The prehistoric infrastructure maniac

Chapter 32: Reclamation and Farming

Thousands of miles away from Jiuding Tiecha Mountain, there is a vast wilderness with lush vegetation.

The sudden roar of a dragon seemed to come from beneath the earth, accompanied by an invisible hot breath steaming from the ground. A large number of birds and beasts began to quickly fly away from the bushes.
"This field is quite large, and the power of the earth is quite strong, with plenty of rain, which is more suitable for the growth of corn."

Shi Mo, suspended in mid-air, looked down, feeling the earth fire energy rising from the ground below. Then, he waved his hand after a slight hesitation, and a ray of starlight projected from Jiuding Tiecha Mountain, revealing a black needle with a faint starlight glowing on it.

This black needle is the poison needle magic weapon made by Qin Yuan, the only female demon saint that Shi Mo captured with the Luobao Gold Coin when the four demon saints of the demon clan invaded Jiuding Tiecha Mountain.

Now, this black needle has been refined again by Shi Mo, and a restriction has been set up to seal the poison gas, and it has been named the Ten Thousand Poison Needle.

Looking at the black needle in front of him, Shi Mo had an idea, and flame patterns began to flow on the black needle. Then a large amount of black air seemed to evaporate and turned into a black wind that swept away.

Whoosh. Wherever the whistling black wind passed, the grass and trees in the wilderness that had wilted due to the power of the earth fire suddenly withered in large areas at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"What a poisonous magic weapon!" Even though he had seen the toxicity of the Ten Thousand Poison Needles, Shi Mo still couldn't help but shrink his eyes when he saw the shocking scene of life and death in the wilderness.

As the vitality of the plants in the wilderness was extinguished, the withered plants were soon ignited by the power of the earth fire, and a huge fire spread across the prairie.

At the same time, above the wilderness where flames were rising, some remaining black fog and poisonous gas were evaporated and dissipated by the scorching earth fire.

Soon, the flames slowly died down, and above the charred wilderness, Shi Mo, with a flick of his hand, took out the Northern Xuanyuan Water Control Flag and activated it. Suddenly, the water-attributed energy between heaven and earth converged.
It was visible to the naked eye that dark clouds were gathering in the sky, and then rain began to fall, and the rain full of vitality and vigor watered the wilderness.

After the rain, accompanied by the dull sound of dragon roars, the wilderness was like a rolling earth dragon, the entire wilderness was shaking and undulating, and the hardened soil began to become loose.

"Almost there," Shi Mo's voice reached the ground, and the wilderness quickly returned to normal. Rays of red-gold light surged into the sky, transforming into dragons covered in red-gold scales. Then, they all transformed into human forms and saluted Shi Mo respectfully: "Master!"

Shi Mo waved his hand to signal them to retreat, looked at the fertile land below with satisfaction, and waved his hand again. Suddenly, with the starlight descending from the sky, a large number of corn seeds fell like rain and evenly landed on the loose soil.

Then, Shi Mo once again activated the Northern Xuanyuan Water Control Flag, and suddenly a misty drizzle fell like nectar. After landing, the corn seeds in the soil were nourished, and the water, fire, yin and yang energies blended together, and they took root and sprouted at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In a short moment, the originally barren land has turned into a field full of corn seedlings, looking green and full of vitality.

"Take good care of this corn field, prevent it from being damaged by birds and animals, and remove weeds. However, with the vitality of these acquired spiritual corn plants, ordinary plants will find it difficult to grow in the field."

After giving instructions to the transformed earth core fire dragons, Shi Mo looked at the corn fields below, pondered for a moment, and then dived directly into the ground.

Under the corn field, feeling the surrounding earth vein network, Shi Mo soon made some adjustments to mobilize and strengthen the power of the earth veins in this land, and quietly laid out a restriction formation relying on the earth vein network.

After finishing the cornfield, Shi Mo continued to identify suitable areas around it to reclaim wasteland, trying to plant some spiritual fruit trees and spiritual medicinal herbs suitable for large-scale cultivation. Before he knew it, Shi Mo had created a large number of fields and plantations in the vast area around Jiuding Tiecha Mountain.

With the formation restrictions regulating rainwater and gathering energy, the spiritual fruit trees planted on a large scale by Shi Mo naturally grow faster than the normal ones in the prehistoric world, and their quality is also better.

Thousands of years passed in the blink of an eye. Under the peach mother tree on the top of Babao Peak in Jiuding Tiecha Mountain, on a stone table more than two meters long, various spiritual fruits were placed on jade plates.

Shi Mo, who was sitting on the vertical fork of the peach mother tree, casually summoned some spiritual fruit to eat. He glanced at the red peaches of different sizes on the peach mother tree and couldn't help but smile:

"Peaches, oh peaches! My hard work paid off. I didn't hesitate to offend the demons to set up the Great Zhoutian Star Array to gather the power of the stars, and I also used the Three Lights Divine Water condensed by the Northern Xuanyuan Water Control Flag to nourish you. Finally, I have lived up to my promise and finally borne fruit."

"The peaches are about to ripen. There are three kinds of peaches on one tree. This should correspond to the three thousand peach trees of each kind. Thirty peaches of each kind, a total of ninety peaches is not a small number," Shi Mo pondered.

"Brother Hongyun has been craving for it for a long time. This time, I will bring some and invite him to meet up with Brother Zhenyuan at Wanshou Mountain!"

With this thought, Shi Mo could no longer stay in Jiuding Tiecha Mountain. He picked ten peaches of each kind, and then carefully selected a lot of local specialties harvested from farming over the years. He used the underground network to travel as if delivering goods, and rushed to Wanshou Mountain with the rich gifts.

On Wanshou Mountain, under the lush ginseng fruit tree, it has become like a fruit stall, with all kinds of fruits placed everywhere, and in the open space in the middle are Shi Mo and Zhen Yuanzi.

"Brother Shi Mo, you..." Looking at the many things Shi Mo brought at once, Zhen Yuanzi was also a little stunned.

"Haha. Brother Shi Mo, are you the transformed earth monkey? Why do you like eating fruits so much?" Along with the familiar hearty laughter, the red cloud descended from the sky. Seeing the fruits on the ground, his eyes lit up:
"Tsk tsk, Brother Shi Mo, how many fruit trees have you planted on Jiuding Tiecha Mountain?"

"Not much can be grown on Jiuding Tiecha Mountain, so I cleared the land around it and started planting. Now that I've just harvested the crops, I want to let my two brothers have a taste," Shi Mo said with a smile.

"Oh my! So many spiritual fruits, and some of them I have never seen or eaten!" Hongyun said in amazement:

"However, what I want to taste most is the peaches you mentioned, Brother Shi Mo! By the way, are the peaches from the top of Babao Peak ripe yet?"

Seeing Hongyun's expectant look, Shi Mo smiled slightly and waved his hand, and peaches of different sizes appeared on the side.

"Ah? Really ripe?" Seeing those peaches, Hong Yun's eyes sparkled with surprise. He touched this and looked at that, then frowned slightly and said:
"Hey, buddy, this one looks big and red, so it must be ripe. But this one is so small, you didn't pick it before it was ripe, did you?"

Hongyun said as he picked up a fist-sized peach: "This one looks like it's just starting to turn red!"
