Desperate Night.

Chapter 55 Hope 055
Pyroxene grass. A strange plant made from pyroxene and wild grass. The most important thing is that he seems to be able to control this thing? ? !

Yu Hong held the strengthened grass stem, thought for a moment, and looked up at the sky outside.

The red light of the setting sun at dusk shines through the gap in the door panel, dyeing a small area of ​​the door red.

He exhaled, stood up, pinched the pyroxene grass, opened the door, and walked out into the yard.

After many days of adjustment and placement, the stone yard outside has begun to take shape.

At first, it was just a big circle made of stones. Then the stones were slowly mixed with black mud and compacted to make a mixed pier.

At this time, a circle of gray piers was about ten centimeters high, enclosing an area of ​​about two hundred square meters.

This area is full of black mud covered with green grass, with a few large rocks occasionally protruding from the surface. A large tree of unknown species also grows in a corner, lush and green, casting a long, slanting shade of five or six meters in diameter.

Yu Hong looked at the sunset, squatted down, picked up a branch and stuck it into the ground to judge the approximate time.

Then he stood up and walked around the simple yard, thinking about where to plant the pyroxene grass.

Turning around, soon his eyes fell on a small sloping depression in front of the cave entrance.

There is a white stone wall on one side and a black muddy yard on the other, with not many sparse weeds.

"Here it is!" He stepped forward, pulled out all the few weeds, and found a chisel to dig out the roots as well.

Finally, dig a small hole, put the roots of the pyroxene grass in, and fill it with soil and press it down.

Finally, give it some water.

After doing all this, he stood up with satisfaction and returned to the cave safe house, waiting for the results of the planting.

Soon, it got dark outside.

The solar generator placed at the door showed on the LCD display that two bars of electricity had been accumulated.

The solar generator consists of two parts: one is the solar panel, which can be folded and unfolded, and the other is the display and main console connected by the control line, which is a small plastic box the size of a book with operating buttons and a square LCD display on which you can see the remaining power.

In addition, the solar generator also has a dedicated socket group for powering other devices.

There are more than ten sockets on the side that can be used to charge other things.

Yu Hong took out the radio, searched for a while, pulled out a half-meter-long power cord from a hidden box at the bottom of the radio, and plugged it into the solar panel.

"Finally it can be charged." He breathed a sigh of relief. He had never dared to turn on the radio often because he was afraid of running out of power. Now, the solar generator can still be used.

After making sure that there was no problem with charging, Yu Hong calculated the charging time. The radio, which had half power left, was fully charged in just over ten minutes.

The remaining power displayed on the solar panel is still one bar.

At this time, the sun had already set outside and the sky had become dark.

"It seems that it will be more useful after being strengthened, but in which direction should it be strengthened?"

Yu Hong began to think.

"Before, we simply strengthened the durability, which was not considered enough. Now that we can increase the functions and combine the functions, we have to think carefully about how to strengthen it."

Yu Hong pulled up the baffle, raised the fireplace, sat down, and turned on the radio.

Soft music floated out from the radio.

It seemed to be some kind of piano sound, long, delicate, and gentle, like a woman crying softly. From time to time, there was an accompaniment similar to the piano, crisp and pleasant.

He stared at the solar generator, thoughts running through his mind.

"First, durability is a must. Second, increasing the total battery capacity is also necessary to avoid being unable to charge in the event of continuous cloudy weather."

"Third, the conversion efficiency must also be improved. Otherwise, the speed will be too slow and may not be enough if the days get shorter."

"Fourth, the sturdiness must be strengthened, otherwise if it is accidentally damaged, I won't know where to repair it."

After these four points were worked out, Yu Hong reached out, pressed on the solar motor, and began to strengthen it.

After he silently repeated the direction of his strengthening, the black seal quickly gave feedback and the countdown officially began.

'2th, 7:15.'

"It's okay. Not long." Yu Hong nodded with satisfaction, stood up, drank some water, and continued his daily exercise.

In this boring environment, I practiced my exercises while listening to music on the radio, and I felt much better than before.

This made Yu Hong feel as if there was a little more people around him. He was no longer alone in a mountain forest with no one within a radius of several hundred meters.

As the music continued to repeat, Yu Hong gradually became immersed in practicing.

Time just passes quietly as the days repeat themselves.

The solar motor was quickly strengthened and had a brand new look and was reinforced a lot. Yu Hong laid it outside the cave, absorbing sunlight during the day and storing it inside at night.

He cleaned the house, wiped his body, and exercised every morning. At noon, he collected firewood, found water, dug vegetables, and exchanged supplies. In the afternoon, he made the talisman array and exercised. In the evening, he listened to the radio, exercised, and strengthened the talisman array.

Repeat.

In the blink of an eye, more than three weeks passed.

In the early morning, some spotted green grass had grown in the stone yard outside the cave.

These small grasses are sparsely scattered on the mud. When exposed to sunlight, the spots on their bodies reflect a faint fluorescence.

Click.

The wooden door of the cave opened, and Yu Hong walked out, fully armed with a reinforced gray lizard suit, holding a freshly cleaned pyroxene mace in his hand, and a confiscated multi-purpose knife stuck behind his back.

