Chapter 38
Chapter 38
The young man's voice was full of panic and despair, as if the sky was falling, and the young man in the last days still had a smiling face, heartless.But now the young people showed such a helpless look, Chen Rui felt distressed, and cursed Mao Qiu a few times in his heart.
Chen Rui held Zhou weekend's hand and said soothingly: "Don't worry, you forgot how vigilant Fuqiu is. That little thing is excited. Maybe he found something delicious there, and he will come back after stealing it."
Hearing the president's words relieved me a lot on the weekend, but he still said worriedly: "Brother Chen, I'm still worried, let's find the fur ball first, and after we get it back, we'll go to the free market, okay? "
Chen Rui naturally understood that if the young man couldn't find the fur ball, he would definitely not feel at ease. He nodded and said, "Okay, let's go find the fur ball first, and then go after we get the fur ball back."
With the support of the president, the two went out again. As soon as they reached the door of the building, they saw Wu Lingling and Nan Nan looking over here.Seeing the weekend coming out, Wu Lingling said with joy, "I finally found you on the weekend. I seemed to watch you enter this house yesterday, but all of a sudden it turned into a rocky place." For a moment she was a little uncertain Yes, after hesitating for a long time, I just saw it coming out on the weekend.
"Sister Wu, you have something to do with me," she said after seeing Wu Lingling on the weekend. Although she was very worried about hairballs, she would not lose her mind by the end of the week.
Wu Lingling looked at the expression on the weekend just now, and knew that the weekend seemed to be urgent, she said without talking nonsense: "There is nothing important, but you lent me fifty corpse crystals yesterday, and Sun Yi came back last night. I told him that he came back a little late last night, and I thought about paying you back today."
After Wu Lingling finished talking to Weekend, she immediately handed over the bag containing the corpse crystal in her satchel to Weekend, and then said: "Then I won't bother you, I went to inquire about the kitchen after yesterday, there is still need I will take Nan Nan there first."
After listening to it on the weekend, he nodded and said: "Okay, I won't keep you any longer, you go to work, Brother Chen and I still have some urgent matters to do."
Wu Lingling quickly took her daughter and left, and they rented a 150-square-meter house, and she was the first to take the lead.An hour after she rented the house, [-] corpse crystals could no longer rent a room of [-] square meters, and could only rent a small room of [-] square meters.
Because there is only one room, the house is separated by a cloth curtain, and a bed is placed while cooking. Li Han, a big man, naturally cannot live with a woman like her, so he moved to the dormitory provided by the work shed. so it won't be so crowded.
And although the place is still a little closer, the place where they live is only 200 meters away from the dormitory at most, but Wu Lingling doesn't have to worry about her husband needing to face Li Han all the time, and she can take care of the family a little bit if she is too busy. Give it to Li Han to have a look.
Li Han's task is a bit heavy now. There are more and more people in the base. The rainwater has been evaporated rapidly by the high temperature in the past two days. The river has almost stopped flowing. The water shortage in the base is severe. Water storage, although the wages are not much, but the key is to get a few rations.
Food is hard to come by at the base now, and water can be exchanged for corpse crystals, but now there is absolutely no one who would foolishly exchange food for people, and usually use corpse crystals for daily necessities.You must know that after the end of the world, the crops will basically die out, and the mutated plants are basically all poisonous. Once eaten, even a little bit will be poisoned and died. As long as you are not hungry and have no choice, you will definitely not want to commit suicide to eat those mutated plants.
Without waiting for Wu Lingling to go far away, she immediately dragged Chen Rui towards the mutated jujube tree on the weekend, shouting fur balls while running, with panic and anxiety in her voice.
The two soon returned to the mutated jujube tree. At this time, there were still three people guarding the jujube tree. When they left with Chen Rui on the weekend, they had already helped plant the mutated jujube tree back.At that time, I touched it a few times on the weekend, and I obviously felt the joy of the mutated jujube tree. It felt amazing on the weekend, but I didn't think much about it.
