He could feel the intricate and unusually developed root system under the sandy soil, which was solidified and solidified like a huge water storage network.

In desert vegetation, the root system is always larger than the part that exposes the crust.

Because of the drought, they all have strong hydrotaxis, resulting in a well-developed root system.

They seem to be anxious and looking forward to rain from heaven.

When it was time for Zhao Chuanxin to water the stinky liquid every day, this thirst reached its peak.

It's like domestic animals, they are domesticated.

On a sand date, Zhao Chuanxin felt a stronger life attribute.

He opened his eyes, and it was a black-tailed ground jay hiding in the bushes.

This is the power that the heart of the Holy Spirit brings to him.

He said "Huh", he didn't expect that where the bird doesn't, there will finally be a bird to.

He walked towards the raven.

In the past, the ravens would have been frightened and fled.

But at this time, when Zhao Chuanxin was close to a meter away, the ground crow just looked up curiously, but did not rush to fly away.

Zhao Chuanxin leaned over and touched its head, but it didn't run.

Zhao Chuanxin got up and sighed: "Hey, eating game in the future is too easy and not challenging." ”

As he was figuring out, he saw three thin figures in the distance.

At this time, the temperature can reach above zero at night, and it can reach more than 20 degrees in the desert during the day, but these three thin bodies are still tightly wrapped in iron-beaten jackets that can stand up on the ground.

Their little faces are dirty, and when they look at people, their heads are lowered and their eyes are raised, which is a look that is both self-defense and seeing strangers clearly.

The first child was the shortest and had some buckteeth.

Zhao Chuanxin pinched his waist with both hands, watched the three children frighten the black-tailed ground crow to the sheepfold, and asked, "What are the three of you doing?" ”

The little bucktooth friend looked left and right, as if no one could speak for him, so he had to muster up his courage: "We have to pick up dung." ”

Zhao Chuanxin looked at where they came from and said in surprise: "Who told you that there is dung here?" ”

If no one says it, and I don't believe that Zhao Chuanxin was killed, the three children can find here.

"On the post road, someone told us."

"Men and women?"

"Man."

Since it wasn't a good thing that Gulzar did, Zhao Chuanxin was suspicious, wasn't he being targeted by bandits?

But he also pointed to the sheepfold: "There is a yak and two horses there, don't provoke them, just go and pick them up." ”

Three children, carrying a basket with foam on their backs, walked towards the sheepfold without saying a word.

Zhao Chuanxin and Guo Vulwa, squinting at the three children picking up dung.

Guo Vulwa shook her head: "The shopkeeper doesn't look like a bandit's eyeliner." ”

"It doesn't matter, we don't refuse those who fly from the sky."

"Shopkeeper, Miss Gulzar hasn't been here for a while."

"Oh, that's right, she doesn't pay for food anyway." Zhao Chuanxin looked at the surrounding vegetation: "The top priority is how to get some needle grass, moss, rye and other pastures back." It's nerve-wracking......"

Guo Vulwa looked at the surrounding grass and shade, and the temperature in the sky was a few degrees lower than elsewhere, where was there still a desert.

He scratched his head: his heart said that he still wanted to plant grass?

And the bucktooth child whispered to his companions: "They say that we are for bandits, don't they avoid us?" ”

"Shh......h We just came to pick up the dung, and we didn't do anything bad. ”

"Listen, the man is mad and wants weeds. I think they have two thatched huts, so let's exchange the grass for some fertilizer with him. ”

Cow dung is best for burning fire, because there is a lot of fiber and it is flammable.

Horse manure is poor, too fine and not easy to burn.

Generally, the fire is burned with cow dung, and then the horse dung is thrown inside.

Human manure is brought back to increase fertility in the field.

The land in the northwest is barren and crops are generally not growing well.

"You go ahead and say it."

"There you go."

"Go."

In the end, it was the bucktooth child, who ran to Zhao Chuanxin, raised his head and discussed: "Can we exchange grass for the dung in your thatched house?" ”

Zhao Chuanxin was stunned: "Okay, it's all blown by the wind, pick it up." By the way, I'm going to bring roots of grass, rye, you know? Do you know the grass that cattle and sheep eat? ”

"Yes." Bucktooth nodded.

When their baskets were full, the bucktooth child was bent over, but he gritted his teeth and held on, and found Zhao Chuanxin again: "Shopkeeper, can we still come in a few days?" There is still manure that has not been picked up. ”

Zhao Chuanxin and Guo Vulwa looked at each other.

