Chapter 36: The Diffusion of the Million Elizabeth (4)

After beckoning the guards to re-block the gate, the old man turned around and walked ahead to lead the way, followed by Zhao Xida and Elizabeth, who was dragging the jumping worm.

However, compared to the village chief, who was accustomed to seeing strong winds and waves, those guards were still a little nervous, they scattered in twos and threes, and followed the two of them in a loose formation, perhaps because they were afraid of being infected by Elizabeth, they didn't dare to get too close, but they didn't dare to get too far away for fear of her messing around.

The group walked down the dim and empty corridor, towards the dazzling light at the end of the front, and after a short and awkward silence, the village chief spoke first.

You've hunted an almost complete jumping worm, say, what do you want to change? Xu is old and frail, the village chief walks very slowly, and the crutches on the concrete floor make a rhythmic tapping sound, like the sound of ripples spreading out echoes in the dim corridor for a long time, but not so much as changing, you basically can't look at what we can give here, right?

Look at what you're saying, you've got a lot of good stuff here!

Nonsense, what is there in our village that I don't know? Do you really think that I have been the village chief for nothing for decades? The village chief glared at her, and came to listen to the story as usual?

Elizabeth scratched her head and smirked: "Eh, hey~ The stories you tell are very interesting! And every time I sit by the fire and eat barbecue, and listen to the stories told by the village chief, I vaguely feel as if I can remember something, maybe I can remember the past after listening to it a few more times

Her words caused Zhao Xida to cast a surprised look, but this glance was very hidden, and immediately diverted her gaze, and no one noticed her abnormality.

You, the village chief, couldn't help but sigh, it's winter now, there are fewer and fewer animals that can be hunted, and the growth of crops has become very difficult. It's good for you, but instead exchange the prey that you have hunted with great difficulty, and let me tell you a story, can you get by this winter?

It's okay~ It's really not enough for me to catch some bugs, I'm amazing! Elizabeth smiled indifferently.

The village chief seemed to want to persuade her again, but when the words came to his lips, he stopped talking, and led the way in front in silence.

Zhao Xida listened quietly to their conversation and did not speak, Elizabeth's performance along the way revealed strange things everywhere, especially after she said that she couldn't remember the past, a lot of doubts and speculations appeared in the puppet girl's heart, but now is not a good time to ask about this.

Everyone walked all the way through the dim corridor of the concrete building, the dazzling light in front of them became brighter and brighter, and after a while, everyone walked out of the gloomy and depressing corridor, and the scene suddenly became brighter.

Sandwiched between the cracks of abandoned high-rise buildings, the survivors have built a retaining wall out of barbed wire, iron plates, and heavy useless rubbish to separate the inside from the dangerous outside world, and most of the buildings here are divided into two categories, one is a direct conversion of the first floor of the old world building into a room, and the other part is a patchwork of simple shacks and tents built by the survivors with the materials they can find.

Standing at the entrance, Zhao saw a small piece of lawn, with unnamed bright flowers swaying in the breeze, and sunlight spilling through the cracks of high-rise buildings, coating this small lawn with a layer of light curtain, quiet and warm.

It's so beautiful~ Elizabeth couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion, no matter how many times she saw this scene, she felt like her heart was healed.

Hehe, these flowers and plants are all taken care of by the children. The village chief also showed a soft smile on his face, and his eyes became ethereal, as if he was reminiscing about the distant past, and they usually had nothing to play with, and some children followed the example of adults, using the knowledge they learned in school to take care of these flowers and plants

They were a little careless at first, raising a lot of flowers and plants, and several times clamoring for the team to dig up some flowers and plants for them, and even sneaked out for this matter. Because adults have wanted to tear it down for a long time, but I think that people must always have a thought and a hobby to live, and since children like it and it doesn't affect the survival of the settlement, it doesn't matter if you support them to do it.

How many years have passed, the original children have grown up, have their own children, they will be taken care of by their children, and then the children's children have also grown up, this flower garden has become the memory of two generations, and now everyone is used to this scenery is really good

Erzhu, who was holding a crossbow in his hand, couldn't help but agree: Yes, after getting used to this scenery, every time I come back from hunting outside, I will feel like 'Ah finally home' when I see this flower garden, and I will naturally feel relieved

His words were echoed by his companions, and the other guards nodded their heads.

