Chapter 211 Searching
Zhao Yeqing immediately shook his head.
"I definitely don't want to go out now. There's no sound on the radio, and even the radio can't work properly. I don't know what kind of chaos is happening outside. We can be self-sufficient in the mountains, so don't go out to eat relief food and add burden to the country. "
She recorded today's planting notes and put the pen cap back on the pen tip.
"However, when it becomes more stable, you still have to go out. You can't spend your whole life being a caveman."
Mu Xi stood up with the drawing, "I'm going to chop down the trees now. I'll make the beehive as soon as possible and then continue to explore the road. When I get back to Meishan, I'll bring the generator back to charge your mobile phone. I'll try to prevent you from becoming a caveman." .”
Zhao Yeqing hung the shotgun on his back and patted his shoulder, "Go, the continuation of human civilization depends on you."
After saying that, she turned around and walked out of the yard to the fields.
She depends on her for the food at home.

After the rice heads, water can no longer be released into the rice fields and must be drained.
There was no water covering the rice fields, and weeds began to grow wildly in the rice fields without any hindrance.
Spring rains come from time to time, and every time the rain stops, Zhao Yeqing has to spend the whole morning pulling grass in the rice fields.
She felt tired and panicked at first, but then she got used to it. Anyway, she was very free. After pulling the weeds in the field, she still had the energy to go to the pasture and continue pulling weeds.
In the past, when planting pasture, she didn't even pay attention to pulling out the weeds. Now that there are no traces of wolves on the meadow, she comes and walks around when she has nothing to do. When herding cattle, she also pulls out some weeds in the pasture.
You can see the difference between pulling weeds and not pulling weeds from the grass circle.
The grass seeds in the pasture field and the grass circle were planted at the same time. The ryegrass in the grass circle is now only more than ten centimeters high, while the ryegrass in the pasture field is almost 30 centimeters tall.
Still growing thick and strong.
She recently went back and forth to the meadow and found that the deer that came from near the snow-covered mountain peaks have not returned yet, and the meadow is full of signs of being eaten.
Zhao Yeqing followed Rhubarb to find a suitable grazing route. The previous place had been gnawed away by the deer.
But nature has its own laws. Although deer have come to the meadow, which has reduced the grass on the meadow, their fur and feces have brought different plant seeds here.
Zhao Yeqing found some medicinal materials that were not available last year near the ramie field. They were all types that sika deer would eat. They probably brought those seeds.
After finding a place where the sheep could graze, Zhao Yeqing went to the place where the deer had grazed and 'picked up'.
In addition to the fungi that can be found in the woods, there are also many found on the meadows. Zhao Yeqing can pick up a few while walking.
But her target wasn't the fungi, but the daylilies that the deer didn't eat.
Daylilies contain alkaloids that can be poisonous to deer if eaten, so she only needs to look at the areas on the meadow that have been eaten by deer, and then go directly to find the remaining taller plants to find the right one.
You don’t have too much day lily, it’s delicious fresh or dried, and it’s perfect when used to make soup.
When they were almost finished picking, they walked back. As soon as they reached the pasture, they saw Mu Xi placing the finished beehives on the edge of the pasture.
"It looks like the alfalfa will bloom in a few days. I'll go check on the bee trap tomorrow to see if it's in good condition."
Zhao Yeqing opened the beehive and saw pieces of partition-like things inside.
Mu Xi explained, "It is used to build a hive for bees. It is made of hexagonal hive grids and is used to store pollen and make honey."
The structure of the beehive is very complicated, and he only made a rough outline. The rest can only be prayed for the bees to adapt themselves.
The next morning Mu Xi went to check the bee bucket, but found nothing in it.
Zhao Yeqing gave up, "I won't do it anymore. After the alfalfa blooms, just smear some syrup on the edge of the beehive. I don't believe that the bees attracted by the alfalfa field can resist the temptation of this syrup."
Now that was all he could do. Mu Xi washed the bee trap bucket and dried it before putting it into the newly built tool room.
The tool room was not built in the front yard, but next to the bathroom, so that it would not hinder the subsequent expansion of the sheep pen.
Mu Xi prepared his backpack for the mountain, "Then I will continue to explore the way. It's still early today, so it's still too late to start early."
After Zhao Yeqing had enough food supplies and made sure that the bullets of the shotgun were loaded, he said, "You have to be careful in the mountains..."
Just mid-sentence, she saw Guomu and Xuebing, who had not been home for a few days, stepping into the yard. She hurriedly called them over and said, "You two should go too."
She touched the bellies of the two leopards and found that they were full and did not look sleepy.
Mu Xi walked to the door and called the names of the two leopards once, and they got up and followed him out.
The further you go in exploring the path, the longer the journey and the more time it takes.
The last time I went out, I spent four days and three nights, and I don’t know how many days it will take to get back this time.
Originally, she didn't even want to go back to get the things. It was not impossible to live on the meadow like this. It was too dangerous to explore the way back.
Mu Xi shook his head and said: "When the solar power comes back, it will not only be able to charge mobile phones, but also no longer use kerosene lamps at home. When the time comes, tools such as chainsaws from Meishan will be brought in one after another. It will be better than manpower." ."
After hearing what he said, Zhao Yeqing didn't say anything else. Just the fact that he could use electric lights was already very attractive to her.
There are hundreds of miles around and there are no people around, but their house is the only one with people. At night, everything is quiet. When you can't see your fingers, there is only a dim kerosene lamp in the room. It's not a good feeling.
She was already prepared that Mu Xi would not come back for a week this time.
But a week later, Mu Xi still didn't come back, and now Zhao Yeqing was completely panicked.
She had been a little uneasy in the first two days, so she could only calm down and comfort herself, but on the night of the seventh day, Mu Xi still did not show up.
Zhao Yeqing forced herself to close her eyes and sleep. When she got up the next morning, she packed her things and went out to find someone.
Mu Xi was exploring roads and clearing wasteland along the way. All she had to do was follow the cleared path.
When Mu Xi came back last time, she said she had walked about forty or fifty kilometers. According to her speed, it would take two days.
However, no matter how clean the road is, it is still a mountain road. Walking more than 20 kilometers a day is already the limit. The environment in the mountains is complicated at night. Mu Xi has taken away the solar-charged flashlight, so she can only stop to light a fire and set up camp at night.
