After working, she had to go to sleep, but she slept until dawn, and she didn't know if the patrol team had returned.

Li Xiaoxiao first opened the mall to take a look, but there was nothing good, and then wanted to go outside to see if the big card of the patrol team was there, but as soon as she went out, she was scalded back by the heat wave.

"What's the matter?" She touched her cheek, the temperature was so high that she felt like she was being scorched by the flames, "It's burning outside?"

Chapter 18

Li Xiaoxiao immediately ran to the window to observe, changed several angles, but couldn't find the place where it was lit, but found that today's sunshine was particularly vicious.

The windows were originally opened for ventilation and cooling. Now that the windows are open, the sun shines directly into the container. It is like throwing a fire into the container, making the small room extremely hot.

She closed the window and glanced at the clockwork, which showed six-eighteen.

Xingfu has already determined the correct time, she checked it with Babyface, so her watch is correct, is it so hot at six o'clock, she has a premonition that today will be very difficult, don't know that Babyface will find someone who digs the basementNo?

It's too hot. It's too hot.

Li Xiaoxiao was washing her face lazily, wishing to splash water on herself. Thinking of eating hot food for breakfast, she couldn't whet her appetite at all. As a result, Brother Mo made cold noodles. Although there was no vinegar, the taste was a little worse, butAt least she could eat it, she huddled in the shade of a tree and sucked a little bit of noodles.

By the way, she saw lemons in the mall this morning. They are also sour. Can they be used instead of vinegar?

She completed the second achievement of picking up trash yesterday, and received 15 diamonds, a total of 70 deposits, and the lemon was only five diamonds, so she bought it if she wanted to, no need to worry too much.

Li Xiaoxiao dug out the pineapple she bought earlier, "Brother Mo, eat the pineapple."

This thing is too troublesome to eat, so can only leave it to Chen Mo. It is very convenient for him to dig pineapple seeds with his ability. Keep the pineapple heads in his backpack and plant them with raspberries sometime.

Chen Mo quickly processed the pineapple and soaked it in salt water.

Li Xiaoxiao ate the noodles while staring, swallowed the last mouthful of noodle soup, picked up the pineapple and took a bite, the system produced it was good, the pineapple was just the right sweet and sour, not astringent at all, and juicy and crispy, taking away the sweltering heat of the morning.

When the baby face arrived, she saw her nibbling a pineapple beautifully, the fragrance of the fruit wafted over, she couldn't help slurping, and swallowed quietly.

He was sincerely envious: "Your food is much better than ours."

Li Xiaoxiao said vaguely: "When the pineapple is planted, it will be sold to you first."

Babyface wanted to say how long it would take, but smelling the scent of pineapple, the words came to his lips: "It's done, don't forget it."

Li Xiaoxiao said that she would never forget that Chen Mo had already picked the mint leaves in the morning, and she just handed them over to the other party, "Did anyone find it?"

Babyface gave her the notebook and pen: "I found it, I found it, I'll come later."

Li Xiaoxiao was very relieved, she really couldn't bear the high temperature during the day, and she wanted to become a nocturnal creature urgently, but what about the mint exchange business, she flipped through the book, the pages were yellow, and there were traces of someone writing on the front, and she couldn't bear it.Don't know where it came from.

She asked, "Your patrol team still patrols during the day?"

Babyface thought for a while, and explained to her: "Recently, the higher-ups are arranging a new schedule. Several people have died of heat stroke in the city next door."

This means that the patrol team also plans to stay out at night, and it seems that the mint business can continue.

Li Xiaoxiao asked the rabbit shearing question that she had been thinking about, and she got a good answer. She looked at the sky, and the sun was like the light from electric welding, which was very dazzling, "Do you have plastic film, I want to get a sunshade for Tian.”

It's too hot, and those big trees with well-developed root systems more than ten meters high are in a state of distress, let alone the crops in the farmland. She dare not water them, for fear that the temperature will be too high to burn the roots. If this continues, she feels that something will happen.

The baby face followed and swept across the fields of Xiaomo Farm. The crops that were still radiant and straight yesterday were now drooping. He felt distressed when he saw it: "Yes, I will send it over with someone later, and I won't be here today."Send bluestone slabs."

