The 459th snatch is cold
"Husband, it doesn't seem like there are potatoes in this place. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Yang Yan and Ahri came to a dark green planet in an instant. The planet is a bit eerie, with green meadows all over the hills, but not a single flower. There is not a single tree either.
Yes, just endless wilderness and green meadows.
Even the meadow has only one kind of grass.
An inconspicuous grass with flattened leaves.
Yang Yan looked around, laughed, and said, "If not, let's change the planet." Besides, don't you have anything like a potato?"
Ahri rolled her eyes and complained, "You're not afraid of poisoning me?"
Yang Yan also rolled his eyes, and said helplessly: "How can there be anything in this world that can poison you?
Ahri: "...... Okay! You dead Yang Yan! You actually poisoned me?!"
Ahri opened his teeth and claws, like an eight-legged spider. The nine tails on the back all danced, and it looked like he was sick.
Yang Yan was also aggrieved, thinking what is this called!
Aren't you curious about what they taste like and have to taste them?
Ahri doesn't care about this, it's your fault anyway!
"Look! What's up ahead!"
Seeing that Ahri began to be quite unreasonable, Yang Yan wittily began to change the topic.
Sure enough, Ahri was instantly attracted to attention. She turned her head away, looked around excitedly, and shouted, "Where, what?
In the direction Yang Yan pointed, a flying dragon flapped its wings and flew across the sky.
Ahri was disappointed.
"Ahh The dragons of the East China Sea are delicious, and the eggs are also delicious. ”
Yang Yan wiped the sweat on his head, and thought to himself, there are only a few dragons in the East China Sea, who are you chopping up?
If you don't have to eat, you have to eat.
So Yang Yan and Ahri quietly followed behind the flying lizard, wondering if they could find something to eat.
The temperature on this planet is a bit low, about 18 degrees. But there was a big sun hanging in the sky, very big, as if hanging overhead.
Yang Yan knew what was going on.
He had observed it when he came down to this planet. The sun is indeed very big. But the distance to this planet is very far, and the temperature is very low. The light shines through, it's bright, but the temperature isn't that high.
According to Yang Yan's calculations, this sun is estimated to burn for about 100 million years.
When the time comes, the planet will be even colder. Completely transformed into a hockey puck.
After following the big lizard for a long time, Yang Yan was surprised to find that there was a castle at the end of his vision.
"Does the dragon live in a castle or a cave?" Ahri asked, turning his head to Yang Yan.
"The dragon lives in a cave, right?" Yang Yan was also a little unsure.
The castle was small, small enough for the size of a dragon to be a kennel.
The big lizard just got in, and then it fell silent.
"There should be food in the dragon's castle, right? Wouldn't you starve to death?" Ahri muttered quietly, afraid that the loud noise would scare the big lizard away.
Yang Yan shrugged his shoulders, glanced at Ahri helplessly, and said, "It shouldn't be you who should worry about whether he has food or not, it should be it! If there is no food, you will bake it 100%!"
Ahri hammered Yang Yan's shoulder, and said coquettishly: "People are hungry!"
Swaggered into the castle, completely ignoring the opinion of the owner of the castle.
After entering, he found that the castle was not as Yang Yan imagined, and treasures were piled up aside. There is only one hole in the ground.
It's a big hole.
"The lizard went underground. Ahri tugged on Yang Yan's sleeve and guessed the answer in an instant, and the expression on his face was full of praise for me.
"I know ......"
The two men jumped into the hole.
"It's so dark!"
"It's okay, I'll carry you on my back, come, come up. ”
"Good!"
......
It's a very cold planet, sparsely populated here, and food is scarce here. Temperatures in the midteens during the day can turn into minus 10 degrees Celsius at night, and most crops cannot grow at such temperatures. There are only a few species, and they have tenaciously evolved the strength to resist the cold.
Reduce your own breathing at night and increase photosynthesis during the day.
In this way, a large amount of energy can be accumulated, and all the energy can be transferred to the roots before winter comes, so as to survive the long winter.
Human beings are tenacious beings, and they try to survive.
The bitter grass that spreads all over the mountains is a very difficult grass to eat. The roots of bitter grass have a large amount of starch precipitated, and although it is very toxic on it, it is the most readily available food.
In that long and cold winter, countless people survived on bitter grass.
Despite the long-term use of bitter herbs, people's lives have stopped at the age of fifty. But it's better than starving.
To withstand the cold, people live deep underground.
