, just right for tying things.

This way the basic skeleton is half done. Li Xiaoxiao shook her red and swollen fingers and sat down to rest. With the light of the morning glory, she looked at the chicken coop that had just taken shape, while gnawing on the grilled fish bought in the market, feeling extremely comfortable., it would be nice to have orange juice.

Thinking of the sweet and sour taste of orange juice, she regretted that she drank it yesterday, and she should drink it now. She licked her mouth and thought, it really is an orange tree.

Although she can't drink orange juice, she has raspberries. The bright red and juicy "little strawberry" is thrown into her mouth and chewed. The experience of the pulp bursting into the mouth is also very good.

After resting, Li Xiaoxiao continued to drive piles on the side near the stone wall of the chicken coop. After finishing the piles, she tapped her toes and tied a wooden pole to the top of the tree pole to hang the sunshade net. The materials used were the leftovers from Chen Mo’s floor, the shape is not the same, but there are many useful materials left, that is, the floor is a large project, so there are so many scraps.

It was already five hours later when everything was done, but the results were remarkable.

That soldier is very skilled. The nets he made are so fine that even larger bees cannot fly in. The material used is fine rattan, which cannot be damaged by ordinary animals, and the safety is much improved. And the sunshade netOn the one hand, it gives shade, and on the other hand, it can block the birds of prey in the sky. She saw a black eagle flying past before, and the blue magpie was too frightened to move.

She opened the door of the hen house and let the chickens come out to have fun during the day. If they feel hot, they can hide back in the stone house. There is no need to worry about the weeds here.

At this time, she remembered that the loofah seedlings given to her by Brother Bing hadn't died for so long, so she quickly grabbed them to check, but fortunately, the leaves were a little fuzzy, nothing else.

Chen Mo paused, but agreed.

When the two walked out of the wooden house, Li Xiaoxiao suddenly felt that the light was not right, and when she looked up, she saw a black thing flying over, "Is it a cloud? But the speed is wrong, and the height is too short."

And she faintly heard the sound of fluttering wings, maybe it was a bug, the black patch wasn't that big, and she didn't pay much attention to it, she just wondered how could there be bugs when the farm was full of mint.

Chen Mo seemed to see it more clearly than her: "It's a locust."

Chapter 28

"locust?"

Li Xiaoxiao was shocked, and seeing the cloud in the sky fall to the ground and disappear, she immediately ran to the farmland as if her butt was on fire, checking the leaves of the crops, saying that troublemakers can prevent birds from eating them, and locusts and the like should alsoCan prevent it.

The result was disappointing to her, the troublemakers would not repel grasshoppers like birds, don't know if they couldn't tell, or they judged that the damage was not serious, anyway, it can't be counted on.

The crops in the field showed more or less signs of being eaten by locusts, especially the corn leaves. When she came over, she found that the locusts were still on the corn leaves, and the black flaky mouthparts were chewing the corn leaves.Her dark green corn saplings were immediately mutilated, and their growth slowed visibly.

Depend on!

Li Xiaoxiao became angry immediately, distressed and annoyed, and said to those who have experienced the catastrophe, everything else is fine, but if you touch my food, that is to poke my heart to death, and it will explode at one point, absolutely notTolerate!

She rolls up her sleeves to catch grasshoppers. The eyesight of grasshoppers is obstructed at night, and she is not as flexible as during the day.The number rose rapidly.

The cornfield alone allowed her to catch more than thirty grasshoppers. Fortunately, the number was not too many, at least not as overwhelming as she thought, where there was no locust plague everywhere, and she felt a little comforted.

Turning around in other farmlands, the number of grasshoppers in Li Xiaoxiao's hand changed to more than two hundred. When she finished catching a round and returned to the cornfield, she found that in the field that had just been caught, grasshoppers appeared again.The figure of the grasshopper probably came from the dense forest.

Li Xiaoxiao avoided his eyes: "I heard, I..."

Babyface frowned: "Are you in trouble? Tell me."

Li Xiaoxiao sighed, there must be something to say about the locusts, even if the news would destroy everyone's good mood: "I found a swarm of locusts, the scale is not large, I don't know how many there are in other places."

