Chapter 701: The Old Man's Ranch
The next day, Lin Chou came down from the tree early and counted the number of people for breakfast.
β12345...β
Nodding with satisfaction,
"Okay, breakfast is canceled today, I have something to go out!"
Wu Ke complained bitterly.
The mountain master even grabbed Lin Chou, "What are you going to do, you can't stop and stop, how many days will you go this time??" β
Lin Chou rolled his eyes,
"I just went to the old man in the south to have a look, and wondered, why does he have so many good things!"
"Just... Only this? β
"That's right."
The mountain master waved his hand,
"Lao Tzu will drive you!"
β...β
The old man said that he lived in saline-alkali land hundreds of kilometers south of the base city, and he was engaged in breeding there - so it was very easy to find.
Hundreds of kilometers away, you can see the endless wilderness suddenly appear white faults, as if under some kind of curse, the plants suddenly disappear here, leaving only dry dirt, and as the pangolin speeds past, a long dragon of gray soil is pulled out of the distance of several kilometers, and it has not dissipated for a long time.
Without a trace of wind, the air is distorted by heat, and even the skin can feel the alkaline components in the air, which is extremely dry and unbearable.
Occasionally, you can see a few living corpses and the bones of strange beasts, gray and gloomy as if they have been devastated by dozens or hundreds of years, except for the occasional flying in the sky a few alienated vultures and old eagles whose hair is about to fall off, it is desolate.
"Fog grass!"
The mountain lord scolded,
"Why is the painting style in this place so strange, Lao Tzu has never been in before - I heard that the geomagnetic disorder in this place is so bad that I can't even use a needle."
Lin Chou said,
"That's not right, Bao Er, an ordinary person, came and went, and I didn't see him get lost."
The mountain master is also confused,
"Don't say it, maybe this kid is full of life skills, and Lao Tzu is a little confused about the direction now."
Lin Chou was shocked,
"Damn, don't scare me, I've never figured out the direction... You're not going to leave us both in this saline land, are you? β
The eyes of the mountain master are like looking at a fool,
"Fart, at least we can run back along the rut prints."
Lin Chou was immediately relieved,
"The old man seems to have said that when you enter the saline-alkali land, you just go to a high place, and the place where he lives is the commanding height."
In a joke, the Pangolin came to the heart of the saline-alkali land, however, it was not a "mountain" as the old man said, it was just a small hill that was slapped flat on the ground like a cornmeal flatbread - according to the cup, it should belong to the "A-" category.
A giant pillar cactus at least 20 meters tall and as thick as 10 people hugging each other stands at the highest point of "A-", next to a very simple thatched hut, about the size of a toilet.
"It's... Is it the old man's farm..."
The mountain master stabbed Lin Chou with his arm,
"I mean, this old man can't be a liar, right?"
A huge trumpet suddenly rose above the thatched house,
"The little rabbit cub of your second uncle, standing at the door of someone else's house and scolding others, which bastard taught you? Don't roll in yet! β
The mountain lord shrugged,
"This old man has a big temper, and he is really energetic when he is old."
"You don't have to say a word."
Pushing open the babbling wooden door, the two of them plunged headlong into itβyes, you read that right, the headfirst kind.
"Bang."
"Bang."
"Ouch, you kid should eat more, this bone is panicking."
"Get out!"
The old man stood in front of the two with a smile,
"Welcome to my ranch... Ahem, my territory. β
This is an indescribable place, similar to the interdimensional space that Lin Chou drilled into on the island last time, with clear boundaries.
The first thing that catches your eye is a rainbow that passes through the sky, stretching the entire green mountains and green waters.
"I... Go..."
The old man laughed,
"How about it, it's not worse than your kid's Yanhui Mountain, right?"
"We're obviously in the house, this..."
The old man said,
"Nothing unusual, there are thousands of awakened people in the world, and it's nothing new for me to bring my own farm, old man, come, let me introduce it to you - the size of the entire farm space is almost thirty-six square kilometers, of which two-thirds are pasture areas, and one-third are planting areas, of course, planting has always been my weakness, and I can also grow some grasses and herbs with strong vitality."
"The pasture area is roughly divided into twelve sectors, separated by a fence in the middle, and now the main breeding beasts are bulls, rock sheep, yellow sheep, bamboo rats, hazel chickens, etc., all of which are herbivorous livestock, and the geological structure of each sector is different, like the things I provide to you, they are all grown up in the most suitable environment for their lives, of course, I will also raise some more strange things, the animal species in the entire pastoral area are one hundred and twenty-three so far, in order to ensure quality, I strictly control the number of these livestock ... And then... And then..."
A fifth-order alpaca rushed by with a beautiful drifting tail in front of the mountain master, and sprayed his saliva all over his face by the way,
"It's the first time I've heard of these things... Alien Beasts... called livestock. β
The old man stopped talking,
"This grass tower horse is just an example, this is my mount, and it is also the only fifth-order beast in the pastoral area, usually herding a sheep or something for me, and it can also take care of the house, it runs very fast, do you want to go up and take a ride on the hill?" Tata has a very gentle personality! β
Hill??
The mountain master wiped the saliva on his face and retreated again and again,
"No, no, no..."
"Oh, you're welcome, you have to treat your guests like spring-you know, you know, every year, there are a lot of restaurants and restaurants that come to me to do shopping, and their people love Tata."
Lin Chou said,
"How I hadn't heard of it before... Is there such a place? β
The old man smiled,
"What's so strange about that, the wine is not afraid of the fragrance of the alley, the old man, I don't like to engage in some weird propaganda or something, everything is fate!"
And he said,
"Xiaolinzi, you are also my old customer, I have to say you, others are always eager to get the cheapest goods at the lowest price, you are good, never engage in bulk purchases, specifically ask for those strange things, every time I hurt the old man I am in a hurry - just take those two Rambo Hennies as an example, you know how hard I worked old man..."
For the first time, Shan Ye felt that he couldn't interject at all when others spoke, and this feeling was very frustrating and uncomfortable.
Next, the old man took the two of them to visit the ranch roughly, blue sky and white clouds, mountains, rivers, forests, lakes, which are completely different from the outside, and there are similarities - there is no sun.
All kinds of creatures live here, including Rambo henny, stone frogs, multicolored hazel pheasants that Lin Chou has seen before, and even a giant salamander lying lazily in the stream and a caracal with no variegated body.
The old man emphatically tips,
"This cat is not for sale, let me tell you, this is my old buddy, who has been with me for hundreds ... For decades, neither can Tata. β
"I'm old, I don't know when I'm going to see my wife, when the time comes, I have to ask you to take care of Tata for me - Tata, come and recognize your relatives first!"
The mountain master suddenly jumped back,
"Damn, don't come here, don't let it come... I get goosebumps when I see it... Nima, is this the legendary natural enemy? Lao Tzu's food chain level is not yet this grass mud... Grass Tama High?? β
