Chapter 173 Test
The place where the cry for help came from was actually far away from Youxi, but with her hearing, she felt that it was nearby.
This dense forest should have been a green park. There were remnants of supermarkets and kiosks in the dense forest, as well as fountains, small squares, leisure and fitness facilities and other areas. Probably because there was enough greenery originally, the plants did not occupy all the space after the mutation.
Occasionally, people from the nearby official shelters would go deep into the park to look for the missing supermarkets and kiosks and find usable supplies.
The official shelters were strictly managed and all private fighting was prohibited inside. Therefore, some people would use this huge park as a place to resolve personal hatred.
This is a dilapidated building in a clearing in the forest. It was originally a service station. Half of the wall of the house was squeezed by plants, but fortunately there was still a roof and the second floor was relatively intact.
The girl's clothes were torn in half, and the already old protective clothing on the outside was completely torn into pieces. The collar of her T-shirt was completely torn, and her sports pants were completely separated from her body.
She was curled up there on her side, and her body was trembling because of the exhaustion from desperately resisting. The young woman who was half squatting beside her had no extra clothes to cover her, so she could only pick up the half of the protective clothing on the ground to cover the key parts of the other party.
Not far away, the man who was kicked in the vitals was sweating and gritted his teeth and said: "Why are you meddling in my business! Do you know that she stole things from me before? She deserves it! A bitch like her should be taught a lesson!" It
would have been better if he didn't say anything. As soon as he opened his mouth, the squatting woman became even more angry. She took a few steps forward, raised the iron rod in her hand and hit the other party without thinking: "She stole things and you can bully her! How many of you has she stolen?" You deserve to strip me of my clothes if I touch anything! No wonder, you are usually so timid but today you dare to suggest dispersing!
Your head is between your legs, right? You are still doing such disgusting things outside in this situation! Aren’t you afraid that a centipede will crawl out of the corner and bite you directly from below! Fuck you! Why don’t you take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror, and you still call others a scumbag! ? How can you be as scumbag as you! ? Scumbag! "
Onlookers:...
"Sister Xuefei seems to be particularly irritable today?" The other people scattered around did not dare to step forward for a while.
“You don’t know, this guy has hit a sore spot… When the animals and plants just mutated, Sister Xuefei was not like this at first. She was very gentle and caring… Later, she was betrayed by someone she trusted, and she almost got raped… Fighting and killing are fine, but she can’t stand this kind of thing. The man who almost raped her was later raped by her…”
“Shh… Be gentle, or she will add fuel to the fire…”
…
The furious woman was busy teaching the hateful and mean man a lesson, and she didn’t hear the team members’ muttering at all. Instead, Youxi, who came to the bottom of the building after hearing the noise, heard the conversation.
Youxi:…
Sister Xuefei?
It’s really Zhao Xuefei!
No wonder, the voice sounds so familiar.
In my impression, Zhao Xuefei always wears exquisite makeup, wears the latest model of a light luxury brand, carries a bag worth no less than five figures, and is always dressed meticulously from head to toe, with an elegant smile.
The only time she showed a difference was when they met for the last time. That time she caught her current boyfriend cheating on her, and it took only a moment for her to change from tears to a slap in the face.
After that, she realized that she might not know this cousin very well.
At this moment, Zhao Xuefei, who was fiercely teaching the man a lesson in the dilapidated building, was like a switch was turned on, completely releasing her nature.
Also, a woman who can make up her mind to only eat vegetables and boiled chicken every day to lose weight for several years naturally has a sense of ruthlessness.
She was wearing a half-worn protective suit, and her protective cap had slipped off because of the action of beating the opponent. Her hair was tied casually behind her head, her skin was a little tanned, and the way she held the iron rod to exert force showed that she had received professional training.
"... Zhao Xuefei, you gossip!... Don't think you can be domineering just because you have a backer. You help outsiders to treat the brothers in the team like this... Who will dare to follow you in the future! And you, if you watch the show now and don't help your brothers, she will treat you like this in the future - hey, hey..."
