Cheng Zhen opened the portal to the space-time area and sent most of the city guards back first. The rest of the men were responsible for driving the convoy back. Zhang Yu had to go back to the Second Battalion to report the situation, while Pingjiang stayed behind to hold the line.
Inside the RV, the two little ones were sharing an apple. Jiang Xiaoshu stopped training his superpowers. Through this period of training, he felt that he had made great progress. Cheng Zhen took the time to test him, and he was already able to control his abilities from more than fifteen meters away.
So at this moment, he was holding a comic book and reading it. His mother had put it in the tree hole space and gave it to him because she saw that he had been bored these past two days.
Little Jiang Xiaoxin, with her big, round eyes wide open, wandered around outside, glancing at Cheng Zhen every now and then.
Finally, after glancing over there for what seemed like the umpteenth time, she suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Ah!"
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Wan and Jiang Xiaoshu looked up at her at the same time, and then followed her gaze to see Cheng Zhen, who was exhausted and kneeling on one knee with a lightsaber stuck in the ground. He was holding onto the lightsaber to keep from falling.
It seems that the superpower has been overused and can't hold on any longer.
Jiang Wan glanced at it, remaining calm. It was true, there were over a hundred people, and he was the only one to send them back.
Does he see himself as a god or a robot?
Suddenly, the silly little sister poked her brother's arm and asked, "Brother, aren't you going down?"
"Why should I go down?" Jiang Xiaoshu buried herself back in her comic book, without even looking up.
Jiang Xiaoxin frowned slightly and asked in confusion, "Weren't you very sorry for him before, and even gave him the crystals you dug up?"
“That’s not out of pity for him. He taught me how to enhance my abilities, so it’s just a matter of reciprocity.”
"Oh..." Jiang Xiaoxin hesitated, wondering if she should go down there herself and give the two crystals she had dug up to the strange uncle.
When he looked up, the strange man was gone!
Huh?
He won't die so soon, will he?
Just as she was about to shout out in alarm, she heard someone knock on the RV from the outside.
Jiang Wan opened the door, and Cheng Zhen came over, leaning on his lightsaber as a cane: "Can you give me a ride?"
He looked weak and tired, and he smiled slightly at Jiang Wan. Where was his usual domineering and murderous aura?
Jiang Xiaoxin was stunned, thinking that the adult world was really complicated!
Jiang Wan thought for a moment, then let him get in the car. She then took out two crystals from the tree hole space and placed them in front of him: "These two were dug by Xin Xin and Xiao Shu respectively."
After saying that, she went to the driver's seat and started driving.
Although the two crystals weren't of very good quality, and although he actually had crystals of even better quality on him, these were the ones his two kids had dug up themselves.
Without saying a word, he used it immediately, and then, feeling the aura that calmed the restless factors in his body, he leaned back in his seat and gradually fell asleep.
He was woken up by someone staring at him; even when he was asleep, he could feel a pair of eyes staring intently at him without blinking.
He suddenly opened his eyes and saw the silly girl staring wide-eyed in surprise because she didn't have time to hide. Then she covered her eyes with her hands, pretending that she hadn't seen anything.
"No, no! I didn't see anything!"
Cheng Zhen was secretly pleased. It was better for his girl to be curious about him than to ignore him.
"Okay, Xin Xin didn't look at anything."
He gently echoed her, trying his best to appear gentle and approachable, and reached out to pat her head.
Jiang Xiaoxin was not comfortable with being touched by a stranger, let alone such an intimate touch, so she moved her small body aside and dodged away.
Cheng Zhen sighed slightly as his hands were empty, then moved to the passenger seat and sat down to accompany Jiang Wan as she drove.
Behind them, the two little ones huddled together and whispered to each other.
Why are you staring at him? Aren't you ashamed?
Han Xinxin felt really ashamed when she was caught, so she pouted and said, "I just want to know why he's so amazing and can teach you how to enhance your superpowers!"
Jiang Xiaoshu glanced at the simple-minded girl a couple more times and asked, "Do you also want to enhance your superpowers?"
Honest Xin Xin immediately nodded obediently: "Yes!"
She no longer wanted to be protected by her brother. She wanted to be able to control her powers at will and listen to the thoughts of the plants around her, instead of having their thoughts flood her brain and almost making her faint!
Jiang Xiaoshu said, "I'll teach you, but you're not allowed to get close to him."
That silly little sister is too stupid; she can't outmaneuver Cheng Zhen, that big bad wolf!
No matter who teaches her, as long as it enhances her superpowers, Han Xinxin is immediately happy!
The convoy returned to the camp without any obstacles. There weren't many people in the camp, and even fewer superhumans outside the protective shield who were killing mutated monsters. Cheng Zhen sensed something was wrong and went to find Lao Liu as soon as he arrived at the camp.
Jiang Wan drove the RV back to the dormitory courtyard, took the twins back to their room to shower and rest, and once they were asleep, she immediately went out. She walked around the camp area and then saw the 31 dawn redwood trees by the pond where water hyacinths were planted behind the camp.
Old Liu has already had them planted. There is a little oxygen here, which they can breathe, so although the metasequoia trees don't look very healthy, they are all still alive.
The pond contains nutrient solution, and the water hyacinth is growing very well.
Jiang Wan walked around for a while and then returned to her dormitory.
She was quite surprised to run into Wu Xuan outside the dormitory.
When Wu Xuan saw her, he lowered his head and turned to leave, but she called out to him, "Stop! What do you want?"
She doesn't care about his situation, but she won't allow him to bother or affect Jiang Xiaoxin.
Wu Xuan stood ramrod straight, his head bowed, and spoke in a low but firm voice: "I've come to apologize to Xin Xin and Xiao Shu."
"No need." Jiang Wan could sense the sincerity of a six-year-old, but that didn't mean she could accept him continuing to approach the twins. "You can go now."
After saying that, she turned around and gracefully passed by him.
Just as they passed each other, Wu Xuan, who had been keeping his head down, suddenly raised it, looked at her, and said softly and quickly, "The Hundred-Petal Grass is useful."
After saying that, he ran away quickly without waiting for her to react.
So he made a special trip to tell her that the Hundred-Petal Grass is useful.
Is it related to the plague in the city?
Jiang Wan couldn't understand it. What she cared about more at the moment was the matter of the optics expert. She had to find such a person to solve the root problem so that the plants could resume photosynthesis!
Only then could she begin to propagate and cultivate more dawn redwood trees!
Only in this way can the oxygen crisis in the oxygen-deficient apocalypse be fundamentally solved!
As for the plague, she didn't think it was a big problem. After all, medicine is very advanced now, and there are plenty of medical and virology researchers in Xiangcheng. It's just a matter of time before the plague is conquered.
This matter needs to be addressed to Cheng Zhen, but just as she was about to leave, she heard the camp's bugle sound urgently: "Quick! Something's happened at the North Gate! Quick! Emergency reinforcements!"
