Chapter 220 Planting Cotton
Anyway, she will act according to the circumstances and must "plant" the cotton seeds in her hand today.
"Okay then." Shen Qingxiao agreed reluctantly.
Today they went to Scorpion Ridge near Linshuigou to look for materials. It took them about three quarters of an hour to get there.
Shen Qingqian didn't feel tired at all while walking today because she was worried about cotton. However, Shen Qingxiao was originally brought up as a lady, and she was very tired after walking all the way here.
"Third sister, drink some water here first. I see there are a lot of ferns over there. Pick them all after you have rested. I'll go take a walk around." Shen Qingqian took the opportunity to say quickly.
Although Scorpion Ridge has the word "Ling" in its name, it is actually a large area of low, rocky slopes with only a dense forest growing on the top of the slope.
However, this place looked like a maze at first glance, and Shen Qingqian gradually disappeared under Shen Qingxiao's close gaze.
"Sixth sister" Shen Qingxiao didn't see anyone at first glance and immediately shouted loudly.
Shen Qingqian's voice came from afar, "Hey! Third sister, I'm here. I saw some rare flowers and broken bells. Pick some ferns next to them first and then come over."
Hearing her reply, Shen Qingxiao felt relieved. He pounded his calf while looking around.
Shen Qingqian did have the two materials she mentioned, but she ignored them. Instead, she quickly cleared a piece of land, pulled out the weeds by the roots, and sprayed the ground with herbicide.
This herbicide was given by the system last night and is also resettable. The information shows that it does not harm the land and crops and is only effective against weeds.
After doing all this, Shen Qingqian used her small hoe to dig holes in the ground. She didn't care about the gaps in the soil and dug more than thirty holes as quickly as possible.
She wiped the sweat from her forehead, and without even taking a breath, she took out the cotton seeds, threw them into the pit, and covered it with soil.
"Sixth sister, we have picked all the ferns here. Do you have any more?" Shen Qingxiao shouted as he walked towards Shen Qingqian.
Shen Qingqian was holding a handful of accelerating fertilizer in her hand. When she heard the words, her hand shook and the fertilizer spilled out.
She didn't even bother to pour the holy spring water on the ground one by one. She walked quickly around the land and turned back and said, "Third sister, there seems to be one on the left. Take a look first."
Only when she saw that Shen Qingxiao had indeed turned to the left did Shen Qingqian feel temporarily relieved.
Just delay it for five more minutes and a piece of cotton will grow here.
But at times like this, people will feel that time passes very slowly.
Shen Qingqian stared at the ground with wide eyes, and witnessed once again with her own eyes the rapid emergence of green seedlings in the ground, and then they grew taller and taller, and white cotton flowers bloomed before her eyes.
She didn't recognize this kind of cotton, but from its appearance, it should be a kind of long-staple cotton.
Before Shen Qingqian could think deeply, Shen Qingxiao's voice rang out again, "Sixth sister, there's nothing here. Let me come to your side and take a look."
"Third sister, I found something good, come here quickly!" Shen Qingqian immediately came back to her senses and shouted at her.
The straight-line distance between the two was not far, but there were too many rocks here, so Shen Qingxiao wandered around for a long time before he reached Shen Qingqian.
"What kind of flower is this?" Shen Qingxiao looked at the white flower in front of him in surprise, "Why didn't I see it just now?"
Shen Qingqian's face was filled with excitement. "This is cotton! I've seen it in a miscellaneous book before. It's said that this kind of flower can be used to make cotton-padded clothes and quilts, which are very warm!"
