Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 424 Watering well during the seeding period 1
Lin Sanjiu never thought that the seven people who were "planted" before her were all in this earthen room at this moment.

The earthen chamber, whose side walls formed a semicircle, was much more spacious than the one she had just fallen from.Regardless of size or height, it seems to be as large as a hotel lobby; the most striking thing is that there are three small doors embedded in the earth wall on the other side—the most On a door next to it, there is a piece of paper with "No. 42 to No. 49" written on it.

"This...you are the ones who came down before me," Lin Sanjiu glanced at the crowd, paying attention to the number plates on their bodies.In the dim earthen room, only the number plate exudes a faint fluorescence, which looks much more conspicuous than people: "Why are they all gathered here?"

When she walked into the hall full of doubts, except for the oval-faced girl, the rest of the people were standing or sitting, and there was one lying in the corner. It seemed that the atmosphere was quite leisurely——

"I'm waiting for you," a fair-skinned young man with the number 44 on his number plate laughed at her. "It's really boring to keep confronting a few men. Fortunately, another girl came."

Just as Lin Sanjiu frowned, a steady voice sounded from the other side: "No. 44, don't talk nonsense."

She looked up and saw a serious-looking, well-built middle-aged man sitting cross-legged on one side, with 42 written on the number plate on his chest.He turned to Lin Sanjiu and said, "49, right? I'm sorry, these young people have been bored underground for a long time, and their speech is inevitably a bit messy... But we are indeed waiting for you. Now that you are here, we can go in ——you saw it too? The door on the far left? From there, we can enter the place Harry reserved for us, but all eight seeds of this batch must go in."

"All in?" Lin Sanjiu was taken aback, "But Harry made me wait for seven days, saying that each seed had to be planted in one day..." She thought that all the previous seeds had been planted in the ground .

"I also waited for three days before Harry let me down." The oval-faced girl on No. 45 interjected—perhaps because she and Lin Sanjiu were the only women in the earth room, so her attitude was natural when she spoke. The place is a bit casual: "In a day, it seems that only one person can come down. Brother 42 has been waiting in this earthen room for many days."

Lin Sanjiu couldn't help noticing that they only referred to each other by numbers; although she felt more comfortable doing this, she still asked curiously, "Why, don't you exchange names?"

"Number 47 thinks this is better." The oval-faced girl explained with a smile, then pointed to a young man sitting farthest from everyone in the corner. No. 47 was wearing a blue gown, a style Lin Sanjiu had never seen before, and it reminded her of Ji Shanqing's cloak.

"Since everyone is here, let's go in." A man wearing a turban stood up, and as he moved, the number plate marked "43" hung down from his chest.

In Lin Sanjiu's field of vision at this time, besides these few seeds, there are also many people standing in twos and threes; some are familiar friends, some are faces that he can't say where he has seen before—it is precisely because of these hallucinations that come and go Go, it took her several minutes to realize a problem: "...Eh? Why didn't you see numbers 46 and 48?"

"They've already gone in and waited." The middle-aged man who was the first to come responded with a hint of a leading demeanor.

"Don't we have to go in together?"

"No, it's okay to go in first, but nothing will happen." No. 42 was very patient when answering the question, and people couldn't help admiring that he could do the same thing seven times: "...it seems to have to wait for everything. After everyone has entered, Harry will start the next move."

"The next move... is watering?" Lin Sanjiu asked hesitantly.

"Who knows, are you worried?" Before No. 42 could speak, the fair and clean young man with a somewhat frivolous attitude just now poked his head over from behind her: "If you are worried, you might as well stand by my side for a while Right? I'll protect you."

To be honest, this is the first time Lin Sanjiu has met such an evolutionary since the end of the world—in the eyes of most people, there is no distinction between men and women in this world; therefore, she does not know how to deal with it That's good, I just shook my head and walked a few steps away from No. 44.

"It's so cold..." No. 44's grunt came from behind.

