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

Chapter 745: Peas with Four Generations of Stability
This car is fun to drive, but it needs diesel, which needs to be purchased with points, so after Xia Qing drove a few laps and had a little fun, she took Yang Lao Da home and parked the car in the living room on the first floor of the shed that had been cleaned up in advance, separated from her micro-tiller by a wall.

"Boss, let's go." Xia Qing took the thick "Instructions for Use of the Beast IV Off-Road Vehicle" in the car and called his companions to go out. The door of the scaffolding building was not equipped with a screen, so they had to go out quickly and close the door, otherwise many mosquitoes would come in.

The big sheep rubbed the car body with its body to express its love for the car, and then followed Xia Qing out of the garage.

Xia Qing took a drinking bucket and went to the spring cave to fetch water, and checked the growth of the weeds.

The third plant of the weed, which was formed by dividing the lateral buds cut off in March, is still small, but its fibrous roots have already penetrated into the soil, and the leaves are no longer wilted. This shows that the roots can absorb nutrients from the soil and provide for the growth of the leaves.

Xia Qing actually owned three stalks of the weed.

Some time ago, after discovering that the cut side bud had grown fibrous roots, Xia Qing cut off the second side bud as well. That side bud did not melt into water either and is now in a wilted state. It is estimated that it will take nearly a month for fibrous roots to grow.

By then, Xia Qing will have four plants of the grass!
What is even more gratifying is that after Xia Qing cut off the side buds, the plant of weeds that had seven leaves cut off sprouted another side bud.

Although the mature seeds of the sedge were buried in the soil, Xia Qing looked carefully and could not see any small sprouts coming out of the soil. According to the cultivation guide given to her by Zhang San, if the seeds of the sedge did not germinate in the spring, they would enter a dormant period in the summer due to the rising temperature, and would not germinate and grow until the fall or the following spring.

Xia Qing was not in a hurry, because the amount of scutellaria she had now was enough for detoxification. If these seeds eventually lost their vitality and none of them germinated, she would give up the method of propagating more scutellaria with seeds and switch to propagation by division.

After checking the weeds, Xia Qing came to the open space on both sides of the greenhouse and scared away the birds of all sizes that were digging insects out of the soil to eat.

When she was weeding yesterday, she found some cutworms and grubs, which means that these two insects are not only resistant to the insecticides distributed in the safe area, but also to the insecticide developed by Zhang San last year, so they need to be cleaned up manually.

When the startled birds saw Xia Qing squatting there and not leaving, they could only land a little further away and continue digging for insects to eat.

Xia Qing closed her eyes and listened carefully to the sounds made by creatures in the soil from the sounds of wind, water, birds, frogs, and insects such as crickets.

The rustling sound is the sound of slender earthworms wriggling. Earthworms are beneficial insects and should not be caught. The rustling and crunching sounds are the sounds of cutworms and white grubs gnawing at roots.

She quickly locked onto her target and accurately dug out a large, fat grub from the ten-centimeter-deep soil, then threw it to the magpie squatting nearby and waiting.

Although these magpies do not live in her territory, every time Xia Qing turns over the soil outside the greenhouse or weeds, they will come over to look for insects to eat in the soil. They are Xia Qing's good neighbors.

Like the howl of a wolf, the call of a bird also has the function of expressing strong emotions and conveying information. After more contact with birds, Xia Qing can also distinguish some information from their calls.

When birds sing melodiously and spread their feathers, it means they are in the breeding season and are trying their best to attract the attention of their mates; when they hop on the branches and sing very quickly, they are conveying messages that make them happy; when their voices are rapid and high-pitched, they are expressing anger or anxiety.

Now, the magpie that got the prize is very happy, while the magpies and wild pigeons that didn't get the prize are very angry.

Xia Qing raised the corner of her mouth, and when she dug up the second worm, she threw it to the angry bird. Then, the guy really screamed with joy.

Digging insects gives Xia Qing a sense of accomplishment, and feeding birds also makes her feel a sense of accomplishment.

The sun turned to a certain angle in the west, and the sheep grazing on the hillside stepped out of Territory No. 3. At the same time, the little honey badger, who had grown up a little, also came with its arrogant snow-white flat head.

