Chapter 683 Green light bamboo shoots
"Yes, Sister Yan put away the snake." Xia Qing is a defender today. He needs to keep a close eye on the surroundings at any time, eliminate the dangers approaching at any time, and collecting prey is the task of the logistics personnel.
"Okay." Yuan Yan picked up the Qi snake that was broken into two pieces, quickly sealed it and stuffed it into her backpack, and then she swung the pickaxe to dig the bamboo shoots.
The one-meter-long bamboo shoots buried in the soil were dug out, and they weighed them with their hands to determine that they were more than twenty pounds. This spring, the price of yellow lantern bamboo shoots is 15 points per pound, and this bamboo shoot is worth more than 300 points!
The couple were overjoyed and continued to look for edible bamboo shoots along the direction of the growth of the bamboo roots.
Tan Qi glanced at the big bamboo shoots found by Qi Fu and his wife, lowered her head and continued to find bamboo shoots according to the experience taught to her by Qi Fu. After finally finding one, it was a red light again. Tan Qi was only depressed for a second and immediately cheered up and looked for the next one.
Xia Qing held the knife in his left hand and the gun in his right hand, standing beside the three of them, responsible for guarding.
"A green light bamboo shoot was found in the second area and was digging, and it started chopping in one minute." Liangzi issued an announcement on the walkie-talkie.
Cut green light bamboo shoots, and that bamboo may launch bamboo leaf darts, which may also cause nearby animals to panic and escape, and enter other areas to hurt people. Therefore, it is necessary to issue an announcement in advance to remind companions in other areas to pay attention to precautions.
Xia Qing replied, "Received, be careful."
A minute later, Xia Qing heard the jingle of bamboo leaf darts hitting hard objects from the second area.
Half an hour later, Yuehaiying issued an announcement, "There are green bamboo shoots found in the third district and are being excavated. They will start chopping later."
After receiving the reply, Xia Qing found that Qi Fu, Yuan Yan and Tan Qi were all a little impatient, so she reminded her, "Brother Qi, Sister Yan, Qi Qi, stay calm."
The green light bamboo shoots sold at 80 points per pound, Xia Qing can understand their anxiety, but the most taboo thing in the evolution forest is impatient, because once people lose their calmness, they are prone to make mistakes.
Green light bamboo shoots were found in the three areas divided by Xia Qing last year, and as long as they continue to search, they can find them. It’s not that Xia Qing doesn’t want to tell them where the green light bamboo is, it’s because she can’t remember which one it is.
After receiving the reminder, the three of them immediately calmed down and continued to dig bamboo shoots.
An hour later, Tan Qi found the first green light bamboo shoot. Although it was only the size of a palm, the little girl jumped up happily.
Xia Qing took out the soft bulletproof shield from her backpack and opened it. The four of them hid under the shield before asking Tan Qi to break the bamboo shoots off.
After the bamboo shoots were broken, the bamboo roots trembled, and the green bamboo fired bamboo leaf darts outwards. Listening to the bamboo leaves pounding against the soft bulletproof shield, seeing several bamboo leaves shot into the soil and inserted on the bamboo pole. Qi Fu and Tan Qi were protected under the umbrella widened their eyes, unable to believe that this was something Zhuye could do.
Unbelievable, so crazy!
If this continues, plants may be able to escape from the land and run around...
"alright."
After the bamboo leaf dart was over, Xia Qing put away the bulletproof shield and asked the three of them to surround the green bamboo shoots and dig green bamboo shoots.
Digging bamboo shoots is a hard work. After another hour, the team set up a tent and rested on the spot.
Nothing can be done during rest time, Qi Fu asked, “Captain, can I peel the bamboo shoots and only bring them back?”
Everyone has limited weight. If you peel off the bamboo shoots and cut off the roots, they can bring more bamboo shoots back.
Seeing three companions looking at him together, Xia Qing shook his head firmly, "No, the smell of peeling bamboo shoots may attract the surrounding bamboo shoots and eaters, causing danger." This is also why you have to immediately bury the bamboo shoot pit and pack the bamboo shoots in packaging bags after digging bamboo shoots.
"I understand." In the evolution forest, you must listen to the captain''s actions. Qi Fu immediately gave up his thoughts and sat down and rested honestly.
Tan Qi in the tent finished repairing and sorted out the bamboo shoots she dug. She found that she had reached her load-bearing limit, so she got out of the tent to discuss with Yuan Yan, "Aunt Yan, have you dug enough bamboo shoots?"
Yuan Yan shook her head, "It''s still more than 300 kilograms away."
He and her husband are both power evolutionists. Although they dug a lot in the morning, they are still far from the maximum load target of 750 kilograms that they agreed on.
Tan Qi asked, "I have dug enough bamboo shoots. Can you dig it for you in the afternoon?"
This exchange method is one of the customary rules among the members of the collection team that were temporarily pieced together. Tan Qi wants to return with the team. She is also idle for the rest of the time. It is better to help Qi Fu and his wife find bamboo shoots and earn some points.
Yuan Yan nodded, "Each big bamboo shoot gives you 20 points and the middle bamboo shoots have 10 points. Is it OK?"
They asked Tan Qi to help find it, and after digging enough pounds as soon as possible, they could rest for a while before returning to the journey, and carry bamboo shoots back to the territory.
"Okay." Tan Qi agreed happily. She was very happy to be able to earn points based on her own abilities.
Two hours later, near three o''clock in the afternoon, the bamboo shoots dug by the team members reached their predetermined goals and began to return.
Although there is no need to clear the shrubs and thorns to lead the way, the team has increased its weight and the speed of travel is not fast. Especially the rugged and bumpy section from Zhulin to the foot of the third peak of Mount No. 50, which is very physically exhausting. So after forty minutes, Xia Qing heard the team members'' breathing become heavier and heavier, so he shouted to stop and rest on the spot for fifteen minutes.
Hearing that he could rest, the power evolvers all sat on the stones, gasping for breath with their backs to their backpacks. Xia Qing, who is also a power evolutionist and has been working on the task of carrying materials for many years, knows their current state very well. They can''t recover after fifteen minutes.
She whispered to Tan Qi, who was slung on her backpack with her eyes closed, "Qiqi, do you need me to carry some supplies for you?"
Although Tan Qi''s small bag is not big, she is only ten years old and is not a power evolver. It is already very good to be able to persevere until now.
Tan Qi was so tired that her eyes were filled with stars and her throat was hot. She couldn''t speak at all, so she could only raise her palms tremblingly.
Xia Qing smiled and brimmed with her gently.
This is an action that the two of them participated in Yanlong’s special training and encouraged each other when they were on the verge of collapse. The little girl was telling Xia Qing: She is very tired now, but she can hold on.
Xia Qing walked to Huo Lei again to ask about his situation. Huo Lei was the oldest in the team today. Xia Qing looked at his backpack and thought it was less than 500 kilograms. For a 48-year-old fourth-level power evolutionist, carrying 500 kilograms of materials on a 15-mile mountain road is already considered full load.
Huo Lei, sweating all over, gasped, "This work is more difficult than a blacksmith, but I just drank the nutrient solution and I could recover after a while."
Xia Qing nodded and keenly captured the sound of animals'' movements with his ears.
Liangzi''s voice sounded quickly, "Two small animals appeared, probably squirrels, bobcats or weasels."
This type of animal will not attack humans, but they brought a large amount of supplies. Out of caution, Xia Qing decided to defend himself, "Liangzi, Brother Yue, defense, others rest on the spot."
In a short while, a round white head slowly appeared on a rock three meters away. The little guy stared at the crowded humans with **** eyes.