Perhaps because of the riots just now, the survivors were hiding in their homes and did not dare to come out, so now they were the only group of people on the streets of the settlement, passing through the concrete buildings of the old world and the contrasting dilapidated shacks, and under the complicated gaze that came out of the cracks in the door panels, they passed through the center of the settlement&ash;&ash; the only place where there were no tents or shacks, and what looked like a small square, and finally came to the village chief's house.

The house where the village chief lives is not the first floor of a concrete building, nor is it a crowded and dilapidated shack, but a sloping roof bungalow that looks more magnificent, but it is also because of the perennial wind and sun, the outer wall has faded and fallen off, and there are many terrifying cracks on the wall, but now these cracks have been filled with clay of different colors, and there is a low earthen wall built with tamped soil around the bungalow.

Okay, don't follow you, it's almost time to eat, hurry up and notify the others, the alarm level has dropped, let them do what they should do now, Erzhu, don't go, you go to the courtyard to get some firewood and charcoal, take out my pot and stove to light the fire, and then bring the stool

Perhaps because Elizabeth seemed to be exceptionally normal today, and did not feel sick at all, the village chief looked at his watch and found that it was close to dinner, so he sent the guards away, and by the way, he asked Erzhu to hurry to boil the pot and light the fire.

Eh&ash;&ash; Erzhu lengthened his voice dissatisfiedly, looking at his companions who had left gloatingly, with distressed faces: Why am I going.

Let you go, what are so many words.

Okay, good, just go, it's true, always let me do these hard jobs

The village chief ignored the muttering of the two pillars, and soon the latter ran over with a pot on his back, a small stove full of charcoal and firewood, and a few small benches.

Come on, come on, sit down, the village chief sat on the small bench, didn't look at the two pillars running around next to him, and turned his head to look at the blue-haired girl beside him.

Did you pick up this kid in the depths of the ruined city?

In terms of age, I should call you a child

The corners of the puppet girl's mouth twitched slightly, but she quickly returned to her usual indifferent expression, she carefully lifted the sports jacket with her hand tucked into her sleeves, sat down on a small stool with her legs, and then lowered the hem of the tracksuit and covered her knees and ankles with a wide coat to avoid being noticed by her unusual joints.

In fact, it's still a little far from the depths! Elizabeth didn't care that she was wearing a skirt, and sat on the bench with a big grin, if it was true, it should be the marginal area, and I was trying to catch some jumping insects, but it turned out that she was being attacked by the jumping insects there and was being chased, so I just

Then she told her about the experience of meeting Zhao Xida and how she came here, and added at the end: There was not much wind today, and the location she was in at the edge was in the edge area, and she did not go deep into the woods, so she should not be infected with fungal spores floating out of the woods.

As she spoke, she was still dismembering the corpse of the theracha with a kitchen knife, and in a few words the grinth-like skin of the jerboa was peeled off, and then she began to cut the flesh.

It's hard to say, the village chief shook his head when he heard this, and seemed to be a little speechless.

Elizabeth didn't stop what she was doing, and expertly cut off a slice of tenderloin and responded: What's wrong?

After much deliberation, the village chief decided to tell the truth, but in fact, a strange illness had recently appeared in the village.

Strange condition? What kind of pathologies? Are there new variants of Cordyceps? Elizabeth suddenly became interested, the knife in her hand shook and cut into the air, the knife flashed, and almost scratched the second pillar that came to deliver the spice, so frightened that the latter shrank his neck suddenly.

The village chief glanced at her, and seemed to have long been accustomed to her reaction: we call this disease mushroom disease, which is a bit similar to Cordyceps, but it is only a little similar in some characteristics, and Cordyceps is difficult to detect in the early and middle stages, and at the end of the disease, things will grow on the head, but Cordyceps disease will grow grass in the end, and mushroom disease will eventually grow clusters of mushrooms on the patient's head

But unlike Cordyceps, these people with mushrooms on their heads, as well as other animals, will not be gradually controlled like Cordyceps, but their temperament will change drastically, and a usually kind and docile creature will become like a mad beast, attacking everything that can be seen

There have been several cases of mushroom disease in the village, and Mr. Fujino and I suspect that mushroom disease may be related to cordyceps, or that some fungal spores have mutated, causing it to lose its ability to control its body, and it has become a type of mushroom disease that can change human temperament

Elizabeth listened attentively, her expression gradually changed from the previous excitement to seriousness, and after listening to the other party's narration, she asked a serious question.

Those mushrooms you are talking about, is it delicious?
