The four of them went out in the afternoon, bringing with them a lot of ropes and sacks, ready to cut some grass.

After leaving the base, the grass outside suddenly became lush. Except for a few mutant grasses, the rest of the grass was very ordinary.

They tightened their trousers and legs and lay in the grass. Soon, they were covered with grass seeds and leaves.

The grass, leaves and branches hit them, tearing several holes in Xia Lunong's clothes, and there were also slight scratches on the back of her hands.

Xia Lunong glanced at the grass leaves and branches. "Such sharp grass leaves, I guess it's hard for the calves to chew them."

"Find another one for them." Xia Huoqu glanced at the clear sky above his head. "It's already autumn, I guess we can't find tender grass leaves."

"That's true." Xia Lunong followed his brother, panting. "Brother, how far do we have to go now?"

They had to find a place for the honeysuckle to take root today. They

couldn't plant it too close to the base. They were afraid that other people in the base would panic, so they planned to find a place farther away from the base.

Their base was in a valley halfway up the mountain. Outside the base, there were layers of mountains. In addition to the two sides of the main road, there were also terraces in the mountains that were opened by people nearby before the disaster.

After people cultivated these terraces, the land was relatively fertile, no longer barren loess or brick red soil.

They were now looking for such a place, a place that had been opened by others, not too far from the base, with relatively fertile soil and convenient water.

Such a place was not easy to find. They walked around the mountain again and again in the hot summer, but still couldn't find a really suitable place.

The places they found were either not spacious enough, or the soil was not fertile enough, or it was inconvenient to get water. After careful consideration, it seemed that there were deficiencies everywhere.

Kong Zhi also took Xia Lunong to fly into the sky to look around for several times.

When they were in the sky, the two of them could not see clearly because of the mountains, so they had to come down and search slowly.

Xia Huo said, "Let's search slowly. The pasture fields are easy, but the honeysuckle is difficult to move after it is planted. Think carefully at once to avoid any problems in the future." Xia Lunong

thought of the honeysuckle bushes outside the library and nodded in agreement.

Today, they not only planted the honeysuckle, but also found a place for their friends to stay. It is indeed not too much to be attentive.

Yan Xinian said, "Otherwise, plant it in the river valley, along the river, so that it will be convenient to get water in the future. The honeysuckle itself is so huge, and when it grows up, it will probably consume a lot of water."

They had just looked at the river valley.

Xia Lunong said disapprovingly: "Others are fine, but we are afraid of mountain torrents in summer, and the terrain is too low."

Xia Huoqu said: "If we can't find it today, we will look for it for a few more days. Xiao Nong, your ability can keep it alive. It doesn't matter if we look for a few more days. We just come out today to investigate the surrounding environment."

Xia Huoqu spoke, and no one objected.

Everyone ran under the scorching sun and slowly got farther away from the base.

Their base was in the mountains, bypassing two mountains, and after going down the mountain, there was a large plain.

Xia Lunong stood on the top of the mountain with her hands on her hips and looked down.

It had been so long since the disaster, and the plain below had been searched countless times. There were not many dangerous mutant plants and valuable things in it. Now it has become a paradise for green plants.

Xia Lunong pointed and suddenly asked, "Will we move down from the mountain and live on the plains in the future?" "

It's hard to say." Yan Xinian paused, "Nothing is certain now. Who knows if there will be any subsequent mutations after this disaster? Honeysuckle also said that many mutant plants and animals are now further deformed. I don't know what the situation will be in the future, let alone moving down the mountain to live."

They are indeed very isolated living in the mountains, but isolation also guarantees a certain degree of safety.

There are relatively few resources in the mountains, and they have built a city wall. As long as they send people to guard the city wall every day, they can basically guarantee safety.

If they go down the mountain, the plains are connected in all directions, and no matter where the mutant plants and animals come from, they can't hide.

Xia Lunong took a long breath, "If we move back to live in the mountains in the future, planting honeysuckle on the plains would be a very good choice. The soil is fertile and water is convenient."

"That's not certain." Yan Xinian said, "I think we should plant the honeysuckle on the hill outside the base. It is a little difficult to get water on the hill, but other plants can grow on the hill, so honeysuckle should be no problem."

Xia Huoqu said lightly: "Then it is better to plant it on the plains at the foot of the mountain. At least everything is fine at the foot of the mountain, but there is less contact with humans." Kong Zhi

interjected, "Otherwise, plant it at the foot of the mountain? With the ability of honeysuckle, it should have no problem protecting itself."

Several people were listening to the wind, and there was another silence.

Yan Xinian turned to look at Xia Lunong and said, "Xiao Nong, let's make the decision. Honeysuckle has entrusted its true form to you, so you can make the decision."

