Chapter 258 Food Problem (First Update)
The middle-aged woman was also awakening. Although she was old and her aptitude was not good, her will to survive and her perseverance were very strong. After Fang Yuxin gave her a stream of pure wood energy, she used the vigorous vitality brought by the wood energy to grit her teeth and survive, and successfully awakened to become a superpower.
But the process was too painful. She felt as if her body was being torn apart bit by bit and then recast again. Every minute and every second was torture, but the whole process lasted for two hours!
The awakening of superpowers varies from person to person, and the duration is not the same. The worse the body is, the longer it will last, because there are too many places to repair. Because most of the energy is used to repair the deficiencies of the body, their aptitude after awakening will naturally not be good, unless they can be absorbed by Yuanjing to improve their aptitude.
Although Fang Yuxin admired these two people very much, he had already done his best by giving them a stream of pure wood energy, so it was naturally impossible for him to give them the precious Yuan Crystal.
Unless, they can find the Yuan Crystal themselves.
The woman's nephew was driving the car. When he saw from the rearview mirror that her face was gradually turning from pale to a healthy color, his hands holding the steering wheel shook and the car immediately veered out at an angle, almost causing a car accident and hitting the car next to it.
Fortunately, he turned the car around quickly and narrowly avoided the accident.
The young man in the next car was so scared that his heart almost jumped out of his chest. He couldn't help but curse at him: "Zhao Liang! How the hell do you drive! If you want to die, just say so! Don't drag others down with you!"
The young man named Zhao Liang quickly apologized: "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I wasn't paying attention just now! It wasn't intentional! Brother Qian, calm down." He also knew that he almost caused a car accident just now, so his attitude was quite polite and he didn't get angry directly.
The young man opposite curled his lips and did not continue to argue with him. After all, they used to live together and were neighbors. Now it was the end of the world, and it was not appropriate to make a fuss over such a small thing. If the two psychics in front knew about it, they would probably abandon them.
So things soon calmed down. The old man glanced at the car next door and through the broken window, he saw the middle-aged woman sitting up, leaning against the back of the chair and breathing heavily. Although her face was covered in sweat and her hair was wet and stuck to her face, she looked much better and no longer had the "dead face" she had before.
The old man said to his grandson, "Okay, stop talking. It looks like your Aunt Zhao has survived, which is a good thing."
Hearing this, the young man turned his head in astonishment and said, "Is this true? This is too unbelievable! She is already so old... can she also awaken?"
This was not a pleasant thing to say, and the old man was so angry that he slapped him on the head and lectured him, "Okay! Stop talking nonsense! It's enough for you to know about this matter, don't talk nonsense! Also, remember to respect those two! Don't be like that kid Zhao Liang and do something stupid!"
At this point, the old man thought of the previous scene and couldn't help shaking his head, thinking that the boy was really spoiled. He was so old and even went to college, how could he be so ignorant!
The young man laughed, and glanced at the car next to him with a look of disdain. Although he had never been to college, he was not stupid! How could he offend those two? Only Zhao Liang, that idiot, had eyes and could not see anything!
They didn't encounter much trouble along the way. Occasionally, zombies or mutant birds appeared, but they were easily dealt with by Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye. Mutated plants never appeared, and it was not known whether there were few of them or they didn't dare to come out.
Soon, another hour passed and it was 6:30 in the afternoon. It was not yet dark, but Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye were hungry.
They were superpowers, they ate a lot and digested quickly. The two did not want to put themselves in a difficult position, so they parked the car on the side of the road and prepared to get some food.
As soon as they stopped, everyone else naturally stopped as well, but they didn't dare to get too close. They kept a distance and watched cautiously.
With outsiders present, Fang Yuxin couldn't just take out fresh ingredients from the space, so he said to Bai Ye: "I'll go see if there are any edible wild vegetables nearby, you..."
She wanted to say "You stay here", but before she could finish her words, Bai Ye said: "I'll go with you." He didn't want to find out Fang Yuxin's secret. After all, he had been into the Qingmu Spiritual Mansion. Although he had only stayed in the main hall, he knew that the main hall couldn't be the only place there. Otherwise, how to explain the whereabouts of the ginseng spirit?
Although Fang Yuxin didn't take him to other places, she didn't avoid him too much. Bai Ye was not a fool, so he knew there were other places. He knew that Fang Yuxin's search for wild vegetables was just an excuse to get fresh ingredients from the space. This kind of thing was not easy to do in front of outsiders. Even if it was taken from the car, it was difficult to explain where the ingredients came from.
But if she pretended to look for it nearby and then brought it back, others would not be suspicious.