Li Xiaoxiao was shocked and started to work. The sunshade awning only needs a sunshade cover, and it is necessary to build a shelf. The material is moso bamboo.

She put on the rattan hat and was mentally prepared, and finally she stepped out of the shade of the tree and came into contact with the sun. She immediately wanted to howl, feeling like a ghost, about to melt into the hot sun.

Help, how come it's so hot and so hot?

But the more you delay, the higher the temperature will be, so hurry up and get things done.

Chen Mo was in charge of sharpening the moso bamboo, and Li Xiaoxiao inserted the cut into the gap between the farmland and the farmland. There were nearly 200 pieces of farmland, just for laying the groundwork. In addition, the two worked efficiently, and it took them half an hour to finish it.

Chen Mo looked at Li Xiaoxiao's sweaty clothes on his back, and his flushed cheeks, subconsciously frowned: "Go and rest."

She brushed away the sweat sticking to her face: "It's okay, let's get the rabbit nest done first."

Chen Mo didn't say any more, and went straight into the rabbit's nest. He was going to shave the rabbit, so he could finish it early and rest early.

Li Xiaoxiao followed behind him, changed the water for the trough, replaced it with new rabbit grass, and put the shaved rabbit hair into the backpack. This is a good thing to keep warm, even if it is too little to make clothes, use it to make rabbit furThe earcups are also good.

After finishing the work on the rabbit nest, she hurried to the farmland and harvested the mature crops. The bright red strawberries were hung among the green leaves. They did not wither after being picked once, and they seemed to be plants that had grown many times. The peppers were harvested for the third time.Just wither, it should be harvested only three times.

The cabbage is ripe again, and it will drop seeds very much. Every time harvest, can get a lot of seeds. The seeds can’t be planted, and they occupy the grid of the wooden box. Now there are three wooden boxes on the farmland, all of which are full of miscellaneous things.Now, she plans to find a time to pack it up and take it to the market to sell.

It looks like the onion is about to ripen, and the carrot has finally grown up. It's really gratifying...

She looked around and found that the temperature was high and the soil had already dried out. Among all the crops, corn grew the best, and she planned to continue planting corn. After so many days of picking mint, it seemed that it had finally reached maturity. After Chen Mo picked the leaves,They wilt and need to be replanted.

But the temperature is too hot, she plans to plant later, and is hesitant to water, fearing that she will die if she doesn't water, she tried to water a corn plant, ten minutes later, it doesn't look like there is a problemOnly then did they water the other crops.

Originally, she thought that Babyface would arrive in the afternoon, but she didn't expect that an hour later, the other party would bring someone with him, drive two cars, bring a car full of things, and beckon someone to get out of the car and move things.

Li Xiaoxiao looked at it and thought it was a plastic film, but it turned out to be a thick layer of black woven mesh. She picked it up and inspected it, but she didn't know what material it was made of. It felt like nylon, but it felt as flexible as a plant, and the mesh was quite fine.

Babyface threw her another bundle of thin vine tie, "Where do you want to dig a basement, take Master Zhao to have a look."

The skinny little old man nodded to her, feeling quite arrogant.

Li Xiaoxiao didn't care either, it's normal for a capable person to be a little arrogant, as long as he does his job well, she pointed at the container: "I want to dig under there, is that okay?"

Master Zhao didn't give affirmative words, just said: "Let me see first."

The little old man took his apprentices around the container first, took out the Luoyang shovel and dug a shovel against the container, and then observed the soil, his two thick eyebrows frowned.

Seeing his expression, Li Xiaoxiao knew that the situation was not good. Master Zhao noticed the earth pit she had dug out, jumped into it for a while, climbed up and glanced at her.

This glance made her feel bad, and sure enough, the little old man said: "You can't dig a basement here, the sandy loam is too soft, and it's wet near the water source. If you want to build a basement, you need cement and steel bars to bear the load, otherwise it will collapse."

Li Xiaoxiao's head grew dizzy when she heard it.

It’s okay to talk about steel bars, but now there is a real shortage of cement. After all, cement has a shelf life. Ten years ago, it expired long ago, and iron ore is needed to make cement. They don’t have mines here, and they just returned to the ground. Xingfu is vigorouslyFor development, cement is used in many places, and she is really not sure that she can get it.

