Chapter 233
"What's wrong?" Tang Xueyun asked.
"No...I seemed to see something strange..." Tang Yuxin said.
Maybe she saw it wrong?
Tang Yuxin was a little unsure and wanted to take another look, but Tang Xueyun had already taken the spirit storage bag and opened it.
"Hey, why are there so many books?"
The space in the spirit storage bag seems to be independent. No matter how the bag shakes, the things inside will not be shaken or tilted.
So when Tang Xueyun opened it, the inside was still the same as before.
She took out the book on top and found that the cover read "Twelve Years of Compulsory Education (Full Education Edition) Third Grade Mathematics".
In addition to mathematics, there are other subjects that have not only textbooks but also exercises and test papers.
Tang Yuxin's eyes widened. She questioned her life with a look of doubt: "Did brother send the wrong thing?"
Tang Xueyun smiled and said, "Probably not. These are for you."
"It's the end of the world now! There are monsters everywhere outside! There are no teachers in school!" Tang Yuxin's tone gradually collapsed.
Tang Xueyun took out a card from the book and handed it to her after reading it.
"Your brother gave this to you."
Tang Yuxin took the card angrily.
It only reads:
[Xinxin, in the other world I live in, almost no one is literate, and knowledge cannot be passed on. This causes many people to live in extreme hardship. They don't even know how to make a water purifier, and they drink the dirty floodwaters directly.]
After receiving this set of 12-year compulsory education curriculum, my brother Xiaoqi and I started studying. I have now completed the junior high school curriculum by self-study.
[I learned a lot of useful knowledge from the textbooks, which can help us survive better in the doomsday world]
[I'm sorry, I can't be by your side to protect you and your parents, so I can only think of ways to arm you and improve your ability to survive the apocalypse.]
[The apocalypse doesn't allow us to grow up slowly. You need to study hard, increase your knowledge, strengthen your thinking ability, and exercise well so that you don't have to be afraid of monsters and disasters.]
I'll try to find more equipment and techniques that suit you. You should also work hard. I hope you'll be safe and healthy when we reunite in the future. ^ ^]
[I will always care about you, my brother, An]
After reading the contents of the card, Tang Yuxin's eyes were already wet.
She pursed her lips, snuggled up to Tang Xueyun, and said, "Mom, I miss my brother so much..."
Tang Xueyun hugged her, her eyes already red.
After a while, Tang Yuxin said, "Mom, can you read it to me? I don't know many of the words..."
Tang Xueyun touched the top of her head and said, "Wait for mom to clean it up first, then I'll read it to you, okay?"
Tang Yuxin nodded obediently.
At this time, Tang Sheng also heard the noises from the mother and daughter. He came up to see what was happening and quickly said, "Go to the bathroom and wash up. I'll clean up."
Then he told Heituantuan to boil some water.
Tang Xueyun nodded. She saw cotton and cotton cloth in the spirit storage bag, which could be used to sew sanitary napkins.
There was clean bedding in the magic tent. After Tang Xueyun washed herself and put on her homemade sanitary napkin, she lay down again.
At this time, the family of three gathered together to watch the video on the computer.
"The other world we traveled to is also experiencing the end of the world, but thanks to the Doomsday Grocery Store system, Xiaoqi and I didn't have a hard time..."
"We built a shelter in a place called Desolate City. It's called Desolate City Home..."
Through Tang Yu'an's narration, Tang's father and mother finally understood some of their situations in the other world.
But they remained skeptical of his understated account.
After all, they have lived in the apocalypse before. How could they not know how hard it is to live in the apocalypse?
What's more, the two children are so young, and they are venturing into a completely unfamiliar doomsday world. The dangers they encounter can be easily imagined.
Of course, when the couple heard about their two children’s current achievements, they couldn’t help but feel proud of them.
They are truly amazing!
"Knowledge about obstetrics and gynecology..." Tang Xueyun said with a headache, "I need to recall this carefully."
"How about we go to the bookstore and look for it?" Tang Sheng suggested.
He remembered seeing a bookstore when he went out to look for a car.
"Why not send them all the books in the bookstore? Maybe they can be useful to them?" he said.
"Besides, they have built a shelter and taken in many people. They must be in need of food. We can also collect some high-yield seeds and send them to them."
Good seeds are difficult, but books are quite easy.
After all, in a world like this, books are worthless and no one would want them if they were thrown on the street.
Tang Xueyun also thought her husband was right. She nodded, then said with some regret, "It would be great if we could get online. We could just copy it online, and the information would be more complete."
"The power grid was destroyed by monsters, and there's no one to repair it. Restoring it is very difficult."
Tang Sheng shook his head and continued, "Eat something first and have a good rest."
Tang Xueyun was on her menstrual period and her body smelled strongly of blood, so it was not convenient for her to go out for the time being and she could only stay in the magic tent to recuperate.