Bai Ye admired Fang Yuxin's caution, but it was the end of the world after all. There were not only zombies but also mutated plants and animals. Bai Ye was really worried about Fang Yuxin going out alone.
Fang Yuxin didn't want to agree at first. After all, even if Bai Ye guessed some things, he had no evidence. But if she took out fresh ingredients in front of him, it would be tantamount to confessing herself.
Bai Ye saw her hesitation and felt a little hurt. He could tell that Fang Yuxin didn't trust him enough. However, he still said frankly: "The situation nearby is unclear. I'm worried about you going out alone. Let me go with you."
Fang Yuxin met his sincere gaze, as if she could see the deep affection in it, and she couldn't say no. She hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.
Before leaving, Fang Yuxin specially summoned Lan Ruo to guard the car. Firstly, it was to prevent someone from plotting evil while they were away, and secondly, if zombies came, Lan Ruo could at least deal with them for a while.
When Lan Ruo came out, the people who were watching were shocked. They all recognized that Lan Ruo was a mutant plant and were afraid of being hurt by it.
Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye did not explain specifically. They had done their best to save people before. As long as these people were smart, they would know what to do and what not to do. Except for the little girl, everyone else was an adult. The two of them did not intend to be free babysitters and bodyguards for them.
In the end of the world, if you want to survive, you can only rely on yourself. If you continue to be cowardly, the final result will only be self-destruction. The two of them didn't mind these people following them for protection, but they would never do anything unnecessary.
Lan Ruo did not summon an avatar, and the main body coiled lazily like a snake into a small hill, resting on the roof of the car. Fang Yuxin touched it gently, gave a few instructions through voice transmission, and prepared to go for a walk around the area with Bai Ye.
The others were frightened by Lan Ruo, and when they saw them leaving, their faces suddenly changed. The brave ones mustered up their courage and stepped forward a few steps to ask, "Where are you two going?"
Bai Ye's attitude was not bad, but it was also very cold: "Let's go look for some wild vegetables nearby, you can help yourself."
When he said this, the faces of those people became even worse. They had come all the way here, but they had relied on the protection of Bai Ye and Fang Yuxin to avoid any more accidents. If zombies or mutant creatures came when these two left, they would be in danger!
Someone immediately said, "If you two don't have anything to eat, we have some bread here, you can take it back." In fact, they were all hungry. To be exact, they had not eaten enough since the end of the world. The bread and cakes they had eaten before only gave them a little strength, but they were not full at all, so they did not dare to eat more.
In order to survive, they didn't care about the little food in their hands and took the initiative to ask Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye to take it back. As long as the two didn't leave, they would be fine even if they were hungry!
Fang Yuxin laughed and said, "Since we gave it to you, just keep it. We still have food in our hands. We just want to find some fresh wild vegetables. You don't have to worry about it."
After she finished speaking, she didn't give these people a chance to speak, and quickly pulled Bai Ye away.
There was a forest next to the highway, and the two jumped off the road and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Seeing this, the faces of the others turned unhappy, but no one dared to follow.
Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye dared to go into the woods to look for wild vegetables, but these people didn’t dare.
Liu Zhenglin held his daughter in his arms, watching everyone else's reactions, and silently shook his head. The little girl had woken up, and she curiously looked at Lan Ruo, who was coiled like a snake not far away, and whispered to Liu Zhenglin, "Dad, look, what is that? It's so beautiful!"
After all, children don't understand anything. She doesn't know why the adults look so strange. In her eyes, Lan Ruo's whole body is crystal clear, just like the white jade locket she always wears around her neck. She is very beautiful.
Liu Zhenglin had completely recovered by now. He felt the strange energy surging in his body, and he felt as if he had endless strength.
He smiled and touched his daughter's head, whispering softly, "If Huanhuan likes it, Daddy will help you find one in the future, okay?"
The little girl's eyes lit up immediately, but she shook her head soon and said obediently, "Huanhuan doesn't want anything. Huanhuan only wants daddy. Daddy, are you cured?"
Liu Zhenglin felt his heart melt as he listened to her soft voice. He kissed his daughter on the face and said confidently, "Don't worry, Huanhuan. Dad has recovered from his illness. Dad will always be with Huanhuan."
The little girl's eyes became brighter, and she smiled brightly, saying, "Huanhuan will always be with Daddy, too!"
At this time, the others suddenly realized that Liu Zhenglin and Zhao Yan, who were infected with the zombie virus, had survived! Does this mean that both of them have awakened to become superpowers?
In an instant, the way others looked at them changed.
