Chapter 374 Giant Dragon Bamboo
Banbu didn't know how long the rainy season lasted and when the dry season began. He didn't dare to stay in Chiwu Mountain for more time. He just had a day off and everything was arranged. He set off immediately.
The dragon bamboo is against Chiwu Mountain, which is related to whether a sea of trees is worth building, and the pursuit and dream of Chiwu Ghost King is a lifelong pursuit and dream.
The Red Ghost King was particularly generous to Banbu and prepared a whole large pocket of high-quality Force food condensed by the seeds of God. They were all easy-to-preserve dried fruits specially purchased from the caravan in the late summer last year.
The Force food condensed by ordinary life plants, under the same volume, contains less force than the rough stone.
The Force food condensed by the God-given plant, the Force contained in the same volume is higher than that of the rough stone. Generally speaking, the higher the quality, the thicker the Force contained.
This bag of raw stones is very particular.
When flying along the plank road, whenever you arrive at a supply base, you will take out the reserved ordinary Force food from the base to eat, and use only a small amount of high-quality Force food in the middle.
When we head straight to the Western Regions and head south, there was no supply base along the way, so we slowed down slightly to reduce the consumption of high-quality Force food. In short, we should save food as much as possible.
The time spent is reduced to 2 months along the way.
The banner has been under control, and half a bag is left, and it is planned to be kept for use when returning. In this way, the return journey will only take 2 months.
...
The rainy season in the wasteland seemed to be coming to an end. When Banbu arrived, it happened to be rainy and rainy. The rain was very small and lasted for a short time. The thunder and lightning were very intense.
The 10 dragon bamboos transplanted grew into 32 bamboo poles in total, forming a small bamboo forest, with a lot of them intact.
After the rain, the scorching sun is exposed.
Banbu collected animal feces everywhere, fed water from nearby river beaches, and performed the last irrigation and fertilization.
I encountered two more light rains, followed by hot and high temperatures.
The native plants in the wasteland were the first to perceive and had already bloomed. At this time, the fruit seeds entered the ripening season.
There was no more rain in the following time.
The high temperature and lack of water, the native plants on the wasteland are sun-yellow, but they are not dead, and enter a semi-dead dormant state. The mature seeds dry up, each showing their magical powers, and different plantings spread the seeds in their own ways.
Banbu is sure that the dry season is coming. According to the calendar you have set, it is probably early August. Referring to the developmental rules of the bamboo, it stimulates flowering and fruits, and the fruits must be harvested until early October.
Calculate the time, the seeds are ripe and picked, and do not stay much, and they are transported directly. They can be sent back to Lizhu Peak in spring next year.
Just right.
The striped cloth stopped watering the bamboo seeds.
Dragon bamboo is mainly not tolerant of cold and has relatively strong drought resistance.
The scorching sun is exposed, and there is no rainfall for a long time. The air is getting dryer, and the change in air humidity is also the main factor that stimulates the flowering of bamboo species.
The drought in the dry season of the wasteland is smoothly stimulated and bloomed. The dioecious flowers bloomed differently, and the male flowers bloomed one or two days earlier. Naturally, dragon bamboos spread pollen by wind power, and the probability of success is extremely small. Under the premise of a large bamboo forest, none of ten female flowers can successfully obtain pollen.
The strip cloth now has only a small bamboo forest with only 32 bamboo poles, and wind pollination is almost impossible, so measures must be taken.
The dragon bamboo pole is too high, and the difficulty coefficient increases accordingly.
The body of the nape cloth is huge, so you must be careful to flail the veins and fly to keep a sufficient distance from the flowers. Use a small piece of metal wire to cover the broken leg of an ordinary bee. The metal ability controls the broken leg fuzz to touch the male flower and collect pollen.
The mental power is divided into two parts, and the distraction is used.
At the same time, lock the female flowers that are ready to pollinate, and then control the metal wire to fly slowly. The broken legs stained with pollen touch the female flowers' stamens to complete the pollination.
In order to ensure the excellence of seed genes, Banbu adopts cross-pollination, which increases the difficulty.