"Brother?! Do you think I will let you stay in the team for a scum like you! Get down in front of me after this beating!"
The more the opponent threatened and cursed, the harder she hit him, and it turned out that she hit too hard and knocked the opponent's teeth out.
The man spat out a mouthful of blood. The people who were watching secretly thought it was not good. It was not because they thought Zhao Xuefei was too heavy-handed, but because in this place with dense plants, blood could easily attract mutated plants and animals.
They hurriedly reminded: "Sister Xuefei, that's enough. It's not safe here!"
Zhao Xuefei hummed, kicked the last time, and prepared to leave.
The other team members also walked to the side of the victim girl, wanting to help her up and take her away together, but the other party dodged in a wolfish way.
Zhao Xuefei understood and was about to ask the team members to strip off the protective clothing of the evil man and temporarily cover the girl, when she heard one of the team members shouting towards the open space downstairs: "Sister Xuefei, what is that?!"
Zhao Xuefei looked out.
Outside, in the empty space that was crowded with plants, there was a silver RV parked. Next to the upward-opening window, there was a piece of cardboard with three big characters written on it: Open for business.
Zhao Xuefei: ...
What the hell?
**
The four-wheeled, eight-seater electric vehicle was slowly moving in front. The girl sitting next to Zhao Xuefei had already put on the new protective clothing they had just exchanged from the "Star House".
They exchanged this for food, although they just wanted to give it a try before exchanging it. Anyway, they had more people and were not afraid of the other party cheating. If he dared to drive away, they would leave him and the car behind.
But in the end, the transaction process was so smooth that the mixed-race boy took the food and directly handed them a new protective clothing.
Zhao Xuefei looked at the silver RV following behind their car through the rearview mirror, her brows knotted. On this island with scarce supplies, what is the other party doing?
"Brother Xiaojun!" she shouted, "What do you think?"
"It's a bit tricky." The man driving the car also frowned. In the current environment, it is not difficult to deal with evildoers, but it is these people who appear out of nowhere and seem to be doing good things that are puzzling.
This is not in line with common sense!
If he has such a car and all kinds of supplies, he would never hang around outside!
This is not telling others that I am living a good life, so everyone come to rob me...
Could it be that the other party is... a psychopath?
In the RV, You Xi could feel the people in the car in front of her looking at her from time to time.
In fact, she had not originally planned to go to the official shelter. The air-raid shelter there was sturdy and the supplies were more sufficient than other shelters where people gathered voluntarily. In her opinion, she did not need to go there for rescue.
But now, someone unexpected has appeared.
She was wearing a fake face, and the validity period had just begun. She didn't want to take off her vest so early. But since she had met the relative her father had been thinking about, she naturally had to find out where the other person lived and what their current situation was.
As for what to do next, she had to observe first, and secondly, she had to look at the other person herself - Zhao Xuefei seemed to be doing well.
The electric car quickly passed through the dense forest and came to the open space outside the official shelter.
Three-meter-high iron nets were erected around the air-raid shelter, with densely packed green plants climbing and hanging on the iron nets, and pink and white spherical flowers can be vaguely seen between the plants.
The climate and soil here are different from those near S City, so many plants are also different.
There are no mutated plants like "spike grass" that cause itching in organisms, but there are some other plants that have special effects after mutation.
For example, this epiphytic plant, originally called "ball orchid", not only grows rapidly after mutation, but once a creature approaches, it will shoot out a stamen from the center of the flower. This stamen not only pierces the skin like a needle, but is also poisonous.
Normally, mutant animals will automatically avoid large patches of hanging "poisonous orchids". Now these plants are planted on the iron mesh and allowed to cover the entire iron mesh, naturally in order to use their special features to resist some mutant reptiles.
Human wisdom should never be underestimated. No matter how bad the external environment becomes, we can always find a way out of adversity.
