Chapter 52 Time is running out

After walking for a while, Xiao Jing suddenly said, "This time when we go to the city, we will exchange more resources. We won't go on missions for the time being. You can just practice well at home. I'm going to go back to Fengyao Star."

"Go back" Qi Zhen was stunned for a moment, "You felt it too

"I have often gone on missions before and have experience in weather changes. The wards in the restricted area might have clouded the judgment, but now it's obvious. ”

“Autumn is really coming.” This summer is too short. Calculated according to the shortest year, there should be three years, plus one more year, no, half a year of autumn, how can it be three and a half years? The time was enough for her to store most of her winter supplies. No matter how calm she was, Qi Zhen was a little flustered. "You just said you were going back to Feng Yaoxing."

"Well, here's the news. Occlusion, need to go back to understand the specific situation. This round of summer seems to have been suddenly cut off at the waist. Autumn is bound to be greatly shortened, and winter may be even longer. We must be fully prepared. But don't worry, I'm here. "He has saved a lot of money over the years, which is enough to support her. "Do you want to come together?"

"You must have a lot of things to deal with when you go back this time. Time is tight, so I won't follow you. Moreover, the power upgrade has not been clarified yet, so we cannot delay it any longer. ”

Xiao Jing was a little regretful, but thinking about taking her back now, he really couldn’t stay with her every day. It would definitely be uncomfortable for her to stay alone in a strange place, and she also had to deal with a group of unfamiliar people. The family members of the garrison, coupled with his awkward position, didn’t feel at ease no matter how hard he thought about it, “Let’s get them together when we have free time. "

"Okay. Hey, I seem to have seen an Elaeagnus tree. Please put me down. "

"I'll carry you there"

As soon as they arrived near the Elaeagnus jujuba tree, Qi Zhen immediately jumped off Xiao Jing's back, "I'll walk around nearby, there are many strange plants here. If there are more, there should be a lot of supplies. "

"Be careful of strange beasts and let the sun be with you. "

"Gua" when did it become a guard before it was clearly an assistant?

Qi Zhen took a general look and found that there were indeed a lot of supplies. In addition to sweet lettuce, there were also many Wild vegetables. What surprised her the most was an above-ground river. It might only be considered a stream, but it was indeed on the ground. "We also had a few empty buckets, so we could collect some water. ”

“Two, one was emptied when watering the ground, and one was found in the basement. ”

“Then fill these two buckets first. I'll go install the water pump and come back to pick Elaeagnus with you. "

"No rush. ”

Wild Elaeagnus jujubes are big, each one is about the size of a thumb. There are as few as five or six in a bunch, as many as twelve or three. It looks like you can pick a lot. There are two in total, and one of them will bear fruit. The yellow fruit has so many thorns on the branches that you will get a hole in your hand if you are not careful, but the other one has fewer burgundy thorns.

“It’s a waste of time to pick them one by one. . The Elaeagnus are so ripe that they fall off when touched, and they have to be picked up from the ground. Qi Zhen thought for a moment, took out the sheets from her bracelet, and directed Da Hua and Yang Yang to lay them under the tree together. "Xiao Jing, go up the tree and shake the branches." "

Xiao Jing immediately climbed up the tree, shaking and stamping his feet, and the angustifolia clattered onto the sheets like rain. There were also small branches and leaves that fell together. They didn't look very clean, but they saved a lot of effort. Just go home and pick them slowly.

When the angustifolia was covered with the sheets, Qi Zhen grabbed the four corners of the sheets, lifted them up and poured them into the basket, and then continued. Two Elaeagnus trees were almost harvested in less than an hour. There were five baskets in total. It was an absolute bumper harvest. When she was happy, she left all the scattered Elaeagnus jujube hanging on the tree and the scattered ones on the ground to the sun and the big flowers as snacks, but the two were very happy.

Xiao Jing found a lot of dry energy fruit trees in the woods, and the two simply separated. He just cut down the trees and Qi Zhen was responsible for collecting the ingredients.

