Chapter 38: The Five-Legged Mule

Walking west on the road back to the ruins of the city, Zhuo Cheng didn't go far before he found that there were many corpses of scavengers on the Gobi, which was not too far from the wall, and there seemed to be an extra line of death between heaven and earth.

It's no wonder that after all this time, there are no scavengers in the town.

Zhuo Cheng pulled out the mace and walked forward vigilantly, without encountering an accident.

A gust of wind blew, and the weeds on the Gobi Desert rattled.

The sand and dust were raised, Zhuo Cheng covered his face, and when the wind passed, he was used to patting his head, but what he touched was a short stubble.

In the past, when I was bald, it was especially easy to take care of.

Growing hair back is a bit unaccustomed.

Zhuo Cheng walked along the edge of the woods, just in the late autumn season, the seeds of various plants were not difficult to find, and he soon found one thing, limited by his own ability, the seeds of tall trees could not be born for the time being.

Herbaceous plants in general, most of them are not a problem.

Zhuo Cheng is further familiar with this new ability, and at this stage, any kind of seed needs to be born in any part of his body, when he is in direct contact with the seed, close his eyes and enable the internal vision method, and distort the tumor through the inner vision of the stomach, and establish a connection with the seed, so that the seed can land and germinate.

From germination to growth, it takes more than a dozen breaths.

Zhuo Cheng's practice mainly focuses on two aspects, one is to reduce the time of closed eyes and inner vision, and the other is to speed up the growth rate.

The second is to look for seeds that can really bring combat effectiveness.

This is a very urgent need.

In the past, the mayor of the town was in front of everything.

In the future, you will face powerful, unknown and even strange enemies alone.

Along the way, I walked and practiced a little slowly, but I also gained something.

Next to a large tree, I found a few yellowed morning glories.

After picking the seeds and giving birth, the morning glory takes root on the ground, and the finger-thick vines are twisted and entangled, and because of their own growth characteristics, they grow a full ten meters long.

Zhuo Cheng collected the morning glory seeds and put them in the pocket on the left side, which was easy to pull out.

Stop-and-go, away from the death line, scavengers gradually appear on the road, many of whom rely on the experience passed down from generation to generation to find non-toxic plant tubers and stock up on food for the winter.

Others venture into the woods, and if they can find a rat or a squirrel burrow, there is always something to gain.

Zhuo Cheng felt that there were more people on the Gobi Desert than before.

Similarly, there are people who target the same kind.

The package that Zhuo Cheng carried on his body was like a magnet close to iron filings, and the eyes of some scavengers quickly stuck to it.

Having been a waste picker himself, Zhuo Cheng understands the minds of these people, and it is not Sweetwater Town outside.

After walking forward for a while, he came to a weathered rock more than a person high, and within fifty or sixty meters around Zhuo Cheng, at least a dozen scavengers followed.

His left hand knocked down the weathered rock, and with his right hand, he suddenly exerted force, picked up the mace and smashed it down!

Zhuo Cheng also wanted to try to see how much strength the distorted tumor cells of the muscles and skin had actually increased after spreading to the whole body.

Like a muffled sound of thunder, in the splash of rubble, the weathered rock shattered and collapsed!

The scavengers, like rabbits that saw wolves, swished and ran away.

As soon as the sun set, Zhuo Chengcheng found a leeward highland to camp.

This is the highest mound in the vicinity, with a large weathered rock to the west to keep the wind out, and there is only one way up to it.

After eating something briefly, he sat down with his back against the rock, and took out a thick rag from his baggage and wrapped it around his body, Zhuo Cheng missed the stone house and the bed made of soft grass in Sweetwater Town.

When the sky was dark, the northwest wind was blowing, and on the empty Gobi Desert, there seemed to be a giant roaring.

Zhuo Cheng couldn't sleep for a while, his left hand kept taking out the seeds from his coat pocket, quickly communicating with them with the inner vision method, and throwing them on the ground to let them grow quickly.

Teacher Paine said that the extraordinary distortion ability will improve only if you practice and use it more.

After Zhuo Cheng gave birth to more than a dozen weeds in a row, his stomach suddenly felt uncomfortable, and he felt like vomiting, so he quickly stopped.

Drink a sip of water, press it down a little, guess that it is almost to the limit of continuous use, causing complications?

It's okay not to think about complications, but when I think of complications, my upper arms are sore, just like when I exerted my strength before taking inhibiting drugs.

The best way to curb complications and distort tumor progression is to find inhibitory drugs.

This is a priority.

Zhuo Cheng looked up at the sky, trying to find out if there was a flying goat in the sky.

Staying alone, it is inevitable to be cranky.

Suddenly thinking that after the disintegration of the physical body, the spiritual consciousness returned to the east household on the ninth floor of the second unit, and considered whether there was any other situation behind it.

Thinking about it, I fell asleep in a daze.

In my sleep, a faint female voice lingered in my ears, ethereal and ethereal, as if from the sky.

"Are you alive? Are you alive? You're alive......"

Zhuo Cheng stood up suddenly, the mace in his hand was raised, and the eyes that had just found focus looked around vigilantly, and there was only darkness.

The strong chest rises and falls rapidly, and the nerves are tense to the extreme!

Because although the pitch of this voice has changed, Zhuo Cheng remembers it clearly, this is the voice that said that he gave him "distorted object-honest mushroom"!

Endless! The ghost is not gone!

