Chen suddenly developed a passion for farming.

The treasure chest is completely unstoppable, even if it tries to emphasize——

[The mother planet has no soil, we can't exchange so much soil back, it will hollow out the earth, people on earth will not agree! 】

[Seeds may die on the way back. 】

[The owner doesn't know anything about planting, so take it home and waste~]

But Chen was unwavering, so he planned to go to the countryside to see and learn.Xu Weibian recommended himself as his guide.

After the map of the treasure chest was submitted to the relevant department, it was taken seriously by the leaders of City N, and they are already investigating the road.Under the recommendation of the mentor, the map was taken by another buyer, and they got a lot of money. Now Xu Wei is completely devoted to Chen Wu and has completely become his follower.

The scenery in the suburbs is very different from that of the city, there are no tall buildings and crowded people.The land on the side of the road is ridge by ridge, big and small, some are covered with sheds, some are covered with plastic film, and they are arranged in rows.

"This place is the back vegetable garden in city n. They contracted it to grow it, but the vegetables in the greenhouse are troublesome and require spraying. I'll take you back to my grandma's house. Pure farm food is better than this." Xu Wei introduced while driving.

Chen watched the green vegetable fields on both sides of the road speeding past, the car circled the mountain, and the mountain seemed to revolve around them, which was very interesting.

The farther you get away from the city, the more open the land is, and the colors in front of your eyes are also richer, including golden——

"That's mature rice." Xu Wei said.

yellow-green—

"It's about to mature~"

taupe--

"After harvesting, turn the ground and plant the next season~"

Sparse green——

"That's a newly planted seedling~"

Many people were working in the field. Xu Wei stopped the car and honked the horn. Among the farmers gathered on the ridge not far away, a man waved his hand.

"Uncle, what about pumping water?" Xu Wei shouted.

"Hey, Xiaowei is back." The middle-aged man came over, smoking a cigarette, "Isn't it? There is no water in the ditch, and we are discussing how to get it here. It's hot today, what are you doing when you come back?"

"It's hotter in the city, come back for a walk." Xu Wei said.

"That's right, it's cooler in the village." The man grinned and handed over the things. "Bringing friends back? I caught some fish today, and you take two back."

Xu Wei stretched out his head to take it and said, "Where did the fish come from?"

"There isn't much water in the ditch, and the fish and shrimp are all stranded, just catch them casually." The man shook his head. "If it doesn't rain today, Daqu may not last long."

"Didn't it rain a few days ago?"

"Hey, I just went to another place. The little rain we have here is not enough to drench the vegetable field once."

"It's okay, don't we still have a reservoir?"

"That's troublesome. It depends on the top whether to release the water or not. We can't decide. And I heard that the water level of the reservoir has also dropped in the past two days. The weather this year is unusual..." The man said worriedly.

Chen read the worry on his face, and couldn't help comforting him: "It will rain."

The other side nodded with a smile and watched them leave.

Xu Wei's grandparents are over 70 years old and don't want to live in the city, so they live in the countryside growing vegetables.

"In terms of growing vegetables, there is no one in the village who is better than my grandma!" Xu Wei said proudly.

Chen followed behind the old lady, helping her carry the hoe, carry water, turn the soil, fertilize, sow seeds...it seems very simple!

The next day, Chen got up early and squatted down to stare at the ground, asking, "When will they germinate?"

Xu Wei couldn't laugh or cry: "It's not that fast, the fastest will be three days."

Chen was stumped.Although he has time, he can't keep staring at it for three days and three nights. The treasure chest must be regarded as alien by the people on earth.

But he still couldn't help staring at it all morning.

The grandfather greeted under the eaves: "The ground is drying, come back soon~"

He responded, motionless, without blinking.

Until the grandma said: "Don't look at the baby, come and eat melon~ You keep watching, it is nervous, so it won't dare to sprout."

"!!"

Chen didn't look at it now, and ran back quickly.

Xu Wei laughed and said, "Grandma still has a way."

After eating the melon, grandma said again: "Let's go, let's fetch water~"

Xu's well is an old-fashioned hand-cranked well, and this is the first time Chen has seen it.He lay down on the mouth of the well, quietly adjusted the pattern of his eyes, and looked down.

Grandma was lowering the bucket and said, "This well is more than ten meters deep, baby be careful."

Then he muttered: "Why didn't it end for so long..."

Chen saw the water in the well. The water flowed slowly and was crystal clear. The old man shook the rope twice, and the bucket floating on the water tilted once.

"I'll do it." Chen leaned over, shaking the handle with one hand, and when the turntable twisted the rope and the fully loaded bucket came up, he easily pulled it over and lifted the tin bucket.

"My baby is very strong, unlike our Xiaowei, who struggled with both hands and gasped for a long time." Grandma said with satisfaction.

Xu Wei: "..."

Chen excitedly filled a bottle of well water, intending to take it back to pour stones.It's cool and cool, his stone must like it!

