    "Hey, the ground is cracked."

    That night Li Dong organized a group of people to go into the mountain to see if there were any leaks in the mountain.

    The feng shui of Hou'an Village is very good. Before the catastrophe came, the products were abundant, and the rainfall here was abundant. Coupled with the abundant underground water system, the soil felt very fertile and moist.

    But now, the vegetation has withered, and the surface of the earth has been exposed to dry and cracked lines. Just take a piece of soil in the palm of your hand, it is as hard as a stone, and it will turn into sand when you squeeze it hard. There is no moisture at all.  .  How can such soil grow crops?

    "This elm tree was already one meter thick when I was a child, and now it is impossible for three or four people to hug it. I originally thought that this tree could live for at least hundreds of thousands of years, but now it seems mysterious."

    The speaker was an old hunter in the village. Jiang Liu looked in the direction of his finger. Because of the light problem at night, he even used a flashlight to shine in the direction the old hunter was pointing.

    I saw that it was an extremely tall and strong old tree, but unfortunately it became dying due to the sun exposure and lack of water.  Originally, because most of the dense elm leaves had fallen off, the few elm leaves hanging on the branches also looked extremely withered and yellow.

    Not only is this elm tree in poor condition, but most of the trees in the forest are dead or dying. As for the shrubs and grasses, they are the first ones to be sun-dried. When you step on those withered grasses, you can only hear rustling  The crackling sound of moose.

    "Pheasant, here are pheasants!"

    Hearing an exclamation from the front, Jiang Liu and others rushed over.

    "It's been dead for a long time, and it's all dried up in the sun."

    I saw two dead pheasants on the ground. Their bodies had already been hardened by the sun, and they felt like stones. These pheasants probably died after starving for a long time. There was almost no meat on their bodies.  The dried meat sticks to the bones, like a skeleton.

    "Do you think this dead pheasant can still be eaten?"

    The person who found the two pheasants asked, swallowing.

    In fact, every household still hides some unfinished bacon and bacon, but those good things are simply reluctant to eat now, and occasionally cutting a few slices of meat as thin as cicada wings to stir-fry is just to add some flavor to the dishes.  Most of the meat will go into the child's stomach.

    Everyone's greedy for meat, so when they saw these two pheasants, their eyes almost glowed red.

    "Should be able to eat it?"

    Everyone is not sure, after all, I have never eaten such pheasant chicken, what if there are some germs, after all, no one knows how long this pheasant has been dead, and whether it will cause problems.

    "Would you like to let the stray dogs taste it first?"

    The people of Hou'an Village really love dogs, and since the calamity came, everyone needs more spiritual sustenance. The incense in the dog temple in the village is getting better and better. Even if they are very hungry, the villagers dare not kill their dogs.  eat dog meat.

    It is said that offending the dog god will be punished by the gods. Now they respect the dog god, and the dog god will protect them in the future, but if they anger the dog god, there is no guarantee that the sun in the sky will become the next day when they wake up.  There are four.

    Of course, most of these pious people are old people and young people in the village, especially those who have gone out to study and don¡¯t believe the old people¡¯s legends about dog gods. In their opinion, when people can¡¯t survive  , What is a dog?

    Therefore, when that person proposed to use the stray dogs in the village as experimental products, no one spoke out to stop them.

    Jiang Liu didn't join their conversation, his gaze was attracted by the faint greenness coming from the inside of a dead tree with a hollow in the center. If he read it correctly, it seemed to be a young seedling that had just sprouted.

    Although I don't know what kind of plant that seedling is, it is a miracle that a seedling sprouted in such a dry grass environment.

    Jiang Liu didn't dare to say anything, because there were too many people present, he was afraid that the seedling would draw out the time, so he made a dead tree with a hollow center while other people's attention was on the two pheasants.  Cover up, ready to choose an appropriate time to transplant this seedling¡ª¡ª

    The villagers quickly went down the mountain with the game they picked up. They processed the game, and then fed the meatless heads to several stray dogs in the village.

