meters? However, the trunk of the tree was very thick, and according to his estimate, it would take three or four people to hug it.
And Liu Dalu finally knew why Tie Yong would say that the salt fruit tree was so terrible.
Because the roots of the salt fruit tree are too many and too dense.
In a radius of nearly 100 meters, all the roots of the salt fruit tree are thin and long, and there are long hairs on the roots, these roots are gently swaying with the sea, looking like small snakes, if there is a dense phobia or fear of snakes, it will definitely make the scalp numb.
And this is only on the surface of the sea, there are more under the water, and if you look closely, you can see that there are many bones of small fish left on these roots, and it is obvious that many small fish fell into the big net made of these roots and did not swim out, and after they died, they were eaten by other fish.
However, there were fewer roots on the side of the coast, and someone on the side told the dragon king that they had been cut off for the purpose of picking salt fruits.
So many roots are constantly sucking in seawater, and if you stand closer, you can still hear a slight popping sound from the sea, and after listening to it for a long time, you will feel panicked.
After observing for a while, Liu Dalu found that although the salt fruit tree has grown so big, and the scope of the roots has been expanded several times, the yield of the salt fruit tree has not been significantly improved.
"Didn't you notice that the reason why the yield of this salt fruit tree could not be increased was because it was restricted by the environment?"
Everyone shook their heads in confusion.
Liu Dalu didn't explain, and said directly: "We have to move the salt fruit tree into the sea again, now it is too close to the coastline." ”
Because it is so close to the coastline, the salt fruit tree can only grow on one side, and only the roots on one side can absorb seawater, and the efficiency is only half, so the yield has never been increased.
As for the roots of the salt fruit tree, it seems a little terrifying, well, Liu Dalu himself doesn't feel it, maybe this has something to do with the fact that he is a snake now, he is no longer afraid of any snake.
If he wanted to move such a huge salt fruit tree, Liu Dalu had to be the main force, let Tie Yong and the others start, cut off some of the roots, and then motioned for them to go ashore.
"The strength of the Dragon King is really getting bigger and bigger."
"yes, it's not at all comparable to the first time I met the Dragon King."
"How old was the Dragon King then? How old is it now? There is nothing to compare. ”
"It would be great if I could be like the Dragon King, I would definitely be a general or something."
"General? What general can compare to the Dragon King? ”
The Dragon King showed his divine power to the fullest, and dragged the salt fruit tree to a place almost one hundred and fifty meters away from the coastline, this coastline is relatively gentle, and when he arrived here, the depth was only about twenty meters.
Throw the salt fruit tree down, and then put it in the right position, and the salt fruit tree of the Dragon Dynasty is five hairs and grow savagely.
The effect of the five savage growth was really terrifying, and under the super effect of the divine magic, the salt fruit regrew its roots and plunged into the bottom of the sea, and the treetops also emerged from the sea.
At this moment, the root tendrils of the salt fruit tree have expanded to almost two hundred meters, and the number of roots is likely to exceed 10,000, especially like a group of snakes dancing wildly.
The two salt fruits grew from between the branches at the same time, and slowly grew in front of Liu Dalu's eyes, doubling the efficiency.
Liu Dalu swam back, everyone looked at him, Wang Yong asked stupidly: "Dragon King, now that the salt fruit tree is so far away, how will you pick salt fruits in the future?" ”
"Build a wooden boardwalk, don't worry about being damaged by water bubbles, the sea is full of salt, and the planks are soaked in salt, which will become salted wood, which is quite durable."
"Uh, okay."
Standing on the coast, looking from a distance, the treetops of the salt fruit trees looked like a lighthouse, and Liu Dalu suddenly had an idea.
If there are enough salt fruit trees, and they are connected by pontoon bridges to the north, and if the salt fruit trees can be larger, and even wooden houses can be built on the salt fruit trees, then with these salt fruit trees, will they not be able to control the nearby sea?
"Well, by the way, it seems that the roots of the salt fruit tree are quite strong, and these roots grow quickly, so that these roots that grow on the surface of the sea are connected to each other, and they can be used as a road, and there is no need to build a pontoon bridge."
"If this can be done, it will definitely have a great effect on promoting the development of the sea, so why not exchange it for another seed to try? Look at what kind of chemical reaction two salt fruit trees will have? Even if their roots don't automatically hook up, they can be tied together. ”
