Chapter 343 Making Hay
"Could this be the correct way to use Inter-Slash?"

Rock muttered to himself in surprise. He didn't expect that he would develop a new way of using geraniums in one cut today.

Compared with the original usage, the new method has a wider skill range, and Geranium is more comfortable to use, which also makes the skill release faster and more powerful.

What satisfies Rock the most is that this way of using the skill makes the forward swing of the skill very short, and Geranium can use it with just a shake of the body.

Even Roque felt that with the improvement of proficiency, even the vibration can be omitted, directly reaching the level of instant.

After all, the flowers on the neck of a geranium are also a part of its body, and the degree of control is not weaker than other parts of the body.

The only thing that might be missing is that it is a little bit less refined and flexible, but that doesn't hurt too much.

The most important point is that Rock seems to have found a direction for Geranium's swordsmanship talent to be used again, and he already has a little idea.

But now is not the time to deduce Geranium's swordsmanship, and Geranium does not meet the conditions that Rock envisioned for the time being, so they still have to return to their original work.

Rock withdrew his thoughts and asked Geranium.

"How do you feel, Geranium, don't take it easy like this."

"Gamma!"

Geranium nodded excitedly, it can't wait to try a new way to cast the joint cut, which makes it feel refreshed for a long time.

"Heh, let's start it! After you're proficient, try to reduce the forward movement and try to achieve instant firing. I believe you have this ability."

"Gamma!"

Encouraged by Rock, Geranium responded energetically, and then stepped forward again in the grass with four hooves.

After switching to using the petals at the neck to perform the joint cut, although he is still a little unskilled, the speed of geranium harvesting grass is still much faster.

And as it becomes proficient, the mowing team moves faster and faster.

And to my surprise, the instant joint cut was not difficult for Geranium, and it didn't take long for it to do it.

This made Geranium feel more relaxed, so Rock and the others worked directly for more than an hour this time.

At the beginning, the geranium could only walk one step at a time, but later it could trot.

Rock looked at the small piece of grassland that had been leveled by the geranium behind him, and was very satisfied. Now the geranium can be regarded as a veritable "super lawn mower".

Although the harvesting time of these pastures is still a bit late, the best harvesting time is before the grass seeds are formed, so that the nutrients in the pastures will be preserved the most.

But fortunately, the grass has not withered and yellowed at this time, so there are still some nutrients left, coupled with a sufficient amount, it is more than enough to meet the energy intake of the flock throughout the winter.

"Well done, there's enough grass for the Mare and Wool sheep until next year, now we can go back and rest for a while."

Rock praised Arbor and blamed them, and then returned to the camp with the elves.

These cut pastures should be left in the sun for half a day, and the next step of work can only be continued after the water content in the grass leaves drops to a certain level.

After returning to the camp, it was just about time for lunch, so Rock started cooking directly.

The ingredients are all ready-made, and a lot of wild elves were surprised when they mowed the grass just now.

Some brave wild elves did not run away immediately, but chose to attack the geranium, and they were lucky to become the ingredients cooked in the pot at this time.

"It seems that I can't finish eating vegetables. It seems that I have to buy some food cans when I go to Sunshine Town this time."

Rock was holding a bucket and standing at the gate of the vegetable garden.

The wild roses on the stone wall have all withered, leaving only the thorny vines that climbed all over the wall.However, the vegetables in the vegetable garden are all mature, red peppers, purple eggplants, green peas, spinach, etc., all grow very well, a scene of a bumper harvest.

It's just that there are a few vegetables that Roque and Junsha Yami seem to have planted too much before, or that Roque and the elves ate a little less, and these vegetables seem to be endless.

For example, Tomato Roque saw that many ripe ones fell into the soil and rotted, which is a pity.

In order to deal with these vegetables, Rock decided to add meals to the elves from today, so that everyone can eat more vegetables. In addition, he also planned to process some of them and store them to eat slowly.

Rock picked a bucket full of vegetables in the vegetable garden, felt that it was not enough and picked another bucket, and then returned to the camp to continue cooking.

When it was time to serve the meal, the elves were a little surprised by the vegetables in the rice bowl.

"It's going to be winter recently, everyone should eat more vegetables to supplement nutrition, so there should be no leftovers."

Rock scooped up a large spoon full of stir-fried cucumbers with tomatoes for Dai Rubi, who was the last one in the line before him. After watching it leave, he filled himself with two pieces of Dala steak and ate it.

This unhealthy way of eating is better for him to come by himself.

After lunch, there was still a period of time before the pasture was ready to dry. Taking advantage of this time, Rock took out the computer, pulled out a grass stem from the ground, and compared the shape to check the information.

It turns out that the main herbaceous plant in the pasture is awnless brome, which is indeed a very good pasture.

This put Rock in a very good mood. He lay on the bed and took a good nap with the elves. It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when he woke up.

"Ha~ The afternoon nap in autumn is so refreshing, it should be almost there now, guys, let's go."

Rock yawned, raised his watch and looked at the time. He felt that the pasture cut in the morning should have been dried, so he took the elves back to the grassland.

This time he didn't bring Abo to blame them, but brought four Nido Kings and Nido Queens, because they will be the main force for the next job.

"Let's pile up all the grass on the ground first, and make a small pile every ten meters."

With a big wave of Rock's hand, King Nido and Queen Nido acted according to his command.

They also held an oak branch with branches in each hand, which was a pitchfork that Rock temporarily made for them.

Fresh grass must be made into hay before it can be stored, because the enzyme action will stop only when the moisture in the forage drops to a very low level.

However, when the moisture in the grass drops by more than half, the rate of evaporation of water will slow down.

At this time, it does not make much sense to spread it flat in the sun, but it will speed up the loss of nutrients.

Therefore, after the grass had been in the sun for a long time, he asked King Nido and Queen Nido to pile up the grass into small piles, so as to reduce the exposed area of ​​the grass and effectively reduce the loss of nutrients caused by the sun.

Of course, these were just temporary investigations by Rock last night. The study materials that Rui downloaded to his computer really helped him a lot.