Seeing that his wife and daughter seemed to have recovered a lot in just ten days, Tang Sheng couldn't help but grin.
"Your period proves that you are healthy, which is a good thing."
Tang Xueyun looked at him listlessly, shook her head and said, "Don't take any risks by yourself until I recover."
The main reason was that the mutant outside had already made this gym its lair, and they couldn't leave unless they dealt with it.
"I know my limits."
Tang Sheng was not going to wait for his wife to fully recover before dealing with the mutant. He had been observing it these days and found that it was devouring and digesting other mutants, and its aura was getting stronger day by day.
If they couldn't destroy it in time, they might really be trapped in the magic tent forever.
Although the tent was very safe and had sufficient supplies, Tang Sheng still felt that they should not stay in the tent at a snail's pace.
Especially since there is a monster outside, what if the tent is destroyed?
Hei Tuan Tuan said that if the tent was damaged, this space would also collapse - of course, it also said that the material used to make the tent was very strong and not easily destroyed.
Tang Sheng didn't dare to gamble, so he had to at least kill the mutant outside and then take the tent to a safer and more secluded place.
Tang Xueyun opened her mouth slightly, but finally closed it and stopped trying to persuade her.
Tang Sheng had actually analyzed the issue with her several times, but she always refused on the grounds that recuperation was more important. In fact, deep down she was more tired of and wanted to escape from the doomsday world outside.
However, the letter her son wrote to her daughter woke her up.
Faced with such a disaster, they can no longer waste time on escape, but must work hard to strengthen themselves and increase their chances of survival in the doomsday.
I can't really rely on my son's support forever, right?
"Then I will record the obstetrics and gynecology knowledge I know and tell them, and then send this message in a bottle to them first." Tang Xueyun said.
"They are probably waiting for news from us, so we can't let them wait too long."
From Tang Yu'an's video, we can know that the one-way journey of the message in a bottle takes between 18 and 20 days. It is because of the drift acceleration function that the return time is shortened.
This acceleration needs to be actively triggered by An An and others, and can only be used once every three days.
If they wait too long to send the bottle and miss the time they press the accelerator, they'll have to wait another three days.
Tang Sheng nodded: "Okay, then send it back first, tell them the situation, and then ask them if they need anything else."
So, Tang Xueyun took out a pen and paper and began to recall knowledge about childbirth, and wrote down some suggestions and precautions on how to build a maternity room.
Tang Yuxin didn't make a noise. She took out her textbook and studied aside.
She found a dictionary in the new bag her brother had sent her, which she had previously put in her schoolbag.
She looked at the card her brother sent her, copied down the words she didn't understand, looked them up in the dictionary and noted their pinyin.
Although Tang Yuxin didn't like studying very much, she wanted to understand the letter her brother wrote to her.
At least, she has to recognize all the characters.
Tang Sheng handed the tableware to Xiao Heiqiu, and then came to the exit. He put on his sturdy armor and carefully lifted the door curtain.
A foul smell came from outside, which was very pungent.
Tang Sheng couldn't help but hold his breath. Instead of going out, he secretly turned on the light computer in follow mode and let it go out to record the situation in the gym.
He turned on another optical computer and received the real-time video footage from it.
Ten days later, the gym had changed drastically. Black and green slime were splattered everywhere, and a lot of fitness equipment was damaged.
The mutant was lying in the corner, sleeping.
Next to it was the remains of another mutant, with dark green mucus flowing out of the wreckage, which made people feel sick just by looking at it.
The mutant resting in the corner is at least three or four meters long, human-shaped, and has strong limbs.
What made Tang Sheng wary and troubled was that he had tried to use his supernatural power to "cheat" it before, but it didn't work.
Fortunately, he hid in the tent in time and was not hurt by it.
He felt that it was not a hearing problem, because this mutant could keenly sense any movement in the gym.
So maybe his "deception" ability is useless against this mutant.
In other words, if they want to leave here, they can only wait for it to leave on its own or defeat it head-on.
Seeing that the mutant was sleeping, Tang Sheng immediately seized this good opportunity and quickly threw the flying sickle out.
The flying sickle circled in the air and struck the mutant like a bolt of lightning!
Unfortunately, when the flying sickle hit the mutant's vitals, it raised its strong arms and blocked the sickle.
The flying sickle only had time to leave a wound on its arm before it was slapped away by the angry mutant and flew back at an even faster speed.
Tang Sheng quickly lowered the curtain.
The sickle spun in the air and finally fell to the floor of the gym.
The humanoid mutant roared angrily and patrolled the gym, but couldn't find the culprit for a long time. It could only hammer the ground to vent its anger.
You can see that there are three or four wounds on its body.
