Chapter 119 Auntie or Sister
When they got closer, Xia Qing discovered that there was one more person in Tan Junjie''s investigation team today.
He was a small one, wearing a camouflage protective suit, following at the end of the team, carrying two wooden sticks as submachine guns. Depending on age, this should be Tan Junjie''s daughter Tan Qi. When Tan Junjie exchanged edible vegetables and toon buds with Xia Qing, he mentioned that his daughter was studying in an elementary school in the safe area.
Why did she come to the territory if she doesn’t study? Xia Qing remembered that it was mid-July now, it was summer vacation, right? Is there still summer vacation in schools now? When Xia Qing was in the safe area, she had never heard of the current school having summer vacation.
Tan Junjie found Xia Qing and stopped asking, "Did you block the entrance and exit of the old isolation belt in Territory No. 3?"
Xia Qing explained, "Yeah. Someone just got into my territory from the old quarantine belt, and I think it''s safer to block it."
Tan Junjie immediately asked, "Who is it?"
Xia Qing described, "It was a young woman in camouflage protective clothing, about 1.7 meters tall. She claimed to be the lord of the eighth floor and went to chop wood along the isolation belt. Because she was wearing a protective mask, I could only see that her face was white and her eyes were black. It had just passed ten minutes."
Tan Junjie looked back at Yuan Rui, the olfactory evolver in the team. Yuan Rui shook his head, "Because he was wearing protective clothing, he did not leave any obvious breath."
Tan Junjie explained to Xia Qing, "Based on the height and gender you described, you should be the lord of the No. 8. We will chase you and confirm it before replying to you."
Xia Qing nodded, "Thank you for your hard work."
Tan Junjie waved to his daughter, "Qiqi, this is Aunt Xia, the lord of Land No. 3. She grows a lot of vegetables you eat."
Aunt? Xia Qing raised her eyebrows.
Tan Qi was wearing a protective mask, and Xia Qing could only see her having eyes that looked very similar to her father. The little girl gave Xia Qing a standard military salute and greeted her crisply, "Hello Sister Xia. The vegetables my sister grows are very delicious. Thank you for selling the vegetables to my father."
Oh, this little girl can talk more than her father.
Xia Qing smiled and took out two small bags of roasted snake jerky from her protective suit pocket and handed it over, "This is the roasted jerky by my sister. It tastes okay, but it is made of snake meat. Do Qiqi dare to eat it?"
Tan Qi saw her father nodding slightly before taking off her gloves and taking the jerky meat, "Dare. My dad often catches snakes for me to eat, thank you sister."
Xia Qing heard from Chen Cheng of Hu Zifeng''s team that Tan Junjie''s wife is also a soldier. Qiqi was born in the second year of the natural disaster, and her mother died in the third year of the natural disaster. In the seventh year of the natural disaster, Tan Junjie found his mother and his younger brother''s family and took them to the Huisan base. Then, Tan Junjie sent his daughter to a safe area to study and lived with his grandmother.
In the natural disaster year of lack of food and clothing and crises everywhere, Tan Junjie was able to raise his daughter safely and taught him so well, which increased Xia Qing''s respect for him a step further.
After watching them leave the isolation zone of Base No. 3, Xia Qing pretended to go down the mountain, but in fact she kept an appropriate distance from the inspection team - the distance within her hearing coverage.
Su Ming, who was talking a lot, indeed muttered in a low voice, "The person from the No. 8 actually walked out of the territory. It''s strange, it''s really strange."
Cao Xianyun felt strange, "When we went to clean up the evolutionary rat, there were still many trees in her territory, how could it be burned without firewood?"
Hu Zi replied in a low voice, "I can''t bear to chop it. A few days ago, she asked the captain about tobacco leaves through the walkie-talkie. It was probably because she heard the magpies like to build nests with tobacco and wanted to find some tobacco to build bird nests."
"I really don''t know how she lived to this day alone..."
"The three female lords in our territory from 10th are the same as Sister Qing, and the other two are more mysterious."
In order to chase the No. 8 Lord who went to chop wood, Tan Junjie''s team walked very fast. Xia Qing only heard these few words and walked away, but there was also a lot of information.
Even the investigation team felt that Lord No. 8 was mysterious, and this person was really easy to understand. What did she do today?
Xia Qing returned to the edge of the spring water cave, stuffed the bucket full of spring water into the basket, and then covered it with grass before hanging the basket on Boss Yang and walking down the mountain.
