Chapter 358: Noodles and Pickles

The sun spreads its brilliant seeds, boundless and cloudless.

Just looking at the sky like this, you would never think it is the end of the world. Green plants are growing vigorously on the stone mountain, and the air is filled with the fresh scent of plants.

Luo Yunjin was planting a batch of newly successfully cultivated yogurt fruit and milk fruit seedlings in the orchard. She was a little anxious and looked worried.

"Yun Jinjin, how long will we have to do this?" The tabby cat boy wiped the sweat from his forehead, and a hint of fatigue appeared in his pure cat eyes.

The leopard cat boy is shoveling the soil, full of energy. He is wearing a white apron with dots of mud scattered on it.

Under a huge apple tree, little Axun was lying on a soft blanket, sleeping soundly. From time to time, he stretched out his chubby paws to scratch his belly, and his mouth gurgled, as if he was talking in his sleep.

Luo Yunjin placed the fruit tree seedling in the hole dug by the leopard cat boy, then slowly gathered the soil, sprinkled some water, and used his supernatural power to make the fruit tree take root in the soil.

Both yogurt fruit and milk fruit seedlings grow slowly and need to be soothed with supernatural powers every day. It takes ten days for them to mature.

Unlike ordinary fruit trees, it can grow, bloom and bear fruit in an instant as long as she wants.

The more difficult it is to cultivate, the more precious the fruit tree variety is, and the more difficult it is to bring it to maturity.

Such fruit trees grow slowly and cannot be maintained by ordinary planting-type psychics. They have certain requirements for soil and water sources.

Luo Yunjin touched the leaves of the sapling.

She was busy all morning as she planted all the fruit trees and vegetable seeds she had brought back from the trip.

The tabby cat boy and the ocelot boy have been busy digging a hole.

At noon, Zhong Lingmei would come over to deliver food. Her cooking skills had improved greatly during this period, and she had her own unique insights on the use of sauces.

Lunch was egg custard, braised chicken legs, stir-fried lettuce, spicy rice crust, and loofah soup.

Dessert was a strawberry milkshake and a fruit platter.

The spicy sauce used for braised chicken legs is exclusively developed by Zhong Lingmei, and is covered with chopped chili peppers. The chicken legs are from pheasant, and are as big as two adult fists. Because they have been marinated in advance, they are very fragrant. The fresh meat is soaked in soup, which is very tasty and not dry at all.

Zhong Lingmei also specially prepared fried dried fish for the tabby cat and leopard cat, adding just a little bit of salt, which made them crispy and fragrant.

The cat boys turned directly into their cat prototypes and feasted on the food.

"It's light, but also healthy." Luo Yunjin picked up a piece of seasonal vegetables with chopsticks. They were indeed vegetables she grew. She liked to eat vegetables with high water content.

"I deliberately controlled the amount of oil and salt. The lettuce is very fragrant and it is overflowing in the vegetable garden." Zhong Lingmei was very happy that her dishes were appreciated by Luo Yunjin.

It's so nice to sit under the shade of a tree and eat and drink an iced milkshake.

Ah Xun was still eating rice porridge, staring at the fragrant little clothes on his body.

The temperature will rise in the afternoon, and it is easy to get heatstroke even if there is shade. There is no cool breeze and the air is scorching hot.

They usually work only in the morning.

But other people with special abilities need to practice their abilities. They need to endure the scorching heat and the scorching sun. Many people get tanned in a day and their clothes are soaked with sweat.

Zhong Lingmei and Xiao Choujue would deliver a batch of iced mung bean soup or iced fruit every hour to help them cool down.

Under such intense training, many people with special abilities lost several kilograms in just a few days, and their energy consumption exceeded their intake.

It is very easy to lose weight using this method. You will become thin and dark and unrecognizable in a short time.

In the glass house, Luo Yunjin was spreading the quilt. The air conditioner was set to the lowest temperature. She sprayed a little water on the furniture to force cooling.

Even though the trees outside blocked most of the sunlight, the hot weather still made the glass scorching hot. If you cracked an egg on it, it would be fried.

Fortunately there is air conditioning, otherwise it would be really hot and unbearable.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the temperature was over 50 degrees.

If you continue training in such high temperatures, you could easily catch fire.

Therefore, the break time is from 2pm to 5pm.

Further training began at 5:10, when it was already dark and the temperature was slowly dropping.

It can be said that you can experience four seasons in one day.

In such extreme weather, if there are no planting and water-related ability users to keep the soil moist and full of vitality at all times, the crops will easily dry up and die.

