Cats grow fields in the apocalyptic wasteland

The four of them went out in the afternoon and brought a lot of rope and sacks, preparing to cut some grass and come back.

After leaving the base, the grass outside suddenly became luxuriant. Except for a few mutated grasses, the other grasses were very ordinary.

Several people tightened their trousers and waded in the grass, and soon their bodies were covered with grass seeds and leaves.

Grass leaves and branches hit her body, and Xia Lunong's clothes were cut several times, and there were also slight scratches on the back of her hands.

Xia Lunong took a look at these grass leaves and branches, "It's hard for calves to chew on such sharp grass leaves."

"I'll find them again." Xia Huoqu glanced at the clear sky above his head, "It's already autumn, and I don't think we can find any tender grass leaves."

"That's true." Xia Lunong followed his brother with one foot deep and one foot shallow, panting lightly, "Brother, how far do we have to go now?"

They have to find a place to take root for the honeysuckle body today.

The place too close to the base cannot be planted, fearing that other people in the base will panic, so they plan to find a place farther away from the base.

Their base is in a valley on the mountainside. Outside the base, there are layers of mountains. In addition to the two sides of the main road, there are terraced fields in the mountains that were opened by people nearby before the catastrophe.

These terraced fields have been cultivated by people, and the land is relatively fertile, no longer barren loess or brick red soil.

They are now looking for such a place, a place that has been opened up by others, not far from the base, with relatively fertile soil and convenient water.

Such a place is not easy to find. They walked round and round along the mountain on a hot day, but they still couldn't find a really suitable place.

The places I found were either not spacious enough, or the soil was not fertile enough, or it was inconvenient to get water. After careful consideration, it seemed that there were deficiencies everywhere.

Kong Zhi also took Xia Lunong to the sky to look around several times.

When they were in the sky, because of the mountain cover, they couldn't see clearly, so they had to go down and search slowly.

Xia Huo's channel: "Take your time to find it. The pasture field is okay. Once the honeysuckle is planted, it will be difficult to move. Think carefully once and for all to avoid any trouble in the future."

Xia Lunong thought of the honeysuckle bushes outside the library, and nodded in deep agreement.

Today they are not only planting honeysuckle, but also looking for a place to stay for their friends. It is true that they can't be too hard.

Yan Xi Nian said: "Or planted in the river valley, along the river, it will be convenient to get water in the future. The honeysuckle itself is so huge, and it will consume a lot of water when it grows in the future."

They had just seen the valley.

Xia Lunong said disapprovingly: "Others are fine, but I am afraid that there will be mountain torrents in summer, and the terrain is too low."

Xia Huo channel: "If we can't find it today, we will come out and look for a few more days. Xiao Nong, your ability can keep it alive. It doesn't matter if you look for a few more days. We have the right to come out today to inspect the surrounding environment."

Xia Huoqu spoke, and everyone had no objections.

Everyone ran against the scorching sun and gradually moved away from the base.

Their base is in the mountains, bypassing two mountains, but after going down the mountain, there is a large plain.

Xia Lunong stood on the top of the mountain with her hips crossed and looked down.

The catastrophe has passed so long, and the plain below has been searched countless times. There are not many dangerous mutant plants and not many valuable things in it. Now it has become a paradise for green plants.

Xia Lunong stretched out her hand and asked suddenly: "Are we going to move down from the mountains and live on the plains?"

"I can't tell." Yan Xiannian paused, "I can't say anything now, who knows if there will be any subsequent mutations after this catastrophe? Honeysuckle also said that many mutated animals and plants are further deformed, I don’t know what will happen in the future, let alone live down the mountain.”

It is true that they live in the mountains, but the isolation also guarantees a certain degree of safety.

There are relatively few resources in the mountains, and they built the city wall again. As long as people are sent to watch the city wall every day, safety can basically be guaranteed.

If they go down the mountain, the plains extend in all directions, no matter where the mutated animals and plants come from, they can't escape.

Xia Lunong let out a long breath, "If we go back to the mountains to live in the future, it would be a very good choice to plant honeysuckle on the plains. The soil is fertile and it is easy to get water."

"It's not sure." Yan Xi Nian said, "I think the honeysuckle must be planted on the hills outside the base. It is difficult to get water from the hills, but other plants can grow on the hills, and the honeysuckle should be fine."

Xia Huoqu said lightly: "It's better to plant them in the plain at the foot of the mountain. At least everything at the foot of the mountain is okay, but there is less contact with humans."

Kong Zhi interjected, "Or plant it at the foot of the mountain? With the ability of honeysuckle, self-protection should be no problem."

Several people were blowing the wind, and there was another silence.

Yan Xiannian turned to look at Xia Lunong, and said, "Xiao Nong will make the decision. Honeysuckle entrusts her body to you, and you are the one to decide."