Youxi did not follow them into the iron mesh. It was official territory, and everyone had to stop and be inspected when entering or leaving. She veered off the road, parked in a cool place with dense vegetation outside the iron mesh, and hung up the sign for business again.
This time, she did not prepare oden, but found a machine that automatically made marshmallows from the Xingwu warehouse.
This seems to be collected in the Acid Rain World. It is one of the tools provided at the party. Just put the sugar grains of different colors in the grid, and then press the switch of the selected shape. After one minute, the beautiful colored cotton candy will be automatically made.
She first made a colorful star cotton candy. After trying it, it was sweet and soft, not greasy at all, and delicious.
So Youxi made cotton candies in the shapes of rabbits, stars, and flowers, respectively, put them in the matching transparent covers, and then lined them up, stuck the bottom of the support rod in the gap of the open car window, and used it as a display product.
Zhao Xuefei, who was not far away: ...
After she sent the girl in, she couldn't suppress her curiosity, and went out of the air-raid shelter again, wanting to find out what the other party was doing.
But in the end, the other party was actually... making cotton candy! ?
There is a conspiracy!
She held the iron rod in her hand and knocked it on her palm from time to time: "There must be a problem."
"Sister Xuefei, how about I go over and take a look?"
"No need." Zhao Xuefei frowned and said seriously, "I'll go by myself."
Ten minutes later-
Zhao Xuefei pulled down her mask and stuffed the second marshmallow into her mouth with a stern face.
The two team members following not far behind her: ...
Youxi leaned against the car window, supporting her chin and looking at the other person. After all, this is someone who has a blood relationship with her. After experiencing all these changes, the past conflicts are nothing.
"Is it delicious?" Youxi looked at the other person and couldn't help laughing. The person who used to not even touch candy now finished two marshmallows in one breath.
"Not bad." Zhao Xuefei looked a little awkward, "You really don't charge? Isn't this a barter? What do you want? Just tell me, I don't want to take advantage of you."
You Xi smiled, "I have everything. Are you a local, or are you here for tourism? Where are your family members?"
Zhao Xuefei looked at the other party warily, but saw that the other party took out a cup of latte coffee from the small refrigerator in the car, first opened the lid and put some ice cubes in it, then took out the whipped cream spray bottle, shook it, squeezed a cream topping on the floating ice cubes, and then took a disposable spoon and handed it to her together with the snow-topped ice latte.
Zhao Xuefei: ...
The iron rod that she had been holding in her right hand warily almost slipped from her fingers.
Latte ice coffee with snow topping!
Help, help...
**
In a room in the official refuge area, the meeting at the long table is coming to an end.
The atmosphere of today's meeting is quite heavy. The fleet they sent to find a seed warehouse near Changcheng on Nanhai Island was wiped out.
It is not a tourist city. There are many factory buildings there. The rainforest has been severely damaged. Unexpectedly, after a major plant mutation, the buildings in the entire city have suffered unimaginable damage.
But now Nanhai Island is isolated from the mainland, and the sea and air routes are extremely difficult. The plants have mutated wildly, and the original farmland nearby has also been severely damaged. They want to re-establish a protected planting area and urgently plant a batch of short-cycle food to make up for the loss.
But they didn't expect that the convoy they sent out would encounter heavy rain and mudslides, resulting in the entire convoy being wiped out.
Zhou Ningyuan pressed his temples and left the conference room. Although he was only responsible for the daily safety issues of the refuge base, his father Zhou Guochen was a management staff member. Now he was worried about food every day, and he looked several years older.
He walked from the conference room towards his room, and met Wu Jun and a few others on the way. He frowned and asked, "Didn't your team go out today? How come you are back already?"
"Oh, boss, there was an accident. Sister Xuefei rescued a girl and brought her back first."
"Where is she?"
Wu Jun and a few others looked at each other. What should they say?
Sister Xuefei went to inquire about the "enemy" and ended up getting caught in the cotton candy and coffee of a mixed-race boy?
