Fang Qingdai did not try to appease Qingzhong and his wife.
On the fifth day after arriving at the oasis, the palace complex had been cleared out. All earth and metal-type ability users were assigned to build walls, while wood-type users were tasked with clearing the mutated plants around the palace complex, which was within their activity area.
Qing Zhong is an Earth element person, and Zhang Xin is a Wood element person.
Instead of having them follow the main group to build a wall or clear away the mutated plants, Fang Qingdai led them to an open space.
"Dad, Mom, I plan to use this plot of land as an experimental field to plant the crops from my space. You both took excellent care of those crops in my space before, and I believe you can definitely handle this task!"
Fang Qingdai and Qingluan had no special skills in planting those wheat and chili peppers. They just watered them occasionally, and Qingluan would occasionally give them some nourishing power as fertilizer.
The crops were able to grow entirely due to the exceptional environment of the space and the vitality provided by the paulownia tree.
But Zhang Xin's farming is very different. She also uses wood-type abilities when watering, but she knows when to water and when to use her abilities.
The crops she planted grew much better than those of Fang Qingdai and Qingluan.
The grains are fuller, and the harvest is greater.
Under Zhang Xin's care, the crops have now yielded more than 20 kilograms of wheat seeds, more than 2 kilograms of chili seeds, and more than 100 kilograms of sunflower seeds.
I already have more than ten Isatis root seeds.
Isatis root, a medicinal herb, can be cultivated slowly in the space, and then planted outdoors once there is enough of it.
However, wheat, peppers, and sunflowers are best grown outside, since if they are grown in large quantities, there is no need to worry about concealing their origin.
So Fang Qingdai took out half of the seeds and handed them to Zhang Xin and Qing Zhong: "Your combined abilities are quite suitable for farming. You don't need to worry about other things. Just try your best to see if you can keep these crops alive."
Qingzhong and Zhang Xin solemnly accepted the seeds, and then the couple began their farming life, working from sunrise to sunset.
To be honest, the way the two of them were so engrossed in their work really did resemble that of old farmers.
After Fang Qingdai provided enough space water for their use, she made an appointment with Jing Yi to go to the White Tiger Base.
She needs to contact Mao Yun and bring back the Mao family's group of people.
Furthermore, they have many useful instruments and equipment, and they want to see if they can get them at the White Tiger Base.
After all, because of her escape, Xiao Mao and the others have been under close surveillance recently, and Fang Qingdai didn't want to trouble them too much at this time.
Their actions only make it harder for them to shake off suspicion.
However, devices for testing water, soil, and air, as well as some medical equipment, are indeed in short supply right now.
Fang Qingdai's spatial water can be used for drinking, but the amount of water needed to irrigate crops is too large.
There are many water sources in the oasis that look clear and bright, but this is wasteland. Many water sources look clean, but the harmful substances they contain are off the charts.
No one dares to use it without conducting specific tests.
In addition, there are medical devices.
There are currently no healing-type ability users at the base. Many people have been injured during these days of exploration. Although healing potions can be used, the consumption is too great.
For some non-life-threatening wounds, if medical equipment is available, team members who have received medical training can handle them.
After all, for long-term development, the large consumption of consumables such as medicines will inevitably put some pressure on the industry.
After getting ready, the oasis was handed over to Jing Yi's second-in-command and Huang Guang to manage together. Cat and Red Fox stayed behind to guard the base camp, while Fang Qingdai set off with the team, taking only Little Vine with her.
The group consisted of ten people, including Fang Qingdai, Jing Yi, and Qingluan, who insisted on going along no matter what.
After the little girl got through the initial period of being extremely dependent on her parents, she started to cling to Fang Qingdai again.
She's had quite a harvest lately, exploring the oasis with the pioneering team every day and acquiring several mutated plants of decent level and good potential.
With the plants now fully cultivated, Qingluan's overall strength has increased dramatically. Her talent is undeniable. Despite her young age, few in the team can rival her in a real fight!
It was precisely because of this that Fang Qingdai agreed to let her travel with her.
Kids need to see the world.
Especially in this wasteland, where travel is inconvenient, many people have only ever seen one base from birth to death and have never seen the outside world.
The original owner was the same.
Along the way, Fang Qingdai also enjoyed watching the endless sea of sand gradually turn into patches of white.
She was stunned. Snow falling in the desert? Is that even scientifically possible?
A few kilometers away it was still sunny and the temperature wasn't particularly high, but if you weren't afraid of getting sunburned, you could go out wearing short sleeves.
But after only a few kilometers, the temperature suddenly dropped, and patches of snow appeared on the golden sand. The closer we got to the White Tiger Base, the more the snow gradually merged into large patches!
After walking another ten kilometers or so, the thin layer of snow had accumulated to a thickness of about ten centimeters!
Fang Qingdai rummaged through her spatial storage for clothes to put on for herself and Qingluan. She then glanced at Jingyi and the others, only to find that everyone was prepared and had put on their own thick clothes.
Indeed, they had all fled to the vicinity of the White Tiger Base before, so they were naturally prepared.
The original owner had never left the base, was ignorant, and didn't know the situation at the White Tiger Base.
But Jing Yi and the others didn't know that Fang Qingdai lacked this basic common sense, nor had they mentioned it to her, which is why Fang Qingdai was somewhat shocked.
Even more shocked than Fang Qingdai was Qingluan.
The little girl had only heard Zhang Xin talk about snow, and thought it was a magical thing in fairy tales, but she never thought that one day she would see it with her own eyes!
Her mother hadn't lied to her; the snow looked so soft and fluffy, a hazy gray like the smoke rising from a burning object...
Yes, it's gray and hazy.
When you first see it, there isn't much snow accumulated, and it looks a bit white under the light. But once a lot of snow is piled up, you can see that the snow is gray, which shows that it contains a lot of impurities.
It's nowhere near as visually appealing as the cotton snow of the 21st century!
After walking for about half an hour, the sand truck could no longer move.
The snow was too deep, almost waist-deep. The melted snow was compacted and no longer as soft as before, causing the dune buggy to get stuck and unable to move forward.
After the group got out of the car, Fang Qingdai put the car into her spatial storage before asking Jing Yi, "You guys walked all the way to the White Tiger Base before?"
Jing Yi shook his head: "We robbed a group of bandits in the wilderness and stole their snowmobile."
Their dune buggies didn't even drive in; they were hidden at the border between the desert and the wasteland.
Fang Qingdai was speechless.
Robbing bandits in the wilderness—is that something a decent family would say?
But as soon as she got off the car, she felt the biting cold. Fang Qingdai didn't care about morality anymore. She just prayed that she would really encounter the wilderness bandits. Otherwise, it would take forever to walk to the White Tiger Base!
