Chapter 149: Returning Home
Now, they walked exceptionally well, rescuing many of their comrades who had been hanging from trees, and bringing back some of their lost supplies.
The experimental tent that had fallen into the sand mountain was rolled up into a ball and hung in front of a building in the town.
Han Xiaoxiao burned the trunk of the tree next to her, and only then did she successfully take the experimental tent back.
The whole big tent is now wrapped in a pile of broken experimental equipment, and the bottles and cans that have been turned over have dyed the camouflage tent even more colorful, and I don't know which bottle of the original solution used for the experiment has been poured, giving off a bad smell.
"This one wasn't taken away." Professor Yang happily saw that his experimental equipment was all in it, and many specimens were also intact. He happily asked Xu Xuening to collect them, saying that he would take them out after bringing them back to Huacheng.
Xu Xuening looked at those things with disgust, and simply waved his hand and packed everything into the space. As for sorting, forget it, the smell of feces really didn't interest her in classifying.
"Professor, it's time to go." Captain Shi saw that most of his comrades had been recovered, and the rest ...... They had to go back with the relics they had found.
"Well, these three things need to be preserved, maybe our summer food will be theirs." Professor Yang said happily with a bag in his arms.
……
The plane slowly got closer and closer to Hwaseong, and Han Xiaoxiao and many other team members were excited. After going out for a month, they would rather never see the scenes in their lives, but now they all want to eat meat one by one, and when they mention green vegetables, their faces have turned green.
When the weather was nice, they flew over the plains, and when they opened their windows, they saw that the ground below them was yellowish-gray. According to Professor Yang, the continuous spread of the zombie virus has not only affected humans. Many lands and animals have also been eroded by the virus.
"According to our predictions at the time, humanity might not survive even three winters. The mutation of food will make there be fewer and fewer edible plants, which is why the state sends us out to find alternative food resources so urgently. Professor Yang sighed, "Fortunately, I brought Sister Xu with me this time, otherwise, we wouldn't be able to bring back a lot of things." That's a pity. ”
Since Professor Yang got on the plane, he didn't let go of his hands at all when he was holding the bottles and cans, and even when he ate, he looked at the three treasures in his arms.
Listening to his narration, the others did not feel so deeply, whether they could survive a summer is unknown, who cares where the food will come from in three years.
Since the end of the world came, these people who escaped from death have let go of life and death more and more, no one knows what will happen to them in the next moment, and no one can guarantee that they can live to the time when their hair is gray, so what they will plant in the future will not care so much about them.
"Speaking of which, Sister Xu, do you know that the crystal nucleus of zombies can give rise to plants?" Professor Yang raised his head and asked Xu Xuening.
Xu Xuening shook her head, she held the water cup in her hand, the water in it was provided to her by a person with water energy next to her, and Han Xiaoxiao warmed her up enthusiastically.
This kind of convenience and speed is the most popular among all the people in the team right now, and it directly improves their quality of life.
I heard that the so-called water on their last mission was all ice ballast, and after they came back, they all had a stomach problem.
"I've heard from a colleague who studies the crystal nucleus that this zombie's crystal nucleus is a good thing." Professor Yang raised a topic, "It can produce many things like batteries and fertilizers." ”
"Have you ever done this experiment?" Xu Xuening asked with concern, if this is the case, there will be a lot of crystal nuclei in her space, and the space has not expanded for a long time, and she doesn't know what happened. But the crystal nuclei she collected might be put to use.
"No, after I received this task, I came out directly. As for the research, I can only apply for a report after I go back. ”
Professor Yang sighed.
"You can contact me if you need it. I'm interested in the one you said. "Xu Xuening gave Professor Yang the address of Hwaseong." Especially the crystal nucleus, I think it can help you. "Professor Yang is a good professor, and she thinks she might still be connected to him.
"Haha, it's okay, I'll apply for the crystal nucleus from above. It should still be easy at my level. Professor Yang smiled, not thinking that it would be difficult to get the crystal nucleus for experiments.
Anyway, there are a lot of zombies now, and it shouldn't be so difficult to find two.
As everyone knows, the crystal nucleus of Hwaseong has long been strictly controlled.
Since the full enhancement of the abilities of all humans, the transformation and crafting of crystal nuclei has been put into production. The crystal nuclei on the black market are all priceless, and the shortage of crystal nuclei has further prompted many people to form hunting teams to hunt crystal nuclei on their own, and the zombies around Hwaseong are basically wiped out.
Even the scorpions that Xu Xuening encountered at the beginning were burned by a fire.
When they approached Hwaseong, they saw that the outside of Hwaseong was black and white, as if it had been cupped.