While everyone was talking, No. 47, who was walking in the front and wearing a long coat, had already opened the door - behind the door was not a room as Lin Sanjiu thought, but a corridor instead.Everyone walked in one after another. When she passed by, she inadvertently glanced at the notice posted on the door.

"Numbers 42 to 49"—there was simply such a line written on the paper.

Just as his gaze swept across the paper, Lin Sanjiu immediately heard No. 43, who was walking ahead and wrapped in a floral turban, suddenly asked, "Why are you staying here?"

Who?
Because the corridor is narrow and dark, eight people and many hallucinations are crowded together, Lin Sanjiu still can't see who No. 43 is talking to——

"We tried, but we couldn't get in. We probably have to wait for everyone to come together." A strange voice said. "Is number 49 here?"

"Why, didn't you notice it when you came last time? 49 is here, right there." No. 43 turned around and pointed in Lin Sanjiu's direction casually, "Where is No. 48? Oh, oh, over there—— Alright, let's move on then."

"Secretly tell you," the girl on number 45 suddenly approached her and smiled, "46 and 48 seem to be a pair."

"Ah?" Lin Sanjiu was stunned for a few seconds before she understood what she meant—after being in the extreme temperature hell, she had hardly met a couple of the opposite sex again, but unexpectedly met a same-sex couple here lovers.

Since there were people crowded in front of him, and most of them were men who were similar in height to him, Lin Sanjiu never saw the appearance of No. 46 and No. 48.After walking forward for a few minutes with the people crowded together, the second corridor, which is much shorter in comparison, soon came to the end.

At the end of the corridor, what greeted the eight seeds was a very weird space.

Call it a honeycomb, but it’s not so dense and tidy—[Ability Polishing Agent] has long been put away, and with the faint light in someone’s hand, Lin Sanjiu can barely see that the soil is sparse and loose. One by one, the small cubicles were filled up to the ceiling in this space.If the waist is bowed, then each compartment can barely squeeze a person, and the compartments are staggered and layered on each other, and it seems that they can climb all the way to the top.

"What... is the intention?" asked someone in the crowd.

"If you want the seeds to germinate," the steady voice undoubtedly belonged to No. 42: "In addition to the necessary watering and fertilization, the soil should not be too hard, it should be lighter and ventilated. I didn't expect this dungeon to be quite closer to real."

"Brother 42 knows a lot!" A girl's voice said with a smile, it must be number 45.

"Where, before the doomsday, I liked to grow flowers and vegetables, and my wife complained a lot - she hated attracting bugs."

Everyone laughed nervously.

After waiting for a few more seconds, seeing that there was still no movement in the earthen room, everyone couldn't sit still.The eight people didn't know what the small cubicle was for, so they all squeezed into the small space at the door, standing very uncomfortable; No. 47, who had always been taciturn, became the first to speak out: "What's going on?" What about the Hari people?"

As if he heard his own name, Farmer Harry's voice suddenly echoed in the earthen room.

"Hey, you're all here... Well, okay, I'll explain the rules of filling and watering to you right away." His voice sounded a little surprised for some reason—even though Lin Sanjiu didn't know that he What's the surprise: "Okay, have you all seen the earth room in front of you? There are many grids built in the earth room, right? In fact, there are a total of one hundred grids here, no more, no less."

Farmer Harry seems to be a bit of a verbose guy.

"The period before you germinate is called the seed period. During the seed period, I will put the nutrients you need into each grid-during this period, it is water drops. There are eight people present, each Everyone needs to collect 40 drops of water before they can successfully enter the next germination period." Harry said vaguely: "I don't know if everyone here has planted anything? There is often not only one seed in a pit. ...It takes several seeds to ensure that they will germinate; this principle is the same here.”

Hearing this, the eight people fell silent.

Even without looking at him, Lin Sanjiu could sense the change in the atmosphere in the arena—if everyone got along quite well just now, they had already started to feel a little nervous now.