Zhang Chi saw that Zhou Zhou and Chen Rui came back again, and immediately smiled and said: "Uh, didn't you go back? Why did you come back again, let me tell you, don't even think about the mutated green jujube here, you must have already I ate it, and took one away by the way. So many of my brothers have problems with their abilities, and I still don’t want to eat it. Now I take out five, cut them up and share them..."
Weekend pushed Zhang Chi away, looked around and shouted, and searched everywhere, worried that Maoqiu was a little angry and hid. After thinking about it carefully on Weekend, it happened in the previous life.
At that time, he made the fur ball anxious, and the fur ball ran away. At that time, he didn't think that the fur ball would disappear. When the fur ball didn't appear for a long time, he didn't find the fur ball hiding in the original place until the next weekend. The ball, the little guy who is obviously white, even if he hides in the mud, he can't see it.
In today's situation, I thought about it carefully again on the weekend, and suddenly felt that Maoqiu was probably really angry, and maybe he just hid there and ignored him.Although Maoqiu has become much smarter after the end of the world and can understand many things, but in the morning he scolded Maoqiu for no reason, and Maoqiu's IQ is still a bit low, so I can't understand it, and Maoqiu who is sulking alone will definitely go made.
Seeing that Zhang Chi and the people around him were going to stop the weekend, Chen Rui said, "Don't stop him, the pet he raised is gone, and they were enjoying the shade by the mutated jujube tree at that time, maybe that little thing Just hid nearby.
One after another, Weekend was about to cry. In this world, apart from the friend the president, Fuqiu has only one family member on Weekend. Although Maoqiu is a pig, after three years of companionship in his previous life, there is no one or anyone for Weekend. Things can be more important than hairballs.
As time passed, Chen Rui squinted his eyes and felt the ground quietly. As long as the fur ball appeared within 500 meters around him, he could immediately sense it.
Zhang Cheng and the two teammates around him, listening to the voice of the weekend, became anxious for the weekend. If it weren't for this young man and that pet, they would not have had the chance to find a way to get rid of the irritability of the ability. Although there are not many mutant dates, but Anyway, it is a research direction, as long as there is a direction and a goal, then success is not far away.
The young team members around Zhang Cheng couldn't bear it and said: "Captain, can you help me find it? Seeing that little brother is about to cry."
"No, we have a mission to stay here, or you can help out here." Zhang Cheng said with some embarrassment.In fact, he also wanted to help. Looking at the young man who was about to cry, it is the end of the world and he still has such a pet. Presumably pets must have extraordinary meaning to the young man, otherwise he would have been slaughtered and put into the pot, how could it be possible? keep it.But this mission is very important, and he will not be able to help the young man until after Yu Meng reports to the general and makes a decision to send someone to take over.
Chen Rui glanced at Zhang Chi who seemed to be helping, shook his head and said, "You don't need your help, just keep an eye on this tree. We will go forward on the weekend. There are still many trees over there. That little thing might get there side hiding."
He has already checked thousands of square meters, and there is no sign of the fur ball. It seems that the fur ball was provoked this time and really ran away to hide.
It was only at this time on the weekend that he remembered the ability of the president, so he didn't talk nonsense, and obediently followed the president and walked forward. The trees and vegetation over there had not been cleared, and they were covered with various vines and weeds, and the trees were also lush.Searching and shouting at the weekend, the two walked farther and farther, and gradually left the community.There is already another construction site here, but the construction has not yet started. Apart from the piles of various construction materials, there are vines and weeds everywhere.
Chen Rui suddenly felt something flashing in the distance, the speed was very fast and it felt very flexible, and it was about the size of a hairball. "Maoqiu, come back quickly, your master is very worried about you..." Chen Rui shouted suddenly, then picked up the weekend next to him, and ran towards the direction where the thing disappeared.
On the uneven weeds, Chen Rui had already noticed that the fur ball was running in one direction, as if he refused to go home yesterday and had to take the weekend to find the mutated jujube tree.Chen Rui pointed in that direction, and soon saw Maoqiu's exclusive white hair, flickering in the grass, although Maoqiu was still running forward, no matter how much he shouted on the weekend, he would not stop Down, but finding the furball already made the weekend fun.
