Chapter 111 Planting Experiment
The two walked around the mining area for a long time, and Qiao Xing started to talk about the business, "This planet has two suns, and it is very hot when the two suns take turns to scorch. The environment, temperature, and humidity are difficult to satisfy the growth of plants." Conditions. If we want to feed the plants, we need to find a place where the sun is not so intense, or create a shade place ourselves. After finding it, we need to change the soil quality and then water that piece of land with a lot of water.”
Qiao Ye asked: "Dr. Qiao Xing, can you change the sand here so that it can store water?"
Qiao Xing looked at her with admiration and said with a smile: "I grasped a difficult problem from the beginning, so smart."
"Sand is formed by long-term weathering. The particles are very small, much smaller than sand, and the gaps between the particles are also large. This causes water to naturally flow downward and cannot be stored. It has poor water retention and low nutrient content. .It is very difficult to plant on such land.”
"However, before our scientific team came to destroy Saturn, we had already done some research on this planet. So I brought a treasure that allows the sand to store water."
Qiao Xing took out two bottles of things from the space ring and said: "This is a plant fiber adhesive extracted from plants. Mix it with water, dilute it and mix it into the sand, so that the sand can have the function of soil. As long as it is used once, it can maintain the properties of the soil for a long time. ”
Qiao Ye was stunned when she looked at the plant fiber adhesive.
"Have you found a suitable place for planting?" Qiao Ye asked excitedly.
Qiao Xing took Qiao Ye for a while, "I found it, but both the plant fiber adhesive and the soil itself require a lot of water. I once thought that if a machine is used to convert water, it will probably require a lot of blue water." Crystal stone, this thing was probably difficult to accomplish until just now...you used the blue crystal stone to transform so much water..."
Qiao Xing's eyes seemed to be filled with stars.
Qiao Ye scratched the back of his head.
Qiao Xing patted her shoulder. He pointed at the land in front of him and smiled: "This is the land I like. This is the low-lying area of the nearby land, the bottom of the valley, surrounded by cliffs. Half of the day It can be kept in the shade for a long time. The soil here is not as sandy as outside, and it looks darker and more nutritious. Plants grown here have the best chance of survival.”
"If possible," Qiao Xing looked down at Qiao Ye with gentle eyes, "I hope you can fill the water from the lake here."
"If living plants can really be grown here." Qiao Xing said with a smile, "People in the Empire here will have food to eat. Also, my thesis for this year has been completed."
"...Haha, 6." Qiao Ye couldn't help but said.
Qiao Xing looked back at her.
Qiao Ye couldn't help but smile and said: "No problem. Just support the interstellar scientist's paper."
After that, she randomly picked a small blue crystal stone from the bag of waste stones that Yi Yuanhua gave her before.
As her water power was activated, the surging water energy in the blue crystal stone poured out.
Qiao Ye waved his hand slightly, and the blue crystal stone flew into the air. A large amount of water fell from the sky and hit the ground, nourishing a thirsty and dry land.
Pei Shiyi and Wei Guan looked at the water falling from the sky in surprise.
What's this?
This is not science.
This is a miracle.
Wei Guan murmured: "What is this?"
"Whether she uses a machine or something to control water...water is the source of all things. The reason why many planets have no life is because there is no water. If she can control water, then she can create life. If she can create life , then isn’t she a god? ”
Pei Shiyi glanced at Wei Guan.
Wei shut his mouth and turned to say: "General, will you let the dark sentries scattered across the stars come back now?"
Pei Shiyi shook his head: "No, the Dark Sentinel has not been found yet, so all activities will continue as usual."
Wei Guan: "Okay."
Qiao Ye controlled the water and soaked the area that Qiao Xing wanted to soak. There was a lot more water, forming a small shallow lake. However, this was where Qiao Xing had mixed some plant fiber adhesive, so The water did not sink completely.
When the water completely moistens the land, the land will slowly turn into cultivated land suitable for planting. This is using human power to change the environment!
Qiao Xing jumped down.
Seeing Qiao Xing jump down, Qiao Ye followed suit.
So Lu Chi, Pei Shiyi and Wei Guan also jumped down.
Qiao Xing found a corner and said: "You can only see the sun for about 4 hours a day here. I will plant a few potatoes here to see if they can survive."
Qiao Ye was curious to see Qiao Xing find a few well-stored and sprouted potato seedlings from the space ring, and he carefully planted them into the moist soil.
Then, I sprinkled some egg shells and stirred them into the soil.
There are not many places suitable for resting in the mining area. Since only caves are slightly cooler, the Imperial people live in caves carved into the stone walls. Yi Yuanhua divided the rooms into compartments for two people, and these compartments were all caves carved out of the stone walls.
Qiao Bang and Xie Chen shared a cubicle, Lu Chi and Qiao Ye shared a cubicle, and Pei Shiyi and Wei Guan also shared a cubicle.
As for the inside of the compartment, there was nothing and it was empty.
Waste Saturn is lacking in materials, and no one has anything to eat or drink, so it is good to be assigned a carved compartment.
Lu Chi tidied up in the cave.
Qiao Ye is a girl after all, and Lu Chi wanted to leave a private space for Qiao Ye, so he found a useless broken steel plate in the space ring, cut it with the tools in the space, and found a few hinges. , nailed to the entrance of the cave, and treated as a door.
Lu Chi looked back at Qiao Ye, who was also tidying up in the cave. She took out the temporary tent she had used when taking a bath and placed it in a corner of the cave as a shower room.
Lu Chi said: "I didn't bring a wooden bed, but I brought a foldable camp bed."
Lu Chi rolled out the camp bed, which was a 1-meter-wide single camp bed. He found a sleeping bag and placed it on the bed.
"Qiaoqiao, sleep on your bed tonight."
After speaking, Lu Chi placed another sleeping bag and spread it on the ground. Afterwards, Lu Chi began to sort out the things he brought that were suitable for Qiao Ye.
He took them out one by one, combs, shampoo, towels, girls' nightdresses, etc.
Then, he found a large bag of snacks.
Qiao Ye didn't know why Lu Chi was so foresight to put snacks and even some fruits that weren't bad in the space.
Lu Chi neatly placed the clothes that Qiao Ye might use on the bed.
Lu Chi: "Are you tired? Eat something."
However, at this moment, someone knocked on their steel door.
Lu Chi stood up and opened the door.
Outside the door were several third and fourth grade students from the Imperial Military Academy.
They murmured: "The grandchildren of the Empire's First Army are treated differently from us. Their cave actually has a door."
"The door is open. The door is open."
Lu Chi, who was 1.9cm tall, stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the students in front of him with a cold expression. "What's the matter?"
