I became an old man in my leisure time

Thinking of the small hut and the black soil of the fairy field given by the system, Gu Ke had to admit that staying in the valley was the only chance at present.

As long as he was not stupid enough to give them access to the strange monsters and demons that might exist here, the rest depended on how powerful the "access control" of the small hut was.

Logically speaking, this small hut was the "safe birth point" given to him by the system, so it wouldn't be too useless!

However, if he couldn't get the strange crystal, he wouldn't have the soul source. The only way for him to become stronger at present was to sign in to the small coupons given by the system every day.

In the case of lack of own strength, he could only consider looking for external aid.

For example... the lady in red? Who made her the strongest here?

What did he have that the other party needed? Without a doubt, it could only be food.

After thinking for a long time, Gu Ke made up his mind, looked at Bai Suqing, and asked another question that he had been thinking about for many days: "Sister Bai, how strong are you?"

Bai Suqing's green eyes flickered, and she was silent for a long time before sighing: "It can barely be considered a round of three turns."

Barely? Considered? Gu Ke knew there must be something hidden when he heard this.

But after waiting for a while, Bai Suqing didn't speak again. He knew that the topic about her was over.

Nodding, Gu Ke stood up: "Let's go to the fields together. Whether we can survive depends on our luck."

Bai Suqing felt a little strange: This... is "us"?

Well, the small hut that appeared out of thin air is right under her, and she is invited to see the black soil that also appeared mysteriously. This "us" is really nothing wrong.

While thinking, the two walked out of the small hut, walked down the stone steps, walked around the stone platform, and not far away was a small piece of turned black soil.

Yesterday, Xiaoman tried to plant the hundreds of wheat that might survive here.

At this moment, Bai Suqing glanced around, and saw some green sprouts. She couldn't help but stare: "This is..."

Gu Ke squatted down, and the corners of his mouth gradually curled up, and finally turned into an uncontrollable smile: "It sprouted, it really sprouted."

Bai Suqing's breathing became rapid, and her calm mind was a little confused.

It has not been twelve hours since the wheat was planted yesterday.

Although she didn't do farming, she also knew common sense such as spring planting and autumn harvest. It takes several months from planting to harvesting.

The wheat grains in the field in front of her actually sprouted in less than a day. This speed is simply unbelievable.

After being stunned for a while, she barely collected her mind and asked: "Can we plant the second season before the food is out?"

If the first season can be harvested, then the problem of the second season becomes the key. After all, the ten or so seeds in the first season cannot make people full.

Gu Ke calculated and didn't speak for a while.

He had never planted before, and he didn't know how different this sprouting was from the normal situation. He couldn't just give Bai Suqing an answer.

She and he were similar people. They talked nonsense casually. If they made a mistake once, their trust would drop a lot.

At this moment, Xiaoman came back from the stream and saw the two standing in the field. He greeted them and trotted over: "What are you looking at? In this weather, it will take at least three to five days for wheat to sprout..."

Gu Ke raised his hand, motioning her to stop talking, and pointed to the field, asking her to look first.

Xiaoman quickened her pace, walked to Gu Ke's side, followed his line of sight, and suddenly opened her mouth and was stunned.

It was only when Gu Ke patted her that the young hired worker woke up, her face visibly flushed: "It's sprouted, it's only been a day?"

"Wait, why are these seedlings so big, it looks like they've been growing for several days?"

"That doesn't make sense, it's winter now, the sprouts will be much slower... By the way, it doesn't seem that cold in this field?"

Xiao Man looked at the two with a puzzled look, trying to confirm that her feeling was not wrong.

Gu Ke and Bai Suqing nodded at the same time: "It's really not that cold."

"It feels about the same as last month."

Xiaoman nodded, then shook her head: "But... it doesn't make sense that it's so fast, it's only been a day."

Gu Ke smiled and touched his head: "This is a little fairy field that I finally got. The food and vegetables planted in it will grow several times faster than other places."

Xiaoman opened her mouth wide: "How many times? Well, how long is it?"

Gu Ke: "... One day is equivalent to several days of ordinary fields, or even more than ten days."

Xiaoman's mouth was about to split: "This, this, this, how can it be so fast?"

Gu Ke slightly raised his head, pretending to be unfathomable and unspeakable, and whispered: "So, remember not to tell others."

Bai Suqing's mouth curled slightly: You actually used sweet words to deceive the young lady, why are you so skilled as a "fairy"?

Xiaoman knew the time of maturity, and she didn't delve into other things-it was given by the fairy, and the fairy is the greatest.

She just squatted down and checked the wheat seedlings one by one, smiling.

A quarter of an hour later, she gave the answer: If it continues to grow like this, the wheat may be harvested in ten days.

Xiaoman herself did not believe this answer, but Gu Ke asked her to estimate it according to the speed of germination, and the final wheat maturity time was like this.

Let the little girl mutter that this fairy field is too fast, how can the food grown be eaten up.

Gu Ke just smiled and communicated with Bai Suqing with his eyes: How about it, is this a ray of hope?

Bai Suqing pondered for a moment, nodded slightly, and shook his head again: Yes, but it is not safe enough.

Gu Ke turned his head and gestured to the Zuling Hall: Then you have to think of a way from the eldest lady.

Bai Suqing did not respond this time. After entering the small hut, he sat by the window and thought about it in his heart.

If this wheat can really be harvested in ten days, then all the first season can be used as seeds, and the second season can save more than ten people's lives. If there is a third season, we can also find a way to survive this winter.

If it really doesn't work, it's not impossible to fill the stomach with a mixture of grass and vines. This is how the poor people lived during the famine years.

If there is not too little food left, and even less wheat that can be used as seeds, I'm afraid we won't even have to survive the first ten days.

In this way, we only need to hold on for the first twenty days.

Although the food is small, if we prepare in advance and reduce consumption, people may not starve to death within twenty days, at most they will have no strength to move.

But it's useless for Bai Suqing to think of this by himself, and he still has to rely on the outstanding young lady.

A martial artist who has turned three times in one round is nothing, but a sixteen-year-old who has turned three times in one round and is from the top sect, the Lieyang Sect, is very scary.

As long as there is enough time, enough food and medicine to supplement, and she is willing to practice hard, two rounds and six rounds will not be the limit for the young lady.

Starting from the three-round martial sect, it is not impossible to become a great martial sect.

Gu Ke's intention was obviously the same as Bai Suqing's, and he wanted to win over the young lady.

It was not convenient for him to go to the young lady, but Bai Suqing could.

Therefore, this matter could only fall on her.

After thinking everything through, she did not rush to leave, but relaxed her mind and took a rest.
