Chapter 6 Heart-warming
"Can living creatures survive in the cave? Or are there other circumstances that lead to the absence of living creatures..."
Chen Ling muttered, and then returned to reality from the cave. Get ready to give it a try.
“Ouch!”
Just as he stood up, Chen Ling suddenly tripped under his feet and almost fell down.
"What?"
Chen Ling looked down and was dumbfounded.
On the land in front of me, a large patch of morning glories grew, with lush branches and leaves. The vines were as thick as two fingers and very hard.
At this time, it is full of trumpet-shaped flowers, both blue and white, exuding a light fragrance.
“Holy shit, what’s going on?”
Chen Ling was a little confused for a moment.
But he seemed to think of something soon, and his eyes widened: "This...couldn't this be caused by the half bowl of water I poured on the ground, right?!"
Think about it carefully.
In fact, there are no other possibilities except that half bowl of water.
Because there is nothing that can have the magical effect of making plants grow quickly like the Sun Moon Cave Sky.
Unless this thing also comes from the Sun and Moon Cave.
I think there are morning glory seeds in the soil in the yard. This is very common in rural areas. When the wind blows, there will be no grass seeds in the yard.
As long as no one lives there for a period of time, it is normal for grass to grow in the yard and on the house.
Originally, the morning glory couldn't grow if you stepped on it in the yard, and the seeds couldn't germinate at all.
Now, the half bowl of stream water has inspired vitality, and it has grown into such a large piece quickly.
"It seems that in addition to some benefits to the human body, the stream water in the cave has greater effects on plants..."
"Hey, in this case, exchange the large wasteland of Erzhu's house for , There’s a lot to be done!”
While thinking, Chen Ling stretched out his hand to pull out these morning glory vines.
It turns out that this thing has deep roots and is extremely difficult to pull out.
On the other hand, it also reflects that when the Dongtian stream acts on plants, the effect is not very good.
Unable to pull it out with his hands, Chen Ling had to take out the stone hoe from the cave and dig it out.
Although the stone hoe is heavy, it is surprisingly easy to use.
This large piece of morning glory was dug out in a matter of seconds.
Chen Ling threw it into the cave.
Then I squatted in the yard and continued to explore the efficacy of the stream.
"Hmm..."
"Although the water in the cave also has an effect on outside plants, and the effect is good, will it have any restrictions on plants?"
"I just drank it. After drinking a bowl of water, I felt nothing. "
"Is it the same with plants? "
So Chen Ling took out another bowl of water and walked to the firewood pile. The corner next to it fell gently...
Sure enough, a large patch of miscellaneous weeds grew like crazy.
Even ordinary foxtail grass can grow as high as a human waist.
But when Chen Ling filled a second bowl of water and poured it on the roots of these weeds, they only swayed gently in the night wind and did not grow like before.
On the contrary, under Chen Ling's observation, it soon turned yellow and withered, and only produced plumper grass seeds than ordinary weeds.
“Is this capable of rapid ripening?”
Chen Ling frowned slightly, hoeed away the weeds, and tried using the seeds of other crops at home.
It was exactly as he guessed.
“It can ripen quickly, but it is only effective within the range of two bowls of water. If you are planting trees, two bowls of water will not make the saplings grow into towering trees...”
< br>"It seems that there is a big difference between the cave sky and the outside world. After the water in the cave sky reaches the outside world, the effect becomes much weaker. Only two bowls of water have the effect."
After pondering for a while, he I went back to Dongtian and gave it a try.
Sure enough, it has always been effective within the cave.
It doesn't work when taken to the outside world. It only works within two bowls of water.
After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn’t figure out why.
Just don’t think about it for now.
Just cleaned up the traces left in the yard.
Then he scratched his head and said, "Uh, what was I going to do just now?"
After all this tossing, he kind of forgot what he was going to do.
“Oh, by the way, living things!”
Chen Ling slapped his forehead, “There are no living things in the Sun and Moon Cave. I have to grab some living things and try it out.”
“But...there are no ants or bugs this season, so where can we find live animals?”
Chen Ling frowned and glanced around the yard.
Suddenly landed on the chicken coop at the east wall.
The only living animals at home are these chickens.
Although it was dark late at night, Chen Ling's night vision became very good after entering the Sun and Moon Cave several times.