Five or six minutes later, Maoqiu has brought Zhou weekend and Chen Rui into a very secluded place. There is a low hut in front of it, which has been almost wrapped by mutated trees and vines. If there is no gap in the window , I can’t tell that there is still a house here on weekends.
"What's going on." Weekend asked after being suddenly pulled back by Chen Rui.
Chen Rui lowered his voice and said: "Don't worry, your hairball is confronting a mutated insect. It looks like a mutant locust. This thing is also as big as a hairball. Now the hairball is confronting it. , let's not disturb it for now, let's see how it solves it. I think this little thing may not be as weak as you imagined. The hairball may be quite strong. Anyway, it is also mutated. Maybe it is not only a good brain, but also a claw. It worked, but it never showed up around us."
After hearing the president's words on the weekend, he immediately expressed his understanding, but his expression was still full of worry. Chen Rui held the young man's hand and said, "Don't worry, with me, the hairball won't be hurt. Come and see us." After walking forward, you will be able to observe the furball and the mutant beast that is confronting it, and see how the furball will deal with this mutant beast."
The two cautiously approached a few steps, and suddenly saw a furry white beast four or five meters in front of them, baring its teeth at a mutated locust with its teeth and claws, and making threatening calls. The sound was never heard on a furball over the weekend.And the locust didn't give in too much, its sharp teeth and slender forelimbs confronted the hairball with teeth and claws.
If the locust was kicked down before the end of the world, the locust could fly away, but now the locust has mutated, it is as big as the fur ball, or even bigger, and it also makes a sharp chirp sound from its mouth, which looks quite scary .
Seeing that the young man was about to speak out in worry, Chen Rui held the young man's hand and shook his head implyingly, and lowered his voice very low, sticking to the young man's ear openly and said: "Don't disturb them, fur balls are not timid, respond to your courage." It should be strength, it must have the ability to dare to confront this locust."
Chen Rui was actually right. At the beginning, Fuqiu was angry and came here to hang out, but he didn't expect to smell the delicious fruit scent. Before he got closer to check, he was discovered by mutant locusts. After a long confrontation, Maoqiu hurried It doesn't take advantage of the wind, and waits for the stupid master to wait but can't wait, and finally the fur ball is ready to go back to find the master.Then I met Chen Rui. When the owner and Chen Rui appeared, Maoqiu suddenly gained a lot of courage. With the master in charge, Maoqiu dared to do it.
Not long after Chen Rui's words fell, the fur ball suddenly moved, its speed was extremely fast, like lightning.Before the mutated locust had time to fight back and resist, it was bumped by the fur ball until its belly was thrown off the ground.Then it was time for the fur ball show. I saw the fur ball again and again, and the speed was extremely fast. People who watched it were dazzled.
Over the weekend, I saw that poor mutated locust kept throwing up and down, and there was a small white ball under it flashing from time to time, like a ball of fur dancing.
After repeating dozens of times, the hair ball retreated to the side and the mutated locust landed on the ground. The dazed locust didn't react at all, and its only weakness was exposed to the naked eye.The fur ball jumped high, and then fell down. The soft stomach of the mutated locust couldn't withstand the damage of the fur ball at all. Immediately, the poop and intestines were squeezed out, and the mutated locust let out a sharp scream.
The hairball jumped to the side when the mutated locust was struggling frantically before it died. Its small paw made gestures on the mutated locust's forehead a few times, and found that it had no ability to cut open the mutated locust's brain, so it didn't bother to dig out the crystal nucleus. The thing is, anyway, there is a master, and the master who is obsessed with money will not forget this benefit.
Turning around, the fur ball immediately ran in front of a mutated grass. This mutated grass was about 30 centimeters high, with very large leaves, the size of an adult's palm, covered with countless sharp thorns three to four centimeters long. The fur ball squatted beside the mutated grass There is nowhere to go up and down, and there is no way to turn around in the end. It has no way to avoid such a long thorn. It seems that it can only rely on the owner.
