"Have all the people on the island left?"
Old Li followed Zhan Zeye and Tang Qiyue, frowning as he looked at the volcanic ash all over the island.
Zhan Zeye hummed.
It is obvious that this island is no longer habitable due to the volcanic ash, and the people on the island must move away.
"What do you think that is?"
He pointed to a big tree for them to see.
Tang Qiuyue looked in the direction of Old Li's finger and gasped.
The big tree was full of corpses. Judging from how dry the corpses were, they had been there for a long time and were not hung there recently.
Because it was covered in volcanic ash, it wasn't that scary.
Zhan Zeye and Old Li were both soldiers and were not afraid of these things at all. They went over to take a closer look.
"This should be the method of burial alive on this island!"
People in many places have their own unique burial methods. For example, people in fishing villages like sea burials, believing that returning to the arms of the goddess of the sea is the best destination.
People on this island apparently prefer to hang kites on trees.
As long as it wasn't a massacre, Tang Qiyue thought it was fine. After all, it was their culture. She couldn't understand it, but she could choose to respect it.
Without even thinking about burying the person, they walked around the big tree and headed towards the crater.
Zhan Zeye was afraid that Tang Qiyue would fall. After all, due to the volcanic eruption, many roads on the island were destroyed and were now bumpy.
He held Tang Qiyue's hand and simply held her slender waist from behind to ensure that nothing would happen to her. Old Li next to them clicked his tongue but did not tease them.
Safety first at this time.
The three of them arrived at the crater. The volcano had stopped erupting, but the crater still gave people a very terrifying atmosphere.
That is the wonder of nature, which is not something ordinary humans can resist.
"This island has been elevated quite a bit due to the volcanic eruption!"
Zhan Zeye sighed, and Tang Qiyue also saw it, but most of the vegetation on the island had been destroyed and the ecology was completely broken. It was unknown how many years it would take to recover.
They traveled around many places and confirmed that there were no humans on the island. They probably all knew that this place was no longer suitable for human habitation. Fortunately, there were not many indigenous people on this island.
"What are your plans next?"
Old Li took out his pipe and started smoking.
Zhan Zeye knew what he wanted to ask, so he didn't beat around the bush and directly stated his opinion: "This island is not a special location. It can be used as a training ground for those soldiers in the future. There is no need to arrange for people to live there!"
This is the best.
Old Li looked at the volcanic ash and said, "Such good fertilizer is wasted!"
Tang Qiyue also thought that volcanic ash was a good thing, and because of volcanic eruptions, some special substances might be formed, which would be worth a thorough investigation.
In any case, this is not something they need to consider.
The volcanic eruption around the island also destroyed the surrounding coral reefs, and the sea fish temporarily left. Tang Qiyue didn't find any treasures, so she took a walk with Zhan Zeye and went back.
After returning home, Tang Qiuyue took a shower first, after all, her body was still covered with a lot of volcanic ash.
After cleaning up, the two of them cooked and ate. Tang Qiyue had already told Uncle Wang that he would not be going to get food today, so there was no need to leave any food for them separately.
Since she was cooking for herself, Tang Qiuyue took the easy way out and just made egg and vegetable pancakes. Zhan Zeye had no objection as he liked to eat anything anyway.
It was when he went to pick up the eggs that he realized something was wrong.
"Are our chickens and ducks laying too many eggs?"
Zhan Zeye looked at the basket of eggs, and then looked at Tang Qiuyue's extravagant use of eggs. She got eight eggs in one breath and cracked them all.
Even if he didn't know the prices, he knew that eggs were a good thing. Why did it seem like Tang Qiyue didn't care at all about this?
The key point is that these were not bought back from trade, but were laid by the chickens and ducks she raised at home.
"Well, I feed them something so they can lay more eggs."
It’s not that Tang Qiyue didn’t want to tell him about the fertility pills, but she was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to explain such a thing once she told him.
If she and Zhan Zeye have a child in the future, is it because of the effect of the fertility pills or her little tricks?
Whatever the reason, it's not a good thing.
Zhan Zeye didn't care much about this matter, but watched Tang Qiyue cook.
Even eight eggs were not enough for him. Fortunately, Tang Qiuyue also made some egg sauce. He could just wash a lot of vegetables from the vegetable garden and eat them with the sauce.
After the two of them finished their meal, Tang Qiyue didn't want to move, so she read in her room. Zhan Zeye still had to go to the barracks. "I might not come back to sleep at night, so you don't have to wait for me. If I come back, I'll open the door and come in!"
After giving a few instructions, Zhan Zeye left for the military camp.
Tang Qiuyue didn't feel much about it. Anyway, she was fine with sleeping alone.
It was a dreamless night and Zhan Zeye did not come back.
The weather was still very hot after the fall. The vegetable seedlings in Tang Qiuyue's yard had been replaced by everyone, so she made use of the empty space.
The vegetables in the yard are enough to last another two months. She is not in a hurry to plant new seedlings, but is thinking about whether to plant some fruit trees, such as grapes or kiwis, which can bear a lot of fruit.
It’s definitely too late to eat it this year, but that doesn’t mean you can’t eat it next year.
She eventually decided to grow grapes, mainly because she likes to eat them.
Instead of choosing to buy outside, I searched on the system. The mutated grape vines not only have a high yield, but also have strong survival ability.
After planting the grape vines, I prepared to go to the cornfield and get some fresh corn to cook.
"Girl, do you have any high-yield rice here?"
Old Qin strolled over with his hands behind his back and blocked Tang Qiyue at the door.
Tang Qiuyue did not change her itinerary and simply took Old Qin to her own cornfield.
"You've been craving rice?"
This side of the island is in the north, and the main supply is flour. There is not much rice. Even if rice is supplied, it is mostly used to make porridge.
Old Qin nodded. He was not embarrassed at all.
Tang Qiuyue could exchange some rice seeds. If they were planted this season, they could be harvested before the cold winter came. Moreover, the yield of the mutated rice was particularly high. If it weren't for the radiation, it might be enough to feed everyone in the end times.
However, she couldn't just take it out right now: "I can plant some after the corn is harvested, but the rice seeds I have are a bit special, and it might be hard to explain their origins later!"
Old Qin waved his hand and said, "What's the big deal? Just say it was made by our research institute. No one will really investigate where it came from anyway!"
Tang Qiyue's eyes lit up. How could she forget that this person's identity was the most mysterious.
"But don't be too scary. Let me know in advance so I can..."
Before he finished speaking, he looked at the cornfield in front of him, and his eyes widened.
