Infinite Disaster Survival.

The process of moving the iron tree was really difficult. Wen Zheng struggled to pull the thick and heavy iron tree. The uneven ground caused great obstacles, and sometimes it was necessary to use an ax to cut off the vines and shrubs blocking the way. There are huge boulders blocking the road, just go around carefully.

Wen Zheng pulled the iron wood and was blocked by the bushes again. There was no open space to bypass in his sight, so he could only pick up an ax and cut down a bush.

While concentrating on cutting bushes, he heard several similar calls from a distance. Wen Zheng looked up and saw three flying birds.

They are very similar in appearance, one of them is the largest, with dazzling feathers, and even the sound of singing is particularly crisp, and the other two are directly reduced to the foil.

Seeing the three birds talking, Wen Zheng became nervous, thinking of parents who were worried about their children being abducted. At the same time, there was a sense of pride that the children he raised were indeed the most beautiful.

The other two birds are obviously of the same family as Tuantuan. They are one big and one small, and one has bright feathers and the other has dull feathers. According to the rule that male birds are more beautiful than female birds in nature, these two should be a young couple.

I don't know what the three birds were talking about. The calls didn't last long. After a while, Tuantuan spread his wings and flew back. The figures of the other two birds disappeared into the forest.

Tuantuan took the initiative to get into the bamboo basket to rest, and Wen Zheng began to ramble: "Tuantuan, you can't run away with other birds, or I will be sad. If you want to find a companion someday, you can abduct the other birds back."

Wen Zheng babbled all the way, and Tuantuan occasionally tweeted, as if responding.It took nearly two hours before Wen Zheng pulled the piece of iron wood to the edge of the new bamboo forest.

The area of ​​the newly discovered bamboo forest is also not small. Wen Zheng didn't want to waste time, so he took out Tuantuan from the bamboo basket and asked him for help: "Tuantuan, go and see which area in this bamboo forest is blooming."

When climbing up a tree in the forest, Wen Zheng saw the peculiarity of the newly discovered bamboo forest.Most of the bamboos are lush and verdant, and the bamboo leaves are verdant and clustered together. Only one area is bare, and the few bamboo leaves are a little yellow, and the whiteness that the bamboo leaves cannot cover is very obvious. .

The moment he saw that area, Wen Zheng thought of the stories he heard from the old man when he was a child.The old man always has all kinds of stories, and there will be children who love to listen to the stories around, and these stories will be printed in their minds.

"In the past, it was said that when bamboo blooms, move immediately. Bamboos don't bloom easily, and they will die after blooming. So it is said that when bamboo blooms, it is a harbinger of disaster, and you need to move quickly." The old man sat in the shade of a tree. On the rocking chair under the bed, pointing in the direction of the bamboo forest, the old voice spoke slowly.

The children who listened to the story had never seen a bamboo blossom, and many of them didn't know what disaster meant.They sat on small chairs and chatted about what color flowers the bamboo would bloom.

The old man looked at them with a smile, and waited until the children couldn't discuss the answer to ask him, and then continued: "What I said just now is wrong."

"Wrong?" The children shouted out with wide eyes and surprise.

"It was my grandfather who told me that bamboo blossoms symbolize disasters. I have believed it for most of my life. Later, a teacher came to the village and told me that this statement is wrong, so you should obediently listen to the teacher's lecture." The old man said happily. Hehe said, "Just like the rice planted in the village, the bamboo will bear fruit after it blooms. Although the old bamboo will die, new bamboo will grow when the fruit falls to the ground and sprouts."

The children nodded with half-knowledge, and a little girl raised her head and asked, "Third Grandfather, what color of flowers does the bamboo bloom in the end?"

The old man took out white toffee from his pocket and handed it out to the children: "The flowers that just opened are white, just like this toffee."

Wen Zheng regained consciousness from the memories, looked up at Tuantuan leading him to this area, and there were dense white flowers among the withered and yellow bamboo leaves.The breeze blew, and many flowers fell from the branches, falling to the ground and mixing with the fallen bamboo leaves.

Bamboo is really blooming!

What makes people excited is not the flowering, but the fruit after flowering, which is commonly known as bamboo rice.

Legend has it that the phoenix would not live in anything other than a phoenix tree, would not eat anything other than bamboo, and would not drink water unless it was a sweet spring.This bamboo refers to bamboo rice, just thinking about it, you know that the taste will not be bad.Wen Zheng missed the taste of rice for a long time. He thought he had to wait patiently until the sown rice matured, but he didn't expect to find the surprise of bamboo rice in advance.

Looking up and wandering around in these flowering bamboo forests, the sun dazzled enough to see spots of light. Wen Zheng had to admit with regret that these bamboos may have just bloomed and have not yet borne fruit, so they need to wait patiently for a while.

"Tuantuan is back home! These bamboos haven't grown bamboo rice yet, let's come back later." Wen Zheng was about to go back, but found that Tuantuan didn't know where he was going, so he could only call out to the children who were running around.

Tuantuan quickly flew back through the gap in the bamboo forest, but he was unwilling to enter the bamboo basket, but flew in one direction while pecking at the corner of Wen Zheng's clothes.

"Did you find something over there?" Wen Zheng walked towards the direction pointed by Tuantuan.Some birds are very smart. These days, Tuantuan has shown a high IQ. Wen Zheng was surprised at first, but later it was attributed to the species and his own raising.

Following behind Tuantuan, away from the flowering area, and approaching another area with dense bamboo leaves, Wen Zheng couldn't believe his eyes.

The surprise was so sudden, I never expected to find another delicious ingredient when I discovered bamboo rice not long after.

