The third room was a guest room. When Jiang Yao and the others entered, everything usable inside had been looted.
Jiang Yao noticed a full-length mirror in the corner and slowly approached it. She gently ran her fingers along the edge of the mirror, carefully examining its material, but something still felt off.
Wait, there's a pair of eyes in the mirror. Jiang Yao turned around abruptly.
Seeing Jiang Yao's actions, Xiao Mu thought she had discovered something, so he walked over and looked in the mirror as well.
Xiao Mu also sensed something was wrong. Upon closer inspection, he discovered that there was a pair of eyes in the mirror looking at the person looking in the mirror.
Xiao Mu and Jiang Yao exchanged a glance and began searching for the source of the anger.
It turned out that there was a fierce-looking cat in the corner, watching everyone walk around the room without moving, observing their actions.
You wouldn't even notice it if you didn't look in a mirror.
Meow...
A meow made everyone in the room stop what they were doing. They looked at each other, puzzled. It was a cat.
This cat wasn't afraid of people at all. Even after leaving the house, Jiang Yao still felt that something was off.
Back in the car, the refreshing coolness was incredibly comforting.
Shen Zhijie felt like he was about to be fully recharged!
Since the incident of someone going missing, everyone has basically been sleeping in the car every day.
Besides the stars in the night sky, the only sounds at night on the farm are the chirping of insects.
If there were no natural disasters, you would be surrounded by blue skies, white clouds, green mountains, and clear waters—everything would be so ordinary, beautiful, real, and simple.
Unfortunately, the river has dried up, and the plants have withered and died due to lack of water...
What a scene it would be if there were fish in the river and frogs croaking at night.
I wonder when I'll see such a peaceful scene again.
Seeing that Shen Zhijie had already fallen asleep, Jiang Yao quietly went to the storage cabinet and filled it with food for a few days. Xiao Mu watched Jiang Yao's actions without saying anything.
He was secretly thinking about when he could reach the AAC district, as he wanted to give Jiang Yao a special gift.
After tidying up the storage cabinet, Jiang Yao filled all the empty oil drums on the ground and looked at Xiao Mu, indicating that he should fill the tank tomorrow.
Jiang Yao only felt safe when she saw the fuel tank was full.
After preparing everything, Jiang Yao had just lain down on the bed when she felt a faint rustling sound coming from above the car.
Jiang Yao was a little confused. Wasn't the car parked in an open space?
There shouldn't be the sound of tree branches sliding off the car roof!
Xiao Mu also heard the rustling sound at this moment. He got up and looked outside but saw nothing. Jiang Yao looked at the rear window of the car and saw a leaf with sharp serrations.
The leaves seemed to be swaying in the wind, moving back and forth.
Xiao Mu saw that Jiang Yao seemed to have discovered something outside the window, so he quietly walked over and saw the leaves, which made him frown.
They had seen this leaf in the farmhouse before.
Jiang Yao turned on all the car lights, and Shen Zhijie was stunned by the sight before him. There were mysterious plants everywhere outside, and the plants seemed to have their own consciousness, completely covering the cars.
Because of the plants covering the car, Jiang Yao and the others turned on all the car lights and no one noticed.
Jiang Yao had some doubts, wondering if the plant was deliberately trying to make them see it.
Jiang Yao held the Hou Dao in her hand, held it horizontally in front of her chest, and opened the door. The world outside was lush and green, as if she had accidentally wandered into a deep forest.
The branches of the green plant gently and softly approached Jiang Yao. Shen Zhijie behind her was stunned by the sight before him. Xiao Mu looked at the green plant in front of him and tightened his grip on the flamethrower.
Jiang Yao carefully touched the tips of the green plant's leaves with Hou Dao. The leaf tips curled up shyly like little children.
Looking at the green plants in front of him, Shen Zhijie felt that his understanding had been refreshed once again.
Jiang Yao felt that the green plants didn't seem to be trying to harm them, but rather protecting something, since the entire farm was already covered. If that was the case, then the fact that their car wasn't covered meant that the danger was on the other side of their car. Thinking of this, Jiang Yao quickly closed the door.
Shen Zhijie was startled by this sudden action.
After closing the door, Jiang Yao quickly went to the other side of the car and looked out. Jiang Yao's scalp tingled; it was that monster again.
If they hadn't reacted quickly, they would be having a face-to-face meeting with the monsters outside by now.
Shen Zhijie and Xiao Mu were also startled when they saw the monster outside.
Everyone should have the same idea: how did it get here?
When Jiang Yao looked at the plant, it had already moved away, keeping a certain distance from them.
Ha, so you know you can't fight head-on, what a coward.
The monster circled the RV, as if searching for a way out. None of the people inside dared to make a move, keeping their eyes fixed on the monster outside the door.
The monster did not attack Jiang Yao and the others, as if it was somewhat afraid or hesitant about whether to attack.
As dawn broke, the monster finally left, and Jiang Yao and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
After a night of standoff, it would be a lie to say I wasn't tired.
Outside the car, everyone was already up preparing breakfast. Seeing the bloodstains on the ground, it would be a lie to say they weren't scared. You see, apart from when the car needed to rest, they had been traveling the whole way, trying to avoid that unknown monster.
Now that monsters have appeared on the farm, everyone's hearts are in their throats once again.
After a short rest, Jiang Yao and the others returned to the farmhouse. The plant seemed to be greeting them, swaying a few times.
Looking at the green plants in front of him, Xiao Mu said to Shen Zhijie, "Let's move them to the car and take them with us."
Since they weren't harmed last night, but instead were alerted, it means they're not enemies, but perhaps allies.
"If it doesn't behave when we move it to the car, we'll just burn it."
As if understanding, the green plants rolled their leaves into a ball.
When the others saw Jiang Yao and the others return, they stepped forward and said, "That monster must have been here last night. Look, there are still bloodstains on the ground."
"We want to get going and leave now. When are you ready to leave?"
Shen Zhijie crossed his arms over his chest, thought for a moment, and said, "We're also setting off soon, but we're not going to the military; we're going to the AAC district."
Seeing that everyone was going in different directions, the leading man clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Then let's part ways here, and there will be many more days to come."
After saying goodbye to everyone, Jiang Yao and the others tidied up the car and drove away from the farm.
As the group drove away, no one noticed a cat perched on the roof of the RV.
Inside a military laboratory.
After being taken back to the military, Sang You was sent to Zhao Lao's laboratory without even going to his residence.
Old Zhao handed Sang You a brown paper bag with a red stamp and gestured for him to open it and take a look.
When Sang You saw the contents, a look of shock flashed across his face; the contents had crossed the line of human morality.
If it weren't for this natural disaster, they might still be unaware that MGJ had conducted such heinous experiments here.
