After marrying the interstellar boss, I was taken away!

Chapter 52 Time is running out
After walking for a while, Xiao Jing suddenly said, "We're going to the city this time, let's exchange more resources, we won't be doing missions for now, you just have to practice hard at home, I'm going to go back to Fengyaoxing."

"Go back?" Qi Zhen was stunned for a moment, "You felt it too?
"I used to go on missions a lot before, and I have experience with weather changes. The enchantment in the restricted area may affect the judgment, but it is obvious now."

"Autumn...is it really coming?" This summer is too short. Calculated according to the shortest year, there should be three years, plus another year. No, half a year in autumn, there will be three and a half years, enough for her Store most of the winter supplies.No matter how calm Qi Zhen was, she was a little flustered by so much ahead of time. "You just said you want to go back to Feng Yaoxing?"

"Well, the news here is blocked, and we need to go back to find out the specific situation. This round of summer seems to be suddenly broken in the middle. The autumn is bound to be greatly shortened, and the winter may be longer. We have to make full preparations. But don't worry, there is me .” He has saved a lot of money over the years, 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. I'm running out of time, so I won't follow. And the matter of the power upgrade has not been figured out yet, so there can be no further delay."

Xiao Jing felt a little regretful, but thinking about bringing her back now, he really couldn't be with her every day, and it would definitely be uncomfortable for her to stay alone in a strange place, and he had to deal with a group of unfamiliar garrison families, plus his position Embarrassing, no matter how you think about it, you don't feel relieved. "When we have free time, ask them to get together."

"Okay. Hey, I seem to see a sandy date tree, let me down."

"I'll carry you over there!"

Once near the Jujube tree, Qi Zhen immediately jumped off Xiao Jing's back, "I'm walking around, there are quite a lot of different plants here, and there should be a lot of supplies."

"Be careful of the strange beast, let the sun be with you."

"Quack—" When did it become a guard?He was obviously an assistant before.

Qi Zhen took a general look and found that there were indeed a lot of supplies, besides sweet lettuce, there were also many wild vegetables.What surprised her the most was an aboveground river, maybe it could only be called a stream, but it was actually on the ground. "We still have a few empty buckets, and collect some water to go back by the way."

"Two, one was cleared out after watering the ground, and one was found in the basement."

"Then fill these two buckets first. I'll install the water pump, and I'll pick dates with you when I come back."

"Not urgent."

Wild sand dates are big, each about the size of a thumb, and there are as few as five or six in a bunch, and as many as twelve or thirteen. It looks like you can pick a lot.There are two trees in total. One bears yellow fruit and has many thorns on its branches. If you don’t pay attention, you will get a hole in your hand, but the other one has fewer wine-red thorns.

"It's a waste of time to pick them one by one. The dates are so ripe that they fall off when you touch them, and you have to pick up the ones on the ground." Qi Zhen thought for a while, found the bed sheet from the bracelet, and directed Dahua and The sun spreads under the tree together. "Xiao Jing, go up the tree and shake the branches."

Xiao Jing immediately climbed up the tree, shaking and stomping his feet, and the dates fell on the bed sheet like rain.Small twigs and leaves also fell together. It doesn't look very clean but it saves a lot of effort. Just go home and pick it up slowly.

When the dates covered the bed sheet, Qi Zhen grabbed the four corners of the sheet and lifted it into the basket, then continued.The two jujube trees were harvested in less than an hour, and there were five baskets in total, which was an absolute bumper harvest.As soon as she was happy, she left all the sandy dates hanging on the tree and those scattered on the ground to the sun and Dahua as snacks, but they were very happy.

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

She first found a piece of wild beans, a medium-level nutritional ingredient, but because no one picked them for a long time, the beans were very old, some of them were barely edible, and their nutrition dropped a lot, and the other part could only be kept as seeds.Only the top is still a little tender.Qi Zhen picked them all, and she was not willing to throw any away. Anyway, she had no bean seeds, and it happened that the land at home was empty, so she tried to plant some.

Although the germination rate of wild ones is not high, there are too many seeds, and they are all picked for nothing.The price of nutritious seeds above the intermediate level in the dungeon is not low, and they are sometimes out of stock. If you want to buy it, you have to trust your relationship or try your luck. Anyway, it is quite troublesome.

Huh?That's... potatoes?Qi Zhen grabbed a potato seedling and looked at it carefully, barely matching the number in memory.All of a sudden, she burst out laughing with a 'puchi', what was she trying to do, she just couldn't dig it out.She took out the shovel and dug down at some distance, and the second shovel dug out a round and dusty potato, the size of a fist, but she had a little bit of precision and peeled off a piece.

Qi Zhen felt distressed for a while, and hurriedly put away the shovel and replaced it with a shovel.Sandy soil is easy to dig, but digging a few more shovels is better than digging badly.Potato seedlings can't keep up with the nutrition, the fruit is small, the size of a fist is considered big, there are only two or three in one plant, and there are almost a series of ping pong balls left, which are so well-proportioned, it looks very annoying.She dug them all to the extent that one basket was big and half of the baskets were small.

After that, I didn’t come across any mid-level nutritious vegetables. They were all low-level ones, such as cabbage, leeks, taro, etc. There were quite a lot of them, but the quantity was too small, and some were barely enough for a meal.

In the afternoon, Qi Zhen finally found a corn field.Although it is also a medium-level nutritious food, it can't stand the food and is full.It's just that she doesn't like food made of corn very much.When it was tender, she was more than happy to cook it, or bake it.

But it was visibly aged and the kernels on the cob were hard and dry.Apart from grinding it into flour and steaming steamed buns, or making porridge with some corn balls and millet, Qi Zhen couldn't think of any other way to eat it.It's okay for her to eat once in a while, but she can't stand eating every day.

Don't be a pity if it's just like that, at worst, go back and give Sun and Dahua extra meals, maybe Dahua is well nourished with an egg a day.

It was almost evening before the family finished their work, and hurried home in the dark.

Time was running out, and the two of them got busy as soon as the sun came out the next day.The adobe in the yard has been dried in the sun, and the sheep pen and chicken coop are being built tightly.In order to prevent the warm roll from being crushed by the heavy snow in winter, Xiao Jing spent some time building the foundation.The stones buried in the foundation are ready-made, and they brought back some of them after digging.Although there is no cement, the mud of the earthworm can make up for it.

Qi Zhen handed over the adobe, 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 erected in the afternoon.There are still a lot of rafters left from the last time the tent was built, which can just be used as beams.

It's been more than half of the day since the warm roll was covered.Qi Zhen can sort things out slowly, but the isolation stone... Xiao Jing wants to build the cellar with isolation stones before leaving.Just how to stick to the wall is a problem. The first consideration is mud, but unexpectedly it is not sticky enough.

"There is only vegetable glue at home, I'm afraid it's not as good as mud." Qi Zhen gestured a few times against the wall with an insulating stone, "Maybe we don't need to assemble everything directly, these insulating stones themselves contain energy. Together, they form a whole. Adding mud or glue will affect the energy flow-it's done! I only put together three pieces and connected them together."

"Awesome!" Xiao Jing patted the insulating stone on the wall, "It's solid, very strong, as if it should be built here."

"It's amazing!" Qi Zhen couldn't help touching it again, feeling incredible.

"It means we used it correctly."

"Hurry up and go to bed early, and go to the dungeon tomorrow."

"Ah."
