The snow fell for a whole day and night. When I opened the window in the morning, all I could see was a sea of white.
But it's only October now. I wonder how cold it will be in Zhoujiawu, which is located on the mountain, when January comes.
Lin Luo and Yun Shu put on rubber shoes early in the morning and went to Xiaowu Mountain to check on the situation of the stored grain.
The pond was completely frozen, but the fish at the bottom were still alive and kicking. The wild boars, lambs, etc. were also fine. Animals naturally have their own ways to keep warm, which are sometimes much better than humans. But a few chickens still froze to death.
Lin Luo found them one by one, and then Yun Shu picked up Dou Dou and planned to give one to Xiao Hei who came with him. The others were cooked today, so it was no big deal if they froze to death, they could still be eaten.
As for the outside of Xiaowu Mountain, those mutated plants have stronger vitality. It’s nothing. There’s nothing to worry about. I won’t feel sad even if they really die.
Walking in knee-deep snow, Lin Luo and Yun Shu inspected only two mountains and were about to go back, but Xiao Hei suddenly let out a howl and jumped out.
——What did you discover?
As soon as Lin Luo's mental power spread, he knew what was happening ahead.
Six people, dying under the snow.
This place is not close to Zhoujiawu. If Lin Luo doesn't save them, the only outcome will be death.
“Ouch~”
Xiao Hei came back quickly again, holding a shiny little thing in his mouth. Of course, he didn't mean to save people, but this little thing attracted his attention.
Lin Luo lowered his eyes and saw that it was a military emblem that everyone in Hua Country recognized.
Therefore, the identities of those six people are self-evident.
Lin Luo took a few steps forward and used his mental power to "pull" the six people out of the snow.
"Let's go."
They were all frozen unconscious, their lips turning purple. If they didn't hurry up, they would probably be beyond help.
Yun Shu didn't ask any more questions and followed Lin Luo down the mountain quickly. He also knew the meaning of the military emblem and was not surprised by Lin Luo's behavior.
Only Xiao Hei was left. He whimpered and tilted his head. "...Why are you all gone? Want to play a little longer? This white snow looks just like Xiao Bai!"
Zhou Guangzong was stunned for a moment when he suddenly saw six unconscious men, but he quickly realized that compared to Lin Luo and the others, he obviously had rich experience in how to deal with people with frostbite.
After busying themselves with getting hot water, changing clothes, etc., Zhou Guangzong and Lin Luo sat in the living room of the Zhou family, holding some small things they had taken from those people in their hands.
"They? I will be responsible."
Zhou Guangzong was silent for a moment and then suddenly spoke. Six grown men, and they were injured, were a heavy burden on Zhoujiawu. Now it was such bad weather that it was difficult to go out and look for supplies, and they might not even find any.
"Village chief, what are you talking about? Are we going to just ignore it?!" Zhao Tao also recognized these things. The shining military emblems told him that these people had high military ranks.
"That's right! They must be out now to complete a mission, isn't it for us? No matter what, they are still human beings, right?" Granny Yao came in carrying two live chickens. "Kill them and give them some good nourishment. If it's not enough, I have more. We can't let them starve."
"Are those brothers soldiers?" Zhou Mengjie leaned against Lan Yueyin and asked softly, "Will they be okay?"
Lan Yueyin touched Zhou Mengjie's head and said, "It'll be okay. We're here."
"Xiao Meng, are you willing to share some food with them?"
Zhoujiawu has a supply record book, which clearly records everyone's contribution and the supplies they can get. Although Zhou Mengjie is young and has not killed many zombies, her supply reserves are among the top three. After all, everyone needs to drink water.
"I'm willing! Xiao Meng can eat less, and give it all to them." Zhou Mengjie answered without hesitation.
In the hearts of most Chinese people, soldiers are sacred, even a child.
Zhou Guangzong knew more than them, so of course he understood that all soldiers had high moral character, but there were also scum and villains in the army.
But... the one who can possess this will definitely not be you.
Zhou Guangzong held a small badge in his hand. Compared with the shining military emblem, it was inconspicuous. Most of the Chinese people did not recognize the pattern and meaning on it. It was from one of the six people.
This little thing was hidden very deeply. If Zhou Guangzong hadn't known them and just flipped through it, he would never have discovered it.
Because of this thing, Zhou Guangzong decided without hesitation to do his best to rescue these six men. If there were not enough supplies, he would go and find them!
