Chapter 88, the happiness and strength of chickens, ducks and geese
Originally, Jia Kedao and the two brought from Laojunguan seven chickens, ducks and geese were seven, four, and two respectively, all of which were strong soil species purchased from Jiashan Village to prevent these chickens, ducks and geese from dying in an unfamiliar environment.
But Otis's report made Jacodao realize that he seemed to underestimate the viability of these chickens, ducks and geese.
Despite the fact that they have been domesticated by humans for tens of thousands of years, they are quite different from their own wild species, but their ability to adapt to the environment is surprisingly strong.
In particular, there are only seven chickens, and in more than three months, more than 180 eggs have been harvested, which is a bit low compared to the output of Jiashan Village.
On Earth, hens lay an egg every twenty-six hours, and here it takes about two days to lay an egg.
A month ago, Jia Kedao instructed the old farmer to put the harvested eggs into the chicken coop and let the hens hold the nest to hatch the eggs.
But after this incident, Jia Kedao was forgotten, and now he remembers it.
With more than 180 eggs and about 30 chicks, one in six is low enough to bankrupt most hatcheries relative to the planet.
After hearing this number, Jia Kedao didn't care, he raised chickens just to provide meat and eggs, not to raise chickens to make money, not to mention that these creatures are alien species to the other world, and they have not yet fully adapted to the newcomers, and they are still in the adjustment period.
After thinking about it, Jia Kedao simply went to the pond.
The population of chickens, ducks and geese enclosed by the pond has grown considerably compared to when they first arrived.
A flock of newly plumpping chicks are excitedly following the six hens and tossing back and forth on the muddy floor next to the pond, occasionally pecking fat insects into their mouths and devouring them.
On the surface of the pond, four ducks and two geese are playing in the water with strings of ducklings and geese.
It's been more than three months, and the pond is no longer clear.
Every time Terrance took someone out to harvest wheat, he would send someone to the creek and other places to catch fish fry, scavenge for aquatic weeds, and so on, and come back to fill the pond.
As a result, the pond water now appears a little yellow-green, and there are some strange duckweed floating on it, but it is definitely not the duckweed of the earth.
The fish that began to breed in the pond and the insects caught by the old farmers provided the ducks and geese with abundant food, so that they also laid a lot of eggs in the past three months.
Of course, compared to chickens, ducks and geese have fewer ducks and geese, and thus fewer eggs are laid.
Ducks can lay about 22 to 30 eggs a month, geese about 10 a month, and here, two pairs of ducks do not have to hatch eggs, and produce more than 120 eggs, and the pair of geese is even less, only sixteen.
The task of hatching duck eggs was given to the hens to hatch together, and more than 90 duck eggs hatched 14 ducklings, and the emergence rate was even more dismal than that of chickens.
And the geese don't need to be mentioned, just look at the pair of goose butts followed by the two shimmering goslings, the emergence rate of one-eighth of them.
Jia Kedao then inspected all the chickens, ducks and geese.
Sure enough, as I guessed, all of these chickens, ducks and geese showed some symptoms of demonization, and the only difference was how much.
Most chickens, ducks and geese may never reach the level of the big rooster in their lifetime, but it should be noted that those seedlings hatched in the other world have a stronger demonic aura than their parents.
This otherworldly environment is like a powerful catalyst for mutation, turning these poultry that used to stay in the farmer's house to lay eggs and provide meat gradually become hideous.
But then again, Jia Kedao also understands.
A place with abundant spiritual energy like the Otherworldly Valley, even if it is placed in ancient China, is a rare spiritual land.
In ancient China, such a spiritual land has been a place of evil since ancient times.
People can start to become inhuman when they cultivate in an environment with abundant spiritual energy, can't these chickens, ducks and geese become monsters?
"Where is the land?"
Jia Kedao thought for a moment, and then shouted.
It didn't take long for a figure emitting white light to appear in front of Jia Kedao after a puff of white smoke, and he bent down and saluted: "The land of Aoki Valley has seen a real person in Mingyang. ”
Well, I haven't seen him in the past few days, and the land lord has learned to wear a high hat for people without a teacher, Jia Kedao doesn't know when he will be able to become a real person, and this land prince will be a real person.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, no need to be polite, the land of Aoki Valley, the poor road will hand over this chicken demon to you for discipline, don't let it hurt people again. ”
Jia Kedao handed over the big rooster to the land lord, anyway, the land already has a squirrel demon as his subordinate, and he doesn't care about such a chicken demon.
The land was just to leave, Jia Kedao remembered something again, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "Remember, every once in a while, let this chicken demon return to the chicken flock to relax." ”
The land lord was a little stunned, he didn't quite understand what Jia Kedao meant, looked at Jia Kedao, and wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask.
Jia Kedao was also stunned, he never thought that the land lord didn't understand what he meant, did he have to say clearly that let this rooster come back every once in a while to breed the chickens?
Fortunately, the land lord is also responsible for the growth of creatures in this valley anyway, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't understand it at first, he understands it after a lot of brains.
Besides, it doesn't matter if you don't understand, just do what Jia Kedao tells you to do.
Whether it is to wind this rooster or breed, as long as the rooster is put back in the flock, it will never forget what to do.
It's just a chicken demon, and it hasn't reached the point of becoming an immortal or a Buddha.
After solving the matter of the chicken demon, Jia Kedao began to clean up the aftermath, and asked Otis to recruit those Dao soldier seeds and Dao Tong, ready to let them apply what they have learned.
Since there is a chicken demon, it means that this thing is inevitable.
Therefore, strengthening the farm, preventing these chickens, ducks and geese from escaping has become the main purpose, Jia Kedao does not want these chickens, ducks and geese to escape and turn into monsters, and it didn't take long to form a monster population, and finally attract some unnecessary attention to the trouble.
Even if the ten Jia Ke Dao were combined, it would be impossible to fight against some of the beings in this other world now.
In this way, those Dao boys and Dao soldier seeds recruited by Jia Kedao began to work.
The quarries presided over by those stonemasons have been much smaller than when they overhauled the houses, but they are still operating, after all, there are a lot of stones needed inside and outside the valley, and the continuous mining of the mountain walls can also expand the area of the valley.
These Taoist children and Taoist soldiers need to transport the stones from the quarry to the farm, and build a stone wall around the farm to prevent the chickens, ducks and geese from escaping.
