Chapter 61: Divination

Standing on a high slope, looking at the subordinates who were harvesting in the wheat field in the distance, there was a faint smile in Chang Le's eyes.

"Can it really reach [-] catties per mu?" Li Ying, who was standing beside him, still couldn't believe the figure she had just heard.

"Sister Le, it's a conservative estimate given by the expert after testing." Li Donglai said.

"Finally I can eat fresh food." Xiao Yu said happily beside her.

Recently, because there is no professional storage warehouse, the grain they store has deteriorated to some extent, and there is always a musty smell when they eat it.

"By the way, have the grain depots been built yet?" Chang Lejing asked Li Donglai as soon as Xiaoyu said.

"It's almost there. If it wasn't for the heavy rain a few days ago, it should have been built long ago." Li Donglai patiently explained from the side: "According to the doctor's research, there was a kind of Bacteria that have never been found not only have a strong corrosion effect on metals, but also cause mildew in food crops. It is precisely because of this that newly-built granaries have to be temporarily converted into sealed aseptic warehouses, and we are now The manpower in this area is very scarce, otherwise it would not waste so much time."

Chang Le nodded and said, "Come on, let's go to the reservoir."

The reservoir Chang Le mentioned refers to the Lala Lake Reservoir on the west side of the base, which has now been renamed No. 200 Reservoir.Reservoir No. 30 is Nanmachang Reservoir.When Changle first occupied the No. [-] reservoir, it was just a pocket-sized reservoir less than [-] meters long and [-] meters wide. It can only be described as a fish pond.

However, according to the survivors they rescued from here, when the reservoir was built, it was much larger than it is now, at least ten times larger than it is now.It's just that there has been less rainfall in recent years, and a small river that originally flowed into the reservoir has almost dried up, which makes the area of ​​the reservoir smaller and smaller.

The half-month-long rainfall since the end of May caused the water storage capacity of this reservoir to increase significantly. Later, in order to prevent the water from overflowing the embankment and flooding the surrounding farmland, Chang Le led a group of men and spent a lot of time It was only with great strength that the gate of the reservoir was opened, and the water in the reservoir area was released into other areas of the original reservoir that had been dry for many years.

Judging from the four sluices of this reservoir that have been abandoned for many years, it should be that as the reservoir gradually shrinks, new sluices have to be rebuilt to ensure that the water in the reservoir will not dry up.Now with this rainfall, the reservoir has re-formed a small reservoir with a total area of ​​more than one square kilometer and an average depth of more than two meters.

A few days ago, when the sluice gate of the reservoir was opened, a lot of fish were brought out of the water from the reservoir and entered the new reservoir flood area.Later, as the rain stopped, some small water bubbles formed due to evaporation in some places with relatively high terrain, which made some big fish trapped and could not get out. As a result, Chang Le's men captured dozens of two Thirty catties of big fish.

If it hadn't been for the sudden rainstorm ten days ago, which caused the water storage in the reservoir area to rise sharply, maybe more fish could be caught.

With the continuous rainfall during this period, the small river that had been drained into the reservoir has now regained its vitality. Although the flow rate is not very large, it can continuously inject water into the reservoir.It's just that because of the short recovery time, no fish have appeared in this small river, which is only about three meters wide and half a meter deep.

Chang Le and the others are walking along the small river at this moment, walking towards the reservoir without haste.I don’t know if it’s because of the end of the world, but there are many plants that have never been seen growing on the grass on both sides of the river. Due to the arrival of summer, many colorful flowers bloom.

A single small flower may not look very beautiful, but there are wild flowers blooming everywhere, forming a sea of ​​flowers, but it gives people a feeling of being in a fairyland.

But don't underestimate these little flowers here, there are also dangers hidden in them.Some time ago, the people who farmed here often had inexplicable illnesses, and some even got bitten by snakes. Although they were not fatal, a serious illness was inevitable.

Later, after research by the researchers of the research institute, it was discovered that all the culprits, including those who were bitten by snakes, were actually injured by these newly emerged mutated plants.After urgent research, a cleanup operation was specially launched against these mutated plants, focusing on eliminating several plants that were harmful to the human body.

