The Great Flood of the End of Time: Female Neighbor Comes to Borrow Food

Chapter 271 Extracting Mutated Sunflower Again

"Let's go back first."

Liang Yuan put away the feather and quickly went back with Tu Long.

Hai Chao has two days, he cannot waste time, he must take advantage of these two days to harvest the mutant fish.

Now that I know where these mutated birds and beasts have gone, I will always have time to explore them.

It is impossible to enter the cloud layer at the moment, as the thunder that may appear at any time is too powerful.

His own spirit turtle shield couldn't even hold out for a second. He certainly couldn't withstand it relying on his own body alone. He couldn't take any risks for the time being.

After returning to the shelter, Liang Yuan looked around and found that the beast tide was indeed unable to break through the current shelter. Many mutant beasts would even deliberately avoid the fire bamboo forest.

Liang Yuan was completely relieved and immediately began to concentrate on harvesting the mutant fish that were swept ashore by the waves.

In two days, Liang Yuan earned nearly 200,000 points!
At this point, the tide ended, and some finishing work was done by the people in the shelter running out to catch the mutant fish that were missed.

Liang Yuan returned to the bamboo building and was somewhat dissatisfied with his harvest.

"Last time I was able to earn as many as 360,000 points, but this time I only got 200,000 points."

Liang Yuan sighed, but he knew that this was normal.

Last time he killed a lot of red meat that came out of the mountains and forests, so he had more than 100,000 points.

However, there were far fewer mutant beasts in the forest this time than last time, and Liang Yuan did not dare to continue killing these mutant beasts, fearing that if all the mutant beasts on Yangshan were killed, he would not be able to provide mutant beasts to the breeding base in the future.

These past two days, he had been concentrating on killing the mutant beasts in the sea, and even went deep into the nearby diving area to hunt mutant fish.

Only in this way can we accumulate 200,000 points.

"It's okay. Two hundred thousand is not a small amount. I'll keep it for now. Maybe in just five months, I can save up one million points."

"It's only five months. You can wait. Don't worry."

Liang Yuan took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

I have my own lottery system, and I will be able to get a million points sooner or later, so there is no need to rush.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk."

There was a knock on the door and Liang Yuan came to his senses.

"Brother Liang, my brother is here."

Liang Yuan opened the door and saw Dong Yan standing outside.

Liang Yuan walked out with a smile and said, "Is Xiaojie here?"

Dong Jie in the living room hurriedly said: "Brother Liang, my sister said you were looking for me."

"Yes, there is something I want you to help me look at. Sit down and talk."

Dong Jie was puzzled: "Show it to me? Is it an electronic product?"

"No."

Liang Yuan took out the huge feather from the storage bag and placed it on the ground.

The feathers, which were more than three meters long, were almost covering the entire sofa and carpet.

Liang Yuan said: "Help me see if this thing can conduct electricity."

Hearing this, Dong Jie squatted down and tapped the feathers. He heard a banging sound and said, "Is it made of iron? It's so hard."

"It's not iron. It's the feathers of some mutant bird."

"feather?"

Dong Jie and Dong Yan were both shocked and looked at the feather in shock.

Dong Yan couldn't help but ask, "What kind of bird is this? Its feathers are actually more than three meters long?"

Liang Yuan shook his head: "I don't know what species it is, but it must be a mutation."

Dong Jie had already gotten the hang of it by now. He stretched out his fingers and pressed on the feather.

As he activated his supernatural powers, lightning seemed to flash in his eyes.

Then, sparks popped up from his fingertips.

The arcs of electricity bounced on the feathers.

I saw the feather trembling slightly, and the hair that was like a Venetian blind was shaking slowly. Not only did the whole feather not get burnt, but the dark green hair became more shiny and bright!
It seemed as if the electric arc not only did not cause any damage to the feather, but instead charged it with energy!
Dong Jie quickly retracted his finger and said in amazement: "Brother Liang, this thing can not only conduct electricity, but it can also absorb electricity!"

"I've never seen anything like this material before. These hairs are like natural wires. The damping is almost zero."

"I can feel that my electrical energy is flowing smoothly in here, with almost no stagnation."

Liang Yuan couldn't help but be shocked. He thought this thing was not conductive, so those strange birds were not afraid of lightning in the clouds.

However, Dong Jie's words surprised him. This thing not only conducts electricity, but also has excellent conductivity and almost no impedance!
Liang Yuan's eyes flickered, and he thought to himself, "Could it be that these strange birds' feathers are very conductive, so even if the lightning hits them, they can still conduct it smoothly?"

