Fire Phoenix nodded, he looked at Zhao Hai and said: "I am planning to use troops against the Hundred Thousand Mountains recently, what do you think?"
Zhao Hai looked at Huo Fenghuang and said: "Zhao Master, it is not a good thing to launch troops against Shiwandashan at this time. First of all, the Ten Village Alliance has not been officially established yet. Although I have a proposal, it is obvious that this
The proposal has not been implemented yet, so by mobilizing troops now, we have become the advance army of the other nine tribes. They will see what results we have achieved in the Shiwan Mountains. Moreover, if we do this, not only will we not be able to bring any benefits to the Tiger Soul Country,
It will cause a lot of damage, and it is easy to alert the enemy. I think it is best for us to unite with the other big villages first, and then we can attack the Hundred Thousand Mountains together."
When Huo Fenghuang heard what Zhao Hai said, he couldn't help but frown. She really couldn't wait any longer, especially after her strength increased, and after she mastered an army of 100,000, he couldn't wait anymore.
Zhao Hai looked at Fire Phoenix and said in a deep voice: "Zhao Master, you are still young and you can afford to wait. You have to wait until Shahu Village slowly grows stronger before launching troops against the Tiger Soul Kingdom. But if you attack the Tiger Soul Kingdom now,
If the Tiger Soul Kingdom mobilizes troops, have you ever thought about the consequences? Shahu Village is all your family assets. If you lose all this family wealth, then you will really have nothing."
Huo Fenghuang listened to Zhao Hai's words quietly. She also knew that she was a little anxious. She took a long breath and said: "Okay, as you said, I'm waiting."
Zhao Hai nodded, looked at the sky, and said in a deep voice: "Zhao Master, I will rest for a day first. Then I will go back and my experiment will continue. If my experiment is really successful this time
, then the desert will not be as scary as it is now." After saying that, Zhao Hai stood up, gave Fire Phoenix a fist, then turned and left.
After Zhao Hai left, Huo Fenghuang turned to look at the scholar and said: "Scholar, go and see what He Cao said about the bottle tree. Also, take the flag of my Shahu Village with you. Don't let anyone
People touch crane grass things."
The scholar responded, stood up, turned and walked away. He was also very curious about the bottle tree that Zhao Hai mentioned, and wanted to see what magic there was about the bottle tree.
Zhao Hai didn't care so much. He just found a tent and went to sleep. Although he had natural energy support, here in the desert, his natural energy replenished very slowly, but he used it a lot.
Once he was really tired.
After a day's rest, the feeling of fatigue was gone, and the natural energy was restored. Zhao Hai walked out of the tent.
As soon as he arrived outside the tent, Zhao Hai found that a young man from Shahu Village was standing outside his tent. As soon as the young man saw Zhao Hai waking up, he immediately came up to him and said in a deep voice: "
The second in charge, the leader of the village, is waiting for you and wants you to go see her immediately after you wake up."
Zhao Hai nodded and said: "Okay, I'll go right away." After saying that, he followed the man towards the big tent.
When Zhao Hai arrived at the big tent, he found that Huo Fenghuang was the only one in the big tent. Zhao Hai raised his fists at Huo Fenghuang and said, "Fortress leader, are you looking for me?"
Fire Phoenix looked at Zhao Hai with gleaming eyes and said: "Hecao, get up. Tomorrow I will ask the scholar to see the bottle trees you planted. Those trees are already full of water, and those bottle trees are at least
There must be more than 20,000 trees. Have you planted all these trees in the past two days?"
Zhao Hai nodded and said: "Yes, these trees were planted in the past two days. Aren't these two days coincident with the thunder season? They were planted just in time to absorb water, and then I put away these trees.
I want to test these trees."
Huo Fenghuang looked at Zhao Hai and said: "Test? What kind of test?"
Zhao Hai said solemnly: "To conduct experiments in the desert, I will plant some bottle trees in the desert, so that when the desert reaches the rainy season, these bottle trees can store a lot of water. When the desert passes the rainy season, these bottle trees will
It is also filled with water, which will allow grass to grow in the desert, so that the desert will gradually cease to be a desert."
Fire Phoenix's eyes flashed: "Can he do it?"
Zhao Hai said in a deep voice: "It's not clear yet. You have to do it to find out. My thinking was wrong before. I just wanted to improve the plants in the desert and make them more drought-tolerant."
