Zhao Hai pointed at the top of the grass and said, "Can you see that? The most important thing about these grasses is that they rely on seeds to reproduce. They can produce seeds four to five times a year, and each time, they can produce 20-20 seeds. As for the dead grasses, their roots will remain in the grasses. When it rains the next year, their old roots will rot, and new grasses will grow. This way, their old roots can slowly improve the desert's soil, making the desert a suitable environment for plants to grow. I believe that it won't take long before the desert becomes better than the prairie. "Zhao Hai nodded and said," That's right. I'm sure that it won't take long before the desert becomes better than the prairie. "
Fire Phoenix and the others were quietly listening to Zhao Hai's words. They didn't think that Zhao Hai's research would reach this level, this was too amazing. Zhao Hai's group had already reached this level of success, this was too astonishing.
Zhao Hai looked at everyone and said, "Let's look at the Bottle Tree. Although it's a good thing, to be honest, it isn't the most suitable plant for the Prairie. If the desert becomes a prairie in the future, then these Bottle Trees might become an obstacle to the prairie. But this doesn't matter. When the time comes, we can remove some of these Bottle Trees. The bark can be made into hemp, rope, and even linen clothes. Moreover, the Bottle Trees can also be used to make fires. If the Bottle Trees are big enough, then you can make them into small houses or feed them to your horses. In any case, I hope that the desert can maintain a certain number of Bottle Trees in the future. This would be very good for the development of the desert." Zhao Hai looked at the group and said, "The Bottle Trees can also be used to make firewood.
Everyone nodded. Zhao Hai looked at the distant desert, his eyes shined as he said, "Everyone, think about it. In the future, there will be pastures and fields. The people of the desert won't have to worry about the wind and sand. In the future, the children won't have to worry about food. For this Zhao Hai to be able to accomplish this, even if I die, I can rest in peace."
Everyone looked at Zhao Hai. At this time, the Blood Skull arrived in front of Zhao Hai and gave him a salute. Then he loudly said, "Mister, please accept my salute!"
At this time, the others also reacted. They all gave a salute to Zhao Hai and loudly said, "Mister, please accept my salute!"
Zhao Hai looked at them and smiled, then he helped them up and said, "Alright, you don't need to be polite. I know what you want to say, you want to thank me for everything I've done for the Desert. Actually, there's no need for that. I'm a Plant Master, but at the same time, I'm also a person from the Desert. Although I came here later, I still like this place and want to do something for it. Therefore, you don't need to thank me, this is what I should do, it's what I like to do, it's not something that I have to do."
The Blood Skull looked at Zhao Hai, then he suddenly laughed and said, "Alright, Crane Field is truly worthy of being called Crane Field. I underestimated you. Crane Field, from today onwards, you're my brother. I'll always remember what your Hu Family did for the desert. I can guarantee that as long as the Blood Skull Stronghold exists, no matter what your Hu Family wants us to do, as long as you say the word, we'll do anything. If I frown, then I won't be called the Blood Skull Stronghold!"
The others nodded and said loudly, "That's right. As long as we're still here, as long as the people of the desert are still here, you, Crane Field, will always be a person of the desert. Your Hu Clan will always be the benefactor of the desert."
Zhao Hai laughed and said, "Alright, I'll remember everyone's words. Alright, I won't talk nonsense. Now that the rainy season is about to arrive, I didn't call all of you here just to show you the results of our research. I also want to tell you that after a month, you must send people to the old man's stronghold to get the seeds. At the same time, you must bring your Plant Masters back. Then under the guidance of those Plant Masters, you must expand your oasis. The desert is too big, it's impossible to turn the desert into a grassland by ourselves. We need to work together."
The Blood Skull nodded and said, "Alright, that won't be a problem. After a month, we'll certainly send people over. Under their guidance, we'll expand our oasis. We must turn the desert into a grassland as soon as possible." The Blood Skull nodded.