She first found a piece of wild beans, which are medium-level nutritious ingredients. However, because no one has picked them for a long time, the beans have aged a lot. Some of them are barely edible, and their nutrition has dropped a lot. The other part can only be left as seeds. Only the top is still a little tender. Qi Zhen picked them all and didn't want to throw away any of them. She didn't have carob seeds anyway, and the land at home happened to be empty, so she tried to plant some.

Although the germination rate of wild ones is not high, there are so many seeds, and they are all picked up for free. The price of nutritional seeds above the intermediate level in the dungeon is not low, and they are often out of stock. If you want to buy them, you have to rely on connections or try your luck, which is quite troublesome anyway.

Hey, those are potatoes. Qizhen grabbed a potato seedling and looked at it carefully, barely matching the number in her memory. Suddenly she burst into laughter. Why was she trying so hard? She couldn't just dig it out. She took out a shovel and dug down at a distance. The second shovel dug out a round, dusty potato, the size of a fist. Her accuracy was a bit extraordinary and she peeled off a piece.

Qi Zhen felt distressed and hurriedly put away the spade and replaced it with a shovel. Sand is easy to dig, but digging a few more shovels is better than digging too much. The nutrition of the potato seedlings cannot keep up, and the fruits are small, about the size of a fist. There are only two or three in each plant, and what is left is almost a series of ping pong balls. They are so well-proportioned that they look quite irritating. She dug them all and barely managed to get one basket of big ones and half of the baskets of small ones.

I haven’t come across many mid-level nutritious vegetables since then. They are all low-level, such as Chinese cabbage, leeks, taro, etc. There are many types but the quantity is too small, and some are barely enough for one meal. .

In the afternoon, Qizhen finally found a cornfield. Although it is also a mid-level nutritious food, it cannot be held back by food, which is very filling. It’s just that she doesn’t like food made from corn. When it's tender, she's quite happy to cook it or bake it.

But it was obviously old, and the corn kernels on the cob were hard and dry. Apart from grinding it into flour and steaming it into steamed buns, or beating some corn crumbs and making porridge with millet, Qizhen can't think of any other way to eat it. She was fine with a meal once in a while, but couldn't stand it every day.

It’s not a pity if it’s just like this. At worst, you can give it back to the sun and the big flower. Maybe the big flower is as nutritious as one egg a day.

It was almost evening when the family finished their work and hurried home in the darkness.

Time was tight, and the two of them got busy as soon as the sun appeared the next day. The adobe in the yard has been driedTo do it, first build the sheepfold and chicken coop tightly. In order to prevent the warm volume from collapsing due to heavy snowfall in winter, Xiao Jing spent some time building the foundation. The stones for the foundation were ready-made, and they brought some of them back after digging. Although there is no cement, the mud from the groundworms can make up for it.

Qi Zhen handed over the adobe bricks, while Xiao Jing just built the walls. The two cooperated tacitly and quickly built the surrounding walls. After being exposed to the sun at noon, the roof can be put up in the afternoon. There were quite a few rafters left from the last canopy construction, just enough to make beams.

Most of the day has passed since the warm roll was covered. The materials can be sorted out slowly, but the isolation stone Xiaojing wants to build the cellar with isolation stones before leaving. The only problem is how to stick it to the wall. The first thing I considered was mud, but unexpectedly it wasn’t sticky enough.

“I only have vegetable glue at home, and I’m afraid it’s not as good as mud.” Qi Zhen gestured at the wall with an isolation stone, “Or we don’t need to assemble it directly. These isolation stones themselves It contains energy, and maybe if they are put together, they will form a whole. But adding mud or glue will affect the energy flow. I only put three pieces together and they were connected together."

"Awesome" Xiao Jing patted the isolation stone on the wall, "It's solid and very strong. It seems like it should have been built here."

"It's amazing." Qi Zhen couldn't help but touch it again, feeling very good. Incredible.

"It means we used it correctly."

"Let's fight quickly. After finishing the fight, go to bed early. We have to go to the dungeon tomorrow."
