The two children had been together since they were in the womb and had never been separated as they grew up. Jiang Wan was definitely not going to be the bad guy. She glanced at the newly appointed father.
Since it was his own suggestion, what reason did she have to say no?
They put Mobo and Mobi into the city's protective shield. Cheng Zhen then gave Song Hui a few more instructions, telling him to hold on and not to let these refugees of unknown origin in.
Song Hui's expression was resolute, and his reply was quite meaningful: "I know that if we let them step into the protective barrier today, it will be impossible to get them out later!"
They have Ω in their hands, and once everything settles down, they can rebuild the forest. At that time, they won't have to worry about oxygen supply, but it will drive the refugees outside even more crazy.
Seeing that he understood, Cheng Zhen didn't say anything more. There were too many people around, so he patted him hard on the shoulder to encourage him, then turned and jumped into the SUV.
Sanhe Town is actually not far from Zhusha Town, but they didn't know the exact direction, so once they were out of sight of the refugees, Cheng Zhen stopped the car and turned to Jiang Xiaoxin, asking gently:
"Xin Xin, how far can your current sensory abilities reach?"
Jiang Xiaoxin was just a three-year-old baby and didn't have much of a concept of distance. She leaned against the car window and looked out for a while, then pointed to a hill in front of her and said, "Let's go there."
She sensed it again, not entirely sure, and said, "That's it, there's a TV tower over there."
Cheng Zhen looked up and saw that the hilltop was only about two hundred meters away horizontally from here, which was really... not far at all!
If they went in the wrong direction from the beginning, when will they ever find sisal and bring it back?
Cheng Zhen couldn't help but feel annoyed. How could he have been so stupid as to overestimate the strength of a three-year-old?!
Jiang Xiaoshu frowned and asked, "Didn't I always drag you and me to train our superpowers? How come your superpower range is only this small?"
He can now control three times that distance!
Jiang Xiaoxin shrugged, her small shoulders shaking with a helpless expression: "I don't know either."
Everyone was speechless for a moment. What was going on with them forcibly relying on a three-year-old child?
It's wrong in the first place, isn't it?
Jiang Wan sighed, racked her brains, and asked, "I remember there's a river that flows through Xiangcheng from Sanhe Town, right?"
She gestured in the direction of Xiangcheng with her hand: "If that's the case, shouldn't we go that way to look?"
Cheng Zhen had already turned the car around. That was his idea too. He would find the river first and then follow it upstream. He should be able to find Sanhe Town soon.
Jiang Xiaoxin suddenly pointed in the direction they were heading and shouted, "Mom, this is the wrong direction!"
"How could that be?" Yu Fen, standing on the roof of the car, replied, "I can already see that great river."
"But Sanhe Town isn't in this direction."
Jiang Xiaoxin pointed in another direction and said, "I asked the plants to find out the information, and they said Sanhe Town is over there!"
Cheng Zhen glanced at it and estimated that the direction she was pointing to was at a 45-degree angle to the direction they were going. Although the difference didn't seem that big at first glance, it would be much more than a few hundred meters over a long distance.
Cheng Zhen was willing to believe her, but he was worried about the mutated creatures: "How did Xin Xin manage to get information from the mutated plants? They've already mutated, could she be lying to you on purpose?"
Jiang Xiaoxin was taken aback, clearly not having considered this question, and her face showed a conflicted expression.
After a long pause, he muttered, "I don't know either. They answered all the questions I asked them before, and they didn't lie to me."
Yu Fen sighed: "Boss, do we really have to believe what those mutated plants say?"
Cheng Zhen was also unwilling to believe it, but if he explicitly rejected Jiang Xiaoxin's suggestion, what kind of harm would it cause to this budding superhuman?
He couldn't imagine it.
Finally, a decision was made: "Let's go in this direction, cross this mountain, and see what happens. If they're lying to us, we'll change direction immediately, okay?"
Jiang Xiaoxin didn't make a fuss and nodded obediently, "Mmm!"
But she was actually very nervous; her face was tense the whole time, and you could tell she was constantly confirming information with the mutated plants.
They drove along the winding mountain road, climbed up to the mountainside, and looked down from the other side of the mountain. They saw a large county town with tall buildings, which looked quite large.
Jiang Wan spotted the landmark of Sanhe Town at a glance: three deep rivers converge in the center of the town and then diverge in different directions.
She exclaimed with delight, "It's Sanhe Town!"
Although Yu Fen and Cheng Zhen had never been here before, they had no doubts once they saw such a landmark river.
But he became increasingly curious about Jiang Xiaoxin's abilities: how could she actually control mutated plants for her own purposes?
Because of the thick snow, the mountain road was extremely slippery. Even with snow chains on his tires, it didn't help much. The further down the mountain the car went, the more slippery it became, and several times it almost slid off the road and fell down.
Cheng Zhen gripped the steering wheel firmly and said to Fen, "This won't work. Try using light energy to clear the snow."
Yu Fen leaned out of the window and grabbed the support on the roof of the car to steady himself. It was his first time using the light shockwave to sweep snow, but fortunately it worked. One of them swept the snow while the other moved forward, and they made it down the mountain smoothly.
But just as they reached the foot of the mountain, Jiang Xiaoxin suddenly knocked on the car window and said to Yu Fen, "Uncle Yu, come in quickly, or zombies will pull you up and bite you."
Yu Fen was startled by the terrifying words she spoke so casually. In that moment of distraction, a zombie suddenly rushed out from the mountain and headed straight for him.
"Wow!"
Yu Fen jolted awake, unleashing a beam of light that repelled the zombies, then pounded on the car window: "Open the window! Open the window!"
"Quick! Get in!" Cheng Zhen rolled down the car window and stepped on the gas, speeding forward.
Looking in the rearview mirror, I saw a whole line of zombie monkeys following behind me!
Holy crap!
When did these things arrive?
Even Cheng Zhen's purification ability couldn't stop them?
Jiang Xiaoshu leaned against the back window and activated their purification abilities, which kept all the zombies out.
Yu Fen, still shaken, couldn't help but ask, "Little Xin Xin, did you have to be so scary? Next time something like this happens, could you please let me know in advance?"
Jiang Xiaoxin nodded obediently and smiled, revealing her teeth: "Okay."
When she lowered her eyelids and met her brother's gaze, a mischievous smile appeared in her eyes.
