Chapter 50 Search and Rescue
The survivors in Hexi Town were divided into three groups.
A group of people stayed in Hexi Town to take care of Lin Jiye and the other two.
There is already a health center and a pharmacy in the town. They don’t occupy a large area, but they have the most basic medical equipment and medicines.
But the medical staff of the health center died at the hands of zombies in the early stages of the disaster, and there was not a single person in the town with any medical knowledge.
Mo Fei had no choice but to look through the space and leave them a copy of the "Barefoot Doctor's Manual" and a few supernatural crystal cores, asking them to follow the instructions to treat the wounds of Lin Jiye and the others. The only requirement was not to let the injuries get worse.
The other two groups followed Mo Fei and drove all the way to rescue people.
Some of these people had received help from Lin Jiyuan, while others were really moved by Mo Fei's promise.
Mo Fei declared that if Lin Jiyuan could be rescued, he would provide five days of food for free to the rescuers.
There are both meat and vegetarian options, food and drinks, and the quality of the ingredients is guaranteed.
No one would doubt what Mo Fei said.
Five days, three meals a day, that means fifteen meals in five days.
In addition, Lin Jiyuan and his friends usually left a good impression on people, so almost everyone in the town joined the search team, except for those who were unable to do so due to health reasons.
They drove five cars in total, moving forward in the snow in a mighty manner.
The group drove to the small road where Lin Jiyuan and his friends had the accident.
The entire path collapsed and was covered with snow again overnight.
About ten meters away from the collapse is the Killer Willow.
Most of the branches of the killer willow were broken off, and it looked seriously damaged, no different from an ordinary willow tree.
But the giant zombie monster that Lin Jiye mentioned disappeared without a trace.
There were only some broken limbs scattered on the ground, which meant that the zombie was most likely not dead.
"Sister Mo, be careful." Lai Zi became a little worried when he saw Mo Fei wanted to go to the place where the Killing Willow was.
Mo Fei shook her head. She was wearing a pair of black boots and holding a trekking pole in her hand, exploring the way forward to avoid any collapsed pits ahead.
The killer willow is like a still tree sculpture, motionless in the wind and snow.
But blood continued to flow out from the roots of the tree, dyeing the snow underneath blood red.
It is unknown whether this blood is its own or from the animals and humans it hunts.
The rest of the people stood outside the attack range of the Killer Willow, watching Mo Fei walk towards the Killer Willow step by step.
They raised their weapons to prevent any accidents.
Mo Fei walked to the killer willow and squatted, thinking of an ancient poem called "planting flowers with care but they don't bloom, planting willows without care but they grow into shade", which is the poet's description of the willow's tenacity and its ability to adapt to the environment. The willow may seem slender and weak, but it has an extremely strong vitality. It will make all those who underestimate it pay the price.
The moment Mo Fei touched the trunk of the killer willow, all the remaining branches of the killer willow began to move again and attacked Mo Fei together.
Before the branches touched Mo Fei's clothes, a strange force uprooted the killer willow in the blink of an eye.
The red dot focused precisely on the killer willow.
A ruthless mechanical voice sounded: The intruder has been locked, and the countdown is now ten seconds. If the intruder does not leave after ten seconds, the intruder will be cleansed of life.
Ten, nine, eight..."
The killer willow has no legs, so it naturally cannot leave the 20-square-meter area of Mo Fei.
Ten seconds later, the Killer Willow completely turned into a bloody mist. At the same time, an emerald green supernatural crystal core as big as a human head fell to the ground.
Everyone around was stunned.
They had not seen Mo Fei use the laws of space to kill the monkey group.
Now seeing with his own eyes how Mo Fei could easily kill this mutant tree that killed countless people, it was an indescribable shock.
Everyone's eyes looking at Mo Fei changed instantly.
In the past, they thought Mo Fei was a nice person and that she cooked delicious food.
I don't think she has any fighting ability. She was able to reach Hexi Town alive, definitely relying on Lin Jiyuan and others.
But now they realized how strong the woman in front of them was.
Everyone was secretly thankful that they did not have any inappropriate thoughts about the Mo Fei family, otherwise their fate would not be much better than that of the Murderous Willow.
Such a large supernatural crystal core contained abundant energy and was flashing a dazzling green light in the snow, but no one dared to reach out to pick it up.
Mo Fei picked it up and apparently threw it into his backpack, but actually threw it into space.
The moment this energy crystal core entered the space, a reminder sound rang out:
——A-level supernatural crystal core detected, quality intact, pure energy. Space upgrade progress 33%. Please continue to work hard, experiencer No. 001.
