Chapter 1057: The Spiritual Spring Liquid Has Healing Function
Because the wound was not deep and was at most a superficial cut, Gu Tongwan only soaked in the spiritual spring water for about half a minute, and then found a Band-Aid to put on the wound to prevent infection.
I was busy in the space for a while, mainly because the fruits and vegetables in the space were almost filling up an area at least the size of a small garage.
Click on the system's project column, which records the harvest status of all crops and fruits and vegetables in real time.
【玉米200斤，大白菜300斤、丝瓜100斤、豆角100斤、黄瓜200斤、西红柿200斤、土豆300斤、马铃薯300斤、南瓜300斤、冬瓜300斤、上海青、100斤、空心菜100斤、红薯叶100斤、小葱50斤、香菜50斤、南瓜苗100斤】
The longer he stayed in the space, the more Gu Tongwan discovered a characteristic of the space, that is, no matter whether it was crops, fruits and vegetables, or even rice and wheat, almost everything here was harvested in whole numbers, and there would never be any decimal points.
Sliding the column down slightly, she saw that the harvest of staple crops was also considerable. After all, she had now upgraded to the fourth piece of farmland, which was nearly two acres.
Although two acres of land is not considered large for people who have farmed, it is more than enough for one or several people. It is nearly the size of a football field. We must also consider that all the crops in it can be purchased with points in the space for repeated growth, and the maturity period is only one-third or even one-quarter of that of ordinary crops. The more fast-growing fertilizers are spread, the shorter and more the maturity time and output value can be.
The tomatoes that had been planted earlier were sprinkled with two bags of intermediate fertilizer given away by the system in a lottery. After about ten days, the tomatoes had matured, and the output value was nearly twice as much as usual. The tomatoes were plump and bright in color. Tomatoes of this condition and quality are almost impossible to buy at the base. Even if you can see similar ones, they can only be found in the boutique vegetable stores of the agents in the wealthy area.
Gu Tongwan has not increased the yield of staple crops since the last harvest, mainly because there is already nearly one ton of rice in the warehouse, and more than 200 kilograms of various beans. There are even nearly kilograms of black beans that are rarely eaten on weekdays, and six large bags of kilograms of wheat.
However, she only considers limiting the supply of staple foods when opening a boutique restaurant in the future. After all, the demand for staple foods is too great, and the land area is limited. It is unlikely to satisfy most people at once, so she still needs to find ways to increase production in the future.
The most impressive and surprising thing should be the fruits. After all, she had won a lot of fruit seeds in the previous lottery.
【苹果500斤，香梨300斤，雪梨500斤，哈密瓜500斤、西瓜一吨、榴莲500斤、巨峰葡萄300斤，阳光玫瑰200斤、山竹200斤、百香果200斤……】
The fruits are growing well, and the fruits are sweet and fragrant, especially the watermelons, which are high-quality sweet watermelons, seedless and rich in water. Gu Tongwan ate nearly half a watermelon almost every day some time ago. The temperature has been gradually rising recently, so we can take this opportunity to grow more fruits with high water content.
The food and fruits and vegetables alone are enough for her to eat for one or two years, not to mention the large amount of goods she had stockpiled before.
I tidied up the space a bit and checked the current points balance.
[Current space level is 3, land: second-level black soil, system points: 128000, points required to upgrade space: 30000, points required to upgrade to third-level black soil: 150000.]
After seeing the system's prompt, Gu Tongwan took out the crystal cores he had brought into the space earlier and said, "System, convert these crystal cores into points for me."
[Okay, currently testing the crystal cores and converting points... After testing, there are a total of 12 crystal cores, including 2 third-level evolution zombie crystal cores, 7 second-level evolution zombie crystal cores, and 3 first-level evolution zombie crystal cores. The total points that can be converted this time are 74000.]
The number of crystal cores seemed to be limited. In fact, she still had about two second-level evolved zombie crystal cores left, but she still needed to find an opportunity to take these two crystal cores to the exchange for trading. In this way, all the installments owed to the Star Hotel could be settled.