"cough."
Lin Luo coughed lightly, and her eyes swept over the Zhoujiawu villagers who had determined faces, as if they were about to cut back on food and live a difficult life in the next second.
Even Hong Hu and others looked in agreement and had no intention of objecting.
"I will naturally be responsible for the supplies of the people I rescued, so you don't have to worry."
The reason why they were sent to Zhou's house was, firstly, because there was no place in her house for these six grown men, and secondly, because Lin Luo did not know how to treat people with frostbite.
As soon as she said this, Zhou Guangzong and the others shook their heads, "How can this be possible? This is not just your business, little girl Luo. We..."
Lin Luo raised his hand slightly, "Alright, you guys, keep the food for yourselves. I'll take care of this matter."
In the end, Zhou Guangzong and his men failed to persuade Lin Luo, but they also secretly decided in their hearts that they couldn't let Lin Luo bear the responsibility alone. After all, the people were already here with him, so he couldn't decide what to eat and drink, right?
Perhaps because of his good physical condition, a man woke up first at around 3:00 p.m.
Yao Haichao didn't expect that he would have another chance to open his eyes. In such a desolate mountain and wilderness place, there might not be anyone going there normally, let alone in the end times.
The moment he fell on the snow, he was unwilling to die like this, and unwilling to let his brothers become like him.
But it was no use being unwilling to give up, he soon lost consciousness.
Now, seeing the five brothers lying beside him and this warm and spacious room, if he didn't believe in ghosts and gods, he would have thought he was in the home of some fox fairy.
"Wake up! Wake up!" A soft but excited female voice sounded in his ears. Yao Haichao, who was still a little slow to react, realized that there was another girl in the room. She had a round face and looked no more than eighteen or nineteen years old.
Seeing Yao Haichao wake up, the girl smiled at him and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go call them."
They took turns to watch over these people. They originally thought that the earliest they could wake up would be tomorrow, and they might even have a fever tonight. They didn't expect someone to wake up so soon.
Soon, Yao Haichao saw a group of people headed by Zhou Guangzong. Most of them were watching him quietly outside the door. Only Zhou Guangzong and Lin Luo actually entered the house.
"This is Zhoujiawu in Changqing Town, Wenjiang City. It's very safe and you don't have to worry." Zhou Guangzong's words did make Yao Haichao breathe a sigh of relief.
He knew that Wenjiang City was right next to Wulian City where he was going, but he didn't expect that they would end up here after traveling around.
"Thank you for saving us. My name is Yao Haichao, and they are all my teammates." Yao Haichao expressed his gratitude sincerely. He knew very well what kind of danger he had faced before.
If not? The person in front of me will definitely die!
But then Yao Haichao remembered that the food he had brought with him was left behind. He knew how scarce supplies were in the last days, and this village probably wasn't doing well either.
Thinking of this, Yao Haichao wanted to get out of bed immediately and forgot about the rosy complexions of Zhou Guangzong and the others. This was not like the look of villagers who were short of supplies.
"Okay, you guys just rest here and don't worry about food." Zhou Guangzong saw through what the boy was thinking at a glance.
The small badge we found before was the one on him, which means he is the captain of this team.
"No, I'm fine, soon..."
Before he could finish his words, Zhou Guangzong directly pushed him down. His moves were quick and decisive without hurting Yao Haichao. He was a very skilled martial artist.
At the same time, Zhou Guangzong walked to the door and pushed out the onlookers. Then he returned to the bed, put his feet together, straightened his back, and made a movement with his right hand that was most familiar to Yao Haichao.
As for Lin Luo, Zhou Guangzong didn't want to hide it from her, and Lin Luo probably had some guesses in her mind.
"Former captain of the Dragon God Team, number 163, codenamed 'Wangshu'!"
Yao Haichao was stunned. Zhou Guangzong continued with a serious face, "What is Article 31 of the Code?"
Yao Haichao spoke reflexively: "It's shameful to watch someone die without helping! Seek profit and avoid harm and die!"
Lin Luo: "..." She almost laughed out loud. Who came up with this rule? It's quite easy to say.
"You, who are you?..." Yao Haichao stuttered. How come he didn't expect to meet an "acquaintance" here, even though he and Zhou Guangzong had never met before.
But for people in their line of work, apart from their teammates, the fewer people they know, the better, even if they are doing the same thing.
