Chapter 305 Chapter 307 Plants in the Misty Space
While the two children were taking a medicinal bath, Rong Xianxian checked the plants planted in the misty space.
The small tree that was there when the foggy space was first formed is still the same as before. The two hawthorn trees are full of red hawthorn berries. The six or seven ice crystal trees transplanted in the cave are already as tall as calves.
There are many medicinal herbs planted in the medicine field, sparsely and intertwined, and growing well. Some of the medicinal materials needed for the children's medicinal bath are taken from here.
The two sprouted potatoes that Rong Xianxian planted some time ago have already sprouted and are now blooming.
Generally, when the potato seedlings bloom, potatoes begin to form underground, and it will probably not take long before they can be harvested.
Some time ago, Rong Xianxian found a few sprouted potatoes among the stored supplies. The potatoes had turned black and shriveled, and it seemed that they had no chance of survival.
Looking at the withered, thin and underdeveloped potato sprouts, Rong Xianxian planted them in the foggy space without giving up.
After all, as a girl who grew up in the countryside, Rong Xianxian had a certain understanding of the growing environment of common crops. She remembered that potatoes seemed to be suitable for growing in sandy soil.
Rong Xianxian specifically found an area with larger soil particles in the space and tentatively planted these potatoes in the foggy space. Every few days, she would use river water in the space to irrigate the plants. Although this river water did not have the magical effect of cleansing the meridians and changing the marrow, it could obviously increase the survival rate of plants and promote plant growth. If she was not afraid that frequent watering would soak the potatoes, she would have wanted to water them every day.
Potatoes are a crop with strong adaptability, high survival rate and very large output. When Rong Xianxian saw these potatoes, she remembered that she had stored a lot of ketchup in her space. Before the end of the world, although French fries, as fried food, were listed as unhealthy food, people still couldn't resist their love for it. When the potatoes grow more, she will often fry some French fries for the children. It may be a good snack. Xuanxuan used to like French fries very much.
In addition, braised pork with potatoes, spicy and sour shredded potatoes, milky mashed potatoes, and three fresh vegetables made with eggplant and peppers are all Rong Xianxian's favorite dishes.
Not far from this patch of potato seedlings, there is a patch of sweet potato vines. These sweet potato vines are growing well and look vibrant.
Previously, when Rong Xianxian was wandering around the county town near Taijingan District, she found some sprouting sweet potatoes in a warehouse. These sweet potato vines were grown from those sprouting sweet potatoes.
Next to the sweet potato vines are planted several other vegetables such as cherry tomatoes, peppers, Chinese cabbage, tomatoes, etc. Of course, because they have just been planted, some of these vegetables are still small seedlings, and some have not even sprouted yet. If the names of the vegetables are not marked, you can't tell what these vegetables are just by looking at these small seedlings.
When Rong Xianxian stayed in the Taijingan Safety Zone, she saw fresh vegetables at the official exchange, including tender tomatoes, thorny cucumbers, lush green spinach, fresh potatoes, sweet potatoes, and purple eggplants. Of course, the prices were very expensive.
The current season is the peak season for the growth of fruits and vegetables. It stands to reason that as long as the seeds are sown, there will be a harvest, and the output should be considerable. However, in reality, due to the advent of the end of the world and monsters running rampant, the army has been rescuing civilians, building safe zones, clearing monsters, and performing various tasks, which has wasted a lot of time. Up to this point, the various engineering facilities in the safe zones have not been completed. These infrastructure projects have occupied a large amount of labor, and coupled with the dense population in the safe zones, there is not much arable land available, resulting in a very small planting area for these fruits and vegetables. They are only supplied to the troops and are hardly seen in the outside market.
Wild vegetables and fruits can also supplement vitamins, and their nutritional content is definitely not worse than artificially grown ones. However, in terms of taste, their quality is not as stable as artificially grown vegetables. So when Rong Xianxian learned that the land in the foggy space could be used to grow crops, she not only planted many medicinal herbs, but also collected a lot of fruit and vegetable seeds.
These vegetables cannot be taken out now. If they know about the storage space, then they will know about it. But the domain stone fog space where they can grow vegetables must not be known to anyone else.
By the time they arrive in the capital, the social order there will have been restored earlier, and the living environment and various supporting facilities will certainly be more complete. There will definitely be vegetables for sale in the market there, and then Rong Xianxian will not arouse suspicion when she takes them out.
"Hey, Kaikai, why are you tossing and turning? It's like you're making a pancake!" Wang Qirui and Xia Kai slept in the same tent, and Xia Kai's tossing and turning disturbed his sleep.
"It's okay, I'll fall asleep in a while!" Xia Kai said irritably as he pulled the quilt over his head.
"Kaikai, I know what you are thinking. You have not been able to break through the Spirit Induction Realm until now. This has always been a concern for you. What's more, now even Xuanxuan and Xiaoluo have advanced. You must be feeling bad, right?" Wang Qirui leaned close to Xia Kai and whispered.
"Stop talking. I'm not talented and I'm holding everyone back. But, I've tried my best, but I'm still just a little short of success." Xia Kai said dejectedly.
"Have you ever thought about asking Sister Rong for a pot of potion made by Xiao Luo and the others? Maybe you can advance by doing so." Wang Qirui said in a low voice.
When Xia Kai heard this, his face immediately turned red, as if someone had guessed his thoughts.
Xiao Luo and Xuan Xuan didn't practice much on weekdays. Besides, children have a shorter attention span and spend much less time practicing than adults. Rong Xianxian never forced them to practice. Even if they had good aptitude, it was impossible for them to break through in such a short time.
Everyone was speculating that the medicinal bath that Rong Xianxian prepared for the children was the main reason for their advancement in realm.
"That's for children. How can adults use it?" Xia Kai asked in a self-persuasion way.
"We are all human beings, why can't we use it? It's just like taking medicine. Children take less than adults. It's probably because the medicinal materials are more precious or rare. Sister Rong will of course give priority to her own children. Now that Xuanxuan and Xiaoluo have been promoted, you are the only one in our team who is still in the Spirit Induction Realm. Otherwise, go and beg her tomorrow." Wang Qirui suggested with a gleam in his eyes.
Xia Kai sighed deeply, "If this potion is only for children, wouldn't it be causing trouble for Sister Rong if I went to look for her like this?"
After being together for such a long time, Wang Qirui could see clearly what was bothering him. Xia Kai also understood Wang Qirui, of course. Wang Qirui was obviously also very coveting the medicinal bath. He instigated him to talk to Sister Rong about this matter, but he only saw that he had a more urgent need for that method.
