Zhao Hai looked at the seeds in his hand. This was a seed called glutinous rice. This kind of glutinous rice was still planted in large quantities in Wenji Continent, because the plants here in Wenji Continent had rarely been improved, and
The yield of this kind of glutinous rice is very high, so most farmers here grow glutinous rice seeds.
Zhao Hai looked at the seeds of glutinous rice and discovered a problem. Finally, he stimulated the seeds with natural energy. As expected, it had no effect. The seeds did not sprout. You know, Zhao Hai used
The seeds stimulated by natural energy cannot germinate under such circumstances, so the seeds are considered useless.
Zhao Hai put down the glutinous rice seeds and turned to the old farmer and said, "Are these seeds your own seeds? How many years have you used these seeds? Are they always your own seeds?"
The old farmer immediately said: "Yes, sir, everything we plant here is our own seed. I don't know how many years we have been planting it. Anyway, it has been like this since I started farming."
made."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Does it mean that the production of glutinous rice has been decreasing in the past two years?"
When the old farmer heard what Zhao Hai said, he quickly said: "Sir, yes, the production of glutinous rice has been decreasing in the past two years. This situation has appeared since ten years ago, but the decrease at that time was not a lot.
We just thought that the base fertilizer was insufficient, but then the decrease became more and more, and we reported this matter, but the adults in the academy said that it was because of our insufficient base fertilizer."
Zhao Hai nodded, turned to Long Yunfei and said: "The problem has been found. The problem should appear on the seeds. These seeds have degraded and can no longer survive."
Long Yunfei looked at Zhao Hai in confusion and said: "What do you mean, sir? How can the seeds degenerate?"
Zhao Hai said in a deep voice: "Of course seeds will also degenerate. Plants are just like animals. Mr. Long should have seen wild boars and domestic pigs, right? Wild boars are very fierce. Most people don't dare to provoke him at all, and ordinary animals also
I don’t dare. If most people encounter wild boars in the mountains, they will walk around, but what about domestic pigs? No one cares, and domestic pigs were domesticated from wild boars, which have long tusks.
Domestic pigs do not have tusks. This is because the living environment of domestic pigs has changed. Wild boars need to fight with other animals, so they have to grow tusks, while domestic pigs do not need to fight with people. Someone feeds them every day.
Go to sleep when you are full and eat when you wake up. There is no danger at all, so their fangs slowly disappear. The same goes for plants. Plants growing in the wild are often resistant to diseases.
The ability is much stronger than that of planted plants. In many cases, the plants that people plant are plants that have been tamed. Due to changes in the environment, many aspects of those plants have degraded after being tamed for a long time.
, this kind of seed has been degraded because it has been used for too many generations, so the yield of glutinous rice will become lower. In the end, the glutinous rice seeds will not germinate at all."
Long Yunfei didn't know much about plants, but Zhao Hai's simple words still made him understand what seed degradation meant. Long Yunfei looked at Zhao Hai and said: "Sir, what should we do?
"
Zhao Hai said in a deep voice: "In Soldier Soul Continent, planters usually improve seeds. At the same time, there are fields specially tended by planters. There are specially set aside seed fields. Many farmers have planted several seeds.
After years of keeping seeds, I would buy new seeds and plant them again, and then keep a few more, and then buy seeds again. If the cycle continues, the seeds will always be kept in the best condition, but here in Wenji Continent, there is no such situation.
, so the seeds planted by farmers are all left behind by themselves. Not only will these seeds not get better and better, on the contrary, they will slowly degrade until no plants can grow anymore. I want to change this situation.
, the best way is to re-select the seeds, plant some original seeds, and then improve them, so that the seeds can regain their vitality."
Long Yunfei nodded and continued: "This is possible, but it takes time. This time, many places near Qingyun Mountain have suffered such disasters. They all need to change their seeds, but we can get there in a short time."
How about getting so many seeds? As you said, sir, it can be improved, but we don’t have the time. Even if we start getting it now, it’s too late.”
Zhao Hai said in a deep voice: "You can bring seeds from untouched places and let everyone plant them for a year, and then immediately start organizing people to improve the seeds. And it's not just here in Qingyun Mountain, it's best to do this in the entire Wenji Continent."
, eliminate a batch of old seeds and allow farmers to plant new seeds as soon as possible. Only in this way can we ensure food production."
When Long Yunfei heard what Zhao Hai said, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. He nodded quickly and said: "Okay, thank you sir, but please go to other places to see if there are other problems with this land. If
If there are any other problems, sir, please mention them as well so that we can solve them together."
Zhao Hai nodded and walked into the ground. Then he took out a seed and threw it on the ground. In a blink of an eye, the seed grew into a big tree. Zhao Hai's performance made Long Yunfei and the others
They were all taken aback.