On weekends, I dug out the mutated locust crystal nucleus with fine sand, and saw the fur ball squatting in front of a mutated grass of about half an square meter. As soon as I saw those sharp thorns, I knew on weekends that the fur ball had nowhere to bite, and so on. Let him help.Turning his head, Zhou Zhou seemed to see something out of the corner of his eye. When he took a closer look, Zhou Zhou was shocked. Good things, really good things, even better than the mutant fruit, were actually met by the hairball blind cat Dead rat.
Chen Rui approached Maoqiu, lowered his head and frowned, and glanced at the mutated grass under his feet. He could already smell the sweetness of strawberries when he approached, but this mutated grass only had thorns and two flowers besides the leaves. To put it bluntly, Chen Rui didn't find that the strawberry grew there, could it be that it grew underground? If it wasn't wrapped in a shell, who would dare to eat it.
Looking left and right, he couldn't find strawberries. Chen Rui turned his head and saw that Zhou Zhen was staying next to a mutated vine, and he didn't know what he found.
Chen Rui walked towards the weekend and said, "What's the matter? On the weekend, Maoqiu seems to have found a mutated strawberry, but it may not be fruitful yet, but I saw two small white flowers."
"Mutated strawberry, you smell the fragrance. Let's not worry about the mutated strawberry. This is a mutated grape. It must be. I won't admit it. Furball Furball is here. The owner has found something delicious for you. Hurry up!" Come here, what's so delicious about strawberries, grapes are delicious, they're so juicy and delicious..." Weekend shouted at the hairball squatting in front of the mutated strawberry, throwing all the words that describe food Move out and shout again.
Mutated Grape did not remember wrongly. Chen Rui accurately grasped the loophole in Zhou Zhou's words. They hadn't seen Mutated Grape since the end of the world. How could Zhou Zhou recognize it?I haven't made a mistake yet, what is wrong, could it be that I have already seen the mutated grapes on the weekend.But he never took out grapes to eat on weekends. Could it be that something happened to the young man that he didn't know about? Chen Rui's eyes narrowed.
Although aware of the strangeness, Chen Rui still buried these deeply in his heart, as long as he didn't tell him on the weekend, Chen Rui would not go to the bottom of it.He wanted to understand the young man, but he didn't want to cause trouble for the young man. Since the young man didn't want to tell him, Chen Rui pretended he didn't find out about it.
Weekend probably also found that he was too excited just now, as if he said something that shouldn't be said, so he immediately shut up and said after a while: "Brother Chen, look, although the vine looks a bit strange, the vine has also become It's green, but the leaves, its leaves are exactly the same as the grapes, except that the leaves are much bigger than the original ones."
Chen Rui carefully observed the leaves of the plant in front of him and then nodded: "It's a bit similar, but the grapes are there," Chen Rui said curiously. , but rather its range.The two-meter-high house in front is surrounded by it. If you don’t get close, you can’t find that there is another house there. This mutant grape, let’s say it is a grape, at least occupies at least five feet behind the mutant strawberry. Sixty square meters.
The cyan vines are tangled and twisted, and the large leaves almost cover the entire location of the vines. Its root system even penetrates into any mutant tree that can be approached nearby. Dying.
Weekend has heard of mutated grapes in his previous life. How could he have eaten and seen the bottom of the base like him, which is surrounded and guarded by the top layers of the base.However, a lot of information has been revealed. The mutated grape vines are blue in color, and the leaves are the same as those before the end of the world, but many times larger than before the end of the world.For all the supernatural beings in the base in the previous life, the goal of everyone's efforts was to earn enough crystal cores to buy a mutated grape to get rid of the restlessness of supernatural powers in the body.
But he hadn’t seen what the mutated grapes looked like on weekends. It was said that they were all auctioned. It is the safest, even though the base already had a potion that replaced the function of the mutated fruit at that time, but that potion was just a substitute, and its effect was very different from the real mutated fruit.
Unable to find it with the naked eye, Chen Rui finally began to use fine sand to extend his sense of touch as he watched weekends wandering around because he couldn't find grapes. Countless fine sand particles filled the space in front of Chen Rui's eyes, and soon Chen Rui was amazed no.The mutated watermelon simply grows underground, the mutated jujube grows like leaves, and you can’t recognize it without touching it, and the mutated grapes are even more extreme, their fruits are actually invisible, and they all grow on vines at a height of [-] meters , as if to prevent humans from picking it up, the evolution of mutated plants after the end of the world is really miraculous.