Those were the wounds Tang Sheng left on it while it was sleeping. Unfortunately, this mutant had thick skin and flesh, and these wounds didn't seem to have much impact on it.
After completing one cut each day, Tang Sheng would draw the curtain and take off his armor.
As for the flying sickle outside, it won't be too late to take it back when you find an opportunity -
This sickle can automatically return to the user's hand, making it a good piece of equipment.
Tang Sheng returned to the sofa in the living room and asked Xiao Heiqiu to squeeze him a glass of juice. Then he turned on the video that the light brain had just received and continued to think about how to deal with this mutant.
Although a daily blow cannot kill this mutant, interrupting its sleep seems to be able to slow down its absorption of energy.
At least it's growing stronger at a slower rate, so it won't be that difficult to deal with in the future.
-
MR176349 plane.
The RV from Ping An Grocery Store has reached the fork in the road.
On the map, the road leading to the abandoned chemical plant was still shrouded in fog, with only a thin line showing the traces of the green eye passing by.
"Did I drive over there?" Zhou Qi said.
"Yeah!" Tang Yu'an nodded, his eyes full of anticipation.
He was very curious about how Green Eyes survived in this poisonous fog, and who was the green dot with him?
Zhou Qi looked at the width of the road, and then asked Tang Yu'an to reduce the size of the RV.
Then he drove the RV to where the green eyes were under Tang Yu'an's command.
Under the effect of the protective barrier, the poisonous fog was blocked out, leaving a spherical space with a radius of about 20 meters.
In such a highly toxic environment, the land is not barren, and some short plants can be seen.
In addition, there were all kinds of debris and animal remains brought by the flood, scattered on the ground and crushed by the wheels.
Fortunately, there were no tall abandoned buildings on the road, so they only needed to move the debris to one side, leaving a passable road.
The deeper we go, the more plants there are.
After walking for half an hour, Tang Yu'an saw some short bushes with a lot of mutant blueberries hanging on them.
The green-eyed mutant blueberries were probably picked here.
The RV continued to move forward.
Gradually, they saw the buildings, which were the remains of an abandoned chemical plant. The factory buildings had collapsed and turned into ruins.
When we got here, the misty poisonous fog became even thicker, and the scenery outside the barrier was almost invisible.
Several pets were hiding in the RV, with no intention of getting out. Black Pearl, which had been hiding in Tang Yu'an's pocket, also jumped out.
It squatted on the control panel, looking outside with a serious expression.
Tang Yu'an looked at the map. The map showed a green dot representing a potential customer, and the golden light dot with green eyes was behind the right of the green dot.
"There seems to be a tree there?" he said, pointing to where the green dot was.
Zhou Qi nodded, then took out the mutated blueberries from his portable storage. He and Tang Yuan ate a few of them.
As for the pets, Tang Yu'an hesitated for a moment, but still put them into the pet compartment.
They came straight to Green Eyes without saying hello in advance. In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, it is better to put Black Pearl and the others away.
After eating the mutated blueberries and improving his resistance to toxins, Tang Yu'an bought two sets of protective clothing from the plane store.
They wrapped themselves tightly and put on goggles before tentatively opening the car door.
Although the poisonous fog was blocked by the protective barrier, the toxins had already invaded the land over time, so they could not be too careful.
After confirming that they did not feel dizzy and their protective clothing was not corroded, the two jumped out of the car.
Zhou Qi began to mobilize his special powers to clear the debris of the building that was blocking the RV, while Tang Yu'an walked towards the tree.
Inside the protective barrier, he didn't need to worry about danger, so Tang Yu'an was very brave and Zhou Qi didn't stop him.
The tree was about six or seven meters tall, with only half of its crown hidden in the protective barrier, and the rest was still hidden in the poisonous fog.
Tang Yu'an opened the hard panel and expanded the protective barrier outward by five meters, finally accommodating the entire tree.
However, strangely, he circled around the bottom of the tree and flew to the top of the tree to look for it, but he still couldn't find the potential customer.
What's going on? The map clearly shows there's a person here.
Tang Yu'an stretched out his fingers and tapped the tree trunk.
This is solid, there shouldn't be anyone hiding inside, so could it be...
He finally remembered that he had encountered this situation before. Just as he was about to turn around to find Zhou Qi, he found that he had flown over without him noticing.
Through the lenses of the goggles, you can see that Zhou Qi's eyes have turned red again.
So this big tree was really transformed by the backlash of the wood-type mutant! Brother Xiaoqi was controlled by the spirit insect again!
"Brother Xiaoqi!"
Tang Yu'an rushed over and hugged him, saying loudly: "Wake up!"
Before putting on the protective suit, Tang Yu'an put on the white swan gloves, so after being hugged by him, Zhou Qi was not able to break free as easily as before.