Even if she could get it, she dug the basement to escape the heat, and digging low would be ineffective, and digging so much deep would cost a lot of money.

Li Xiaoxiao had a sullen face, disappointed and irritable in her heart, but the top of her head was getting hotter and hotter. After standing for a while, she felt that the soles of her shoes were about to melt and stick to her feet. She didn't give up: "Can I use wood?"

Master Zhao vetoed: "No, yours is very humid, and the wood is easy to rot."

She fell to the bottom of her mood and reluctantly thanked her.

The baby face could see that she was in a bad mood, too, if the heat continued like this, it would be too hot to death, he comforted: "Don't worry, you are helping the quartermaster so much, the matter of cement is easy to talk about, it really doesn't work, there are other ways,There is Xingfu behind you, let's go first."

Li Xiaoxiao understood his hint, and if it really got to that point, don't worry about the state taking care of her.

She was even more touched. As expected of her motherland, it has always been people-oriented, but the country is also facing challenges at the moment. Even if the summer residence is really allocated, the conditions are estimated to be similar to those of the underground base. If the outside environment is too harsh, it might be abandoned.Back to the underground base.

She didn't want to be crowded into a room with so many people, and all kinds of smells were mixed together. She felt suffocated when she thought of the stale air, not to mention the constant snoring at night and the stinky smell of urine.I should have gotten used to the place where have lived for many years, but can't bear it at all when recall it now.

It is really easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

Li Xiaoxiao sighed, but she has a large independent room where she doesn’t have to be crowded with others, she doesn’t have to endure snoring and bad smells, she also has her own bathroom, where she can wash off the dirt as much as she wants, and she can eat fresh vegetables and fruits, why should she go back to the past??

She doesn't want it.

Li Xiaoxiao bit her nails, thinking of a solution.

Chen Mo looked at her biting the red finger, and said, "Xiao Xiao, where is Xiteng?"

Li Xiaoxiao came back to her senses, and handed over the fine vines given by the baby face, and then realized that Chen Mo was going to spread a sunshade net, and bent down to pick up the black net: "Brother Mo, do you want to cover the apple tree?"

Chen Mo: "Cover it."

She quickly shook off the sunshade net, and hung on the bamboo pole with Chen Mo.

The sunshade net is black and opaque, and light will leak through the fine holes, but most of it is covered. Once covered, Li Xiaoxiao feels much cooler. She uses thin vines to pass through the holes and tie them to bamboo poles to fix the sunshade.The net was suddenly heavy, and it turned out that the blue magpie had landed on the net and was still holding something in its paws.

She swept it casually and found that it looked like a cicada.

Chen Mo: "Iron Tree Cicada?"

He said happily: "Xiao Xiao, I have a way to build a basement."

Chapter 19

11 Li Xiaoxiao opened her eyes wide and asked again and again: "What, Brother Mo, what did you find?"

Chen Mo pointed to the cicada under the claws of the blue magpie: "I have seen this insect before. It is called the iron tree cicada, and it feeds on the iron tree fruit."

She thought: "The name Iron Tree..."

Chen Mo nodded: "Yes, the tree is as its name suggests, this kind of tree is as hard as steel, extremely hard to rot and not easy to get wet."

Li Xiaoxiao's heart pounded.

The reason Master Zhao refused her to use wood just now is that the tree is prone to collapse due to moisture. If it is iron tree, there is no problem. In addition, the wood can be tenoned and tenoned, without cement, which greatly reduces the cost, and all the problems that troubled her are easily solved.

The most important thing is that she doesn't have to move out of the farm and go to the patrol camp to squeeze with others, so she can continue to enjoy the convenience of the farm, and it is also convenient to take care of the crops and rabbits in the field.

In short, there are many benefits.

He is really grateful. Old Han is his five-year old teammate. Due to the deep mutation of the radiation accumulation in his body, he happened to encounter the red moon. The radiation sickness broke out on a large scale, and the supply of anti-radiation needles was in short supply.If it wasn't luck to run into Li Xiaoxiao, she might have died.

The soldiers around fell silent, watching Li Xiaoxiao, comrades in arms for many years are family members, and she saved their family members.

