"Anyway, I said it today, as long as I live for a day, as long as I can still find you something to eat, regardless of whether it's weeds or tree bark, or something more disgusting." The man continued to growl, "I won't even allow you to eat this!" Unless I'm dead! ”

After saying this, the man picked up the saber on the ground, said "goodbye" to Liu Chang, and then led his wife and children out of this place and continued to look for their food.

And after he left, Liu Chang also thought a lot because of this man's words.

This man is just an ordinary person, in the territory of Zhengzhou, this kind of people are all over the streets, and they can't be more ordinary. But they all have their own wisdom, they don't have systematic knowledge, and they don't have the extraordinary analytical and scientific research ability like Li Qingshui and Zhao Zhuo. But he can think of the old way to survive in the cracks of this last world.

Human beings are far from being as great as they think, and they are not as fragile as they think.

In fact, most of these ordinary people, if they are given a period of adaptation time to survive the first wave of bacterial invasion and the crisis of maladaptation, most of them will actually be able to survive.

This is, of course, on the premise of saying that no one provides them with "food".

If the food synthesized by Zhao Zhuoxin is really as terrible as Li Qingshui said, then dozens of hundreds of years later, these people who have eaten food may be extinct because of this.

Liu Chang knows that although the Chinese never lack wisdom, they always seem to lack some integrity, less blood surnames, and like to follow the crowd. There are certainly not many people in the crowd who are willing to stick to their ideas like that middle-aged man, and when the first batch of crops comes down, he believes that most of them will eat them, and Zhao Zhuo is likely to get the kind of "absolute control" and "honor" of food that he wants.

As for what his purpose is after mastering these connections and resources, Liu Chang does not know.

After figuring out these details, Liu Chang felt more and more the horror of that young man. Radical thinking, daring to act, absolutely worthy of the last generation of heroes. But it's a pity that it seems that the heart is too vicious, although there is the courage of "although the world is my own", but it is more determined to "kill the world".

"Didn't this person think about the consequences of doing this?" Liu Chang had a question in his heart, "Or is there some other purpose?" ”

After thinking about it, he still didn't come up with a reason, and the surname Suo put this matter aside. There are some things that he can't figure out, and there are some things that he can't do even if he does.

What Liu Chang can do now, and what he must do, is only self-preservation.

Therefore, although he had a lot of questions in his mind, he still picked up the insect in his hand and looked at the plant-covered land under his feet - to find food.

Since the end of the day, plants have grown at the most rapid pace, and it is estimated that they have spread all over the world by this time. All kinds of novel plants sprouted from the ground, and many of them had mutations, taking on appearances that scientists could not recognize. Therefore, instead of being in short supply, human food has become so mixed that it is difficult for most people to distinguish what they can eat and what they can't.

With the small insects in his hands, Liu Chang has a lot of trouble in identifying plants on the ground.

On a trip in the afternoon, he found seven or eight edible plants. And every time he finds one, he immediately gathers the seedlings, seeds, and fruits of the plant and wraps them in a piece of cloth.

When the sky gradually darkened, he took this bag of things, returned to the research institute, and found Li Qingshui.

"Well, I found a total of seven or eight edible plants today, but I don't know which one can be planted on a large scale." Liu Chang put the cloth bag in his hand on Li Qingshui's experimental table.

"Seven or eight?" Li Qingshui saw what Liu Chang was wrapping in and showed a look of surprise, "You are very powerful!" ”

"Whatever it is, it's all for it to help taste it." Liu Chang also put the worm on Li Qingshui's table, and then told him everything that happened today.

"Well, that's a good idea. Brainstorming, the wisdom of ordinary people accumulates together, which is incomparable to any scientist. After listening to Liu Chang's words, Li Qingshui couldn't help but sigh: "After all, humans are social animals, and the wisdom of ordinary people cannot be ignored as a species that survives by relying on the wisdom of the group." I'm going to start planting these new plants tomorrow, and if I can, I hope to save more people. ”

"Hmm." Liu Chang looked at Li Qing's calm face and said with a smile: "Seriously, although you usually look cold, you are actually a kind guy." ”

As Liu Chang spoke, he thought of the scene where the two of them touched each other with their fists at the edge of the forest and went back to find the fat man together.

Then he turned around and walked out of the laboratory: "This is also the biggest difference between you and Zhao Zhuo." ”

"Keep researching here, and I won't bother you." After saying this, Liu Chang left the room.

Walking out of the laboratory and out of the experimental area, Liu Chang returned to the room belonging to Li Qingshui in the dormitory building, and found Xiao Jing, who had been anxiously waiting for him for a day in the room.

"I'm back." Opening the door, Liu Chang saw Xiao Jing standing next to the door at first sight, knowing that she felt her breath of life from afar, so she guarded the door, and then smiled a little warmly in her heart: "Wait, right?" ”

"Well, I'm in a hurry." The little girl nodded, and then grabbed Liu Chang's clothes.

