Yes, Gu Lao Niang has finally reached her age, no matter how much she refuses to accept old age in her heart, her body can no longer keep up with her still young heart.

Perhaps because of the great changes in the climate, the difficulty of survival, and the migration that is always on the move, Gu Lao Niang's original body that could not shout a word of tiredness in any difficult environment quickly collapsed after the official completion of the hut of the three of them.

No matter how Gu Zheng uses a mother's deep love for her son to awaken the other party's will to survive...... Gu Lao Niang, who was completely powerless, was still declining day by day.

At first, she just couldn't keep up with the command of her brain, and she walked tremblingly, and after a while she had to find a small stool to lean on and rest for a while.

In the end, she couldn't even use her arms, even the most precious ...... in her ordinary life The crockpot that his son burned out of the first stove was also knocked to the ground in a mistake.

Then, the various functions of her body declined rapidly, and even her brain became confused again and again.

As this phenomenon of decline intensifies, Gu Lao Niang can't be short of people by her side.

Now Gu Lao Niang will look into the distance blankly, as if she has returned to the years many years ago.

She would sit at the dusty gate of the courtyard, doing the work at hand while waiting for her son to come home.

Once again, I accidentally got mixed with people and things by the threshold......

This old man, who has been clean all his life and has been neat all his life, finally became the kind of old man she once disliked the most.

That Qin Xiulan once said that eating, drinking, and Lazar need to be served, and it is better to die on the wall...... That kind of people.

However, at this time, Qin Xiulan, even after she came to her senses by accident, she couldn't change any of the status quo.

Because at this time, all her strength added up, and she couldn't even lift a little heavy object, let alone let her hit the wall vigorously.

And she...... has long forgotten the rather hilarious remarks she once released, and she will spend all her sober time ...... It's all used to look at and caress his son.

In the few sober moments that Gu Lao Niang did the most, she groped Gu Zheng's cheeks, which were no longer young, without saying a word, as if she had fallen into the best years of her life, and she was reluctant to give up.

She had to covet this last bit of her relationship with her son, because she knew that it was her who saw him, touched him, and loved him...... It's the last time.

The days went on and on...... While Gu Zheng was waiting for her to wake up at the head of his mother's bed...... It's over.

The burden of survival of the whole family can only be pressed on Gu Feifei's body.

This young man, who only really lived with Gu Zheng three years after the end of the world, has grown up rapidly in just three years.

He has changed from the man who had to rely on Gu Zheng's whipping and stick lessons to work at the beginning of the last days, to the current man who goes out early and returns late, fighting on the front line, just to provide a better life for his family...... A man with responsibility.

Whenever he returned to this quiet, somewhat frightening home in the dust or with a scar, the first thing he had to do was to run to his grandmother's room as fast as he could, and watch the old man either eat under the fare of his silent father or sleep under his father's gaze......

No matter what kind of scene it is, it will make Gu Feifei's heart settle down all of a sudden.

Then, the only noisy person in the house will use the most exaggerated and silly tone to announce his return, and like a showing off hamster, he will put the loot scavenged from the space in the same ...... In front of the eyes of the family.

This is the short and only happy time in the family, but no matter how amused Gu Feifei is, he can't resist the passage of time and the advancement of time.

He could only be helpless...... Watching his father gaze into the distant background, it seems that his grandmother's death is not just the end of a life, but the disintegration of this family.

It's as if his father will disappear in the next second, which is terrifying.

So, Gu Feifei, who was panicked, could only use a more desperate way to try to save the life of his elderly grandmother.

He gathers the sweetest dew, he hunts the fattest food, he gathers the most potent herbs, and he exchanges the most precious goods.

In order to let his grandmother enjoy the best life he can provide in this world at the last moment of his life, the ultimate goal is to let this old man live for two more years.

Gu Feifei did all this, Gu Zheng saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart, but he didn't mean to obstruct it at all.

Because he knows that in this moment of countdown, a young man who is about to live alone, the sooner he grows up, the more beneficial it will be for him.

And at this time, Gu Zheng finally began to be kind to Gu Feifei.

He will never open his mouth again to waste snacks and shut up the sarcasm of stupid retards.

He's unusual...... With a pleasant face, Gu Zheng was able to tell this young man very calmly and naturally all the knowledge related to survival in the last days that he could now master.

He is like a teacher who has preached and taught confusion and karma for countless lifetimes, detailed and patient, erudite and versatile.

But Gu Zheng's performance not only did not usher in Gu Feifei's joy, but ushered in this child...... The second round of panic and trembling.

An old man who has never shown face to you, but suddenly changed his normal behavior and showed a mysterious smile at you......

The collapse of this kind of character is very terrifying.

……

But this knowledge was too precious, and it didn't take long for Gu Feifei to forget everything around him, so that his days were in this kind of slow depression and urgent learning...... Passed.

If you say that which day is different, I am afraid that when more than half a year has passed on this day and is about to approach the end of the fourth year, Gu Zheng, who served Gu Lao Niang without pretending to be someone else's hand, asked Gu Feifei to take a day off and come to replace him.

On this day, Gu Zheng packed his bags, picked up a storage container at home, and went deep into the deepest part of the insect tide forest.

And that day was also the moment when a new word appeared in Gu Zheng's consciousness under the word 'assimilation' that had been extinguished.

'Evolution'

This rich and inexplicable word made Gu Zheng have to go to the largest forest today to observe it for himself.

And it was this glance that made Gu Zheng feel an unprecedented crisis.

That's because, since the word came around, creatures in the woods ...... Begin to move towards ...... The direction that doesn't look like it has evolved.
