On the tenth year after the natural disaster, I went to farm with me

After trying all the tricks, but still unable to defeat the little grazing sheep, the little honey badger was so angry that she lay on the ground and groaned, refusing to get up.

The sheep boss raised his head high and looked at Xia Qing.

Tang Huai? The moment the little honey badger stopped getting up, he ran away.

Chen Zheng? We have returned to Mountain No. 49, and there is only one person, one sheep, and one badger left here.

"The little flat head came over to provoke me. I was not in the territory, so the boss came out and defeated it. Boss, you are so reliable. What should we do without you in our territory? What should I do without you? Boss, you It is really the most reliable sheep in the world. If Blue Star had a ranking list of reliable evolved sheep, boss, you would definitely be ranked first..."

"Mea."

"Yes, it's getting dark and the boss is hungry. Let's go home for dinner? The barley grass is growing in the field. Can I pinch some for the boss?"

"Mea~~~"

Barley grass is wheat grass.

The two evolved flat-tasseled ice grass that Broken Waist Wolf sent to Xia Qing last year were planted to death by Xia Qing. After that, she would look for this kind of grass every time she went to the evolutionary forest, and she actually found a few of them. Edible. This small handful of seeds was not enough to plant, so Xia Qing exchanged two bags of grass seeds through Zhong Tao.

Before the natural disaster, wheatgrass was used to feed livestock; the evolved wheatgrass after the natural disaster is one of the main raw materials used to make compressed rations at the Lancheng base in northwest China. It is also grown in the breeding center of the Huisan base. The grass is partly used to make rations and partly used to feed livestock. The grass seeds that Xia Qing and Zhong Tao exchanged were green lantern grass seeds cultivated in the Huisan Safety Zone Planting Center.

Since Xia Qing exchanged the meat of the high-grade green light python to Zhong Tao and Zheng Kui last year, these two people have been particularly attentive to finding seeds for Xia Qing.

This spring, Xia Qing not only planted some seeds of Green Light Evolution Agropyron in the terraces to cultivate better grass seeds, but also sown them in the buffer forest of Territory No. 3 and in the valley of District 3 of No. 49 Mountain. A lot of it is used to feed the sheep and wild boars in the valley.

Every once in a while, humans will use helicopters to sow high-quality grass seeds, vegetable seeds and grain seeds cultivated by the planting center in the evolutionary forest outside the safe zone. This matter is a secret of the base.

Some of these plants with green or yellow lights will also be discovered by surprise by the collection team who are out on missions. They will be collected and brought back to the safe area and handed over to the mission hall in exchange for points. Then, the task hall classified the recovered plants according to variety and quality, and most of them were sent to food processing plants to make compressed rations and other foods. A small number of high-quality varieties were returned to the safety zone for further cultivation.

The first time he heard Yang Jin talk about this matter, Xia Qing was speechless for a long time. She never thought that the plants she had worked so hard to collect in the evolutionary forest with the team were actually spread by people from the base.

Yang Jin understands the base's approach very well, "The planting center cultivates green light plant seeds that are not scarce, and the materials exchanged for them are far inferior to sowing them in the evolutionary forest and allowing the plants to grow and evolve naturally. The benefits are many. This will not only optimize the seeds, but also improve the quality of the wild animals in the evolutionary forest near the safe zone, giving the team something to do and less fighting.”

Xia Qing felt that Yang Jin was right.

The population density in the safe area of ​​the base is high and the planting area is limited. The crops grown cannot meet the needs of two million people. And on the other hand, there can't be enough jobs in the safety zone, so people who don't have jobs have to find something to do.

Going out to collect is one of the main tasks of the team. Every year, the team organizes a large number of manpower to go out to collect. In order to collect more materials, the team will recruit non-staff personnel. Evolvers like Xia Qing and some ordinary people with strong physical fitness obtain survival materials by participating in gathering tasks or hunting tasks.

As for why it was kept secret, Xia Qing understood it after thinking about it carefully.

If it is not kept secret, people's expectations and sense of accomplishment when going out to collect will be greatly reduced, and many complaints will arise.

Xia Qing suspected that the evolved perilla she discovered after arriving in the territory last year was grown from seeds sown in the safe zone, because the evolved perilla is the main raw material for making No. 3 rations at Huisan Base. There is also alfalfa in territory 4, which should be the same.

And the iron soybeans that she treated as a treasure last year and were cared for with good fertilizer and water for half a year must have been seeds sown in the safe zone!

Even the Gao Yi elemental green spinach on the hillside in her territory is an optimized species that emerged after natural evolution from spinach seeds sown by drones at the base.

This possibility excited Xia Qing.

Because if this is true, it proves that the soil in the Gao Yi element planting zone in her territory can indeed cultivate higher quality spinach seeds. If she cultivates it carefully for another two years, she might be able to cultivate high-quality spinach with an I element content exceeding 10!

The seeds of the flat spike ice mist grass in the evolutionary forest should also be sown by the base, because this kind of grass seed is not scarce.

After the rain, many of the ice mist grass seeds Xia Qing sown in the buffer forest and the third area took root and sprouted, adding a lot of fun to the sheep boss.

Because it likes to find edible grass to eat in the buffer forest.

The reason why Xia Qing now calls the flat spike grass "barley grass" is because Yuan Yan saw the flat spike grass planted by Xia Qing in the terraces when she came to her territory before, and said that this kind of grass was called barley grass in their hometown. Xia Qing felt that this name was more friendly, so he changed the title.

"Boss, next time you go out to fight with Little Flathead, you must put on your protective clothing, otherwise you will be in trouble if you get bitten by it..."

The little honey badger, lying on the isolation belt, was snorting and staring at the two enemies with its black eyes. When they walked away, the little honey badger turned over and got up, ran into the evolution forest of Area 3, and viciously practiced its claws on the pine tree that it had scratched off a piece of bark before, and then turned around to look for food.

After running so far and fighting again, it was thirsty and hungry.

Grass has strong vitality and grows much faster than vegetables. Xia Qing picked some barley grass leaves in the terraced fields, put a bucket of pollution-free spring water from the spring cave into the backpack, covered it with a lid, and took the sheep boss home to cook and eat.

"Brother, what are you thinking about?"

In the No. 12 territory, Tang Heng handed the hand towel to Tang Huai, who was standing by the wash basin in a daze.

Tang Huai took the tissue and wiped his hands clean, then sat at the table and muttered, "I'm so annoyed. The people from Territory No. 14 are trying to sow discord between me and Xia Qing!"

Tang Heng smiled, "You and Xia Qing didn't have a good relationship to begin with, so there's no need for anyone to sow discord. What did Yan Meng do?"

"It wasn't Yan Meng, it was a new guy in his territory named Liao Chen..." Tang Huai told the story and viciously stuffed a piece of food into his mouth with chopsticks. (End of this chapter)