This period of time is the busiest time for water-based psychics on Stone Mountain. Due to the lack of water in the air, it is very difficult for everyone to condense water. Psychics below the fifth level can hardly condense much water.

In order to maintain the water supply of the entire Stone Mountain, high-level ice-type ability users also joined in the water supply.

It is precisely because all the superpowers of different attributes perform their respective duties that the entire stone mountain can maintain balance.

This is something that a dirt mountain cannot compare to.

The temperature on the dirt hill is not even at its highest in the afternoon, and even though many water-based psychics have gathered here, it is still not enough to supply water to the plants on the hill.

Many plants on the outermost edge are killed by the sun every day.

Shen Junxie's worries were not unreasonable, but he had to abandon the crops on the outermost circle, otherwise the plants in the inner circle would also be affected.

Whenever the temperature reaches its highest point, no one wants to go out and can only stay in the house.

Those water-based psychics also risked heatstroke to condense and store water. Compared to the stone mountain, the earth mountain still had a big problem in managing psychics.

However, the entire Haicheng is already a relatively peaceful large gathering place for survivors, and there are still many bases and safe zones to protect from the scorching sun.

The lightning barrier around the stone mountain also blocks the loss of water elements, making it easier for high-level water-based ability users to condense water sources.

"So, there are still a large number of survivors approaching us?" Duan Ya stared at the green spots of light coming from all directions on the screen in some disbelief, occasionally mixed with two or three small red dots.

"Well, the number may be far more than that. I can only detect within a range of 300 kilometers." Qi Chi said seriously.

"You've seen it before. Many houses have been built around Haicheng, so the night market has extended its business hours. It used to be only five hours, but now it's extended to the entire night. There are too many people coming to buy things. After all, we offer large quantities and cheap prices." Xiao Wangba said. He is now in charge of the night market at the foot of Stone Mountain, and he likes this job very much.

The small hotel at the foot of the mountain was also overcrowded, and some survivors even bought a year's stay at one time. Duan Ya and Qian Yuanfeng had no choice but to expand the hotel and even opened a branch near the night market.

It can be said that the daily energy consumption on the mountain depends on these crystal cores.

Currently, the number of crystal cores on the entire stone mountain is enough to provide power for everyone on the mountain for 20 years.

Zombies are already rare now. Low-level zombies have either become extinct or have been upgraded to high-level zombies.

Most high-level zombies are more cunning and will disguise themselves as humans to blend into the ranks of survivors, making them impossible to distinguish using ordinary means.

Looking at the moving light spots on the screen, Zhong Lingmei felt her scalp tingling.

Because there were too many survivors, the area outside Haicheng was almost completely filled with scattered houses, blocking the road. The entire Haicheng was surrounded, making travel very troublesome.

Especially in the past two days, since the Stone Mountain was closed, the number of survivors has increased.

Although Tushan occupied all the extra stalls in the night market, they simply could not provide enough supplies for trading.

There are many survivors who cannot buy supplies.

The night market was bustling with noise at this moment, and many small stalls were looted. Those who had not exchanged for supplies were waiting anxiously, and everyone felt very uncomfortable.

Luo Yunjin was in the emo mood at this time.

She was originally planning to drive around for a couple of laps, but ended up seeing clusters of buildings outside Haicheng. She had only been out for a month, and there were more and more people?

The tabby boy drove tirelessly. He drove the RV in flight mode and went very fast, but after more than an hour, he could still see the houses below.

Many bases even moved directly to nearby areas, with the names of the bases written on signs outside the doors, which looked very simple.

Although Qi Chi had already informed her in advance, she was still a little bit unbelievable and felt extremely complicated.

"Why are these houses in such a mess?" The leopard cat boy looked at the colorful houses below with a headache.

This is a disaster for people with trypophobia.

There seems to be a natural dividing line outside the housing cluster. It is barren and there is not a single blade of grass. It is gradually becoming a desert.

It's just like the desert outside Jincheng, with nothing and flying sand all over the sky.

And a hurricane is gradually forming, which is very dangerous.

No wonder so many survivors are evacuating. It turns out the climate has become so bad.

Can humans really survive in such an environment?

After walking for a while, Luo Yunjin didn't want to go any further. She became extremely anxious. The climate here even affected her mood.

It's outrageous.

The RV started driving back. Seeing a stall selling pancakes on the street, Luo Yunjin urged the tabby boy to pull the car to the side.

