Two companies were dispatched and stationed in the urban area to maintain order. It is expected that there will be a unified explanation of this matter soon.

The transaction between her and the patrol battalion was temporarily carried out by Qiang Zi, and the salt, apples and mint leaves would be handed over to him to take back, but the people who came every day changed, and nothing else changed.

The roads from the farm to various places are almost paved. She doesn’t need bluestone slabs for the time being, but she can’t think of what she wants right now, sweet potato noodles.Waste, food still has to be brought out for circulation so that more people can eat it.

Want to stockpile building materials?

But she hasn't gotten any new blueprints recently, and she feels that it's okay to stock up on materials. It's better to buy them later, anyway, it won't be a few days too late.

Qiang Zi lamented: "Originally the wine brewed in the honeycomb is very nourishing, but the radiation value is too high."

Li Xiaoxiao made a note of this, the honeycomb can make wine, so why not make wine.

The rest were the corpses of mutant wasps. Because the patrol battalion used spray guns to attack, the corpses of wasps were charred and incomplete, but it didn't matter if they were used to feed fat. There were also fat bee pupae and wasp larvae inside.

"This thing is rich in nutrition. If you have any functional poultry in the future, you can feed it."

Li Xiaoxiao imagined that her half-sized chickens would be fed by grasshoppers every day, dreaming of feeding a functional mutation.

After washing the dishes, Chen Mo came out and stood next to Li Xiaoxiao for a while. When she saw her eyebrows raised, she knew what was bothering her, and said, "I want bamboo."

"bamboo?"

Chen Mo: "The bamboo tube is as thick as the wrist. I plan to divert water from the stream to get tap water."

Li Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, tap water, can she take a shower in the future?She has been thinking about taking a shower for a long time. If she gets a solar water heater, will she be able to take a hot shower before winter?

She wished she could put on her wings and build a waterwheel: "Buy, buy, buy, I want a bamboo tube with a thick wrist!"

Qiang Zi looked at the two couples, with Chen Mo's handsome and masculine face, it seemed that Chen Mo was taken over by a rich woman. Damn it, he wanted to call the rich woman hungry, "Okay, I understand."

Qian Sen was still moving things from the back bucket, this time it was very miscellaneous, and it had nothing to do with Hornet, it was all on Li Xiaoxiao's list.

"You're right, what's missing, tell me tomorrow, let's go, there are a lot of things."

Li Xiaoxiao started to pack her things. She put the honeycomb fragments into her backpack first, and then stored them in a wooden box. The ground was half empty immediately, and the rest of the sundries were packed up in the same way. The gauze net was put aside first, and the wire filter hit theVents in the basement.

Finally, there was no need to plug the hole with cloth, half of it was blocked. In the past two days, she felt that the second floor was quite stuffy, that is, it was raining, otherwise she really couldn't bear it.

But this barbed wire is so thin, it’s only a little thicker than paper. Rats in the wild are very powerful, and some are mutated by the influence of the red moon. Such a thin iron filter will not be bitten.

She grabbed the iron filter and broke it, but it didn't move. It wasn't bent like she imagined. There was a hard sound when she flicked her fingers on it. The patrol battalion was quite reliable.

Li Xiaoxiao installed the iron filter, and suddenly thought of something: "Brother Mo, if you really use bamboo tubes to drink water from the stream as tap water, there will be things in the stream swimming over."

She thought about her experience of being attacked last time. It was not a big thing. If it came along the bamboo tube, such as getting out of the shower head, it would be too dangerous. If it doesn't die, it will leave a lifetime of psychological shadow.Dare to touch the shower again.

Chen Mo: "So we need to install several more layers of filters in the middle."

Li Xiaoxiao knew that he was busy, so she waved him to leave quickly.

Qiang Zi sat in the driver's seat, lowered the car window and said to her: "Xingfu should hold a farewell party for the martyrs for Lao He and the others, send you a post, and come to attend when the time comes."

Li Xiaoxiao turned her head abruptly, Qiang Zi had already left in the pickup.

Farewell party.

She inhaled, there should be a farewell party.