After making sure that there was no danger around, Zhuo Cheng sat down again: The one who didn't know what existed, re-online?

Will his resurrection from the dead have something to do with the other party?

With such curiosity in his heart, Zhuo Cheng didn't dare to respond rashly, and just didn't exist for the time being.

Not to mention the weird distortion of this world, borrowing the corpse to resurrect the soul and rebirth of the rebirth, I haven't seen too much in the 2020s.

Zhuo Cheng sat back to rest, and by the moonlight and starlight, he found that the wild grass that had spawned had withered and drooped, and when he grabbed it, it broke into grass clippings, and even the grass seeds became fly ashes.

During the day, when I was groping and practicing, I went away after a period of observation and did not notice this situation.

On second thought, it seems that the process of germination to growth and then withering is distorted.

Before going to bed, Zhuo Cheng changed a few other seeds to give birth, and when he woke up the next day, the plants that gave birth to them all withered.

Pack your bags and set off again, the closer you get to the ruins of the city, the fewer scavengers.

Zhuo Cheng was strange, entering the ruins of the city, walking along the path mixed with construction rubbish, between the ruins and broken walls, there were no scavengers, only a few three- or four-story dilapidated buildings standing alone.

Looking for a wall that is still three stories high, Zhuo Cheng raised his eyes and looked at the ruins of the city, which was already full of desolate ruins, and he couldn't see a single figure, which was even more desolate.

Zhuo Cheng was doubly careful, took the mace in his hand, and followed the familiar road to find the square where the singularity camp was located.

The camp no longer exists, wells have been filled, buildings have been demolished, and there are large patches of dark blood on the ground, as if a terrible massacre had taken place.

Boss Huo said that the flying goat's inner should cooperate with the thief group to break through this singularity camp.

Zhuo Cheng made a little observation, then turned south, approaching the edge of the city over there, and there was another camp.

The situation is similar, the camp has long been razed to the ground.

On the way, Zhuo Cheng never saw even a single waste picker!

It has been a long time since the Flying Goat Bandits breached the Singularity Camp, and compared to the dangerous and eerie wilderness, the city ruins are safer at night, why can't a single scavenger see it?

Zhuo Cheng entered the ruins of the city, on the one hand, to find suppressive drugs, and on the other hand, to find someone to find out about the wilderness.

Located in the wilderness to the south, it was very foreign to him.

Finding a three-story building with only two walls left, Zhuo Cheng quickly climbed up to see the specific situation in the south.

Speaking of which, he's been here for a long time, too.

Stand high and see far away, and you can look over the garbage hills.

There was smoke and dust rising from the south, and it was not clear at first, but it ran all the way to the north, and it didn't take long for Zhuo Cheng to find that it was a brown mule running in front, and six or seven people were chasing after him frantically!

This mule looked familiar, and Zhuo Cheng quickly remembered that he had seen it in the slave owner's camp!

The five-legged mule that gave Dolphy a shot!

Boss Huo spit out a large string of truths when he ate honest mushrooms, mentioning one thing, this five-legged mule is the liaison between the Wilderness Bandits and Singularity Neiying.

Zhuo Cheng observed the direction of the mule's run, went downstairs diagonally, climbed up a garbage hill near the abandoned road, and hid behind a large pile of broken bricks.

Not far away, the mules were running wildly towards the smoke and dust.

Zhuo Cheng took out a few morning glory seeds in his left hand, closed his eyes and activated the inner vision method, and sprinkled the seeds on the road after a while.

The seeds sprouted and grew morning glory vines, which crawled on the garbage heaps on both sides of the road under the command of Zhuo Cheng's mind.

The mule ran closer and closer, and Zhuo Cheng, the person behind him, saw it clearly.

There were six men in all, tall and thin, and fast runners, two with bows and crossbows, two with sheaths, and two with whips, chews, and saddles.

The mule ran and stopped, when he found that the rubbish pile on the roadside was covered with vines and yellow morning glories blooming in the wind!

This golden morning glory seems to have an unparalleled attraction for mules.

The mule ignored the pursuers behind him, opened his mouth, and gnawed on the flowers.

One, two...... I just can't stop talking.

The mule's big eyes, which looked like donkeys and not horses, narrowed, and the fifth leg dragged to the ground.

Zhuo Cheng saw it clearly, and faintly saw the characteristics of honest mushrooms, but the difference was that the mule only cared about eating and did not speak.

The pursuers are not affected by the yellow morning glory!

While the mule was eating flowers, one of the pursuers waved the lass and put the noose around the mule's neck.

"Pull!" This man beckoned to his companions, and he wanted to work together to pull the mule down!

Only the one with the whip did not move, but approached the mule, ready to take the whip and whip it!

The one who pulled the pole shouted, "This mule is sick!" Trap her! Train well! She obediently followed, and easily did not leave! ”

Zhuo Chengxin said, what kind of operation is this?

According to Boss Huo, and what he saw with his own eyes, this is clearly an extraordinary twister who has fused with the flesh and blood of the mule!

This mule is very useful, and it is impossible for Zhuo Cheng to let people take it away.

The mules patronized and nibbled on the flowers, and had no intention of resisting at all.

Several people grabbed the sleeve pole and tried to pull the mule down, and kicked their feet on the ground hard, but suddenly they were pulled by something and fell to the ground one after another.

Before they could understand, they saw the morning glory vines come to life, and they were bound to knot with each other.

And he that had the whip was also wound to the ground.