The flowering period is only two or three days, and the best pollination time is only one day. Fortunately, there are only 32 bamboo poles in total. The workload is not that of Peking University. It was busy all day and successfully completed.
The most critical links of flowering and pollination are completed, and the next work will be much easier to freely paint.
Keep abreast of the flowers, waiting for the flowers to fade and the fruits to grow.
...
Banbu soon discovered that after not working for many years, his pollination technology has actually grown slightly. The fruit rate of pollinating flowers exceeds 50%. 32 bamboo poles have condensed a total of 244 bamboo fruits, much more than expected.
Wait patiently for a month and a half.
In early October, the 10 dragon bamboo transplanted were exhausted from the last bit of vitality, and at the same time, the bamboo fruits were fully ripe.
The dragon bamboo fruit is like the hemp bamboo fruit. It has a hard shell on the outside and grains on the inside. A fruit contains more than ten seeds.
The wet fruit needs to be dried.
Banbu strings bamboo fruits with a four-wire metal string, hangs them on the tentacles, sets out directly, and embarks on the way home.
In the dry season, the sun is violent enough and the air is dry. The sparse and dry plants seem to be spontaneously ignited at any time.
After walking for four or five days, the bamboo fruits hanging on the antennae will be completely dry.
The dwarf stopped, peeled off the husks, and picked seeds one by one.
Select 500 seeds with full grains, divide them into two parts, one part for Chiwu Mountain, and one part for Lizhu Peak.
The number of seeds with insufficient grains is the largest, with nearly 2,000 being thrown away.
In addition, there are more than 300 shriveled and deformed seeds, all of which are left and taken back to Lizhu Peak to sow. This is a habit that has been cultivated for decades of cultivation of bamboo seeds. Theoretically, these seeds have a probability of less than one in billions of developing into the dragon bamboo distortion species that can blossom and bear fruit every year.
...
Half a bag of high-quality Force food left.
Bancubing saves food.
Along the way, we moved forward without any speed and speed. The area with sparse vegetation ran on the ground. When we encountered an insurmountable jungle, we flapped our wings and flew low.
It is much more convenient to enter the plank road opened by Chiwu Mountain. Run directly along the ground of the plank road. Every time you go to a supply station, ordinary Force food can be used.
After rushing for two months, I successfully returned to Chiwu Mountain.
The dragon bamboo seeds are evenly divided, and the cooperative relationship between the two parties ends, followed by a competitive relationship.
Banbu doesn’t stay for a long time, and then goes straight to the road after a short rest.
In order not to affect the flight speed, the seeds were packed in metal bottles and tied to the thighs and carapaces.
Flying in the air, galloping hard.
At the end of early spring in January, the seeds were sent back to Lizhu Peak.
At this time, the members on the mountain received the message that they had opened up the breeding nursery in advance and the nutrient soil had been allocated long ago.
The cloth fell to the ground, and the seeds were sent immediately. I worked overtime to make the nutrient soil into a nutritional group, and the seeds were sown.
Banbu guarded the red rice and tummy bamboo, observing at all times.
The Wax Ghost King and the Fuchloss Butterfly King Lai were on Li Zhu Peak for a few days, watching the dragon bamboo seeds sprout and the young bamboo shoots broke out of the ground before leaving.
There is no problem with dragon bamboo, but due to long-distance transportation issues, the bamboo seeds in Li Zhufeng were one month later than Chiwu Mountain, which is a big step behind.
Moreover, in their opinion, the Mazhu in Lizhu Peak has problems. The members of Lizhu Peak are too tender and have no experience inheritance from their ancestors. The breeding technology is OK, and the seed selection technology is seriously immature. The growth of Mazhu-1 is very poor.
The hybrid names of Mazhu-1 and Longzhu have been decided, and Chiwu Mountain and Lizhu Peak are named "Gianlongzhu".
The Wax Ghost King and the Fuchloss Butterfly King left confidently. Without any surprise, the seeds given by the giant dragon and bamboo god must have fallen on their Chiwu Mountain.
Little did they know that as soon as they left, a batch of high-quality Mazhu No. 1 bamboo seedlings were transported from Huozhu Mountain and sowed in experimental sites that had been selected long ago.
