Chapter 264 Entering the Secret Realm of Zijing
On the highway entering Zijing City from south to north, there is a toll station outside the old Sixth Ring Road to collect city fees and to verify identity. Awakened people and ordinary people can enter. , after paying the money, you will get two large paper maps of Zijing City and Zijing Secret Land Map.
The urban map details various danger zones, official service stations, commercial streets and other areas. The secret map marks the location of the small town behind. In addition, I sign a life and death certificate. I voluntarily enter the purple In the capital city, one is responsible for life and death.
Ye Nai paid money to enter the city and drove slowly eastward along the Sixth Ring Road around the city.
Open the car window, and a large number of spores fly out with the wind. So what about the twenty-five danger zones, they are just rich food for the growth of spores and mycelium.
According to the map, the infrastructure near the Sixth Ring Road is still OK. Official organizations, military camps and service companies are all built along this road. There are military police and teams or individuals who have taken over the task to clean this road every day. , to prevent mutated animals and plants from emerging to harm humans.
The further you go toward the center, the worse the infrastructure becomes, with only basic street lights and communication networks guaranteed.
Starting from the fifth ring to the first ring, they are all dangerous areas. The central ring is the secret realm that towers over the sky.
In the gaps between dangerous areas, there are official service stations and commercial streets formed spontaneously by the people. If you miss a service station or commercial street where you can eat and sleep, you have to walk several kilometers to see it. On to the next one.
Ye Nai saw the first service station, parked the car on the roadside, went in and packed a fast food to eat in the car. It cost 50 yuan for three meat dishes, two vegetarian dishes and two bowls of rice. The meat was a strange beast. Meat is cheap, vegetables and rice are expensive, because growing vegetables, grains and spices requires land, and the meat of exotic animals is the easiest to obtain.
There was plenty of meat and only a few vegetables. Fortunately, there was also a lot of broth. Ye Nai mixed rice with broth and swallowed it hard, but what she was thinking about was that she must go back to the secret realm to produce a batch of vegetables when she had time.
After eating and drinking, we continued on the road. After driving on and off for a day, we entered the Fifth Ring Road.
The street environment immediately became bad. In addition to a road that is cleaned every day, there are danger zones on both sides. The familiar stench fills the nose. Large garbage trucks and tired garbage haulers can be seen on the street at any time. .
Ye Nai drove until dark and didn’t even see the service station. He simply turned off the car lights and drove carefully to a blind corner. He and the car entered the secret place of Dongling to rest and did it before going to bed. Hours of farm work.
The next day, Ye Nai returned to the road before dawn in Zijing City and drove towards the secret realm for a whole day. There were traffic jams from time to time along the way. The streets were too narrow and there were too many people and vehicles. Traffic jams have become the norm.
Entering the first ring is the outskirts of Town No. 1. Under the heavy shadow on the back of the secret realm is the Grand Palace, which is unknown whether it is intact or not. Ye Nai glanced at it as he drove by, then turned the steering wheel and followed the traffic, making a circle and slowly approaching the secret realm. Entrance.
Before entering the secret realm, I sent a message to my brothers and sisters group, telling them that I had entered the secret realm of Zijing, and that my return date was uncertain. Please leave a message if you have anything to do.
The Zijing Secret Realm is half forest and half desert. It is a transitional terrain from a humid zone to a semi-arid zone. After entering the secret realm, you must first go through the semi-arid area to the forest for hunting. The trip in and out takes at least three to four months. .
There appear to be no plants in the semi-arid zone, but there are a lot of poisons under the sand. It is best to use mobile homes when camping. Tents are not safe at all. The sharp mouthparts or large pliers of poisons can easily cut through artificial fabrics. Some of them have venomous stings, which can kill people invisible.
Of course there are sturdy tents, which are made entirely of tough exotic animal skins, but they are expensive. You can buy several construction tents for the price of one. This semi-arid area is dotted with large and small oases, which have become water supply points to the forest area, and small towns in the back are built around these oases.
This is the use of the secret map. There are no roads built here, and anyone can drive in all directions. Without a map, newcomers would really not be able to find water sources in the vast desert.
The oasis attracts humans to gather, and the smell of humans attracts poisonous animals, large and small, to come and prey. Therefore, the area around the oasis is also a dangerous zone. You may just walk casually, and a poisonous thorn will stick out from the sand bottom and pierce the sole of your shoe, killing you.
Town 2 is also quite simple. Ye Nai has visited so many secret places, and Town No. 2 in the Zijing Secret Realm is the simplest she has ever seen.
On a dry land where not a single blade of grass grows, several construction floors form a courtyard for people to live and work. Signal soldiers run in and out of the secret area to deliver messages. Of course, all living supplies are intact. Delivered from outside, Ye Nai even saw a water supply truck.
She changed into an off-road vehicle in the secret realm and followed the oases one by one as shown on the map. She released spores with each oasis as the center and connected the dots to ensure that the spores could be spread out in the secret realm as soon as possible and find the altar.
I didn’t expect that her behavior would bring about the correct result. Every altar she found was under the sand a few hundred meters away from the oasis. It was buried quite deep, more than ten meters deep. meters, but no matter how deep it is buried, as long as the spores can penetrate, they can be taken away.
This makes Ye Nai full of energy when traveling every day, and she does not feel bored at all.
It took nearly a month to visit eight or nine oases, and finally crossed the transition zone and entered the forest.
My behavior becomes even bolder when I enter the forest. I rely on the great movement of space to run around in the forest, looking for altars and prey, without any delay.
After collecting thirty altars one after another, Ye Nai finally established contact with the Zijing Secret Realm. The next second, he returned to the Dongling Secret Realm to wash himself and wash himself, planning to have a good rest for three days.
Of course, these three days are not just about lying down and doing nothing. You still have to do farm work. The temperature in the Dongling Secret Realm has almost risen to the level where you can plant seeds. Whether it can be done depends on the first half of the year.
She doesn’t even want to have a big harvest, as long as it’s not a complete harvest. As long as she can sprout and grow seedlings and harvest a little, it proves that her farming theory is right. Her spores naturally grow into special bacteria in the soil. With the group, you can farm in the secret realm and solve the problem of food shortage.
In addition to letting the crops grow slowly according to the laws of nature, Ye Nai left an acre of land for herself to grow various vegetables and fruits, built a frame for climbing vines, and provided enough fertilizer and water. In three days, she She harvested several hundred kilograms of each, and later replanted onions, ginger, and garlic. The harvest was enough for her to eat for several years.
The fruits and vegetables produced by this principle of using fungi to promote plant growth ignore seasonal factors and do not need to consider long-distance transportation. They are picked only when they are fully mature, which is called delicious.
Originally, I only planned to rest for three days, but due to various farm work, I ended up staying for a week before returning to the secret realm of Zijing.