He didn't live until the third day to wait for the seeds to germinate. He was always worried that he couldn't help but look at them, so he simply went back to City N and came back a week later.

When they returned, water had been successfully diverted to the field, and the villagers were busy irrigating the seedling fields.In the watery mud fields, the slender and long seedlings stand upright and seem to shake happily in the wind.

I just didn't expect that a week later...

……

"What, what happened in the field?" Xu Wei couldn't sit still in the car anymore, he pulled over to one side, and got down to the field to turn around.

There was indeed no water in the ditch, the seedling field was dry, and the ground was cracked with fist-sized cracks, and the seedlings were drooping listlessly, and they almost shouted "I'm thirsty".

The crops in the mountains are already showing signs of scorching.

"Why didn't anyone fetch the water?"

"Where do we get it? Our village and a large area next door are short of water..." the villager said with a sigh. "The reservoir has also been warned, and we are thinking about pumping water from a deep well to try."

However, Chen looked at the well and found that the water had also become shallow.The vegetable field in the yard is irrigated by the elderly every day, so it is growing well.

He was a little relieved, but listening to the villagers' discussions, it seemed that the matter was serious.The wells they dug are not enough to irrigate the fields of the whole village, and now they are worried.The atmosphere in the village suddenly became heavy.

Chen felt that oppressive air.

【If the drought continues, crop yields will be reduced, or even no crops will be harvested.For the people on earth, this is a matter of life and death. 】The treasure chest said.

Chen couldn't help thinking about it. He remembered that there was a big river in N City, and the water was always abundant, but Xu Wei said it was too far away, and it was unrealistic to transport water.

It would be great if you could use the treasure chest, which has infinite space to store water.However, once the treasure chest was opened... Chen bowed his head and fell into a dilemma.

He has only been on Earth for two months, and he doesn't want to reveal his identity yet.

But the treasure chest also said: [Does the master need to open the space?I collected some water when I left the water star, enough for the village. 】

Chen was even more embarrassed.

He ended up with nothing to do.

He has endless strength and energy, but he can't use it. He can only watch the grass wither and listen to the sound of the ground...

"I remember the mountain not far from our field." Xu Wei said suddenly. "There is a spring, I used to play in it when I was a child, can you dig out the water?"

"It's been so long, I'm afraid it's too late." Grandma said, and went out to talk to others.

Chen's eyes blinked, and he looked at the mountains in the distance, and then at the land under his feet.The plants in the yard are growing well, it looks like underground...

[There is an underground river down the well. 】The treasure chest said.

Chen immediately extended his sight, and sure enough, he saw several water veins, thick and thin, deep and shallow, like a giant net lurking silently.

He looked at the mountain that Xu Wei had mentioned, where the trees were verdant, and there was indeed a vein of water under the mountain, and he couldn't help but patted his little friend excitedly.

The villagers finally found the spring on the mountain, dug out the water, and led it down the mountain. They should be able to cope with it for a while.

Sitting in the car on the return journey, Chen stared at the vast fields outside the window in a daze.

【Why is the master tired? 】The treasure chest asked.

Chen never gets tired, but Treasure Box still senses that something is wrong.He no longer sat upright like before, but his body was completely attached to the seat, and his eyes no longer followed a certain small tree and wild flowers on the side of the road, but lowered slightly, keeping his eyes at the same angle for a long time.

Chen shook his head. "I am not tired."

However, the treasure box knew that the owner was unhappy.

[Is it because of the lack of water in the village? 】

"No."

【why? 】

Chen only felt the tightness in his chest and couldn't speak.He didn't want to embarrass the treasure chest.While the treasure chest probably wouldn't be in trouble, it never hesitated when it came to leaving.

But it will worry about the master.

【Master has done his best. 】The treasure chest comforted me.

Chen was still limp, his body slipped down.

[If the owner is worried about the drought, it doesn't matter. ] Treasure Box sighed and decided to tell him.

[It will rain tomorrow. 】

Chen:! !

He was so excited that Carp almost jumped up and said, "Really?!"

Xu Wei was bluffed by him, and said nervously: "What's the matter, did you forget something?"

[Really, it will rain. 】

Very good!Chest predictions are never wrong!

Chen clenched his fists and said excitedly: "Xu Wei! It will rain in the village tomorrow! It will definitely rain!"

Xu Wei was stunned for a moment, almost forgot to look at the road, the car shook for a while.

He didn't know why Chen was so sure.There is no rain in the weather forecast, and the folks also say that the drought may not end so soon, but...

He nodded vigorously and smiled: "You are the luckiest, if you say you will do it, then you will definitely do it!"

"That's right!"

The two were happy in the car.

Treasure Chest: […]

Even before things happened...the two of them were already cheering like crazy.

However, the mood of the treasure box is also inexplicably good.

The owner always trusts it unconditionally.

The owner also found a friend who fully trusted him.

This was something they had never experienced in their interstellar travel, and perhaps this planet will give them more surprises.