On the ground of the bamboo forest, a special kind of mushroom is quietly growing. This kind of mushroom can be said to be the most beautiful mushroom.

Think about it, in the green bamboo forest, little fairies wearing black hats, red boots, and white net gauze skirts gather together, making people reluctant to pick them.

This kind of mushroom is bamboo fungus, an edible fungus that grows in bamboo forests, and was listed as one of the eight treasures of grass in ancient times.

Wen Zheng was so happy now that he wanted to hug Tuantuan and kiss him fiercely. If Tuantuan hadn't found out, he probably wouldn't have come here.

But if you want to eat bamboo fungus, you still have to wait. Now the bamboo fungus in the bamboo forest cannot be picked.

The growth time of bamboo fungus is not short. It takes more than ten days from the fungus buds to the surface to mature, but the maturation time is very short.

Usually in the early morning of each day, the bamboo fungus that have been exposed to the ground for more than ten days begin to open their skirts.After noon, the fungus skirt and stipe begin to shrink, and at dusk they fall to the ground and begin to rot.

Wen Zheng came too late, a few bamboo fungus had already fallen to the ground, and the rest hadn't opened their skirts yet.However, there are still many immature bamboo shoots in this area, which are still a kind of egg-like mushroom eggs.

The same batch of bamboo fungus all matured within a short period of time, and the rest should have matured in the last few days.Pulling Tie Mu and leaving a mark as he walked, Wen Zheng planned to come over to pick bamboo fungus in the morning for the next few days, and he must not let go of this delicacy.

After coming out of the bamboo forest, the plants on the ground became rarer, and it became much easier to transport iron wood.After pulling this piece of iron wood home, Wen Zheng unwrapped the rotten leaves wrapped around his hands, and found that the calluses on his hands were all rubbed red.

At this moment, he just wanted to have a good sleep, and he didn't even bother to make delicious food, so he cooked some bacon soup and lay down on the bed to rest.

From this day on, Wen Zheng started his great career of farming.The plan was perfect, but it was really not that simple to do, especially the two hands with the two arms, which extended to the shoulders and neck, were sore and sore.

According to the impression of farming in his childhood, Wen Zheng marked out a square area near the cave. All the stones on the ground needed to be removed, and the weeds growing on it had to be cleaned up.

Stones are easy, but weeds are a bit more difficult.The ax was too heavy to use, so Wen Zheng used the bamboo knife he made to cut down the grass, and only used the ax when it couldn't be cut.

It took Wen Zheng a whole day just to clean it up, which made his waist sore and his back ache.

The cut weeds were placed on the original land and let the sun dry. While waiting for the weeds to dry, Wen Zheng was busy processing the iron wood that was brought back.

The first thing to do is the hoe.Usually, a household hoe is composed of two parts, one part is used to hoe the ground, the long and flat hoe blade is usually made of iron, and the other part is the hoe handle used to hold the hand, which is round and long. wooden stick.Usually the part of the handle of the hoe is longer, because the principle of leverage is less labor-saving, and the user does not have to bend too hard.

Wen Zheng already has a full understanding of the hardness of iron wood. He is not going to challenge the highest difficulty. Instead, he makes the hoe blade and hoe handle separately. The hoe blade is made of iron wood, and the hoe handle is made of ordinary round wooden sticks of suitable size , no additional processing is required.

First cut the iron wood into the approximate shape of a hoe blade, and after a lot of effort, the hoe blade is thicker and wider than a normal hoe, more like a thicker version of a shovel.

After the hoe blade was finished, Wen Zheng also selected a wooden stick suitable for the hoe handle, and wanted to combine the two kinds together.

Choose a suitable position on the hoe blade, and turn it carefully with the sharp edge of the axe. It took several hours just to turn empty. Come out to the small hole and widen until the stick fits snugly inside.

As for the wooden plow, it is even more troublesome to make. Some family members in the village have never been willing to throw away the wooden plow, so they put it in the yard and were taken out by his children to play. Wen Zheng also tried it.

Wen Zheng has never learned carpentry, so he can only make the simplest one according to his impression. Those that need to be in close contact with the land are made of hard iron wood, and the rest are made of ordinary wood.The wooden plows made may not be as useful as those made by professional carpenters, but they are always more convenient and labor-saving than manual plowing.

It took one day to clear the wasteland, two days to make the axe, and a full week to make the plow.Of course, while busy with these things, Wen Zheng would go up the mountain every morning to pick fresh bamboo fungus, and then observe the progress of bamboo flowering.

However, there are no bamboo rats living in this bamboo forest. Perhaps the distance between the two sides is a bit far, and the mountain forest in the middle and the wild boars and pythons in the forest prevent them from moving.

Wen Zheng planned to catch a few bamboo rats alive one day. It would be too difficult to raise them by himself, but it is still possible to change them to a closer living environment. In the future, if you want to catch bamboo rats, you don't have to travel so far.

Satisfied, he placed the finished hoe and wooden plow outside the cave, Wen Zheng pressed his sore arm, then recalled the Tai Chi and Military Boxing he learned in college physical education class, and randomly did his own supplementary version twice, Come and move the body that is sitting stiff.

On the day of survival on a deserted island, Wen Zheng finished the work of making farm tools.He walked into the well-stocked cave and rummaged through the fresh ingredients he had obtained in the past few days to make today's lunch.

The author has something to say: One update!Two more try to catch up with twelve o'clock.

*The phoenix does not live in anything other than a phoenix tree, it does not eat anything other than bamboo, it does not drink from a pure spring.
