Chapter Eighty-Eight: Mutant Wheat
After Li Youran and his entourage had a meal in Meimei, they set out on the journey to Qingxian again.
Out of Dong City, it belongs to the township area, walking along the straight and empty highway, both sides of the highway are golden wheat fields, the golden color like a godsend makes Xiao Mengting, who has not seen many crops many times, widen their eyes.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and the golden wheat fields that seemed to stretch endlessly were undulating, and the scenery was beautiful!
"Wow! It's so beautiful! Tian Feifei was amazed, this scene made her even eliminate some of the fatigue caused by the constant rush.
"What is this, leisurely." Tian Feifei jumped up and down beside Li Youran and asked curiously.
"Wheat." Li said leisurely.
"Wheat? No way? At most, this season has not been planted for a long time, right? Xiao Mengting's hometown is rural, but she knows some knowledge about crops, so she was a little surprised in disbelief.
In fact, when she first saw these golden yellows that seemed to be connected to the skyline, she also thought it was wheat, but the seriousness accumulated over the years still made her a little skeptical.
"This is wheat, but after being infected, it has changed, so it has become what it is now." Li leisurely explained.
Like this kind of mutated wheat, it is still relatively common in the last days, and the mutated wheat crop in the last days has almost become the basic food source of the major bases, because it is very easy to be infected and mutated, resulting in its resistance is the most outstanding among many crops, and the survival rate is also the first in this era of inorganic, fertilizer-free and pest-riding.
It is precisely because of the mutation that the wheat can grow like this in such a short time, which can already be harvested if ordinary wheat is placed in peacetime, but now in this period, in fact, it is not really mature for mutant wheat, when it is really ripe, it will grow into a towering tree, and the ears of wheat can be as big as a sack!
This is the real sense of the big yield, a wheat tree can feed a family!
However, for this kind of crop that is like a treasure in the last days, Li Youran said that he was very indifferent.
Don't look at how large the yield of this wheat is, how gratifying the growth is, but the wheat grains produced are extremely unpalatable, and the flour made from its wheat grains is rough and ugly, and there is a bitter taste that is removed by the brain!
In the last days, although this thing is planted by major bases, it is only used as a food to help the hungry, and this thing is basically no different from pig food for those powerful evolutionaries, unless they are hungry to the extreme, otherwise no one will eat the food made of this thing.
Moreover, as a strong existence, evolutionaries are basically tempered after countless battles, and they will be consumed when they have battles, and if they want to replenish energy, they have to eat better food, and rough food like mutant wheat is only full for them, and there is no recovery effect.
In his previous life, because his strength was not strong in the early stage of the apocalypse, Li Youran also followed those who hid in the base all day long, did not dare to go out to kill zombies, and ate the guys who waited for death to eat mutated wheat pasta for a year, and the rough gnocchi that was difficult to swallow, he didn't know how he ate it at that time, anyway, after Tian Feifei became stronger because of that incident, he never ate that kind of food again.
Now that he sees this kind of golden thing again, Li Youran naturally doesn't feel anything.
"Can you eat these mutated wheat?" Xiao Mengting asked.
"Yes, it's just not delicious, it's the same as pig food." Li Youran was concise and to the point.
Tian Feifei and Xiao Mengting were stunned for a few seconds as if they were choked.
"Wouldn't it? Could something so beautiful be the same as pig food? Tian Feifei was a little unconvinced.
"You haven't eaten it, how do you know?" Xiao Mengting grasped the key point of the problem and looked at Li Youran's eyes.
Li Youran now has memorized the answer to this kind of question, his expression is not panicked at all, and he said in an extremely calm tone: "Have you forgotten the dream I told you about me at the beginning?" Now that I think about it, maybe that dream is a kind of foreknowledge of the future, and I may become a mutant when the end of the world comes, that is, an advance mutant. ”
"Wow, you're so powerful, hmph, why don't I awaken into a mutant!" Tian Feifei first said enviously, and then pursed her lips again.
Originally, she already felt that she was powerful enough when she became a first-order evolutionary, but who knew that Li Youran turned out to be that kind of extremely rare mutant! She now thinks that mutants are really powerful, and they can summon skeletons and advance the future, which is simply amazing!
Xiao Mengting looked at Li Youran with an indifferent expression with a smile on the side, and a trace of ...... rose inexplicably in her heart Pride?
The highway was empty, not a single vehicle, and not a single zombie appeared, which made Li Youran and his party a lot easier.
After walking forward for a short time, everyone walked off the highway and walked into the road that was still relatively empty, but although the road was relatively empty, it was not far away, and several people still saw some zombies.
Not far in front of them, there were about seventeen or eighteen zombies, swaying like a swarm of stupid flies, like a group of injured people who had been in a car accident, dragging their bloodstained bodies back and forth beside several scrapped cars.
Moreover, there is also a first-order zombie in it!
Li Youran looked at the sturdy figure in front of him, and his frowning brows gradually stretched again.
"Leisurely, that? Like!" Tian Feifei looked at the first-order zombie in front of her, covered her red mouth and said in surprise.
That's right, the first-order zombie in front of you is the same as the zombie that attacked Tian Feifei and her party in the girls' dormitory - Ripper!
The main reason why Li Youran and Tian Feifei quickly recognized it was that the zombie in front of them also had a pair of huge sharp claws!
Ripper, violent and brutal, combat is its stimulant!
However, although it was difficult to deal with an extremely offensive zombie like the Ripper, Li Youran was relieved when he saw it.
Because it has a fatal flaw - it can't be called a little brother!
At this stage, it is the period when the number of zombies is the most dominant, if the first-order zombies in front of him are lickers, then Li Youran is definitely thinking about retreating quickly! Because if they wait for the huge crowd of corpses to come, their situation will be in danger.
"Leisurely, are we retreating or ......" Xiao Mengting hesitated for a moment and asked.
"Don't be afraid, fight." Li Youran smiled.
For a personal combat enthusiast like the Ripper, Li Youran has no worries about dealing with it, just right!
