Everyone Survives In The Fog

After that, it’s all about worrying about their food.

Qi Yuan knew that there was a high probability of bamboo rat food nearby.

So he sent a large number of tree bee swarms to look for bamboo forests or other plants suitable for bamboo rats to eat around the shelter.

But soon, Qi Yuan began to consider safety issues.

A large number of hornets are rampaging in the forest, which will inevitably arouse the dissatisfaction of other powerful beasts.

More importantly, it is easy to expose the location of the shelter and attract the prying eyes of powerful beasts.

Therefore, for the sake of safety, Qi Yuan changed another method.

Let the guardian thorns pass through the underground passage to lock the bamboo rats' activity range, and then find out which direction they came from.

After a careful search by Guardian Thorn, several passages leading directly to the outside of the foggy area were discovered underground.

"This is... the north side of the shelter?!"

Qi Yuan murmured to himself.

The passage for bamboo rats to enter the foggy area comes from the north, that is, on the opposite side of the creek.

Qi Yuan has never explored that direction personally, so it’s not that he doesn’t understand it.

However, after using the mist beads, the scope of the shelter expanded a lot, forming a small half circle on the opposite side of the river.

After finding the direction, Qi Yuan did not hesitate and directly arranged for the Horntail to search at a fixed location.

In this way, the efficiency immediately becomes much higher.

Just ten minutes later, the queen bee ran back and said that she had discovered the bamboo forest.

Qi Yuan's eyes lit up, he called the black tiger bees to protect him, and then went to the north of the shelter to check.

Under the leadership of the Tree Bee Queen, Qi Yuan found a bamboo forest 3 kilometers north of the creek.

The bamboo forest covers a large area, is lush and lush, and does not appear to be affected by the cold wave at all.

The types of bamboo are different. No matter the height, they are slightly smaller than Yunxi bamboo. The color is yellowish green and the texture is extremely hard. The quality is even worse.

In this bamboo forest, there are generally ordinary-grade bamboos, but there are still a few good-grade bamboos, but the proportion is very small, and the overall quality is not high.

And Qi Yuan discovered that for some reason, the bamboo shoots here were of extremely poor quality!

Qi Yuan dug out a bamboo shoot and found that even the new shoots that had just sprouted had very old fibers, comparable to those of adult bamboo.

Can't eat it at all!

Moreover, the geology here is dry and hard, so it should be alkaline land.

But under normal circumstances, bamboo forests prefer acidic and neutral land. Alkaline land will greatly weaken the life cycle of bamboo.

This is a bamboo forest that does not conform to common sense.

"No wonder bamboo rats don't want to stay here. The bamboo shoots are so hard and the soil is not suitable for survival."

Qi Yuan looked at his surroundings and finally understood why the bamboo rats had all moved.

The rare Yunxi Bamboo Forest and the rare soil are a paradise for them!

But it's a pity that even if they live next to the Yunxi Bamboo Forest in the future, they can only eat this hard yellow bamboo every day.

It would be nice to have some to eat, but can you let them choose?

However, this place is three kilometers away from the shelter. How to transport these bamboos back?

Is it possible to just let the guardian thorns spread over and occupy them all?

Although this method is possible, Qi Yuan does not intend to expand the scope of the shelter to be too large.

Today's foggy area is already large enough for Qi Yuan to survive daily. The next thing to do is to make full use of the land in the foggy area as much as possible instead of continuing to expand.

Of course, if this was an excellent or even rare bamboo forest, Qi Yuan would definitely not give up.

Unfortunately, this is only a good-grade bamboo forest, and most of it is still ordinary grade.

This kind of bamboo has low real value and relatively little plant energy.

No matter it is Qi Yuan, Guardian Thorn, or Bamboo Rat, they all dislike it.

After some ideological struggle, Qi Yuan decided to move some of the guardian thorn vines here and take charge of survival in this bamboo forest.

On the one hand, it can help cut the bamboo to facilitate later transportation.

On the other hand, although this bamboo forest is ineffective against the guardian thorn mother vine, it is still a rare source of plant energy for ordinary-level guardian thorns.

Maybe, this bamboo forest can cultivate a few more good-level guardian thorns.

Therefore, Qi Yuan selected two good-level protective thorns and more than a hundred ordinary-level protective thorns from the shelter and moved them to the bamboo forest.

Because they are too far away from the guardian thorn mother vine, they have no backup energy support and can only stand on their own.

There are two good-level guardian thorns in the earthquake field, and some common problems can also be solved.

After putting down the guardian thorns, Qi Yuan's first order was to let them collect a batch of high-grade bamboo and bamboo shoots.

As long as you come here occasionally to collect a batch, it will be enough for the bamboo rats to eat for a long time.

Soon, the guardian thorn began to be busy.

A few hours later, there were more than 30 bamboo trees more than ten meters high and more than 50 small bamboo shoots piled in front of Qi Yuan.

Because the bamboo was too long to fit in the dimensional backpack, the guardian thorns were cut into smaller pieces.

Even so, this batch of bamboos had to be transported many times by Qi Yuan before they were all returned to the shelter and piled in the bamboo rat breeding area.

food! place! After everything was prepared, the bamboo rat breeding plan was finally on track.

At first, these bamboo rats were shivering, hiding in a circle surrounded by guarding thorns and shivering.

But it wasn’t long before he started exploring around and digging holes in the ground.

However, there is not much space left for them under the ground, just enough for them to barely live.

There are 32 bamboo rats, a breeding area of ​​30 square meters, and the average land per person is about 1 square meter, which is not too crowded.

When the number of bamboo rats expands in the future, the breeding area will also expand accordingly.

Anyway, the fence is made of guardian thorns and is easy to adjust.

Qi Yuan observed silently and found that they could not break through the siege of the guardian thorns, whether on the ground or underground, and then left with peace of mind.

After most of the day's work, it was already late at night.

But in the foggy area, there is no difference between day and night.

After all, the entire foggy area is Qi Yuan's territory.

Walking back to the shelter, I kicked the guarding thorn mother vine standing beside me.

The Guardian Thorn shook its torso reluctantly, and then slowly emitted a faint green light.

The green light is just right. It can illuminate the shelter yard without attracting the attention of other creatures through the fog.

When Qi Yuan returned to the shelter, dinner had been ready for a long time.

Qi Yuan's dinner was simple.

A piece of crystal rice, a piece of golden giant eel meat, a few pieces of Yunxi bamboo shoots, plus a charcoal grilled prawn, and a bowl of Qingyue algae soup.

The quantity of each item is small, but the quality is generally relatively good. Sprinkling with excellent grade rock salt improves the flavor a lot.

Even if Qi Yuan finished eating these things, he would need to exercise for a long time to digest them.

As for Chu Wenxi and Zhou Yue, they ate high-quality steaks with noodles.

They are all good grade, but they are weak and cannot eat much.

Therefore, only two people can share a piece of steak.

While the three of them were eating.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside.
