Chapter 186 Thank you Yang Zengyue
As they walked, Yang Zengyue once again taught the technique of sensing danger through the air.
After this period of training, Jiuxiao and the others have been able to judge the direction of danger by the smell in the air.
This outing made them realize more deeply the importance of this skill.
The first thing Yang Zengyue did to discover the monsters was that the smell in the air suddenly changed.
Even in a deep sleep, she did not wake up immediately. Such sensitivity can give them more chances of survival when a crisis comes.
As long as they master this skill and are more careful, they can detect dangers far away from them.
In this case, listening becomes less important.
But it is also indispensable.
The main reason for blocking their ears now is to prevent the ferocious beasts from suddenly going crazy and roaring loudly, which they cannot resist with their current strength.
There were six people in the group, with Yang Zengyue leading the way and Luo Haobai following behind. They slid quickly among the various plants. After they passed by, the strange plants would automatically erase their traces.
The reason why they dared to walk among the strange plants was because Yang Zengyue was there, and the strange plants did not dare to extend their vines to them.
Bai Zheng patrolled the sky and when he found the location of the ferocious beast, he told Yang Zengyue on the ground.
In order to reduce unnecessary trouble, Yang Zengyue led his men to avoid these ferocious beasts.
She was worried that the people who passed by last night would follow their whereabouts.
Although she erased them all, it is not ruled out that some people with extraordinary talents can detect the faint scent in the air.
She never looks down on anyone.
The arrogant will not survive long in the last days.
What's more, now that the reason for the end of the world is known, Yang Zengyue will not underestimate anyone.
Always be vigilant and be skeptical of any unfamiliar psychics who appear.
Because the other party was human like them, Yang Zengyue felt that these people would mingle among the survivors of Zhongwei.
When they were still ten miles away from Yunmang Mountain, Yang Zengyue stopped and said to the others, "There are still ten miles to go. I want to test your maximum speed. Wait, everyone, go all out."
Luo Haobai and his companions immediately became alert.
They also don't know their own limits, having never tested them since gaining their powers.
It feels a bit cool to run fast in this place full of obstacles?
"Are you ready?" Yang Zengyue turned and asked the others.
Jiuxiao nodded.
"Then, let's start and feel the power of the wind." Yang Zengyue took the lead and ran away.
With the help of the power of the wind, her figure instantly disappeared from Jiuxiao and the others' sight.
Jiuxiao and his companions immediately followed.
He ran as fast as he could, using up all his strength, sweating profusely.
The five people could barely keep up with Yang Zengyue's pace. This was the first time they used their speed ability to run fast.
The alien plant took the initiative to make way for them, and returned to its original state after they passed.
Yang Zengyue was waiting for them in front.
After Luo Haobai and the others caught up, Yang Zengyue looked at the time. It was faster than she expected, which showed that they had made great progress.
Seeing Yang Zengyue's smile, Jiuxiao and the others, although exhausted and out of breath, felt it was worth it.
"Rest for ten minutes, then we'll go straight into Yunmang Mountain."
After stopping and walking along the way and avoiding many places where ferocious beasts gathered, Yang Zengyue and his four companions finally arrived at Yunmang Mountain before dusk the next day.
Before entering the base, Yang Zengyue observed outside for a long time.
Bai Zheng was also hovering above the base. After Yang Zengyue smelled the human scent in the air, the heavy stone in his heart finally fell.
Bai Zheng didn't notice anything unusual in the base. After diving down, he returned to Yang Zengyue.
After seeing Bai Zheng, Shi Rongchuan immediately went to the gate of the base and waited.
The six of them walked straight to the gate of the base. Luo Haobai shouted loudly to the survivors guarding the city wall, explaining their identities and why they came to find Shi Rongchuan.
Soon, Shi Rongchuan and Shi Baigu appeared on the city wall.
After seeing Jiuxiao, Shi Baigu felt that the heavy burden on his heart for the past month finally disappeared.
Shi Rongchuan asked someone to lower the hanging basket, intending to pull Yang Zengyue and the others up.
Unexpectedly, Yang Zengyue held Jiuxiao in his right hand, and with a jump, he used the wall to leap up in a few steps.
Her action left Shi Rongchuan stunned.
This, this lady is not going to hide her strength anymore?
The wall was more than ten meters high, and with his current strength, he couldn't climb it even if he jumped.
Shi Rongchuan suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. He knew that there was something called jealousy growing wildly in his heart.
This is very bad.
Yang Zengyue noticed his thoughts.
