Chapter 12: Failed Experiment



She constantly exercises her physical fitness, just hoping that after the end of the world, she can rely on her own abilities to survive.

At the end of the world, no plants could grow on the land, and even those that did grow were mutated. The leaders of the major bases had their wood-type psychics stimulate the growth of various seeds left behind, but with little success. The input and output were completely disproportionate. Zombies were terrifying, but without food, how could humans survive?

Even if she wasn't mauled to death by zombies, she would starve to death. Cannibalism was a common occurrence. As time went on, there became less and less food to eat. So, when she learned that Li Yuyao had left food in the car, she knew the danger but still had no choice but to go out and find a way to retrieve it. However, she still underestimated the wickedness of human nature.

However, Qin Qing was filled with joy and excitement. Seeing the vegetable seeds she had casually scattered grow so lushly, she knew that crops like rice and wheat would be able to grow as well. As long as she kept looking for jade that could upgrade her space, and her cultivated area expanded, she wouldn't have to worry about not having enough food in the future.

Qin Qing was experiencing a mixture of surprise and joy, while Xiao Yi had just returned home. Walking in, the room was deserted. He touched his waist, sighed deeply, and then sprawled out on the living room sofa.

The girl's words about wanting to kill him were still ringing in his ears. Given his usual temper, he would have probably sent someone to find the person and give her a good lesson long ago, right? However, Xiao Yi couldn't help but think of those eyes that were as bright as stars, and a strange feeling flashed through his mind.

He lay on the sofa in a daze for a long time, touched his red and swollen part, and actually grinned. Halfway through his laugh, Xiao Yi seemed to wake up and secretly cursed himself. Was he a masochist? He actually got beaten up, and he still thought it was funny.

As he was lost in thought, the phone next to him rang shrilly. Xiao Yi frowned. He had been hiding here, and those people were still bothering him? However, he remembered that he had only given his contact number to his cousin. Thinking of his cousin, the hand that was about to unplug the phone line instead picked up the receiver.

"Hello, cousin?"

"Well...it's not safe outside now. I've sent someone to pick you up." A low and lazy voice came from the other end of the microphone.

"I won't go back, cousin. Could it be that the person from my family is asking you to take me back?" Xiao Yi felt resentful when he thought of this possibility.

"I'm not interested in getting involved in the Xiao family's mess. I don't want to repeat what I said a second time. You know my temper, be good..." After saying that, before Xiao Yi could say anything else, the phone on the other end hung up! Xiao Yi was so angry that he stared at the microphone in his hand, wishing he could stare a hole in it.

"Boss, do we really want to give up the mine over there?" Seeing the boss hang up the phone, the secretary standing next to him glanced at the boss and asked in a low voice.

The man behind the large mahogany desk leaned back slightly in his chair, his handsome face aloof and distant as he gazed at the secretary, his expressionless. The secretary suddenly fell silent. He had been with his boss for quite a while and knew he never changed his mind.

"I'm sorry, I overstepped my bounds!" He shuddered, then quickly bowed his head and admitted his mistake. In the silence, an invisible pressure weighed on his heart like a physical object, and sweat dripped down his forehead.

"Transport all the supplies to the base. No one is allowed to come out without my order. Secretary Lin, bring your family and enter the base this week." The man withdrew his gaze indifferently, tapped his fingers on the table, and then spoke.

When Secretary Lin heard what the boss said, he was overjoyed and quickly retreated.

He followed the boss and had heard some things, but he knew what he could and could not say. The boss had built a military base near Longwang Mountain in City B. It could be said that, apart from the old man, the boss had the final say in City B.

During this time, countless supplies had been delivered to the base through his care. He could conclude that something big was bound to happen in City B soon. The fact that his boss allowed his family into the base proved that he was already one of his own!

After seeing Secretary Lin leave, the man stood up, walked to the French window, and gazed into the distance. He was thinking, this time, Lu, Zheng, and ****** would regret it to death after learning the truth. According to the information he had received from Country M, the experimental subject was only a semi-finished product. Furthermore, when the three families transported the semi-finished experimental subject, something went wrong. Now, Country M is in an uproar! It's ridiculous that these three families still thought they had found a treasure.

He had been against the old man's decision, but he had insisted on going his own way. He probably hadn't anticipated how quickly things would develop, or how dire the situation would become. He had thought he could control it, but he'd been too complacent! The situation had far exceeded anyone's expectations, and now that it couldn't be reversed, he could only do his best. However, there were many things he wasn't prepared for.

The sky outside is so blue, what a pity...!

After Qin Qing's excitement wore off, she felt a wave of distress. The price of the jade Buddha was quite high, but her bank account was completely empty. She tried to buy a piece from a street vendor, which the owner described as a jade pendant. However, her palms felt not only hot but also completely cool.

She had no choice but to enter some seemingly high-end jewelry store. She found a jade bracelet priced in the tens of thousands, and only then did she sense a faint sense of coolness. It seemed this dimension was very picky about its tastes; it wouldn't eat anything that wasn't good. But now, with the apocalypse still ahead and the world still in chaos, she couldn't just brazenly rob someone. She quickly put down the jade bracelet and left the store.

Otherwise, like last time, she would accidentally suck away the coolness of the jade bracelet, and then the jade bracelet would turn into stone on the spot, and she would be caught as a monster.

It seems that my plan to expand the space will have to wait a few more days.

Time passed, and tomorrow would be December 20th. Qin Qing had already reorganized everything in her space. Besides the cages for chickens and ducks, there was also a large tank for fish. She had fenced off a clearing next to the tank for pigs, cows, and sheep. Next to the fence, she had piled up all sorts of seeds. Luckily, seeds were cheap, and she bought only a few, but a wide variety. She had spent all the two thousand yuan her uncle had given her on seeds and animals.

The plot of land was too small for planting, so she divided it into several smaller plots and planted a variety of vegetables. She sowed a little of every season. Fortunately, this space didn't have four seasons; once the seeds were planted, they would grow rapidly, ten times faster than outside.
