Volume 1: The Source of Life Chapter 159: Scream
Jing Zhan glanced up, lowered his head and seriously looked for the seafood Shi Yan.
"My comrades-in-arms who used to train together in an independent regiment later became a mercenary team."
Jing Zhan had nothing to hide, Xiao Muchen asked, and he answered.
"And what about him?"
Jing Zhan thought about it, and still said the truth: "It's not good, it's not bad, it's not good, a person who is very good at thinking about himself." ”
He actually understands Shi Yandao better than Shi Yandao imagined, but if he doesn't say it, everyone thinks that he doesn't care, and that he is not sensitive to many things at all.
He just doesn't like to talk, and he's not a fool.
"Then let him follow us first, he is your friend after all."
"He's not my friend"
Jing Zhan did not hesitate to veto Xiao Muchen's definition, probably thinking that it was not good to say this, but after thinking about it, he added: "It's an acquaintance who has a good relationship." ”
They are indeed not friends, there have never been friends in the training camp, only temporary comrades-in-arms who take what they need, who knows one day, the so-called friends will turn around and stab you in the back.
He hesitated for a moment, and then added: "Whatever, I don't care, if you think it's not in the way, keep it, and get in the way." ”
"Okay, I see."
Xiao Muchen came over and said that the teacher said, just wanted to take the opportunity to find a topic to talk to.
Seeing that Jing Zhan didn't matter, he didn't continue the topic anymore, and asked what he wanted to ask, for him, this was really important: "Who else knows about the spar?" ”
"No, just the four of us. I didn't say that to anyone. ”
"Hmm."
Xiao Muchen thought about it, but decided to be frank: "This matter is very important, and it can even be related to the future of our base." So, I still say the same thing, thank you for telling me, if you need anything in the future, just ask. ”
He added in his heart that material things can be satisfied, but spiritual things, I will not give an inch.
Jing Zhan glanced at the shore and immediately walked to the other side: "Hurry up and catch it, Sang Yu is here, and it is estimated that he will have to be trained again." ”
Sure enough, as soon as Jing Zhan moved two steps, he heard Sang Yu's crisp little voice sound: "Xiao Muchen, Jing Zhan, don't be lazy, if you do this again, I will throw a stone to warn you." ”
Xiao Muchen looked at Jing Zhan, who had already been hiding away, helplessly raised his hand, walked to another body of water and began to look for it.
Meng Qinghu baked things, which had reached the point of perfection, and the dryness of the things was just right. Thread it with the straw rope prepared by mulberry elm, and prepare to carry it on the road one by one.
They don't look like they're fleeing, but like a few rich sons and sisters who came out to eat, drink and have fun and experience the farmhouse.
One person made a large bunch of carries, and Sang Yu counted them, almost enough, and the people in the sea also climbed ashore.
Several people each carried a string of dried fish, dried shrimp and crabs, but Sang Yu didn't mention anything, she just dangled her hands and followed her brothers on the journey home.
……
"Huhu...... I don't want to eat this anymore. ”
Sang Yu threw a roasted black sweet potato in his hand to Xiao Muchen: "I ate too much flatulence." ”
In the first two days, I found something to cook and eat with baked seafood, and everyone was tired of eating and wanted to change the taste.
Now, I miss the time when I had seafood again.
These grassroots things are really unpalatable.
Yesterday, I was lucky enough to come across a small piece of sweet potato grown by someone else.
The season has not arrived, it is a little early to plane, it is not sweet and noodles, it is good to eat raw, it is baked and eaten, it is all tendons. This mulberry elm who can't be embarrassed by the wood-based ability, she is about to ripen, and the sweet potatoes that have grown up still taste good.
Sang Yu picked up a small bag and carried it on her back, and when everyone finished eating, she cooked one or two trees, enough for everyone to eat for a day.
After eating sweet potatoes for two or three days, no matter how sweet they are, Sangyu can't stand it.
In the past few years in the oasis, only the first year or two of life was not very good, but she did not lack clothes and food. From time to time, Xiao Muchen can also subsidize some good ones for her.
Later, the oasis expanded, and the living conditions gradually rose, and you could basically eat whatever you wanted.
Jiang Chunyu and Xia Qing have good cooking skills, and she has a mouthful.
Jing Zhan silently watched Sang Yu stand up and go to find leaves and grass seeds, she has a wood-based ability that can ripen plants. If you're lucky, you'll even be able to spot fruit trees.
After eating a fist-sized sweet potato, Jing Zhan stood up, clapped his hands, took off his coat and threw it to Meng Qinghu: "I'll go and find out if there is anything to eat." ”
Meng Qinghu looked at his sister not far away and nodded: "Well, you be careful, don't fly too far." ”
He and Jing Zhan have rarely spoken since they met, and for more than nine years, they always feel that there is an invisible barrier between them. Can't rip it off, can't see it. I can't figure it out.
"Hmm."
Jing Zhan hummed, Chiguo put on his upper body, flapped his wings and flew away.
His clothes were ripped off by Meng Qinghu from a dead man, and no one disliked them, so he washed them and wore them.
Everyone watched Jing Zhan fly away, and no one asked, they were all used to this kind of Jing Zhan.
He often takes advantage of everyone's rush or breaks to go out for a spin, and if he's lucky, he can bring some food for Sangyu.
Sang Yu tinkered for a long time, giving birth to a sour leaf, Sang Yu ate a lot of it, only to feel that his stomach was much better.
