Jinling Base City is not the entire Jinling City, but an area that is easier to defend, about one-tenth the size of the original.

The houses in the base city are all divided by the military region to house the awakened and military families, and a small part is left for ordinary survivors.

After entering Jinling, Du Fei first found a clean room to live in.

After a long time of running and fighting, Du Fei has been in a state of mental tension, and after comprehending the subtle realm of the source ability, he seems to have seen the threshold of level 4, but he just can't get past it.

When I arrived in Jinling, after calming down, my nerves relaxed a lot. In this relaxed state of mind, the bottleneck of evolution level 4 was unexpectedly loosened a little. It seems that only one layer of window paper is missing, and it can be done with just a light poke.

Only then did Du Fei understand that proper relaxation was good for both cultivation and evolution.

After touching the last layer of the barrier of level 4, Du Fei had already become a quasi-level 4 awakener, with stronger control over the surrounding metals, and had already begun to appreciate the realm of level 4 source ability.

It's been a night since she came to Jinling, and Iliya is still listless and a little nervous. And she was more clingy than before, and she kept holding on to Du Fei's clothes and refused to let go, for fear that Du Fei would leave her.

Du Fei couldn't make it easier for him, so he finally forcibly left her in the room and went into the bathroom to solve it quickly.

It's just that after coming out, I saw Illya huddled in the corner with her knees and shivering, her two little hands kept rubbing her skirt, looking like a little girl with severe autism.

If, before he was reborn, someone said that he had seen the Dark Twins hiding in a corner and shivering in fear, then this person must have been stupefied by the bloody horror of the Dark Twins.

But now, Du Fei saw this poor little girl hiding in the corner and sobbing, and his heart was a little blocked.

Du Fei walked over, gently took her into his arms, and gently stroked her soft hair to soothe her.

As if she had grasped a life-saving straw, Illya put her arms around Du Fei's neck and strangled them tightly. The strength is so great that the cervical vertebrae of ordinary people will be strangled.

Du Fei patted her on the back and soothed her for a while, the little girl calmed down and returned to her sick appearance, but her hands were still tightly gripping Du Fei's clothes.

"Brother will take you out to play?" Du Fei hugged the little girl who was leaning on him with a languid expression and refused to come down, and wanted to take her out for a walk, although there was really nothing fun outside now, but at least it was better than staying in a room.

On the streets of Jinling Base City, order has been restored a lot, and one or two pedestrians can be seen from time to time. There are shops on the side of the road, and everything can be sold, except for food.

After the insect plague, food has become the most in-demand thing, and it has basically become hard currency.

In times of peace, when there is a nuclear accident abroad, food prices soar at home, and families hoard them. The last days are even more terrifying, and it is impossible for anyone to be willing to sell the grain.

Now in addition to food, energy crystallization is also hard currency, 1g of energy crystallization for food purchasing power is equivalent to 5 yuan before the end of the world, about two catties of rice.

However, this does not mean that the value of energy crystallization is low, on the contrary, it indicates that the value of energy crystallization is high.

The purchasing power of 1g of energy crystallization for food is 5 yuan, but the purchasing power of other items is thousands of yuan, and the purchasing power of luxury goods is tens of thousands or even tens of millions.

The army is deliberately trying to make energy crystallization a general equivalent, so the army opens up places where energy crystals can be exchanged for food.

Du Fei walked around the streets of Jinling with Yiliya in his arms, occasionally seeing pedestrians, and his mood was rarely relaxed.

People have always been social creatures, and after a month of separation from human society, when they integrated into the crowd again, there was an inexplicable cheerfulness in their hearts. The little girl in her arms, Illya, also became a lot more lively, and kept sweeping around with her mental power, observing her surroundings curiously.

When passing by a large supermarket, a young man greeted Du Fei, who should be selling goods.

Most of the current survivors have unkempt hair and shabby clothes, and there are very few people like Du Fei who are not expensive and gorgeous, but they are clean. Fools can see that people like Du Fei are uncles now.

The supermarket still has a Wal-Mart signboard on it, but it is now apparently a private store belonging to the family of a leader of the military region. The supermarket has been cleaned up, and only occasionally you can smell the smell of bleach in the air, which should be left by cleaning blood.

Supermarkets now do not accept cash, let alone credit cards. On a wooden board at the door was written in four large characters: "Ten pieces of one gram".

This means that the things in the supermarket, no matter how big or small, are all ten pieces plus one gram of energy crystals, which is a very common transaction mode in the last days.

In addition to food, the electrical appliances, clothes, beds, and pots and pans that have been preserved in the last days are all very sufficient, and they are not worth anything at all. It's just that if there are awakened people who settle down with their families, they always have to buy some. Besides, for the awakened, these things are really not expensive, and everyone is afraid of contracting the virus, so the awakened would rather spend some energy crystals to buy new ones than use old things for their families. And businessmen naturally do not let go of such opportunities.

As for the food, tea, and cigarettes in the supermarket, they are either robbed or hoarded, and the rest is all these broken copper and iron.

The young man worked hard to sell Du Fei those broken copper and iron, which was related to whether he could eat enough, so he worked very hard.

Before the end of the world, the third child especially liked to go to the big supermarket, shopping for an afternoon, and then didn't buy anything when it was over, and walked out empty-handed.

A few animals in the dormitory were fortunate enough to be dragged by the third child to go shopping once, and their legs were sore, and finally everyone bought something more or less, but the third child still didn't buy anything, and finally he said: "I'm here to make instant noodles." ”

Du Fei thought of this, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional, so he walked into the supermarket with Illya in his arms. I guess this little girl hasn't been in the supermarket yet, so it's better to go shopping.

Relaxation is also very important for the awakened, many times they are too persistent and too nervous, stuck in the bottleneck of evolution, and no matter how hard they try, they can't break through this bottleneck. But after relaxing, it is likely that this bottleneck will be naturally solved, and the degree of relaxation is applicable in many places.

To explain it scientifically, various hormones and other trace substances in the human body are in different levels in different environments and emotions. The amount of hormones will affect the process of evolution, and sometimes evolution has come to a halt and a different state of life is needed.

Du Fei is now stuck in the bottleneck between level 3 and level 4, but after relaxing, he has already touched the last layer of window paper, and he only needs to work hard to break through.

After Du Fei carried Illya into the supermarket, Illya looked at the goods in the supermarket curiously, these things were very novel to her.

There was already a team of people in the supermarket, two men and one woman, who seemed to be second-level awakened people. The three of them are dressed in a bit of hip-hop style, the woman is very spicy, and she wears a set of fiery red butterfly sleeves. Both men are muscular men, and the women are in front, and they should be the leaders of this group, and they seem to be in good shape.

"Hey, I saw a little white face again, it's still heavy." After the three of them saw Du Fei, one of the muscular men said disdainfully.
