MTL - The State Arranged For Me To Farm-Chapter 26
Lin Ling, who was lying on the bed, heard the terrified screams from downstairs, and the corners of his mouth could not restrain himself from rising. If he wanted to watch TV at night, he had to pay a price!
Xiaolu rushed into the room, got into Lin Ling's warm blanket, and squeezed her way into Lin Ling's heart: err, err, so scary!
Lin Ling, who had been eaten with tofu, pulled out Xiaolu with black hair, "What's so scary?"
Xiaolu groaned aggrieved: I'm afraid.
Lin Ling rolled her eyes in disgust: "Have you never seen any monsters and snakes in the last days? You are not afraid of poking zombies and people every day, but are you afraid of a movie?"
Xiaolu shook the leaves dissatisfied: that thing will float, and it will come out from behind to scare people.
Lin Ling groaned, and then looked outside: "Is it the one at the back? It's really floating."
As soon as the words fell, Xiaolu got into the quilt extremely fast, and asked tremblingly: Did it chase after me?
Lin Ling looked at the clothes hanging by the window, and hummed, "Don't say anything, it won't be able to find you."
Xiaolu said hello, and then stayed obediently under the quilt until dawn before daring to crawl out.
When the sky was gray and bright, Lin Ling got up and went to the kitchen, and saw Xia Mo squatting on the ground clutching her stomach, "What's wrong?"
At the end of Xia, his face was flushed, "I want to go to the toilet."
Lin Ling frowned, "Go, don't hold back."
Xia Mo looked in the direction of the toilet with lingering fear, he was afraid that if he squatted down, some kid would come out of the latrine and grab his feet.
Seeing that Xia Mo hesitated to speak, Lin Ling laughed from the bottom of her heart: "Don't you dare?"
Xia Mo nodded.
Lin Ling couldn't help laughing, "You want me to go with you?"
Xia Mo quickly nodded her head. After nodding, she realized that she was too weak. Will she be rejected?
"Go, what are you still doing?" Lin Ling was really afraid that the child would be overwhelmed, so he urged him to go to the toilet quickly.
With Lin Ling as his companion, Xia Mo was not so afraid anymore, walked quickly into the toilet, and after entering, he did not forget to ask: "You...will you stay outside?"
Lin Ling hummed: "I'll wait for you outside."
Xia Mo breathed a sigh of relief, and walked carefully into the toilet. When he went in, he didn't forget to take a look at the latrine. It was dark below, so there should be no one hiding there, right?
Seeing Xia Mo go in, Lin Ling moved two steps towards the kitchen door, leaned against the door frame and waited for the child to come out.
Xia Mo heard the movement outside and shivered: "Are you leaving?"
"No, it's outside." Lin Ling felt a little remorseful when he heard Xia Mo was about to cry, maybe he was too scared. She didn't expect that people who have experienced the end of the world would be afraid of watching ghost movies.
"I'll be out soon." Xia Mo's heart thumped, he took off his pants, solved his physical problems as quickly as possible, and then ran out as fast as possible.
After coming out, Xia Mo looked at Lin Ling who was waiting outside, blushing, "I'm fine."
Lin Ling smiled, and when she was really about to speak, the mutated dog also trotted past, went to the toilet and barked at Xia Mo and Lin Ling, then tentatively walked into the toilet.
Lin Ling was stunned for a moment, then asked Xia Mo: "You guys watched it too?"
Xia Mo nodded with a sullen face.
Lin Ling laughed out loud, "Then you wait for it at the door."
At the end of Xia, he was scared by himself, "Wait a little longer, brother ugly, can you?"
"Why did your relationship become so good all of a sudden?" Lin Ling raised her eyebrows. If she remembered correctly, Xia Mo rejected the mutant dog yesterday and complained that the mutant dog ate half of his potatoes.
At the end of Xia, he pulled the brim of the broken hat embarrassingly. He was really embarrassed to say that after secretly watching TV, he was so scared that he hugged Brother Chou and fell asleep.
So no matter what, Xia Mo will not abandon Brother Chou at this time: "Can you wait any longer?"
"Okay." Lin Ling glanced helplessly at the location of the toilet. She never thought that one day she would stand by the toilet and wait for a dog to poop.
