"Xiao Leng, why are you looking at me like that?" Bai Zhengxuan touched his face. "Have you noticed that I'm getting younger and younger lately?"
After absorbing the crystal core, he felt younger and younger, and he could eat two braised pork knuckles in one meal!
He's almost back to his peak condition from his youth.
Leng Yebai's eyes flickered, and his gaze fell on Bai Zhengxuan's hair. "Grandpa, I think your hair has gotten a bit darker."
Bai Zhengxuan is already seventy years old, with gray hair and faint traces of ash.
If you look closely, the roots of the hair are a little bit grayer than the rest.
"Is there?"
Bai Zhengxuan tugged at the wrinkles on his face. He also felt that he was getting younger and younger, although it wasn't visible on the outside, he could still feel it himself.
Their physical condition is much better than before the apocalypse.
They're even more resilient than before the apocalypse!
Yes, there are.
Leng Yebai smiled gently, holding the chopsticks horizontally in front of him. In his line of sight, the chopsticks were positioned directly across Bai Zhengxuan's nose.
From the upper part of the chopsticks, you can see Bai Zhengxuan's eyes and eyebrows.
His eyebrows were sparse and white, but based on their distribution, one could vaguely tell that the old man was once a handsome man with thick eyebrows when he was young.
Leng Yebai glanced at Liu Jing without showing any emotion, and saw her dark pupils, which were similar to Bai Xizhu's.
Leng Yebai was slightly taken aback. Could there really be such a coincidence in the world?
"What's wrong?"
Bai Xizhu nudged Leng Yebai, who was lost in thought, and felt that he had been acting strangely ever since he came back.
Leng Yebai gently shook his head, picked up a steamed bun for Bai Xizhu, and placed it in Bai Xizhu's bowl.
His deep eyes flickered slightly, his cold face filled with doubt.
Does time travel really exist in this world?
But what happened to Xiaozhu and him is also inexplicable!
Leng Yebai rubbed his temples, looking at Bai Xizhu, unsure how to voice his guess.
The two people never took off their masks, so their identities could not be confirmed.
Or perhaps they have other unspeakable reasons for not revealing their identities.
Leng Yebai stuffed the wild vegetable bun into his mouth with a fierce expression, pondering what to do.
On the other side.
The two people, a man and a woman wearing masks, walked casually in one direction for a while before stopping.
In the distance, black smoke could be seen slowly rising from near the air-raid shelter.
The two casually found a place to sit down, staring blankly in the direction of the air-raid shelter.
They are like sculptures from ancient times, exuding a strong sense of vicissitude.
What flashed through those two pairs of eyes was a fleeting sorrow and a desolation that didn't belong here.
Although he looks like a middle-aged man in his thirties, he exudes a sense of historical depth that belongs to the elderly.
After a long while, the woman wearing a mask spoke.
"Old man, how about we stay here?"
As the woman spoke, her eyes were filled with deep reluctance.
How can we bear to part after such a long separation?
If they go back, they will still be living alone, without sons, daughters-in-law, grandchildren, or grandchildren.
The man gently shook his head. "We don't belong here. Once we've finished what we need to do and found Cheng Huang, we should leave."
The woman paused for a moment, then her heart began to fill with anticipation again.
I hope they never find Cheng Huang.
...
After breakfast, Village Chief Li pulled Bai Zhengxuan aside to chat about things related to the apocalypse.
The villagers had never left the village, so they wanted to hear Bai Zhengxuan talk about what was happening outside.
The faces of that couple kept appearing in Bai Xizhu's mind. Even though they were wearing masks, Bai Xizhu always felt that they were very nice and had a sense of closeness to her.
I was absent-minded all morning.
"Sis, how about we go somewhere else to have fun?"
Bai Yifan ran up to Bai Xizhu with a grin and rubbed his fingers together in a lewd manner.
"Where to?" Bai Xizhu raised an eyebrow.
What is my younger brother trying to do?
"I want to go to Yangliu Village!" Bai Yifan grinned.
Yangliu Village is very close to Baiyang Village. After walking about one kilometer, you will pass a large pit. Yangliu Village is located at the edge of the pit.
There was clay in the pit. When they were kids, Bai Xizhu and Bai Yifan used to dig in the pit together during winter and summer vacations.
That clay is very resilient and doesn't stick to your hands. The children in Baiyang Village and Yangliu Village generally enjoy digging for clay.
Bai Xizhu glanced at the children peeking out of the air-raid shelter and a slight smile appeared on her lips.
Let's go!
Bai Xizhu nodded in agreement.
"yeah!"
The children cheered, but after being scolded by the adults, they covered their mouths and hurriedly hid in the air-raid shelter.
The children were still quite afraid of Bai Xizhu. Don't be fooled by her innocent and harmless appearance. Back in the day, she was a tyrant in Baiyang Village, and she single-handedly made the village's little bully cry!
Bai Yifan followed behind Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai with a grin. After saying goodbye to his father, he headed towards Yangliu Village.
Clay is much more fun than regular modeling clay. Not to mention the kids wanting to play with it, he's itching to get his hands on it!
Leng Yebai and Bai Xizhu walked hand in hand in front, while Bai Yifan followed silently behind Bai Xizhu, holding her left hand with his right.
They were very perceptive and deliberately lagged behind by a distance.
Leng Yebai was very satisfied with this and decided to make an extra cup of milk powder for Bai Yifan when he cooked!
The village has a considerable amount of land per person. After walking for a while, we didn't encounter many zombies, or even any mutated animals.
Bai Xizhu found it strange. There should be quite a few cats and dogs in the village. Even if there were no mutated cats or dogs, why hadn't she encountered any other mutated animals?
The three of them quickly covered the one-kilometer distance.
Before me was a large pit, with water barely covering the bottom.
The pit was covered with signs of excavation by excavators, and it was easy to walk down into the pit.
The clay is visible to the naked eye, and it is different from ordinary soil. It is denser and more resilient.
"Go get it!"
Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai sat on the edge of the pit, hands on their hips, looking completely relaxed.
Bai Yifan knew his own position clearly; it was impossible for him to ask his gentle, considerate, beautiful, and lovely older sister to dig mud.
So he carefully made his way down the uneven path, pulled out the dagger strapped to his leg, and began to dig.
The clay was difficult to dig because it was too sticky, but Bai Yifan was very patient and dug it out little by little.
He thought he could win because he could play with clay with his friends when he got home!
"Woof woof—"
The sound of a dog barking rang out.
Bai Yifan shuddered subconsciously, glanced up at the reliable Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai, and then confidently resumed digging the clay.
Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai stood at the edge of the pit and saw a small, cute teddy bear running towards them from afar.
Behind Teddy, a burly man wielding a kitchen knife chased after him relentlessly.
