Farming in the Beast World: Awakening Wood Powers

Chapter 73 She finally found it.

When he got there, what Xia Lan saw was not rice seedlings, but a forest two meters high.The soil moisture here is higher than in ordinary mountain forests, which may depend on its location in the mountain col.

The fruitful forest made Xia Lan look very happy, even if it wasn't rice, it might be some other food.

Before approaching, she picked a fruit that looked to be about as tall as an orange tree.The leaves are half a meter long with pointed ends, like the leaves of rice seedlings, but larger.

The shape of this fruit looks like a walnut, but is longer in shape.Xia Lan asked Cheng Hao to break the shell, and then revealed a long white fruit, half a finger long.Each fruit has seven to eight seeds.

Xia Lan broke a grain into pieces and took a bite in her mouth. She was immediately surprised: "Oh, this is the taste of rice!"

With a more pure rice aroma, Xia Lan thinks these rice grains are definitely delicious food worth bringing back!

"Witch doctor, look here, this seems to be the food you are looking for."

An orc flew to the other corner and found some fruit particles in the puddle, so he quickly called "Xia Lan".

Cheng Hao brought Xia Lan over and saw the clump of rice seedlings.Xia Lan couldn't help but be overjoyed and said: "Mi! What good luck it is now, great luck."

It's like going out to look for food on a sunny day and not only finding rice seedlings, but also a special kind of rice.

Xia Lan looked at the wild rice tree. It looked similar to the one she had seen in her previous life, only taller and larger.

As for the taste, Xia Lan took one and tasted it. Well, it was pretty good.

Xia Lan looked at the clump of rice seedlings and was very excited.Finally, she found the staple.

Come, put these ears of rice in the animal skin bag.Forget it, I'll do it.

You don't need to do it, I'll do it.Cheng Hao took out an animal skin bag from the basket and handed it to her, then took out a bone knife, cut off the rice ears and seedlings in bundles, and put them into the animal skin bag.

Xia Lan is so rare that every particle on the ground needs to be picked up.

After Cheng Hao cut the piece, they also put three animal skin bags inside.

This is not much.

But Xia Lan is also satisfied, it is better than not finding it.If these are used as seeds, you can eat a good chunk next year.

Witch doctor, this thing is not as delicious as the white fruit on that tree, at least it is bigger.
Don't worry, you'll fall in love with these particles in the future

However, the fruits from these trees also require walking.Xia Lan asked everyone to use baskets to pick fruits.After picking three carts of grain, he asked three orcs to pick them up first, and then asked them to come back with the armored cubs.He also instructs them to bring back a dozen winged orcs to help deliver food.

Cheng Hao was arranged by Xia Lan to take some skilled orcs around to find suitable bamboo to weave more baskets.

Although there is not much rice, the rice on this tree is quite abundant.

Xia Lan estimated that if they were dismantled, there would still be more than ten loads of food left.

She's not just thinking about picking the fruit, but also transplanting it.

She plans to transplant eight saplings back to the Lingye tribe first, so they have a place at home to grow rice.As for planting tree rice, it is much easier.There may be no problem if you plant some seedlings at the foot of the mountain and water them regularly to avoid water shortage.

She knew how to germinate and sow rice, but for the first time she saw how to increase the number of tree rice herself.this is a problem.

The host and many saplings on the ground should be the descendants of these tree rice plants.If you don't dig them up and plant them, please
Xia Lan carefully looked at the seedlings in the weeds under her feet, and indeed found many seedlings of tree rice.She quickly dug them out with a wooden shovel.

Lin Lin rummaged through the entire forest and dug out dozens of saplings.

Full of sense of accomplishment.

Qinghe Dashan, who stood by her side to protect her, had already picked many trees and rice when she was digging seedlings, and the several animal skin bags she brought were also full.Witch doctor, why are you digging this sapling?Dashan asked curiously.

Xia Lan said happily: "Take it back and plant it. When we grow up, we may grow grains like these rice trees. If we succeed, we won't have to travel so far to harvest rice in the future."
Grow it yourself
that's right!So are those rice plants.Grow them yourself and you will love them in the future.It’s even more delicious when eaten with meat

Dashan doesn't quite believe this, he thinks eating meat is better.

Just this thing, he also took a sip.It really has no taste, why not eat those sour fruits?

Xia Lan also knows what they are thinking, so they won't want to talk nonsense.Once they have rice, they will know its benefits.

Huh, this is the food that everyone on the planet loves.

After finding the main food, Xia Lan also settled a lot.Let's go pick something that might be cotton in a few weeks.

If the cotton is put away and chatted, they won't have to worry too much this winter.

Although I haven't been to that place yet, my intuition told Xia Lan that it should be the beast version of cotton.

Xia Lan, do you think these baskets are enough?
In order to transport trees, rice and fruits, Cheng Hao brought several orcs in the afternoon and made several pairs of new baskets.As for carrying poles and other items, Xia Lan's saplings and bamboos could not be found nearby, so they directly cut down large branches to use as carrying poles to carry the baskets.

Xia Lan looked at the baskets they brought back stupidly and counted, there were about twenty baskets.

Oh my god, my boyfriend is amazing!

In the afternoon, I took people to weave so many baskets.

I think it's almost done.Never mind the basket for now.Pick the trees and rice first. When they come back, you can return to the tribe as soon as possible.
Ok
Cheng Hao continued to pick trees, rice, and fruits with everyone.

Xia Lan wandered around and discovered two kinds of fresh wild vegetables, Artemisia annua and Malan.

These two wild vegetables are common in autumn and are more common in humid mountains, forests and swamps.The young leaves can be eaten as vegetables.

Cold dishes can be used to stir-fry soup, and they also have the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying.Eating them is good for your body.

When Artemisia annua matures, the seeds can be collected and sown the following year.

So, when Xia Lan saw these willow-leaf mugworts, he wanted to transplant half of them home for planting, eat some of the young leaves, and then plant them for autumn harvest and seed collection.

Witch doctor, should I eat this too?Dashan looked at him with a bitter look on his face. He felt that the biggest disadvantage of following the witch doctor was eating those wild grasses, aha, they were wild vegetables.

All the witch doctors can eat are wild vegetables, not weeds.

But he still loves meat!
Of course, Xia Lan knew that these carnivores did not like to eat vegetarian food, but a combination of meat and vegetables was necessary.

After all, they are all orcs.Because they can transform into humans, their bodies need care and maintenance just like humans.

It’s okay to eat a lot of meat, but it’s important to pair it with vegetables and pay attention to balanced nutrition.

As you grow these wild vegetables, they become more and more delicious.Are you tired of eating meat?

I'm not tired at all.I've been eating meat
Before, you still ate raw meat.Now that I've cooked the meat, you don't need to eat it anymore
Uh……

Isn't that delicious?Can wild vegetables compare to meat?

Qing glanced at him and said: "Dashan, don't bother the witch doctor to find ingredients. Go pick trees, rice and fruits."

Boss, I'm not lazy, I'm picking
I just wanted to chat with the witch doctor. I was surprised and curious.