Mo Fei was secretly happy. She had been working hard to set up a stall to exchange energy crystal cores with everyone because she knew that crystal cores were another condition for upgrading the space. However, after setting up the stall for so long, the crystal cores she got were only enough to increase the upgrade progress by 23%. She didn't expect that this part would increase it by 10%.
If you can get an A-grade supernatural crystal core every day, you will be able to reach the upgrade threshold quickly.
Unfortunately, there is no such good thing.
After dealing with the Killer Willow, Mo Fei led everyone to split into two groups and go down another road to search for people.
Mo Fei was just thinking about what happened just now when she heard Laizi running over to her enthusiastically and saying, "Sister Mo, the fire is ready."
"Well. Just heat up the food and eat it." Mo Fei said.
"You don't want to eat?" Laizi was stunned. He had already heated up Mo Fei's portion!
Everyone came out in a hurry. The food was provided by Mo Fei, a portion of fried noodles per person, packed in an iron box.
Just put the iron box by the fire to heat it up and you can eat it hot.
"I'm not hungry. You guys eat. I'm going to go look around over there. I'll call you in 10 minutes."
Mo Fei said as he walked in one direction.
The leper had no choice but to return to the fire alone.
Li Wei laughed cheerfully: "Brother Lai, you are just trying to please someone who doesn't like you."
"Go away, it's none of your business." Laizi sat down unhappily, opened the lid of the portion he had given to Mo Feire and started eating it himself.
Even though the fried noodles only took ten minutes to make, Mo Fei was still very careful.
She first boiled the round noodles until soft, then rinsed them with cold water and drained them. She then added various seasonings and mixed them well for later use. In particular, she added two more spoons of sugar to enhance the flavor. Finally, she added green peppers, shredded carrots, bean sprouts, ham and eggs and stir-fried them.
Before serving, a handful of chopped green onions were sprinkled on top. A pot of delicious fried noodles was ready.
In that world, Mo Fei worked as a chef in a five-star hotel for three years, and the food he always made was small but exquisite, with very small portions and very expensive prices.
I rarely make these down-to-earth meals anymore.
But she always felt that these foods were the most soothing to the Chinese people's stomachs.
A serving of fried noodles like this easily reminds people of the night market stalls before the natural disaster.
At that time, we would invite three or five friends to find a roadside stall, order a few skewers, a few bottles of Snow Beer, and a bowl of fried noodles, and each of us would pick up a piece of chopsticks and eat slowly.
Eating, drinking and talking, the pressure of life is dissolved in the long night accompanied by delicious food.
The iron box heated up in a short while.
Everyone opened the lid and started eating. The aroma of the fried noodles drifted away with the wind.
"Fuck...it smells so good that I feel dizzy." In a dark corner, someone covered his mouth to prevent saliva from flowing down.
He really couldn't bear it any longer and was about to rush over to rob them, but then he heard the group of people talking.
"How come Sister Mo's hands are so long? Even fried noodles are so delicious."
"That's right. I used to work the night shift, and I would order a midnight snack after work. I ordered fried noodles from many restaurants, but I never tasted anything better than this."
"Noodles are nothing. As long as we find Brother Yuan, Sister Mo said she would make us pork with preserved vegetables, egg yolk chicken wings, garlic ribs, beer duck..."
"Shut up, you're making me drool all over the place." Someone protested exaggeratedly.
Someone in the corner silently withdrew his foot and wiped the liquid secreted from the corner of his mouth in a shameless manner.
Listening to what these people said, that woman can cook all these delicious dishes?
He can still tell the difference between having one meal full and having every meal full.
Lin Jiyuan's body was stiff and he was tied up tightly, so he didn't dare to move.
But the fire in the cave did not go out, and he was moving slowly towards the fire.
If what that man said was true, his meridians were frozen, and leaning against the fire might be able to thaw them.
He has been trapped here for a day and a night, and he doesn't know how his brother and his two friends are doing.
After falling from the mountain, he fell into a coma thanks to his physical foundation trained over the years and his high level of supernatural powers, and his younger brother and the others would only be more seriously injured.
He must escape from here as soon as possible so that he can find Lin Jiye and the others.
But Lin Jiyuan didn't expect that the man would come back so soon.
The man acted in a hurry, as if someone was chasing him.
"Hey! I made a very kind decision."
When the man saw Lin Jiyuan moving disobediently, he did not get angry, but squatted in front of him and talked to him.
"?"
"I won't eat you anymore." The man continued, "But you have to promise me one thing."
"You say." Lin Jiyuan saw that the man looked confident and said calmly.
