Fog Survival

Secondly, bamboo rats also like to gnaw on the bamboo roots underground.

Once the bamboo roots are lost, the bamboo cannot absorb water and nutrients and will die naturally soon.

Finally, the most important thing is!

Bamboo rats live in underground caves in bamboo forests.

Therefore, under a bamboo forest, bamboo rat caves and tunnels are connected in all directions.

When bamboo rats gnaw on the bamboo roots during the process of burrowing, they will gnaw on all the bamboo roots, which will not only destroy the root system of bamboo, but also destroy the land structure of bamboo forests, making bamboo forests intolerant to drought, causing soil water loss, and causing bamboo to die due to lack of nutrients due to drought.

That is to say, not only the bamboo forest is destroyed, but also the soil.

Thinking of this, Qi Yuan was very angry.

How many rare items do you have in total?

You want to destroy two directly when you come?

Qi Yuan was very angry, and saw an even more uncomfortable scene.

The Guardian Thorn vines in the distance are transporting several tied bamboo rats here.

This shows that there are definitely a lot of bamboo rats under the bamboo forest!

Now, in the entire foggy area, the Guardian Thorns are hunting bamboo rats in all directions.

The root system of the Guardian Thorns is indeed underdeveloped, but it does not mean that their roots cannot grow.

It's just that they don't need to absorb nutrients from the soil, so they don't deliberately grow rhizomes.

However, under the unscrupulous provocation of the bamboo rats, the Guardian Thorns began to change!

Transfer plant energy to the rhizomes, improve the combat capability of the Guardian Thorns group underground, and form a big net to capture bamboo rats.

Under the sudden attack and capture of the Guardian Thorns, the bamboo rat clan was caught off guard.

A large number of underground holes were breached, and before the bamboo rats could react, they were tied up by the intruding Guardian Thorns and transported out without any resistance.

Next to the guarding thorns, the number of bamboo rats gradually increased from 7-8 to more than a dozen, and finally to more than a dozen.

Finally, it was fixed at 32.

Except for some that did not burrow, almost all the other bamboo rats were captured.

Looking at the more than 30 bamboo rats in front of him, which were as fat as pigs, Qi Yuan was very angry.

What kind of damage would such a nest of bamboo rats do to the bamboo roots of Yunxi Bamboo?

Fortunately, it was discovered in time. If it was discovered a few months later, the bamboo forest might be completely destroyed.

However, Qi Yuan suddenly thought of it.

Since bamboo rats can eat the roots of rare-level Yunxi Bamboo, their own strength must be extraordinary.

After inspection, it was found that it was true!

These 32 bamboo rats are all good-level beasts.

However, they are not beasts with ferocious nature and strong strength.

So they have good-level quality but no corresponding combat power.

When captured by the Guardian Thorn, it had no ability to resist at all.

And it was very timid.

"Good quality! Thin skin and lots of stuffing! Fat meat! Timid by nature! Not strong!" Qi Yuan muttered to himself, his eyes slowly brightening up.

This kind of bamboo rat really meets the breeding conditions!

Qi Yuan has been thinking about the breeding industry in the shelter for a long time.

He thought about raising pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens... but there were no suitable conditions.

For livestock that can be raised, they need to have the following characteristics.

The first is the quality issue.

Qi Yuan is now at the peak of the good level, and has been stuck at this level for a long time and has never been able to break through.

Therefore, he will never eat ordinary food, at least it must be good.

Secondly, it must be docile enough.

He does not have so many "beast taming scrolls" and it is impossible to tame all good livestock, so he can only tame them artificially.

If it is a ferocious predator such as a lion, tiger, wolf, snake, or leopard, it is almost impossible to be successfully domesticated in an animal pen.

Finally, the economic value must be high. It can harvest more abundant resources.

Bamboo rats meet all three conditions.

Good grade!

Gentle and timid!

Lots of meat, and can also be made into flesh and blood essence!

Thinking about it this way, how can this still be a sinful bamboo rat? Even looking at them now, they feel a little cute.

Qi Yuan looked at the bamboo rats and his eyes became softer.

After thinking it through in his mind, Qi Yuan did it as soon as he said it, and immediately began to prepare for bamboo rat breeding.

The first is the breeding place.

In the foggy area. There are still many vacant areas, so there is no need to worry about having no place to breed.

"Where should they be placed?" Qi Yuan lowered his head and thought silently.

In the current foggy area, with the shelter as the center, the direction of the stream is determined to be east-west.

To the north of the shelter is a small river that runs east-west.

To the southeast of the shelter is an acre of rare spiritual field and an acre of rare Yunxi bamboo forest.

The rest of the place is still very empty, all occupied by the guardian thorns.

After thinking about it, Qi Yuan decided to raise bamboo rats to the east of the shelter, which is the planting area.

This is because the breeding of bamboo rats and the planting of crops can be mutually beneficial.

Bamboo rat feces is a very good organic fertilizer that can replenish the spiritual energy lost in the soil and the nutrients needed for the growth of various crops.

Therefore, the bamboo rat feces cleaned up can be fermented and used as fertilizer to provide to the spiritual field next to it.

The crops next to it will produce a lot of useless plant roots, such as watermelon vines, grape vine leaves, winter wheat roots, etc.

These useless plants can serve as food for bamboo rats, but this is only a part of their food source.

If you want bamboo rats to thrive and grow in large numbers, you must pay special attention to food and living environment.

Qi Yuan began to think deeply about these two aspects.

In terms of food, in addition to plant roots and stems, you need to find more food.

Since there are bamboo rats living nearby, there is a high probability that there will be bamboo forests, or at least plants suitable for bamboo rats to eat.

Otherwise, how can we survive now?

Therefore, as long as you arrange the bee colony to go out and search, you will most likely find it.

As for the living environment.

Bamboo rats like to live in a dark, cool, quiet and dry environment.

To meet these conditions, there are two measures: underground and sawdust.

Bamboo rats still like to live in underground caves, and this does not need to be changed.

And there are guarding thorns, which can use roots and stems to form a circle underground to prevent bamboo rats from escaping.

When the rats are covered with sawdust in the burrow, they can maintain a dry living environment, which also has a certain antibacterial and cleaning effect.

After thinking it over, Qi Yuan began to make arrangements.

He ordered the guard thorns to enclose a 30-square-meter space in the east area of ​​the shelter.

The guard thorns can monitor the bamboo rats for 14 hours to prevent them from sneaking away.

Under the ground, the rhizomes of the guard thorns form a semicircular space for the bamboo rats to burrow.

In this way, the bamboo rats can be completely trapped and cannot escape the surveillance of the guard thorns.

Qi Yuan transferred all the bamboo rats to this space and let them live there.

Then, he threw dozens of wood to them.

They will chew the wood themselves, chew out a lot of soft sawdust, and then pad the burrows where they live.

This is our lifestyle.
