Abnormal survival in the end times

Chapter 190: Inducing Birth and Preserving Seeds
"What the hell?"

At a quick glance, it seemed to have a large furry tail, which was grayish white in color.

"Don't slow down, keep moving forward."

Jiang Minglang gave orders in a deep voice, and Qiao Fei in the car behind was also giving the same instructions. The driver was a soldier under his command, nicknamed Sanpao.

The reason I stepped on the brakes just now was not because I found something hanging on the rear of the car, but because there seemed to be a net suddenly on the windshield in front of the car. I stepped on the brakes in a hurry, but found something wrong the moment I stepped on it, so I released the brakes and stepped on the accelerator, while turning the steering wheel sharply at the same time.

Sure enough, there was something behind him that was thrown away by him.

"Did you see clearly? What is it?"

Qiao Fei sat in the co-pilot seat. Like Sanpao, he focused mainly on the front and the sides, and only saw a blurry image through the rearview mirror.

Ma Lean, who was sitting in the back seat, saw it clearly. "I think it should be a squirrel."

This thing was harmless before the end of the world, but who knows what it will become after the end of the world.

"Follow Captain Jiang's car, Le'an, rinse the front windshield with water."

Just now, Qiao Fei also saw the web that flashed by, and he wondered if there was a spider hiding under the front of the car?
Damn it, when the end of the world comes, even the bugs that can be crushed to death with one finger can become spirits.

With a splash, a stream of clear water flowed down from the front, and with a wipe of the wiper, the front windshield became clear again.

"Captain, there is something on the ground."

When the water hit the front windshield, it naturally hit the front of the car as well. Then, behind the car, a black object as big as a saucer fell in the middle of the highway.

Qiao Fei really guessed it right, it was a spider.

"Sanpao, be careful. If there is one, there might be a second one."

First it was the squirrel, then the spider, but now the feeling of being watched is still there, which means that there is still something in the dark watching them, and there is a high possibility that there is more than one.

Not long after Qiao Fei finished saying this, two daggers suddenly rushed out from above Jiang Minglang and his group's car in front, followed by a blood mist that exploded.

The two cars still did not slow down, so their cars almost instantly hit the body parts falling from the blood mist.

Ma Le'an immediately put his fingers to the slightly opened window, and the water rushed through, and the windshield became clear again.

I just couldn't see clearly what animal the fallen limbs belonged to.

It doesn’t matter. Who cares? I’ll kill anyone who dares to block my way.

After that unknown object exploded, the smell of blood filled the highway, attracting countless peeping figures on both sides who were ready to make a move.

A war seems to be about to break out.

In the white fruit garden, Bai Li was still called by Professor Leng to do experiments every day.

It's not that she has a strong learning ability or talent and I want to teach her something, I just want to prepare some more high-quality seeds and ask her to induce growth.

Therefore, Bai Li only sees herself as a tool for giving birth.

Gao Junyu was there too, but because his ability was not as high as Bai Li's, the quality of what he produced was naturally worse.

But this difference is only relative. It is certainly better than ordinary seeds.

In view of the unclear current land situation, Professor Leng wants to try using seeds produced by supernatural powers instead of ordinary seeds. Will the resulting crops taste better and have higher productivity?

The birth of superpowers is faster and better, but the disadvantage is that the quantity is small.

For example, for the white lychee trees, she could only make them bear fruit one by one. The same goes for wheat and rice.

In other words, no matter how high her supernatural power is, it is impossible for her to produce an acre of land at once.

Not to mention one acre, even one cent is enough.

Or Professor Leng would just ask her to help stimulate the growth of each plant and then save the seeds.

Gao Junyu did the same, promoting the growth of each tree one by one and saving the seeds after they matured.

This job is not difficult and is simple.

Wheat, rice, corn, sweet potatoes. Professor Leng asked the two to grow enough of anything edible, so that they could distribute them to the villagers to plant in the fields, and also keep enough for emergencies.

For example, give it to Li Nan and the neighbor next door.

The enthusiastic neighbor Ning An also gave Professor Leng a few pots of white peonies, but the next day Lei Jia took her own cactus and went to exchange a few pots for him.

The two also discussed each other's abilities in depth. Lei Jia tried to stimulate the peony buds in Ning An's hand to bloom, and finally a white thorn flower of unknown origin bloomed. It had petals, but the petals were covered with thorns.

Ning An also tried to stimulate the growth of the tender cactus in Lei Jia's hand. In the end, the cactus did not grow up, but a strange white and pink flower bloomed on the top.

