Tang Anan opened the bed curtain again and quietly looked at the two people with red eyes inside. She placed the crystal core in her hand in front of the window and said, "This is his last wish for you. You can come out now."
The woman choked up. The food at home was already limited to a few days. If they were trapped inside, they would eventually starve to death. She wanted to die with her husband, but the child was only three years old and didn't understand anything. How could she bear to leave him alone?
Wait a minute, send him to mom first...
She walked out holding the child, picked up the crystal core by the window, stared at it for a moment with tears in her eyes, and then looked up: "Thank you."
Things had come to this point, and they had no choice but to do this. She didn't know who to blame. They had done nothing wrong. The fault lay in this inexplicable outbreak of the virus, which had turned a good person into that state.
Her mother is in the countryside, which shouldn't fall so quickly, so the child must be sent there as soon as possible.
The woman looked at her fields and the unplanted seeds, sighed, took only the food, and said to them, "We are going back to the country. If you need the things at home, you can take them."
The journey was too long for her to take them with her, and she didn't know when she would be able to come back, so she might as well give them to someone in need.
"Thank you," Tang Anan said with a smile. Those things were exactly what she needed right now. She flicked her fingertips slightly, and a faint golden light shone between their brows. "As a reward, these two things are given to you. Remember, they can only withstand three zombie attacks at most. Be careful next time."
The woman reached out and touched her forehead in surprise. She realized what kind of amulet this was, and tears welled up in her eyes again. She quickly bowed and expressed her gratitude. Even the child in her arms stopped crying and curiously touched the space between her brows. It was sparkling and a little warm.
They left. Looking at their departing backs, Tang Anan sighed in her heart and couldn't help but become more determined to complete the task.
Let this world return to normal as soon as possible.
"Let's go and have a look." They walked to the fields and looked at the fruits and vegetables scattered all over the ground. For some reason, everything here was withered and there was no grass growing.
Tang Anan opened a bag of seeds and scanned them. The system determined they were dead and could not be planted. She frowned slightly, "What's going on?"
Yan Jili was also surprised. "Logically speaking, even if I left it alone for a few days, it wouldn't turn out like this."
"There must be a reason." She carefully observed the fruit and vegetable plants in the field and found that they were all covered with some liquid. She did not reach out to touch them directly, but took two pairs of medical gloves from the system space and handed the other pair to Tang Jili.
Tang Anan rubbed a layer of mucus on her face. Judging from the smell and appearance, it looked a bit like...zombie blood.
"Tsk, zombies are poisonous." She regretfully took off her gloves and tossed them into the trash. It looked like a wasted trip. Hopefully, not all the fruits and vegetables were infected.
"Uh." At this moment, a low groan came from behind them. They turned around and saw Chen Ruolan's eyelashes trembling, her fingers moving slightly, and a green light flashing in her palm.
The light slowly spread out, enveloping the entire countryside. In an instant, all the dead fruit and vegetable plants seemed to spring to life, stretching out their branches and leaves. A gentle breeze blew, and the swaying branches seemed to announce their rebirth.
Tang Anan's eyes flashed with surprise, not only because of the scene before her, but also because...
[Ding, congratulations to the host for finding another savior]
