Doomsday Drifting Begins with Shipbuilding

Chapter 116 Growing Rain and Dew
Although Chen Xuan still stayed in the wooden house at this time and did not go out, but all the situation on the "Kunpeng" was under his control.

He can clearly feel that the crops in the soil are still growing vigorously under the moisture of the rain, even without sunlight.

And this growth rate is several times that of a sunny day.

In addition, originally Chen Xuan only planned to expose the crops for a short time and then cover them. After all, there was heavy rain at this time. Under normal circumstances, the crops would be submerged by the rain in a short time.

But at this moment, there is no sign of rainwater seeping out of the field, just like a bottomless pit. The crops in the field are greedily absorbing the rainwater, growing themselves continuously, as if endlessly.

Chen Xuan has always understood that most plants require photosynthesis to grow, and the crops he is growing now are no exception.

In the absence of sunlight, plants will continue to consume their own nutrients, and will only become thinner and weaker.

And when he was in Dongji Mountain, during the process of studying with Professor Li Baichuan, he also had a better understanding of post-apocalyptic botany.

He knew that mutated energy would participate in the growth of plants and even all living things, but the effect of sunlight on plants could not be ignored.

Professor Li Baichuan did not say that current plants have other ways of growing.

However, this phenomenon at this moment undoubtedly broke his long-standing cognition of all mankind.

Anyway, it is a fact that plants can grow faster now.

Clearly, this is a completely new way of promoting biological growth that has never been seen before.

This made Chen Xuan very curious.

What drives the growth of plants other than photosynthesis?

Hearing the dense beeping sound from the roof above his head, and feeling the unusualness of the crops in the field, he suddenly had an idea.

Is there something special about this rainwater?

Driven by curiosity, he opened the window slightly, took a porcelain bowl, and stuck it out through the gap.

In this weather, it is not difficult to get some rain.

The roof has been scoured by heavy rain overnight, and it is now very clean.

The rainwater hit the sloping roof, slid all the way down and gathered into thick water columns, which fell steadily into the porcelain bowl, making a crisp sound.

Taking back the porcelain bowl, Chen Xuan put his face on it and looked at it carefully.

The water in the bowl is clean and clear, looks no different from ordinary pure water, and smells nothing.

"Mobile type illustration module, start!"

------

Name: Grow Rain Dew

type: food

Features: A special product in thunderstorm weather, the lightning and the energy dissipated from the ocean have a special reaction to produce new energy that is absorbed by the rain, this energy can accelerate the growth of organisms and help recovery from injuries.

Weaknesses: Fear of high temperature and sunlight, high temperature and sunlight will decompose the energy in the water.

------

It was exactly as he had guessed.

But what does this growth energy feel like?
It seems that you have to take a sip to know.

Chen Xuan picked up the porcelain bowl and directly swallowed a mouthful of rainwater.

I closed my eyes and felt the rain sliding down my esophagus, giving me an icy cold feeling.

In addition, there is a trace of energy diffusion.

Although this energy is subtle, it is not simple.

From this energy, Chen Xuan experienced an unprecedented feeling.

This is completely different from the mutated energy contained in the food eaten in the past. The mutated energy is more of a hot and hot feeling, which stimulates the body's cells to mutate and break through the original upper limit.

The energy contained in the rainwater, although it cannot promote biological evolution and mutation, seems to be slowly awakening the cells of the body, making them active and vigorous, and accelerating metabolism.

Under the effect of this energy, Chen Xuan even felt that his body, which had been ravaged by snake venom, seemed to be recovering a bit.

Chen Xuan was refreshed.

Undoubtedly a major discovery!
After learning that rainwater is helpful for growth and recovery, he stopped staying in the wooden house, and directly stripped himself naked and ran to the deck to further absorb the vitality brought by the rainwater.

Originally, he was very afraid of the cold after being poisoned by the snake, which would cause him pain, but at this time, although the rain across the skin made him feel a little cold, it did not cause pain.

Unlike food, rainwater can seep into the skin.Through the pores, he can absorb the energy of rainwater.

It's just that the utilization efficiency is definitely not as good as the plants growing in the field.

Chen Xuan glanced at the field. In just a short while, the leaves of the crops in the field had grown almost half a centimeter.

It has to be said that these plants can perceive and utilize external energy much better than him.

He looked around again.

It was still pitch black outside, only the light sticks inlaid on the wooden roof sprinkled some faint light, so that he could barely see the situation on the boat and the track of the rain falling, but other than that, he couldn't see anything .

Only occasionally when a flash of lightning flashed by, could he briefly see those thick clouds in the sky that seemed to be indissoluble, as well as the pitch-black sea surface.

At this moment, the "Kunpeng" seems to be driving into a black hole.

And Chen Xuan looked around, and there was nothingness all around.

When you are staring into the abyss, the abyss is also staring into you.

Such an atmosphere made him feel a little depressed.

He needed to quickly find something to distract himself, so that he would not pay attention to the darkness in front of him as much as possible, because this darkness seemed to swallow up his will.

Chen Xuan felt the surrounding situation carefully, and confirmed that the current wind and waves are not moving much, and there is no seawater rushing onto the deck.

He opened the water reservoirs at the bow and stern of the ship. He didn't know when the waves would come again. Taking advantage of the fact that the sea was relatively calm now, he had to seize the time to collect as much rainwater as possible.

Then, he opened the seal of the green algae pond.

Today's rainy weather is also a good opportunity to cultivate macrophage green algae.

As the rainwater sprinkled into the green algae pool, the macrophage green algae in it quickly expanded like a pile of flour that absorbed water.

Seeing this, Chen Xuan felt a little scared.

He was glad that he had already sailed out of the range of the giant green tide. If he was still in the giant green tide, then in today's windy weather, the giant green algae would definitely completely envelop the "Kunpeng" , then his situation is too dangerous.

Even if he could temporarily hide in the wooden house for a while, he would definitely not be able to go out. The deck must be full of macrophage green algae, and all his plants would probably die.

Chen Xuan looked at the field again.

Since the jade cabbage was harvested last time, many places have been vacated in the field.

The current torrential rain is an opportunity, just to complete a new round of sowing now.
