23 No rice fields found

When Lu Beier woke up that morning, she found that the small speaker on the bedside cabinet had turned purple. She thought it was an illusion caused by the not very bright light outside the window in the morning.

She transferred some supernatural power to it, and the small trumpet swayed happily, and the light gradually brightened. Although it was a bit dazzling, Lu Beier was sure that it had indeed turned purple, and through the supernatural power she learned a fact, that is, the small trumpet had reached level five!

It grew one level so quickly!

She quickly called up her property panel:

Xiaolaba is indeed a level five supernatural power, while she herself is still a pitiful level one.

This won't do. Lu Bei'er feels a sense of urgency about upgrading her supernatural powers. They are so far behind her own plant pets that she can't even do it herself!

Since I don’t need to collect supplies today, I might as well use my wood-type ability to plant the four rice plants I harvested last night.

So, today, after Lu Beier finished her breakfast, she took the prepared lunch and water cups. They were the kind of free glass cups printed with certain building materials and hardware, kitchen and bathroom decoration, and China Mobile and China Unicom.

Lu Beier found a lot of supplies when she was collecting them. She randomly took out a few and put them in the storage warehouse for future use. There were also a lot of tea leaves, which were packed in various inconspicuous iron barrels. Some of them were famous teas with beautiful packaging, but most of them should be wild teas unique to the mountains here. It was just a little hard to get used to drinking it, so Lu Beier just drank boiled water directly. Finally, she picked a few clean peaches and pears.

Carrying various farming tools, wearing long-sleeved shirts and long pants, a towel, straw hat and a small trumpet, he quickly went out, down the mountainside, and came to the nearest field on one side of the village.

The valley mouth is connected to a valley bottom, with irregular fields scattered in an orderly manner, and the terraces in the distance are connected to them.

Lu Beier stood in front of a high ridge (it was too hard to walk on the ridge now), and she pushed aside the white grass that was as tall as a person, and then she could see the farmland in front of her. At first glance, it was full of vitality and green. If it weren't for the white grass on the ridge that separated the irregular shapes, you couldn't tell what was growing in the rice fields.

The end of the world begins in July, and late rice is planted in June, so the late rice in the rice fields must be planted in June now, and will be harvested in October to November.

But now, Lu Beier looked around and saw that the fields were almost entirely covered with weeds that were more than one meter or even two meters high. Various wormwood, barnyard grass, and sedges were densely popping up, and they contrasted with the rows of white grass that were much taller than the ridges. I thought they were neatly planted in rows of white grass. Especially when the white grass had all reached the stage of heading and flowering,

When the wind blows, the inflorescences of the white grass float high, and from a distance they look like ribbons stretching across the plains, which is very beautiful.

In particular, there are a few unknown crooked trees interspersed among them, and now the vines entwined on them are like dense green hills. They are not even abrupt at all, just like embellishments on this ribbon of white grass.

It really makes people marvel at the wonders of nature!

Lu Bei'er pinched her waist and looked at this finishing touch, which made her feel both amused and helpless.

It would be even more beautiful if this was replaced by a golden rice field!

Lubel bent down and pushed aside the dense red-stemmed barnyard grass closest to her, muttering to herself, "It would be nice if I had a cow, because cows love to eat this stuff." Pulling aside a layer of barnyard grass, underneath were crabgrass, beef tendons, and duck tongues... There was nothing it couldn't grow, except for what you couldn't recognize.

Where is the rice that the villagers originally planted? If you dig through the dense grass, you can still find some rice, which is a sparse yellow withered color. It should be because the nutrients have been deprived and it has not seen the sun and dew for a long time.

Experiencing the same apocalypse, why is it that the rice still cannot defeat the weeds?

Lu Beier pulled out a few drooping rice ears from the field. The stalks were thin and weak, the leaves were yellow and dry, and even the ears had only a few grains, and they were all shrunken. She tried hard to dig in several places, but you couldn't find it without good eyesight. In the past, we pulled weeds in the rice fields, but now we pick rice ears in the meadows.

The little trumpet was particularly excited today. Without Lu Beier's signal, it directly spread out its branches and was about to attack the rice field in front of it. Lu Beier immediately raised her hand to stop it.

"Little Trumpet! Wait a minute, I'll think of a better way!"

This area is full of unripe rice fields. Even though they are now filled with weeds and there is hardly a single ear of rice on the surface, there are indeed late rice planted by the villagers in June underneath. This valley and even the terraced fields on the slopes cover at least several hundred acres of land.

Even though it hadn't been taken care of for the past three months, a lot of the late rice that had been planted still stubbornly grew right next to the weeds.

This is a mountainous area. If the rice is harvested here, it may taste better than the ordinary rice on the market. There may also be fragrant rice and glutinous rice that taste even better.

Yesterday and even the day before yesterday, Lu Beier collected information from about thirty households. Apart from a few grains of rice that she saw on the floor of the warehouse at the beginning, she hardly saw any rice. The villagers should have taken away the seeds they had saved. The late rice was not harvested this year, and I don't know how many rice seeds they can plant. Those should be their hope for next year.

The malnourished rice seedlings hidden under the weeds in front of her were also Lu Beier's hope. She really couldn't bear to clear away all the weeds in front of her and the rice seedlings underneath.

She didn't think she had the time and ability to rely on her only four rice ears and the first-level wood-related ability to directly produce the staple food she needed every day.

The weather in the end times is very changeable, and this is a mountainous area. Just because she hasn't encountered any large wild animals in the past two days doesn't mean she won't encounter any in the future. She needs to prepare for the rainy day and store a lot of food for the winter.

Therefore, if the rice seedlings in these hundreds of acres of rice fields could be saved, she would never give up on them.

But how to do it?

The only thing Lu Beier could think of was to stimulate the birth of superpowers. However, facing the current situation, she only had a level one superpower...

If Xiaojiu were here, perhaps he could give her some advice, but no one knows when he will return.

Another point is that although Xiaojiu is not here, the system's functions can still be used, such as storage and detection.

It is worth mentioning that just now when Lu Beier was pulling weeds to find rice ears, the system made a few announcements, saying that various non-mutated weeds were detected. But it did not make a sound when she was holding a few wilted rice ears in her hands.

Does this mean that even the system does not consider these rice seedlings to be valuable?

The current system seemed to prompt whether to recycle the plant, regardless of whether it was a newly detected species or not, as long as it was a non-mutated plant. But Lu Bei'er didn't have time to recycle it.
