Chapter 304 303. Strange Animals and Plants

Caught off guard, there was a sudden crash on the car window!

The "crack" sound was so harsh that Huai Yu stared at the small hole on the front window in confusion: "What is that?"

"Brother Zhou Qian, did you hit a rock?"

Zhou Qian stared at it for a while, his expression unchanged. He just stepped on the accelerator and ordered, "Xiao Yu, roll your tinfoil into a ball and throw it out."

Huaiyu: ???

Although she was confused, she acted without hesitation and stuffed the dried meat into her mouth in a few seconds, filling her cheeks. At the same time, she squeezed and rubbed her hands hard, and a large, light ball of tinfoil appeared in her palms.

Silvery white, reflecting dazzling light in the sun.

Zhou Qian pressed the car window: "Be quick and throw it out, but don't put your hand out of the window."

Huai Yu did as he was told. At the moment the tinfoil ball flew out of the car window, a swift gray-blue shadow flashed through the air like lightning, and then a pair of sharp claws grabbed the silver-white tinfoil ball and quickly disappeared.

Huaiyu: ...

If she hadn't made the paper ball herself, I would have thought she had thrown away a piece of silver when I saw how quickly she snatched it away! "What is it?" She said in a muffled voice, with the dried meat in her mouth.

When the car window was raised again, she was heartbroken again: "Our car window! It's broken! Damn it!"

"It's okay." Zhou Qian was used to it. "It's just tolls. I didn't expect it to be so urgent this time, so I neglected it. Don't worry too much about the car windows. In the wilderness, as long as no one is hurt, it's a profit. Nothing else matters."

After entering the wilderness, Zhou Qian's attitude became particularly free and easy. Even though Huai Yu was still heartbroken, he took a deep breath and accepted it silently.

So, what is going on?

He just explained, "There are gray magpies and crows in the outer area. They live together in the wilderness and they like the same things - shiny things. They all like them."

"In the past, when large groups passed by, they would bring extra bits and pieces. As long as they were reflective and bright enough, they would love them. Otherwise, why do you think it is so difficult to buy even a decent plastic trinket now? They were all collected and used in the wilderness."

"There are many animals like magpies and crows that like shiny ornaments. But generally speaking, there are none in the outer areas. Maybe there were fewer expedition teams coming in the summer, so they can't wait."

Huaiyu: “…”

She suddenly opened the box beside her: "So you put a handful of zircon here..."

This is quite expensive. Huaiyu didn't know about it when Zhou Qian received it. He only discovered it when he counted the items.

Zhou Qian nodded: "Yeah. I just didn't expect that after so long, they are still not picky at all." If he had known earlier, he might have told Huai Yu earlier, and the car window would not have been hit by the gray magpie's sharp beak, leaving a small hole and faint cracks on the four sides.

I like diamonds as much as zircons, industrial glass and tinfoil balls as well.

In a sense, it's quite original.

Huaiyu's cheeks were sore from chewing the jerky but he still didn't finish it, and his mouth was almost unable to contain his saliva. He had no choice but to keep silent and start rummaging through the box at hand.

A box of zircon, a paper bag of salt, a box of soybeans, and a box of white granules...

"What is this?" she asked curiously.

Zhou Qian took a look and said, "There is a wintersweet when you pass Area 7. It loves to bloom, but I don't know why, but it just won't bloom well, so its temper is not very good."

"But because they are quite proud, they don't like to kill people - after a while everyone will know about it and will bring some fertilizer when they pass by."

"That box was bought by someone. It was a slow-release fertilizer that was sold by a flower company before. It has become clumping after so many years. I don't know if it is useful."

Huaiyu put the fertilizer back in amazement.

"What about the salt?"

"There is a nest of weasels near the center. When they get excited, they will release yellow poisonous gas that surrounds the edge of the jungle. This poisonous gas is corrosive to metal, and the car shell cannot withstand it. If you don't coax them, you will definitely not be able to get into the deep part."

"This salt is for them - of course, chickens, ducks or mice would also be fine, but I guess you wouldn't want to part with them."

Of course, chicken, duck and mouse, if she had known earlier, Huaiyu could have provided two of them. But how could she bear to give them up? In comparison, salt was still cheaper and more cost-effective.

"What about the soybeans? What mutant animal wants to eat them? Could it be a field mouse?"

The car was driving at a constant speed on the winding road, and Zhou Qian's voice was as steady as ever: "This is not for animals, it's for plants."

"There is a mutant dandelion that loves to give birth to babies, and then let the babies thrive... The competition for land in the wasteland is also fierce. It is small and grows slowly. Sometimes it cannot compete with other weeds. At this time, it needs more soil fertility."

Huaiyu understood.

Soybeans! They can absorb pollution in the soil and release some nitrogen fertilizer. Although the amount of nitrogen fertilizer released is very small under the current soil conditions, it is better than other things anyway.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Moreover, after the soybeans grow, they dry in the pods and fall off, and they can continue to grow next year. This kind of offspring is endless, and dandelions should be satisfied, right?

"How can there be an endless supply of descendants?"

Zhou Qian laughed and said, "Don't you see what kind of environment this is? If your melon seeds fall on the ground, they will probably be eaten quickly by birds and beasts, not to mention soybeans. Whether they can grow is another matter, so Dandelions have been collecting them and planting them one after another."

In a sense, he is also a hard-working farmer.

Because it has many beneficiaries, it has formed a symbiotic relationship with other powerful mutant plants. Therefore, although its lethality is not that strong, everyone still avoids it if possible.

There are only a few small boxes, each of which corresponds to a unique species. Huai Yu was amazed when he heard it.

Then he suddenly became puzzled again: "But they all sound good-tempered and easy to appease. It doesn't seem difficult! Brother Zhou Qian, why did you describe the wasteland as so scary before?"

Zhou Qian was helpless: "Did I describe the wasteland as so terrible?"

These are shortcuts that were only obtained after the garrison and defense forces had cleared out the enemies over and over again.

and……

"The wasteland is indeed that terrible. Xiaoyu, don't forget what I just said - the reason these species are so well understood is because they are all in the outlying areas that have been fully explored."

"Those who don't obey have long been wiped out by waves of firepower, and the rest are naturally able to communicate."

Of course, being able to communicate does not mean that they will obey human commands. In fact, the more they can communicate and think, the more cautious we need to be.

"Do you understand? If you encounter this, you must be careful." Zhou Qian said with a serious expression.

Huaiyu nodded, being well behaved and obedient.

Update one.
