Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 270 Land Administration
Zhang Shuilai nodded, "Fortunately, our base has dug a cellar. If it is still on the ground, many people will freeze to death."

When mentioning people who died of freezing, Qiao Mi paused slightly, and she turned to look at Zhang Shuilai, "Oh no, we forgot about those who got sick and left on the ground."

When Zhang Shui came to hear it, he ran out in a panic, and Qiao Miwei followed. When the two ran to the exit, they found that the door leading to the ground was completely covered by ice. There were four or five people at the door. Xiao Bing was deicing there with a tool. Qiao Miwei walked up to him and took a look. The thickness of the ice layer had almost reached his ankles. "It's so thick, how many days has it been frozen?"

A soldier stopped what he was doing and said, "It was just cold last night. It was also cold before, and there was frost, but it was very thin. We wiped it all out when we got up early."

It turned out that such a thick ice was frozen in one night, wouldn't those people who stayed on the ground be in danger?Even though Qiao Miwei was anxious to go out and have a look, he couldn't be in a hurry anymore. It took nearly an hour before the ice on the key parts of the gate was cleared, and then the gate was pushed open. Qiao Miwei and Zhang Shuilai walked along the road After the sewing was done, Qiao Miwei was almost knocked down by the skating on the soles of her feet as soon as she stepped out. Fortunately, Zhang Shui came to help her, and Qiao Miwei stood on her feet. When she raised her head, she couldn't help falling down. He took a deep breath, "God!"

No wonder she was so surprised. Although she hadn't been outside for a few days, everything outside had become very strange to her. The sun had completely disappeared, and there was no light in the sky or on the ground, but she could still see the endless Ice, the whole world has become a frozen world!
Not only that, Qiao Miwei felt as if a hole had been torn open in the sky, and there were countless gusts of wind howling. Fortunately, the sand layer on the ground was frozen, otherwise the blown sand would make them unable to breathe. She She and Zhang Shuilai helped each other to the patient's residence, and found that the door here was also frozen. She lay on the door and listened to the sound. It was quiet inside, only the strong wind ravaged their ears uninterruptedly, Qiao Mi Wei Wei raised her hand and patted the door, "Open the door! Are you all right?"

Zhang Shuilai also came up to help call the door, but unfortunately they didn't hear a response from inside after filming for a long time. Both of them had a bad feeling, Zhang Shuilai said, "Sister Qiao, step back a little, I'll kick the door open."

Qiao Mi nodded slightly, stepped sideways, and let Zhang Shui kick the door. This house was built very solidly, including the two door panels, which were made of steel bars. In addition, it was not easy to break through the door because of the ice wrapped around it. Zhang Shuilai kicked on the door, and the door panel was closed tightly. Fortunately, the ice layer outside had cracked due to the vibration, but the room was still quiet due to such a loud sound, and Qiao Miwei became more and more sure that the people inside might be afraid. Already more ominous than ominous.

When the ice attached to the door panel fell off, the door moved. Qiao Miwei stepped forward to help Zhang Shuilai push the door together. The door creaked open, and a cold and corrupt smell rushed out from the shop, choking Qiao Miwei. Taking two steps back, Qiao Miwei couldn't hold back his breath when he looked in again. There were still sporadic sparks in the middle of the raised fire on the ground in the room.

Zhang Shuilai pushed Qiao Miwei out of the door, stepped in by himself, then involuntarily covered his mouth and nose, looked at the lying people in the room, and said when he came out, "They are all dead. "

Qiao Miwei felt sad when he heard this, "It's all our fault, we ignored them!"

Zhang Shuilai shook his head, "No, there was coal in the fire on the ground, but it was not lit, and it was covered with such thick wood and damp leaves. When I went in just now, I asked about the strong smell of coal smoke. They should have lit the fire. Come on, I'm poisoned by soot, it's too cold outside, and all the windows in the house are shut tightly."

Qiao Mi was slightly stunned, could it be that they were poisoned by soot? "But there are also a few rural people here."

Zhang Shuilai is not clear either, but everything in the house is too obvious, and there is still the soot smell that has not dissipated until now. people.

Qiao Mi was stunned for a while, then sighed, "Anyway, they are all from our base, we can't let their bodies just be thrown away, let's go back to the firewood and cremate them."