He walked down the stone steps, came to the edge of the pyroxene grass, and squatted down to inspect it.

As the distance got closer, the LCD display on his collar began to rapidly display red value data of the surrounding environment.

After a while of jumping, the value stabilized - '-24'.

Yu Hong exhaled, and his face in the helmet showed a trace of relaxation. He took out a thin wooden board and took out a charcoal pencil from his trouser pocket to write down the date and data on it. The number of pyroxene grass.

There are already many records densely packed on the wooden board.

Looking from top to bottom, you can see that the pyroxene grass has spread from a single strand, dispersing its seeds and growing into a field of the same kind.

In just ten to twenty days, it managed to multiply more than ten plants from one root.

And at the beginning, the impact on the red value of the surrounding environment was only in the single digits. Now it can actually reach over 20.

Yu Hong stood up, kept his distance, and continued to test the data of the red value detector on his collar.

One meter, two meters, three meters.

As the distance increases, the red value also decreases.

Finally, he stopped at the edge of the stone yard and stood still. The LCD screen on his collar also displayed a fixed data: -2.
"This is it. It seems just right. This is the limit." Yu Hong walked around in circles and determined the red value range and limit of the influence of pyroxene grass.

Back in front of the cave, he looked at the grass in the mud, stretched out his hand and pressed on the black mark, silently imagining controlling the pyroxene grass.

Soon, a wonderful sense of connection emerged in his heart.

It was as if a light spot was floating deep in his chest, a green light spot, which was the symbol of pyroxene grass.

"Should we use our internal energy to catalyze and accelerate it?" The moment my consciousness touched the light spot, the cold mechanical sound of the black seal sounded quietly in my ears.

Yu Hong's face straightened up. This was exactly the function he was going to test. He had let it grow naturally before just to record the before and after for comparison. After all, if you don't know what the normal growth rate is, you can't compare how much the internal energy can increase the growth rate.

He calmed his mind and recited silently.

'Yes. '

All of a sudden, one of the internal energies in his body began to stir, as if wanting to move upwards, towards the light spot represented by the pyroxene grass.

Yu Hong thought about it, and used his mind to control this internal energy, mobilizing it and moving it quickly upwards.

After a while, the internal energy and the light spots of pyroxene grass collided with each other.

laugh.

There seemed to be a slight sound in my ears.

The internal energy disappeared in the blink of an eye, as if it was completely swallowed up by the light spot of the pyroxene grass.

At the same time, the light spots representing pyroxene grass suddenly became brighter, at least half brighter than before.

Then, it seemed to remain in this state, brighter than before, as if it was burning, consuming the internal energy it had absorbed.

Yu Hong observed for more than ten minutes and made sure there were no other problems. Then he came to his senses and checked a small patch of pyroxene grass on the ground.

But no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see any changes from before.

After observing without any results, he had no choice but to put it behind him and continue with his daily routine.

The day passed slowly, and the night became deep and quiet, gradually covering the sky.

Inside the cave.

Yu Hong quietly adjusted the firewood in the fireplace and used a wooden stick to push away the excess ash in the fire to prevent oxygen from entering and preventing it from burning fully.

The firelight shone on his face, leaving out the dense beads of sweat and oil stains on his forehead.

Long-term physical labor and exercise have made his muscles more and more obvious, and his body shape has become more and more symmetrical with exercise.

The rustling sound of reptiles gradually came from outside the door.

Soon, swarms of black insects poured in from the cracks in the door and the air vents like flowing water.

Before the black insects landed on the ground, they quickly evaporated under the fire of the fireplace and turned into black smoke.

Yu Hong stood up and watched the scene quietly.

Before, he would be frightened by the black bugs in the blood tide, but now, he has already adapted to it.

Time passed little by little, and soon it was only about half an hour.

The black bugs actually began to move intermittently, no longer as continuously as usual, and they poured in faster and faster.

Yu Hong's expression changed slightly. He took out a spare candle from the corner, lit it, held it in his hand, and slowly approached the door.

Swish.

He used a wooden stick to pull open the glass window on one side of the gate.

Illuminate the outside with candlelight through the high-strength glass.

Suddenly, a small circle of black bugs outside turned into black smoke and disappeared, leaving a safe area.

At the same time, the candle flame also shrank a lot, as if it was suppressed, and burned much faster.

Yu Hong ignored these common changes and looked outside in the candlelight.

This sight brought a hint of surprise to his face.

Outside the cave, in the stone yard, in the dark night, the pyroxene grasses were emitting a soft, faint white light.

The pyroxene grass is glowing??!

Yu Hong blinked and looked again carefully.

It was definitely correct. The pyroxene grass was indeed glowing, and the white light was exactly the same as the red value he had tested during the day, covering the entire stone courtyard.

Yu Hong could see clearly by candlelight.

The black bugs rushed towards the cave under the faint white light of the pyroxene grass, but only a small part of them came. The majority seemed to hate this white light and dispersed into the darkness in the distance, like a river diverted by reefs.
