Chapter 313 Gooseberry Defense
After repeated attempts by everyone on the farm, it was proven that the red flesh berry does have a good anti-aging effect.
After a round of picking this year, the subsequent fruit bearing was not very good, so there will probably be no chance to make a second jar of berry jam.
But it doesn’t matter. As long as we grow branches well this year and bear fruit well next year, good fruit will come sooner or later.
She didn't intend to become fat in one go.
Besides, planting these rare magic fruit trees is not as simple as imagined. Although Josh is wandering around the farm all day, he actually spends a lot of effort on these attribute crops.
Compared to the magic fruit trees previously planted on the farm, these replacement magic fruit trees are more delicate and have lower yields.
"Hey, ladybugs, why are you all here?" Josh saw the rose gooseberry branches in front of him were full of ladybugs that flashed like gems.
The ladybug flapped its wings, flew in front of Josh, and told Josh.
The rose gooseberry is about to bloom, which will attract many small insects that want to steal food. They all move here today and are ready to hunt.
Hiss, after hearing this, Josh suddenly remembered.
When ripe, rose gooseberries become a powerful attractant for exotic animals and are also quite attractive to monsters.
At the same time, it contains rich attribute power, which can improve the skill proficiency of exotic beasts and magical beasts. In the wild, it basically does not wait until it matures, and a large number of magical beasts will gather around it waiting to be fed.
Although the rose gooseberries on the farm have just bloomed and there are more insects now, when summer and autumn meet, most of the fruits will begin to ripen, which will inevitably attract many monsters to sneak into the farm. At that time, the farm's safety factor will definitely decrease.
This is not a good thing for either humans or animals, so Josh needs to make plans early.
"Brown~" Qiao Xi came to the giant lemon tree where the Brown-headed Vulture liked to stay the most and shouted a few times towards the treetops.
"Quack~" It's there indeed.
Ever since the bee-killing accident, the Brown-headed Vulture has reduced the number of times it leaves the Magic Fruit Forest and will stay on the farm unless there are special circumstances.
"The rose gooseberries are about to bloom, and the ladybugs are ready to hunt them. If any particularly difficult insect monsters enter the farm, I'd like to trouble you to help them."
"Quack~" No problem. Zong Zong nodded seriously. He would not let go of any bad creature that came to the farm to steal food.
"Thank you, Zongzong." After saying that, Qiao Xi looked at the Brown-headed Vulture standing on the tree, and felt that the distance between the man and the bird seemed to have become farther.
"Brown, come down, come to me." Josh shouted.
"Quack?" The brown-headed vulture was stunned for a moment, but still chose to obey Josh's order, jumped up from the branch, and gently flapped its wings to cushion the impact.
Just as it was wondering why Josh asked it to come down, Josh hugged it.
"It's nothing, I just want to hug you." Qiao Xi said with a smile while hugging the brown-headed vulture.
"Quack." Josh.
Zongzong was a little stunned. Yes, Qiaoxi hadn't hugged him for a long time, and he really wanted to be hugged by Qiaoxi.
"Are you tired during this period? I have assigned you a lot of tasks." Josh stroked its black feathers gently.
"Quack~" Not tired, the Brown-headed Raven Warrior never complains of being tired. Brown-headed felt that he could still do it, and was not afraid of more tasks.
Tsk, you’re just being stubborn.
Josh looked at the Brown-headed Vulture with heartache. Over the past few months, both the construction and safety issues of the Weiguang Commercial District were solved thanks to the help of the Brown-headed Vulture.
If it didn't patrol and inspect several times a day, how could it deter those villains with ulterior motives?
She must be very tired because she has neglected Tan Tan recently.
"I will hand over all matters concerning the Glimmer Commercial District to the Pink-Feathered Pelican, and let it take over all your patrol duties. You won't have to fly back and forth, and you can just focus on protecting the fruit trees in the Magic Fruit Forest."
The pink-feathered pelican has a more lively personality and is better able to adapt to noisy environments. Today's dimly lit commercial district is noisy and chaotic, which is not suitable for the brown-headed vulture but is suitable for the pink-feathered pelican to exercise.
She knew that Zong Zong didn't like noisy environments, and thinking about it made Josh feel even more guilty.
"Quack~" Josh didn't have to feel bad for me. I enjoyed the sense of accomplishment that came with completing the task. I didn't feel tired.
Look, it’s only been a short time and Zongzong has become a little slick. Is this growth?
She missed the little country crow.
"Okay, I'm not sad. I just want you to take a rest. Now a new mission is assigned to you. Protect Rose Gooseberry. Can you do it?"
"Quack!" Of course, this is my job. The brown-headed vulture straightened his chest and raised his head, taking on the task with a serious face.
Looking at the serious-looking Brown-headed Vulture, Josh couldn't help but scratched its head with evil intentions. The brown crest was messed up by Josh, which made the Brown-headed Vulture look more gentle.
This is the right way to do it. Why be so serious? Qiao Xi quietly admired his masterpiece in his heart.
Zongzong shook his head quietly. Don’t think he didn’t notice what Josh was doing.
Unfortunately, the warmth didn't last long. Zongzong couldn't sit still anymore and flapped its wings to fly. When Qiao Xi wanted to hug it again, it looked at him with surprise.
It seems like he is saying, I’ve been hugging you for a long time, that’s enough!
Well, Josh could only let go and watch the brown-headed vulture fly to the gooseberry forest.
The beasts are so self-disciplined that she, as a farmer, can't afford to dawdle and waste time. Josh didn't dwell on this small feeling of loss too much. She turned back to the farm hut and found the pink-feathered pelican playing with the lamb.
"Come here, little pink ball. Starting today, you will be responsible for a very important task. Do you have the confidence to accept it?"
"Gu?" The pink-feathered pelican didn't hear clearly, what?
"Do you have confidence?" Josh asked it again seriously.
"Coo coo!" I heard it clearly and had confidence.
No way.
But the little pink ball knew that it didn’t matter whether she heard clearly or not at this time. What mattered was a firm answer.
"Okay, very good, very good! From today on, all patrol missions of the Brown-headed Vulture will be handed over to you, and you will be responsible for the situation in the Weiguang Commercial District in the future." Josh patted the base of the big bird's wings and encouraged.
"Goo?" What? The pink-feathered pelican felt his eyes go dark.
It's just a little bird, not even an adult!
The round little eyes looked at Josh with tears in their eyes, and Josh knew what it meant without having to say.
"Look, you're already so big now. You're five times older than your uncle Ya. Such a small thing must be a piece of cake for you. Do you have the confidence?" Qiao Xi pretended not to understand.
"Gu~"
The little pink ball has no confidence at all.