Xia Lunong turned her head and looked around, feeling a little melancholy in her heart, "Then let's walk again? Maybe we can find a good place later."

There are only so many mountains nearby, and several people usually go out of the base to have a general understanding of the nearby terrain.

If you can't find it after turning around a few times, it means that there is really no suitable place nearby.

It is estimated that in a few days, it will be the same result.

Xia Lunong had been thinking about it all afternoon, and seeing that it was getting dark, she also made up her mind, "Then let's plant in the plain at the foot of the mountain."

He murmured to himself, "The foot of the mountain is a bit far away. With its ability, survival should not be a problem. Let's plant some grass around it so that we can visit it more often. Then we will drive down the mountain." Mowing the lawn is also quite convenient.”

Xia Huoqu: "Decided?"

"It's decided." Xia Lunong sniffed, "There is no result after turning around, so there is no delay."

Xiahuo channel: "Then plant it below."

Several people went down the mountain.

The way down the mountain is much easier than going up the mountain, and a few people walked out a little briskly.

It just looked like the place was not far from the foot, but in fact Wangshan ran to death, and it took them more than an hour to reach the foot of the mountain, and their calves were sore from walking.

The plain at the foot of the mountain has long been cultivated by humans, and it can be regarded as cultivated land, with excellent conditions in all aspects.

Xia Lunong chose a place not far from the river or the road, and put down the backpack on her back, "Then let's use this as the center of the circle and mow the grass around?"

"Yes." Xia Huo channeled, "Be careful to distinguish when mowing grass. Good grass is baleed back to feed the cows, and ordinary grass is thrown in the field."

The purpose of their coming out this time included mowing grass, and now they killed two birds with one stone, and everyone had no objections.

Four people divided into four directions, and slowly mowed the grass with a sickle.

Xia Huoqu was not worried about the others, but he was especially worried about his brother, "Be careful when you mow the grass, pay attention to snakes and insects, especially the big ants."

"understood."

Xia Lunong turned her head and glanced, the big ants are easy to eat and catch, and taste good, and now they have become a dish in their base.

Regardless of whether they can transform into beasts or not, people can generally guarantee their own safety when they come out to catch ants. Therefore, many people will run out of the base to catch ants in their spare time.

After one or two months, the ants near the base are almost extinct.

Fortunately, the ant meat was slightly sour and could not be eaten as food, so they escaped unharmed.

Xia Lunong bent down and carefully mowed the grass. After a while, he saw a snake in the grass.

All he saw were less vicious snakes.

There are also many kinds of snakes, some taste good, some are fishy and smelly, and they can't be eaten at all. The ones he saw belonged to the ones that couldn't be eaten.

Xia Lu let out a deep breath, raised the knife in her hand, and directly chopped off the head of the nearby snake.

After such a long time of baptism, he is no longer that frail young man, and ordinary snakes and insects can hardly do anything to him.

Several people moved very quickly, and cut 23 bales of grass in less than an hour.

These grass cattle can be eaten, even if some are not so palatable, they can be carried back and cut into pieces of grass, and mixed with oil meal or soybean meal, they can also feed the cattle.

Seeing that it was getting dark, the few people didn't mow too much.

Xia Huoqu straightened up, "Xiao Nong, plant the honeysuckle first."

"Okay." Xia Lunong took out the honeysuckle body wrapped in cloth from her backpack.

This section of green flower vines is exactly the same as when he took over.

Xia Lunong felt it carefully, but didn't feel any consciousness from it.

This section of honeysuckle vine is exactly the same as the normal flower vine without mutation.

Xia Lunong looked at it carefully for a while, then turned his eyes away.

Xia Huoqu and the others dug a big hole in the middle of the mowed grass, and picked out all the gravel and grass roots inside, leaving only the fluffy and fertile soil.

Xia Lunong planted the honeysuckle in the pit, filled it with soil, and buried the roots of the honeysuckle.

Yan Xiannian went to fetch water and drenched the nearby soil.

Xia Huoqu: "That's all right?"

"Okay, I'll give it some powers, and it will be fine."

Xia Lunong said, closing her eyes and using her abilities.

As soon as his power fell on the honeysuckle, the honeysuckle vine immediately sprouted thin leaf buds.

Presumably it will grow new leaves tonight.

The honeysuckle was planted, the water was watered, and they were done. All they could do was wait.

Xia Lunong greeted, "Let's go back with the grass on our backs, it's too late today."

Xia Huo channel: "Your old brother and I carried grass back in the shape of an animal, and you helped to tie the grass. You will fly back and cook in advance. After we go back, we will go directly to Aunt Zheng to unload the grass, and then go back to eat. "

"Okay." Xia Lunong looked up, "Brother, what do you want to eat tonight?"

Xia Huoqu asked unceremoniously, "Meat."
