No matter if you are a human or an immortal, you can still farm for me after traveling through time!
Chapter 144 Waiting! (page 12)
Today was another heavy rain that made it difficult to walk. Ji Qingyue was bored and nestled in the lounge chair, watching the hazy rain scene under the eaves of the second floor. There was also a plate of fruit on the low table at hand.
The dish contained washed cherries, bayberries, lychees, loquats, melons and grapes.
While Ji Qingyue was lying comfortably eating fruit, he felt sorry for the dead melons on the ground.
The fruit trees and fruit vines planted two years ago are finally bearing fruit one after another. He originally thought he would have to wait a little longer, but he didn't expect that they would suddenly bear fruit this year.
Since the fruit trees didn't bloom in the first year, and Ji Qingyue was busy farming, he no longer kept an eye on the fruit trees on the hillside.
The growth rate of the fruit seems to have remained unchanged after the growth period. It has not yet entered the fruiting stage, which made Ji Qingyue wait for two years.
In fact, Ji Qingyue discovered that the fruit trees turned out to be a complete accident. At that time, he was building a winding downward staircase from the top of the slope. He inadvertently glanced down and saw that there seemed to be more red, pink and rose colors among the green leaves of the cherry tree. round beads.
At first he was wondering what those were, but after taking another look he realized they were cherry fruits! !
He immediately dropped the tools in his hands and ran down with joy. Only when he came to the woods did he realize that not only the cherries were bearing fruit! !
The branches of bayberry, lychee and loquat have long been covered with fruits, green and red, as if they have just begun to mature!
There are bunches of green grapes hanging quietly on the grape rack, which have not yet grown up.
The melons were in dire straits. Ji Qing walked carefully into the field and found that a large area of melons had already rotted in the ground. Only a few of them had survived until now. His heart was bleeding when he saw the rotten melons all over the ground!
When the yellow-green melons are ripe, they are obscured by dense vine leaves, making them difficult to spot. The lush weeds in the field make it even more difficult to see.
The more Ji Qing died, he never thought that the melons had grown silently long ago. At first, he thought that these dead-living canes could not bear fruit!
He picked all the surviving melons, then peeled away the thick layers of vine leaves in the ground, and piled them aside for fertilization. Then he saw the overripe rotten melons left in the ground. At first, A batch of mature melons have completely "fallen their leaves and returned to their roots" and sprouted new shoots in place.
Only then did Ji Qingyue realize that it was not that the melons had not matured, nor that the melon vines were "living and dying", but that the melon vines had produced fruit in the first year, but he had not paid attention to it, and instead focused on On the fruit trees and grapes, I forgot about the melon that was always attached to the ground. When it was buried by weeds, I couldn't even remember it.
The melon vine bears fruit, the vine withers and the fruit rots. The seeds fall into the ground and take root, sprouting and growing into a second crop of melon vine. The cycle continued until the fruit trees sprouted, and these melons that had been rotten for several crops were finally remembered by Ji Qingyue.
Ji Qingyue held the melon in his hands. It was a bit ripe and the texture changed from crisp to soft and glutinous. Fortunately, the sweetness was very high and the sweet taste was refreshing.
Cherries, lychees and bayberries all start to bear fruit in July, melons are earlier and ripen in May, and grapes are the latest and bear fruit in August.
It has been more than ten days since Li Erlang set out to hunt deer, and it is now the end of August.
Ji Qingyue was very excited at the beginning, but now he feels a little lack of energy. He has no acquaintances to chat with, and the only person he knows is the old bamboo craftsman from the bamboo crafts shop.
He unintentionally took over the domineering behavior of the entire Miejiang shop, and accidentally solved the urgent need of Lao Miejiang's family. It turned out that Lao Miejiang's son was sick, and he was anxious to use money to treat the illness, so he bought it as soon as he came. Most of the goods in the shop were ready-made, and there was not much negotiation on the price, which was equivalent to giving the old bamboo pole a timely help. Later, the old bamboo craftsman happily dug up a large cart of bamboo for Ji Qingyue. These days, when Ji Qingyue doesn’t know where he is going, he will Go sit with the old bamboo pole maker for a while.
Over time, his relationship with Lao Mianjiang became much closer.
We can't finish all the fruits on the tree in a while. The melon is almost rotten. What should we do with the other fruits? Ji Qingyue thought about it while eating, and thought that when the rain stopped, he should take some to the old bamboo craftsman.
The rain is pouring down, and the water is flowing again. This kind of rain is very common in the south. Ji Qingyue himself doesn't have any discomfort, but he can't help but worry about Li Erlang who is hunting deer in the mountains and forests. The heavy rain will wash away many traces. I wonder how they are doing now.
Ji Qingyue's worries came true, and Li Erlang's progress in the mountains was very unsatisfactory.
The first rain lasted only one day and one night. As Old Man He said, there were several cracks under the lake, which would draw the water from the lake into the ground from time to time.
While standing on the stone wall waiting, Li Erlang saw several large whirlpools appearing on the lake at the same time.
It is precisely because of the several cracks at the bottom of the lake that the boundary of the lake does not expand too much. After heavy rain day and night, the lake level did not rise much.
On the contrary, Zhao Qiguang and the others never came near the lake, maybe because of the heavy rain.
The narrow stone wall was covered with water, and the bonfires and firewood on the ground had already been soaked by the heavy rain. In order to avoid the rain, Li Erlang and Mr. He had to stand against the stone wall.
The next day, the sky finally cleared up. Looking up, the sky washed by the rain was azure. The rain did not disturb the lake water. The lake water under the clear sky was clear and green, and every aquatic plant in the water was floating with the waves. The whole lake was beautiful. The lake is like a green jade pendant embedded in the valley.
When the rain stopped, Li Erlang and He Laowen quickly put out the rain-wet things to dry.
This heavy rain not only wetted their dry food, but also their clothes.
After drying their things, the two of them could finally go out and look for the traces left by the elk. Although the traces had probably been washed away, they still wanted to take a look anyway.
Old He and Li Erlang climbed half of the mountain and came to a tree with marks. The two lowered their heads and searched again and again. They found no traces such as hoofprints. They could confirm that the traces left by the elk were real. All washed away.
Li Erlang only felt disappointed, but not discouraged. When he was about to ask Old Man He what to do next, he turned around and saw that Old Man He had gone elsewhere and was looking at something solemnly.
"Old man, what's wrong?" Li Erlang walked over, and when he saw the marks on the tree trunk clearly, his expression changed.
What caught Old Man He's attention was the mark on a tree trunk. The mark was fresh.
Old Man He compared it with his hands and answered with certainty: "This is the 'sky hanging' of the big insect. The so-called 'sky hanging' means the claw marks made by the big bug on the tree, which means this is the big bug's territory."
Li Erlang could also smell a faint odor, which should be the smell left intentionally by the big insect.
Although Mr. He wanted to give up this operation, he knew it was impossible. Zhao Qiguang needed two elk as a betrothal to marry the daughter of Yuezhou governor.
"The person who married Mr. Zhao was not the concubine of the governor, but the concubine, but the betrothal gift was also very harsh..."
Two elk? !
Old Man He was so worried that he just sighed. The traces of the elk were washed away, but now the traces of the big insect were found. What should we do? !
"Xianglang, there are no traces of the elk now. We have to go back to the lake and wait. While waiting to meet the young master, we also hope that the elk will come to the lake."
So the two had no choice but to return the same way they came. After waiting for another day, another old hunter finally led Zhao Qiuguang and his party to the lake.
