Chapter 8 Earthworm No. 1

At this moment, Zhang Tie just came out of the water, his whole body was wet, he looked a bit embarrassed, but he was in good spirits. He won the first round against the tenth-level strong fighter named Dawson on Magic Snake Island, humiliated that guy, and escaped from that guy's nose, so of course he has reason to be happy. This is not a combat skill, but a victory of spirit and will.

Dawson didn't say that he was level ten, but judging from his movements of dodging crossbow arrows and his agility when fleeing from a distance, he was almost the same as the bastard from the Zhen family who chased and killed him in the Dragon Cave on the island. From this point, Zhang Tie can judge his level.

As expected, Magic Snake Island sent a tenth-level master to kill him. While Zhang Tie felt the pressure, a wildfire in his heart was completely ignited. This Dawson, is The first stepping stone on the road to becoming a strong man.

"Have the seeds of seabuckthorn started to catalyze?" Zhang Tie asked Heller.

"The first batch of 400 seeds has already begun to catalyze according to different input plans. The first results will be known within three weeks at the earliest. If there are seeds of evolved and mutated seabuckthorn trees, they can be used later. Increase the input of aura value to make the seed grow rapidly, bear fruit, and then obtain a large number of mutated and evolved seabuckthorn tree species!" Heller said calmly, "The aura value and basic energy reserves of the Black Iron Fortress are not bad. Support, but the daily increase of merit is a bit slow. The main source of merit now is the release of animals arranged by the castle master on Qianlong Island. Such release can provide Black Iron Castle with merits ranging from 50 to 70 per day value."

Zhang Tie thought about it, and remembered that on the Aurora, because of the need to generate the Flower of Life, his accumulated merit points were only more than 500. Now that he has to complete the catalysis of so many seabuckthorn seeds at one time, it is estimated that those merit values ​​​​are In addition, the accumulation of the past few days has also dried up.

"Wait a few more days. There should be a batch of merit points in the account!" Zhang Tie said with some uncertainty.

"Maybe?" Haile looked at Zhang Tie suspiciously, feeling very unimpressed by such uncertain things.

Zhang Tie scratched his head, "This is the agreement I made with others last year. If there is no accident, maybe in a few days, a batch of merits for releasing earthworms will arrive!"

Heller relieved...

If Hannah's family members still abide by the agreement I made with them before leaving Brape, then, probably in the recent period, Hannah's family members will start to regroup in Chevri Village and its surrounding villages. The earthworms were released, and after a year of recuperation, the number of earthworms that were originally used as feed returned to the previous level. It should be possible to release him.

But I have been away from Blape for such a long time, and I was forced to leave in the name of a wanted criminal. I haven't contacted for such a long time. Will Hannah's family members still fulfill their previous agreement with me? a little. Zhang Tie was not sure.

Although he is not in Brape now, the Fruit of Creation has given him the ability to control those yeasts. But it can still make the beer brewed by Hannah no longer have the taste and taste of when Hannah won the Brape beer queen.

Zhang Tie didn't know that after winning the crown of beer queen. How is the life of Hannah's family now, and how much has it changed from before? If Hannah's family does not fulfill the agreement with him, he can completely make Hannah's family the same as before as revenge, but Zhang Tie does not want to leave This last step, Hannah's family treated him well at the beginning. Hannah also brought him a lot of happiness. If Hannah's family really didn't fulfill the plan agreed between them, then that's fine.

Zhang Tie also didn't want to see the woman he had a good time with end up with nothing.

The value of merit can be found in other ways depending on the opportunity. Zhang Tie doesn’t believe in such a big ice and snow wasteland, and he doesn’t even give himself the opportunity to do good deeds. At worst, he will return to the Avin Dara Islands and be a lunatic and a psychopath in the eyes of others. Find a fishery production area and release tens of thousands of gold coins again.

"Speaking of earthworms, I just have some good news to tell the castle master. The earthworms in the Black Iron Castle have completed a collective mutation evolution. A new earthworm species has just been born in the Black Iron Castle. Lord Castle Lord named it!" Heller smiled.

