Chapter 113: Fire Dragon Gang
When it was almost time for dinner, in order to thank everyone, Zhan Yue took out a batch of materials from his storage ring, from food, clothes to various supplies, which made everyone happy. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info net
Before leaving, Zhanyue filled his 5oo cubic meter storage ring, and on the way, he got several pieces of storage equipment, which also stored a lot of materials, and if he took them out, the food alone was enough for fifty people to eat for two years.
Miao Zhensheng learned that Zhan Yue had just returned from Qinghai City, and he didn't believe it, the more people who were desperate outside, the more they understood how difficult it was for a person to rush back from nearly 2,000 kilometers away.
Not to mention zombies and mutant beasts, the sinister human heart alone is enough to make the journey difficult.
Zhan Yue had no choice but to explain: "I have a flying war pet, and I flew all the way back. ”
Those who are able to browse the posts of various places can browse through the information page, and everyone will not be lonely, but they have not seen it with their own eyes, and they are still curious about the outside world.
Zhan Yue picked out Qinghai City and said some things along the way.
Yanping said with tears in her eyes: "The world is really chaotic, and the government and the army have no choice, will everyone continue like this in the future?" Those zombies and mutant beasts are getting more and more powerful, is there still hope for humans? ”
Zhang Ruoling explained to Zhanyue in a whisper: "Teacher Yan, Brother Ge and his son are studying in other places, and there has been no news. ”
Ge Yi comforted his wife and said: "The capable are also getting stronger, and there is always a way out for human beings." ”
Miao Zhensheng sighed: "It's not easy to say, now we have searched more than a dozen villages nearby, food is getting harder and harder to find, if it's farther, you can't go back at night, and the road is too dangerous, if it weren't for Mr. Zhan to take out these things, everyone would definitely be hungry." ”
The population density in rural areas is much less than that in cities, and it is not easy to gather into zombie groups, but the number of mutant beasts is more.
Initially, there were more than twenty adults in the group, but now there are only six of them left.
It can be said that people who go out every day cannot guarantee that they will be able to come back.
There are fields in rural areas, and after the population is reduced, it is reasonable to find food easily, but the reality is cruel.
Plants mutate much more slowly than animals, and some plants do not change until four or five years after the end of the world.
However, the mutation of crops was the first to appear, perhaps because of too much human intervention, whether it was fruits, vegetables or grains, which changed quickly after the end of the world.
There are three main directions of variation.
One is atavism or degradation, which is also the most common change.
The varieties of food that appear on the table now, whether it is fruits, vegetables or grains, have been evolved, cultivated and optimized by human beings for thousands of years, so as to obtain outstanding advantages in terms of yield, taste and drought resistance.
Once crops are degraded, humanity will face the dilemma of losing the harvest.
Take rice, the staple food of the Chinese people, as an example.
At present, there are more than 60,000 rice varieties in the world, and the yield of hybrid rice is an astonishing 1ooo kilograms.
What happens if it degenerates into primitive wild rice?
The primitive wild rice grows like a big bush of weeds, there are annual, there are perennial, whether annual or perennial, their seeds are very small, the yield is very low, one mu is dozens of catties.
And once ripe, it will soon fall off the plant on its own, and before you can harvest it, it will already fall into the soil.
The second is the direction of mutation that human beings most want to see.
Some crops become larger in size or seeds, and the yield is naturally higher; Some crops taste better; Some crops even contain strange energy, which can enhance physical fitness or improve strength after eating, becoming "spiritual plants".
It's a pity that these mutated crops are difficult for ordinary people to transplant except for the spirit plant, and the spirit plant is even more so, and they are often preempted by mutant beasts as soon as they mature in the wild.
The third direction is when crops become threatened, inedible, or difficult to collect.
Some crops grow thorns, some become poisonous, some crops have seeds that are as hard as iron and are inedible to humans, and some crops are quickly dispersed and planted in the land by means of wind blowing or explosion as soon as they are ripe.
In short, they begin to mutate in a direction that favors their own reproduction, rather than for human consumption.
The dangerous environment of the last days also makes it difficult for humans to safely plant, care for and harvest in the wild.
For various reasons, the land harvest has failed, and a few edible crops have become difficult to harvest.
Humans use hunting to solve the problem of meat, but staple foods and vegetables are also indispensable.
In order to solve this problem in the future, the major settlement bases have solved some of the problems by establishing farms, planting suitable mutated crops, and cultivating spirit planters.
Zhang Ruoling thought of this and said angrily: "There is a grain station in the town, and the grain is piled up in dozens of warehouses, and the people in the town can't eat it all in a year, and the people of the Fire Dragon Gang are too domineering, so they will move all the grain away and take it into their own hands." ”
Zhan Yue said: "The leader of this Fire Dragon Gang is the Liu brothers? ”
Tang Mingshan nodded and said, "Yes, they are very powerful, and they have basically occupied the entire Pingshan County, with thousands of members. ”
Deng Hanxin already knew about Zhanyue's grievances with the other party at this time, and was worried that he was eager to take revenge, and said: "The Liu family is a big clan in Pingshan County, before the end of the world, the people of the Liu family faction occupied one-third of the key positions in various government departments, Liu Zhijun is nothing, although the strength is high, but his personality is flying and domineering, he is a second ancestor, but his eldest brother is a heroic figure, and there are many capable people under him, and he is the only one in Pingshan County." ”
Tang Mingshan added: "Yes, someone on the information page said that when Liu Zhiqiang was still level 3, he killed a level 4 zombie in only three moves, and he was the strongest person in the entire Pingshan County." ”
After the end of the world, Tang Mingshan and others have been living in Xinyang Town, and they don't know much about the situation in Pingshan County.
Although the hatred in his heart is hard to get rid of, before he understands the specific situation of the other party, Zhan Yue will not act rashly, and he is not afraid of fighting alone, but in the face of a powerful force, he still wants to run rampant, which is undoubtedly looking for death.
Before falling asleep, Zhan Yue carefully looked at the surrounding environment, this cave was indeed a good refuge base like an air-raid shelter.
First of all, in terms of safety, Zhan Yue has used spiritual power scanning to detect, the stone walls around the cave are very thick, as long as the entrance to the cave on the cliff is guarded, the zombies and mutant beasts outside basically cannot threaten the people in the cave.
Secondly, the cave is warm in winter and cool in summer, and the temperature is very comfortable, don't write this, the end times will change not only human society, but also the climate.
With the drastic changes in the environment, extreme weather such as storms, floods, extreme heat and droughts, and heavy snow and cold will occur frequently in the last days.
Thirdly, the cave hall is very high, the air is fresh, and there are some stone crevices around and on the roof of the cave, which can circulate the air, and if you burn a fire in the cave, the smoke will automatically pass through the stone crevices in the roof of the cave.
On top of that, the cave's low-lying area is connected to groundwater, which can solve everyone's water problem as long as it is not polluted.
Of course, there are also disadvantages, except for the bad light, inconvenient life, and easy to live in a place without sunlight all year round, this place is more like a Jedi.
One of the most important laws of the last days is that there is no absolutely safe place in the world.
In the future, whether it is an ability or a monster, there are all kinds of strange and magical abilities, and in this seemingly solid cave in front of him, Zhan Yue knows at least ten or more skills or monsters, which can be easily attacked.
Only one exit is easy to defend, but if something happens, there is nowhere to escape.
If everyone's strength can't be quickly enhanced or big changes occur, it will be difficult for Tang Mingshan and others to support them with a group of children. (To be continued.) )