Most things can be seen clearly. So he walked over, pushed open the small fence door of the chicken coop, and put his hand into the chicken coop.
It is now the beginning of the second lunar month and the weather is still cold. Chickens will go back to their coops to sleep at night, which makes them easier to catch.
After Chen Ling reached in, he touched a hot chicken thigh. Then, before the chicken could react and scream, he pulled it hard and entered the Sun Moon Cave.
“Ooooh!”
This is a big rooster.
The cock's comb was blood red and its feathers were bright and beautiful. At first, he was shocked when he found out that he was caught by Chen Ling in this strange environment.
But I was soon attracted by the beautiful scenery inside the cave and the fresh and pure air.
It flew energetically to the big tree in front of the hut, stretched its neck and let out a high-pitched cry.
Chen Ling laughed when he saw this.
Living creatures can come in, then he will feel relieved.
Not only can he now switch between the cave and reality at will, he can bring things inside and outside, and he can also allow plants and animals from the outside to enter.
Then the Sun Moon Cave Sky will be even more useful.
In addition, I have to mention that...
Since Chen Ling entered the Sun and Moon Cave for the first time, the secret box that carries the Sun and Moon Cave has been stationed in a way that is difficult for Chen Ling to understand. It arrived in the Niwan Palace between his eyebrows.
You can enter and exit the cave with just a thought.
No longer like the first time, the soul seemed to be gradually pulled away, and people fainted.
I don’t know if it’s the white mist in the cave that transformed the soul into what it is now, or some other reason.
But as Chen Ling explored, he discovered that this was some kind of permission granted to him by Sun Moon Cave Heaven.
It’s just like the legendary recognition of the master.
He had experimented just now. He wanted to get something from the cave.
As long as he has touched it, he can take it out from the cave with a thought.
For example, that hoe is like this.
So I put the big rooster in and let it run around.
Anyway, he can catch it anytime he wants.
After working in the cave for most of the night, Chen Ling gained a lot, and gradually figured out how to use the sun and moon cave.
When he came out again, he didn't forget to let out the big cock, and then went back inside and lay down.
……
The next morning.
Wang Susu opened her eyes, and it was already bright.
The sun shines into the room through the window paper, and spots appear on the quilt.
Wang Susu rubbed her eyes, still feeling a little sleepy.
After all, I worked hard all day yesterday and went to bed late at night. Although I got up later than usual, I still haven't recovered.
Next to him, Chen Ling was no longer in bed. He must have gone out early.
She has long been used to this kind of thing.
But when I thought of Chen Ling holding her and saying some words to her last night, as well as his gentle and considerate smile, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, and it was inevitable that I was a little disappointed.
"But if this continues, life will really be unbearable..."
The farmland has been replaced, and even filling one's stomach has become a problem.
Get dressed and get out of bed with a sigh.
As usual, Wang Susu was preparing to replace the iron stove with new charcoal to make breakfast.
Only when I got out of bed did I find that the charcoal blocks in the stove had been replaced and the fire was burning brightly.
At this time, she suddenly heard a "dang-dang-dang" knocking sound on the wooden board outside.
Lift the door curtain and walk outside to take a look.
In the yard, Chen Ling was wearing an apron and cutting vegetables on the chopping board.
Next to it is a stove made of simple stones, with firewood burning inside and a steamer steaming hot on it.
It smells like porridge.
But it is mixed with a wonderful fragrance, which is very appetizing.
Wang Susu couldn't help but swallow her saliva, and then her stomach made a 'gurgling' sound.
Fortunately, the sound is not too loud.
Otherwise, given her temperament, it would be a bit embarrassing.
“Are you up? Wash your face quickly, I’ll take the pot right away.”
Chen Ling raised his head and smiled at her, "I made some peanut, lotus seed and red date porridge. You can try it later."
Wang Susu's face was a little hot with this smile, and she looked at Chen Ling's quick movements. He picked up the pot, filled two bowls of porridge, put them on the stone table in the yard, and then said to her:
"Put it aside for a while before drinking, be careful not to burn it."
One Instantly, Wang Susu felt an indescribable feeling in her heart, and her whole body felt light and dizzy.
This scene seems to have only appeared in dreams.
