Chapter 12 The White Lotus That Never Withers
Lan Shiruo brought Jiang Xiang and Xiao Lebao into the space. Jiang Xiang played with Xiao Lebao. Lan Shiruo took out the tools, seeds and fertilizers she had received and went to a square field in front of the broken thatched house. The land was very fertile and the soil was of good quality, so there was no need to turn it over again.
Lan Shiruo is just a layman when it comes to farming, but that doesn't stop her from growing things. In her previous life, she survived by growing only some grains and vegetables. She didn't store any food, and no one gave her food. She was always on the road of revenge, and only when she was very hungry would she enter the space to plant something.
The space is very powerful, she is so random and the production is very gratifying.
If you sow with care in this life, the harvest will surely be more gratifying.
Time and energy are limited, so I can only pick the important seeds: rice, wheat, and a few vegetables I like to eat. It's very simple: dig a small hole, drop a few seeds in, add some fertilizer, cover with soil, and water it. Done.
When there was no fertilizer, there was no need to add any. Watering was even easier: just poke upward with your finger and add the desired amount. Lan Shiruo had a strong suspicion that her water ability was born for farming.
Lan Shiruo didn’t know how others grew it, but she had always done so and had reaped the rewards.
The time in this space is the same as that outside, but the growth cycle of crops in the land is two to three times shorter than that outside. Most of them mature in only one month at most. If you plant a little every day, you may not have anything to eat in the first month, but you will have something to eat every day thereafter.
When I went to the factory in the suburbs, I also had to see the threshers, rice mills, flour grinders, and various agricultural machines. The space for planting had increased, so these were indispensable. Planting and harvesting machines were also needed. How much could she plant by digging one pit at a time?
I've never planted fruit trees before, so I don't know how long they'll grow, but I think they'll be shorter than outside. I didn't receive many saplings, so I planted them in a circle around my shabby thatched house and I'm looking forward to the results.
This work lasted for more than two hours, and Xiao Lebao and Jiang Xiang fell asleep.
I didn't disturb them. I just washed them with some water and then slept next to them.
I fell asleep very soundly after being extremely tired, without even having a single dream. If it weren't for Miaomiao's urgent call, I could have slept forever.
"Sister, come out quickly, I can't stand it anymore, someone is banging on the door."
Only Lan Shiruo could hear the noise outside. She got up in a hurry and alarmed Jiang Xiang and Xiao Lebao. She had no time to comfort the whining little guy, so she picked him up and quickly got out of the space, put away all the things, and then took out the weapons.
With a "bang", the door opened.
A group of people rushed in, and before they could figure out the situation, the three people and the mastiff were pushed into a corner.
"Quick, close the door, close the door quickly."
The crowd was not only noisy, but also smelled intoxicating. Little Lebao whimpered in his mother's arms, his little face wrinkled, indicating that he was uncomfortable.
Lan Shiruo touched the little guy's butt and found that he hadn't peed, so he might be hungry. She turned his back to the wall and fed the little guy.
Surrounded by the smell of his mother, little Lebao felt much more comfortable. He began to smack his lips and eat with big mouthfuls.
Miaomiao and Jiangxiang stood guard on the left and right to prevent others from approaching.
Nearly a hundred people came in, and it was fortunate that the warehouse was big enough, otherwise it would not have been able to accommodate them all.
After the warehouse door was closed, the corpses outside lost their target and wandered around.
The person inside breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed on the spot. Thinking of the thrilling incident just now, he was furious and pointed at Miaomiao's nose and shouted, "How can you be so cruel, little girl? So many of us almost died outside, and you refused to open the door and even blocked it with all your might. What are you thinking, huh? Tell me, what are you thinking?" The old man's finger was almost poking Miaomiao's nose. "What did your parents teach you? You are so uneducated and so cruel. People like you should be thrown out to feed the monsters."
Miaomiao laughed in anger and slapped the old man's claw away. She didn't hold back at all and broke the old man's hand directly. "How my parents taught you has nothing to do with you, but how your parents taught you has something to do with me. You have lived to such an old age and still haven't learned to speak human language and behave like human beings. You don't even know such a simple principle as not to point fingers at people. Your parents really didn't teach you how to be a human being. We came to this land first. Whether to close the door or open it is our business. I didn't blame you for breaking in, which is already very kind of me. But you are so arrogant and think you are a big shot. Don't say that this is the end of the world. Even in peacetime, I will give a slap in the face to an old guy like you who relies on his age. A hundred people can't deal with dozens of monsters with clumsy hands and feet. What's the point of living? Death is a contribution to others. Go to hell quickly. What a moral person."
"You, you, you..." The old man's claw was broken and his forehead was covered with sweat due to the pain. He wanted to fight back, but he was in pain and angry. The base of his neck turned red and he couldn't say a word.
"I, I, I'm fine. If you keep ungrateful, old man, I'll kill you." Miaomiao showed her weapon, which was stained with blood.
A group of people screamed and retreated to a safe area.
Miaomiao's face was full of contempt. If someone could be scared by just this, he really shouldn't live anymore. Living would be just waiting to die. He would hurt others and himself.
A bully who only cares about the weak and fears the strong.
A middle-aged man squeezed out of the crowd. He was tall and thin, wearing glasses and looked very gentle. The group of people respected him very much and took the initiative to make way for him.
"Someone come and help me treat my injuries," he turned to Miaomiao and said, "Don't be angry, little girl. We are really forced by the situation. Most of us are ordinary people with no ability to protect ourselves. We are old and weak, young and weak. We really can't deal with the monsters outside. I have limited ability alone, so I can only find a safe place for them to stay. I saw that this place was empty, so I brought people here. I didn't expect the monsters to follow us and came to smash the door in desperation. Of course, we were wrong in this matter. My name is Kong Fenglin. Little girl, if you need anything in the future, you can tell me and I will definitely help you. It's like repaying a debt."
Miaomiao pouted and said, "Who knows who? I need your help. You are so capable."
Lan Shiruo secretly raised her eyebrows. People who are destined to meet will always meet. This must be the bad fate. I wonder if her beloved adoptive father and his family are still in the crowd?
Little Lebao was full, so he reached out and gently patted the little guy's back.
The crowd saw the disdain on Miaomiao's face. Kong Fenglin was the god they now worshipped, and how could they tolerate being treated so lightly? "Mr. Kong, they're shameless. There's no need to be polite. She also said that this is the end of the world, whoever has the ability is the boss. We just occupy this land, so what? If you don't accept it, throw it out."
"That's right. He's so young, but he has such a vicious mind. He's a disaster if he's still alive. If he dies early, it's also a way to rid the people of harm."
"Throw it out, throw it out."
Everyone was shouting excitedly, and Kong Fenglin quickly raised his hand to signal, "Everyone, be quiet, don't attract the monster."
Everyone realized it later and shrank their necks, not daring to make a sound.
"Brother Kong, the little girl might have been frightened by the crowd. It's not easy for the two girls, so let them stay."
Lan Shiruo instantly got goosebumps all over her body. After two lifetimes, she heard her adopted sister's voice again, and she felt like vomiting from the inside out. A dog will always eat shit. In this life, past and present, she was always a white lotus that never faded.