Li Xiaoxiao wanted to hide from so many pairs of sincere eyes, and said in a low voice, "It's not a big deal, it's just a coincidence."

She took the paper: "Okay, wait for me to download, and take back today's apple by the way."

She and Chen Mo went to pick apples, and the patrol team stayed in the shade to rest. When she came back steaming, she found that the sunshade net had been pulled up, the rabbit grass and bamboo branches that were drying in the sun had been turned over, and the nearby weeds had been pulled out.There are quite a few, and they are thrown beside the bamboo branches to dry together.

The soldiers didn't need her to thank them, they took the apples and got on the card and left. Before leaving, Qiang Zi said that he would definitely bring the news to her, so that she could rest assured.

Li Xiaoxiao looked at the end of Daka's disappearing road, this group of people.

To solve a big problem, she relaxed her whole body, walked under the sunshade net, stretched out her hand and tugged it, making sure that it was firm and would not fall off easily, went around behind the container, and set up sunshade nets for apple trees and tomato trees.

The trees grow fast, yesterday they reached the height of her knees, and today they reach her thighs, and the branches are divided into several clumps, which should have been full of vitality, but now they are limp due to lack of water.

When Li Xiaoxiao got the good news, she didn't have the mood to work at all: "Brother Mo, did you see the iron tree when you were patrolling before?"

Chen Mo shook his head. That's why he didn't mention the iron tree when Master Zhao rejected the wood. He thought there was no such tree here.

Li Xiaoxiao nodded her forehead: "It's not urgent, you will find it if you look slowly. I want to find Babyface first, and ask him to bring someone over to dig a hole."

She was so hot that she didn't want to wait any longer, she just wanted to get out of the basement quickly, and was about to go to the patrol team, when Qiang Zi and the others came out of the forest and stayed for one more night.Neat, no missing arms or legs, at most a few scratches on the face.

"Are you all right?"

In Huaguo W City, the anti-radiation drug research was successful, and the disaster ended. The people who had just walked out of the underground base screamed and jumped, venting their inner excitement.

Li Xiaoxiao bypassed a man who was kneeling on the ground crying loudly, walked far away, and could still hear the man screaming with all his strength. She understood their joy.Forced to leave their homeland and languish, now——

They are finally back.

But there are many people who are always sober. She swept through the recruitment booths on the street, and the queues were long and long. When they came to the ground, it did not mean that everything was better. The farmland was abandoned and the pastures were buried by weeds. Food became the biggest survival problem.People in disasters are more pragmatic than anyone else. Of course, filling their stomachs is more important than the joy of returning. They want to live.

The recruits here are for physical labor, mostly men, but of course there are also women, usually a group of several people help each other.

When Li Xiaoxiao saw familiar faces in the team, it was Zhu Linghe and Wang Xiang, a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes.

In the underground base they huddled together in the same workshop. Zhu Linghe had troubled her many times. Li Xiaoxiao was lonely and liked to walk alone. Zhu Linghe took advantage of the large number of people and robbed her of food several times, causing her to almostStarving to death, she naturally hates this kind of murderer.

Zhu Linghe and Wang Xiang also saw her, and made a throat-slitting gesture full of malice.

Li Xiaoxiao squinted her eyes and waited for her, then turned and left, regardless of the sudden burst of laughter behind her, she picked up discarded steel bars, wooden fences, and broken cement along the roadside, and stuffed everything she saw into rattan bags, in fact, she had received it.In the system space, there is nothing unnecessary anyway, and they are all treasures to her.

She picked it up for a while, fearing that people would find it wrong, so she went around to another street. It would have been faster to enter the abandoned house to search, but she was worried that there would be mutant beasts inside, which would be unsafe, and she would rather be tired and slower outside.

She didn't let go of anything she could come across while keeping an eye on the system.

A day ago, Li Xiaoxiao came to the top floor of the base to clean the place closest to the ground. Suddenly, a white light flashed, her forehead was in great pain, and then the system appeared in her mind.

Since she didn't get it for a long time, she only figured out a simple way to use it. She knew that it was a hoarding system, and she could get diamonds by hoarding specified items and achieving achievements, and diamonds could be exchanged for blueprints of various materials.

The value of things like cement blocks and scrap steel bars is not high, not only are there few diamonds in exchange, so