And what team did the old man in front of him just say he was from? Dragon God! That was the team he admired the most! Yao Haichao's eyes couldn't help but brighten up.
"Stop nagging! Young people these days are getting worse and worse!" Zhou Guangzong sat down again. "Take good care of her. Don't worry about things that shouldn't be your concern!"
I have to say that Zhou Guangzong's tough style is quite useful. I wonder if Yao Haichao was trained in this way, but he quickly returned to normal and stopped "making trouble".
He took the hot water handed to him by Zhou Guangzong and drank a few sips to soothe his body. Then Grandma Yao brought him the freshly heated porridge, which was just the right time for Yao Haichao, who hadn't eaten for a whole day, to experience something. It was called the most delicious food in the world.
Knowing that they still had things to talk about, Grandma Yao left quickly, and there were only three sober people left in the room.
Only then did Yao Haichao seem to see Lin Luo and gave her a somewhat stiff smile, secretly guessing her identity in his heart. This aura was definitely not that of an ordinary person. Could she be another "teammate"?
"What's the situation outside?" Zhou Guangzong asked first. "Our signal was cut off on the second day of the apocalypse."
These things are nothing and need to be kept confidential. Yao Haichao quickly told some of the situations he knew and saw outside.
It was mentioned before that the Flower Kingdom established seven major bases, and after enduring the initial chaos, they all survived temporarily.
After more than two months of development, we have established our own system, but the situation outside has not improved, but has become more serious.
When their team passed through Wulian City before, this prosperous provincial capital was already dead silent, with only zombies wandering on the streets. It was even more distressing than the end of the world in the movies!
"Zombies are evolving very quickly. Quite a few Level 2 zombies have already appeared. We even suspect Level 3 zombies may be around as well... However, there are only a few Level 2 psychics on the human side."
The South China base is definitely not small, with an estimated population of over one million. However, there are currently less than four digits of level two psychics.
When Yao Haichao said this, his tone was very heavy. That cultivation method of unknown origin was indeed very useful and accelerated the upgrade of the psychics, but compared with the zombies, it was still a step behind.
He and his teammates were quite talented, all already at level 2. However, facing those unpredictable and tenacious animals and plants, they were still almost wiped out.
And their mission this time... is to find that place and see if there is anything left.
But this involves confidentiality, and I definitely can’t tell Zhou Guangzong and the others?
Knowing that Yao Haichao had not recovered yet, Zhou Guangzong did not ask any more questions. Some things were not urgent.
Let Yao Haichao have a good rest, Zhou Guangzong and Lin Luo left quietly. They originally wanted to ask him to change rooms, but Yao Haichao was unwilling, so forget it.
"no problem."
After going downstairs, Lin Luo suddenly said this.
Zhou Guangzong trusts Yao Haichao and the others, but Lin Luo must confirm it personally. She doesn't want to waste supplies to rescue a few ungrateful people.
After returning home, Lin Luo went to the basement first, planning to sort out some supplies and send them over tomorrow morning.
"Lolo, are those people okay?"
Yun Shu helped Lin Luo pack his things and asked by the way.
When Yun Shu thought about Lin Luo having to support six more people, he became a little worried about the subsequent consumption rate.
He even started to consider eating less and thinking of other ways to replenish supplies, but Yun Shu would never question Lin Luo's decision and would not let Lin Luo give up those people.
Of course he doesn't have any military complex, it's just because of Lin Luo.
——Lolo said he wanted to save her, so let’s save her!
"It's okay for now. Let's wait until the others wake up and see." Lin Luo put the can of black sesame paste in his hand. "Don't worry about the supplies. I will take care of it."
Not to mention the worms in Yunshu's stomach, she is the person who knows him best. She knows at a glance what this person is "worried" about.
"The supplies here plus those on the mountain are more than enough to feed you."
Several water, earth and wood element psychics are practicing very diligently. Perhaps they will be able to advance to level two psychics around December, which will give them more usable land.
If you plant the vegetables, you can harvest them in less than a month.
Of course, these are all plans for the future. The key is that those men will not stay long. Lin Luo estimates that they will leave in half a month at most.
If it takes half a month to raise six people and they suffer serious injuries, then Lin Luo’s nearly one year of preparation would be in vain.
The next day when Lin Luo went there, all six men were awake, and Yao Haichao was even able to get out of bed and walk around.
They are already the best among humans, and with the added bonus of their current superpowers, their physical fitness is indeed extraordinary, otherwise they probably wouldn't have been able to hold on until Lin Luo came to rescue them.
