Chapter 228 Growing Vegetables
"Didn't we just see each other this morning?" Lin Baiyan looked at the aggrieved big dog in front of him with amusement.
Lang Cang accused him vehemently, "Where have I seen you? You weren't even awake when I left, and I haven't seen you for a whole day!"
"You don't care about me at all, you don't miss me at all!" Lang Cang felt more and more aggrieved. Why did he feel that his little partner was not clingy at all?
This makes him seem very immature.
Lin Baiyan was overjoyed. His eyes lit up and he came up with an idea. "So, do you dislike me?"
"How could that be? I would never look down on you!" Lang Cang immediately retorted.
"Alright then," Lin Baiyan said, a smile playing on her lips. She picked up a fur handkerchief from the side, wiped her oily fingers, and then moved closer to Lang Cang, holding his head in her arms and planting a wet, oily kiss on his forehead.
Finally, he leaned close to Lang Cang's ear and said, "I promise you I'll stay tonight."
Wolf Cang was caught off guard by his little partner's initiative to get close. He blinked blankly for a moment, and after he came to his senses, he shamelessly pushed his luck and said, "Give me another kiss."
Lin Baiyan looked at the oil stains on his handsome face from her kisses and couldn't help but laugh. "Your face is covered in oil now." The implication was that if she kissed him again, there would be even more.
"I don't care, I don't care, just kiss me again." Even if Lin Baiyan kissed Lang Cang's entire face until it was covered in oil stains, he would only be happy that Lang Cang was close to him.
Lin Baiyan looked at the slightly childish Lang Cang in front of him with curiosity; it was a different version of Lang Cang.
Unlike the powerful and cold-faced clan leader in front of outsiders, Lin Baiyan found himself somewhat fond of this version of Lang Cang.
Inside the house, two people were laughing and joking. Outside, the bright moon hung high in the sky, and the sound of birds flying through the forest could be heard from time to time. The little house, bathed in moonlight, seemed exceptionally warm and cozy.
……
The forest was still shrouded in a light mist in the early morning. Lin Baiyan sat up listlessly on the bed, a hint of resentment flashing in his eyes. As expected, he did not see Lang Cang.
Lin Baiyan gritted his teeth and slapped the animal skin pillow next to him hard. He shouldn't have been soft-hearted and agreed to let Lang Cang stay last night!
I already told you, he had something to do this morning!
Still fooling around, still fooling around!
Lin Baiyan rubbed his lower back, feeling that he could still stand up.
Once outside, as expected, they saw the breakfast left by Lang Cang.
However, today's breakfast was unusually simple: a bowl of seaweed and egg soup, a black lump, and a piece of roasted meat, which didn't look very appetizing.
Lin Baiyan picked up the roasted meat with some confusion. What's going on? Is the dog spirit preoccupied today?
How could the meat have burned?
After he broke open the black lump, he realized it was a sweet potato. Could it be that the fire was too big today?
Lin Baiyan was full of questions, but he had something to do today, so he didn't think too much about it and quickly filled his stomach.
He rummaged through his Qiankun bag and pulled out seeds of chives and Chinese cabbage.
Planting chives, romaine lettuce, and Chinese cabbage now means they can be harvested in winter. The Chinese cabbage can be stored in a cellar for the entire winter.
Chives and romaine lettuce can survive in winter.
He searched left and right and even found cilantro seeds!
Lin Baiyan: "!!!" (?＞?＜?)
It's like a pie fell from the sky—there's even cilantro in it!
He absolutely loves cilantro!
There are 108 ways to eat cilantro, from cold salad to deep-fried cilantro, stir-fried beef with cilantro, and even cilantro in hot pot!
He carefully took out one-third of the coriander seeds to try and see if they could be planted; he couldn't let them go to waste.
He took out enough seeds, wrapped them in an animal skin bag, and then took them to the planting area.
When he arrived, Xiang Lei and several orcs had been waiting in the planting area for a long time, each carrying tools.
Seeing so many people waiting for him, Lin Baiyan coughed awkwardly, "Sorry, something came up and I'm late."
Everyone quickly shook their heads, "It's alright, it's alright. The priest is so busy every day, we didn't have to wait long."
"Yes, it'll only be a little while."
Lin Baiyan smiled somewhat awkwardly and quickly changed the subject. He took off the animal skin bag from his back and took out a cabbage seed from it. "These are seeds I brought back from the trading market. I heard from other tribes of beastmen that these plants can survive in the snow season and are very durable. Let's plant them now and harvest them when the snow season comes."
"This is Chinese cabbage, that is chives, and this is romaine lettuce."
He didn't take out the cilantro seeds because there weren't enough; he'd better plant them himself.
Thanks to his grandfather, Lin Baiyan has a basic understanding of how to cultivate these plants, and now he can give a demonstration for everyone.
Turn the soil, level the ground, dig shallow furrows, water the soil to moisten it, sow the seeds, and cover them with soil.
Although there may be slight deviations, it is roughly the same.
In the past, they would cover the soil with a thin plastic film, but due to limited resources, Lin Baiyan could only make do with this.
The Beast God has said that these seeds can survive on the Beastman Continent. If they are watered and fertilized on time, they will not grow too badly.
The beastmen probably learned from Lin Baiyan's approach, took their own seeds, and scattered to sow them.
After assigning tasks, Lin Baiyan walked to the very edge of the farmland, reclaimed a small plot of land, and watered it.
After doing all this, Lin Baiyan went into the dormitory area next to the planting area.
This dormitory area was originally a temporary residence, but as the work in the planting area increased, the houses gradually became insufficient, so they expanded and built several more to provide rest areas for everyone.
Lin Baiyan rubbed the coriander in half with his hands so that it would sprout better. After crushing it, he poured some hot water from the stove next to him to make it lukewarm and put the coriander seeds in to soak.
Because he loves cilantro, he opened a huge flowerpot on his balcony specifically to grow cilantro, so he can pick fresh cilantro whenever he wants.
Luckily, he had experience growing cilantro, otherwise these seeds wouldn't have been enough for him to squander.