……
"Mom, I'm back." After Xu Xuening returned to Huacheng, she went directly to her home first. She was startled when she saw that the room was empty and there was no one.
"You're a girl from the Xu family, right?" The door next to it opened, and a man peeked out inside.
A middle-aged woman with curly hair and a few wrinkles on her face stood at the door looking at Xu Xuening in a red down jacket, and she said enthusiastically: "Your mother should have sent your son to school, and your uncle should be working." ”
"Auntie, who are you?"
"Oh, my surname is Zhang, you can just call me Aunt Zhang. By the way, my son also works with you. ”
The neighbor next door enthusiastically introduced Xu Xuening's life experience......
Putting down her things, Xu Xuening changed into a light sportswear and walked towards Xie Yan.
The cars that used to be congested all the way, as well as the fragments of glass that broke all over the ground, as well as the residual garbage and human excrement, have all been cleaned up. A black truck stopped on a nearby street, and workers in black rubber suits walked out of the building wearing masks and carrying a black bag.
"What is this?"
She stepped forward and looked, and the truck was already full of bags that were the same black. A hand was exposed from a bag that had not been fully pulled.
Xu Xuening looked at the blue-green hand, and the blackened traces were obviously turned into a zombie for a long time.
The original human beings have died, but their bodies have been controlled by the zombie virus, and their nerves and brains have been manipulated, so they have become one terrifying zombie after another.
"Get out of the way." The workers who were carrying the corpses saw Xu Xuening standing at the mouth of their truck, and couldn't help but remind.
Xu Xuening turned sideways to get out of the way, watched the two of them shake the black body bag from side to side twice, and then threw it into the pile of body bags.
"How did these bodies die? Is there any good way to get rid of zombies? Xu Xuening asked in surprise.
"No, they were hacked to death." One of the staff members shook his head.
"Huh?" She was amazed that the people in Hwaseong were so enthusiastic. Before she left, wasn't she afraid that the zombies would die, and she couldn't wait to shrink them into balls one by one and hide at home without going out, waiting for the relief food to be distributed above.
"You're new here?" The entire building has been cleaned of the corpses, and their work for today is complete.
They are also extremely happy when they are about to receive their salaries. Looking at the newcomer Xu Xuening, she was also in the mood to speak.
"Then you're in good luck to be assigned here. Don't listen to some people who are talking about the low wages here, they are all from other districts and want to pull people. ”
"Yes, girl, don't change places with anyone else. The food here is abundant, as long as you can find a job, you can feed two people without a problem. Don't make trouble, last time those evolutionaries and some stupid people followed the trouble, and after leaving here, they went to a few other districts and regretted dying. If you don't have enough food, you don't even get a good night's sleep, robbery is a thing, you girl should be careful. ”
"Thank you." Although she didn't know what was going on, she nodded from time to time when she listened to what these people said. "Yes, who is in charge here in the Eastern End?"
It seems that someone of her caliber should go and make a report.
"Thank you, boss."
"No, it should be called District Chief Xie now."
"What, I heard that the people around Boss Xie call him that."
"He is now in charge of such a big place in the East District, and he doesn't call the district chief anything! The boss is still the boss of the district......"
As they spoke, the two of them quarreled like this.
"Xie Yan?" Xu Xuening asked as she listened.
"That's right."
"I said that other people's bosses like to be called bosses, so we call them that."
"Who said it, it's obvious that the district mayor is more prestigious!"
"By the way, girl, where are you going? We're going to Chaoyun Street. The driver of the car asked Xu Xuening, who was in the back seat.
"Just send me there. I'm going to find someone. ”
"Oh, who are you looking for? It's full of big people living there. The driver asked casually, estimating that the girl in front of him might be looking for that relative to defect, or just looking for a partner. Looking at her appearance, she can find a good family in this year.
"Oh, I'm looking for Xie Yan." Xu Xuening opened her mouth casually.
"Haha, the girl is so funny."
The driver, who obviously thought Xu Xuening was joking, and another staff member laughed.
The car drove outside the most glorious hotel on Xiaoyun Street, and Xu Xuening jumped out of the car. "Thank you." She nodded and walked towards the hotel.
The people in the car watched Xu Xuening just walk in like this, and even the guards next to her stretched out their hands to salute, and couldn't help but sigh, "Hey, this girl really didn't lie to us!" ”
"Maybe it's a big shot."
"Who do you say she is?"
"How do I know this? You talked all the way, why didn't you ask her? ”
"Isn't this nonsense, isn't it you talking all the way?"
The two quarreled again.