Xia Lunong turned around and looked around, feeling a little sad. "Then let's walk around a bit more? Maybe we can find a good place later."

There are only so many mountains nearby, and the few of them often go out of the base, so they have a general understanding of the terrain nearby.

If they can't find it after walking around for a few times, it means that there is really no suitable place nearby. It

is estimated that the same result will be obtained after searching for a few more days.

Xia Lunong had been thinking about it all afternoon, and when it was getting dark, he made up his mind, "Then let's plant it on the plain at the foot of the mountain."

He murmured to himself, "It's a little far at the foot of the mountain, but with its ability, it shouldn't be a problem to survive. Let's plant some grass around it so that we can visit it more often. It will be convenient for us to drive down the mountain to cut grass when the time comes."

Xia Huoqu: "Have you decided?"

"It's decided." Xia Lunong sniffed, "There's no result after going around in circles, so let's not delay."

Xia Huoqu: "Then plant it down there."

Several people went down the mountain.

The way down the mountain was much easier to walk than going up the mountain, and several people walked a little lighter.

It was just that the place looked not far away, but in fact, it was a dead horse. It took several people more than an hour to walk to the foot of the mountain, and their calves were sore.

The plain at the foot of the mountain had long been cultivated by humans and was considered cultivated land, with excellent conditions in all aspects.

Xia Lunong chose a place not far from the river and the road, put down the backpack on his back, and said, "Then let's use this as the center of the circle and mow the grass in all directions?"

"Okay." Xia Huoqu said, "When you mow the grass, be careful to distinguish it. Bundle the good grass back to feed the cows, and throw the ordinary grass on the ground."

The purpose of their trip this time originally included mowing the grass. Now they killed two birds with one stone, and no one had any objections.

The four people divided into four directions and slowly mowed the grass with sickles.

Xia Huoqu was not worried about the others, but was especially worried about his brother. "Be careful when you mow the grass, pay attention to snakes and insects, especially watch out for giant ants."

"Got it."

Xia Lunong turned her head and took a look. Giant ants are easy to eat and catch, and they taste good. Now they have become a dish in their base.

Regardless of whether they can transform into beasts or not, people who go out to catch ants can generally ensure their safety, so many people will run out to catch ants near the base in their spare time.

In the past one or two months, the ants near the base are almost extinct.

Fortunately, ant meat is slightly sour and cannot be eaten as a meal, so they escaped.

Xia Lunong bent down and carefully cut the grass. After a while, he saw snakes in the bushes. The snakes

he saw were not so fierce.

There are many kinds of snakes, some taste good, some are fishy and smelly, and cannot be eaten at all. The one he saw was the kind that cannot be eaten.

Xia Lunong took a breath, raised his knife and directly cut off the head of the nearby snake.

After such a long baptism, he is no longer the weak young man, and ordinary snakes and insects can basically do nothing to him.

Several people moved quickly, and they cut 23 bundles of grass in less than an hour.

These grasses can be eaten by cattle. Even if some of them are not so palatable, they can be carried back and cut into chopped grass, mixed with oil meal or soybean meal, and can also feed cattle.

As the sky gradually darkened, the few people did not cut more.

Xia Huoqu straightened up, "Xiao Nong, you plant the honeysuckle first."

"Okay." Xia Lunong took out the honeysuckle wrapped in cloth from his backpack.

This green vine was exactly the same as when he first took it over.

Xia Lunong felt it carefully and did not sense any consciousness from it.

This section of honeysuckle vine was exactly the same as an ordinary vine that had not changed.

Xia Lunong looked at it carefully for a while and turned his eyes away.

Xia Huoqu and his team dug a big hole in the middle of the cut grass, picked out the gravel and grass roots inside, and left only the fluffy and fertile soil.

Xia Lunong planted the honeysuckle in the hole, filled it with soil, and buried the roots of the honeysuckle.

Yan Xinian went to get some water and watered the nearby soil.

Xia Huoqu: "Is that all?"

"It's all right. I'll use some more of my superpowers on it and it will be basically fine."

Xia Lunong said as he closed his eyes and used his superpowers.

As soon as his superpowers fell on the honeysuckle, tiny leaf buds immediately emerged from the honeysuckle vine.

I guess it will grow new leaves tonight.

The honeysuckle was planted and watered, and the job was done. All they could do was continue to wait.

Xia Lunong said, "Let's carry the grass back, it's too late today."

Xia Huoqu said, "Your old brother and I will carry the grass back in the beast form, you can help to bundle the grass. You can fly back and cook in advance, and after we go back, we can go directly to Aunt Zheng to unload the grass, and then go back to eat."

"Okay." Xia Lunong raised her head, "Brother, what do you want to eat tonight?"

Xia Huoqu asked bluntly, "Meat."