After the mutated dog solved the physical problem, Lin Ling could finally leave this stinky place, but as soon as she left, Xia Mo and the mutated dog followed her, saying that they didn't want to stay alone.
Lin Ling looked helplessly at the gradually brightening sky, "It's already dawn, don't follow me anymore."
Xia Mo helped the broken hat on his head, and said awkwardly: "Brother Chou and I will help you with the work."
Lin Ling didn't know what the child was thinking, "Then you light the fire, and I'll cook some potatoes."
As she spoke, she took out six large potatoes from the cabinet, washed them and put them in the water to boil them. When they were cooked, they took them out and divided them into two, one for the morning and the other for the evening.
After eating, the sky was completely bright.
Lin Ling packed up and was ready to go out to plant trees. She pushed the tricycle and went out. When she reached the door, she didn't forget to remind Xia Mo: "Take the hoe."
Xia Mo agreed, turned around and went to the back of the kitchen to get a hoe. When he passed the toilet, he stopped, thinking of the plot he had seen in his mind, and dared not go any further.
But it's already daytime now, so he shouldn't come out, right? At the end of Xia, he boldly looked into the toilet again, and the bright light shone into the toilet, clearly illuminating the pattern inside.
There was nothing unusual, which made Xia Mo feel relieved, and continued to walk forward. After getting the hoe, he turned around and ran outside, fearing that something would chase him out from behind.
Lin Ling looked at Xia Mo who was catching up, "The legs are all healed? Why are you running?"
"It hurts a little bit." Xia Mo sprained his foot the day before yesterday, but after soaking in the pond, it got better a lot. Now it only hurts a little when he runs.
Lin Ling: "That's still running so fast, and there's no dog chasing it."
The mutated dog raised its head and snorted. It did not chase after it.
Xia Mo pulled the brim of his hat, and said embarrassedly: "I think of the plot I've seen again."
Xiaolu, who had already woken up, began to laugh at the end of Xia: coward!
Xia Mo glanced at Xiaolu sideways, and said as if you were not the first one to run away.
Xiaolu didn't notice Xia Mo's expression, and continued to say: You are all cowards!
Xia Mo pursed her lips, turned her head and said to Lin Ling: "That scene is scary, and the sound it makes is also very permeating. Xiaolu was so scared that she ran away first."
Xiaolu, who turned her face and refused to admit it after falling asleep, put her waist in, accusing Xia Mo of nonsense: Don't talk nonsense, I don't!
Then Xiaolu rubbed Lin Ling's wrist again, and said aggrievedly: I'm not afraid.
"Aren't you afraid? Then why are you running?" Lin Ling didn't cooperate with Xiaolu in lying, "Who came into my room and said I was afraid? I have the nerve to say someone else."
Little Green drooped the leaves aggrievedly, who made that little ghost so scary?
Lin Ling didn't watch the video, so it shouldn't be scary from the cover of the disc, "Is it scary?"
Xiaolu and Xia Mo nodded together: "Scary."
Xia Mo asked back: "Aren't you afraid?"
"I'm not a child, how could I be afraid?" Lin Ling also resisted horror movies in her heart, so she never watched them, and only released them specially to let Xia Mo Xiaolu and the others experience the dangers of the world.
Xia Mo looked at Lin Ling adoringly, it was amazing.
Lin Ling smiled silently, "Will you still dare to watch TV in the middle of the night?"
Xiaolu already had a psychological shadow, she shook her head resolutely and said no.
Xia Mo secretly looked at Lin Ling, why did he think she was laughing?
Lin Ling, who successfully taught Mo Xia and them a lesson, rode a tricycle to the open space on the left side of the yard, dug more than a dozen large holes, and planted fruit trees one by one.
A few fruit trees were dug up by the roots, and a few were truncated trunks, all the thickness of a fist, and it took two people to plant them.
One person supported the tree, and the other began to bury the soil. Lin Ling did it very carefully, for fear of breaking the roots.
Xia Mo has been here for more than half a month, and it was the first time he saw Lin Ling planting a tree so carefully, and couldn't help but ask, "What kind of tree is this?"
