Early the next morning, Gu Xi and Wei Heng drove a big truck towards the wilderness more than fifty miles northeast of the camp.

Because of lack of money, Gu Xi reluctantly gave up her tomatoes, and the two only received free farming machinery and a bag of sweet potato seeds, as well as a few large containers used as temporary houses, and set off with dry food in their arms.

The road was more than 50 miles, but because of the overgrown weeds, the road conditions were so bad that the big truck bumped for more than two hours to reach its destination.

After arriving at the place, Gu Xi jumped out of the truck, looked at the alien plants all over the surrounding mountains, and took a deep breath of satisfaction.

From now on, this mountain is hers!

Gu Xi found that this was really a good place, sparsely populated, with mountains, water, and the hundred acres of land allocated to her by the state.

Obviously, she is very satisfied with the environment here.

Wei Heng glanced at her slender little arms and legs, and silently began to unload the goods.

The little girl is too weak, and he has to do all this rough work......

After Wei Heng took the initiative to take over the work of selecting a site and building a house, Gu Xi took the cloth bag and the big firewood knife he handed over, thought about it, and walked towards the small hillside not far away.

Among the wild plants all over the mountains, Gu Xi chose the target very easily.

She used to go out on missions and had a wealth of experience in surviving in the wild.

The alien plant she chose this time was an edible wild vegetable before the end of the world.

Gu Xi raised her hand, and the little green sprouts trembled out of her fingertips, and then hooked up with the alien plant she had chosen at a very fast speed......

The whole process of skimming was very smooth. Those strange and violent energies were quickly transformed into her own abilities.

But Gu Xi didn't plunder the energy in this alien plant at once, she deliberately left more than half of it.

Then he raised his hand and pinched off a young leaf, put it in his mouth, and felt it carefully for a while before he began to chew slowly.

Sure enough, at the beginning, the strange energy lurking in the young leaves did not move at all.

But as the young leaves were chewed and destroyed, the unknown weird energy that could even be called Anfen's well-behaved when it was plundered before quickly came to life, and it began to attack Gu Xi, trying to pollute and erode her ability......

Gu Xi used his abilities to suppress these weird and violent energies, and on the other hand, he looked at the mutated plants all over the mountains in front of him, thoughtful.

Perhaps, the great mutation of animals and plants thirty years ago was not a disorderly mutation, but a kind of ...... Orderly evolution?

Just as pre-apocalyptic plants would convert carbon dioxide into oxygen through photosynthesis; Now, after the mutation, these plants are also suppressing this unknown weird and violent energy in some special way?

Or rather...... Seal?

In short, while these mutated plants are still alive, or they are still in a state of growth, this strange and violent energy is sealed in the body of the plant, thus losing some kind of activity.

And once these mutated plants lose their vitality and become dead things, they also lose the effect that can be said to be suppressed or sealed, then the strange energy lurking in the bodies of these plants will be completely revived.

And these energies, after entering the human body, have a certain aggression.

Because the supernatural person has the ability to protect the body, the physical fitness is also relatively strong, and this strange energy will attack their ability first after entering the supernatural person's body...... That's why Uncle Zhou's ability looks so weird.

And ordinary people don't have a supernatural body, and this weird energy will directly destroy a certain bodily function of the human body...... Therefore, almost all of the ordinary people in the camp are yellow and thin, and they look malnourished or poisoned.

Of course, this destruction may be slow and requires a certain amount of accumulation.

But when this destruction accumulates to a certain extent and completely erupts, humans will completely lose their minds and become bloodthirsty monsters.

And for those mutated plants, once a certain balance is broken, when they can no longer suppress or seal that strange energy...... Then, the malignant transformation has occurred.

This guess seems bold and absurd, but Gu Xi is inexplicably a little sure in his heart.

But to test this hypothesis, some other evidence is needed.

Gu Xi thought of mutant animals.

As far as she knew, after the second great mutation, plants were no longer aggressive, but those mutated animals were almost no different from before the mutation.

It's just that there is still a lot of weird energy in their bodies.

And after the end of the world, not all mutated animals are bloodthirsty and aggressive.

Some of them have undergone some changes in size and habits, but as before the end of the world, they do not actively attack humans, and even become more docile; Others have become smarter; Of course, there are also those who become bloodthirsty and violent......

It's a pity that this neighborhood was just screened by the army two days ago, and Gu Xi sensed it for a long time, but he couldn't find a mutant animal, so he had to give up for the time being.

But if, if this speculation of hers is true, then the question is - where does this strange energy come from?

Almost in the next second, Gu Xi had the answer in his heart - the zombie virus.

The law of conservation of energy holds true at all times.

Thirty years ago, after the zombies were completely wiped out, the zombie virus did not actually disappear, but was transformed into this weird and violent energy through some unknown way.

Immediately after, as nature evolved itself, the second great mutation of plants and animals began.

The mutated plant has the ability to suppress the strange energy of the seal.

So, this strange energy, which suddenly appears in the bodies of animals and plants, is actually just a self-help behavior of nature?

Gu Xi was stunned by this thought that suddenly popped into his mind.

