"Alright! Don't be sad, Xiao Lei. We can just fix it up again!"
Ye Ning really couldn't bear to see a tough guy shed tears; she simply couldn't comment on that scene.
"I've been planting for so long, and it wasn't easy to get all these vegetable plots ready. I've already recorded half of the data, and it's almost time to finish..." Lei Siming became more and more heartbroken as he spoke.
Actually, Ye Ning also misses those fresh cucumbers, tomatoes, strawberries, blueberries...
"What a pity, those take a long time to grow!" Wang Ma added from the side.
"Alright, Aunt Wang, stop talking!" Ye Ning quickly interrupted.
"Sister Ye Ning, could I move the vegetable garden back into the shelter?" Lei Siming asked, her eyes brimming with tears.
“No way! There’s no place to plant in the shelter.” Ye Ning refused without hesitation.
"Alright! There aren't many zombies around these days, let's refuel and tidy up the vegetable garden properly!"
"Sister Ye Ning! You're so kind!" Lei Siming said, moved.
"Cough cough cough!" Xiao Jingchen cleared his throat as a warning.
Everyone started working together to help clean up the vegetable garden. The first step was to remove all the zombie corpses, which was a huge undertaking.
Last time, because of Xiao Linran's tricks, more than two thousand zombies got into the outer wall.
After being killed by Xiao Jingchen, the pile of zombie corpses inside the wall was as high as a small mountain.
Even if we use an excavator to clear it, it will still take a day or two.
Fortunately, Ye Ning had a spatial ability. She directly stored the zombie's body in her spatial ability, and then took a helicopter with Xiao Jingchen to an open space, where she threw the body out of her spatial ability.
When the helicopter landed in the open space, all the zombies that had been hiding around came out. They stared at the helicopter with predatory eyes and drooling desire.
Ye Ning had no doubt that if they could fly, they would definitely pounce on them without hesitation.
During her return flight, Ye Ning kept seeing survivors waving flags and calling for help, but unfortunately, they were all pounced on by zombies who heard the commotion before they could get close.
The other zombie corpses scattered in other locations were first collected by others and placed in one or two places before Ye Ning stored them in her space.
After half a day of cleaning, all the zombie corpses were finally cleared away.
After clearing away the zombie corpses, the next step was to clear away all the plants that had been planted earlier.
"Miss! Isn't it a waste to pull all of these out?" Wang Ma said regretfully as she pulled out the tomato seedlings that had already blossomed.
"It's a bit of a pity, but these seedlings have already been soaked in zombie bodily fluids. I don't want to eat tomatoes grown with zombie-brand formaldehyde!" Ye Ning felt a chill run down her spine just thinking about it.
"Uh! Let's forget about it then!" Although Aunt Wang and Uncle Liu are usually frugal, they can't afford this.
They still remembered the first time they saw a zombie, its body rotting and swaying with a devilish gait; they thought it was a demon crawling out of hell.
The two of them huddled in a corner and prayed almost the entire night.
Eating things that grow from their flesh and blood might send you to hell.
After cleaning up the contaminated seedlings, the next step is to till the soil.
This time, except for the potatoes and taro near the wall, almost all the seedlings in other places were pulled up.
This time, we were fortunate to have borrowed a few people from the base; they are all very capable workers.
They were a couple and two middle-aged people. They were all very quiet and just kept their heads down and worked. They used to do farm work often when they were at home, so it was something they were very good at.
The preparations are basically complete; the next step is to select seeds and replant them.
"Alright! Xiao Lei, it's all done. Are you not sad now?" Many hands make light work, and Ye Ning didn't expect it to be all cleaned up so quickly.
Looking at the neatly tended vegetable garden, Lei Siming finally smiled through his tears.
"By the way! Are you planning to plant some seeds this time, the same as before?" Ye Ning asked curiously.
“I want to plant some seeds that are different from the ones we planted before. There are still many of the mutated seeds from last time, and I want to try planting other seeds,” Lei Siming said earnestly.
"Besides that, I also want to plant some fruit trees," Lei Siming continued, outlining his plan.
Ye Ning pondered for a moment, "Xiao Lei, planting fruit trees inside the outer wall isn't suitable. If there are zombies lurking inside, you'll be in danger. How about this, you can choose some seeds in the next couple of days, and then we'll discuss what to plant in more detail."
Just like the bustling activity at the shelter these past few days, the base is also incredibly busy.
During this period, under Ye Ning's instructions, the base received many new superhumans. After experiencing the cruelty of zombies, these people would be more dependent on the base that saved them.
Moreover, the base's points system is becoming increasingly sophisticated.
The first batch of superhumans who entered the base successfully accumulated points and brought their families to the shelter.
Everyone has ample opportunity to earn points.
Some are responsible for daily patrols, while others are responsible for maintaining the external power grid. These jobs, which involve a certain degree of danger, have the highest points.
In addition, they can also help build and renovate houses inside.
The original large warehouses were no longer suitable for living in large dormitories as the number of personnel at the base increased.
