Chapter 55: Shennong tastes a hundred herbs
"This ........."
Before Du Jiujiu could say anything, Su Xiaohan had already turned around and walked towards the station.
"Hmph, there's a great ability, drag him."
When Su Xiaohan walked away, Wei Qingqing muttered quietly.
"Qingqing, why do you always have an opinion about him? Although Su Xiaohan seems a little unkind, she does help us a lot. β
Du Jiujiu saw that Wei Qingqing was always hostile to Su Xiaohan, so he wanted to persuade him. After all, Su Xiaohan has strong skills and good character, and it is better to be a friend than an enemy.
"What's so good about that stingy ghost, how can you help him speak, Sister Jiujiu! Should it be ......" Speaking of this, a hint of cunning suddenly flashed in Wei Qingqing's eyes.
"I don't think you like him!"
"How is that possible!" Hearing this, Du Jiujiu's face turned red all of a sudden, "He's not the type I like!" β
"And what type do you like?" Wei Qingqing suddenly came over and looked at Du Jiujiu with big eyes.
"Hmm...... Be upright, brave, mature and steady, and have a gentlemanly demeanor...... Oops, Qingqing! When is it, and are you still in the mood to think about this! Du Jiujiu was halfway through speaking, and suddenly remembered that they were still outside in danger, and I don't know how many eyes were quietly watching them in the distance.
"While it's getting late, let's hurry up and find some food. Although Su Xiaohan doesn't want it, we also want to eat it ourselves. An Cheng looked up at the position of the sun, and then said to Du Jiujiu and Wei Qingqing.
"It's good that all the necessities we collected before have fallen into the nest, so it's time to replenish them. Qingqing, you stay with Sister Xiaoyun, it should be enough for me to go with An Cheng. β
"Good...... Well, then you have to be safe! β
In the past few days, he has seen a lot of the power of mutant creatures, and Wei Qingqing is very worried that they will encounter danger. Unfortunately, his abilities can't be used in battle, so he can only walk back to the subway station one step at a time.
"Jiujiu, where are you going?" An Cheng couldn't help but ask when he saw Du Jiujiu's thoughtful appearance.
"The neighborhood of our school is quite prosperous, and there is a large shopping mall about a kilometer to the west, which will definitely have what we need. But ......"
Speaking of this, Du Jiujiu frowned and said, "Even if it is a thousand meters, it is not a short distance for us now, and I don't know how many dangers we will encounter on the road." And even if you get there, I'm afraid it's already dark. It's better to wait for Sister Xiaoyun's injury to heal another day, and let's go over together. β
"Indeed...... Since it's been so long, it's okay if we wait a few more days. An Cheng nodded when he heard this.
"Although we can't go to the mall today, we can try our luck at the store across the road. I remember that there were a few small restaurants and convenience stores, and if no one else had been the first to visit them, you would have found a lot of useful things in them! β
If you talk about this cruel end times, the only pleasure that brings Du Jiujiu is to collect materials. This kind of predatory pleasure is something she has never experienced before. Thinking of this, Du Jiujiu became a little eager to try.
An Cheng saw the light jumping in her eyes, and couldn't help but smile helplessly, reaching out and rubbing her hair: "Then let's go, it's going to be dark in a while." β
On the road, it was still An Cheng who was holding a scimitar to open the way in front, and Du Jiujiu followed behind to be vigilant about the surrounding situation.
Du Jiujiu held the long knife, suddenly thought of something, and patted An Cheng's shoulder.
"An Cheng, you made this knife for me, right? Thank you so much. β
"It was just a casual thing, I didn't expect you to wake up so early. You can make do with it first, and when I'm free, I'll make you a better one. An Cheng turned his head and smiled, without stopping his movements.
In the past few days when Du Jiujiu was unconscious, the weeds on the ground have grown a lot taller. After evolving, their vitality became so strong that even the asphalt roads were shattered by the tops of the new blades of grass.
Most of the vehicles parked on the side of the road have been overturned, scattered in the grass, and look like children's toys from a distance. There are also a few small cars, unfortunately through the windows of blades of grass, hanging in the air and swaying back and forth with the wind, funny and a little sad.
The once humble weeds that were trampled by humans at will, after gaining this inexplicable power, actually snatched back the territory that originally belonged to them from these monsters called "reinforced concrete". Those cars swaggering in the wind are the victory banners they hold high.
"Can't we go back to the way we were?" Du Jiujiu looked at the scene in front of him, and a thought suddenly rose from his heart. But she immediately shook her head again, gritted her teeth, and walked on.
More than half a month has passed since the end came. In late spring in the north, wildflowers bloom everywhere. Golden dandelions, dotted among the weeds.
"Jiujiu, I heard that dandelion is a wild vegetable, I don't know if this mutated dandelion can still be eaten." An Cheng cut off a leaf of the dandelion and took it in his hand and looked at it carefully.
"Do you want to emulate Shennong and taste a hundred herbs? Don't accidentally become a Hulk. After Du Jiujiu finished speaking, he giggled first. But after thinking about it, if these wild vegetables have not evolved to be poisonous, they can still be eaten, and the game meat that can be caught from time to time can be solved, then the problem of eating for a few of them can be solved by half.
"Let's pick some when we go back, and when we have a chance, let's test them on animals first!" Du Jiujiu sniffed closely, and a sweet smell came from the broken part of the leaf, which made people salivate.
An Cheng nodded, brushed aside the bush of fat and juicy dandelions, and continued to walk forward.
The two of them did not encounter danger in this short distance of a few tens of meters. However, when they bypassed a few stout trees and arrived at the destination of this trip, they were disappointed by the scene in front of them.
The windows of several convenience stores and restaurants in front of me have been smashed, and even the roller shutter doors have been torn open by someone with great force.
Du Jiujiu and An Cheng were still a little unwilling at first, and went in to search one by one, but they returned disappointed empty-handed.
The shelves have been swept away of all the food, not even cigarettes and toilet paper left. The only bags of puffed snacks scattered on the ground that had not been taken away also showed signs of being gnawed by rats.
