I am Shennong, who am I afraid of?

Chapter 33 The Pest Crisis
As Tang Fei thought, a golden hoe appeared in his hand.

"Huh? Why do I feel that this golden light hoe seems to be lighter! It has also become easier to operate!"

This time, Tang Fei felt that the golden hoe in his hand became much lighter.

With a wave of his hand, the golden hoe plowed a trench half a meter long and one foot deep on the ground.

You know, a few days ago, Tang Fei used all his strength to dig out a hole the size of his fist at most.

But now, this hoe is worth the effect of more than ten minutes of busy work before.

Tang Fei couldn't help guessing that this may be because his strength has been enhanced after his cultivation base has been improved, so it has become easier to swing the golden light hoe.

hum... hum...

The golden light hoe kept flying in Tang Fei's hands, and gullies soon appeared on the ground under his feet.

After working for a long time, Tang Fei sorted out the five spiritual fields.

Each spiritual field is neatly arranged one by one, one meter wide and ten meters long, five spiritual fields, exactly [-] square meters.

Including the previous piece of land, there are a total of six pieces of spiritual fields, occupying [-]% of the land area of ​​the entire Shennong space.

Tang Fei planned to leave the remaining space empty for the time being.

First fill up the five spiritual fields that have been reclaimed.

"How about planting something? By the way, let's take a look at the exchange mall and see what good things are there!"

Tang Fei entered the system exchange mall and took a look at the seeds he could exchange.

Currently, with Tang Fei's level 1 system authority, the seeds that can be redeemed are all level 1 categories, with a total of more than 300 types.

Among them, the seeds of various plants were covered, almost every one of which Tang Fei had never heard of.

Some of these strange plants are highly adaptable and can survive on almost any planet in the universe, while others are very fragile and have very strict requirements for the growth environment.

But the easier it is to grow and reproduce, the lower the value.

And the more delicate the plants, the more expensive they are.

Tang Fei discovered that there seemed to be a loophole in the system for exchanging plant seeds.

That is, whether it is a low-value plant seed or an expensive seed, the exchange price is divided according to the plant level.

For example, Tang Fei can only exchange for level 1 seeds now, so no matter what level 1 seeds, the exchange price is 1 energy point.

And for the same 1 energy point seed, after some seeds are planted and harvested, the rate of return is only [-]%, which means that after planting [-] seeds, the cost of one more seed can only be recovered.

But some have amazing returns, even exceeding [-]%!
That is to say, if you plant a seed, you will get a thousandfold return after harvesting.

It's a world of difference.

There are so many good things, it’s easy to be distracted!
Tang Fei simply selected the seeds of five plants according to his needs.

They are iron stick tree seeds that can be used to make weapons;
Seeds of the elixir that can heal trauma;

Bluesilver grass seeds that can temper spiritual power;
The other two plants are very special.

A bloody plant called man-eating vines that can prey on humans and animals that come into contact with the vines.

The other is called the turret pea. This plant has a short growth period, less than six days. The mature plant will grow a long tube similar to a gun barrel, and a huge pod will grow underneath to store the peas. When someone touches the pod hard, it will trigger the iron pea in the pod to shoot out at high speed from the cannon-shaped flower bud, which is as powerful as a light machine gun.

"It's interesting. When the turret pea is critical, it can be dug out of the soil and used as a machine gun. It can also be used when the village encounters strong enemies in the future!"

The only troublesome thing is that these seeds have strict requirements on the growing environment, and currently they can only grow in the Shennong space.

Therefore, even if the turret pea can be used as a machine gun, it is basically a one-time consumable.

After being dug out from the spirit field, the thirty iron peas in the pod will wither and die quickly after using them.

If you want to replant, you must exchange it with the system at the price of 1 point of energy per seed.

The same is true for the high-level seeds exchanged by other systems, all of which can only be planted at one time.

The so-called oligospecies means that they can only germinate and grow once, and the seeds produced cannot reproduce the next generation.

Tang Fei spent a total of [-] energy points in exchange for [-] seeds, exactly [-] of each kind.

After all these seeds were planted in the spiritual field, Tang Fei left the Shennong space directly.

When Wang Hao left Shennong Space, only one minute of outside time had passed.

It was still early in the day.

Tang Fei quickly returned to the potato garden and started picking potatoes.

The picking of the crazy potatoes was done by Tang Fei himself.

To Tang Fei's surprise, the crazy potatoes harvested this time were much larger than before.

The energy exchanged for each potato is 1 more than the original 0.1 point.

Don't underestimate this 0.1.

Converted into output, that is an average increase of 10%.

Afterwards, after Wang Hao's research, it was found that the reason for all this was the guano dropped by the birds in the sky.

Some time ago, there were always a large number of birds flocking around the potato garden, and at the same time brought a lot of bird droppings.

These bird droppings contain rich fertility, which makes this batch of crazy potatoes grow more vigorously, and the resulting crazy potatoes are all plump and huge.

However, even so, Wang Hao also discovered a problem.

That is, the interval between harvesting potatoes in the first few batches of Crazy Potatoes is basically five or six days, but the interval after that is getting longer and longer.

Now each batch of harvest time is basically more than ten days apart.

And with the passage of time, this phenomenon has become more and more obvious.

In addition, many crazy potato trees began to grow worms, and the leaves and roots were eaten by worms, which seriously affected the yield of potatoes.

Some potato trees with severe insect pests may even die directly.

Tang Fei also became anxious and organized the villagers to catch insects in the potato garden every day.

However, doing so not only did not help the situation, but the pests spread faster, and soon all the potato trees in the entire potato garden were affected by the pests.

Seeing that my months of hard work are about to go to waste, and now that Shennong Space has reclaimed six spiritual fields, the daily energy consumption alone is nearly [-] points.

And this potato garden is almost the source of Tang Fei's energy harvest, once all these potato trees die.

Then the energy that Wang Hao has worked so hard to accumulate will be exhausted in less than five days and ten years.

After the system's energy is exhausted, Tang Fei will also die with the system collapse.

Therefore, Wang Hao was very anxious at this time.

I stayed in the potato garden all day, and I didn't even think about practicing.

"System, do you have a solution to the pests and diseases of this crazy potato?"

The system replied: 【This problem needs to be solved by the host. If even this small problem cannot be solved, how can it become the strongest Shennong in the universe? 】

The system's answer is perfect.

Tang Fei was speechless.