Zhang Tie was stunned for a moment when he heard the news, and then he was overjoyed. It has been almost a year, and the earthworms, bees, and primordial spirit yeast, potatoes, and corns in the Black Iron Fortress have been allowed to complete the work of re-evolution He completely handed it over to Heller, and just when he was about to forget about it, he did not expect that another new species was born in the Black Iron Fortress. Although Zhang Tie hadn't figured out how these earthworms could help him for the time being, Zhang Tie's mood was full of sunshine when he thought of being able to eat another fruit of creation and control a brand new species.

Zhang Tie was about to open the control panel of the Black Iron Fort to check, but was stopped by Heller.

Haile pointed to Zhang Tie's clothes that were still dripping water at this moment, "Master, why don't you change your clothes first and then check it later!"

Zhang Tie smiled and followed Haile's suggestion. Anyway, we have already arrived at the Black Iron Fort, and there is plenty of time behind, so what's the rush at this time.

Later, Zhang Tie took a shower in the Black Iron Fort, and then changed into clean clothes. He sat down on the chair in the room refreshed and comfortable, and then opened the Black Iron Fort. Fort's Bio and Community Management panel, in the Animal Management project under Carbon-Based Bio and Community Management, found information on what Heller said was a new species of earthworm.

Three-dimensional holograms of two kinds of earthworms appeared in front of Zhang Tie at once...

Just from the appearance of the two kinds of earthworms, you can see the difference between the two kinds of earthworms.

The individual color of ordinary earthworms before mutation is red and reddish brown, which is also the color of most earthworms, while the body color of mutated earthworms is based on the red and reddish brown, with two more heads and tails. circle black ring.

In terms of size, the mutated earthworms are larger than the unmutated ones.

Under this three-dimensional hologram, there is still a comparison of the differences between the chromosomes and dna of the two earthworms. Zhang Tie felt that he could not understand these things anyway, so he simply skipped to the end. Directly check the new characteristics of this mutated earthworm.

——The black-ringed earthworm is a brand-new earthworm species that has completed a mutation evolution. Compared with ordinary earthworms, this earthworm has stronger environmental adaptability. Its survival time under light conditions is 31% higher than that of ordinary earthworms. At the same time, the earthworm has stronger adaptability to various soils and soil properties, and has a higher ability to fertilize and improve soil activity.

——The feces of this earthworm contain 2.75% nitrogen, 1.96% phosphorus, 0.37% potassium, and 35.4% organic matter, and contain 23 kinds of amino acids, rich in earthworm enzymes, and there are more than 10,000 beneficial microorganisms in each gram of vermicompost——and There are only more than a hundred in the old and poor soil. Its earthworm enzyme can kill a variety of viruses in the soil, harmful bacteria and a large number of special substances that can inhibit the growth of plants.

"My lord, please name this new earthworm!" Seeing that Zhang Tie had finished reading the introduction. Heller said from the side.

"Let's call it No. 1 earthworm!" Zhang Tie thought about it casually, and used the way of a lazy person to name this new earthworm.

Haile just nodded at Zhang Tie's name for the earthworm, not dissatisfied at all, just judging from Zhang Tie's expression. Heller felt that Zhang Tie probably hadn't fully understood the meaning of the existence of this kind of earthworm.

"Does the castle master know what the real function of these earthworms is?"

"Isn't it fertilizing the fields and improving the soil?" Zhang Tie asked strangely.

"That's true, but does this function have any significance for the castle master?"

"What does it mean to me?" Zhang Tie seemed to think of something all of a sudden.

"That's right. Has the castle master thought about it?" Heller said with a smile.

"Could it be...they can make the land completely needless to be cultivated!" Zhang Tie was shocked.

"That's right. In the future, as long as the owner of the castle is willing, as long as there are such earthworms, all the farmland can be sown in turn without plowing. On a piece of land of 10,000 square meters, there are only 900,000 of these earthworms." They live in the soil. Their cultivation effect on the land can exceed the labor achievement of 4 skilled farmers who work hard to cultivate the land for 8 hours a day. Not only that, the manure grown by these 900,000 earthworms every year is equivalent to that. The land of 10,000 square meters is increased with more than 140 tons of high-grade organic fertilizer every year!"

