Who knows! As soon as I returned to the mountains to farm, I encountered a natural disaster.

I don’t know what the situation is like in the woods over there.

The forest to the north is the direction from which the jackals evacuated last time, and the forest to the south below should be the direction from which the elephants came.

The elephant can come over, and so can other animals.

"Are you doubting that there is a way over there?"

Zhao Yeqing nodded, "Yes, in fact, although this ground crack has cut off many roads, just like when you crossed the entire mountain range back to Meishan to find me, there must be a way around, but you have to spend time to find it. .”

"The situation now is different from before. When I first came back, the ecological climate had not changed significantly. I basically knew all the animals in the mountains. There were not many dangerous animals I would encounter along the way. But it is different now. Everything is different. It’s all unknown.”

Mu Xi felt that Zhao Yeqing's idea was a bit risky, so he thought about it and said, "Are you trying to find something?"

"Yes." Zhao Yeqing pulled Mu Xi back to the room, took some paper and drew the directions. While drawing, he said: "Before, I didn't think it was necessary. I could just do farming by hand. But this year, maybe it's like what you said. Too much time can really make you tired.”

After drawing the map, her pen made a circle somewhere, "If I remember correctly, there is a gas station here."

Exploring a completely unfamiliar place at a time like this is indeed dangerous.

Zhao Yeqing also thought about it when he said it, but still chose to express his thoughts to Mu Xi.

"I have carefully calculated that the fuel consumption in our home can barely last ten or twenty years. The premise is that we save enough. In this year's situation, unless it is necessary to use the dehumidification function, I don't dare to feel stuffy. Turn on the air conditioner, and with such savings, solar power generation can barely support a day's electricity consumption."

When she said this, Mu Xi roughly understood her thoughts, "You are thinking that unless we can really endure this kind of life for a lifetime, we will have to go to this gas station sooner or later."

"That's what I mean, and it's only the early days now. If this rainforest climate continues, I don't even dare to think that something will appear in the forest in a few years. Only by sufficient supplies can we be more capable. Confidence.”

It's definitely slightly safer to go now than later.

At this time, Zhao Yeqing's mind was filled with the big python he saw in Yunwu Mountain. In a few years, no one could tell how many snakes of that size would appear.

After all, the biggest natural enemy of all living things is human beings, and what is most lacking around here now is also human beings. Without the threat of the biggest natural enemy, everything is uncontrollable.

"If we had enough resources, we might be able to achieve semi-automated agriculture. I remember there was a handheld harvester at the foot of the mountain. It had no other problems except that it consumed a lot of power."

Mu Xi smiled and said, "Okay, I'm convinced by you."

-

It's time to explore the road, but you can't be reckless, otherwise you will lose your life.

The two of them drove around in the mountains and forests for several days, checking out the situation while relaxing.

Since we have decided to take a rest, we should rest first and explore the road as a supplement.

Wild goats haven't appeared much recently. The two of them followed them several times but didn't notice any movement from them anymore, so they just rested at home.

Zhao Yeqing was used to having to do some work with his hands to feel comfortable. While watching TV series, he nailed the bird house with small wooden strips.

The nest of nightjars that was in the backyard has now expanded its population. During this period, the young birds were chirping in the backyard all day long. During the day, Zhao Yeqing often visited them and brought them some small bugs to plug their mouths.

The nighthawk's father and mother were quite wary of her at first, but over time they acquiesced to this feeding behavior.

Nighthawks usually sleep during the day, so Zhao Yeqing approached them gently. If there was a bird that was awake, it would open its mouth wide and wait for feeding.

No one can refuse to feed small animals. In the past, she would directly pay for the feed that cost dozens of yuan a portion at the zoo.

After a while, the bird's nest outgrew the bird's nest. The bird house that was placed under the eaves also moved in with the Swallow family. They still looked down upon the small branch bird's nest she placed in it. He took the mud in his mouth again and processed it again before settling down.

Zhao Yeqing has now made another bird house and hung it next to the Nighthawk family. In addition to eating mosquitoes, the Nighthawk can also collect a few larger feathers from time to time to use in arrows.

Although there are benefits to raising birds, you should not overdo it. There are many pathogens in their feces that are fatal. Birds metabolize very quickly. These bacteria have no effect on them, but humans cannot bear it.

She only planned to make this last birdhouse.

Mu Xi picked two bunches of grapes from outside and came in. Zhao Yeqing hurriedly went up to take a look. Seeing the juicy little grapes that were round and plump, he couldn't help but marveled: "It's incredible that we can still eat grapes."

Neither of them expected that the grape plant would still have blood left over. The seedlings that grew out at the beginning of spring last year have now filled the grape trellis again, and it took a year to bear sweet fruits again.

The aroma of mountain grapes is still as strong as ever, and the small size is very suitable for eating while watching a drama, just like eating melon seeds.

When Mu Xi saw her wandering expression while watching the show, he couldn't help but laugh: "Didn't you download this show yourself before the Earth Split? Are you being traumatized again?"

Speaking of this, Zhao Yeqing was speechless and choked up.

"I have an impression of this drama. I have read the original version of the drama adapted from the novel. It was right when I previewed it. The male and female protagonists are not bad looking. They are also very good-looking. But why did they look like this after it was filmed? Something."

In the past, forget it. If you couldn't stand it, you'd have to change it to something else. Today is different from the past. You can't restock it now. No matter how ugly it is, you have to keep watching it.

It feels like you've been slapped but you still have to step in and get slapped again.

Is she some kind of mean person?

Fortunately, there is still a 76-episode drama on her phone that she will never tire of watching all her life, which can heal her soul.

After finishing two bunches of grapes, Mu Xi went to pick a few more bunches and finally got a small pot of grape skins.

Zhao Yeqing saw him collecting all the grape skins and asked curiously, "What are they used for? Feeding the pigs?"

Mu Xi walked to the closet and took out a skirt, "Didn't you say a few days ago that this white skirt had been kept in the box for a long time and the stained areas due to moisture could not be washed away, so I thought about dyeing it purple for you. , it’s just a waste of grape skins.”

This is something new.

She had dyed her clothes with dragon fruit before, and the color faded a bit, but she had never tried it with grape skin.

"Do you know how to do this?"

"One of the popular experiences in mountain B&Bs in the past few years was fruit dyeing. Don't worry, the color will not fade when I dye it for you."