It seems to be an old flatbread, filled with various spicy pickles. After being smoked in an oven, it exudes a rich aroma and crispy smoky flavor.

You can smell the burnt aroma of the bread, and the whole street is filled with this smell, attracting many cash-strapped passers-by.

Although it is located in a poor area, many people are attracted by the fragrance.

Some people just held the big black steamed bun in their hands, took a deep breath, and then ate the hard bun in big mouthfuls.

"How much are you selling this cake?" The exquisite RV appeared in the gloomy alley, looking out of place.

The boss was a middle-aged woman wearing a headscarf. She was flipping the pancakes. She was wearing gloves and her movements were quick.

"One original pancake, one fourth-level crystal core. Add eggs, sausages or seasonings, and you'll get an extra third-level crystal core." She spoke briskly, looking at Luo Yunjin's face expressionlessly.

The survivors on this street seemed numb, but they were much better than the psychics in the Nan Ya safe zone before. At least one could see the desire for life in their eyes.

"Then I want five pancakes, all with seasoning." In fact, Luo Yunjin was mainly looking for seasoning, and the ingredients for the pancakes were available on the Stone Mountain.

The smell of the seasonings just heated up will really make you linger in your dreams.

This spice tastes good no matter what kind of bread it is put in.

After getting the cake wrapped in white paper, Luo Yunjin took a bite.

The pancake is crispier than expected, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, with a thick filling inside.

You can eat shredded cucumber, chili sauce, shredded potatoes, and chopped pickled bacon.

It's not particularly delicious, but it's definitely pretty good. In the end times, this woman can make such a cake with simple equipment and not-so-fresh ingredients. Her craftsmanship is very good.

"It's delicious. You also put crushed peanuts in it? It smells very good." Luo Yunjin gave a fair evaluation.

She gave one to the tabby cat boy and the leopard cat boy in the car, and took the remaining two back for Zhong Lingmei and the others to try.

Maybe they can make such a flavor themselves.

"As long as you like it, I actually have pickled vegetables here, but they are not easy to sell, so they are packed in small jars." The woman said in a flat tone. She took out two pickles in canned fruit bottles from under the stove.

After unscrewing the bottle cap, you can smell the salty and fragrant smell of the pickles inside, which is magical.

It doesn’t smell as stinky as ordinary pickles. It has a fragrant and salty smell that goes well with rice.

"I don't have much of this kind of pickles left. One fifth-level crystal core for each bottle."

Luo Yunjin is not short of crystal cores. In fact, many fruits on the mountain can be sold at very high prices if they are taken out individually. A watermelon put on the auction house is worth at least a sixth-level crystal core.

She bought two bottles.

"I think you can consider setting up a stall at the night market at the foot of Stone Mountain. There are many people with special abilities there, and they are all willing to buy. There are still quite a few stalls left." Luo Yunjin introduced.

"It's too far, and I can't work the night shift due to health reasons. I also have to take care of the children at home. I'm very grateful that I was able to sell five cakes and pickles today."

"You're welcome. If you have any ideas, you can come."

The RV slowly drove away. Just a hundred meters after it drove away, the woman who was originally standing outside the door suddenly stopped moving. Then she hurriedly moved the stove back to the house behind her and closed the door tightly.

"Why did she suddenly close the door?" The leopard cat boy had been lying by the window looking back.

Not only the women, but people in other houses also hid in their houses, as if they had seen a flood or a beast.

The RV slowly rose into the air, and from the air it was clear that the doors of these houses were closed, not to avoid the high temperature.

They all hid in the house.

It was not until we reached the base near Haicheng that we could see people sitting in the shade at their doorsteps, fanning themselves.

It forms a sharp contrast.

As soon as he returned to Stone Mountain, Luo Yunjin told Qi Chi about this strange discovery and asked him to help mobilize the surveillance records.

"Because of the Reapers."

"?"

"A kind of high-level zombie. Recently, several high-level zombies have been wandering outside Haicheng. They disguise themselves as humans and will run over to chat up any survivors they see on the road. One of them can cause hallucinations in people. They have kidnapped many survivors." Qi Chi explained.

"Then no one cares? There are so many high-level psychics nearby, why would these zombies capture people?"

"Play with it, treat it as a toy." Qi Chi's eyes dimmed.

"Because it's far away from here, and there have only been incidents involving survivors on the periphery, we didn't bother with it. Besides, those zombies are very smart, so it's not easy to catch them."

Luo Yunjin was silent for a moment. "Indeed, Sea City has now extended too far."