"I am your savior. You must take care of my meals. I need to eat delicious food every day. I love meat and not vegetables. As long as you fill me up, not only will I not eat you, I will also help you fight. You don't know how powerful I am." The man became more and more proud as he spoke.
If he had a tail, it would probably be sticking up to the top of the cave.
The more Lin Jiyuan looked at this man, the more he felt that he was not a human being.
He said, "Are you sure you want me to take care of your meals?"
He looked at the beef jerky on the ground that the man despised.
The man immediately understood what Lin Jiyuan meant: "Of course I don't want to eat what you cook. I want to eat what your friend cooks."
He rummaged around and pulled out a driver's license from Lin Jiyuan's backpack. "Your name is Lin Jiyuan, right?"
Lin Jiyuan sat up straight, frowned and looked at the person in front of him: "Is someone looking for me?"
From the words of the person in front of him, he had already guessed who was looking for him.
Mo Fei and his team continued to search for Lin Jiyuan's traces, but when they turned a corner, they saw a smiling face.
He was a man with fox eyes and a face as white as snow.
If it was before the natural disaster, with this face, it would have been more than enough for him to enter the entertainment industry and establish himself as the top male star in terms of appearance.
Mo Fei didn't know him, but he recognized Lin Jiyuan, who was standing stiffly next to him.
Found it!
Mo Fei's restless heart suddenly calmed down.
Almost as soon as they looked at each other, Mo Fei said the question that Lin Jiyuan was most concerned about: "Xiao Ye and the others are already in the town's health center. They are fine for now."
"Yeah." Lin Jiyuan nodded lightly and said thank you.
The person next to Lin Jiyuan had been ignored and immediately jumped over in dissatisfaction:
"Hello, hello, let me introduce myself. My name is Combustible Ice, and I'm your friend's savior. You don't have to thank me too much, just give me something delicious. Do you have any? I don't think so."
"..." Noisy was Mo Fei's first impression of combustible ice.
Besides, there is no one whose name is as strange as Methane hydrate.
Anyone with a little common sense knows that methane hydrate is the name of a new energy source distributed in the deep sea and permafrost zones on land.
Perhaps this person did not trust them and gave a false name.
Mo Fei automatically found a reason for this person.
"My beautiful lady with bob hair, do you have any delicious food with you?"
When Ran Bing saw that no one responded to his words, he twitched his nose and jumped around Mo Fei, smelling the scent.
"I have an extra portion." Wei Xuemin handed over a portion of still warm fried noodles.
His heart was bleeding. He had secretly hidden this and planned to have it as a midnight snack!
Forget it, Mo Fei will definitely make him something delicious because of his help!
Wei Xuemin knows how to throw out some ideas to inspire others to think.
"Oh my God! You are such a good person. No wonder you are the one I like the most among this group of people. What is your name, good man? Next time you go out, tell me my name and I will protect you." Ke Ranbing snatched it away immediately, without using chopsticks, he tilted his head back and poured it into his throat.
The way he devoured the food looked completely unmannerly, just like a wild beast.
"Your savior is quite unique." Mo Fei choked for a long time and said to Lin Jiyuan.
Lin Jiyuan's lips turned pale and he exhaled a breath of cold air: "Not bad."
"Please squeeze in, squeeze in, let me go up too." Methane hydrate is very familiar.
On the way back, he climbed directly into the car driven by Mo Fei and squeezed in even though there were already four grown men sitting in the back seat.
Mo Fei's hand on the steering wheel froze for a moment, then he turned around and asked Lin Jiyuan in the passenger seat: "Do you really want to take this person back?"
"Bring it." Lin Jiyuan's voice came.
When Mo Fei turned his head again, he found that Lin Jiyuan had fallen asleep leaning on the chair.
After searching for a whole day, it was almost dark.
Other people in the car also dozed off.
Only Combustible Ice was still very energetic. He sat behind Mo Fei, put his head close to Mo Fei and chattered:
"Ms. Bob, you haven't told me your name yet?"
"You made this fried noodles, right? Can you make other dishes? Let me tell you the names of the dishes: steamed lamb, steamed bear paws, steamed deer tails, roast duck, roast chicken, roast goose, braised pork, braised duck, sauce chicken, bacon, pine flowers, tripe..."
"Can you be quiet?" Mo Fei's face was distorted by this man's noise.
"Of course." Methane hydrate covered his mouth.
As the convoy drove away from this place, Methane Explosion looked out the rear window of the car toward the snow-covered mountains.
He moved his lips, and after a moment of daze, he suddenly said two words: "Bye."