He came to Li Xiaoxiao and sat down next to her, and said in detail next to her: "I also plan to install a big bucket near my home. The stream water will be stored in the bucket first, and then sent to the home after treatment. Do you have anything to add?"

Use a bucket as a cache instead of using stream water directly?

Li Xiaoxiao thinks this idea is great, even if a mutant beast breaks through several layers of filters and comes here, they can't directly enter the wooden house to attack people, as long as they stay in the bucket, Hao Hao should be able to find out, "I think your method is very good, if it must be added, then make two more buckets, and I don’t believe there are mutant beasts running away after this switch.”

Chen Mo: "OK."

She asked again: "However, waterwheels are built in places with fast-moving water. Our creek is quite gentle. Can we make waterwheels?"

It was so smooth that it washed out of the water.

Chen Mo: "Yes, there is a ten-meter drop in the valley, and I plan to build it there."

That's right, she forgot about the valley. Although she often went downstream, the stream passed through the valley.

Li Xiaoxiao thinks about it, and thinks there is no problem. The rest will be discovered during construction. Anyway, she must use tap water, otherwise this winter will really be difficult. It is too troublesome to boil hot water every time she takes a bath.Well, I didn't want to take a bath in the cold weather, and I didn't want to take a bath with so many things to do.

Little Boss, this title is strange, and Li Xiaoxiao likes it very much, "Well, you get one point for each pool, if there are still larvae, you can rest and feed them when there are no more. When the gauze net arrives, you can use this in the futurenet."

Master Li put down the wooden barrel and poured water from the wooden barrels one by one along the pool. The larvae he picked up from old clothes were all here. If it wasn’t for fear of dying tadpoles and not eating them, he didn’t even need to bring the wooden barrels.

"That can't be done. There are so many tadpoles that can be eaten. I ran twice in the morning, and they ate up all the larvae I caught, so I dumped them in now and there are still some left."

After he finished pouring, he ran over to pick up the gauze and looked through it. It was thinner than old clothes, and it was more convenient for catching larvae: "This is good, this is good."

As he spoke, he prepared to enter the dense forest again.

Li Xiaoxiao had already told him to rest, so she stopped calling him a second time and ran to the edge of the pool to check.

These bullfrogs have been eaten by locusts all the time, and all of them have big arms and round waists. When they jump up and land on the ground, they make a bang sound. They are much bigger than when they first came here.Food is delivered to their mouths, and their two generations grow together in the same house, plus the snail cubs who work hard on algae, they are thriving.

Thousands of mouths fell on others, and she felt relieved all at once. There is nothing to harvest in the farmland today. The crops are just planted and not yet mature, so all they need to do is water them.

If the typhoon hadn't passed and the rain had stopped, she wouldn't even have to hand over the water.

After watering the water, she planned to make the silkworm frame. The Copper Patrol Battalion brought her the silkworm. Her baby silkworm can sleep on the silkworm frame today. She felt that the rattan frame she made was a bit stuffy., the bottom is not breathable enough.

Li Xiaoxiao first burned all the mutated wasp carcasses she got, and got a lot of ashes. She planned to wait for the residual heat to dissipate, and divide them into six parts to water the mulberry and apple trees.

If they are not washed, they will soon smell bad due to their labor intensity.

While they were sitting and chatting, a man emerged from the dense forest with a small wooden barrel on his back. It was Master Li. He had already followed what Li Xiaoxiao said, and started fishing for larvae to feed the tadpoles.

She waved at people: "Have Master Li eaten?"

The figure looked at her: "I've eaten, I've eaten, the little boss is awake?"

She picked some fresh mulberry leaves. This time, she chose not new leaves, but green leaves that had grown for a while but were still fully grown.

When she came to the negative floor, she smelled the smell of mulberry leaves inside. She lifted the morning glory cloth and found that the mulberry leaves were eaten up. The hungry silkworms were crawling on the remaining leaf stalks.The more parts turn white, it looks much better than the black one just hatched, and the patterns on the surface also come out.

She threw fresh mulberry leaves on it, and after a while, she heard the rustling of silkworms.

It's kind of cured.

Li Xiaoxiao clicked on the blueprint that had been hoarded for a long time.