Come on, Guo Vulwa has less work.

Originally, he was going to dig out the thatched house.

Zhao Chuanxin bared his teeth: "Yes, bring the grass in exchange, remember to bring the roots." By the way, I have three candy balls here, wrap them in oiled paper for you, and go back one for each person. ”

Bucktooth took the oiled paper, opened it immediately, stuffed a piece in his mouth, and gave it to his friends.

Zhao Chuanxin looked at their hands stained with cow dung and dregs, and stopped talking, but finally held back and didn't say anything.

"Shopkeeper, can we change the sugar?"

Zhao Chuanxin thought for a while: "You have to exchange seeds for sugar, and you want any seeds." ”

The three children nodded busily and headed south with the basket on their backs.

Nikola Tesla got out of the lab, and it was time for him to walk on foot again.

Nikola Tesla took a deep breath of the grassy air: "Zhao, the best thing you did was to fill this place with green. ”

"No, the best thing I've done is that I'll be able to clean up the mountain of dung heaps very quickly."

There's no husk here, and no creatures to help decompose......

The cow dung can fertilize the land, but with the old god night pot, there is no need for other fertilizer.

Zhao Chuanxin remembered the black-tailed ground crow, so he went to a sandy place surrounded by plants near the bushes and built a small rocky lake.

Of course, the lake is very reluctant, and it is only the size of a small pool, and it is only one meter deep.

Zhao Chuanxin emptied the secret realm and filled it with water.

It looks like a small lake in the desert.

Guo Vulwa had to remind: "Shopkeeper, the water level of our well has dropped a lot, and the water pump can't be pumped." ”

The pump was built by Zhao Chuanxin and Nikola Tesla.

Zhao Chuanxin was a tool man, and Nikola Tesla was the conductor.

The pipes and sealing chambers are made of fused silica glass, with only a small amount of rubber as the sealing ring.

Zhao Chuanxin waved his hand: "It's okay, wait and recover." ”

Farming is addictive.

For example, expand the area of greenery.

Today, expand one meter of sand fixation and windproof, and tomorrow the center of the sky will be able to sweep a few grains of sand in front of the flying door.

Now, every morning, Guo Vulwa only needs to deal with things perfunctorily.

But the more this is the case, the more Zhao Chuanxin can't wait to let the sky fly around spotless.

When the seeds were all used up, he would go to the cuttings and water the stinking liquid every afternoon when he was walking in Nikola Tesla.

By the next day, the cuttings are guaranteed to survive.

In addition, in the middle part of the green space that Zhao Chuanxin extends to the south, he will build a rock road.

As long as the vegetation is windproof and sand-fixing, the rocky road will lead to wherever it is not buried by sand.

Now it's tens of meters away.

Today's cuttings task was completed, Zhao Chuanxin straightened his back, looked at the black-tailed ground crow drinking water by the "artificial lake" he had just built, and he said in his heart: It should be made more.

But he couldn't continue pumping well water, in case the well was drained, Zhao Chuanxin would have no place to cry.

Zhao Chuanxin's heart moved, and a bold idea came up.

There are many springs in the Badain Jaran Desert, and there are many desert lakes on the Alxa side.

Later scientists believed that there should be a large water network under the desert, and the source of the water network may be the Qilian Mountains, 500 kilometers to the southwest.

He looked at the center of the sky, which had long been surrounded by greenery, and was not afraid of wind and sand.

So the next morning, Zhao Chuanxin found an open space, gathered sand into a tower, and surrounded a rock tube two meters above the ground.

He went all the way down, hollowing out the inside.

Half of the sand is used to construct a thick rock wall, and less than half of the sand is used to create a spiral staircase, all the way down.

When digging to two meters, the dry sand turns into wet sand.

After digging five meters, a layer of rock was exposed underneath.

Zhao Chuanxin was shocked, he knew for the first time that the sand in the desert might only be a few meters deep.

Luckily, it's rock, not dirt.

The rocks were wet, and Zhao Chuanxin was surprised and delighted when he saw it.

He began to reverse the operation of the tower into sand, and the sand continued to solidify into a cylindrical inner wall, and the rest was collected into the secret realm.

After digging down another meter and a half, the rocks were empty, and there was a gurgling sound of running water below.

He actually dug a waterway.

The direction in which the water flows is northeast.

Zhao Chuanxin built the ladder, walked down, stretched out his hand and fished a handful, and looked at the horse lantern and the skylight, the water was very clear, and it was cool and cold.

He took a shallow sip, which was very clear and salt-free......