The little green sprouts came out of nowhere, wrapped around her fingertips, and the two small young leaves at the top looked a little more vibrant.

Gu Xi lowered her eyes and looked at the little green sprout, she was thinking, if all this is true, then what about her? And what role does she play in it?

Her ability was born at the same time as the zombie virus, which is very special, and even those researchers at the Ability Research Institute back then actually didn't really figure out what her ability was!

Thirty years ago, my friends only saw that she cut off the head of the Zombie Emperor with a knife, but they didn't know that before that, her little green shoots had secretly swept away the energy crystal nucleus in the Zombie Emperor's brain.

But because the energy of that crystal nucleus was too huge, the little green bud couldn't be completely digested and absorbed in a short period of time, so it had to be temporarily sealed in her space.

Gu Xi originally planned at that time that after returning to the base, she would slowly absorb the energy in that crystal nucleus...... But what do you think, the night she returned to the base, she was planted in a glass of wine.

That's 30 years.

When she woke up again, there was a problem with her ability, the space was gone, and the crystal nucleus from the Zombie Emperor didn't know what happened to her in the end......

There are too many unknown mysteries, and each one is more troublesome than the other.

Gu Xi let out a long sigh and chose to leave all these troubles behind for the time being.

At present, the most important thing is to plant the 100 acres of land allocated to her by the state.

The people take food as the sky, and eating is the most important thing.

Gu Xi stroked the little green sprouts on his fingertips.

Treasure, it's up to you whether we can live a good life in the future.

Thinking of the various food videos he had watched before the end of the world, Gu Xi suddenly felt that life was full of hope!

Little Green Sprout was also very excited, and it sprang out of her fingertips in an instant...... Ten minutes later, Gu Xi withdrew his ability.

Her current ability is still too weak, although she has just barely broken through the third level through plunder, but the little green sprout has obviously eaten up, and she is still very anthropomorphic and burped.

Gu Xi: "......"

By the time she went back, Wei Heng had already packed up a few container houses, connected the drinking water filtration device, and was fiddling with the farming machine she brought.

I have to say that Wei Heng is very good at picking places.

The place he chose is backed by mountains and forests, there is a stream not far away, the container is backed by mountains and water, not to mention the safety and security, it is convenient to get water leaves, and there are large areas of wasteland on the periphery......

These wastelands were supposed to be farmland before the end of the world, and as long as they were cleared, crops could be planted quickly.

Wei Heng checked the description of the farming machine and said to Gu Xi: "I have also cleaned up your room, you go and see, is there anything else to change......

It's not too far from the camp, but they can't go back to the camp every day.

He is a big man, and he has been used to living in the wilderness all these years, but Gu Xi is a girl's house, and he still has to have a place to shelter from the wind and rain.

So before leaving, Wei Heng was ruthless, so he secretly took out a loan to buy a few large containers, and also privately exchanged a little decoration with others.

There is no way, he is too poor now to afford to repair the house, so he can only live like this.

The container is so big that you can see it at a glance.

Gu Xi stood at the door and watched for a while, then was silent again: she now seriously suspected that there was actually a little girl living in Wei Heng's heart.

This incomparable girl's heart......

Outside, Wei Heng tinkered with the manual for a while and successfully started the farming machine.

Gu Xi thought about it, walked to a big stone next to him and sat down, and watched quietly.

This kind of farming machine that integrates weeding, turning soil, fertilizing, sprinkling, harvesting, etc., is indeed very powerful, and Wei Heng only took half an hour to clear out a few acres of land around the house.

In addition, deep ploughing work was carried out.

The wild plants that originally occupied the land were ruthlessly crushed by the machine, turned into nutrients, and reintegrated into the earth.

But Gu Xi sensed that deep underground, the roots of those deeply buried plants were still active, and soon a new round of turf competition began......

If the root systems of these plants are not completely strangled, then the land that has just been cleared will soon be occupied by them again.

Wei Heng obviously knew this truth as well.

He turned over and jumped off the farming machine, lifted the corner of his clothes and wiped the sweat on his forehead, and walked towards Gu Xi: "For the time being, there is only one such thing, there is something wrong with my earth-based ability, and the rest of the work ......"

He was just about to say that he had asked another earth-based ability in the camp, and the other party would come over in the afternoon to help completely strangle the plant roots deep underground with the earth-based ability, when he saw Gu Xi stand up, take a few steps forward and say, "...... I got it. ”

Are you coming?

Before Wei Heng could react, he saw some familiar little green shoots rushing out of Gu Xi's fingertips, and then burrowed into the field he had just cleared......

Wei Heng: "......!!!"

He's an earth-based ability, so he shouldn't be too familiar with the fluctuations of earth-based abilities. But Gu Xi, isn't she a wood-based powerhouse? How could it be......

"Gu Xi, are you ...... Is it a dual-line Adept? Wei Heng thought of a possibility.

"Hmm." Gu Xi nodded vaguely.

Wei Heng's mood was a little complicated: the reason why he offered to partner up with Gu Xi to farm was originally to take care of this little girl who was picked up by him from the ruins.

I didn't expect ......

The civil and engineering dual-line ability is a natural farmer.