She described what she saw carefully, hoping to help Brother Bing.

The originally relaxed face of the baby face suddenly became serious.

The locust plague is no joke. Even before the disaster, Xingfu was plagued by locust plagues, and a large area of land was deserted. But at that time, they had chicken flocks to fight the disaster. Tens of thousands of chickens were released on the grassland for you to eat.Clean and tidy, but the number of broilers is pitifully small at the moment, let alone to curb the plague of locusts.

The two were quiet for a while, scolding this fucking world in their hearts, never letting them go, obviously the heat disaster is not over yet.

"That's a really big problem."

Li Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement: "I think so too."

Then Li Xiaoxiao said, "Bluestone slab."

Build up the road, and it will be convenient to pass in the future.

Chen Mo: "I want Xiteng."

The two looked at each other, and Li Xiaoxiao said, "I want both."

After discussing with his comrades, Qiang Zi agreed: "Okay."

Li Xiaoxiao thought for a while and asked, "Do you have any rice seedlings?"

Qiang Zi smiled wryly: "Let's not talk about rice seedlings, there isn't even a grain of rice, and the whole country is eating sweet potatoes."

After all, rice has a long planting cycle and has requirements for the growth environment. It is not as fast-growing as sweet potatoes, and it is drought-resistant and not afraid of the sun. It does not require much water.

But Qiang Zi didn't say he was dead: "I will help you apply to the higher authorities."

Li Xiaoxiao: "Okay, seeds and anti-radiation needles can also be exchanged."

She went to pick the mint under the window, but unfortunately there were too few, so Chen Mo went to the place where the mint was found, so that she could collect ten catties of mint leaves.

Qiang Zi put the things on the pickup truck: "This time, let's use anti-radiation needles. The goods you want will be delivered in the afternoon."

Li Xiaoxiao nodded, and then Chen Mo continued to cut bamboo. She stayed to expand the farmland, and built two more groups for planting mint. When she found that the construction materials were not enough, she ran to the stream again, and she cut off the pieceThe reeds grew again, and she happily took out her scythe, and filled the empty knapsack again.

As for the fertilizer, she didn't pick up the rotten leaves, but went back to the back of the container, where she dried the reeds. She put the dried reeds into her backpack, spread the fresh reeds cut today, and continued to dry them, and then went to the compostpit, put the fertilizer inside into the rattan frame, and put the frame and fertilizer into the backpack.

The amount of fertilizer has risen from single digits to three digits again. This feeling of being full makes her feel at ease.

Li Xiaoxiao threw the chopped bamboo branches into the pit, and prepared to burn them to ashes together when there were too many, so that making fertilizer was much faster than picking rotten leaves.

She went to find soil in the open space where the materials were stored, and began to organize her backpack. She took out materials such as moso bamboo and threw them on the ground. Onion sprouts, green vegetables, and potatoes had a shelf life, and tools such as sickles continued to be placed in the backpack. After finishing the backpackMuch refreshed.

The soil on the open space needs to be received in the backpack before it can be used, which is more troublesome. When will the blueprint of the wooden box before be drawn out, put it in the wooden box, and it will be much more convenient to take it in groups.

After harvesting the soil, she started to build the farmland and planted the branched mint branches. The bent branches straightened up and became very energetic. She touched the mint seedlings, and the traffic in the future on the farm was tied to it.

Then she built another troublemaker, instead of making farmland, she planted onion sprouts on ordinary soil. She wanted to pick and eat onions every day, and didn't want them to grow old so quickly.

Li Xiaoxiao flickered in the corner of her eye. She clicked on the achievement page, and there were three achievements to be claimed at a time. They were reminders to hoard soil, fertilizer and hay to 1,000 units. This time the rewards were very rich, and she received a total of 45diamonds.

She raised her wrist to check the time. It was time to refresh. She opened the system store, hoping to find a blueprint of the wooden box, but instead of seeing the wooden box, she saw another good thing.