Facing the curious gazes of Zhou Mengjie, Wu Yan and other children, Yao Haichao, who was walking around in the living room trying to recover as soon as possible, showed no fluctuation on his face and looked calm.
But what is he thinking? Maybe only he knows.
"Yes, we are all level two. I have lightning ability, and the other five are..."
In the evening, six men sat together on the long sofa in the Zhou family's living room and introduced themselves.
After hearing that these six people were already level two and had the three special abilities of earth, water and wood, Zhou Guangzong laughed out loud.
He stepped forward and patted the confused Yao Haichao on the shoulder, "Good boy, you'll be busy from now on."
Zhou Guangzong would not think that it was inhumane to use people who had just "recovered from a serious illness". None of the people in this team were weak.
Now that it can be used, I might be even happier.
Lin Luo didn't expect that the people she rescued were all masters, and coincidentally, they all gathered the three superpowers she needed.
Could this be... the legendary good things that happen to good people?
On the morning of the third day, the three men who had been told in advance what to do were full of anticipation. If they could really purify the land, it would be a great thing for the base!
Yao Haichao understood the meaning behind this matter better, but he was also a little worried. Is this really okay?
How did this Miss Lin Luo know this method?
He originally thought that Zhou Guangzong, as the village chief, was the main reason why this small village was so prosperous, like a paradise. But now it seems...
This mysterious Miss Lin seemed to be the core figure of Zhoujiawu. Everyone looked at her with full trust and respect. Even when she proposed to purify the land, no one doubted or questioned anything.
—You guys? Don’t you know how difficult this is?!
According to him, various laboratories are working hard on the issue of polluted land, hoping to find a solution, but unfortunately no good news has been heard so far.
But this is actually because Yao Haichao's authority is not enough. Lin Luo had clearly stated the solution to land pollution in a text message before.
But the prerequisite is at least level four supernatural power.
Now there are very few people with second-level abilities, and when the fourth level doesn't know what to do, the leader naturally wants to try other methods.
"Okay, let's start." Lin Luo walked to a piece of contaminated farmland. In the blink of an eye, she dug out a "clod of earth" with an area of about two square meters and a height of about one meter from the soil and suspended it in front of everyone.
If you are doing this for the first time, try a small portion first.
For others, level four is a prerequisite, but with Lin Luo, she can change the conditions!
A second-level psychic has already had a preliminary understanding of his own abilities, just like Lin Luo did back then? After reaching the second level, he developed mental needles, and his combat effectiveness instantly increased a lot.
Moreover, she reached level two just one month after the apocalypse, which was faster than almost all the psychics, which shows her talent.
"You three, imagine your powers as a ball of air, and then wrap it around that clod of earth."
Lin Luo's words stunned all the psychics present. What? Imagine it as a ball of air?
Lin Luo: “…Don’t understand?”
Isn't this a very easy sentence to understand? How could he not understand? Looking at the slightly confused faces, Lin Luo suddenly had a bad premonition. He seemed to be too idealistic.
To a top student, cooking noodles is just pouring water and adding noodles. But to the average person… why? How much water? Where does the water come from?
This is roughly the current situation.
Lin Luo was silent for a moment, then spoke again: "Elemental powers aren't a materialized thing, they're a form of energy. It's not that just because you summon earth, the earth becomes your power. It's because of the law of conservation of energy and mass that the energy is converted into earth. Now, you need to release the energy but prevent it from turning into earth."
Everyone: “???” They were even more confused!
call--
A cold wind blew by, but it did not clear everyone's confused heads much.
Zhou Guangzong couldn't help but raise his hand: "But? I can't transform metal at the moment, I can only manipulate it."
Lin Luo: “…because your level is too low.” What do you want to do at level one?
Lin Luo's words almost made Zhou Guangzong's serious expression collapse, but he finally managed to maintain his image with his years of experience: "Then how should we release the energy?"
Lin Luo's thin eyebrows wrinkled slightly, "Just like that? Let it go."
——For this question, A and B are wrong. D does not mean the same thing, so choose C.
Zhou Xiang, who had no special abilities but came here out of curiosity, seemed to see the scene of himself taking an English class in front of him. What was the difference between that and the current Lin Luo?
Why? A and B are obviously wrong? Aren't D and C similar in meaning?
A poor student like him will probably never understand.
Things seemed to be at a stalemate.
