Chapter 45 The First Touch of Green in the Apocalypse
This afternoon,
The zombies sent out by Bai Li to investigate sent back intermittent and vague information.
Northwest, about five kilometers away,
There seems to be an area surrounded by a tall wall?
There were armed men patrolling the perimeter wall.
That should be the Hope Base.
Bai Li understood.
At this moment,
The calico cat is on guard outside for a walk.
Holding something in his mouth, he swiftly returned to the basement.
It placed something in front of Bai Li,
It was a crumpled piece of paper, covered in dust and stains.
Bai Li curiously used her claws to pull it open.
The paper is torn and yellowed.
But the words and pictures printed on it can still be barely recognized.
Apocalypse Survival Guide (Internal Published at Hope Base)
There are some small print below:
"... safe zone distribution... contribution point system... basic medical care... childcare..."
There is also a simple diagram showing a wall, houses, farmland and a small school.
Although simple, it is full of order and hope.
This should have flowed out from the Hope Base, or been left behind by someone who passed by before.
Bai Li's cat eyes lit up instantly!
She was overjoyed.
Carefully smoothing the paper with his claws,
Safe zone! Protected by a wall!
Contribution points? Should I exchange labor or supplies for food?
Basic medical care! If my little ancestor gets sick...
Childcare! A place dedicated to looking after children!
And there is school!
Although it is just a crude diagram,
But Bai Li seemed to see the scene of the little ancestor growing up safely and learning knowledge in there.
An indescribable excitement and longing surged in my heart.
Hope Base,
Better than she imagined!
This is no longer a vague concept.
But it is a visible and tangible goal!
She carefully kept this precious blueprint in a waterproof plastic file bag.
Hidden in the deepest part of the supplies.
This is their beacon for the future.
In the days that follow,
Bai Li's life is full of purpose and drive.
She continued to recuperate, waiting for her hair to grow back completely and regain her beauty.
While using his powerful mental power and ability to control zombies,
Begin to systematically re-plunder the ruins.
The goal is no longer scattered sealed food,
But more practical supplies.
tool!
In the collapsed hardware store, she controlled the zombies to find several relatively intact hammers, pliers, screwdrivers, and even a small box of screws and wires of various sizes.
Fabric and needle and thread!
In a corner of a forgotten tailor shop, the zombies were controlled to drag out several rolls of relatively clean canvas and cotton cloth, as well as several packages of needles and thread.
She planned to use these to make some more fitting and warmer clothes for her little ancestor.
seed!
In the ruins of a half-collapsed flower shop/seed shop, control the zombies to dig out several sealed packets of vegetable seeds from under the scattered shelves!
Tomato! Cucumber! Bok choy!
I don’t know if it can survive, but what if?
With land and sunshine, perhaps we can harvest fresh vegetables!
Every harvest enriches the supplies in the basement.
It also made Bai Li full of confidence in building a better home and going to the Hope Base in the future.
She even controls zombies.
In a location far away from the basement and close to a relatively open space,
Clumsily began to clear away the rubble and level the land.
She plans to open up a small experimental field.
Try to plant those precious seeds.
In the cardboard box,
Ling Xiao watched the cat mother busy and full of hope every day,
Look at the blueprint in the corner that is treasured by the cat mother.
A thoughtful expression appeared on the little face.
Hope Base...
Human gathering places...
Perhaps there, he can get more information about this apocalypse?
The look he gave Cat Mom was filled with warmth and determination.
Whatever the future holds,
He always stays with his cat mom.
Bai Li lay on the newly laid, relatively clean canvas mat.
The newly grown white fluff has a soft luster in the light.
She looked at the little ancestor in the cardboard box,
He was fiddling with the little doll he had asked the zombies to sew with cloth and cotton, with a look of disgust on his face.
Although his face was full of disgust, he still hugged her tightly in the end.
Look at the fat orange guy sleeping soundly in the corner holding half a sausage.
And Sanhua, who was guarding the entrance, was alert but a little lazy.
The basement is filled with all kinds of looted treasures.
Full of the breath of life.
Although in the ruins of the end of the world,
But at this moment,
In this small space,
Full of peace, hope and infinite longing for the future.
Bai Li narrowed her eyes in satisfaction.
A soft purring sound came from his throat.
tomorrow,
Another day full of hope.
Bai Li's experimental field plan progressed more smoothly than expected.
Under her meticulous mental control,
Three farmer zombies worked tirelessly to clear the rubble from the selected open space.
Their movements are stiff but efficient,
Rotting arms wield crude tools,
The larger concrete blocks were moved aside, and the smaller debris was gathered into a pile.
Fat Orange would occasionally stroll over,
Watching the zombies busy with curiosity,
Then he suddenly had an idea and dug a small hole in the ground with his claws.
It seems to imitate farming,
But more often they were chasing and biting the panicked beetles that were turned over.
The calico cat squatted on a relatively clean cement slab, looking around vigilantly and keeping watch.
Bai Li himself was not idle either.
She used the plastic buckets she found and purified water,
Carefully soak those precious vegetable seeds to germinate.
Although the steps were all vague memories and assumptions from her past life,
But it’s the end of the world, so we’d better try our best.
A few days later,
When a small piece of land is roughly leveled,
The zombies were under her mental command.
Clumsily digging a shallow trench,
Bai Li pinched the slightly white seeds with her claws.
Place them carefully one by one into the soil, and then gently cover them with a thin layer of soil.
Finally, pour over with precious purified water.
After doing all this,
Bai Li looked at the bare earth.
My heart is full of anticipation.
every day,
She would control the zombies to water the plants regularly.
From time to time, I would use my mental power to sense the situation under the soil.
Until the morning of the third day,
When she immersed her consciousness into the soil again,
She saw it!
A few extremely delicate green shoots with a hint of vitality,
It is stubbornly pushing away the soil particles pressing on it,
He poked his head out tremblingly!
Although it is so small that it can be almost ignored,
But that vivid green,
In this gray and dead ruin,
Like a morning star in the dark night,
Dazzling and full of hope!
"Meow!"
Bai Li was so excited that she almost jumped up.
She rushed back to the basement impatiently.
Use your head to gently wake up the little ancestor who is still sleeping.
Then she held his swaddling clothes in her mouth and brought him to the edge of the experimental field.
"Meow! Look!"
She pointed her claws at the faint patches of green.