However, these mutated plants that may cause harm to the human body belonged to the most common vegetation before the end of the world, and it was almost impossible to eradicate them, so the final cleaning operation did not achieve the expected purpose.However, the research institute later specially produced pictures and posted them inside the entire base to prevent people in the base from being harmed inadvertently.

Later, the farmers here accidentally discovered that anyone who has been injured by these plants will become immune to them and will not cause secondary damage.Therefore, those who have not been injured will take the initiative to contact these plants one after another, so that they can develop immunity.After all, you will have to work in the farmland frequently in the future. Rather than being accidentally injured in the future, it is better to develop immunity during the slack period so as not to reduce labor during the busy period.

The people in the base are all survivors who were rescued by Changle from all over the place bit by bit. They have all experienced the unforgettable moment of waiting to die, so they all have a deep gratitude to Changle, and also I have deeply experienced the difficulty of surviving in the last days, so everyone is willing to give their abilities sincerely to repay Chang Le and those who rescued them.

Although Xiaoyu looked like a female war god when she was fighting, she was still a teenage girl after all, so when she came to this sea of ​​flowers, she immediately showed her innocent and romantic side, smiling happily Running back and forth in the sea of ​​flowers, like a cute elf.Well, of course, it's just in terms of mentality. After all, there has never been an elf with a height of more than 1.8 meters and a strong body like a strong man in the myth book.

Seeing Xiao Yu so happy, Chang Le and the others had happy smiles on their faces.

After running enough, Xiao Yu squatted down to collect the small flowers on the ground, and when she gathered them into a large bunch, she handed them to Li Ying.Then he turned around to collect again, and handed the large bouquet of flowers to Chang Le's hands.When Chang Le took the bouquet of flowers, Xiao Yu's face turned red with embarrassment, and then ran away quickly.

At this time, Li Ying glanced at Chang Le carefully up and down with strange eyes, and Chang Le was a little baffled.Holding the flowers in his hands, he sized himself up, and after finding nothing wrong, he turned to Li Donglai beside him for help.

After Li Donglai smiled mysteriously, he said in a low voice: "Xiaoyu is already a big girl, reaching the age of first love."

After hearing this, Chang Le couldn't help being taken aback, and then said, "No way? She's only fifteen."

Li Ying gave Chang Le a white look, and said, "Fifteen is still young! You haven't read the reports before the end of the world, and now elementary school students are starting to fall in love."

"That's not what it is." Chang Le defended with a guilty conscience. "I'm old enough to be her father. How can a young girl who is just starting to fall in love fall in love with a half-grown old man."

"That's not sure, maybe it's some bad old man who deliberately guided underage girls!" Li Ying gave Chang Le a hard look again.

Chang Le had a feeling of flying snow in June, but he was very rational and did not continue to defend.According to the experience summed up during this period of dating, once a woman decides on something, it is absolutely impossible for nine cows to change her mind.

"Dongzi, do you think the sky will change these two days? Why am I always uneasy?" Chang Le went to ask Li Donglai out of words.

Li Donglai originally didn't want to intervene in the quarrel between Chang Le and his wife, but Chang Le had already asked, so it was hard for him not to speak.After sneaking a glance at Li Ying and finding that she didn't seem to want to entangle Xiao Yu's matter, she replied: "I don't think there will be rain."

When Chang Le was about to say something more, Xiaoyu not far away suddenly let out an exclamation, and then the three of Chang Le saw her jumping up from the ground, shaking her right arm non-stop, while Where is the cry.

When the three hurried over, they found that Xiaoyu's index finger seemed to be bitten by something, and it was rapidly swollen at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Seeing this, Chang Le immediately pulled out a dagger from her waist, grabbed Xiao Yu's right hand, and was about to bleed her to drive away the poison, but Li Ying stopped her if she didn't want to. "It's okay, I feel that this will not only do no harm to Xiaoyu, but may actually be beneficial."

Hearing what Li Ying said, Chang Le was immediately relieved.Just three days ago, Li Ying successfully evolved for the third time, and the special ability she possesses is very special. It is a kind of telepathy, which can sense whether there is danger or something else, but it is vague and not very clear.

This special ability was named prophecy by Chang Le.Although this feeling is very vague and cannot be concreted at all, the general feeling is not wrong.So when she said she was fine, she should really be fine.
