Chapter 159: Overnight
"Don't worry. These birds are equipped with mind-jamming equipment. Unless they try to observe us, the mutants won't notice us."
Huh? There's also mind-disrupting equipment?
Xu Xinxin had never heard of such equipment.
Sure enough, the equipment that the superpower army is equipped with has to be more advanced.
But even so, they were not 100% safe in the wilderness.
The energy fluctuations in the wilderness were too complex, and after advancing for an hour, the team was forced to stop on the roof of an abandoned building.
The psychic in the lead needs to repeatedly measure the energy fluctuations nearby before determining the next direction to move forward.
This is not something that can be determined in a short period of time.
By the time he had decided on the route, it was almost noon and time for lunch.
Xu Xinxin didn't have to worry about meals, because the space-type psychics traveling with the army brought various canned foods, self-heating rice, compressed biscuits and other foods.
Most of the factories in the city are now abandoned. Occasionally, there are a few that are still in use, and the materials they produce are all provided to the supernatural army.
So Xu Xinxin had a self-heating meal after a long time.
Open the self-heating rice box, put the heating pack underneath, place the rice on the sink, cover it with the lid, and soon, a bowl of steaming hot fish-flavored shredded pork rice will be ready.
Having said that, the food tasted average, but it was much better than compressed biscuits.
Fortunately, these rices are all evolved ingredients. Every bite of them replenishes the energy in the body.
After eating a bowl of food, Xu Xinxin felt a lot more refreshed.
After finishing the meal, before the team set out again, General Li also held a bowl of food and stood beside Xu Xinxin, saying, "Xu Xinxin, the conditions in the team are limited. Are you used to these meals?"
At this time, Xu Xinxin was almost done with her bowl of rice. When she heard the question, she quickly raised her head and said, "Yeah, I'm used to it. It tastes pretty good."
But it’s not as delicious as the food she cooks at home.
At this time, General Li said again: "If there is anything you are not used to on the road, you can tell me."
This is a very nice compliment.
She was squatting now, looking up at General Li. She felt a little tired, so she simply stood up and said, "Yes, General Li, don't worry, I will definitely not let myself down."
"That's good......"
Just as they were talking, there were suddenly some small fighting noises at the bottom of the building, crackling, as if there were other animals fighting for territory downstairs.
Several psychics who were on guard immediately became cautious and alert.
Xu Xinxin also quickly took the last bite of food out of her mouth, threw the food box into the trash bag, and stood vigilantly in the crowd with Xia Runlin.
Xu Xinxin thought that a fight was about to break out, but unexpectedly, after they stood quietly for a while, nothing happened.
Is that it?
Xu Xinxin turned around in confusion and found that there was a person next to her who seemed to be throwing something into the air.
When the noise downstairs disappeared, Xia Runlin said, "That should be a powder collected from high-level evolved plants and animals. It can dispel low-level mutated or evolved plants and animals."
He didn't say what the powder was made of specifically, but Xu Xinxin immediately thought of the substance: could it be made of animal excrement?
Thinking of this scene, Xu Xinxin couldn't help rubbing her arms with her hands, but she quickly got over it.
Forget it, no matter how something is made, as long as it is useful.
After the downstairs became quiet again, everyone quickly finished their meal and sat on the back of the Nian beast again.
The psychic said, "The direction has been determined. Next, we will go this way."
Soon, everyone was ready and flew in a new direction again.
All day long, they were either looking for new directions, flying in the sky, or looking for buildings to rest.
By nightfall, they had run a long way, but from a high place, they didn't seem to have gone very far.
In the evening, we found an open space. This used to be a university basketball court. There were some weeds and shrubs on the ground, but there were still many flat areas.
When it got dark, the special forces took turns to keep watch, and everyone still ate convenient foods such as compressed biscuits.
Xu Xinxin hasn’t gotten tired of eating this yet and enjoys eating it with gusto.
Next to them, some soldiers with special powers were already "building" houses.
The house they built was similar to the safe house that Zheng Fengni and her team had taken out before, except that it was a little bigger and thicker.
There were several sleeping bags in a safe house, and everyone slept together.
Xu Xinxin didn't want to sleep on the "big bunk bed", so she squeezed with Xia Runlin in his newly built "small rock house".
At night, people took turns to keep watch outside, and Xu Xinxin and Xia Runlin also rested in sleeping bags in the small cave.
It’s not that they don’t want to sleep in a bed, but there is limited flat space nearby, and they built this small house based on the terrain, so there is no extra space in the house to put a bed.
The two field mice, the little orange cat, and the big bees were particularly well-behaved that night. They huddled together in the corner of the house and fell asleep.
After Xu Xinxin fell asleep, the people in other safe houses couldn't help but talk about their unique little rock house.
"Do you think it would be useful for those two people to follow us?"
"It's hard to say. Anyway, it looks very delicate."
Especially that girl, who looks like she has just reached adulthood, is timid and looks weak. Although she was allowed to follow us because of her strong affinity with animals, with her as one more person, we have to assign several people to protect her, which is not enough trouble.
However, no one said these words out loud, they just muttered them in their hearts.
"What's there to say? We'll know whether it's a mule or a horse in the end."
"Too."
A few people whispered a few words and then lay down in their sleeping bags and fell asleep.
The next day.
Xu Xinxin felt her nose was a little itchy and suddenly sneezed.
"A-choo!"
She sneezed, and the field mice and little orange cats sleeping next to her were suddenly awakened by the shock. They rolled to the ground, then hurriedly got up.
It's not yet completely light.
It's hard to get a good night's sleep in the wild without a bed.
Since she couldn't fall asleep now, Xu Xinxin saw that Xia Runlin next to her had woken up, so she pulled him aside to talk.
"Xia Runlin, how long do you think it will take us to find them?"
This "they" refers to her biological parents.
"It's hard to say," Xia Runlin said, "Don't worry, we'll find it in the next few days."
"I'm not in a hurry," Xu Xinxin said truthfully, "I just feel that everything is going well now. Do you think there is a possibility that we can find it today?"