Although he didn't explain clearly, everyone understood what Farmer Harry meant: I'm afraid there are not 320 drops of water, and among the eight people present, I'm afraid there will be eliminated seeds—after all, this is a dungeon, and there really isn't one. So easy!
"Are there enough drops of water here for each of us to germinate?" In the darkness, someone really raised his voice to ask—even though they were buried deep in the ground at the moment, it was unknown whether Harry could hear them.

But Harry did hear it.

"Don't worry, the water drops are definitely enough." To everyone's surprise, he responded immediately: "As long as you find the water drops and identify them, it will be fine."

It is not difficult to understand when you find it, he said to identify...?
"Oh, it's all because of the surrounding chemical factories polluting the nearby water sources." Harry proposed a reason that was obviously in the background of the copy, "Although I use the well water in my backyard to irrigate the crops, it is inevitable that there will be Contaminated groundwater has come to my farm. It looks the same as well water, so you have to be careful when you collect the water droplets - if you absorb a 'polluted water source', your physical strength will be weakened. Weakened to a certain extent; it is said that the degree of weakness is equivalent to that of a human without food for a month. And if you absorb clean water, your physical strength will not change, and it will only gradually become stronger after germination.”

In this way, even an evolutionary has a limited amount of polluted water that can be absorbed - because clean water is useless for physical strength, that is to say, once one absorbs polluted water that exceeds one's physical strength, then even if one absorbs 40 A clean water source, enough for germination, will surely die.

"How to tell?" Someone asked.

"I'm sorry, but as a farmer, I can't tell the difference. By the time I find out that some seeds have been poisoned by polluted water, it's usually too late." Harry actually had no comment on the most critical issue. "But everyone, don't worry, as long as you still have the number plate, I will dig you out even if you die..."

What's the use of that!

Lin Sanjiu muttered this in his heart just now, only to hear No. 45 ask again: "Then how do we collect water drops? What kind of water drops?"

"Each drop of water is big, about the size of a fist, and transparent in color. It can be carried around, exchanged, and collected, just like a pen or a piece of paper." Harry said honestly: "In the earth room Getting the water droplet is only the first step; after you confirm that the water droplet in your hand is a non-polluting water source, you have to absorb it—after all, the seeds need to drink water to germinate. But the absorption time is not limited, You can find one to absorb one, or you can collect 40 and then absorb it in one breath. Another thing to note is that you can’t absorb it in the earth room, you have to go back to the hall just now.”

This rule is a bit strange...

Lin Sanjiu tilted her head, lost in thought.I don't know when there was a figure beside her, Gong Daoyi lowered his head slightly, and whispered two words in her ear: "For example."

example?What example?

Was he trying to remind me of something—

Lin Sanjiu was startled, and immediately turned her head to ask another question; but when she turned her head, she met not Gong Daoyi's face, but almost bumped into the fair-skinned No. 44.

"You are too close to me." Frowning, she said coldly. "Stand back."

"Oh, you really don't want people to get close at all..." No. 44 kept talking, but after glancing at her again, he quickly raised his hands and took two steps back.

"Have you understood the rules?" Probably not aware of the strange atmosphere in the earth chamber deep underground, Harry announced with a smile: "Then after counting down dozens of times, I will start watering Already - 10, 9, 8, ..."

Before the count of 8 was finished, everyone who had reacted had already rushed to the cubicle in front of them.

　Today, the computer touchpad suddenly broke down for a while, and I was so scared that I thought it couldn’t be updated... The main reason is that if I don’t update it today, I will probably forget all my brains tomorrow, and then I will go out and not collect materials (pay attention to the distinction )... You will say that the tail is shameless again!

Although the comment area seems to be a bit cold recently, I still like this dungeon quite a bit, but I am afraid that the enthusiasm will not last until the dungeon ends, hehehe.