The others nodded as well. Zhao Hai looked at everyone and said, "Alright, then it's settled. This month will be our busiest month. We will be cultivating a large amount of Bottle Tree seeds as well as Crane Field seeds. Therefore, during this month, we must not be disturbed."
Everyone nodded. The Blood Skull thought for a moment before he said, "How about this, the ten strongholds will send a message to the smaller strongholds. During this month, they must send people to guard the old man's stronghold. We must make sure that nothing goes wrong. This matter is related to the future of the desert."
The others nodded as well. If someone were to disturb Zhao Hai and the others, then they wouldn't even have a place to cry in the future.
After that, everyone returned to the old man's stronghold. Zhao Hai wanted them to eat something, but the Blood Skull and the others weren't in the mood. They went back to prepare for the next month. At the same time, they also needed to pay attention to the situation in the Tiger Soul Country.
After they left, Zhao Hai and the others began to get busy again. This time, Zhao Hai divided everyone into two groups. One group was made up of the Plant Masters sent by the other strongholds. They were in charge of cultivating Crane Field seeds. Crane Field seeds were relatively easy to cultivate, they just needed to mature the grass. As for the Hu Family, they were in charge of making Bottle Tree seeds.
The Bottle Tree must be made into a mutated seed. This didn't mean that the mutated Bottle Tree would have any special abilities. It was just that the mutated Bottle Tree could grow in the shortest amount of time. This was the most important point.
When the Bottle Tree grows up, it can provide water for the Crane Field. This was the most important point. When it comes to making Variant Seeds, the Plant Masters in the desert couldn't compare to the Hu Family. As long as the Hu Family's Plant Masters were men, they would be able to make Variant Seeds very quickly. Because of this, Zhao Hai had the Hu Family focus on making Variant Seeds.
During this month, outsiders might not know, but the people in the desert were very clear. The atmosphere in the desert was tense to the extreme. Whether it was the Ten Great Strongholds or the smaller strongholds, all of them had their eyes wide open. As long as someone dared to enter the old man's stronghold, they would immediately be attacked. Not to mention people, even if a bird flew past, they would still need to see if it was a male or a female.
Time passed little by little. A month slowly passed while everyone was nervous. Although it wasn't raining in the desert, as long as one was in the desert, they would know that the rainy season had arrived.
At the same time, the people of the Ten Great Desert Strongholds sent people to the old man's stronghold. Not only did they bring back the plant masters sent by their strongholds, but they also brought back a large number of seeds. These plant masters and seeds were all tightly protected by the strongholds, and there were also guards around them.
But at this time, news came that the Tiger Soul Nation's army had entered the desert. The Tiger Soul Nation's actions were like pouring gasoline on a raging fire. With a boom, the fire was set to explode.
All of the strongholds in the desert were immediately angered. At this time, the desert was about to turn into a grassland. At this time, the Tiger Soul Country's army dared to cause trouble. This was too infuriating, they must die.
In a short time, the strongholds of the Grand Desert formed an alliance and rushed towards the Tiger Soul Country's army. This time, the Tiger Soul Country had sent a hundred thousand soldiers to the Grand Desert. These hundred thousand soldiers were all elites. They wanted to come to the Grand Desert in order to retaliate against the strongholds. They also knew that with their strength, it was impossible for them to annihilate the strongholds of the Grand Desert. They just wanted to teach the strongholds a lesson and make them understand that the Tiger Soul Country wasn't easy to bully.
If it was before, the strongholds in the desert wouldn't have such a big reaction. However, it was different now. The strongholds in the desert were all thinking of changing the desert's environment. At this time, the Tiger Soul Country's army entered the desert. Wasn't this clearly showing that they were here to cause trouble? How could the strongholds let them go?
The alliance of the strongholds sent their most elite troops and gave the Tiger Soul Country's army a head-on blow. They had the advantage in numbers and equipment. One side was cavalry while the other side was infantry. One side was familiar with the environment while the other side was unfamiliar with it. In this case, the Tiger Soul Country's army wanting to gain an advantage in the desert was simply a pipe dream.