As the saying goes, being debt-free brings relief. Although she is able to pay back the subsequent installments, she still hopes that she can obtain a residence permit as soon as possible.
A thirty-year residence permit is equivalent to the small property rights before the end of the world, but it is hard to say what will happen in the next ten years, let alone thirty years.
Gu Tongwan fertilized the crops in the space and spent another 5000 points to install an automatic irrigation system so that the fields could replenish their own water when she was away.
After hesitating for a while, he finally saved the points for the next upgrade. However, he needed at least 10 points for the next upgrade. How many level evolved zombies would he have to kill to achieve that?
After coming out of the space, Gu Tongwan noticed the Band-Aid on his finger when he took the cup to drink water.
After tearing off the Band-Aid, I found that there was only a gap that was barely visible to the naked eye where the wound should have been.
Although the wound was not deep before, it could be seen if one looked closely. However, the whole process of turning the wound into one that is difficult to see with the naked eye took less than an hour.
In other words, after the space was upgraded, the well was also upgraded. The spiritual spring water taken out of it not only had the function of replenishing physical strength, but also had the effect of healing wounds.
The current space level is only level two, but the system does not specify how many levels there are in total. However, it is known that the points required for each upgrade of the system are increasing.
I still remember the first time I upgraded the system, it only cost 30000 points to upgrade from level one to level two, but it took nearly 300000 points to upgrade from level two to level three. The difference is ten times. It is hard to say that it will cost one million points to upgrade from level three to level four.
However, Gu Tongwan must use the spiritual spring water that can heal wounds to upgrade this well no matter what. In the future, whether in daily life or in natural disasters and man-made disasters, this spring water may save his life.
However, the number of zombies in the base is gradually decreasing, and it may not be so easy to collect hundreds of thousands or even millions of points in a short period of time.
It is now 8:05 in the evening. There is still one day until the agreed time tomorrow, so Gu Tongwan needs to make preparations in advance.
Yan Fan sent a message to the other party. She said that if she didn't get a reply from the other party before tomorrow morning, then she might have to choose another candidate. This candidate can only be a trustworthy person. She had cooperated with Yu Hang from the Far-reaching Guild several times before. Yu Hang had good character, but his ability level was only B. If he wanted to participate in the action, he would inevitably have to take greater risks. But apart from him, she seemed to have no other more trustworthy person.
She planned to visit Tan Xin in person. Tan Xin and Chen Xia had been staying in the vacant house opposite since the base was sealed off by martial law. It was unknown why both of them refused to stay in the base's research institute. It was likely that they had their own concerns.
In the evening, Chen Xia and Tan Xin were sitting in the living room. Bai Lu, who lived on the second floor, happened to come downstairs. The three of them were planning to eat something.
Probably because Bai Lu looked so small, Chen Xia and Tan Xin naturally treated her as their own sister. In addition, they heard that this woman had been helpless since the end of the world, but relied on her perseverance and ability to secure her current position as deputy director of the unit's business department.
Bai Lu was quite embarrassed at first and was still wary of the two of them. Later, after spending more time with them, she realized that they really had no ill intentions. In addition, they were partners who had fought side by side before, so she unknowingly gained some trust in them.
But after all, there are differences between men and women. Even when they were temporarily staying in the vacant house here, Chen Xia and Tan Xin chose to give the only master bedroom on the second floor to the girl, and the two of them would rather make do with the sofa in the living room.
Anyway, in Chen Xia's words, as long as there is a place to shelter from the wind and rain, it is enough. Besides, the sofa in the living room is big enough, and a 1.8-meter tall person can stretch freely.
Gu Tongwan was only about a hundred meters away from the vacant house where they were temporarily staying, and it would only take two minutes to walk there.
Their building is two-story like his own, but the area is slightly larger. The first floor is at least 90 square meters. The yard is just a little smaller, and there is only a front yard, not a front yard.
Gu Tongwan knocked on the door outside, but she was not sure if the people inside could hear it.
Fortunately, Tan Xin, the psychic inside, had sharp five senses and heard the first knock on the door, so he said to Chen Xia, "Someone is knocking on the door."
