A Sturdy Life Begins From Surviving on a Deserted Island

elder sister!

what are you doing?"

Sun Lingxing looked at his sister with a blank expression.

"and also......

elder sister!

I don't want to work!"

"Do not want to do it!"

Sun Lingyue spoke expressionlessly, and at the same time the movements of her hands did not stop at all.

Always on and on...

weed!

"elder sister!

Why are you pulling weeds?"

Sun Lingxing pouted and walked over with an unhappy expression.

Although she was very reluctant in her heart, she still started to work very obediently.

After all, her sister was a right.

"To prevent locusts!"

"Eh?"

Sun Lingxing looked at his sister with some doubts, "We pulled the grass, they would have nothing to eat, right?"

"Yes~

But that only keeps them from coming to us."

"But, it's useless~"

Sun Lingxing said with some doubts: "I feel that even if we don't pull the weeds, it will not have any impact on this locust plague."

"I don't want you to feel, I want me to feel."

Sun Lingyue said indifferently, "If there is no food here, the locusts will not come to us.

In this way, we can protect our underground base with a high probability.

So, we need to pull up the grass in this place."

"But......

Will the enemy find our home in this way?"

Sun Lingxing said with some doubts, "Also, I think many locusts are dead!

And their eggs didn't hatch.

I feel that this locust plague may not come~

I remember, isn't there a saying called the extreme drought and the locusts!

Now that there is no drought, there should be no locust plague~

Why do you have to say there will be a plague of locusts?"

"I don't want you to feel, I want locust feeling~"

Sun Lingyue glared at her sister, "It is impossible for the enemy to discover our base.

When the plague of locusts is about to break out, the enemy will not come to our position.

Also, I'll take care of the ground.

In this way, the enemy will not find the difference in our fast place~

As for the death of locusts, that is normal.

Locusts like drought and hate rainy and humid environments.

In a humid environment, they will not lay eggs and hatch.

As for the plague of locusts, it is something that will happen sooner or later, and it is impossible to delay or not happen because of the death of these locusts.

And what you said, extreme drought and locusts, is not true!

You can think about it.

Since the drought is extreme, there are locusts.

Then why didn't the plague of locusts break out during the drought in the past?"

"Uh......"

Sun Lingxing was stunned.

She felt that this question was really too unfriendly to her.

She knew there why there was no locust plague when there was a drought.

"Maybe, the drought wasn't complete enough?"

"wrong.

It's too dry!"

Sun Lingyue glared at her sister again, "In the desert, there are also locusts.

Is the desert dry enough?

But why don't the deserts have locust plagues every year?"

"Because of what?

Ecological balance?"

"Good~

It's because of the ecological balance!

The soil humidity that locusts like most is 10%-20%.

Whether it is laying eggs or hatching eggs, it is the best in this range.

However, in the desert, there is also the dry season of the grassland.

During these times, the soil humidity is very low.

In most places, the soil humidity is less than 10%.

Such a humidity is very unfavorable for locusts to lay eggs and develop.

Therefore, the plague of locusts will not happen.

Of course, in some other places in deserts and grasslands, there are still some lands with relatively high humidity.

Here, too, locusts do not multiply.

Only a small part of the land will experience locust blooms, but that doesn't get in the way.

Because the area is too small, it will be eaten by their natural enemies.

But, after this heavy rain, this is not the case~

After the heavy rain, the humidity of countless land immediately went up.

Because of the next drought, the soil humidity in many places will remain between 10% and 20%, which will allow the locusts to multiply.

There is a plague of locusts."

"Then why did the ancients say that the extreme drought causes locusts?"

"Because the place is different~"

Sun Lingyue shook her head and forced the grass in her hand to the distance, it felt like she was throwing her sister.

"The land where people lived in ancient times was mainly based on farming.

At that time, there was a lot of farmland.

What will the farmers do in the event of a major drought?"

"Watering?"

"right!

just water~

That's a bad thing~

When the water content of the land is 12% to 15%, there is a shortage of water, and the soil vegetation needs to be irrigated.

In order not to let the crops die, the only way is to water.

After watering, the water content of the soil will increase in a short time.

However, due to the severe drought, the water content of this land will decline in a short period of time.

It quickly dropped to around 20%.

This will lead to, in the severe drought, the land moisture content in the farmland is between 10%-20%.

As a result, the locusts around the farmland began to choose better places to live because they were too dry.

And farmland is such a better place.

There is not only a lot of food here, but also soil suitable for breeding.

As a result, they began to gather in farmland and began to multiply.

Thus entered a vicious circle, and finally there was a plague of locusts!

And if there is no major drought.

Then the water content of the land is generally above 20%, so that there will be no large-scale locust plague.

Therefore, many people will say, extreme drought and locusts!

But actually?

This is not necessarily, the extreme drought and the locusts will only occur in places with more farmland."

"All right......"

Sun Lingxing nodded silently, and then began to pull the weeds hard.

It's always right to listen to my sister.

"This heavy rain is about to stop..."

Sun Lingyue looked at the sky and felt that time was getting more and more urgent.

......

"This heavy rain is finally coming to an end!"

Liu Kun looked at the sky and sighed inexplicably.

"When the rain this afternoon is over, it will be sunny tomorrow.

Then, it won't take long for the grassland to enter a dry state again.

The moisture content of the soil drops rapidly and finally stabilizes at a stage suitable for locust growth.

Then, the plague of locusts will break out!"

Liu Kun shook his head, "However, that has nothing to do with me.

what?"
