Chapter Ninety-Six: Advantages of Subway Stations

"Why didn't I think of that? Our city's subway lines extend in all directions, and there is no sunlight underground, so there are almost no mutant plants, so we can really save a lot of time if we pass through the tunnel! Jiujiu, you're so smart! An Cheng raised his eyebrows, hugged Du Jiujiu next to him, and laughed loudly.

In the last days, expose yourself to external dangers, and the danger increases exponentially, even with every additional moment. If the task can be completed in a few days, and there are so many obstacles on the way, then with the strength of a few of them, there is still a great certainty that they can return safely.

"Brother, you shouldn't refuse me again this time, right? I'm familiar with the subway routes, and if I don't show you the way, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you, an outsider, to find where to go, right? An Cheng's mood had calmed down at this time, she held Luo Yucheng's shoulders with both hands and tilted her head to look at him.

Luo Yucheng frowned, helplessly looked at his cousin, who was not afraid of heaven and earth like a boy since he was a child, and turned his head to look at Du Jiujiu who was standing next to him.

Seeing that there was no trace of fear on both of their faces, he hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.

Du Jiujiu also breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that An Cheng finally got what he wanted.

"What does this smell like, what's mushy?"

At this moment, accompanied by a sound of footsteps, a familiar voice suddenly came from the staircase.

Du Jiujiu looked up, but saw Hu Xiaoyun walking towards here, frowning, and blocking his nose with his hand. She was followed by two people, who were Ah Ming and Huang Zai, who had gone out to pick mushrooms with her before.

"Oh no, my porridge!" Du Jiujiu suddenly remembered that there was white rice porridge boiling in his pot, and hurriedly ran to the pot, but saw bursts of black smoke rising from the pot.

She quickly picked up the spoon and stirred it, but it was too late.

"Alas, without a rice cooker, cooking is simply too difficult." Du Jiujiu hung her head in frustration, she suddenly found that it was easier for her to fight the alien beast than cooking.

"Jiujiu, let me come." Seeing this, Hu Xiaoyun walked over in three steps and took the spoon in Du Jiujiu's hand.

"Sister Xiaoyun, ...... you" Du Jiujiu hadn't forgotten the scene when the three of them made a mess of the kitchen, and looked at Hu Xiaoyun with a worried face.

Hu Xiaoyun seemed to see what she was thinking, and laughed out loud.

"The first time I had no experience, but now I'm much better at cooking! And don't forget that I'm a fire-based ability, and controlling fire is a breeze for me. ”

Listening to Hu Xiaoyun's words, Du Jiujiu's eyes suddenly lit up. But then she remembered something, and her frustration grew even stronger.

She told Hu Xiaoyun about the "unequal treaty" she signed with Su Xiaohan - she was responsible for cooking for ten days.

Hu Xiaoyun almost didn't shout when he heard it: "He's too bad, isn't he, let Jiujiu cook for you?" Isn't that going to pull us along with bad luck!? ”

Du Jiujiu couldn't cry or laugh at this time, even Hu Xiaoyun began to dislike her, maybe she really should practice her cooking skills.

"Sister Xiaoyun, shall we put the basket here?" Ah Ming and Huang Zai, who were following Hu Xiaoyun just now, walked down the stairs with a basket full of mushrooms at this time, and pointed to a vacant lot next to the stairs and asked.

"Well, okay, it's been a hard day." Hu Xiaoyun turned his head and returned a bright smile to the two of them.

Ah Ming and Huang Zai both blushed and put down what they were doing. After smirking and saying goodbye to Hu Xiaoyun, the two of them ran upstairs as if they were fleeing.

Seeing this, Du Jiujiu couldn't help but sigh silently, no matter what time it is, there is always an advantage in being beautiful. These two people looked obviously older than Hu Xiaoyun, and they even willingly called her Sister Xiaoyun and volunteered to be her coolies.

"How are these two people frizzy, and they left before they took their share." Hu Xiaoyun didn't seem to notice the abnormality of these two people, and frowned on his forehead.

"Forget it, I'll help them move it up later." Du Jiujiu didn't say anything, just walked over and moved a basket of mushrooms over.

This basket of mushrooms doesn't look much different from the mushrooms I ate before the end of the world, but it's slightly larger and darker.

However, Du Jiujiu still questioned its edibility, after all, mushrooms are easy to poison food even before the apocalypse, not to mention that many animals and plants have mutated now, and it is unknown what has happened to mushrooms like mushrooms.

"It's okay, we already ate it yesterday, and it tastes very good!" Hu Xiaoyun picked up a mushroom from the basket, put it under his nose and sniffed it, and then showed an intoxicated expression.

Seeing this, Du Jiujiu also picked up one and sniffed it gently. Sure enough, as Hu Xiaoyun said, in addition to the sweet taste of mushrooms, there is also a very special aroma, which makes people sigh just by smelling it.

"It seems that the direction of these biological mutations is not all unfavorable to people!" Du Jiujiu reluctantly put the mushroom back and said thoughtfully.

At this time, a coughing sound came from the depths of the subway, and Du Jiujiu remembered that he hadn't told Hu Xiaoyun that Luo Yucheng had woken up.

Hu Xiaoyun turned his head to look at the voice, although the lights in the subway station were dim, but when he looked closely, he still saw Luo Yucheng, who had been lying on the bed, with his eyes open at this time, coughing a little hard.

Luo Yucheng was seriously injured and near death that day, and it was Du Jiujiu and Hu Xiaoyun who rescued him together. Although he was only a one-sided relationship with him, Hu Xiaoyun was still very happy to see him wake up.

After briefly inquiring about Luo Yucheng's physical condition, Hu Xiaoyun returned to the mushroom basket and picked it up.

Du Jiujiu had nothing to do, and he also followed Hu Xiaoyun's example and cut off the roots of the mushroom with a knife.

After only a few moments, their hands were covered in dirt.

"Qingqing, why hasn't that girl come out yet?" Hu Xiaoyun walked to the basin and wanted to scoop up some water, but found that the large basin of water that Wei Qingqing had filled before had bottomed out at this time.

"By the way, I still listened to what Xiao Chen said, Qingqing has locked herself up and been studying her abilities. But after all this time, she hasn't come out, shouldn't there be any danger? Du Jiujiu frowned and said with some concern.

Although the probability of danger in the base they have guarded is very small, the current creatures have become strange due to evolution, and no one can guarantee that this place will be safe.

"Well, I'm not too reassured, otherwise let's go see her."