A sheep and a honey badger started fighting, and the noise interference increased.

This was a good opportunity to exercise her hearing, and Xia Qing focused more on using her hearing to distinguish the slight sounds made by pests.

When it was getting dark, Boss Yang opened two doors and returned to the territory, and came to Xia Qing with his head held high.

Xia Qing immediately praised his companion, "Boss, you defeated the little honey badger so quickly? That's amazing! You've been riding your bike a lot these past two days, so your legs must be more flexible, right?" "Meh!"

"Boss is awesome. He works hard every day. Boss is getting stronger and stronger, and our territory is getting safer. Boss is worthy of being the pride of the Evolved Sheep..."

"Crack!"

There was a sound of a big tree breaking and falling outside the territory, and the sheep boss was startled. Xia Qing rubbed the little curly hair on its head, walked to the iron mesh wall, and saw a waist-thick tree fallen on the northern isolation zone outside the iron mesh wall.

The one that fell down was the one that the little flat-headed boy would bite to vent his anger every time he was defeated by the big sheep.

After helping Xia Qing clear the snakes and rats from Area 3 of Mountain 49, this little guy found a new use - logging.

"Thank you, little bald man." Xia Qing walked out by scanning his face and dragged the tree that had fallen on the isolation belt into area three.

The bald guy tried to bite Xia Qing angrily, but she gently kicked him away because Xia Qing was afraid that the bald guy would bite through the new summer clothes she had bought at a high price.

The little flat-head rolled over and got up, raised his nose to sniff, and immediately stopped paying attention to Xia Qing. He turned around and started biting the broken end of the tree.

Xia Qing walked over and found that there were worms growing in the heart of the tree. It turned out that the little flat-headed man bit the tree every time after a fight, not just to vent his anger, but also to eat the worms.

The animals that can survive in the evolution forest after eleven years of natural disasters all have a certain level of survival wisdom.

Xia Qing returned to the territory and asked the sheep boss to carry the basket on his back. The basket on the left was filled with a large bucket of drinking water, and the basket on the right was used to hold vegetables.

She wanted to eat steamed eggplant and scrambled eggs with green peppers in the evening, and cold tomatoes tomorrow morning. She picked some and put them in the basket. She picked a handful of long beans, blanched them with hot water, and dried them to stew meat in the winter. She picked a few cucumbers that the sheep boss liked to eat, and cut a handful of alfalfa. "We're done, let's go home."

When passing the pea bed, the eldest sheep stopped moving.

Xia Qing turned around and asked, "Want to eat pea tips?"

"Mea~"

"The peas are starting to bloom. We can't pick too many. Let's pick a handful and bring them back for the boss to mix with the food."

"Mee~~" The sound of Boss Yang's clip was soft and long, which made Xia Qing feel soft in her heart.

The peas planted in this vegetable patch were found by Zhong Tao and Zheng Kui from Huiyi Base. 300 bean seeds grew into 105 bean seedlings, with a germination rate of 35%, which is at least ten points lower than the germination rate of ordinary yellow light seeds. This is after Xia Qing soaked them in pollution-free spring water.

Although planted in terraced fields rich in high-nutrient soil, the pea seedlings, which had a phytochemical content of 8‰ when they germinated, now have a phytochemical content of more than 9‰. When the peas mature, the phytochemical content will definitely exceed 10‰, and many will become red-light plants if the second crop is planted.

This means that the plant seeds cultivated by Hui Yi, which have two-generation stability, are only stable for one generation in Hui San's territory.

Although Xia Qing and Yang Lao Da both liked to eat pea sprouts, Xia Qing did not use Yi Stone to protect the pea field.

Because these more than 100 pea seedlings are only stable for two generations and the value of the stones used to protect them is high, Xia Qing needs better quality pea seeds.

Xia Qing asked Kuang Qingwei, Zhong Tao and Zheng Kui to help her find it. Now she has heard that Huijiu Base has pea seeds with four generations of stability. Kuang Qingwei has already made arrangements with the middlemen there. When the peas from Huijiu are ripe, he will purchase a batch and ship them over to sell at Huisan.