Zhang Shuilai nodded, and the two of them worked together to lift a few corpses in the house to the wooden bed that had been set up at the door. Zhang Shuilai poured some oil on these people, then lit a match and threw them in. Mars predicted that the oil would catch fire, and the two watched the flames engulf several people bit by bit. Qiao Miwei thought for a while and then went into the house and threw in the clothes they left behind. The fire burned for a long time, and waited until the fire was completely extinguished. Afterwards, many charred bodies were left on the spot. Zhang Shuilai went back and asked several people to bring tools and dig a big hole next to the house, and buried these charred bodies.

Qiao Miwei sighed beside him, "If it wasn't for the fear of getting infected by germs, I would just bury it and see what it's like now."

After going back, Qiao Miwei was in a bad mood. The weather outside changed too fast. Although there were no casualties in the base, if this situation continues, not only everyone's life will become more and more difficult, but the vegetables that are about to mature will also be affected.

A few days later, people found clusters of black hard things growing under the frozen layer outside, and they also had a very terrifying growth rate. Some curious people wanted to dig some research, but they only found out the nature of this substance after they tried it. The hard Chengdu is beyond imagination, and it is impossible to dig them out without tools, and the part of this substance buried in the ground is very long. Only then can people be sure that this strange substance is a plant, and the root system underneath is very Well-developed, with an average length of thirty to forty centimeters, covered with a hard outer shell, but after peeling off the outer shell, the milky white fibers inside are exposed, exuding a fragrance.

When Qin Yulin heard about it, he mobilized the masters in the canteen to dig this plant outside, then pulled out the well-developed roots, and then began to test the poison. After a week of experiments, this plant was non-toxic, and according to the experiments of the rabbits Judging from the reaction, I am afraid that the taste of these plants should be good. Those chefs are excited. If they really invent a practical method for this plant, it will be a great thing for the base. Then the experiment of frying and frying began. , and then people were pleasantly surprised to find that whether it is stewed, fried or even eaten raw, this strange plant tastes very good. It seems that the sky is suitable for birds and the bottom of the sea is suitable for fish. What kind of environment will breed what kind of plant? Such creatures, and because there is no sun now, it means that these are not that kind of mutated plants.

Recently, the recipes in both the large canteen and the small private restaurant at the base have changed. The plant named Jishu has come into everyone's sight and has become a popular dish.

Qiao Miwei has led the farming team to propagate this plant on a large scale. They do not need sunlight and have low temperature requirements. They are very suitable for cultivation in the cellar. Qiao Miwei came over every day to check the progress of the seedlings of the land department. When he learned that the cultivation of the land department was not satisfactory, Qiao Miwei asked, "Is there something wrong? Or is the temperature in our cellar too high?"

Li Rui snorted, "Sand! The land outside is all sand, not ours."

"Yes." Another person shouted, "That's the thing, it's the same as I used to grow watermelons, it must be sandy land, if it was not easy to get some sandy soil in the past, but now it's all this kind of land outside, come on, let's Go get some sand."

The members of the farmer protection team are very motivated to work, and they do what they say. In a few days, all the houses of the breeding grounds have been covered with thick sandy soil. As they grow taller, their exposed parts on the ground are pointed and thin, with hard thorns growing on them. Many of them have grown to a high level after a long time, and the roots dug out like that will be bigger, but Just like many plants, the water in the roots becomes very small after they grow to this size, and the taste and taste will be much worse. However, at this time, what people are looking for is to fill their stomachs. It is not harsh, so people who go out to dig land now know that they are looking for those tall and strong diggers.

And recently, people found that many blue plants appeared around the land department. These plants basically only grow four or five leaves, short and short, and appear in patches. People think that new food has appeared again. These blue plants are indeed non-toxic, but what disappoints people is that even if the plants are non-toxic, their taste is too weird, and few people can eat them in their stomachs, but the only advantage is that humans I don't like to eat it, but poultry like it very much, and the reproduction speed of this plant is faster than that of the land department, which just provides fresh food for poultry.

Qin Zhiyuan has been recuperating for such a long time, and his body has basically recovered. Recently, he has been busy with the affairs of the base. His return has completely liberated Qiao Miwei. Only now does she have time to rest in the Taoyuan.

Everything in Taoyuan is very orderly, the only difference is the black sky exposed in the crack in the sky, fortunately, this color has no big impact on everything in Taoyuan, it just prolongs the time for crops to mature, and now the incident has entered ten In September, the corn in Taoyuan only grows corn cobs, and the big ones are as long as a woman's palm. The growth rate of plants in Taoyuan is slowed down, let alone the crops outside, and now the temperature outside has dropped sharply. Not sure how much those indoor veggies ended up harvesting.
