MTL - The State Arranged For Me To Farm-Chapter 100 Second watch
Lin Ling looked outside the fence with a binoculars, and vaguely saw a figure in the lush vegetation, but it disappeared when he looked closely.
She frowned slightly, slid down from the viewing platform neatly, and beckoned to the starling who was wiping his nosebleed, "Go and see if there is anyone outside the fence, pay attention to concealment, and don't startle the snake."
The starling raised its wings, saluted like the soldiers in the TV series, and then flapped its wings and flew out of the city.
Two minutes later, the starling flew back: "Boss, there is a woman outside, she is stealing the grass we planted to eat."
Steal grass to eat?
Are there still people who can't get enough to eat? Lin Ling walked outside the fence, "I'll go and have a look."
When she climbed over the wall and went outside, she crossed the dirt road full of cosmos and walked to the outermost place where the grass and trees were planted. She successfully found the down-and-out woman who was wolfing down, with a mulberry face and ragged clothes, looking like People who are still seeking life in the last days: "Who are you?"
The appearance of Lin Ling greatly frightened the woman. She stood up in a panic and backed away tremblingly.
"I planted these." Lin Ling's meaning was obvious.
The woman stammered and said sorry, then turned around and fled in the direction she came from.
Lin Ling didn't catch up, and watched the woman run away coldly, and only looked away when she disappeared without a trace.
Xiaolu, who climbed onto Lin Ling's shoulder, arched her neck: just let her go like this?
Lin Ling asked back, "Why don't you give me a beating?"
Little Green nodded.
"No need." Looking at the woman's distressed appearance, Lin Ling couldn't help but think of her pitiful appearance in the apocalypse, which was sallow and emaciated due to lack of food. Now that the apocalypse has been over for a few years, the relationship between people is not as tense as in the apocalypse , the kindness in her heart grew a little more, as long as this woman didn't come over again, she wouldn't act too aggressively.
Lin Lingjiang took a look at the place where the leaves were removed. Now the vegetation is very lush, and he can't see anything unusual after picking a few leaves, so he didn't care anymore, and took Xiaolu back to the enclosure.
Xia Moli, who was guarding behind the fence door, asked, "Sister, who is it?"
Lin Ling said, "A woman passing by was hungry and came to steal our leaves."
"Then she must be very hungry." Xia Mo also had a similar experience, and said with emotion.
Lin Ling hummed, and looked lightly at the lush grass and woods around her. She was also very moved in her heart. Before she knew it, her place had become a small oasis. It would be more perfect if it was surrounded by streams. .
She looked up at the gray sky, thinking about the ditches inside and outside the wall, when would it rain to fill them up?
Feeling that everything is still far away, Lin Ling couldn't help but sighed, "Go back first."
Xia Mo hummed, and followed Lin Ling bouncingly towards the yard. He stopped and looked at a certain hillside with disbelief, "Hungry, IE, there is something open!" They spread their wings and fly like starlings, are they birds?"
Lin Ling hummed, "Anyone that can fly can be regarded as a bird."
"What's wrong?"
After getting a definite answer, Xia Mo pointed to the direction of the hillside and shouted excitedly: "Sister, a bird has flown up there."
"Bird?" Lin Ling looked in the direction Mo Xia pointed, "Where is it?"
"Flew to the hillside where we planted wild sweet potatoes in March." Mo Xia excitedly shouted: "Sister, do we have birds here?"
When the mynah on the side heard Xia Mo saying that a bird flew into its paradise, the whole bird exploded, "Shameless wild bird, dare to steal my fruit!"
The mynah swears and flies towards the hillside planted with March bubbles.
Lin Ling looked at the starling Feiyuan's figure, then turned to look at Xia Mo: "Did it steal mulberry again these days?"
"Sister, Mynah often picks mulberries secretly." Xia Mo didn't want to sue, it was exposed by itself and had nothing to do with him.
Xiaolu also helped to make a fuss: mynah likes to steal fruit too much, let's drive him away!
Brother Chou let out a bark: If you drive it away, you can still find your way back.
Xiaolu: Then break the leg! I've never had a bird's leg!
Brother Ugly barked: There is no meat in the bird's leg, but there is more meat in the chicken leg.
Chun Mian, who hadn't had time to leave, shivered, squatted down silently, and hid her beautiful thick chicken legs with fluffy feathers. Its big chicken legs were not tasty at all.
Lin Ling ignored Xiaolu and the others, turned around and walked towards the hillside planted with March bubbles and mulberries. Weeds were overgrown on the hillside, and there were March bubbles sprouting and rooting everywhere.
She carefully avoided the thorny branches and leaves, and went around to the place where the wild mulberries were planted. The starling flapped its wings and chased several sparrows, jumping up and down between the mulberry branches and leaves, chirping non-stop.
"Brother, come back." Lin Ling stopped the starling to continue chasing sparrows.
The mynah fluttered its wings and landed on the branch next to Lin Ling, "Boss, these birds are shameless, just build a nest here secretly, and they even picked red mulberries to peck, it really **** me off."