"Salt Wells: Capable of Stable Salt Production"

Li Xiaoxiao couldn't help but wow, she was deeply impressed by the high price of salt last time, if there is a salt well, they won't have to spend a high price to exchange it with the patrol team in the future, and they don't have to pick and choose, pickle vegetables and meat.Get up, and you can reverse the sale.

The imagination is very good, but the reality... The price of the salt well is actually ninety-nine diamonds, which is the most expensive she has seen so far.

Even though he had just entered a large sum of money, the deposit was only forty-nine, and there was still a shortfall of fifty, which was simply balding.

Why is there always not enough diamonds every time she encounters something she wants to buy? She scratched her head, turned around and ran towards the foot of the mountain, first get the diamonds that can be obtained first, such as the achievement of hoarding one hundred units of moso bamboo.

After receiving all the bamboos in her backpack, she did complete the achievement and received five diamonds. Looking at the number of bamboos, it was two hundred and thirty-four, which was far from one thousand.

She originally planned to go to the water's edge by herself, let Chen Mo continue to cut bamboo, and both sides hoarded materials together, but remembering what Chen Mo said about the accident before, she grabbed Chen Mo's arm, "Let's go, let's go to the stream."

Chen Mo didn't ask, just followed.

This made her feel very relieved.

When passing through the container, it was so good to meet Brother Bing to deliver supplies. Ten catties of mint were exchanged for two anti-radiation needles and ten grains of corn.

Even if they eat low-radiation food, the radiation in the environment will subtly affect the body, and they need regular anti-radiation injections to eliminate the damage.

Brother Bing seemed to want to say something else, but Li Xiaoxiao was anxious to earn diamonds, so he just said goodbye, and Brother Bing left with a choked face.

After arriving at the stream, Chen Mo ruled out the danger and nailed a three-meter-long mutated snake to the ground. Li Xiaoxiao watched the water splash caused by the snake's death, swallowed, thankful that she remembered Chen Mo's words.

She avoided the snake, put her hand into the water, and a steady stream of clear water was put into the backpack, one hundred units, one thousand units, two thousand units...

After completing two achievements in succession, she got twenty diamonds, but it was still far from enough.

It has been a while since Li Xiaoxiao got the system, and she knows that the number of hoarding achievements is between 100 and 1,000 units. In the next stage, she doesn't know. She originally hoped to be 2,000 units, but unfortunately it wasn't.

Three thousand is not, four thousand is not...

Her mentality became impatient, but at this time the sky was gloomy, Chen Mo and she raised their heads suddenly, and saw the sun being swallowed up and darkened little by little.

It's a total solar eclipse.

Originally, it was nothing, but the part covered by the moon was faintly red, the red moon...

Li Xiaoxiao's pupils shrank, Chen Mo picked her up and threw her on her back, and returned to the container as fast as she could. The moment she entered the door, a sharp air defense siren came from afar.

Amid such hair-numbing sirens, Chen Mo slammed the window shut and covered the entire window with a cloth. Li Xiaoxiao also got up and closed the door tightly, covering her arms, carefully avoiding the red light leaking in through the crack of the door.

Just now, she was accidentally photographed for a while, and she felt a cracking pain in the exposed skin on her body. If Chen Mo hadn't brought her back in time, the consequences would have been disastrous.

She leaned against the wall of the container away from the door, listening to the sounds outside, but she couldn't hear anything, it was quieter than at night, there were no insects, no night owls, not even the sound of the wind,It was a dead silence, as if everything had disappeared.

The only thing there is the sound of her heartbeat, as if she is the only one left in the world.

Li Xiaoxiao huddled into a ball and hugged her arms tightly. Every time the red moon fell, she spent every minute and every second like this, waiting for the dawn.

Logically speaking, the moon reflects the light of the sun. When the red moon appeared for the first time, everyone thought that the sunlight also mutated, but it didn’t. Only the moonlight would bring monsters. They guessed that there was something wrong with the moon itself.

Whenever the light of the red moon shines on the earth, it will bring a lot of radiation pollution, causing animals and plants to mutate, even if they hide underground without light, they will suffer a lot of damage every time, and the next period of time will becomeIt was extremely difficult.

