Chapter 29 29. Rain
Looking at Huangdou by the fire for a while, Huaiyu suffered for a long time before finally suppressing the desire to eat.
We can’t continue like this!
So she stood up, estimated that she had received enough water, put on her raincoat and rain boots, and went outside to bring back the buckets, pots, and kettles.
The bucket was full of water. Huaiyu counted ten more water purification tablets and put them in, staring at them for a while.
I don’t know why, but it feels dirtier than the water in the pond even though there is obviously no dirt or impurity.
She looked again and saw the purification tablets tumbling in the water, so she didn't pay much attention.
Anyway, it is used for daily cleaning, washing clothes and washing hands, etc., just purify it.
A few more bricks were used to build a stand next to the blue brick fire, and the pot was placed on it.
Huaiyu was not idle when he was boiling water. He took the kettle and washed all the basins he bought.
Wait for the water to boil, boil the new towel for a while, take it out to dry, wring it out, tie it at the four corners, and hang it above the mineral water bucket to act as a filter cloth.
Before, there was no condition. I drank the purified water after boiling it, but there were still suspended solids on it.
Now that I have bought a new towel, I boil the water and sterilize it, then let it warm and then filter it through a cotton ring towel...
In the future, you don’t have to hold back the disgust when you drink water!
Hey, I forgot to buy gauze today! Otherwise, filtered water would be useful.
She went to look at the peanuts again. In fact, peanut shells can be made into carbon by roasting them in a pot over fire. That is the best filter!
How about...eat the peanuts first?
The warm tree house, the sound of rain, the quiet time, and the stable life.
All of this has amplified Huaiyu's desire for food. Now staring at his seed bank, he just wants to bury even the yam eggs in the soil.
When cooked, take it out and gently peel off the thin skin, dip it in sugar...
Ugh...this is still an iron yam!
But you can’t plant that much land yourself, right? With her frail body, she doesn't look like someone who would do this kind of farm work!
In this case, it doesn’t matter if there are fewer seeds. The mountains are my home!
But...this pile of yam beans weighs about two kilograms. You only need to plant a piece of land as big as a palm, and then when you harvest it, you should be able to harvest about one hundred kilograms!
The same goes for peanuts, which can produce a thousand kilograms per mu. Isn’t it a pity to eat them?
There were only soybeans... which looked a bit ordinary and had a lot of impurities. Huaiyu plated them in his hands for a while. The feel was different from that of jujubes, and was more relaxed.
Vaguely, she felt that her ability should have been used, but it was much easier than before to encourage the wisteria to take root and grow.
So...
She opened her palms and looked at them. After doing so much farm work, her palms were red, swollen, painful and blistered during the day, and they would recover at night.
The needs of growth-promoting plants are different, and my own feelings of fatigue are also different...
So... when can efficiency be improved?
For example, if you meet a bad person and throw the seed on someone else, it will instantly cause it to take root, penetrate into the blood vessels, and absorb nutrients...
It is best to do it in ten seconds or less. Complete it all. Otherwise, this ability will be useless, and you might be killed before the seeds grow up.
She imagined that cool scene. At this moment, she held a seed and frowned and tried her best, and the other seed quickly took root and sprouted——
However, the seed was loaded before it sprouted. It took three to five minutes!
Now the vines are taking root and sprouting in the air in the palm of my hand. However, before they can bloom, Huaiyu is so tired that he throws away his hands first.
She was so tired that she didn’t want to move at all. She couldn’t rely on this to protect herself.
Hey, it’s really weak.
The world is so bad that girls like her need to mutate or evolve to protect themselves.
Hmph!
Huaiyu had completely given up the idea of eating. He threw the soybean seeds into the basin and poured some warm water into them, intending to soak them first.
Qingming Festival will be in early April. Now in mid-March, she has some ability, so it should be no problem to plant it in advance——
Wait!
Huaiyu suddenly turned around and saw that outside the opened door curtain, the heavy rain was pouring without stopping.
She was stunned for a moment, and then she was surprised and frustrated:
"God's will!" The beans have been soaked and cannot be stored anymore. It is raining so heavily outside that they cannot be planted.
I had to find a way to eat it so that it would not be wasted.
She simply threw away all the burdens, brought the soybeans in the basin in front of herself, and tried to pick out the bad ones.
I didn’t pay much attention when I used the power disk just now. Now when I rummaged around, I found two black and moldy ones that I had to throw away.
I was about to fish out the soybeans when I suddenly heard the sound of sirens outside——
[The mutation value in Area 29 of Rose Corridor increased rapidly]
[The mutation value in Area 32 of Rose Corridor increased rapidly]
[Rose Corridor 35...]
[Rose Corridor 42...]
Announcements came one after another, and every zone seemed not to be spared. The alarms in the entire Rose Corridor were screaming at the top of their lungs.
Huaiyu was stunned.
She stood at the door of the tree house, separated by the heavy rain curtain, the romantic flower wall hidden in the dim night was now showing its teeth and claws, and it seemed a little scary.
The sound of vehicles gradually sounded in the distance. The dim car lights did not penetrate too far in the rain, but she could vaguely see the light coming and going in the distance.
After a while, Huaiyu saw a vehicle driving towards him.
She quickly put on her rain boots and raincoat and rushed into the heavy rain.
Before he had gone very far, the vehicle in front quickly drew an arc in front of him.
In the car, Zhou Qian’s face was familiar and stern, and his voice was full of urgency:
“Go back quickly, go back quickly! Don’t stay in the rain. Rain will promote mutation-go back quickly! "
Huaiyu was stunned for a moment, then nodded at him, turned around and ran away.
In the car, Zhou Qian squinted his eyes and could vaguely see what looked like a small house in the direction Huaiyu left.
The rain was too heavy, the sky was dark, and the area where the car lights could shine was limited. He made sure that the other party was fine, and did not find that the other party's house was very close to the Rose Corridor, so he drove away again worriedly.
At the same time, his voice spread from the intercom——
[All alert! No one is allowed to take a step closer to the Rose Corridor. All members of the Sanqingshan defense line retreat fifty meters——]
[The mutation value has increased by five points and is still rising]
[Beware of rain...]
At the same time, another voice came from the intercom:
"Captain Zhou, we will hold a meeting tonight to discuss the protective measures after rain. In addition, The Ministry of Health will issue an announcement tomorrow, prohibiting everyone from going to parks and other places to collect wild vegetables, mushrooms and other edible items in the short term!”
“Experts predict that the mutation value will not reach the critical point, but it will increase significantly! , after these things enter the mouth - forget it."
The other party sighed: "It's so unpalatable, no one can eat it."
Zhou Qian put down the walkie-talkie and couldn't help but cursed again:
"Fuck!"
Others in the car also sighed: "In the past, it was snowfall in winter that increased the mutation value. The Weijun water system is accelerating the thawing and underground river circulation, and it can always be controlled.”
“Who would have thought that the spring rain would start this year, and everyone said that after the Qingming Festival, it would be a good time for planting... ..."
"That's right! As the old saying goes, it's better to sow melons and beans during the Qingming Festival. It's still half a month away, and the mutation value will not be reduced by then..."
"It's okay." Zhou Qian took a deep breath and comforted everyone:
"The root nodules of the mutated leguminous family will actively absorb pollution. This matter was included in the emergency plan from the beginning, so everyone was given one when registering their household registration. The mutation value is 25, so no one should be able to eat it.”
“When the rain stops, we call on everyone to plant beans first. Then the garrison wood system will accelerate the cycle, and it should be restored before June. .”
Coming!
