Chapter 574: Leisure
Mr. Li Cang walked around in the hydroponic room and the underground space created by the insect colony. He changed the nutrient solution, sorted out the plant varieties, and paid attention to the breeding status of various birds and animals that served as food reserves.
The insect swarm is obviously very experienced in "raising" and "planting". They carefully control the types of plants and the number of animals, and manage the underground space in an orderly manner. Even the eggs that Li Cang took back have been hatched. Out came the cubs.
It is worth mentioning that these underground spaces are not completely isolated from each other and the outside world, but are connected by corridors, but neither birds nor animals kept inside will wander around in various spaces or run outside. It was as if there was a force field that blocked their perception of passages and entrances.
Insect swarms would swarm in large groups every once in a while. Even if there were no mineral resources around, Li Cang and Lao Wang guessed that it was a large party where they went to collect animals and plants. It was quite interesting to say that the insect swarms or the queen bees were very interested in Li Cang. Cang Laowang I was extremely disgusted with the stupid order to build an excessive amount of breeding space, and believed that this kind of nonsensical order was contrary to the normal development of the insect colony. However, once the breeding space was completed, it immediately smelled great, and I was busy all day long. I was more interested in it than anyone else.
The several half-dead barrel-shaped bellows that used to be placed under the torreya trees in the grove above were also moved here by the worker bees, and they were even divided into groups. There is a group of bees in each underground space, but now they no longer use beehives, and some are Good place for it to nest.
"Holy shit, this is much better than what I took care of. A lot of them died every day when they were up there!" Lao Wang dug out a piece of golden honeycomb from the crack in the rock and stuffed it into his mouth to chew. "It's so sweet, so much honey. , and the bees look healthy!”
"It's not that you didn't take good care of it, it's just that there are no flowers on it for collecting honey. By the way, do you still have the royal jelly? Aunt Jin and our mother are about to get into a fight because of the little royal jelly you gave us. Let's talk about it another day Bring her a little bit.”
"Got it!"
The royal jelly produced by the insect colony cannot be eaten by humans, but after dilution, it has a miraculous effect on wrinkle removal, melanosis, and beauty. Li Cang and the others usually eat honey from serious bees.
As for honey, the underground supermarket on Licang Island stocks a lot of very good quality linden tree honey, but everyone agrees that it is particularly sweet when it is dug freshly from the hive.
Haha, these are all bad habits.
The first batch of survivors in the underground space have begun to make contributions. The most common ones are various berries and fruit trees transplanted from Tili Floating Land. The two of them picked several large baskets at will, and the fruit smell was amazing and satisfying.
Li Cang clicked a fruit that looked like a guava: "It would actually be good if life was like this. Do you still remember the old man named Niu at that time? I don't know what it is like over there now."
"Huh? It's hard to imagine that a guy like you would have such an idea!" Lao Wang was guarding a wooden mortar to pound berry puree. He wanted to turn these things into fermented juice: "In the land of paradise, men farmed and women weaved. In those days, you Can you really survive?”
"Speaking of which, there really is someone on the forum, and there is more than one person. It is an organization that has abandoned modern civilization and even the little money bastards, and is guarding a place where no one knows, where there are no walking corpses or strange beasts. The biggest thing every day is Think about what to eat in the morning, what to eat at lunch, and what to eat in the evening, and you don’t have to worry about anything. How wonderful!”
"Shit." Lao Wang curled his lips, "Do they have a young lady? Do they have WIFI? Do they have delicacies from the mountains and seas? They just look like a bird all day! Then they are ascetics!"
Well, Li Cang couldn't sigh anymore, and his emotions were completely shattered after a hard time.
"Put up the grill. No one will be cooking at noon anyway. Let's roast a bird!"
"Hey, this is so true~"
The eggs have been well taken care of by the insect swarm and have already hatched. Why are there still those seabirds that have their wings stuck out like turkeys, pooping everywhere and wasting fish and shrimps?
Selecting suitable seabirds to raise is also an important task to enrich the diet. Not every kind of seabirds can be eaten, some are so unpalatable, some will cause diarrhea, and some will even be poisoned. Breeding and domestication are an indispensable part.
This stuff is almost giving Lao Wang a psychological shadow. You never know how wonderful they taste in your mouth. The only motivation that motivates Li Cang to try this is to try to add more to Kongdao’s menu. Daocai, compared to Lao Wang who never knew what suffering was like in the early days of the Sky Island Era, children like Li Cang who are used to suffering and afraid of poverty are so pragmatic.
It was rare that Lao Wang didn't look embarrassed to accompany Li Cang to "test dishes", but he was quite happy: "Zhou Cao, you can't talk too much in the future. I was stunned for a moment just now. I thought you were really rich." What about this weird idea of washing your hands and retreating into the mountains~" As a man, he has a strange obsession with winning and losing, but he also has a relatively normal desire to win and lose.
Take Lao Wang for example. If you just order anything on the rails, there will be a lot of people crazyly posting on the forum and shouting about how awesome it is. However, if you let him live the life of an ordinary person, then Master Wang will definitely suffer. Can’t live.
While plucking the feathers of an unknown alienated seabird, Lao Wang casually took out a bottle of beer from the stone puddle beside the pond.
"A whole mouthful?"
"Get out!"
"You have to practice your drinking, you know, right? If you don't drink and I don't drink so much good wine, where can I put it? If you don't get drunk and I don't get drunk, who will sleep on the curb?" Lao Wang's eyes lit up, "Oh, here comes the work again! ”
Many geological fragments several hundred meters in size that are not even considered "islands" appeared dotted in the direction they were heading. Despite their size, there were actually trees, houses and living creatures on these islands. It was very interesting to see. Wang tutted.
Li Cang raised his telescope and took a look.
"Huh?"
"What's going on?"
"Whatever~" Lao Wang threw the seabird aside and clambered onto the crossbow platform. "With so many islands, this week's annexation share has been designated!"
Lao Wang was just about to use the chain crossbow to hook back several wild islands in the near distance, when he suddenly thought of something and winked at Li Cang: "Want to practice your skills?"
"What?"
"Hey, when I made that SOP, I made a lot of semi-finished products. Except for the lack of special effects, everything else is pretty much the same. How about a shot?"
"hit!"
I wonder which man can refuse this kind of physical and mental pleasure?
The two fakes are obviously much shorter than the real thing of Little Miss. They are the first-generation versions, but they are also genuine snipers!
With a gun in hand, Li Cang and Lao Wang each took out a bag of golden melon seeds and officially opened the market.
"I have 250 pills here. How about 25 pills per shot? Or go bigger? Teacher Cang?"
"Oh, it works, the loser washes the winner's underwear and socks!"
"."
If you want to be ruthless, you should be ruthless!