"But how did they manage to remain unscathed?"

Liang Yuan was silent. Could it be that their bodies were like wires, with the electric current passing through their bodies and directing to other places?

But as wires themselves, they are not affected at all?
This was a method Liang Yuan had never imagined.

If that's the case, how can I get through the thick clouds and withstand the attack of lightning?
"No wonder the military hasn't sent out any planes yet."

"Not to mention how dangerous it is to have a lot of thunder in the clouds, these strange birds hide in the clouds and can also attack aircraft."

"It is almost impossible for flying equipment to move, and we don't know if the thunder will interfere with the magnetic field. We don't know if the plane will be able to operate once it enters the cloud."

"Logically, even if the planes can't work, submarines and warships can still work. Why haven't we seen these things go inland to rescue?"

"Is it because at the beginning of the flood, the water level was not high enough for the warships to enter? Or is it because there are too many houses and the warships cannot enter the city?"

Liang Yuan's thoughts were turning. These strange birds and mutant beasts made him very curious about the world above the clouds.

However, with his current strength, it seems that he is not enough to break through the clouds and go to the top of the cloud to take a look.

I just don’t know if the military has made any discoveries.

Liang Yuan always felt that if the military was still able to function, there should be no way for it to go deep into the clouds to find out what was going on.

Unless there are greater dangerous obstacles in the clouds!

"Brother Liang, is this thing easy to get? Maybe we can weld it together and make it into wires, so that every household can have electricity."

Dong Jie interrupted Liang Yuan's thoughts and said excitedly.

Liang Yuan heard this and smiled: "This thing has such good conductivity, but without a skin, won't it leak electricity easily?"

Dong Jie scratched his head, thought for a while, and suddenly said: "I have an idea. We can soak the hair on these feathers in sea cucumber glue and let it be covered with sea cucumber glue, so that its surface can be insulated."

"I have tried it before. The 220V voltage used in household electricity cannot conduct electricity in sea cucumber gelatin. There is no risk of leakage."

Liang Yuan laughed and said, "I didn't expect you to have studied it. Then go back and try it. If it works, I'll try to get more."

"Okay, I'll try it when I get back. These hairs can not only be used to make wires, I think they can also replace some broken electronic equipment." Dong Jie said excitedly.

Liang Yuan laughed. Everyone in the shelter was working hard.

Although Xiao Dongjie's ability to generate electricity was not used in combat, he was ingenious and used this ability on electrical appliances, which is also a good direction.

Besides, it seems that this is the direction he is interested in.

Interest is the best teacher.

After chatting for a few more words, Liang Yuan asked Dong Jie to carry the feather back.

"When the next tide comes, we can catch a few more mutant birds."

He estimated that with his current strength, it should be no problem to kill the group of strange birds.

After seeing Dong Jie off, Dong Yan went to the shopping mall to help.

There are a lot of things going on in the shelter right now, and basically no one is idle.

In the huge room, Liang Yuan was the only one left for a moment.

Liang Yuan looked at the heavy rain outside and thought about the future development of the shelter.

After a while, Song Wen was seen rushing back home, looking a little anxious.

Seeing this, Liang Yuan asked with concern: "Wenwen, what happened? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Song Wen said anxiously: "Aunt Li suddenly fainted. I went to find Doctor Yang, but he seemed to have taken Tang Ying out to find some herbs."

Liang Yuan looked serious when he heard this, and asked quickly, "Why did you faint? Are you still conscious?"

"Yes, I saw Aunt Li in the morning. She was not in good spirits and her face looked strange. She kept sneezing. I guess she was cold."

"The temperature has dropped in the past few days. I guess she didn't keep warm and got caught in the rain."

"Let's not talk about this anymore. I'll go to the room and see if there's any cold medicine or something."

Liang Yuan's expression darkened when he heard this. The cold wave seemed to be arriving at an accelerated pace.

"Don't look for it anymore. I have it here. I'll go with you to take a look."

Liang Yuan and Song Wen immediately rushed to the plantation.

The entire plantation is covered with plastic greenhouses, so the temperature is relatively high.

Song Wen's mutant sunflower was in the center, illuminating the entire greenhouse.

All kinds of green vegetables are growing vigorously in the greenhouse, but there is a stench of manure that is unbearable.