Fortunately, he was just jealous and quickly made up his mind to train harder, so Yang Zengyue didn't care.
Shi Rongchuan went up to talk to Jiuxiao and expressed his gratitude for his reminder.
He lowered his head in shame and said, "Master Jiu, Rongchuan knows his mistake."
For the first time, he admitted his mistake to Jiuxiao in such a humble and modest tone.
Jiuxiao patted Shi Rongchuan on the shoulder and said, "It's good that you can figure it out. Remember, look at the world with a humble heart. Don't just rely on your own subjective consciousness to conclude that something doesn't exist, or just assume it's fake. This will be detrimental to your future cultivation."
It's rare for Jiuxiao to say such a long speech.
After exchanging greetings with Shi Rongchuan and Shi Baigu, Yang Zengyue introduced Luo Haobai, Jiang Rong, Fan Jinggang and Zhou Qingying to Shi Baigu.
Shi Rongchuan brought them to their current residence and told them about the situation at the base.
Yang Zengyue didn't expect that there were only about a thousand humans surviving here.
Originally there were more than this number of people, but some people with special abilities thought they had special abilities and were fearless. They went out on a snowy day and were injured by the snow and could not be rescued.
After discovering that snow was harmful to the survivors, Shi Rongchuan warned the people with special abilities.
But they didn't listen.
Yang Zengyue knew what these people were thinking.
Do you think you are invincible just because you have superpowers, and will you still take other people seriously?
They were seeking their own death, and Shi Rongchuan did not stop them. It was not until the psychics died one after another that these people stopped making trouble.
After discovering the unusual weather, Shi Rongchuan, Shi Baigu, and Xu Yunzhao came here with some capable and reliable people from the Shi family.
They hid in the warehouse that Yang Zengyue told them about, and only came to the base after enduring the pain brought by their superpowers.
I found that the place was almost deserted.
There aren't many people left, and there aren't many supplies left.
Fortunately, the basic facilities of the base have been completed and they can move in directly.
Before leaving, Yang Zengyue left a letter for Shi Baigu, instructing her to wait until strange phenomena appeared and she discovered changes in her body before opening it.
Thanks to the things she left behind, they were able to get through their period of confusion.
They put all the stuff in the warehouse into the space, leaving only a part outside.
The supplies Yang Zengyue gave them were enough for several thousand people to survive for half a year.
When Shi Rongchuan saw those things, he felt mixed emotions.
How can a person prepare for a rainy day to this extent?
Although these were once prepared by the Yan family, Yang Zengyue saw what would happen in the future and left a way out for the Shi family.
Shi Baigu kept holding Yang Zengyue's hand, and the gratitude in his heart was beyond words.
Yang Zengyue felt embarrassed by her praise: "Aunt Shi, my master asked me to make these, you don't have to be so polite."
This was her master's wish, and she would naturally fulfill it and save the Shi family.
She didn't know about it in her previous life, so she didn't go to look for Shi's family. Later, when she found out, there was no trace of Shi's family.
I guess it's a way to make up for it.
Jiuxiao asked Shi Rongchuan about the situation of the psychics in the base, and Shi Rongchuan answered fluently.
He found that after the baptism of the end of the world, Shi Rongchuan's thoughts had changed a lot.
Jiuxiao: "I'm glad you changed your mind. Otherwise, the road ahead might be even more difficult for you."
Shi Rongchuan knew that the world would definitely undergo even greater changes in the future.
Judging from the man-eating plants and the numerous and huge animals that had never been seen before, these survivors were just lucky to be alive.
Whether you can survive in the future depends on your own strength.
So after the end of the world, Shi Rongchuan only rested for four hours a day, and used the rest of the time to improve his strength.
He is currently the person with the highest ability level in the base, followed by Xu Yunzhao.
He gradually became the most influential person in the base.
The survivors who were initially unconvinced are now convinced by him.
He knew this was thanks to the letter left by Yang Zengyue.
In the letter, Yang Zengyue talked about strange plants, ferocious beasts, and how to deal with these unfamiliar species.
She also anticipated how to improve their own strength and the problems they would face at the base, and provided solutions.
Shi Rongchuan discovered that Yang Zengyue was always ahead of them.
When I saw her again this time, my thoughts became complicated.
I have nothing but admiration and a hint of jealousy towards her.
Yang Zengyue walked around the base and asked Shi Rongchuan, "Didn't anyone from the Yan family come here?"