Each bamboo frame has a diameter of one meter, which is very large and can accommodate many silkworms.

At least she doesn't need so many now, just one. Li Xiaoxiao transferred the silkworms from the old rattan frame to the new bamboo frame, and spread out the mulberry leaves as much as possible.

Although the silkworm frame is obviously made of wood and copper ore, not to mention that there is no copper in the final product, the material used for the bamboo frame is inexplicably changed into bamboo strips. The baby silkworms like the new environment very much.The sound is stronger than before.

Li Xiaoxiao checked the old rattan frame and made sure there were no silkworms on it, so she took the rattan frame out to wash it, collected the silkworm excrement on it to dry in the sun, and kept it for later use.

When she passed by the farmland, she felt that something was wrong, so she stepped back and took another look. She actually found that the potatoes were ripe?

True or not, she put down the vine frame and came to the potato field to check. This is the fastest growing of all her crops, but it was severely persecuted by locusts, and the growth slowed down. It is impossible at this timeWhen it was ripe, she left for a while, not a day, it was not long after watering, and the water stains on the soil were not dry yet.

"Name: Silkworm Frame"

"Effect 1: Increase silk production by ten percent"

"Material: 25 units of wood + 5 units of copper ore"

This time, the materials were all ready, and the button to build appeared. She clicked on Build, and a shelf as tall as a man appeared near the rattan frame.There are gaps in the space and it is very breathable.

But the potatoes in the field are all breaking through the soil.

Li Xiaoxiao decided to pull out a plant to have a look, and she was sure that the soil that had been bounced by potatoes was really ripe.

But what's going on.

Chapter 42

With doubts, Li Xiaoxiao harvested this group of potatoes, and then inspected them carefully, but found nothing unusual.

Bullfrogs, puddles of water, grasshoppers hiding behind leaves, all the same as before, not the cause of the premature ripening of the potatoes.

She straightened her body, this farmland group was the top one, only the left, right and bottom were adjacent to the farmland, she observed the other three, the left field was planted with onions, in fact, the ten fields were planted with immature onesCarrots, strawberries are planted on the right, and soybeans are planted below.

The layout was the same as before, and she couldn't figure out what made the potatoes grow faster.

Li Xiaoxiao also has another piece of land where potatoes are planted, but at the bottom, far away, that piece of potato is not yet mature, even at the stage of flowering.

Li Xiaoxiao didn't think he was a disappointment, and continued to ask: "What should I do next, is it powdered?"

Chen Mo: "Yes."

Li Xiaoxiao enthusiastically poured the soybeans into the groove of the stone mortar.

Chen Mo waited for her hands to be removed, and then hit the soybeans in the mortar with a stone hammer. Every time he struck, the soybeans in the middle were smashed into slag, and the surrounding soybeans jumped up. Li Xiaoxiao was on the side to help him adjust., Move the soybeans that are about to jump out to the middle, and after repeated several times, no soybeans will jump up, and they will all be smashed into slag.

This job has no technical content, it's all physical work. She and Chen Mo take turns to come here, but most of the time it's still Chen Mo who swings the hammer. When all the soybeans are ground into bean powder, the two of them are also sweating.

Chen Mo wiped off the sweat left on the corners of his lips with his thumb, leaving a little water mark: "After the waterwheel is built, we will build a mill."

Li Xiaoxiao was taken aback for a moment, yes, the original function of the waterwheel is not only to divert water, but also to be a mill. Her thinking was opened, so can she think of a way to automatically water the farmland, so that she can save her from three times a day?Rescued from the watering mission?

She was already bored.

Li Xiaoxiao thought about the future, and then came to the kitchen with Brother Mo and a basket of soybean flour. She had already boiled an iron pot of boiling water, and there was a wooden basin in the pot, and her soybean flour was poured into a narrow mouth.In a wooden barrel, it is placed on an upside-down wooden barrel, and it is heated through water.

That is to say, the newly built kitchen has a stove, otherwise the coal stove is too small to steam soybean flour at all.

The two baskets of soybean flour are steamed four times, and the steamed soybean flour is squeezed, and oil will flow out.