Many old men and women were there. They wore scarves, covered their mouths and noses, and were weeding and catching insects in the fields.

There was a bamboo building in the distance, which was the dormitory for the plantation’s employees. Aunt Li was lying in one of the dormitories.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw Lao Ma sitting next to Aunt Li with an anxious look on his face, holding Aunt Li's hand and constantly calling "Lao Li".

Seeing this, Liang Yuan asked, "Old Ma, how is Aunt Li?" Ma Guocai's eyes were red, and he said, "She was able to speak just now, but now she has fallen into a coma. No matter how I called her, she wouldn't wake up."

Song Wen quickly said, "Let me take a look."

Ma Guocai quickly moved aside to let Song Wen come over.

Song Wen stretched out her hand and pressed it on Aunt Li's forehead. A ball of green light burst out from her fingertips and slowly penetrated into Aunt Li's temple.

Aunt Li's pale face became visibly redder, and her breathing seemed to have become much smoother.

Song Wen touched Aunt Li's forehead and said worriedly, "It's still hot. I'll give Aunt Li some antipyretic medicine first."

Liang Yuan handed a box of antipyretic medicine to Song Wen, who crushed it and fed it to Aunt Li.

Aunt Li was sleeping soundly and seemed to be feeling much better.

Liang Yuan looked at Ma Guocai and asked, "Old Ma, why did Aunt Li catch a cold? Did she get caught in the rain?"

Ma Guocai shook his head: "She didn't get wet in the rain. She has diabetes and a weak constitution. She pays close attention to keeping warm. When she goes out, she not only carries an umbrella, but also wears a raincoat."

"Then how did you catch a cold?" Liang Yuan asked.

Ma Guocai sighed, "The weather is getting colder, and your Aunt Li already has diabetes, her immunity has always been poor, and she has to pay attention to her diet, and she doesn't eat well."

"It was raining today, the air was too humid, and the house was damp. It was normal to get cold and damp."

Liang Yuan couldn't help but frown and asked, "Will there be a tide in your house?"

"Yes, that stone wall will definitely get damp. It's also my fault. I've been talking about renovating it and installing wooden boards, but I never had the time to do it." Lao Ma said in annoyance.

Liang Yuan thought for a moment and asked, "Do people living in wooden houses and bamboo buildings also have this problem?"

"Yes, we are living in a cave, which is actually quite good. Living in a wooden house or bamboo building outside actually has more problems. After all, there are gaps in the wood, and it is easy for water to seep in."

"If you have the conditions, you will buy some sea cucumber glue to patch the cracks in the wall. If you don't have the conditions, you can use a few more layers of thin wooden boards to block the wind."

"It's okay now, but when it gets colder, it will be more difficult."

Liang Yuan couldn't help but frown when he heard this. Sea cucumber glue is a relatively scarce material. It has always been used as a construction adhesive and other aspects with very good results.

Liang Yuan had already informed the slaughterhouse that any sea cucumbers caught were not to be killed but to be kept alive for the collection of sea cucumber glue.

But even so, sea cucumber glue is still in short supply, so when people build houses, very few can actually use sea cucumber glue.

"It's mainly because it rained for so long and the air is too humid. In fact, many people's clothes can't dry. They have to cover them up to dry them every day."

"The weather was hot before and we didn't take it seriously. Now it's getting colder. If we keep wearing these wet clothes, we're bound to catch a cold, right?" Old Ma sighed.

Liang Yuan has a dryer at home, so he doesn't have this problem.

Other people's homes don't have electricity, let alone dryers or washing machines, so many people's clothes are left half-dry for a long time.

Now that the weather is getting colder, you may catch a cold.

Liang Yuan pondered and decided that this matter really needed to be resolved.

Song Wen asked at this time: "Brother Liang, where did you get that mutant sunflower?"

"What's wrong?" Liang Yuan looked at her.

Song Wen said: "In fact, the mutant sunflower is very powerful. The light and heat it produces are not low. It can not only provide lighting, but also provide a certain amount of heat."

"I've seen many botanical garden employees bring damp clothes from home to the greenhouse to dry."

"If you get closer to that sunflower, it will be dried in half a day."

"It would be great if there were more mutant sunflowers. Maybe we could plant one in every house. That way, it would not only be like having electric lighting, but it would also provide a heat source to dry clothes and maintain room temperature."

When Liang Yuan heard this, his heart moved slightly.

He actually won the mutant sunflower by accident in a lottery. He never thought that it would be so useful.