Just...very confusing.

I don’t know what’s going on.

However, Ning An, this unfortunate child, still doesn't know that his white peony has insecticidal effects.

Lei Jia became his close friend, but he didn't tell him.

How can outsiders tell the secrets of plants that people have grown themselves?
That's so shameless.

The morning labor-inducing work was finished. When Bai Li stood up to leave, her eyelids suddenly twitched and she couldn't help but look up to the south.

"Uncle Leng, is your left eye jumping out for fortune or disaster?"

Professor Leng turned his head and glanced at her, sneering, "You are so superstitious at such a young age? Jumping for wealth."

But after a pause, he continued, "It's the end of the world, you just jump for money, can you really get rich?"

Bai Li narrowed her eyes and looked into the distance, saying, "You are wrong. It should be a disaster. Nothing is going to happen, right?"

The weather was about to warm up, and even the water in Pingjiang had thawed.

Once the temperature rises, animals that were previously forced to retreat by the cold or need to hibernate may have to go out of their homes and show their claws.

However, because Qiao Fei had brought back a lot of people before, they had been doing a good job of protecting and patrolling inside and outside the company.

This patrol is not only around Yunxi Village, but also east to the city wall, and there must be at least two patrols a day.

Heading west to the city, they and Ning'an Musong sent out teams to patrol once in the morning and once in the afternoon.

Any anomalies encountered during the period can basically be solved smoothly, and those that cannot be solved will be returned for discussion immediately.

The abnormalities mentioned here basically refer to some aggressive mutated animals.

So far, their eastern half of the city is relatively safe, and there have been basically no unexpected casualties.

Even when the villagers went out to collect firewood, they did so in groups. After all, those who were able to survive today were still quite vigilant.

In this situation, Bai Li couldn't imagine what disaster was about to happen.

Could it be the people that Li Nan and Wei Lichuan had just recruited? Logically, it wouldn't be the case. They finally had a stable place to stay, and they could earn food through labor, and they could also form a team to go to Pingcheng to pick up bargains. Although they might encounter zombies, danger and supplies coexisted. If they wanted good things, they had to pay a price, right?
So, it shouldn’t be those people.

Bai Li's eyelids were still twitching as she walked out from Professor Leng's laboratory.

It was not until she met Du Qiuyan and Leng Hanyu walking side by side outside that her eyelids felt better and stopped twitching.

"It's almost time for dinner, where are you going?"

Du Qiuyan felt very strange when he saw her walking out in the middle of the day. Recently, Professor Leng had been pressuring her to produce seeds. Although her supernatural powers would not be exhausted, they would still consume about 60% to 70% each time.

So usually after lunch, Bai Li has to sleep for an hour or two to recover his supernatural powers.

As a result, she hardly ever leaves the village recently.

Bai Li raised her hand and rubbed her left eyelid, saying, "My left eyelid was twitching just now. I was worried that something might happen, so I wanted to go outside for a walk."

Du Qiyan:
He was speechless and asked, "Why do you still believe this?"

"What else? Can you explain to me why my eyelids are twitching?"

That's really hard to explain.

Leng Hanyu asked in confusion, "Doesn't the twitching of the left eye mean wealth?"

Bai Li was silent for a moment, then said, "There is no chance of getting rich now, so we can only jump into disaster. Hey? Old Du, could it be that Jiang Minglang and the others encountered something on the road?"

It took them more than a month to clean up Pingcheng, so how much better could the cities further south be?

As a professional, Du Qiyan analyzed the situation for her, "Whether it's zombies or mutant animals, encountering them is inevitable. But with Lao Jiang and Qiao Fei here, plus they are all top-notch psychics, even if they can't escape for a while, their lives won't be in danger. So don't worry, they'll be fine."

Bai Li thought about it, but...
She asked Du Qiyan, "When Pingcheng was almost cleared out by them, why didn't any zombies run to the neighboring Kangzhou?"

She could understand why the mutant animals didn't come here. After all, the tiger king was there. In its territory, many animals would probably not dare to act rashly.

But zombies are creatures without any intelligence. After the ice melts, won’t they smell the human scent and come to Pingcheng?
After all, although Pingcheng is not inhabited by people, there are still people coming and going every day.

Is it because of the distance?

"It should be. There are a lot of paddy fields between Kangzhou and Pingcheng. The distance is so far that unless there are a large number of people living in Pingcheng, it will be difficult to attract zombies from more than a hundred kilometers away."