And this moment is the first time they encountered Hongyue after returning to the earth.

Li Xiaoxiao touched the scar on the back of her hand, and the last scene flashed in her mind. At that time, she was transporting near the surface of the ground. After the arrival of the red moon, it was too late to leave.When it was big, its claws were as sharp as knives, and people were like paper in front of it. With a light grasp, it split into several pieces before her eyes and scattered on the ground.

The smell of blood quickly permeated, so strong that it was like swallowing fresh blood.

She was lucky, she was in the back position, and was rushed by the army before she was killed, and saved her life, but the back of her left hand was cut by the stone smashed by the cat monster, leaving scars that could not fade away.

That was the first time that Li Xiaoxiao realized that she was so small and powerless in front of the monster, even if she wanted to scratch it desperately, she couldn't do it.

She touched the scar on her left hand, and her mind was in a mess. Now that she is on the ground, and it is a sparsely populated suburb, she will face more monsters.

It doesn't mean that the number of red moons will appear less and less. This is also an opportunity for human beings to return to the ground. Why did the red moon appear not long after arriving on the ground?

Otherwise, she would not dare to become a farmer in the suburbs.

Chen Mo had already nailed the curtains. He looked around the room to make sure that there was a little red light beside the door. He saw Li Xiaoxiao's huddled figure trembling slightly.

He walked over and sat down beside her, feeling him, Li Xiaoxiao's head buried in her knees lifted a little bit, only a pair of eyes were exposed.

Chen Mo thought for a while, and still put his arm against the other party. At this time, he could feel the human body temperature, which should be much better. "Oops, the coal stove is outside."

Li Xiaoxiao moved her mouth. She wanted to complain a lot about Chen Mo's speech, but there were too many. Instead, she didn't know where to start. She whispered: "Why don't you think this is not the time to talk about this?"

Chen Mo was puzzled: "Why not?"

He said in a declarative tone: "Eating is a big deal."

Li Xiaoxiao couldn't help complaining: "It's a big deal, but... I can't save my life, so who wants to eat?"

Chen Mo: "We will not die."

His tone was so calm, with a strong certainty that one couldn't help but want to believe him.

Li Xiaoxiao's uneasiness eased, and she felt that Hongyue wasn't so scary. She approached Chen Mo and quietly laid her pillow on his shoulder. She also began to worry about food. It was still a long time before dawn, and she didn't eat lunch.The sky can bear it, but now can't bear it anymore.

It's really hard to go from luxury to frugality.

In the future, let's build a kitchen in the container. When it comes to food, don't know how much the crops she planted outside will mutate due to the red moon. It won't be so miserable that the whole ar will be wiped out.

And will the farmland be affected by the red moon?

If it is, then the forty-eight pieces of new farmland she created today are all equivalent to nothing, and they are useless at all, oh my god.

Babyface finally reminded: "You can bring more frogs, birds and other animals that eat locusts. Of course, you must check the radiation value and be careful of mutated creatures. By the way, locusts like to lay eggs in low-lying areas. You can transform these placesinto ponds, directly reducing their numbers."

"Row."

Chen Mo was doing this last night, but it's hard to say whether those frogs are still in the field.

After Li Xiaoxiao heard Babyface's words, her plan gradually took shape, she called Chen Mo to stop: "I have an idea."

"We don't grow corn anymore, we grow potatoes."

Li Xiaoxiao originally wanted to open up two groups of strawberry fields, which would ripen in turn to ensure a daily supply of strawberries, but now that the locusts have done it, planting strawberries is not an option, and the new group does not plan to grow them, and wait until the locust problem is resolved..

"It's hard to say, I'll let someone take it to the patrol camp, and you can discuss the rest yourself."

Master Zhao thought so too, otherwise he would have to come over in person every time, it would be fine for people, the problem is money, the patrol battalion exchanges resources with the city, and cars come and go every day, and they bring strawberries with them, the priceIt would be much cheaper, but he came for another purpose this time.

The old man turned his eyes around Li Xiaoxiao: "I want to talk to you about the cabbage."

Li Xiaoxiao, who promoted her own agricultural products last time, refused this time.
