Chapter 132 You Still Want a Future (Part 3)



The next day at the crack of dawn, Jiang Wan got up and, before the twins woke up, went to the back of the camp to see the newly built forest farm.

The so-called forest farm is actually a protective shield for the city, where special light-blocking panels made of Ω are embedded in the city high in the sky to block out "black light".

It's not a large area; it's just the area behind the camp.

Seeing that she was measuring it with her eyes and looked disgusted, Cheng Zhen quickly said, "This Ω is really too rare. There are only a few in Xiangcheng, so the forest farm can only build this one piece."

Jiang Wan laughed, her laughter laced with sarcasm: "This place is so tiny, with no more than a hilltop of vegetation, yet they still went to such lengths to seize the entire outer city camp and drive your two camps out?"

"Have those people in the city lost their minds?"

Her tone was sharp, mostly because she was angry with him, since she caught a terrible cold after going back home!

Unfortunately, we also have two little ones at home with weak immune systems!

Now she has to wear a mask all the time, and she doesn't even dare to take it off when she sleeps, for fear that she might accidentally infect them with the cold virus!

She herself was quite resilient, but the twins were only three years old. In the oxygen-deficient post-apocalyptic world, getting sick was a serious matter!

In the oxygen-deprived post-apocalyptic world, breathing was already difficult enough, and she also had to wear a mask. Only she knew the hardships she endured!

All of this is thanks to this fool!

Cheng Zhen sincerely admitted his mistake: "I'm sorry, I will never do it again, I promise!"

"You want a future?"

"Um... there will always be emergencies, right? I'll definitely let you know in advance next time!"

Cheng Zhen followed her in a nice and gentle manner, but Jiang Wan didn't want to pay attention to him. She took out some cold medicine from the tree hole space, took it with water, and then took a deep breath.

It was probably just her imagination; although all 31 dawn redwood trees had lost their leaves and there was still a pond full of water hyacinths, she could clearly feel that the air quality had improved!

Jiang Wan looked around for a while, then suddenly said, "Come on, a few people, and shovel the snow off this patch of ground!"

She went back to the lab, drew the curtains, and took out the sap droplets from the tree hole and diluted them a hundredfold.

Then take out all the broadleaf golden privet orchids that we dug up earlier and plant them in the cleared snow-covered open space under the dawn redwood tree.

She had someone bring a bucket of water, then secretly dripped a drop of diluted sap from the tree hole into it, and carefully poured it down, ladle by ladle.

Many of Cheng Zhen's subordinates were puzzled and found it unbelievable: "It's the dead of winter! Who plants things in the dead of winter? They'd probably freeze to death before they even came to life!"

"Not necessarily. Look at these dawn redwood trees. They were planted right before it snowed and the temperature dropped, but they're still doing fine, aren't they?"

"That's why Li Siming called these metasequoia trees 'sacred trees'!"

After being glared at by Cheng Zhen, the people who had been talking immediately shut up.

Jiang Wan had already heard this and asked, "Did Li Siming come up with the name 'Divine Tree'?"

Cheng Zhen looked at her, his expression unreadable. Before he could figure out how to explain, she shook her head and said, "He was a good-for-nothing in school, and now he's even swindling people? Tsk..."

In fact, Li Siming simply disagreed with her; he was clearly a member of Professor Qin's faction.

It's not that they're incompetent; if they were truly useless, how could they possibly be in their talent pool?

You should know that among that group of talents, only she and Li Siming were young people who had just graduated not long ago!

However, Cheng Zhen overheard Jiang Wan's dislike for Li Siming, which instantly improved his mood. He no longer cared about those few clueless people who insisted on mentioning Li Siming in front of her, reminding her that there was someone he had sidelined!

He quickly changed the subject with a laugh, asking a silly question: "Should we take some measures to keep warm?"

Jiang Wan glanced at him, then looked at the forest, blinked, and asked, "What's your idea?"

Cheng Zhen said, "There are some, but they are a bit wasteful of manpower and resources... But now that we are in an apocalyptic world with a lack of oxygen, even plants can mutate. It seems... not surprising that they are so resilient that they can be transplanted and survive in the dead of winter, right?"

Jiang Wan looked at him again and nodded: "Yes, what you said makes sense."

The people around looked at each other, somewhat dumbfounded.

Was that meek and mild-mannered man, who was just now like a little lamb, really their usually fierce and ruthless captain, who was like a wolf?

No way?

No way?

Are they seeing things?

Yu Fen straightened his back, coughed, and gave them a look:

No!

You read that right!

This is our captain!

But jokes aside, Jiang Wan wasn't sure if the tree sap would still be useful after being diluted so much, so she quickly returned to the room, dug the twins out of bed, and waited until they finished drinking her milk and were fully awake before asking Jiang Xiaoxin:

"Xinxin, can you do Mommy a favor?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaoxin immediately jumped three feet high!

What she fears most is that her mother will think she is useless and abandon her!

If your mother needs her help in some way, it means she's not a useless or stupid person!

She was determined to become a useful person!

So she immediately and happily replied, "Okay! Okay! Mom, give me the task! I'll definitely complete it well!"

Jiang Wan understood her little psychology a bit, so she patted her head and encouraged her, "Then try to sense the metasequoia forest and see if there are any other plant life forms?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaoxin immediately smiled happily. This was easy; she had practiced it quite well recently!

So he released his supernatural senses and headed straight for the metasequoia forest.

But she was too carefree and unprepared. Before she knew it, she was overwhelmed by the vigorous life force coming towards her and stumbled, almost having her senses bounced back!

Jiang Wan noticed that her face suddenly turned pale and there were beads of sweat on her forehead, so she became worried. Had she encountered any danger?

Jiang Xiaoshu simultaneously released her purification ability, then shook her head at her mother, indicating that there was no danger.

After a while, Jiang Xiaoxin happily reported, "Mom, there are three kinds of plants over there, right? Metasequoia, water hyacinth, and broadleaf golden cherry orchid!"

After she finished speaking, she looked up at me with bright eyes, seeking praise: "Mom, I was right, wasn't I?!"

"That's right! Our Xinxin is awesome!"

If the broadleaf golden privet has shown signs of life, it means that the diluted sap from the tree cavity is also effective!

Jiang Wan breathed a sigh of relief and became happy. She made breakfast for the twins and went to find Cheng Zhen while they ate.

"Give me a few men later, I'll take them to dig up some plants, and you have someone clear all the snow from the forest!"

"It survived?" Cheng Zhen was shocked. What was this treasure in her hand? It was so amazing that it could actually make a plant survive transplantation in the dead of winter!