Right now, my points are more than 200,000, so I can draw more mutant sunflower seeds.

Not to mention one for every family, it would be no problem to just create a sunflower base.

"I'll find a way." Liang Yuan said immediately.

Song Wen nodded, without asking Liang Yuan what solution he had in mind, and trusted him unconditionally.

Liang Yuan stayed here for a while, then left the plantation and returned to his cave home.

He walked into the living room, looked at the sunflowers in the landscape pond, and carefully examined the surrounding floor and walls.

Sure enough, no moisture stains or mold were found around the sunflowers.

When I touched the floor, I could still feel the warmth from the sun.

A mutant sunflower can really greatly improve the air humidity in the home.

This is equivalent to a little sun in the family.

Liang Yuan sat down immediately and opened the system directly.

He glanced at his current points, a total of 231342 points.

"System, extract mutant sunflower seeds in a targeted manner."

"Ding, the mutant sunflower is a mutant plant, and targeted extraction requires one thousand points."

Liang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. He remembered that when he first drew the mutant sunflower, it seemed to be from the 50-point lottery plate.

It was difficult to obtain points at that time, so he would study for a long time every time.

But later he gradually discovered that there was actually a certain chance of refreshing mutant plants when the lottery disc was above 50 points.

However, the probability of winning varies. The higher the points on the lottery plate, the higher the probability of winning a mutant plant.

However, it takes one thousand points to draw sunflower seeds in a targeted manner, which makes Liang Yuan a bit at a disadvantage.

Because the attribute points extracted initially were only a thousand points.

"Take a shot first and see how it goes."

"Extract!"

Liang Yuan spent a thousand points, and suddenly the lottery plate flashed, and a seed appeared.

Liang Yuan was stunned, and immediately couldn't help showing his anger: "Damn, why is there only one?"

You know, the last time he drew the lottery, he got 20 of these mutant sunflower seeds!

Although the survival rate was not high, only 20%, they eventually grew out and two survived.

Liang Yuan quickly checked the sunflower seed.

【Mutated sunflower seeds (fine product)】

Description: Grows Sunflowers that generate sunlight.

Quantity: 1
Survival rate: 100%
Planting environment: Where there is soil

Liang Yuan was stunned: "Excellent seeds? A 100% survival rate?"

He immediately realized the difference. It seemed that the mutant sunflower seeds he obtained through the targeted lottery were perfect and high-quality seeds by default of the system, with a 100% survival rate.

This was completely different from the mutant sunflower seeds he had won by chance in the 50-point lottery.

Liang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he didn't lose too much.

At least 100% survival rate.

Liang Yuan also gradually figured out a set of rules. It seems that it is a targeted lottery and can only be drawn in units of 1.

For example, for attribute points, you can only draw 1 point each time.

As for equipment, it is also drawn according to the standard of 1 set.

The mutated sunflowers now also come in units of one.

His eyes flickered, and he suddenly slapped his thigh and cursed inwardly: "Fuck, I'm so stupid. Since it's a directional lottery, why do we have to draw seeds? Wouldn't it be better to just draw sunflowers?"

Liang Yuan thought of this and quickly modified the modifiers of the targeted lottery.

"System, extract mutant sunflowers in a targeted manner."

"Ding, you need to consume 1000 points to extract the mutant sunflower. Do you want to extract it?"

As expected, the price for buying seeds and buying the plant itself is the same!

Fortunately, I only drew one, so the loss was not too big.

So next, Liang Yuan directly extracted the mutant sunflower.

【Mutated Sunflower】

Description: A sunflower that produces sunlight.

Quantity: 1
Survival rate: 100%
Planting environment: Where there is soil

Fruit: Sunflower seeds
The properties of the mutant sunflower made Liang Yuan's eyes light up.

“It actually produces fruit!”

"Is this considered a mutant fruit?"

Liang Yuan immediately became excited. If a large number of melon seeds could be produced, the shelter would have one more food.

By the way, sunflower seeds can also be used to extract oil!
The key is that sunflower seeds are not only fruits, but also seeds!

Doesn't this mean that as long as we plant a batch of these sunflowers, we will have an endless supply of sunflowers to plant in the future?

Liang Yuan was overjoyed, his eyes lit up!
"We will first select 100 sunflowers and expand a sunflower base. When these sunflowers are mature, we will start the next round of sowing. We will then find a way to give each family in the shelter a sunflower."