Although Zhang Tie has never been a farmer and has planted a lot of land, the education model that emphasized the ability to survive in the school when he was in Heiyan City made him very clear about what farming is all about. It can be said that at least from the cataclysm Since a long time ago, farming, an important agricultural activity, has been closely related to planting and agriculture. The most widely circulated sentence may be remembered by everyone - no farming, no harvest. From this we can see the status of farming in agriculture, and this farming activity is almost the most energy-intensive and money-consuming thing in all rural areas. Now, as Heller said, as long as there are such earthworms, All farmland and land can be no-tillage.

"Don't be surprised, in fact, long before the catastrophe, the more advanced and more natural agricultural model promoted by some countries and regions among human beings has discovered this role of earthworms, and many regions have promulgated it. Putting earthworms in the soil on a large scale can replace manpower and mechanical farming, which not only saves a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, but also improves the quality of the soil, and can continuously purify the toxic and harmful substances in the soil!"

"Then why wasn't this method popularized on a large scale at the time?"

"There are many reasons, except that this method was not known to more people at the time, the obstruction of the powerful selfish interest groups entangled in the traditional agricultural model is the most important reason! The traditional agricultural model at that time was a low-level Yes, eager for quick success, the practice of separating farmland and crops from their connection with nature, this model can make some people rich, and all those who can get rich here naturally don't want their money to be ruined by a small The earthworms are blocked!"

Zhang Tie understands that people's greed, selfishness and arrogance make many people think that they are better than the creator. In order to cultivate and fertilize, people have invented many machines, but they don't know that the most powerful machine is just this humble one. earthworms.

From this point of view, the No. 1 earthworm is indeed of great use, but the number of these earthworms is relatively small now. If you want them to play a huge role, you need a considerable number, such as the Black Iron Castle. In a large place, if you want to turn this land into a permanent farmland, according to Heller's calculations, you need to put at least 6 million No. 1 earthworms here.

Fortunately, earthworms reproduce very quickly.

After solving the earthworm problem, Zhang Tie came under the small tree.

On the small tree, in addition to Zhang Tie's long-awaited second iron tooth hyena seven power fruit, there was indeed a lentil-like fruit of creation.

——The fruit of creation has already matured, and the method of use is to eat it directly after being picked. Note that the fruit cannot be taken away from the Black Iron Fortress. After twelve hours of picking, the energy and vitality in the fruit will gradually lose.

——All creations have infinite karma, because you, the No. 1 earthworm, first appeared in this world, they were created by you, so they belong to you, you are the father and god of the created things, This fruit of creation will give you the strongest control over this earthworm species in the world from now on. This control is based on the material existence rules of No. 1 earthworm. Your will and command are the meaning of their existence. .

Looking at this fruit of creation, Zhang Tie picked it off with a pious mood. Before eating this fruit of creation, Zhang Tie touched the trunk of the little tree and said to the little tree seriously: In one sentence, "Thank you, I would not be where I am today without you, please believe that I will not let this magical fruit you bear go to waste!"

The leaves of the small tree were whirling, as if in response to Zhang Tie.

After Zhang Tie ate the miraculous fruit, it quickly became a miraculous instinct in Zhang Tie's consciousness. Zhang Tie didn't even need to count it deliberately, he just wanted to know, and then everything about these earthworms He knew it - there are a total of 185,919 No. 1 earthworms in the Black Iron Fort at this moment.

The earthworms like the Black Iron Castle very much, especially the soil near the Chaos Pool seems to be their holy land for these earthworms.

Breed, reproduce vigorously, from now on, your biggest task is to increase the number of your brand new species—this is Zhang Tie's first order to those earthworms.

After giving this order, Zhang Tie took off the seven-li fruit that looked like a small handicraft of an iron-toothed hyena, sat under the small tree, and put the seven-li fruit in his mouth...
