Chapter 231: When people live, there is hope

Maybe it was because he was unhappy after being scolded, even though the clouds had thinned so thin that the stars were exposed, but the rain did not stop completely until five o'clock in the morning.

The third rain of the tenth year of the natural disaster rained for seventy-three hours.

This is the longest lasting rain after the great evolution of the blue star creatures, and it is also the longest total time of red-level showers.

The humans who survived, although exhausted, were all grateful.

After cleaning up the crops and pulling out the greenhouse rainproof cloth to allow the surviving crops to breathe, Hu Zifeng's team returned to the No. 1 territory.

Xia Qing didn't even have the strength to walk home, lying on the edge of the burning pile of evolutionary water rats, wheezing and wheezing.

Why are you lying here? Because the temperature of the fire drove away the evolutionary insects and evolutionary bacteria in the weed, this place is the safest.

Bang, bang, bang......

The familiar rhythm made Xia Qing turn her head slowly, and through the mask, she saw her companion covered in mud holding two spinach plants in her mouth, walking towards her on the dirt road.

Xia Qing struggled to get up, sat down on the fire-dried grass, and took off the silver-white protective mask.

The pungent smell of burning evolution beasts came to his face, but Xia Qing really didn't have the strength to change places.

He took the spinach in the sheep boss's mouth, cleaned it with the spring water in the kettle, Xia Qing ate the leaves, and the sheep boss ate the stems and roots.

That's right, eat it raw.

Neither the mud man nor the mud sheep disliked anyone, and after resting together for a long time, Xia Qing got up, "Boss, go home first, I'll pick some food and go back to make something to eat for you." ”

Xia Qing followed the footprints of the sheep boss to the edge of the high-slope spinach terrace, and his hanging heart was finally put down. Although the thorn strips blocking the sheep at the edge of the terrace were pulled apart, the sheep boss only pulled out two spinach plants and did not move the others.

Xia Qing blocked the thorns again, and saw the sheep boss walking up the hillside with a small basket to catch insects, trampling a big grasshopper to death with one hoof, and putting it into the basket.

The fish, snakes and chickens in the house need to be fed, and the sheep boss is so capable!

Xia Qing was moved, swallowed all the preaching back into his stomach, and gave a compliment that was more turbulent than the river.

There were so many insects after the rain that a man and a sheep quickly caught a basket of worms.

On the way home, looking at the unruly farmland destroyed by the rain, Xia Qing couldn't help but feel distressed.

Only three fields suffered little loss: two high-slope spinach plants protected by Yishi were lost - the ones that were just pulled out by the sheep boss; There was no loss of high-slope sweet potato terraces and green-light rice protected by Yishi.

The rest of the losses were large, with the loss of 20 sweet potato seedlings in the low-slope sweet potato terraces; Because pumpkin has entered the late growth stage, the loss is relatively small, but it is also one-fifth, and the loss of other vegetables is between one-third and one-half.

The cotton at maturity lost 10 percent, a full 715 plants. In the second rain, cotton was still in the growth period, and only 220 plants were lost, which shows the power of this rain.

In the growing season, maize lost one-third, up to 1050 plants; The loss of yellow light mung beans in cultivated land is also one-third, 2,000 plants; The green light mung beans in the terraces fared slightly better, but also lost 560 plants.

In general, the loss of terraced fields was less than that of cultivated land, the proportion of green light plants was less than that of yellow light, and the loss of plants soaked in spring water was less than that of filtered water.

There is another item: the two catties of corn that Luo Pei gave him lost less than the two catties he bought from the safe zone.

Despite the loss of so many hard-earned crops, the good thing in the misfortune is that no one (beast) in her territory has died.

If it weren't for the mutual help between the territories in the final stage, which cleared twenty-five high-level risk evolutionary yellow tiller trees, this territory would have been covered with Class A poison gas, and all panting animals would have to shut up.

Now that the disaster is over and they are all alive, this is more important than anything else. As long as you live, it means victory, and there is hope.

After Xia Qing returned home with the sheep boss, he first took off the protective mask for the wolves, put on the pollution-free spring water, and then went into the house to wash the sheep boss, and then simply rinsed it himself and changed into clean clothes, and immediately made fine materials for the sheep boss before going to check the underground storage room.

The pantry is in good condition and the food inside is in good condition.

Thank yourself, thank yourself for the five years of sweat you shed in the construction team of the safety zone;

Thanks to the wolves, thank you to the wolves for sending Yishi;

Thanks to Zhang San, thank you to the idol for selling her the equipment and interior wall panels.

There was no fresh meat in the storeroom, so Xia Qing cooked dried meat for the sick wolf, fed the live spring fish and some insects, and then brought the chicken coop that had been in the tool room for four days to the eaves of the verandah outside the house.

The chicken pen is ruined and needs to be rebuilt, so let these guys out for some breath.

The black-feathered rooster, which had not seen the sun for four days, flapped its wings and straightened its neck, making its first chirp in its life.

"Oh, oh-"

"You kid can." Xia Qing's voice was hoarse and he sighed.

The rooster crows, and she can't hide the fact that there are chickens in her territory. Xia Qing poured some evolution worms into the trough, and without her greeting, the chickens and geese rushed over to cook.

When pouring the worm into the snake compartment, a snake jumped out of the mouth of the wooden box at a very fast speed and was slapped to the ground by Xia Qing.

Before she could continue, the wolf with a broken leg ran over and cut the snake in two with one paw.

"Broken leg, amazing, admire!" Xia Qing praised it, and the detection found that the snake had shown a red light. In the absence of protection, some of the edible snakes she raised have become inedible and have lost their minds and gone berserk.

The mad snake has no reason, does not feel pain, and will not stop until the last drop of blood is shed.

Therefore, it must be removed as soon as possible.

Xia Qing simply took the bag, tested all the snakes in the snake compartment, removed all the red lights and madness, and stuffed the rest back and continued to raise.

Because it was discovered late, there were only one-third of the edible snakes left, and there were more than twenty of them, and Xia Qing was very distressed.

It had just rained, and Zhong Tao and the others would not be able to come over in five or six days at the earliest, and the snakes they caught could only be burned or buried.

Just when Xia Qing was about to dispose of the red light snake, the wolf with a broken leg took one in his mouth and started eating.

The wolf who hasn't eaten for four days eats all kinds of meat, which saves Xia Qing's business.

After a simple breakfast, he poured a freshly squeezed special nutrient solution, Xia Qing couldn't even sleep, and began to clean up the grass in the yard.

It's not that she's diligent, it's just that this rain has been raining for too long, and the first wave of weeds has begun to tassel and seed, if the weeds are mature and fall to the ground, the density of weeds drilled out of her territory in the next rain will be terrifying to the point of madness.

Therefore, if the weeds are not removed, the farmer will not be able to rest.

After pulling out the weeds in the yard, Xia Qing drove the micro-tillage, hung up the mower and began to clean up the weeds in the territory.

Time is urgent, I can't take care of the grassroots, cut the grass first, and talk about the roots later.

The mowing blades of the micro-tiller have been improved by Xia Qing, and four mowing wheels have been added, and the mowing efficiency has been increased by three times compared to the original. Although it costs fuel, the speed of work is greatly improved.

The clatter of the micro-tiller engine and the rubbing sound of mowing grass reached the No. 2 territory, and Tang Huai, who had just fallen asleep and was woken up, collapsed, "Is this woman beaten with iron?" Don't you even need to sleep? ”