, but I forgot that there is no drought-tolerant plant that can withstand several months without rain."
Having said this, Zhao Hai took a long breath, and then said in a deep voice: "The bottle tree is a good thing for storing water, but he has a weakness, that is, the bottle tree cannot use the water stored in its body to other plants. In this way
Once other plants don't get any benefits, I just want to improve it and see if the bottle tree can use the water stored in its body for other plants to use. This is equivalent to benefiting all the plants in the desert.
Already."
Zhao Hai let out a long breath and said: "I know that the rainfall here in the desert is not very low every year. It can be seen from yesterday's rain. It rained for several days at a time, and the rain was not light. It's just that
All the land in the desert has become desertified, and sandy land cannot hold water. Therefore, even if it rains in the desert, it will eventually seep into the sand, making it useless for people and plants. At most, it will form in some river beds.
There is a Ji River. When the dry season comes, the water in the Ji River will dry up quickly. This is the biggest problem in the desert."
Huo Fenghuang nodded. Although she had not lived in the desert for a long time, he also knew about the situation here. Zhao Hai was right. What he said was right. The biggest problem in the desert was
It is true that the water cannot be stored, and it has all seeped into the sand. There may be underground rivers in the desert, but no one can use the water in the underground rivers, which is why the desert is so desolate.
Zhao Hai looked at the fire phoenix and continued: "The reason why I want to plant bottle trees is to store the water that has seeped into the ground on the ground so that not only people but also plants can use it. But obviously
, this is not an easy task, and it requires many experiments.”
Huo Fenghuang thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "Hecao, let's do this. I will share your idea with other Jiuzhaigou and ask them to send some planters to support you. I think they are very willing.
After all, improving the environment here in the desert is also good for them, and we can also use this opportunity to communicate more, and maybe an alliance can be established slowly."
Zhao Hai said with a smile: "Everything is decided by the village leader. I just do research, after all, the results are the most important thing. Today's weather is very good, I have to leave, do you want to go back to the old man's village?
The old man will be worried."
Huo Fenghuang nodded and said: "Okay, then you go. Remember, if you need anything in Lao Lao Village, just tell me. After all, the old people in Sha Hu Village also live there. I can't watch them starve."
.”
Zhao Hai nodded and stood up. He clasped his fists at Fire Phoenix, turned around and walked out. Once outside, Zhao Hai immediately asked someone to call Fat Cat and Zhou Qianqian. They were going back.
Soon Fat Mao and Zhou Qianqian came back. Although their faces were still a little tired, their spirits were much better. Zhao Hai glanced at the two of them and said solemnly: "Stretch out your hands." Fat Mao and
Zhou Qianqian didn't even understand what Zhao Hai was going to do, but she still obediently stretched out her hand.
Zhao Hai grabbed their hands, felt their pulses, then nodded and said: "Fortunately, no cold air has entered the body. Now he has almost recovered. After returning to the village, he will recover after a period of time."
Okay, let’s go.”
The two of them responded and followed Zhao Hai on horseback to leave Shahu Village. After leaving Shahu Village, they headed towards Laorou Village. After walking for a short time, they saw the tall bottle trees.
The bottle tree has been filled with water, and one person looks extremely strong, like a huge vase, very beautiful.
Zhao Hai and the others quickly arrived in front of the bottle tree, but as soon as they arrived in front of the bottle tree, Zhao Hai was stunned because he saw a person from Shahu Village standing under the bottle tree with a nervous look on his face.
Look.
Zhao Hai came to the foot of the bottle tree, looked at the man and said, "Hey, what are you doing standing here?"
As soon as the man looked at Zhao Hai, he immediately saluted Zhao Hai and said: "Returning to the second village master, the big village master has given an order not to allow anyone to damage these trees. We are here to watch, and there are people watching us all the way there."
.”
Zhao Hai nodded and said in a deep voice: "Okay, you don't have to watch anymore, go back." After Zhao Hai waved his hand, the bottle tree turned into a small seed and flew back.
In the hands of Zhao Hai.
When the man from Shahu Village saw Zhao Hai put away the bottle tree, he showed a relaxed expression, but at the same time, there was also a trace of fanaticism on his face, and he saluted Zhao Hai
He said: "Yes, Second Village Master, I will go back immediately." After saying this, Zhao Hai did not wait for him to finish his words, got on his horse, hit the horse and galloped away in the direction of Shahu Village, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Zhao Hai watched the guy running away with some confusion. He really didn't know what the guy was running for. Zhao Hai still couldn't understand how these desert people, who were born and raised in the desert, yearned for water, and what water meant to people in the desert.