Chen Rui observed the mutated strawberries again. Finally, under the inspection of fine sand, Chen Rui was amused. Those strawberries did not bear fruit, but fruited, but the fruit was wrapped by leaves and hidden under the shadow of the big leaves. With such thin, long and numerous dense spikes, no one would think of touching the leaves with their hands to check, and no one can imagine that these mutated fruits can change so smartly.
Chen Rui sighed that perhaps it was because before the end of the world, these fruit trees had too deep memories of being picked by humans, so they evolved ways to deceive humans and avoid being picked by humans.
Using a stone blade to cut off a mutated grape, the originally transparent grape was finally revealed, and it was just as big as Zhou weekend said.Before the end of the world, the grapes were in bunches, but now these mutated grapes are one by one, each about the size of an egg, wrapped in a thick wooden skin.
Chen Rui used a stone blade to carve out the outer hard shell. The shell looks hard but not thick, about twice as thick as an egg shell. The two of them felt refreshed after taking a sniff.
And the hairball that had been squatting next to the mutated strawberry, now ran over like crazy, screaming, jumping up and down, trying to eat the mutated grape in Chen Rui's hand, it was so delicious, the hairball was powerless at all resistance.
Of course, it’s not just the hairball that can’t resist, even the weekend is full of saliva that is tempted by the fruity aroma. On the weekend, I picked up the mutant grape in Chen Rui’s hand, and as soon as the hairball squatted down, I couldn’t wait to gnaw off the shell. Yes, it's delicious, it's delicious...
Seeing how delicious the hairball was eating on the weekend, he knew that the mutated grape must not be poisonous, so he turned his head and said to Chen Rui: "Brother Chen, let's pick all the mutated grapes. What about this tree? It's a pity, and we can't disclose the news over and over again, otherwise people will definitely be suspicious."
Chen Rui nodded and frowned and said: "Don't worry, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. Let's pick the mutated grapes first and put them in the storage space, and then we'll get some back for cuttings like cuttings of mutated jujube trees. There's no rush here. Some of them are in the construction area. There are few people here. Although there are people patrolling the periphery, they are not here yet. We may still be able to pick a round after some earth-type supernatural beings come to work here. Just find a way to reveal it, such a large mutant vine cannot be eradicated so easily."
There is nothing wrong with Chen Rui's words, and he didn't think about the future on the weekend, and first reaped the fruits of these fruits.
Thinking of the deliciousness of the mutated grapes, Chen Rui picked a few more, and did not start to harvest these invisible fruits until his stomach could no longer fill them.In the end, with such a large range of mutated vines, a total of more than 200 grapes were harvested, all of which were stored in the weekend space, because the jade pendant space in Chen Rui's hands might be lost.
Over the weekend, he washed his hands and face with condensed supernatural water, and even stained his clothes with grape juice. Naturally, he didn't forget to help the president wash off the sweet smell, until the hairball was finally full.Chen Rui had already cut off six mutated vines, and then picked all the fruits of that mutated strawberry.Cut open the leaves that wrap the mutated strawberry, revealing the bright red flesh, which is extremely attractive to look at.
It's just that the few of them were full, so they were kept in the weekend income space, and a small plant was taken down, and they were ready to take it home and plant it.Chen Rui packed the small mutated strawberry plants and grape vines into stone balls, and prepared to take them home and plant them immediately.
The mutated water cleaned the sweet juice from the fur balls. He carried the fur balls and followed the president towards the house on weekends. While walking, he turned his head and said to Chen Rui: "Brother Chen, let's take these back and plant them, and then we will go to the house to grow them." In the free market, we don’t have many corpse crystals in our hands, and now we have a house, should we go out to hunt corpse crystals, or we won’t be able to buy things.”
