Chapter 26: Planting potatoes and digging hard.
Nanxing returned to the farm with some of the things she collected, and killed a zombie with a hoe.
Fortunately, no one saw her as she hoeed the zombie to death with a ferocious expression, and the zombie's head was smashed to pieces by her hoe.
And the biggest thing she was carrying was a zombie corpse.
She planned to use the zombies she killed to create a circle around the farm to see if she could make the zombies avoid this area.
Discarding the zombies on the ground, Nan Xing used the key to open the door and returned to the house.
She wanted to treat the wound on her hand. Although it was very minor, she still couldn't be careless in a place like this.
Speaking of the most rewarding thing about following those players on this trip, after the space, what made her happiest the most was the 18-inch medical kit.
It is filled with commonly used medical resources for first aid, such as iodophor, band-aid, band-aid, gauze, etc.
Nanxing used a little bit of water left over from drinking in the morning to clean the palms of her hands, applied iodophor with a cotton swab, and wrapped a bandage around it.
It might be a bit too exaggerated, but Nan Xing thought it was better to be cautious, after all, the skin was broken and bleeding.
Next, Nanxing is going to purify the collected water first.
After all, it has been left in the forest for so many days, and the materials for purifying water are all readily available.
Charcoal, grass and moss, sand, small stones, plus medical cotton balls from the medical kit.
Cut a mineral water bottle in half and a simple water purification device is ready in no time.
From the bottom layer upward, there are cotton balls, grass, moss, charcoal, sand, small stones.
After doing this, Nanxing put it aside and ignored it for the time being. After the water was purified, she could bake a pancake and eat it with a little tomato and cheese sausage, which was delicious.
Speaking of which, Nanxing's previous experiment failed. Plants placed in the space will not grow, but they will not die either.
Now she placed the tomato seedlings on the balcony, as well as the unknown grass.
She also specially wrapped the balcony with cloth and simply sealed it so that nothing on the balcony could be seen from the outside.
Putting a candy in her mouth, Nan Xing hummed a little tune and went outside to bring back some hay.
The farm doesn't have a lot of anything but hay.
Nan Xing sat on a chair, lit the hay with a lighter, and then started cutting potatoes.
This is also the method she learned on the video platform.
She originally worked in a second-tier city. A small social worker like her would usually have a pastoral dream.
It's a pity that she live in a city and can't live in the countryside. She usually like to watch videos of rural life such as planting, breeding and cooking.
The potatoes on her hand were relatively small, cut into three or two parts, wrapped in plant ash, and planted with the buds facing down.
If possible, spread some fertilizer, but if she doesn't, she won't.
Taking the cut potatoes, Nan Xing went to the small sealed balcony on the second floor, sprinkled all the soil in the shopping cart, and picked out the small stones inside.
Only a thin layer.
Nanxing stared at the soil that was less than one centimeter thick. Potatoes would definitely not be planted in this way.
She needs to go to the forest again, there is space, and she can bring back more soil.
It's a pity that she doesn't have enough seeds, otherwise it would be good to use the first floor of the elderly room with the best view for planting.
She didn't dare to plant things outside because it would be eye-catching, and it would be terrible if a player or NPC saw it.
The second is zombies. Zombies will be randomly spawned in the farm. If they are destroyed a little bit, there will be no place to cry.
Nan Xing pulled two sheets from the room where he never slept, and brought a wheelchair and a stroller with him.
She planned to do it all at once and fill the room with soil. Although she couldn't plant it all, she could plant some tomatoes first.
Seven tomatoes should be able to sprout a lot of sprouts.
When she went downstairs, she added some water to the water purifier. Nanxing locked the door and headed to the forest.
Time passed quickly, and by the time she went out again, it was already past one in the afternoon, almost two o'clock.
It would be nice to get a bicycle.
Nanxing shook her head and came to a place with very dense leaves. The soil here should be more fertile.
"That's over there-" Nan Xing squinted her eyes, and she seemed to see a fruit tree.
It is also full of fruits.
Nan Xing put down her tools and walked closer to look up.
"It's apricot!" Her eyes lit up, and she actually found a fruit tree that had begun to bear fruit.
However, it is a pity that it has just begun to bear fruit now, and it will take some time before it matures.
She guess she have to wait a month or two.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak,"
Two small animals were standing on the tree, looking at Nanxing curiously.
"Monkeys and squirrels, this place must be rich in resources."
As long as you have a pair of eyes that are good at discovery, at least you will not lack food and drink.
Nan Xing has relaxed a lot. From the current point of view, it is not difficult to survive.
If you don't meet the player.
Nanxing opened two candies and placed them under the tree, hoping to please the monkey and squirrel. Once they got to know each other better, she might be able to touch where they hid their food.
If possible, she would like to have a dog.
Although food expenses will increase, safety will be higher.
Nanxing's feelings towards animals are average. She doesn't particularly like or dislike them. She wants to keep dogs because they are useful, and trying to please monkey and squirre also feels useful.
The monkey and squirrel did not move, still staring at Nanxing from the tree. Nanxing ignored them, but took out a pen and paper and started to draw a simple map.
From the farm to the forest, birch trees and newly discovered almond trees are marked and recorded on the map.
"The cabin should also be noted. By the way, I haven't gone to the cabin to see it yet. I have to go there tomorrow." Nan Xing said to herself and drew another house pattern on the map.
She quite hoped to find some useful herbs, such as Noda Seven.
The effect of Noda Seven is very good in stopping bleeding. It likes to grow in the front and back of houses. It is not available on the farm, so shecan only try her luck in the cabin.
Closing the diary with a 'snap', Nanxing picked up the hoe and started working.
There was not much time left, it would be dark soon, and she had to get back to the farm before dark.
Tomorrow she will start reinforcing the house and surrounding areas.
Waving her sore arms, Nan Xing couldn't help but sigh, "I'm so tired."
Pastoral life is not that easy either.
She don't know when, the two candies under the tree were taken away by the little monkey and the little squirrel.
The two of them were licking the candy while watching Nanxing's hard work.
...
It wasn't until the sun began to set that the forest began to look a little weird, and all kinds of rustling sounds could be heard. Nanxing returned to the farm with fertile soil and rotten leaves filled with cars and wheelchairs.
