Chapter 214 Huge Hail
Yang Qing and Leng Yi had nothing to do at home, so they entered the space again.
During this period, she often left Aqi and Xiaoxue in the space, and Li Liang and the others didn't notice them because they were at work every day.
The two little ones have grown a lot. They have a spacious space and food, so they live very happily.
He also learned how to herd sheep. He often drove cattle and sheep to faraway places to graze, and then drove them back a few hours later. He enjoyed it very much.
"All the vegetable seeds have been planted. We need to keep some of this batch of vegetables and save them for seeds when they are older. Otherwise, there may be no place to buy seeds in the future." Yang Qing said to Leng Yi.
"Sure, save some of each and harvest the seeds when they're ripe." Leng Yi nodded and pointed to the distance, "There's still so much land over there that hasn't been planted. It's a bit of a waste."
"How about we grow some Chinese medicinal herbs?" Yang Qing suddenly thought, "I still have a lot of Chinese medicinal seeds. Time flows quickly in this space, so I can grow several years' worth of Chinese medicinal herbs in a year. They should be more effective than the natural Chinese medicinal herbs sold outside."
"Okay!" Leng Yi nodded.
Previously, I only planted Chinese herbal medicines such as Isatis root and Patchouli for treating epidemics, but this time I can plant more.
Leng Yi took out the tiller again and plowed a large piece of land next to the previous medicinal field. He planted some of the various Chinese medicinal seeds that Yang Qing had swept from his previous company, covering several acres of land.
After the seeds were planted, Yang Qing brought some spiritual spring water and mixed it with well water to water the seeds. The Chinese medicine should grow better with the nourishment of the spiritual spring water.
Suddenly Leng Yi called out, "Qingqing, come quickly and see if the ginseng has bloomed."
Ginseng blooming? Yang Qing hurried over.
It's true at first glance.
Ginseng was one of the first batch of medicinal herbs planted, but because it took a long time to grow, they were left untouched.
But it usually takes three years for ginseng to bloom. This batch of ginseng seeds has been planted for less than a year at most, right?
Is it because the flow of time in the space has accelerated, coupled with the addition of the original spiritual energy of the soil in the space, the growth cycle of ginseng has also accelerated?
Does that mean that this batch of ginseng is now equivalent to the three-year-old ginseng sold outside?
It will be harvested in one year.
Of course, the longer you plant it, the better. In a few years, you can get ginseng that is more than ten years old, which has much greater medicinal value.
"That's great!" Yang Qing was very happy. She studied Chinese herbal medicine cultivation. If she could grow these in college, her graduation thesis would have been so wonderful.
After they finished watering the Chinese herbs, Leng Yi said, "Why don't we go out for a walk this afternoon and see if there are any supplies we can find."
They haven't gone out since they came here. They can't just hide at home for a month.
All the crops and vegetables have been planted, and there seems to be nothing left to do.
"Okay, let's take a look at what Mingcheng is like. Otherwise, we won't even know we've been here when someone asks us about it." Yang Qing said with a smile.
Since Lu Lin and the others didn't come back for lunch, the two of them were too lazy to cook, so they ate fast food and then went to the management office.
They planned to get a new map of Mingcheng and surrounding cities, otherwise they would not know which way to go.
When I arrived at the management office, I found that the map here was very detailed. It not only indicated where the shopping malls, factories, mines, etc. were, but also had marks that had been scanned.
It is equivalent to a shopping map for people who go out to search for supplies, so that they don't make a wasted trip.
Leng Yi looked at the map and said, "It seems that Mingcheng has been almost completely wiped out."
"There are still things here." Leng Yi pointed to the mine.
Mingcheng's main industrial industries are steel mills and coal mines. Important materials such as steel must have been cleared out, and the same goes for the coal mines. All the coal mined should have been stored, unless it is underground.
"But we can't dig it out." Yang Qing frowned. Her space shouldn't be able to directly collect the mine, right?
Unless it is a pile of mined ore, you can probably collect it directly.
"It's okay to go and take a look. There's nothing to worry about anyway." Yang Qing said.
The two drove a pickup truck out of the base and had to cross the entire Ming City to get to the mine.
I just realized that there are still many people living in the old town.
This is a mountainous area with a relatively high altitude. There are no tsunamis and the impact of floods is not too great. People can still live here after the water recedes.
However, we also experienced an earthquake and many houses collapsed, but many houses that could withstand a magnitude 10 earthquake remained, and there were still many survivors.
Everyone didn't enter the base, probably because they didn't have points, and secondly, they probably felt they were freer outside and didn't want to be restricted by anyone.
When I passed by the government gate, I found someone distributing relief food.
It seems that the authorities have not given up on the residents who remain.
Yang Qing was happy for them.
"Why do I feel it's so hot and stuffy today?" Yang Qing pulled his collar and looked outside.
Suddenly, there were "bang, bang" sounds coming from the car, as if someone was hitting the car with stones.
"What's going on?"
Just as Yang Qing looked up to take a look, something the size of a fist fell from the sky. Leng Yi quickly turned the steering wheel to avoid it. The thing smashed through the front windshield and fell into the car.
Yang Qing looked at the thing under his feet that almost hit his head and screamed, "It's hail!"
As soon as he finished speaking, hailstones fell like raindrops one after another. Leng Yi drove the car quickly to avoid them, and the hailstones hit the car with a loud bang.
The people who received relief food were so frightened that they ran away with their heads in their hands. Some of them were still hit by the hailstones. The hailstones were so big that they hit their heads and caused them to bleed. Some people screamed, and some fell directly to the ground.
The temporary iron shed in front of the government building also collapsed, and the crowd ran desperately into the government building.
People were crowding and stepping on each other, there were curses and children crying, and it was a complete chaos.
Some people took the opportunity to grab the relief food placed nearby, and the staff's desperate shouting was of no avail.
The people outside were still trying to squeeze in. Some were holding pots on their heads, some were holding wooden boards, and some were even holding stone slabs.
Those who couldn't squeeze in picked up the things in their hands and hit the people in front of them hard, forcing them to move aside, making the scene even more chaotic.
The hailstones grew bigger and more dense, until they were as big as footballs, and people on the street who couldn't dodge in time had their heads smashed open.
The roof of Yang Qing's car was dented.
"No, we have to get out of the car and hide." Leng Yi said.
They quickly drove to the government gate and stopped the car. There were already a lot of people standing outside. There was no choice, so Yang Qing took out two frying pans from the space and put one on each of their heads, and squeezed under the eaves first.
The situation inside was getting more and more chaotic, with noises and cries filling the air.
Suddenly, a gunshot rang out and everyone fell silent.
Someone shouted with a loudspeaker, "Stand still, don't move, and watch out for the people under your feet!"
"Put down all the food you stole, or we'll shoot! Don't think we don't dare. This isn't a peaceful and prosperous time. There aren't so many rules. If you're killed, it's a waste of life!"
Everyone seemed to be frozen. Two teams of fully armed men came running over with guns in hand. Everyone moved aside and made way for them.
"Everyone move to the side, don't panic, everyone can hide."
Someone helped the person who fell up, and everyone stood close to each other, and sure enough, everyone was squeezed down.
"Comrades, I know the situation is urgent, but please don't panic..." Someone came out to comfort the crowd.
Yang Qing and Leng Yi looked at each other. Why did this voice sound familiar?
