Chapter 116 Growing Mushrooms Growing Mushrooms Growing Mushrooms

"No, I just want to try it."

Although she had some top-quality strawberries in the refrigerator that she had collected before, she wanted to try the ones she had grown herself.

Helpless, Xiao Jie could only bring her a cup of warm water to rinse her mouth.

Luo Ning plans to plant mushrooms here on the strawberry side, as this is the only place with available space; all the other spots are full.

She plans to build a large greenhouse here specifically for growing mushrooms.

Although the house is linked to the system, the hot weather outside has no effect on the temperature of the terrace.

However, Luo Ning often opens the windows around the room for ventilation in the morning and evening, which inevitably makes the temperature unsuitable for mushroom growth, so he needs to adjust it himself.

She wanted it done, so Xiao Jie made it for her.

Luo Ning stood to the side, while Xiao Jie brought over a vegetable box and a sunshade net.

One vegetable box can only grow one type of mushroom, but Luo Ning wants to grow several types, but there isn't enough space, so she can only use a small vegetable box.

Xiao Jie followed her lead and assembled more than a dozen vegetable boxes, each about one square meter in size.

Luo Ning then found the collected corn cobs.

She had forgotten where she collected the corncobs from; later, when collecting supplies, she brought home everything that wasn't corroded.

Spread the corn cobs out on the ground to dry. The corn cobs need to be completely dried before soaking them in lime water for a day and a night.

It's hot now, so it should be about time to sunbathe until it's completely dark.

123 ran over, "Host, what are you doing?"

"Growing mushrooms."

Luo Ning spread out the corn cobs.

"Growing mushrooms? Can mushrooms still be grown?" 123 squatted down beside her.

"able."

Luo Ning replied helplessly, she had long since gotten used to 123 always asking such childish questions.

Everyone else's system is an encyclopedia, so why is her system so illiterate?

The kind of person whose IQ is no higher than that of a three-year-old.

"Really? Then I want to learn too."

"Go learn from your male lead; there's nothing to learn here."

Luo Ning, fearing they would cause trouble, chased them away to Xiao Jie's side.

Xiao Jie smiled but didn't refute, coaxing the number group not to cause trouble.

After the vegetable crates were assembled, a large greenhouse of more than ten square meters was built using shade netting and plastic film.

They also moved automatic sprinkler systems, temperature regulators, and hygrometers, and then moved the food boxes to the scenic area and set them up.

By the time I finished all this, it was almost completely dark.

Luo Ning poured lime water into the corn cobs to soak them, then clapped his hands.

"Okay, soak it overnight, then take it out and drain it tomorrow."

Xiao Jie cleaned up the mess on the floor. "Okay, do you still want a midnight snack?"

Luo Ning shook her head, "No need for that. I'll just grab some snacks if I get hungry later."

After making her busy for so long, I still have to make her a late-night snack.

Luo Ning's conscience would occasionally flare up and he couldn't get over it.

Xiao Jie hesitated, wanting to say that instead of her eating those spicy snacks and duck necks later, he would rather he make them for her later and leave them there.

But I didn't dare to say it out loud, always afraid that I would interfere too much and annoy her.

The outside temperature is getting higher and higher; at midday, it can reach over 50 degrees Celsius.

But Luo Ning knew that this wasn't the hottest time yet; during the hottest part of the apocalypse, it was impossible to stay outside.

The whole world is like an oven, with temperatures approaching triple digits.

If Luo Ning didn't have the cheat code 123, she would definitely go to the base.

Only the houses on the base can withstand such temperatures; under sustained high temperatures and polar days, the exterior buildings are prone to spontaneous combustion.

Luo Ning lay on the sofa by the French windows, with fruit, drinks, ice cream, and snacks like potato chips, fries, and biscuits baked by Xiao Jie himself on the small table next to her.

His legs were propped up on the armrest of the sofa, swaying back and forth.

On the interstellar network, someone posted a picture of a house spontaneously combusting.

It was an antique-style wooden building that spontaneously combusted under high temperatures after being corroded by strong acid rain.

Several other petrochemical plants that were not taken back for storage have also experienced explosions and leaks.

Luo Ning kept scrolling his fingers. Several similar incidents have occurred in China, resulting in numerous casualties.

With a helpless sigh, she reminded Old Man Fu that extreme weather in the apocalypse was far more terrifying than zombies.

However, his jurisdiction only extended to the Xuanwu Base; Elder Fu had reminded him of the other areas.

However, some leaders stubbornly insisted that their protection was sufficient.

Some are willing but unable to act, lacking manpower, and no matter how many plans they make, they cannot implement them.

This is why Elder Fu always wanted to bring Luo Ning into the base; they were desperately short of talent.

Xiao Jie opened the door and came in, his clothes soaking wet. He had just gone down to train with 123 and the others.

Seeing that it was almost time, I thought I'd go back and cook for her.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw a pair of smooth and shapely legs, dangling from the sofa armrest and swaying back and forth, making his eyes water.

Luo Ning turned her head and casually asked, "You're back?"

"Um……"

In such hot weather, she would absolutely not go out unless absolutely necessary.

So I don't understand why Xiao Jie and the Digital Group are always running around outside, especially during the hottest time of day.

Going out for a trip feels like falling into water when you come back.

Xiao Jie looked at her, forcing himself not to let his gaze be too unrestrained.

She quietly swallowed.

so white!

She's so fair-skinned!

She was wearing a light green silk camisole and lace pajama bottoms, looking fresh and cute.

Lying on the sofa, with sunlight streaming in from the balcony, she looked radiantly white.

Xiao Jie swayed for a moment, then subconsciously looked at the air conditioner.

He guessed right; she always liked to keep the air conditioning on a very low setting.

Seeing her thin pajamas, I washed my hands and found a thin blanket to take to her.

"The air conditioning is too low, cover your stomach with a blanket."

Luo Ning took the blanket; she was indeed a little cold.

But the air conditioner was too hot and she felt uncomfortable, and she was too lazy to get a blanket.

Xiao Jie's appearance was just right.

Xiao Jie pulled the blanket up for her, covering the spot where she had lost her focus.

He turned and went into the bathroom, then turned on the cold water and poured it over his head.

When he came out, Luo Ning looked at him strangely.

"Why are you taking so long to wash?"

In the past, Xiao Jie would take at most half an hour to take a bath, but today it took him almost two hours.

Although she had no shortage of water, she was hungry.

"Let's have seafood today, I'm hungry," Luo Ning said lazily.

Xiao Jie pinched the household registration booklet, stared blankly at her, and nodded, "Okay."

After saying that, she went into the kitchen, and then she lifted the blanket again, still looking alluringly white.

Three of them, number 1, 2, and 3, were watching the restaurant return, while several others rushed in in a hurry.

124 and 125 were the first to gather under the air conditioner to enjoy the breeze.

123 ran to Luo Ning's side, its body dirty and covered in dust. Luo Ning took a wet cloth and wiped it clean.

She looked towards the kitchen and asked, "Has the male lead not cooked dinner yet?"

They clearly timed their arrival perfectly, Luo Ning said, gesturing with her chin towards something on the small coffee table.

"Let's eat that first and then wait."

Perhaps because it was too hot today, he took a long cold shower when he got back.

But there's plenty of food at home, so we won't go hungry later.

Xiao Jie in the kitchen quickened his pace, looking somewhat embarrassed.
