Chapter Fifty-Eight: Foothold
Song Qingyuan looked in the direction in the dark, and the voice from the darkness seemed to be caused by some animal. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
This animal is likely to be a zombie, although I don't quite understand why the zombie appears here, but Song Qingyuan thinks that since the zombie has appeared, then the zombie must be killed first, and the reason can be investigated later.
Song Qingyuan carefully observed the source of the sound in the dark, unlike above, the light here had not yet been turned on, so even if she had super eyesight, it was still difficult for her to see everything in the extremely weak light.
Her gaze stretched deeper, and then she saw that in the depths of the cave, there were many unclear white shadows shaking. The white shadows seemed to be humanoid, and they seemed to be animals, and the light was so weak that they couldn't be distinguished.
However, Song Qingyuan still decided to take a risk, in order to avoid unknown dangers, she directly activated the condensation, stating the time and space, and then walked in that direction.
In the static space-time, because the power of time and space runs through the body, the world in Song Qingyuan's eyes has become a red world again, and there is no longer the problem of light weakening.
She walked over to where the voice came from, and then she saw something that shocked her.
It was a zombie-like creature, with red glasses and an open mouth, looking very ferocious, and its body was like a dried corpse, which was very terrifying.
It was secretly staring in the direction of the elevator, vigilant with a mad and bloodthirsty mood.
Song Qingyuan wanted to find the source of this zombie, and soon she found it, not far away, a pile of iron cages that seemed to be used for experiments, there were several dried corpses of monkeys in them, and an iron cage was opened, which seemed to be the effect of violence.
Song Qingyuan realized that this zombie turned out to be the dried corpse of an experimental monkey.
But no matter what it is, keeping it means danger. Song Qingyuan used her mental power to smash the zombies, and then returned to the previous elevator, and then lifted the condensation state, and the time and space returned to normal.
The servants walked out of the elevator and searched the entire cave under Song Qingyuan's arrangement.
Their movements were not slow, and they quickly completed the search of the entire cave, and did not find anything special, this should be the place where animal experiments were carried out in the previous base, and then when the base was evacuated, those monkeys were euthanized, but after the outbreak of the apocalypse, this place was also affected, and the dried corpse of a monkey that had been dead for decades mutated and became a strange zombie with a dry body.
This zombie had been completely shattered by Song Qingyuan using telekinesis before, and now there was no trace of it at all, and the servants only found some strange black powder, which was cleaned up as garbage.
The energy of zombies is conserved, and the zombies after death contribute to Song Qingyuan's fixed soul power, and this zombie is no exception.
The growth of soul power was very slow, Song Qingyuan did not feel any impatience, for her, she had long since stopped paying attention to the growth of soul power.
However, this also gave Song Qingyuan a warning, telling her that even corpses have the possibility of becoming zombies, so she must be more careful.
Song Qingyuan led the servants to search the entire cave, and then returned to the elevator.
The power supply system on this level of the cave was damaged and had to be repaired before the congregation could enter.
It was not difficult to repair the power supply line, and under Song Qingyuan's arrangement, there would soon be a good servant to carry out the work, and then repair the circuit system.
The lighting on the second floor was also lit, and Song Qingyuan sent people back to the first floor and began to arrange for the congregation to enter.
They carry food, tents, etc., and are stationed in this area.
arranged them one by one, and Song Qingyuan threw herself into it, forgetting about the others.
In the blink of an eye, it was already a week later.
A few days ago, all the members of the Black Lotus Holy Sect had taken up their seats, while Song Qingyuan and the divine servants had lived in the cave on the first floor.
Simple tents were set up here for them to live in.
At this moment, Song Qingyuan was in a tent, discussing the next plan with her sister.
"Sister, the food we carry is still insufficient, and we must think of a new way." Song Qingyuan looked at her sister Song Qingmo, expecting her to come up with a good idea.
"Sister, in addition to going out to collect, maybe we can try another way." Song Qingmo showed a contemplative expression.
"What's the solution?" Song Qingyuan couldn't wait to look at her sister, it was really difficult to go out to collect food, although there were professionals in this world, but Song Qingyuan had not yet found a professional with space ability, so the collection and transportation of materials was her biggest headache.
Song Qingyuan hopes to find a professional with spatial ability, so that he can permanently solve the logistics problem of Black Lotus, but it is not easy to find such a professional, and he must go out to look for it for a long time, and now the food in the base has been facing a shortage, and Song Qingyuan can't do it if he wants to go out to find it.
"Planting" Song Qingmo's expression looked very calm, but her words made Song Qingyuan excited.
"Sister, do you mean that we do the planting ourselves?"
"That's right," Song Qingmo smiled slightly, "Only this method can solve the problem once and for all." ”
Planting is not a simple matter, there are many issues to consider, the most critical of which are safety and land issues, as long as these two problems are solved, then planting can be carried out.
But Song Qingmo's idea is not so simple, she told her sister that when she was in the capital base before, she had paid special attention to the research of the capital base in related aspects, Song Qingmo found that the capital base was researching a soilless cultivation technology, and they even tried to use the corpses of zombies as nutrients for the culture medium, and found that the food grown was terrible toxicity, and people would be infected and become zombies after eating it.
But in their research, they found that when they were planted, ordinary crops grew much better than before, but the reason was not clear.
Song Qingyuan thought for a moment, then looked at her sister Song Qingmo, "That means that planting is completely feasible, right?" ”
"Yes, for some strange reason, the plants are more active and more likely to survive now than they were before the end of the world, and even those of us who don't have the slightest experience can try to grow them."
"Then sister, you will be in charge of this matter." Song Qingyuan said.
Song Qingmo nodded and agreed.
"But sister, we now have 30,000 people, but there is not enough food." Song Qingmo looked at his sister with a worried expression.
"Then go out and find some more." Song Qingyuan had no good way to do this, so she could only take the servants out to find food.
"I've calculated the yield and the rate, and we're about half the food gap at the moment. If we don't have that much food, we won't be able to wait for new food to grow and many people will starve to death. ”
"Then sister, you arrange to start the pioneer as soon as possible, and I will take people out to find food." Song Qingyuan looked in the direction of the entrance of the cave, the black lotus had finally stabilized now, and she could now go out with confidence, looking for food at the same time, she was also looking for something she wanted to do.