Here in the Wenji Continent, there is no such thing as mutated seeds. Planters only treat diseases of plants. Their fighting methods are also very monotonous. They just use their own natural weapons to fight the enemy. Naturally, the planters suffer a lot.
, but for many years, the plant masters here in Wenji Continent have been fighting like this. This is the first time they have encountered Zhao Hai releasing mutant seeds like this.
Zhao Hai communicated with the mutated baobab tree and found that there was indeed no problem in the soil. He immediately turned the baobab tree into seeds and collected them again.
After Zhao Hai collected the seeds, he turned around and glanced at Long Yunfei and the others. He found that Long Yunfei and the others were looking at him blankly. He didn't care. He walked along the land and would release seeds from time to time.
The baobab tree tried to see if the land was normal. Finally he came to a piece of land where plants were still growing. He also tried it and found that the land here was very good. The farmers here were very serious about taking care of the land. Only then did he
rest assured.
Zhao Hai collected the seeds of the baobab tree, turned to Long Yunfei and said: "Mr. Long, I just took a look, these lands are very normal, nothing happened, you don't have to worry, it seems the problem is
appears on the seeds. Please solve the seed problem as soon as possible. However, I think it is already past the time to plant glutinous rice in the current season. You'd better find some plants with short growth cycles to plant.
I’m afraid there won’t be much glutinous rice harvest this year.”
Long Yunfei nodded and said: "Okay, sir, please rest assured, I understand."
Zhao Hai nodded and walked out of the field. Without saying anything, Long Yunfei greeted the others, then he and Zhao Hai got on the carriage and walked towards Qingyun Mountain.
Sitting on the carriage, Long Yunfei looked at Zhao Haida and said: "Sir, what kind of plant did you use before? Why can it grow so big in an instant?"
Zhao Hai smiled and said: "That is the most commonly used attack method by our Soldier Soul Continent planters, called mutant seeds. This kind of mutant seeds are used by our planters to slowly refine ordinary seeds using the natural energy in our bodies.
Made of seeds, after these mutant seeds are released, as long as they are stimulated by our natural energy, they can grow rapidly and grow very large. They can even help us attack the enemy and help us fight.
"
Long Yunfei said in a deep voice: "Sir, are you saying that this method is the most commonly used method by the cultivators in the Soldier Soul Continent? How powerful is it?"
"The power is average. This mutated plant has a weakness, that is, it moves very slowly, which is not very helpful to the plant. Generally, it is only used by low-level plants, and high-level planters will not use it.
Because the combat effectiveness of this thing is too small, it is of little help to high-level planters. However, ordinary planters will still carry some mutant seeds with them, because if the planter is resting in the wild, he can use this kind of seeds.
The mutant plants were released to help keep watch at night, so that the plant master could have a good rest." Zhao Hai did not hide anything from Long Yunfei and told him about the mutant seeds.
Long Yunfei nodded, not saying anything, but looking out the window, frowning, not knowing what he was thinking. Naturally, Zhao Hai was not in the mood to study what Long Yunfei was thinking, he was sitting in the carriage
I closed my eyes and rested my mind while thinking about what happened today.
After a while, they arrived at the square and stopped. Zhao Hai and Long Yunfei got out of the car and returned to the college together. Zhao Hai naturally went back to his room to rest, while Long Yunfei also
There are a lot of things to deal with.
In fact, what happened today has greatly stimulated Long Yunfei. Naturally, Long Yunfei also knew very well why several other professions in the Literary Continent could not develop. This in itself was the result of the suppression of scribes. Of course, he could not
I don't know, but what happened today gave Long Yunfei a sudden thought. He didn't know if it was right for scribes to suppress other professionals like this.
The reason why we have such an idea is because the plant teachers in the college are powerless to do anything about today's matter, and Zhao Hai went there, but he had already made a conclusion in just a few minutes. Obviously this is not a difficult problem for Zhao Hai
Son, it is not a difficult thing for Zhao Hai, but the plant masters in the college can't even find it. The gap is really too big.
There is also the solution proposed by Zhao Hai. At the same time, Zhao Hai also said that in the Soldier Soul Continent, the plant masters will be responsible for the improvement of plants, but here in the Wenji Continent, the plant masters are only responsible for treating plants. He
I have never heard of a planter improving plants, and you can tell the difference between the two sides from this point.
Long Yunfei didn't really think much of the plant master before. In his opinion, the plant master only treated the plants, which was nothing special. However, what happened today made Long Yunfei clearly know that the plant master is very important.
is important because planters are directly related to the amount of food produced, and no continent or force can do without food.