Chen Rui glanced at the young man, nodded and said, "Okay, after visiting the free market, we can go out of the base to hunt zombies in Ningxiang County in the afternoon."
On the weekend, I retrieved the fur balls and found the mutated strawberries, especially the mutated grapes. My mood is soaring now. Even the high temperature of [-] degrees can't stop my happy mood on the weekend.
The stone ball quickly followed Chen Rui's feet with the mutated vines and small strawberry plants, but it traveled underground, not the ground. Even people with earth-type abilities couldn't find it a few meters below the ground. There is actually a stone ball like this.
When they passed through the mutated jujube tree on the weekend, the general had already made a decision. Yu Meng had already brought a team of more than 100 people into the nearby villas. occupied.The mutated jujube is right in front of the villa, as long as the military arranges personnel to be on duty here, it will be extremely difficult to steal the fruit, unless one has Chen Rui's ability.
Weekend and Chen Rui were stopped by a soldier, and Zhang Chi, who still hadn't left, said a few words to the soldier, and then weekend and Chen Rui were let go.
"Chen Rui, your brother has found his pet," Zhang Chi said with a smile. His supernatural powers were violent, and his wounded comrades had already eaten the mutated jujube. It has improved a lot, and it is exactly as Chen Rui said. Now Zhang Chi is still very grateful to the two brothers Chen Rui and Zhou Zhou. The general also ordered to take care of these two brothers in the base. Even though there are really few mutant green dates, But with direction and hope, they are much more motivated.
Chen Rui nodded and said: "Yes, I found it in the wasteland over there. It was scolded by the weekend when it ate the mutated green dates, but it got angry and ran away from home. It took a long time before it was willing to come back. Now Even pets have become smarter in this world.”
Chen Rui's words raised Zhang Chi's vigilance immediately. They also encountered a lot of mutated animals, but most of them were much larger in size but not very intelligent. They had a lot of military personnel and guns. not difficult.But according to Chen Rui's words, if the mutated animals become smarter, it will be difficult to kill them again.
When Zhang Chi suddenly looked at the fur ball in Zhou Zhou's arms, Zhou Zhou immediately hugged the fur ball tightly and said, "What are you looking at? Don't look at my fur ball. It's very fast, and it's vegetarian and doesn't eat meat. It doesn't even have claws, let alone sharp teeth, so it won't hurt people at all."
Zhang Chi smiled awkwardly when he heard the words of the weekend: "That's not what I mean, I mean is it really smart?"
As soon as Zhang Chi talked about fur balls, Weekend immediately gushed: "Of course, my fur balls have become smarter since a large number of crops withered. Go to the designated place to pull it. Before the end of the world, it wasn’t so smart, and it didn’t respond when I called it. Now it will follow me wherever I go, and even if I lose it, it will know how to find it. Before, guinea pigs were definitely not so smart..."
Zhang Chi nodded after hearing this and said: "Thank you for telling me this on the weekend. The zombies have not been solved yet, and the mutant beasts have become smarter. God still leaves us a way to survive. Okay, you go back first, and you can't just walk around here. Now, please pay attention, don't keep running here, you will be misunderstood."
As soon as he got home, the stone ball immediately came out of the ground. The vines and strawberry plants of the mutated grapes in the cracked stone ball were all in good condition. Chen Rui didn't do anything, but redesigned the messy guest bedroom that he had made over the weekend.A range of mutated jujubes, a site of mutated watermelons, and the remaining two sites are used for cutting mutated grapes and planting mutated strawberries on weekends.
"We have to buy a few mirrors and fix them on the wall on the weekend, so that the sunlight can be reflected into the entire guest bedroom," Chen Rui said looking at the busy weekend.
Hearing what the president said on the weekend, he stopped his hands and said, "Well, Brother Chen, you are right. When we go out to kill zombies, we should go to the mall to have a look. There must be no shortage of big mirrors over there. A few come back." After pouring root water on the mutated strawberries and mutated grapes from cuttings, he kicked the fur ball into his pocket on weekends, and took the president to the free market together. There were too many things missing at home, and more things needed to be bought. Now If you don't prepare, it won't be easy to get it when the weather gets cold.