Lin Ling looked at the little sparrow hiding in the branches and leaves of a few mulberry plants more than ten meters ahead, "Where did it come from?"
The starling said: "They come from the hometown of the chicken ancestors."
Xia Mo asked curiously: "Mynah, how do you know?"
Starling: "Because they call me a rogue."
"..." Lin Ling laughed speechlessly, mynah doesn't have much skill, and he is the number one troublemaker.
"Boss, I will drive them all away!" The starling flapped his wings and prepared to chase the sparrow again, but was stopped by Lin Ling, "There is no need to drive them away, just let them stay here."
"Sister, why did you keep them?" Mo Xia couldn't figure it out, "They are not mutant beasts."
Starling: "I know, I raise them to eat."
Lin Ling shook her head: "If you don't eat it, keep it."
The starling quit, "Boss, these little sparrows will steal your mulberries again, let's roast them and eat them."
Lin Ling snorted, "Is it okay to roast you, and sprinkle some chili powder and pepper powder."
The starling immediately said no: "Boss, am I still your beloved little baby?"
After finishing speaking, the starling replied by himself, "Oh, I am not."
"It's quite self-aware." Lin Ling smiled, and said to Xia Mo and the others: "They came here to build nests and live here, which indirectly proves that our vegetation and water sources are sufficient for them to survive."
"Let them stay, it's just that we need to pay more attention to the crops in the field in the future, so as not to be pecked away by them." Lin Ling paused, "By the way, let's pick the mature mulberries first, and we will pick them up first. Otherwise, we may not be able to eat in the future."
Xia Mo understood what Lin Ling meant, "I'll pick it right away."
While picking them, Xia Mo said, "Sister, if we plant more weeds and trees, will more small animals come to live with us in the future?"
"That's right." Lin Ling picked up a piece of wild grass to stimulate a large number of branches and leaves, and simply wove it into a small basket to hold mulberries.
Xia Mo said: "Then I will continue to plant grass outside later."
Of course Lin Ling agreed.
Nowadays, weeds are multiplying more and more, and many hillsides are densely covered with weeds, which can be properly transplanted to the outside of the wall.
"Mynah brought back some tree seeds a few days ago, and we will take them out to plant together later." Lin Ling looked at the mulberries on the branches, and tiptoed to pick them. Each one was very big, purple red, and smelled a little A strong sweet and sour taste.
There are not many ripe mulberries, and sparrows and starlings ate a lot of them. Lin Ling and Xia Mo only picked dozens of ripe mulberries. The ripe mulberries are full of juice and purple in appearance. Press lightly and forcefully It was broken, and the finger was stained with color, and it looked like it was bleeding.
Xia Mo licked the mulberry juice on his hand and pointed to the front: "Sister, there are yellow mulberries over there."
"That shouldn't be called mulberry." Lin Ling dug up wild fruit trees such as mulberry, Sanyue bubble, prickly pear, etc., with some other wild fruits mixed in.
The common name of the wild fruit at the end of summer is Huangpaoer. It looks like a raspberry. The color of the fruit is yellow, only the size of a fingernail, round, and the taste is sweet and sour.
No matter what it is called at the end of Xia, he thinks it is delicious anyway, "Then I will pick it."
Lin Ling warned: "Go pick it, be careful of thorns."
After picking for a while, they picked almost half of the basket before leaving the woods, and then the two returned home. After returning home, they washed and washed the fruits, and you and I ate them one by one.
The quantity is not much and it will be eaten up quickly.
After eating, Lin Ling carried a **** and went to plant trees outside the fence. In the afternoon, he found someone driving over again.
"Is that the person from the morning?" Mo Xia worriedly looked at the direction of the car.
Lin Ling took a closer look and said, "No."
Xia Mo: "Who is that?"
"They are from the safe zone." Lin Ling stood by the side of the road holding a hoe, looking at Lu Yu and the others who drove up, "Captain Lu, why did you come here?"
Before Lu Yu, who was driving the car, could speak, Duan Hu in the back seat poked his head out. He smiled and looked at Lin Ling: "Do you know what day it is today?"
Lin Ling shook her head and said she didn't know: "What date?"
Duan Hu immediately said: "Today is January 1st, the New Year."
After the apocalypse, Lin Ling seldom pays attention to the time and date, and has always pursued the habit of working from sunrise to sunset, so when he suddenly heard that it was New Year, he was stunned for a moment: "New Year?"
"Yes, it's the New Year." Duan Hu got out of the car and said to Lin Ling, "I'm here to wish you a happy New Year."
How long has it been since she heard such New Year greetings? Lin Ling smiled and said to Duan Hu, "Thank you, and I wish you a happy new year too."
After finishing speaking, she smiled and said to Lu Yu who was beside her, "Captain Lu, Happy New Year."
Lu Yu smiled back, "Happy New Year."
Duan Hu looked at the smiling captain suspiciously, when did his captain become so easy-going?