Su Ming was right. The lord of the Nine and the lord of the Eighth were more mysterious than the other. Li Si was at least telling the truth in the group that No. 8 may use the walkie-talkie to listen to other lords'' communication every day, but he never said anything. Although he had only met him and said a few words, Xia Qing felt that Lord No. 8 was a ruthless character with little talk and ability. Whether she loves to talk or not has nothing to do with Xia Qing. But if she dared to make the third place, Xia Qing would let her know what it means to be ruthless, but to be even more ruthless.
After putting the spring water home, Xia Qing used a newly purchased electric kettle to make tea, and then went to the second floor to see the yellow-lantern corn seeds that had been soaked in the spring water for almost twenty-four hours.
The corn seeds have not germinated, but have expanded. Xia Qing poured some edible vinegar into it to sterilize it according to the radio teaching method, and then took the basin to the cornfield.
The cornfield is the first piece of wheat and mung beans to grow. After Xia Qing fertilized and plowed, she planted two kilograms of yellow-lantern corn seeds given to her by Luo Pei.
The corn has grown three leaves in the past half month after planting. Although it is a yellow light, its color is normal and tender green, which makes people feel relieved.
The mung beans and wheat fields are more than two acres, and the remaining space is enough to plant two kilograms of corn.
After planting corn, the only seeds that Xia Qing exchanged from the safe zone were left with cabbage that she had to wait until August to plant. In the next two days, Xia Qing plans to wrap up the chickens.
Her seventeen green light chickens are one month old, so it’s time for her third brother to send them to her.
Xia Qing took out her cell phone and was about to send a message to her third brother to inquire about the breeding skills of the green light chicken, but she received a call from Tan Junjie. Tan Junjie said that she would bring Tan Qi to her and bring her cauliflower.
Xia Qing rushed to the street sign south of the territory and saw the tender yellow flowers in Tan Qi''s small basket, and immediately recognized them. This is not the kind of water plant that grows in shallow water on both sides of the inland river in her territory. It is a large area and a large area that is similar to the shape of a lotus leaf, but not as big as a palm.
Xia Qing thought it was an evolutionary lotus at first, but after digging it, she found that there was no lotus root growing underneath. Although the test found that there was a yellow-light plant, the leaves of the grass were not delicious when cooked, and even the sheep didn''t eat them, so Xia Qing did not include it in the recipe.
It turns out that this plant is called squid and eats flowers.
Xia Qing thanked the Tan family father and daughter and humbly asked how to eat this flower.
Tan Qi shared the way to eat it crisply, "Sister cooked the rice porridge, put the washed petals into the porridge when it was about to come out of the pot, and add sugar to drink it."
"It sounds delicious, thank you Qiqi." Xia Qing thanked Tan Qi. Tan Junjie told her about the woman chopping wood, "That man is indeed the lord of the No. 8, and he did go to chop wood, because she didn''t know what was happening around her shortly after she got the walkie-talkie and didn''t know that your territory had expanded."
Xia Qing thanked Tan Junjie and watched their father and daughter walk east hand in hand for a while before returning to their territory with cauliflower.
Not long after she walked, she heard Tang Huai in Territory No. 2 talking in his visual evolutionist Zhou Xun.
"Xin Yu from Land No. 8 actually walked out of the territory? How could Tan Junjie deliver vegetables to Xia Qing?"
Tang Huai''s voice was still very worthy of beating, "I must be thinking of establishing a good relationship with Xia Qing so that my daughter can go to the third territory to play. Although Xia Qing has a stern face every day, she is a woman and will not do anything to a little girl."
Zhou Xun didn''t believe it, "No, the sheep in Territory No. 3 is an evolutionary animal of power. Isn''t Tan Junjie afraid that his daughter will be injured by the sheep? Why not send it to Land No. 8."
"Idiot, Tan Junjie''s daughter is a speed evolver. Can the stupid sheep catch up? Let''s go, the sun is about to set, so hurry up and dig the cicada monkey."
It turns out that the lord of the No. 8th place is Xin Yu, and he has never heard of this name when he was in the safe area. Also, it would be fine if Tang Huai and the others said that they were Guan Gong''s face, but they actually said that she was stupid?
Digging the cicada monkey? OK.
Xia Qing drove out the micro-tiller when he got home, and weeded it quickly.
Soon, Tang Huai yelled irritably in the Lord''s channel, "Xia Qing, lock up your broken thing!"
