On the tenth year of the natural disaster, I went to farm with me

Kuang Qingwei walked out of the territory on the snow that was above his calves, and followed the tire marks left by the patrol car on the passage, heading towards the South Thorn Gate next to the No. 5 Territory sign.

Why go through the south gate? Because Territory No. 9 has been cleared, and it is more convenient to go through the south gate than the north gate.

"Brother Kuang!"

Just as Kuang Qingwei was about to walk in, he heard someone calling him. He turned around and saw that it was Shi Zhong and Yue Haiying. He quickly waved and greeted them, "Brother Yue, Brother Shi, you are here too."

Yue Haiying nodded, and Shi Zhong asked, "Brother Kuang, is Xueqing almost done?"

"We only cleared the snow around the greenhouse and at home." Kuang Qingwei waited for them to catch up, and the three of them entered Territory No. 5 together. They stomped the snow off their protective clothing and shoes on the cleared passage, and said with a smile, "Qi Ge is still very efficient. Look at how cleared this road is. It can even accommodate large trucks."

Qi Fu, who was clearing the snow, came over with a smile.

"Xia Qing is here."

Yue Haiying heard the sound of the tiller, turned around, walked out of the weed wall and looked outside. He saw Xia Qing driving the tiller and bringing Zhao Ze towards him.

Zhao Ze, who was hitchhiking with Xia Qing, saw that everyone had arrived and immediately waved to say hello.

Zhou Xun, hiding inside the weed wall of Territory No. 2, muttered quietly, "Xia Qing, Zhao Ze, Qi Fu, Kuang Qingwei, Shi Zhong, Yue Haiying, what are these six people doing together? Aren't the walls already fenced off?"

"Xia Qing, drive directly to the door of our house." Before the tiller stopped at the No. 5 territory sign, Qi Fu shouted at Xia Qing, asking her to drive directly in. Everyone knew that Xia Qing was not well yet, and they were afraid that she would get tired or be attacked by the evolved snow springtails in the snow.

The evolved snow springtail is a very magical creature. Its body length is between 0.5 cm and 1.5 cm. Its color is the same as the snow. It moves quickly by jumping in or on the snow to find food and suitable habitats.

Although evolved snow springtails cannot bite through field protective clothing, they can accurately detect holes in the clothing and drill into the clothing to spread a variety of bacteria and viruses.

Xia Qing had just parked the car outside Qi Fu's house when she heard Tang Huai's hoarse voice on the intercom, "Did everyone hear about it? Hui Base 1 and Hui Base 6 were both attacked by a beast tide."

The deadly snow in winter is different from the deadly rain in the previous three seasons.

After a heavy rain, under sufficient sunlight, as the rainwater seeps into the soil, excess harmful elements that have not yet been absorbed by plant roots will evaporate with the water vapor and enter the atmospheric circulation again.

After the snow falls, the harmful elements melted in the snow and cover the soil layer together with the snow, slowly and long-term affecting the plants, seeds and even animals in the soil.

After the snow, the animals hiding in the caves cannot find water sources, so they can only replenish water by eating the snow. Excessive amounts of nitrates accumulate in the animals' bodies, which can easily cause them to lose control.

Therefore, December after the heavy snow is the peak period for beast tides.

"Ah?!" Zhao Ze panicked when he heard about the beast tide, "Is Brother Luo at Huiliu Base now? Are they okay?"

Xia Qing replied calmly, "Brother Luo and his men are well-equipped. As long as it's not a particularly large-scale beast tide, there will be no problem."

It has been the tenth year since the natural disaster, and humans have gained experience in dealing with beast tides. As long as they are adequately prepared, there will not be large numbers of casualties.

In the Lord Channel, Tang Huai was still muttering, "Not only Hui Yi and Hui Liu, a large beast tide is forming in the eastern part of our base's safe zone."

In Territory No. 4, Zhao's mother asked, "Is the scale of the beast tide large? Will we be affected?" Tang Huai replied, "It depends on the battle plan of the safe zone. In principle, no. Captain Yang, why don't you rush back to protect the safe zone?"

Unable to hear Yang Jin's answer, Yuan Yan started asking about Xia Qing's physical condition.

"It's no big deal." Today is the sixth day that Xia Qing has been taking the Yi element stimulating liquid, and the pain in his body has been reduced to a negligible level.

"That's good. You fainted outside the No. 7 territory sign that day and almost scared me to death." Yuan Yan still has lingering fears when she thinks of the scene that day.

Zhao Ze exclaimed, "Sister Xia Qing fainted? On the day of the beast tide?"

Xia Qing replied, "I fainted from exhaustion."

Yue Haiying came over and asked, "You took the Yi element stimulating liquid, right? How much of your combat power has been restored now?"

"Sixty percent."

After taking the stimulating liquid for the sixth day, you can recover 60% of your combat power and move freely. It seems that Zhang San's Yi element stimulating liquid is indeed well-deserved. Of course, this is also related to Xia Qing's high Yi element python meat. Yue Haiying nodded, "Pay attention to rest these days."

"The stimulating liquid is really powerful. The story of how the girl killed an adult evolved wild boar with one punch that night and killed three wild boars with two moves has spread everywhere." Kuang Qingwei admired and envied Xia Qing.

Xia Qing smiled bitterly, "It's all thanks to the medicine. If it weren't for my good luck, I wouldn't have had help from people from Territory No. 7 and the Azure Dragon Team."

At this time, Tan Junjie issued a notice, "My Lords, the beast tide caused by the snow in the east of Huisan Base has been confirmed not to affect the northern territory of the safe zone. Please feel free to clear the snow in your territory."

Hearing that the beast tide would not come, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Qi Fu asked everyone to sit down and talk, and Yuan Yan came over with a kettle to pour tea.

The small daisies floating in the bowl are wild yellow-light plants that Yuan Yan discovered in her territory.

Shi Zhong asked, "There aren't many evolved animals on our side of Mount 49, and Mount 50 was mostly cleared out by the poison gas bombs a few days ago. I don't think there will be a beast tide this winter. Qing, why did you gather everyone together?"

After Yuan Yan sat down, Xia Qing began to explain the purpose of convening this alliance meeting. "Today there are mainly four things to do. The first thing, I believe everyone has already known it through Brother Qi: our alliance has added a new member - the third brother of Territory No. 7. However, he is busy with things over there, so he cannot attend the alliance meeting."

Everybody was grinning from ear to ear; they never dreamed that one day they would be able to become allies with the big boss Zhang San.

"The second thing is: Third Brother has applied to the territory to list Hill No. 50 as a pollution control experimental area. No one is allowed to enter without permission. After the Hill No. 50 is set on fire, I will be responsible for the daily management of Hill No. 50."

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked.

Qi Fu, who knew something about the situation, immediately asked, "How many years will the test area be off-limits?"

Xia Qing smiled, "It's tentatively set at five years. If Third Brother thinks it's necessary, it can be extended indefinitely. As the manager of Mountain No. 50, I need to assist Third Brother in managing the experimental area and completing the experimental projects. As a reward, I have the right to collect and distribute all the resources in the mountain area."

Extended indefinitely... Qi Fu and Yuan Yan's eyes lit up and they smiled with relief.

Zhao Ze asked, "Sister, how big is Mount 50? I looked from a distance and it seems that the peak of Mount 50 is higher than that of Mount 49." (End of this chapter)