Du Qiyan saw that she seemed to have some ideas, and asked, "Do you want Wei Lichuan to send people to clean up Kangzhou?"

"Is that okay? This way, when Jiang Minglang and the others come back from Ningcheng, the journey will be easier."

If they can find the weapons depot and pull it back, there will definitely be a lot of noise. With less resistance here, it will be easier for them to come back.

Du Qiuyan knew Wei Lichuan's next plan to clean up Kangzhou, which was to wait for the old leader to take office and then execute it.

But Bai Li doesn't care about Wei Lichuan and Kyoto's little tricks. She just wants her husband to come back safely.

"Go ask him, if he doesn't want to."

Bai Li narrowed her eyes and said, "Then let's send a few people to investigate. I will take Feng Bao with us."

Du Qiyan asked one more question, "If he asks us to wait, will he still give them seeds and fruits in exchange in the future?"

"What do you say?"

This was really a unnecessary question. Du Qiuyan suppressed the upturned corners of his mouth and thought to himself, you already have a backup plan, how dare he not agree?

What's more, when I heard that Bai Li was also going, I dared not refuse.

When Du Qiuyan told Wei Lichuan what Bai Li had said, he really didn't dare to say no.

If he doesn't send anyone, I'll go to Connecticut. If something really happens, Captain Jiang will come back and skin him alive.

What's more, he had already thought of exploring Connecticut. At first, he wanted to wait for his old leader to come to Pengcheng before taking action, but now time waits for no one. He couldn't let Captain Jiang and his men be attacked from both sides.

The next day, Wei Lichuan personally selected a team of fifty people and asked his deputy to be in charge of the team, while he and Xu Bo led the team.

After all, the situation in Kangzhou is different from that in Pingcheng before. The temperature was low before and the snow had not melted yet. Even if there was danger, it was temporarily frozen.

Now, everything is unblocked.

"Sister-in-law? Didn't you say that you wouldn't go if I sent someone?"

Seeing Bai Li and her good friend Cheng Siyun coming with Xu Bo, Wei Lichuan blurted out in surprise.

"I've thought about it and decided to go with you guys. Will the captain of the guard disagree?"

"How can that be possible?"

Does he dare to refuse?
Although Wei Lichuan had never seen Bai Li's battle record with his own eyes, he did not dare to underestimate her green radish at all. He was even jealous of those climbing on the walls outside their Yunxi Village. It was said that they had mutated and would autonomously kill any mutated animals that approached.

As a defense, thief insurance.

He hoped that Bai Li's ability would be advanced again one day, allowing her to move the green radish to Pingjiang Bridge, or to the wall around Pengcheng.

That would save everyone a lot of trouble.

After all, the number of soldiers under his command was really decreasing. Apart from those who had sacrificed before, he found several traitors who had been bribed a few days ago, including the soldier who delivered the letter to Bai Hua.

After the people are cleared out, he will not add any more people, which means that if he has one less soldier, he will always have one less soldier.

So he values everyone's life very much, otherwise he would not lead the team personally this time.

Bai Li also cherishes everyone's life, otherwise she wouldn't have brought Feng Bao with her today.

With her bird around, at least the birds in the sky won't come to cause trouble.

Not only the bird, there were also six crows following in the distance.

Ever since they helped deal with the mutant bats during the last heavy rain, these crows have made their home in her house. Her grandmother feeds them every day, and they are all fat and plump, looking fatter than the hens that lay eggs in their house.

They came out together, and Bai Li was a little worried. She thought that because they were too fat and their bodies were not as flexible as before, they would not be able to beat other birds in a fight when they arrived in Connecticut.

Don't be unable to help, otherwise she will have to go and rescue her.

Bai Li sat in the car and discussed with Feng Bao, "Why don't you let your black brothers go back first? Lose some weight later, and then come out to do the mission."

Fengbao tilted its little head and looked at her with its dark eyes. After a while, it touched her mouth with its beak.

What does this mean?
She looked out through the car window and saw the black crows still flying above their car, with no intention of going back at all.

But perhaps it was because of their presence that they were able to travel safely all the way to the highway in Connecticut. Not only did they not encounter any mutant birds, they didn't even see any mutant animals.

She thought she was frightened by the black crows, but in fact it was because most of the people were led away by Jiang Minglang and his team's two cars yesterday. The battlefield was about 20 kilometers away from the intersection where they got off the highway.

Although most of the bodies of the mutant animals have been burned, the bloodstains are still on the ground. If you look carefully, you can still find some unburned fur or claws.

good night!