"Then let's play today, I'm in a good mood."

"Hmm." The little girl nodded again.

After Liu Chang finished speaking, he also looked around the room, but found that there was nothing to play here except for the bed and the computer, and he lost the TV and the Internet, and he lost the space to go out, and the two of them didn't know what to play in the house.

After thinking about it, Liu Changsuo took a knife and cut a small piece of wood from the foot of the table, carved a sieve by himself, and then drew a flying chess game on the table with a pen and paper. After the chessboard was ready, he smiled "haha", and led the little girl to the joy of childhood under the thick fog outside, in the midst of danger.

An eighteen-year-old boy and a twelve-year-old girl, the two of them had a great time, and this was their only entertainment since the end of the day. The little girl smiled sweetly, and the scars on her face were all laughing out of flowers. And Liu Chang also had a lot of fun, in the process of playing chess, he thought of a lot of entertainment he had played when he was a child, glass balls, water margin cards and square corners, thinking about it, Liu Chang seemed to feel that his soul was out of the body and returned to that quiet and peaceful era.

But since the end of the day, these things have long since left him.

The end has come for more than a month, Liu Chang has experienced countless ups and downs and twists and turns, and he has matured a lot in the process of constantly falling down and getting up, and he has also lost a lot of happiness.

Therefore, they played this little flying chess for a long time, until Li Qingshui also came back from the laboratory, and played until Li Qingshui also joined in.

In the end, three people of different ages just played on a broken chessboard until late at night, until they were too tired to open their eyes, and then they each lay down in bed and fell asleep. And because of this broken chessboard, the three of them also relaxed their tense nerves for a long time, and fell asleep with a relaxed smile.

But at the end of the clock, leisure is never the main theme.

When they woke up the next day, everyone was back to their nervous normal.

In the next two days, Liu Chang was still carrying a small insect around the city of Zhengzhou, and Li Qingshui was also silently trying to plant the plant seeds he kept bringing over.

In three days, Liu Chang brought back a total of 27 planting species, and Li Qingshui also successfully tried to plant 18 of them, and at the same time determined that three of them had the possible surnames of large-scale planting. In the past three days, in addition to the more than 20 kinds of plants, Liu Chang also found a small white insect.

The translucent white crystal insect looks like a round grain of rice. There is no attack surname at all, but the reproductive ability and survival ability are amazing, everything can be eaten, everything can be digested by them, in Li Qingshui's words, "an insect that relies on strong reproductive ability and adaptability as the main means of survival competition".

After this strange insect was brought back by Liu Chang, Li Qingshui's experiment showed that they have a high protein content, and because they have "strong survivability, everything can be digested by them", so it is also very convenient to breed. After coming up with this argument, Li Qingshui asked Liu Chang to collect some seed insects, and specially opened up a piece of land for them to raise.

Therefore, in the past three days, Liu Chang and Li Qingshui have initially solved the food crisis.

In the same way, in the past three days, the people of Zhengzhou City have also ushered in the good news of "solving the food crisis".

Zhao Zhuo's Liangdou experimental field has finally been produced.

A large number of Liang beans were distributed to the military and civilians, this extremely nutritious food, a person only needs to eat more than 100 grams a day, can meet the basic needs of the body, and 300 grams can meet the entire nutritional needs of an adult.

Therefore, this new crop is also accepted and respected by the vast majority of people. Solving the food crisis for all people, this kind of practice of sprinkling the light in the last days can naturally arouse people's strong feelings and gratitude.

Therefore, under the secret encouragement of the military leadership, a vigorous god-making movement was launched again.

At the New Food Symposium and Commendation Conference - Sitting under the podium, Li Qingshui sat in the last row, listening to the original provinces and cities on the podium. Politics. The senior leaders of the government spoke in a sonorous and powerful manner, but he frowned deeply.

“…… We would like to commend Comrade Zhao Zhuo for his outstanding contributions in the field of new science...... The great and noble spirit of being willing to do things, doing practical things, and serving the people...... A new generation of people who are not afraid of hardship or tiredness...... Toward...... Learning ......"

"These cookie-cutter speeches are boring, aren't they?" Sitting next to Li Qingshui, Zhao Zhuo always has his kind smile.

"It's boring. However, we in China have always been good at creating national heroes, and these things may seem boring and lackluster, but you should know better than me the role of them. Otherwise, you wouldn't be secretly planning this series of events, would you? Li Qingshui frowned and looked at the person next to him who was about the same age as him, "And, then again, as a commended hero, shouldn't you sit in the first row to receive the medal?" ”

"yes, but I'd rather sit with smart people." Zhao Zhuo also turned his head to look at Li Qingshui, "I heard that you are also engaged in food research now?" ”