Tang Yu'an was delighted, but before he could be happy for long, Zhou Qi put his hands under his armpits and picked him up.
Then he simply carried him on his shoulders and continued to move closer to the tree.
"Brother Xiaoqi! Stop it!"
Tang Yu'an's struggle was in vain, and Zhou Qi approached the tree in just three or two steps.
He raised his hand, the flames burned his glove, and finally he pressed his palm directly against the tree trunk.
Tang Yu'an looked up and back at the big tree.
A thread-like green glowing object appeared on the big tree. Although it kept struggling to escape, it kept getting closer and closer to Zhou Qi's hand.
Finally, when it reached the position where Zhou Qi's palm was, he pulled it out of the tree trunk.
Watching Zhou Qi swallow the spiritual insect again, Tang Yu'an couldn't help but sigh. So, is Brother Xiaoqi going to turn into a big tree this time?
After swallowing the spiritual insect, Zhou Qi's control over him obviously loosened. Tang Yu'an quickly took the opportunity to push away his grip and jumped to the ground.
And just as Zhou Qi had guessed, his body was rapidly turning into wood.
With previous experience, Tang Yu'an quickly performed the light healing technique, pressing it on Zhou Qi's heart, and stopped after three consecutive times.
In contrast to Zhou Qi, the body of the big tree was shrinking rapidly and slowly turning into the appearance of a human.
This is indeed a person with special abilities who was attacked by the spiritual insect!
Seeing that Zhou Qi was temporarily stable, Tang Yu'an was about to go over to check on him when he heard a sharp and piercing "Ahhh" sound.
He hurriedly protected Zhou Qishen, but saw a green shadow rushing over from outside the barrier.
The green shadow screamed, but when it was halfway through running, it suddenly froze in place.
He saw the figure on the ground, his face covered with pustules and sores, and he could clearly see the look of disbelief on his face.
“Ah…ah…”
He squatted beside the figure on the ground and wanted to touch it with his hands, but when he saw the abscess on his hand, he quickly retracted his hands.
"Green eyes?" Tang Yu'an called him tentatively.
Green eyes couldn't help but look up at him, the initial hostility had disappeared, and the eyes were full of confusion.
When Tang Yu'an saw his eyes, he couldn't help but be distracted.
Although he looks scary, I have to say that he really has a pair of very beautiful green eyes.
The pure and moving green is like a gem, sparkling with tiny glimmers.
But he knew now was not the time to be distracted, so he came back to his senses and was about to introduce himself when he heard the green-eyed voice say with difficulty: "Merchant...Merchant?"
Tang Yu'an hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said, "I'm not him, but he did send me here."
"Green Eyes, the merchant hasn't heard from you for a long time. He's worried about you, so he sent us over to check on you."
He looked at the man on the ground and said, "Let me check him out, okay?"
Green Eyes was clearly hesitant, but after looking at his hands, he nodded.
So, Tang Yu'an squatted down.
He straightened the man on the ground, revealing his face which was hidden by his hair.
This was a young man who looked to be in his twenties, with rare green hair. His face was pale and haggard, and his breath was weak.
Tang Yu'an felt his vitality rapidly fading, and quickly released a light healing spell, then took out a bottle of intermediate healing potion and fed it to him.
Green Eyes froze in place as he watched the dazzling light come on.
He stared blankly at the strange-looking human in front of him, and as he saw the young man's aura gradually strengthening under his treatment, a look of joy appeared on his face.
He wanted to move closer to see it more clearly, but he quickly lowered his head and looked at his exposed festering skin.
There was a hint of gloom in his eyes.
Tang Yu'an didn't notice these things. After feeding the green-haired young man the healing potion, he also fed him the juice of mutant blueberries.
He also had many ulcer marks on his body like the green eyes, so he must have been poisoned.
After feeding him, he continued to use light healing magic on him until his supernatural power was used up, then he stopped.
The sores on the green-haired young man's body finally healed and scabbed. Although they are not completely healed yet, it should only be a matter of time.
Tang Yu'an breathed a sigh of relief, and saw the green-haired young man's eyelashes trembling and slowly opening his eyes.
Unlike the light green color of green eyes, his eyes are dark with green, appearing deeper.
When he saw Tang Yu'an, the green-haired young man was obviously stunned, with a bit of confusion in his eyes, and then he looked around.
"Green eyes?" His voice was very hoarse, as if he hadn't spoken in years.
"Where are the green eyes?" he demanded.
Aren’t the green eyes right next to it?
Tang Yu'an looked back curiously, but found that there was no one behind him. Green Eyes had already left without him noticing.
He glanced at the map.
I found that Green Eyes didn't go far, but just hid in an abandoned building nearby. I don't know what he was doing.
The author has something to say:
Green Eyes: I want to hide and no one can find me!
An An (takes a look at the map): Are you sure?
