The convoy returned to the base at midnight that night. The survivors they brought back were temporarily housed in the newly built assembly room, while Lin Yue and the others went home.
Lin Yue quickly washed up and went to bed.
The next morning, after reporting the situation of the trip to his superiors, Cao Kefeng secured the greatest possible benefits for those who went with him.
Besides the military and those who had previously left the team, a total of 21 people from the base volunteered to go out and search for people. In addition to the promised reward of 100 points, each person would also receive half a wild boar.
Lin Yue's share is separate. It was agreed beforehand that everything she hunted would be hers—about two hundred wild boars, half of which would belong to Lin Yue.
Cao Kefeng thought Lin Yue might not be able to get up that early, so he specially delivered it to her at noon.
However, there were too many wild boars and they were too conspicuous, so Lin Yue only kept five, saying she would keep them for the gray wolf and snow wolf to eat. She had Cao Kefeng take the rest back and directly gave them points to her.
With this operation, Lin Yue gained over 800,000 points on her points card. Combined with what she had left, her total approached 900,000. In the base, this amount made her a true millionaire.
Just thinking about it makes me happy. She used to be a little rich, but after being poor for so long, she has finally become a little rich again, although not a little money.
After Cao Kefeng left, Lin Yue went up to the third floor to see her little ones.
When she went out, she didn't want to put the chickens and ducks back into her space, so she only took a few feeding boxes for the chickens and ducks, filled them all up, enough for five or six days, and also filled four large basins with water.
She was too tired last night and didn't pay attention to them. When she came back now, she found that some were missing.
Five chickens died and three ducks died.
Originally, the chicken had thirty fertilized eggs and the duck had twenty fertilized eggs. Twenty-eight chicks hatched from the chicken and nineteen chicks hatched from the duck. Now that some of them have died, Lin Yue is heartbroken.
However, she observed that animals are really adaptable. Apart from the few that died, the surviving ones all grew a lot of fine, thick downy fur, which felt very warm to the touch.
After thoroughly cleaning the third floor, taking the excrement downstairs as fertilizer, and watering the ground again, Lin Yue entered the space.
I haven't been in the space for three days, and the vegetables there have grown quite a bit. Some, like bok choy and water spinach, are already edible. The remaining varieties of cauliflower and Chinese cabbage should be ready in another week or so.
The cold-resistant sweet potatoes and potatoes are not very noticeable in the ground, but the corn is very obvious. It will be ripe in at most half a month, which is half a month earlier than the corn grown outside.
Lin Yue was a little surprised. The space time was the same as the outside flow rate, but this thing grew very fast. She could pick a handful of fresh bok choy tonight.
Kongling knew she had come in and immediately ran to her.
"Yueyue, Yueyue, have you found the antique?" A small, ethereal hand tugged at a lock of her hair, looking at her with great anticipation.
"No! Can't you feel it?" Lin Yue shook off the ethereal air and freed her hair.
"Just because it's in a box doesn't mean it isn't. Hehe!" She was just hoping for a little surprise!
“There are no antiques, but there are plenty of wild boars. Didn’t you see them? Would you like me to roast some for you?” Lin Yue asked with a smile.
"I don't want to." Kongling shook her head like a rattle drum.
This wasn't her first time in this time and space; she knew exactly what wild boars looked like now, and she wasn't going to eat them.
Although there was nothing wrong with the wild boar itself, the thought of what had been in its stomach made her determined not to eat it unless she starved to death.
When Kong Ling said she didn't want to eat, Lin Yue didn't hesitate.
Everyone has different tastes, and it's normal not to like wild boar. Besides, wild boar probably doesn't taste very good these days.
Upon entering the small villa, Lin Yue sat on the sofa, staring intently at the snow-white wall in front of her, thinking about the person from yesterday.
"Yueyue, what's wrong? Did something happen when you went out?" Kongling asked, noticing Lin Yue's confused expression.
"Kongling, do you think it's a coincidence that the people in my dreams look exactly like the people in the real world?"
She had the same dream for two months in a row, and suddenly the people in her dreams became real. This feeling was very subtle, especially since the people in her dreams were going to eat her. She felt a chill run down her spine.
"That's normal! You might dream about people you've met before, and if you see them again, you'll definitely feel like you know them well." Kong Ling sat down on the coffee table in front of the sofa and picked up a bag of potato chips to eat.
She thought it was something serious, but it turned out to be a dream.
"But I've never seen that person. In my dream, it was also the apocalypse. He and some other people hung me in a warehouse and tore me to pieces and ate me. I'm pretty sure I wasn't reborn, but I've had this dream for two months straight. Is that normal?"
Lin Yue's voice trembled slightly, a result of fear; she still remembered the pain in her dream.
Since the end of the world, no matter what situation she encountered, she had never felt this way, not even when she thought about the scene in her dream.
But when she actually saw one of the people who had devoured her in her dream, she began to wonder if she too had been reborn but had forgotten her previous life.
Kongling paused in her potato chip eating, her voice a little unnatural: "Well... that might be because you saw someone like that in some novel, and the description was too realistic, so you dreamed about all sorts of weird things. Yes, that's it."
Lin Yue was focused on the wall and didn't notice the strange emptiness in the air.
Kong Ling's words weren't entirely unreasonable. She liked reading novels and had read many of them. Many of the villainous henchmen in novels were described in this way, so it was possible that she was just overthinking it.
Lin Yue shook her head, trying to clear the jumbled thoughts from her mind.
In any case, once Cang Yu arrives, she can ask him about the person's situation and identity. If necessary, she can ask Cang Yu to find an opportunity to kill the person for her, or she can do it herself.
After figuring it out, she stopped worrying and went to the field to pick a big bunch of bok choy. For lunch, she had chicken soup with bok choy. She gave the two outer leaves that weren't old leaves to the chicks and ducklings so they could grow up quickly and lay eggs.
When Kong Ling saw Lin Yue leave the space, for the first time she didn't bother her like before.
That was a close call! She had promised not to let Lin Yue know the truth. The space spirits always kept their promises, so she couldn't let the secret slip from her.
Sigh! This apocalypse is really no fun at all. It was just two drops of heart's blood. Why was she so greedy? If she hadn't been greedy, she wouldn't have had to come twice.
Even if...
That was happening at the same time, and she didn't know it. What a terrible thing!
Lin Yue didn't know what Kong Ling was thinking. After leaving the space, she started cooking rice, making chicken soup, and blanching bok choy. After that, she even put a bowl of the soup in the space for Kong Ling.
After lunch, Lin Yue sat by herself for a while, then took out thirty eggs and went to the hospital to find her mentor, Professor Qi.
