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

On the way back from the third day of the special training, Yanlong drove Xia Qing's "broken" car into Territory No. 3. Exhausted, Xia Qing asked Boss Yang to carry her back to the house, where she fell asleep on the sofa in the living room without changing her clothes or eating dinner.

The next morning, when Xia Qing opened her eyes, she saw half a cucumber in front of her. No need to ask, this was specially left for her by Boss Yang because he saw that she couldn't get up to eat.

Now Xia Qing and Sheep Boss have become partners who trust each other, so she will not be awakened by Sheep Boss walking around, and even the sound of Sheep Boss's hooves will make her feel more at ease and sleep more soundly. This is also the reason why Xia Qing did not wake up when Sheep Boss went to pick cucumbers, ate half and left the other half for her.

Why half a cucumber? Because every time Xia Qing was tired from working in the fields, she would pick a cucumber to quench her thirst, half for her and half for the eldest brother. So it was normal for the eldest brother to leave half for her.

Xia Qing took the cucumber to the kitchen, washed it, and then went upstairs to take off her protective suit and take a shower.

During these three days, she learned how to defeat crocodiles without weapons and how to survive in rapids. The bruises and sore muscles on her body were all proof of her growth.

Unfortunately, there were no pythons of the right size in the nearby evolution forest, so she didn't see how Yanlong fought with the python. In recent years, Xia Qing had no chance to see it.

Because Yanlong's bodyguard mission in Territory No. 7 will end at the end of the year, and this is her last time to train Xia Qing and Tan Qi. At the end of the year, she will return to Huiyi Base to perform other tasks.

Although she didn't say it, Xia Qing believed that her next battlefield should be near the water, because Yanlong was obviously looking forward to it when he mentioned the next mission.

In the lake, in the rapids, Yanlong's eyes would sparkle with a light that was not usually there. She liked water, liked fighting in water, and the missions that made her look forward to it should be near water.

Xia Qing shook off the water on her short hair, stretched out her sore arms and grabbed a towel to wipe the water off her body.

Yanlong likes water, so this is not her home. But Xia Qing likes this place, it is her territory, her home, and the place she tries desperately to protect.

After changing clothes, Xia Qing started to wash rice again, adding unpolluted spring water and cooking rice porridge over a slow fire.

It’s not that she loves rice porridge so much, but because rice is the largest content among the green light food in her stock.

At the beginning of last winter, Xia Qing exchanged 400 kilograms of BS-4.3 green-light rice with a harmful element content of 6‰ with Yang Jin. In the past six months, in order to regulate her body, reduce the harmful element content in her body and increase the beneficial element content, Xia Qing has tried to eat green-light food as much as possible. Rice, which has the largest inventory, is of course her preferred staple food.

Because she is an advanced evolver, her appetite is much larger than that of ordinary people. She has eaten more than 310 kilograms of rice in more than five months, and now she has more than 80 kilograms left.

After the remaining rice is eaten, her green light wheat, green light mung beans, green light corn, green light soybeans, green light sweet potatoes and other crops will mature one after another, and her staple food options will become more abundant.

If you want to have a good harvest, you still have to rely on the weather. If you want to harvest these crops smoothly, first of all, there must be no extreme natural disasters such as hail, hurricanes, and insect swarms in the coming period, and secondly, the second rain in half a month will not be too severe.

Humans cannot prevent natural disasters from happening, they can only make adequate preparations and actively deal with them. In the next half month, Xia Qing's main task is to manage farmland, reinforce greenhouses and greenhouses, and minimize the losses when natural disasters strike.

After feeding the chickens, she just walked out of the deserted village and met the sheep boss who was holding a small basket to catch insects. She immediately greeted him enthusiastically, "Boss, good morning, thank you for the cucumbers you picked for me last night."

Seeing his younger brother become lively again, the sheep boss put the small basket with several dead insects on the ground and turned to eat grass. "Okay, leave it to me, boss, take a rest." Xia Qing picked up the small basket very naturally, catching insects while patrolling the territory.

Locusts, crickets, cabbage worms, caterpillars, centipedes, snakes... Xia Qing caught whatever he saw.

When patrolling at the edge of the reservoir, Xia Qing poured a small portion of the worms into the iron cages containing big fish in the reservoir to feed the ten green and yellow light big fish transferred from the water tank to the reservoir. He opened the net covering the fish pond and poured a large portion of the worms into the pond to feed the small fish fry.

The small fish fry grew very fast after hatching, and the big ones were already two centimeters long. When the worms were poured in, the small fish fry immediately gathered around and bit the worms. The water surface was covered with ripples due to the movements of the small fish.

Because there were always water birds such as egrets, night herons, spot-billed ducks, as well as snakes such as water snakes and grass snakes, which would take advantage of Xia Qing's inattention to come to the fish pond and eat her precious fish fry, Xia Qing had to cover the entire pond with a fishing net to prevent the birds.

This fishing net was exchanged by Xia Qing from Territory No. 10. Territory No. 10 also dug a fish pond and they also faced this problem. Xia Qing heard Shi's mother say that Shi Zhong wove a fishing net at the alliance meeting, so he asked him to weave another one.

If we can prevent water birds, the loss of fish fry can be reduced a lot.

In order to protect the fish fry from the heavy rain, Xia Qing decided to use two methods.

The first is the method of Territory No. 5, which is to raise the dam around the fish pond to prevent the water formed on the ground from flowing into the fish pond during the rainstorm. The second is to drive the fry into the small fish pond with a fishing net one day before the rainstorm, and then cover the small fish pond with a rainproof cloth. This can prevent the fry from falling into or flowing into the fish pond due to the rainstorm, which will increase the content of toxic elements in the pond water and reduce the quality of the fry.

The risk of doing this is that if the wind is strong enough during the rain, the tarpaulin will be blown over, causing the rainwater to fall into the fish pond.

Therefore, Xia Qing has another method. When using a fishing net to drive fish, he would catch some fry and temporarily keep them in a water tank. After the rain, when the content of toxic elements in the atmosphere and water returned to normal, he would put the fry back into the pond and let them continue to grow.

The allies thought Xia Qing's method was good and decided to adopt two methods to spread the risk. Moreover, in order to further improve safety, they wanted to put the water tank in a hidden valley to directly block the harmful elements during the rainy season.

Xia Qing followed suit and moved some of the fry to the hidden valley like everyone else. This way, she no longer had to use a small piece of Yi stone to protect the fry in the water tank.

After feeding the fish, Xia Qing continued to carry the small basket and inspect the hillside. When passing by the terraced fields where green light rice was planted, Xia Qing looked at the five BS-6 green light rice seedlings in the rice fields through the insect-proof net and sighed.

These five rice seedlings were planted from unhusked rice seeds that she picked out from 6 kilograms of green light rice. Because the BS- green light rice from the Baisan base tasted great, Xia Qing was full of expectations for these five rice seedlings.

However, these five rice seedlings may not have adapted to the local climate and soil. Not only did their growth fail to match that of the J-2 rice seedlings cultivated in Territory No. 0.3, but their toxic element content also increased by 4.6 points to ‰.

According to this growth trend, even if these five BS-6 rice plants can bloom, set seeds and mature successfully, their quality will be downgraded from green to yellow.

This is the effect of planting in high-yi elemental soil. If it is changed to ordinary soil, the effect will be worse.

This is really a huge blow to the enthusiasm of farmers. (End of this chapter)