Twenty meters away.
The thick layer of soil insulates people from the cold. The ground is also close to the water source.
Groundwater is the main drinking water for people.
Above-ground water is so scarce that it is used to irrigate farmland.
"Your Majesty, this year's harvest of farmland is too small. If this goes on like this, we will have to live on the roots of the bitter grass this winter, and in that case many of the people will die!" said the minister, dressed in simple clothes, to the king, who was sitting on the big rock, worriedly.
The king's face was a little sad, and a sorrow that could not be concealed lingered on his face.
"The temperature of the sun is too low. We need a more intense light source. ”
"Your Majesty, there's nothing we can do. He sighed weakly.
"We need to have more than double the land before winter comes, so that no one dies. The king stood, his shining golden armor striking out in the dim darkness of the earth.
The campfire was slowly burning, crackling in the quiet underground.
People are having their first meal of the day.
Breakfast is more important than dinner, because they are about to start the day, and if they don't have enough food, they won't have the energy.
And for dinner, despite the hunger in their stomachs after a long day's work, reason told them not to eat too much.
After dinner, it's time to go to bed, so there's no need to eat too much.
In the face of the threat of death, any enjoyment becomes so humble.
"The King's order is to increase the amount of land to be cultivated tomorrow, and we must cultivate more land before winter comes, otherwise we will not survive this winter. A voice sounded not far away, and then spread out in different directions.
The dim light of the fire seemed even more dim.
The quiet underground world is also quieter.
"Well, Your Majesty must have gone to a new place to investigate. Without new food supplements, we will have to ramp up our workload before winter comes. ”
After a long time, an old man sighed.
"However, everyone's body can no longer bear the intensity of such work. Someone sighed.
The old people laughed.
"Don't worry, there is no threshold in the world that cannot be passed. It's finally time for us old fellows to work hard. The old man laughed heartily.
The crowd was silent.
"Let's go, while it's still early, go dig up some of the roots of the bitter grass, we need to eat a little more today. The old man put down the half-roasted rhizome of a plant in his hand, which he didn't know what it was. Placed it cherished in the hands of a child, then smiled and stood up.
"Keep eating, and when you're done eating, go to work, and be bitter, a few of us old fellows will be enough. ”
Several old people made the same movements, carefully put the food in their hands in the hands of the children, and then got up with a smile.
The planet has existed for more than three billion years.
Humans have existed here for more than 800,000 years.
This has happened many times, but it has never been extinct.
Because, every time at this time, there are old people who eat the rhizomes of bitter grass and work hard. From childhood to adulthood, bitter grass has always been crushed and put in food. This saves a lot of food and excretes trace amounts of toxins.
But if a single large amount of bitter grass is eaten, the human body will soon collapse.
These old men had a light on their faces, and they were a little happy.
They will not be a burden to their people, nor will they waste food when they grow old. They will give their last bit to their people, and they will be happy.
Looking at those growing children, these old people know that everything they do is worth it.
"Where is Grandpa?"
The child held the still hot food in a daze and watched the old people go away. His breathing was a little rapid, as if he was about to suffocate.
The father caressed the child's head lovingly and said, "Your grandfather is a hero. He's gone to save the world. ”
As he spoke, the father put the food in his hand in the child's hand and smiled.
"My father was also a hero, and now I'm going to save the world with my grandfather. Xiaoman, don't cry, don't make trouble, live well, and save the world in the future!"
The little boy clenched his fists firmly.
"I will!"
How can those old people alone open up enough land for hundreds of thousands of people to eat without tools? They need more people!
My father stood up, patted his buttocks, picked up the stone manuscript beside him, and left.
As I walked through the dark tunnel, the number of people around me slowly increased.
Gradually, they formed a team.
At this moment, a total of five thousand one hundred and twenty-three old men stood up, and a total of twelve thousand and eighty-six men stood up.
The queen stood beside the king, did not speak, and looked at the king in a gentle and quiet manner.
The king looked at the departing crowd in the passage and whispered to himself.
"What are we going to do......"
The queen leaned gently on the king's shoulder, and a touch of tenderness flashed in her eyes.
"Your Majesty, if it is unavoidable, you can leave. You don't belong to us in the first place......"
"No, since I married you, I've belonged here. I will not abandon my people. The king turned and embraced the queen with a determined expression.
"I will live and die with my people. ”
With that, the king let go of the queen and strode into the dark passage.