Chen Xia was stunned for a moment, frowning and said, "That's impossible. Who would come to visit at this time? Besides, it's not safe outside."
Bai Lu, who was on duty cooking today, also came out of the kitchen with two cans of cereal in her hands. These were brought back from their previous visit to the research institute. The people at the research institute seemed to attach great importance to Tan Xin, so before leaving, they packed at least one suitcase full of food for him, including even the most basic rice, flour, grain, oil, and condiments, as well as a box of eggs. These supplies were enough for them to eat for a week.
"I think I heard a knock on the door too. Why don't I go down and take a look?" Bai Lu put the things in her hand on the coffee table and was about to go out, but was stopped by Chen Xia behind her.
"Wait, it's not safe for you as a girl. Let me go out and check it out. It might be a zombie." Chen Xia walked to the door and picked up a baseball bat from the side, intending to swing it to solve the problem if anything happened.
Bai Lu looked at Chen Xia nervously as he gradually approached the gate.
In fact, they have lived here quite peacefully during this period, and have never encountered zombies knocking on the door. Even if a few zombies appeared, they would be immediately eliminated by the Self-Defense Forces patrolling nearby.
Probably, all the people living around here are important figures, so the number of zombies can be said to be very few. In the first few days after moving in, Chen Xia always joked that they didn't even have the chance to kill zombies and take their crystal cores.
At that time, Bai Lu thought this was an exaggeration, but after living there for a while, she really hadn't seen too many zombies. It was not like when they were trapped in the hotel before, when the streets were almost filled with densely packed zombies, and even a zombie tide formed.
Just as Chen Xia was approaching the courtyard gate, he suddenly heard a familiar and clear voice outside the door.
"Is anyone there? I'm here to look for Tan Xin."
Chen Xia was stunned when she suddenly heard someone mention Tan Xin's name. However, she did not open the door immediately. Instead, she asked cautiously, "Who is it?"
There aren't many people who know me and Tan Xin, and she's a woman?
Suddenly, a figure flashed through his mind, and Tan Xin's eyes lit up. He then put down the baseball bat and went to open the door.
Bai Lu, who was behind, was surprised by Chen Xia's change in attitude. On the other hand, she was also worried that she would be attacked after opening the door, so she ran forward a few steps nervously.
As a result, when the door was opened, a cold face that had not been seen for a long time was revealed.
"Sister Wanwan?" Bai Lu was surprised at first and then overjoyed. They hadn't been in touch since they moved here. Although Bai Lu also tried to send her a message, unfortunately the network was sometimes good and sometimes bad, so the message fell into the sea.
Bai Lu still felt grateful to the young lady who had helped her. She had always thought that she must thank her in person when she had the chance. Unfortunately, she went to her house several times and only saw a locked door. She didn't expect that she would come back!
"You're home, that's great. I need to talk to Tan Xin about something. Is he here?"
Gu Tongwan did not go in immediately. She would not rashly intrude into other people's territory before getting permission from her master.
It was a surprise, otherwise Chen Xia would have taken action by now.
Tan Xin was a little surprised when she saw that the person who came was Gu Tongwan. After all, apart from the previous temporary team cooperation, they didn't seem to have much in common. At most, they could only be regarded as distant partners.
Bai Lu rushed forward and shook Gu Tongwan's hand affectionately, "Sister Wanwan, it really is you. I was just about to send you a message if the network is good in the next two days."
Gu Tongwan didn't dislike the girl Bai Lu, and even had a good impression of her. After all, Bai Lu had not only not been a drag on her team, but also had a strong learning ability. She was even tempted to recruit Bai Lu to her guesthouse, but she didn't know if she would be willing.
"Do you have something to talk to me about?" Tan Xin followed Bai Lu and patted Chen Xia's shoulder in front of her.
After the latter reacted, he immediately opened the whole door, which meant that Gu Tongwan could enter the house.
Gu Tongwan didn't intend to hide it from the other two people, so he spoke directly and said, "I came to you to ask for a favor."