Lin Ling said without raising her head, "Peach tree is a kind of fruit tree."
At the end of summer, I have never eaten fruit, so I don't know what a fruit tree is, "Fruit tree?"
Lin Ling patiently explained: "It is a tree that can bear fruit, and the fruit it bears is delicious."
Mo Xia's eyes lit up, "Is it better than meat?"
In the hearts of children, meat is the most delicious food in the world.
Lin Ling thought for a while and said, "It's a different taste."
Looking at the planting of fruit trees, Lin Ling recalled the time before the end of the world. Everyone lived and worked in peace and contentment, and lived a happy life. Vegetables, fruits, and meat were all available. You could eat whatever you wanted, and eat as much as you wanted. It was very convenient.
But suddenly one day, everyone was sick, the order was out of order, the world collapsed, and there was nothing left.
While she has no memory of the intervening years, she feels it must have been tough, and luckily it all ended.
Lin Ling sighed, looking at this desolate land with a bit of verdant green, thinking of the sweet and sour taste of the fruit, he became motivated again, worked harder, worked harder, and everything would be fine.
Xia Mo couldn't help but asked again: "Why is it different?"
Lin Ling said: "You'll know when it grows, it's better than potatoes anyway."
"Potatoes are delicious too." Without the protection of his parents, Xia Mo couldn't find food, and he was so hungry that he had eaten soil and tree roots. Since Lai came to Lin Ling, he no longer had to suffer from hunger. The lungs feel better, "I can't get tired of eating every day."
Lin Ling was silent for a moment: "Like to eat? There are not many potatoes in storage."
When she was alone at the beginning, Lin Ling felt that the food was barely enough, but after raising another person, the potatoes were consumed quickly, and the pressure on her shoulders was increasing.
Now there is another mutant dog with a good appetite, Lin Ling sighed, life is not easy!
Xia Mo was stunned for a moment, thinking that it might be because of him, she lowered her head guiltily.
Xiaolu arched Linling's wrist: Look, it's better for me, I won't even eat it!
Lin Ling exposed it mercilessly: "That's because you are picky eaters."
Xia Mo, who had some low self-esteem in his heart, was afraid of being chased away, so he said, "I will only eat one a day from now on."
"It's not that poor yet." Now that Lin Ling has raised her, she won't waste her children's food. Besides, there are still a lot of potatoes, cabbage and radishes planted in the field, so there is nothing to eat. She can ripen another batch with her abilities.
Moreover, Xia Mo and the mutant dog can indeed help her a lot, and if she asks them to work for her with food, it can be regarded as an equivalent exchange. Thinking about it this way, Lin Ling didn't feel any pain anymore.
Lin Ling urged Xia Mo: "Hurry up and help them, the earlier these trees are planted, the sooner they can eat the fruit."
These fruit trees are a few years old. Calculated according to the normal growth rate, it may take three to five years to eat the fruits after digging them up and planting them again. However, Lin Ling has a cheat. .
After they were all planted, Lin Ling used his abilities to help them take root and sprout. After they grew a few green leaves, Lin Ling stopped, and then moved the other roots to the barren hill behind the yard to plant.
Generally, there are more bamboos planted behind the house, so Lin Ling buried dozens of bamboo root knots in the soil to activate the supernatural power. The growth ability of bamboo is very strong, and it will soon take root and sprout.
After the bamboo was planted, Lin Ling went to a further hillside to plant all the other weeds and tree roots, and when the work was over, it was already under the sound.
It was very hot, but she was very pale and felt very cold all over.
Xiaolu noticed Lin Ling's strangeness, and rubbed her with the leaves to tell her not to plant any more.
"It's over." Lin Ling sat slumped on the ground, panting, "I'll just rest for a while."
Xia Mo was not very tired today, so he took the initiative to say, "I'll take Brother Chou to pump water to irrigate the field."
The mutated dog barked and followed Xia Mo.
Seeing this, Lin Ling couldn't help but smile, "You really claimed this name?"
The mutant dog barked again, expressing that he didn't care, then ran away wagging its tail.
"That's fine." Lin Ling curled his lips, said the name of Brother Chou twice, and then smiled, "It's pretty easy to pronounce."