Li Xiaoxiao looked at the wooden barrel and wondered, "Why don't you just steam it first and then grind it into powder? The cooked beans are softer, so they should be easier to grind, right?"

Chen Mo thought: "What you said makes sense, but the steps given by the patrol battalion are to fight first and then steam."

He added: "When it is cooked and then smashed, the oil will come out directly."

It seems so, it seems that can't be lazy.

Li Xiaoxiao found out the manual juice press, which is used to press fruit to extract juice, it is only about the size of a palm, shaped like a funnel, with a handle on it, and a spout on the side for pouring juice, which can be squeezed at a timeThe soybean oil is very limited, but there is no way, the tools are so big, they can only make do with it.

Why is this block special?

She stood there thinking for a minute, but she still couldn't determine the reason, so she just let it go and did other things. Anyway, good developments let it go, and there are still too few clues that can be grasped now. After a long time, she will be able toTake your time to guess.

The most important thing is that she wants to press soybean oil with Brother Mo today, because the grinding tool stone pestle she wants has arrived, and it is in the pile of things sent by the patrol camp.

Li Xiaoxiao brought back the soybean stalks that had been drying in the drying yard. Although they had only been in the sun for one day, the summer sun was so fierce that the soybean stalks were dry and crisp.Crack open to reveal the round soybeans inside.

Li Xiaoxiao held her breath and didn't dare to move. Birds are very sensitive and timid. She was afraid of scaring this elf away.

The light is too dark, the feather color of this red-billed bird cannot be seen clearly, only the white at the tip of the wings can be seen when it spreads its wings and flies alternately, like dancing butterflies, it is unbelievably beautiful, especially the longThe tail is like a ribbon.

The time of waiting for someone is very boring, with such a beautiful little thing to accompany, watching it comb the feathers on its back, listening to the crisp chirping, the boring time becomes more interesting.

"Crack."

The door behind him was opened, and Chen Mo walked out. Li Xiaoxiao hurriedly made a booing gesture, but it was too late. The red-billed bird was frightened and ran away. Chen Mo stared sideways at the dark sky: "Blue magpie?"

Can Brother Mo see such blackness?

Li Xiaoxiao asked the people sitting beside her: "Brother Mo, do you know this kind of bird?"

Chen Mo hummed: "I have encountered it before, it is a very aggressive bird, do you want to drive it away?"

She likes that what Chen Mo asks is to drive away, not to kill. She doesn't like killing for no reason, even if it seems a bit funny in the current environment.

Maybe it is because I have experienced death deeply that I know the value of life.

"No, it hasn't mutated." Mutant creatures don't have such gorgeous feathers, and the farmland is guarded by troublemakers, so they are not afraid of being harmed by cardinals. "If you want to stay, you can keep it."

Chen Mo: "You think differently from everyone else."

If other people heard the word aggressive, even if the cardinal didn't mutate, they wouldn't keep this ferocious bird by their side. What if it mutated?

Li Xiaoxiao understood what Chen Mo meant, "Maybe I have a big heart?"

She doesn't think it's necessary, let alone whether the cardinal will mutate. If she is worried about the cardinal, then the nearby trees, grasses or shrubs, small reptiles, various insects and living things in the soil, and even the crops she grows are allDon't you have to worry about mutation?

That would be too tiring to live, and besides, birds belong to the type that is not easy to mutate.

Although Chen Mo is reticent, he will answer and respond to whatever she asks, and he is the best listener. The two chat unimportantly, and the time passes quickly.

Footsteps sounded in the dense forest, Li Xiaoxiao waved: "Are you back?"

The patrol members responded one after another: "Well, I'm back."

"Are you still awake?"

"Xiao Xiao, there are quite a lot of mutated creatures near your farm, and our bullets are all empty."

"Tch, don't listen to his nonsense, you're pretty good, there's a farm nearby that's more than enough, killed more than 20 waves of mutated creatures in a day, and the farmer was so scared that he wanted to go back to the base, and he packed his bags overnightHey."

"Hey, I don't know how many people were scared out of their wits this time."

"Look at it, it's not bad to be scared, and it's not bad luck to be missing arms and legs. The worst thing is that you want to be scared, and you won't be able to get scared.