"Would you like to eat some and take vitamins?"
Meng Qinghu walked over and picked two handfuls and asked, "Do you want to take this thing with you, you can still eat it on the road." ”
"If you don't bring it, it's not that you can't see it."
The vitality of the board is very strong, and it cannot be said that you have always met along the way, and you can always find it if you have the heart to find it.
This time, Sang Yu's state of mind is completely different from when he was six years old, and the panic and anxiety of following his brother when he was six years old is not there now.
She's more like she's out on a trip, and it's even more like if she eats better.
Jing Zhan came back quickly, picked up two gray rabbits in his hand and threw them to Meng Qinghu, took back his clothes and put them on.
Seeing Jing Zhan coming back, Sang Yu held up a handful of leaves and stuffed them into his mouth: "Eat." ”
Jing Zhan swallowed obediently, he likes to eat meat, not green things, most of them are told to eat by Sang Yu, he eats them. Or even when there is nothing to eat, eat it.
Seeing that Meng Qinghu was peeling, Shi Yan suggested: "Roast one, and leave one for Sang Yu to eat tomorrow." ”
Meng Qinghu shook his head: "No, maybe there will be a better one tomorrow, the weather is so hot and it will be bad." ”
Sang Yu also refused: "I'll just eat one meal, and I'll get tired of eating it every day." ”
It's nice to have meat to eat, it's still greasy, she's just making an excuse. And everyone also understood that Xiao Muchen smiled and didn't speak, and went to find firewood to help make the fire prosperous.
Shi Yandao simply carried a stick to find something to eat, and it was good to find it and take it with him on the way.
Basically, in addition to hurrying, they were looking for food and drink.
If you drink it once, you can take it for two days, and if you drink more, the water will be bad.
It's harder to eat, it's hard to find, it's still hot, you can't save it, and most of it can't be saved.
Two hares, five people, and Sang Yu gnawed on two rabbit legs. Everyone let her, and she didn't have to be really polite. Except for Shi Yandao, the rest are her closest people.
And the teacher said that she didn't need to be polite to him.
After eating the two big rabbit legs, the stomach was strong and strong.
Sang Yu felt like she could still catch up for a few hours, of course, if she wasn't tired.
This kind of walk-and-play stop-and-go rush, they walked for almost four days before they reached the former location of Qingcheng.
The tsunami did not reach this place, and the dead people and poultry in the city have rotted and deteriorated over the past few days.
The five of them could smell a foul smell from a distance, and they only glanced in the direction of Qingcheng, and then took a detour to continue their journey.
The once glorious city looks unusually depressed in the twilight.
Those towering high-rise buildings will be encroached upon by crazy climbing plants in the near future. The flat path is pushed open by the vigorous plants underground, and eventually, it becomes a world of plants and animals.
Humans, on the other hand, either stay away or sleep underground to provide nutrients to these plants.
Xiao Muchen became unusually silent.
Qingcheng and Chuncheng, the two closest cities to each other, one was destroyed by meteorites and volcanoes, and the other was buried by tsunamis and ground fissures.
He thought he could put it down, but when he saw the lonely Qingcheng in the distance, he remembered the Spring City he had built brick by brick.
"Xiao Muchen, do you eat dried sweet potatoes?"
His thoughts were broken by a crisp and pleasant voice, and a burnt dried sweet potato was held up in front of him.
This is made by Meng Qinghu, the sweet potatoes are cooked, roasted and dried, and chewed very vigorously in the mouth. Take one out if you have nothing to do, chew it, exercise your teeth, pass the loneliness, and satisfy your cravings.
"Okay."
Xiao Muchen smiled at the corner of his mouth, and instead of reaching out to pick it up, he opened his mouth and bit the dried sweet potato that Sang Yu held up in front of him.
Sang Yu was stunned for a moment, then glared at him, turned his head and continued to walk forward.
Xiao Muchen's afterglow saw Jing Zhan glance over here, and there was no mood swing, and he continued to hurry with his things on his back.
He suddenly felt bored again, what was wrong with him, why did he always compete with Jing Zhan.
They are adults, but Sangyu is still a child.
When it comes to love, it is too early for a man to marry a woman.
And shouldn't you think more about the situation you will have to face when you return to Stone City?
I don't know what Stone City looks like now, maybe a little more depressed than when they left, this is the best situation.
The young people are gone, and the rest are the old people. Coupled with the continuous appearance of meteorite groups, it is not easy for everyone to survive, let alone maintain the basic operation of Stone City.
Thinking of his grandfather, Xiao Muchen was even more anxious.
He has been gone for nine years, and there will be news coming and going intermittently for these nine years.
But in the past two years, because the road has been blocked, they have not received news from Shicheng for a long time.
Grandpa always reported good news and not bad news, and said that it was very good in Stone City, and the old people had nothing to do to get together to find some entertainment. Square dances, chess, and cards were all found.
They also went to the eighth district to farm with Old Man Meng, and now the land in the eighth district is much larger than before, and there is enough food to eat.
The more grandpa said that they were doing well, the more anxious Xiao Muchen became.
Many times, he longed to leave everything in his hands and fly to his grandfather's side.
If he had the wings of Jingzhan......
Thinking of his wings, Xiao Muchen only felt that his shoulder blades were hot and hot.
I only heard the wind in my ears, and the sound of brushing, and then came the exclamation of Sang Yu.
What is she calling?
When Xiao Muchen fell unconscious, Sang Yu's voice kept circling in his head.