Of course, the strongholds didn't rashly attack the Tiger Soul Country's army. The Tiger Soul Country's chariots weren't to be trifled with. These chariots were absolutely a sharp weapon against cavalry. However, the Tiger Soul Country chose the wrong time. These chariots had a big weakness, and that was that they were afraid of water. On rainy days, these chariots were tantamount to decorations.
Unfortunately, the Tiger Soul Country's army entered the desert during the rainy season. It was impossible for them to know the desert's weather better than the desert bandits. Therefore, on a rainy day, the desert bandit alliance launched a surprise attack on the Tiger Soul Country's army. They rode against the rain and attacked the Tiger Soul Country's army. The Tiger Soul Country's army was scattered in an instant.
Although the Tiger Soul Country's army was made up of elites, the desert bandits weren't to be trifled with. Moreover, the cavalry's charge wasn't something that ordinary infantry could resist. After a few charges, the Tiger Soul Country's army was divided. Then, it became a one-sided massacre.
After the rain stopped, the Tiger Soul Country's army was almost completely slaughtered. Even if there were some who fled, they couldn't escape the desert. The desert was a place where people were eaten. A few people, without any supplies, and without being familiar with the desert, wanted to escape? That was simply a dream. There was no need for people to chase them, they would be eaten by the desert.
It can be said that this war came quickly and ended even faster. A hundred thousand troops entered the desert. It was like a drop of water entering the sand. There was no reaction at all as they directly disappeared.
While the battle was going on, the villages in the desert weren't idle either. The Bottle Tree and the pasture were planted before the first rain came. The pasture didn't need to be taken care of by the plant masters, but the Bottle Tree was different. There was only one Bottle Tree, and it needed a plant master to activate it. Therefore, the villages were very busy.
Finally, before the first rain of the day arrived in the desert, all the villages in the desert planted the vase trees and grass that they needed to plant. After the first rain, the villages realized that the grass that they planted had already sprouted. Looking at the green grass sprouts, the entire desert cheered.
The Bottle Trees also absorbed a lot of water during the rain. However, they weren't full yet. This was something that couldn't be helped. The current Bottle Trees were a lot bigger than the first batch that Zhao Hai used. The amount of water that they could store was five times more than the first batch. The thickest part of the Bottle Trees had a diameter of 20 to 30 meters. This was also the reason why Zhao Hai said that if the Bottle Trees were cut down, they could be used to make houses.
After two months of the rainy season, the newly planted pasture had already grown to the size of half a Mego. At the same time, the pasture started to produce seeds. The Bottle Trees were also filled with water. The people of the desert were also in ecstasy. This was because the area of their Oasis was much bigger than before.
Even the strongholds that didn't have Plant Masters were able to obtain some pasture seeds. Since they didn't have Plant Masters to activate the Bottle Trees, they could only plant pasture. Although the pasture couldn't live as long as the strongholds with the Bottle Trees, it still gave the strongholds hope. This was because even without the Bottle Trees, the pasture could still live for four to five months. The people of the strongholds could cut down the pasture before it completely withered. They could store the pasture and use it to raise livestock.
They also didn't have to worry about the pasture's reproduction. This was because the pasture could produce seeds two to three times in these four to five months. Therefore, when they cut down the pasture, a lot of the seeds had already fallen to the ground. When the next rainy season comes, the seeds would still be able to grow. Even without the Bottle Trees, they could still change their living environment.
After two months, the rainy season passed. The people of the desert slowly calmed down from their ecstasy. They began to worry about the pasture that they had planted. They didn't know how long the pasture could last. It can be said that after the rainy season, Zhao Hai's plan to change the environment of the desert would be tested.
When the people in the desert had nothing to do, they would stare at the newly grown grass. Once they found out that the grass had seeds, other than the first batch of seeds that fell to the ground, they would collect the other seeds and carefully preserve them. They even valued them more than food because these small seeds were their hope, the hope of the entire desert. Although the seeds were small, they could turn the desert into an oasis, and turn a land of death into a paradise!