    The vitality of these wild dogs is also really tenacious. It has been nearly two months since the mutation started, and they are still alive and well, but they are a little thinner, and their hair is sparse due to exposure to the sun, just like mangy dogs.

    These wild dogs devoured the wild game fed to them by the villagers, because they still retained the closeness they once had. After eating the game, the stray dogs kissed each other.Rubbing the villagers who were feeding them, there was a comfortable snoring sound in their throats, so the villagers who used them as test subjects were a little ashamed, their cheeks were hot, and they originally wanted to wait for these wild dogs to starve to death before sharing the dog meat  Also faded.

    "It seems to be fine."

    After several hours of observation, the stray dogs who ate the wild game, whether it was sun-dried or starved to death, did not show symptoms of discomfort. The villagers who found the pheasant were excited.

    Game can be eaten = there is still a lot of meat on the mountain = they have a huge mineral deposit.

    Whether it's greedy for meat, or wanting to save more supplies for the family, the villagers rushed to the back of the mountain as if they were overwhelmed, and whenever they found dried game, they hid it at home.

    Li Dong was very disturbed, because the stray dogs in the village were still alive, which meant that the animals on the mountain might not all have died. You must know that there were wolves and blind bears in the deep mountains of Hou'an Village, but those animals would not come from here.  Come out of the mountains.

    But now it¡¯s different. The herbivores in the mountains have no food. When the herbivores die in large numbers, the carnivores will continue to expand because they don¡¯t have enough food sources. Now it¡¯s easy to go into the mountains without thinking  Something went wrong.

    Besides, everyone has gone to the mountains, what about the safety of the village?

    It's a pity that the interests are touching, and Li Dong's words are not easy to use at this moment. What makes him even more anxious is that his stupid son Dashang's obedience and indifference.  Game went.

    Li Dong intends to scold his stupid son, but the stupid son has gained a lot from going to the mountains. With the keen sense of smell of the dog and grandson, he brought home a lot of dried sparrow hares.  Stupid son, and in turn scolded him for looking forward and backward, without foresight.

    Anyway, because of the wild game, the village's original patrol defense weakened a lot, and many night patrol members who were supposed to be on duty also sneaked up the mountain. Li Dong couldn't stop them, but was blamed for dragging everyone's hind legs.

    Perhaps because he was heartbroken, Li Dong simply let go, and he waited for these people to come and apologize to him and beg for mercy when there was a big mess.

    However, this is also an extremely angry idea. If possible, Li Dong certainly hopes that bad things will not happen.

    Of course, there are also smart people in the village. These people did not follow the trend blindly. Instead, they were more vigilant when the villagers ran up the mountain in a hurry¡ª¡ª

    At this moment, Jiang Liu was staying in the cellar of the Jiang family.

    The cellar of the Jiang family was empty except for the jars of salt left by Mrs. Jiang, and Jiang Liu was doing experiments at this time.

    He also went up the mountain a few days ago, but he was not looking for dried game, but for plants that germinated in harsh environments.

    Heaven pays off, during these days, Jiang Liu found four live seedlings in total.

    He marked one of them and left it in place, and he transplanted the other in the yard, and he kept the remaining two in the cellar. For comparison, Jiang Liu also sowed some vegetable seeds in the cellar.  , water them on time.

    This is also Jiang Liu's unintentional idea. Because of the strong sunlight, plants cannot grow outdoors, but if the plants are planted underground, the temperature is moderate, and occasionally a mirror is used to refract some sunlight. Is it possible for plants to grow normally in this environment?  .

    Of course, it is impossible to dig a large cellar with the strength of the people in the village. After all, this is a construction project, but if the method of growing plants in the cellar is feasible, at least some vegetables and sweet potatoes can be grown in the small cellars of every household.  food source.

    Because he hadn't tried it, Jiang Liu didn't tell other people in the village what he thought immediately. He planned to wait for his experiment to be successful before telling everyone the news.

    However, Jiang Liu was not the first person to think of this method. At this time, an underground planting plan called Underground Spring had already started experimenting in a secret institution in the capital.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