To me, it is really too precious. Now Zhao Hai can use bottle trees to store water, and he can also turn these bottle trees into seeds and collect them. What a great thing this is. How could that person not be excited? That person
It seems that Zhao Hai is like a god, and he wants to tell everyone in Shahu Village this news.
Zhao Hai still didn't know what that man was thinking. He kept moving forward, turning the bottle trees into seeds and collecting them. At the same time, he also sent those who were looking at the bottle trees back to Shahu Village.
Along the way, halfway through, he saw the scholar. The scholar was sitting under a bottle tree, holding a book in his hand. However, he was not reading. Obviously, he already knew that Zhao Hai was coming. He was now
He was standing there waiting for Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai saw the scholar, smiled slightly, clasped his fists and said: "Scholar, you are here, okay, I will put away these trees right away, you go back quickly, I have been guarding Dali for more than a day, you have worked hard enough
of."
The scholar smiled and said: "It's not hard work. To be honest, I'm really happy. I'm so happy to see these bottle trees. This is the hope of the desert. My second master, please accept my respect. I hope you can
In the future, we can make the desert have more bottle trees and make the desert look like a different place."
When Zhao Hai heard what the scholar said, he also smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, I can do it, I will work hard, go back quickly, there are still a lot of things in the village." The scholar nodded and looked at Zhao Hai again.
He cupped his fists, then turned around and got on his horse, running towards Shahu Village.
Zhao Hai glanced at the scholar's back, smiled slightly, and then walked forward. When they went back, although they were also on their way, they felt much more relaxed. If they were thirsty, they could find a place to drink water. If they were hungry, they could drink water at the bottle tree.
After resting for a while and eating something, I won't be as anxious as when I came here.
It took the three of them several days to return to the old man's village. Before they entered the old man's village, Zhao Hai saw many people standing in front of the old man's village. This made Zhao Hai stunned, and Zhao Hai hurriedly
After driving over, I saw that the people standing in front of the village gate were none other than the old people from Laorou Village.
These old people all looked at Zhao Hai with worried faces. When they saw Zhao Hai coming back, their expressions relaxed. Then Mr. Chen cupped his fists at Zhao Hai and said: "Zhao Hai, you are back. We
I'm very worried about you. The rain in the desert is so shocking. People die in the rain every year. You won't take such risks anymore."
Zhao Hai said with a smile: "Let you worry, don't worry, I have a sense of proportion in my heart. This time I just want to collect some rainwater. It will be fine. Okay, everyone, go back and have a rest. I will go and collect it right away."
Put those trees away." As he said this, Zhao Hai jumped off the horse and followed the old people to the stockade. As he walked, Zhao Hai said to Mr. Chen: "Mr. Chen, is the stockade okay? It's raining this time.
But it’s not small. Is there anything unexpected in the village?”
Mr. Chen shook his head and said: "Don't worry, owner of the village, we will encounter such heavy rains several times every year. We are all used to it. After all, we rely on the river here, and all the rainwater will go into the river. Nothing will happen."
,You do not have to worry about."
Zhao Hai nodded and said in a deep voice: "It's okay. You guys should go back and have a rest. I'll put away the bottle tree and go take a look at the grass I planted. I don't know if the grass has grown.
, it would be great if it could grow."
When Chen Laoyi heard what Zhao Hai said, he quickly said: "Don't worry, owner of the village, they have all grown. The grass has grown. Although it has only grown short, it has grown very well, very well. These days
We have been watching for days.”
When Zhao Hai heard what Mr. Chen said, he was also very happy. He immediately said: "Okay, just grow it. I'll go and have a look." While talking, Zhao Hai collected all the bottle trees in the village.
He got up and walked outside the village to the edge of the desert.
When they arrived at the edge of the desert, Zhao Hai saw a layer of light green from a distance. This green was very light and the grass did not grow very high. However, Zhao Hai was still very happy because it meant that the grass he cultivated was finally alive.
Come here, now look at how long these grasses can persist after the rainy season. The longer they persist, the stronger their ability to resist drought, which means the more successful his research is.
