Chapter 26 Planting potatoes and digging the soil
Nanxing returned to the farm with some of the things he had collected, and killed a zombie with a hoe.
Fortunately, no one saw her hoeing the zombie to death with a hideous look on her face, smashing the zombie's entire head to pieces.
The largest thing she was holding was the corpse of a zombie.
She planned to use the zombies she had killed to form a circle around the farm and see if she could make the zombies avoid the area.
Throwing the zombie on the ground, Nanxing used the key to open the door and returned to the house.
She needed to treat the wound on her hand. Although it was minor, she still couldn't be careless in such a place.
If she had to say what the most generous gain she got from following those players on this trip, apart from the space, the thing that made her happiest was the 18-inch first aid kit.
It is filled with commonly used medical resources for first aid, such as iodine-containing bandages, wound dressings, gauze, etc.
(The hostess will post a separate chapter if she has the materials, and will update it in real time)
Nanxing used the little water left over from drinking in the morning to wash the palms of her hands, applied iodine with a cotton swab, and wrapped them with a bandage.
It might be a bit exaggerated, but Nanxing thought it was better to be cautious, after all, the skin was broken and bleeding.
Next, Nanxing plans to purify the collected water first.
After all, it has been placed in the forest for so many days, and the materials for water purification are ready.
Charcoal, grass and moss, sand, small stones, and the medical cotton balls in the first aid kit.
Cut a mineral water bottle in half and a simple water purification device can be quickly made.
From the bottom layer upwards, there are cotton balls, grass, moss, charcoal, sand and small stones.
After doing all this, Nanxing put it aside for the time being. After the water is purified, she can make some pancakes with it, and add a little tomato and cheese sausage, which is delicious.
Speaking of which, Nanxing’s previous experiment failed. The plants placed in the space did not grow, but they did not die either.
Now she has placed the tomato seedlings on the balcony, as well as that unknown grass.
She also specially wrapped the balcony with cloth to seal it up so that you couldn't see what was on the balcony from the outside.
Nanxing stuffed a candy into his mouth, hummed a little tune, and went outside to get some hay.
The farm doesn't have much of anything, but it has a lot of hay.
Nanxing sat on a chair, lit the hay with a lighter, and then started cutting potatoes.
This is also the method she learned on the video platform.
She originally worked in a second-tier city. Small office workers like her usually have a pastoral dream.
Unfortunately, I live in the city and cannot go out to the countryside. I usually like to watch some videos about rural life such as planting, breeding and cooking.
The potatoes in her hand were relatively small, so she cut them into three or two pieces, wrapped them in wood ash, and planted them with the sprouts facing downwards.
If she has the conditions, she will spread some fertilizer, but if she doesn’t have the conditions, she won’t.
Carrying the cut potatoes, Nanxing came to the small enclosed balcony on the second floor, poured all the soil in the shopping cart, and picked out the small stones inside.
Only a thin layer.
Nanxing stared at the soil that was less than one centimeter thick. It was definitely impossible to grow potatoes in this soil.
She needed to go to the forest again, where there was space, and bring back more soil.
It's a pity that she didn't have enough seeds, otherwise it would be a good idea to use the elderly room on the first floor with the best orientation for planting.
She didn't dare to plant things outside. First, it would attract attention. If a player or NPC saw it, it would be terrible.
The second is zombies. Zombies will randomly spawn in the farm. If you damage them a little, you won’t even have a place to cry.
Nanxing pulled two sheets from the room where she never slept and brought her wheelchair and stroller.
She planned to do it all at once and fill that room with soil. Although she couldn't plant everything there, she could plant some tomatoes first.
Seven tomatoes should be able to produce quite a few sprouts.
When going downstairs, Nanxing added some more water to the water purifier, locked the door and went to the forest.
Time passed quickly, and when she went out again it was already past one in the afternoon, almost two.
It would be nice if I could get a bicycle.
Nanxing shook his head and came to a place with very dense leaves. The soil here should be more fertile.
"That's over there..." Nanxing narrowed her eyes, she seemed to see a fruit tree.
It is also full of fruits.
Nanxing put down his tools, walked closer and looked up.
"It's apricots!" Her eyes lit up. She actually found a fruit tree that had already started to bear fruit.
However, it is a pity that it has just started to bear fruit, and it will take some time before the fruits mature.
I guess I have to wait for one or two months.
“Squeak, squeak, squeak—”
A familiar voice came from above. Nanxing looked up and saw that it was the little squirrel he had seen before. This time, there was a little macaque following it.
Two little animals were standing on the tree, looking at Nanxing curiously.
"Monkeys and squirrels, this place must be rich in resources."
As long as you have a pair of eyes that are good at discovering, at least you will not lack food and drink.
Nanxing relaxed a lot. As far as the current situation was concerned, it would not be difficult to survive.
If you don't encounter any players.
Nanxing opened two candies and placed them under the tree, hoping to please the macaque and squirrel. Once they got familiar with each other, maybe he could find where they hid their food.
If possible, she would like to have a dog.
Although food expenses will increase, safety will be better guaranteed.
Nanxing has a neutral feeling towards animals. He doesn't particularly like them nor does he particularly dislike them. He wants to keep a dog because they are useful, and he also feels that trying to please macaques and squirrels is useful.
The macaques and squirrels did not move and were still staring at Nanxing in the tree. Nanxing ignored them and took out a pen and paper to start drawing a simple map.
From the farm to the forest, birch stands and newly discovered apricot trees were marked and recorded on the map.
"The cabin should also be noted. By the way, I haven't been to the cabin yet. I have to go there tomorrow." Nanxing muttered to himself and drew a house pattern on the map.
She really hoped to find some useful herbs, such as Noda Shichi.
Noda seven is very effective in stopping bleeding. It likes to grow in front of and behind houses. It is not found on farms, so you can only try your luck near the cabin.
Nanxing closed the diary with a snap, picked up the hoe and started working.
There was not much time left, and it would be dark soon. She had to get back to the farm before dark.
Tomorrow we will start reinforcing the house and its surroundings.
Waving his sore arms, Nanxing couldn't help but sigh, feeling so tired.
Rural life is not so easy either.
I don’t know when, the two candies under the tree were taken away by the little monkey and the little squirrel.
The two of them licked the candies while watching Nanxing work hard.
…
It was not until the sun began to set that the forest began to look a little strange, with all kinds of rustling noises being heard. Only then did Nanxing return to the farm with a space, a car, and a wheelchair full of fertile soil and rotten leaves.