Shi Rongchuan shook his head. "No one from the Yan family has been here since the end of the world. It's as if they've disappeared."
Yan Jinxi is dead.
Because Tianyuan was unable to return to Nanyuan alive to remove the forbidden technique for him.
Just like that, he used up the last bit of energy in the Tianyuan medicine, and was extremely conscious when he died.
There were many things that were not explained in time.
Ah Xing gave Yan Hongning the letter left by Yan Jinxi and asked them to make preparations early.
Although Yan Hongning knew that his father had used part of the family's funds to build a shelter, he did not quite believe that a disaster would really come.
So I didn’t take it very seriously.
He sent people to Yunmang Mountain to check the progress of the project. Given his current situation in Beining, it was impossible for him to stay in Nanyuan all the time.
So Yan Lingxuan was asked to handle the base affairs. Seeing that the project was almost finished and the Yan family was short of funds recently, Yan Lingxuan originally planned to sell the project, but the location was too remote and no one was willing to buy it.
He didn't want to invest any more money, so he didn't do the final finishing work on the project.
When he found the warehouse location marked by Yan Jinxi, he discovered that there was nothing there.
I was stunned.
Those were the goods that the Yan family spent a huge amount of money to stockpile, how come they were all gone!
Yan Lingxuan told his father Yan Hongning about the warehouse incident. After Yan Hongning found out, he collapsed in his seat.
I originally thought that I could use these supplies to turn the situation around, but now that even these are gone, the Yan family is really finished.
The value of those materials is such that the Yan family can no longer afford them.
The end of the world came before the date they knew, and the Yan family should not have been fully prepared. In addition, Yan Jinxi, who was in charge of this matter, had already died, so even if there were survivors from the Yan family, there would not be many.
Thinking of this, Yang Zengyue told Shi Rongchuan not to be careless.
Because she didn't know whether Tianyuan had any backup plan. Although Tianyuan had been dealt with by her, it was hard to say whether he had arranged a retreat for the Yan family before.
The base was deserted and depressed.
If it weren't for a few people popping out from time to time, one would think this was an abandoned city.
The base's wall is about one kilometer away from the residential area, which gives them some buffer time in case any ferocious beasts enter.
The Yan family had taken every aspect into consideration when designing this place.
A well was dug and the water pipes were basically connected, but the power supply facilities were not installed in time, so Yan Lingxuan gave up.
However, after Shi Rongchuan and the others came in, they fixed the power supply equipment here.
However, there was not enough diesel to generate electricity, so they all relied on fire for lighting.
As soon as Yang Zengyue and the others sat down, it was dark. Fires were burning in the open space in front of the residence. The survivors were boiling water in pots to prepare their own dinner.
Here, you have to fend for yourself.
Shi Rongchuan did not provide much food, so the survivors looked for opportunities to go out and find food for themselves.
Birds, beasts, and plants have all disappeared or mutated, and they have no idea what to eat.
It took a long time to confirm that there were several edible plants and animals.
Their dinner was porridge made from these plants and rice.
Something is better than nothing.
Yang Zengyue did not take out his own food, but gave Shi Rongchuan some plant seeds, asking him to find a way to farm and become self-sufficient after the ice and snow melted.
Shi Rongchuan asked, "Where did those missing supplies go?"
Yang Zengyue shook her head. She couldn't answer this question.
She didn't understand it in her past life or this life.
I have a guess in this life, maybe I went to the world of my ancestors' rivals?
However, this is not clear now.
Shi Baigu looked at the pile of plant seeds in the space, including rice, wheat, corn, soybeans, peanuts, potatoes and so on.
With these seeds, they no longer have to worry about food and clothing.
However, there may not be many people in the base who know how to farm.
Yang Zengyue also gave Shi Baigu some books on planting techniques, agricultural encyclopedias, etc.
She also has her own planting experience. With this, they will have some harvest if they follow the planting experience.
She couldn't stay here forever.
It was still very cold after nightfall, so Shi Baigu took Yang Zengyue to the room to rest.
At this time, some people with special abilities in the base had a heated argument because Shi Rongchuan brought back six people.
Some people think that they should be taken in. We are all human beings, and there are so few survivors now, so we should stick together for warmth.
Some people thought that Yang Zengyue and the other six came to steal their food.
There wasn't much food in the base to begin with.
The supplies were all collected by everyone during their recent trips out. These six people came to steal their rations without paying anything, and they disagreed.
One of them spoke up, "Didn't you notice that these six people didn't touch our food at all during dinner tonight?"
