Survival: Starting with a Tiny Treehouse

Chapter 3: Planting a tree house

Views:

When he woke up, it was already daybreak. Xu Xin looked at his calves and arms, wiped off the dried herbs on them, and found that the scratches had completely disappeared, as if he had never been injured at all.

"It's really useful." Xu Xin exclaimed. It turned out that the herbs in this world didn't have such quick effects.

As soon as the sky brightened, Xu Xin quickly got up and walked out of the cave. Although he was in the novice protection period, he was still subconsciously a little nervous about this cave and quickly fled from here.

Munching on apples and eating berries, Xu Xin returned to the stream and walked downstream again.

As they walked for a day, the stream was no longer the small stream it was at the beginning. Instead, it gradually became wider and the water depth reached about one meter. Many fish and shrimps could be seen in the water at a glance, which made Xu Xin a little envious.

However, he did not waste his energy on this. The top priority now was to find fertile soil.

Along the way, Xu Xin saw five pieces of ordinary soil, and the rest were all barren soil, which made him feel very strange.

He has been walking for such a long time and has never seen fertile soil, not to mention other survivors who do not have the ability of creator. It is basically impossible to find fertile soil by feeling, and even ordinary soil is basically impossible, unless you have the same ability as him.

Could it be that this world never intended for them to grow high-end tree houses

Thinking of this, Xu Xin suddenly became interested.

If he could find fertile soil and grow a high-end tree house, wouldn't that mean that his starting point was much higher than that of most people

It's stable.

Let's try to find fertile soil today. Xu Xin doesn't want to sleep outdoors anymore, he wants to live in a tree house.

As he continued walking, Xu Xin began to think about the laws of soil and these materials.

So far, he has only seen two colors, white and green, and white materials are one level lower than green. The five green ordinary soils he has seen were all discovered after the discovery of green plants, because those green plants grow in ordinary soils.

But not all green plants grow in ordinary soil, they may also grow in poor soil.

In other words, poor soil (white) will most likely grow white-level plants, but there is also a certain chance that green-level plants will grow, while ordinary soil (green) currently only grows green plants.

Perhaps there is a certain possibility of growing more advanced plants.

While thinking, Xu Xin suddenly saw a broad expanse of green in his vision. He was delighted. Could it be...

He quickly ran forward for a while, looked at the place where the green light was coming from, and was immediately overjoyed.

"It's a lake! I knew there was a lake!" Xu Xin almost jumped up with excitement.

The area around a lake is much flatter than that around a stream, making it more suitable for settling down. Moreover, since there is a lake, the surrounding resources must be abundant, and you might be able to find a fertile soil.

One thousand meters is not very far. Xu Xin soon reached the edge of the lake. Looking at the rippling lake surface and the finally widening view, he breathed a long sigh of relief and felt relaxed all over.

This lake is really not small. Of course, it cannot be compared with the big lakes formed by the confluence of big rivers, but it is also the size of an ordinary reservoir. The water is very clear. The middle of the lake looks very deep, but the lakeshore is very shallow. Various fish and shrimps are swimming in the lake. There are patches of reeds growing by the lake, and there are lotus leaves and lotus flowers on the lake. If it were not for the current situation, Xu Xin would even feel that he was in a park.

Reed (green): A plant that grows by the lake, which seems to be the raw material for making some kind of tool.

Lotus root (green): A food that can be eaten raw or cooked.

"Good stuff!" One kind of raw material, one kind of food, this place is really the best choice for settlement. But is there any fertile soil around here...

Xu Xin looked around, and suddenly, a blue light appeared in his vision.

"Beautiful!" Xu Xin jumped up and rushed directly towards the blue light.

The blue bushes are only a few dozen meters away from the lake.

Red berry large (blue): A fruit that can be eaten directly, with a sweet and sour taste. It has the effect of improving eyesight and can provide 2 hours of night vision when eaten.

"What the hell!" Xu Xin was shocked again, "Blue quality red berries can have such an effect?"

However, these are not the main points. Xu Xin slowly looked down...

Fertile Soil (Blue): A fertile soil that is very rich in nutrients such as organic matter, which is rare even in the jungle.

"Nice!" Xu Xin clenched his fist excitedly.

After calming down, Xu Xin did not rush to plant, but walked around the lake to see if there was any other fertile soil.

However, to his disappointment, at least in the area around the lake, there seemed to be only this one fertile soil. There was a lot of ordinary soil, much more than by the stream before. Basically, nearly half of the soil was ordinary soil. At a glance, the proportion of green was not much less than that of white, and there were also a few scattered blue spots, which were blue plants growing in ordinary soil.

His guess should be correct. Soil of a certain level can not only grow plants of the same level, but also has a certain probability of growing plants of a higher level.

It seems that places like this lake are the suitable areas that survivors are looking for to plant tree houses. Although there is only one piece of fertile soil, the ground is covered with ordinary soil (green). As long as such an area is found, at least the probability of planting a "low tree house" can be minimized.

After all, the name of a low tree house sounds unsafe.

After wasting a lot of time trying to get nothing done, Xu Xin stopped wasting time. He returned to the blue-red berry bush and picked all the red berries, 32 in total. Then he hesitated for a moment and tried not to dig up the bush. He dug a small hole next to it and planted the walnut-sized tree house seeds.

After all, this piece of land is 1 meter by 1 meter in size, and half of it has no plants growing on it.

The tree house seed was planted successfully, and the growth time is 2 hours left

Wild plants growing in the soil have been automatically cleared.

The first hint made Xu Xin's eyes light up, but the second hint immediately discouraged him. It really didn't work. It seemed that a piece of soil could only grow one kind of plant.

The big bush of red berries disappeared without a trace in an instant. A small seedling emerged from the soil and began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye. In less than a minute, it grew into a small sapling.

Xu Xin was amazed, the growth rate was truly amazing.
